Chapter 255: The Organizing Committee Serves Softly
Kiwi employees temporarily put down what they were doing and all looked at the conference room.
Qin Xiaobao took the iPad, looked down at it for a while, and handed it to Xiaoming: "Here, read it louder."
"announcement!
Recently, we have noticed that many media, newspapers, and Twitter have posted comments about the impartiality of the film festival organizers. The organizing committee attaches great importance to it and launched an investigation. It was found that what happened happened to Chinese director Qin Xiaobao and his shortlisted
The work "This Man is from the Earth".
Due to the negligence of some staff members, without conducting detailed investigation, they listened to the one-sided opinions of certain groups and individuals, condoned protests outside the theater, and banned the screening of the film without authorization, which brought great trouble to Director Qin Xiaobao.
A lot of damage.
We deeply apologize for this.
The Berlin Film Festival is a stage open to the world. When such a situation occurs in a democratic society, the organizing committee has an unshirkable responsibility. All fans, journalists, and director friends must believe that the essence of the film festival has not changed.
.
But some people want to discuss it.
After discussion, in addition to apologizing to Director Qin Xiaobao, we still sincerely invite you to return to the film festival.
Announcement hereby - Berlin International Film Festival Organizing Committee"
"We won?" an employee asked.
"Yes! We won."
"Hahahaha, great."
"Mr. Qin is awesome!"
"The organizing committee actually apologized."
"Bullshit!"
Qin Xiaobao couldn't stand it any longer, and a smile broke out on his face: "The matter has finally been resolved. You can relax for a while and take a look at the media that have helped us in the past few days. Don't forget to thank us."
"Received." The employees were excited.
"Director Qin, how do you feel now?" Mr. Huang asked from the side.
"The heavy burden has been lifted off, and I feel relaxed." Qin Xiaobao even shook his body.
"Ha ha ha ha."
Several people returned to the conference room, all in a happy mood.
"Mr. Liu, please contact CCTV and see what to do next."
"Okay, I'll call right away."
What happens to CCTV in this matter, whether the other party apologizes or not, is not a matter that Kiwi can decide alone. It is politically correct to move in unison.
"What if CCTV asks you to go back and participate?" Mr. Huang asked.
"It's basically impossible!" Qin Xiaobao shook his head: "You must have all the pride you should have. You can leave when you ask and come when you ask. I don't want to lose face?
And if I said I would no longer participate, they would definitely consider it.
It would be a bit contradictory if I had to go.
Those who supported us before will definitely support us to the end and rely on our opinions, but they will definitely do things that embarrass us."
"Really?" Mr. Huang never thought about going back. It would be too embarrassing to come and leave immediately: "The attitude of the official media is very tough? It is really impossible to change the position with just an apology."
"It's a pity that the business can't continue. The movie is released for free and there is no chance of it being released in other countries."
"There is nothing you can do about it? But it doesn't matter? Your popularity has increased? Can you get support from the official media? A man who can make the film festival apologize? Director Qin." Mr. Huang said seriously: "We have a pleasant cooperation this time, right?"
"Of course," Qin Xiaobao will not forget the help the other party has provided: "It's quite pleasant."
"Then for your next work, give priority to cooperating with us? This is not too much to ask for, right?"
"Not too much, not too much." Qin Xiaobao stretched out his hand and shook his hand: "It's a pleasure to cooperate? I hope there will be a chance to continue."
"With your words, I feel relieved." Mr. Huang was very satisfied: "Okay, I have to go back to resume my life? I'll keep in touch when I have time."
"Okay, Mr. Huang, walk slowly."
"Stay."
After sending Mr. Huang out of the door, Qin Xiaobao returned to the office: "Everyone..."
Everyone looked up.
"The matter has ended successfully. I have a message to remind you that there will definitely be reporters coming to interview you. You can't talk nonsense. Do you understand?"
"clear!"
"Okay, let's get busy."
Xiang Yang called. The big dog owner was on his way over. An employee told him that they had apologized and couldn't wait to confirm. After getting Qin Xiaobao's affirmative answer, he was so excited that he yelled for a long time.
, then put down the sentence and got there immediately, and then hung up.
Liu Minghua came over with his mobile phone: "The leader's phone number is over there at Ziguang Pavilion."
Qin Xiaobao entered the conference room and closed the door: "Hello, leader, I am Qin Xiaobao."
"Director Qin, you are young and promising." A cheerful voice came.
"Thank you for your help this time. Otherwise, the other party would not admit his mistake so simply."
"That's because you took advantage of it. It's all been bullied. There's no reason to just watch. What's your plan next?"
"Follow the organization's arrangements."
"Tell me what you think first."
"Okay, I think an apology is acceptable. After all, China is a big country and a land of etiquette. If you bully me, I can't bear it. If you apologize sincerely, I won't hold on to you, otherwise I won't look stingy.
But just go back and compete. If you do something wrong, you will definitely be punished. If I don’t go there, I believe some foreign media reporters will criticize me. I guess there will still be fun to watch.”
"Director Qin, your idea is a bit biased." The leader smiled and said: "We didn't go because we wanted to see them lose face. We did it to remind them not to make mistakes again. It was also for the sake of other directors. We don't want them to go there.
Something like this will happen again."
"Yes, yes, the leader is right. I am just a small citizen. I only think about pleasure and grudges." Qin Xiaobao also laughed.
This leader is quite interesting.
"It's a good thing for young people to be motivated, but they have to pay attention to the scale. The wording can be gentler. Chinese writing is broad and profound, and soft knives are also knives." The leader has made it clear.
"I understand, I will think about it carefully."
After chatting for five minutes and receiving a lot of encouraging words, the communication ended.
Speaking of which, I was a little nervous. It seemed like I was a director-level official, and it was the first time in my life that I had dealt with such a big leader.
If both parties agree, things will be easier to handle.
He called Liu Minghua in, returned his phone to him, and conveyed the leader's message that what Kiwi wanted to do was very simple, just be a tool man.
As for how to write the Weibo announcement, Liu Minghua will take care of it.
"By the way, Director Qin, we are in great shape now. Why don't we take advantage of the opportunity and I'll call Hu Ge later to see if it's okay and meet tomorrow to have a chat."
"I can do it." Qin Xiaobao suddenly remembered that he had watched "The Hunting Ground" on Earth, which happened to be played by Hu Ge: "The meeting address should be arranged more secretly. Have you ever understood the other person's preferences, such as what color he likes and what he likes to drink?
Tea, what kind of furniture is at home."
Mr. Liu was stunned: "So much attention to detail!"
"Of course, when negotiating, you must make the other party feel comfortable and stress-free."
