Chapter 682: Voice for the Dead Wounded Soul(2/2)

Of course, this passage has been processed with a certain amount of artistic processing after being published.

"...The Capital Cinema is crowded with audiences, and even the early screenings are full. In order to buy movie tickets, many viewers even get up more than two hours in advance to queue up.

These audiences walked into the screening hall with anticipation and walked out with red eyes. Everyone's faces were filled with sadness and grief.

A viewer over 60 years old said emotionally after walking out of the movie that the Chinese nation has suffered humiliation in the past hundred years.

Now that we have finally stood up, we must establish national self-esteem and self-improvement awareness and learn from history."

The audience's tears and praise, media reports and praise made "Rabe Diary" like a hydrogen bomb that detonated above people's heads, shocking everyone.

When the smoke from the explosion of this hydrogen bomb dissipated, everyone underwent a spiritual baptism and spiritual reshaping.

After being released for a few days, "Rabe's Diary" triggered a domestic movie viewing frenzy, and the sensational effect it produced was no less than "The Garland Under the Mountain" of that year.

Xie Jin, who devoted three years and effort to this movie, was once again praised by the media.

The media judged that the works that Xie Jin had filmed in recent years, "The Battle of Red Cliff", "The Opium War" and "The Diary of Rabe", are both epic and highly viewable.

The dual pursuit of both artistic and entertaining has made Xie Jin a master of the Chinese film industry, far behind the directors of the same era.

Even the fifth-generation directors who are in their prime will be bleak in front of him.

In addition to Xie Jin being praised on the altar, Lin Chaoyang, who silently escorted Xie Jin behind his back, has also become one of the hot topics of media discussion.

Everyone understands that large investments that cost hundreds of millions of yuan rely on the box office potential of mainland China, it is difficult to make money, not to mention making money.

If you are not careful, you will lose a huge loss, because Xie Jin's several works in recent years have been successfully invested and successfully.

It is inseparable from Lin Chaoyang's trust and help in him.

With the great success of "Rabe Diary", the cooperation between the two has once again become a good story in the media.

As early as late June, Shanghai Film Studios had a film "Life and Death Choice" that reflected anti-corruption work. Without anyone looking forward to it, the film achieved a box office of 44 million in just 12 days.

The success of "Life and Death" is largely attributed to the government's venue. According to the normal historical trajectory, the movie should have won 117 million yuan in box office and became the annual box office champion in 2000.

But the emergence of "Rabe Diary" directly interrupted the box office championship of "Life and Death" and the box office of the movie was frozen at 84 million.

As for the other 30 million box office that should have been achieved, it naturally became the item in "Rabe's Diary".

In the summer of 2000, "Rabe Diary" was even hotter than the weather. On the 13th day of its release, "Rabe Diary" successfully exceeded 100 million yuan in box office.

Xie Jin, who had a roadshow in various places, returned to Yanjing and held a celebration banquet for the box office of "Rabe Diary" that exceeded 100 million yuan. It was said that it was a celebration banquet, but in fact it was just for publicity.

On the day of the celebration banquet, hundreds of media outlets from all over the country, as well as many foreign media outlets.

The "Nanjing Massacre" involved in "Rabe's Diary" is an international proposal. Although it is not as famous as the "Schindler's List", it is also a hot news.

At the celebration banquet, a reporter paid attention to the overseas release of "Rabe Diary".

"The overseas release of the movie was released by Lin's Pictures and has been released in Hong Kong, Wandao, Singapore and Malaysia, and will be released in more countries and regions in the future." Xie Jin replied.

"What about Japan? What about Japan?"

Obviously, this question is what the reporter wants to ask the most.

As soon as he asked, the reporters' cameras were aimed at Xie Jin in unison, and it seemed that everyone was paying attention to this matter.

"Rabe Diary" reflects the heinous crimes of the Japanese invaders during World War II. If they cannot be released in Japan, the Chinese people will always feel a little regretful.

Seeing everyone staring at him with bright eyes, including a reporter from Japan's Asahi Shimbun, Xie Jin smiled relaxedly and was not slow.

"We are also striving for the release of Japan, but I think everyone should understand that it is not easy for "Rabe Diary" to be released in Japan."

All the readers present immediately knew Xie Jin's words, and even looked at the reporter of Asahi Shimbun with a bad look.

The later generations of Asahi Shimbun were a true rightist in Japan, but now it has been controlled by Tao Yushu and Masayoshi Son. The "right" means "right" and the boss's motherland can't be flattered from time to time.

That's why their reporters appeared at the celebration meeting of "Rabe Diary".

Less than a week after Xie Jin finished speaking, "Rabe Diary" was successfully released in Japan. Lin's Pictures can be said to have taken out all her energy for this matter. This incident also indirectly proves Lin's Pictures' success in operating in Japan for many years.

But to be honest, the reason why "Rabe Diary" can be released in Japan is more due to the political environment.

If it were five years later, even if Lin's Film has a considerable influence in the Japanese film industry, it would be difficult to promote the release of this film.

After all, by then, the political atmosphere had been completely different, and the right-wing forces in Japan had already gained an overwhelming advantage.

"Rabe Diary" is released in late August in Japan, and there are less than 20 days left before the opening of the Sydney Olympics. This release time is really not a good opportunity, but it was released in the end.

After the movie was released in Japan, it was soon boycotted by the Japanese political circles and the people who were rapidly rising right-wing forces.

In addition, several Japanese actors who performed in the film, including Kagawa Teruyuki, became the targets of boycott.

But at the same time, there are two forces firmly supporting the film. One of them is of course the power of Lin's Pictures, and the other is the Japanese writers and scholars who are good friends with Lin Chaoyang.

If the two forces want to say which one is stronger, of course it is the right wingers.

But verbal battles have nothing to do with being strong or not. Anyway, everyone has their own opinions and no one can stop anyone from talking.

On the contrary, because of the media quarrel, "Rabe Diary" has attracted widespread attention in Japan, which has also had a positive impact on the box office.

"Rabe Diary" was released in Japan for 32 days and finally achieved a box office of 640 million yen, which is about 400 in RMB.

00,000.

Compared with Hollywood movies, the box office in Japan is not very high, but it is already quite good in Chinese movies. What's more, "Rabe Diary" itself can carry the label of "anti-Japanese".

As a film that reflects Japan's crimes during World War II, it may have a much greater political and historical significance in the box office itself.

To this end, Xin H News also sent a special trip to interview some people in the Japanese cultural circle. These people have publicly supported or supported the "Rabe Diary" in the media.

Among them, the actor Kagawa Teruyuki has been labeled as a "traitor" and "Japanese traitor" by many Japanese right wings, but Kagawa Teruyuki doesn't care much.

Because he received the promise of Lin's Pictures, his future career development will focus on Hollywood and China.

There are Hollywood movies, who will act in Japanese movies?

As long as you pass the barrier in your heart, being a "Japanese traitor" is nothing.

In addition, Nobel Prize winner Kenzaburo Oe also accepted an exclusive interview with a reporter from Xin H News Agency, and also showed his face on CCTV for 30 seconds.

The next day, his interview was also featured in the People's Daily.

In this interview with "Speaking for the Dead Wounded Souls, one by one, Mr. Kensaburo Oe, the winner of the Nobel Prize in Literature",

Kensazaburo Oe ruthlessly criticized the signs of military G-ism that was reviving in Japan.

He is a firm left-wing and anti-war faction in Japan and has maintained good relations with China for many years. It is not surprising that he has such a position and remarks.

After this interview was published, it caused quite a response in China.

The reason is not because Kensazaburo Oe’s criticism of his motherland, but because of his conversation with reporters at the end of the interview.

"Reporter: I heard that before the release of "Rabe Diary" in Japan, Mr. Lin Chaoyang made a special call to you.

Kensalo Oe: Yes, Lin Sang hopes that Japanese writers with conscience can speak for "Rabe's Diary" and those unjust souls who died in vain more than 60 years ago. This is one of the few things we can do.

Reporter: Since you mentioned your relationship with Mr. Lin Chaoyang, I would like to ask a little bit of a question. You won the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1994. It is rumored that Mr. Lin Chaoyang has been shortlisted for the Nobel Prize in Literature many times over the years, but has never won the prize.

Do you think he has the chance to win the award? Or, when do you think Chinese writers will receive the Nobel Prize in Literature?

Kensalo Oe: The only obstacle to Lin Sang winning the Nobel Prize in Literature is his age. As early as when I first read "Crossing the Kanto" 13 years ago, I knew that he would win the prize sooner or later.

I have been paying attention to Lin Sang's works over the years, and now I am more convinced of this.

But I am just like you, the only uncertain thing is time.”

Kenzaburo Oe's exclusive interview spread throughout the Chinese cultural circle in just a few days. The first thing that surprised many people in this interview was that behind the release of "Rabe Diary" in Japan and achieved a good box office results, Lin Chaoyang was actually influenced by Lin.

The second surprise was that Kensalo Oe, a great writer who has been recognized by the Nobel Prize, actually admired Lin Chaoyang so much.

Many people couldn't help but think of the optimism of the famous Japanese scholar Fujii Shimozo at the beginning of the year for Lin Chaoyang's Nobel Prize.
