It was last Monday, and the weather in Beijing was as good as it is today, so the echelons in the air flew through in accordance with the official program. Since that day, the weather in Beijing has been getting worse and worse, and it's been gray all day. There was no wind, no clouds to be seen, it just felt as if a big gray pot lid was being held over your head. Until last night, the weather was still the same, with no sign of change. All the experts involved in the National Day celebrations and parade weather protection are not confident. They said: the weather on October 1 will basically have no effect on the parade and will not affect the takeoff of the aircraft, but in the afternoon the Tiananmen area will be cloudy and clear. It seems that the weather forecast is really the most inaccurate science. No one thought that God had played a joke on us. Last night there was a little bit of unremarkable rain in Beijing, which didn't affect the gathering of troops for the parade. So this morning the clouds began to clear, and at about 6 o'clock, I was on my balcony looking to the east, and a fiery red sun was rising in the haze, and the good weather was here.
The weather is getting better and better, and it's the best weather in Beijing in the fall. The azure sky, some thin white clouds like silk, warm autumn wind, warm sunshine. I never thought that the weather could get better without anyone expecting it. At this time, all the colors of Tiananmen Square looked more vivid against the blue sky. Looking towards the northwest of Tiananmen Square, the western mountains were clearly visible in the distance, with a visibility of no less than 20 kilometers. Overlooking from the sky, with Tiananmen Square as the center, the whole city of Beijing is clear as a picture.
The National Day celebrations began, and from seven o'clock at home to watch the live TV broadcast. The overall feeling is still good, watching the parade, the heart is still very excited and emotional. As a soldier, in the army may serve a lifetime, but also may only be a few short years. At such a special moment, to carry out a special task, in the ranks of their own troops, by the Chairman of the Military Commission's review, is indeed an extremely honorable thing. Accompanied by the "Chinese People's Liberation Army Army Song", "Parade March", "Anti-Japanese Military University Song", "People's Army Loyal to the Party" and "Let's Go! "and "We Soldiers", the eyes of every officer and soldier on parade moved along with the President's figure, and the slogans shook the sky and the earth with a powerful and unforgettable sound. Because of the overall control of the celebration time, so the troops participating in the parade are as streamlined as possible, the President's car also ran fast, so the feeling of watching is not enjoyable. In addition there is a little unsatisfied, is now our uniforms are too lack of military, military and professional personality, it looks as if it is a troop.
Watching the mass parade was very exciting, and I felt hot in my heart. Look at the expression of the guests on the observation platform is also the same, everyone and the military band sang loudly, is from the heart. I think this celebration has really served to unite people's hearts and lift their spirits. There were also many designs that were very creative, such as the playing of the voices of the speeches of the four generations of leaders. There were also many nostalgic classic images and old songs that condensed the history of **** and the country's difficult development. That's why I was so infected by the emotion of the scene when I watched the mass procession that I almost burst into tears a few times.
Back to talk about the ceremony, the overall feeling is not as good as 99 years, even worse than 84 years. Why? I see the following reasons:
First, the foot squad was reduced. Especially the infantry, which is the main branch of our army, is the soul of the army, but also the most imposing branch of the army, but unfortunately only one squad. And all squads have switched to short assault rifles, no bayonets, always holding the gun marching, people seem to be very formal. There is also the level of training of the squads, which has been reported so much in the media before, but today it seems that there is still a problem with the swinging and placement of the arms in the front march. In front of the Army's dark-colored uniforms, white gloves not in place is particularly conspicuous, which is the biggest gap with the last parade.
Second, the problem of 07-style uniforms. Spring and fall regular clothing fabrics and workmanship is too board, not close to the body and not soft, step action to do up clothing some of the feeling of dragging the belt. If you change to use thin fabric regular clothes is good. Surprisingly, the evaluation of the female militia squad was unanimously high, that is, better than the women's squad. 07 camouflage uniforms also have problems, mainly because the color is too dull, the style is unique, almost impossible to see the difference between the squads. The new style helmets worn by many squads also did not work well with the shape of their heads and did not have the killer look of the old style steel helmets. The helmet is on the large side, the whole head is wrapped up by the helmet, not conducive to the use of the afterglow of the eyes to mark the alignment of the formation, so the horizontal line is not walking very neatly. The last parade no matter from which angle, the platoon is a straight line, simply absolute.
Third, today's weather is too good, too much sunshine. The camera shoots from west to east against the sunlight, people and equipment are backlit, and the colors of the team and equipment are dark and black, which affects the visual effect of watching.
Fourth, the CCTV guide level problem. Due to the poor selection of camera position and angle, coupled with the understanding of the framing is not professional enough, so did not deal with the relationship between the full picture and details in the parade. There is also the fact that the vehicle convoy is running very fast, and many precious moments are not seen. In today's online CCTV forum questionnaire survey, people who think the broadcast is very bad and bad, accounted for more than 90 percent. Is the audience too picky? After all, once every 10 years ah, everyone's expectations are also very high. It's a good thing there are still documentary films from the Bayi Film Studio to watch, and then we'll see what the military's professional cameramen have created.
Flawed. The festival came to a close with a big evening gala, admiring Beijing's local and military organizational skills for large-scale events are really strong. By the way, the light cube at night is a small miracle, the image change is computer-controlled, or human-operated, I have not yet figured out. Ten years a big celebration, ten years the development of science and technology can also take a huge step forward, so we can see such a high performance.
