Reply to comment by WallyMcBeetus in China calls for cease-fire in Ukraine, peace talks by 04_STI
The United Nations government voted to ask the United States to lift sanctions against Cuba.
Nearly 200 countries around the world were in favor, with only the United States government and Israel opposed.
However, the United States government is the good guy.
The West can invite other countries to help them, but they can't and aren't in a position to force other countries to help them (at a cost).
"You must help me (pay the price for me) or you will be sanctioned"
Is this the face of a good man for the US to tell the world?
Without China, the U.S. government would be shitting on the heads of all countries, even on the heads of Americans.

I don't think it's quite right that the C919 is actually an airliner that can carry about 160 people.
What is mentioned here is obviously a new aircraft, and even in mainland China, we are not informed about this aircraft for the time being.

I didn't think they would hire a software engineer as an extra, but China is not a country of immigrants and doing so can only be described as a no-brainer. Wu Jing is the most expensive actor in China, if you have quite a few scenes with him, you may have a lot of fame after "Wandering Earth 2" hahaha, (like mike Sui in the first one?)

As a mainland Chinese, it feels interesting to see foreign actors writing about what it's like to work for them.
I guess the Wandering Earth experience would be normal, but Lake Nagatsu is a war film, which does require some training, and they should reasonably pay you more (but the pay often depends on the film budget rather than the work you do).
I'm curious if you'll watch the movie you're starring in? How do you rate your acting?
