Synopsis

[Puppet Manchukuo + traitors + comprador literati + history] A pseudo history of the puppet capital, and the true shame of a traitor literati. This story takes place in Changchun, the capital of the Puppet Manchukuo period (renamed Xinjing at that time). The protagonist is a famous writer named Xiao Dasheng. Xiao Dasheng, with the ambition of saving the country, traveled east to Japan to study. While studying abroad, he engaged in literary creation and published many works, which had a great influence in Japan and Southeast Asia. After returning to Changchun, coinciding with the establishment of the Puppet Manchukuo, he became the target of the Japanese's efforts to win over. According to classmate Lin Zihou, the position of president of the Manchurian Literature Society was reserved for him. Although the Japanese claimed that Manchuria belonged to the Manchus, Xiao Dasheng felt that he had become a slave to the subjugation of his country. He knew in his heart that he should stick to the integrity of the Chinese literati, but in the end he succumbed to the iron heel of the Japanese. He humiliatedly participated in the creation of the script of "The Manchu Girl", a film that glorified the war of aggression against China. Although he resisted in his heart and fought a little, he eventually became a traitor. After Xiao Dasheng returned to China, he became emotionally involved with his mentor's daughter Hideko Xiaoye, the female director Kumi Yano, the maid Hengtetsu Eiko, and his classmate Zhu Yu. His restless soul, weak character, despicable personality, repressed humanity, and strong sexual desire are all vividly reflected through his interactions with these women. At the end of the story, Changchun was liberated, Xiao Dasheng's workplace, the pseudo-Manchuria Film Company, was littered with corpses, the national tree of the pseudo-Manchuria fell and scattered, and the women around him also died and scattered, and he realized that he had no way out. When the work was serialized in 2000, it was considered by Changchun people to truly reflect the true style of Changchun during the Manchukuo period, and caused a huge response.

Reader comments

The so-called new country was actually a vassal of the Japanese Kwantung Army, and the Manchus became veritable slaves of the subjugated nation. Xiao Dasheng finally realized that he was cornered amidst the artillery fire of the liberation of Changchun. This was not only a mockery of his personal conscience, but also a warning to all attached aggressors. Those who lose their national integrity will eventually be abandoned by history.
