Let's make it clearer that nations must be strong

Because I watched Nanjing Nanjing first, this film was shot as people from other countries, so it didn't make people feel so uncomfortable. Also denounced those perverted Japanese. Seeing that humiliating history made me realize more deeply that the country must be strong, arouse the national consciousness, and the Chinese must unite as one, do their work well, and make a little contribution to the society. Don't feel that what you do is trivial. I believe that every day's persistence will definitely bring about the butterfly effect. I wish our great motherland more prosperity!

There are three places in the play that make me cry: 1. Rabe lets refugees escape the bombing of Japanese planes under the banner of the Nazis (someone always does angelic things in the name of Nazis, just like some people do devil things in the name of God); 2. Rabe abstained when the Security Committee was established. Another doctor was dissatisfied with Rabe’s chairmanship and voted against it. However, they still obeyed the voting results and assumed the chairmanship and vice chairmanship (this is a sense of responsibility!); 3. The people who saved 200,000 people were killed. Forgotten and poor

Rabe, a strong man. Morality. Rabe demonstrated what is righteous and virtuous.

John Rabe: To the Führer of the German people. Chancellor Adolf Hitler. My Führer. As a loyal party member and upstanding German. I turn to you in a time of great need. The Japanese Imperial troops conquered the city of Nanking on December 12, 1937. Since then I have witnessed atrocious crimes against civilians. Please help to end this catastrophe and make an appeal to our Japanese allies in the name of humanity. With a German salute.

John Rabe: Stop it! This is the safety zone. Get out and leave the women alone.
[Rabe switches to German and makes a Nazi salute]
John Rabe: We're Germans. Germans. We're Germans.
[Japanese officer aims his pistol at Rabe]
John Rabe: Help me out here, damn it!
Dr. Georg Rosen: [Rosen also makes a Nazi salute] Heil... Shitler. Heil Shitler.
John Rabe: [after resolving the situation] That's not funny.
Dr. Georg Rosen: We got through.
John Rabe: All the same, he is the Führer of the German people.
Dr. Georg Rosen: And shall I tell you what I don't find funny?
John Rabe: Yes what is it?
Dr. Georg Rosen: It also concerns the so-called Führer.
John Rabe: Listen here...
Dr. Georg Rosen: Friedrich Rosen, my father. An ambassador and foreign minister, forced to flee and die in China. Simply because my grandfather, Beethoven's best friend, no less, happened to be Jewish. My father couldn't die in the country he always lived for. That's not funny. Nor is my position as secretary. After years as embassy councillor. I should be glad to even be alive. Do you think that's funny?
[Rosen makes a Nazi salute]
Dr. Georg Rosen: Heil Shitler.
