"Hiss..." Even though he was a master who had eaten and met before, Mr. Fu still couldn't help rubbing his teeth, "One billion Chinese dollars, good guy, that Daddy Bumi really dared to give it away Ah! Okay, I understand. Just take your word for it tomorrow! I guess this won’t be a big problem. Since I opened the door for you before, it shouldn’t be too difficult this time. The key is that you are a civilian and you have lost a lot of ties!”
"Okay, I'll listen to your call! By the way, for the premiere in three days, I want to ask Brother Haomin to help me stand up. Isn't this against the rules?" Liu Qingshan replied.
"You can ask him about his affairs, but I think there is no problem. He is not only a member of the competent department, but also has a personal relationship with you, so there is no problem in either identity!"
After the call ended, he immediately dialed Fu Haomin's mobile phone. The other party laughed loudly: "I'm just waiting for your invitation. It's just that you need to prepare a formal invitation letter so that I can bring some colleagues with me in a reasonable way. past!"
"Are you saying that the Ministry is planning to come forward in person?"
"Well, I was asked verbally by the superiors. The reason is that according to some data analysis, your film is likely to be the first time in history that a mainland film has been favored by the international market. Many people are expecting you to make a comeback for our country! "
"As for the specific reception..."
"You don't have to worry too much. People from the ministry are just going through the motions when they come forward. Trying to show as few official symbols on you as possible is the common understanding of some departments. I haven't told you about this. ? In fact, this is also true. Our country’s experience in the international arena is hard to describe, and your literary and artistic creation has its own particularity, so much so that after someone raised it at a certain meeting, even the Zhao family did not express clear opposition!"
"Thank you, Brother Haomin. I know you are speaking for me behind all this!"
"Don't think too highly of me. I am just a small bureaucrat in the department, and I am far from qualified to send messages to the higher authorities! To tell you the truth, your Zhang Yu Shaojiu has played a huge role. Previously, the Pang family The head of the family proposed it, and subsequently received responses or echoes from many forces in the capital. I even heard that the Zhao family was shocked by this! Maybe it was thought that you had contacted many people in secret and put in a lot of effort, but Later, when I found out that was not the case, I felt even more unsure!"
Obedient and obedient, Liu Qingshan knew the impact of the other party's failure to speak out, and the reason for this Xiangdong Group incident. The Zhao family may have been really frightened.
So he was in a good mood for a while: "Since you are here to support me, I should express my gratitude in some way, right?"
"I said no, no, it's enough to let my colleagues watch a movie for free. The Fu family and I will repay future favors. My elder brother has discussed this issue with me. There are some things you can't get involved in! "
"Since the ministry has come forward, shouldn't we at least hold a ribbon-cutting ceremony?"
"This can be done. Our side will be led by a deputy minister, and you can find two important figures for the rest!"
"Master Han, is he considered one?"
"If the ministry comes forward, he won't be qualified. Do you have any suitable candidates among your clients in Hollywood?"
"We won't know until tomorrow night, but two of the four legendary superstars will definitely come!"
"Let's find one of them. Is Mr. Crumb here too?"
"Well, we're together now!"
"Do you think it's appropriate for him to represent the Sashala Group?"
"I think it will work. Sashala Group is one of the top ten business groups in the world, and he is also the first in line to succeed!"
"Ask him. If it's possible, I'll make the decision!"
"How about adding another one? Director Martin or Chen Long?"
"Counting five of you? I think we should just include Hanshanping to make an even number. This kind of rule is not so strict. It's not up to us to have the final say! But the other one is Director Martin, who is from afar. guest!"
"It stands to reason that within the borders of Kyoto, someone from the city government must stand up. Since you have made a decision, just follow your decision!"
"If the city government doesn't come forward, we have already said hello. They also understand the reason and give them full understanding. If you have time in the next two days, you can give us a call to explain."
There is one member of the Fu family's immediate family who has always spared no effort in helping or giving guidance to Liu Qingshan, which has always made him feel warm in his heart.
There are not many people in this family who are obsessed with power, which is the main reason why he is willing to make friends.
According to his personal understanding, this is not only related to Fu Lao's upright conscience throughout his life, but also due to the relatively small population of this family.
Mr. Fu was an orphan when he was a child, and he also adopted a natural way of raising his three children. This can actually prove a lot from the fact that they have not had any political marriages since they became adults.
The eldest son, Fu Taimin, is a local official and is already a provincial-level official. However, his wife is just his college classmate and comes from an ordinary family. She has never helped him in his career progress.
Not to mention Fu Lili, the second child. Although her husband is a star-level actor, he comes from a poor background. The two of them got married when they were classmates in college. At that time, they were both unknown people.
The situation of the third oldest Fu Haomin has changed a bit. Now his wife is a native of Kyoto. Although there is a saying that there is a small family in the family, because his ancestors died early, in Kyoto, he cannot even reach entry-level strength. .
It can also be understood that this family is not only an outlier among the four major families, but also has a puzzlingly weak power in the officialdom where interpersonal relationships are complicated.
Undoubtedly, the fact that this family has been able to exist among the four families for decades depends almost entirely on Fu Lao, but this is only a superficial manifestation.
The key is that the family banner carried by him alone actually plays a clever role in balancing the forces of all parties.
Moreover, there are many like-minded people around him, and because there are not many private interests entangled with each other, they appear to be extraordinarily sincere and united.
This relationship is like a comradeship on the battlefield that has experienced life and death. When the enemy attacks, they guard their respective trenches, take advantage of the leisure time when the war is slightly calmer to quickly rescue each other, or people in the same trench pass around smoking the same cigarette.
This kind of interpersonal relationship is simple and direct in doing things, with less distractions from selfish thoughts and more persistence of will for the same goal.
The country naturally takes notice, especially in terms of military construction. Mr. Fu and his comrades have always firmly held the power in the military and will not let this giant warship deviate from its course.
Behind these image metaphors are official aliens who are completely different from other family forces. They do not have a greater desire for power, but some have a strong work attitude and ability. Working quietly is far more common than speaking loudly at the meeting. many.
This is the real reason why the Fu family, which seems to have an incredibly weak power structure, can firmly hold this top position.
Because on the surface, everything is calm and stable, but when there are sudden waves, there will be countless sudden waves of help and blessing around you.
The most frightening thing is that even if interested people try their best to search, they can't find the specific origin of that kind of help. It's like a surge of popular sentiment, coming from all directions and irresistibly.
Therefore, Liu Qingshan, who understood the essence of the Fu family's strength, chose to move forward without any doubt. However, this was by no means clinging, but rather a kindred spirit.
After hearing Fu Haomin's tactful advice, his first instinct was to do as he was told.
The person he called was Mayor Wang Changyi's secretary Shi Jianguo. After all, it was already after nine o'clock in the evening.
But this time may not seem suitable, but it is the private time before going to bed when the mayor of a city is most likely to answer the phone in person.
In fact, Shi Jianguo was just about to say goodbye and go home. When he received the call, he couldn't help but have a touch of ridicule in his tone: "Mr. Liu, you are good at picking the time. It seems that you have picked the most relaxing time of Mayor Wang's day." It’ll take a while!”
Sure enough, Wang Changyi's voice was also uploaded immediately: "Liu Qingshan, if it's him, give me the phone!"
The caller on the other side changed, and Liu Qingshan's tone immediately changed: "I'm sorry, Mayor Wang, for bothering you so late! Mainly because I just finished work today, so I had the opportunity to take over the premiere. , so the first target of help came quickly to ask for instructions!"
"Haha, I don't believe your nonsense. I'm afraid it was Mr. Fu's advice, right?"
"Mr. Fu is an elder in my family, and he has little actual involvement in the work content. However, I am stupid and do not understand normal organizational procedures. I am sure I have received guidance from him!"
"It's rare for Mr. Liu to speak so honestly. I appreciate it very much! Tell me, what do you want from me?"
"It's not just about the premiere. I didn't plan to hold it on a large scale. Unfortunately, in the past two days, overseas colleagues have been coming to visit me. I'm here to seek advice. It's my first time to undertake such a formal opening ceremony. , lack of understanding of the doorways inside!"
"Okay, don't beat around the bush with me. I understand what you're saying. Isn't it just a question of who can be chosen for the ribbon-cutting? Regarding your special situation, there has been a verbal agreement from above, which is to help you avoid official interviews. Actual participation in the article. It is not easy for our Chinese films to go abroad, and there are all kinds of slander and obstruction overseas. Therefore, my opinion is also that I hope you will completely adopt a purely private development model. This time the city government will not I plan to show my face!"
"Thank you and the city government for your full understanding. As the saying goes, everything is difficult at the beginning. Once I open the door of the market, I will be able to make some good changes!"
"But your invitation letter still needs to be sent over. After all, the venue is in Kyoto. At least we parents must know what you are going to do under our noses, right? Don't worry, there are people above you. The career is protected by neither the Fu family nor any of the four major families. I only told you this, and I don’t dare to let it out!"
