Chapter 264: "Human Witness" is released
However, in the rest of your life, there will be pride, and there will be frustration. While the rest of his life gradually occupied half of the Japanese grain industry, "Human Witness", the only movie that could make the rest of his life lose money, was released.
After the release of "Human Witness", as expected by the rest of my life, it stung the Japanese. After the audience who came to Mu Yusheng saw the first movie, the Japanese entertainment industry began to blame Yusheng overwhelmingly.
Because of this "Human Witness", it was mainly produced by Yu Sheng's own studio. The performance of Kyoko Yasugi is Huang Liushuang, who is the same age as Kyoko Yasugi in the movie, and the performance is extremely expressive. And the "Human Witness" plagiarized for the rest of his life naturally cannot be exactly the same as the original "Human Witness" in later generations.
The footage of the American GIs running amok in Japan had to be removed, and finally, the footage of the American police being stabbed and falling to the ground for helping the Japanese police solve the case had to be removed. After all, the rest of his life is not yet able to turn against the Americans.
In this way, the original theme of blaming Americans in the movie "Human Witness" has been deviated. In the context of the original movie, the cause of everything was the atrocities of the Americans. It was because of the atrocities of the Americans in Japan that led to a series of misfortunes later.
After removing this cause and later reflecting on discrimination and hatred, in the setting context of the movie "Human Witness", the cause of everything has become the hypocrisy and ruthlessness of Kyoko Yasugi herself. Although this deepened the discussion of human nature, the proposition of human nature that a mother killed her son made the Japanese feel even more stinging.
Many Japanese people are well aware of how many Japanese women have had such a relationship with American GIs in order to survive or earn money and materials. Although there are no specific figures, however, these things are not uncommon. Of course, there are also many Japanese women who have had a relationship with American GIs, and they know how many mixed-race children have been abandoned by themselves or women like themselves.
In this era, there are not many means of contraception. Moreover. When the American GIs didn't like it, these women naturally had to follow the wishes of the American GIs. Therefore, in this era, the number of mixed-race children is extremely high.
According to later statistics, about 150,000 to 200,000 mixed-race children were born in this era. This number is more than the number of American GIs stationed in Japan. Of course, these American GIs are unlikely to admit this child. A large number of mulattoes were abandoned.
And just like in "Human Witness", Jonny was brought back to the United States. It's already good. There are 150,000 to 200,000 mixed-race children, and there are 150,000 to 200,000 Japanese mothers, and this number does not count those who have had an abortion.
In this way, there are hundreds of thousands of Japanese women like Kyoko Yasugi. For the rest of his life, this "Human Witness" stings this group of people. After pregnancy and childbirth, they cannot afford to raise these mixed-race children or give them away. Or abandon it. It is impossible to be without self-reproach in your heart. After all, this is his own flesh and blood.
When this scar was revealed in the blood of this "Human Witness" for the rest of his life, the person who blamed himself and repented. Not much, actually. Most people still follow their instincts and try all kinds of excuses to shirk responsibility. At the same time, they began to scold for the rest of their lives, tearing their wounds open.
This instinctive shirk is almost human nature. Even in the Hereafter. There will also be people who come up with all sorts of plausible and noble reasons for abortion and abandonment of children.
And even ordinary Japanese people have quite a lot of discrimination against mixed-race people. Many Japanese people see the mestizo born in this era as a shame for the Japanese. For the rest of his life, he blatantly tore apart the scars shared by the Japanese, which naturally did not make the Japanese have any good impression of him.
When someone takes the lead. When criticizing and scolding the rest of his life's "Human Witness", although these people have nothing to do with themselves, but they are unhappy in their hearts, they will naturally follow. In this way, it is strange that the reputation and box office of this "Human Witness" for the rest of my life can be good.
This is completely different from when the later "Human Witness" was released, when the Japanese watched the movie with the mentality of looking back on history. For a time, Yu Daguan was pointed out by thousands of people in Japan. The release of "Human Witness" in Japan was extremely cold.
Contrary to Japan, European and American countries have a high evaluation of this film. Some critics even commented that this is the only one of the many works in his life that seriously explores human nature. The image of Kyoko Yasugi, although distorted, is universal to a certain extent. Man himself is a very tangled and pretentious creature.
This woman has lived in the evaluation of others all her life, and has never had herself, so she has the extremely contradictory character of killing a son with her own hands, but incomparably conniving at another son. This kind of preference is not, in fact, not the heart. I also have contradictions in my heart, and I know that it shouldn't be like this.
It's just that social evaluation and orientation are generally like this, and if you don't do this, you will appear to be a maverick. Let some people have to conform to the herd. is like Fan Shengmei's mother in the later drama "Ode to Joy". Just for the sake of a traditional patriarchal concept, the attitude towards sons and grandsons and towards daughters is completely different. Sad.
Although the movie "Human Witness" was not popular, the rest of his life was not worried. He knew the potential of the film, not in this era, but twenty years later. Although there is a small loss in front of him, with his current net worth, spending a little money can stimulate all the Japanese to be restless, and having to find 10,000 reasons to shirk responsibility is also a pleasing thing to the eye.
Today's Yu Da rich man can also be regarded as a local tyrant, and he can be willful occasionally.
However, wealth is such a thing, after accumulating to a certain extent, even if the owner does not want to make money, money will come to the door. When he was joking with Qing Xiaoyi for the rest of his life, whether to turn Marilyn Monroe into the little wife of the Yu family, Shimizu Shitong came to report and said that there was a stranger who wanted to see Yu Sheng.
Yu Sheng was a little surprised: "Stranger? Who? ”
"He claimed to be from the Yamaguchi-gumi and wanted to discuss some cooperation with Mr. Yu."
The rest of his life quickly went through the information about the Japanese Yamaguchi-gumi that he knew in his later life, and then, in his mind, he already knew the purpose of the Yamaguchi-gumi visit. Yu Sheng said to Qing Shui Shitong: "Please let him in!" ”
The name Yamaguchi-gumi has appeared in many later novels, and it can be regarded as thunderous. And, unlike in China, the Yamaguchi-gumi lasted for 100 years from the founding of Haruyoshi Yamaguchi in Kobe City in 1915 to later generations.
By later generations, the Yamaguchi-gumi had become the largest designated gang in Japan. It is also one of the oldest and largest gang organizations in East Asia and the world. The scale is many times larger than when Haruyoshi Yamaguchi first established the Yamaguchi-gumi. In the Hereafter. In addition to the four islands of Japan, the Yamaguchi-gumi are also widely active in Western Europe, Eastern Europe, the United States, Canada, South America, Australia, New Zealand, and Southeast Asia, and have close ties with gang organizations such as the United States and the Italian mafia.
After World War II, Japan was defeated, although the Yamaguchi-gumi also suffered some shocks. However, since the Yamaguchi-gumi were not war criminals, the impact was not too great. In addition, in the turbulent times at the beginning of the collapse of Japan's economy and other systems, the black market in Japan's major cities flourished. It's a good time for him to do what he does best.
Although the Yamaguchi-gumi is a violent group in Japan, its economic acumen should not be underestimated. In later generations, when most Japanese gangsters were still using entertainment companies as fat sheep and charging various fees, Kazuo Taoka, the third-generation leader of the Yamaguchi-gumi, invested in the establishment of Kobe Performing Arts, including the most popular stars of the year, Kazueda Kato and others.
After some operation, they began to earn a lot of money.
In later generations, there was an economic bubble in Japan in the 80s. At a time when the prices of various assets were falling wildly, the Yamaguchi-gumi began to invest in real estate, stocks, and art again. After buying at a low price, sell it at a high price, making a huge profit. When the Japanese economic bubble disappeared in the nineties. The Yamaguchi-gumi began to devote themselves to the non-performing debt consolidation industry again, buying assets on a large scale that had plummeted in value.
According to the statistics of Fortune magazine in the United States, in 2014, the annual income of the Yamaguchi-gumi was as high as 80 billion US dollars.
As far as the rest of my life knows. In 1947, with the acquiescence of the Americans, Japan's non-governmental trade was reopened. The Yamaguchi-gumi began to engage in subcontracting and secondary subcontracting of port loading and unloading operations at various ports in Japan. Profit from it.
The rest of his life's business, including the transportation of grain and the import of raw materials for illusion drinks, as well as the export transportation of various antique treasures collected from Japan, are inseparable from the port. And the relationship between Yu Sheng and the Americans is extraordinary, so no one dares to touch the ships in Yu Sheng's name at all.
And most of the loading and unloading of the cargo on the ship for the rest of his life is also done by machinery and the teenagers who were raised by the rest of his life and loyal to the rest of his life. It has nothing to do with the Yamaguchi-gumi.
So, after meeting the man sent by the Yamaguchi-gumi who called himself Miki, he said to Miki, "Mr. Miki, please forgive me for my ignorance, I really don't know where we can cooperate. ”
Miki smiled: "We naturally know that Mr. Yu's family has a big business and makes a lot of money. There are not many places where we can use our Yamaguchi-gumi. However, this time, we wanted Mr. Yu to come forward and help us do something. ”
"Is there anything else in Japan that the Yamaguchi-gumi can't do?"
"Of course! For example, we can't handle the Americans. According to our information, the subcontracting of the loading and unloading business we are engaged in at the port has already caused others to complain. The Americans also have the intention of issuing a ban. ”
According to Yu Sheng's knowledge, in 1948, the Civil Transport Division of the Economic Science Bureau of the Allied Forces Headquarters in Japan issued a ban on special contracting and secondary subcontracting of port loading and unloading business, and the subcontracting of port loading and unloading business of the Yamaguchi Group no longer had room for survival.
It was not until 1952, when the Ministry of Transport enacted the "Harbor Transportation Business Act" and abolished the ban issued by the Private Transport Division of the Economic Science Bureau of the Allied General Headquarters in Japan, that the Yamaguchi-gumi became active in the port again.
Yu Sheng said to Miki: "I can't help you with this matter." Although I have some friendship with the Americans, I can't get to the point where it affects the operation and release of the policy. ”
Miki said: "We know that the Americans' decision is unstoppable, so we have no intention of doing so. I came this time to ask Mr. Yu to help us write a script. The price is negotiable. ”
Yu Sheng asked, "The Yamaguchi-gumi want to enter the entertainment industry?" Who does this mean? ”
Miki replied, "That's what Kazuo Taoka meant. ”
The rest of my life somewhat understood. Kazuo Taoka has been the third-generation leader of the Yamaguchi-gumi since 1946. It was this person who led the Yamaguchi-gumi into the entertainment industry and scooped up a lot of money. In 1951, Kazuo Tazuo went to Toei Kyoto Photography Studio to visit Koji Tsuruta's manager and Matsuyoshi and asked Koji Tsuruta to perform at the Koyoshi Department of the Yamaguchi-gumi, but was refused.
In 1952, Koji Tsuruta was attacked by Kenichi Yamamoto, a member of the Yamaguchi-gumi, at his hotel in Tennoji District, Osaka. This incident shocked the Japanese and even Asian entertainment industry.
It is not surprising if Kazuo Taoka started to enter the entertainment industry a few years earlier because he saw the movies he shot for the rest of his life.
The rest of my life had no intention of writing scripts for the Japanese. He is not Koji Tsuruta who has no ability to resist, Qing Xiaoyi is by his side, and now he is still following the American female soldier Lucy as a bodyguard. Although he said that he was a bodyguard, Lucy had no chance to shoot at all. Every day, I follow Qing Xiaoyi to hang out and shop, taste food, and find beauty and beauty methods, and I can't miss it.
There are very few highly skilled American female soldiers in this era. As soon as Lucy stood beside Qing Xiaoyi, she represented the meaning of the Americans. Therefore, for the rest of his life, he doesn't have to worry about Qing Xiaoyi's safety at all, if anyone dares to touch Qing Xiaoyi, he is purely looking for death.
And the rest of his life is not to mention, although he started by relying on the entertainment industry, he has the skills of a martial arts master. Whoever tries to attack him will die a terrible death.
Therefore, Yu Sheng said to Miki: "I'm afraid I can't help this for the time being." "Human Witness", which has just been released now, has a dismal box office and has hit me hard. I need to be quiet. In a short period of time, I'm afraid there won't be any works. ”
The refusal for the rest of his life was already expected by Miki. Miki was not surprised, and said to Yu Sheng: "As long as Mr. Yu wants to write a script, he can write any subject and any time." The price can also be set by Mr. Yu. We know that Mr. Yu is not short of money, but there are still some things that are more valuable than money to Mr. Yu. For example, the Black Dragon Society! For example, Yoshio Kodama! ”
Yu Sheng was surprised: "The Black Dragon Society and Kodama Yuyoshio? I'm really interested. ”
Miki smiled: "As long as Mr. Yu is willing to help us write the script for the Yamaguchi-gumi, then we will help Mr. Yu get the Black Dragon Society and Kodama Yuyoshio." Their life and death will be in the blink of Mr. Yu's thoughts! (To be continued.) )
