When "Hero" was released, the author was still a casual Secondary Two boy, with an extremely limited understanding of the world, an unstable world outlook, and extremely fragile. At the right time, Chinese films rose to fame because of "Hero", which made us teenagers who grew up watching Hong Kong movies know for the first time that there are also martial arts movies in the Mainland. In the streets and alleys, no one does not talk about "Hero", and they all praise it, a real blockbuster. At that time, we didn't read the newspapers, and we didn't know the actual evaluation of the film by the elites. In addition, the Chinese teacher at that time spoke openly in the classroom, saying that "Hero" failed to get the Oscar is the biggest regret, the implication is that it is fully qualified to get the Oscar. In such an environment of wind criticism, what kind of impression does "Hero" leave in a teenager's heart. One day, the young man finally got the DVD of this movie, put it into the DVD player carefully, and saw the elegant and flying scenes, the shock in his heart was beyond words. He thought to himself, it turns out that this is a blockbuster movie. At the end of the movie, the word "Tian Xia" appeared on the sand, an impact of worldview. It turns out that Emperor Qin Shihuang is a good person, not a tyrant who burns books and confuses scholars as mentioned in the textbook. The heart of a teenager is easily persuaded by one statement, and it is also easy to be persuaded by another statement that seems to be completely opposite. At that time, the teenager followed the opinions of those around him and agreed that "Hero" is an unprecedented good movie. In the years that followed, the teenager repeatedly watched this movie that brought him both visual and perception shocks, and wanted to relive the initial shock again and again. However, it is a pity that as time changes, the boy is also changing, and his view of the world is also changing. In the end, his perception of the movie "Hero" is also changing, from the first admiration to the gradual doubt. , And now stand on the opposite side. At first he thought he understood the meaning of the title "Hero", but then he was very confused. He thought according to the narrative logic and told the story of a hero. Generally, there is a villain, regardless of whether the villain is a human or non-human disaster. , There must always be an object of resistance, otherwise how can a hero become a hero? But in contrast to the movie "Hero", there is no villain in the magic, everyone is a hero, whether it is the sky dedicated to tattoos, the nameless assassination of Qin, and the remnant sword that thinks about the world, even the war is launched. King Qin is a hero. The paradox of the film's value logic makes people sweat, and can easily be accepted by pure-minded people. For the peace of the world, sure enough, don't resist, let King Qin rule the world. Feixue, who is still plotting revenge, is ignorant. King Qin worked tirelessly to fight for the common people of the world. You have to seek revenge from others, which is too disregard of the overall situation. There are also those who resisted, who actually resisted, completely ignorant of King Qin’s painstaking efforts. People came to beat you for your good, and killed your family members for your good life in the future. Since Qin Shihuang unified the world and has become history, people unconsciously take it for granted. Coupled with artistic techniques and rhetorical beautification, many people really agree that "Hero" is a re-promotion of peace and expresses good values. , And even want to export these values internationally, without realizing how weird, dangerous, and unsightly these values are. The previous words are very clear, but I believe that many people will still disagree, and they will only think that the author is just playing tricks and singing the opposite. Then we use the logic of the value of the movie "Hero" to tell the same historical story. See if it is equally acceptable. One year, the Mongols came. The Mongols said that we are for the peace of the world, so don't do unnecessary resistance, and conquer me obediently. However, some unsophisticated people refused to accept and insisted on resisting, causing the world's creatures to be disgraced. As a result, the Mongols had no choice but to grasp the truth, because they were for the sake of the common people of the world, they were great heroes with the world in their hearts, and slaughtered the rebels. These rebels do not focus on the overall situation and are not heroes. In another year, Manchu came. The man said that we are coming to conquer you for the peace of the world. You must be obedient and don't resist. Helpless, there are still some people who don't take the overall situation as the most important thing, and they are distracted. Fortunately, the Manchus have mastered the truth. They have the world in their hearts. The grown-ups have successfully maintained the peace of the world and made a generation of heroes, regardless of the lives of the villains. Only then are the stories of those Arab figures elder brothers comforting the hearts of countless people. These things are of course historical, unchangeable facts, and even some take-for-granted impressions. Many people will still be indifferent and cannot shake the lofty status of "Hero" in their minds. Well, that's the only thing... Another year, the Japanese came. The Japanese are more sincere than the previous conquerors. They came with the blueprint of the East Asian co-prosperity circle, for the common people of the world, for the peace of the world, and for the common prosperity. Let them help you. You don’t care about anything, you just have to be obedient. Enough. According to the logic of "Heroes", shouldn't you surrender early for the sake of lifelessness and peace in the world? Wouldn't it be enough for you to surrender early. Then, shouldn't you become a great hero like Can Jian? And wouldn't the Emperor of Japan become another Qin Shihuang? Isn't it also a hero? But why do you resist! Not only did he resist, but he still hates Japanese militarism to this day. Who can now confidently say that Japanese militarists are heroes? What is the difference between Japanese militarism and King Qin’s Ironshoe King Division? King Qin believed that the world should be unified, so he destroyed the six countries; Japanese militarism believed that East Asia should be unified, so they launched a war. The only difference is that one succeeded and the other did not succeed. Is it possible to justify those cruel acts of war because of this? If the Japanese really enslave this country completely, just like the Mongolians and Manchus before, can you praise the Japanese militarist aggression as just? Qin Shihuang's unification of the world certainly established the foundation of today's China, but it did not change his cruel and evil nature, so the people quickly overthrew him. Do you still want to say that the people who resist are evil, and the King Qin or Qin II who practiced tyranny in the name of peace is a hero. This is a complete reversal of right and wrong. If you embellish this ugly history, and want to export it to the West, it is tantamount to letting them see a glorified fascist story. Hitler who started the war became a hero. If the fascists win, they are likely to make a similar story. Just one package with such sinister values, but also wants to be recognized by the Oscar, if it really succeeds, then it will be a real nightmare. Many people are fascinated by the artistic effects of movies. Although the pictures are beautiful and the movements are elegant, but just as fascists are also wrapped in Wagner, they agree that fascism is also just. Nowadays, the director of the national division has filmed the international blockbuster "The Great Wall", once again distorting history and reversing right and wrong. What does the Great Wall do, is it still an unsolved mystery? Regardless of the facts, forcibly setting, and wanting to export internationally, is it really stupid or pretending to be stupid? The director of the national division will never get an Oscar, because the Oscar is a narrow capitalist world's judgment, and the director of the national division is a director with Chinese characteristics. Such a director does not need the affirmation of Western reactionary forces at all. Therefore, for the sake of political correctness, the media industry will stop saying that the director of the National Teacher will be attacking the Oscar again. The director of the National Teacher has a sincere Chinese heart and disdains the awards of those backward countries.
June 2021
After so many years, because of my lack of expressive power in the past, some opinions were not expressed intuitively.
Now I will give a unified answer. I find that all those who oppose my opinion are based on their current position to recognize the achievements of Qin Shihuang.
This is not a problem. From a long-term benefit point of view, you can praise Qin Shihuang no matter how you want.
However, you can't travel through time and space to answer the victims who died under the iron hoof of Qin Shihuang at that time, to forgive the perpetrators on their behalf, and to accuse them of not having a big picture.
In order to achieve greater benefits, there will always be victims, but don't try to deny the suffering of the victims, which is very disgusting.
There are many people who are simple-minded, like to accept simple and clear views, and believe that there is absolutely correct truth in this world, and they can sweep everything by holding the truth in their hands.
But as long as you understand a little bit of history, you know that history has always been complicated and heavy, and there are far more lessons in history that should be emphasized than praise.
