On May 5, 2019 (April 1, 2019 in the lunar calendar), Wei Shaolan, a victim of the comfort women system, died and filmed the documentary "Thirty-two". At noon on May 5, 2019, Wei Shaolan, a victim of the Japanese "comfort women" system, passed away at the age of 99. Red Star News learned from Wei Shaolan's family that Wei Shaolan fell down in his room a few days ago and was taken to a hospital in Guilin. The examination result was a comminuted intertrochanteric fracture of his right femur. His condition was not very stable during hospitalization, and he died at 13: 20 today. Old Man Wei Shaolan.

In the winter of 1944, 24-year-old Wei Shaolan was captured by Japanese soldiers and suffered inhuman torture in the comfort station for three months. During this period, she became pregnant. After escaping from the comfort station, she gave birth to a child named Luo Shanxue. Because of the prejudice of outsiders, Luo Shanxue was unmarried all his life and lived with his mother. Today, history learned about the old man in Shaolan. Usually, the old man gets up at 6 o'clock every day, then sweeps the floor and sometimes washes his own clothes. At that time, another documentary "Twenty-two" directed by Guo Ke, which tells the story of comfort women, was released in China. Only two weeks after its release, the box office of "Twenty-two" reached 170 million yuan, setting the highest box office record for documentaries shown in domestic cinemas, and Wei Shaolan was one of the protagonists. One of the reasons that prompted Director Guo Ke to shoot the documentary "Twenty-two" is that he was moved by the optimistic and determined quality of the elderly when he filmed the documentary short film "Thirty-two" in 2014. "Thirty-two" tells the story of Wei Shaolan, a victim of "comfort women" of the Japanese invaders, and her Sino-Japanese mixed-race son Luo Shanxue. Wei Shaolan said in the film: "It rains in the sky and the road is slippery. I fall and climb by myself, I feel worried by myself, and I wipe my tears by myself. The world is so good that you have to save this life to watch if you eat wild things." News raw data sources → https://www.abtool.cn/today_detail/12dl.html 17WorldNews[2025.09.17-02:14] 访问:73
