Although their dispute was deep and fiery, Xu Yun didn't care at all.
Xu Yun suddenly felt that if he wanted to put an end to this kind of self-awareness and self-awareness, he had to first establish a kind of self-awareness. No one was born inferior, no matter rich or poor, no matter where they came from, the first thing to do was to look at people as people. This was the source of human dignity.
People who always felt that they were being discriminated against often felt that they were inferior to others. That was why they felt that way.
If they didn't think so, they wouldn't have that kind of feeling.
If black people didn't feel that they were black people, they wouldn't scold each other like that. Even if other people said so, they wouldn't take it seriously.
Moreover, dignity was fought for by oneself!
"If you feel that you black people don't get enough respect, then learn to respect others first." Xu Yun finally said, "If you change, others will naturally change their view of you."
Fayanu didn't expect Xu Yun to suddenly interject, and he didn't react to how to refute Xu Yun.
After all, Xu Yun was the boss of the Sky Entertainment Group and mixed in the film and television industry. Although he was an unreliable boss, under the influence of Zuo Meiyan, Ruan Qingshuang, and others, he also had a deep understanding of the development of film and television in various countries around the world.
For some reason, Xu Yun suddenly thought of the change in the image of Hua Xia on the screen in Western movies.
"Do you know how big the change in Hua Xia and yellow people in Western countries was from the evil image of Fu Manzhou to the Red Storm?" Xu Yun said, "Let me tell you, from Fu Manzhou to the Red Storm, the image of Hua Xia and yellow people in Hollywood movies experienced significant changes in a period of time. This change was accompanied by the rise of Hua Xia's international status and cultural self-confidence, as well as the respect earned by the yellow people themselves! "
Fayanu also understood the Yellow Peril of the 19th century, and he knew what Xu Yun wanted to say.
"At that time, the incarnation of the Yellow Peril, Fu Manzhou, was active in the Western movie industry. His treacherous and evil image was always secluded in the dark world. He was proficient in all kinds of torture and poison, and he planned all kinds of evil deeds. He was the embodiment of all the worst imaginations that Westerners had of the Chinese people in the East. The movie usually ends with the white man defeating the other race and Fu Manzhou being punished to death. " Xu Yun said faintly, "There's another image of Detective Charlie Chen. He's gentle, witty, and submissive to Caucasians. Other than his thick accent, he rarely mentions Hua Xia. He represents the ideals and expectations that white people have for Hua Xia. "
"That was a hundred years ago. There's nothing to talk about," Fayanu said. "In the eyes of the white people, you yellow people are actually as lowly as us! You are also people of color! "
Xu Yun frowned. "Alright, then I'll say it's not that far away. You've seen 'Year of the Dragon', right? The story of a white police officer who retired from the Vietnam War tried to eradicate the underworld forces in New York's Chinatown with the attitude of punishing evil and promoting good, portraying the image of the filthy Chinatown and the evil and ferocious Chinese. "
"That's how you look in the eyes of white people!" Fayanu glared.
"But with the expansion of Hua Xia's cultural influence, the Disney Princess series also put on the coat of Hua Xia's classical culture. The story of Hua Mulan replacing her father in the army was transformed into a classic Hollywood story of heroic adventure. "Xu Yun said," This is the recognition that the yellow people fought for themselves. "
Fayanu snorted. "Self-righteous."
"Have you seen Kung Fu Panda? That's even more integrated with the traditional thinking of Hua Xia of Confucianism and Taoism. In the film, Po's master is a character who has a deep understanding of Hua Xia's martial arts connotation and philosophy. He understands what it means to teach according to one's aptitude and knows what it means to educate without discrimination. These are the contents of Confucianism. " Xu Yun said, "After the Olympics and the World Expo, Hua Xia's international status continued to rise. Hua Xia also appeared in mainstream Hollywood movies again and again with a positive, positive, and leading image!"
Fayanu still disagreed. "Hollywood movies will always have white people, yellow people, and black people! That's because they're worried about being scolded for racism! "
"The last line of defense for all mankind in the Pacific Rim was set up in Hua Xia, Hong Kong, and Macau. The mecha made by Hua Xia, the Crimson Storm, was an important part of the movie. In the disaster movie 2012, Noah's Ark made by Cho Ming Valley became the world's last refuge. China's space station, Tiangong No.1, even became the Garden of Eden to save Sandra Bullock. "As Xu Yun said this, he suddenly laughed.
Yes, on the screen, he had already seen the rise of Hua Xia!
Respect always needed to be fought for by oneself!
If Hua Xia wasn't strong enough, if Hua Xia didn't have the ability to explore the universe at all, the movie plot wouldn't have this!
In the 19th century, the yellow people of Hua Xia weren't even as good as black people in the eyes of the developed Western countries. At least black people were still black slaves that could be domesticated. The yellow people were evil and deserved to die.
But now?
The insufferably arrogant Americans needed the help of Hua Xia people. This was almost an impossible plot in the past Hollywood movies!
On the Shenzhou spaceship, Sandra Bullock was at a loss when faced with the pure Chinese buttons!
The change in Hua Xia's image came from the recognition of Hua Xia all over the world. It came from the recognition of the yellow people all over the world! The respect between countries was fought for by Hua Xia, and the recognition between races was also fought for by the yellow people themselves!
"Do you know why your race still feels discriminated against?" Xu Yun suddenly asked.
Fayanu replied disdainfully, "It's because you damn races always think you're infallible! You think you're very honorable! In fact, you're trash! "
"If you want to get the respect of others, you first have to respect others." Xu Yun said lightly, "A race that keeps using racial equality as a reason to commit crimes and harm others will never get the respect of others."
"You don't have to think about reasoning with him." Yi Shui said to Xu Yun, "Fayanu is one of the smartest black people I know … Even he has no way to understand our thoughts. The principal was so kind to him, but he could betray us. Do you think you have anything to talk about with him? What's there to talk about with their race? Different people have different thoughts. Everyone doesn't think they're wrong. It's just that their worldview, values, and outlook on life are different from the foundation. "
Xu Yun nodded. What Yi Shui said made sense. It was indeed so. Different races had different outlook on life from birth. The different environment of growing up and education made their values different. The different national conditions made their worldview different. What was there to argue about?
"Betrayal … You said I betrayed. I can admit it. I also admit that the principal was kind to me. But I don't think his kindness should be repaid by binding me for a lifetime!" Fayanu stared at Yi Shui. "Haven't I done enough for him?"
"What have you done?" Yi Shui asked.
Fayanu was speechless.
"I'm afraid you've already forgotten that the only reason you're still alive is because the headmaster brought you out of that tragic city." Yi Shui said, "Let me ask you, if now … you could only save your life by killing the principal, what would you do?"
Fayanu was silent.
He didn't need to say it. Yi Shui knew the answer.
"You wouldn't hesitate to make a move on the principal." Yi Shui said coldly, "This is your concept. You don't even care about your own family for your own interests, let alone someone who saved you."
"Do you have any other choice for your own life?" Fayanu asked.
Yi Shui snorted. "This is the biggest difference between our race and your race. Even if we die, we won't kill someone who saved our lives for our own survival!"
"Why do I suddenly think of a story called The Farmer and the Snake?" Yefala looked at Fayanu with contempt. "Your race is really like that snake."
Xu Yun waved his hand and said, "We don't need to have this kind of meaningless argument. Yi Shui is right. Different ideas will never be clear."
"Since you know that our ideas are different, why are there still so many who are willing to come to Hua Xia illegally? It's really speechless." Yefala got up and left. "I'll arrange a boat right away. I hope he can leave my house tonight. He makes me very uncomfortable here!"
