Chapter 971

After Huo Tingxiao led the art team to the mountainous area of ​​Rake, he did not immediately start setting up the scenery, but found the county government, hoping to get their assistance so that the work of setting up the scenery can be completed in the shortest time.

Qingchi County is a small county and many people have never heard of it, but Qingchi officials know Zhang Ran and know that Zhang Ran has the magic of "turning stones into gold". After all, the marriage between tourism and film and television, especially with big directors, can often drive the development of the tourism industry in the filming location. For example, Zhang Ran's movie "The Great Tangshan Earthquake" not only led domestic audiences to enter Tangshan, but also greatly increased Tangshan's popularity overseas.

Zhang Ran's new film will be filmed in Qingchi, which will inevitably attract widespread attention from media at home and abroad. With the screening of the film, the subsequent influence will last for a long time. For Qingchi, it is undoubtedly a gold-plated business card, which is a great thing.

The Qingchi County Government attached great importance to this and immediately convened a meeting of the Standing Committee. At the meeting, the county senior officials proposed that Qingchi should open the east wind to build the film and television cultural industry and drive the development of the local economy. At the meeting, the county leaders unanimously decided to become a special working group to assist in filming, and quickly reported the matter to the Luoyang Municipal Government.

After receiving the report from Qingchi County, the Luoyang Municipal Government attached great importance to it. It urgently convened a Standing Committee meeting and passed a resolution at the meeting to establish a special "Hello, Sun!" Filming Work Coordination Leading Group", with the Municipal Party Committee Propaganda Minister as the group leader and the Deputy Minister of the Municipal Party Committee Propaganda Department as the office director. The city senior official pointed out that all support should be provided as much as possible, the functions of various government departments should be fully utilized, and the filming of movies should be carried out as a political task.

After the meeting, the Municipal Party Committee appointed the Municipal Party Committee Propaganda Minister to Lin'an to express Luoyang's enthusiasm to Century Peak. At the same time, the Municipal Party Committee Office issued a document requiring Qingchi County to quickly establish a "co-auction office" with members being heads of functional departments such as the Finance Bureau Director, Public Security Bureau Director, Meteorological Bureau Director, etc.

After receiving the notice from the municipal party committee, Qingchi County found that the city actually paid more attention than itself. It immediately regarded serving Zhang Ran as the county's top priority and quickly became the "Movie "Hello, Sun!" Qingchi Filming Work Coordination Leading Group". The leading group has offices and four working groups: coordination, publicity, security and logistics. Special personnel were drawn from various functional departments in the county and specially applied for a special fund of 500,000 yuan.

With the strong assistance of the municipal and county governments, Huo Tingxiao and the art team can be said to have people and money, and the scene transformation and construction are proceeding in an orderly manner. Huo Tingxiao has always emphasized to the government that the filming of the film in Qingchi must be kept confidential and no news should be disclosed. The government also pays great attention to the issue of confidentiality.

But just as the scenery setting work was fully promoted, Zhang Ran's news of filming in Qingchi was still exposed to the Internet; and he also uploaded the red-headed document issued by the Qingchi County Government to the Internet.

Zhang Ran's new film has always been very concerned. Both the media and the audience want to know about the information and updates about the movie. However, Zhang Ran's confidentiality work is very good, and no news has been heard. Now that the news that the movie is about to start filming has been exposed, it immediately attracted high attention from the media. Many reporters rushed to Qingchi County crazily.

At the same time, netizens are also talking about Zhang Ran’s new film. The name "Hello, Sun!" has caused a lot of speculation.

"The Peak of the Century has already been said. Zhang Ran's new film is a 3D movie. The name of the movie is also called "Hello Sun!", which must be a science fiction film related to the sun. I remember that Liu Cixin's novel "Chinese Sun" was in the Peak of the Century. Zhang Ran may have made this novel.

"I also like Liu Cixin's "Chinese Sun", which was very encouraging when I first read it. I always thought that Liu Cixin's novels were particularly suitable for Zhang Ran. The characters in Liu Cixin's novels were a bit idealistic, and Zhang Ran was also a bit idealistic. Only he could make the temperament of the characters in the novels!"

"But Zhang Ran and the others went to film in the countryside. There are very few rural dramas in "Chinese Sun". I feel like I want to film "Rural Teacher"!"

After Zhang Ran's new film was exposed, many local netizens rushed to Laoshupo Village and took many photos of the sets and posted them online. This caused many local netizens to worry, and they dissuaded them not to expose them again: "For Qingchi, don't post photos here. If Zhang Ran is angry, it would be a pity!"

"Yes, several actors in "The Flowers of War" were fired because they exposed the information about the movie. You are now sending out the photos of the set, what if the picture doesn't come!"

"Do it quickly and don't turn good things into bad things!"

At the same time, fans who were sensible rushed over from Peking, the Magic City and other places. Many foreigners who spoke standard Mandarin appeared on the streets of Qingchi, and taxi and tricycle business were much better than before. Many passengers from other places jumped into the car and said the same thing: "Go to the place where Zhang Ran filmed!"

In the past, the propaganda departments of the municipal government and county government were neglected places, and few people ran here. But after the news of Zhang Ran's shooting of a movie in Qingchi was exposed, leaders from all over the city and county, all from all over the city, hope that after Zhang Ran came, the propaganda department could arrange time for them to enter the filming site of the movie in order to speak to Zhang Ran.

Yang Ying is a staff member of Qingchi County Government and a die-hard fan of Zhang Ran. After she learned that Zhang Ran was going to Qingchi to shoot a movie, she was so excited that she didn't expect to have the opportunity to meet her idol. After knowing that the county had established a joint filming office, her first reaction was that she wanted to go to the joint filming office. So she found the Organization Department of the County Party Committee and asked to join the joint filming office. As a result, she was scolded by the leaders of the Organization Department of the County Party Committee: "Do you think the joint filming office can be entered as long as you want?"

Yang Ying said with confidence: "Minister Wu, do you know what day Zhang Ran's birthday is? What blood type is it? What type of people do you like, what type of people you hate? Do you hate what kind of things you like? Do you all know these? If you don't even know Zhang Ran's basic hobbies, how can you do a good job in the reception work? But I know all these!"

The Minister of Organization Department was stunned. The more you know the other party when receiving the VIP, the easier it is to do things well. Otherwise, you may offend others and don’t know why. He stared at Yang Fang and said, “Do you really know?”

Yang Ying took out his cell phone and clicked it to the leader: "I am a level 13 member of Zhang Ran! I am an old fan of Zhang Ran. I have been fan of him for ten years. I know all kinds of information and hobbies!"

When the leader saw Yang Ying say this, he knew that what she said was true, and said, "I will say hello to your director later. Recently, you have come to the Associate Filming Office to work! But you are a government staff member, so you must pay attention to your image!"

Yang Ying was so happy to hear that she really joined the association for filming: "I will definitely do my job well!"

Because Zhang Ran leaked the news that he filmed in Qingchi, and it was leaked by the county government staff. Although the person involved had been punished, the Qingchi County Government was still a little nervous, worried that Zhang Ran would not be filmed in Qingchi in anger. Fortunately, five days later, a Weibo post from Zhang Ran made everyone's heart fall.

Zhang Ran wrote on Weibo: "There are a lot of news about my new film in recent days, and everyone is very concerned about the progress of this film. In fact, the movie has been filmed in Lin'an for nearly a month. Next, our crew will rush to Qingchi to shoot some outdoor scenes!"

In order to avoid another similar incident, the county government issued a special notice requiring the crew to keep confidential during filming. Government staff are not allowed to take photos or videos on site, nor are they allowed to disclose any shooting information to the media.

Two days later, Zhang Ran flew to Luoyang with several main creators of the "Year, Month and Day" crew. The crew's large force did not come. He had to wait until the preparations in Luoyang were almost done before coming. The mayor of Luoyang, who had already received the news, rushed to the airport immediately to welcome Zhang Ran and the crew's arrival, which seemed very enthusiastic.

Wang Luodan looked at Zhang Ran who was surrounded by the government official website and looked at the warm faces of government officials. He felt quite emotional. Although Teacher Zhang was still the same Teacher Zhang and had not changed much, he is really a big shot now!

Zhao Fei and the main creator of the crew did not stay in Luoyang for many times, so they went directly to Qingchi County. Real-life shooting and shooting in virtual studios are very different. Many equipment used in virtual studios cannot be used in real-life shooting. For example, the 3D camera is assembled by two cameras, and there are brackets and some other equipment, so it is relatively bulky and it will be more difficult to carry on the shoulders. In the virtual studio shooting, a spider system similar to an industrial robot arm is used, but it cannot be used in the real-life shooting process and can only be operated by drones. Due to the different equipment used, some debugging of the equipment is required.

Zhang Ran and Zhang Jingchu were not in a hurry to go to Qingchi. The municipal government was so enthusiastic and spent so much effort to assist in filming the film. They had to give others face no matter how they were. They were arranged to be in the best hotel in Luoyang. After a short rest, they held a brief meeting with senior officials in Luoyang and the main leaders of the city at the hotel conference center.

The city senior official welcomed Zhang Ran and the crew of "Hello Sun!" and introduced Zhang Ran the situation of Luoyang's economic and social development, especially the development of tourism in the past two years. He pointed out that Luoyang is a famous historical and cultural city with rich tourism resources. Century Peak is an internationally renowned film and television cultural company. The two sides have a broad foundation of cooperation and hope to strengthen cooperation with Century Peak to achieve mutual benefit and win-win results.

With the rapid growth of Century Peak and the launch of the plan to build 8 to 10 theme parks within ten years, almost every time Zhang Ran goes to a city, as long as the local government knows that Zhang Ran is coming, he will basically invite him to meet him, hoping that Century Peak can invest in the local area, and even hope that Century Peak’s theme park can settle.

With too many such talks, Zhang Ran was very experienced when dealing with it. He first expressed his gratitude to the Luoyang Municipal Government for his support for his films, and briefly introduced the situation of Century Peak in cultural tourism investment, research and development, construction and management. Then he said that Luoyang has rich historical and cultural resources, and Century Peak also hopes to enter Luoyang. The company will increase the preliminary preparations for the project to settle in Luoyang, actively make plans and evaluations, and strive to settle down as soon as possible.

In the afternoon of the same day, Zhang Ran and Zhang Jingchu, accompanied by senior officials and mayors, conducted an inspection of Luoyang's tourism and cultural industry. The deputy mayor made a report on the spot with the materials on the exhibition board and introduced the planning situation in detail, the key scenic spots and location traffic in the area.

After listening to the report, Zhang Ran felt that Luoyang is worthy of being a famous historical and cultural city, with too rich tourism and cultural resources, and it is indeed a place worth investing. Of course, it is impossible to invest in such a thing as investment in just a snap of the head. There will definitely be a special team for research and evaluation.

Zhang Ran and Zhang Jingchu stayed in Luoyang for two days, inspected some local tourism and cultural projects, and communicated with the Associate Photography Office. Two days later, accompanied by the Municipal Party Committee Propaganda Minister, two police cars drove the road and headed to Qingchi County in a mighty manner.
