Chapter 626 What Do I Have to Be Afraid Of?

The pressure is on the film bureau!

Although the mainland version deleted the passionate scenes, it still cannot reflect the nature of "Lust, Caution" itself, which is positioned as a Category III film.

The most important thing is: the good guys died, but the bad guys lived well.

And it was against the serious background of the Anti-Japanese War.

The relationship between men and women in this movie seems extremely improper. It is the relationship between revolutionaries and traitors, and it is ideologically unqualified.

"New World" had a fictional background, but it was never released;

"Slaying the Wolf", in the original version, Ma Jun, played by Donnie Yen, fell to his death in the end, but Wang Bao, played by Sammo Hung, did not die...

The mainland version of "Sha Po Lang" deleted the last paragraph, completely subverting the original version... but it only passed the censorship in this way.

And "Lust, Caution" doesn't have to be like this?

Can the sex scene be deleted and released on a large scale?

In fact, Shen Xudong knows why, the director is Li Min!

A Chinese-language film directed by an Oscar-level director is not allowed to be released in the largest Chinese-speaking market. If there are some comments that "all allies are shocked", they will be very passive. After all, the Olympics will be held next year.

But Shen Xudong is just unhappy...

There is a view that I don’t know if it is true, that is, before magicians perform actions, they often deliberately put some super exaggerated fake actions in front of your eyes to attract your attention and focus on these fake actions... but in the position that you ignore , he secretly tricked Chen Cang under the nose and achieved the trick.

The same goes for "Lust, Caution". On the one hand, the sex scenes do advance the plot; on the other hand, in order to attract the firepower of the scissors, shocking information is quietly hidden under the noses of the General Administration - information that is not convenient for discussion, so it is posted on major On the screen, by the time the publicity announcement came to its senses, it was already a fait accompli.

It’s a bit of a conspiracy theory, but it may not be true!

I heard that the General Administration later took some blocking measures...

But is it really banned?

The so-called ban means not only killing, but also blocking. Do you think that removing her advertisements and deleting her scenes in variety shows is banning her?

The biggest disadvantage of being banned as an actor is that you fade out of the public eye and the audience will have forgotten you when you reappear!

Tang Wei, on the contrary, continued to publish press releases during the period of being "banned", and his popularity rose instead of falling. Countless people who have never watched "Lust, Caution" also know an actor who is willing to give but also very aggrieved...

If he was banned, why could he collaborate with Jacky Cheung on "Moon Over Hennessy" the next year?

In this article, Shen Xudong's main intention is to respond to a group of people's siege on him...

What are the specific consequences after the distribution is completed?

He doesn't know and doesn't want to know...

Well, his mind has shifted to chick flicks. Isn't this about Tang Wei? Then he thought of "BJ Meets Seattle"...

Then, chick flicks came to mind!

Yes, chick flicks.

…

As Shen Xudong's... agent, Chen Xi is very helpless. Recently, she has been questioned about "Lust, Caution". Who makes Shen Xudong so stubborn and refuses to apologize or admit that "Lust, Caution" is an excellent movie...

Now it’s even more outrageous, and they are openly calling for a ‘ban’!

Are you still a literary and artistic worker?

How can you ask for a movie to be banned? Or an Oscar-level movie?

You and the literary and art workers are not of the same mind!

Oh, Shen Xudong's article "To be honest, I think "Lust, Caution" should not be released" was published by a lot of media, triggering heated discussions...

Still scolding Shen Xudong, "The prostitute sees prostitution" and "You don't understand Li Min!" ’

Shen Xudong then posted a second article:

'Inevitably, if a man or woman takes off their clothes, people's eyes will go to the private parts, and then something in the scene will be ignored!

Because voyeurism is a common thing in human nature, and the desire for sex is even more instinctive.

The sex scene in "Lust, Caution" dispelled or distracted the audience's appreciation of the story. As a result, when people discuss "Lust, Caution", the first thing that comes to mind is the sex scene! ’

"In addition, in this movie, the Taiwanese accent is constantly making people laugh, and the supporting characters are silly and silly, and their expressions are out of control. Even if the protagonists have occasional flashes of inspiration, it can be said to be gold mining."

"Can a movie like this win the Golden Lion? I'm very disappointed in Venice!"

There was no lengthy discussion, just a discussion on whether the sex scene was necessary.

By the way, there is a view that Tang can’t act well...

That’s why we need real guns and live ammunition.

Shen Xudong has a lot of fans, and even more movie fans. He has accumulated a lot of hardcore fans over the years. Now he has made it clear that he hates "Lust, Caution" and immediately has a bunch of followers...

Isn’t it easy to find fault?

Not only that, the General Administration also issued a document prohibiting movies from promoting sex scenes:

At present, in China's film and television art circles, there are still many actors and directors who make money and become famous by filming passionate scenes. It seems that "strip shows and passionate scenes in bed" are the only means for them to express their art.

This current is also constantly impacting the traditional cultural concepts of our Chinese people, bringing trouble and confusion to the field of traditional Chinese thoughts and ideologies.

In addition, Director Tong Gang also held a press conference to make it clear that he would further promote classification, but he said, "Film classification needs to be combined with our country's national conditions. The film classification we are discussing must be a classification based on film censorship." ’

The meaning is obvious, you have to pass the review first and then you can be graded...

It doesn’t mean that if it’s rated, you can watch Category III movies…

How about a split?

…

"Tsk, tsk, public opinion has changed so fast. Now, few people are targeting you!"

"…Against me? Why are you targeting me?"

In the car, Shen Xudong asked Chen Xi...

They were going to the venue of the premiere of "Happy Death Day" - Jiahe International Cinema in Chaoyang District, which has 10 screening halls, 7 first-class professional theaters, two dual-machine 3D digital theaters and a luxurious VIP hall …

The flagship store must be more luxurious!

"Happy Death Day" is about to be released, and the company held a premiere directly at Golden Harvest Cinemas. Twenty audience members wearing rabbit masks stood at the entrance of the cinema and took a few photos to create a chilling effect - "Happy Death Day" The rabbit mask worn by the killer in "Happy"...

However, Chen Xi was more concerned about "Lust, Caution". Shen Xudong did not go to the company these days. She thought Xudong was busy arguing.

After all, even Feng Xiaogang said, "This is not a simple love movie. Li Min has more artistic pursuits." ’

Fortunately, the General Administration stepped up and banned the screening of "Lust, Caution", attracting all the firepower...

However, hearing what Shen Xudong meant, it seemed that she had guessed wrong?

"Didn't you curse "Lust, Caution"?"

Shen Xudong waved his hand and said nonchalantly: "A director from another province just scolds me. What can he do to me?"

"This guy is Oscar-level!"

"Oscars are American awards, what does it have to do with us?"

"…You are not afraid?"

"What do I have to be afraid of..."

Chen Xi was curious: "Then what are you doing at home these days?"

"Write something..."
