The Bourne Counterattack

Chapter 393 It’s done
The "Big Sword King 5" movie is finally released.

The film was sent to the Bureau of the Ministry of Industry for review.

After the screening in the small screening room.

After watching it, the film censorship committee unanimously agreed that it could be released and successfully obtained a screening license.

This film tells the story of resisting foreign humiliation and overthrowing the feudal rule of the Qing Dynasty, especially the story between Wang Wu and the "Seven Gentlemen of 1898".

This will naturally touch the nerves of some Manchu survivors, old and young, but this is Shanghai, the Wang Puppet Government has not yet been established, and there is no so-called relationship with the Puppet Manchukuo yet.

Although the film contained many stories about the corruption of the Qing Dynasty and the cruelty of loyal people, it finally got a license to show it in the Japanese-occupied area of ​​​​Hongkou.

But it is obviously impossible for the film to be released in Manchukuo.

The puppet emperor would not allow anyone to use movies to smear and slander their ancestors.

Cheng Mo also quietly got two copies of the movie and sent them to his hometown in the northwest through organizational channels.

Moreover, he can grasp the scale of the film himself, avoid those points that are easy to be censored, and will not be caught by others.

Lao Miao called and Shen Mo had something to report.

After obtaining the screening license, it is necessary to organize theater managers and professional film critics to screen the film.

"Having learned the news, he is now following Chen Mingchu, the former assistant secretary of the Shanghai District of our Military Command. Chen Mingchu was summoned by Lin Shiqun yesterday. When he came back, he assigned them tasks and sent people one after another into the concession to monitor and follow Mao, the person in charge of the Workers' Relief Association. "Sir," Shen Mo said, "It seems that they want to attack Mr. Mao."

Especially "The Great Sword King" is now being released in multiple theaters at the same time, with hundreds of copies being made at one time. It is normal for theaters to be stolen and lose one or two copies.

By then, the release in Shanghai should be nearing its end.

Without strong capital and talent reserves, they need to quickly withdraw funds before investing in the next film, otherwise, they will not be able to survive.

Anyway, there is room for maneuver.

This was a way of releasing movies in later generations. Cheng Mo appropriated it to this era, and the effect was naturally excellent. However, some small production companies couldn't follow this method.

Evaluate the film's performance upon release.

Movie copies are very valuable, and whenever a popular movie is released, news of stolen copies is nothing new.

Then there is Xuanfa.

Then if a movie theater in Shanghai or Hong Kong makes a "copy" theft case, the matter will naturally be covered up.

As for, does anyone have any objections?
It's very simple. When his company's movies are censored, he just takes the initiative to avoid them. But how effective is this "avoidance"?

"I know, tell Zhi Zhi to report the situation at any time!" Cheng Mo said in a deep voice. No. 76 conspired to assassinate Mr. Mao. He had been mentally prepared for this, but he did not expect that Chen Mingchu would be responsible for executing this task.

The main reason is that Cheng Mo, the boss, is rich, and he is a member of the Concession Film Review Committee. When his company's movie is released, who will not give him some respect?

Cheng Mo came out of the prison room on the pretext of eating at noon and went to Lao Miao's grocery store.

It is estimated that the copy of this movie will take at least two or three months on the road to arrive.

Only companies with strong financial resources can afford such investment. Even if the film is filmed and cannot be released, it will not affect the company's operations.

Moreover, once the film review is blocked, so much money will be wasted or even lost, which small companies cannot afford.

……

"Zhizhi asked, what would he do if Chen Mingchu ordered him to carry out the assassination mission?" Shen Mo asked.

"Avoid the vital points." Cheng Mo thought carefully and said slowly.

"Understood." Shen Mo nodded. Of course he knew that Mr. Mao was a communist, but this was in Shanghai. It would be a good thing if the concession had more power to fight against the Japanese and puppets.

Even though they were once enemies, they are now natural allies. …

Since No. 76 has the idea of ​​assassinating Mr. Mao, they should implement it soon. The charity sale they are currently holding will start on the weekend.

Of course, Cheng Mo couldn't just sit idly by.

He immediately reminded Tang Tao and asked him to give Senior Brother Wenqiu a warning. It would be best for someone to find a way to remind Mr. Mao and ask him to pay attention to his safety.

That was all he could do.

He and Mr. Mao are not in the same line. Too much interference may easily expose oneself and bring trouble to oneself.

……

Lu Jingshi re-entered the Lone Army Camp and met with Xie Zhongmin to discuss it, and clearly told him that the British had agreed.

The Japanese also said it was okay, but the released personnel could not be reported publicly, and some people were not allowed to be released, mainly officers from the Lone Army Battalion. These Japanese had already mastered the list.

Cheng Mo originally wanted to get one-third of the first batch, but the Japanese did not agree and cut the number to only about sixty people.

Sixty people are just sixty people. Although it is far from the ideal, this step is the beginning, and the next step will be much easier.

Where there is the first batch, there is the second batch.

Cheng Mo didn't want to make a big deal about it, so it was best to do it secretly.

Lu Jingshi brought back a list of sixty people. Cheng Mo saw a few familiar names in it, but there was no one he really wanted to save.

For example, the battalion commander Yang Ruifu also knew that it would be difficult for the officers of the Gujun Camp to get out now. If it was when the Gujun Camp was first built, there would still be a chance, but at that time, he could not persuade Yang Ruifu to follow him. .

According to Cheng Mo's request, he must be given a copy of the information on all freed officers and soldiers, and he must understand and grasp the situation of these people.

Of course, there was also the roster of all the officers and soldiers of the Lone Army Camp. He also took this opportunity to ask someone inside to copy a copy for him and bring it out.

These materials are witnesses of history, and the names of these people should not be forgotten.

Friday night.

The gate of Lone Army Camp is wide open.

Numbers of cars and trucks parked at the door.

The Japanese secret service dispatched personnel, the Political Unit of the Police Department of the Ministry of Industry and Commerce Bureau and the Belarusian Volunteer Team, plus Lu Jingshi on behalf of Chongqing...

Witnessed by all three parties.

Of course, Cheng Mo couldn't come forward. He was just the liaison. He couldn't appear in such a scene.

All sixty officers and soldiers of Gujun Camp took off their military uniforms, voluntarily gave up their military membership, put on civilian clothes, packed their personal belongings and lined up in a long line, slowly walking towards the camp gate.

There are also those who are seriously ill, lying on stretchers, being carried, using crutches, and limping. The most painful thing is that one of the two brothers left and the other stayed...

The more than two hundred remaining people in the camp looked at these departing comrades with solemn faces and silence.

Perhaps this farewell is an eternal farewell.

Lin Shiqun's reaction was fast enough, but he didn't expect that the release of some officers and soldiers of the Gujun Camp would be reached so quickly, and that it would be done so quickly. This efficiency was unprecedented.

The article in this article made Lin Shiqun smell something unusual. He couldn't stop what the Japanese decided, not to mention that Gujun Camp was in the concession. No matter how powerful No. 76 was, he would not dare to break into the concession easily now. thing.

I can only complain and express my dissatisfaction.
