The night of December 5, 1940, Munich, the Grand Theater
The head of the secret police who came to see the excitement was also a little dumbfounded. He had just asked his subordinates. The diaries, photos, and films that Rabe brought back from the East are all still locked at the secret police headquarters. How could the copyright be purchased? By the way, shouldn't you ask for my opinion?
But, no.
After confirming that there was no problem with the authorization document, Li Yunlong actually told everyone that the movie "Rabe's Diary", which he personally adapted the script, would be broadcast live tonight. Now even Rabe himself was shocked by Li Yunlong's saucy operation. Brother , let’s not play like this, okay?
Colonel Rudolph still wanted to express his dissent, but for some reason the head of the secret police stopped his action. Now he really wanted to watch this movie. He had watched the previous "Eight Hundred" However, although it is shocking, the recognition is not great. After all, it is a movie that takes place in far away Asia, but "Rabe's Diary" does seem to be different. It seems that Rabe and the others should appear, but I don't know where. What image do they have in the eyes of Easterners?
A huge wide curtain slowly lowered, and the head of the secret police couldn't help but frown. These Orientals went too far. They actually arranged everything early in the morning. I'm afraid it was the Air Force Commander's handiwork again. Damn it, what exactly did he want to do? ? Could it be that he really wanted to destroy the alliance with the Japanese? You must know that you have actually read "Rabe's Diary". Compared with the Japanese, Hans can definitely be called a gentleman in what he did in Europe.
The lights gradually dimmed and the movie finally started. At the beginning, everyone was interested in the movie’s exquisite images and shocking sound effects. After all, this kind of huge colorful stereo high-definition movie almost subverted everyone’s existing understanding of movies. This is the first time people know that movies can be like this.
But as the story unfolded little by little, everyone began to be immersed in the story. They began to enter the role, and began to see everything from Rabe's perspective and the cognition of a normal Hansi citizen, but what they felt was... There are only two words, that is anger, the anger of renunciation. How could it be like this? How could his so-called Eastern allies destroy humanity like this? To commit such atrocities in such a city full of historical traces?
People began to tremble, cry, become angry, and become jealous. Regardless of gender, age, or status, even the "well-informed" head of the secret police could not help but have red eyes, although the secret police were also there. Doing dehumanizing and anti-human activities, but it was all done after the war. During the war, he can guarantee that no Hans army has done such a thing. It has not done so now and will not do so in the future. Yes, of course, with exceptions.
But this is not an isolated case. This is definitely an organized state behavior by the Japanese. Hundreds of thousands of troops carry out such behavior in the capital of another country. If it is not authorized by the top management, it is a ghost. As for the film The head of the secret police also firmly believed in the figure of 340,000 mentioned in the interspersed introduction. He believed that this number could only be higher. After all, in such a war, there was no way to deal with the residents who poured into the city. To achieve comprehensive statistics, the official number of people in the city when the city was destroyed can only be roughly known at best.
But whether there are 300,000 people or 500,000 people, one thing is certain, that is, the Japanese have gone crazy. They have broken through the bottom line of war and the bottom line of human life. Not only their army is crazy, but those who are crazy are also crazy. A politician is crazy, and even their citizens are crazy. Are they going to carve up the world with such a country? The leader of the secret police couldn't help but feel agitated. He really didn't want the great Hans army to face such a group of beasts one day.
The original version of "Rabe's Diary" lasted 134 minutes. When Wang Yue re-edited it, he removed a lot of advanced things and added a lot of documentaries, photos, and text narratives. The length of the entire movie was made by him. 150 minutes, a full two and a half hours, but from beginning to end, until the entire movie was played, no one left the show, not even one person went to the toilet.
After the movie ended, the lights in the hall gradually turned on, but after almost three minutes, people began to gradually withdraw from the emotion just now. Just when people wanted to express their suppressed emotions, at the end At the end of the aisle at the edge, a voice came - "Salute to Mr. Rabe!"
People turned around and saw that their most respected Air Marshal had arrived at some unknown time. It was he who had just shouted at the door. Seeing this, people applauded enthusiastically, and shouted loudly while applauding - "Hats off to Mr. Rabe!".
Some careful people discovered that an almost ferocious wound appeared on the air marshal's originally fair face. Only then did they remember that their marshal had almost fallen to the muzzle of an alliance agent just a few days ago. As a result, their applause became more intense, just like when the one appeared, everyone was fully involved.
The air marshal wore the gray cloak presented by Li Yunlong and held a marshal's cane. He strode onto the center stage with clean movements and did not look like a 300-pound fat man. In a daze, people remembered that their marshal was still a real man. hero.
The air marshal stepped onto the stage, and his staff invited Li Yunlong and Rabe to the stage. The marshal and Rabe warmly hugged him, and then pulled him to the center of the stage.
After stopping the applause, the Air Marshal announced the latest news to everyone. Just two hours ago, the man from the Prime Minister's Office signed an order to award John Rabe the First Class Combat Cross. And that man himself will The dagger he carried was given to John Rabe in recognition of his persistence as a Hans citizen and party member at a critical moment, and for doing something that would shine in the annals of history. The war was cruel and bloody, but no matter what, As a Hansi citizen and party member, we must have the courage to stand up and defend justice at critical moments.
At the same time, His Majesty the King, who was seriously ill, also sent a telegram to confer the title of Earl of John Rabe. His Majesty the King even called him a true Knight of Hans.
Under the gaze of thousands of pairs of eyes, the Air Marshal personally awarded John Rabe the medal, and at the same time handed the man's sword into the hands of John Rabe, but the ordinary dagger without any decorations really didn't look like it. That one is far worse than Zhongzheng Sword.
