During the reception, Lao Jiang didn't even wear the dentures he usually used to maintain his image, and he talked and laughed during the banquet, and he felt at home. Knocked on the side, and conveyed his own views on the domestic political situation to Hemingway without leaking.

Lao Jiang didn't know, but anyone who can reach the top in an industry, which one is so easy to be fooled. What's more, Hemingway not only read thousands of books and traveled thousands of miles, but also experienced war and life and death. He has long understood all the coldness and fiery of the human heart, the sinister and the deceitful. The heart is tough and unshakable. What's more, Lao Jiang's oriental-style communication skills are completely a pearl for Hemingway and Ge Erhong. Therefore, these two don't eat Lao Jiang's set at all.

In later generations, Ge Erhong's memories of meeting Kong Xiangxi and Chiang Kai-shek described: "At a certain party, I met Mrs. Kong, who was very good at dressing up. Her dress was one of the most beautiful I had ever seen, in the classical Chinese style, black velvet. The cheongsam has diamonds from the collar to the hem of the small buttons. It is said that Mrs. Kong also has ruby and emerald clasps, and the sapphire is not used because it cannot be revealed. ”

These words seem to be a woman's praise for another woman's exquisite dressing, but in combination with the dangerous situation in China at that time, the luxury and beauty of this country have become a great irony. After Hemingway returned to the United States, he also wrote six investigation reports on China's current situation, including "The Soviet-Japanese Treaty Signed," "Japan Must Conquer China," "U.S. Aid to China," "Japan's Status in China," "China's Air Force Urgently Needs to Be Strengthened," and "China Stepping Up the Construction of Airports."

The results of Lao Jiang's deception of him were not reflected in the report at all.

On April 16, 1941, Hemingway and Ge Erhong left Chongqing and took a plane to Kunming. Then drive south along the Burma Highway to Yangon. After a week's stay, return to Hong Kong. Prepare for your flight back to the United States.

When all the tasks were over, both Hemingway and Ge Erhong felt a little tired from the long journey. So the night before leaving, we went to a bar in Hong Kong and had two drinks and relaxed. Unexpectedly, I met Yu Sheng's party!

Hemingway said to the rest of his life: "Women will not understand the fight between men." Unless you're making a movie purely for girls, this kind of struggle is essential! ”

"So, Mr. Hemingway, what kind of struggle do you think would be more appropriate for this movie?"

"What's the best choice for this? Your country is at war with the Japanese, and I can see that this war is a war that will never end until one of the two countries falls. What do you have to consider? Since the Japanese occupy your Shanghai, then you should beat him up in Shanghai! A man can be killed, but not defeated! ”

Yu Sheng laughed and said to Hemingway: "I think so too." ”

Although Zhang Ailing did not agree with what Hemingway said, this Hemingway's reputation is far greater than that of Zhang Ailing. Moreover, Zhang Ailing has also read Hemingway's books, and I have to admire this Hemingway's talent. It's just that, out of the self-esteem of a little girl and the arrogance of a genius, she didn't open her mouth to argue. Just put on a "I'm not convinced" expression, looked at Hemingway, and tried to eliminate him with his eyes.

At this time, Ge Erhong said to Hemingway next to him: "This Chinese young man is not simple, his film works are very popular in China, and we have seen them in the United States." ”

"Oh? Could it be "Havoc in Heaven" and "The Great Wall Will Never Fall"? There are only two famous Chinese movies in the United States! ”

"That's right, it's this young man surnamed Yu!"

Hemingway laughed, took a big sip of whiskey, and said to Yu Sheng: "Mr. Yu, I like the monkey in "Havoc in Heaven" very much!" ”

For the rest of his life, as the fourth level of English in later generations, the simple conversation between these two people can still be understood. also smiled: "Mr. Hemingway, I want to add your name to the film director, is that okay?" ”

"If you take my advice, of course add my name!" Hemingway laughed.

With Hemingway's name in this film, the influence of this film is not limited to China. With the sales results of the movies under the name of the rest of his life in the United States and Hemingway's fame, "Shanghai Tang" is expected to be a big hit after its release in the United States!

Therefore, Yu Sheng was overjoyed and said: "Today's wine is all counted in my account!" Ten more whiskeys! Let's get drunk! Hemingway was overjoyed when he heard that there was wine to drink. In his life, he smoked, drank and was a woman, fighting wars and adventures, but he didn't like anything related to male hormones.

The two men were happy to talk about it, and they drank together. Only three women, Ge Erhong, Zhang Ailing and Qing Xiaoyi, looked at each other, but all three women spoke English. Therefore, the woman's natural dating function is automatically turned on, muttering about the topics that women care about together. The two little girls listened to Ge Erhong talk about her adventures on the front line of the Spanish Civil War, and they were full of admiration and envy for such a life experience.

Ge Erhong told that in the middle of the night, Yu Sheng and Hemingway were already drunk. Two drunken men were sent home by their own women in a complaint. Only Zhang Ailing went back to school alone.

The next day, when Yu Sheng woke up, it was already noon. Qing Xiaoyi prepared honey water for him. The rest of your life drank it dry in one gulp. Wake up in your head. took out a pen and paper and gave the outline of "Shanghai Tang".

The story is set and different from the original. The collusion between the Japanese and Feng Jingyao in the play is still there, and serves as the backbone of the story. After Xu Wenqiang rescued Feng Chengcheng, he and Ding Li were reused by Feng Jingyao. In the process of Xu Wenqiang's business for Feng Jingyao, he found that Feng Jingyao actually sold tobacco, soil and arms for the Japanese, and did not hesitate to bring disaster to the country and the people in order to make huge profits.

After Xu Wenqiang learned of this, he gradually distanced himself from Feng Jingyao, and Ding Li, in order to get close to Feng Chengcheng, still worked hard for Feng Jingyao. And the ending turned into that the Japanese, in order to kill people, were ready to kill Xu Wenqiang and Feng Jingyao together after Xu Wenqiang arrived at the church. At the critical juncture, Xu Wenqiang took Feng Chengcheng to rush out of the encirclement of the Japanese, and Ding Li was killed by the Japanese together with Feng Jingyao in order to cover Feng Jingyao. As for Fang Yanyun, she naturally left Shanghai after Feng Jingyao's death.

Such a story was actually conceived for the rest of his life, which not only conforms to the setting of the relationship between the characters, but also conforms to the Hollywood-style ending of the happy reunion of the hero and heroine. After Zhang Ailing saw it, she rolled her eyes for a long time. commented: "Such a movie is only in line with fantasy, but it is not in line with reality. However, the prince and princess are happily together, which is every woman's ultimate dream of romance, so it can be said that it is reasonable.
