In the modern history of the mainland, many heroes have emerged, who stood up and shed their blood for the country and the people at the critical moment when the country was ruined and their families were ruined, and their names will always be remembered by the people. But there is also such a group of people, who have become the tools of the Japanese army and are hated by the people.
Japanese woman becomes a Chinese star
Li Xianglan, born in Liaoning in 1920, is actually a descendant of the Japanese. When she was 12 years old, her family moved from Fushun to Shenyang because her father was suspected of being a traitor by the Japanese army. On the train, she became acquainted with a Russian girl, who in turn introduced her to the Soviet opera singer Mrs. Podoresov. After seeing Li Xianglan, Mrs. felt that Li Xianglan was beautiful and had a good timbre, so she decided to teach her to sing, which also laid a good foundation for her acting career.
With her own efforts, she also has some fame in the Northeast, but this does not make her famous, she also needs a promoter. In 1938, the puppet Manchukuo established a film company called Manchurian Pictures, which was not a purely commercial company, but an organization controlled by Japan, mainly to promote Japanese policies and beautify the Japanese through films, songs and other forms. She joined the pack.
Under the packaging and publicity of the movie, she quickly became popular and became the number one star at that time. Because she performed songs praising Japan's aggression at that time, such as "The Triumphant Song of the Kwantung Army" and "The National Anthem of Manchukuo", and the movies she starred in were also works that emphasized Sino-Japanese friendship, she also became a "female traitor" in the eyes of the people.
In the 40s, Li Xianglan began to move to Shanghai Tang. At that time, there were already many stars in Shanghai, as well as Zhou Xuan, Bai Guang, Zhang Lu, and Wu Yingyin, who were known as the "Four Queens of Shanghai". It is not so easy for her to occupy a place in Shanghai. Coincidentally, in 1944, Li Jinguang created a song "Night Fragrance", and later Li Jinguang and Li Xianglan got acquainted, Li Jinguang handed over this song to Li Xianglan to sing, and then with the popularity of "Night Fragrance", Li Xianglan also became the "Five Queens of Shanghai", and her acting career reached its peak.
Celebrity celebrities are actually a Japanese propaganda tool
In 1945, Japan announced its unconditional surrender, and the days of many traitors and traitors came to an end. In the arrest list of the national army, there is Li Xianglan's name, and the crime is "traitor". At the time of the trial, Li Xianglan suddenly revealed her identity in the court, she was Japanese, and this news also surprised many people.
Li Xianglan's father and mother are Japanese, but later her father passed her to the Chinese Li Jichun, and Li Xianglan was born. Because of her special status, the national government had no choice but to release her and repatriate her to Japan, and in 2014, Li Xianglan died at the age of 94. It is worth mentioning that her adoptive father Li Jichun did not have this gold medal for avoiding death, Li Jichun was a veritable traitor, and was later sentenced to death.
