readx;

In Hollywood, Los Angeles, USA, taking advantage of the economic crisis, Lightning Films Company occupies an area of nearly 1,000 acres of photography base, newly built Eastern and Western buildings are dotted in between, and people of all colors are constantly coming and going, which really has a sense of time and space change. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

As night falls, the Southeast Asian-style street in the southeast corner of the base is sparsely lined with coconut and banana trees, plus some tropical plants, the shadows of the trees, the lights flicker, and the whole street is shrouded in a sad atmosphere.

At this time, an oriental woman in a kimono with bare feet and messy black hair was running down the street, and someone on the track next to her pushed the camera and followed closely, and then the woman fell to the ground and let out a coquettish cry, her delicate ankle was scratched by the gravel, oozing drops of blood...... At this moment, a "card" sounded, and a smile appeared on everyone's faces, and they breathed a sigh of relief.

Someone stepped forward to help the woman up, whispered a few words of comfort, the woman "giggled" a few times, scratched the messy hair on her forehead, looked back at everyone, the corners of her mouth showed beautiful dimples, and shook her hand to indicate that she was fine.

It turned out that this was the filming site of the movie "Wangxiang", and the last scene "Running to Freedom" was being filmed intensely.

Director Scatou didn't understand why he would spend a lot of money on a documentary film about a Japanese prostitute, and with such a tragic plot of the film, would anyone be willing to spend money on the cinema? But now the documentary "Blood Evidence" that is being screened in major theaters in the United States has made him vaguely understand a lot, during this time, Japan has launched the 918 Incident and the 128 Incident, and the military has brazenly coup d'Γ©tat to kill a large number of military and political veterans such as Prime Minister Inu Yangyi, so that the American people are afraid of this crazy country, but also add infinite curiosity, if there is such a unique movie at this time, it will definitely set off a new wave of box office**.

The next plot is that the woman climbs to the height of the town, looks at the northern sky in a daze, and finally resolutely jumps off the tall rock, and with the loss of life, the round eyes silently accuse the militarist persecution of human nature.

"Cards! Well, it's over once, it's very good! ”

Scatou exclaimed in satisfaction. The film went so smoothly that he was a little surprised. However, the performances of several Japanese women in the play are very exciting, not to say how good their acting skills are, but because they have been engaged in this profession before, and have had similar psychological struggles, this performance is completely true to the performance, no wonder it is so vivid.

Speaking of the origin of these actresses, Scatitou was a little emotional, he really couldn't imagine that there was such a despicable government in the world, and he would actually organize the women of his own country in a frenzied manner, called part-time jobs, but in fact, they went to other countries in droves to sell their ** and souls, earn foreign exchange income, subsidize national construction, and at the same time, they also had the mission of stealing confidential information from other countries.

That's right, these women have a heart-warming nickname - Daisy, in which the starring Ah Hui, with a pretty face, has received special agent training, and finally can't stand the brutal oppression and intrigue of espionage, and surrenders to the local British intelligence service.

Under Ah Hui's designation, the British colonial authorities rushed to rescue dozens of Japanese girls from Sin Chew and other places, who were either courtesans, dancers, or prostitutes engaged in the lowest slut meat.

The British government and intelligence agencies did not expect that this humble little brother of Japan would extend its claws to themselves, and they could not help but be greatly annoyed and lodged a solemn protest with the Japanese government. I don't want the Japanese government to deny it, saying that these women are all voluntary, and the reason why they say this is completely to obtain the right to reside in the United Kingdom, and also said that they will extradite them back to China to interrogate the mastermind behind them.

The British government is in a difficult situation now, and it is really too worthless to make enemies with this little brother of Japan for the sake of these female spies, but if it is ignored, then where is the face of the British Empire? Just when they were in a dilemma, human rights organizations in Britain intervened, and the colonial authorities pushed the boat, and these Japanese women were sent back to London, and they were left to fend for themselves after finding an old house and arranging to live in.

This incident caused a small stir in the media in London, and when the British intelligence team learned about it, they quickly reported it to An Yi, who immediately instructed that this was good film material, and that these girls must be taken to the United States as soon as possible, and then arranged to shoot a film to accuse Japanese imperialism of cruelty and ruthlessness.

At first, these girls were unwilling, but the embarrassing life and cruel reality did not allow them to make more choices, when the contact staff of the lightning film company proposed that all the participants in the performance would receive a high salary of 500,000 US dollars in total, all the girls were moved, anyway, now they have torn their faces with the Japanese authorities, rather than endure humiliation and live in the world, it is better to simply expose it thoroughly, and then seek refuge in the United States and live a good life of freedom.

It was in this situation that "Wangxiang" was officially established and filmed, and it finally ended successfully today.

After the necessary adaptation, the film has changed the background, time and place of the characters, to the effect that after the Russo-Japanese War, despite Japan's victory in the war, the country was heavily indebted and the people lived in difficulty. At this time, the Japanese government's labor department came forward to organize young women to go to Nanyang and European and American countries to work to earn money and contribute to the country's economic development. The heroine Ah Hui is only twelve years old, her family has a solid family since she was a child, and her life is worry-free, but her father who is in politics insists on signing up for her, and in desperation, like most girls, she was sent to Nanyang.

After arriving in Nanyang, these girls were all sent to the "vocational and technical school", at this time Ah Hui was surprised to find that what she wanted to learn was not what weaving, sewing, maintenance machinery and other part-time skills, but how to tease and satisfy men, how to take their words when men **, how to dance with the target or travel together to steal important letters and intelligence, how to develop eyeliner to obtain precious information, and so on. At the entrance ceremony, the headmaster, with a mustache and thick glasses, warned that if the girl did not study well, she would be sent to various agricultural sites and shipyards as the lowliest prostitute, and those with good grades could enjoy a mansion and a famous car, and become the daisy most needed by the empire. On the first night of school, the beautiful Ah Hui was treated by the sanctimonious principal and several instructors.

Under the strict reward and punishment system, when the one-month training period expires, Ah Hui has become a qualified daisy, and was sent to Xingzhou to become a high-level courtesan, wandering among all kinds of people, a little red lips and thousands of tastes, her unique ** childish face, wonderful and graceful body, I don't know how many foreigners have been dumped. Because she was born in a wealthy family, she has been trained in singing and dancing, flower arrangement, piano art, tea ceremony and other training since she was a child to develop a unique oriental charm, Ah Hui has become famous and has become the most popular woman in Sin Chew.

Two years later, World War I broke out, and Japan wanted to take action against Germany, which had occupied the Shandong region of China. In order to find out the disposition of German forces and the possible response of various countries, Daisies, which were scattered all over China and in the colonies of the South Seas, urgently moved to listen to information through various channels. Relying on the natural endowment of women, they collected all the unsuspecting words on the wine table and between the beds, presented them to their superiors, and then analyzed and summarized.

Ah Hui made a great contribution to this, and in a confrontation with a young German who loved her, she obtained real information, which made the Japanese government confirm the fact that the Germans were empty, and thus decisively sent troops to Qingdao and occupied this famous city, which had long been coveted.

However, there is no reward for Ah Hui in Japan, and in their opinion, this is what Ah Hui should do. Later, Ah Hui found the letters left by the German young man while sorting through his belongings. In the letter, the German young man expressed his unforgettable love for Ah Hui, saying that when he came back from Qingdao, he would propose to her, which made Ah Hui feel very guilty.

When similar stories were repeated again and again, Ah Hui finally couldn't bear the inner torment and disgusted with her dirty body, and finally one day, she climbed the hill where her sisters often looked at her hometown, jumped down, and ended her young life.

The story is dark and poignant, and there are many revealing shots, but after careful editing and auditions, Scatitou is finally convinced that in the current atmosphere, the film will be a success.

In fact, in order to cooperate with the promotion of the film, as early as a month ago, newspapers and magazines such as "New York Daily", "American Newspaper", "Los Angeles Post", and "Today's Attention" began to appear sporadically about daisies, about the Japanese government organizing women to engage in a career in exchange for foreign exchange, which gradually attracted the attention of the American people.

This discussion later converged into a frenzy, and the spearhead was directed at the Japanese government.

Just last week, a women's rights organization in the United States organized a large march, holding banners and slogans, chanting slogans such as "Protest against the abuse of women" and "shameless government, shameless people", and walked past the Japanese embassy in Washington, D.C., making the Japanese ambassador extremely embarrassed but helpless.

On July 10, the film "Wangxiang" was officially released in major theaters across the United States, due to the early publicity in place, coupled with the recent endless negative news in Japan, attracted the attention of all Americans, the film just released, it attracted a frenzy of viewing.

In a small and luxurious screening room at the Sunshine Cinema in Manhattan, New York, the chairman of the Morgan consortium, Jack Brown. Morgan and his partner Lamont sat together, watching the film and whispering to each other.

"My dear friend, can you see anything through this film?" Jack. Morgan frowned when he saw Ah Hui being shot by the Japanese principal and a group of instructors, and turned to Lamont on the side and asked.

Lamont shook his head disapprehantly: "There are tragic things everywhere in this world, and I can't pay attention to every single one. It's hard to believe that such a vulgar film would pass the censorship of those people in the Film Association, and it seems that I have to write an article to protest it. ”

Jack. Morgan said: "Lamont, I think it's time for you to reflect on your stance on Japan, don't you know what a bad influence your remarks have on our Morgan consortium?" ”

"Jack, are you trying to ask me about my guilt? I admit that my view of Japan was a bit one-sided, but it was also for the sake of our business! If you think about it, Japan has always been our main customer at Morgan, while China has little business to do and has a sizable amount of foreign debt to repay. The Chinese are a cunning, hypocritical people, two-faced opportunists who do not deserve sympathy at all. Manchuria, on the other hand, was indispensable for Japan, who had bought a barrier against the Soviet Union in the Russo-Japanese War in 1905, invested hundreds of millions of yen in Manchuria, and had millions of Japanese expatriates living there, so it was understandable that there was a need. Moreover, the development of Manchuria will naturally lend money to our bank, which will bring a steady stream of profits to our company. Lamont was remarkable.

Jack. Morgan sighed: "Sometimes, we can't just think about money, we have to think about more...... Do you think the millions of Chinese refugees in Manchuria, as well as the civilians in Shanghai, deserve it? Can a country and a nation really decide the life and death of another country and nation? ”

Lamont hesitated a little, but finally said: "I can't see the situation in Japan clearly, our old friend Prime Minister Inukai was openly shot and killed by nine young officers in front of the official residence, but the murderer was at large and even promoted, which makes me very uneasy...... However, I firmly believe that Japan will soon return to civilian government. ”

Jack. Morgan looked at Lamont with a stubborn face in amazement, feeling that there was no way to convince him, and he felt a wave of frustration.

Jack at this time. Morgan is already a semi-retired nominal president, while Lamont is in charge of all things the company. Half a year ago, Lamont mobilized more than 100 banks around the world to jointly defend the gold standard system of more than 20 currencies such as the British pound. Morgan did it secretly, and soon made Lamont's efforts go to naught. The gold standard ended and the pound depreciated by 30 per cent, causing huge losses to many banks, and the two men quarreled openly at the time, which ended in Lamont's overall victory. At that time, Lamont and the principal partner of Morgan & Co., Charles Murphy. Steele signed a denunciation together and got Jack. Morgan's failure to step down also marked the end of Morgan's role as a family bank.

The film continues to show, and Jack. The more Morgan watched it, the more he felt that Japan was dirty and shameless, and Lamont continued to support Japan regardless of public opinion, which made him feel incomprehensible and unacceptable. Morgan finally broke out: "Lamont, I hope you are good at yourself and don't take Morgan's money to pay for your stubbornness!" With that, he got up and brushed his sleeves away.

Lamont stared straight at the movie screen and muttered, "Am I really wrong?" ”

……

"Homecoming" has set off a viewing frenzy across the United States, so much so that the first greeting people say when they meet is not "Have you seen the movie?" Japan's reputation has been greatly affected, causing the entire Japanese diaspora in the United States to behave with their tails between their legs for quite a long time, not to mention the impact on those Japanese prostitutes engaged in the pornography industry -- almost every Japanese prostitute will be arrested at the local police station and asked if it is a Japanese spy who has stolen how much American intelligence has been stolen. It has led to constant scorn between the United States and Japan.

Later, with the introduction of Wangxiang to Europe, Latin America, the South Seas, and China, the controversy and repercussions were even greater, and for a time the Japanese became the laughing stock of people all over the world, but it accelerated the pace of militarism at home.
