1979 Golden Age

#843 - Full responsibility

Except Chen Qi, no one knows what "The Last Emperor" is about.

He's giving away the spoilers in advance now!

Combined with the secretly taken photos, the evidence is irrefutable. The Hong Kong media has dug up "The Last Emperor" thoroughly, stripped down to the bottom, and exposed everything. The Hong Kong media reported it with a melon-eating attitude, and they don't care about history.

Just like Yoshiko Kawashima and Wanrong.

Historically, Wanrong was indeed sent to Manchukuo by Yoshiko Kawashima, but there is no evidence that the two had an affair. The homosexual relationship was fabricated in "The Last Emperor".

The funniest thing is that after The Last Emperor was released, Hong Kong followed suit and filmed a movie called Yoshiko Kawashima, with Anita Mui playing Yoshiko Kawashima and Idy Chan playing Wanrong, and they also copied the movie and added a lesbian scene.

As soon as this report came out, the Hong Kong cultural circle was delighted.

Puncture the lung tube:

"Bertolucci is known as a member of the Italian Communist Party, but he always focuses on women's naked bodies. This is very subtle!"

"What he understood was very strange. He believed that humans should have sex when they are confused, in pain, and even more so when they are happy. Men and women can have sex, men and men, and women and women can have sex. The heroine of Last Tango in Paris was originally set to be a little boy."

"I bet there will be a lot of nudity in The Last Emperor. A threesome is just a small part of it!"

"It seems that the mainland is really open. They even allow this kind of movie to be filmed and give strong support. I hope to send "Sex and Zen" to the mainland for filming."

The Xinhua News Agency branch was so embarrassed that they quickly collected public opinion and sent it to Beijing.

…………

Everyone knows that Chen Qi cursed in public.

Every day after work, Bertolucci would come and slam his head on the table in anger, strongly demanding that the government punish him. But how could such a thing be punished just because he said so? The leaders should investigate and study it.

The articles written by Zhu Jiahui and others played a pioneering role.

What everyone is discussing now is how to shoot "The Last Emperor"? What to shoot? Is it really respectful of historical facts?

At this juncture, Chen Qi's materials were delivered first. He naturally could not write in an entertaining way like the Hong Kong media, and wrote in a serious manner, analyzing in detail the fabricated and distorted facts of "The Last Emperor":

1. The script described Puyi being beaten in the war criminal management center, which was not true. Puyi's life in Fushun was very peaceful, where he learned to be self-reliant, his appetite increased, his long-standing insomnia healed, and he gained some weight.

2. The relationship between Puyi and Wanrong was extremely beautified, and there was a scene where he slept with Wenxiu. In fact, Puyi never slept with his concubines because of his impotence, and the main reason for Wenxiu's divorce was long-term cold violence. Wanrong was placed under house arrest, had an affair with a guard, had her child killed by Puyi, and eventually suffered a mental breakdown.

3. This drama basically does not show the true face of Puyi, who aided and abetted the tyrant, was cruel and merciless, treacherous and hypocritical, flattered the Japanese and bullied the people. Instead, it portrays him as a victim, downplaying his restoration ambitions, active behaviors such as cooperation with Japan, and weakening the complexity of history.

And so on.

Chen Qi wrote several long articles and only mentioned the Western perspective at the end.

That's enough.

For example, labor reform in New China is one of our brilliant achievements. It emphasizes "punishing past crimes to prevent future ones and curing illnesses to save people." It not only punishes crimes, but also focuses on reform and rescue.

Puyi can be said to be the most typical case. The leaders were closely following his entire transformation process. Yet, "The Last Emperor" filmed him being beaten in a management office, creating an image of him as a wronged victim. Did they really think that all the people involved were dead?

This information was circulated to various departments and the leaders all took a look at it.

Bertolucci's coming to China to film was approved by his superiors, and no one else dared to make the decision.

The leader read the document very seriously, and frowned more and more as he read. He picked up the pen and wanted to write a few comments, but he was hesitant.

After a pause, I simply read the next one, which was also about "The Last Emperor" and was sent by the Xinhua News Agency in Hong Kong. Then, there was the popular headline: "Pu Yi, an impotent man, became a great man, Wanrong and Kawashima Yoshiko engaged in homosexuality!"

"Lick toes!"

"Threesome!"

“Very fragrant!”

hiss!

The leader's face also turned green.

The key is that Hong Kong also has photos, which are more authentic. Licking toes, playing tennis, Empress Dowager Cixi's hell... all are nakedly displayed in front of the big leader.

Finally, the leader pondered for a long time and wrote a few instructions.

…………

Only a few days had passed since the incident, and The Last Emperor continued filming. Bertolucci and Thomas continued to put pressure on the relevant departments, and they felt that the effect was good, because Chen Qi never showed up again after that day.

I guess the Chinese government is studying how to deal with it.

“Crack!”

“Do it again!”

I returned to the Beijing Film Studio that day and it was still bustling with people, a crew of more than 200 people, Chinese and English signs, and 25 million US dollars spent, giving off an air of decadence and extravagance.

Chen Kaige came again happily to watch and learn from them.

He didn't know the whole story yet, so he habitually leaned over to Bertolucci and asked, "Director, why did you handle this shot like this?"

"Get out of here!"

When Bertolucci saw that it was him, he suddenly glared at him and cursed: "You are also a hypocrite! Don't pretend in front of me. I will definitely seek justice from him. I don't want to see you either!"

"director……"

"Please leave!" Thomas held out his hand.

"No, this, this?"

Director Chen's face flushed, he felt embarrassed and puzzled, and at this moment, he heard a sudden noise, followed by a group of people rushing in. The leader was a deputy director of the Beijing Film Studio, and a few strangers.

The deputy director shouted first: "Everyone at the Beijing Film Studio, evacuate! Everyone, evacuate!"

"Ah? What happened again?"

"Not filming again?"

There was a commotion immediately, and Thomas got anxious. Just as he was about to go up, he was stopped by someone who said politely, "Excuse me, Mr. Thomas! There are some issues regarding this movie, and I need to have a serious talk with you."

"What about our play?"

"The crew is taking a break for now. We'll continue when the problem is solved!"

When Bertolucci heard this, his already irritable mood was further fueled, and he angrily said: "You can't do this! I am so disappointed in you, you are simply a group of robbers! Do you know how much we will lose if we delay for one day?"

"You, with your big nose, are the old rogue. You keep saying that you are following the standards of a documentary, but you ended up shooting these weird things!" one person cursed.

"This is art! Art!"

"Stop it! We already know what you want to film, why are you still pretending to be so cool!"

"Please cooperate, and stop filming!"

"Everyone get out of the studio!"

…………

at the same time.

Over at the residential building, Chen Qi stretched himself lazily as he walked downstairs and said, "You've come out in just a few days? My achievements have not been in vain."

He ran to the office first and got a document:

"Comrade Chen Qi made a mistake due to... a momentary impulse and made a self-criticism... He has a deep understanding of the Western environment and can take full responsibility and properly handle the matter of The Last Emperor!"
