The United States suddenly announced the largest iron evidence of the ownership of the Diaoyu Islands! The world was in an uproar, and the American "The Truth about the Diaoyu Islands" made the Japanese media collectively speechless. Be sure to invite patriotic compatriots to see!
From the perspective of a Westerner, Hollywood director Ribby said a fair word to the world: the Diaoyu Islands belong to China. For this truth, most Japanese mainstream media chose to collectively aphasia, and only a few media published a briefing.
Ribby did not shoot "The Truth about Diaoyu Islands" for money or to speak for the Chinese government, but out of the artist's due conscience and a responsible attitude towards history. There is an old saying in China: "The truth cannot be fake." It means that no matter how much you cover it up or how clever you are, you can't cover up the truth. The same is true for the issue of sovereignty over the Diaoyu Islands.
The documentary "The Truth about the Diaoyu Islands", shot by German-born Hollywood director Christie Ribby, has premiered in the United States and China one after another, drawing attention from the outside world. This 40-minute documentary, through detailed historical materials, comprehensively sorts out the ins and outs of the dispute over the Diaoyu Islands, and expounds the fact that "the Diaoyu Islands have belonged to China since ancient times".
The film also recorded the crimes committed by Japan during the war of aggression against China, including the Nanjing Massacre, and the 731 Unit used Chinese to conduct bacteria experiments. It also used a narration to call on the Japanese government to face up to history, apologize to the Chinese people for war crimes, and recognize that the Diaoyu Islands belong to China. . The film also criticized the United States for ignoring China's legitimate demands to take back the Diaoyu Islands when the "San Francisco Peace Treaty" was signed in 1951.
In order not to be considered "paid publicity", Ribby, 76, raised $500,000 to shoot the historical documentary independently. In order to strive for truth, he consulted a large number of historical materials with the rigor unique to the Germans, "libraries, archives, the Internet... Wherever you can find data, go there".
The film uses a lot of persuasive photo and video data, some of which are from the archives of the National Archives of the United States, as well as historical materials purchased from the film studio.
In addition, he also went to China's Nanjing Massacre Memorial Hall, Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall and other places to shoot on-site to testify the content of the film. In order to clarify the context of Sino-Japanese relations, Ribi even expanded his research horizon to the naval battle of Baijiangkou on the Korean Peninsula between Japan and the Tang Dynasty in 663 AD.
As for the reason for filming "The Truth about Diaoyu Islands", Ribby said: "As a German living in the United States, I feel very sad to see that the Western media always distort the coverage of China.
Especially on the Diaoyu Islands issue, no real information can be found through the Western media, which is related to the overall prejudice of the Western media against China. "I feel that I should do something to make up for the lack of Western media on the Diaoyu Islands issue. This is the original intention of my creation of "The Diaoyu Islands". "
Another important reason for making the film, Ribby said, was that he had been indignant that Japan had not apologized to China for its aggressive behavior.
He said: "Germany also did terrible things during World War II, but we will repent. In 1970, the then Federal German Chancellor Brandt went to the Polish Jewish Martyrdom Monument to kneel and apologize, which had a very positive impact on the Germans. .
I am personally very grateful for what Brandt has done, otherwise we will be cursed by the tragic memory of the past, which has always been there. Sadly, Japan has not changed. So many people ask me, why doesn't Japan apologize like you Germans? I don't know, so I hope they can face up and seriously reflect on this history. "The Truth about the Diaoyu Islands" was the first to premiere in Los Angeles, and the response was enthusiastic. Many American viewers said after watching the film that on the issue of the Diaoyu Islands, American newspapers, news agencies, TV stations and other media have almost the same tone. "The Truth about the Diaoyu Islands" " exposes Americans to fresh voices and gives people a different perspective on history.
In recent years, in order to take China's Diaoyu Islands as their own, some Japanese politicians have tried their best, from issuing postage stamps with the Diaoyu Islands, "relocating" some national household registrations to the island, and building lighthouses on the island; to staged "nationalization" " Farce, revision of textbook compilation guidelines, production of related promotional videos, and the establishment of a special website, etc., in order to achieve the purpose of confusing the audio-visual with the real.
From the perspective of a Westerner, Ribi said a fair word to the world: the Diaoyu Islands belong to China. For this truth, most Japanese mainstream media chose to collectively aphasia, and only a few media published a briefing. Some Japanese threw out "conspiracy theories" and questioned that Libi received money from Chinese people. As for collecting money, Ribby has already clarified.
Those who question Ribi may not understand that for a good artist, conscience and responsibility are more important than money. Libi did not shoot "The Truth about Diaoyu Islands" for money or to speak for the Chinese government, but out of the artist's due conscience and a responsible attitude towards history. In fact, there are many conscientious artists, historians, and writers like Libi, including the late professor of Kyoto University, Kiyo Inoue, and professor of Yokohama National University, Tadashi Murata.
They are not afraid of power and have the courage to tell the truth about the Diaoyu Islands. With a responsible attitude towards history, they spoke out what they should say as historians. This rigorous academic spirit deserves respect and learning from the world.
Even foreigners have fished for us. As a Chinese, it is not even more obligatory!
When you finish reading this article, I hope you can spread it out, spread some positive messages, and make the world a little more loving.
