When he met Zhang Shankun, Liu Yimin's mind was very complicated.
The Japanese devils killed people and set fire to them in China, and countless heroes and sons and daughters were fighting bloody battles with the devils, but from Harbin to Guangzhou, in the big cities of the Japanese war zone, the economy was still abnormally prosperous, and some capitalists were still good at dancing, playing left and right, and making a fortune. You say that he is a traitor, but that is nonsense, because he defects to the enemy every month, and there is no evil deed. You say that he is not a traitor, and without the permission and support of the Japanese puppet, it is impossible for such a big business to develop. Moreover, because of their efforts, they indirectly helped the Japanese puppet army to create a false prosperity in the occupied area, and the taxes they paid supported the Japanese puppet army to resist the frantic attack of the Japanese army and civilians. To say that they are obedient to the people is more counterproductive than ordinary people.
They are all Chinese, why do some people throw their heads, spill blood, and fight with devils with hunger, while some people enjoy happily in suits and leather shoes and abalone swallow fins under the wings of Japanese pseudo-eggs?
Think about the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, these people and those whose children all died on the battlefield of resistance against Japan shared the fruits of victory. I can't help but sigh in my heart!
The situation in the Shanghai Concession was different from that of other Japanese-occupied cities, and at this time the Shanghai Concession was already an isolated island, relying on extraterritoriality to dance on the tip of the Japanese pseudo-bayonet.
Zhang Shankun in front of him looked shrewd. Dressed in suits and leather shoes, the image of the militia and district squad members in North China wearing white turbans, wearing black coarse cloth clothes, and shuttling between the Japanese pseudo-blockade lines emerged in Liu Yimin's mind, and the images of the villagers who died in the Japanese army's sweep and bacteriological warfare emerged, and his heart suddenly gave birth to infinite sighs.
Sighing and sighing, in the face of Zhang Shankun, the representative of Shanghai's isolated island movie, Liu Yimin is still full of joy. Because the costume films made by Zhang Shankun's Xinhua Film Company adopted the method of using the past to satirize the present, and incorporated politics into the culture, which played a role in encouraging the Anti-Japanese War. Like "Mulan in the Army", "Su Wu Shepherd", "Yanmen Pass", "Qin Liangyu", "Liang Hongyu", "Li Xiangjun", "Lin Chongxue Annihilated the Enemy at Night", "Yue Fei Loyal to the Country" and other movies. All of them are based on Chinese historical literature and drama stories, and extract realistic themes from them, giving warnings and encouragement to people on isolated islands.
There are also films such as "Thunderstorm" and "Top Gun" shot by Zhang Shankun Xinhua Film Company. In this era, there is not only a high quality of art, but also closely follows the pulse of the times, or criticizes feudalism, or metaphorizes anti-Japanese, all of which have practical significance. In particular, they run the "Xinhua Pictorial". He has published information on the Japanese invasion and humiliation of China many times, and organized the discussion of "National Defense Film".
Compared with those speculative film companies who want to make money but are unwilling to take risks, Zhang Shankun can be regarded as a film investor with responsibility, vision and progressive ideas.
For a movie boss like Zhang Shankun, the Eighth Route Army should protect, encourage and support!
It's a pity. After the outbreak of the Taiping War, the Japanese army occupied the concession. In 1943, the Wang puppet government established the "China Film United Joint Stock Company", and Zhang Shankun served as the deputy general manager and director of the production department. It can be regarded as a formal pseudo-position. As a result, the Japanese suspected that he had ties to the Kuomintang and arrested him. finally spent money to find someone to guarantee the release, and the two fled to the free zone in a hurry, ** and said that he had held a false position and imprisoned him. It was not released until the end of the Anti-Japanese War.
Speaking of which, this Shankun's life is simply a black humor drama.
Looking at the famous anti-Japanese generals in front of him who made the little devil frightened, Zhang Shankun, who was originally shouting outside the China Merchants Building to see Liu Yimin, suddenly became cramped.
This time to attack and occupy Shanghai, the time is extremely tight, Liu Yimin is very busy, there are still many important things to do, there is no time. Otherwise, he would probably order all units to take turns to arrange for the soldiers to go to the cinema in Shanghai to watch a movie, and he might also take Tang Xingying, Zhao Xiaoman, and Ni Hua's mother and son to watch a movie. The impact of the invasion and occupation of Shanghai is too great, and now when I turn on the radio, I can hear the news of the Eighth Route Army's capture of Shanghai. News agencies in Britain, the United States, Australia, and other countries all issued press releases congratulating the Eighth Route Army on the capture of Shanghai and commenting on the tremendous impact of the Eighth Route Army's capture of Shanghai. The news agencies and radio stations of the Kuomintang and the Communist Party in the rear areas of Shaanxi and Sichuan were all positively appraising the combat action of capturing Shanghai. The people in the rear took to the streets, risking the possibility of being attacked by Japanese planes, chanting slogans to resist Japan and save the country, and marched. It is the big Shanghai in front of you, the streets are full of anti-Japanese slogans, and the workers in Shanghai have organized themselves, under the leadership of the cadres and soldiers of the Eighth Route Army, to help the Eighth Route Army carry materials, distribute and receive relief food, and it is very lively!
Seeing that Zhang Shankun was cramped and restless, and fine beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, Liu Yimin laughed and said: "Boss Zhang, I am not afraid when I see the commander of the Japanese army, why am I nervous when I see the commander of the squadron?" ”
Zhang Shankun hurriedly took out a handkerchief from his pocket to wipe the beads of sweat on his forehead, and said in a snort: "General Liu, no, Commander Liu, the contemptible name is Zhang Shankun, and he is the boss of Xinhua Film Company. ”
Liu Yimin waved his hand: "No need to introduce yourself, I already know." Sit down and say what you ask. ”
Zhang Shankun sat down at this time, and hurriedly stood up before he could speak, Liu Yimin had to say I still have something, you hurry up and say, Zhang Shankun said: "Commander Liu, Xinhua Film Company specializes in making movies, and it was founded by me and my colleagues, and there is really no Japanese pseudo-background." Be discerning! ”
Liu Yimin nodded, sat down and wrote a note directly, calling Li Xiaoshuai to come in and ask him to send someone to ** immediately. Immediately stop the seizure of Xinhua Film Company and withdraw the troops. After explaining, Liu Yimin couldn't help muttering: "Play the piano randomly!" ”
Zhang Shankun didn't expect that he would do it so quickly. His mind was also active, and he immediately invited Liu Yimin to Xinhua Pictures to inspect and meet with the creative and cast members. He also said that the staff of Xinhua Film Company are very much looking forward to communicating with the Eighth Route Army and getting to know the real anti-Japanese heroes.
Shanghai has a glorious tradition in the cultural circles, and this is the base camp of the Left Alliance, but it is a pity that Xia Yan, Contradictory and other standard-bearers have all been transferred to Hong Kong, and they have already received notices and are rushing to Shanghai by boat to join the Eighth Route Army. Overnight, he moved to the Shandong base area. Originally, Liu Yimin wanted to hold three forums in Shanghai, one for journalists and one for industrial and commercial representatives. A symposium of cultural figures. But time is pressing, and only one can be opened. Liu Yimin chose to convene a forum for journalists to publicize the anti-Japanese resistance through journalists who were actively anti-Japanese. This symposium of cultural workers can only be put on hold.
Liu Yimin briefly asked how screenwriter Zhou Yibai and director Bu Wancang of Xinhua Film Company were doing. This question shortened the distance and opened Zhang Shankun's chatterbox.
Zhang Shankun said. The reason why Xinhua Film Company can have today's scale is mainly due to several points: first, it insists on innovation in artistic creation, and second, it learns from the business strategy of Jews in terms of business methods. Third, there is a group of filmmakers who love the film industry. In terms of artistic innovation, Shanghai had just fallen. The concession was overcrowded, and some theaters continued to show old movies. There were also some film companies that filmed a large number of ghost themes to anesthetize the people who were confused about the future of the war, and the Japanese vigorously screened films such as "Xindi" and "The Road to Peace in East Asia" filmed by the puppet Manchukuo to carry out slavery education. It was under this circumstance that Xinhua Pictures invested heavily in the filming of "Mulan in the Army" to stimulate anti-Japanese enthusiasm. As a result, it became an instant hit and won the box office championship. In terms of business methods, learn from the Jews' budget-conscious, hype-building and business opportunities. In that year, in order to increase the rental income of the business house on Nanjing Road, Hartung, a Jewish real estate tycoon, used to pave Nanjing Road with pieces of iron plates, which caused the land price and rent of Nanjing Road to skyrocket. Xinhua Pictures drew on this method of building momentum and renovated its advertising campaigns without falling into the trap. For example, when "New Peach Blossom Fan" was released, a fan was given to each movie ticket, which did not cost much and won the love of the audience. By the time "Singing in the Middle of the Night" was released, the company put a large coffin at the entrance of the Jincheng Grand Theater, hung a huge disfigured horror portrait, and used a green light as an eyeball, with a hideous face and a terrifying atmosphere. The next day, the news of a child passing by was published in the newspaper, and later the news of a child being scared to death was published in the tabloids. For a time, it spread to thousands of households in Shanghai, causing a news effect and becoming a huge social news. The company immediately added the words "Do not bring children to watch" in bold on the movie advertisement "Singing in the Middle of the Night" published every day to remind the audience. To put it bluntly, it is to capture the audience's curiosity.
The more Zhang Shankun talked, the more excited he became, his eyes lit up, and then he wanted to talk about the outstanding performances of the creative team and cast and crew of Xinhua Film Company, and how beautiful the movie stars were. Liu Yimin hurriedly stopped him and told him that he would have the opportunity to listen to him talk about the mountains and set up the dragon gate formation again in the future.
Hearing Liu Yimin's expulsion order, Zhang Shankun remembered that the anti-Japanese heroes and legendary generals in front of him who led the army to capture Shanghai overnight were not colleagues in the film industry, let alone moviegoers. He's Meng Lang!
Zhang Shankun hurriedly apologized, and said that after returning home, he would immediately send someone to send some copies of the company's movies to the soldiers of the Eighth Route Army to watch in their free time and enrich their spare time.
This is on point, Liu Yimin nodded in agreement, and encouraged Xinhua Film Company and Shanghai filmmakers to make more high-quality films to promote anti-Japanese resistance.
After Zhang Shankun left, Liu Yimin thought about what he said about creating a sensational effect in advertising and capturing the audience's curiosity, and felt that everything was reasonable, and this method was used in military command, which was camouflage and deception. Since Chiang Kai-shek was too timid to send troops from the Third Theater to occupy Shanghai, and the main force of our army must be evacuated quickly, then a real version of the good show of confusing and deceiving the little devil in Shanghai will be staged in Shanghai, and he will be deceived to death!
Dear friends: The wonderful continues, looking forward to your tickets and rewards, if there can be a few more heads, grandmasters, elders, and protectors, the motivation for the update of the mountain code word will be greater and more sufficient! Thank you, my friends! (To be continued......)
