Competition and Achievement: A Narrative Analysis of the Role of Zamuhe in Genghis Khan's Films

Abstract

Temujin is the undoubted protagonist in Genghis Khan's film, and although the supporting role of Zamuhe is a secondary role, from the perspective of Mongolian culture and narrative, Temujin and Zamuhe are two wings of a single body, and Zamuhe has always been a strong competitor to Temujin, a replica or a reflection of the story of Temujin, and an intimate part of his life, which is an important part of the story of Temujin. Therefore, Zamuhe in the story of Genghis Khan can be viewed in the light of the second protagonist.
