Some media reporters even placed side by side a photo from years ago of Japanese representatives bowing deeply and respectfully at the surrender ceremony after the War of Resistance victory, a photo of Tian Zhongsaburo bowing to apologize to Fang Kaizhi at the Oscar ceremony, and a photo of Fang Kaizhi holding the golden statuette onstage. Beneath them was an especially stirring headline: "The motherland, once left in ruins and awaiting renewal, has now grown strong. We will prove to the world that Huaxia is still qualified to stand tall in the East and continue the glory of history."
Many years later, whenever people spoke of that Oscar ceremony, or the rise of Huaxia's film history, they would think of that night. They would think of Japanese director Tian Zhongsaburo bowing to apologize to Huaxia director Fang Kaizhi. They would think of Director Fang Kaizhi saying in Huaxia language at the world's most influential film gala, "Although Huaxia's film industry is not yet sufficiently developed, generation after generation of filmmakers will work tirelessly to create more and better works."
This day was worth remembering for every Huaxia filmmaker. Because it was the first time Huaxia filmmakers had made their own voices heard at the Oscar ceremony.
For film fans watching the ceremony in front of their televisions, the end of the live broadcast meant that this year's Oscars had come to a perfect close. But for the Autumn Dew White crew, who had just received a golden statuette, their Oscar night had only just begun.
After the ceremony, the Oscars organizers held an official celebration party at the famous Hollywood Highland Center. At this party, the stars who had won Oscars could watch their names be engraved on those glittering golden statuettes.
