Before the Japanese army was about to attack the city, the security zone initiated by Rabe, Weitling and others, although there was no official reply from the Japanese side from the beginning, that is to say, the Japanese side did not explicitly accept such a thing as a security zone, but after the fall of Nanjing, these security zones still became a refuge for the people living in Nanjing, fleeing to Nanjing and the defeated soldiers.

Qiao Feng set St. Mary's Church as a place similar to a safe zone.

This is what people think is a place of refuge, so there will be old and weak women and children who take refuge here.

But in fact, the so-called safe zone is not safe.

After the army captured the Zhonghua Gate in Nanjing, outside the Zhonghua Gate, after gang-raping the girl, they forced the passing monks to continue the rape, but the monk refused to obey and was actually executed to death by the palace.

The women of Nanjing, all of whom were in danger of taking refuge in the safe zones designated by the International Committee of the Overseas Chinese Association.

However, in disregard of international justice, the army also pursued its bestial desires, and every night they crossed the wall and entered it, unscrupulously choosing the old and the young, and groping for rape.

In the movie, the old and young women and children in St. Mary's Church are naturally unavoidable.

Therefore, Anne, who blocked the army's beastly nature, would be pushed down and would be slapped in the face.

Therefore, there will be students, women and children who are violated by the army, or die or go crazy.

What Qiao Feng wants to tell the audience is that St. Mary's Church is not a safe haven, it is just a grass hut that can temporarily shelter people from the wind and rain, and it is crumbling and will collapse at any time.

In the original Jinling Thirteen Hairpins, this point is not enough.

Inside, Miss Qin Huai can laugh and play, drink red wine, and get a foreigner to play ambiguous, flirt, and finally dedicate herself.

That's bad, it's not serious.

In such an environment, such a crisis, in a situation where you can be violated at any time and die, no one will have that kind of feeling.

Even if they really don't know exactly what is going on outside, but the streets are full of dead people, and they have all escaped from the Qinhuai River, so they should generally feel something.

How could it still be so easy.

Although, Jinling Thirteen Hairpins is a commercial film, but since you are shooting history, then at least respect history.

Therefore, Qiao Feng directly erased the American corpse collector and fake priest in the original Jinling Thirteen Hairpins.

There's no need for love here.

Also, the most criticized point in the Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling is that in the end, all the Qinhuai girls replaced the students to sing for the army.

It's not that Miss Qin Huai is wrong to go for the students.

It's that the starting point is unacceptable.

In the original version, it is said that because they are mixed with the Qinhuai River anyway, what they do is to usher in the livelihood they are sent to, anyway, it's just like that, who to give it to is not to give.

And what's "not blessed to be a schoolgirl, pretending, having a good time" and something like that.

Of course, the words of not being lucky to be a student and pretending to be something like that are certainly not from the heart, but just a reason used to convince yourself in the movie.

But it's similar to the real history, that is, the girls of Qin Huai sang for the students really because of their background, they are Sister Yao.

It's just that in the movie, they decided to go by themselves, and in history they were forced to go by the helpless Weitling and other good families, and they just accepted their fate.

In fact, in those days, if someone else was in Weitling's position, I am afraid that such a decision would have been made.

But after all, the movie is made for today's audience.

Not in that era, in that desperate situation, no one can really put themselves in the shoes of Weitling and their desperate, helpless decision.

The audience will only think why, why does Sister Yao have to replace the students, is it because they are sold, they are not clean, they are not clean, and the students are clean?

Doesn't Sister Yao have human rights?

Yes, Sister Yao at that time had no human rights.

They didn't fall into the dust of their own will, but were sold into the kiln.

How can a cargo have human rights.

Everyone else is hostile to them, contemptuous, and looks down on them from the bottom of their hearts, where do they care what they think.

In cases where they have to be sacrificed, they are not sacrificed at the expense of whom.

Even, many people will think that they are not called sacrifice, that is their fate.

But the current audience must not be able to accept such a concept.

Just like Spielberg listened to Qiao Feng's diary about Weitling, they encouraged, and even forced the prostitutes who were hiding in the safe zone, and when they gave them to him, they said that they were committing crimes.

Whatever the reason, it is not right for us to let people suffer and die for others, that is a crime.

Even if it is shown in the movie that Miss Qin Huai volunteered to go for the students, that is not right.

Just because he was born from a bad background and was a prostitute, he wanted to die for others, and he was willing to die, which expressed the wrong point of view, and the three views were not correct.

Forcibly based on the difference in identity, a kind of prostitute is a kind of original sin, only if they sacrifice can they wash their white, in order to atone for their sins to sublimate the theme, the audience will feel diaphragm after watching it, even if they can't say why, but there is an idea in their hearts, this reason is untenable.

Therefore, Qiao Feng changed and arranged for some other women and children refugees in St. Mary's Church.

The first is to create the kind of pathos that the city is devastated and the people are everywhere.

It can't be said that like the original, it was like an out-of-this-world place where you could drink and laugh at first.

The second is to foreshadow the singing for the students later.

Thirteen female students were asked to sing by the military officers, and Yumo, the eldest of the Qin Huai girls, suggested that they go instead of the students.

But except for the little follower Hongling, the other girls were unwilling.

"Okay, there's a kind of thing you are hiding here to the end, occupying other people's territory, eating other people's rations, and watching the Japanese drag those little girls away to scourge! Who are you hiding to leave it to? Do you want someone to love if you keep it?"

Yumo is like a shrew, and when she says a word, she is scolded several times, but she can't be sure who she scolds. "Hide it, hide it until you are reincarnated, reincarnate a good child, and be a schoolgirl too, and let the cheap ones come to give you a dog day!"

scolded with a head and face, some were scolded and accepted their fate, but some were still unwilling.

That's human nature.

After all, it's a matter of life and death, everyone who can say a word resigned themselves to their fate, and all the girls agreed to go to the wolf's den, which is really too fake.

There is a good saying, people don't kill for themselves, let everyone be willing to disobey others and pay for their lives, you can't do it even in RMB.

What's more, it's just the eldest sister in the kiln sister.

Thirteen students, the number of Qin Huai girls themselves is not enough, and there are still people who are unwilling to live or die, what if the number is not enough?

At this time, some of the dozens of women and children stood up.

Because after Yumo scolded the other girls, some of the girls who changed their minds and agreed to go for the students said the reason for their change, we have lived for more than twenty years, and they are only ten years old, so I can't bear that such a young child has to face those tragic things.

I'll live for them, let them live well for us.

Such words touched everyone, and many women and children expressed their willingness to go for the sake of their children.

See, the theme is very different from the original.

is also to suffer humiliation and death for the children, and now there are Qin Huai girls and ordinary women.

The girls initially refused because they had basic human dignity.

Later, some people agreed, and it also touched many women and children to stand up, because it is a universal value that adults protect children at all times.

Because of this reason, everyone sacrifices, the audience will not find it unacceptable, especially if there are ordinary women in it, the audience will not subconsciously think that it is because of the difference in identity, because it is the identity of a prostitute, so the movie will let these people sacrifice.

The script has been greatly changed, and the unreasonable and criticized places in the original Jinling Thirteen Hairpins have been changed and supplemented.

Qiao Feng and Spielberg had a detailed communication on filming and framing, and then Spielberg went back to prepare for the formation of the group, and Qiao Feng was responsible for selecting actors and communicating with the mainland department.
