New Tang Dynasty’s epic historical hero series documentaries “Emperor Qin Shi Huang,” “Military Sage Han Xin,” and “Emperor Wu of Han” have landed on the emerging streaming platform GJW+. This series of documentaries is based on historical documents and cultural relics, unraveling history and revealing the truth. This summer, GJW+ takes you closer to the real Chinese history, allowing you to appreciate the true ancient heroes.
Over two thousand years ago, Emperor Qin Shi Huang unified six states, subdued feudal lords, declared himself emperor, and established a centralized imperial system, putting an end to the feudal system that had lasted for eight centuries since the Zhou Dynasty and laying the foundation for the imperial system that lasted for over two thousand years.
As the first emperor in Chinese history, Qin Shi Huang proclaimed the title of emperor with the grand declaration that it would last for “ten thousand generations, passed down endlessly.” He led campaigns against the Xiongnu in the north, constructed the Great Wall spanning thousands of miles, and established the military prestige of the Han Chinese by ensuring that “northern barbarians dare not come south to pasture their horses.” He implemented national policies of standardizing writing, road widths, and ethical conduct, solidifying the foundation for the great unification of the Chinese dynasties.
However, Qin eventually lost its way, and heroes emerged. In the struggle between Chu and Han, the world turned to Han. Han Xin, the founding general of the Han Dynasty under Emperor Gaozu Liu Bang, not only created astonishing war myths but his strategies and resilience have been praised throughout history, earning him the titles of “unparalleled national hero” and “unrivaled achievements in strategy.”
Han Xin’s tumultuous life story not only left a rich cultural legacy for future generations but also embodied the essence of “endurance” in Chinese culture. Han Xin displayed the strategies of a military commander, the loyalty of a faithful subject, and the indifference of an esteemed scholar. Phrases such as “a meal worth a thousand gold,” “humiliation between the legs,” “marching openly, attacking secretly,” “changing flags easily,” “fighting a battle with one’s back against the river,” “ambush on all sides,” “singing the Chu songs on all sides,” and “invincible in battles” all portray Han Xin’s exploits.
Another heroic figure from the Han Dynasty, Emperor Wu of Han, ushered in a golden age. He not only unified Chinese culture but also shaped a resolute and enterprising national character and spirit. Today’s Chinese descendants, identifying themselves as the Han ethnicity, speaking the Han language, and writing in Han characters, all benefit from the cultural riches left by Emperor Wu of Han for future generations.
However, as time passes, many aspects of true history have become increasingly blurred. Who were Emperor Qin Shi Huang and Emperor Wu of Han? What were the Qin and Han dynasties like? How did the Qin Empire unify the realm and then fall abruptly? And why did Han Xin, the founding general of the Western Han Dynasty, endure humiliations, achieve victories in battles, and face repeated suspicions and suppression from Liu Bang without ever betraying the Han dynasty?
In today’s world, as truths get lost in the thick fog of history, the large historical hero series documentaries “Emperor Qin Shi Huang,” “Military Sage Han Xin,” and “Emperor Wu of Han” available on GJW+ seek to brush away the dust of misconceptions and allow you to explore the true splendor of the Qin and Han dynasties.
