Chapter 257 Unexpected Mission(1/2)
257 Unexpected mission
Chen Fei already has plans for the next movie, and the relevant preparations are also underway.
However, it was not so urgent at first, but the incident of the Federation changed his mind.
The China Art Workers Federation has just been established, and if you want to make a name for yourself and expand your influence, you must have a real and well-known work.
At this time, several members of the film department all had their own famous works, such as Garco's "Forrest Gump", which is a classic that can be recorded in the history of American films and will be talked about by Americans for a long time.
For example, Lin Chao's "Face Change" is also John Woo's famous work in Hollywood. It is also called "good or "good" and "fame and fortune".
For example, Zhang Dong's "Avatar" is even more amazing. It has completely opened a new era. From then on, 3D movies have become the standard, and other forms of movies have gradually faded out of the historical stage.
To be honest, even Chen Fei envies Zhang Dong a little.
He was originally going to film the movie "Avatar" for himself, but now, he has to take him out in advance just to make the Federation famous.
The other members of the department are so powerful, so naturally Chen Fei cannot fall behind, and he also has to do a big move, so his new movie is also being prepared in full swing.
He originally planned to hold a press conference on October 10th to release relevant information.
The reason why he deliberately kept it absent at the press conference was just to attract the attention of reporters, which made everyone's attention always frozen on them.
As the details of several other directors are gradually disclosed, everyone will find that these directors from the association are really terrifying, and each of their works can cause a sensation.
Since the people below are all so amazing, Chen Fei, as vice president, will definitely make a big splash, so everyone is looking forward to it.
On October 10, 2012, according to the plan, Chen Fei will hold a press conference for the new movie on this day to announce the relevant details of the new movie.
For this day, many people in the company are preparing in full swing.
On October 8, the first working day after the National Day holiday, Chen Fei arrived at the company early.
But Xu Yun was earlier than him.
When he arrived at the office, Xu Yun had already cleaned his office - in fact, there were cleaning aunts in his office every day, but Xu Yun would wipe the desk himself every time - she had wiped the desk and then brewed a cup of tea for Chen Fei.
"Xu Yun, morning!" Chen Fei greeted Xu Yun with a smile.
Xu Yun came over and took his briefcase, smiled and said, "Brother Fei, morning."
Today, Xu Yun dressed very fashionable, with high heels, knee-length skirts, and slim suits, which made her figure look extremely proud. Her hair was made very fashionable and elegant, with a little light makeup on her face and a fragrant body, but her baby face was somewhat inconsistent with her temperament.
"Brother Fei, this is the crew list, please check it out." Chen Fei sat down on the chair. Just after taking a sip of the hot green tea, Xu Yun handed over a list.
This is the list of members of the new crew.
The photographer is still Li Yu and his people, the lighting artist and the makeup artist are art guidance and action guidance, etc., and they are all old employees.
Chen Fei has high requirements in the theater and a high level of work intensity. However, everyone still likes to film with Chen Fei. The main reason is that Chen Fei's crew is better and he won't mention the high salary. Every time a new drama is released, if the box office is good, everyone will have a big red envelope, the more is 30,000 or 40,000 or 50,000 or 6,000 or 50,000 or 6,000.
So everyone likes to film with Chen Fei.
This time the crew members still used the old team members.
As for the actors in the movie...the above has been basically listed, most of them are members of the General Political Department, while other leading actors or female leads are selected from other places.
Chen Fei is different now. As long as he opens his money, even if the salary is a little less, he will still be happy.
With Xu Yun, Chen Fei's workload has been reduced a lot. He gave him instructions on many things, so Xu Yun directly helped him. For example, he made a list of these actors, and Xu Yun and the producers finalized the staff together.
That's why the preparations for the new film are so easy.
At this time, Chen Fei looked at the list and found that there was no problem, so he smiled and nodded.
"Brother Fei..." Xu Yun smiled and was about to say something to him. At this time, the landline rang. Xu Yun hurriedly took three steps and two steps to the phone to pick up the phone: "Hey, hello, Yuhe Entertainment Chen Fei's office!"
In fact, the landline was next to Chen Fei, and he could get it with just raised his hand, but Xu Yun still took the lead in answering the phone. The reason was very simple, because she felt that if it was some inappropriate phone calls, she could just use a evasion with a sentence "Sorry, Brother Fei is not here now." From this point of view, Xu Yun is really very competent.
After hearing this for a second or two, Xu Yun suddenly became serious. Soon, she handed the phone to Chen Fei, covered the microphone with her hands, and whispered: "Brother Fei, Deputy Minister Wang of the Foreign Affairs Department."
Foreign Affairs Ministry? Deputy Minister Wang?
Chen Fei was stunned.
He had dealt with the Ministry of Foreign Affairs before, but he didn't have many times and was not familiar with each other. The department he went to the most was the Ministry of National Defense.
Foreign Affairs Ministry?
I even called the company. Is there anything wrong?
"Hey, Vice Minister Wang, hello, I'm Chen Fei."
"Chen Fei, are you free now? I want to invite you to come to my place."
"Deputy Minister Wang, if I have time, will I come here now?"
"right."
"Okay, then I'll come here now, it may take about an hour to arrive."
After hanging up the phone, Chen Fei stood up and said to Xu Yun while packing his things: "Follow me to the Foreign Affairs Department."
"Okay Brother Fei!" Xu Yun nodded.
The two of them hurriedly left the company.
Xu Yun drove, Chen Fei sat in the back row and rushed to the relevant departments together.
I was lucky today, there was no traffic jam on the road, and it was very smooth all the way. Even the number of red lights I encountered was much less than usual, as if God knew that Chen Fei had important matters.
The two soon arrived at the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Xu Yun was waiting in the car, and Chen Fei walked into the Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
The guards were stunned when they saw it was him, but they still inspected and registered him strictly in accordance with relevant procedures.
Ten minutes later, he came to Deputy Minister Wang's office.
Deputy Minister Wang's secretary personally took Chen Fei upstairs.
"Chen Fei, come and sit down!" Deputy Minister Wang personally greeted Chen Fei, very enthusiastic.
After a few simple greetings, Deputy Minister Wang spoke and explained his intention.
"Chen Fei, that's right. We want to ask you to help make a movie!" said Deputy Minister Wang.
Making a movie?
Chen Fei was stunned.
In fact, he had guesses on the way here, but he was still stunned for a moment when he really said this request from the other party.
But Chen Fei still understood that the other party was really looking for him to make a movie.
This year, the country has been calm and there are not many major events, but the situation abroad... Although the global situation has not changed much, in some small places, especially in Africa, there have been many events.
Of course, the places between Africa are small and far away, so many things that the people in China do not understand. At most, they just heard the news and shouted.
Therefore, after thinking about it, the leaders of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs decided to ask Chen Fei to make a movie and introduce their related work to everyone. On the one hand, they let the people understand the real Africa and make relevant plans before going abroad. On the other hand, they also report their work this year to everyone. Of course, there is another reason, but it cannot be announced.
That's why Vice Minister Wang summoned Chen Fei at this moment.
He told Chen Fei one by one about their requirements and ideas, and also gave some information to Chen Fei.
"Deputy Minister Wang, but I am already preparing to shoot other movies. I originally planned to start filming at November at the latest!" Chen Fei said.
He did not refuse, but since the other party asked him to do things, he naturally had to mention his own difficulties and only wanted to take advantage of the benefits. Although Chen Fei was devoted to the country, he would still consider some benefits for himself.
After hearing Chen Fei's words, Vice Minister Wang nodded and said seriously: "We all know this, so... we didn't plan to bother you, but our job is really too difficult. Most of the directors in China do not have the experience and ability. They can barely do the few that can be done. When they heard our request, they immediately gave up.
After thinking about it, Chen Fei is the most suitable person in China today.
Chen Fei, we know that it is indeed a bit difficult to hand over this task to you, but the situation is special and there is no other good way, so... we still hope you can overcome it and take on this task first.
Don't worry, we will try our best to compensate for your losses, we will try our best to agree to your request, and we will also try our best to provide help in the subsequent screening work and minimize your losses.
Of course, if you really have no choice but to take it, then... let's think of other ways!"
"Okay, Vice Minister Wang, then I will accept this job."
Chen Fei agreed without hesitation.
First of all, he could not refuse.
That was the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and Vice Minister Wang personally communicated with him, and he could not refuse whether it was reasonable or reasonable;
Secondly, because this movie was filmed by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, they will give Chen Fei convenience in many details.
Chen Fei will often go abroad in the future, whether it is filming movies or other things, or for his company and career, he needs to go abroad frequently. As long as he goes abroad, he must often deal with staff or leaders of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Therefore, it is very important to establish a relationship of mutual trust and mutual help.
So Chen Fei chose to agree.
But he had no idea what movie to shoot, where to shoot, and how to shoot it for a while. The reason was very simple, because there were too many choices in his mind.
He frowned and returned to the car.
Seeing him coming, Xu Yun quickly got out of the car, opened the door of the co-pilot for him, and after closing the door, she hurried to the driver's position and got into the car.
She looked at Chen Fei while starting the car: "Brother Fei, is there something wrong?"
"They asked me to help with a movie."
"Make a movie? Now?" Xu Yun's eyes widened.
Chen Fei nodded.
