This color educational/promotional film is about the Bofors 10.5 cm Field Howitzer L/28. The Internet has scant information on the L/28, but it was apparently designed for rapid movement and positioning, and the narrator notes that it was intended to be positioned quickly so as to hold off a paratroop or partisan type attack. Whereas prior to WWII Bofors had developed a 10.5 cm howitzer (also known as the Model 1924), this model appears to be different and may have never gone into volume...

As a way of thinking and cognition, metaphor not only exists in language modality, but also exists in non-linguistic modality such as image, voice and gesture which form multimodal discourses by their interactions. Based on the theory of multimodal metaphor, this paper interprets the cognitive construction of the promo film of the 2025 World Games “Gather in Chengdu, Cheer the World on”, in which it analyzes the urban image and provides a new perspective for the analysis of urban image.
