After breakfast, Xu Wangqiu walked into Peking University and went to the girls' building to find Su Bai. The dormitory manager shouted on the radio, and in less than two minutes, Su Bai came downstairs with a kick. Xu Wangqiu stared at Su Bai and chuckled: "Classmate Su Bai, should we settle last night's account?" Su Bai said with a straight face: "It's broad daylight, don't have any bad ideas!" Xu Wangqiu blinked: "I know, I'll fight again at night!" Su Bai glared at him: "Talking nonsense all day long, let's go quickly." ”

It's August now, and it's the hottest time of the year, Xu Wangqiu and Su Bai don't want to run around under the scorching sun, so they go to the Peking University library to read books together. Of course, in addition to being afraid of heat, the most important thing is that I really want to study. College students in this era have a very strong hunger for knowledge and study very hard, and the same is true for Su Bai. Her English is not very good, in order to improve her English, she always has an English card in her pocket, no matter eating, waiting for the bus, as long as she has free time, she will take out the English card to read.

Usually the library opens at 8 o'clock, and the entrance is crowded at 6 o'clock. However, since it is summer vacation, most of the students have left the school, so they don't have to worry about finding a place.

The library is a place to read, Xu Wangqiu and Su Bai naturally don't talk to me and me, they are both immersed in hard reading. When it was almost 11 o'clock, Xie Fei came to find him. He brought good news, Ye Zhiming has already watched "Hoe Rape" and thinks that the movie is very good in all aspects, and he doesn't see any political problems. Ye Zhiming also told Xie Fei that he would invite the comrades of the Central Investigation Department to watch "Hoe Rape" on weekends and ask them to help check it. After they make a decision, they will ask Director Huo Zhengang to see it.

Hearing this, Xu Wangqiu sighed softly. Now the biggest problem is in the Central Dispatch Department, as long as the Central Dispatch Department nods, then getting the approval order is not a problem. There is a teacher Zhang Ke in the Central Adjustment Department, and the school is looking for a relationship, so it shouldn't be a big problem. In other words, it should not be a problem for "Hoe Rape" to be released nationwide if it gets the approval order.

Su Bai is a child of the film studio and is familiar with the film system, but he doesn't know much about film censorship. At lunchtime, she threw out her question: "Why is the state so tight on film censorship?"

Xu Wangqiu smiled bitterly: "Because movies are the only art that can enter Zhongnanhai, the central leaders have to watch movies." It is precisely because the movie can enter Zhongnanhai that it is troublesome, and you can't send the movie with problems to Zhongnanhai. Many leaders also attach great importance to the issue of movies, for example, when the 52 version of "Southern Expedition and Northern War" was in preparation, General Su Yu directly summoned the director to Beiping and personally explained to them the military and political situation and combat situation on the battlefield in East China. After that, Marshal Lin Biao revised the lines in the movie, and Marshal Chen Yi changed several dialogues in the script. There is more than one such movie, and many movies have been asked by leaders. If the leader thinks that the movie needs to be changed, it can only be changed. If the leader thinks there is something wrong with the movie, then the movie may be shot!"

Su Bai somewhat understood: "I've heard a lot of leaders ask about movies, and I always thought it was a good thing, which shows that leaders care about movies, but I didn't expect leaders to care about it!"

Xu Wangqiu smiled and nodded, many people think that movies are just entertainment products, and they don't realize the huge impact of movies at all; many people know how the movement ends, but most people don't know that the end of the movement is actually related to the movie.

During the movement, Dongying Studio received an order from the Gang of Four to make a movie called "The Song of Mango", the name of which was taken from the allusion of Taizu sending mangoes, mainly for approval/capital/faction. Changying Studio handed over this task to the young director Chang Yan, and Chang Yan made a movie. After the filming of "Mango Song", the film was only screened for half a month after it was submitted for review, and the movement ended, and the film was naturally banned. Director Chang Yan didn't think much about it and continued to make his own movies. Unexpectedly, after more than a year, Lu Dingyi, the minister of the Central Committee/Xuan/Minister, inspected the East Film Studio and named him to watch this film.

At this time, Chang Yan knew that after "The Song of Mango" was submitted for review, it had been screened once in Zhongnanhai, and the old generals took the opportunity of watching this movie to agree on how to catch the Gang of Four in the toilet. At that time, Lu Dingyi was locked up in Qinshan Prison and had no chance to witness the film. Now that the Gang of Four has been defeated, he wants to see what this movie looks like that has done a great job in bringing down the Gang of Four. After Lu Ding watched it, "The Song of Mango" was sealed forever, and this film must be approved by the Propaganda Department of the Provincial Party Committee.

Compared with many other industries, film is not large, but it contains amazing energy. Behind the global expansion of the Hollywood film industry, the U.S. government is actively driving it. Successive U.S. administrations have attached great importance to cultural exports, thus ensuring that the U.S. foreign cultural communication strategy supports U.S. films to occupy the world market in terms of political system and legal policy.

Because of this, China is particularly strict about films. Not only is the examination strict, but also the private sector and foreign capital are prohibited from meddling. By the beginning of the 90s, China's market economy was in full swing, and other fields were gradually liberalized to private ownership and mixed ownership, but no one dared to touch the film sector. It was not until the 15th National Congress of the Communist Party of China that the concept of cultural industry was proposed. It was not until 2002 that the 16th National Congress of the Communist Party of China (CPC) included the vigorous development of the cultural industry in the report, and the reform of Chinese films really began.

A week later, Xu Wangqiu received a notice from the Film Bureau, asking him and Xie Fei to accompany Director Huo Zhengang to watch the film and listen to the censorship. During the review of the film, Huo Zhengang asked Xu Wangqiu and them questions from time to time, and also revealed Hu Qingming's dissatisfaction with "Hoe Rape". Xu Wangqiu and Xie Fei understood that Huo Zhengang was under pressure from Hu Qingming, and their heartstrings couldn't help but tense, and they didn't know what Huo Zhengang would do. However, Huo Zhengang quickly said that the Central Coordination Department has put forward three amendments to the film, and he has already responded to Minister Hu and has obtained a verbal promise from the Minister that the film can be passed, but it must be revised in accordance with the opinions of the Central Coordination Department before a formal approval order can be issued. Xu Wangqiu and Xie Fei finally had a smile, the death penalty for "Hoe Rape" has been canceled, and this film is really alive.

After watching the movie, Xu Wangqiu and Xie Fei were about to leave. Huo Zhengang stopped them, took out the documents of the Central Investigation Department, and handed them to Xie Fei: "This is the opinion put forward by the comrades of the Central Investigation Department after watching the film, you can take a closer look." This opinion is very important, and you must revise it according to the opinion of the Central Investigation Department. ”

Xu Wangqiu stretched out his head and stared at the document in Xie Fei's hand carefully, only to see that the document began to read: "On the whole, "Hoe Rape" shows the heroic struggle of our party's underground workers against the enemy, and shows their unyielding revolutionary spirit of unyielding and unafraid of sacrifice. As a feature film, it can be played ......"

Seeing this passage, Xu Wangqiu let out a heavy sigh, the rest of the whole document is not important, the most important thing is the three words "can be played", with these three words, the death penalty hat of "hoe rape" was taken off. As for the revisions proposed by the Central Adjustment Department, it is easy to change, and only a few shots need to be reshot.

After Xie Fei browsed the document, he silently wrote down the contents, but for the sake of insurance, he felt that it was necessary to copy it down, so he said: "Director, you see it's already twelve o'clock now, and we can't remember it after reading it once, please allow us to take it back and make a record, and we'll send it back to you in the afternoon, okay?"

Huo Zhengang looked at his watch and said, "Okay, you can take it and copy it, but you have to send it back as soon as possible!"

Xie Fei was overjoyed when he heard this, took the documents, and dragged Xu Wangqiu out.

Coming out of the Film Bureau, Xie Fei raised the document in his hand and said excitedly: "We must copy this document, this is our talisman, with this document "Hoe Rape" will be safe!"

Xu Wangqiu and Xie Fei came to Nortel's family area together, went to Xie Fei's house to copy the documents, and then returned the documents to the Film Bureau. Immediately afterwards, Xu Wangqiu and Xie Fei took Zeng Nianping and the leading actor of the movie to the magic capital to make up the shooting in accordance with the revisions proposed by the Central Adjustment Department.

Just when Xu Wangqiu and the others had just made the copy according to the opinions of the Central Adjustment Department, something unexpected happened. When Xu Wangqiu and them were filming again, Hu Qingming called Xu Shangchu to Beiping, saying that he wanted to discuss the issue of "Hoe Rape". I thought that this matter was stable, but I didn't expect Xu Shangchu to tell Xu Wangqiu on the phone that "Hoe Rape" was still rejected by Hu Qingming.

Xu Shangchu's tone sounded particularly lost: "I just arrived in Beiping yesterday, Hu Qingming called me over, and Huo Zhengang and a few people from the Film Bureau were also there. Hu Qingming told me that after repeated thinking, he thought that "Hoe Rape" still could not be released, because the whole story was born from the Tek Hoe Rape, and he was worried that there would be side effects after the release, and the audience would think that our party was engaged in assassination, which would have a bad impact. ”

Xu Wangqiu was very annoyed when he heard this: "In the movie, Chen Xinjie specifically said that we do not advocate assassination and kidnapping, but only for traitors. We have already explained this problem in the movie, how can the audience misunderstand it? Besides, everyone thinks that there is no problem, the movie can be played, why didn't Hu Qingming let it go. ”

Xu Shangchu sighed when he heard this and said: "I have read the opinions of the Central Adjustment Department, and they put forward three opinions, but they did not say that the movie can be played. You should have listened to what people said, and the person who may have conveyed it will be mistaken when conveying. The center department only said what are the problems with the movie, but did not say that the movie can pass. ”

Xu Wangqiu was stunned for a moment, realized that the situation was wrong, and shouted: "No! No! I didn't listen to what people conveyed! I read the document of the Central Dispatch Department, and the first paragraph of the document reads; On the whole, "Hoe Rape" shows the heroic struggle of our party's underground workers against the enemy and their revolutionary spirit of being steadfast and unyielding and not afraid of sacrifice. As a feature film, it can be acted. Next, there are three revisions proposed by the Central Investigation Department. The center department definitely said it, they said that the movie can be played. ”

Xu Shangchu said in surprise: "No, I also read the opinions of the Central Dispatch Department." There is no such passage that you are above, and the beginning is that the film has the following shortcomings, one, two, three. ”

Xu Wangqiu immediately understood what was going on, and he was amazed in his heart, Hu Qingming was so bold! He even dared to tamper with the documents of the central ministries and commissions! What a bold man! He immediately said: "Director Xu, the opinions of the Central Adjustment Department were handed over to us after Huo Zhengang finished examining them. Teacher Xie Fei and I not only saw the document, but also copied it. We can't be mistaken, the center department said that the movie can be played, which is absolutely true. The file you see has most likely been modified. ”

Xu Shangchu groaned: "What you see should be the original, what I see is indeed a copy, and there is indeed a possibility of being modified." He immediately said: "Have you made a copy?" If you do, you will immediately bring the copy to Beiping! Let's discuss how to deal with this matter!"
