The online shopping platform “AsOne” originally planned to hold a movie booking event on the evening of June 4 was “cancelled”. The platform quoted Gao Xian Films on its Facebook page today (May 31), saying that it had received “strong advice” from “industry representatives” that June 4th was a sensitive day and that gatherings should be avoided, so it decided to reschedule the film that night. The three private events of the documentary “Not yet finished” have been cancelled. The director of the film expressed regret and pity for this, “I look forward to seeing you in the future.”
“Ruyi AsOne” was originally scheduled to hold the “June 4th Night, Ruyi Gathering with You: Gao Xianwatching “The Movie Is Not Finished” and Director’s Post-screening Talk” on the evening of June 4, to watch the Hong Kong-produced documentary ” Not yet finished”, a total of 74 places.
However, “Ruyi” quoted Gao Xian Cinema on the fb page as saying that Gao Xian received a “reminder” from “industry representatives” that the event was a sensitive day and that gatherings should be avoided, so after consideration, he decided to cancel the booking. “Ruyi” means that it is not yet known whether the event can be rescheduled, but applicants have been notified one by one and will communicate with Gao Xian later.
“Ruyi”: The government behaves strangely
Zhu Jiangwei, the person in charge of “Ruyi”, replied to “Yahoo News”, saying that it was absurd to cancel the booking event on June 4, describing it as a “strange behavior” by the government in a society without democracy, “What do you think? It’s okay, you shouldn’t stop people, but you’re going to be on these special days, reminding people that they’re special.” He continued that the platform did not intentionally set the event on June 4th, “I gave the director 4 or 5 days, but they said that the weekend is first served, not especially for June 4th.”
Xu Dailing, the director of “Not Ended”, said in an inquiry from “Yahoo News” that he felt very regretful and regrettable that the film could not be screened at Gao Xian Cinema on June 4. She pointed out that since the film started showing in April, every weekend has been a popular time for audiences to watch movies. The two directors can only come to thank the votes and communicate with the audience on weekends. “I look forward to seeing you in the future.” “Yahoo News” is inquiring about Gao Xian.
The movie “Not Ended” that was canceled this time is co-directed by Xu Dailing, the former director of “The Sonorous Set” and Qi Kaida, the co-founder of “Live Hong Kong”. (Harry Odell), experience and contribution to Hong Kong entertainment culture.
