Just as everyone was discussing, Xiao Yuanyang returned to his office. His expression turned from anger to joy. Without a word, he gave Xiao Yunhai a call.
"Yunhai, what are you busy with?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "I'm busy with the music. Bro, did my 'Elite Heroes' pass the review? Heh, it's not that I want to say this, but your film bureau actually dared to make things difficult for my movie. Aren't you courting death? Did that Yang Li get kicked in the head by a donkey? "
Xiao Yuanyang laughed and said, "His head was indeed kicked in the head by a donkey. Now that he's the acting director, he doesn't even know his surname anymore. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "This is called a villain getting ahead. Bro, how many screenings are you going to give my 'Elite Heroes'? "
Xiao Yuanyang laughed and said, "Not a single one. Didn't you say that Yang Li got kicked in the head by a donkey? Yang Li's brain must have been kicked by a donkey, so I'm here to congratulate you. Your 'Elite Martial Heroes' did not pass.
Hearing Xiao Yuanyang's words, Xiao Yunhai was silent for a while before saying, "Very good. This Director Yang is deliberately finding fault with me. What reason did he use to block my movie? "
Xiao Yuanyang said, "The action scenes are too realistic. It's easy to mislead young people. I reckon that after a while, the review department will call you and ask you to re-edit it. Yunhai, what are you going to do? "
Xiao Yunhai sneered and said, "Cut my ass. The most attractive part of 'Elite Heroes' is the showdown of real martial arts. Without that, it wouldn't be 'Elite Heroes'. If that's really the case, I'd rather it not be released. "
Xiao Yuanyang said, "Then your fans will completely explode."
Xiao Yunhai said, "Then let's explode. Once something happens, Yang Li will definitely be the main culprit. Only when he's finished will you have hope. I'm afraid that's what you're thinking right now. "
Xiao Yuanyang laughed and said, "That's right. I won't hide it from you. Yang Li's mistake made me see hope. The key point is you. Yang Li will only be completely finished if this matter becomes an uproar. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "I understand. You should prepare to be your chief. Oh right, our Xiao Family is known as the number one political family. Why did we ignore your matter? If the Old Master or your father were to say something, the position of Director of the Film and Television Bureau wouldn't fall into Yang Li's hands. "
Xiao Yuanyang said, "Sigh, our family doesn't do that. If you can do it, then go ahead. If you can't, then get out. You have to rely on yourself to fight for everything. The family will not step in for you. "
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Old Master is wise."
Xiao Yuanyang said, "Alright, I won't say anymore. It's up to you now."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "Don't worry, I'm the best at causing trouble."
After the call with Xiao Yuanyang, before he could catch his breath, he received a call from the Film and Television Review Department, asking him to go over.
Xiao Yunhai agreed and said to Zhao Wanqing, "Honey, I'm going to the Film and Television Bureau."
Zhao Wanqing said, "Has the movie screening permit been approved?"
Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said, "The Film and Television Bureau thinks that there's a problem with my movie and asked me to rectify it."
"What?" Zhao Wanqing said in surprise, "Did they take the wrong medicine? A movie that's popular all over the world needs to be rectified? That's unbelievable. "
Xiao Yunhai said coldly, "They're playing with fire. I'll go and listen to what they have to say. "
Half an hour later, Xiao Yunhai arrived at the Film and Television Bureau.
The Head of the Review Department, Li Changlong, personally met him.
Xiao Yunhai's current status was not simple. "Valiant Heroes" had sold well all over the world, making him a name for Hua Xia. He was also a billionaire, so Li Changlong did not dare to treat him as an ordinary director.
Xiao Yunhai shook hands with him and said, "Head Li, what's wrong with my movie?"
Li Changlong said, "Mr. Xiao, after our review department's unanimous decision, we think that the fighting scenes in your movie are too realistic and need to be appropriately edited."
"Edited? Head Li, what do you mean by 'edited'? To what extent should it be appropriate? "Xiao Yunhai frowned and asked.
Li Changlong found it difficult to answer. After thinking for a while, he said, "We'll edit it until we think it's appropriate."
Xiao Yunhai directly laughed, saying: "Department Head Li, this joke really isn't funny at all. If a martial arts movie removes fighting scenes, what do you want me to show the audience? I think you've seen my movie. Tell me honestly, what do you think of 'Valiant Heroes'? "
Li Changlong nodded and said, "I have to admit that Mr. Xiao's movie is very good. No wonder it can achieve such good box office results all over the world. However, the situation in Hua Xia is different from other countries, so we have to analyze it in detail. "
Xiao Yunhai said, "Head Li, you're talking to me in a bureaucratic tone. I heard that Director Zhang Xinji is sick and hospitalized, and the acting director is Yang Li, right? "
Li Changlong said, "That's right. But no matter who it is, it has nothing to do with your 'Valiant Heroes'. "
Xiao Yunhai laughed and said, "Head Li, I'm afraid you don't believe what you just said. I'm not a fool. Yang Li has a good relationship with the Vice Head of the Ministry of Culture, Tian Jishang, and Tian Jishang hates me to the core. Therefore, I'm not surprised that 'Valiant Heroes' did not pass the review. Hehe, on the contrary, it would be strange if my movie passed the review so easily. "
Li Changlong said, "Mr. Xiao, we did it according to the rules. We did not receive any instructions from Director Yang or Head Tian." "Head Li.
Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said, "Head Li, 'Valiant Heroes' earned 2.3 billion USD in the box office all over the world. It made Hua Xia's Kung Fu famous all over the world. But you didn't let such a movie pass the review. Do you know that once this matter is spread out, your position as the Head of the Review Department will be replaced? I won't even cut a single part of this movie. Anyway, I've already earned more than 3 billion RMB from it. I don't care if Hua Xia is screened or not. Goodbye. "
After that, Xiao Yunhai stood up and walked out.
When he was about to go out, Xiao Yunhai suddenly stopped. He turned his head and said, "Head Li, listen to my advice. Don't take this matter on your own. It's not something you can handle. Also, you'd better make some preparations to clear your name, lest you accidentally become someone else's scapegoat. "
Xiao Yunhai's last words made Li Changlong's body tremble. He suddenly felt a sense of crisis in his heart.
If 'Valiant Heroes' didn't pass the review, the Head of the Review Department would bear the brunt of it.
It would be fine if there was no problem. But if there was a problem, he would definitely be the scapegoat that Yang Li pulled out.
Now, listening to Xiao Yunhai's tone, it seemed that he wouldn't compromise.
This guy dared to scold the Deputy Head of the Ministry of Culture in front of everyone. There was nothing in the entertainment industry that he didn't dare to do.
Thinking of this, Li Changlong took out a small recording device from the drawer. He turned it on and put it in his pocket. Then, he walked towards Yang Li's office.
When Xiao Yunhai returned home, Zhao Wanqing, who had already returned, went up to him and asked, "Hubby, how was it?"
Xiao Yunhai told her what happened and said, "A Kung Fu movie that deleted the action scenes. Is it still a Kung Fu movie?"
Zhao Wanqing said, "The Film and Television Bureau is really too much. What are you going to do?"
Xiao Yunhai said, "I'm going to blow this matter up. The bigger the better. I'll let the fans decide for me."
Zhao Wanqing frowned and said, "But if you do that, I'm afraid you'll completely offend the Film and Television Bureau."
Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "The current Acting Bureau Chief is Yang Li. This guy doesn't get along with me. Even if I don't offend him, he won't let me off easily. On the contrary, if I use this matter to remove this guy from the position of Bureau Chief, then Brother Yuanyang might be promoted. Once he becomes the Bureau Chief, what do I have to be afraid of? "
Zhao Wanqing nodded and said, "That's true. But you have to be careful. "
Xiao Yunhai kissed her forehead and said, "Don't worry. I know what I'm doing."
Xiao Yunhai turned on his computer and posted a post on his homepage.
"I'm sorry, my dear fans. I have to tell you a very regrettable thing. 'Elite Heroes' might not be released in Hua Xia."
"Today, I went to the Film and Television Bureau and found out that my movie 'Elite Heroes' was stuck. The reason is that the Kung Fu in the movie is too realistic. It might teach the youngsters the wrong things. They wanted me to edit the fighting scenes. Hehe, I rejected this suggestion on the spot. I think they're deliberately looking for trouble. If a Kung Fu movie cuts out the fighting scenes, then I really don't know what to show everyone. 'Elite Heroes' contains more than 20 types of Kung Fu. Every move and style is a unique skill. I really can't bear to cut it out. "
"Yun Huang's productions must be the best. This is the label you gave me. To be honest, although I don't say it, I still care about it. So, whether it's music, novels, dramas, or movies, I will do my best. I only have one goal, and that is to make sure that my works are worthy of these words. Once 'Elite Heroes' is cut, it will definitely lose its standard. Although I know that with you, even if it's not the best, the box office won't be worse than overseas. But I can't get over this in my heart. I don't want to ruin my reputation because of a movie. "
"So, after thinking about it, I finally decided that 'Elite Heroes' will not be released in Hua Xia. I'm sorry to disappoint you. "
