I am a historical film director in the entertainment industry.

Chapter 53, "The Qin King's Battle Song," and "The Great Tang Dynasty - Origins" became popular in Japan.

Three days in a row.

Cheng Sheng would either visit his neighbors or help his parents water the vegetables in the fields, and then take Qiao Shan to all the mountains in the village, a practice known as mountain climbing for exercise.

Qiao Shan has really gained weight. Cheng Sheng is afraid that Shan Zi will become as obese as Wei Lai, so of course he wants to help him lose weight.

As for whether Qiao Shan wanted to or not, Cheng Sheng had never considered it.

Every time he came back from a mountain climb, Qiao Shan was exhausted, like a dead dog.

This is all due to a lack of exercise.

Cheng Sheng wasn't much better than Qiao Shan, after all, he had spent many years studying in the capital and lacked physical training.

Three days passed quickly.

Thanks to the popularity of "Qin King's Battle Song", the box office of the movie "The Great Tang Dynasty - Origins" continued to be booming due to the holidays.

Everyone in the entertainment industry was glued to the box office charts, and they were all dumbfounded as they watched the box office numbers rise every day.

Their movies grossed millions at the box office, while the daily box office increase of "The Great Tang Dynasty - Origins" was more than that of their movies.

Jealousy and envy.

This is what everyone in the entertainment industry is thinking.

Recently, another news story has surfaced online.

The Kingdom of Xiao Rizi wants to borrow the score of "Qin King's Battle Song".

However, the government rejected it.

Foreign museums may borrow Chinese cultural relics for exhibition, but this is usually for short-term exhibitions and requires international cultural exchange and cooperation.

The history of Chinese cultural relics being exhibited overseas can be traced back to the 1970s. For example, the "Exhibition of Chinese Cultural Relics Unearthed" has been exhibited in many countries, attracting more than 6.5 million visitors.

In recent years, the frequency of Sino-foreign cooperative exhibitions has increased.

However, this is the first time in history that the score of "Qin King's Battle Song" has been borrowed.

This shows how popular the score of "Qin King's Battle Song" is in Japan.

The Qin King's Battle Song has a fragmentary score kept in Japan, which deeply angers the Chinese people, as it is a national treasure that was taken away by this ungrateful country.

Now that the country has the complete score of "Qin King's Battle Song," this nobody actually wants to borrow it—it's utterly shameless.

Many people in China haven't even had a chance to see the sheet music for "Qin King's Battle Song" yet!

If it were rented out now, would people from all over the country flock to Xiao Rizi to visit?
Therefore, the country naturally refused.

Such national treasures should definitely not be exhibited abroad.

The Japanese were rejected, but they certainly wouldn't give up. They kept submitting applications to the country's cultural and tourism departments and museums, hoping to borrow the national treasures.

As for why Little Days is so keen to rent the score of "Qin King's Battle Song", it goes back to when Daily Active Users bought the distribution rights of "The Great Tang Dynasty - Origins" in Little Days for five million US dollars.

After acquiring the Japanese distribution rights to the film, Nikkatsu did not immediately release it.

Instead, it was only after Cheng Sheng successfully produced the music for "Qin King's Battle Song," re-composed the music for the film, and obtained a brand new copy that it was released in major theaters across Japan the day after Cheng Sheng held the premiere.

Japan is a country that admires strength. If you ask which dynasty of China it likes, it will be the one that it submits to the most.

It wasn't the Qing Dynasty, nor the Ming Dynasty, nor the Yuan Dynasty or the Song Dynasty, but the Tang Dynasty.

The name of the Japanese emperor was learned from the Tang Dynasty.

At that time, Li Zhi was called the Emperor, and the people of the country began to call him the Emperor.

"The Great Tang Dynasty - Origins" was released nationwide in Japan. On its opening day, the box office was mediocre, with only a little over 35 million yen, equivalent to about 1.7 million yuan. However, after the audience left the theater, many people posted positive comments about the film online, and with Japanese state media also praising it, its reputation exploded.

Everyone in the world knows that Japan committed heinous crimes in modern history, and the Chinese people have a deep and abhorrent view of Japan.

But it also showed the world how crazy and obsessive the Chinese people can be.

This place called the Kingdom of Days is truly unfathomable.

You might call it perverse, but it has its own set of rules; you might call it rules, but it always manages to come up with some unexpected tricks.

Perhaps the environment in this country is so oppressive, and the pressure people endure every day is so great that sometimes they become obsessed with something to the point of madness.

Their madness after they completely fell in love with the movie "The Origins of the Tang Dynasty" was beyond anyone's imagination.

The film's overwhelmingly positive reviews have drawn waves of people to the cinemas to watch "The Origins of the Tang Dynasty," making them fall madly in love with everything in the movie.

Actors, history, costumes, props, etc.

Japanese media even meticulously analyzed everything in the film, discovering that the film's level of realism was astonishing, just like the real Tang Dynasty.

After listening to the "Qin King's Battle Song" in the movie, they felt a sense of submission, even though they were born with a sense of insecurity.

Yes, they had too much reverence for the Tang Dynasty.

Historically, Kang Youwei, a prominent figure during the Qing Dynasty, once commented on Japan: "This country and its people are fickle and do not know the meaning of kindness and righteousness in the world; they only know how to revere power."

While this statement was somewhat sharp, it did reveal some of the characteristics of Japan at that time.

Ancient Japan learned Confucian culture from the Tang Dynasty, but due to its own national conditions, it only absorbed a part of it, especially the "reason" in "benevolence, righteousness, wisdom, and trustworthiness," while neglecting other aspects.

Over time, Japanese society developed strict rules.

When the complete score of "Qin King's Battle Song" was revealed to exist in China, the entire country was in an uproar.

In short, they want it.

But today's China is not the China of the past; it's not something you can just decide to do as you please.

Since they couldn't get it, they could only plead in a low voice.

Therefore, in order to satisfy the desires of the Japanese people, major museums in Japan submitted applications to the National Museum of China, hoping to borrow the score of "Qin King's Battle Song" for exhibition in Japan.

After being rejected countless times, the Prime Minister of Japan had no choice but to step in and hope to accomplish this impossible task at the national level.

But how could it be sent abroad for exhibition when even the Chinese themselves haven't finished visiting it?

Refuse.

They were all rejected.

Furthermore, the "Qin King's Battle Song" was listed as a national treasure that is prohibited from being exhibited abroad.

It instantly 'killed' the hopes of all ordinary Chinese people.

You want to see the sheet music for "Qin King's Battle Song", right?
sure!
Come to China.

Once you've paid, you can look at it however you want.

In other words, after the government issued a ban on overseas exhibitions, the number of passengers at the Capital Airport suddenly increased several times, and the foreign passengers were mostly from Japan.

Clearly, these people were all there for the score of "Qin King's Battle Song".

The movie "The Origins of the Tang Dynasty" and "The Qin King's Battle Song" became hits in China, instantly becoming a topic of national discussion.
