In a class at the University of Tokyo, a professor played a documentary that glorified aggression: "The Nanjing Massacre was Kuomintang propaganda, and the actual death toll was less than 30,000."
Chen Ji raised his hand and said calmly: "According to the verdict of the International Military Tribunal for the Far East, the number of victims in Nanjing exceeded 200,000. According to the files of the Japanese Ministry of Foreign Affairs, in December 1937 alone, the number of corpses buried by the Japanese army in Nanjing exceeded 150,000."
The whole class burst into laughter.
The professor sneered: "Are you Chinese? I understand your national sentiment."
