h2 Under the gaze of Kang Jianfei, Anita Mui hesitated again and again, and finally couldn't help but said: "Mr. Kang, I am very grateful for your cultivation over the years. Without your help, I might still be singing in the bar. But my conscience tells me
Me, I can't turn a blind eye to certain things, I must do my little bit to help them. I respect your political stance, Mr. Kang, and don't want to make it difficult for you, so I decided to leave Pop Records because I am not suitable to stay here anymore.
The company will be embarrassed by everyone."
"You believe what the right-wing newspapers say, but what the left-wing newspapers say are lies?" Kang Jianfei asked funnyly.
Anita Mui asked: "American, British, French newspapers, and newspapers all over the world are telling lies?"
Kang Jianfei said: "In my eyes, those British and American newspapers are no different from "Next Weekly". The purpose of running a newspaper is nothing more than sales and popularity. To put it bluntly, it is fame and fortune. What is said in the newspaper may not be true. In your case,
Never make a final conclusion about something and accept it as truth without seeing it with your own eyes and hearing it with your own ears."
"But that incident really happened." Anita Mui actually wanted to present a large number of facts to refute Kang Jianfei, but in the end she held back to avoid a confrontation with Kang Jianfei.
Kang Jianfei put down his coffee cup, licked the coffee on his lips and said: "Ten years ago, a Hong Kong young entrepreneur group went to Beijing to petition, hoping to separate Hong Kong's sovereignty and governance. Do you know what the final result will be?"
"Of course it failed." Anita Mui said.
Kang Jianfei said: "What I want to say is that among the young Hong Kong entrepreneurs who went to Beijing to petition, more than half of them chose to invest and set up factories and do business in the mainland after visiting the mainland. And before they went to the mainland,
They have always regarded the mainland government as bandits and believe that their assets will be confiscated after Hong Kong's return."
Anita Mui is still tough: "Entrepreneurs can easily change their original stance as long as they see a profit."
Kang Jianfei laughed and said: "You are obviously ignoring the important point. What I want to say is that the China in the right-wing newspapers may not be the real China."
Anita Mui remained silent, obviously she felt that she could not reason with the stubborn Kang Jianfei.
"You are not the only anti-g artist in the company. I have never asked you to change your stance." Kang Jianfei put away his smile and said, "If you really want to leave Fengxing Records, I will not force you to stay. But I organized a Hong Kong artist
The exchange group will go to Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou for literary and artistic exchanges. I hope you can also participate. You can go and see with your own eyes what the mainland is like, and it won’t be too late to make a decision after you come back.
"
Even after Kang Jianfei mentioned this, Anita Mui would be disrespectful if she still didn't agree. She hesitated and said, "I have been banned from entering the mainland."
"It's okay, I'll clear it up," Kang Jianfei said.
Anita Mui frowned and said, "I'm afraid it won't be easy to clear up."
Kang Jianfei waved his hand and said: "Don't worry, I know what you have done."
Anita Mui's problem is really serious. It's not just as simple as publicly supporting the pro-democracy movement. She also donated money to "Operation Yellow Bird". This kind of behavior can be punished by jail in the mainland.
There are three staunch gangsters in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, Shum Kin-hsun, Anita Mui and Deng Guangrong. The latter two have actually supported Operation Oriole. Deng Guangrong even personally paid money to find gang members to smuggle people in and pick them up.
In Kang Jianfei's view, the behavior of Shun Jianxun and Deng Guangrong is easy to understand. They are both the bosses of film companies. It is normal for them to oppose the mainland for the sake of the Taiwan market. But Anita Mui is just full of food. You are just a little singer. You have watched a few pictures.
The newspaper listened to other people's deception, donated money, and performed charity performances, and really regarded itself as a war fighter.
In early May, through Kang Jianfei's coordination, a Hong Kong artist exchange group of 20 people went north to the mainland. The members of these exchange groups were all artists signed by Oriental Entertainment Management Company who had strong resistance to the mainland regime.
Kang Jianfei believes that when these 20 people return to Hong Kong after visiting the mainland, at least half of them will change their hostile attitude towards the mainland.
The misunderstanding stems from a lack of communication. At the beginning of the reform and opening up, many Hong Kong businessmen were afraid of being hostile to the mainland. As a result, after going to the mainland for inspection, they all moved their factories to the mainland.
…
In a hotel room.
The old man who was over sixty years old raised his glass and said with a smile: "Mr. Kang, you have done a great thing this time. On behalf of all the comrades of the Hong Kong branch, thank you for supporting our work."
"What the hell, President Zhou, you are so complimentary!" Kang Jianfei raised his neck and drank the wine.
Kang Jianfei would be much more casual when faced with the former President Xu of the Hong Kong branch. President Xu was very soft-boned and was so soft that he wanted to please the rich and famous people in Hong Kong.
But the President Zhou in front of him was different. He participated in the entire negotiation of the return of Hong Kong and Macau, and he never flinched in the face of difficulties from British and Portuguese diplomats.
Although President Zhou had a smile on his face at this time, his demeanor was calm, neither arrogant nor arrogant. His attitude seemed to be as affectionate as that of Kang Jianfei's elders, but his words were very clear and his words were very different from others. The most rare thing is that he never wavered from the beginning to the end.
The official authority does not rely on old people to show off, nor does it deliberately try to please. It only puts Kang Jianfei on an equal footing to communicate, making it impossible for people to guess his thoughts and actual attitude.
As expected of a man who had been a diplomat for decades and visited all European countries, Kang Jianfei could not understand the depth of this person at all.
President Zhou actually dislikes Kang Jianfei's corrupt private life, but this does not affect his evaluation of Kang Jianfei. Not only did Kang Jianfei make money and quickly became the richest man in Hong Kong, but more importantly, Kang Jianfei's attitude and influence on the mainland.
Kang Jianfei is not the only Hong Kong person who has stood up unequivocally to support the mainland. President Zhou truly appreciated the album "Queen's Road East" released by Kang Jianfei during the Spring Festival. This album has had a great impact on the people of Hong Kong.
"Capital" praises the reform and opening up policy, "Queen's Road East" supports the return of Hong Kong in 1997, "Pearl of the Orient" sings about the love and self-confidence for Hong Kong, and "One Night in Beijing" inspires Hong Kong people's beautiful imagination of the capital.
These catchy songs are more easily accepted by the Hong Kong public than the propaganda slogans of leftist newspapers. This has always been a shortcoming of Xinhua News Agency's Hong Kong branch and its leftist newspapers.
Putting down his glass of wine, President Zhou said: "After brothers separate, they will become estranged if they don't move around for a long time. The most lacking thing between Hong Kong and the motherland is communication. In recent years, we have also organized some non-governmental and official exchange activities and achieved certain results.
.However, the exchanges between the literary and art circles of the two places have always been limited to the circle of left-wing literary and art workers. This is why the comrades of the South China Filmmakers Association have not done their job well. The comrades of the Ministry of Culture welcomed the artist exchange meeting initiated by Mr. Kang this time.
, so let me take them to say thank you."
"I don't deserve my thanks. I'm just doing my duty as a Chinese," Kang Jianfei said righteously, "I will continue to promote exchanges between literary and artistic workers from both places."
President Zhou said: "It's not just about exchanges. The mainland has experienced ten years of catastrophe, and literary and artistic work was revived only after the reform and opening up. Especially in terms of movies, mainland movies are far behind the world. I have watched several of your special effects blockbusters.
I saw it and it was very shocking.”
Kang Jianfei said with a smile: "I have been engaged in exchanges of films between the two places. The creative spirit of mainland films is also worth learning from Hong Kong filmmakers."
President Zhou smiled, nodded, and said, "Mr. Kang, do you know any well-known writers in Hong Kong?"
"I know a few people, but I don't have a close relationship." Kang Jianfei said.
"Comrades from the Ministry of Culture are planning an exchange meeting between writers from two places. I wonder if Mr. Kang can help us make contact," President Zhou said.
Kang Jianfei practiced Tai Chi and said: "When it comes to influence among Hong Kong writers, no one can compare with Mr. Cha. President Zhou would be best served by asking Mr. Cha for help."
President Zhou said: "Mr. Cha cherishes feathers too much."
Only then did Kang Jianfei remember that Jin Yong had completely retired and even planned to sell Ming Pao, and he didn't want to get involved in these troubles anymore.
In response, Kang Jianfei could only smile bitterly and said: "I'll give it a try."
Ni Kuang will definitely not be invited, and his sister Yi Shu will probably not give him face. Li Bihua has a good attitude towards the mainland, and Lin Yanni is just a petty bourgeoisie...
To be honest, Kang Jianfei really feels that there is no need for writers from mainland China and Hong Kong to communicate. You can imagine a writer who writes urban romance novels communicating with a writer who writes about traveling to the mountains and countryside. They have completely different living environments and experiences that cannot be discussed at all.
Come on, those who write serious literature probably look down on martial arts novelists.
People from the Ministry of Culture asked President Zhou to ask Kang Jianfei for help. They probably thought that Kang Jianfei was also a writer, and a very popular writer, so he had a certain appeal in the Hong Kong writer circle. But Kang Jianfei's main job is directing, and he has nothing to do with those writers.
Communicate.
However, there are several well-known writers in Kang Jianfei's company. Wen Ruian is now the director of the screenwriting department of Oriental Television Production Company, Huang Yi is a long-term contracted columnist for "Tiantian Daily", and Zhang Xiaoxian, who has become popular recently, is also a screenwriter and columnist for Oriental Television Company.
Writers, these three people can be used as supplements.
But these are all things for later, everything will have to wait until he comes back from Cannes. Kang Jianfei has also read a few mainland literature books, and he only likes a few mainland writers. Ba Jin and Qian Zhongshu are older, so they probably
He will not go back and forth to come to Hong Kong for exchange meetings. As for the younger generation, Mo Yan and the group of scar literature writers, Kang Jianfei has no expectations for them.
There is only one Wang Xiaobo, and his article Kang Jianfei is the most comfortable to read. And Wang Xiaobo seems not to be famous at this time, but it can be used to package it. Since the establishment of Oriental Publishing House, there has been a lack of a star writer and work that he can praise.
"President Zhou, I heard that there is a writer named Wang Xiaobo in the Mainland. I have a friend who praises his works very much. Can you invite him to the exchange meeting?" Kang Jianfei asked.
"Is there such a writer? I will inform the comrades from the Ministry of Culture." President Zhou has never even heard of Wang Xiaobo's name.
If it is an exchange meeting organized by the Ministry of Culture, young writers generally have no chance to participate, but since Kang Jianfei took the initiative to bring it up, it doesn't matter if there is one more person. r1152
