If you ask which army is the most famous in China, the officers and soldiers in our army will definitely have different opinions. Some people would say Liu Laozhuang Company, Jintangqiao Company, Yang Gensi Company, Nanjing Road Hao Eighth Company... Others would think it was Snow Leopard Commando, Falcon Commando, etc. These are all famous units. But if you want to ask which is the most "hot" troop at the moment, I think the airborne Thor Commando is one of them. Since "Real Men: Air Force" was broadcast on Hunan Satellite TV, the Thor Commandos have become known to the audience, and the mysteries of the airborne troops and special forces have been taken off one by one.

On January 19, 2017, "Real Men·Air Force" came to a perfect conclusion. 8 stars went deep into the front-line troops to experience the real life in the military camp, which not only increased the popularity, but also made the Thor Commandos countless fans.

The Thor Commando suddenly became popular, even more popular than when it won the international championship. It became popular both inside and outside the military. Now the Internet calls it the ace unit of the Air Force, and there is a lot of praise. Come.

In the all-media era, military propaganda needs to rely on the media

Some people always criticize: "In "Real Men", a group of people who have nothing to do with anything are found. Actors with military characteristics, let alone special forces, have infiltrated into the special forces. Although they usually act like they do, they can't perform the spirit and soul of a Thor commando."

We soldiers also have parents and family members. Relatives and friends, on the premise of performing their duties and completing good tasks, why can't they have some rest time, turn national defense education into entertainment, and turn stars into soldiers and soldiers into stars?

The author went home on leave during the broadcast of the program and served for eight years. None of his family, relatives or friends knew where the army was. It wasn't until I watched this program that I gradually realized that I had been in the Thor Commandos, and I strongly support serving with peace of mind in such an excellent unit. This time, Hunan Satellite TV teamed up with the People's Liberation Army Air Force Art Center to create the program "Real Man" into a "phenomenal" work with both ratings and word-of-mouth success. It has become the most intuitive and effective national defense education course in an entertaining and entertaining way. It is also the most appealing recruitment propaganda film. In particular, the addition of new media represented by the Internet has enabled publicity issues to quickly ferment among the audience. While building a three-dimensional and all-round publicity network, it has pushed the audience's attention to the extreme.

This enlightens us that it is a good way to do a good job in military propaganda and rely on the media. Although the military also has media and creative personnel, its influence is generally limited. Leveraging local media groups, especially powerful media, can not only save publicity costs, but also bring huge publicity benefits.

A real special operations team member cannot be "acted"

In the special topic on December 22 last year At the seminar, Gao Changli, director of the Publicity Department of the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television, praised "Real Man" as an "interesting and meaningful" program and said that it will become one of the models for the State Administration of Press, Publication, Radio, Film and Television to guide and regulate reality shows.

But some people also said: "A few actors who have never served in the military can actually complete military subjects such as helicopter rappelling and shooting in just one day of training. Then it is too easy for you special forces to become Is that right? Apart from bringing joy to the audience, what does a few actors have to do with the special forces after filming together? , may have a lot of rouge flavor.”

In fact, we seem to think that these criticisms are also people’s concern for our troops. After all, we hope that our soldiers will not be entertained by TV programs. In fact, the training of the artists that the audience saw was indeed real. The training subjects they were able to complete were only allowed to "experience" them while ensuring safety.

After all, they are not members of the Thor Commandos. The real members of the Thor Commandos are selected through layers of selection before joining the team. How can they reach the level of going to the battlefield to kill enemies in a short while?

The training scenes that the audience can see are also the most basic of Thor's daily training, and the program team also has to take into account the physical condition of the artists, and many training subjects are also classified due to confidentiality reasons. It cannot be fully demonstrated that the team members can develop their excellent qualities through hard work day after day and year after year. You must know that representing the entire army in the "Golden Eagle-2015" International Scout Competition organized in Kazakhstan, achieving first place among foreign teams cannot be obtained by "acting", and the team members who won the championship are also "acting" by ordinary people. Not coming out.

Pay attention to talent cultivation, everyone is a real man

Thor Commando is the first team in the filming of "Real Men" At this station, although the officers and soldiers in the unit, large and small, have participated in many TV media programs and major reporting and performance tasks, this is the first time they have been tasked with filming a reality TV show.

I received a notice from the column team confirming that this unit was selected as the filming location at the end of July 2016. At that time, the troops were conducting base-based combat training in the wild and were about to rush to the station to carry out flood fighting and rescue operations.

Since filming requires many squad leaders and instructors, military quality, image, temperament, and expression ability are all aspects that need to be considered. In early August, a preliminary team of about ten people from the program team came to the field station to select instructors. The squad leaders who were finally selected were all chosen accidentally by the program team, and none of them were forcibly recommended by the army. Squadron leader Liu Jinyi was selected because at that time, after the team received the flood fighting and rescue mission, as the squadron leader, he was giving the order to move in. With his first impression of being upright and not angry, he was instantly photographed by the director; Wang Wei, who looked shy, seemed to be down-to-earth, enthusiastic and modest when chatting with the director team. His "warm man" temperament came from within, so he was chosen. Yang Yuan was chosen because the weather was hot at the time and the team members were returning from training. When he went to rest in the tent, he just happened to take off his soaked clothes. His muscles made the directors immediately agree that this was the image of a "tough guy monitor".

Facts have proved that these squad leaders and instructors are indeed good. They not only successfully completed the shooting task, but also demonstrated the quality and style of the soldiers through the shooting, which was unanimously praised. After the recording of the program, the three of them followed the team to participate in various tasks, stood on duty, trained for combat readiness, and returned to their true colors.

The powerful public opinion effect caused by the broadcast of the program not only exploded on the eight celebrities, but also quickly focused on the Thor Commandos who participated in the show. At a time when "little fresh meat" and "flowery boys" are prevalent on the screen, the officers and soldiers of the Thor Commando who participated in the show were popular for their positive energy and quickly became well-known "celebrities". Moreover, not just one or two, but batches of officers and soldiers received very high attention, which fully shows that the members of our Thor Commandos are very good.

Used in emergencies and prepared in peacetime, everyone is a real man, which also proves that the Thor Commandos have a rich reserve of talents. Moreover, the Thor Commandos have long adhered to the path of cultivating first and then using, and cultivating while using, actively improving learning conditions, building a display platform, pure employment culture, highlighting personal strengths, and cultivating talents. They need to create a culture that influences, educates, and educates people. A good environment for educating people has created a gratifying situation in which talents emerge in large numbers and people are prosperous, and more outstanding talents are reserved for the army to carry out the mission of "being able to fight and win wars".

The Thor Commandos, which means "thundering, mighty heavenly soldiers", are an elite force of special operations airborne troops that shoulder the sacred mission and fight wherever the motherland and people need it. The airborne troops are known as a strategic knife that is always ready to penetrate into the heart of the enemy. The "Thor" commando team is the tip of this sharp knife. It is a "small, flexible, multi-functional" new combat force formed by the airborne troops.

In accordance with the strict training requirements of "reaching all areas, seizing all opportunities, overcoming all difficulties, and defeating all opponents", 5 types of aircraft, 8 types of umbrellas, and 15 airborne subjects have been trained. They have long, medium and short-range emergency mobile reconnaissance combat capabilities. The "Thor" commando team requires all team members to be proficient in parachuting skills of all aircraft types and parachute types, and have the ability to jump in any area and under any weather conditions. It is the only team in the army that conducts parachute parachuting in an organized manner. commando.

The current rise in fame is not accidental, but inevitable. The Thor Commando is by no means known to the audience only through entertainment programs. You may only see the glory of the Thor Commando on the screen, but in fact it is a mighty force that has made great achievements in combat. It has participated in many major exercises and drills; carried out non-war military operations such as Wenchuan earthquake relief, aerial security for the Olympic Games and World Expo, and resident flood fighting and rescue operations; and has completed foreign-related joint exercises such as the Air Force's "Hunter" training and the Shenyang-2012 China-Belarus joint training. Joint training.

This is not a force that is good at performing, but a force that is good at fighting; in 2013, it represented the Air Force in the military special forces competition and won five gold medals and one silver medal; in 2015 In 2015, he represented the entire army in the "Golden Eagle-2015" international scout competition organized in Kazakhstan and won the first place among foreign participating teams.

"Reach all areas, seize all opportunities, and overcome." "Overcoming all difficulties and defeating all opponents" is the unchanging purpose.

How can it be difficult for the Thor Commando to live up to its reputation? The Thor Commando will definitely live up to its reputation!
