Chapter 819 Successful evacuation of overseas Chinese
In the conference hall on the third floor of the Great Hall of the People, the 2015 Chinese Film Producers Association and Distribution and Exhibition Association Board of Directors were held here.
Tang An, as the vice chairman of the two associations, was also invited to attend.
The Producers Association is composed of nearly a hundred state-owned and private enterprises in the industry. Basically, everyone came to this annual meeting. As the chairman of the association, Han Sanping appeared in front of the public again after a long absence.
The president of the Producers Association is still Han Sanping, who will be in office for a few more years before he is succeeded by Ming Zhenjiang, director of the Bayi Film Studio.
"Director Han."
Tang An greeted everyone.
"Director Tang is here."
"Dr. Tang is really amazing. The movie won't be released for more than three months, and now it's so popular."
"Mr. Tang is so lucky. This time we encountered an accident, right on the edge of the Red Sea."
Everyone laughed and talked about the recent incident.
Tang An looked serious, "This can't be called good luck. I would rather not have this luck."
"Dr. Tang is right, you cannot put your own interests at the expense of others' suffering." Han Sanping nodded.
"Some people have made very bad remarks recently, so you have to be careful."
Tang An smiled and said, "Don't worry, Mr. Han, the military and overseas Chinese in "Operation Red Sea" are all positive and inspirational."
"Of course I believe this, but you'd better complete the post-processing and submit it for review as soon as possible without delay."
"I understand, the film will be almost complete in a month." Tang An clicked on the picture.
"Dr. Tang has taken advantage of the right time, place and people for this Operation Red Sea. It's time to break the record again." Yu Dong said with a smile.
Tang An waved his hand, "It still depends on the audience's response. We can't be sure until it's released."
"Haha, Mr. Tang is so humble."
"Operation Red Sea" has every advantage. As long as there are no problems with the movie itself, a big hit is inevitable.
Unless this evacuation fails, then "Operation Red Sea" will inevitably be affected, and it will be negative.
But this shouldn't be possible.
After chatting for a while, the meeting began.
Deputy Director of Optoelectronics Tong, Director Zhang of the Film Bureau, Director Han Sanping of the Producers Association, and Executive Director Ming Zhenjiang presided over the meeting.
As a cliché, let’s first talk about the achievements and some data of the film industry last year, and then compare the data from this year to last year.
We came to the conclusion that the older the film market, the better, and then discussed each topic.
There is video recording at the scene, and there are many media.
The media began to ask questions, first asking these leaders formulaic questions one by one, and then others in turn.
On the topic of young directors, Tang An said that while establishing a unique artistic style, he must adhere to the laws of the market.
But then a reporter asked a pointed question about the discordant voices on the Internet.
"Hello, Mr. Tang, the situation in our country is deteriorating and our compatriots are facing life-threatening danger. At this time, you are using this matter to promote the new film "Operation Red Sea". Do you mean to enrich the country and make money? Many people on the Internet also express their opinions to you.
question!"
Tang An was not surprised that someone asked about this, and said without hesitation, "I don't know where the saying that it is difficult to make a country rich comes from. The current situation is that I made a movie about evacuating overseas Chinese near the Red Sea. In reality, the area near the Red Sea
It was just a coincidence that something similar happened."
"Then why, Mr. Tang, do you want to take this opportunity to promote your..."
Tang An stretched out his hand and interrupted him, "I did not take advantage of this opportunity to promote too much. The current popularity and news on the Internet are all participated by netizens and reporters. The masses did not show too much concern at this time, which is also
Because we believe in the country, we must also believe in the country, and our overseas compatriots will return safely."
"That......"
The reporter wanted to say something else, but Tang An interrupted him again.
"I think this so-called consumption of patriotic feelings and the difficulty of making money for the country is simply nonsense. I don't know who would have such an idea."
"Throughout the history of global film, there are countless movies involving historical events. There are also movies like "Schindler's List" in the West. Doesn't that mean that this movie is also consuming Jewish patriotic feelings?"
"The "Operation Red Sea" I made is just a movie about the evacuation operation. It expresses the courageous and fearless heroism of our military and the spirit of the rise of a great power."
...
Time gradually passed, and the topic of evacuation and "Operation Red Sea" was still being discussed.
Tang An's meeting and subsequent interviews were all reprinted online.
But for some people, no matter what Tang An said, it was useless.
It is difficult to change people's minds, and Tang An does not expect to gain all the favor.
The well-known public intellectual Yu Pengfei now firmly believes that it is difficult to make money for the country, but it is useless no matter what he says.
As Weibo celebrities, it is well known that they also need a large number of fans and traffic, and they cannot change their tune easily.
They even wish that the evacuation of overseas Chinese would fail. Then the evacuation would fail and suffer heavy losses. However, in Tang An's movie, the neighborhood army kills and successfully evacuates the overseas Chinese. Then it will be funny and a new hot topic will come.
However, at this time, our evacuation operation also ushered in a major breakthrough.
On March 29, the Linxi ship arrived at the Port of Aden in Yemen and, with the active cooperation of the Consulate General in Aden, evacuated the first batch of 122 Chinese citizens stationed in Yemen.
On March 30, the second group of more than 400 people left Yemen's Hetai on the Weiyi ship and arrived in Xiangjiang. At this point, all overseas Chinese who needed to evacuate were evacuated from Yemen.
All overseas Chinese have been evacuated, but this has not happened yet. my country has begun to assist other countries in evacuating their overseas Chinese.
On April 2, the Linyi ship carried 225 expatriates from 10 countries including Pakistan in Yemen and arrived in Djibouti safely from the Yemeni port of Aden, including citizens of Singapore, the United Kingdom, Austria and other countries.
The last batch of U.S. Special Operations Forces members evacuated from Anaid Air Force Base in Yemen on March 30. The United States was unable to help its citizens in Yemen evacuate. The spokesperson of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs stated that it hoped that rescue forces from other countries could help the United States evacuate.
Overseas Chinese.
As the boss of the earth and undoubtedly the largest country, the United States has used fleets and helicopters to evacuate its citizens in previous evacuation operations with great fanfare, but this time it was unable to help its citizens evacuate.
Finally, this group of Americans, as well as the last batch of more than 300 citizens from other countries, were picked up by the Russian navy.
As the boss of Earth, this is the first time in so many years that I have to ask others to help me with this matter.
After worrying for several days, domestic audiences finally felt relieved.
As for the fact that the United States has no power to take away its own citizens, the domestic audience also complained and despised it.
The Americans were unable to evacuate their own people, but China was not only able to safely evacuate hundreds of overseas Chinese, but also helped hundreds of people from other countries evacuate.
This contrast has greatly enriched the people's national self-confidence and full sense of pride.
The only pity is that there are only a few pieces of news, so I can't see the process with my own eyes. Netizens are paying more and more attention to Tang An's "Operation Red Sea" and are eager to see with their own eyes how exciting the evacuation process in the movie is.
