From the moment Amu first saw Christian, he couldn't stand the sight of him.
A little foreign devil came to learn about the culture of western Hunan, but his courage was not even as big as his fingernail.
If Amu didn't use those little tricks to scare him half to death, he would be doing a disservice to all his skills.
Amu's words were like a thorn, piercing deeply into Christian's heart. His face stiffened, he remained silent for a few seconds, and then sighed deeply.
“You’re right, Grandpa Amu.” Christian’s voice became low and heavy. “Our ancestors did bring great disaster to this land. I…I’m sorry for that.”
"History is in the past, and we cannot change it. But we can choose the future. I am not trying to defend Eagle Tower, but rather I hope to use my actions to atone for the sins of my country and my ancestors."
Qin Zian gazed intently at Christian, his eyes filled with a deep intensity, as if the other man's sincerity and determination pierced through those blue eyes and reached the depths of his heart.
A bitter feeling welled up in his heart, and he clearly understood that although history could not be changed, people could learn from it and strive to avoid repeating the same mistakes.
Christian's words stirred up ripples in Qin Zi'an's heart and also inspired his new ideas for promoting Miao culture and tourism.
Qin Zi'an began to think about how to show the world the true face of the Xiangxi corpse-driving tradition, instead of avoiding the topic.
For a long time, the practice of transporting corpses in western Hunan has been misunderstood as a symbol of terror and evil.
But in reality, it contains profound cultural connotations and humanistic care.
Soon, Qin Zian gradually formed a clear plan in his mind.
He plans to create a stage play on the theme of Xiangxi corpse driving, and through vivid performances and deeply moving stories, show the audience the true face of Xiangxi corpse driving.
At the same time, Qin Zian also hopes to conduct joint publicity with the Eagle Tower Kingdom to deepen the friendship between the two countries and promote cultural exchanges.
However, all of this is just fluff.
Most importantly, Qin Zian wanted to use Eagle Tower Kingdom as a springboard to promote Miao culture to the world.
Only by letting more and more people understand Miao culture and the Xiangxi corpse-driving technique can the reflections brought about by war not end here.
When Qin Zian proposed this idea, Amu was the most excited person, and was immediately moved to tears.
Amu looked at Qin Zian with deep affection, his eyes sparkling with recognition and pride.
"Director Qin, you have always been the pride of our Dragon Kingdom, promoting many cultural and tourism projects. This idea of promoting the Xiangxi corpse-driving technique is truly excellent."
Holding Qin Zi'an's hand, Amu said with great excitement, "Our Xiangxi corpse-driving technique has always been misunderstood by outsiders as a symbol of horror and evil, which is truly heartbreaking. If we can let more people understand its true meaning through stage plays, it will be a great blessing for our Xiangxi culture."
Like Amu, Christian was also extremely excited.
In any case, he finally had something to do and was no longer isolated.
When something so meaningful is accomplished, it will be an absolutely unparalleled and wonderful thing.
Then, Christian grasped Qin Zi'an's hand and loudly expressed his support.
"Brother Qin, I strongly agree with your idea of promoting cultural tourism. Only by facing history squarely can we go further. As a citizen of Eagle Tower, I am well aware of the harm our ancestors once caused to this land."
"I hope to do something for the victims in my own way. Participating in this stage play can not only atone for the sins of my ancestors, but also let more people know the true face of the Xiangxi corpse-driving and deepen the friendship between our two countries."
"Thank you for giving us this opportunity to atone. I will do my utmost to ensure that the people of Eagle Tower know about this history and face it squarely. We will not only put on a stage play, but also have a joint screening at the Eagle Tower Grand Theater."
Christian spoke passionately, eager to atone for his sins as soon as possible.
Looking at Christian's enthusiastic demeanor, someone who didn't know better might think he had Chinese blood flowing through his veins.
Amu looked Christian up and down suspiciously, then frowned and said, "Anyone can talk big, right? If you can't do something, don't brag."
“I have the ability,” Christian said firmly.
"What strength do you have?" Amu said dismissively.
“My father was the mayor of England, my mother was the director of the Eagle Tower Theatre, and I am their only son.”
When Christian revealed his family's wealth, Amu couldn't help but raise his eyebrows, shocked by what he had said.
How could this little foreign devil have such great strength?
Amu truly couldn't believe that Christian, born into such a family, hadn't turned out badly.
A good thing came out of a pile of oddballs?
That's really strange.
"Director Qin, is what he said true?" Amu asked.
"Probably! After all, Christian secured the right to use the most bustling street for the Dragon Kingdom's Spring Festival activities in Eagle Tower Kingdom with just one phone call."
"Grandpa Amu, just trust me! I will definitely make the people of Eagle Tower understand the Xiangxi corpse-driving culture of Miao territory, and make them think about war in a new way," Christian assured, patting his chest.
Amu didn't understand Christian's words, but he was deeply shocked.
