Chapter 601: Don't talk about martial arts!
Many people have heard that Japanese politicians have a bad habit of worshipping ghosts.
Those shrines in Japan, especially those in the most famous places, are especially popular with Japanese politicians, and there are benefits after worshipping.
As for this benefit, most of us in China want to be scolded, but in Japan, it is true that we can get what these politicians want most...... Ballot paper.
However, many of us Chinese do not know that Shintaro Ishihara also worships ghosts, but in addition to that special place, he also worships one.
It's his brother.
Let's put it this way, whenever the election time comes, the governor of Tokyo will go to his brother.
Yujiro Ishihara is really a big star, and besides, what age are the people who liked him in his time?
These people are the main voters.
The Governor of Tokyo is a smart man, and this time he set up another bureau that he himself was very satisfied with.
Higashiki can't think of this at all now, in his opinion, he came to Japan just to be able to go to Iwo Jima, and now he met Yuki Kusano, and the other party mentioned the problem of the script, so let's talk about it.
Actually, about the script, Higashikito has always wanted to ask Yuki Kusano, and now is an opportunity, but when Higashikito sees Yuki Kusano's gaze, he has a strange feeling.
It's as if this young man, he knows what to expect!
Well?
Why is this happening?
However, Dong Mu is an old cowboy, even if he sees this, he will still continue to think about it, this is the stubbornness of the old cowboy.
"Director Kusano, I'm very interested in one thing, that is, why did you write this Kuribayashi Tadamichi, and besides, do you want to write it like that?"
If you haven't read the script, you will definitely be confused after listening to this question, but Shintaro Ishihara is different, he was a literati before a politician, and he was still a very powerful literati, and he had a bad premonition after hearing it.
Yuki Kusano was very simple, he smiled slightly, "Is there anything wrong with me writing this? Kuribayashi Tadamichi and his subordinates forced ordinary people to come to the front of the two armies, and were killed by the American army, or they committed suicide, and wrote this out, is there anything wrong with this?"
This...
The first thing that was very shocked by Yuki Kusano's words was Higashiki, the old cowboy who never expected the young Japanese director in front of him to say this.
Because before, he obviously left a leeway, to put it simply, the current Shintaro Ishihara didn't know the content of Yuki Kusano's script, and Higashiki himself didn't say it, so he nodded Kuribayashi Tadamichi so vaguely.
It must be said that because this is a point that Higashiki values very much, he originally just wanted to shoot the story of that flag, but later found out that the character of Tadamichi Kuribayashi also has a story, especially Yuki Kusano's script also wrote this character, he felt very good and wanted to shoot it.
So, it is impossible not to come out.
But he never expected Yuki Kusano to be so bold and direct!
Higashiki is an old cowboy, but he's not stupid, he knows who Shintaro Ishihara is.
Really!
"What? Kusano-san, how can you write so about the glorious general of our Great Japanese Empire?"
Shintaro Ishihara was also completely shocked, but the angle of his shock was completely different from that of Higashiki.
He couldn't believe that this guy Yuki Kusano actually wrote this fake Japanese 'hero'!
Anyway, those who were enshrined in that place were all heroes in his eyes.
What about Yuki Kusano?
"Oh, Ishihara-san, is there anything wrong with me writing that?" the superintendent frowned, his face serious.
If an acquaintance sees Yuki Kusano's expression, such as Masakazu Tanaka, he will definitely know that Yuki Kusano is pretending to be stupid.
But after pretending to be stupid, then ......
How did Shintaro Ishihara know this, he was now like a bull who had been stimulated to the point of red eyes, "Kusano-san! How can you write this? This is an insult to the Japanese Empire! Don't you understand? Moreover, this General Kuribayashi Tadamichi, I have also heard of his deeds, isn't there a book called "The Family Letter of General Tamarashi"? Why don't you use this work as a model?"
Make somebody's blood boil!
When a person is angry, just like Shintaro Ishihara now, it is obvious that Yuki Kusano has touched some kind of bottom line of this old guy.
However, Yuki Kusano laughed, "I've seen that work, and that's why I wrote it like this." ”
This...
"What?!" the governor of Tokyo was furious, and he even ...... No, I'm afraid I'm not as good as this young man in terms of force value, so let's pat the table and do a literary fight.
The sound of popping scared the mother Sang on the side and couldn't move, but fortunately, there was an elf who pulled the mother Sang away.
The restaurant is a small room, and generally speaking, it is a shoji door to make a grid, so it is very simple, and today there is a big man like the governor of Tokyo, so there are no other guests near this small room.
It seems that this is the right thing to do, after all, what they talk about, it is better not to be passed on.
Higashiki slapped the table, and he frowned, but before he could say anything, the governor of Tokyo began to attack.
"Kusano-san! You are a Japanese overseer with an international reputation, what should you do? You should promote for the sake of the Japanese Empire! You should not disgrace our country! Why do you slander the heroic souls who sacrificed their lives for the empire and His Majesty the Emperor in the past?"
The tone of these words is righteous and awe-inspiring.
But Kusano sneered, which made Ishihara almost jump.
But!
Yuki Kusano's eyes suddenly changed, and a sharp gaze seemed to be projected into Shintaro Ishihara's heart.
"What is shame? Let me ask you, the governor of Tokyo, what does it mean to bring shame to the country?"
This sentence was so strong that Shintaro Ishihara couldn't parry it.
However, this old guy is still very powerful, and he wanted to refute it, but he was directly blocked by Yuki Kusano.
"May I ask you, did Tadamichi Kuribayashi do what I wrote?"
"......" Shintaro Ishihara was choking to death at the moment, as if he had eaten ten big steamed buns in one bite.
"Yes, you know, right? So, since I have done such a thing, when I was writing the script, I revised this kind of thing, maybe I could write it, and let the inhabitants of the island return to the Japanese mainland, yes, wouldn't it make Kuribayashi Tadamichi more humane, but ......
That's the real shame on Japan!"
"You, you ......" the governor of Tokyo wanted to fight back, but for a moment he didn't know where to start.
At this time, Dong Mutou spoke, "It's not too much of a problem to write a script like this, after all, from the perspective of creating characters, it will make him more different." ”
When the governor of Tokyo heard about it, he got reinforcements!
"Aligado! Eastwood Sand!"
It was as if I was almost grateful.
Kusano Yuki smiled after hearing this, but when he laughed, he still glanced at Dongmu a few more times, and then said: "Okay, I'll put down the historical truth for the time being, and talk about this character, so that the plot is arranged, that is, he let the ordinary people on the island return to the mainland, what will be the result?"
Mr. Eastwood, do you think there is really no problem with filming like this? In that case, what is the logic of the film?"
"Logic?" Dong Mu was stunned, and his brows furrowed.
Kusano Yuki didn't give him a chance to think about it, and said directly: "Let me explain, that is, the situation at that time, that is, what was written in my script, is also in that book, and it is also the real situation of history, the situation on Iwo Jima at that time was that the ships were not coming, and the planes were not coming to support, in short, the more than 20,000 soldiers on this island had been cut off from the Japanese mainland, and the bad thing to say was that they were abandoned by the country of Japan."
So, under such circumstances, how can the ordinary people of those islands be sent back to the Japanese mainland?
Oh, you'll say, there should still be a boat when Kuribayashi Tadamichi comes.
But I ask you, will there really be a boat to pick up these people? Will they go on board? Will there be a boat for them to get on board? What qualifications do they have more than those soldiers and war materiel?"
These words, like a sledgehammer, directly hit the heads of Higashiki and Ishihara.
In fact, this is Yuki Kusano's complaint about the original "Letter to the Family of Iwo Jima".
That's right, he's been wanting to squirt like this for a long time.
This guy Higashiki filmed Kuribayashi Tadamichi as a saint, in that case, the soldiers on the island don't even have military support, and then they can still take care of the common people?
So......
When the two old men on the other side were confused, Yuki Kusano didn't care about their age at all.
That's right, today I won't talk about martial arts by my name overseer!
"I do not deny that Kuribayashi Tadamichi was different from other Japanese generals, he did many humane things, and those letters do exist.
But!
He is still a guy who committed crimes in the war, although he is indeed loyal as a general, he also does force those civilians to be killed by the American army in front of the battle!
He did such a thing, and whatever his purpose, there is no need to glorify this point when we make this film now.
And, beautify this, that's the real shame!
Ishihara-san, think about it, when someone watched this movie, went to check the relevant information, and then learned the truth, then, what would they think?
Mr. Eastwood, think about it, too, a movie that has lost its basic logic, but if some people see the doorway, how will they attack you?
The reason why I did this, and I insisted so firmly on the truth, was actually for one purpose.
Only if you can truly reflect on the war, otherwise, what you shoot is fake, how can you be convinced?"
After the two old men heard this, they were silent...
