1979 Golden Age

In the days that followed, Chen Qi received several more experts.

Every time they come, the old gentlemen's faces become more and more uneasy, because they find this film completely unreliable. Especially when they see Puyi, Wanrong, and Wenxiu lying on the same bed and being affectionate, they feel that even the coffin lid of the old Buddha can't hold it down.

In the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed and it is July.

The old gentlemen did not come to visit the set that day, because today's scenes were being filmed in the Forbidden City, so Chen Qi had to go there instead.

The sun was scorching, and there was not a breath of cool air, making people feel irritable. He took a car to the Meridian Gate.

He ordered: "Wait for me here, I'll come out in a while!"

"The car is not allowed to enter?" asked the driver.

"You're not a big G! Wait!"

Chen Qi showed his work ID, entered the Meridian Gate, borrowed a bicycle and started riding. It was empty inside, without a single person, but he had experienced this scene once before when Li Hanxiang was filming, so he didn't have much of a feeling.

My only feeling is that the country really gave face to Bertolucci. During the filming of "The Last Emperor", Queen Elizabeth of the United Kingdom visited China. The Queen wanted to visit the Forbidden City, but was not allowed in because of filming inside.

He rode to the northwest corner first. A few inconspicuous houses were the researchers’ offices. The Zhu family was waiting. “Xiao Chen, come here!”

"You yourself? Where's Mr. Wang?"

"He doesn't want to watch it anymore. The more he watches, the angrier he gets. Today he said he was going to film a scene where Bo Yi and Wan Rong play tennis in the Hall of Supreme Harmony Square. Sigh..."

Zhu Jia sighed, not even bothering to complain, and said: "Xiao Chen, you are so energetic that you have to watch it.

I don’t understand. How about I take you around and see the cultural relics?”

"Let's look at the cultural relics later. I'd better go and visit the class. I have no choice. This is my duty, to communicate with the outside world!"

"Then I'll go with you!"

Old man Zhu Jiapu is very kind.

To be honest, after being baptized by later generations, Chen Qi has also lost his charm towards the Forbidden City.

As the saying goes: "I own everything in the Forbidden City, and I have everything that the Forbidden City has not built!" Do you think everything inside is real? Even the vice president went in.

The two rode their bicycles to the Hall of Supreme Harmony Square.

There was only one scene: Puyi and Wanrong stood on both sides, holding tennis rackets, and Johnston sat on a high shelf in the middle as a referee.

After filming a segment, the troops came in and wanted to expel Bo Yi from the palace.

Zhu Jia couldn't help but said, "You are making up stories again. My First Half of Life clearly states that he was eating fruit and chatting with Wanrong at the time. When he heard the report from the head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, he was so scared that the apples fell to the ground. He called a meeting of important officials, but Johnston was blocked outside by soldiers and didn't go in at all."

"You don't understand that!"

"Hmm? Xiao Chen, do you have any opinions? Tell us about them."

"Okay, listen carefully!"

Chen Qi responded, but suddenly took a step forward and shouted very conspicuously:

“Crack!”

Zhu Jia was stunned. In the past month, he had accompanied several old gentlemen to watch many plays, and they were the ones who expressed their opinions. He always gave advice and looked friendly. Why did he suddenly speak?

"Who? Who's yelling?"

Bertolucci felt that the scene was extremely good, but it was suddenly interrupted, and he immediately became angry.

The Beijing Film Studio staff present at the scene exchanged glances with each other, and it was unclear whether they were excited or worried. It was over, it was over, he was going to scold people again!

"Chen! What are you doing?"

Bertolucci came over angrily and said, "You interrupted a good show. If you don't have something that needs to be resolved, you'd better apologize to me! This is not the behavior of an artist."

"Yes, there must be!"

Chen Qi walked over and said with a smile, "I think your scene doesn't fit Bo Yi's description at all. Since you bought the copyright of the book, why don't you shoot it as it is? Why do you let them play tennis?"

"Oh my god! I'm going crazy!"

"You Chinese are so stubborn that you keep asking the same repetitive question over and over again. I have explained it many times!"

Bertolucci was very angry. He glanced at the Zhu family and said, "They are old and don't understand movies. I tolerate them! But I never thought that you would ask such a question? You disappoint me so much. I thought you were the person who understood the art of film the most in China!"

"Thanks for the compliment, but I'm not sure about your operation. Let me tell you about it. Is it right for you to listen?"

"The translator! I'll speak in Chinese and you translate for him."

Because in your film he is an enlightener, an omniscient person, and a savior. Puyi was enlightened by him and yearned for the Western world. Puyi's bicycle was originally given to him by his own people, but in your film it became a gift from Johnston.

Do you think no one can understand your lens language? You do this kind of thing just to imply that the West is China's savior!"

"What nonsense!"

Bertolucci's inner thoughts seemed to be revealed. His face instantly turned red and he shouted angrily: "Chen! You are an extremely rude and arrogant guy! You are slandering me, you are slandering art! You don't understand art at all!"

"Don't talk to me about art! You keep saying you're making a documentary-style movie, but what the hell did you actually shoot? Puyi took the initiative to collude with the Japanese. He was cruel and inhumane, treacherous and hypocritical. He flattered the Japanese and bullied the people. How much suffering did he bring to the people of Northeast China? What did you shoot?

Your so-called respect for historical facts is just respect for your own imagination; the ceremony you display is just a ceremony you designed yourself!"

"I-No one dares to talk to me like that!"

"Leave immediately, you are not welcome here! You are completely slandering me!"

Bertolucci was furious.

"You haven't won any of the three major European awards or an Oscar, so why are you pretending to be an international director in front of me?"

Chen Qi pressed on, cursing more and more: "You are a guy whose mind is full of naked women. A 19-year-old girl was hurt so badly by you, and you still have the nerve to be complacent here. Is this your art?

You sympathize with an emperor of a feudal dynasty, distort historical facts, ignore the suffering of the lower classes, are full of prejudice against China, and smear our labor reform achievements————You are so worthy of the title of the Italian Communist Party? ! ! "

He cursed and the translator said something.

The whole audience was silent.

The 19-year-old girl refers to the scene when Bertolucci was filming Last Tango in Paris. In one scene, the male lead suddenly pounced on the female lead, used the butter on the bread as lubricant, and forced his way into her body.

The heroine had no idea about this. This was added by Bertolucci at the last minute. His original words were: "I want her to feel it, not to act—"

The female lead did "interpret" the real anger and humiliation, which also left a lifelong shadow, depression, drug addiction, and multiple suicide attempts. And Bertolucci was sentenced to deprivation of his citizenship for 5 years by an Italian court because of this film.

Suspended sentence of 4 months' imprisonment.

Bertolucci couldn't utter a word when he was scolded, but his face turned pale, angry and unbelievable.

He didn't understand how this Chinese man knew everything.

Chen Qi picked up a loud speaker and shouted to the crowd: "People from Beijing Film Studio, get out of here!"

The people at the Beijing Film Studio looked at each other. I don't know who was the first to move, then the second and the third - they really started to clean up. Anyway, given the current situation, the film will definitely not be filmed. If anything goes wrong, Director Chen will be responsible.

And Director Chen really built a building!

"Now you understand, don't you? Why play tennis?"

Chen Qi said something to the Zhu family, then rode away on his bicycle, wobbling along. It’s not a G-Class, but it’s better than a G-Class.

After an unknown amount of time, Bertolucci looked at the bewildered actors who had left the scene halfway and suddenly yelled in anger: "I want to appeal! I want to appeal! I want him to pay the price!

(With Nezha, the box office is too scary!)
