After receiving Xu Shangchu's call, Xu Wangqiu and Xie Fei went directly to the train station to buy a train ticket back to Beiping. After the train arrived in Beiping, they did not rest and went straight to the guest house of the Cultural Affairs Bureau.

Xu Wangqiu and Xie Fei knocked on Xu Shangchu's door, walked into the room, and found that Zhang Ke was also there. Zhang Ke and Xu Shangchu are old friends, and the school sent him to be in charge of the work of "Hoe Rape", so he should be discussing with Xu Shangchu the issue of "Hoe Rape" not being reviewed. After Xu Wangqiu and Xie Fei greeted Zhang Ke, they gave a brief explanation of the remake of "Hoe Rape".

After listening to Xu Wangqiu's introduction, Xu Shangchu began to talk about Hu Qingming's conversation with him. He was very calm when he spoke, and he was not angry because of Hu Qingming's words and deeds; Xu Wangqiu was also very calm when they listened, and they could not see the slightest hint of nervousness. Everyone understands that "Hoe Rape" was nodded by the Central Tone Department, and the Film Bureau should let the film pass. Now Hu Qingming and they tampered with the documents of the Central Adjustment Department, and the fault lies with them, this lawsuit is to the supreme chief, and Xu Wangqiu and they will not lose.

After telling the story as it was, Xu Shangchu said slowly: "As a state organ, the Film Bureau can disagree with the documents issued by the central ministries and commissions, and they can not convey them, but they cannot tamper with them, otherwise it will be a serious violation of the law." Now the pigtails of the film bureau let us catch it. If this incident comes out, the film bureau will be out of luck. Huo Zhengang, the director, is at the end. We should think about whether we should poke this out, and if so, how we should poke it. ”

As an old party member, Zhang Ke was very disgusted with the words and deeds of Hu Qingming and others, and felt that they did not take the country into account at all, and even dared to tamper with the opinions issued by the ministries and commissions. These people are really bold and have lost their party spirit and principles. If you even dare to alter the documents of state ministries and commissions, what else would you not dare? If such a person does not expose it, what will he do if he stays there?"

Xu Shangchu shook his head and said, "Lao Zhang, you still have that temper. If you report to the Central Adjustment Department and the country, you can really bring down Hu Qingming, I won't say a word, and I support you in exposing it. The problem is that you can't bring him down at all, and in this case, we should fight for our own best interests. ”

Zhang Ke glared angrily at Xu Shangchu: "Interests! You only have interests in your eyes! Where are your party nature and principles?"

Xu Shangchu knew the character of his old friend, and he didn't get angry, but said: "Lao Zhang, we must also pay attention to ways and means in the struggle, right? Hu Qingming is not a fool, and he will directly tell Huo Zhengang that you go and secretly change the documents of the Central Adjustment Department and don't let this piece pass." This must be the case, Hu Qingming kept putting pressure on Huo Zhengang, but Huo Zhengang couldn't stand it. If the Central Investigation Department does not review it, then he can make an excuse and say that the Central Investigation Department does not agree to release it and deny the film. But the Central Dispatch Department said that "Hoe Rape" could be released, and gave an opinion, so they couldn't use the Central Dispatch Department as a shield. In this case, Huo Zhengang could only take a risk. When asking the people of the film bureau to make copies, the most critical parts of the opinions of the central transfer department are covered. Then I will call Beiping, who has not read the document, and let me see the tampered document. I want to fool things over. If Wangqiu and Xie Fei hadn't read the documents, if I hadn't communicated with Wangqiu, then it would have been really possible to fool the past. ”

Xu Shangchu paused and said: "This matter should be the idea of Huo Zhengang or others in the Film Bureau, even if the board on it really wants to be knocked down, it can't hit Hu Qingming, but on Huo Zhengang, or the Film Bureau." Is it any good for us to defeat Huo Zhengang? No! It can only add one more enemy, and it is even possible to offend the entire film bureau. This is not a good thing for Wangqiu or for us in the Shadow Factory. ”

Xu Wangqiu and Xie Fei both nodded slightly, the county officials might as well be in charge now, if they really offend the entire Metropolitan Film Bureau because of this, then the film will be in trouble when it comes to censorship in the future.

Zhang Ke also felt that Xu Shangchu's words made sense, and sighed slightly and said, "Then what do you say?"

Xu Shangchu said slowly: "Let Huo Zhengang and them go, but we must also let them understand that we caught their pigtails, but instead of pulling the braids, we let them go." In this way, Huo Zhengang and the Film Bureau owe us favors, even if they won't give us the green light on censorship in the future, at least they won't deliberately make things difficult for us!" Xu Shangchu saw that everyone nodded slightly, revealing a sly smile: "This matter has to be handled by Wangqiu and Xie Fei." ”

The next day, Xu Wangqiu and Xie Fei came to the Film Bureau and broke into Huo Zhengang's office.

When Xie Fei saw Huo Zhengang, he didn't sell it, and asked directly: "Director, we have revised it according to the opinions of the Central Investigation Department, when will we be issued an approval order?"

Huo Zhengang looked at Xie Fei intently, and saw that his eyes were resolute and not timid, he sighed slightly, and said, "Hey, you don't know, Minister Hu's words made me so passive!"

Xu Wangqiu knew that Huo Zhengang was saying that it was Hu Qingming who forced him to take back his life, and he had no choice. Xu Wangqiu believed that what Huo Zhengang said was true, otherwise he would not have given him and Xie Fei the documents of the Central Investigation Department.

Xie Fei lowered his voice and said, "Director, you may not know, we are also very passive. When we went to the Magic Shadow Factory to reshoot, Director Xu Shangchu criticized us, saying that we lied about the military situation. ”

Huo Zhengang was slightly stunned: "Why do you say that?"

Xie Fei sighed slightly and said, "That day, you showed us the review opinions of the Central Investigation Department, and we conveyed the content of the document to the Shadow Factory. But the factory said that we had tampered with the documents. ”

Huo Zhengang's eyes flashed, and he asked, "What did you change?" Do you remember the original text?"

Xie Fei chuckled: "Of course I remember, we copied the document, and the first paragraph of the original text is, on the whole, "Hoe Rape" shows the heroic struggle of our party's underground workers against the enemy, and shows their unyielding and unyielding revolutionary spirit of not afraid of sacrifice. As a feature film, it can be acted. ”

Xie Fei made a look of grievance: "I don't know what's going on, Director Xu didn't have this paragraph in the document he saw, as if I added it on purpose." This matter must be clarified, and when the time comes, I will go to Director Zhang Ke, he knows the people from the Central Dispatch Department, and when the time comes, I will find someone from the Central Dispatch Department to ask what is going on. ”

Xu Wangqiu knew that he had to jump out and pretend to be stunned, so he shouted loudly: "It must be Hu Qingming who deliberately made it bad, and didn't want "Hoe Rape" to pass, so he changed the document. Hu Qingming is narrow-minded and deliberately retaliates. I think we should tell the Central Dispatch Department, and the Central Committee should also write a letter saying that Hu Qingming retaliated and tampered with the Central Committee's documents, so as to prevent the Central Dispatch Department's film from passing. ”

Huo Zhengang's face changed slightly, if this matter really wants to be stabbed by the Central Dispatch Department and the higher-level department, then something will happen, so he hurriedly dissuaded: "Don't worry, we have all seen the documents of the Central Dispatch Department, and there will definitely be no problem with passing the order." As for what's going on, let's let the Film Bureau investigate, and I'll ask the Art Department to find out what's going on. You can rest assured. ”

Things turned out to be as Xu Shangchu expected, and the passage order of "Hoe Rape" came down quickly. According to the practice of the Film Bureau, the results of "Hoe Rape" will not be available for at least half a month after it is re-submitted for review, but only four days later, Xu Wangqiu and his team received a notice from the Film Bureau's production office, asking them to get the approval order.

At nine o'clock in the morning of the next day, Xu Wangqiu and Xie Fei came to the production office and successfully got the approval order. Looking at the paper passing order, the stone in Xu Wangqiu and Xie Fei's hearts really fell to the ground. The two looked at each other and smiled, shaking it vigorously. "Hoe Rape" has gone through many twists and turns and trials and tribulations since the beginning of preparation, and now it has finally passed the last level. The next step is to sell the film rights to China Film Company. In a month or two, the movie will be officially released.

Coming out of the production office, Xu Wangqiu and Xie Fei quietly found their senior brother Ye Zhiming and asked what was going on, how did they get the approval order so quickly. Ye Zhiming lowered his voice and said, "This time Huo Zhengang has become smarter. After the film bureau reviewed, he did not report to Hu Qingming in person, but sent an application to the past, which read: The revised copy of "Hoe Rape" has been reviewed by the Film Bureau, and everything that should be changed has been changed. The director has a good attitude. Please use your discretion. Hu Qingming had no reason to oppose it at all, so he could only draw a circle to pass. ”

Three days later, the Magic Shadow Studio signed an agreement with China Film Company to sell the copyright of "Hoe Rape" to China Film Company. Xu Shangchu feasted the guests, and invited the main creator of "Hoe Rape" Nortel, as well as all the teachers of Nortel, to have dinner in Quanjude.

In the process of filming "Hoe Rape", Nortel teachers and students did not take a penny, and they brought their own rolls and ate pickles to finish the filming. Now "Hoe Rape" has received rave reviews in the circle, and it has earned 210,000 yuan for the Magic Shadow Factory. As the director of the Magic Shadow Factory, Xu Shangchu must express it, otherwise he will not be happy in his heart. In this era, the bonus is not willing to be sent randomly, and he has no way to send money to everyone, so he can only invite everyone to Quanjude for a big meal to express his heart.

At the wine table, Xu Shangchu smiled and said to Xu Wangqiu: "We should really thank Minister Hu." If it weren't for Minister Hu's obstruction, "The Rape" would only be sold to China Film Company for 700,000 yuan, but after such a delay, Document 198 came out, and a movie could be sold for 900,000 yuan, and our income was 200,000 yuan more!"

Xu Wangqiu and Xie Fei laughed when they heard this, and they felt very happy in their hearts. If Minister Hu knew that instead of preventing the release of "Hoe Rape", he would have increased the income of the movie by 200,000 yuan, he would definitely be so depressed that he couldn't eat!

Xu Wangqiu raised his glass and said loudly: "No matter what, we should all give Minister Hu a glass." We wish Minister Hu good health and all the best!"

When everyone heard this, they raised their glasses one after another and said with a smile: "I wish Minister Hu good health and all the best!"

On this day, Hu Qingming received a letter from the mail, and the envelope read "Hu Qingming personally opened". After opening the envelope, Hu Qingming just glanced at his face, his face darkened, his eyes flashed with anger, he picked up the teacup and slammed it on the ground. With a crisp sound, the debris fled in all directions.

There was only one sentence in the letter: "If there was no Minister Hu, "Hoe Rape" would have been sold to China Film before Document 198 came out, and it would only be sold for 700,000 yuan, and now it is 200,000 more." Thank you so much Minister Hu. I wish Minister Hu good health and all the best!"
