Xin Bai Qing

In 1995, one year before strict laws about gun ownership swept across China, the otherwise calm border town of Mangya is hit with a sudden ambush. Upon breaking out of prison, notorious bandit leader Bei Shan (Xin Bai Qing) stormed the town in search of his buried loot, aided by dozens more outlaws who sought money and power, all armed with guns of their own. Through sheer numbers, Bei Shan and the bandits terrorize the town, but the loose faction soon begins infighting, creating an even more dangerous situation. Unfortunately for Mangya, police officer Xia Ran (Bai Ke) has only two other officers and one gun to ward off the invasion, and a looming sandstorm means that there's no way that he can call for reinforcements. Can Xia Ran find a way to ward off Bei Shan and save the town, or will it fall to the bandits?

In 1937, during the Second Sino-Japanese War, Lieutenant Colonel Xie Jin Yuan (Du Chun) leads 452 young officers and soldiers of the 88th Division in a desperate last stand at the Sihang Warehouse against the overwhelming Japanese army. Facing nearly 20,000 enemy troops, these brave soldiers know their mission is hopeless but choose to fight with extraordinary courage. For four critical days, they resist the relentless Japanese assault, buying crucial time for the rest of the Chinese army to retreat. Though they ultimately lose the battle, their heroic sacrifice becomes a powerful symbol of resistance and national pride. This remarkable true story showcases the extraordinary bravery of soldiers who chose honor and duty over certain defeat. "The Eight Hundred" is a 2020 historical war film directed by Guan Hu that commemorates these unsung heroes of the Chinese resistance.
