director of the millennium

"The situation is becoming increasingly serious!"

Looking at the latest news on the domestic social networking site in his hand, Wu Yuan sighed heavily.

It is now February 2020, 2 in North America.

The "black swan event" that was not changed by him, the butterfly, still appeared as in the original time and space.

At present, the cumulative number of confirmed cases in the country has reached 37,000. This is no longer a small incident and has begun to attract the attention of the international community.

In the face of such a major event involving the entire human society, even if Wu Yuan is an internationally renowned director, he is no more than a floating being.

Because he had no reason and didn't know how to stop this incident from happening. Apart from knowing that the outbreak point was in Jiangcheng, Liu Yifei's hometown, he didn't know the cause, specific location, or process of the incident.

Because even in the time and space he knew, there were several speculations about the outbreak of this black swan event, including conspiracy theories and official announcements, but what was certain was that the occurrence of this incident was full of uncertainties, and Wu Yuan had no way to stop it.

But to say that I was completely unprepared is impossible.

Wu Yuan had already used his own money to purchase a large number of masks, medical supplies, ventilators, and protective clothing in the United States in advance.

Because he bought it himself in the United States and it did not go through the hands of Guangying Times or Guangying Kuaibo, Li Xiaoping and others were not clear about Wu Yuan's exact purchase time, so they could make a vague time difference.

In the past two days, he had sent these supplies worth millions of dollars back to the country.

Not only him, but many people in the entertainment industry, including Jackie Chan, are also doing similar things, but they do not have Wu Yuan's ability to predict the future. They are still in the process of purchasing and it is estimated that they will be sent back to China next week.

Cheng Long also plans to send his private jet to fly around the world to purchase medical supplies that are in short supply in the country, doing his best.

It must be said that although Jackie Chan did not do well in his private life, when it comes to national justice and charity support, he is indeed the best in the country and one of the people in the entertainment industry who has the greatest support.

A few days ago, Cheng Long made a special call to Wu Yuan who was in the United States, hoping that he could help him purchase some medical supplies.

The two worked together and used their connections to order millions of dollars worth of supplies, which will be shipped back to China in the next batch.

As for family, Liu Yifei has contacted Wu Yuan much more frequently in recent days, making two or three video calls almost every day to report safety.

Fortunately, Liu's relatives who were far away in Jiangcheng were basically fine, including Liu Yifei's elderly grandmother, who is still in good health and is currently cooperating with the country's arrangements, which made Wu Yuan feel much more relieved.

Liu Yifei is very worried and is even considering whether to go abroad with her family to avoid this epidemic crisis.

However, Wu Yuan dissuaded her from this idea.

There is no safety abroad as there is at home.

Especially this wave of black swan events has fully demonstrated the security of the country. You must know that although the outbreak point was in the country, after the first half of this year, the domestic situation has been basically controlled and the impact has been reduced to the lowest.

In contrast, since the second half of this year, there has been chaos abroad. Unlike the organized and coordinated arrangements in China, the epidemic has broken out wildly abroad. Due to various reasons such as medical shortages, untimely rescue, and people's lack of concern, it is impossible to control the situation abroad, and they can only watch it rage.

The first batch of people who fled from China to foreign countries to avoid risks were all infected overseas.
Wu Yuan would definitely not do such a stupid thing, nor would he allow his family to do so.

He was even thankful that he could avoid the chaos abroad and stay quietly in the country for the second half of the year, watching the changes in the situation.

However, if you want to return home peacefully, you still have to wait until the Oscars ceremony is over. Tomorrow, February 2012, 2, US time, is the 9nd Academy Awards ceremony.

This time is different from the nomination luncheon, as a large number of people from the "Bruce Lee" crew will attend together.

Including the producer, several leading actors, editors and other nominated crew members, there are seven or eight people in total, and everyone will walk the red carpet together.

Unlike previous years when the Oscars sold red carpet invitations aggressively, attracting actors from all over the world to join in the fun, the Oscars have been much more honest in recent years and no longer sell red carpets. Only the nominated nominees can bring up to three relatives and friends to the Oscars ceremony, and they cannot walk the red carpet, but only have seats for the ceremony.

The next day, February 2th, at 9 p.m. US time, a.m. Beijing time, countless media reporters and movie fans had gathered outside the Dolby Theater.

A long red carpet has been laid, leading directly to the driveway on the side of the road.

At this time, the earliest group of guests attending the Oscar Awards ceremony that evening had already boarded the welcoming car and walked onto the red carpet.

However, everyone from the "Bruce Lee" crew was still waiting in a hotel not far from the Dolby Theater.

As the crew of a film nominated for Best Picture, they naturally had to go on the red carpet at the end of the two-hour red carpet segment.

Even Emma Stone, who has changed into a gorgeous dress, has curly hair and wears long earrings, is in a relaxed mood and teasing Chen Guokun, who is extremely nervous about attending the Oscars for the first time.

"Chen, relax. This is no different from the red carpets you walked on in China." Emma Stone pursed her lips and pointed at Wu Yuan who was sitting next to her.

"Look at the director. He is very relaxed and even has the energy to play with his phone."

"I'm not playing." Wu Yuan raised his eyebrows: "I'm concerned about national affairs."

"OK, OK~" Emma Stone shrugged. What happened far away in China was not something worth caring about for Americans. She was more concerned about Wu Yuan's appearance today, which was quite handsome.

Wu Yuan did not wear the usual suit today, but followed Cheng Long's style and wore a modified version of the Tang suit.

However, unlike Cheng Long's steady style, Wu Yuan's style is steady yet a little flamboyant. On the pure black Tang suit, there is a golden dragon pattern engraved with gold thread, and it is also matched with patterns of peonies, roses, etc.

He also stood up the collar of his Tang suit, giving it a sense of unrestrainedness.

He seldom wears this kind of Tang suit. It was when he was contacting Cheng Long about medical supplies and talked about attending the Oscars red carpet that Cheng Long suggested this.

After all, Cheng Long likes to show off his Chinese style when attending overseas events.

Wu Yuan humbly accepted this.

You know what, he looks quite handsome in this Tang suit. Even Emma Stone couldn't take her eyes off it.

"In one hour, it will be our turn to walk the red carpet."

Wu Yuan suggested with a smile: "Ladies and gentlemen, let's eat something before this, otherwise the award ceremony will not be over until the early morning."

The men present had no objections, but Emma Stone showed a distressed expression: "I still have to walk the red carpet, so I can't eat too much. I can only eat some chocolate to replenish my energy."

"Walking on the red carpet is really a nightmare day for actresses!" (End of this chapter)
