Rebirth In Hollywood

For Iran, there is a special festival in August every year. This is the "International Jerusalem Day" set up by Khomeini, who has brought Iran into the religion completely. It calls on Muslims to hold a parade on the last Friday of Ramadan every year to show solidarity with Palestine. People's struggle, Iran holds large-scale rallies on this day every year.

This year is no exception. On the "International Jerusalem Day", tens of thousands of Iranians took to the streets of Tehran. They burned large satellites and the Israeli flag while shouting "Death to America! Death to Israel!" slogan.

As the representative of theocracy in the secular world, Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad also delivered a speech against the West, and "Three Hundred Spartans", which was just released in the Middle East, naturally became one of the targets of the attack.

"This film does not conform to historical facts. It demonizes the ancestors of Iran, the Persians, and depicts the ancestors of Iran as a cruel and inhuman nation. "Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta" is equivalent to a declaration of war on Iran!"

This is Ahmadinejad's speech broadcast on Al Jazeera. He also announced a ban on the domestic broadcast of "Spartan 300 Warriors" and called on other Islamic countries to ban it.

As if years of energy had been building up at the same time, Iranian media, officials and bloggers denounced "Three Hundred Spartans" as being too negative for its portrayal of Persian King Xerxes I and Persian soldiers - the film seems to tell people , Iran has been the source of evil since ancient times, and the ancestors of modern Iranians were ugly savages who murdered others.

Iranian officials directly claimed that this is another "culture war" that Hollywood has launched against Iran after "Argo".

They seem to have learned the lessons of the failure of the last public opinion war. Regardless of the voices of the people, the government no longer easily fires the 'map gun', but sticks to the topic of 'cultural aggression'.

"Cultural invasion is the enemy's usual tactic, and such slander and insult Iran will neither accept nor fear."

What is the true face of Hollywood. In fact, most countries and regions have understood over the years that those mercenary producers have smeared a country for the sake of profit, which has happened more than once.

Although the North American media is still satirizing Iran – with a narrow tolerance, like the Persians in the film, with the characteristics of a brutal dictator – many media in the Middle East have temporarily responded to Iran with a sympathetic attitude.

"At present, the United States and Iran are quarreling endlessly over the nuclear issue, and Western countries are seeking tougher sanctions from the United Nations on Iran. Hollywood is launching this film at this sensitive time. It is clearly using cultural and psychological tactics to insult Iran's ancient culture to stimulate Modern people are hostile to Iran."

This is the view of many Middle Eastern media. After Ryan saw it,

I don't care at all. Hollywood has always put business first, and major film companies are even more skilled in marketing. Creating controversy is an effective way to gain popularity.

"Three Hundred Spartans" is starred by second-tier actors and second-tier directors, and there are no superstars in the film. The fierce reaction from Iran has instead made the film a hot spot in international news. In addition to the already hot North American market, the overseas box office figures are also rising.

In just 20 days, "Three Hundred Spartans" grossed more than $200 million at the North American box office. The global box office easily passed the $350 million mark amid protests from the Iranians.

Perhaps it was the fiasco in the public opinion war about "Argo". The Iranian government has obviously restrained a lot, and it always talks about movies and culture. It is easy not to open the group ridicule mode...

The media in North America jumped up and down at the beginning, ready to make a big fight again, but unfortunately their opponents never made any effort. However, in just a few days, the attention has plummeted.

However, the neglected media of another country suddenly spoke up at this time, breaking the somewhat deserted public opinion scene.

"International Jerusalem Day" is called pro-Palestine, but it's actually anti-Israel, and it would be strange if Israel didn't respond with the burning of large satellites and Israeli flags at public rallies.

Israel's "Ha'aretz" not only published routine protests, but also brought out "Three Hundred Spartans" to speak out.

"Iranian people's reaction to "Three Hundred Spartans" is really funny. To be precise, Islamists destroyed Persia and destroyed the Persian civilization represented by Zoroastrianism. Hollywood filmed this no longer exists. Movies of barbaric civilization, is it their turn to get the real enemies and enemies of the Persian civilization to maintain the dignity of the 'Persians'?"

"Modern so-called Persians have lost all ancient cultures including writing and embraced Islam in their entirety. They have also been reduced from the ruling nation to slaves of Arabs, Mongols, Turks and Azerbaijanis. Modern Persians Iran Completely out of touch with ancient history, they are different from us, they are a nation without history!"

"Iran, an outlier in the Middle East, from a certain perspective, is a low-level version of the failure of their own civilization. They have lost their own history, writing and religion, and become a subculture that has been conquered by other cultures..."

Being ridiculed by Hollywood and North American media, Iran could endure it, but being ridiculed by Israel, which must be eliminated by itself, Iran almost immediately fell into a state of rampage.

The Haaretz remarks came a day after Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad delivered a fiery speech.

"Israel's 'Zionist regime and Zionists' is a cancer that will soon be removed!"

"A new Middle East is about to be built, and because of the protection of God and the help of the people, there will be no more Americans and Zionists in the new Middle East. The existence of the Zionist regime is a great challenge for all mankind. Great shame. In fact, to attack the Zionist regime is to protect the rights and dignity of all human beings!”

At the same time, Ahmadinejad ordered the blocking of world-renowned websites, including the New York Times website, Amazon website, Google Search, etc. All radio stations and TV stations in the country were banned from playing Western music and foreign films, especially those containing content that violated Iran’s A film about the Western cultural elements of Muslim culture.

Of course, the aforementioned websites and cultural products were previously unable to enter Iran through formal channels.

The Iranian government's attitude towards Israel and Western culture finally triggered a series of chain reactions.

The first to jump out must be the federal government. The White House spokesman severely condemned Ahmadinejad. He said that if the Iranian government really cares about protecting the rights and dignity of all human beings, then the Iranian government should stop nuclear testing, liberate women and eliminate Extreme religiousism, that is the real contribution to all mankind.

On the same day, a spokesman for the United Nations Security Council issued a statement saying that the Security Council was strongly dissatisfied with Ahmadinejad's remarks, and he believed that national leaders in the Middle East should use his influence to "deescalate rather than increase tensions in the region."

Even France and Russia, which have always been accommodating to Iran, suddenly changed their faces, calling Ahmadinejad's speech "outrageous and intolerable".

Finally, a cultural controversy has once again evolved into a socio-political focus.

It was at this time that Ryan received an invitation from the National Jewish Association to rush to Burbank, the world's media capital, to attend an informal reception. Although the reception did not explicitly discuss recent hot topics, many Jewish people from the media industry were present. They all understood the purpose of the reception and reached a silent tacit understanding.

Subsequently, many media in North America began a new round of smear campaign against Iran, and major media under Walt Disney, including Children's Channel, once again launched a propaganda campaign to smear from teenagers.

For Ryan, the Iranians are neither the compatriots of the past life, but also the opposite of the present life. He does not care whether their reputation is good or bad.

TV stations soon aired a tape of Ahmadinejad sternly accusing him and the Iranian government he represents of denying the Holocaust.

"In a nationally televised speech in Iran in December 2005, Ahmadinejad called the Holocaust a myth. A year later, he held a two-day Holocaust denial conference!"

After the video was broadcast, the TV station also quoted several well-known social commentators - the remarks of Ahmadinejad and the Iranian government will only deceive the ignorant and illiterate, and in Western civilization, it will make them look ridiculous, the fact Yes the Holocaust is the most well-documented event in human history!

The program also claimed that the Iranian government is either brazenly provocative or staggeringly ignorant in its treatment of Jews, and that they should immediately stop this behavior that has made the world angry.

Similar arguments appeared on TV programs, even pointing out that Ahmadinejad's Iranian government is a religious puppet.

"As a unique country with dual politics of theocracy and regime, Ahmadinejad is not actually the real head of state. Khamenei and the great Ayatollahs around him are the real masters of Iran. Iran's internal affairs today, The main axis of diplomacy is not so much the assertion of Ahmadinejad, but rather the position of the great Ayatollahs who have no worldly experience. These people who are out of touch and isolated from the world are bringing Iran into the abyss of extremism... "

The situation in the Persian Gulf suddenly became tense, the Security Council warned Iran to give up its nuclear test as soon as possible, and Ahmadinejad's answer was - why do you have this right, but we don't?

This is simply a blatant provocation of the authority of the five rogue states. The United Nations passed a new round of sanctions against Iran at the fastest speed, and the federal government even added additional unilateral sanctions...

Subsequently, the head of the White House specializing in Hollywood affairs found several major production companies, urging Hollywood to make further films about Iran, and the federal government will pay for some of the costs. (To be continued..) ()
