Violence supervision in Conan

Chapter 630 The true history is bloody.

"Your Highness, the stubborn defenders in Jinling City have been completely defeated by our troops. The remaining defeated soldiers have escaped into the city, and we are now searching for them!"

After the messenger finished speaking, Prince Asaka Yasuhiko immediately burst into laughter:
"Excellent! The Chinese capital is finally in our hands! We will surely destroy China within three months!"

"Your Highness, what should be done with those Nationalist prisoners of war? Should we establish concentration camps?" a Japanese colonel asked.

During the defense of Nanjing, they captured a total of 100,000 Nationalist soldiers. He was in charge of managing these prisoners. Keeping them would be a waste of food and require guards, but killing them...

Prince Asaka Yasuhiko's gaze suddenly turned cold, and he said in a sinister tone, "We don't have the energy to manage so many prisoners. Just kill them all!"

The words were so casual, as if killing a few chickens and ducks was nothing to worry about.

Yet it was filled with the cruel stench of blood.

The Japanese generals below were all taken aback by Prince Asaka Yasuhiko's extremely cold words.

This is a blatant violation of the Geneva Convention!
Even the colonel who raised the question did not expect His Highness the Prince to be so decisive, actually daring to defy public opinion and kill 100,000 prisoners.

Even the Germans didn't dare to do this when they slaughtered the Jews.

But soon, most of the officers' eyes revealed an excited and ferocious glint. His Highness the Prince was right. Those lowly Chinese pigs were not worthy of being prisoners of their Imperial Army!
They're all dead!
Only a small number of officers showed hesitation and reluctance, including a slender and beautiful female major.

It is Michiko, the confidential secretary, played by Miwako Sato.

Unfortunately, seeing the menacing glint in their colleagues' eyes and the cold-blooded Asaka Yasuhiko, these officers, who still had some conscience, ultimately lacked the courage to voice their objections.

Looking at her "compatriots" around her, who seemed to be more demons than humans, a hint of confusion flashed in Michiko's eyes.

This also laid the groundwork for the later plot.

"Card!"

Takeshi Ono called "cut," but instead of immediately saying whether the scene was over, he fell silent.

He didn't speak, and no one else dared to speak either; for a moment, the entire film set became completely silent.

All eyes were focused on the silent Oni Takeshi.

Kogoro Mouri, who plays Prince Asaka Yasuhiko, is a little nervous. He is the absolute protagonist in this scene, so if anything goes wrong, it should be his fault.

At this moment, the fierce look on his face was gone, and he reverted to being that unreliable but kind-hearted uncle.

A moment.

Oni Takeshi turned his head and glanced at everyone.

What did you think of their acting?

Ran Mouri was the first to speak up: "I hate that kind of dad!"

After saying that, she gave Kogoro Mouri a disgusted look, or rather, she was targeting his military uniform, which represented evil.

"Xiaolan..."

Kogoro Mouri froze, turning grayish-white.

The others nodded in agreement; they had almost given in to beat up Kogoro Mouri themselves.

Having not been poisoned by communism, they, though fellow Japanese, could not condone or accept the brutality of Prince Asaka Yasuhiko and his Japanese troops.

They immediately realized that 100,000 people was just the beginning, and that Jinling City would soon become a true hell on earth!
The atrocities committed by the Japanese army are unimaginable, because they exceed the limits of normal human morality and imagination. Only by seeing them with one's own eyes can one truly understand how heinous these beasts were!
Instantly, everyone's gaze turned hostile, all shooting towards those "invading Japanese troops"!
Kogoro Mouri and others: ...

What's it to us?

clap clap clap!
Applause erupted.

"very good!"

Oni no Takeshi suddenly clapped his hands lightly and smiled as he spoke:
"Your gazes right now have already proven their acting skills. This act... is over!" Everyone was stunned.

A round of applause immediately followed.

Kogoro Mouri and the others breathed a sigh of relief; they had almost thought they were about to be ganged up on.

She couldn't help but look at Oni no Takeshi with a hint of resentment. "Could you please not do this next time? My heart can't take it..."

Especially for Kogoro Mouri, Ran Mouri's gaze just now almost shattered his heart.

Guiye Wu guiltily looked away, pretending not to see their gazes, then turned his head, his expression turning stern again:
"Hurry up and move on to the next scene, what are you all standing there for!"

Everyone:...

Weren't you the first one standing there dumbfounded?

But since Takeshi Onino is the director, whatever he says goes.

So the film set became busy again.

……

Takeshi Ono felt that war scenes were indeed difficult to film, requiring a lot of consideration and attention to be paid to them, which was also very complex. In particular, with many people in the shots, the control of the shots and the picture was more difficult and demanding.

But fortunately, this didn't stump him.

Besides, there's also an assistant director here.

Filming such grand scenes is exactly what the national director excels at.

Oni no Takeshi was not arrogant because his fame far exceeded that of his opponent. He would humbly ask the national advisor for advice on things he did not understand or was unsure about.

The National Advisor never expected that when he came to apply for the job with a learning mindset, it was Oni Takeshi who repeatedly asked him for advice.

They showed no arrogance despite the difference in their social status.

The director was deeply moved by the other party's "enthusiasm for film".

No wonder he achieved so much at such a young age. With such a broad mind and a devotion to film, it would be strange if he didn't succeed!

The Imperial Advisor was once again captivated by Oni Takeshi's personal charm and offered many valuable suggestions without holding back.

As they spent time together, they gradually developed a mutual appreciation for each other.

With the collaborative efforts of top directors from both countries, the filming proceeded very smoothly.

All the actors gave commendable performances, with a special mention going to Kogoro Mouri, who perfectly captured the arrogance, cruelty, indifference, and conceit of Prince Asaka Yasuhiko.

It gave Ono Takeshi quite a surprise.

As expected of someone from the Maori family, he portrays this kind of Chinese character with ease.

The others also performed well.

For example, when Akai Shuichi's Matsui Iwane puts on a Japanese military uniform, he loses his usual cold and calm demeanor. When he orders the massacre of the city with a fierce glint in his eyes, he seems to have truly transformed into a cold-blooded butcher.

Then there's Ling Zuer. This woman has a pure yet alluring appearance. In modern terms, she's a "pure-desire type." She plays the role of a female student convincingly, and when she's being abused, she makes people's blood boil.

The rest—James's Rabe, Fusa's Vautrin, Binga and Calvados—while only passable, all met Ono Takeshi's requirements.

However, after filming the scene of the Japanese army entering the city, the initially pleasant and relaxed atmosphere of the crew gradually became serious and heavy.

Seeing the various atrocities committed by the Japanese army, even their pleasure in killing, although we know it was all staged, history is real.

Everyone had the illusion that their worldview was collapsing, realizing that all the history they had studied over the years was wrong!
The real history was so cruel that they dared not even look at it.
