Violence supervision in Conan

Chapter 615 China: Such a good thing?! Everything is ready, just waiting for the right opportunity!

At this moment, Mr. Zhang was overwhelmed with emotion and could not control himself.

Originally, she simply regarded Ono Takeshi as an upright person who dared to face history, but she never expected that he was far more righteous than she thought!
All I wanted to do was write a book about the Nanjing Massacre, but they were already planning to make a movie about it!

Given the difference in reputation and influence between the two, it is clear that Takeshi Ono, the director who just won the Oscar for Best Director, has a more sensational film.

However, this would mean that the pressure the other party would face would far exceed that of themselves.

Mr. Zhang had no idea how successful his book would be, but even so, it could not compare to the influence of Ono Takeshi.

She didn't believe that someone like Oni Takeshi would be unaware of the consequences of doing this, yet he still resolutely did it anyway.

Mr. Zhang felt ashamed of himself.

Her opinion of Oni Takeshi changed drastically, and she was filled with indescribable admiration.

This is a truly noble man who has transcended vulgar tastes!

Especially considering that the other party is the head of a conglomerate and holds a high position, doing so is all the more commendable.

Indeed, compared to those despicable Japanese who attempt to rewrite history and deceive themselves, selfless people like Takeshi Ono are more worthy of respect!

No wonder he was able to build such an outstanding career from scratch!
Having read her eyes, Oni Takeshi subconsciously touched his nose.

Being looked at with such admiration by someone like Mr. Zhang made him feel a little embarrassed and awkward, as if he didn't deserve it.

All that I've done boils down to four words—a clear conscience!
Now that he had encountered Mr. Zhang, he naturally had to lend a helping hand, so that his journey through time would not have been in vain.

Moreover, Ono Takeshi is not impulsive or reckless; he has the confidence to back up his actions.

He was capable enough to handle the consequences, unlike Mr. Zhang, a weak woman, who could only struggle forward amidst countless acts of malice, enduring immense pressure and danger!
In comparison, regardless of his past or present life, Mr. Zhang has always shouldered heavy responsibilities with his frail shoulders. Such a selfless person is truly worthy of respect.

Mr. Zhang's eyes shone brightly, as if he had found a like-minded partner, instantly closing the distance between him and Ono Takeshi, and there was no longer any distance or wariness in his words.

The two hit it off immediately, and Mr. Zhang accepted Oni Takeshi's invitation without any hesitation.

She would not refuse anything that would help publicize the Nanjing Massacre.

As for the copyright issue, she also said she would leave it to her.

The two sides then continued their discussion.

It was mostly Ono Takeshi who was talking, and Mr. Zhang was listening.

Takeshi Ono is the real expert when it comes to making movies, so she didn't offer much comment, only providing some supplementary information on historical facts.

The two chatted until the afternoon before saying goodbye and going about their own business.

……

After parting ways with Ono Takeshi, Mr. Zhang immediately made an overseas call to contact Reinhardt, a descendant of Rabe, who was in Germany.

Through her efforts, she successfully persuaded the other party and obtained the film adaptation rights from Reinhardt.

Mr. Zhang immediately shared the good news with Takeshi Ono.

Upon hearing the news, the latter immediately showed a look of joy.

In this way, the film can be launched legitimately!
However, there is still one thing that needs to be done.

Besides copyright, permission from the Chinese government is also required to make this film.

A film with political overtones like this can't just be made on a whim; it requires coordination with the Chinese side.

Furthermore, from a filming perspective, Takeshi Ono also hoped to obtain the full cooperation of China. Besides, since he was filming the Nanjing Massacre, it was impossible to bypass China.

The previous life of "The Diary of John Rabe" was the only film about Nanjing that was officially authorized by China and directed by a foreign director.

In this era, Oni Takeshi has a higher reputation and greater influence, so obtaining authorization should not be a big problem.

From China's perspective, it would not only not object to a renowned director like Takeshi Ono, who enjoys immense prestige and popularity worldwide, making a film about the Nanjing Massacre, but would actually welcome it.

As expected, the outcome was as predicted.

Subsequently, Takeshi Ono directly contacted the official channels to make a request.

When the Chinese side learned that a world-class director was going to make a movie about the Nanjing Massacre, they were both surprised and delighted.

Is there such a good thing?

With the development of the national economy and the improvement of national strength, the dissemination of culture and history has also become a top priority.

They are worried that the Nanjing Massacre is only influential domestically and has very little international recognition. Japan has even shamelessly rewritten history in an attempt to deceive the world, which is utterly shameless!
If the Nanjing Massacre were as globally known as the Holocaust, would Japan still dare to stubbornly distort the facts?
This is not only a commemoration of that national tragedy, but also a contest in international affairs.

China would naturally not refuse.

In fact, they had long planned to make related films, and directors such as Xie Jing and Zhang Yimou had expressed their intentions in this regard.

Unfortunately, despite their genuine talent and ability, their international influence is limited.

For various reasons, the matter has been shelved ever since.

But now the opportunity has come knocking on our door!
The fact that Takeshi Ono, a newly crowned Oscar-winning director, is willing to make such a film has an impact that is incomparable to that of Xie Jing and others.

Not just in Asia, but even worldwide, Takeshi Ono is renowned and has a large following. He can almost command a huge following and has immense influence.

The Chinese are no strangers to Takeshi Oni, whose previous films, when released in China, all caused a huge sensation and a viewing frenzy.

It has garnered countless positive reviews from both industry professionals and the general public.

This also allowed Takeshi Ono to amass a large following in China.

In terms of both wide influence and the quality of his works, Takeshi Ono is a standout and can be considered the number one in the Asian entertainment industry!
To put it bluntly but realistically, Xie Jing and Zhang Yimou are like little brothers compared to Gui Yewu.

With someone like Takeshi Onino personally directing, China couldn't be happier.

What's even more amazing is that the other party is Japanese!
He is also a well-known figure in Japan.

In this way, the matter falls under the category of "internal conflict" in Japan, which gives it more room to maneuver.

The relevant personnel immediately realized the importance of the matter and relayed the message as quickly as possible, which was soon approved.

The comment above only contained four words—

Full cooperation!

Upon receiving the feedback, Ono Takeshi was overjoyed.

All is ready except for the opportunity.

With the adaptation rights and authorization from China, "The Diary of John Rabe" can officially enter the launch phase!
On one hand, Ono Takeshi assigned the preparatory work to others, and on the other hand, he kept his promise and prioritized helping Mr. Zhang contact a publishing house to strive for the early publication of that significant book.

And soon, things started to turn around...
