This movie series is based on the East Invincible as the protagonist, which is also an inevitable phenomenon.

The name of Dongfang Invincible means sunrise in the east, which means one of the highest models of Chinese core culture.

Hong Xingzu of the Song Dynasty once said that the sunrise in the east is like a shock from the emperor, which means that the sun is the king, rising from the east and ruling China.

And Kui Qing is also one of the connotations of Chinese culture, which represents the loyalty of the subjects to the emperor and the single-minded pursuit of knowledge and truth.

In addition, the Chinese alias Aurora, the east is the earthquake, and the sunrise is the dan, which also means the sunrise in the east.

The fundamental implication of this invincibility of the East is not to satirize the East is red, but a metaphor for China itself.

It's just that Jin Yong speculates too much and doesn't understand China.

By the way, Wencheng Wude, unifying the rivers and lakes is actually the unified thought of the Qin emperor. Jin Yong's novels directly borrowed the meaning of Qin Shihuang.
