Revolution of 1911

A large-scale epic TV script, another masterpiece by the famous writer and film and television screenwriter Wang Chaozhu. The panoramic view shows the entire process of the Revolution of 1911 that overthrew the Qing government, ended the autocratic monarchy that had ruled China for thousands of years, and established a democratic republic. Taking Sun Yat-sen's revolutionary process as the main line, it focuses on major historical events such as the establishment of the China League, the Wuchang Uprising, the second revolution after the revolutionary achievements were stolen by Yuan Shikai, the War to Protect the Country, and the abolition of the imperial system. It reveals the struggle of the great forerunner Sun Yat-sen who "first raised the banner of thorough anti-feudalism" and "started a republic and ended with a monarchy" and never regretted it. It eulogizes the unyielding will of the national elite and people with lofty ideals who pursue democracy and freedom in the dark night, and the sacrificial spirit of the lower class people and new officers and soldiers who bravely join the revolution. The whole play respects historical truth and revolutionary practice, and paints a colorful picture of the turmoil in modern Chinese history. It can be called a vivid textbook of the Revolution of 1911.
