Chapter 140: If you want to shoot a classic

The opposition's accusation that Ngo Dinh Diem is engaged in dictatorship and "family for the world" is not without purpose.

For example, in the first session of the Republic, more than 80 members of the National Assembly were not elected, but all of them were appointed by Mr. President. Wu Tingjiao, Chen Lichun is, Li Weimin...... No matter what bill is put to Congress, it will be passed with more than 99 percent of the votes in favor, and whoever votes against it will basically end up doing the job.

The bill on the establishment of the management committees of Da Nang, Vung Tau, Binh Dong, Bo Lieu and Di Thi industrial villages, the establishment of circuit courts for industrial villages, the police stations of each industrial village, the tax bureau and the cultural education and health care bureaus, and the separation of administrative jurisdiction and judicial power from the provinces and counties (counties) were passed at one time.

Phu Quoc Island is a large island and is isolated in the Gulf of Thailand, and is officially designated as a special zone of Phu Quoc rather than an industrial village. The Chairman of the Administrative Committee of the SAR is at the same level as the Provincial Governor and is appointed by the President and is responsible to the President.

Including several other industrial estates, all of them are subordinate to the government, and the chairman of the management committee is appointed by the Independence Palace, and the Vietnam Industrial Estate Investment and Development Corporation only invests in and provides some business guidance to the industrial estates and Phu Quoc Special Zone, and is not the competent authority of the industrial villages and Phu Quoc Special Zone.

Ostensibly not an "independent kingdom", in fact the managers of each industrial village are subject to the leadership of the company, who are first the company executives and then the chairman of the management committee.

As long as Ngo Dinh Diem is president for one day, and as long as Ngo Dinh Diem does not fall out with Li Weimin for a day, then the "industrial investment system" will be an "independent kingdom".

Li Weimin was even prepared for the overthrow of Ng Dinh Diem, but it was a big deal that two leaders appeared in each industrial village at the same time, a chairman of the management committee appointed by the government, and a general manager appointed by the board of directors of the industrial investment company.

Pingdong Industrial Village is just a stone's throw away. Qingqing and Justina are arguing about going to DreamWorks to watch a movie.

There was nothing to do in the morning, and they were idle, so Li Weimin decided to accompany them for a walk. In order to leave some suspense, no matter how you ask, there will be no spoilers, and Qingqing will be so anxious that she will grit her teeth.

There was an extra sign of "Pingdong Industrial Village Management Committee" at the gate, and the security guards changed into police uniforms. The documents of every person and vehicle entering and leaving are being carefully checked.

Unlike the embankment police across the river, they are armed with rifles or submachine guns, and even heavy machine guns, mortars, and armored vehicles, the equivalent of armed police units. On active duty, they must live in barracks, receive high-intensity training, ask for instructions and report on everything, ask for leave when entering and leaving, and manage more strictly than the national army.

The chairman of the board of directors is not the president of the republic. Nor is it a high-ranking official of the Ministry of Defense or the General Staff, whose exposure is astonishingly high and known to ordinary workers in the industrial village, not to mention the industrial village police, which is mainly composed of members of the Republican Youth League.

As soon as they got out of the car, a squadron leader on duty at the east gate ran over and reported: "Chairman, Mrs. Yao is here, she has been in the garment factory for a while, and now she is going to the film company. ”

It is normal for Chen Lichun to come to the industrial village.

When she first started, she used to run here a lot. Now it is even more necessary to set up a "women's corps" in the Pingdong Industrial Village, and require the security team to organize female workers to conduct military training in their spare time. She had only hit the target a few days ago, and she personally participated in it and fired several shots.

The "tigress" was too terrifying, Qingqing retreated, pulled his sleeve and said, "Brother, or ...... Why don't we come back in the afternoon? ”

"It's coming. What are you afraid of, besides, I don't have time in the afternoon. ”

Li Weimin smiled, said hello to the team members on duty, chatted with a few small bosses who delivered goods to the village for a while, and no longer took the car. While walking with her sister and Giustina, she looked at a steel studio that had just been built by the film company.

Just as she was about to go in, Chen Li rushed out in a hurry, and as soon as she saw him, she said angrily: "For the people, what kind of bad movie are you shooting!" What can't be filmed, but it has to be filmed - prostitutes - women, some mirrors - the head does not even wear clothes - I do not agree with the screening, and the president will not agree to it! ”

"Mrs. Yao, have you seen it?"

Chen Lichun said angrily: "Look, don't you see that I can run to the embankment to find you?" ”

"Roman Holiday" is a classic, and the one that has just been produced is also a classic, Li Weimin plans to rely on this to establish the status of DreamWorks, make a lot of money with this movie, and adapt it into a musical, and perform on Broadway for ten or twenty years, how can he say that he will not let it go.

However, her mood is understandable, and it is not surprising that Wu Tingyan would oppose it after reading it.

Li Weimin took the ivory fan and offered it courteously, while helping her fan the wind, he grinned and said with a smile: "Mrs. Yao, in fact, I didn't plan to show this movie in Vietnam. In other words, it was specially filmed for foreign audiences, and it was specially used to cheat foreigners out of money. The country is in need of funds and precious foreign exchange, and we can get along with anyone, but we can't get along with money. ”

"For the people, I know it's hard for you to carry a huge debt, but you can't get into the eyes of money. This movie can't be shown in Vietnam, let alone abroad. If it is released, it will affect the image of the country and the image of our Vietnamese women. ”

"Don't worry, we'll talk calmly."

Li Weimin coughed dryly twice, and said seductively: "Mrs. Yao, you can't just take things out of context, you can't just focus on a girl who does prostitution and daughterhood because of family-poverty-poverty, or even fall in love with an American officer, but also see other things that the director expresses artistically."

I didn't have time to watch the movie, but I read the script and it felt very good.

Through a tragic story, the audience is told how much damage the French colonial rule has caused to our country, and how unpopular the Vietminh is, and at the same time tells the audience that the words of the Americans may not be believed, and that their promises are sometimes not only not kept, but even cause more harm to others.

From these perspectives, the whole movie is positive. Foreign audiences, especially American audiences, will feel a strong sense of guilt after watching it, and will be more sympathetic to us than before, and will be more willing to help than before. Politics - we have to take into account the political matters, don't you say? ”

In the movie, the American officer fails to fulfill his promise and betrays his betrayal-love-affection, which eventually leads to the suicide of the Vietnamese girl who once loved her.

In the first half of the year, the U.S. government treacherously wanted to remove the president during the Pyongchon faction's coup d'Γ©tat, and instead supported the "United Front of National Forces" initiated by Le Van Yuan.

The more Chen Lichun thought about it, the more reasonable it became, and he was no longer so angry, but took his arm and said in a consultative tone: "I'm going to do my work on the president's side, but can I cut out those violent and revealing pictures, and the Americans will play with our compatriots, which is too emotionally unacceptable." ”

How to attract the audience without a little violence, Li Weimin pretended to ponder for a moment, and said in the same consultative tone: "Mrs. Yao, or I will let them edit two versions, one for Mr. Yan to see, and the other for the United States to be screened." ”

"Isn't that self-deception?"

"I'm not trying to deceive my superiors and subordinates, and I'm not going to do those stupid things to hide my ears and steal the bell, I just want to cheat them out of their money while lashing out at them. Bonds are getting harder and harder to sell now, and I can't do it by tearing down the east wall to make up for the west wall, and I can't afford to be unprepared. ”

Thinking that he did have difficulties, Chen Lichun agreed against his will: "Okay, just this time, I won't take it as an example." ”

"I knew you would support it."

……

The "tigress" was too terrifying, and when Chen Lichun was sent away, Qingqing couldn't help asking: "Brother, what kind of movie did you make?" ”

"Little Sister Hanoi."

Li Weimin proudly introduced: "The modern film version of Puccini's opera Madama Butterfly tells the story of an American military officer and a fatherless and motherless Vietnamese-prostitute, the female Kim, who meet in a hotel in Hanoi. The two protagonists start out in a non-consensual relationship, but then fall in love with each other.

Era - set on the eve of the withdrawal of French troops from Hanoi, American officers were forced to evacuate along with the offices of the US Military Advisory Corps stationed in Hanoi. He wanted to take Kim away, but the order was very urgent, but his boss did not allow it, so he could only leave Kim and retreat to Saigon.

In the movie, a supporting character named Chuan is a French-Vietnamese engineer who is also the old bustard of the brothel, who dreams of moving to the United States to realize his American-national dream, but facing both the threat of Vietminh and the abandonment of the French, his wish cannot be fulfilled......"

"Saigon Little Sister", one of the four famous musicals in later generations, did not even change the names of the protagonists and supporting roles, but advanced the time background and replaced Saigon with Hanoi.

The love-hate story of an American military officer and an infatuated Vietnamese girl ends tragically with the heroine sacrificing her life in exchange for a bright future for her one-month-old child.

There is romantic love, there is a strong mother-love-affection-nostalgia, there are mountain alliances and sea vows, and there are betrayals......

You don't have to go to the movies, just listening to my brother tell it is very touching, Qingqing said with emotion: "Brother, such a touching story with good music will definitely win the award, and it will definitely be as popular and popular as "Roman Holiday". ”
