Three hundred and fiftieth eight chapters shock fog nine

Subtitle of this chapter: Sima Qian in the film industry, a sound version of Taishigong.

……………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………………

"Mr. Yuan Yanshu often writes film scripts based on real history and reproduces real historical events as much as possible. No wonder he is praised as "Sima Qian of the film era".

However, he himself doesn't like this title very much, and often humbly said that he must not be compared with "Taishigong", at most it is "Yishishi (Pu Songling's self-proclaim)"...

"War Addict" is indeed adapted from real stories. Although it is unbelievable, there is indeed a South American mercenary named Raphael de Nojales in history who joined the troops of the Ottoman Turkish Empire.

And just like the plot in the film, he really ‘participated’ in the massacre of the Armenians.

Because of this movie, he himself became famous and was invited by DreamWorks to New York to attend the premiere of "War Addicts". He later wrote a memoir called "I, War Addicts".

This book was published by the World Women's Magazine and was the number one bestseller in non-fiction in the United States that year.

In this memoir, he described the Armenian massacre in a very detailed manner, which attracted widespread attention from people all over the world about this great tragedy in human history...

The plot of "War Addict" after the Armenian Holocaust is not very consistent with Nogales' own experience.

In fact, after arriving in Erzurum, Nojales finally got rid of this nightmare and was lucky enough to mobilize Palestine to become a security force stationed in the local area.

In 1917, under the command of General Erich von Farkinghan of the German Empire (the one nicknamed "Verdun Butcher"), he participated in the Ottoman Turkish attack on the Suez Canal. After the attack failed, he was ordered to block the British army in Gaza.

He was transferred back to the capital and stayed until his defeat. When the Allies' warships entered Istanbul, he sent another report to the War Ministry to demand his discharge, and this time the Ottoman Empire approved it.

Raphael de Nojales, the "war addict" World War I ended like this.

But in this movie, the hero participates in the Battle of Dardanell in 1915.

The Battle of Dardanelles is also called the Battle of Gallipoli, and this battle in Türkiye is called the Battle of Canakkale. This is a battle on the Gallipoli Peninsula in Türkiye during World War I.

It began with a naval operation of the British-French alliance, aiming to forcibly break into the Dardanelles, open up the Bosphorus, and then occupy Istanbul, the capital of the Ottoman Empire.

During this landing battle, 500,000 soldiers from the Allies crossed the ocean to the Gallipoli Peninsula. After nearly eleven months of battle, about 53,000 were left dead and 96,937 were injured.

The Dardanelles was the first landing operation with modern significance. But this risky military operation was the result of sloppy planning and wrong judgments. So a heavy mark was written in military history.

As we all know, the initiator or the first responsible person for this heavy move was Winston Churchill, who was then the Minister of the British Empire's Navy.

Then Mr. Yuan Yanshu, the screenwriter of "War Addict", was imprisoned by the British when he wrote this script, and it was Churchill who issued the arrest warrant.

So I don’t know if he intends to adapt this. And it is said that Churchill himself was furious after seeing this script..."

——Excerpt from "Writing History with Movies - Yuan Yanshu and His Historical Movies"

Tuesday, August 2, 1927.

"MINURS 5...you, you guys, what, military, intelligence, five,..."

"Two days... it took, too, all, all, all two, all..."

"This is a script...this is, terrible, one, drama, script..."

Churchill had a bad temper, but he was a gentleman from the British Empire after all, so he didn't swear much.

But this time he couldn't help it. After reading a thick stack of "confessions", he still specifically hacked his script, and a series of "F+D+S words" popped out of the mouth of the senior cabinet official.

He now also knows how popular "The Lonely of Famine" is in Ireland, and how popular the Irish people are after watching this movie.

And he even expected that this movie would definitely become popular all over the world, so that his beloved British Empire would definitely be criticized.

In short, it is already true that "The Lonely Girl in the Famine" will cause serious harm to the British Empire.

So Churchill, the old man, dared not think about how much harm "War Addict" would cause to the former Navy Secretary and the current Minister of Colonial Affairs of the British Empire.

In short, if this Chinese really shoots "War Addict" and then releases it around the world, he will definitely become a world-renowned waste snack.

If you don't swear, Churchill can be called a saint.

"K" and SAW are also a little guilty. They struggled for two days and finally made a script. This really seriously hurts the reputation and face of MI5.

Sir Kyle, who was responsible, had to bite the bullet and said, "His Excellency Churchill, you have instructed you not to leave any handles, so we have to use some 'indirect' means."

The torture expert at SAW also made a "professional" explanation: "His Excellency Churchill, these 'indirect' methods vary from person to person, and the object we met this time is strange..."

"Don't tell me this!"

Winston Churchill stared at them with his eyes narrowed and shouted sternly: "I just want the result, the result of the Chinese kidnapping the two princes..."

"Understand?"

At this time, he didn't care whether he had any handle or not. Should the MI5 take direct or indirect measures?

"Bang!"

The two members of MI5 put their heels together to make a crisp sound, and at the same time lowered their heads and said, "I understand, Lord Churchill!"

"Do you understand? In fact, novels like spy as the protagonist will definitely be very popular."

At this time, the people who interrogated Yuan Yanshu had already changed two shifts.

After all, these British agents do not have the physique of 17 o'clock, and they are still energetic just like him who can stay awake for days and nights. So they must take turns to interrogate.

Master Yuan, who was very energetic, met the recorder again.

The two of them are not acquaintance and are familiar with each other. Coincidentally, this guy is also a literary lover.

Actually, this is not surprising. Even if most agents a hundred years later are small intellectuals with diplomas, it is not surprising that a literary lover appears.

So Yuan Yan, who loves to be a teacher, suddenly became a literary mentor:

"For example, you can write a novel based on your own experience with British agents, and you can also write a series of novels..."

"Dr. Yuan, can I do it?"

"How could it not work?"
