Chapter 364 Election

Hearing the leader's words, Chen Kaizi blushed instantly, but he did not dare to say a word. He could only pick up his meager plan and left in despair.

Wu Yuchen also saw that Kaizi's face was a little gloomy when he walked out, and he no longer walked with the same majestic spirit as when he walked in. Instead, he looked a little embarrassed, so he knew that the outcome for him was not good.

But thinking about some of the rumors he heard in his previous life, Wu Yuchen didn't find it strange. What the Olympic Organizing Committee wants is a complete and feasible plan, a plan that is accurate to the screws. It has made a lot of unreliable empty talk about Chen Kaige floating in the sky, no matter how well-written his speeches are. Well, no matter how passionate you talk, you will not be considered by the Olympic Organizing Committee, and you will naturally lose the election.

At this moment, a staff member walked up to Wu Yuchen and said respectfully: "Director Wu, your team is next."

"Okay, please help us move the two models in first~"

"It should!"

Looking at the staff moving the model, Wu Yuchen smiled. Kaizi came out in just 20 minutes. The time saved was just convenient for them to arrange the props.

Wu Yuchen wore a beige casual suit, a black shirt, and jeans. He was calm and casual, looking energetic.

Lao Mouzi, on the other hand, wore a pair of trousers with the Olympic LOGO and a red jacket on his upper body, just to get a good start. The color red means a good start.

When the leader saw the two people coming in, he also smiled and said: "Director Wu, Director Zhang, I am looking forward to your Bird's Nest model!"

Wu Yuchen smiled when he heard this: "I hope I can satisfy everyone. Our team has fully prepared for this opening and closing ceremony. This book should be able to solve all kinds of problems that everyone can think of..."

While Wu Yuchen was talking, the staff distributed the original plan in Chinese and English versions that they had prepared and bound into a volume to each judge. There were very complete plans for the 22 projects inspected by the Olympic Organizing Committee. Statement, each link also has a corresponding emergency plan, which is very thoughtful. These judges only looked through it roughly, and they couldn't help but express their excitement.

The leader couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction. Although he said a lot, he did a good enough job! And to participate in the election, you must have this confidence!

It stands to reason that the first round is only the presentation and evaluation of the creative part, but the team of Wu Yuchen and Lao Mouzi are obviously far more prepared than other teams and have gone further!

In the previous life, Lao Mouzi's team naturally could not come up with so much at this time, but because of Wu Yuchen's influence, they have often communicated with Wu Yuchen in the past six months, which is equivalent to telling them the final answer and effect directly, so the plan What we did was far better than what we did at the same time in the previous life.

The leader smiled: "Director Wu, Director Zhang, if you are ready, let's start!"

When Wu Yuchen came up, he sang first:

"What a joy it is to have friends from far away!

This is our welcome ceremony!

2008 fou players formed a ready fou-beating square, which made a shocking sound. The white lights on the fou flashed in sequence to form a countdown number. Amidst the thunderous sound of the fou, the entire audience shouted the countdown to 20 o'clock as the numbers changed. 2008 actors beat the fou and sang, reciting "It's such a joy to have friends come from far away" to express their welcome to Olympic athletes and guests from all over the world! "

It was also the beginning of singing, but at this time the judges were very happy with Wu Yuchen. Unlike Chen Kaizi, who recited poems just to express his joy and had nothing to do with the plan, Wu Yuchen's recital cut into the theme and was itself a part of the plan. He used this very representative sentence of Confucius to express his gratitude to the people of the world. The welcome was naturally satisfying to the judges.

Listening to Wu Yuchen's story, Lao Mouzi also smiled. Regarding this idea, their team actually struggled for a long time at the beginning. Some people said to use drums, some said to use fans, and some suggested using long guns, but Lao Mouzi was not satisfied. After suffering BJ's 8-minute loss, he repeatedly emphasized that Be new and don’t fall into the old routine.

Wu Yuchen proposed to him the fou, a percussion instrument, and singing while playing the fou made the trip possible, which helped Lao Mouzi find the right direction. There are many similar situations in the plan. He said that Wu Yuchen contributed a lot to this plan sincerely, and it really helped them a lot. Therefore, he really has no objection at all to co-directing this Olympics with Wu Yuchen, only grateful.

Wu Yuchen's explanation immediately drew the judges into this fantasy scene, and the subsequent welcome fireworks, dreamy five rings and other links still followed the statements...

After Wu Yuchen narrated the welcome ceremony chapter, Lao Mouzi stood up, and then he talked about the splendid civilization in the first chapter of the literary performance. With pen, ink, paper, and inkstone, the four treasures of the study, the essence of heaven and earth was gathered to unite the five thousand people of the Chinese nation. Years of civilization are displayed in the scrolls of the pen and condensed into human treasures.

All the judges listened attentively. During this period, Lao Mouzi not only talked about creativity, but also talked about the general implementation of some plans around the Bird's Nest model, how to use lighting, and what effect to achieve. They have already made plans, and also Some special effect lights were specially hung on it to match.

At this time, Lao Mouzi became excited, dancing and gesticulating, which also completely aroused the emotions of the judges.

The leader looked at the scene in front of him. Wu Yuchen and Lao Mouzi didn't say a word of nonsense. Not only did they let everyone hear the creative ideas they wanted, but they were also pragmatic and specific. He also described the various creative designs vividly and in detail.

Think about Chen Kaige's previous poem and a "heroic article". It was so amazing. The contrast with the down-to-earth Wu Yuchen and Lao Mouzi team was too obvious. There was no comparison at all!

"Our theme is 'Dream, Pursuit, Flying', which aims to show great feelings, great culture, great imagination and great romance. So we designed a colorful phoenix feather as a symbol throughout, and the torch is shaped like a colorful feather; then the phoenix is ​​introduced to the five continents and sent to the five continents for global transmission.

In order to match the design of the Bird's Nest, the torch stand will be shaped like a giant bird with its head slightly inserted into the Bird's Nest Stadium, and the giant bird's mouth will be where the torch will be finally lit.

Everyone enters the venue to see that there is no torch. It's empty!

Then the feather burns and turns into a phoenix flying around the venue. This is the torch. After being passed for one or two years, the phoenix flying around the world . Then when he finished, when he flew to that position, the torch holder was spread out from the bottom like a fan, and it was the torch.

The phoenix is ​​a sign of good luck in our East, and it is also a lucky animal in Western mythology. Using the phoenix to light the Olympic torch can be said to be "God follows people's wishes", and "the giant bird returns to the nest" can be said to be a return to nature, which is natural. "

Listening to Wu Yuchen talking about feathers and phoenixes, the leader laughed: "I just talked about why the 'Bird's Nest' is not called the 'Phoenix Nest'. It's really a coincidence that we thought of the same thing and you used this idea."

At this time, Wu Yuchen was talking about the idea of ​​the last and most important ignition ceremony of the opening ceremony - the phoenix returns to the nest!

In the previous life, the idea used in the ignition ceremony of the Beijing Olympics was Li Ning running in the air to light the Olympic flame. But in fact, according to some revelations afterwards, the "Phoenix Returns to the Nest" plan was actually the main plan at that time.

However, just 9 days before the opening ceremony, the "Phoenix Returns to the Nest" ignition plan was secretly photographed and exposed by a reporter from South Korea's SBS TV station. Once announced, it was like a heavy bomb, catching the Olympic Committee off guard. In addition to the Beijing Olympic Committee publicly expressing regret and disappointment, the International Olympic Committee was also shocked and incredible.

For a world event that has attracted worldwide attention, whether it is the performance program or the method of lighting the main torch, this is the top secret of all previous Olympic Games. The purpose is to leave suspense for the world audience and wait until the opening day to give the world people a surprise.

Therefore, the content of the opening ceremony of each Olympic Games will be highly confidential. From the chief director and program planning team to all performers, staff, and media, even venue construction workers and equipment technicians, they must strictly abide by the principle of confidentiality. This has been implemented by everyone for many sessions. This has never happened in the past, and the shameless South Korean media did it!

In desperation, Lao Mouzi and others could only immediately start the reserve plan, which is to run in the air to light the sacred flame, which is much more mediocre than the Phoenix Returns to the Nest. Although it can be considered a perfect ending, many netizens can't help but imagine what would happen if a more brilliant Phoenix Returns to the Nest was adopted?

Now, there is a better Phoenix Returns to the Nest plan. Wu Yuchen first proposed this one. Lao Mouzi fell in love with it and designed this idea with his team. The judges on the scene also smiled and nodded.

Finally, Wu Yuchen concluded: "Our team just wants to express to the world 'who we are' and 'we are a family with you' through the opening ceremony, so that the same world and the same dream can be recognized and resonated by the whole world here!"

After speaking, Wu Yuchen and Lao Mouzi looked at each other, and then bowed to the judges together.

"Good!" The leader said a good word loudly, and then took the lead in applauding. The other judges quickly followed suit. Obviously, Wu Yuchen and Lao Mouzi's story just now made them very satisfied!

Hearing these applause and seeing the judges' reactions, Wu Yuchen and Lao Mouzi were also very happy at this time. This careful preparation was not in vain!

"Director Wu, Director Zhang, we, the judging panel, have seen your proposals. They really gave us a big surprise! Thank you for your hard work!"

There are still many teams waiting behind, so the judges can't just hold the two of them to chat. The leader can only encourage them a few words and let them go first.

After the two left, a group of judges started to communicate:

"It's really worthy of the combination of our two great directors in China. This is really different!"

"Not only did they present our Chinese culture through various creative ideas, but they also showed the new look of our China in the new era, demonstrated our Chinese confidence, and the theme of one world, one dream, which also brought our China closer to the world!"

"In my opinion, their plan can be directly set as the final plan now. It is very well prepared and excellent in all aspects!"

"I really forgot to breathe when I heard it just now. It's so wonderful! It's much better than the previous plans!"

"And they don't just have creativity, they also consider the implementation and practicality of the plan. It's really amazing!"

The leader watched the judges chattering and interrupted with a smile after a while:

"Directors Wu and Zhang have indeed brought us a very exciting plan, but everyone still has to look at the subsequent plans with a fair and just attitude. Maybe there are more surprises?"

Everyone nodded when they heard this, but they all gave high marks to the plan just now. Several people felt that even if there were several more groups to come, even if there were some dazzling features, it would be difficult to surpass them. This is the set!

After Wu Yuchen and Lao Mouzi walked out with smiles on their faces, many reporters immediately gathered around:

"Director Wu, seeing that you are smiling, are you confident in your candidacy?"

"Director Wu, are you confident that you will win the title of Chief Director of this Olympic Games?"

"Director Wu, Director Zhang, how do you feel about this election?"

Wu Yuchen was in a good mood at this time, so he stopped and said a few more words: "Of course you have to have confidence. After all, Director Zhang and I have been discussing this plan for more than half a year. Now we have tried our best to do our best. Even if you are eliminated in the end, there will be no regrets!

As for this election, everyone is actually very good. How could you possibly finish explaining our five thousand years of splendid Chinese culture in fifty minutes? Not even gods can. So the focus of each team may be different. As for who to choose in the end, I completely believe in the decision of the organizing committee! "

Lao Mouzi also said: "When it comes to Chinese culture, there is no shortage of profound history, but many people always think that Chinese people are serious and that we lack romantic feelings. In fact, romantic feelings are the most important part of Chinese tradition.

Therefore, our plan this time contains a lot of personality, passion and romance to show the face of our Chinese people today, and it goes through all the details. We cannot let the world see us China with old concepts. people! "

After that, Wu Yuchen and Lao Mouzi boarded the car they came from in the flash of lights, and left gracefully, and the real-time broadcast of the scene was also broadcast by reporters.

There are 13 teams in total, each team takes 50 minutes, and there is rest and preparation time in between. Therefore, this campaign will last two days, with 8 teams on the first day and 5 teams on the second day.

Moreover, this is only the first round. Through this selection, 5 teams will enter the second round, and then the final winner will be selected in the second round.

A week later, the results of the first round of selection were announced, and the team of Wu Yuchen and Zhang Yimou ranked first among the five selected teams!
