Codex of the Old Gods: I Have a World

Chapter 1091: The Wronged Chinese

During the Chinese New Year, Zhao Chuanxin delivered it to every place as usual.

He used to find it tedious, but now he enjoys it.

I just heard my son calling me dad in a baby voice, and then played with building blocks with the fourth child. When I returned to Lubin Prefecture, I had to be tortured by the third child, and went to The Hague, Netherlands to have some fun with the eldest child.

It is worth mentioning that the Mexican state of Constantinople now has a new festival - Chinese New Year.

The provincial government organized entertainment for the people.

What makes the people of Constantine State most happy is that the government will organize an outdoor movie screening on that day. Although it is a movie made by Chinese, it has Spanish subtitles and is an action movie, so it is extremely popular.

Free.

After watching the movie, Mexican children would also scream “Ada Ada” along with Chen Zhen.

However, an animated film, "Journey to the West", was shown simultaneously in China and Southeast Asia.

In modern times, making an animated film is much more difficult than making a movie.

If it were done by drawing, this cartoon would require at least 400,000 original drawings.

The world's first animated film was called "Humorous Faces of Funny People", which was produced in 1906.

Forget about the image quality.

The animated film "Journey to the West" was directed by Zhao Chuanxin, but was completed by Xingyue alone.

Apart from the voice actors, the only staff members are Zhao Chuanxin and Xingyue.

Zhao Chuanxin was responsible for designing the images and storyboards. Xingyue gave the movements on the True Vision Crystal, and then the shots were completed with a special lens.

It's not drawn at all.

As usual, Zhao Chuanxin asked photographers to take pictures everywhere, such as the Thousand Buddha Temple in Xixian County, Shanxi Province, the Yungang Grottoes and the Hanging Temple in Datong, the Guandi Temple in Yuncheng, etc.

There are so many places to draw inspiration from.

The images of the little demons, leaders, various demon kings and other characters are mostly borrowed from the "Classic of Mountains and Seas", and some of them are extremely exaggerated.

Then Zhao Chuanxin carried out the processing design.

Even if he didn't draw 400,000 original drawings, the design alone took up a lot of his time.

If for no other reason, just to let his children watch an above-par cartoon and let them experience the fun that Zhao Chuanxin had in his childhood.

On the first day of the new year, cinemas across the country will screen the film simultaneously.

The first show was screened at Zhao Chuanxin’s home in Lugang Town.

Fortunately, his villa in Lugang Town is big enough, otherwise it would not be able to accommodate dozens of children.

"Shut up, the show is about to start."

"What is a cartoon?"

"Shut up, shut up. Just shut up."

Zhao Zhengze, who was in Zhao Chuanxin's arms, looked around because of the noise, his big eyes that could see right and wrong rolling around.

Zhao Chuanxin sat on a small stool, and Zhao Zhengze rested his hands on his legs. Zhao Chuanxin covered his son's ears and yelled, "Shut up."

The scene finally calmed down.

As the picture appeared, the children present started shouting again.

Because what is on the screen are not real actors, but colorful and lifelike paintings.

"Wow……"

"Shut up."

At the beginning of the cartoon, there are four children, one boy and three girls.

They are Zhao Da, Zhao Er, Zhao San and Zhao Si.

They have big heads and small bodies, round eyes and a pleasing appearance.

Zhao Da is a brave girl. She took her younger brother and sister and said she wanted to visit the places where Sun Wukong fought monsters in the past.

When the adults saw this scene, they all shook their heads and laughed.

The story of Journey to the West is fake. Even if Xuanzang's journey to the West is repeated, it will not be as magnificent as Journey to the West. It may just be a story about a monk's miserable journey to the West.

The four children set off with their bags on their backs.

The first place they came to was the Heavenly Palace.

Zhao Da explained to his younger brothers and sisters how Sun Wukong caused havoc in the Heavenly Palace.

The scene changed and Sun Wukong appeared.

Sun Wukong did not scratch his head, but looked majestic in his armor.

"Ah? The Pagoda-Bearing Heavenly King Li is so majestic!"

"The Dragon King of the East China Sea looks so scary!"

"Look, Sun Wukong is riding his horse through the clouds. How amazing..."

The next ones are Chang'an, Wuzhi Mountain, Yingchoujian, Guanyin Temple, Black Wind Mountain, Gao Laozhuang...

The story is too long to be told in its entirety.

Zhao Chuanxin only seizes high-energy moments.

Sun Wukong wreaked havoc in the Heavenly Palace, subdued the Third Dragon Prince, Zhu Bajie, and Monk Sha, and fought against the black bear monster as sturdy as a hill and the yellow wind monster with a pointed face and monkey cheeks...

"Wow... Zhu Bajie is so tall..."

"Monk Sha is so scary..."

Miao Cuihua was shocked: "How was this filmed?"

The children screamed and the adults were amazed.

It’s nothing, it’s just too cool.

It is not a simple picture like a stick figure drawing, but every hair is so realistic, yet you know it is not real.

The lenses designed by Zhao Chuanxin are absolutely reassuring.

Everyone thought that the Thousand-Armed Guanyin Hall in Guanyin Temple was shocking enough.

But when Leiyin Temple appeared, they realized what was even more shocking.

There are five main Buddhas in Leiyin Temple: Medicine Buddha, Amitabha Buddha, Sakyamuni Buddha, Vairocana Buddha and Maitreya Buddha. Each main Buddha has a Bodhisattva attendant on his side. Surrounding them are the ten great disciples, six little samaneras, the Glazed Realm, the Six Desire Heavens, the Ten Great Vidyarajas, and heavenly musicians.

The main Buddha is not the only protagonist. Even the lineup of celestial musicians in the picture is amazing.

Some wear crowns, some have plump faces, some wear long skirts, some are adorned with necklaces and bracelets, and some hold a pipa in their hands. All of them have graceful postures and enchanting figures, dancing and flying in the heavenly palace.

The major halls are magnificent and exquisite, with pavilions and towers stacked in an orderly manner.

Its colors are bright and dazzling.

Jiang Mingxin grabbed Zhao Chuanxin's arm and said, "Master, you must have been to Leiyin Temple, right?"

If he had never been there, how could he have restored Leiyin Temple in such detail?

Zhao Chuanxin found that Miao Cuihua, Zhao Zhongyi, Gao Li, Liu Baogui and other parents who were watching cartoons with their children were staring at him.

He grinned: "You still underestimate the ability of our ancient craftsmen. Wait until you go to the Thousand Buddha Temple in Shanxi, and you will understand."

As a country with thousands of years of civilization, there are so many things that can shock people, so many that foreigners are amazed and dare not underestimate them.

This is also the reason why before the war, foreigners were worried that they could not defeat the Qing Dynasty.

The Central Plains culture is so brilliant, what does it have to offer? How can they not feel guilty?

Clinker... hehe.

The animation is coming to an end.

Zhao Er said he wanted to be Sun Wukong. Zhao Da tapped his forehead and said, "There is only one Sun Wukong, but you can be a hero of our time and drive away the foreigners like Sun Wukong drove away the monsters..."

Zhao San jumped up and said, "Sister, I understand, I understand. Sun Wukong is shorter than the monsters but he can defeat them, just like we seem weak now but we can defeat the foreigners in the end."

Master Zhao nodded: "That's right."

Zhao Si said quietly, "Brother and sister, you all want to fight monsters, but you need someone to carry the burden. Let me carry the burden."

Zhao Da touched Zhao Si's head and said, "Of course, the people who carry heavy loads and fight monsters are equally remarkable. They are both unsung heroes."

Zhao Zhongyi, Gao Li, Liu Baogui and others were happy.

Sure enough, the familiar part of smuggling connivance finally came.

If there is no personal agenda, it is definitely not a movie directed by Zhao Chuanxin.

The fact that Zhao Chuanxin can move around with the power of faith during the New Year's Day has a lot to do with his suppression of the grassland rebellion and the release of "The Old Land of Journey to the West".

Haihai's power of faith is for him to squander.

Zhao Chuanxin accompanied the child in Lugang Town, then went to Hong Kong Island to accompany the child, and then returned to Lubin Prefecture.

After arriving at Lubin Prefecture, someone from the capital came to deliver a letter of appointment, appointing Zhao Chuanxin as the Minister of Education. Zhao Chuanxin almost laughed out loud.

Fortunately, Yuan Weiting and others were able to think of it.

When the visitor saw Zhao Chuanxin pursed his lips and said nothing, he was so scared that he didn't dare to speak.

He thought: Are you going to take the call or not? Just give me a straight answer. I have never felt so much pressure in my life.

Zhao Chuanxin handed the letter of authorization to Yao Jia, left without saying a word, and went back to watch cartoons with Rebecca Levy, Zhao Laosan and Yao Bing.

After walking around here, Zhao Chuanxin teleported Quetshalan and rode the third-generation dragon to The Hague at lightning speed to watch cartoons with Boss Zhao.

He almost vomited after watching this cartoon he directed.

There were only the father and daughter watching the cartoon, so the feeling was similar to watching TV at home in later generations.

"Dad, the cartoons are good, please make a few more for me." Zhao Lingjun sat on a small stool and turned back to Zhao Chuanxin and bared his teeth: "Zhao Da is me, right? Then where are Zhao Er, Zhao San, Zhao Si and the others?"

Zhao Chuanxin was drinking water when he choked: "Ahem, this isn't you."

"Okay, then I'll ask my mother."

There was no way Zhao Chuanxin would let her do that: "Ahem, actually, they are all in China."

Zhao Lingjun's eyes lit up: "I want to go to China to find my brothers and sisters."

In fact, for Zhao Chuanxin, it is not a bad idea to take Zhao Lingjun around.

But how should we introduce her to Miao Cuihua, Rebecca Levy and Gulizar?

There is no need for introduction. As soon as Boss Zhao called out "Dad", the truth immediately became clear.

"You are still young, let's wait until you grow up." Zhao Chuanxin said seriously, "Besides, if you come back crying after leaving the Netherlands, let's not bother with it for now."

"Dad, I will definitely not cry this time. I won't cry as long as I see my brothers and sisters."

"Oh? I don't really believe it."

"It's true." Zhao Lingjun shook Zhao Chuanxin's arm and begged.

"Oh, I'll think about it."

"What are you still considering? If you continue to consider it, you will miss the best time to play with them, just like in the cartoons."

Zhao Chuanxin's eyes turned: "But everything has a price. What price are you willing to pay for this?"

"I..." Zhao Lingjun was speechless.

Zhao Chuanxin said, "How about this, if you can behave yourself for a month and not cause any trouble to Margot and the others, Dad will take you to see your brothers and sisters."

Zhao Lingjun is a brave young man who is not afraid of tigers: "It's a deal."

……

The second day of the Chinese New Year should be a festive day.

The Qing dynasty collapsed, and the people

The country was established.

Chinese people all over the world celebrate.

The overseas Chinese in Surabaya, Dutch Indonesia, were no exception.

They left their homes, took to the streets to hold rallies, raised the five-colored flags and set off firecrackers to celebrate.

The film company opened by Yao Jia not only conducts business in various parts of the country, but also expands its business to the Southeast Asia area.

The overseas Chinese in Surabaya took their children to watch the cartoon "Journey to the West" yesterday.

Come out and celebrate today.

Happy things happen one after another.

This would have been nothing, but the Dutch colonial authorities actually sent military and police to interfere with the celebrations of overseas Chinese, killing three, injuring more than a dozen, and arresting more than a hundred people.

The celebrating overseas Chinese were stunned.

We celebrate and you shoot and kill people?

Angry local Chinese closed their shops and went on strike in protest.

The local Chinese expatriates shouted to the Dutch colonial authorities: "Don't you know what happened in Torreón, Mexico? How dare you do this to us? Although we live overseas, we are not rootless. Aren't you afraid of Zhao Chuanxin?"

What Zhao Chuanxin did in Mexico was like a shot in the arm for overseas Chinese all over the world.

They can also stand up straight.

Not to mention, the local Chinese actually frightened the Dutch colonial authorities’ military and police after they made their appeal.

But soon, their superior came out and shouted: "Who are you trying to scare? Zhao Chuanxin is our Dutch king's husband!"

Not only did the Dutch colonial authorities not release the people, they also sent people to force the Chinese to open the market and arrested more than a thousand people again.

It was the first time for many people to hear that Zhao Chuanxin was the husband of the King of the Netherlands.

They were skeptical.

But seeing that the Dutch spoke so seriously and firmly, they dared not disbelieve it.

So I could only call home to ask for protection.

When Sun Gongwu rebelled, the main funds came from overseas Chinese.

Now that this has happened, Sun Gongwu cannot just ignore it.

But he was not the big boss, so he could only ask Foreign Minister Wang Chonghui to call Yuan Weiting and tell him about the atrocities committed by the Dutch military and police.

What's the result?

Yuan Weiting not only ignored it, but also told Wang Jingwei: "The news must be blocked. Our country has not yet been recognized by the powers. If the news leaks out and Zhao Chuanxin gets to know it, who knows how much trouble it will cause. The top priority is to seek stability and not act recklessly."

He had stolen the fruits of victory from Sun Gongwu and others to gain power.

As for whether Sun Gongwu owes favors to overseas Chinese, why should Yuan Weiting care about it?

The authorities represented by Yuan Weiting's indifference to the injustices faced by overseas Chinese has disheartened Chinese compatriots in Surabaya.

"It's fine that Zhao Chuanxin is the husband of the Dutch king, but why doesn't the country care about us anymore?"

“Who else can we rely on?”

Wang Chonghui was also very angry.

He had sent a sealed telegram to the capital, but it fell on deaf ears and there was no news at all.

He jumped up and down in the mansion and cursed, but it was of no use.

At this time, someone gave him an idea: "General, I have a plan."

Wang Chonghui, with bubbles on the corners of his mouth, hurriedly said, "Hurry up and tell me."

First of all, he was extremely worried because overseas Chinese were being humiliated and many of them were being wrongfully imprisoned.

Secondly, the interim government

The government had just been established, and this was the first diplomatic incident. If he failed to handle it properly, not only would he be infamous as the Minister of Foreign Affairs, but the new policy would also be infamous.

The prestige of the government will also be damaged.

From now on, not only will outsiders not recognize them, but even their own people probably won’t recognize them either.

His subordinates told him: "Why not tell the Overseas Chinese Federation the telegram contact information of the Xuantian Sect in Hong Kong Island, and let the Overseas Chinese Federation privately tell the overseas Chinese in Surabaya. Once Zhao Chuanxin gets the news, with his hot temper, I'm afraid he will not sit idly by and watch the overseas Chinese in Surabaya suffer."

Since Yuan Weiting didn't call back, he also ordered the news to be blocked.

It would be better to use external force to open this gap, and then we will have to resort to diplomacy.

Diplomacy based on iron and blood is always better than begging others humbly.

Wang Chonghui's eyes lit up: "That's it!"

……

The fifth day of the new year.

Zhao Chuanxin was watching small cards with a group of relatives and friends in Lugang Town.

This kind of cards are made of celluloid, long and narrow, like playing cards but thinner than playing cards, with characters from the Water Margin printed on them. There are three suits: Wan, Suo, and Tong. In fact, it is mahjong, and the playing method is similar to that of mahjong.

There were four tables of people playing cards on the kang in Gao Li's house.

Some people play poker, while others look at the small cards.

Zhao Zhongyi, Zhang Daquan, Erfeizi, Wang Long, Zhang Dazhui and others filled the big hole.

Miao Cuihua, Liu Jiahui, Liu Baogui's wife, and Zhao Zhongyi's wife looked at the small cards.

Zhao Chuanxin, Liu Baogui, Gao Li and Zhu Jianye sat together to play small cards.

They were having a great time when Jiang Mingxin rushed in angrily: "Big Brother, you guys have been playing for several days, and all you do is play cards all day long."

She was in another room watching a group of children crawling on the kang.

They also have to change their diapers from time to time.

"Girl, you don't understand this." Zhao Chuanxin hugged Jiang Mingxin and said, "Look, there are Song Jiang and Shi Qian on it. What we are playing is not cards, but the destiny of the Song Dynasty!"

The crowd roared with laughter.
