Chapter 367: Shelling and Being Bombarded
In addition to Lin Niantong, Lev and others also complained about Xu Wangqiu and "Cold" in film reviews, thinking that "Cold" is a masterpiece that deeply reflects reality, and it is a pity to ban such a movie. While they were aggrieved by "Cold", they also questioned the system of the electric inspection office, feeling that the electronic inspection system restricted the development of Hong Kong films.
However, their article is mainly a review of the movie, and only questions the electrical censorship system at the end of the article, and does not discuss the issue in depth, and the people who read their article do not take this issue to heart. After all, the Xiangjiang Electric censorship system has existed for many years, and it is the norm for movies to be banned, and no one thinks there is anything wrong with this.
The next morning, a reporter from Oriental Daily conducted an exclusive interview with Xu Wangqiu. The reporter asked Xu Wangqiu: ""Cold" did not pass the electric inspection and was banned from being screened, what do you think of this matter?"
Xu Wangqiu directly fired at the electrical inspection system: "I expected this incident at the beginning of filming, and I thought that it would definitely be banned by the electrical inspection department, but I have some influence overseas, and selling overseas copyrights should be able to return to the cost, so we also filmed this movie." During the filming of "Cold", I learned about the origin and history of the Xiangjiang electrical inspection system, and found a problem, that is, there is no legal basis for the electrical inspection department to review the film. The Film Censorship Regulations were first enacted by the Governor in Council and in 1973 by the Electrical Censorship Division, a new rule, the Standard Guide to Film Censorship. Neither the original "Film Censorship Regulations" nor the later "Guidelines for Film Censorship Standards" are legislated, administrative, and have no legal effect. I have been to Xiangjiang several times, and people often pat their chests and say to me, "We in Xiangjiang are a society with a legal system, unlike your mainland Balabala." Then I have to ask, since Xiangjiang is a legal society, is the electronic inspection system legal?"
The reporter looked at Xu Wangqiu in amazement, and a burst of ecstasy welled up in his heart.
Big news! Absolutely big news!
After returning to the newspaper office, the reporter rushed out the manuscript as quickly as possible. After reading it, the editor-in-chief also thought it was big news, but felt that the title of the article was not eye-catching enough, so he changed it to "Xu Wangqiu's bombardment of the electric inspection system is illegal".
The next morning, the Oriental Daily published the full text of the interview with Xu Wangqiu. After the article appeared in the newspaper, it immediately caused an uproar in Xiangjiang. Subsequently, well-known newspapers such as "Sing Tao Daily", "South China Morning Post", and "Ming Pao" reprinted Xu Wangqiu's interview one after another, and discussed the legality of the electronic inspection system in their columns.
After the large-scale media coverage, not only the film industry paid close attention, but the entire Xiangjiang society began to discuss this issue. Hong Kong prides itself on being a society governed by the rule of law, and the operation of the organs under the Hong Kong government is illegal, so isn't the so-called legal society a big joke?
The electrical inspection system is illegal and has no legal basis, and many people in the film industry know it. It's just that many people feel that it is useless to poke it out, and they dare not poke it out. If this matter is exposed, it is very likely that the Electricity Inspection Office will report the "Guidelines for Film Censorship Standards" to the Legislative Yuan, and turn the "Guidelines for Film Censorship Standards" into law, which is useless at all. In this way, you will offend the electrical inspection office, and your movie will be stuck again and again in the future, and your movie road will come to an end.
Xiangjiang filmmakers didn't dare to say anything about the electrical inspection system, but Xu Wangqiu stood up and criticized the electrical inspection system, and they supported it from the bottom of their hearts.
"Xu Wangqiu is so bold, only he dares to do such a thing as bombarding the electric inspection system!"
"He is different from us, he is not from Xiangjiang, and he is not mixed with the Xiangjiang film industry, so he is not afraid of offending the Electricity Inspection Department. ”
"Now that the problem of the electrical inspection system has been brought out, I don't know how the administrative bureau and the electrical inspection department will respond, and what changes will be made? It would be nice if we could implement a grading system like European and American countries. ”
What Xu Wangqiu didn't expect was that after he bombarded the illegality of the electric inspection system, neither the electrical inspection office nor the Hong Kong British government spoke out, but the writer and screenwriter Lin Kuang jumped out and wrote an article called "The Crow Thinks the Pig is Black" to criticize Xu Wangqiu.
Lin Kuang committed an accident in the mainland in the 50s, and after fleeing to Xiangjiang, he hated the mainland, and often wrote about the black mainland with yin and yang. Originally, Xu Wangqiu scolded the Electrical Inspection Office for being his business, and it was even good for him, because Lin Kuang was also a movie screenwriter. From the standpoint of a filmmaker, he should support Xu Wangqiu, after all, the electrical censorship system has great restrictions on film creation. However, Lin Kuang is a person with a very heavy ideology, and in his opinion, Xu Wangqiu is a mainlander, and it is unforgivable for a mainlander to accuse Xiangjiang of having problems with the legal system, and it is an insult to the entire Xiangjiang society.
So, Lin Kuang wrote "The Crow Thinks the Pig Black" to satirize Xu Wangqiu.
It is a common saying that crows dislike pigs are black, which is a metaphor for disgusting others with the same ugliness and shortcomings as themselves. Because the crow itself is black, but it is particularly ridiculous to dislike the pig being black.
Lin Kuang's point of view is very clear: Even if there are bad things in Xiangjiang, it will not be your turn for Xu Wangqiu to make irresponsible remarks; what qualifications do you have to accuse us of the legal system in Xiangjiang, a kid from the mainland who has no legal system?
Lin Kuang has a lot of fans in Xiangjiang, and Xiangjiang hates Xu Wangqiu, and there are many people who hate the mainland. After Lin Kuang's article was published, these people felt that Lin Kuang's words had reached their hearts, and they all applauded.
"It's worthy of Lin Kuang, that's a good point. Even if there is anything bad about Xiangjiang, even if there is a problem with the electrical inspection system, it is also our business in Xiangjiang. ”
"That's right, it's also in the legal society of Xiangjiang that you can say this! You also have a censorship system in the mainland, and you have the ability to say it in the mainland! Do you dare to say it? If you say it, you will be shot directly!"
"What qualifications do you have to make irresponsible remarks about our Xiangjiang affairs, go back to the mainland!"
Xu Wangqiu didn't expect Lin Kuang to jump out and scold himself, he didn't have anything to do with Lin Kuang, he felt inexplicable, and thought to himself, why did I recruit you? . But when he thought about it, he understood what was going on. This is somewhat similar to the public knowledge on the Internet in later generations, if you dare to say that the United States is not good, it is like stepping on their tails, and they will immediately launch a fierce attack on you.
Of course, Lin Kuang is still much stronger than Gongzhi, at least Lin Kuang is a native of Xiangjiang, and Gongzhi is only a spiritual American. In fact, it is not the first time that Lin Kuang has bombarded others, he scolded Liang Yusheng in the 60s.
At that time, Liang Yusheng published an article "Quan Yong and Liang Yusheng's Theory" in "Haiguang Literature and Art", and made a detailed comment and comparison of Jin Liang and the two. After Lin Kuang found out, he sarcastically said mercilessly: "The purpose is to pull Quan Yong to add glory to himself, if the behavior is like this, whether it is high or low, there is a public opinion." As long as you see whether Liang's martial arts are compared with Jin's, you can see whether this person's martial arts skills are deep and tried. Quan Yong and Liang Yusheng can't be together, absolutely not. ”
Why did Lin Kuang jump out and step on Liang Yusheng? Because Liang Yusheng is a Zuo faction and is pro-mainland.
Xu Wangqiu didn't like Lin Kuang in the first place, he hated Lin Kuang not because Lin Kuang's son slept with the goddess Zhou Huimin, but because this person liked black China too much, as long as he could hack this country, no matter what he supported.
If Quan Yong and Huang Felt jumped out, Xu Wangqiu might have endured it, but Lin Kuang jumped out and really couldn't bear it. He couldn't help sneering, you found the door yourself, your face was swollen, don't blame me!
Xu Wangqiu quickly wrote an article published in Ta Kung Pao in response to Lin Kuang.
The article wrote mercilessly: "After reading Lin Kuang's "The Crow Thinks the Pig is Black", I was very shocked. Lin Kuang believes that I, a mainlander, am not qualified to criticize the legal system in Hong Kong. According to this logic, you Lin Kuang, a fugitive and a person who has committed a criminal case and absconded to Xiangjiang, how can you be qualified to talk to me about the legal system?
Since absconding from Hong Kong in 1957, Mr. Lin Kuang has devoted himself to creating a painting skin, whitewashing himself, and portraying himself as a political model, saying that he was suppressed and persecuted before defecting to the free world. But is it really as Lin Kuang said? I'm going to peel off Mr. Lin Kuang's carefully packaged painting skin today.
Lin Kuang said that he stole a few pieces of wood in Inner Mongolia and was persecuted before he absconded to Xiangjiang. Lin Kuang did not say that the pieces of wood he stole were the wood on the bridge, because he stole a few pieces of wood, which caused the tractor passing by that day to fall into the river and the tractor driver died. I believe that in any place, Lin Kuang will be sentenced to prison for what he has done, and he will be imprisoned for the crime of endangering public safety. Therefore, Lin Kuang is not a political fan, but a criminal criminal, and there is no persecution at all.
Lin Kuang knew that his crime was serious, and with the help of someone with a heart, he absconded to Xiangjiang. According to the logic of normal people, after committing a crime and absconding, even if you don't reflect on your mistakes and don't think about the driver who was killed by yourself, you should at least keep a low profile. But Lin Kuang did not do this, he presented himself as a freedom fighter, said that he was persecuted, and frantically attacked and smeared the mainland in his articles. 5. In the 60s, there was a serious confrontation between the left and right of Xiangjiang, and the right was the mainstream of Xiangjiang. Lin Kuang gradually became popular by relying on political speculation and became a so-called genius. Son, I saw it, it was my grandson's son, but I really didn't see it.
The ancients said that the text is like the person, and there is a reason for this. When we look at Lin Kuang, we will find that the Wesley he portrayed is a person with particularly serious double standards. As long as Wesley is interested, he can casually spy on other people's secrets, such as eavesdropping, stalking, and even infiltrating their homes. But on the other hand, when someone else inflicted a tenth of these tactics on Wesley, Wesley would make a righteous accusation, or even lash out.
Why did Lin Kuang write such a character? Because Wesley is a portrayal of Lin Kuang himself. Lin Kuang infringed on the interests of others and killed the tractor driver, and he felt that he had no problem at all; but when the government wanted to arrest him and lock him up, he began to shout how can you infringe on my interests, and from then on he hated the government and smeared him in the book.
For such a person, I will only say a word, I have never seen such a brazen person!"
After Xu Wangqiu's article was published, public opinion was in an uproar, and the masses in Xiangjiang discussed it one after another.
"I didn't expect Lin Kuang to run to Xiangjiang because he killed someone in the mainland!"
"What Xu Wangqiu said may not be true, maybe he made it up? Let's see how Lin Kuang responds. ”
"When I was a kid, I felt like Wesley was a guy with a lot of double standards. Anything that happened to someone else was a big mistake, and it was a matter of course for Wesley. ”
"Xu Wangqiu's mouth is really poisonous! He simply scolded Lin Kuang as a dog! Lin Kuang is not easy to mess with, and he will definitely scold him back. Even if Lin Kuang can't scold, his good friends are Quan Yong, Huang Yu and Cai Yan, and his sister is Yishu, none of them are easy to mess with, I think Xu Wangqiu will suffer a big loss this time. ”
When he was a student at school, when he was holding a seminar, he debated with several experts and scolded those experts so much that he was admitted to the hospital. Later, he fought with the critics, and in the face of the siege of the critics, he stood tall. Writing a book, Xu Wangqiu may not be able to write about Lin Kuang and them, but in a war of words, Lin Kuang and they may not be able to beat Xu Wangqiu!"
