Chapter 153: Blocked
Lin Zhimo likes acting very much, and in the process of playing a different role, Lin Zhimo seems to have experienced the joys, sorrows, and sorrows of those characters, cheering for their joy and feeling sad for their sadness.
And if he meets an actor who has an opponent in chess in the process of acting, it will be a great joy for Lin Zhimo, and this is the case now.
In one movie, Gong Li and Leung Jiahui, the two major actors, Lin Zhimo trembled with excitement when he thought that he had the opportunity to play on the same stage with them.
Two days later, Lin Zhimo signed a contract, but the filming of this drama will have to wait for a while, probably around April.
……
"Sister Wen, didn't you invite me to this year's Spring Festival Gala?" Lin Zhimo asked Huo Xiwen.
As the New Year gets closer and closer, there will always be some media reports from time to time that a certain singer is going to the Spring Festival Gala, and a certain singer has received an invitation and other news, but Lin Zhimo, who has been on the Spring Festival Gala for two consecutive years, has not heard from him so far, although Lin Zhimo's current fame no longer needs the stage of the Spring Festival Gala, but Lin Zhimo still inevitably flashed a trace of loss in his heart.
"No, maybe it's because CCTV changed its director this year." Huo Xiwen said guessingly.
No one can say what it is, after all, CCTV already belongs to the national political axe and political axe department, although it is also a media organization, but compared with those city and provincial stations, it still seems bureaucratic, including the chief director of the Spring Festival Gala, when selecting people, he also has to consider some issues that stars will never notice.
"Forget it, if you don't have an invitation, you won't be invited, just go home and accompany my parents." Lin Zhimo can think about it.
"Uncle and aunt, do they live in Yanjing or Northwest now?" Huo Xiwen asked, thinking in his heart that if Lin Zhimo's family still lived in Yanjing, he might be able to take the opportunity of the New Year to pay a New Year's greeting. Thinking of this, I don't know why my face suddenly turned rosy.
Lin Zhimo didn't know what Huo Xiwen was thinking, so he replied casually: "I still live in Yanjing, my grandfather originally wanted to go back to his hometown for the New Year, but he was persuaded by me to come down." ”
"Oh." Huo Xiwen replied softly, and began to wonder what kind of gifts should be sent to Lin Zhimo's family.
The two fell silent for a while, and suddenly Lin Zhimo's mobile phone rang.
Lin Zhimo saw that it was Wang Xiaoshuai.
"Brother Wang, why do you have time to call me, has the film been cut?" Lin Zhimo said with a smile.
"Alas, brother, my brother has affected you this time." Wang Xiaoshuai said apologetically with some frustration.
"What's the matter, Brother Wang, where did you start talking about this, when did you get involved with me?" Lin Zhimo was a little confused by Wang Xiaoshuai's words.
"It's the '17-year-old bicycle', this film was cut last week, and I thought I would tell you after passing the review of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, and the result was ...... Alas! Wang Xiaoshuai suddenly couldn't say anything anymore when he said this, just sighed.
"No, Brother Wang, Brother Wang! You can make it clear to me, why can't I understand it? Why didn't the film pass the review, at most let's delete a few shots? Besides, what does this have to do with me? Lin Zhimo was anxious by Wang Xiaoshuai.
Huo Xiwen, who was on the side, also raised his head when he heard Lin Zhimo's words, and looked at Lin Zhimo with attention.
Wang Xiaoshuai took a deep breath over there before saying: "It's not a matter of deleting one or two scenes, the main theme of the whole film is wrong!" ”
Lin Zhimo couldn't help but be stunned: "The main theme is wrong?" The State Administration of Radio, Film and Television doesn't mean that we expose too much of the dark side of society, right? ”
Not really, but partly for that. The main reason is that our movies are not in line with the current Olympic bidding environment! They said that if it is broadcast, it will make foreign countries have doubts about the modernization of our Yanjing City. Wang Xiaoshuai was also a little crying and laughing when he said this reason.
Lin Zhimo was even more stunned, how could he not understand that this would affect the Olympic bid, how could a movie affect the Olympic bid?
Under the anger, Lin Zhimo's voice couldn't help but get louder: "Brother Wang, what's going on?" ”
Wang Xiaoshuai also understands Lin Zhimo's anger, when he first learned the news a few days ago, he was even more excessive than Lin Zhimo, and he directly smashed the things in his hand.
With another wry smile, Wang Xiaoshuai said: "What else can it be, those big men don't do all day long, they will pick bones in the eggs, maybe who wants to rely on this knotting to lead." ”
"Ba ...... Leader of the stammer? Lin Zhimo's mind couldn't turn around, "Can you kill our movie and lead it?" ”
"Hehe, Zhimo, you don't know much about this business. The above indicators are to promote the Olympic bid, but there is no film to promote the Olympic bid, so what should I do? If you can't find it, doesn't it mean that you don't have the ability? Well, it's the opposite, I can't find the propaganda but I can find the slander, find a few films that have an adverse impact on the Olympic bid and kill them, which can be regarded as a lack of merit, maybe it can be regarded as a small credit. Wang Xiaoshuai's tone was full of sarcasm.
Lin Zhimo gradually calmed down at this time, since the matter had happened, whether it was good or bad, he could only accept it.
After being silent for a while, Lin Zhimo asked calmly: "Then Brother Wang, why did you say that it affected me?" ”
Wang Xiaoshuai sighed again: "This is also the news I just got, CCTV originally planned to invite you to the Spring Festival Gala, but because of our movie, your name was crossed out again." ”
Lin Zhimo only then wanted to understand the cause and effect of this matter, but what was the use of thinking about it, he could only endure it, after all, Wang Xiaoshuai's influence in the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television was much greater than him.
After hanging up the phone, Huo Xiwen asked with concern: "Zhimo, what's wrong?" ”
Lin Zhimo sat on the sofa, and then told Huo Xiwen everything just now.
Huo Xiwen didn't have a solution after hearing this, and suddenly she remembered someone and asked a little excitedly: "Zhimo, don't you have a good relationship with Director Yuan Delong, why don't you call him and ask him, no matter what the result is, it's better than now." ”
Lin Zhimo's eyes lit up when he heard this, he slapped his thigh and sat up from the sofa excitedly, and then said to Huo Xiwen: "Sister Wen, you are really my Zhuge Liang, why didn't I think of Director Yuan." ”
Huo Xiwen pursed his lips and smiled: "You are just a fan of the authorities." ”
Lin Zhimo didn't care about this, approached Huo Xiwen and kissed her deeply on the cheek, and then smiled: "I'll call Director Yuan and ask." ”
Looking at Lin Zhimo, who was excitedly making a call, Huo Xiwen's face showed a touch of sweetness, and he was still very happy that he could help Lin Zhimo Huo Xiwen.
"Hey, Director Yuan, I'm Zhimo...... I have something I would like to ask you about. Lin Zhimo said respectfully.
If there was no strong recommendation from Yuan Delong, Lin Zhimo would not have had the opportunity to participate in the Spring Festival Gala, and then he would not have had the opportunity to be discovered by Zhang Yimou, and then he would not have had the opportunity to meet Zhang Ziyi, let alone take over the filming of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", so Lin Zhimo has always maintained a respect for Yuan Delong's attitude.
"Oh, it's Zhimo, haha, if you don't call me, I'll call you." Yuan Delong said with a smile.
Lin Zhimo's mind turned and he understood that Yuan Delong probably heard about himself, so he didn't hide it and said directly: "Director Yuan, can't our movies really be banned?" ”
Yuan Delong was stunned: "You don't care if you can go to the Spring Festival Gala?" ”
Lin Zhimo smiled: "Director Yuan, to put it mildly, it really doesn't make much sense if I can't go to the Spring Festival Gala now...... What I care about most right now is my films. ”
Lin Zhimo knew that Yuan Delong had been working in CCTV since he graduated from college that year, and he was naturally clear about what happened there, so he directly asked about the review of films under the jurisdiction of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television.
Yuan Delong thought of Lin Zhimo's current reputation is also clear, indeed as Lin Zhimo said, even if there is no stage of the Spring Festival Gala, Lin Zhimo can ride the wind and waves, thinking of this, Yuan Delong replied: "The movie you participated in has no way to lift the ban for the time being, after all, it is very conflicting with the current public opinion propaganda...... In this way, I will talk to you and try to get your film unbanned immediately after the end of the Olympic bid next year. ”
Lin Zhimo heard Yuan Delong say this, and knew that there was really no way to do this.
You must know that with Yuan Delong's current status, even if he says such a thing, he has to take a lot of risks, but for the sake of Lin Zhimo, he still says this kind of thing, obviously treating Lin Zhimo as a real friend.
"But Zhimo, for the sake of insurance, you'd better prepare a song about the Olympic bid before the end of the Olympic bid, so that I can also have some certainty." When he was about to hang up the phone, Yuan Delong added.
"Okay, no problem, you can leave this matter to me." Lin Zhimo naturally agreed.
After a few more words of greeting with Yuan Delong, Lin Zhimo hung up the phone, thought about it for a while and continued to call Wang Xiaoshuai.
"Brother Wang, do you have a hard relationship in the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, I know Director Yuan Delong of CCTV......" Lin Zhimo told Lin Zhimo what happened just now.
"Really?" Wang Xiaoshuai was overjoyed when he heard this, and said excitedly: "Zhimo, don't worry, as long as Director Yuan says this kind of thing, I can mobilize the relationship again to break the ...... of our movie."
Wang Xiaoshuai suddenly fell silent when he said this.
Lin Zhimo asked strangely: "Brother Wang, what's wrong with you, you were so elated just now, why did you suddenly ...... again?"
"Alas, I didn't know that you kid and Director Yuan knew each other before, if I had known that you had this relationship, I wouldn't have ...... It's too late to say anything, but luckily it shouldn't affect you much. Wang Xiaoshuai said in a complicated tone. (To be continued.) )
