Chapter 454: Plan Leaked
In addition to Zhang Ran's "Three Fools", there are two films by Chinese female directors in the Horizon section, Li Yu's new film "Red Face" and Ning Ying's new film "Infinite Motion". In the exhibition unit www.biquge.info Xu Ke's "Seven Swords" and Chen Kexin's "If Love" became the opening and closing films of this year's Venice Film Festival. In addition, the film "Initial D" starring Jay Chou is also impressively listed.
"The Two of Us" was originally invited to participate in the Horizon unit, but Ma Liwen received an invitation to the Tokyo Film Festival and was the main competition unit. Although the horizon unit belongs to the Venice Film Festival, its influence is limited, while Tokyo is the main competition unit and has more influence, so Ma Liwen gave up Venice and chose to go to Tokyo.
Zhang Ran didn't take the shortlisting to heart, and the entry of "Three Fools" into the main competition unit had already been determined, and there was no surprise to him at all. And there are more important things today, Lin Ying and they are leaving tomorrow, and the whole team will definitely have to have a meal together.
The bidding team's casual meal is not as sentimental as the casual meal in the 01 table, nor is it as enthusiastic as the finale banquet of the movie. In the process of eating, everyone was still talking about the plan, although the bids have been almost made, but everyone is still very dissatisfied, hoping to have better ideas.
During the meal, whether it was Lin Ying, Shen Wei, or Don Michel, they all expressed their gratitude to Zhang Ran, and it was a great happiness to be able to join the bidding team and work with so many excellent people, which also inspired their future creations.
After eating the casual meal, the bidding work came to an end, and Zhang Ran could finally take a breath. When he came back from the hotel, Zhang Ran hugged Zhang Jingchu, who was watching TV on the sofa, and his hands moved: "Little sister, it's developing well, come and let my brother check it!"
Zhang Jingchu slapped Zhang Ran's hand and scolded with a smile: "Where did the pervert come from?"
Zhang Ran said with a serious face: "No way, you are too tempting, and Hui Yanagi can't hold it!" As he spoke, Zhang Ran's movements escalated.
"Well, don't make trouble!" The voice has changed, Zhang Ran has a ghost if he doesn't make trouble, and his movements have intensified and become more in-depth.
"Hmm, you scoundrel!" Zhang Jingchu turned against the guest and pressed Zhang Ran directly on the sofa.
"What are you going to do?" Zhang Ran made a panicked expression.
"This girl wants the overlord to bow hard!" Zhang Jingchuhuo was picked up and began to untie Zhang Ran's belt.
"Yamei Butterfly, Ya Mei Butterfly!"
I didn't want Zhang Ran's pants to take off halfway, and the phone suddenly rang. Zhang Ran picked up his mobile phone and saw that it was Chen Ningyu's phone, why did he call me at this time?
As soon as the phone was connected, Chen Ningyu's shout came: "Zhang Ran, something is wrong!"
Zhang Ran frowned: "What's wrong?"
Chen Ningyu spoke with an obvious trill: "Our bid has been circulated on the Internet, and now it has been circulated on the Internet. ”
At this moment, Zhang Ran's heart almost stopped beating, and the tender was leaked? How is this possible? The entire team has signed a confidentiality agreement with the Olympic Organizing Committee, and they are also very careful about confidentiality, how can it be leaked? He shouted: "Are you sure it's our bid?"
Chen Ningyu's voice trembled violently: "It's checked, it's our bid!
"Wait, I'll take a look on the Internet!" Zhang Ran lifted his pants and walked quickly into the study and turned on the computer. Zhang Jingchu also knew that something was wrong, so she sorted out her clothes and followed her into the study to see if she could help.
Zhang Ran found the leaked tender on the Internet, and the situation was even more serious than he imagined, the entire creative plan was completely leaked, and the five rings display, the nine programs of the three articles of heaven, earth and people, and the ignition plan were not spared. Not only the flow of words, but also the design and 3D animation effects of each idea.
It's over, all the hard work of more than a month has been in vain!
Zhang Ran patted his face vigorously, forced himself to calm down, and then called Chen Ningyu: "The bid is likely to have leaked out from Tiangong Chongcai." Now you immediately call the police and tell the police that we are the targeted solicitation unit of the Olympic Organizing Committee, and that the plan we created for the Olympic Organizing Committee has been leaked, and ask them to find out the truth as soon as possible. Now I'm going to rush to the Shangri-La Hotel, gather the members of the creative team, and come up with a new plan!"
Hanging up the phone, Zhang Ran put his legs and ran outside. He is now in a hurry, the bidding will be closed at 4 pm the day after tomorrow, and now the plan has been leaked, and the whole plan is completely invalid, which is simply terrible!
Zhang Ran opened the car door and was just about to start the car, Zhang Jingchu ran over and pulled the car door: "You are drinking, it is not safe to drive, or I will drive!"
Zhang Ran then remembered that he had drunk, and it was okay to deduct points for drunk driving, the key was to delay time, so he moved his butt to the co-pilot's seat: "Daughter-in-law, open a Shangri-La Hotel!"
Zhang Jingchu didn't speak, started the car, and rushed towards the Shangri-La Hotel.
Zhang Ran was not idle, took out the phone, and began to call the members of the bidding team, telling them that the bid was leaked, and everyone rushed to the hotel conference room as soon as possible to reformulate the plan.
There were no exceptions, everyone who received the call was stunned, the whole team has always paid great attention to confidentiality, how could the tender be leaked? But there is no way to figure it out, the tender has indeed been leaked, and everyone promised to rush to the conference room immediately.
Many of the team members have homes in Beiping, and some of them live far away and need time. But an hour later, the whole team was still there. Everyone looked at the leaked bids and renderings on the projector, and everyone's expressions were very solemn.
The leakage of the bidding plan means that the entire plan is nullified, and the hard work of more than a month is in vain!
Tong Ruirui slammed his fist on the table: "How could the tender be leaked?"
Zhang Ran shook his head: "It's not clear now, I guess it may have leaked out from Tiangong Chongcai." I have already asked Chen Ningyu to call the police, the police will investigate this matter, we don't have time to care about this, we must come up with a new set of plans as soon as possible!"
Don Michelle shook his head helplessly: "It's too late, there are only two days until the deadline!"
"The day after tomorrow, ah, that's not right!" Han Lixun glanced at the time, "Tomorrow at four o'clock in the afternoon, the bidding will be closed, we only have a day and a half, and it is impossible to get a complete plan again!"
"Yes, so many drawings, so many three-dimensional drawings, it is impossible to complete it!" Lin Ying also shook his head.
The entire conference room fell silent, and the air was filled with an oppressive and suffocating atmosphere. The whole plan was all over again, even if it was overtime, it would take three or four days, and now it is only one and a half days, which is simply an impossible task.
The bidding is really hopeless!
"It's really difficult, but are we just giving up?" Zhang Ran stood up, his resolute gaze swept over his face, "After working hard for more than a month, you just gave up, are you willing?"
No one was talking, but everyone was shaking their heads. No one is willing to give up like that, but it's really too late. This is an Olympic bid, and the opponents are Ang Lee, Zhang Yimou, and Chen Kaige, the National Song and Dance Troupe, China's international performance company, and many powerful joint teams.
Zhang Ran understood everyone's thoughts, but he still insisted: "There are many fixed contents of the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games, and these fixed processes do not need to be changed, but the main thing to change is the content of the art show and the ignition ceremony." But even so, it's almost impossible to get out in a day and a half, so we can only reduce the drawings, design drawings, 3D animation effects, these are used as little as possible, or even not used!"
"How can it be done, this kind of opening ceremony plan must be convincing with renderings!"
"Yes, the convincing power of the text description alone will be relatively poor, and it is better not to hand over such a plan!"
Zhang Ran said very resolutely: "We have no other choice, we will definitely not be able to finish the production of a large number of pictures and three-dimensional animation effects, if we can't submit the bids to the Olympic Organizing Committee on time, then we will really lose." Don't forget, we are the Organising Committee of the Olympic Games. If you look at the bidding as a competition, we are guaranteed to be in the final. As long as we can send the bids to the Olympic Organizing Committee as expected, then we have won the opportunity to declare the bid, as long as we can prepare the relevant materials in the next month or so, and can show the real power when the bid, then we still have the opportunity to achieve a reversal and win the final victory!"
Hearing Zhang Ran say this, everyone present came back to their senses, yes, we are the directional solicitation unit of the Olympic Organizing Committee! We are different from ordinary bidders!
Don Michel looked at Zhang Ran and nodded secretly, the most important thing for the director of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games is to be able to bear the matter, to be able to stand up at the critical moment, make the calmest judgment, and be able to lead everyone forward together. Zhang Ran is undoubtedly very good at this.
Zhang Ran said firmly: "My idea is this, the structure is still three articles, so there is no need to redesign the structure, only a few programs need to be replaced, which can save time." It is definitely not possible to take the cultural route, and it is difficult to reach the level of the previous version according to this style, I suggest taking the visual route to show the big feelings, big culture, big imagination, big romance, what do you think?"
"Our plan has been exposed, and even if we come up with a similar version, everyone will not be surprised. Let's change the style, but there will be a surprise!"
"I support going the visual route!"
An hour and a half later, a new bid was decided. The model of the whole program still adopts the structure of heaven, earth and man, with a total of nine programs, three programs in the heavenly chapter "Tai Chi", "Bronze", and "Ni Dress", "The Great Wall Bright Moon", "Spring River Flower Moon Night", "Sinan", and "The Dream of Youth", "Builder", "One Earth", and the ignition plan is Lin Ying's air fire ring.
After the plan was determined, everyone started to work according to the last division of labor, Lin Ying was in charge of the technical plan, Ren Dongsheng was in charge of the budget plan, and Zhang Ran was in charge of the creative plan. The others also performed their own duties, Yi Zhongtian was in charge of copywriting, and Han Lixun was in charge of patterns......
Everyone has an espresso on their desk, and when they get sleepy, they take a few sips and get back to work. Even Don Michelle, pure Americans, at this time, put the eight-hour work week behind and went to work at full strength.
No one complained, no one doubted, and no one wanted to give up, everyone had a belief in their hearts that we were going to win!
At four o'clock in the afternoon, Chen Ningyu called, the police had already cracked the case, and the bid was indeed leaked from the employees of Tiangong Chongcai, and the person had been arrested. As for why this was done, it is unclear.
Zhang Ran breathed a sigh of relief, the mapping work still has to be done by heaven, he really doesn't worry about finding people out, and now it's easy to do if people find them.
After hanging up the phone, Zhang Ran took two sips of coffee and began to work with his head.
From the early hours of the morning to the present, the whole team has not rested, they are all working hard. Even so, by now, only a quarter of the tenders had been completed.
It's a daunting task, and there's no hope in sight!. )
