420 [Hidden Dragon Crouching Tiger's Good Vision]
Since the Opium War, there have been more than 20 governors in Hong Kong. MacLehose is the longest-tenured and the most contributing.
During his tenure, MacLehose promoted drastic reforms in various areas such as housing, integrity, education, healthcare, welfare, infrastructure, transportation, economy and society, and introduced important policies and constructions such as the 10-year housing plan, the development of new towns, the establishment of the Independent Commission Against Corruption, nine years of free education, the construction of roads and local administration reforms. Public opinion called it the "MacLehose era".
Wang Zijun observed the Hong Kong Governor up close, he was tall, his hair was combed in a strict way, and even at home, he was wearing formal clothes, and his suit was clean and straight. He spoke softly, but there was a hint of unquestionable tone in his tone.
And James. George was not, the beard on his face had not been shaved for months, the coat was not buttoned properly, and even a button had fallen off, revealing a black thread. This unkempt and non-appearance-oriented appearance gives a sense of intimacy, at least Wang Zijun prefers to get along with this kind of person.
James. George talked about what he had seen and heard in Hong Kong in the past few days, and then turned to the current bad situation in England, and laughed maniacally: "Morey, it seems that you have governed Hong Kong well, and I think you are more interesting to be the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom than the little carpenter in London and the guy with the same name as me." Wilson, the old guy, is not bad, but unfortunately he is a soft egg, and he was forced to resign by a small conspiracy. ”
James said this in a completely mocking tone, the little carpenter in his mouth is the former British Prime Minister Edward, and the guy with the same name as him is the current Prime Minister James. Callaghan, while Wilson is the former prime minister who resigned last year.
The seventies in Britain were very bad, in the first recession after World War II, and although the income of the people increased, it was all thanks to some of the policies implemented in the sixties, as well as the constant strikes of the trade unions. In Britain in the 70s, there was no improvement in all aspects of society, and the national power was deteriorating, and this bad situation was not reversed until the Iron Lady Margaret Thatcher came to power.
James. Brown could laugh and scold a few prime ministers, but MacLehose couldn't, he shook his head and smiled wryly: "No, if I were in that position, I would certainly not have done better than several prime ministers, or even worse." The political situation in Hong Kong is not so complicated, and in the UK, there is a need to balance the interests of all parties. ”
Wang Zijun couldn't help but interject: "I think several prime ministers of your country are too weak, if there is a strong figure who overrides public opinion and enforces reforms, maybe it can be successful." ”
I don't know anything else, but Wang Zijun still knows a little about Margaret Thatcher's methods.
"Little one, you also like to study politics? This is not a good habit. "James. Brown quipped.
Wang Zijun shrugged: "People are political animals, and it is impossible for us to escape the influence of politics." ”
MacLehose asked with interest: "Do you think iron-fisted politics in Britain will be successful?" ”
Wang Zijun said with a smile: "If the current British iron-fisted politics are implemented, there will be no more than two results, one is the failure of reform, and then it will be spurned by all groups; One is that the reform has been successful and is sought after by the majority of groups. In fact, the first two British prime ministers hesitated, procrastinated on reforms, took three steps forward and two steps back, and constantly made compromises with foreign countries, but what was the final result? When he left office, he was still disgraced. In that case, why not try an iron fist? Even if it fails, the consequences are not much more serious than a compromise, and it is only a little more infamy. ”
"Well said, this should be said in front of those soft politicians, and slapped both of them hard." James cheered, and his impression of Wang Zijun was very good. …,
Mrs. MacLehose and Audrey chatting. Hepburn was also attracted by James's applause, and looked at this side curiously, not knowing what the three men were talking about, they were so excited.
MacLehose smiled bitterly, Wang Zijun didn't have a backache when he stood and spoke, those politicians are old foxes, no matter what they do, they will leave a way back for themselves, how many dare to do this? If it fails, who will clean up the mess left behind?
But talking about this, it makes MacLehose look at Wang Zijun differently, and no longer simply regard him as a popular artist - what artist in Asia would go to pay attention to the situation in the UK? And also have their own political views.
Speaking of MacLehose's impression of Wang Zijun, it has to be pushed back to several years ago.
In 1971, Taiwan's fishing campaign was huge, and during the same period, Hong Kong also carried out a months-long fishing campaign. The Taiwan authorities have tacitly acquiesced and even encouraged the anti-fishing movement, while the British authorities in Hong Kong are worried that it will brew into the kind of riots of the 60s. As a result, the Hong Kong Police Department took it upon itself to arrest the fishermen, causing an uproar -- in Hong Kong, which claims to be democratic, it has openly arrested law-abiding citizens who marched on a large scale.
Under the pressure of public opinion, MacLehose had to come out in person to clarify the release, and later dismissed a group of British police officers.
At that time, Hong Kong's anti-fishing campaign was half a month later than Taiwan's, and one of the reasons for the march was to protest against the Japanese assassination of Wang Zijun, who was only a student of Baoyu at the time. So MacLehose, who personally dealt with this matter, was very impressed by Wang Zijun.
"Young man, it seems that you appreciate iron-fisted politics, just like the current Mr. Chiang in Taiwan." When MacLehose said this, he was a little surprised that he was actually talking to a young man about politics.
"Proper iron-fisted politics is good for the development and prosperity of the country, but it can also lead to dictatorship. Moreover, it will inevitably hurt the interests of some people, and in order to win the supporters of Liliang, its policies will be skewed towards certain groups, which will cause the rich to get richer and the poor to enjoy the surplus soup, widening the gap between the rich and the poor. Just like in England, I spent three months in Spain the year before last when I heard five general strikes on the British side. If a strong prime minister comes to power to implement reforms, the first thing he does is to weaken the trade unions and reduce the country's internal friction. Even if this is successful, it will inevitably widen the gap between the rich and the poor in Britain, undermine the atmosphere of democracy, and lead to social division...... "Wang Zijun talked eloquently, but he was talking about the consequences of Margaret Thatcher's reforms, which have affected Wang Zijun through the previous era.
In fact, Margaret Thatcher, despite her political achievements, was ruined in England by a mixed bag. Later, Margaret Thatcher ranked 16th among the favorite people in the United Kingdom, ahead of Churchill, Shakespeare and others; But among the most hated figures, Margaret Thatcher is in the top three, and you can imagine how much some people in Britain hate her, and some people even call her a "cold-blooded dictator".
As soon as Wang Zijun's words came out, MacLehose and James were silent.
British politicians are not fools, Wang Zijun understands the truth, they will not see it clearly? It's just that Wang Zijun only needs to talk on paper and point out the country, while politicians have to face all kinds of constraints.
The first thing that needs to be done to quell the chaos in Britain is to suppress the trade unions. Former Prime Minister Edward reformed the trade unions, but unfortunately lost in the end; Prime Minister Wilson, who has just resigned for only a few months, is himself from the Labour Party; The current Prime Minister, James, is the product of Labour's compromise.
The trade union has become a behemoth, not only in Britain, but now in Western Europe where the socialist (not **) trend of thought prevails, and the current French Prime Minister Raymond. Barr also has a headache with the union. …,
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little dull, James smiled and said, "What are we talking about?" Give those politicians a headache. Morey, I decided that the charity dinner will be ten days away, what are your thoughts? ”
"No, it's almost the Chinese New Year in ten days, so let's wait until the New Year is over." MacLehose said.
Wang Zijun said: "Sir Mak, I think it's just right, as the New Year approaches, everyone has nothing to take care of, and they just have time to participate." ”
MacLehose said, "Okay, I'll be there on time." ”
"You don't mind if I use your name, do you?" James looked at MacLehose and smiled like a fox.
"Whatever you want." MacLehose stroked his forehead and said that he was very familiar with James's personality and knew what he was thinking. But this is also doing good deeds, and MacLehose is happy to do favors.
After dinner at MacLehose's place, James stayed, saying that he wanted to catch up with MacLehose, and Wang Zijun took Audrey. Hepburn drove away.
"Thank you!" After getting into the car, Wang Zijun hugged Audrey. Hepburn, kissed her on the forehead. The woman next to him helped him too much, and "People and Ghosts Are Not Over" earned enough eyeballs and money because of her appearance; During the filming of "Food Truck", Audrey. Hepburn even used his network to help him connect with sponsors and filming locations; Now as a charitable fund, I am doing my best to bring James . Brown was invited from England to Hong Kong. This woman has been silently paying for her.
"No thanks, dear, I'm just helping my daughter's father." Audrey. Hepburn smiled.
The car drove away slowly, and Mrs. MacLehose, who was standing on the balcony of the villa, said in surprise: "God, Darling, guess what I just saw?" ”
"What do you see?" MacLehose asked.
"Audrey actually kissed Mr. Wang in the car, are they lovers?" Mrs. MacLehose incredulous.
James laughed and said, "Jesse, are you jealous of Audrey?" Wang is not only young and strong, but also very handsome in the eyes of Oriental aesthetics. ”
"It's not funny at all." MacLehose was a little angry, and James was joking with his wife.
The old James shrugged his shoulders and smiled strangely at the couple.
Mrs. MacLehose said: "I was just surprised that it was not only an exotic relationship, but also an extramarital affair, Wang Yijing was married, and Audrey did not seem to have officially divorced her husband. And their age, God, please forgive the sins of mortals. ”
James smiled fearfully, "Don't you think it's romantic?" If this news spreads, I am afraid that many people will fall into the eyeballs. You know, they Yijing gave birth to a daughter. ”
As soon as these words came out, not only Mrs. MacLehose, but even MacLehose himself almost fell down on his feet.
Back at the villa, Wang Zijun teased her daughter after taking a bath, and talked to Lin Qingxia on the phone before going to bed with Audrey. Hepburn was warm and affectionate.
The next day, Wen Qin rushed over from Taipei, with the Three Kingdoms cartoon titles and trailers made by Taiwan. These characters of the Three Kingdoms were all drawn by Wang Zijun, and their images are mainly based on the glorious "Three Kingdoms" series, "Three Kingdoms Warriors" series, and other Three Kingdoms game characters in later Japan.
When Wang Zijun handed over these things to Lin Xuhua, he directly shocked Lin Xuhua.
"Fantastic? Which cartoonist drew it? This Guan Yu and Zhang Fei are really god-shaped, and people feel that they should be like this at a glance. This Cao Cao is so domineering......" Lin Xuhua admired while watching the animation. As a source of information, he originally planned to let his subordinates use the "Romance of the Three Kingdoms" TV series broadcast a few months ago as material to produce the later stage of "Wang Zijun Says the Three Kingdoms". No, Wang Zijun actually took out this hand silently. …,
Wang Zijun suddenly had a strange idea, when he saw these images just now, he suddenly remembered the card game "Three Kingdoms" in his previous life.
When will "Three Kingdoms Kill" be withdrawn, and if the promotion is done well, there should be a market. Japan's famous Nintendo, before making games, didn't start by selling flower cards.
Getting rid of Lin Xuhua's curious baby-like entanglement, Wang Zijun found Jiashi's equipment management personnel and borrowed a video camera and some film from him. He plans to use this thing to spend a few days shooting sensational advertisements for some poor children who cannot afford to go to school, so as to build momentum for the Xiwang Foundation.
He had just led the camera out and walked down the aisle with his shoulder on his shoulder, when suddenly a white figure came out of the corner and crashed into him.
Wang Zijun was startled, and the camera on his shoulder was almost knocked to the ground.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" The girl who hit him kept bowing and apologizing.
"It's okay, be careful when you walk in the future." Wang Zijun said and was about to walk around her.
"Oops!" The girl groaned suddenly.
"What's wrong?" Wang Zijun asked.
The girl raised her head and looked at him pitifully: "My foot seems to be broken." ”
Only then did Wang Zijun see the girl's face clearly, and then glanced at her so-called broken foot, which was angry and funny.
This girl has had too much, obviously deliberately bumped into the stubble, her biggest flaw is to see Wang Zijun actually forced to calm down, without showing a trace of surprise and surprise, and her eyes flickered, and she didn't dare to look directly at Wang Zijun.
The funniest thing is that this girl is actually Zheng Yuling.
"Shoot well, don't be careful!" Wang Zijun smiled at her, carried the camera and left.
Zheng Yuling's trick was exposed, her face turned pale, and she almost cried out in shame.
Wang Zijun walked a few steps, felt that his words hurt the little girl's face a little, turned around and smiled: "You are very cute, I wish you fame as soon as possible." ”
Wang Zijun's figure disappeared into the corridor, and Zheng Yuling stood there with a fever on her face. Not long after, another girl came running up and asked, "Dudu, how is it?" Did you talk to the chairman? ”
"Panpan, don't talk about it, it's a shame." Zheng Yuling covered her face and said.
The one who came behind was Yang Panpan (played Mu Nianci in Weng Meiling's version of "Shooting the Condor").
"He ignores you?" Yang Panpan asked.
Zheng Yuling stomped her feet and said, "I've been seen through." ”
"No, you're still an actor, it's so easy to be seen through. I'm convinced. Yang Panpan sighed.
"Do you think he will look down on me and deliberately not let me act?" Zheng Yuling asked worriedly. She and Yang Panpan met last year when they were filming the Jiatv version of "The Crane Needle" and became good friends. This time, I came to "bump" Wang Zijun, but I just wanted to talk to Wang Zijun, so that I could get a good role in the upcoming filming of "Dream of Red Mansions".
If it's self-defeating, you really can't cry.
Wang Zijun came to the TV crew with the camera and asked them to borrow an assistant.
Not long after, He Yuan, the leader of the TV crew, came over with a man in his 40s and said to Wang Zijun: "This is Xiao Sheng, I know a little bit about everything, and you promise to be satisfied, chairman." ”
Wang Zijun was dizzy, this Jiashi is really a hidden dragon and a crouching tiger, he could meet Zheng Yuling when he walked just now, and now he has a Xiao Sheng. But think about it, even Tsui Hark and others were born in Jiashi, and that number of Xiao Sheng is nothing.
What the? You don't know who Xiao Sheng is? Andy Lau and Tony Leung, you always know. The wireless five tigers are all popular by Xiao Sheng.
"Hello chairman!" Xiao Sheng stretched out his hands and shook hands with Wang Zijun.
Xiao Sheng is 50 years old and 50 years old this year, and he has been mixed in the film industry before, doing all kinds of miscellaneous actions. Later, he switched to a mixed TV station, and after many years, he finally supervised the production of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" last year, which became an instant hit. …,
When Xiao Sheng was supervising the production of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", he was originally quite dissatisfied with Wang Zijun, mainly because Wang Zijun interfered in the selection of actors. However, it turned out that Chow Yun-fat was indeed very good, which was smooth.
Xiao Sheng is a typical late bloomer, he only emerged when he was forty or fifty years old, and his edges and corners were all polished. So although he was a little unhappy with Wang Zijun, he still showed great respect, not only shaking hands with both hands, but also bending forward a little. After all, Wang Zijun's words now can make him lose all the rights and positions in his hands.
Wang Zijun was surprised: "Team Leader He, I just want an ordinary assistant, how did you find the big talent in the station." This is a knife used to kill chickens. ”
He Yuan said with a smile: "Everyone in the station is busy, and the rest of the people are on vacation, and Ah Sheng happens to be free." ”
"Okay then." Wang Zijun turned his head to Xiao Sheng and said, "Mr. Xiao, I have wronged you." ”
"Where's the chairman?" Xiao Sheng saw that Wang Zijun respected him a lot, and the dissatisfaction in his heart disappeared.
"Okay, I'll drive to Taili tomorrow morning to pick you up." After Wang Zijun finished speaking, he took the camera to say goodbye.
Wang Zijun walked to the door of the TV station, but saw Zhao Yazhi coming over with a smile and looking at him with disgust.
"Ah Zhi, why are you here?" Wang Zijun said.
Zhao Yazhi said: "It's a holiday." Where have you been, I have been calling everywhere for the past two days and I have not been able to find anyone. ”
