Lin Yuquan didn't know that he was followed by a reporter with ulterior motives, for him, it was just a good friend Xu Jinglei who fell, and he helped the other party, it was not a big deal at all.

After a cup of coffee, he and Xu Jinglei entered a café, and after drinking a cup of coffee, he and Xu Jinglei separated and drove to the address sent by Zhang Yi in a text message, located outside a small courtyard on the west side of the Olympic Village near the North Fifth Ring Road in Kyoto.

Yes, a particularly quiet courtyard, there is only a four-storey building in the courtyard, which looks very inconspicuous under the shade of the surrounding residential buildings, if it were not for the fact that this is indeed the address of Zhang Yi, Lin Yuquan would never think that this is the operation center of the opening and closing ceremonies of the Kyoto Olympic Games, which has gathered countless first-class artists and engineering technology and production personnel at home and abroad.

Lin Yuquan originally thought that the operation center should be located in the Kyoto Olympic Building, the headquarters of the Kyoto Olympic Organizing Committee, but later, after Zhang Yi told him the address, he learned that the operation center had moved out of the Kyoto Olympic Building and started a new stove on the west side of the Olympic Central Area.

However, after a little thought, he knew that the intention of the operation center, of course, could not be a shortage of funds, there was only one reason for this, strictly confidential, so that the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games at that time could bring the world the greatest sense of amazement, the charm of the opening ceremony lies in the complete freshness of the amazement?

"Hello, comrade, people are not allowed to enter here, if you are a staff member, then please bring your ID. If not. Who are you looking for? Lin Yuquan walked to the gate of the courtyard. Immediately stopped by two tall security guards and asked.

"I'm looking for director Zhang Yi, and I made an appointment with him." Lin Yuquan was still wearing a hat and sunglasses at this time, and said with a smile when he heard this.

As the security guards of the operation center, of course, it is impossible for the two not to know that the chief director of the opening ceremony is Zhang Yimou, if it was somewhere else, Lin Yuquan would naturally be allowed to enter, but this place is different, the two glanced at each other. One of them said: "I'm sorry comrade, outsiders are not allowed to enter here, if you don't have a separate opening and closing ceremony work team certificate, then please show the release slip signed by the main person in charge of the operation center, if you still don't, then you can only let Director Zhang Yi come down to pick you up." ”

"Oh!" Lin Yuquan nodded, he naturally had no complaints about these two conscientious security guards, in his crew, in his company, he also required this, there are no rules. Only a strict system can keep a team running normally, and he immediately took out his mobile phone to dial Zhang Yi. explained the situation, and then stood in place with peace of mind, waiting for Zhang Yi to come out.

"Hey, Yuquan, it's coming fast enough!" Zhang Yimou walked out of the door and greeted Lin Yuquan with a smile.

"Of course, I don't want to be scolded by someone when I'm late." Lin Yuquan smiled.

"Come less, I dare to scold you, I'm still afraid that you will be unhappy with peaches?" Zhang Yi smiled brightly, turned to the staff and said, "He was brought in by me, and he will work here in the future." ”

"Stop, how do you feel like I'm your subordinate, I'm just here to help you, I don't have that much time." Lin Yuquan said while following Zhang Yi into the courtyard, of course, he didn't forget to look at the environment in the courtyard.

"I didn't say that you are my subordinate, let me introduce you to the situation of the operation center, our operation center is divided into three parts of the closed area of the hospital, the internal control area of the building and the core area for management, the entire small courtyard belongs to the closed area of the hospital, and the whole small building belongs to the internal control area of the building, the core area is some important departments, the information is absolutely confidential, this four-story small building is where our operation center works, the first floor is the technical system area of the opening and closing ceremony work team, The second floor is for the opening and closing ceremonies of the Paralympic Games, the third floor is for the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Games, the fourth floor is for the work area of the managers, and my office is on the third floor. Zhang Yi said quickly.

The security facilities of the entire operation center are indeed tight, and they are managed layer by layer, and when they enter the small building, there are tall and burly security guards to check them, because this time Zhang Yi led the way, and it was naturally unimpeded.

As soon as he entered the first floor of the building, Lin Yuquan immediately saw the hanging sign of "Kyoto Olympic Games Opening and Closing Ceremonies Operation Center", and Lin Yuquan's arrival immediately made the front desk service staff look at him sideways.

"If you take off your hat and sunglasses, I think they'll scream for you." Zhang Yi said with a smile.

"I don't need to scream like that, where are we going down, to your office?" Lin Yuquan asked.

"No, first go to the office of Minister Wang, the director of the operation center, sign a confidentiality agreement with him, and then send you a separate certificate for the opening and closing ceremonies work team." Zhang Yi shook his head with a smile.

"Why is it called Minister Wang?" Lin Yuquan asked when he heard the salutation.

"Because while serving as the director of the operation center, he is also the executive deputy director of the opening and closing ceremonies of the Olympic Organizing Committee, so he is naturally called Minister Wang." Zhang Yi said.

Next, Lin Yuquan fully realized the confidentiality system of the operation center, each floor has tall security guards on duty 24 hours a day, according to Zhang Yi, different staff access areas have strict restrictions, in addition to him and the opening and closing ceremonies of the main creative team and the leaders of the operation center, there are also a very small number of leaders of the Olympic Organizing Committee, and others can not enter and exit the area of each floor of the small building at will.

The two soon came to an office on the fourth floor, which was a suite, with a cubicle where the secretary was on the outside and a leader's office inside.

"Is Minister Wang here?" As soon as he entered the office, Zhang Yi asked the young man who was about twenty-seven or eighteen years old as the secretary.

"Yes." The young man nodded and said, then got up and knocked on the door of the office inside twice rhythmically: "Minister, Director Zhang Yi is here." ”

"Oh, please let him in." Suddenly, a neutral voice came from inside.

After the young man gently pushed open the door, Zhang Yi told the other party that he didn't need to make tea, and followed Lin Yuquan in, and then Lin Yuquan saw a middle-aged man sitting behind a desk, and the whole person looked energetic.

As soon as he saw Lin Yuquan and Zhang Yi entering the room, the middle-aged man immediately got up with a smile on his face and asked Zhang Yimou, "Director Zhang, could it be this?" ”

"That's right, Minister Wang, let me introduce to you, he is our country's most influential director in the world today, Director Lin Yuquan, Yuquan, this is the executive deputy minister of the opening and closing ceremonies of our Kyoto Olympic Organizing Committee, and also the director of our Olympic Games Opening and Closing Ceremonies Operation Center, Minister Wang Ningwang." Although Wang Ning, as the executive deputy minister of the opening and closing ceremonies and the director of the operation center, has a very high level in the administrative system and is a leading cadre at the bureau level, Zhang Yimou's tone is calm, and he completely puts himself in an equal position with the other party, and with his status and influence in China, he does have this qualification.

"I've heard of Director Lin's name for a long time, and I've finally seen you today." Wang Ning left the desk and said enthusiastically, whether it is Lin Yuquan's identity as a top director or the identity of a super-rich man worth tens of billions, it is not something he can despise.

"Hello, Minister Wang, you are younger and more handsome than I imagined, I originally thought that the person in charge of the operation center of the hall would be an old man with gray hair." Lin Yuquan took off his sunglasses, shook hands with Wang Ning, and said with a chuckle, his attitude was the same as Zhang Yimou, because the two sides did not have a direct relationship, maybe Wang Ning was of a very high level, but he didn't have to care too much, in fact, even if the other party was a central leader or a member of the ruling party, he didn't have to deliberately grovel with his influence today.

"Thank you! But when it comes to being young and handsome, as well as talented, I'm afraid there is no one in the world who can compare with Director Lin. Wang Ning smiled.

"Minister Wang praised that there are many people in this world who are better than me." Lin Yuquan shook his head with a smile.

After a brief greeting, Zhang Yi got to the point: "Minister Wang, I brought Yuquan here to sign a confidentiality agreement and issue him a certificate." ”

"I know this, you told me in the morning, the confidentiality agreement and documents, I have ready." Wang Ning nodded.

After explaining the confidentiality matters, signing the confidentiality agreement and obtaining the certificate, Lin Yuquan then followed Zhang Yi to his office in Room 302A on the third floor.

As soon as he entered the office, Lin Yuquan showed a surprised expression on his face, this place didn't look like an ordinary office at all, not to mention it, it looked like a small conference room.

Seeing Lin Yuquan looking at the room, Zhang Yi said with a smile: "I'm a bit messy here, I have meetings here almost every day, so I'm too lazy to clean up, because after cleaning up, it will be messed up again immediately." ”

"Sure enough, the chief director of the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games is not so good, how about it, do you feel very hard." Lin Yuquan looked at the pictures on the table and said.

"It's false to say that it's not hard, but as long as we can present a wonderful opening ceremony, it's worth it, and in fact, when it comes to hard work, how can our hard work compare to those actors who rehearse the show day and night." Zhang Yi said.

"You've all worked hard, and I'm sure this year's Olympic Games opening ceremony will be wonderful." Lin Yuquan said with a smile.

"Yes, definitely." Zhang Yi said firmly.

The afternoon meeting of the operation center was not a meeting held by the whole operation center, but a meeting of the main creative team of the opening ceremony of the operation center, and the meeting was held in Zhang Yi's office.

Lin Yuquan soon met the members of the main creative team of the opening ceremony, including Chen Weiya and Zhang Jigang, deputy chief directors and former chief directors of countless large-scale cultural activities, Chen Qigang, the chief music designer and famous composer, Chen Qigang, who was a classmate of Tan Dun, and Cheng Xiaodong, the chief designer of the aerial stunt show, the famous director and martial arts instructor, and all other people arrived, and the meeting also began.
