Chen Ye, who was lying on the sofa in the living room playing with his mobile phone, suddenly heard the sound of the door opening. He glanced at the time and saw that it was already past ten o'clock. He shouted: "Dad, my mother is back."
"Okay," Father Chen came out of the study: "I'll heat up some food for your mother."
The person who opened the door and came in was Ye Wen. She dragged her tired body and threw her bag on the cabinet at the door. She changed into slippers and said, "I'm almost exhausted today."
"Why is it so late today?"
"There is an important meeting that lasts until nine o'clock."
After the meeting, Ye Wen returned to the office to process documents. She was so busy that she forgot to check the time.
Ye Wen got herself a glass of boiled water and drank it all in one gulp. She still felt a little thirsty, so she poured another glass. After drinking it all, she felt better.
Chen Ye looked at his phone and said, "How old are you? You are still busy working overtime all day long."
Ye Wen sat next to Chen Ye holding a cup: "Your mother can work for at least another twenty years."
"Yes, yes! You are a strong woman."
Ye Wen smiled and changed the subject: "How are you doing lately?"
“It’s good to go to and from work every day.”
"Your work report is not up to standard."
Chen Ye put down his cell phone and pretended to be serious: "Reporting to Bureau Ye, the recent work situation... is really good, as usual, nothing happened."
"soy Mujer."
The mother and daughter laughed.
Ye Wen took a sip of water and felt that she was finally not so thirsty: "How are you preparing for Mr. Tan's new movie?"
"How do you know?" Chen Ye didn't mention a word about Tan Yue's new movie at home this time.
"Have you forgotten what your mother does?"
Chen Ye patted his head. If he wanted to make a movie, he would definitely register the copyright.
In order to know as soon as possible whether Tan Yue will have a new movie, Ye Wen specially arranged relevant staff to pay close attention to Tan Yue's developments.
When registering copyright information, Ye Wen also got the news immediately.
Chen Ye replied: "It will probably be started soon. Mr. Tan went to attend the startup banquet tonight."
"The action is so fast!" Ye Wen, who was still a little tired, immediately became excited after hearing the news.
Tan Yue is currently the leading figure in domestic films. There are countless directors in the domestic film industry, but he is the only one who can make domestic films achieve good results in the global film market.
The two films have given domestic films a lot of face in the international film market. Could she not be excited when she heard that the new film would be shot soon?
Now Tan Yue's films are a banner for domestic films.
Chen Ye explained: "I don't know what the reason is this time, but the progress of various preparations is much faster than before."
"Then maybe you want to make the movie quickly." Ye Wen didn't think much about it.
"The food is hot, come and eat." Chen Ye came out of the kitchen with a bowl of porridge.
"Do you want some more?"
"I'm going to lose weight." Chen Ye picked up the phone and lay down on the sofa again.
Ye Wen got up and washed her hands in the kitchen, brought the dishes to the living room, and started eating alone.
"Today's food is good and delicious."
I don’t know whether it’s because I’m too hungry or I’m in a better mood, but tonight’s meal feels particularly delicious.
"Really? I think it's no different from before." Chen Ye joked: "Dad, did you make it for my mother again?"
"No, the two of us still eat the leftovers."
Ye Wen continued to eat.

...
June 1st, afternoon.
Two buses were parked in front of the Bright Entertainment Company.
Many people were carrying large and small bags ready to get on the bus. Today the crew will take a flight to New York.
In order to find a more suitable venue for the plot background, the filming location this time was still chosen abroad.
The crew is basically all old faces.
Due to time constraints, the entire crew is basically made up of old employees. As long as Tan Yue formed the crew, they would basically be these people.
With ease, they also knew Tan Yue's shooting style.
"Send a message when you land."
"Don't forget the mission assigned to you, my souvenir."
"When you come back, I'll treat you to a drink."
Many people from the film department came out to see me off.
Zheng Tong raised his hand and looked at the time on his watch, and arranged: "Let's see who hasn't arrived yet. Call us quickly. The train is about to leave. Assistant director, go and do the statistics."
At this time, Tan Yue was in the car in the parking lot, starting the vehicle and getting ready to set off.
Chen Ziyu, who was sitting in the passenger seat, asked: "How are the arrangements in New York?"
"The arrangements have been made. We will go directly to the hotel after getting off the plane."
Because he was going to shoot abroad, Zheng Tong sent people to New York early to arrange various things, including daily necessities, food, clothing, housing and transportation, work arrangements for the opening ceremony, and finding a suitable venue...
This is not the first time for the crew to go abroad, and the preparations are quite good.
"Let's go too, the bus is leaving."
Tan Yue planned to take the bus to the airport with the crew, but Chen Ziyu insisted on coming to see him off.
"OK!"
The car followed the bus towards the airport.
More than an hour later, we arrived at the airport.
At this parting moment, Chen Ziyu held Tan Yue's hand: "Be safe abroad."
"Okay." Tan Yue nodded heavily.
"Also, don't delay your rest because of work." This is also what Chen Ziyu is most worried about.
"Same for you. After I leave, you will handle the company's affairs alone. You must also remember to take a rest."
Chen Ziyu's working state is similar to Tan Yue's, and she won't rest until she finishes her work.
"Then we all have to do this." Chen Ziyu said reluctantly: "Remember to give me a call after the plane lands."
The two parted after hugging.
Tan Yue, Fan Shan, Ma Guoliang, Jiao Cheng and others came to the VIP waiting room to wait.
Just these few people waiting outside to board the plane will inevitably attract onlookers and affect public order.
Several people were looking at the scripts in their hands.
To master a role in such a short period of time from getting the script to about to start shooting, time is still quite tight, and they also make full use of their time.
After waiting at the airport for a while, the crew boarded a plane to New York.
After hearing the captain's voice, the plane took off.
Tan Yue happened to be sitting by the window. He turned his head and looked at the smaller and smaller city through the glass, feeling a little emotional for a moment.
In order to make a film and television work, I traveled all over the country at first, but now I have to go abroad for filming.
Always making progress is the best state.
In the past, there were reasons for making movies that had to be done well, and this time it was even more so.
The outline of the city became more and more blurred, and was gradually blocked by clouds. Tan Yue whispered: "Goodbye, wait until I come back."
There were still people talking at first, then the voices became quieter and quieter, and gradually no one spoke anymore.
Tan Yue took out the split-shot script and read it. Like an actor, his time would be even tighter. Even if he had memorized everything, he still had to get familiar with it again. After eating on the plane, I felt my eyelids getting heavier and heavier, and I didn’t know when I fell asleep. When I opened my eyes again, the plane was about to land.
The stewardess's voice sounded in the cabin, which probably meant that you were welcome to board this flight. The plane was about to land and you couldn't move around casually.
The plane experienced brief turbulence during descent and landed safely.
After sitting on the plane for more than ten hours, many people sighed "Finally landed."
Tan Yue and his party packed up their things, got off the plane, went through security check and picked up their luggage. After struggling for more than an hour, they got out of the exit.
The staff here who arranged for airport pick-up saw Tan Yue and others holding a sign.
"Mr. Tan."
"Thank you for your hard work." It was about six o'clock in the evening in New York.
"The buses have been arranged and are at the door."
"Arrange for everyone to go back to the hotel and rest as soon as possible."
After more than ten hours of flight and jet lag, many people in the crew were not in a good mental state, and there were one or two who had a big reaction and looked very pale.
"clear."
A group of people started to board the car, dragging large and small bags.
After everyone got on the bus, two buses headed to the hotel.
There were not many people talking in the car. Some wore eye masks and continued to sleep, while others silently looked at the scenery outside the window.
After all, it is the first time to come to this place.
Tan Yue asked: "How are the preparations here?"
The person in charge here, the person who picked up the plane, replied: "The venue for tomorrow's opening ceremony has been set up, and there is no problem with the shooting location."
Tan Yue nodded and stopped talking. His condition was not good either.
More than an hour later, the bus slowly stopped.
"Everyone, we've arrived at the hotel. Please pack up and get off."
Under the leadership of the person in charge, the group began to check in.
In the blink of an eye, it was nearly an hour again.
After everyone checked in, the person in charge came to Tan Yue's room to report the situation.
"Have those who felt unwell been sent to the hospital?"
"Sent it over."
"Okay, let's arrange a meal for everyone."
About half of the people came down to eat, and many people continued to rest in the hotel.
Tan Yue also had no appetite, so he simply ate some and went back to his room, took out his mobile phone and dialed Chen Ziyu's number.
As soon as the plane landed, he reported that it was safe.
The phone was answered quickly.
"Have the arrangements been made over there?"
Tan Yue was lying on the sofa: "I just had dinner and was lying down in the room."
Chen Ziyu looked at the time on her phone: "It should be night over there now."
"It's evening. I haven't eaten a lot of dinner. I'm jet lagged when I go back to the room."
"You should also rest quickly. There will be a power-on ceremony tomorrow morning."
Tan Yue said "Yeah", he was indeed quite tired: "Hang up the phone first, I'm going to wash up."
"Have a good rest!" Chen Ziyu hung up the phone and continued busy with the work at hand.
After Tan Yue washed up, he was not in a hurry to go to bed. He went over the content that needed to be shot tomorrow and made sure that there were no problems. He set the alarm clock and lay down for a long time before falling asleep.
...
the next day.
Tan Yue was woken up by the alarm clock and felt that his head was groggy and he had not had a good rest. However, there was a startup ceremony to be held today, so he got up quickly.
After washing up, I suddenly woke up a lot, and the fatigue from not sleeping well was gone. I changed my clothes and went downstairs to have breakfast. I met many people from the crew and said hello.
"Good morning, Mr. Tan!"
Tan Yue asked: "Good morning, are you experiencing jet lag?"
"full HP resurrection!"
"Much better than when I got off the plane yesterday."
Tan Yue followed several people to the restaurant chatting, and Ma Guoliang and others happened to be eating too.
"How do you guys feel?"
Ma Guoliang, Fan Shan, and Zhang Shengli are in good condition. Xin Zhi and Jiao Cheng are in bad condition, but it does not affect their participation in the opening ceremony.
At 8:30 in the morning, everyone in the crew got on the bus and headed to the film and television base.
This film and television base is the largest film and television base in New York, and many blockbusters are shot from here.
The hotel they stayed in was very close to the film and television base, and it took less than half an hour to get there.
The group showed the prepared documents and entered the base.
The atmosphere quickly became lively.
"Damn, this scene looks so familiar."
"I feel the same way."
The crew members looked at the surrounding environment while walking, and of course they took out their mobile phones to take pictures.
"I remembered, isn't this a scene from a movie?"
Soon they arrived at the opening ceremony. It's still a simple stage, with a banner saying 'The crew is back on track'.
"Mr. Tan, everything is almost ready here." The person who spoke was the person in charge of picking up the plane.
"Arrange them and let me take a look around." Tan Yue took a look around the scene. All the necessary things such as pig heads and fish were ready.
After confirming that there was no problem, Tan Yue looked at the time and saw that it was getting late. The process was simple but time-consuming, and the necessary procedures still needed to be in place.
"Let the power-on ceremony begin."
The person in charge trotted off to explain the relevant matters to others.
After a while, a host came on stage and briefly introduced the content of the movie.
Because of the confidentiality, all that was said was irrelevant.
"Next, let us welcome Mr. Tan with a round of applause."
Amid applause, Tan Yue walked up to the stage and took the microphone: "Thank you all for coming to a foreign country to shoot a movie with me. It will be hard for you all in the next period of time. It is not easy for us to go abroad. I hope everyone Let’s work together to make this movie a success, and work together for our domestic movies. Congratulations on the successful launch of our movie!!”
"Finally, I would like to remind everyone that we must pay attention to safety now that we are abroad, and communicate with me or the deputy director in time if we encounter any problems."
After Tan Yue's speech, the leading actors such as Fan Shan and Ma Guoliang also came on stage to speak one by one. Almost everyone said a few words briefly without taking up too much time.
Then there is a process that only occurs when domestic crews start filming, offering incense and paying homage to all directions.
The staff who arranged the start-up ceremony began to spread incense in everyone's hands, and then bowed to everyone at the host's command.
Then they come forward one by one to insert incense, and of course there will be a boot red envelope.
