Diamond company shoots commercials, you shoot Titanic

Chapter 79



Li Zhiming glanced at him and smiled helplessly:"The Ministry of Science and Technology wants him to make a film, why are you so nervous?"

Then he turned to Chen Xiao and smiled:"The Ministry of Science and Technology also wants to shoot something……"

Before he could finish his words, he was interrupted by Zhou Wen.

"Wait a minute, Lao Li, the Ministry of Science and Technology... science fiction films? Why are they making films if they don't focus on science and technology? And they are developing fast enough, so there is no need for publicity. Why are you trying to steal our talents?"

Zhou Wen snorted coldly, and then muttered,"You steal our talents and give them back to us, you are really good.……"

The Ministry of Culture has a lot of traditional culture that needs to be promoted, and it can't even film it by itself, and it's pushing such an excellent talent out.

Who is from the Ministry of Science and Technology?

I seriously suspect that Lao Li is turning his elbow outward and abusing his power for personal gain, huh!

Li Zhiming shook his head lightly,"It's not a science fiction film, it's daily life. And the Ministry of Science and Technology wants to cooperate with the Ministry of Culture to shoot it."

Zhou Wen frowned,"Daily life? Documentary?"

"I won't explain it to you anymore," Li Zhiming looked at Chen Xiao,"Director Chen, let me briefly explain it to you."

Chen Xiao nodded,"Well, you go ahead."

Li Zhiming explained:

"As you know, technology has developed too fast in the past two or three decades. In the eyes of the public, scientific and technological personnel spend all day with machines, which gives people a rather cold impression. So the Ministry of Science and Technology hopes to shoot a promotional film to show their human touch."

"The deputy minister watched your film Titanic and thought your portrayal of human emotions was particularly outstanding, so he wanted to invite you to make this film."

"Don't be too broad-minded, focus on the individual. The key is the human touch"

"That's about it. Are you free to have dinner together and talk about the details?"

Chen Xiao nodded slowly while listening, his brain spinning rapidly.

The human touch of science and technology workers...

He had seen"The Wandering Earth" in the system's script library, but this perspective was too big, and it was more like a feeling of unity and unity. And it was not ordinary.

A smaller perspective……

《"Interstellar"?!

The perspective of this film falls on the protagonist, focusing on the emotions between father and daughter that transcend time and space.

This is a suitable perspective, full of humanity.

But it's not too everyday.

People asked to shoot daily life to show humanity.

He shot science and technology workers crossing black holes and transcending time and space to show humanity... well, at least it's full of humanity!

Let's look back at the system tasks, go to the mall to look through the videos, and then decide.

Chen Xiao nodded,"I can, but it would be best if it's early next month."

At the beginning of next month,"Farewell My Concubine" passed the review, and the system tasks were refreshed.

In combination with the system tasks, decide whether to take on the task of the Ministry of Science and Technology

"OK, I'll tell him, you take a good rest first"

……

Chen Xiao returned home, washed up briefly, and went straight to bed.

Go to bed early and get up early, and go to see Jiahe Diamond's year-end bonus tomorrow.

His big villa!

Oh, I'm a little excited.

Calm down and go to sleep!

Just as he was lying on the bed, trying to fall asleep.

On the Internet, the news that"Farewell My Concubine" was completed and the Ministry of Culture had previewed it quickly spread.

After all, Director Li didn't keep the news secret, and only asked not to leak the tragic tone and content.

So, the staff went home and told their relatives and friends, and the news quickly spread to the Internet.

Xiao Xia's circle of friends that"it is estimated to be released after the new year" was also screenshotted and censored and posted online.

However, there was only news on the Internet that the production was completed and it would be broadcast soon, but no clips were circulated.

The long-awaited fans suddenly became anxious.

After the new year?

Then wait for another month.

Fans rushed to the news that they didn't know whether it was true or not, as well as the Weibo of the director and the leading actor, and kept commenting.

"Please release it soon! A trailer is also fine"

"Why not use the seven-day Spring Festival holiday?"

"What a good time to watch Titanic. I watched it three times during the seven-day National Day holiday. It will be released after the Spring Festival. If it turns out to be good, I won't have time to watch it again."

"Opera promotional videos, a traditional culture, should of course be shown during traditional festivals!"

"Strongly request to broadcast during the Spring Festival!"

"Please, please let Director Chen’s new film be released on New Year’s Eve. I want to watch the new film on New Year’s Eve, not the Spring Festival Gala.……"

With the previous"Titanic" as a foundation, fans and even some passers-by have great expectations for Chen Xiao's new film.

Many fans even went to CCTV's Weibo and official customer service to argue, analyze the pros and cons, and expressed their hope that it would be broadcast during the Spring Festival.

After all, in the eyes of fans, Chen Xiao has won the Cannes Palme d'Or, Best Director, and Best Screenplay three major awards, and he has already become a god, right?

With such a status, why can't he squeeze into the Spring Festival schedule?

Now there are more than ten days before the Chinese New Year, and all departments should quickly review and arrange the release!

In addition to fans, some big bloggers and film critics also pretended to be fans and ran to leave messages. It will be released during the Spring Festival so that they can make videos and make money!

As a result, the official Weibo messages of movie channels, opera channels, and major online video platforms have skyrocketed.

"The movies in recent years are really not good. Please, let me watch Director Chen’s new movie during the New Year to cheer myself up."

"Yes, what is being broadcast now is not even on the same level as others, so why keep it?"

"Uh... your fans are so crazy, what if it doesn't look good? Don't forget that this is a promotional video for a Chinese opera."

"If it doesn't look good, just watch it! I believe in his pictures"

"Yes, it’s better than letting me watch money laundering garbage."

Some passers-by saw these comments, thinking about their own Spring Festival movie-watching happiness, and joined in, strongly hoping that Chen Xiao’s new film would be broadcast a few days in advance during the Spring Festival. For a while, not only CCTV, but also the Weibo and public accounts of major video platforms received a large number of comments and private messages.

……

CCTV building, the information center responsible for the official microblog.

In the conference room.

The director of the center, who was working overtime, was holding an emergency meeting online.

The director frowned, staring at the screen of his laptop in front of him, and his eyes swept over the comments that kept popping up under the official microblog.

Fortunately, the hotline was closed three years ago, otherwise the phone would be flooded tonight.

The door of the conference room was pushed open, and a young man walked in.

"Director, I need Director Chen's contact information."

As he said this, he placed a piece of paper with a phone number in front of the director.

The director then used the center's number to call Chen Xiao.

Chen Xiao was half asleep at this time.

Suddenly, the phone rang, he picked up his phone, rubbed his eyes, and answered the call.

A strange voice came from the other end,"Is this Director Chen?"

"Um, who is this?"

"Hello, Director Chen. I am Lu Kang, the director of CCTV Information Center. I would like to ask you, do you know the broadcast time of"Farewell My Concubine"?"

The man on the other side paused, and seemed a little bitter and said:"The number of messages on our various platforms is about to set a record in the second half of the year. It is necessary to reply to the public, so I am sorry to bother you so late."

Chen Xiao yawned.

He only knew that it would be broadcast before the Spring Festival, and the specific time was not determined.

But would the person on the other side be a reporter... Forget it, I won't say anything. It is safest to say nothing.

He answered in a daze:"I am not sure either. Why don't you ask Director Li of the Ministry of Culture?"

On the other side of the phone, the director of the center trembled.

He asked Director Li?

The Information Center is affiliated to the TV station, the TV station is affiliated to the State Administration of Radio, Film, and Television, and the State Administration of Radio, Film, and Television is under the jurisdiction of the Ministry of Culture.

You asked him to ask Director Li...

Not to mention that there is no contact information, even if there is, he would not dare to ask directly.

"Okay, thank you Director Chen. If you have any news, could you please contact me?"

"Well, OK."

The director said sincerely, thanked repeatedly, and then hung up the phone.

The deputy director guessed the result from his tone, held his forehead and sighed,"What should we do? Ignore it?"

The director shook his head and said:

"The number of comments on the official microblog is too high, we can't just ignore it. I will reply and say I will confirm it as soon as possible."

"I will contact the station director now and ask him to contact the General Administration and ask them to review it as soon as possible."

"Strive to show Farewell My Concubine to the public during the Spring Festival》!"
