Chapter Ninety-Nine: A Little Trouble

When An Yifei and the others returned to the film crew of "Rain and Clouds", it was only nine days that had passed, just like the rest time of ordinary crew actors, no one thought that these two people had changed the situation in a region. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

After receiving the call from An Yifei, Wendy was like in a dream, and began to be a little skeptical, and after a few calls from Venezuela, she finally smiled: "Oh my God, how did he do it?" ”

The new discovery is a medium-sized oil field, half in Lake Maracaibo and half on land. Wendy began to prepare for the exploration and development of the oil field after obtaining authorization from Anyifei, which is a long process that will take at least a year to produce oil, but the future rewards are huge.

And An Yifei is happily "directing" the rest of the shots, in fact, he is watching Liu Weiqiang's on-site command and learning something, the actual shooting time of this film is not very long, mainly in the production of special effects.

When he returned to Hong Kong, he received an email from Silicon Valley in the United States, which was a short film made by Light & Magic after upgrading its own special effects software, waiting for his evaluation.

Gao Dejian and others over there were playing, and An Yifei was lying under the parasol, squinting his eyes and thinking about his thoughts, although he didn't know how to design software, he had never eaten pork and had seen pigs run. In terms of software upgrades of Light & Magic, he has given a lot of suggestions, although most of them are layman's words, but for the professionals in the company, it is like giving the key to open the treasure trove, which has brought great inspiration.

After watching this short film, An Yifei's evaluation is: "It's okay", at least under today's camera and projection equipment, it can show a real effect.

"Pang Ban" over there is talking to "Qin Mengyao", the tall and handsome Gao Dejian is now getting better and better, although the first role is a villain, but whether it is the original book or An Yifei's script, there is no description of the first master of Mengyuan as hideous and obscene, on the contrary, it is quite graceful and imposing. Standing with Tao Huiming, who is dressed in plain clothes, just by looking at the appearance, you can immediately find the artistic conception that the script wants to express.

An Yifei, who glanced at it, smiled and narrowed his eyes again, "Alas, this Marvel boss is really stubborn, why don't you let me occupy the vast majority of the shares, no, I have to take it down, many movies in the future are from their comics, 60 million is not enough?" Try 80 million, if it doesn't work, let's smash him for 100 million dollars, it's really strange that he can't take it."

Chang Xiaoyuan walked over and whispered in his ear: "Brother Fei, Director Liang Shuyi called, there is an emergency"

……

"Sir, the 15th of next month is the Asian Beauty Contest, there is no problem on the side of the contestants, we selected 21 from the many applicants in this and South Korea, but ......, there are still 3 judges missing, what should I do?"

An Yifei sneered secretly, thinking: "This is the series of those cultural coatings, right?" deliberately wanted to embarrass me", after thinking about it for a while, he replied with a sentence that made Liang Shuyi fall off the microphone at that time: "Director Liang, you issued an announcement that the famous movie star Audrey Hepburn will be the chief judge of this beauty competition"

Liang Shuyi, who quickly picked up the microphone, took a long breath, "Sir, are you sure it's Ms. Audrey Hepburn herself?" ”

After showing a knowing smile, An Yifei replied affirmatively, and once again said the words that made the other party fall off the microphone: "Since this time it includes the contestants, for the sake of fairness, there will also be Miss Seiko Matsumoto, a famous musician and writer, who will also be the chief judge."

Today's Matsumoto Seiko has long been red in the sky, and if Audrey Hepburn has an irrepressible attraction to the older generation, then for the young people of Hong Kong Island and the surrounding area, this appeal is even more irresistible.

Liang Shuyi, who picked up the microphone again, asked in a trembling voice, "Sir, it's still ......, is there anything else?" The implication is to make An Yifei happy, don't always stimulate her so much.

"Well...... plus Mr. Luo Dayou, a famous musician from Taiwan."

When the time entered 1982, Luo Dayou had already entered an explosive period, creating many classics such as "Childhood", "Whether", "The Same Moonlight", etc., which became popular in the Chinese entertainment industry, and many record companies were jealous of An Yifei's fast hands.

"Whew, yes sir. I will let the preparatory team do their best to create a show, please rest assured", Liang Shuyi, who hung up the phone, turned around twice in place, and the excitement in her heart really made her have the urge to yell, and she could only release it with the most suppressive action.

……

The filming of "Rain and Clouds" went unusually smoothly, and the recording of all the shots was completed in less than a month, but the post-production special effects took at least a few months to produce, and An Yifei simply gave Light & Magic more than half a year to let them refine it, and strive to be released simultaneously on Hong Kong Island and the United States in time for the golden period at the end of the year.

Director Liu Weiqiang took the original copy and took An Yifei's Gulfstream business jet to California to supervise and explain the places that need to be expressed with special effects, and the subsequent film will be divided into Chinese and English, dubbed in Phoenix Media and DreamWorks respectively.

And An Yifei is happy to get a talent again, Tan Dun, who just graduated from the Continental Conservatory of Music, he knows that this guy who later dubbed movies such as "Hero" is very talented.

Tan Dun also came to Deep Blue Film and Television City with the mentality of trying, and it was only through the relationship of friends that he was able to enter this huge film and television base. An Yifei, who was anxious about the dubbing of the movie, learned of his arrival by chance, and immediately invited him to join Phoenix Media.

"Mr. An, I still want to go to the United States for further study, I will do my best for the soundtrack of this movie"

"It's okay to further your education, all expenses are counted as companies, what about Columbia University? In the future, you have a very high degree of freedom, just like Miyuki Nakajima in this book, do what you want to do, and when we need your soundtrack, we will go to you, which is also a kind of exercise, isn't it? ”

"That's great, in this way, I'm very willing to work for the company", Tan Dun showed a sincere smile, although his symphony "Lisao" won an international award, but due to financial problems, he could not realize his desire to go to further study, An Yifei's arrangement was timely for him.

Then, An Yifei explained to him the elements he wanted to express through the film "Rain and Clouds", "This film is mainly based on the pure Chinese culture as the background, showing the brilliant culture through the world side of the hero, our country began to communicate with the world as early as the Yin Shang period, and the archaeological community has long discovered the ancient trade road thousands of years earlier than the Han Dynasty's 'Silk Road'." So, please don't be rigid in your music, and show the openness and tolerance of Chinese civilization."

Looking at the other party's gradually lit up eyes, An Yifei continued to invest his chips

"I'll buy you a separate music room in New York, and if you need anything, you can go directly to Wendy, the president of Blackstone Investments."

"Thank you so much, sir. I will do my best for the music of this movie", from the beginning of the plan to deal with it casually, to now sincerely want to create unique film music, Tan Dun's psychology was washed by this frank conversation, and since then he has become a full-time music creator for many An Yifei's blockbuster movies.

Sending off this happy guy, An Yifei is also smiling, he has donated to Columbia University in New York many times, arranging a person to read is a phone call, and this musician is the pride of the Chinese, so he is willing to raise him, the music he created is a treasure of modern Chinese culture, which can be passed down and inherited.

……

Back at Freshwater Hills, Ah Lian and Ah Zhi were both there, and Hong Gu took the film crew to her family's manor in Kent to shoot the scene of the burglary of the oil paintings.

Let his daughter Anqi sit on his lap, An Yifei dialed the phone from the UK, "...... beep", and the answer was from the British housekeeper he hired, "Lister, is Madame there?" ”

"Sir, Madame is ......, and she is taking the crew to make a movie in the collection room, oh, Ms. Hepburn's crew is also here, are you looking for it?"

"Wait a minute", after carrying her daughter out and handing it over to the maid, An Yifei returned to her study, "Lister, let Mrs. answer the phone"

......, "Ah Fei, you're awesome, you actually pulled the angel down our house, oh my god, you know what?" When I saw her, the crew here in Hong Kong was messed up, she was so beautiful, even my heart couldn't stop beating, let alone the men"

"Heh, Ah Hong, you are also beautiful. Did the shoot go well? An Yifei seemed to see Aunt Hong's slightly wild and beautiful face.

"It's a tour, it's very smooth, and I'm a little homesick when I go to Paris, Monaco and other places. How's your movie going? ”

"It's done, and I'm working on post-production special effects. Strive to come back before the 10th of next month, the Asian Beauty Contest will begin. MacLehose is leaving in a few months, I have a lot of things on my hands, and the TV station needs you to be in charge."

"Okay, I'll be able to finish the location this month. Liang Shuyi called yesterday and said that the judges were in some trouble, how to solve it? ”

"What's so hard about this? I'll invite Seiko Matsumoto from Samoto, Luo Oyu from Taijima, and Audrey, and call her to answer the phone, and I'll tell her personally."

Zhong Chuhong also considered the selection of judges, and also thought of inviting Audrey, but felt that she was not enough, so she replied happily when she heard this: "Great, I think such a beautiful Audrey will make Hong Kong Island boil, wait."

......, "Hey Ann, this manor is amazing, are you sure I'll live here in the future?" ”

"Yes, Audrey, you will be its mistress from now on. Tell director Johnson that you've got to come to Hong Kong next month, and there's a beauty pageant on this TV station that's in trouble and needs your help."

"Of course, Ann, in fact, all the filming can be completed this month, I will convey your meaning to Johnson, and when things in Hong Kong are done, I will go back to dubbing"
