Chapter 267: On Movies Again

The news that a wealthy father and son died of food poisoning at the same time was quickly covered by other news and did not attract special attention from the public. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

On the way to Los Angeles, An Yifei recalled the information he had received, "The oldest family among them flourished with the Age of Discovery and the Industrial Revolution, and there have been many conflicts before. It's not that I don't want to deal with them, it's that they still have upper echelons that haven't been touched"

Lan Muyi followed his words, "You really have to be calm, this huge force controls a large part of the economic circle on the earth, and if something goes wrong, it will be the people of all countries who are unlucky."

"Mu Yi, this is all good. What worries me most is that, in addition to the economic aspect, these people control the politics of countries and control the semblance of balance. When they encounter problems that are difficult to solve, they will go crazy to start wars to divert contradictions."

She has been a dark fragrance for a long time, and Lan Muyi is not a little girl who doesn't know anything, and nodded in agreement with his statement, "However, over the years, new forces have risen one after another to get rid of their control. We're doing the same thing, and the world will eventually diversify."

……

The perpetrators of the ambush suffered retaliation, and no one knew about it on the surface. But the forces behind it are very clear, and they also know that it is very simple to gather all their strength to defeat An Yifei's economic development momentum, but his incomprehensible means of revenge are terrifying. was also worried that he would be forced to hurry, and the situation would be subtly calmed down again.

The fiber optic cable company under construction is An Yifei's largest investment in the United States, and it has completely blocked the mouths of some politicians.

In this project, An Yifei will invest a lot of money to win the infrastructure before anyone else. The future of the Internet is like the American West that attracts many gold diggers, and what he does is to build bridges on the road to gold and collect tolls for those who dream of making a fortune.

Xiao Ye, who was in the middle of processing the information, transmitted the information that An Yifei needed to him, and on the way to the small town of Visseny, he had already dealt with all the things of the fiber optic cable company.

Lan Muyi would not appear in front of others with him, maintaining her mystery and facilitating access to information in the future, so when she was about to arrive in Los Angeles, she got out of the car and left early.

With the improvement of the intelligence system, An Yifei receives a lot of news every day that is not in front of the public. One of them reassured him completely, saying that IBM had developed a computer with advanced performance, but because of the "difficulty" of production, it was currently limited to internal use.

This news made him take out a more advanced computer, and it was no longer necessary to be secretive to upgrade the special effects company, and it was not a strange thing for a powerful consortium to have a few advanced computers.

The special effects company is having a headache for the film "Independence Day", because there are a lot of special effects involved, and the equipment created by the space is like rain in time.

Employees in the company are workaholics, according to their understanding: "Instead of wronging and spending time chatting with the boss, wouldn't it be better to do more and get results?" ”。 This is taken for granted by the people in charge of ILM down to the employees, and it has become a special corporate culture.

An Yifei didn't care about this, but instead watched with interest as the special effects artists fiddled with the new equipment. What makes him speechless is that this "Independence Day" is now a little different from the original version, the protagonist is no longer the black actor, but Gao Dejian, who is now very popular in Europe and the United States.

It doesn't matter if the actor is him, when he was watching the film there, An Yifei found that the actor who played the actor's wife was Zhou Huimin, who he hadn't seen for a long time. Director Roland was smart and took advantage of the fame of the female singer.

Knowing that the whole company of Light & Magic is not deliberately snubbing itself, this is the atmosphere in the company. Therefore, An Yifei left quietly without care, and then issued a written notice to let them keep the equipment confidential. In fact, this is also redundant, has anyone actually seen the company's special effects equipment in the 21st century? No.

……

"Thank you for your hard work, and I am here with you today. Talk about the development of Hong Kong films in Hollywood, and there are still difficulties that I need to solve?"

From Gao Dejian to director Wu Yusen and others are now based in the United States, because they really don't have time to return to Hong Kong, the new films are almost being filmed one after another.

But An Yifei also knows that the American people's awareness of China is very low. In the 80s, before the Internet, many people in Europe and the United States received news from newspapers and television wearing colored glasses. Many people's perception of Chinese people even stays in the impression of dragging pigtail braids and thin yellow muscles.

With the prosperity of a group of film and television people such as Gao Dejian, An Yifei cannot let them gradually abandon in the uninterrupted filming. Isn't most of the mainland's impression of Europe and the United States also coming from film and television dramas that gradually spread later?

"Sir, despite the efforts of our television network, there are still some Europeans and Americans who do not understand our culture and habits. Ah Jian is indeed popular, but it does not mean that the concept of our Hong Kong film is accepted. It's an obstacle that can't be overcome."

Director Wu Yusen has been in Phoenix Film and DreamWorks for some years, and he knows what his boss wants to do, but it is rare that he finally calmed down and paid attention to the movie, so he was the first to speak and express his inner worries.

Gao Dejian and the other five big men who were originally selected by An Yifei finally refused the title of "Gao Jiaban" and called themselves "An Jiaban".

"Brother Fei, we are very grateful that with your support, we have reached the pinnacle of our lives. But as I continued to make films and films, I felt that I had lost my goal in life. I don't know what it's for. Now we are not short of money, but we always feel like we are missing something."

An Yifei was silent, and after calling other Hong Kong practitioners outside the house, "In this way, there are very few people in the United States." Tomorrow, according to the time difference, Hong Kong is in the daytime, I will hold a meeting to explain what I will do in the future and how to do it. Prepare yells, and say that I asked for it, and all work is suspended."

……

When the venue was decorated, An Yifei personally attended the funeral of the two dead security guards, comforted their families, and gave them a large amount of pensions. Such an attitude instantly raised the morale of the American Blackwater side and bought the hearts of the staff.

"Sherlyn, it's not your fault about this. Don't blame yourself. I know you liked the villa earlier and were reluctant to leave, but now your career is getting bigger and bigger, and there are more watchers. The structure of the manor is conducive to setting up security, so let's move to the manor I bought, where the equipment can withstand the attack of small legions, so I can rest assured."

Xue Lin was still a little in good spirits, "I should have listened to you earlier, moving to the manor, the villa is difficult to defend, this is the main reason for their deaths, alas"

Holding her into his arms, An Yifei patted her on the back, "Take care of yourself, their sacrifice is worthwhile"

After speaking, pulling the woman to sit down, An Yifei talked about work to divert her attention, "After the Internet is built, the media company can be regarded as truly complete. In the past, the use of newspapers, radio stations, etc., to promote products was an excellent experience, which was helpful for the operation of new media. In the future, the hardware part will be separated, but the software part will be merged into your management."

Sure enough, she was attracted by the work problem, and Xue Lin asked, "Ann, I studied computers." If you can really communicate with others from home, office, etc., this platform as a media will change the business model."

"That's right, Sherlyn. In the future, in addition to the PC side, there will also be smartphones, which will combine TV, radio and other functions. In order to prepare for this, it is necessary to involve a lot of experienced practitioners, and it is crucial to do a good job in cultivating and preparing talents."

After speaking, he glanced at Xue Lin, who was slightly better, "The past has passed, it's not good to be entangled in the past, we have to look at the future"

The spirit was obviously shocked, and Xue Lin also knew that it would not work like this, "Understood, Ann, you are always so comforting"

……

Video conference calls are no longer uncommon, and the companies of the entire Ann consortium have been in contact with each other in this way for a long time.

The venue was on the top floor of a building in the town of Visseny, and the video camera and large screen showed the scene inside the Phoenix Building in Hong Kong. Hong Gu, Zhao Yazhi, and many practitioners were waiting there to hold this meeting.

Short-sleeved shirts, neat trousers, pure leather belts, and a watch on his wrist, the simple shape can't hide An Yifei's handsomeness. After scanning the venue with black jewel-like eyes and waving at the people in Hong Kong, the man cut straight to the point.

"I've said a lot about Hong Kong films, and I've always done a good job. In the future, Hong Kong and Deep Blue Film and Television City will become the Hollywood of the East. To do this, culture is the foundation, and without the nourishment of this soil, empty films will be eliminated."

"Phoenix Pictures is rooted in Hong Kong and draws on the nutrients of Chinese culture. Again, Huaxia is not something that the Manchu Qing Dynasty dared to replace after more than 200 years, and the real Chinese spirit is open, inclusive, and enterprising. Therefore, the films we make should not be oppressive and backward. On the contrary, it should show the characteristics of our civilization"

Looking around at the people in the audience and on the screen, An Yifei smiled, "You may have misunderstood what I once said, Hong Kong movies should indeed show advanced thinking and modernity. However, it does not mean that we can only shoot these, in our thousands of years of civilization, there are "Classic of Mountains and Seas", "Getaway" and so on written by our ancestors. They are part of our culture."

"We have countless dynasties, long histories to film. What I want to express is: to use the platform of film to bravely show the brilliant civilization of China, from our beautiful and dazzling costumes, to our awe of nature and ghosts, and yearning for the idea of 'the unity of heaven and man'. Show it to the people of Europe and the United States who are barren in history, and trample under their feet negative comments such as pigtail braids" (To be continued. )
