Linking "Storm" from a distance to witness the feelings of the rural revitalization and explosion era
As a key tribute film for the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Party, Nine Sisters not only recorded the pace of the times when party member cadres at the grassroots level in Northeast China made every effort to build a new countryside, but also showed the new thinking of the country to help rural revitalization with the digital economy. The film was filmed in the countryside of Yabuli Town, Harbin, Heilongjiang Province, the first area of China land reform, and this is also the story place of writer Zhou Libo’s novel Storm and the classic old film of the same name. According to Wei Qing, the general director, the film "Nine Sisters" not only inherited part of the historical background and context of the film "Storm", but also continued part of the relationship between characters.

The plot of live broadcast with goods in the movie also came into reality. A person in charge of the company even said humorously after watching the movie: "After watching the movie, I gained a lot of knowledge, which is very enlightening for the future implementation of the promotion plan of live broadcast with goods of our products on the e-commerce platform, and will definitely avoid traps and improve professionalism."
