Yiye, it’s been so long since we met, how have you been?
Recently, I keep dreaming of returning to the 'Thirty-three Acres of Land', everyone is there: Gao Liang, Nan Zheng, Old Class Leader... waiting for me to gather and return to the team...
There are many things I want to say, but I don’t know where to start...

At first, I was moved by your persistence and responsibility, but I also had many concerns: would your actions and decisions at that time be accepted by everyone now? How can I present and convey your mission, pursuit, and spiritual aspirations to everyone? So I discussed and explored with the director time and time again. I gradually realized that the you in front of me is like a mountain, unyielding no matter how the wind blows and the rain falls. It’s as if all the storms will only become nourishment for the 'ancient pines and cypress' on the mountain.

What you do has never been a multiple-choice question. 'Being a soldier is my destiny', 'I have to do the right thing', 'Don’t be a hero, be a winner' ... none of these allowed you to choose, but were directly engraved into your life. Therefore, everything becomes more stringent for you. But these have not turned you into a cold, unfeeling machine that never makes mistakes. On the contrary, because of your blood, passion, and sincerity, every adversity you face only strengthens you and fills you with power. Your extraordinary sensitivity and stubbornness allow you to identify problems promptly and find all possible ways to solve them. All of this makes you a complex and accommodating being...

'Not needing to be obsessed with perfection, no matter what, they are you, but they are not enough to encompass you.' This is a sentence I wrote when we wrapped up. The director once told me: 'If Gu Yiye is like a seabird soaring in the wind, ungrounded, he will eventually meet someone who can catch him, someone who can soar and also be grounded.' Looking at it now, it’s precisely because of these struggles, sacrifices, and contradictions that I admire you even more. The arrangements of fate really do have their reasons, don’t they?

I see you, I see thousands and thousands of soldiers like you. Although everyone’s growth experiences are different, when facing a task, they all confidently salute and shout: 'Guaranteed to complete the task!' A passionate heart forges the military soul, dedicating oneself to the country and protecting the land. I am honored to borrow half of your life to experience the military years of Ace Troops.
