Chapter 612 History Must Not Be Desecrated: Oni Takeshi Takeshi Takes Action, Making an Eastern Version of "Schindler's List"

Oni Takeshi's guess was correct.

In December 1997, "The Nanjing Massacre: The Forgotten Holocaust" was officially published in America and immediately caused a sensation throughout North America!
Within a month, the book went through seven printings and quickly climbed the New York Times bestseller list.

Countless Westerners who were “unaware of the truth” learned through this book that decades ago, a similarly horrific tragedy had occurred in that distant Eastern land!

It’s simply shocking!

Many people's preconceived notions about Japanese people have been shattered as a result. They realized that the Japanese people's polite demeanor was a complete disguise, and that they were actually so vicious and perverted!
Immediately, public opinion surged, sparking heated discussions worldwide!

Neon's reputation plummeted.

This book is like a gust of wind, blowing away the fog of history!
Its popularity naturally caused great panic and anger among right-wing elements in Japan, who began to attack Mr. Zhang in groups and send her threatening letters.

Mr. Zhang was not afraid of the difficulties and predicaments.

He even connected with then-Japanese Ambassador to the United States Kunihiko Saito during a recording of a news program on PBS, demanding that Saito publicly apologize for the Nanjing Massacre.

Unfortunately, the enemy was more powerful, more shameless, and more unscrupulous than she had imagined.

They used every possible means possible!

Faced with relentless pressure, Mr. Zhang eventually became physically and mentally exhausted during the struggle, developed severe depression, and tragically passed away.

It leaves behind endless regret and sorrow.

But I digress. Let's get back to the present.

Although the book achieved great success after its publication, after completing the first draft, Mr. Zhang showed it to his mother and her editor, Susan Rabina, but did not receive their approval. Instead, he was met with a cold reception.

This caused Mr. Zhang to lose confidence for a time.

After much adjustment, I regained my confidence and worked with Susan to refine the first draft.

The differences in the world inspired Mr. Zhang to create the work ahead of time, and thus the first draft was born ahead of schedule.

Despite this, her experience remained unchanged.

After showing the first draft to my mother and editor, I still failed to gain their approval.

This was a huge blow to Mr. Zhang, who had been very excited.

She was going through a period of low spirits at this time.

That's why I almost got hit by a car while I was in a daze.

Of course, the culprit was that speeding yellow Ferrari, but unfortunately, that bastard got away too quickly.

Mr. Zhang is a typical idealist with a simple mind. Taking advantage of the opportunity, Ono Takeshi quickly learned about Mr. Zhang's current situation through his subtle probing.

Suddenly, a thought stirred in Oni no Takeshi's mind.

However, he didn't reveal anything, but continued to chat with Mr. Zhang as if nothing was wrong, taking the opportunity to learn a lot about her situation.

During the conversation, the two naturally talked about the Nanjing Massacre, and Mr. Zhang's emotions immediately became agitated.

She felt deeply for the plight of her compatriots and naturally felt intense hatred for the culprits.

No normal person could calmly accept those scenarios that cross the line.

Ono Takeshi did not shy away from criticizing the matter from a fair perspective, and his words were filled with righteous indignation, expressing his deep hatred for the atrocities committed by the Japanese invaders.

This wasn't an act; it was a genuine expression of emotion.

Seeing that he, as a "Japanese person," was so righteous and without any airs, Mr. Zhang was gratified and immediately developed a great liking for Ono Takeshi.

The two got along very well, and their relationship gradually became more familiar.

After only a short chat, Mr. Zhang became visibly tired and listless. Her soul was still reeling from the cruel history and bloody truths; although her condition wasn't as severe as it had later become, she was experiencing some physical problems.

Upon seeing this, Oni Takeshi fell silent.

Mr. Zhang couldn't resist the drowsiness and closed his eyes slightly.

The car became quiet.

Ono Takeshi did not disturb this respectable woman.

Speeding all the way.

Not long after, the car arrived at Mr. Zhang's home.

Oni Takeshi waited a while longer before waking her up.

Mr. Zhang, forcing himself to remain calm, expressed his gratitude and then, after exchanging contact information, took his leave.

Gazing at the other person's somewhat frail back, a strange light suddenly flashed in Oni Takeshi's eyes.

As a "two-faced Chinese," I naturally deeply abhorred the Japanese invaders and that massacre.

Tonight's chance encounter with this legendary figure from a past life stirred his heart instinctively.

A sense of responsibility unconsciously arose within me.

An idea suddenly came to mind.

Perhaps... I can do something about it!
After traversing a journey, one should always do something meaningful.

Exposing that massacre to the world, preventing the true history from being covered up, and thoroughly exposing the lies of certain villains—I feel it is my duty to do so!
Even though he was born on the other side of the world in this life, his red heart has never wavered!
What's that saying again...? It's not the fault of a gentleman if he is born in a small country!
Ono Takeshi is not a gentleman, but there are some things he can do if he has a clear conscience!
If Ms. Zhang, a woman, can act so resolutely, what is there for me to hesitate about?

In his previous life, Mr. Zhang fought almost alone, but this time he might be able to lend her a helping hand!
Suddenly, Oni Takeshi's gaze turned stern, and he made up his mind.

Mr. Zhang is fighting in his own way, so he can help her in his own way too!
Oni Takeshi started the car. A cool night breeze ruffled his hair, but it couldn't extinguish the fire in his heart!

He's going to make a movie!
A film that exposes the Nanjing Massacre!
Mr. Zhang's book is not enough; compared to words, the direct visuals of a movie are obviously more impactful!

Moreover, his current reputation is far beyond what Mr. Zhang can match, and it has reached its peak after winning the Oscar.

If I were to make a related film myself, the impact would certainly be greater than that of Mr. Zhang.

It could cause an even greater sensation than in the previous life, drawing more attention to the Nanjing Massacre!

Just like those Jews have been doing!

The West has "Schindler's List," so why can't they make an Eastern version themselves?

Movies are the best promotional tool!

Once this thought arose, it took root wildly in his heart like a thriving tree, and he couldn't shake it off!

The night was deep, but Oni Takeshi's eyes shone like stars!
Just do it!

His gaze was resolute.

As for what kind of movie to make, Takeshi Ono quickly came up with an idea.

In my previous life, there were quite a few films about the Nanjing Massacre, both domestic and international. However, there was one particularly special and renowned film that was very relevant to the current situation.

The name of this movie
It's called,

The Diary of John Rabe
