Chapter 228 Free Association
The so-called left and right are not distinguished after coming to Hong Kong, but before coming to Hong Kong.
At that time, a large number of filmmakers from the mainland went south, and one of them was named Zhang Shankun.
In 1943, the Wang Puppet government established a "China Film Joint Stock Company", and Zhang Shankun served as deputy general manager and director of the production department. At that time, the Kuomintang was orthodox, and the Wang Puppet was just a Wang Puppet, so he was regarded as a traitor.
Later he ran to Hong Kong.
After coming to Hong Kong, he formed a "Hong Kong and Kowloon Film and Drama Industry Free Federation" with several filmmakers.
The superior organization of the Liberty Federation is the "Taiwan Information Bureau", which oversees all the literary and artistic front affairs of the Kuomintang in Hong Kong, that is, the right wing.
To this day, any Hong Kong film that wants to be distributed in Taiwan must abide by four principles:
1. It goes without saying that all contact with leftists is prohibited.
2. If a film wants to enter Taiwan, it must first be censored by the Liberty Federation. The Federation will say yes, and then it can pass.
3. Directors and actors must register with the Free Federation, become members, and pay annual membership dues.
4. You must participate unconditionally in some labor and cultural performances organized by the Federation.
Taiwan's 20 million people are the largest market for Hong Kong films. One can imagine how powerful and powerful the Liberty Federation is.
As mentioned before, 99% of Hong Kong filmmakers have no position, only the market.
For example, Cheng Long, Hong Jinbao, and Liu Dehua all went to Kinmen to work in the army. Liu Dehua also performed ceremonial drills in front of the Sun Yat-Sen Memorial Hall, which was very beautiful.
There are also Tony Leung, Eric Tsang, and Ti Lung, who have all made Taiwanese military education films.
In 1988, a film "Eight Star Announcement" was released in Taiwan. The film's main creators: Du Qifeng, Zhou Runfa, Zheng Yuling, Huang Baiming, Zhang Xueyou, Zhong Chuhong, etc., gathered at the mausoleum to express their condolences.
Zheng Yuling burst into laughter at that time.
Because the incident itself is very funny, what feelings can they have towards Comrade Jianfeng? It's all for the market.
Hong Kong films used to pretend to be grandsons in the past, so when facing the mainland market, they acted both pretentious and independent, making money while being weird and arrogant. It’s still the same word, looking for trouble!

Free Association.
Tong Yuejuan is the widow of Zhang Shankun. She was elected president of the General Assembly in 1973 and was also a member of the Taiwan Overseas Chinese Affairs Commission. She worked there until 1993, and then immigrated to Canada.
She used to be a popular female star in Shanghai, and together with Ruan Lingyu and others, she was known as the four sisters in the film industry.
She is 67 years old this year. She still likes to wear cheongsam. Her permed and dyed curly hair is black and shiny, and her makeup is exquisite. She wears a jade necklace of no apparent value around her neck. She holds a cup of coffee in her left hand and a copy of "Wen Wei Po" on her right hand.

"President, how should we handle this matter?"
"What do you think?"
Jiang Fengqi thought for a moment and said: "Xinyi City has always been on good terms with us and will never do anything inappropriate suddenly. I think it is best to find out the truth first."
He is from the China Film Group Corporation in Taiwan. Yes, there is a China Film Group Corporation in Taiwan. He was just transferred to the Free Federation and is Tong Yuejuan's assistant.
Tong Yuejuan felt that this young man was good, capable and visionary, but he was too young and his work was relatively rigid and needed teaching. She said slowly: "Loyalty to the party and the country is not absolute, but it is absolutely disloyal.
It's all thanks to us that New Art City can distribute movies in Taiwan. They received favors, but they secretly hooked up with leftists and even met each other. This photo can't be fake, right?
If we let it go, no one will listen to us in the future!"
"What do you mean?"
"Go there in person, reprimand them face to face, punish them severely, and ask them to write a guarantee that they will never do it again!"
"How to punish?"
"Go ahead, they know what to do."
Jiang Fengqi went out a little confused. Anyway, she just obeyed the order.
He was worshiped by all the filmmakers in Hong Kong, and his food and clothing were luxurious, not to mention a car. He took a car and rushed to Xinyi City Company.
Mai Jia and others were studying this matter when they suddenly heard a report: "Boss, people from the Free Association are here!"
"They can do this faster than anyone else!"
"Just do what we just discussed!"
Mai Jia said angrily, and looked at each other with Shi Tian and Huang Baiming. Huang Baiming slipped out first, and he and Shi Tian stood up to greet them.
"The great guest is here, but you will be welcomed from afar!"
"Boss Mai, Boss Shi...where's Boss Huang?"
"He has something to do and happens to be away. Please take a seat!"
"Forget it, I won't sit down!"
Jiang Fengqi waved her hand, stood still, and said directly: "You are so bold now. Do you think that the company has developed, so you dare to violate principles, waver in position, and not take us and 'President Chiang' seriously?"
"How dare we? We were also deceived and fell into their trap!"
Mai Jia quickly explained.
"There is no need to talk about this. Things were done, we met, and photos were taken.
Even if you fall into the trap, it only proves that you have no brains and have loopholes in your thinking! Otherwise, why would you agree to meet? You must have an opportunistic mentality! Since the establishment of New Art City, I have always taken care of you. Several movies have
Sent to Taiwan, achieved great results, and you have also been able to grow stronger.
This is the kindness of the General Assembly and the kindness of the party and the country. If you dare to be half-hearted, you will know the consequences!"
"Yes yes yes!"
"We admit our mistakes, we are loyal to them, and we will never make them again!"
Mai Jia and Shi Tian lowered their eyebrows, bowed and lowered their hands. They didn't have the slightest demeanor of film industry bosses.
"The General Assembly is very indignant about this matter and ordered Xinyi City to collectively guarantee and write a document to express its repentance..."
Write a letter of guarantee!
99% of Hong Kong filmmakers have written about it these days, and Mai Jia agreed repeatedly. At this moment, Huang Baiming hurried back, carrying a small exquisite suitcase in his hand.
Mai Jia took it, offered it to him with his own hands, and said with an apologetic smile: "Mr. Jiang, we made a mistake, and we deeply feel that we should not have done so. This is our sincerity to the association as a token of our sincerity!"
Jiang Fengqi had never come into contact with this before, so she casually opened it and took a look, then quickly buttoned it up.
He wanted to refuse sternly, but for some reason, there was another voice in his head that was telling him, "Take it, take it," everyone is like this!
"..."
He struggled for two seconds, put the box in his hand, and said: "Remember to write a letter of guarantee. For the sake of your sincerity, I will put in a few good words for you to the president."
"Definitely!"
After sending Jiang Fengqi away, the three of them took a sip together, what the hell!
Mai Jia asked: "How much did you take?"
Huang Baiming made a gesture.
"Why is it one hundred thousand more than usual?" Shi Tian said.
"I'm afraid something will happen! It's always right to give more money."
"You paid too much this time. How much will we have to pay during the Double Ten Festival? How much money does the company make?"
"Then what do you say, I do it for everyone's good!"
"Okay, okay, stop arguing!"
Shi Tian stopped the two of them. They actually had no intention of quarreling, they were just extremely depressed. What kind of nonsense is this? They gave away a piece of money for nothing, and more than that.
All the year round, my wife is so worldly.
