Chapter 170 Interstellar Filmmaking (53)



In October of the interstellar year 6018, we are destined to remember the name of "The Dawns Here Are Quiet".

This Russian film made by Chinese people quickly swept the world and became the hottest topic this year.

With a box office of 400 million on the first day and 2.5 billion in the first week, the film became the biggest dark horse during the National Day holiday.

After a month of release, the cumulative box office of "The Dawns Here Are Quiet" has reached an astonishing 10 billion. Due to the high popularity, "The Dawns Here Are Quiet" was postponed again, and it was postponed until the end of December before it was finished in most cinemas.

On October 15, "The Dawns Here Are Quiet" was released in the European Federation, in November, "The Dawns Here Are Quiet" was released in the American Federation, and in December, "The Dawns Here Are Quiet" was released in the African Federation...

At the beginning of 6019, "The Dawns Here Are Quiet" had been released in dozens of countries and regions on six planets in the Earth Alliance, with a cumulative box office of 26 billion, ranking sixth in film history, 3 billion short of the first place.

With the extension of subsequent theater chains, the 3 billion is not a difficult goal to surpass.

Many film critics boldly predicted that "The Dawns Here Are Quiet" would set a new box office record.

While the box office is booming, "The Dawns Here Are Quiet" seems to have served as a fuse for conflicts in many countries and regions.

European Federation.

"Hello everyone, I'm Marilyn and welcome to Europe Today.

The anti-Zerg demonstrations triggered by the Chinese film "The Dawns Here Are Quiet" are still continuing. The demonstrators are demanding that the government introduce relevant laws to reduce trade with the Zerg, prevent the Zerg from infiltrating the cultural field, and call on citizens to unite and boycott all Zerg products.

At the same time, Zerg supporters also took to the streets to support the Zerg, and violent clashes broke out with anti-Zerg demonstrations. The following is Lucy Quentin's report from the UK.

"My name is Lucy, and I'm on the streets of St. Louis, Bruce. Today the streets are filled with the smell of tear gas, but the police's efforts are doomed to fail.

The battle between supporters and opponents was fierce, and they brandished all the weapons they could find: high-pressure water guns, fire hydrants, trash cans, tables, chairs and benches... This is a war! "

The camera cuts to the scene:

Many opponents shouted "Ura", and many people sang "Farewell to Slav Women" and raised their fists towards the enemy. The atmosphere on the scene became increasingly heated.

"The vast majority of supporters and opponents were organized through social media. This is not an organized national event, nor a political organization. This march was triggered by the movie "The Dawns Here Are Quiet", but its essence is the feud between domestic conservatives and radicals. There is an irreconcilable contradiction between the pro-insect faction and the anti-insect faction..."

American Federation:

"Hello everyone, I'm Lucy, welcome to "Dialogue with America". Today we have invited Mr. Austin, a political science professor at American University. Hello, Mr. Austin."

"Hello, host."

"Why are the anti-Zerg demonstrations around the world becoming more and more intense? What impact will this have on the world situation? What is the possibility of a war breaking out?"

"The anti-Zerg demonstrations that have broken out around the world are a thoroughly irrational and narrow-minded nationalist movement driven by extreme emotions..."

Alan turned off the computer and let out a loud "Puh" sound.

It is because there are so many "professors" and "public intellectuals" running rampant in their federation, saying all kinds of bullshit, that their federation has become a hard-hit area by the Zerg brainwashing!

After personally experiencing the atmosphere of public opinion in China, Allen came to realize one thing completely - absolute democracy and freedom will instead lead to the spread of populism, causing the official government to lose credibility in the public opinion field, thereby weakening the country's cultural soft power and becoming controlled by others.

One country, one government, only needs one voice!

Just like the Soviet Union.

When there was only one voice in the Soviet government, it was the most powerful country in the world and had the most united people in the world. They were invincible and could overcome all difficulties and obstacles.

But when many voices appeared in the government and when more and more people began to pursue so-called democracy and freedom, the great Soviet Union was brutally dismembered and became a victim of the politics of "democracy and freedom."

The reason why China is now the most powerful country on earth is that there is only one voice in China. They are vigilant enough against the invasion of Zerg culture and have strong enough action and cohesion.

And what about his country?

Politicians and public intellectuals are the mouthpieces of capital. In order to get political donations, they can describe the sun as square and something smelly as fragrant.

Who knows if there is capital from the Insect Planet behind them?

Ultimately, politicians and public intellectuals cannot be relied upon. To save this country, we must ultimately rely on the power of the people.

That's why Allen dropped out of school and returned home.

He never wanted the American Federation to become the next Soviet Union.

To do this, he and they must take action.

"Please join our Anti-Zerg Combat Association and oppose the Zerg cultural invasion with us!" At the university gate, young students waved leaflets and promoted vigorously at the campus gate.

"History is the history of mankind! The history of mankind cannot be tarnished by the Zerg!"

"The Zerg are conducting human experiments! Brainworms are the offspring of human-Zerg hybrids! The Zerg are determined to destroy us humans!"

"This is the most important moment! If our generation cannot eliminate the influence of Zerg culture, our next generation will become Zerg puppets!"

"Don't believe the lies of politicians. For the future of mankind and the continuation of civilization, we must resist the cultural invasion of the Zerg!"

The enthusiastic students attracted a lot of people's attention. Many people stopped to watch, and many people took the flyers to check them out.

The fire is burning more and more fiercely.

January 6019, China.

Le Jing has been placed under strict protection by the military.

During these three months, he experienced more than ten assassination attempts of varying degrees.

Sometimes the spacecraft suddenly loses control, sometimes it is the bites of a few inconspicuous little bugs, and sometimes it is even an accidental "human bomb". The various assassinations are hard to guard against.

He seemed to have become a thorn in the Zerg's side.

The number of security personnel around Le Jing gradually increased from three at the beginning to fifty.

Now, his travel is restricted and the film-related promotional activities have been suspended.

To be honest, Le Jing never expected that "The Dawns Here Are Quiet" would receive such a great response around the world.

Over the past three months, anti-Zerg demonstrations have erupted all over the world. Beneath the surface of peace, there are countless undercurrents. Many military commentators have even predicted an all-out war between humans and Zerg.

Fortunately, the Chinese government has strong control, so stability has been maintained in China and no large-scale demonstrations have broken out.

Even the Chinese government was caught off guard by the consequences of this movie.

After a detailed analysis, the government think tank came to the conclusion that: first, the world economy has been in a downturn in recent years, and the grassroots people are in urgent need of an outlet. Second, the people's dissatisfaction with the Zerg has been accumulating, and the world has suffered from the Zerg for a long time! The emergence of Le Jing's film acted as a fuse, completely igniting the anger of the people. In addition, many radical foreign political parties have been behind the scenes to add fuel to the fire, which led to a series of subsequent chain reactions.

The fundamental reason for the anti-insect demonstrations that broke out abroad this time is the contradiction between current policies and people's wishes.

Le Jing never expected that he would inadvertently become the person who created a historical event.

Countless coincidences piled together to form a historical event that affected the entire world.

Is this the so-called domino effect?

Throughout history, many historical events were caused by trivial matters.

Just like the fall of the Ming Dynasty, it was the result of one coincidence after another and one small thing after another.

For example, the Li Zicheng uprising was caused by Chongzhen's order to streamline the post station staff, which led to Li Zicheng's unemployment. In order to find a job again, Li Zicheng simply rebelled.

Another example is the Wuqiao Rebellion in the late Ming Dynasty. The artillery units that the Ming Dynasty had spent a lot of money to build all defected and surrendered to the Later Jin Dynasty, helping Huang Taiji create the myth of hundreds of thousands of Qing soldiers armed with cold weapons conquering the Ming Dynasty with spears and cannons.

The cause of the Wuqiao mutiny was a chicken. The army was short of supplies, so the soldiers secretly killed a chicken to satisfy their hunger.

This chicken was from a family of Wang Xiangchun, a senior official of the imperial court. Wang Xiangchun's son was arrogant and relentless, which angered the soldiers in the camp. "A chicken is more important than defeating Huang Taiji?" So the whole army rebelled and joined Huang Taiji.

Therefore, the fall of the Ming Dynasty was truly a matter of time and fate.

Will war really break out? Will his film be the trigger for a human-insect planet war?

The answer from the China Think Tank is: “No.”

"The time is not ripe for war now. Peaceful development is the main theme of all countries in the world. Even the warlike Zerg Star has to take into account the pressure from the Interstellar United Nations and will not rashly launch an attack."

Le Jing breathed a sigh of relief.

Although peace must be achieved through war, he is actually a thorough anti-war person.

War is a meat grinder that will annihilate all beautiful souls.

Therefore, he is opposed to solving problems through war unless there is no other solution.

January ended in turmoil.

Then it’s February, and the new year’s Ark Awards is here.

Due to the turmoil in recent days, many people were discussing whether the Ark Prize should be postponed, but in the end the organizing committee decided to hold the Ark Prize on time, hoping to use outstanding art to dilute the shadow of war.

Le Jing's "The Dawns Here Are Quiet" was undoubtedly invited.

However, the domestic security department was opposed to his participation in the Ark Award.

In recent days, assassinations against Le Jing have never stopped. In addition to the Zerg, there are also foreign forces behind the assassinations.

The involvement of multiple forces has caused the water to become very muddy, and it is impossible to tell whether it is a human or a ghost.

In such troubled times, Le Jing really shouldn't have gone to Europe to attend the Ark awards ceremony. This is creating opportunities for assassination!

To be honest, Le Jing doesn't care whether he can win the award or not.

In order to achieve his goal, he cherishes his life very much. So this time, he really intends to say goodbye to the Ark Award.

Yes, that was what he had intended.

The chief looked at him with a complicated expression: "The president of the European Federation invited you to visit Europe and wanted to exchange his thoughts on the movie with you."

Le Jing: ???

I'm just a director, why am I taking away the job of a diplomat?
