Dreams of the Fragrant River

~: Seven hundred and seventy-nine [2 exchan

Under Kang Jianfei's gaze, Anita Mui hesitated and finally said, "Mr. Kang, I am very grateful for your cultivation over the years. Without your help, I might still be singing in the bar now. But my conscience tells me. , I can't turn a blind eye to some things, I have to do my little to help them. I respect your political stance, Mr. Kang, and I don't want you to be difficult, so I decided to leave Pop Records because I'm not fit to stay in the company anymore , it's embarrassing for everyone."

"You believe what the rightist newspapers say, but what the leftist newspapers say is a lie?" Kang Jianfei asked amusingly.

Anita Mui asked back: "American, British, French newspapers, 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 the newspapers is nothing more than sales and popularity. To put it bluntly, it is fame and fortune. What the newspapers say is not necessarily true, it's up to you. Never make a final conclusion about a thing and take it as the truth without seeing it with your own eyes and hearing it with your own ears."

"But that thing really happened." Anita Mui actually wanted to show a lot of facts to refute Kang Jianfei, but she finally refrained from saying it, so as to avoid a deadlock with Kang Jianfei.

Kang Jianfei put down the coffee cup, licked the coffee on his lips and said, "Ten years ago, a group of young entrepreneurs from Hong Kong came to Beijing to petition to separate Hong Kong's sovereignty and governance. Do you know what the final result is?"

"Of course it failed," Anita Mui said.

Kang Jianfei said: "What I want to say is that of those young Hong Kong entrepreneurs who came to Beijing to petition, more than half of them chose to invest and set up factories in the mainland after visiting the mainland. Before they went to the mainland, They have always regarded the mainland government as bandits, believing that their assets will be confiscated after Hong Kong’s return.”

Anita Mui is still stubborn: "Entrepreneurs only need to see profit. It is easy to change their original position."

Kang Jianfei smiled and said, "You are obviously ignoring the main point. What I want to say is that the China in the right-wing newspapers may not be the real China."

Anita Mui was silent. Apparently she didn't think she could 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 position." Kang Jianfei put away his smile and said, "If you really want to leave Pop Records, I will not force it to keep you. But I organized a Hong Kong artist. The exchange group will go to Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou, and Guangzhou for literary and artistic exchanges. I hope you can also participate. You can go and see what the mainland is like, and it will not be too late to make a decision when you come back. "

Kang Jianfei said this for his sake. If Anita Mui still doesn't agree, she really doesn't know how to flatter her. She hesitated and said, "I was 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 unblock."

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 has also donated money to "Operation Oriole."

There are only three staunch democrats in the Hong Kong entertainment industry, Cen Jianxun, Anita Mui, and Deng Guangrong. The latter two actually supported Operation Oriole, and Deng Guangrong even personally came forward to spend money to find gang members to smuggle people.

In Kang Jianfei's view. The behavior of Cen Jianxun and Deng Guangrong is easy to understand. They are both bosses of film companies. It is normal for them to oppose the mainland for the Taiwan market. And Anita Mui was simply fed up. You are just a little singer. You read a few newspapers and listened to other people's tricks, donating money, and performing charity performances. You really think of yourself as a democrat fighter.

At the beginning of May, through the coordination of Kang Jianfei, a 20-member Hong Kong artist exchange group went north to the mainland. The members of these exchange groups are all contracted artists of the Oriental Entertainment Brokerage Company, which has strong resistance to the mainland regime.

Kang Jianfei believes that when the 20-odd people have finished their tour of the mainland, they will return to Hong Kong again. At least half of them will change their hostile attitude towards the mainland.

Misunderstanding stems from lack of communication, at the beginning of reform and opening up. How many Hong Kong businessmen are afraid of being hostile to the mainland, and as a result, they went to the mainland to investigate. One by one they moved their factories to the mainland.

Inside the hotel room.

The old man in his sixties raised his glass and said with a smile: "Mr. Kang, you have done a great thing this time. On behalf of all the comrades in the Hong Kong branch, thank you for supporting our work."

"Where is it, President Zhou, you have praised me badly!" Kang Jianfei lifted his neck and drank the wine.

Kang Jianfei would be much more casual when facing the former director of the Hong Kong branch, Xu, whose bones were so soft that he wanted to please Hong Kong's rich and famous.

But the current President Zhou is different. He participated in the negotiation of the return of Hong Kong and Macau throughout the whole process. In the face of difficulties from British and Portuguese diplomats, he never flinched.

At this time, although President Zhou had a smile on his face, he was calm, neither humble nor arrogant, and his attitude seemed to be as affectionate as Kang Jianfei's elders, but his words were very clear, but in fact he refused. The most rare thing is that from beginning to end, he did not show authority, did not rely on the old to sell the old, and did not deliberately please him. He only put Kang Jianfei on an equal position to communicate, which made it impossible for people to guess his thoughts and actual attitude.

As expected of someone who has been a diplomat for decades and visited all European countries, Kang Jianfei can't figure out the depth of this at all.

President Zhou actually disliked Kang Jianfei's rotten private life, but this did not affect his evaluation of Kang Jianfei. It's not just that Kang Jianfei made money and 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 people who stand up to support the mainland with the banner. What President Zhou sincerely appreciates is the album "Queen's Road East" released by Kang Jianfei during the Spring Festival. The influence of this record on the people of Hong Kong is too great. "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 the love for Hong Kong and self-improvement, "Beijing. Beijing" One Night" aroused Hong Kong people's beautiful imagination of the capital. These catchy songs were 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 the wine glass, President Zhou said: "After the brothers split up, if they don't move around for a long time, they will become unfamiliar. The most lacking thing between Hong Kong and the motherland is communication. Over the years, we have also organized some private and official exchange activities, which have 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, which is also the reason why those comrades of the South China Filmmakers Association have not done their jobs properly. The artist exchange meeting initiated by Mr. Kang this time is very welcome by the comrades of the Ministry of Culture. , so let me take them to say thank you."

"Thanks for not being worthy, what I am doing is just the duty of a Chinese," Kang Jianfei said righteously, "I will continue to promote the exchange of literary and art workers between the two places."

President Zhou said: "It's not just about exchanges. The mainland has experienced a catastrophe for ten years, and the literary and artistic work has been revived after the reform and opening up. Especially in terms of movies, the mainland's movies are far behind the world. Look, it's very shocking."

Kang Jianfei said with a smile: "I have been doing film exchanges between the two places. The creative spirit of mainland films is also worth learning from Hong Kong filmmakers."

President Zhou smiled and nodded, and said, "Does Mr. Kang know well-known writers in Hong Kong?"

"I know some, but I don't have a deep friendship." Kang Jianfei said.

"The comrades from the Ministry of Culture are planning to plan a writers exchange meeting between the two places. I wonder if Mr. Kang can help to get in touch." President Zhou said.

Kang Jianfei said in Tai Chi: "In terms of influence among Hong Kong writers, no one can compare to Mr. Cha. It is best for President Zhou to ask Mr. Cha for help."

President Zhou said: "Mr. Cha loves feathers too much."

Kang Jianfei then remembered that Jin Yong had already retired, and even Ming Pao was going to be sold, so he didn't want to get involved in these troubles.

In response, Kang Jianfei could only smile bitterly: "I'll give it a try."

Ni Kuang will definitely not be invited, his sister Yi Shu will probably not give face, Li Bihua has a good attitude towards the mainland, and Lin Yanni is a petty bourgeoisie...

To be honest, Kang Jianfei really thinks that there is no need for writers in mainland China and Hong Kong to communicate. You can imagine a situation where a writer who writes urban romances communicates with a writer who writes about going to the mountains and the countryside. There are 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 to help him. It is estimated that Kang Jianfei is also a writer, and he is a very popular writer, so he has a certain appeal in the circle of writers in Hong Kong. But Kang Jianfei's main business is directing, and he has no communication with those writers at all.

On the contrary, there are several well-known writers in Kang Jianfei's company. Wen Ruian is now the director of the screenwriting department of Dongfang TV Production Company, Huang Yi is a long-term contracted columnist of "Daily Daily", and Zhang Xiaoxian, who has recently become popular, is also a screenwriter and columnist of Dongshi TV Company. Writers, these three people can be used to recharge.

But these are for later~lightnovelpub.net~ Everything has to wait for him to come back from Cannes. Kang Jianfei has also read a few mainland literature books, and only likes a few mainland writers. The two old masters Ba Jin and Qian Zhongshu are old, and it is estimated that they will not go back and forth to Hong Kong for an exchange meeting. As for the younger generation, Mo Yan and the group of scarred writers, Kang Jianfei had no expectation of them.

There is only one Wang Xiaobo, and his article Kang Jianfei is the most comfortable to read. And Wang Xiaobo doesn't seem to be famous at this time, but it can be used to package it. Since the establishment of Oriental Publishing House, there is still a lack of star writers and works that he has won himself.

"President Zhou, I heard that there is a writer named Wang Xiaobo in the Mainland. I have a friend who is full of praise for his works. Can you invite him to the exchange meeting?" Kang Jianfei asked.

"Is there such a writer? I will inform the comrades in the Ministry of Culture." President Zhou has not even heard the name of Wang Xiaobo.

If it is an exchange meeting organized by the Ministry of Culture, young writers generally do not have the opportunity to participate, but since Kang Jianfei took the initiative to mention it, it does not matter if you add one more person. (To be continued)
