From then on, Han Beibei had one more vocal lesson in between the many cram schools. In Han Fei's opinion, this little girl only had three minutes of interest, and it would not take long for her to give up, so she didn't care.
On this day, Han Fei unexpectedly received a phone call.
"Teacher Han, long time no see."
On the other end of the phone, Teacher Han's voice was a little tired: "Long time no see, how are you doing? Do you have time to meet up?"
Han Fei knew that the only thing that Teacher Han could worry about was the charity foundation, so he agreed wholeheartedly.
So, at the Beijing Airport, Han Fei picked up this singer who had turned himself from a rich man into a loser by doing charity.
Teacher Han came alone this time. Han Fei took the suitcase from her hand and joked: "I'm relieved to see you haven't lost weight."
"Hey, I can't lose weight with my size." Teacher Han smiled and patted his belly.
In fact, Teacher Han was quite slim when she was young. Later, due to the reaction of illness and medication, her figure began to get out of shape.
"Congratulations, you have become the first Chinese filmmaker to win an Oscar." In the car, Teacher Han did not forget to congratulate you.
Han Fei smiled indifferently: "Hey, the best foreign language film is for the entire team. When will I win the Oscar for best actor, you can still congratulate me and it will be enough."
Teacher Han also laughed: "I read a lot of media saying that you are discouraged and are not going to make any more movies. What's going on?"
"Hey, that's nonsense. If I stop making movies, it's because, like you, I've found something that makes me happier than singing."
"Haha~~~" Teacher Han smiled happily.
First, he sent Teacher Han to the hotel to put her luggage, and then Han Fei took her to Bianyifang to eat roast duck.
At the dining table, Teacher Han refused to refuse anyone who came, and her mouth was full of oil when she ate. One and a half of the two roast ducks went into her stomach.
"Shutan, I haven't felt so good after eating for a long time." Teacher Han patted his belly and let out a long sigh of relief.
Han Fei was amused for a while: "You don't think so? Isn't it too miserable to be a charity?"
"Is it miserable? I think it's pretty good. Really, I've seen so many human tragedies, and I'm very satisfied now." Teacher Han said seriously.
After eating, Han Fei took Teacher Han directly to his villa. After sitting down, Teacher Han got straight to the point.
"If I really couldn't survive, I wouldn't be so shameless as to come to you. This is the information about the foundation's rescue activities. You should take a look at it first."
What Teacher Han said was really not polite, because over the years, Han Fei has continued to donate to the foundation. Donations of tens of millions every year are completely unimaginable for an enterprise of the size of "Feiniao Film and Television"
.
Han Fei frowned when he took it and turned to the first page. This was a rescue plan for leukemia patients. It contained details of the rescue targets. Compared with the children in the orphanage last time, the situation of these leukemia patients was even worse.
desolate.
According to the information, the only way to cure leukemia is to undergo a bone marrow transplant. However, the number of bone marrow that can actually be matched is extremely rare. Many direct blood relatives have bone marrow that does not match, and a bone marrow transplant requires a large amount of money.
Most patients can only be maintained with medication.
"Why are leukemia drugs so expensive?" Han Fei frowned slightly.
A bottle of medicine costs more than 20,000 yuan, and it is only for one course of treatment. Why can’t ordinary families afford it?
Teacher Han shook his head with a wry smile: "These drugs are imported from abroad and cannot be developed domestically. Naturally, they can sell them as much as they want. As far as I know, the prices of imported drugs given to us by many Western pharmaceutical companies in China are higher than those in Japan and South Korea."
It needs to be higher.”
"These bastards." Han Fei was so angry that he slammed the table. Regardless of humanitarianism, this was unreasonable in terms of business rules alone. How many times the population of China is that of Japan and South Korea? Logically speaking, it should be possible to win.
A more favorable price is the right one. How can it be higher than the price of medicines in Japan and South Korea?
"Teacher Han, just tell me, how much does it cost?"
Teacher Han stretched out his finger frankly: "Thirty million, the foundation has also raised some through social donations, but you should also know that we private foundations and companies will not donate, there is no exposure, and the power of social donations
It’s still too small.”
In fact, Teacher Han's biggest worry is that the foundation has no exposure. Ordinary people don't even know about many fundraisers, while many official charity associations can always get a lot of media exposure resources.
"No problem." Han Fei could still afford 30 million, but a fleeting thought flashed through his mind, and Han Fei said again: "Teacher Han, do you think this will work? During the rescue process, we
Shoot a documentary and then put it on a video website for promotion, wouldn’t it increase the exposure?”
Teacher Han's eyes lit up: "This is a good note."
Originally, Han Fei wanted to keep Teacher Han to sit for a while, but this teacher was also impatient and had to go back and hurry up to get the plan out, so he had to leave it to her.
In fact, Han Fei was very envious of Teacher Han's attitude towards life. Everyone in the world was burdened by fame and wealth, including him, but Teacher Han was the only one who lived a transparent life.
If people are divided into three realms, Han Fei, like all ordinary people, is still in the lowest level of the real world, while Teacher Han has reached the second level of the spiritual world, and what she pursues is universal love.
As for the third level, that is God.
Back at the company, Han Fei transferred the money directly from the company's account to Teacher Han's foundation. In addition, if he wanted to make a documentary, he would definitely not be able to do it alone.
So I called Jiang Qinghou and the others. It turned out that these guys were probably bored at home, so they all agreed to come to the company in advance.
Han Fei once wondered whether these guys came back so actively to avoid "paying public food".
After Jiang Qinghou and the others came back, Teacher Han also sent over their plan. After reading the plan, Jiang Qinghou proposed: "Isn't making a documentary not influential enough? How about making a movie? Anyway, we have nothing to do now."
Ergan."
Han Fei rolled his eyes for a while, looking at what he said, it was like beating a child on a rainy day, just for free.
However, the speaker was unintentional, but the listener was interested. Everyone in the crew all said that this was a good idea, but in fact it was just idle. I haven't started work for a month, and my hands are itching!
"Okay, let's settle it first, but we still have to shoot the documentary. Since it involves realistic themes, we have to shoot the material first. We can't just make it up, right?" Han Fei saw that everyone was so interested, so he didn't stop him.
, as they say, idleness is idleness, and it is quite boring when you are alone.
So in mid-April, Han Fei set off with the crew in a mighty manner. The first stop was the Magic City, where there are several corresponding hospitals of the foundation, and many leukemia patients are treated here.
When Teacher Han saw such a large group of people like Han Fei, he couldn't help but click his tongue: "What do you think of making a documentary?"
Jiang Qinghou smiled and said: "This time, the documentary has been changed into a movie."
Han Fei began to explain to Teacher Han. Teacher Han and the staff of the foundation were all confused. Is it so casual? Doesn’t it mean that making a movie is a very rigorous matter?
Because it involves privacy issues between patients and the hospital, the foundation staff are responsible for communicating with them in advance. Most of the patients are quite cooperative. Of course, there are also some patients who are unwilling to show up. Han Fei decided to use close-ups for all filming.
Just shoot the lower body.
As soon as the hospital heard that a film crew was coming to film, they quickly reported it to the hospital leadership. After learning about the situation of Han Fei's film crew, they naturally received them with joy.
This is a crew that won an Oscar. If you tell anyone about it, you can brag about it for a lifetime. The hospital even had a dispute over who should represent the hospital in the scene.
In fact, shooting in the hospital is very simple, just shoot some scenes in the hospital and let the doctor introduce the situation of leukemia and leukemia patients.
The entire filming took less than twenty minutes, which left the hospital representative a bit unfinished.
"Ahem, Dr. Wrinkle performed very well and perfectly. Thank you for your cooperation. Now, I will go and take pictures of the patient first." Jiang Qinghou said solemnly.
While Dr. Wrinkle was happy, he also did not forget to promote himself: "Director Jiang, do you think I have any talent for acting? I like acting very much..."
After finally getting rid of Dr. Wrinkle's entanglement, Jiang Qinghou led the crew to start filming the patients. To be honest, before coming here, no one thought that leukemia patients would be so painful.
Patients grit their teeth before each chemotherapy session, and some even have the courage to undergo chemotherapy only after their family members provide psychological support.
Even during debridement, although local anesthesia was used, the patient's wailing after the anesthesia expired still shocked the crew.
"So, leukemia is so painful?" This was a thought shared by everyone in the crew.
As the filming continued, many patients and family members who were originally unwilling to disclose their family situations in front of the camera began to trust the crew and began to tell some of their stories.
For example, there is a couple. The girl was diagnosed with leukemia when she was five years old. The father drives a van to deliver goods to people, and the mother works as a nanny in Shanghai. The couple saves money and saves some money over the years.
, however, six rounds of chemotherapy alone cost more than 300,000.
The couple borrowed money from all the relatives they could borrow from, and owed a huge debt. But when their daughter's life was at stake, the couple gritted their teeth and said with tears: "Treatment, we must treat it. We can't let our children not see the world."
It was so colorful and colorful, but it left with pain.”
This situation is relatively common among leukemia patients. The high cost of medicine and surgery has made many families breathless. Even some middle-class families have begun to sell houses and cars, not to mention some low-income families. Some even directly
Go back and wait to die.
In addition, regarding drug prices, Han Fei also heard a statement. Some patients said that there are related generic drugs in India that have exactly the same effect, but the price of the drugs is more than ten times cheaper than imported drugs from the West.
So Han Fei started to search for information on the Internet and found that it was indeed the case. He also discovered something. Someone once had leukemia and bought medicine in India. Later, when some patients knew about it, they began to entrust him to help bring medicine.
More and more people were entrusted with it. Later, this person was reported by the pharmaceutical company and was detained.
Later, the matter became very serious. After going to court, many patients began to plead for him and jointly submitted letters of petition.
"Hey, what do you think about using this matter as the starting point of the story?" Han Fei printed out the information and showed it to Jiang Qinghou and the others.
Jiang Qinghou and others felt their eyes light up as soon as they saw it: "This is good, it is dramatic, contradictory and conflicting, and there is a collision between human nature and law."
"The only question is, will this thing pass trial?"
Well, this is what everyone is worried about. China’s review system has been criticized by film and television practitioners, but no one can stand up to the General Administration.
Han Fei was also a little worried. This story undoubtedly reminded him of "I'm Not the God of Medicine", but the reason why "I'm Not the God of Medicine" passed the trial was mainly attributed to one person, the screenwriter "Han Family Daughter", yes,
This is the daughter of the famous Mr. Han.
Otherwise, if director Wen Muye is a new director, how can he pass the review with such a subject? He will be shot at the first level.
"No matter what, let's get the script out first!" Han Fei gritted his teeth.
Naturally, his current status cannot be compared with Master Han, but he can still speak in front of the leaders.
"Okay, let's do it!" Jiang Qinghou was naturally the happiest. With this kind of subject, the director had too much room for development, and it was a subject he had never been exposed to before.
After determining the main structure of the story, everyone started brainstorming, and the story of the script was filled in bit by bit.
A group of people filmed during the day and returned to the hotel at night to catch up on the script. The biggest headache was that they were able to shoot new material every day. A story that I thought was good yesterday looked at the new material the next day and felt that it was still good. So I revised it over and over again.
Countless times.
Finally, at the end of June, Han Fei got the first version of the script. The next day, he went to Beijing to submit the script for review.
Then not long after, the script came back.
"Boss, you guys have sent me such a good script, isn't it a little too shady?"
In response to Han Fei's complaint, the leader laughed and scolded: "You are really thick-skinned. Yes, the script is indeed well written, but the image of the police here is not very good, and we dare not criticize it!"
Han Fei scratched his head for a while: "Have you read this script? But how do you ask us to change it? If this is to praise virtue, the whole film will be unwatchable."
"Which of your kid's scripts have I not read? You are using your brain. I am not asking you to sing your praises, but you must at least remain neutral."
Leaders speak with sincerity and sincerity.
If Han Fei still doesn't understand that all these years have been in vain, he is just about to pack up and leave.
But the leader stopped him: "You can be the guest of honor for this year's Huabiao Award."
"It's co-authored, and I don't have a share in it?" Han Fei complained.
"Just be content. Look at the ones you filmed. Which one has the main theme? Do you still want to win an award for this?"
Han Fei rolled his eyes secretly. It was just the main theme. It wasn't that he didn't know how to shoot, he just didn't want to shoot it yet.
