Revisiting the glorious years and carrying forward the red heritage.
Revisiting those glorious years and carrying forward the red legacy. On February 8, the ticketing counter at China Film Digital Cinema welcomed a special group of moviegoers. Pengfei Group brought more than a hundred Party members, cadres, and employees to watch the patriotic film “The Battle at Lake Changjin: Watergate Bridge.” This event also marked a unique way for the administrative system, following the Pengfei Spirit Mobilization Conference, to inspire in everyone a deep sense of patriotism and loyalty to the enterprise.
“The battle will be extremely arduous, but we must strive for victory.” — From the film “The Battle at Lake Changjin: Water Gate Bridge”
“The Battle at Lake Changjin II: Water Gate Bridge” is set against the backdrop of the Chinese People’s Volunteer Army’s Ninth Corps, specifically the Seventh Company, which carried out a daring infiltration mission to destroy the Water Gate Bridge—the critical crossing that U.S. Marine 1st Division troops were forced to pass through on their retreat during the War to Resist U.S. Aggression and Aid Korea. The film tells the moving story of how these volunteer soldiers endured unimaginable hardships—severe hunger, frostbite, scorching heat, and relentless bombardment—and made tremendous sacrifices to secure victory.
Sitting in the cinema, time seems to fly by, for each soldier’s sacrifice unfolds in a single instant of artillery fire; yet it also feels agonizingly slow, as every frame is a blossoming of the military spirit.
“The 7th Company was supposed to have 157 men, but only one showed up,” a line that brings tears to the eyes; the complete sacrifice of the 9th Company is even more heart-wrenching. Despite the vast disparity in weaponry between the two sides, our fallen heroes still forged a new spiritual Great Wall with nothing but their bare bodies.
The harder the battle, the more we must fight! The patriotic spirit we draw from films must be put into practice by loving our company and our work, contributing our wisdom and strength with our youth and sweat to ensure Pengfei’s continued prosperity—growing stronger day by day and thriving year after year.
This collective film‑watching event was organized to help everyone translate the spirit of our revolutionary forebears—characterized by their willingness to make sacrifices and dedicate themselves—to their daily work, thereby exemplifying the vanguard role of Party members and working together toward our core objectives and professional tasks.
— Deputy Director of the Party and Mass Work Office, Wu Yanling
As a veteran, watching this film has deeply instilled in me a profound sense of patriotism, camaraderie, and brotherly bonds. Moving forward, I will carry this spirit with me as I continue to safeguard our group company and defend our motherland.
— Zhang Jinke, Patrol Officer at the Security Department Headquarters
There is no enemy we cannot defeat, no difficulty we cannot overcome. I believe this spirit is strikingly similar and deeply consistent with the Pengfei Spirit. The Pengfei Spirit guides us in how we conduct ourselves and carry out our work, while the revolutionary spirit inspires us to strive tirelessly to grow stronger, never giving up until we achieve our dreams and goals.
— Li Haigang, Section Chief of the Conference Affairs Section, Secretariat Center
As the film draws to a close, all Pengfei employees rise in solemn silence, paying tribute to the revolutionary martyrs who gave their lives defending the motherland. Snowflakes swirl and fall, evoking the faces of those soldiers as the narrative gently unfolds the turmoil of that year—brave charges, steadfast defense of our homeland, and the enduring legacy of our people’s heroes!
