Chapter 390: The Spring Breeze of Freedom
On July 14, 1987, Chiang issued an order announcing the lifting of martial law in Taiwan.
In addition to Taiwanese, the happiest people in Taiwan are the practitioners in the Hong Kong film and television industry.
Because this lifting of martial law not only lifted the scope of military control, administrative and judicial aspects, but also lifted the three prohibitions and two prohibitions.
It is generally believed that the "newspaper ban" includes three parts: "limited certificates", "limited sheets", and "limited printing", that is, the three prohibitions, in addition to the above "three prohibitions" that are generally believed, there are two other kinds of restrictions, "price limits" and "paper restrictions", that is, two prohibitions, three bans, and two prohibitions add up to a total of five prohibitions.
Whether it is three prohibitions, or two prohibitions, or a combination of five prohibitions, this prohibition is the newspaper or the publishing industry, from the five prohibitions can be seen from the literal meaning, this restricts the qualification of publications, that is, restricts the issuance of permits, limits the number of registrations.
If you don't register, you can't run a newspaper if you want to, so you can control the number of publications and the content of your publications.
Then the registration was controlled, not to mention, but also limited the length of the newspaper, in order to save the use of paper printing to limit the length of the page, at first only allowed one, then increased to two, and finally to three.
However, printing and distribution are also restricted, and the newsprint publisher must distribute at the place where the distribution office is approved and registered, and may not distribute publications at the place where the printing office is located.
The price limit is to limit the price of newspapers, and how much to sell must be agreed by the relevant departments.
Although these three prohibitions and two prohibitions are only forbidden newspapers and publications, newspaper publications also belong to the media and belong to the cultural category.
On this day, the three bans and two bans were lifted, and the management of publications was also handed over to the police and the "Information Bureau", which means that martial law on film and television has also been lifted, and the review has also been attributed to the Information Bureau.
Taiwanese culture and public opinion have finally been unblocked, and the Hong Kong film and television industry, which is most affected, is naturally the happiest.
Many people may think that Taiwan has always been very democratic and free, not free of speech, and not how to make trouble as much as it wants? How can there still be martial law?
That is because these people do not know the origin of Taiwan's so-called democracy and freedom, which began with the martial law contact on this day.
Therefore, the so-called democracy and freedom in Taiwan only have a history of more than 20 years.
Prior to that, Taiwan was under martial law for thirty-eight years.
Lin Qingxia chatted with Qiao Feng and talked about what happened when she was a child, of course, although life was not very good, it was mostly some happy memories, but there were also panic memories.
In Lin Qingxia's words, when she was a child, she was an era when everyone was in danger.
At that time, the most unfortunate people were cultural people, or some people with cultural and related relationships, who were probably reported and then arrested and locked up because they had a copy of Tom's adventures at home, because the author was Mark Twain, who was related to Marx, and their surnames were "horses".
There are also Matsu fishermen who don't know a single word, just because they can see the shadow of the mainland opposite when they see the weather is clear when they are fishing, and they say, "Today's climate is very good, the wind direction and tide are also good, and it is very close to the mainland." He was sued by the people in the same boat, and then he was arrested.
At that time, Taiwan's per capita monthly income was 200 yuan, but the reward for reporting a person was often as high as 200,000 yuan, so there were quite a few people who were directly framed, confused and confused, so they were framed by the people around them, and they were all small people.
Lin Qingxia also said that if a boy falls in love with a girl, he will go to court, if the courtship fails, he can go to a small report, accusing her of being a "bandit spy", she will suffer immediately, so many beautiful girls will be threatened, Lin Qingxia is very happy when she talks about this, because she was thin and thin when she was a child, especially before the second grade of junior high school, she has always been a person with no sense of existence, and her classmates don't think she is beautiful, so she avoided encountering threats to court.
In addition to these, like songs, all film and television are strictly censored, Lin Qingxia's good friend Teresa Teng has several songs that have been reviewed, Lin Qingxia also laughed and said that her popularity, or that their group of stars who became popular by acting in Qiong ballad movies have to thank this strict censorship, because if the censorship is not too strict, everyone has to shoot, and the audience has to only watch Qiong ballad movies that are not so explicit, and they may not have the opportunity to act in the movie.
Taiwan, which has been under martial law for 38 years, said goodbye to the past on this day, and the whole of Taiwan was boiling, and of course Hong Kong was also boiling.
Qiao Feng was also very happy to hear the news, many of his movies can finally be sold in Taiwan, although he can't look down on the box office in Taiwan, but no matter how small the mosquito legs are, it's not meat, and if you can't look at it, you can't look at it, but you can't dislike it, and you can't get along with money.
Not only can the movie be sold, but Taiwanese actors will be used in the future to return to the mainland to film, like Lin Qingxia and Wang Xuxian, they don't have to worry too much, worrying about how it will affect them.
Well, it's really good to lift martial law.
The day after martial law in Taiwan was officially lifted, the pure love movie Autumn Fairy Tale starring Zhong Chuhong and Zhou Yunfa was released in Hong Kong.
I don't know if it's Zhong Chuhong, Zhou Runfa and the two are too famous, there are too many fans, or the good news that Taiwan has lifted martial law in addition to making the Hong Kong film and television industry excited, by the way, it also makes Hong Kong citizens excited, anyway, after the autumn fairy tale was released, it won more than 4 million box office on the first day, and this box office really shocked the eyeballs.
You know, this is the most competitive summer file, although there are no particularly good movies during this time, but there are not too many fairy tales scheduled in this autumn, and it is also a romance film.
On the Golden Harvest side, there are Oriental Condors starring Hong Jinbao, Yuan Biao, Yuan Hua, Gao Lihong and others to be released, and because it is the first time that a film has been released after the merger, the Oriental Condor is even higher, and there are also two independent companies' films that also share part of the film schedule.
But even so, it was really unexpectedly that no one could cut a box office of more than 4 million on the first day when the film scheduling rate was not high enough.
