Introduction
War feasts upon death. Its greedy appetite carried away many lives on the battlefield, and soldiers must prepare to die at any time. Yet all these sacrifices can have its meanings and reasons with honor.
Feng Xiaogang
Feng Xiaogang was ushered into the spotlight by Dream Factory, Be There or Be Square and Sorry Baby, all of which were big hits during the Chinese New Year movie season. Since 1997, Feng's works have consistently topped the box-office and even surpassed major Western imports.

It claims to be the grandest premiere held in China, that of Chinese director Feng Xiaogang's war epic film "Assembly", which premiered in Beijing on Tuesday night.
