Everyone pointed out Zhang him as a "Jing Japanese element."

Although many years have passed since the War of Resistance Against Japan, as a Chinese, national hatred and family hatred cannot be forgotten.
Ten years ago, there was a Chinese young man who was dissatisfied with Japan's attitude towards comfort women. After burning the Yasukuni Shrine in Japan, he fled to South Korea and burned down the Japanese consulate in South Korea.
and the young man who made the shocking move is Liu Qiang. The two arson incidents of
made him sought after by the people of China and South Korea. At the same time, negative labels such as "troublemaker" and "obstructive" also followed.
His life trajectory also suddenly turned, not only lost his job, but also betrayed.
So, what happened to Liu Qiang in the past 10 years?
[01] National enemies hate the family
Liu Qiang burns the Yasukuni Shrine is not idle, but has a deep family history. During the War of Resistance Against Japan, Japan committed heinous crimes against the Chinese people, resulting in the death of more than 17 million civilians. More than 20 million soldiers were covered in horse leather, and countless families were victims.
Every bloody Chinese can grit his teeth with hatred as long as he looks back on this history. But for Liu Qiang, in addition to national hatred, also hates .
Liu Qiang's great-grandfather and grandmother were Koreans. His great-grandfather Li Shengwu was a teacher. He was not willing to be enslaved by Japan and taught Korean secretly. He was tortured to death by the Japanese army.
Grandmother Yang Ying (formerly known as Li Lanying) grew up in the Japanese-occupied area. Later, she was captured by the Japanese army and taken to China to become a comfort woman.
For Yang Ying, that period of time was unbearable to look back, and it was simply better to die than life.
After World War II, Japan denied the crimes committed against comfort women .
Yang Ying couldn't hear an apology from the Japanese until she died. She passed away with injuries and regrets. This experience of grandmother made Liu Qiang very distressed. He longed to be able to do something for women like grandmother who were hurt by Japan when he grew up.
[02] Unfair treatment
Because of his special family background, Liu Qiang has a strong sense of family and country since he was a child, and he hates Japanese militarism more than the average person, but he is not malicious towards ordinary Japanese people, but is very friendly.
In 2011, the "3.11" earthquake broke out in Japan, and the earthquake triggered a tsunami.
Liu Qiang is a psychotherapist in China. He once worked as a volunteer in the Wenchuan earthquake. He can deeply understand the disaster and pain caused by the earthquake to the people.
With a universal spirit of internationalism, Liu Qiang rushed to Japan to become a volunteer. Because Liu Qiang was not very good at Japanese, he went to a language school in Kayama County for short Japanese training.
In this language school, Liu Qiang came into contact with many descendants of the Japanese invaders.
These Japanese know very little about the history of the Japanese invasion of China. When it comes to that period of history, there is no shame on their faces, but pride on their faces.
In this school, Liu Qiang can clearly feel the discrimination and disrespect of the Japanese towards the Chinese. This discrimination is like they are born with them.
He discovered that a dean of the dean was very respectful to Japanese students and even other students, except that he yelled five and six to Chinese students.
Once, Liu Qiang and the Dean of Academic Affairs quarreled about equal treatment. Liu Qiang mentioned the Japanese burning, killing and looting in China during World War II.Let him apologize to the Chinese.
However, the dean of the dean said: "They are soldiers, just carrying out orders, why should they apologize?" Although
could not change the dean of the dean, Liu Qiang took every opportunity to promote the history of Japanese invasion of China among the students.
At a party, the versatile Liu Qiang was invited to play music, and he used this to tell the students about the tragic Nanjing Massacre.
Liu Qiang's approach made the school very uncomfortable, and he was expelled from the school not long after. Although
was treated unfairly, Liu Qiang still went to Fukushima, Japan, and did his best to fulfill the duties of volunteers, donating blood to help and providing psychological counseling, and was praised by the local people.
If there was no subsequent fire incident of the Yasukuni Shrine, Liu Qiang would return to China to continue to be a respected English lecturer and psychotherapist after the end of the volunteer activities, and his life trajectory would not change much.
[03] Burning the Yasukuni Shrine
Mentioning the Yasukuni Shrine, every Chinese will feel resentful.
is dedicated to the 12 Class A war criminals tried by Far East International Military Tribunal after World War II, including Hideki Tojo and Kenji Doihara. The hands of these war criminals are stained with the blood of the Chinese people.
However, some Japanese politicians visit the Yasukuni Shrine for various reasons in April and October each year, or perform sacrificial activities.
Many people have germinated the idea of "burning the Yasukuni Shrine", , but it is Liu Qiang who really put it into practice.
On December 18, 2011, during the visit of the then South Korean President Lee Myung-bak to Japan, he formally proposed to Japanese Prime Minister Yoshihiko Noda to solve the problem of comfort women, but Yoshihiko Noda denied this history and refused to apologize and compensate.
Not only that, but Japanese congressmen also publicly visited the Yasukuni Shrine.
When Liu Qiang saw this current political news on TV, he thought of former Japanese Prime Minister Koizumi’s multiple visits to the Yasukuni Shrine, thought of his grandmother’s tragic experience as a comfort woman, and thought of the unfair treatment in Japan during this time. Suddenly, the anti-Japanese anger was overwhelming. He picked up a red pen and angrily wrote the word "apologies" on the white T-shirt.
Nearly four o'clock in the morning on December 26, 2011, Liu Qiang, wearing a scarf and wearing a black down jacket, came to the side entrance of the Yasukuni Shrine where he had stepped on. At this time, everything around was silent, only the patrolling police cars passing by occasionally. As soon as the police car left, Liu Qiang immediately crossed the one-meter-high fence and hid under a big tree.
He poured gasoline in a Makgeolli bottle on the base of the shrine and the national emblem on top. When Liu Qiang ignited the gasoline, the fire blazed into the sky.
Any behavior is not groundless. The burning of Yasukuni Shrine by
can be said to be a concentrated outbreak of Liu Qiang’s resentment towards Japan for many years. He is using his own way to protest against the crimes of Japanese militarism against humanity.
[04] After being extradited to China
and burning the Yasukuni Shrine, Liu Qiang followed the pre-designed route to South Korea.
He went to the place where his grandmother used to live, and searched for the prison where his great-grandfather was imprisoned. He is also always paying attention to the negotiations between Japan and South Korea on the issue of comfort women.
When he learned that Japan had a tough attitude towards the comfort women issue, Liu Qiang was furious again for a while. This time, the fire went directly to the Japanese Embassy in South Korea.
did not run away this time, but waited for the arrival of the police.
Liu Qiang burned Japanese buildings twice, which made Japan angry.
Japan strongly urges South Korea to extradite Liu Qiang to Japan for trial. But how could South Korea, which had just had an unpleasant relationship with Japan, easily hand over Liu Qiang to Japan?
In addition, South Korean non-governmental anti-Japanese groups held high the banner of "refuse extradition and face up to history" and spontaneously went to the High Court of Seoul to protest, which also brought certain pressure to the South Korean government.
At that time, the Chinese government also negotiated with South Korea in the case of Liu Qiang. The final result of
is that the South Korean governmentLiu Qiang was sentenced to 10 months' imprisonment for arson (actually 10 days).
10 months later, South Korea rejected Japan’s request and instead extradited Liu Qiang back to China. After Liu Qiang returned to China unharmed, many people were relieved.
Later, someone asked Liu Qiang why he set fire to the Yasukuni Shrine. Liu Qiang said: "For , let the Japanese see the self-improvement and resistance spirit of the Chinese people, in order to arouse the national spirit of the Chinese people ." It is also a household name after returning home.
But what Liu Qiang didn't expect was that while he was being sought after, negative waves such as "troublemaker" and " bipolar disorder " also hit his face, and made his life trajectory suddenly turn to .
In the eyes of everyone, Liu Qiang is no longer the polite psychotherapist in the past, but an "alternative" with out-of-mouth behavior. The foreign language training institutions and psychology courses that he had cooperated with originally thought that his thoughts were extreme, and they disconnected from him.
After Liu Qiang returned to his hometown in Shanghai, someone from some news organizations came to him and asked him about the situation, and people around him gave him pointers. Forget about
others, even his family members do not understand his behavior.
’s father’s most common words are "shameful!" "Get into trouble!"
In the end, his wife divorced him in anger, and his parents gradually estranged from him.
It can be said that after Liu Qiang returned to China, the people betrayed their relatives, and life was not easy. But Liu Qiang has no regrets for his actions back then. He said: "If comes back, he will still choose to rebel against ." After returning to China, Liu Qiang became a fighter on the anti-Japanese front without hesitation.
He founded the Ryukyu History Research Association, whose main purpose is to verify some historical truths.
Liu Qiang organized many volunteers to collect evidence from Japan. Many of the victims had passed away. This work was difficult, but he did not give up. He hoped that through his own efforts, one day he could seek justice from Japan.
Because of the lack of understanding and support in his hometown of Shanghai, Liu Qiang went to Guangzhou alone.
He decided to adopt a relatively rational "theatrical performance" method to arouse the patriotic enthusiasm of the people.
On June 11, 2014, 40-year-old Liu Qiang came to the gate of the Japanese Consulate General in Guangzhou. Liu Qiang stripped off his shirt and showed it on his back, with the words "Being faithful and loyal to the country" tattooed on it. Then he showed his calligraphy works, the words "Japan Apologizes" and "The Rise of China" are powerful and powerful.
Liu Qiang is often surrounded by police officers, some staff, and crowds who come to watch. He alternately used Mandarin, Cantonese, English Loud and Crowd Theory.
Not long after the beginning of each time, the police would come and take him away routinely for inquiries, registrations, and records.
And when Liu Qiang saw the police car approaching, he would quickly pack up his clothes and calligraphy works, smiled and greeted him, and asked: "Which police officer is here today?"
Obviously, he has already dealt with these. The police are very familiar.
Regarding Liu Qiang’s behavior, some people support him, believing that he has a sincere patriotism and an obsession to seek justice from Japan; but more people do not understand him, think he is paranoid, and "make a show." ", in Bo Ren's eyeballs.
The attitude of some people towards Liu Qiang actually reflects their attitude towards Japan's invasion of China.
Now, decades of war have passed. Regarding Japan's tragic history of aggression, with the passing of some old people who participated in the war, many people can only read it in history books without deep feeling.
They always think that this history is too far away from them, and some people say: It has been so many years, and they should be forgiven.
But anyone who has seen the real video data of the War of Resistance Against Japan knows that behind these real video data are the roar of men, the cry of women, the howling of children, and the scattered wives of countless families.
these real image dataIt is more terrifying than any horror movie you have ever seen, more shocking than any war movie you have ever seen, and more tragic than any tragic movie you have ever seen. Without personal experience, what right do we have to forgive Japan for our ancestors?
Remembering history is to face history squarely, to make our nation stronger, to make our country stand in the east forever, and no longer be bullied by others .
I admire Liu Qiang's courage. He has done many things that Chinese people want to do but dare not do. He deserves to be respected by Chinese people, not ridiculed. Liu Qiang is a real man and hero, praise him.
. END .
