Chapter 68: Stay Away
The filming of the TV series is over, but new problems have arisen.
After Kong Sheng was hinted by Zhang Wei that he should not reveal his identity that day, although Kong Sheng didn't want to have any intersection with Zhang Wei again, he still mentioned to Zhang Wei that he would not come to the location to investigate, and told Zhang Wei about the Tao in it, so that Zhang Wei could figure out a way as soon as possible.
Now that the TV series has been completed, although there is still post-production to be made, how to sell the TV series is a problem that needs to be solved urgently. After Kong Sheng's reminder, Zhang Wei immediately contacted Zhang Shilan at that time, explained the matter, and asked Zhang Shilan to contact the film buying departments of each David TV, originally Zhang Wei thought that even if some satellite TV was dissatisfied with his destruction of the unspoken rules in the industry, he would not buy the TV series "Prairie Temple", but there were always one or two satellite TV stations that had a good relationship with him who would take care of it, but after Zhang Wei returned to Yanjing to meet Zhang Shilan, he knew that the seriousness of the matter was far beyond his expectations.
At the beginning, after Zhao Haiyan of the Yanjing Satellite TV Purchasing Department had an accident, Yanjing Satellite TV was reviewed by the higher authorities, which caused a deputy director of Satellite TV, a station director, three department directors and eight middle-level leaders to collectively leave class, which caused a lot of shock in the national radio and television system. Everyone is a system, and it is naturally not difficult to inquire about the beginning and end of this matter, and soon figured out the reason for this, so all David TV made a hidden order not to go to the crew of "Prairie Temple" for investigation at the first time, and this order was also well implemented.
Subsequently, as Zhang Shilan began public relations, Modu Satellite TV, Mango Satellite TV, and Gusu Satellite TV, which had a good cooperative relationship with Zhang Wei, all said that they would wait until the film was completed and then consider it after watching the edited samples, which was also a relief and made Zhang Shilan breathe a sigh of relief, this is the studio's first step work, if it can't be released, it will have a very big impact on the development of the studio. But I don't know why, when the TV series was about to be completed, Zhang Shilan began to contact the three satellite TVs, planning to contact the relationship first, after all, it doesn't take much time to finish, editing, and special effects, and some work still has to be done in front. As a result, this contact was told by the three satellite TV stations that they had already made arrangements for the broadcast of TV dramas in their stations, and they would not consider buying TV series in the past six months.
Zhang Shilan, who got this kind of reply, immediately realized that there was a problem, and hurriedly began to contact the film buying departments of other satellite TVs. But as soon as he heard that the title of the play was "Prairie Temple", the other party's attitude immediately changed, and his tone softened and he was polite. But the change in attitude does not change the fact that various satellite TV stations find various reasons not to buy films, to put it simply, people have a principle for you, and stay away. This situation made Zhang Shilan anxious, so as soon as Zhang Wei came back from the grassland, Zhang Shilan told him about this situation as soon as possible, wanting to see if Zhang Wei had any way.
Faced with this problem, Zhang Wei knew very well what was going on, when he cleaned up Zhao Haiyan, his mentor's son Yu Xiaoguang once called him, and the other party handed him a message through Yu Xiaoguang, hoping that he would stop in moderation. Yu Xiaoguang also persuaded him at the time, saying that the other party was the deputy in charge of the propaganda mouth, and people like Zhang Wei who mixed with performing arts and cultural circles happened to belong to the scope of others' responsibility, and people didn't have to clean you up openly, just secretly signal, and an invisible resistance would be formed to make it difficult for Zhang Wei to move an inch in these two circles. But at that time, Zhang Wei also had a temperament,
I have to fight each other to the end, so it's not surprising that each David TV has this kind of reaction, this must be the guy surnamed Li from a certain department who hinted at the following, even the radio and television headquarters is a unit in charge of others, and it's not a matter of holding a handle if you want a TV series to be released.
For a few days, Zhang Wei didn't come up with a good solution, the satellite TV below didn't dare to offend the superiors, and people did things according to the rules, we don't want to buy your TV series, you can't force you to buy and sell, if Zhang Wei relies on the identity of the security department to force pressure, what will it become, what is the difference between this kind of behavior and people like Zhao Haiyan? But how easy it is to solve the deputy position of a propaganda mouth, people should be arrested, and it is useless to go soft at this time, not to mention that Zhang Wei does not plan to be soft. Zhang Wei even thought that it was a big deal for Lao Tzu to go back to his hometown to plant flowers and grass, and there was nothing wrong with it, but if he wanted me to bow my head, it was absolutely impossible. But it's easy to say, Zhang Wei at this time is no longer in a situation where he is not hungry for the whole family, his studio now has more than 20 models, actors, and singers, and there are all kinds of teachers and administrative staff in the studio.
After thinking about it, Zhang Wei still made a phone call to his teacher's son Yu Xiaoguang to ask for advice, but in the face of this deadlock, Yu Xiaoguang is just a director of the radio and television headquarters, although he has a lot of power in his hands and good network resources, but compared with a deputy department, he is still a little weak. However, Yu Xiaoguang still gave Zhang Wei an idea, that is, to ask Yuan Lao to come forward and directly mention this matter to the boss of the center, maybe he could make Vice Minister Li retreat. But Zhang Wei obviously won't use this method, it's not that he's hypocritical, but that he really doesn't want to owe the Yuan family such a big favor.
Thinking that at the beginning, he saved the life of Yuan Zhengze's grandfather Yuan Lao, and the Yuan family may have made him a promise to make him a member of the National People's Association, which cost me an unknown amount of favor and face, and it can be regarded as repaying Zhang Wei's favor, and then Zhang Wei helped Yuan Zhengze to mention his grandfather Yuan Yixing to regulate his body, so that Yuan Zhengxing's old man's body will no longer suffer from illness for more than ten years, but Yuan Zhengze has also done a lot of things for Zhang Wei, and it can be regarded as a relationship. If it is some trivial matter in ordinary times, Zhang Wei will help Yuan Zhengze for help, because Zhang Wei always has the ability to repay the favor, but Vice Minister Li belongs to the high-level, dealing with such a person, even the Yuan family must be cautious, such a big thing Zhang Wei asked the Yuan family for help, so how can Zhang Wei return this favor?
In these years, favors are better than paper, and the relationship is very good, that is, the general central family helps them do things, and after a long time, this favor will fade, and if there are too many times, it will annoy people, and the good connections will also be consumed, and people in the know will also feel that people who abuse favors are not sensible.
Just when Zhang Wei felt helpless, Minister Zhao of the Ministry of Security was worrying in his office, and in front of Minister Zhao sat the three directors of the sixth, eighth and eleventh bureaus, and their faces were full of solemnity at this moment.
Seeing that the hot tea on the table was getting warmer, Minister Zhao said in a deep voice: "I asked the three of you to come over, so that you all can talk about what to do about this matter, but not to let you be dumb in my office." β
The director of the 11th Bureau is a woman, with an average appearance, and her face is full of stereotypes, and she listened to Minister Zhao
words, he spoke: " Minister, this time the countries sent to snatch the meteorite are all mutants or aliens, ordinary people to participate in this matter is just sacrificing our comrades in vain, and the information of the comrades of the six bureaus in our ministry is basically recorded by foreign intelligence agencies, once we send the elite of the six bureaus to carry out the mission is discovered, this will make our country more passive in foreign relations, don't forget, the last operation in Africa, although we succeeded, but the boss of the diplomatic department took the lawsuit to the governor, so you were approved by the governor for more than half an hour, so we should be cautiousγ My opinion is that I don't get involved in this matter, who knows if that meteorite is really that amazing. β
"Director Yao, I don't like to hear what you say, the three comrades who died in this mission are all the elites of our Eighth Bureau, and they have paid for it with their lives.
Director Yao immediately frowned and said: "Director Xie, you are misinterpreting my meaning, I am considering this issue from the overall situation, and now the friction between us and the United States is becoming more and more serious, if something goes wrong at this juncture, causing the United States to seize our handle, wouldn't it make the comrades on the diplomatic front more passive?"
"Yo, that's a beautiful thing to say, you're so worried about the comrades in the diplomatic department, why don't you just make a report and transfer it to the diplomatic department, why are you staying here?" Xie Mingkun rolled his eyes disdainfully.
Director Yao stood up directly at Xie Mingkun's words, pointed at him and said, "You ......"
"Okay! I'm here to solve the problem, not to complain to each other. Yao Jie, sit down!" Minister Zhao reprimanded the two sternly, then looked at the director of the Sixth Bureau, who had not spoken, and asked, "Wang Zhenyue, you can also talk about it." β
Director Wang listened to his boss's words and said: "Minister Zhao, what Director Yao said is reasonable, our bureau has comrades who carry out this mission, and they are all registered abroad, and it is no problem to defend at home in peacetime, but when you go abroad, once you are discovered, you will be caught if you don't get it right." But just give up that meteorite, not to mention Director Xie, even I am unwilling, not to rush at the strangeness of that meteorite, just for the sacrifice of the three comrades of the Eighth Bureau, we can't bear this tone, so I decided to obey the organizational arrangement. At the same time, I suggest that if you want to send people out, it is better to ask the state to come forward and invite those hidden guys to carry out this mission, so that even if they are caught by the other party, we will not admit it, and this war of words will be fought. If the leader decides not to participate, then we will obey and consider the overall situation. β
"Okay, Wang Zhenyue, what about you kid and me here and the mud?" Minister Zhao pointed at him with his index finger and said: "We are bound to get this meteorite, even if we can't get it, we can't let Europe and the United States get it, otherwise who knows what they will do with this meteorite." So, I think, our first task is to snatch this meteorite, and destroy it when we really can't grab it. Now, there is no need to discuss whether to go or not, think about what should be done about it, and the three of you go down and sum it up, and I will see your execution plan tomorrow morning. β
