The attitude of the Chinese towards the Japanese is actually very complicated. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
On the one hand, the Chinese people look down on Japan, the little brother of thousands of years, and the phrase "little Japan" fully expresses the contemptuous attitude of the Chinese towards the Japanese.
On the other hand, after the First Sino-Japanese War, the Chinese were dumbfounded by the achievements of the Japanese.
The Japanese defeated the Qing Empire, not to mention, after all, a barbarian-dominated country cannot represent the true strength of the Chinese.
However, the Japanese defeated the Russians again in a few years, which complicated the feelings of the Chinese.
Russians, that's foreigners!
It is not a fluke to be able to beat foreigners to admit defeat, and it still requires a certain amount of strength, so when the Chinese look at the Japanese again, they feel that they have almost reached the level of envy, jealousy and hatred.
As a result, many people believe that if the Chinese want to rise and build their own country, then they must learn from the Japanese and see how this little brother has done for thousands of years.
Those who hold this kind of thinking are definitely not one or two, and often the higher the cultural level and the wider the knowledge, the more they will think so.
Huang Yinrong is one of them.
If you want to change the thinking of these people, it must take a long process, and it must be supplemented by other means, but fortunately, Qin Zhiyuan is prepared.
In the evening, a grand show finally kicked off.
Probably since the beginning of the previous year, Qin Zhiyuan set up a functional department of the Propaganda Department in the Foreign Legion that was still fighting in Europe at that time, and the task of the Propaganda Department was to use lenses and cameras to record the bits and pieces of the Foreign Legion, and record all this in the form of video materials.
Within two years, the Propaganda Department took tens of thousands of photos and nearly 100 hours of video materials, using the lens to truly record countless vivid faces, and also recorded the entire process of the Foreign Legion from scratch and from weak to strong.
It is worth mentioning that in the past two years, 17 journalists who were active on the front line in the name of "war correspondents" were killed for various reasons, and their own deeds were as tragic and great as the deeds they were recording.
After returning to Lanfang, under the instruction of Qin Zhiyuan, in addition to sending these video materials to museums and archives, the Lanfang Propaganda Department organized people to sort out all the footage and film clips, trying to sort out a film that could reflect the bloody struggle of the Foreign Legion in Europe.
So there is this "Champagne Serlon".
In fact, as early as half a year ago, "Champagne Sallon" had been basically sorted out, but after Qin Zhiyuan's review, Qin Zhiyuan put forward some opinions to the director team, and the director team naturally resolutely implemented it, so this time it took half a year, and after four revisions in the middle, the final version appeared.
Qin Zhiyuan originally planned to wait until the Chinese New Year to release it publicly, which would not only enrich the entertainment life of the people of Lanfang, but also boost the cohesion of the people of Lanfang, but after watching the final version, Qin Zhiyuan felt that he should not wait until the New Year was released, and it was really not suitable to play "Champagne Sallon" on such a festive day.
So the premiere of "Champagne Chalon" was placed after the dinner in the evening, and this opportunity was also rare, after all, the envoys of several major countries in the world who had diplomatic relations with Lanfang were in Cam Ranh Bay.
And Bastian, of course.
"Champagne Chalon, it was indeed one of the bravest battles ever fought by the Foreign Legion, but I wonder if it would be disrespectful to the dead to recreate this war in such a way of entertainment?" was invited by Qin Zhiyuan and sat with Qin Zhiyuan to watch the movie, Bastian had different opinions.
For now, movies are still a novelty, and many people have not even seen them, and they are even more unheard of for films in the form of documentaries.
Although Edison invented the sound film ten years ago, the current movies are all silent films, in order to make the film have sound, many theaters use live band soundtracks to add more color to the movie, because of the addition of the band, the film is also called high art, documentary or something, there is no such concept at all.
Qin Zhiyuan obviously doesn't think so, Qin Zhiyuan has watched more documentaries, and he has watched more blockbusters, so Qin Zhiyuan will definitely not ignore the publicity effect of documentaries.
"No, for those who have fought bloodily, it is more important to let more people know that they have been in this world, and let their relatives and friends know how brave they have been." Qin Zhiyuan disagreed with Bastian's statement, in Lanfang, there is no need for a situation like "your name is unknown, and your merits are immortal".
"Well, you're the king, you have the final say, but why isn't there a live band? Is this a real silent movie? "Bastian is like a curious baby.
"It's a sound movie, you don't need a live band, you want it, it's all in this film." Qin Zhiyuan was proud.
That's right, this is a sound movie, since it is part of the country's image publicity, Qin Zhiyuan will definitely not be stingy when he invests in it.
Just when Qin Zhiyuan and Bastian were chatting with each other, the guests were gradually entering the venue, this venue is the auditorium that Cam Ranh Bay Shipyard usually uses for meetings, and it is suitable to be used as a movie screening hall now.
Just outside the auditorium, there are 10 more screening groups that will simultaneously show Champagne Châlons, and then from tomorrow they will travel around the country.
Not only in Cam Ranh Bay, but also in Coconut City, Penglai Island, Jinzhou, and Wanghai Prefecture at this time...... There are hundreds of film screening groups across Lanfang, who will be touring Lanfang to screen Champagne Chalon, as well as other follow-up films.
That's right, since there are rich materials, then the production of the Lanfang Propaganda Department will definitely not be just a "Champagne Sallon", "Champagne Sallon" is just the beginning, the Lanfang Propaganda Department will continue to produce, produce more films, shape the image of the Foreign Legion in an all-round and three-dimensional way, publicize the great achievements of the Foreign Legion, and then promote Lanfang.
Yes, the promotion of the Foreign Legion is tantamount to the promotion of Lanfang, not only in Lanfang, but also internationally.
Qin Zhiyuan is the most aware of the influence of movies, and movies have definitely played an important role in so many cultural invasions in later generations.
Now in the 20s of the 20th century, in this world, movies are just a novelty toy for a small number of people, and no one can understand the power of movies better than Qin Zhiyuan. If you make good use of the weapon of the movie, the effect is not only to promote Lanfang, but also to export Lanfang's culture, Lanfang's ideology, Lanfang's values, and so on.
If Lanfang's values can be accepted by the whole world, then Lanfang's values will become universal values, and Lanfang will have an absolute say in international affairs.
In fact, 8 o'clock in the evening is the scheduled release time of the movie, but because the audience is still entering, it is forced to delay for a while.
Before the birth of movies, people's entertainment life was extremely boring, listening to opera was almost the only entertainment item, so it attracted the prosperity of opera art, the emergence of movies is destined to change all this, from then on, people do not need to go to bed to make villains as soon as it gets dark, and watching movies has become another choice for people.
Of course, on the night of the release of "Champagne Chalon", the feelings of moviegoers are definitely not completely good.
At half past eight, as the lights dimmed, the film officially began.
Unlike other films of this era, "Champagne Chalon" begins with a simple animation, with only two colors, black and white, on a black and white screen, and a black silhouette of a soldier with a gun is introduced into the name of the film company: Lanfang Royal Pictures.
The film begins with an interview, and it is a sound interview, the kind where the sound and the picture are synchronized, which gives the viewer a very wonderful feeling, even if you have seen the movie before, you are beginning to look forward to the next scene.
"Champagne Chalon...... This name sounds beautiful, but in fact he is not beautiful at all, I hate that place so much......" On the screen, in what seems to be a room with a black background, Xiang Ankang's expression with the rank of major general is delicate under the illumination of the incandescent lamp, Xiang Ankang gritted his teeth when he spoke, the muscles of his face were twitching violently, his eyes were full of tears, his shoulders were even a little trembling, and the whole person looked extremely depressed.
In fact, it is really extremely depressing, if it were not for Qin Zhiyuan's order, Xiang Ankang would not have accepted this interview that was just added some time ago, during the entire interview, Xiang Ankang had several emotional breakdowns, and after three days of recording, he completed the interview for less than five minutes during this time.
Just as Xiang Ankang was speaking, a photo of Xiang Ankang wearing a Foreign Legion uniform appeared under the screen, and then, the screen was still, and the image of Xiang Ankang who was being interviewed was zoomed out, and the photo of Xiang Ankang wearing a Foreign Legion uniform was enlarged, and two photos of the same size filled the entire screen. At the same time, there is a thick and steady baritone narration: "Xiang Ankang, the commander of the 11th Division of the Foreign Legion at the time of the Champagne Chalons Campaign, is now the commander-in-chief of the Yingzhou Military Region. ”
"Can you tell us about the situation?" Someone next to him was talking.
"No, I don't want to say it, I don't even want to think about that place......" Xiang Ankang covered his face in pain.
The camera turns, this time an Annam man in the uniform of the Foreign Legion: "At the end of April, the Germans attacked again, and my troops and General Xiang's troops were transferred to Champagne Chalon, ready to meet the Germans...... At that time, my army had 12,000 men, and the troops were not fully manned, and General Xiang's troops had 16,000 men, which was an oddly loaded infantry division...... An all-Chinese infantry division ......"
Just after this Annan person finished speaking, a photo of many people taking a group photo appeared on the screen, and the person circled in red on the photo was obviously the Annan person who was interviewed just now, but almost everyone's attention was not on the Annan person, but on Qin Zhiyuan in the center of the photo.
The same voice introduced: "Hu Yangshu, a native of Saigon, Annan, was the commander of the Fourth Division of the Foreign Legion Annan at the time, and is now the commander of the Sixth Division of the Lanfang Foreign Legion." ”
As soon as the camera turned, the huge battle scene finally appeared, which was the video footage of the 11th Division of the Foreign Legion and the 4th Division of Annam at that time when they marched towards Champagne Chalon.
Due to the conditions, all the materials filmed at that time were silent, and all the voices in the film were added later.
The narrator's voice continues: "...... The faces of these young people were full of hope for the future, but no one could have imagined what they would face in three days......"
Almost as soon as the film began, it captured the hearts of all moviegoers.
