Information about this drama is available in all major media software, especially《Chang An》The inventory of places in the movie that are inconsistent with historical facts has been the most discussed by the audience recently.

The movie - Chang An - is produced by Shanghai Chaiguang Film Co., Ltd. and directed by Xie Junwei and Zou Jing. It will be released in mainland my country from July 8, 2023.The film is set in the prosperous Tang Dynasty and tells the story of Gao Shi, who was in crisis after the Anshi Rebellion, recalling his friendship and past events with Li Bai and Du Fu.The movie - Chang An - is an animated historical film, not a fictional play on history.Many plots in the film are obviously inconsistent with history, such as:

1. Li Bai and Du Fu met for the first time in Luoyang, not Chang'an as depicted in the film

In 744 AD, Li Bai had trouble finding a place in Chang'an because he offended Concubine Yang Guifei and Gao Lishi, so he wrote to Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty, asking to return to the mountain.Emperor Xuanzong of the Tang Dynasty issued an edict to return the gold.Li Bai left Chang'an and headed east, while Du Fu, who had failed many exams, was hesitant in Luoyang City, not knowing where to go.So, Li Bai and Du Fu met for the first time in Luoyang.Mr. Wen Yiduo once commented on the encounter between Li Bai and Du Fu: “Their encounter was the most exciting moment in the history of Chinese literature. Perhaps only the encounter between Laozi and Confucius could compare with it, like the collision of the sun and the moon.”For such an important historical event, the movie should fully respect it.

2. Du Fu lived in Luoyang in his early years, not Chang'an as described in the film

Du Fu was born in Gong County, Henan Province, which belonged to Luoyang during the Tang Dynasty.Du Fu lost his mother in his early years, and when he was only four years old, he was sent to his second aunt's house in Renfengli, Luoyang, where he stayed for more than ten years.It can be said that Luoyang, the eastern capital, witnessed Du Fu's growth.When he was 9 years old, Du Fu began to study calligraphy. He became good at calligraphy and copied the works of calligrapher Yu Shinan. When he was more than 10 years old, Du Fu's poems and essays had already become prominent in Luoyang.Famous people in Luoyang at that time, such as Cui Shang and Wei Qixin, saw Du Fu's works and were amazed by them.Du Fu was often quoted by local seniors and visited the residences of Qi Wang Li Fan, who was proficient in music, and Xuanzong's favorite Cui Di (according to Mr. Yiduo's research, Qi Wang's residence was in Shangshanfang, Dongdu, and Cui Jiutang was in Zunhua, Dongdu,And Du Fu's aunt's home is in Renfengli, Dongdu).Getting the opportunity from them, Du Fu repeatedly heard the singing of the world-famous musician Li Guinian.This kind of encounter also stayed with Du Fu's memory throughout his life. When he met Li Guinian in his later years, he recited the famous poem that has been passed down for thousands of years: "It is the beautiful scenery of Jiangnan, and I meet you again when the flowers are falling".

3. “Three Wonders in One Day” took place in Luoyang Tiangong Temple, not Yangzhou as described in the film

《Famous Paintings of the Tang Dynasty》Records: General Pei Minhou summoned Daozi (Wu Daozi, a great painter of the Tang Dynasty) with gold and silk to paint for his general at Tiangong Temple in the Eastern Capital.Daozi returned the gold and silk, but received nothing.He said to Min: "I have heard for a long time that General Pei performed a sword dance, which is enough to be a favor. Watching his strong energy can help him swing his sword."“Min danced the sword for Daozi because of Mo Min.After the dance, he worked hard for a while to complete it. With the help of God, it is especially outstanding. Daozi also painted it himself. The painting is on the west veranda of the temple.Zhang Xu also wrote a long history, and all the people in the city said: "In one day, I saw three unique things."”

4. It was Li Bai who saved Guo Ziyi, not Gao Shi as described in the film

《New Book of Tang Dynasty》records: “ Lin is defeated and should be executed.At the beginning, when I was traveling to Bingzhou, I saw Guo Ziyi and was surprised.Ziyi tried to break the law, but was saved in vain.At this time, Ziyi asked to be released from the official position to redeem him, and there was an edict to Liu Yelang.”--The tombstone of Li Gong, a Hanlin scholar, records: “ (Li Bai) traveled to Bingzhou, met Guo Fenyang in the army, and rewarded him heavily in order to avoid his criminal responsibility.Later, Fenyang became an official and a noble because of his merits. He asked to redeem him from Hanlin and promised him to avoid execution, so he will be rewarded.”These records show that when Li Bai traveled to Bingzhou in 735 AD, he met Guo Ziyi, who had not yet become famous. At that time, the latter's life was in danger.Li Baihao spent a lot of money and personally lobbied to save Guo Ziyi.
