Chapter 152 Interstellar Filmmaking (35)
Thanks to the filming of "The Queen's Dogs", Empress Wu Zetian, a figure who lived nearly 10,000 years ago, is once again in the limelight today, six or seven thousand years after the destruction of the earth.
Before the filming of "The Queen's Dogs" was about to be completed, a female reporter from Banana Entertainment conducted a simple interview on the street:
"Excuse me, do you know Wu Zetian?"
"Wu Zetian?" The young and fashionable urban white-collar worker looked at his watch, frowned and said, "I've never heard of it."
The old man with white hair shook his head and asked loudly: "Who? Is he the idol star who has become popular recently?"
The primary school student in school uniform raised his hand cutely, "I've heard of it! I've read in an extracurricular book that he can kill the ancient beast tiger with one punch. He is an amazing warrior!"
The female reporter twitched her lips and corrected: "Kid, you are probably talking about the story of Wu Song fighting the tiger. Wu Zetian was a female emperor, not Wu Song who fought the tiger."
After interviewing five or six people in a row, they all said they didn’t know Wu Zetian. The female reporter was inevitably a little discouraged and couldn’t help complaining to the camera: “Why don’t people nowadays care about history at all? After all, she is the only woman in ancient China. Emperor, why don’t many people know about it?”
The cameraman shrugged: "After all, the history of the Tang Dynasty is completely blank. Most of the records about Wu Zetian can be found in unofficial histories and literati's notes of the Ming and Qing Dynasties. They do not have strong authenticity. Many historians believe that the empress Wu Zetian is a figure created by later generations. It’s a folk myth and legend, and it doesn’t exist in real history.”
The female reporter immediately became unconvinced: "How come there isn't? Are these historian experts engaging in gender discrimination? Why, if you men are allowed to be emperors, it is impossible for us women to be emperors?"
A man in sportswear who happened to pass by heard the female reporter's question and answered for the photographer: "This is not gender discrimination, but in the ancient patriarchal society with strict classes, men are extremely superior to women. Women pay attention to the three obediences and four virtues, and have no independent personality and personality." In terms of social status, it is impossible to become an emperor without going out of the door. Therefore, the fact that Wu Zetian became the emperor is probably a folk myth. It is not even sure whether Wu Zetian exists. "
The female reporter was shocked and immediately raised the microphone and pointed it at the man: "Sir, you seem to be very knowledgeable about history? Can I ask about your occupation?"
"I am a teacher in the History Department of Kyungseong University."
"Then do you know about "The Queen's Dogs" directed by Shi Jing, which tells the story of Wu Zetian's career as emperor? What do you think of it?"
It's okay that the female reporter didn't mention it. When she mentioned the man, she immediately frowned, with a look of disgust in her eyes, and scolded the camera: "It's just nonsense, I don't know what it is! The historical community has not yet concluded whether Wu Zetian exists or not, so the director said Making remakes under the guise of telling true history, without any bottom line, misleading the audience, and instilling false history into the audience. This bad behavior of using fabrication as official history should be resisted and banned! "
In the afternoon of that day, a video of a teacher from Beijing University criticizing "The Queen's Dogs" was trending on Xingbo real-time search, causing an uproar on the Internet.
Mo Mingrui naturally also saw this hot search.
Under Banana Entertainment's Starblog, where the video was posted, netizens' comments fell into three categories.
One is to express support for the teacher’s remarks in the video:
[The construction site needs someone to argue the case: That’s right! Today's film and television works make up all kinds of magic and distort history openly. This is serious historical nihilism! The state should take control! 】
[I want to see the sea: I also know that Wu Zetian cannot exist at all. How could a woman become the emperor in a feudal society? Does the director have any brains in treating folklore as official history? 】
[Chicken feet with pickled peppers are so delicious: I checked it out and heard that women at that time had to bind their feet. If the husband died, the wife would commit suicide. If she ran away, she would be captured by the family and brought back to Chentang! If you have an affair, you have to ride on an iron donkey to parade through the streets and dip into a pig cage. It’s terrible! I probably understand why people at that time made up myths and legends about Wu Zetian's woman becoming emperor. This probably represents a beautiful longing of many women. 】
[Nanquan Dad: Haha, a slut like Wu Zetian deserves to be remade? Ye Shili said that she spent one night with ten men, drank in the wine pool and played meat in the forest, and played music every night. What is there worth photographing about such a disgusting woman? 】
One is for Wu Zetian:
[Bang Jing has no parents: Bah! Do you know what it means to have no smoke without smoke? Since this person is recorded in unofficial histories and literati notes, she must exist! Otherwise, those men are so full that they can make up the history of a woman becoming emperor? Does this do any good to maintain patriarchal dominance? 】
[Suddenly I want to herd sheep: Hey, historians still dare not say for sure that Wu Zetian did not exist, but you two solved the case one by one. It’s really awesome. 】
[Falling in love is not as good as studying: I don’t understand why filming Wu Zetian is historical nihilism? ? If this statement is followed, the number of historical TV dramas currently being broadcast would have to be cut in half! 】
[His Majesty the Emperor Wu, please whip me hard with the whip: Whoever claims it will give evidence. Since you think Wu Zetian does not exist, then come up with evidence! All talk without evidence is just hooliganism. And what’s wrong with how many men the Empress slept with? Why is it that the male emperor is allowed to have 3,000 concubines in his harem, but our female emperor is not allowed to have ten men at night? How is our empress’ kidney? 】
In addition to the two factions who are at odds with each other, there is also a more Buddhist centrist faction who does not care at all whether Wu Zetian exists or not.
[Passerby: The movie hasn't been released yet, what's there to argue about? If it's good, go watch it, if it's not good, don't watch it, isn't it simple? ]
But such rational centrists are a minority after all, and most netizens still quarreled over their positions.
Mo Mingrui frowned.
He didn't understand why so many people were unwilling to believe that Wu Zetian ascended the throne.
Although there is a lack of official historical evidence, it is all some jokes from Ming and Qing and modern unofficial history, but this also provides unlimited imagination space for future generations!
Why are they so conservative and stubborn?
It is true that women had a low status and were like slaves during the Ming and Qing dynasties, but this does not mean that the status of women in the Tang Dynasty was also low!
If you want to know the level of civilization of a country, you might as well look at the status of women in that country.
Just imagine, how open-minded, tolerant and vibrant would a dynasty that allows women to become emperors be?
How brilliant and magnificent would the civilization born in this dynasty be?
Wouldn't such a Tang Dynasty make people yearn for it?
Why do some people who grew up with modern scientific education have such outdated and backward ideas, and are not as open-minded and bold as the ancients?
The ancients believed that women could become emperors, so why don’t people today believe it? Are people today not as good as the ancients?
Mo Mingrui thought for a long time and suddenly understood something.
Sure enough, there is no necessary connection between the level of knowledge and the openness or narrowness of thought, just like a society cannot eliminate the soil of prejudice even if it is more civilized.
Now he only prays that Director Shi will not be influenced by online public opinion, and will shoot "The Queen's Dog" with his heart, and finally give the audience a satisfactory answer, otherwise these keyboard warriors who are cursing will find more reasons to attack.
As for the current scolding...
Mo Mingrui is not very anxious, because he believes that it will soon subside.
CCTV Documentary Channel is cooperating with Le Jing to shoot a documentary about Wu Zetian. Can they sit back and watch Wu Zetian being smeared like this?
As expected, at noon the next day, CCTV Documentary Channel released a blog post:
[At present, there is no unified view in the historical community on whether Wu Zetian was the emperor, but most historians agree with this for three reasons... Not believing in rumors or spreading them is our basic principle as contemporary Chinese. ]
This blog post did calm the debate to a certain extent and prevented the war from expanding further.
However, the nitpickers and keyboard warriors do not understand Chinese.
For the nitpickers and keyboard warriors, official means shady dealings, authority means fraud, and truth means fallacy.
Who is the official? It can't match their inner adherence to justice and truth! And is what the official says necessarily right? The other party is just a documentary channel, what does it know about Wu Zetian! They are the people who know Wu Zetian best in the world!
Therefore, on the relevant forums, this matter has been very popular, and there have been more than a dozen hot posts that have been torn thousands of floors. The fighting power of a nitpicker is about equal to 500 geese.
The online scolding is fierce, but it can't affect Le Jing and the crew.
In order to calm the actors' emotions, hone their acting skills, and focus on their inner world, Le Jing specially arranged a signal blocker near the crew, prohibiting all the actors from surfing the Internet. If they are bored, they can read thousands of history books in the crew, but they cannot surf the Internet.
So those nitpickers and keyboard warriors are destined to throw their eyebrows and eyes to the blind, wasting time and energy in vain.
…
On December 15, "The Queen's Royal Dog" was officially completed.
Under the operation of Bai's Entertainment, the premiere date is set on January 20, and it will be screened in several universities in Beijing. At that time, film critics and some fans will be invited to watch it. If the response is good, it will be released during the Spring Festival.
At the same time, "The Mystery of Empress Wu Zetian" co-produced by Le Jing and Song Minghan will be on the documentary channel during the prime time of the first day of the Lunar New Year.
The New Year of the 6018th year of the Star Calendar is destined to tremble for the legendary life of Empress Wu.
…
"The Queen's Royal Dog" will be screened in its own school!
Liu Yinxiu was so overwhelmed by the news that he felt dizzy and trembling all over.
Fortunately, he hadn't graduated yet!!
Fortunately, the student union had some official free tickets!
Liu Yinxiu pestered and used both soft and hard tactics, serving the grandson of the student union president and serving him tea and water for two weeks, and finally got a free ticket!
The moment he held the free ticket, Liu Yinxiu was so excited that his eyes were full of tears. It was not easy! If he had used one-tenth of his skills to lick... No, to chase a girlfriend, he wouldn't have been single for four years in college!
Now that he has the ticket... it's time to do it.
He has hesitated for so long... It's not his style to be procrastinating... And he was also unhappy to be sneaky all the time.
He deliberately downloaded a beauty software, and then re-edited his free ticket photo, added filters and stickers, and then uploaded it to his big account with hundreds of thousands of Xingbo fans.
[Liu Yinxiu: I have concealed it for so long, I will admit it, I am actually a fan of the old scenery. 【Photo of the gift ticket】
After posting this post, he immediately went offline, not daring to read the comments below.
He touched his chest guiltily, and felt the feeling of coming out of the closet without any guidance.
Alas, the tears I shed now are the water that entered my brain at that time.
Actually... if you think about it carefully, he didn't cause any trouble to Jiushi Fengjing at that time, but helped him get on three hot searches for free. When he called to apologize, Jiushi Fengjing actually thanked him!
And his Xingbo has been closed for so long, his fans must have forgotten him, maybe few people saw his Xingbo.
Thinking of this, Liu Yinxiu suddenly felt better and didn't feel so guilty.
Liu Yinxiu, who quit Xingbo, didn't know that an hour later, a Xingbo hot search rose rapidly, and the hot search was called "The highest level of anti-pretending loyalty."
