Chapter 991 Going to the United States

Chen Ye, who was lying on the sofa in the living room playing with his phone, suddenly heard the sound of the door opening. He looked at the time and saw that it was already past ten o'clock. He shouted, "Dad, my mom is back."

"Okay," Chen's father came out of the study, "I'll go heat up some food for your mom."

The person who opened the door was Ye Wen. She dragged her tired body and threw her bag on the cabinet at the door, and changed into slippers, "I'm almost exhausted today."

"Why are you so late today?"

"There was an important meeting that lasted until nine o'clock."

After the meeting, Ye Wen returned to the office to process documents and was so busy that she forgot to check the time.

Ye Wen poured herself a glass of boiled water and drank it all. 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're still busy working overtime all day."

Ye Wen sat next to Chen Ye with a cup in her hand: "Your mother can still work for at least another 20 years."

"Yes, yes! You are a strong woman."

Ye Wen smiled and changed the subject: "How are you doing recently?"

"Every day I go to work and get off work, it's pretty good."

"Your work report is not up to standard."

Chen Ye put down his phone and pretended to be serious: "Reporting to Director Ye, the recent work situation is really good, just like usual, nothing happened."

"Stinky girl."

The mother and daughter laughed.

Ye Wen took a sip of water and felt that she was finally not so thirsty: "How is the preparation of your new movie, Mr. Tan?"

"How do you know?" Chen Ye didn't mention anything about Tan Yue's new movie at home this time.

"Have you forgotten what your mother does?"

Chen Ye patted his head. If "The Godfather" wants to make a movie, it will definitely register the copyright.

In order to know whether Tan Yue will have a new movie at the first time, Ye Wen specially arranged relevant staff to pay close attention to Tan Yue's dynamics.

When "The Godfather" registered the copyright information, Ye Wen also got the news at the first time.

Chen Ye replied: "It is estimated that it will start shooting soon. Mr. Tan went to attend the opening banquet tonight."

"It's really fast!" Ye Wen, who was originally a little tired, was immediately excited after hearing the news.

Tan Yue is now the leader of domestic films. There are countless directors in the domestic film circle, but he is the only one who can make domestic films have good results in the global film market.

The two movies can be said to have earned enough face for domestic films in the international film market. How can she not be excited to hear that the new movie will start shooting soon?

Now Tan Yue's movie is a banner of domestic films.

Chen Ye explained: "I don't know what the reason is this time, anyway, the progress of various preparations is much faster than before."

"That may be because they want to shoot the movie quickly." Ye Wen didn't think much about it.

"The food is ready, come and eat." Chen Ye came out of the kitchen with a bowl of porridge.

"Would you like to eat more?"

"I'm losing weight." Chen Ye picked up his phone and lay on the sofa again.

Ye Wen got up and washed her hands in the kitchen, then took the dishes to the living room and ate alone.

"Today's dishes are good, very delicious."

I don't know if it's because I'm too hungry or I'm in a good mood, but I feel that the food tonight is particularly delicious.

"Is it? I don't think it's different from the past." Chen Ye joked, "Dad, did you make it again for my mom?"

"No, it's still what we left over."

Ye Wen continued to eat.

June 1st, afternoon.

Two buses were parked in front of the Brilliant Entertainment Company.

Many people were carrying large and small bags and ready to get on the bus. Today, the crew of "The Godfather" will take a plane to New York.

In order to find a venue that is more suitable for the plot background, the shooting location this time was still chosen abroad.

The crew members are basically some old faces.

Due to time constraints, the crew was basically composed of old employees. Whenever Tan Yue formed a crew, they were basically composed of these people.

They were familiar with it and knew Tan Yue's shooting style.

"Send a message when you land."

"Don't forget the task assigned to you, my souvenir."

"I'll treat you to a drink when you come back."

Many people from the film department came out to see him off.

Zheng Tong looked at the time on his watch and arranged: "See who hasn't arrived yet, call them quickly, the car will leave soon, assistant director, go and count them."

At this time, Tan Yue was in the car in the parking lot, starting the car and preparing to leave.

Chen Ziyu, who was sitting in the co-pilot, asked: "How are the arrangements in New York?"

"It has been arranged. We will go directly to the hotel after getting off the plane."

Because the filming was to be filmed abroad, Zheng Tong sent people to New York early to arrange various things, including food, clothing, housing and transportation in life, on-site layout of the opening ceremony at work, and finding a suitable venue.

This was not the first time the crew went abroad, and the preparations were 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 and drove towards the airport.

More than an hour later, they arrived at the airport.

At this parting moment, Chen Ziyu held Tan Yue's hand: "Be careful abroad."

"Okay." Tan Yue nodded heavily.

"Also, you can't delay your rest because of work." This is also what Chen Ziyu is most worried about.

"You too, after I leave, you will handle the company's affairs by yourself, you must also remember to rest."

Chen Ziyu's working state is similar to Tan Yue, and he will not rest until he finishes his work.

"Then we must do this." Chen Ziyu said reluctantly: "Remember to call me after the plane lands."

The two hugged and said goodbye.

Tan Yue, Fan Shan, Ma Guoliang, Jiao Cheng and others came to the VIP lounge to wait.

These few people waiting outside to get on the plane will inevitably attract onlookers and affect public order.

Several people were flipping through the script in their hands.

From getting the script to the start of filming, it is still quite tight to master a role in such a short time, and they are also making full use of time.

After waiting for a while at the airport, all the crew of "The Godfather" boarded the 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 through the glass at the city that was getting smaller and smaller, and he was a little emotional for a while.

In order to shoot a film or TV series, I started traveling around the country, but now I need to go abroad to shoot.

Keeping improving is the best state.

In the past, there was a reason to shoot a good movie, 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 for me to come back."

At first, there were people talking, but the voices became smaller and smaller, and gradually no one spoke.

Tan Yue took out the storyboard script and read it. Like an actor, his time would be more tight. Even if he had memorized it all, he still had to get familiar with it. After eating on the plane, I felt my eyelids getting heavier and heavier. I didn't know when I fell asleep. When I opened my eyes again, the plane was about to land.

The voice of the stewardess on the radio sounded in the cabin, which roughly meant welcome to take this flight, the plane was about to land, and you couldn't run around.

The plane experienced a brief turbulence when it descended and landed safely.

After sitting on the plane for more than ten hours, many people sighed, "Finally landed."

Tan Yue and his group packed their things and got off the plane. They went through security checks and picked up their luggage. It took more than an hour to get out of the gate.

The staff who arranged to pick them up here saw Tan Yue and others with a sign.

"Mr. Tan."

"Thank you for your hard work." It was more than 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."

After more than ten hours of flight and jet lag, many people in the crew were not in a good mental state. There were one or two people with relatively strong reactions and their faces were very pale.

"Understood."

The group began to get on the bus with large and small bags.

After everyone got on the bus, two buses headed to the hotel.

There were not many people talking on the bus. Some continued to sleep with eye masks, and some silently looked at the scenery outside the window.

After all, it was the first time to come to this place.

Tan Yue asked, "How are the preparations going here?"

The person in charge, who was also the person who picked us up at the airport, replied, "The venue for tomorrow's opening ceremony has been set up, and there is no problem with the shooting venue."

Tan Yue nodded and stopped talking. He was not in a good state.

More than an hour later, the bus slowly stopped.

"Everyone, we have arrived at the hotel. Pack up and get off the bus."

Under the leadership of this person in charge, the group began to check in.

An hour passed in the blink of an eye.

After everyone checked in, the person in charge came to Tan Yue's room to report the situation.

"Have those who are not feeling well been sent to the hospital?"

"They have been sent."

"Okay, arrange for everyone to eat."

About half of the people came down to eat, and many people continued to rest in the hotel.

Tan Yue didn't have much appetite. He simply ate something and returned to his room. He took out his mobile phone and called Chen Ziyu.

He reported that he was safe as soon as the plane landed.

The phone was answered quickly.

"Have you arranged it over there?"

Tan Yue was lying on the sofa: "I just had dinner and am lying in my room."

Chen Ziyu looked at the time on the phone: "It should be evening over there now."

"It is evening. I didn't eat much of dinner. I went back to the room to adjust to the time difference."

"You should also rest quickly. There is still a start-up ceremony tomorrow morning."

Tan Yue said "hmm". He was indeed very tired: "I'll hang up the phone first. I'll go wash up."

"Have a good rest!" Chen Ziyu hung up the phone and continued to work on his work.

After washing up, Tan Yue didn't rush to sleep. After going through the content that needed to be filmed tomorrow and making sure that there were no problems, he set the alarm clock and tossed and turned for a long time before falling asleep.

The next day.

Tan Yue was awakened by the alarm clock. He felt dizzy and didn't rest well. However, there was still a start-up ceremony today, so he got up quickly.

After washing up, he instantly became much more awake, and the fatigue of not sleeping well was swept away. He changed his clothes and went downstairs to have breakfast. He met many people from the crew and greeted them one after another.

"Morning, Mr. Tan!"

Tan Yue asked, "Good morning, have you recovered from the jet lag?"

"Fully recovered!"

"Much better than when I got off the plane yesterday."

Tan Yue followed a few people to the restaurant while chatting, and Ma Guoliang and a few others were also eating.

"How do you feel?"

Ma Guoliang, Fan Shan, and Zhang Shengli were in good condition, while Xin Zhi and Jiao Cheng looked a little pale, but it did not affect their participation in the opening ceremony.

At 8:30 in the morning, all the crew members got on the bus and headed to the film and television base.

The film and television base is the largest film and television base in New York, and many blockbusters are shot 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 to enter the base.

The atmosphere soon became lively.

"Fuck, this scene looks so familiar."

"I have the same feeling."

The crew members walked and looked at the surrounding environment, and of course they took out their mobile phones to take pictures.

"I remember, isn't this the scene in that movie?"

Soon they arrived at the opening ceremony of "The Godfather". It was still a simple stage, and a banner read "Good luck to the Godfather crew".

"Mr. Tan, everything is almost ready here." The person who spoke was the person in charge of the airport pick-up.

"Arrange them, I'll take a look." Tan Yue looked around the scene and found that all the necessary things such as pig heads and fish were ready.

After confirming that there were no problems, Tan Yue saw that it was getting late. The process was simple but time-consuming, and the necessary procedures should still be followed.

"Let's start the opening ceremony."

The person in charge trotted to explain the relevant matters to others.

After a while, a host walked onto the stage and briefly introduced the content of the movie.

Because of confidentiality, all the content mentioned was irrelevant.

"Next, let's welcome Mr. Tan with applause."

Amidst the applause, Tan Yue walked onto the stage and took the microphone: "Thank you all for coming with me to shoot a movie abroad. It will be hard for you all in the next period of time. It is not easy for us to come abroad. As I said, I hope everyone will work together to make this movie well and work hard for our domestic movies. Congratulations on the start of our movie "The Godfather"!!"

"Finally, I would like to remind everyone that we are now abroad, so we must pay attention to safety. If we encounter any problems, please communicate with me or the assistant director in time."

After Tan Yue's speech, the leading actors such as Fan Shan and Ma Guoliang also spoke on stage one by one. Almost everyone said a few simple words and did not take up too much time.

Then there was a process that only domestic crews had when they started shooting, burning incense and worshipping all around.

The staff who arranged the scene of the start-up ceremony began to give incense to everyone, and then worshipped all around at the command of the host.

Then they went forward one by one to burn incense, and of course there would be red envelopes for the start-up.
