Chapter 108 Seo Kyung-hyun criticizes "movie gongs and drums"

Xu Jingxian, who showed his talents during the "Cultural Revolution", served as the secretary of the Shanghai Municipal Committee of the Communist Party of China and the deputy director of the Shanghai Revolutionary Committee, and became a well-known "leftist".In fact, he appeared as a "leftist" as early as 1957.At that time, he was only twenty-four years old. Seo Kyung-hyun participated in the criticism of "Movie Drums".On August 4, 1957, Xu Jingxian and Yao Zhengren co-signed and published "Negating Achievements, Changing Direction, and Usurping Leadership——Exposing the Rightist Arguments in the Article "Drums and Drums of Movies"" in Shanghai's "Wen Wei Po".

Xu Jingxian said: Like all right-wing arguments, "The Drums of Movies" fundamentally denies the achievements of movies at first.It puts on a warning attitude, emphasizing the so-called "past experience", "the most important thing is the connection between the movie and the audience, if you lose this, you lose everything."... We not only have to ask: As an expert in film art, as a person who knows the inside story of the film industry, why did he only catch a few films that had a low attendance rate in a certain city, and slander them indiscriminately... In short, Zhong Dianfuzhi deliberately linked the direction of workers, peasants and soldiers with dogmatism and sectarianism, not to help us overcome our shortcomings, but to uproot the direction of workers, peasants and soldiers.We must see through this attempt to throw out the baby in the bath along with the dirty water.

Xu Jingxian's "upper and lower couplets" changed his pen and linked Zhong Dianfu with the "rightists" in Shanghai: Zhong Dianfu's argument has already been practiced by Chen Renbing, the leader of the rightists in Shanghai: the five symposiums held by the Democratic League in Shanghai Film just started from denying the achievements, and further conspired to change the direction and usurp the leadership; Said: "The so-called 'tradition' issue is actually expressed here as a view on people." Therefore, Wu Yin, a rightist, immediately echoed: "My husband is a tradition of Chinese movies." In the Democratic League factory that participated, Meng Junmou was the factory director, and Wu Yin himself and Xiang Kun were the artistic directors. Isn't it very in line with Zhong Dianfu's taste?

"The gongs and drums of the movie" created a miasma in Shanghai; rightists followed the rhythm of the gongs and drums, and the Shanghai film industry was once in trouble.These criminal acts of undermining the cause of socialism have already won applause and applause from the enemy. Taiwan newspapers reprinted "The Drums of Movies" in its entirety. Isn't this article the most powerful evidence of crimes committed against the people?Blow away the black clouds and sweep away the miasma.Now is the time! Xu Jingxian is still using the logic of "whatever the enemy supports, we will oppose".

The author is familiar with Wu Yin's husband Meng Junmou mentioned by Xu Jingxian.Meng Junmou was a major producer in the Shanghai film industry in the 1930s, and he had a deep friendship with Xia Yan. During the "Cultural Revolution", Meng Junmou was regarded as a "black line figure in the 1930s" and was imprisoned in the zoo of a certain film studio for a long time.The zoo was originally used for animals that were photographed.Unexpectedly, the iron cage was used to imprison Meng Junmou, the "tradition of Chinese film".In the twelfth lunar month of winter, Meng Junmou died in that iron cage.

As the "leader of the right wing" in the Chinese film industry, Zhong Dianfu has received massive criticism.At that time, the Ministry of Culture had just built the auditorium of the Ministry of Culture Building on Chaonei Avenue in Beijing, and the first thing "staged" there was a farce criticizing Zhong Dianfu: from August 4, 1957 to September 20 On the 7th, 15 meetings to criticize Zhong Lianfei were held there. Zhong Dianfu had to sit in the front row and "listen attentively" at every criticism meeting.He had to review again and again. On September 19, 1957, "People's Daily" stated in a report entitled "Zhong Dianfu Hates the Party's Literature and Art Causes":

"At the most recent conference, after Zhong Dianfu conducted his third review, Chairman Chen Huangmei pointed out that Zhong Dianfu's review still hadn't changed his position. There are vicious attacks and slanders against the leadership of the Party Central Committee and major policies. Zhong Lianfu should be instructed to honestly and thoroughly explain to the Party." However, in the wave of criticism, there are some people who do not follow the wave: Mr. Mei Lanfang, a famous Peking opera actor, read "The Drum and Drum of Movie" carefully twice.After watching it, he said, "I don't see where the mistake is!"
