Chapter 44 "The Threesome with Kengkeng"
The recording scene of "The Threesome with Kengkeng".
Host Dou Wentao, Chen Linfeng and Zheng Peifang were sitting at the table chatting.
This is the recording format of the threesome of Kangkeng. They shoot a lot of chat content and cut out the best parts, which is the final film.
Dou Wentao was the first to applaud, "Welcome Chen Linfeng to our trip of three people, Chen Linfeng, is this your first time coming to Hong Kong Island?"
Chen Linfeng said, "I came here once when I was about eight years old. My brother was filming a movie here and I came to see him."
Dou Wentao suddenly said, "Oh, your brother is Shi Xiaolong, he is also a very good actor. An outstanding young actor, I should invite him too."
Zheng Peifang asked, "How did you feel when you came to Hong Kong Island?"
Chen Linfeng thought about the situation at that time, and his face changed. With a smile on his face, he said, "At that time, my brother was filming a movie called "Hua Guolong" with Yuan Biao, and I went to hang out with him on the set. I happened to see Fang Long coming to visit the team, and I even went up and asked for a few photos."
Dou Wentao was very interested, "Fang Long is a big star. You were only 8 years old at that time. Do you have any stories about that time?"
"Fang Long was at his most glorious at that time. As soon as he arrived on the set, many people gathered around him. I looked at him from a distance and felt that he was a real man."
Chen Linfeng lamented that encounter, "I I remember that at that time, I told him that I would definitely become a person like you and let the world know me.”
Dou Wentao Da Le, “Isn’t this the same story as that of Qin Shihuang and Han Gaozu? I have to write this down to see if it will develop in the same way in the future."
He confirmed to Chen Linfeng, "This is big news. I have never heard of a reporter reporting this before. This is your first time. Talk to the outside world once?”
“Yes, no one has asked me about Hong Kong Island before. This is the first time.”
Dou Wentao smiled happily, "So it is good to follow our program. You can always hear the exclusive news behind some celebrities."
He then asked, "Were newborn calves not afraid of tigers at that time? Fang Fang Long was in his prime at that time, and it would be very difficult to catch up with him."
Chen Linfeng smiled, with a serious look on his face, "At that time, I thought that it all depends on the person, and I also had a little youthful spirit. "
Zheng Peifang couldn't help but ask, "I can see that you are very confident. Are all young people in mainland China like this now?"
Dou Wentao answered, "If I were At his age, he can have two novels with sales exceeding one million. Now the new book has sold over one million, right?”
Seeing Chen Linfeng nod, he continued, "If I want to have the results he has now, I don't even have the confidence, I have to inflate."
...
...
Dou Wentao said, "Our program has always been open to chatting. Can you tell us about the turmoil in mainland China about your new book?"
Chen Linfeng didn't say much about this, only saying that some seniors were too I value the significance of literature and have some different opinions on his novels.
Zheng Peifang is dissatisfied with such vague answers. In this program, she likes to expose the mainland's shady stories.
Zheng Peifang asked, "I read your criticism of a certain author's works. She has a lot of content describing the poor, weak, and people at the bottom of the mainland. You don't approve of such content with humanitarian sentiments? "
Chen Linfeng asked, "Is this all there is to write about in China? I just think she is using something extreme and negative to represent the whole country.
I think literature is about telling the right things, exploring what the public cannot express, and telling what the public cannot say, but it is not self-pity, complaining about the past every day, and holding on to some negative content. Ordinary people are happy to see this. "
Zheng Peifang disagreed with this view. She shook her head, "You can't use your own opinions to speculate on other people's writing intentions." Dou Wentao smoothed things over, "Let's not take it personally. Let’s talk about phenomena. Based on my observations over the years, many people are like that writer, describing people in suffering and the sad things they experience.”
He clapped his fingers and took some well-known examples, "For example, "To Live", "Red Sorghum", and "Farewell My Concubine". After these works were adapted into movies, they all won awards internationally. Is this true? It also proves the artistry and necessity of this type of work."
Chen Linfeng pouted, "I always open my wounds and show them to others. Outsiders give praise out of curiosity. Is there anything worth bragging about?
The more I read works like this, the more depressed I feel. I would rather see some positive works that can give people strength, even if they make me sad after reading them. The works of Yile are also good."
Dou Wentao was surprised to hear, "These are works that have won the three major film festival awards. They are great achievements. You are also a writer, so you shouldn't watch such works. Are you feeling something in your heart? I heard that the creator is very sensitive inside. ”
"Because I am very sensitive, the more I watch, the more uncomfortable I feel."
Chen Linfeng said in a joking tone, "I sometimes wonder whether the three major film festivals deliberately select this kind of film festival. Awards are given to works that make people uncomfortable. There are so many artistic films, but there are always some other reasons why such works can win awards."
Zheng Peifang said "ha", "That's what you do. It's too much of a conspiracy theory. The three major film festivals are famous for their objectivity and impartiality."
Dou Wentao also thinks so, "Your view is a bit inconsistent with public opinion."
Chen Linfeng is not here. Tangled in the topic, "I say this just because I feel that the Cold War mentality in the Western world is not over yet, and their cultural offensive is not over yet, and will even get stronger."
Dou Wentao was interested in this, "What about?"
"It goes without saying that movies are soft cultural invasions. One day in the future, the Nobel Prize for Literature will be awarded to someone who can show the ugly side of the Chinese people. I’m not surprised at all by famous writers, such as Bo Yang or Mo Yan.”
Zheng Peifang was very dissatisfied with Chen Linfeng’s inexplicable hostility to the West, “You think too much, the Nobel Prize for Literature is simply not worth it. It will not be distributed to mainland writers."
"Hey, the two opinions are completely opposite," Dou Wentao said, "Pei Fang, do you think mainland writers can't win the Nobel Prize for Literature?"< br>
“Can’t get it.”
He then turned to Chen Linfeng for confirmation, "Do you think it is possible for mainland scholars to win the prize?"
Chen Linfeng said, "In ten or twenty years, China will be large enough to arouse hostility in the West. "
"Okay," Dou Wentao clapped his hands, "Then let's make a promise first. After ten or twenty years, if such a day comes, I will definitely invite you two to come. My show, if this show is still around.
Let’s talk about this topic then.”
Zheng Peifang said angrily, “Then I don’t think there is a chance.”< br>
Chen Linfeng maintained the margin of rebirth, "If such a day comes, I only hope that the winner can have some backbone, learn from Paul Sartre, maintain his purity, and refuse to accept the award."
He looked at it The camera lens said meaningfully,
"If you don't have the backbone to refuse, it can only prove that you write such works not to expose and criticize, but to flatter the Western world."

……
After the recording of the trio of Kangkeng ended, "Interview with Yang Lan" and "Tell Your Story" were next.
These two programs are one-on-one interviews, which are relatively routine. Chen Linfeng completed the recording smoothly.
Finally, as November approached, Chen Linfeng returned to Zheng City and went to school.
