China Entertainment’s rescue plan is hard to come by

Chapter 768 Target - Beijing International Film Festival

In 2011, the Beijing Municipal Government had not yet moved to TZ District, but was located on Zhengyi Road in Dongcheng District.

At this moment, Sun Yi was standing in front of the Beijing Municipal Government Building, shaking hands and saying goodbye to a kind-faced middle-aged man.

There were several staff members standing behind each of the two men, all standing on one side with smiles on their faces, leaving the entire space in front of the building entrance to the two men.

"Leader, please stay. I really can't send you off any longer. Otherwise, it will be very frustrating for me."

"Director Sun is able to offer advice and make positive contributions to the cultural development of our capital. I should thank you."

"Mayor, I don't deserve this title. I really don't deserve it. I just did what an ordinary citizen should do."

Sun Yi looked very humble. Today he had come to the city government specifically for the film festival.

The leader standing in front of him was Deputy Mayor Liu of the Beijing Municipal Government, who was in charge of culture and education.

After returning to Beijing with Liu Yifei from "The Martian", Sun Yi became interested in the film festival.

And as far as he knew, there was an opportunity right now that would allow him to participate legitimately.

It is the Beijing International Film Festival founded in 2013 in its previous life.

As an internationally certified A-level film festival, although its value is a bit watered down due to its late start, its level and platform are certainly not bad.

Now that he is here, why can't we do it earlier!

Even if you cannot become one of the founding organizations due to your identity issues, you can always settle for being a co-organizer.

As a leading domestic private film and television company, Starry Sky Image is very prestigious in every way.

Sun Yi contacted the Beijing Municipal Government through the help of Senior Sister Yu.

Don't ask how the connection was made. No one would rush into such a thing rashly.

What if the city government has no plans in this regard at all, then it would be embarrassing for us to send it there.

Although the Beijing International Film Festival was successfully held in 2013, who knows what the leaders were thinking two years ago today.

Fortunately, after several years of communication and waiting, Vice Mayor Liu agreed to today's meeting.

Starry Sky Image hopes to work with the Beijing Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government to establish an A-level international film festival.

Deputy Mayor Liu was very interested in Sun Yi's suggestion.

In fact, Sun Yi was simply worrying too much. The Beijing municipal government itself had a long-term plan to strengthen cultural construction and build a "world city".

Moreover, the Beijing Film Festival, the predecessor of the Beijing International Film Festival, was established as early as last year.

Apart from the lack of award-giving units and copyright transactions, everything else is basically the same as any other international A-level film festival.

It can be seen that the Beijing Municipal Government should have had relevant ideas as early as last year.

However, due to the lack of experience and strong support from people in the industry, they chose a relatively safe route and did not achieve their goal in one step.

As the capital, Beijing’s organizational capabilities and qualifications are beyond doubt. Not to mention an A-level film festival, even if there is an S-level one in the future, it will be able to win it as usual.

However, it may be a little less popular.

After all, it's impossible for the city government to condescend to invite all kinds of celebrity directors and people from the circle to attend.

And now, Sun Yi's proactive contact is like a pillow given to one when he is sleepy.

China's youngest Palme d'Or director and the record holder for domestic film box office success. He could have removed the word "domestic" from his film. Last year's "Pacific Rim" broke the box office record for American blockbusters in China, but unfortunately it was taken back by "Transformers 3" which grossed 12.8 billion this year.

However, "Gravity" is still in theaters, and has already obtained the key to postpone its release, a full half-month period. With its current box office record of 11 billion, it is basically certain that Sun Yi will regain the record.

In addition to him, Starry Sky Image is also a local Beijing enterprise, a listed company, and a leading stock in the film and television industry.

How could Vice Mayor Liu not take it seriously?

From the fact that he escorted Sun Yi and his group all the way from the conference room to the building entrance after the meeting, it can be seen how much he cares about this matter.

This is Beijing, the capital! Although his job title is called deputy mayor, he is definitely at the vice-provincial level.

It's a level higher than Han Sanping.

On the steps, Deputy Mayor Liu was in high spirits. He held Sun Yi's hand tightly and looked very cordial.

"Director Sun, I will organize relevant departments to conduct a feasibility study on your suggestion later, and then report it to the mayor to convene a team meeting for collective discussion. Here, I can tell you clearly that I personally strongly support such activities that can effectively strengthen the city's spiritual civilization construction and add luster to the city's business card."

“Thank you, Mayor.”

Sun Yi hurriedly thanked him.

"It's not that I can thank you, it's my job. But once the meeting passes, I'll have to work harder for you."

"Mayor, it's not hard work, it's all what we deserve."

"Haha. Okay, Director Sun, we'll see you next time."

"Goodbye, Mayor."

The first meeting with the municipal government ended happily.

As for what Vice Mayor Liu said about further discussion and meeting, Sun Yi didn't think much of it as he was mentally prepared.

After all, this is an international A-level film festival, and there are so many aspects involved. Moreover, once it is successful, it will have to be held every year in the future. It is not something that can be decided just by lip service.

However, judging from the tone of Deputy Mayor Liu, this matter is basically possible.

Now all we have to do is wait for good news.

When I got home and just walked in the door, I heard a string of silver bell-like laughter.

Still a familiar taste.

Sun Yi knew that this was undoubtedly his wife.

But he was a little curious. What was she doing? She was laughing so happily that she didn't even hear him open the door.

There is music, are you watching TV?

Sun Yi quietly put on his slippers, walked into the living room, looked up, and suddenly burst into laughter.

Watching TV indeed.

But, what are you looking at?

I'll scare you to death if I tell you - Tom Presses Jerry

Liu Yifei was wearing a teddy bear home clothes, holding a bag of dried mangoes in her hand. She was not wearing socks, and her pair of white and tender feet were bare. She placed them on the coffee table in a very ungraceful manner, watching Tom being teased by Jerry on TV, laughing "sillyly", without the image of a big star at all.

"Hehehe, brother, you're back~"

Hearing Sun Yi's laughter, Liu Yifei finally reacted. She retracted her feet and, in an unusual way, stood on the sofa and pounced towards Sun Yi.

"Hey, pay attention!"

Fortunately, Sun Yi reacted early and quickly raised his hands to support Liu Yifei's buttocks and held her in his arms.

"Oh, it's been a while since we last met, what are you doing?"

"I missed you." Liu Yifei put her arms around Sun Yi's neck with a sweet look on her face.

"By the way, how did the discussion go?"

"Of course there is no problem. Let's see who is doing it."

"My husband is the worst~"

"Ahem, it's okay."

"Reward you one, mua~~~~"

Before he finished speaking, Sun Yi saw Liu Xiaoni's pretty face coming towards him and he kissed her hard.

Sun Yi responded quickly, but the next second, something unknown went into his mouth.

He is still confused.

Something is wrong, this is different from usual!

"Oh, what the hell is this?"

It felt a little sour and a little lickable, so Sun Yi licked it several times as if by reflex.

"Dried mango is delicious!"

"Liu Xixi! Eat half of it."

"Don't vomit!"

"Um~~~~"
