Chapter 77: A blog that stirred up a hornet's nest
"Sun Jun, the commander of the personal guard camp, is brave and careful, loyal and dedicated, and has made great contributions in protecting me."
Qin Hui, played by Uncle Dong, raised his voice and announced in front of all the soldiers, "A reward of a thousand gold coins, and an immediate promotion to the chief steward of the Prime Minister's Office!"
Here, Lin Yicheng made a change. In the original drama, there was a sentence "first-rank official position" after "reward of a thousand gold coins", which was deleted by Lin Yicheng.
There shouldn’t be too many historical inaccuracies in the original play.
Sometimes Lin Yicheng doesn’t know how to complain. How could Zhang Yimou not notice such a huge mistake?
Sure enough, I can’t tell a story!
He is just the chief steward of the prime minister's office, how can he be a first-rank official?
As the name suggests, the position of Chief Manager of the Prime Minister's Office refers to Qin Hui's retainers and aides. He is not a regular official of the court and does not hold a rank.
What was the status of a first-rank official in the Song Dynasty? It was a rank that only the three great masters, three junior officials, and the prime minister could hold.
A retainer or aide is of the same rank as his master, and he doesn't want to live anymore?
Besides, even if Qin Hui had great power, he didn't have the power to promote a low-level general to the first rank! This was a power only the emperor had!
If Qin Hui dared to do this, the soldiers present would kill him on the spot!
Because this is treason, a serious crime that will lead to the confiscation of property and extermination of the entire clan!
……
"My hair is disheveled with anger, I lean on the railing, and the rain has stopped." Sun Jun, played by Lin Yicheng, follows Qin Hui, stands on the balcony, and recites Yue Fei's "Man Jiang Hong" loudly.
The message was passed down by messengers from inside the courtyard to outside.
"Thirty years of fame and glory are dust and dirt, eight thousand miles of journey are clouds and moon..."
"Drive a long chariot and break through the Helan Mountain Pass."
"The ambition is to eat the meat of Huns when they are hungry, and to drink the blood of Huns when they are thirsty."
"Be from scratch, clean up the old mountains and rivers, overturned Que."
For a moment, thousands of soldiers and horses recited together, scabbards hit shields, making clanging sounds, and the sky and the earth changed color.
Zhang Da and others fought one after another, even at the cost of their own lives, to ensure that Yue Fei's last words would be passed down. Why?
Since Yue Fei's tragic death, the Yue Family Army, an invincible army that was always victorious in battles, has suffered deaths and dispersed.
Only a group of lonely ghosts are left wandering in the world.
They want this poem to see the light of day again so that they will have spiritual sustenance and soul, and no longer be walking corpses.
They also hope that their descendants will be able to inherit Marshal Yue’s will, march north and recover the lost territories.
Only in this way can their years of sacrifice and blood not be in vain. Only in this way can we comfort the spirit of Marshal Yue!
……
Standing on the balcony, Lin Yicheng's eyes were moist. This was not acting, but real emotion.
In his previous life, his ancestors were all soldiers. They fought against the Japanese invaders, went to Korea, and fought back against Vietnam in self-defense.
In this life, both Old Lin and Lin Yicheng’s grandfather came down from the battlefield.
Having been a descendant of military blood in both of his lives, he could naturally understand the dedication and sacrifices that soldiers make.
"What a great script and great show!" Uncle Dong also wiped his eyes. He felt sincerely proud that he could participate in such a movie.
"Yes, this is indeed a good play." Lin Yicheng said, with another word in his mind that he hadn't said out loud: a good play must naturally have good box office results to match.
"Why didn't Sun Jun kill Qin Hui in the end? So many people died, but the biggest villain is still alive and well."
Uncle Dong was a little confused about this. Although the lines said that he should live and bear the infamy for the rest of his life, it still didn't make sense.
"I think so too, but if Qin Hui is really killed, do you think this movie can still pass the review?"
"I think it's simple." Uncle Dong patted his forehead.
Lin Yicheng also thought about letting Sun Jun kill Qin Hui directly. That would definitely be a climax, making the audience cheer continuously and letting them vent their anger.
However, it doesn’t work and the review will never pass it. This is called “historical nihilism”!
You can let Qin Hui fall in love in the movie, even with a man, but you cannot let him die and you cannot change his historical ending.
……
Today's wrap-up party wasn't too lively.
Firstly, there were fewer people, and secondly, everyone was deeply touched by the last scene.
After eating and drinking, everyone dispersed.
A little drunk, Lin Yicheng returned to the room.
Turning on the computer, he wanted to write something on his blog.
"Today, the filming of 'Man Jiang Hong' was officially completed. When we were shooting the last scene, many people in the crew, including me, couldn't help crying."
……
"Here, we pay tribute to the countless heroes and martyrs who sacrificed their lives in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression and the War of Liberation!"
"… I also salute the heroes who have fought against foreign enemies for the Chinese nation for thousands of years!" "I will never regret joining China in this life, and I will still be a Chinese in the next life!"
After sending it, Lin Yicheng simply rinsed himself and fell into a deep sleep.
While he was sleeping, he naturally had no idea what kind of storm his blog post had caused.
……
Now is 2006, the era when public intellectuals, American cents, Japanese magazines, and spiritual foreigners are most rampant!
Just a few years ago, a group of young talents and university geniuses, led by Yu, openly wrote a letter to the President of the United States. The title of the letter was "Tonight, we are all Americans!"
The words used are so flattering and disgusting, it's simply nauseating!
Damn it, if you want to be Americans, don't drag us along! Why do you represent us?
In the eyes of this group of public intellectuals, Americans, and Japanese magazine readers, Lin Yicheng's blog post is a provocation to them and a declaration of war against them!
So, that night, these people launched a massive condemnation of Lin Yicheng on their blogs.
When Lin Yicheng woke up the next day, the noise had intensified.
No longer limited to blogs, public intellectuals can be seen everywhere in bulletin boards, forums, and even in some media.
In their writings, Lin Yicheng became a running dog of the government, a scum of the class, and someone who deserved to be killed by everyone!
To be honest, Lin Yicheng himself was a little confused. He was drunk last night, and his thinking was a little slow. He completely forgot what the current Internet environment is like.
But now that things have come to this, Lin Yicheng has no regrets.
Calls came one after another, from parents and relatives, Han Sanye, Xie Xiaojing, Wang Hongwei, close media and so on.
Without exception, all the questions he asked were about his next plans.
Now that he has gotten into trouble, Lin Yicheng will naturally not be afraid of backing down.
Fight!
In particular, his godfather also called him, and his words were full of praise for his blog.
Moreover, he also revealed that the higher-ups have long been dissatisfied with those public intellectuals and wanted to take action to discipline them.
This time, Lin Yicheng's move was an accident and met the wishes of his superiors, who will take this opportunity to take action.
Although there are some things that godfather didn't say, Lin Yicheng could think of them himself.
Look at the quality of today’s young representatives!
Especially Han Han, who would criticize the system today and the government tomorrow. He was always jumping up and down, opposing everything.
Are you satisfied with the above?
It just so happened that when Lin Yicheng spoke out at this time, the higher-ups would naturally go with the flow and establish Lin Yicheng as a role model, letting the public know that this is what the youth representatives of the new era should be like!
……
So, Lin Yicheng wrote another blog.
"Unexpectedly, the essay I wrote last night caused such a stir."
"I was shocked, but also found it funny and sad."
"What's funny is that some people are clowns and don't know it, or they know they are clowns but enjoy it."
"It is sad that some people have lost their faith and belief, and have become thieves and robbers."
"Back then, Mr. Lu Xun used his pen as a sword to awaken the Chinese people's backbone and blood that had been lost for a hundred years."
"Now that the master has passed away, these evil spirits have come out again to stir up trouble and bring disaster to the world."
"I am not Mr. Sun, and I don't have his ambition and courage. But I have a conscience as a Chinese."
"Why did they attack me? It's because they are afraid. They know from the beginning that they are living in a lie they have woven, and they are afraid that this veil of illusion will be exposed."
"Their fear is that they are not only blind to the world, but also trying to deceive others, afraid that the world will see that the real world is not what they portray it to be."
"They are even more afraid that more people will see through their true colors and stop following them blindly, making them lose their usefulness and worthless, and it will be difficult for them to return to their former luxurious life of drinking and partying.
"What they fear even more is that when all this happens, they will be despised by the world. Countless people will point at their spines and scold them as traitors and scum! The infamy will make it impossible for them to live uprightly anymore, and their descendants will be ashamed of them!"
"As I said in the lines of "Man Jiang Hong", don't these Qin Hui really know that they will be infamous for eternity and kneel in humiliation before Yue Fei's statue forever?"
"They know it very well, and because they know it very well, they are afraid, they are panic-stricken, and they can't wait to jump out, using pale and powerless words and all kinds of noisy shouting to cover up the fear in their hearts."
"Finally, let me quote another poem by the great man, 'Man Jiang Hong'."
"In this small world, a few flies hit the wall.
Buzzing, a few screams, a few sobs.
The ants are attracted by the locust tree and exaggerate the country, but it is not easy for the earthworm to shake the tree.
……
We must wipe out all pests and make them invincible. "
