From a historical perspective, this film has taught us a profound lesson! The film first narrates that a country's backwardness will lead to aggression from other countries, and that if a country wants to stand tall in the world, it must be strong. It can be seen from the visit to Japan after the Beiyang Fleet bought a heavy-armored ship that powerful military power can deter the enemy. Second, it shows that no matter how strong a country is, corruption will destroy everything. This is illustrated by Cixi's misappropriation of fleet military funds for a birthday party, to two heavy armored ships throwing coins into a third high-explosive bomb, and later, when reinforcements believed rumors of deserters and left the defense zone. point! Even if your military can deter the enemy, corruption of the system and officials will still make a strong country weak! The third point is that she did not think about danger in times of peace and did not purchase new warships for 7 years. Because Cixi believed that there was no need to spend money to purchase warships when there was no war, which later caused the Beiyang Fleet to suffer heavy losses. Fourth, never underestimate your enemy, even if its territory is only as big as one of your own provinces! Finally, I think this film reflects the current situation of the country very well! If we think about it carefully, if our country continues to be so corrupt, the Sino-Japanese War of 1898-1898 will happen again!

But in terms of movie effects, I definitely think this movie is pretty bad! This phenomenon is common in Chinese movies. Any movie that claims to cost tens of millions will make you want to vomit when you watch it. Of course, except for historical movies, because no matter how bad the filming is, it will still be better than reading the book.

Take this movie as an example, 60 to 70 million? It shouldn’t have cost so much! In China, a movie with an investment of tens of millions is amazing! But compare it with the old and American movies (I am not pro-American, the old and American movies are indeed very good in terms of movie effects). The investment in this film is equivalent to about 10 million U.S. dollars, but I am sure that if it were replaced by old and American movies, Meilai’s movie effects are definitely much better than this one!

Don’t believe any claims about how much money Chinese movies make. For example, there was a movie that claimed to have invested 100 million, but later it was confirmed that the investment was only a few million, because the film was really rubbish. Well, no one believes it is 100 million. There is also a certain cartoon that claims to be the result of an investment of more than 10 million, but the effect is not as good as that of Blue Cat. As for where the money went, everyone in China knows it.
