"Ten Thousand Miles Home" is based on a real incident. How many people were evacuated in one day from Libya? What year did it happen?

"Ten Thousand Miles Home" is based on a real event. The evacuation of 35,860 people from Libya took place in 2011. In 2011, Libya was in chaos. Many gangsters took advantage of the chaos and hijacked many local Libyan companies, so that the local Chinese compatriots in Libya faced huge personal safety threats. After our country learned about this incident, it launched a national-level response the next day, began to formulate an emergency evacuation plan, and implemented evacuation measures. The speed of evacuation this time shocked the whole world. This is the so-called China speed.

China’s speed is shocking

The speed that shocked the world this time was also shown in "The Journey Back", and there are many things in "The Journey Back" that are in reality Prototypes that can be found in China, such as the footage of diplomats being coerced into filming videos, are similar to what happened to Sun Bo and Lu Honglai, the staff of the Chinese Embassy in Kuwait, during the Gulf War. The characters and storyline in "A Long Journey Home" were approved by many front-line diplomatic and consular workers during the screening. They once said that they found their feelings at that time in this movie, and it felt good to be home.

Set many firsts, the situation is very critical

In this evacuation, China has set many firsts, such as the first large-scale use of civilian aircraft , rent foreign planes, foreign cruise ships. Because the situation was extremely urgent and happened suddenly, the situation was also very complicated. So we are faced with many situations, and there will be many unexpected surprises.

Cooperation among the three armed forces to ensure escort

Diplomats responsible for evacuation of overseas Chinese need particularly strong inner beliefs and particularly flexible methods to face various surprises , and they need enough courage, because they don’t know what dangerous situations they will face, so they are particularly great. Combining wisdom and courage, in order to ensure the smooth progress of this evacuation and to ensure the safety of compatriots, this is the first time that the navy, land and air forces have been mobilized to cooperate to escort the safety and security of the evacuated overseas Chinese.
