If I say, cover your face and cry when you see the middle, is it a bit 13

This is a Chinese translation. I borrowed randomly from the community library. Still rely on English subtitles.
The movie lasts 2 hours and 55 minutes. There is still a break in between. Watching the first half of the episode, the heartache is unbearable. Burst into tears.
Baidu’s introduction said,
“The film uses an American gunboat sailing to China in 1925 as the storytelling stage. The protagonist Heman is a seaman on the boat and likes to hide in the engine room on the ground floor. Unexpectedly, after the gunboat is stationed in China, he is forced to jump there. On the deck, he was dealing with various political and cultural pressures, and the complicated development of the situation changed his individual character. "
But what I saw was the Chinese.
Suffering, hopelessness, hatefulness, slavery, ungratefulness, framing...
The image of the Chinese in the movie makes me sad, not because of distortion, but because of reality.

Ruan Cishan said that A Bian is the character of a Tainan gangster, and he called "Come on, come on me."
And when the American soldiers were surrounded by the Northern Expedition army that was three times their size, and the Northern Expedition Army "escorted" them back to the ship, the Chinese who saw them off each other shouted, "Foreign devils, why don't you shoot?" "Shoot," Why don't you shoot?" This is the background that recurs.

Seeing the American soldier, calling "Master", the humble face.
Seeing the gunboat drill, he clapped his hands in applause, and didn't know the target of his drill.
Pour each other and betray.
Mujian’s Huangpu student army died in the hands of someone who could have taught them how to use a flour mill.
So they began to retaliate. Kill the priests who stayed behind to teach them to learn.

Only see hatred, but not self-esteem.
I only saw pain, but I didn't see waking up.

Anyway, I don't want my motherland to go back to such a scene. Never again.
