The Paper reported on the 18th that the mainland animation film “Thirty Thousand Miles of Chang’an” fell into the “apology whirlpool” one following another before this year’s summer film ended perfectly. In addition to the unauthorized use of the video art setting collection, “EXCA_Bao Xiaowang does not open the class” personal work “Ji Le Tian”, and a paid authorization agreement was reached following apology and communication. What’s more troublesome is that netizens in Luoyang, Henan corrected their mistakes, pointing out that many historical facts in Luoyang, such as Li Bai and Du Fu’s first encounter, were changed to Chang’an and other places in the film, “disrespecting history” and “hurting the feelings of Luoyang people”.
As of 23:00 on the 16th, the box office of “Thirty Thousand Miles of Chang’an” has reached 1.733 billion yuan (RMB, the same below), becoming the top box office box office of animated films in mainland China in 2023, ranking second in the box office of animated films in Chinese film history, second only to “Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World” (5.035 billion).
The official WeChat account of the Sui and Tang History Society of Luoyang City issued a statement saying that some of the plot descriptions in the film do not match the real history, and the stories that happened to some characters do not match the real history, which can easily mislead the audience, especially young audiences, and affect the birthplace of historical figures , Compatriot feelings at the place where the incident occurred.
In fact, as early as July, when the film hit theaters, some netizens in Luoyang, Henan corrected their mistakes. Even when the film was on the road show in Luoyang, some viewers expressed their dissatisfaction by typing “The sun and the moon are shining together, and the epic meets in “Luoyang””, emphasizing that “very hurt the hearts of Luoyang people.”
The reason is that it is recorded in history that Li Bai and Du Fu met for the first time in Luoyang, but in the film it changed to Chang’an. In addition, Li Bai’s poems, Pei Min’s sword dance, and Zhang Xu’s cursive script “Three Unique Combinations” also took place in Luoyang, but in the film it is Yangzhou.
The Luoyang Sui and Tang History Society issued a statement on its official WeChat account on the 16th: In order to restore the real history and maintain the authenticity of historical figures, Henan Luotai Law Firm has been entrusted to appoint Jianwei Qiu, Shuaibiao Qiu, Jiaming Fang, and Sui Huang (internship) and other lawyers formed a team of lawyers to send a lawyer’s letter to the producer, requesting the producer, director, screenwriter, etc. of the movie “Three Thousand Miles of Chang’an” to issue a statement of error correction and apology.
The Paper reported that Wang Kai, president of the Sui and Tang History Society of Luoyang City, said in response to the above-mentioned statement of the society that the society is not trying to gossip regarding the news hotspot of “Three Thousand Miles of Chang’an”, “We are maintaining a responsible attitude towards historical facts.”
Henan Luotai Law Firm reported on the 16th that following research, discussion and analysis by the Luoyang Sui and Tang History Society, at least 4 plots in the film were inconsistent with the real history, and the law firm was entrusted to submit a report to Shanghai, the producer of “Three Thousand Miles of Chang’an”. Chasing Light Films Co., Ltd., film directors Xie Junwei, and Zou Jing issued a lawyer’s letter, requesting the producer and film director to correct the inconsistencies in the film’s plot and apologize to the audience.
However, the Luoyang Sui and Tang History Society stated in a statement, “Although the producer cannot be demanded to delete or modify the film at this time, it should at least issue a statement acknowledging the errors or errors in the film, restoring the historical truth, and apologizing to the audience across the country. Quit the scolding wars of netizens everywhere.”
The Paper reported that the Sui and Tang History Society of Luoyang mainly emphasized two points in its statement: First, the movie “Thirty Thousand Miles of Chang’an” is an animated historical film, not a fictional joke regarding history. The second is that many plots in the film are obviously inconsistent with history.
For example, 1. Li Bai and Du Fu met for the first time in Luoyang, not the Chang’an described in the film; 2. Du Fu lived in Luoyang in his early years, not the Chang’an described in the film; 3. “Three Wonders in a Day” happened in Luoyang Tiangong Temple, Not Yangzhou; 4. It was Li Bai who rescued Guo Ziyi, not Gao Shi as described in the film.
In July this year, Wang Kai listed 6 inaccuracies in the movie when he was interviewed by the media following the movie “Thirty Thousand Miles of Chang’an” was released:
1.7-year-old Du Fu appeared in Chang’an, the fact is: Du Fu should be in Luoyang at this time;
2. Du Fu met and got acquainted with Gao Shi in the Qiwang residence in Chang’an. The fact is: the two met in Wenshang, Shandong;
3. At the age of seven, Du Fu saw Li Guinian in Qiwang’s residence. The fact is: “It is common to see Li Guinian in Qiwang’s residence, and Cui Jiutang heard regarding it several times before.” These are all Du Fu’s memories of what he saw and heard in Luoyang when he was a teenager;
4. Gao Shi’s father passed away, and Gao Shi helped the spirit to stay in Guangling for three years. The fact is: Gao Shi’s father died and was buried in Luoyang the following year;
5. Pei Min, Wu Daozi, and Zhang Xu will meet in Yangzhou. The fact is: these three people will meet in Luoyang Tiangong Temple;
6. Du Fu and Gao Shi went to Qujiang Restaurant to meet Li Bai. The fact is: Li and Du met for the first time in Luoyang, and later met Gao Shi when they traveled together in Liang and Song.
Wang Kai believed at that time that the historical sites and articles left by Li Bai and Du Fu in Luoyang were already part of Luoyang’s history and culture. Moreover, in the Tang Dynasty, Luoyang and Chang’an were both capitals, and they were roughly in the same position. Local audiences express dissatisfaction with the transplantation of Luoyang’s history and culture to Chang’an or other places in the film, and may think it is an offense to Luoyang’s history and culture.
