The value of this hard work is clear. By theendof the movie，China sadvancedairforce isable to outwit and speed past its opponents， usingtheir newly developed jets to show their newfoundpower.

The J-20 fighter jet， representing the most ad-vancedtechnologicalachievementsof China，hasbeenasuperstarsinceitwasfirstseenflyingin2016. Born to Fly provides everyone with a 360-de-gree ultra-close view of the J- 20. This is the firstmovie in history to feature a real J- 20 aircraft. Asthe movie follows the test pilot s view， the audi-ence is given a look at this national treasure fromall angles. The beauty of J-20 presented in the mov-ie arouses patriotism among the Chinese audience.

The main character s will-ingness to use his engineering and English skills tolearn about aircraft from all over the world standsout as an inspirational part of the movie.

今年五月，準(zhǔn)備好見證我國空軍事業(yè)的蓬勃發(fā)展吧！

4 月 28 日，電影《長空之王》全國上映。影片講述一群空軍飛行員測試中國最新型戰(zhàn)機(jī)的故事。飛行員必須首先經(jīng)過嚴(yán)苛的測試選拔，考驗(yàn)其是否有能力參與到危險(xiǎn)的戰(zhàn)機(jī)測試中。一旦通過遴選，飛行員們將直面測試技術(shù)中涉及的諸多風(fēng)險(xiǎn)，對(duì)新型戰(zhàn)機(jī)進(jìn)行極限測試。

艱辛的試飛員工作的價(jià)值顯而易見。在影片結(jié)尾，先進(jìn)的中國空軍得以在競速中超越對(duì)手并取得智勝，飛行員們駕駛著新研發(fā)出的噴氣式飛機(jī)，展示其最新的實(shí)力。

殲-20 戰(zhàn)斗機(jī)是中國最先進(jìn)技術(shù)成果的代表之一，自 2016年首次亮相以來一直是“超級(jí)明星”。電影《長空之王》為大家提供了一次 360度超近距離觀賞殲-20 的機(jī)會(huì)，這是史上首次有電影對(duì)殲-20進(jìn)行實(shí)景拍攝。跟隨著電影中試飛員的視角，觀眾們可以從各個(gè)角度欣賞這一“國寶”。影片拍出了殲-20 的威武迷人，也喚起了中國觀眾的愛國之情。

在大銀幕上，我們還能看到幾代飛行員之間的差異。新時(shí)代的年輕飛行員們與老一輩同樣無懼無畏，但同時(shí)他們對(duì)飛機(jī)技術(shù)有著更深理解。影片主人公希望發(fā)揮自己的技術(shù)和英語技能，去研習(xí)來自世界各地的飛機(jī)，這些都是片中鼓舞人心的情節(jié)。
