A beam of light shines on the big screen, without any opening logo, and the name of the documentary directly appearsβ€”β€”!

This is followed by a few lines of subtitles:

"This film was filmed in Nanjing, the capital of China, because some of the pictures are too bloody, please watch it carefully, and it is not recommended for minors under the age of 16."

"Because the documentary filmmakers, rescuers, and victims are still in China and are still under the threat of the Japanese army, the faces of the characters in this film have been blurred, and the specific names of the relevant characters are pseudonyms."

Everything in the picture, the feature film begins, and there are a few lines of subtitles:

"What we've seen and heard is only a fraction of the atrocities that have taken place in this city, but I think it's enough to give you an idea of the hellish things that people in this city are going through. - Mr. J. ”

"February 937, Nanjing before the Japanese occupation."

The documentary uses 6mm film, black and white, but just the subtitles that are switched at the beginning are already heavy.

At the beginning, the footage was basically empty, which was taken before the Japanese army attacked Nanjing, and the content was all Nanjing's buildings. The occasional street scene shows the audience the bustle of China's capital, even though Nanjing has been bombed several times and half of its residents have been evacuated.

Each picture has a text description, and in order to make it easier for American audiences to understand, Zhou Hexuan even added a local map of Nanjing in the later stage.

"Oh, God! It's horrible. ”

After only six minutes, some ordinary audience members couldn't stand it anymore and stood up and hurriedly left the theater.

The documentary was so terrible that later generations could not find the full version on the Internet, only a few sporadic shots. But even the sporadic footage of the bloody scenes is deleted, which makes people shudder, not to mention that the audience is watching the original in the theater at the moment.

More and more ordinary spectators left their seats, less than 20 minutes, and only a third of them left. When all the 05-minute documentaries were screened, there were only a few ordinary audiences left in the theater, and the others were celebrities and reporters specially invited by Zhou Hexuan to watch the movie.

There was a dead silence in the cinema, and even the sound of heavy breathing could be heard.

After a long time, Situ Meitang stood up tremblingly, and Situ Juncong hurriedly helped, "Slow down." ”

"It's too late to slow down, go back and donate!" Situ Meitang held an evil fire in his heart.

Zhang Pengchun said to Hu Shi beside him: "Brother Suitable......"

"Come out for a walk with me." Hu Shi interrupted, his voice a little hoarse.

Einstein, Chaplin and others reacted similarly, if it was just a general atrocity, people would be angry, spit, and talk. But after watching this documentary, I can only fall into silence, it has completely deviated from human nature, even the beasts are nobler than the Japanese soldiers who participated in the massacre.

Stephen Wise had a gloomy face, he had no affection for the Chinese, but he thought of the Jews in Germany. The Japanese army carried out massacres after the occupation of Nanjing, and it was even more convenient for Hitler to massacre the Jews, and everyone knew that guy was a madman.

The way must be found for fellow Jews as soon as possible!

Stephen Wise was keen to settle Jewish refugees in Palestine, but that was British territory. Even after the establishment of the State of Israel after World War II, Britain still stood up to support the Palestinians in their resistance, let alone snatch food from the tiger's mouth now.

Not to mention the United States, which is not yet full of immigration quotas this year, and the Jewish consortium supports Roosevelt's New Deal, but it still cannot be exchanged for ordinary Jewish refugees entering the United States.

The best way to do this is to work with the Chinese to preserve the Jewish people's life first. As for Japan, Stephen Wise is very hostile, what kind of good bird can Germany's allies be?

"Mr. Zhou, I will try my best to help you publicize." Stephen Wise finished speaking and left.

"Thank you." Zhou Hexuan personally sent the other party out of the theater.

Stephen Wise's energy is very great, and with his support, it is equivalent to having the support of the American Jewish Foundation.

Today, there are three leaders in the Zionist movement: religious leader Stephen Wise, scientist Haim Weizman, and political activist Ben Gurion.

The latter two were Israel's first president and prime minister, respectively, and because of their long-term activities in Europe, they were more famous and influential. Stephen Wise also made great contributions to the founding of Israel, and without him colluding with the American Jewish consortium to make trouble, it would have been difficult for Haym Weizman to win the support of President Truman.

Sure enough, the American Jewish media made a concerted effort the next day to promote the Nanjing Massacre and link it to the Nazi persecution of Jews.

However, the results are far from ideal.

The attendance of this documentary is also very low, because the picture is so bloody that the American people do not want to watch it, and even if they do, they will not last long.

This was similar to the historical situation, as American magazine journalist David Bergamini later wrote in his book: "Only a few people watched the film because it was felt that the mutilated bodies, blood-stained houses, and bayonet babies shown in the film were so horrific that they could not be performed." ”

Universal Pictures, Luen Mei Pictures, and Warner Bros. were a little struggling because they had non-Jewish shareholders. The stall is too big and there are few moviegoers, so those shareholders began to oppose it, and they can only continue to reduce the number of screenings.

A week later, there was only one theater left to show the Holocaust documentary, and not only did it not make money to support China's war of resistance, but Zhou Hexuan and the distributor lost a lot of money.

However, Zhou Hexuan also brought about a bigger change, that is, there was a vigorous propaganda on the radio and newspapers, so that even Americans who had not watched the documentary knew that the Japanese were a group of beasts and that the Japanese had carried out inhumane massacres in China.

The sentiment of the United States to aid China has become even higher, and the capitalists with relevant interests have seized the opportunity to promote it, so that the movement of the American people to "boycott Japanese goods" has reached its peak ahead of schedule.

Some large conglomerates have also taken action, mobilizing civil society groups to frantically promote American isolationism.

For example, the organization "First Committee of the United States" actually helped screen Holocaust documentaries. Their goal is to intimidate the American people, to use documentaries to prove the cruelty of war, and to take the opportunity to propagate that the best option for the United States is to remain neutral, that it is useless to get involved in any foreign affairs, and that war can only bring harm to the American people.

The American people were soon divided into two factions, one faction advocating active aid to China, and the other faction advocating not to provoke Japan.

This kind of public opinion war is actually a struggle between the ASP and the Jewish community, and it is also a struggle between relevant interest groups.

However, regardless of the viewpoint, the American people have the same view of Japan, that is, "the Japanese are brutal" and "Japan is an unreasonable country."

The results of a quick poll conducted by a non-governmental research agency in the United States showed that 95 percent of Americans opposed the United States entering the war; 92% of Americans have an aversion to Japan; 90% of Americans sympathize with China; 3% of Americans support a boycott of Japanese goods; Seven percent of Americans support scrapping the U.S.-Japan trade deal.

This poll can be summed up as follows: Americans think the Japanese are very bad, feel the Chinese are pitiful, and feel that they can easily help China and sanction Japan. But the war is terrible, and we Americans must not fight.
