Rebirth of the Great Entertainment Empire

…

After the end of the Anti-Japanese War.

A large number of filmmakers went from Shanghai to Xiangjiang to settle down one after another, and re-developed the film industry in Xiangjiang. Among the filmmakers who went south, left-wing filmmakers accounted for a large proportion.

With the historical changes, left-wing film companies such as Great Wall Film Production Co., Ltd., Phoenix Film Company, and Xinlian Film Company emerged one by one.

In 1979, Great Wall and Phoenix formed the Zhongyuan Film Production Company for the first time.

In 1982, Changfengxin merged with Zhongyuan, and incorporated Clear Water Bay Studios and Southern Pictures into the system, officially reorganizing as Yindu Organization Co., Ltd.

today.

It was the day when the ribbon was cut and listed in Yindu.

On this very important day for left-wing filmmakers, many veteran stars from Great Wall, Phoenix, and Xinlian came to congratulate, officials from the Hong Kong branch of Xinhua News Agency, officials from Hong Kong Merchants, Wen Wei Po, Ta Kung Pao and other leftists ~The editor-in-chief of the Pai newspaper, as well as Jin Yong and other celebrities were also invited.

And Xu Cun fulfilled his promise to Liao Yiyuan at the first Golden Image Awards Ceremony—becoming one of the ribbon-cutting guests listed in Yindu.

As the ribbon-cutting guest of a left-wing film company, isn't Xu Cun afraid of causing dissatisfaction with the Taiwan authorities?

In the late 1950s, Yonghua and Xinhua ceased to exist, and rightist film companies were gradually replaced by MP \u0026 GI and Shaw Brothers. At that time, MP \u0026 GI and Shaw Brothers secretly cooperated with Changfengxin. For example: Shaw Brothers buys ten films produced by Great Wall at a price of 120,000 Hong Kong dollars each, and signs an agency distribution agreement with Great Wall. MP \u0026 GI also purchased films produced by Phoenix.

Therefore, since then, Xiangjiang has had an unwritten rule—as long as it does not publicly support leftist film companies, the Taiwan authorities will generally turn a blind eye and close one eye.

Moreover, not only Xu Cun was among the guests who cut the ribbon, but Shao Yifu, Zou Wenhuai, Lei Juekun, Zhang Youxin, and Zhong Yijie were also among them.

Therefore, Xu Cun did not need to worry about offending the Taiwan authorities because he was the ribbon-cutting guest of Yindu.

After the lively ceremony, Shao Yifu, Zou Wenhuai, Lei Juekun, Zhang Youxin, Zhong Yijie took leave of Liao Yiyuan one by one.

Originally, Xu Cun was also planning to leave with Shao Yifu and others, but Liao Yiyuan invited Xu Cun to a private room, and there was already a white-haired old man sitting in the private room.

As soon as Xu Cun and Liao Yiyuan entered the private room, the old man introduced himself: Hi Xiaoyou Xu, I am Ji Pengfei, the incoming director of the Hong Kong and Macau Affairs Office.

Ji Pengfei used to be the vice chairman and secretary-general of the Standing Committee of the National People's Congress, vice premier, state councilor, minister of foreign affairs, and other important positions. At this time, China G is definitely a figure who can't be more awesome.

Without Ji Pengfei's seniority, and with Ji Pengfei's age of at least seventy, Xu Cun can't take it seriously——Xu Cun took two steps, shook hands with Ji Pengfei, and said politely, Hello sir!

After the host and guest were seated, Xu Cun cut to the chase and said, I don't know why the old man wants me?

Ji Pengfei said: The times are developing, the society is progressing, and the form of the media is also changing. Nowadays, the traditional paper media has limitations. A large part of modern people receive new news from TV instead of Received new news from newspapers as in the past. Now, at the critical moment when the country takes back Xiangjiang, some TVB reports are biased, causing many Xiangjiang people to misunderstand our party, so we would like to ask Xiaoyou’s Phoenix TV Bing The impartiality of the direct media to report on the state’s recovery of Xiangjiang.”

Xu Cun picked up the teapot in front of him and poured three cups of tea, handed two of them to Ji Pengfei and Liao Yiyuan respectively, and said, No matter what time it is, I admit that I am a middle-G person, and my heart goes to the mainland!

As soon as Xu Cun opened his mouth, Ji Pengfei, who was old in accidents, knew that Xu Cun should be winable.

but--

Xu Cun's next words let Ji Pengfei know that Xu Cun will never become a leftist.

After a pause, Xu Cun then continued: However, in the final analysis, I am a businessman, and the nature of a businessman is to seek profit. To put it bluntly, I have no awareness of destroying my family for the country, and I will never be able to do so. Self-sacrifice for others. Therefore, I will never take the risk of offending Taiwan. Because that will make me lose a large market.

Ji Pengfei, who has been engaged in diplomatic work all his life, naturally knows how to deal with a person like Xu Cun who only cares about benefits but not ideals. Ji Pengfei laughed and said: Phoenix TV only needs to report some positive news from the mainland and promote the positive image of our party. It doesn't need to be too obvious, just subtly. Of course, the emperor is not short of hungry soldiers. Of course we I won’t let my efforts be in vain, little friend. Well... we can help you contact the mainland TV stations and sell Phoenix TV’s TV series to the mainland.”

What Ji Pengfei asked for was not difficult, nor was the reward. In addition, Xu Cun has long wanted to reform Phoenix News. The most important thing is that, as a person from China, Xu Cun is absolutely willing to do his bit for his motherland without affecting himself.

Therefore, Xu Cun said simply: Well, I will send a film crew to Beij to report live on Beij, and then make first-hand news... Before I leave, I will personally explain to them As for Beij, I would like to ask you, Mr. Ji, to find a few smart people to act as guides for them, and guide them in what should be filmed and what should not be filmed. However, I declare in advance that our Phoenix TV’s point of view is absolutely Neutral, and no fake news that praises the praises.

If someone from the North J side guides the reporters of Phoenix TV to shoot, can they still shoot news that is unfavorable to the mainland?

The old man Jing Ji Pengfei instantly understood what Xu Cun meant.

As for the high-sounding words that Xu Cun said later, it is easy to explain-to put it bluntly, Xu Cun wants to be a whore and also wants to set up an archway!

...

The speed at which the rumor spread was terrific - within a single day, photos of the Iron Lady wrestling in front of Tiananmen Square appeared in major newspapers.

The negative impact of this photo is not only the sharp drop in stocks and the collapse of the real estate market, but also a huge negative impact-the depreciation of the Hong Kong dollar.

Before the news of the Iron Lady wrestling in front of Tiananmen Square came out, the ratio of the Hong Kong dollar to the U.S. dollar was probably stable at around 1:7.4.

When the news of the Iron Lady wrestling in front of Tiananmen Square came out, the ratio of the Hong Kong dollar to the U.S. dollar plummeted—in just over two months, the ratio of the Hong Kong dollar to the U.S. dollar fell to 1:8.6, and there is still a downward trend.

but--

Xu Cun can no longer wait for the Hong Kong dollar to fall again, because he needs the Hong Kong dollar to make a big bargain at this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Therefore, Xu Cun converted the 300 million U.S. dollars he had deposited in the Swiss bank into nearly 2.6 billion Hong Kong dollars and deposited them in HSBC.
