Let yourself lead the audition for "Olympic Baby"! ! !
Sun Tao's head was buzzing.
Happiness comes too suddenly.
These days, everything related to the Olympics, no matter how big or small, is of top priority. Even if the news is not related to the Olympics, readers will go and read it first.
Back then, if you wanted to be a volunteer, you had to memorize the test. Being selected as an "Olympic Baby" was equivalent to getting amazing equipment for playing games. How could girls not be enthusiastic about it.
Well, I'm sure I won't be stingy if I pay some price... For example, treat Sun Tao to a meal and give him two Chinese sons or something...
……
Sun Tao was silent, and Zhang Yimou and Chen Weiya misunderstood.
Chen Weiya chuckled, "I say you are in charge, but you are not responsible for everything. The specific operations will be coordinated by the Olympic Organizing Committee and you can rest assured that all schools, units, and individuals will cooperate 100%.
You just have to set your own rules and have a good selection criteria in mind, then determine when you will be free and notify the person in charge. ”
Zhang Yimou added, "There are also people from CCTV, the Yanjing Cultural and Sports Association, and the Olympic Organizing Committee in the directing team. If you are afraid of taking responsibility, let everyone vote. If you are afraid of them getting involved, just make a statement."< br>
Sun Tao, who was in charge of auditions, actually knew that after the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Feng Xiaogang would go to places like Beijing Film Academy and China Theater to select actors. On the eighth day of the Lunar New Year, Huayi Brothers sent notices of auditions to teachers in charge of external publicity in various schools. At that time, almost all the actors of suitable age in Yanjing went to Beijing Film Academy and China Theater to participate in auditions, and they were not just selected at these two schools.
Sun Tao had a flash of inspiration, "Hey, actually I'm worried about my own affairs."
Chen Weiya, "What's the matter with you? You have a contract to void, and you have a class to let the school give you a holiday. Don't worry, no organization or individual dares to touch this bad luck. There are really shameless companies, and they don't even need the Public Security Bureau, the Industrial and Commercial Tax Bureau, etc." He will be out of business in minutes!”
The elevator door opened and Zhang Yimou smiled, "Old Chen is right, but there can't be a company that doesn't know its priorities. Such a company would have gone bankrupt long ago. If there is a filming contract, the other company will have to make an announcement quickly, because the contract partner I participated in activities related to the closing ceremony of the Athens Olympics, so the shooting plan was postponed... Everyone is trying to get involved with the Olympics..."
There were only three of them in the elevator.
Sun Tao smiled bitterly and said, "Actually, I, alas, I am not a student of Yanjing Film Academy yet. I am an auditor now, because I am somewhat famous. The school allows me to follow and attend classes first."
Zhang Yimou, "Oh, you are not a student of Yanjing Film Academy yet!"
Chen Weiya, "Are you going to take the art exam this year? By the way, what will you do about the college entrance examination?"
Sun Tao said helplessly: "I'm not afraid of the art exam, but for the college entrance examination, our film school only accepts fresh graduates. Originally, someone helped me manage my Hong Kong and Macao identity. Once the operation is completed, I can avoid the college entrance examination, but I have to go to Hong Kong again. Once or twice I was afraid of delaying things.”
When the elevator reached the first floor, the three of them walked out of the elevator. Chen Weiya was helping Sun Tao analyze the pros and cons. Zhang Yimou stopped at the end of the corridor, "You two, wait for me and I will make a call."
It didn't take long, and Chen Weiya had just finished exchanging phone numbers with Sun Tao, "Hahaha, look at it. I was shocked at the time. As an assistant director, my phone bill was waived as soon as I got the status. Then someone took me there without even applying." My MSN and QQ are all put into one group, and I don’t know which unit is so powerful..."
Before Chen Weiya finished speaking, Zhang Yimou had already hung up the phone and came over, "Okay, you don't need to adjust your Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan identity, and you don't need to take the art exam. As a special matter, you have been admitted to Yanjing Film Academy. Now, you can choose your major." Sun Tao was stunned, Yanjing Film Academy! It was settled with just one phone call, but then I thought about it, which school, Harvard, Yale, or Qingbei University, didn't have hundreds of special admissions students?
Sun Tao hurriedly said: "Ah! Director Zhang, thank you so much. If I changed to Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan, I would have to do a lot of things over again. I feel dizzy just thinking about it, not to mention how much time and energy it would take... …”
Zhang Yimou waved his hand, "Okay, okay, you don't need to thank me. It's because of your status as a member of the directing team for the eight-minute closing ceremony of the Athens Olympics. You have made outstanding contributions to the country, so it's easy for the top to say and the bottom to agree." .
Oh, your school doesn’t know about it yet, but you can rest assured that there won’t be any accidents. Don’t talk about it yet, just wait until the school informs you. ”
……
January 30, 2004, the ninth day of the first lunar month, at 5:15 in the afternoon.
According to the custom of Northeastern people, if someone has done such a big favor for you, you should treat him to a meal.
As a result, Chen Weiya said that his wife was already urging him, and he didn't dare to eat out and say hello before leaving without declaring it in advance.
Zhang Yimou also smiled and said, "No need, no need. From now on, we may be bored to death if we meet every day. I still have a lot of finishing work for "House of Flying Daggers". This eight-minute performance is said to be a performance at the closing ceremony of the Athens Olympics. This is the prelude to the Yanjing Olympic Games and there is no room for sloppiness. I have two jobs now and I really don’t have time to socialize. I appreciate your kindness.
Alas, where are you going now? I'll see if it's a smooth road. I'll give you a ride along the way. ”
……
Sun Tao didn't get into Zhang Yimou's car because three staff members stopped him. He registered and filled out a form, his ID card was copied, and his fingerprints were retained. After one operation, Sun Tao got an address book and a special pass.
"TZ District, No. 1 Beiyuan." Sun Tao looked at the young man in front of him doubtfully, "Where is this?"
"Director Sun, this is the workplace of the closing ceremony director team. From now on, your meetings and rehearsals will be arranged there. Do you need to send a car to pick you up every day?"
Sun Tao said lightly: "No need, I have my own car."
"Oh, then please register the vehicle information again, but the car can only be parked in a nearby parking lot..."
——
It was completely dark after registration, but luckily there were bright lights near the CCTV.
Sun Tao was not in a hurry to go home. He wandered around and found a Western restaurant called "Minggu" nearby.
There were not many people in the restaurant, so Sun Tao found a corner to sit down and took the menu from the waiter.
Tomahawk steak set meal, 188, which includes a piece of steak, a piece of bread, an aperitif, borscht... This meal costs up to 100 in other places in Yanjing, and it is about 48 in Good Morning.
Sun Tao ordered the food leisurely. He didn't care about spending more money. First, he was now a multi-millionaire. Secondly, obtaining film school status in this way saved him a lot of trouble and made him happy. Third, the heating here is very powerful, and the waiters wear maid uniforms with black silk skirts, which are eye-catching. (End of chapter)
