The world has changed dramatically since then. The world is always changing.
The war continued, sweeping across more than a dozen planets, with tens of millions of humans and Zerg fighting each other on the battlefield.
Will the world get better? Or worse?
At this time, the hundreds of billions of lives being swept up by the tide of the times did not have the time to think about these things. They were just trying their best to stay alive.
From the perspective of the macro-history of civilization, there was no side that was absolutely just or absolutely evil in the Second Star War. Even the Zerg, who were the first to provoke the war, only aimed to gain more living resources and space.
All intelligent creatures have the instinct to reproduce and expand in their genes, including humans and Zerg.
The expansion of civilization is inherently filled with blood, conspiracy, and war. The history of interstellar civilization is also a history of war.
Only when everything is settled will the surviving humans summarize and reflect, and only then will they give various definitions and natures to this war.
At this time, humans did not have the time to think so much.
Now they have no choice but to win.
If they lose, human civilization will be destroyed, and all future generations will become prisoners of war, vassals of the Zerg, and...livestock.
Le Jing has been closely following all developments on the front line.
The journey of mankind has not been smooth.
When humans were unaware, the Zerg had infiltrated humans for who knows how many years. The Zerg left traces in the political, economic and cultural fields.
There are countless puppets controlled like the President of the European Federation who have yet to be discovered.
These controlled puppets are like time bombs lurking among humans. No one knows when they will be detonated, dealing a fatal blow to humans.
It is precisely because of the existence of these puppets that human military intelligence has been seriously leaked, military plans are completely controlled by the enemy, and on the front battlefield, the human robot army is retreating step by step.
The defeat in the war caused domestic public opinion to be depressed, and even arguments for surrendering to the Zerg began to circulate on the Internet.
Some "smart people" believe that this war was caused entirely by the willful actions of the United Nations government. They believe that the assassination of the president was a conspiracy by the government, a frame-up of the Zerg, and that it was just an excuse to start a war. Similarly, they advocate that the government should stop the loss in time and surrender to the Zerg.
They said:
"The Zerg Queen has said that as long as we choose to surrender, we can return to peace. She also promised that she would not let us sign any treaty. She only requires us to compensate for part of the military expenses!"
"We pay so much tax to the country every year, not for war! Are you trying to make all of us humans become victims of your ambitions by being so aggressive?"
"Why do we have to fight? Can't humans and Zerg just sit down at the negotiation table and have a good discussion? This war will cause the national economy to regress by at least five years!"
"Because of this war, my company went bankrupt and I lost my job! I can't survive anymore! Do you really want me to be hanged in front of the UN government?!"
Some of them are not necessarily controlled by the Zerg. They just have the weakness and naivety of the petty bourgeoisie and are sophisticated egoists.
In peacetime, these people live a refined and elegant life, leading a petty bourgeoisie life that everyone envies. But when war breaks out and threatens their interests, these people are likely to become fence-sitters and guides.
Le Jing scoffed at these people's naive ideas. The Zerg Queen's words couldn't fool even a child.
Throughout human history, fellow human beings have treated prisoners of the defeated countries in a ruthless, cruel and bloody manner. These people actually naively believed that the Zerg, as an alien race, would treat them well.
It is a crime to possess a treasure, this is a truth that the ancients thousands of years ago understood. And if the person who possesses the treasure is unarmed and weak, then the wolves will eat him up in no time.
Now that the war has begun, humanity must win.
Surrender means being weak and vulnerable. Then by then, it won't be just the Zerg that invade the Earth Alliance. The entire interstellar space may be swept up in a frenzy of dividing up the Earth Alliance.
Just like China during the Qing Dynasty.
More than a hundred years of humiliating modern history has verified a truth: "If you lag behind, you will be beaten."
Bismarck, the Iron Chancellor of Germany, said: "Truth is within the range of cannon."
A great Chinese man once said: "Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun."
As long as your fist is big, you are the truth.
Le Jing intends to tell the world this truth through a series of movies.
He was unable to help on the front line, so he could only try to boost morale and inspire people through film and television works, and suppress the discordant voices of public opinion from the rear.
The soldiers are fighting bravely on the front lines and should not be discouraged by these sarcasm and rumors.
Le Jing's next plan is to make a war film series.
In this series of movies, there is the king who gave a passionate speech on the ruined streets of London, there are the Zhazidong martyrs who were bloodily massacred by the reactionaries, there are the black slaves who fought desperately for freedom against colonial rule, there are the Indian warriors who struggled to survive the bloody massacres and ethnic cleansing atrocities in the United States...
They come from different countries and different classes, have different skin colors, speak different languages, have different cultural backgrounds and different beliefs. They may succeed or fail, be imprisoned or die, die heroically or remain unknown, but they are all human beings.
In the squeeze of the times and the impact of the waves, the dazzling brilliance they burst out at the moment of life and death once briefly illuminated the eternal night and nourished the desert of human hearts.
This is the glory and backbone of mankind.
This is what Le Jing wants the audience to see.
Future generations should know that in human history, there have been many fools who tried to fight against the tide of the times. These fools ignored the trend of the times, went against the current, and did things they knew were impossible, and ultimately it was difficult for them to have a good ending.
However, it is precisely because of these stubborn and single-minded fools that human civilization has been able to continue to this day. It is also because of these stubborn and single-minded fools that every time a disaster strikes, there will always be wise men who will show up to guide the direction of an era and help mankind to stumble forward.
This war is completely different from all the wars in the ancient Earth period. Their opponents are no longer humans, but completely alien races.
Although Le Jing’s films are about human internal struggles, the core remains unchanged - freedom.
"All creatures compete for freedom in the frosty sky."
Human beings are a race that pursues freedom.
In order to fight for freedom, the people sent the king and queen to the guillotine, the black slaves fought for hundreds of years, the Indians were slaughtered, China ended the imperial system, and revolutions and uprisings occurred one after another all over the world...
This was true in ancient Earth, and it is still true today.
Le Jing hopes to use these films to inspire people's yearning and pursuit for freedom. He also hopes that his films can encourage more true human rights fighters to stand up and fight to the end for freedom, destiny, humanity and civilization.
And peace can only be achieved with fists.
Now is the time to truly build a community with a shared future for mankind. All human beings must put aside their narrow selfishness and unite to fight the enemy together. Anyone who lags behind here will be a sinner for all mankind.
Le Jing's new film plan was quickly approved by the government, and the leader even made a special trip to meet with him.
"In such a time of crisis, such movies are undoubtedly very inspiring." The leader's eyes were complicated, and he smiled with satisfaction: "By reading the history of our ancestors, people can understand how difficult and bumpy our journey in pursuit of freedom is, and how hard we have worked to get to where we are today. If we retreat here, it would be a betrayal of our predecessors and irresponsible to future generations."
"So, we must not stop here!" The leader laughed heartily, his smile was bright, and his eyes were as lively as a teenager: "Our journey is to the stars and the sea!"
Le Jing smiled brightly and nodded heavily, "Yes, as long as humans are alive, they will never stop striving for freedom."
"I'm looking forward to your new movie." The chief looked at Le Jing with admiration, "I don't know what's wrong with your brain, it seems like you never run out of inspiration, and you always have all kinds of fantastic stories."
He puzzled: "Like this film series, you use the ancient earth history as the background framework to conceive so many different types of stories. How did you come up with the idea?"
The young man smiled and said, "In a dream." His amber eyes were a little dazed. "I saw all this in my dream, and then I recorded it truthfully."
The chief was amused. "You artists," he nodded at Le Jing, looking helpless, "are all so superstitious. Okay, I won't say any more to you. Go and get busy. Try to get your first movie out before next Spring Festival."
It is now September, and there are only four or five months left until next Spring Festival. There is no doubt that the schedule is very tight, and Le Jing will have to race against time next.
With the green channel of the state, Le Jing assembled a crew two weeks later. Many people in the crew were his old friends who had followed him since the beginning of "Records of Literary Masters of the Republic of China".
The first movie was the story of Zhazidong.
A story of death before the dawn of a new world.
On the eve of the founding of New China, this group of brave intellectuals with ideals were brutally murdered by the frustrated reactionaries. They were unable to see the red flags waving and the new world they had dreamed of.
Some of them betrayed their class for their ideals. Although they came from wealthy families, they sacrificed their lives for the future of the poor masses. Although they were unarmed weak scholars, they were so strong and brave that even many generals were ashamed.
They are Jiang Jie, Little Radish Head, Yang Hucheng, Luo Shiwen... They come from different professions: soldiers, journalists, teachers, students, farmers and guerrillas.
They will never know what the five-star red flag looks like until they die.
However, the enemy destroyed only their bodies, but their souls will be immortal!
Such iron-blooded and strong warriors are the best response to those weak petty bourgeoisie!
…
Mo Mingrui was packing his luggage when he learned about the progress of his new movie from Le Jing’s Xingbo.
His destination was the front line.
He would act as a war correspondent, using his camera and pen to record everything he saw.
This is his duty and his journalistic ideal.
He had thought he would be afraid, but when he really made the decision, there was only a sense of peace in his heart.
This is what it means to truly be alive.
He raised the camera, not for history but for the people.
Now, he just hopes he can come back alive to watch Le Jing's movie.
