Chapter 219 I asked you to change history, and you asked me to provide evidence?
Life is only a handful of dirt, and no matter what great achievements you have made, they will all be in vain when you die.
Liu Hongmin knows this very well, so he always puts his own safety first. He is not alone, he has a wife, a family, and will soon have children. These are his concerns and the meaning of his life.
With Jiang Wen joining the production, the preparations for Let the Bullets Fly went much faster. Jiang Wen's serious personality gave the Beijing Film Studio a headache. But with him, the Beijing Film Studio did save a lot of trouble.
Liu Hongmin accompanied Li Lizhen for a few days, and then the Japanese delegation came to Beijing. The issue of mutual review of textbooks was put on the agenda again, and Liu Hongmin returned to work.
At the beginning, there was nothing important, so Liu Hongmin just stayed back and didn't say anything.
After the schedule was finalized, the two parties began to formally review the textbooks. Because of sufficient funds, the office location of both parties was once again set at the Jinpeng Hotel, Liu Hongmin's home court.
The people in Renjiao Society took the Japanese textbooks and slammed the table in anger while reading them.
Liu Hongmin smiled and asked, "What's wrong?"
"They are completely ignoring history and even distorting it."
"Isn't this expected?" Liu Hongmin stared at everyone and asked lightly.
This was not the first time Liu Hongmin had told them this, but they still did not quite believe it. After all, if the Japanese were so shameless, how could they dare to propose cooperation such as mutual review of textbooks?
However, the facts are right before our eyes: the Japanese are so shameless.
If those traitors had not been caught, they might have fooled everyone into turning a blind eye to the disgusting behavior of the Japanese devils, using excuses such as the maintenance of good relations between the two countries and the friendship between the peoples.
But those traitors had been dealt with by Liu Hongmin, and now the people sent by Renjiao Society were all their own people, so they naturally could not tolerate such behavior of the Japanese devils.
"Let's go find them!"
"Yes, we must not allow them to ignore history like this."
The leader of Renjiao Society also looked unhappy, "Comrade Hongmin, what do you think?"
"Sit and watch!" Liu Hongmin was very calm.
When the leader heard this, he was immediately moved and asked in a low voice: "What do you think?"
"Don't be in a hurry, let the bullets fly for a while." Liu Hongmin said in a pretentious manner.
The leader understood, and then said to everyone, "You continue to review and write down everything."
When everyone heard this, they immediately sat down and began to review the Japanese textbooks. From beginning to end, they suppressed their nausea and read through them one by one, finding faults one by one.
Liu Hongmin asked the hotel manager to make tea, and he and the leader of Renjiao Society sat there drinking tea.
Not long after, Jeff Kozuka came to the door.
"Mr. Kozuka, is there anything I can help you with?" Liu Hongmin asked with a smile.
Xiaozuka Jiefu bowed respectfully and said, "Mr. Liu, Mr. Huo, I came here to express my dissatisfaction with you. In your history textbooks, we are described as executioners. This is a slander against our country."
Liu Hongmin and his leader looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
The leader gestured to Liu Hongmin and said, "Arguing is what you intellectuals are best at. I'll leave it to you."
"Then you go back and have a rest first." "Okay! My old waist really can't sit for a long time." The leader stood up, held his waist and walked out.
Liu Hongmin sent him away, and then said to Jeff Kozuka, "Mr. Kozuka, can you repeat what you just said?"
When Jeff Kozuka heard this, he felt guilty. In front of other people, he dared to repeat what he had just said. But in front of Liu Hongmin, he didn't dare to speak at all. It was really that Liu Hongmin left a deep impression on him. This swindler had cheated them of million US dollars. If he offended this plague god again, he didn't know if he would be cheated again.
So he tried his best to force a smile.
"Mr. Liu, we have reached a cooperation agreement now. The two countries have friendly relations, so should we revise many of the words in the textbooks?"
Liu Hongmin asked with a smile: "Are there any wrong records in our textbooks? Please point them out, Mr. Kozuka."
Chen Yu placed a stack of history textbooks on the table. Liu Hongmin stretched out his hand and motioned for Jeff Kozuka to turn the pages himself.
Jeff Kozuka quickly said, "Mr. Liu, that's not what I meant. Rather, our two countries are now on good terms, so please don't engage in hate education. After all, this will affect the future of both countries."
Liu Hongmin: "Mr. Kozuka, what you said is wrong. Good relations between two countries should be based on mutual assistance. Just like our cooperation in mutual review of textbooks this time, it is about mutual assistance. Education is the foundation of a country. The purpose of education should be to seek truth from facts, and the same should be true for history. Both sides have the obligation to help each other correct historical mistakes. So, Mr. Kozuka, please point out the mistakes in our textbooks and provide evidence, and we will correct them immediately."
Jeff Kozuka felt like he was going crazy. I came here to ask you to change history, but what evidence do you want me to provide?
"Mr. Xiaozhong?" Liu Hongmin waved his hand in front of his eyes twice, then asked, "Help us correct our mistakes quickly!"
"Mr. Liu!" Jeff Kozuka took a deep breath and calmed himself down.
"We came with sincerity for this cooperation, and we paid million US dollars for it. But you didn't give in at all. Isn't that too insincere?"
Liu Hongmin asked back: "Mr. Xiaozhong, are you mistaken? The 10 million is your publisher's compensation to me personally, and one of the 200 million is your compensation to our country, and the remaining 100 million is cooperation funds. Aren't we cooperating now? How come you are not sincere?"
Kozuka Jeff couldn't win the argument with Liu Hongmin, who was not only eloquent but also right. More importantly, he was not afraid of offending the so-called "foreign guests" or causing "diplomatic" incidents.
Not to mention the Japanese, even if the Americans came, they would just curl up or lie down when they come to him.
Jeff Ozuka left dejectedly, and as soon as the door closed, everyone in Renjiao Club started applauding.
"Comrade Hongmin, you are amazing!"
"Comrade Hongmin, you did a great job!"
"It's time to teach these little devils a lesson!"
Liu Hongmin smiled and pressed his hands, "Keep a low profile, keep a low profile. Everyone, as I just said, if we want to find problems with their textbooks, we must produce evidence. Otherwise, the Japanese will definitely accuse us first and say that we are making trouble without reason. Given the current international situation, even if we are right, it will be difficult to get support. Therefore, we must do this perfectly and let their conspiracy fail."
"No problem! Comrade Hongmin, don't worry!"
"We promise to get the job done!"
After Jeff Kozuka returned to their meeting room, the person in charge immediately came over and asked, "How is it? What did they say?"
"The man surnamed Huo left with me and asked Liu Hongmin to talk to me. Liu Hongmin asked us to produce evidence of the errors in their textbooks. Where can I get the evidence?"
When the person in charge heard this, he also knew that Jeff Kozuka had failed. They just wanted to delete the history of aggression in the name of cooperation. This was a foregone conclusion. They couldn't even forge evidence. Where could they get false evidence?
