A week later.

Crack, Crack, in the studio full of lighting equipment, in the green photography back panel, Li Xiaole in a black suit sat on a round stool, next to Zhang Yimou and Wang Chaoge in the same suit, while Han Sanpin sat in the center, looking at the direction of the camera lens.

"Yes, keep this smile and be in very good condition~" Xu Guotao, a photographer from the Global Times, kept pressing the shutter and slapped, and reminded:

"Director Li, you are the youngest. You have to be more excited. Don't be too rigid when you move. By the way, try making a scene photography gesture, which is the action of putting the index fingers and thumbs of both hands into a frame. By the way, close your left eye~"

Li Xiaole poses as he said, closes his left eye and looks at the camera through the hand frame. The flashes are constantly flashing, and there are continuous crackling sounds. He can't help but mutter in his heart:

"Isn't this posture too old-fashioned? It's the same every time. This photo must be very pretending when taken. Thinking of this, I couldn't help but put down my hand and suggested:

"Can we relax a little bit, the theme of the Olympics is too serious..."

The four are now shooting the cover photo of the "Olympic Opening Ceremony Big Surprise" for the Global Times. This is the cover title of the next issue of the Global Times, which is to cooperate with the live broadcast of the CCTV Olympic Games.

"Okay, but, you have to stand in the middle of Director Li~" Xu Guotao thought for a while, nodded, and said with one hand: "Director Li is standing in the middle, Director Zhang, Director Wang, President Han, you are all lively and have some expectant expressions. Design your look. Mr. Han, you hug Director Li's shoulders."

"No problem~" Several people responded with laughter. Zhang Yimou on the left gave a thumbs up, Wang Chaoge made a bowing expression with both hands, while Han Sanpin was in charge of Li Xiaole's shoulders looked restrained and serious.

"No, Mr. Han is still too serious. Imagine that China won the first place in the gold medal list in this Olympics." Xu Guotao said with a smile. Han Sanpin immediately grinned as he heard it. Xu Guotao immediately pressed the shutter with a click. The film freezes the picture and becomes the cover of the next issue of the Global Times.

For ordinary people, the Global Times published by the People's Daily is more like a political newspaper, and there are few cultural and sports topics that can be put on the front page. However, the opening ceremony of this Olympic Games has attracted great attention. In addition to the very interesting cover photo, they are more concerned about the content.

Most of the interviews were answered by Han Sanpin, but the specific topics were about Li Xiaole. The reporter in the report asked: "This opening ceremony was jointly produced by directors Li Xiaole and Zhang Yimou. Are there any disputes between the two?" "How much investment is this opening ceremony?" "Can you reveal the exciting content of the opening ceremony, such as the ignition method?"

Han Sanpin's answer was very cautious: "I believe that these two Chinese best directors will bring you the best opening ceremony performance. Disagreement? Of course, this will not be the two directors are modest and peaceful people, and even if they are arguing, they are only about artistic creation."

"I can only say that the investment issues at the opening ceremony are the highest-standards in previous sessions. A large part of them are sponsored by Black Pearl Film and Television Company. Our national enterprises are increasingly willing to give back to the country and society. It can be said that the national event of the Olympics has brought together each of us~~"

Han Sanpin also revealed a news, and he specifically mentioned in the interview: "This time Black Pearl Company participated in the bid for exclusive broadcast of the Olympics in North America on the American TV station. If Black Pearl Company wins the bid, it will be the first time that our country's TV station will broadcast the Olympics overseas. This will be an excellent opportunity to showcase our country's style."

The last question from the reporter was to ask Li Xiaole and Zhang Yimou: "Do you ask the two directors, do you think the opening ceremony of this Olympic Games will be loved by foreign audiences, especially those of the world-class powers such as the United States and Japan. Can you predict the ratings of their viewing ceremony?"

Zhang Yimou answered this very low-key: "I know that the opening ceremony of the Atlanta Olympics has a rating of 27,32 in the United States and Japan... I think we should be higher than them, and can reach about 15,30..."

Li Xiaole's answer was much more confident: "There should be 25 in the United States, and 40 in Japan should be. The effect of this opening ceremony is far better than the level of previous sessions. I believe that the ratings will surpass any previous session."

This answer seems nothing to domestic audiences and takes it for granted. However, after the news spread to the United States through the Internet, everyone who sees it was funny. It is not that this is not bragging, but that the bulls are flying in the sky. The opening ceremony of the Olympics held by China exceeded that of Athens, the birthplace of last year's Olympics? This Chinese director is obviously promoting the world influence of his country.

You should know that when the opening ceremony of the Beijing Olympics was broadcast, it was the morning in the eastern United States, and there was no time to watch it...

The media, who were originally angry that Li Xiaole had not taken away this year's Oscar for Best Director, began to sarcastically sarcastically at this report, began to sarcastically sarcastically at this Jesus. Many people were not optimistic about the so-called "specials exceed previous years". Zhang Yimou and Li Xiaole are both film directors and they are completely incompatible with the performances in the square. The New York Times published a commentary article saying:

"Maybe Li Xiaole is the hottest movie director in the world at present, but whether he can control the live performance phalanx of thousands of people is still a question. After all, live broadcast is different from movies. If there is a problem, you can't call cut~!"

The famous sports commentators also expressed their opinions on the matter on their blogs, and the famous NBA commentator "Quick Mouth" Ray Cole said:

"Hey~~This Chinese boy is really interesting. Although he conquered the Oscars, it doesn't mean he can conquer us American sports audiences. It's like even though China is a table tennis champion, it can never defeat American basketball~~

He shouted a declaration with a rating of over 25% early, which seemed to be to boost morale by his country. Perhaps he made a statement to the Olympic Organizing Committee to bid for the Olympic Games broadcast? Please ~ Can anyone tell these Chinese people? This is business, flattery is useless.”

However, fans of Lee Jesus don’t think so. They seem to expect Lee Crazy to create more miracles, including the opening ceremony of this Olympics~~ Since Lee Jesus can conquer the Oscars with a Bengal tiger and an Indian boy, why can’t he lead 15,000 people to conquer the global audience?

As a loyal fan of Li Xiaole, many Chinese and black netizens left messages to express their support: "Why can't Chinese hold an opening ceremony? Atlanta's opening ceremony is just like that?" "I don't think there is anything Americans are proud of. Their attentiveness to the opening ceremony at Atlanta is far less than the large-scale show in Las Vegas."

What unexpectedly is that Li Xiaole also received support from many American big directors. Spielberg mentioned this topic in an interview, and he strongly supported Li Xiaole:

"The best movie I watched last year was "Pi's Fantasy Drift", and the best TV series was "Sherlock". Four months after the weak country, I would not be surprised that I could see the best large square performance. I believe that director Zhang Yimou and director Li Xiaole will work together to make the large square performance reach a peak."

David Finch's words were even better. He left a message on his blog: "There were people giving speeches at the Athens Olympics last time, and there were group performances of sculptures. These are all displays of national culture. I think there may be a large group of Terracotta Warriors and Horses in Beijing this year, and then Qin Shihuang drove a carriage out to light the fire~~Don't you think this is cool?"

Obviously, the directors of the Directors' Union all gave great support to Li Xiaole, the strike leader.

In the American TV industry, it has a different attitude. Almost everyone is very funny about Li Xiaole's remarks about bidding for the opening ceremony of the Olympics. Although Pirates ranks among the top ten in the United States, their strength is far inferior to the four major TV networks. They also want to bid? Is Li Xiaole telling a joke?

The overwhelming discussions and reports from the American media in the past few days have also caused headaches for the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television. Director Liu even called to criticize Han Sanpin:

"How can you promote it so high-profile? You have to know that this is not a movie from your China Film Festival. Your method will only make people criticized. The leaders of the State Council have heard these news and have called me. You must restrain yourself and not do anything that damages the country's image."

Han Sanpin could only smile bitterly. The interview with the Global Times was also arranged by the organization. What Li Xiaole and Zhang Yimou said only represents their personal opinions, so how could it damage the country's image? But what are the solutions? The major leaders of the central government have spoken, and he could only publicly criticize Li Xiaole in a meeting...

Amid all kinds of criticisms, time finally came to the day of the North American broadcasting rights bidding conference.

Li Xiaole came to Zhongying an hour earlier. When he and Zhang Yimou and Han Sanpin went out, he saw Han Xiaoli, who had always been whispering, sitting in the living room with a large bundle of incense next to him. He felt that this party member, Mr. Han, was also a little nervous this time and wanted to burn incense and ask the Bodhisattva to hold it. This bid would be successful.
