Xu Feng didn't expect that Director Chen would be very angry at what was supposed to be a good party.

According to Xu Feng's own thinking, she felt that what Takeshi Iwata said made sense.

How did she know what Director Chen was thinking.

So, what exactly is Director Chen planning to do?

……

"About the film "Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin", it is very inappropriate for a Japanese to film it!"

"Then, Teacher Chen's idea is..."

"I already have a plan, and my next job is to prepare this movie."

"It's also "Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin"?"

"I haven't figured out the name yet, but the story is indeed this story."

Although it did not win the Academy Award for Best Foreign Language Film, the movie "Farewell My Concubine" still returned with great honor.

When Director Chen was interviewed, it can be said that he was outspoken.

On the one hand, it is questioned that Takeshi Iwata, a Japanese, shoots Chinese historical films.

On the other hand, he actually planned to make a movie "Jing Ke Assassinates the King of Qin"!

So, what about characters?

"I have already agreed to Director Chen for this movie."

"That's right! Gong Li will be the heroine of this film! She is also the first role I have confirmed so far!"

"This is simply amazing!"

Gong Li was the first to agree!

The reporters were overjoyed. Although they didn't go to the United States, the news was definitely explosive.

And Gong Li is very interesting, what she thinks in her heart is:

Takeshi Iwata, I followed your advice.

Yes, you told me to do more Chinese movies.

But right now, everyone is already an opponent.

Chapter 409 "Mobile Police 2", Assassin Jing Ke

"It's clear that you want to fight us!"

"I said Iwata, what's the situation with you kid? Why don't you talk?"

"Look, I said that woman Gong Li can't be offended, right? Hmph!"

After finishing his Oscar trip in the United States, Takeshi Iwata returned directly to Hengdian as planned, and the filming of "Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin" officially started.

However, Takeshi Iwata immediately received a lot of complaints from Jiang Wen.

Director Chen and Gong Li made a brand new "Jing Ke Assassins the King of Qin" before. Although this movie has not been filmed yet, and Jing Ke did not assassinate Qin, Jiang Wen felt stimulated.

So, what did Takeshi Iwata think about this matter?

"Well, this is an oversight on my part."

That's all, when he said this, his face was full of smiles.

Jiang Wen was helpless for a while, "What's the matter with you? I thought you would make some sophistry, so what should I say next?"

After hearing this, Takeshi Iwata laughed, "You can also say what you want."

"No, I'm not that kind of person. We can't be unreasonable, right? But, I really want to hear about this matter. What do you think?"

Jiang Wen's curious and wise eyes moved Takeshi Iwata.

"Actually, I didn't think too much about it, probably because it's been so smooth recently, and I'm a little bit drifting."

"Huh? That's it?"

Next, Takeshi Iwata told Jiang Wen everything he said to Director Chen...he didn't say anything to Gong Li.

As a result, after listening to this big face, he continued to pat his thighs.

"I'm not talking about you, Iwata, I think you just poked Director Chen's lung tube."

Jiang Wen's performance was actually completely within Iwata Takeshi's expectations. He smiled and said, "You might as well just say that I'm meddling in my own business."

"This..." Jiang Wen smiled a little embarrassedly.

Takeshi Iwata knew very well in his heart that he was indeed a little impulsive when he said that at the time, but he did not regret it, and there were some things in it.

Ever since, the famous Japanese supervisor mentioned a very weird but very interesting movie.

"Last year, there was a movie, I don't know if you have seen it?"

"What? I should have seen it all."

"It's a cartoon."

"I didn't see that."

"It's called Mobile Police 2."

"what?"

"You can take a look when you have time."

"..."

Jiang Wen really didn't know why Takeshi Iwata mentioned this movie, but Takeshi Iwata understood why.

This "Mobile Police 2" also has a subtitle, "Peace Defense War".

However, why does this movie have something to do with Takeshi Iwata's previous dialogue with Director Chen?

Why did he want Jiang Wen to watch this movie?

In fact, the reason is very simple, because from this movie, many problems can be seen.

"Mobile Police 2" is a very, very classic movie, produced by the famous Japanese animation film supervisor Mamoru Oshii.

The plot of this movie is actually not that complicated, and of course, it is not that simple.

It was just a terrorist attack, but this terrorist attack led to many things.

Well, Oshii Mamoru likes this tone very much, that is the villain in his works, and there is definitely a story.

Even, villains are more like decent people, and what they do actually makes more sense.

This can be regarded as one of his routines, but what he shoots is always thought-provoking.

The person who planned this terrorist attack was a guy named Zhe Zhi, and he himself was actually a soldier.

Japanese peacekeepers.

However, what he did was really too big.

It turned out that an American fighter plane was launched, and it was an American fighter plane that fired missiles and attacked the Japanese bridge.

This is tantamount to war.

However, the operation of the Japanese side is very speechless.

They first destroyed almost all the videotapes, and then claimed what and what.

At the very right time, the United States plans to reap some harvests, that is to say, once again turn Japan into the direct jurisdiction of the United States, that is, a colony.

In the subsequent development, of course, the United States failed to succeed, and Zhe Zhi and his group also... The key lies in their purpose.

Why did they come up with such a lot of stuff?

To be honest, from Takeshi Iwata's point of view, this movie can be said to have a great influence on the later "Stone Breaking", which is "Bravely Entering the Island of Death".

This is really the case, this Zhe Zhi is really very similar to that general, and Zhe Zhi is also for the previous peacekeeping operation, and he only wants to take revenge on the Japanese government.

They even kidnapped people, and the methods of kidnapping were very similar.

Zhezhi kidnapped everyone in Tokyo with the airship, that yellow thing.

The few shots that appear in the animation are very impressive.

Tokyo is still the same Tokyo, but there are many soldiers here, they drive armored vehicles, even tanks, and all kinds of planes fly in the sky.

This scene, as if war and peace are perfectly intertwined.

The people in Tokyo didn't have any special feelings for these soldiers. They even felt very curious. They took photos with these soldiers, and elementary school students greeted the soldiers in the tank.

They don't know that they are likely to die, and they still live their lives as usual.

Fortunately, when the first airship was shot down, although there was a lot of yellow smoke, the gas was not poisonous.

Seeing this, you can probably say that "Into the Deadly Island" really copied this "Mobile Police 2".

However, this "Mobile Police 2" has something deeper.

In the end this movie, that is, what does Oshii Mamoru want to talk about?

Anti-American.

Yes, that's what he wanted to talk about.

The United States is really the root of all evil. Although the United States does not really appear in this movie, various things appear.

Although that fighter plane was controlled by Zhe Zhi, he actually wanted to take advantage of the United States.

In fact, anti-Americanism is a consensus shared by many sober Japanese today.

The simplest and most direct fact is that Japan's current economic bubble burst. Who caused it?

It's America.

The Japanese were definitely the first to recognize the Plaza Accord.

Of course, there is a saying that Japan also hoped to sign this agreement back then, but the results are now very clear.

Japan is doomed.

The reason is what the United States did.

How could such a culprit be let go? !

However, there is actually another demon in this movie.

Japanese government!

In fact, this 1993 movie is related to an incident in 1992.

This year, the Japanese government did one thing, that is, they passed the "United Nations Peacekeeping Cooperation Law."

In short, they can pass this bill and send troops overseas.

However, after the dispatch of troops, something really happened.

In Cambodia, Japanese peacekeepers died, and the Japanese government rewarded them.

Actually why did you die?

Because Japan's peacekeeping force is actually a cover, to present a sign that this country can actively participate in international affairs.

Whether you can fight, how well you fight, and what kind of opponent you face, the Japanese government doesn't care at all.

Even, it's better to be a group of peacekeepers who can't fight back when beaten or scolded, just like a little sheep.

That's great.

Look, we Japanese soldiers are not what we used to be, we are not a threat.

It's for that purpose, nothing more.

It should be said that in these two aspects, the significance of Japan's peacekeeping is still very direct, while anti-Americanism is somewhat deeper.

However, Takeshi Iwata believes that Jiang Wen must be understandable.

And let's end this matter here. Takeshi Iwata doesn't really care about Director Chen and Gong Li.

Filming is what really matters.
