1979 Golden Age

"The martial arts film "Tai Chi" shot by Beijing Film Studio caused a sensation in Hong Kong, earning 17 million at the box office and ranking first in Hong Kong film history!

Not long ago, the main creative staff went to Hong Kong to promote the film and were warmly welcomed by the masses. Wherever they went, there were flowers and applause, and fans were moved to tears... This is a moment of historical drama, a milestone work!

"The male lead of "Tai Chi" is played by Li Lianjie, who has won the national martial arts championship many times, and the female lead is Gong Xue, who is well-known to everyone. The screenwriter is also the screenwriter of "Lush Mountain Love", Chen Qi.

It is reported that Chen Qi's previous work "Fatal Bend" was released last year and won a box office of 4 million. The film deeply exposed the crimes committed by the Japanese invaders in Hong Kong. Unfortunately, the content is too bold and we have no chance to see it.

His other work "Dark Invasion" is already in intensive production at Great Wall Company, but unfortunately it still cannot be released in the mainland.

As a 21-year-old screenwriter, he has not only achieved great success in the mainland, but also made 21 million box office in two films in Hong Kong. He is undoubtedly an outstanding figure of the younger generation and deserves deep reflection from our film practitioners..."

"Tai Chi was first released in Hong Kong. There is no reliable news in the mainland. The reporter asked China Film Corporation, but China Film Corporation refused to be interviewed..."

These are still normal, and the following names are mentioned.

"In mid-February, "The Return of the Swallow" and "Tai Chi" went to West Berlin... "The Return of the Swallow" unfortunately lost, "Tai Chi" shined, and foreigners were conquered by Chinese Kung Fu!"

Then there was another blow, and then the tone of the pen changed: "The person accompanying this time is Fang Yurong of China Film Corporation (the name has been changed, everyone understands). She has good overseas experience and is also a film selector for the Berlin Film Festival.

Fang Yurong strongly promoted "The Return of the Swallow" to participate in the competition, participated in various activities in Berlin, and did it herself, which is admirable! ”

Accompanied by various photos of her in Berlin, with Chairman Hader, members of the jury, and directors and actors from other countries, hugging each other, drinking and chatting happily, smiling...

Yu Jiajia did not mention the issue of earning foreign exchange. The news was released at one time. What else should be released later?

But this is enough.

In 1981, the wind blowing in from outside became stronger and stronger. Many people's concepts quietly changed. They began to pursue everything outside. Tapes of Hong Kong and Taiwan singers also flowed in from various channels, opening up a group of people's pop music enlightenment.

Due to its special location, Hong Kong has received considerable attention. In the eyes of most people, it is a highly developed capitalist society, and toilets are all inlaid with gold.

So words such as "mainland movies", "Hong Kong dominates", and "17 million Hong Kong dollars" easily stir the hearts of countless people, especially when they see that "Tai Chi" was released in Hong Kong but not in the mainland. Why?

"Xiao Huang! Xiao Huang!"

Auntie Wang, wearing a big cotton jacket, ran to the tea stall like an old lady grabbing eggs in later generations, and asked: "Has anyone investigated Xiao Chen's affairs these days? ”

“Yes, I asked you too?”

“I have inquired about it. This situation must have been investigated by the department!”

Auntie Wang, an old woman, was still as wild as a young man. The old lady could hold up half the sky. She said loudly: “Xiao Chen is our man! His work relationship is still here. He made 21 million in Hong Kong. We are also proud of it. I am still looking forward to asking him to come back for a report. We can’t let him be bullied!”

“What do you want to do then?”

“We don’t understand the twists and turns of movies. Let’s find the government leaders. You write a joint letter and our street will submit it. Just praise him to death and guarantee that he will be fine!”

“Okay, we will write it now!”

Huang Zhanying has a deep brotherly love and agreed.

…………

“Oh no! "

At China Film Corporation, Song Linming put down the China Youth Daily in his hand, his face changed drastically.

He was just trying to determine the nature of the matter and grab the business in a hurry. Who would have thought that the newspaper would report it? Once a wave of public opinion was formed and everyone shouted "Tai Chi", China Film Corporation would be passive.

What's more infuriating is that he slapped the table and pointed at Fang Yurong and scolded: "What's the matter with those photos?"

"Those were all reported by Berlin newspapers. It was our first time to participate in the competition. They were very concerned. There were reporters following me every day... How could it be spread to China?"

"Stupid as a pig! Am I asking you this? You should participate in the activities. Why do you hug and cuddle with people? Look at this picture. The foreigner's mouth is stuck to your face!

"They are French. The French are romantic and passionate. They are all like this. I also follow the local customs. Otherwise, how can I deal with Westerners..." Fang Yurong whispered.

Song Linming suddenly felt tired.

What kind of subordinates are these?

Although the kid surnamed Chen is annoying, objectively speaking, he is really capable.    "Forget it, hurry up and follow me to the Ministry of Culture. We must not let them turn over!"

…………

"Chen Qi, you can go now!"

In the special guesthouse, Xiao Mo opened the door.

"Does that mean I'm fine?"

"It's clear after investigation, I'm fine."

"Thanks to the organization for clearing my name... Then I have a question, if I report that someone else has similar suspicion, do you also have to investigate?"

"Of course!"

"Oh, that's good."

Chen Qi nodded and walked downstairs, accompanied by Xiao Mo.

When he got downstairs, he said: "Comrade, can I ask your name?"

"State secret!"

"Haha, I feel that we are about the same age, and I get along well with you. I hope we can meet again in the future, I mean under normal circumstances."

Chen Qi waved to him and ran to Wang Yang, who came to pick him up in person, just like a grandson running to his grandfather.

"Old factory director, please excuse me. I have done a lot of favors, right?"

"Hey! Favors are only for use. My old age will be wasted if I die."

Wang Yang didn't say much about what happened in the past few days, he just said: "Fu Qi came and met Mr. Liao. The China Film Group and the gang were making trouble again. The Ministry of Culture had no choice but to let us go to a meeting, and you happened to come out. Are you Take a rest, or go directly?”

"No need to rest. I'm so suffocated in there, let's go!"

…………

Ministry of Culture, large conference room.

When Chen Qi arrived, many people had already arrived, including leaders of the departments in charge. The atmosphere was serious. Naturally, Song Linming and Fang Yurong were also there and saw him come in.

"You're so lucky to be able to get this out!"

Fang Yurong snorted secretly.

The two sat down, and the table formed a circle, with the leaders at the top and them at the bottom, with people on both sides, just like the ancient yamen temple where they were the ones being tried.

"Old Wang!"

The leader said: "You all have your own version of the story of this matter. Without additional evidence, I can't believe anyone. But you yourself admitted that you did sell the film. Is there no objection to this?"

"No, but please analyze the specific situation in detail. Under the conditions at the time, we can only do this. If you want to be held accountable, it is better to ask Comrade Fang Yurong. Her indifference to "Tai Chi" led to a series of things happening."

"Don't make excuses. I'm only one person, how can I split it into two halves? "The Return of the Swallow" is an entry film, so of course I have more attention there." Fang Yurong retorted.

"Isn't what you said also an excuse? You can say it, but we can't?"
