Chapter 273 Don't do it, let's withdraw(1/2)

273 No more, let's withdraw

The negotiation between Chen Fei and Oe Saburo was very unsuccessful.

However, neither of them turned over the table on the spot, and they were still very restrained.

Chen Fei talked about the conditions that the chairman of the organizing committee, Ichiro Matsushita, agreed to him one by one. Oe Saburo just said, sorry, Chen Sang, the situation has changed a lot now. Now, there are several times more filmmakers participating in the exhibition than before. The booth is not enough and cannot give you the area you want. Moreover, now, Ichiro Matsushita is lying in the hospital and has not woken up, so I am not sure if he has really promised so much to you...

When Chen Fei was negotiating with Ichiro Matsushita, both of them were just talking on phone or video, and did not sign any written agreement.

These things can only be understood and are not convenient to write them out in black and white.

Chen Fei could feel the sincerity and urgent needs of Ichiro Matsushita, and Ichiro Matsushita could also feel Chen Fei's needs, so the two sides hit it off and there was no need for a contract at all. No one would violate the win-win situation.

However, no one expected that Ichiro Matsushita would not be able to get sick.

Before Chen Fei went to find Saburo Oe, he was ready, but when he really contacted Saburo Oe, he realized that it would be difficult for this negotiation to have a good result.

Oe Saburo is a typical Westerner and is very pro-Western. This can be seen from his attitude towards movies and filmmakers. He prefers to invite Western filmmakers to participate in the exhibition. He doesn't like Eastern filmmakers unless they are domestic.

So Chen Fei did not argue with him. There was no need to do that. He did not make plans for each other. After saying a few words, he understood the other party’s true intentions, and then said goodbye.

Since the agreement cannot be reached, I won’t discuss it anymore, and we won’t ask you!

He did not sign any agreement with Ichiro Matsushita at the beginning, and both parties made verbal promises. Now, Oe Saburo doesn't want to admit it, which is good. Chen Fei can also refuse to admit it, and he will leave after patting his butt. He doesn't have to bear any consequences, which is also great.

After coming out of Oe Saburo's office, Chen Fei received a call from Aika Sanyi. Aika Sanyi told Chen Fei about the situation he had found out. The roughly means that Oe Saburo overturned Ichiro Matsushita's plan and wanted to make another plan, so Chen Fei became his stumbling block.

Ichiro Matsushita attaches great importance to Asian movies and filmmakers, so he will naturally attach importance to Chen Fei, but Oe Saburo attaches more importance to Western directors, so he definitely does not want Chen Fei to get such great benefits.

OK, since that's the case, then go!

"We will withdraw and will not participate in the exhibition!"

So when he saw Li Yu and the others, he said this first thing.

The other friends were surprised and a little regretful. Only Li Yu disagreed. It seemed that he had known that Chen Fei would do this for a long time.

"Let's book the air ticket the day after tomorrow. Since we're here, we'll have fun tomorrow and we'll return to China the day after tomorrow." Li Yu suggested to Chen Fei.

Chen Fei naturally knew what this guy meant. He burst out and couldn't help laughing, "Okay!" He nodded and agreed to Li Yu's request.

"We go out to play this afternoon and tomorrow one day. Where do you want to go?" Chen Fei asked everyone. There was no depression or depressed on his face, and his smile was full. It seemed that what happened just now had not happened at all.

After hearing Chen Fei’s question, everyone was stunned.

Really withdrawn?

Only then did everyone realize that what Chen Fei said just now was not a joke, not anger, but serious.

The group looked at me, I looked at you.

Finally, someone asked carefully: "Brother Fei, we really want to withdraw?"

"Yes!" Chen Fei nodded: "Ichiro Matsushita begged me to come to this film festival. Now, he is sick and others don't like us. So what else can we participate in? Let's withdraw!"

At this moment, everyone was finally sure that Chen Fei was not a joke, and everyone nodded.

"Yes, let's withdraw. Since Oe Saburo doesn't like us, what's the point of us here to put on a cold butt?"

"This Oe Saburo was kicked by a donkey? He didn't even welcome us?"

"This kind of person has long been abnormal in his brain. He kneeled too much and has lost his basic judgment!"

Everyone complained about each word and said.

Since we were about to withdraw, everyone's hearts naturally became relaxed. After complaining for a few words, someone finally expressed their wishes.

"Brother Fei, let's go to Mount Fuji?"

"Soak the hot spring! I suggest going to the hot spring!" Someone immediately raised his hand to signal.

"Fuck, Li Hengyu, you are young, why are you thinking yellow? Japanese people are mixed with men and women, and they don't wear anything. You are so bad at a young age, so you may not be able to do it!"

"Ah? Men and women are mixed bubbles? They don't wear anything? Really fake?" The other party was stunned when he heard this, then his eyes lit up and saliva was about to flow out.

"This place in Japan is really a bit strange. Li Hengyu is so pure, why does he have a yellow mind when he set foot on the land here?" Another person joked.

Li Hengyu rolled his eyes: "You are pure!"

Everyone laughed and laughed, and left the film festival together.

When he returned to the hotel, Chen Fei was about to call Sanji Caihua, but he had just taken out his cell phone and before he could dial the number, Sanji Caihua called in. Chen Fei asked first: "Sanji Caihua, are you free today and tomorrow? We want to go and have fun, but we don't know where to go? If you have time, be a tour guide for us?"

When Sanji Caihua heard this, she was shocked and was surprised: "Brother Fei, aren't we going to decorate the exhibition these two days?"

"We quit and will not participate in the exhibition!" Chen Fei said.

"What? I won't participate in the exhibition?" Sanji Aika was so surprised that she didn't know what to say, and was silent for a long time.

Chen Fei briefly explained the story of the matter and his own thoughts. Sanji Aihua was silent for a long time before she said, "Okay, Brother Fei, then quit, oh, what did you say just now? Are you going to travel tomorrow?"

"Yes, since I came to Tokyo, I didn't want to do anything and went back. I heard that the scenery here is nice and I wanted to travel, but I don't know where to go."

"Brother Fei, where are you now? I'll come and meet you!"

"hotel!"

"Okay, let's see you in the hotel later!" Sanji Caihua hung up the phone.

At most half an hour, she came to the hotel with her assistant.

At this time, Chen Fei and the others were packing their luggage.

Since we are going to withdraw from the film festival, we naturally can no longer live in the place arranged by others, so we decided to find a place to live on our own.

"Brother Fei, go to our side to stay. There is a hotel where we have a very distinctive one. You can also take hot springs in it, which is very famous." Sanji Aihua suggested with a smile.

"Okay, then we will follow your arrangements!" Chen Fei replied with a smile.

The group dragged their luggage and walked to the lobby in a mighty manner.

When Chen Fei and the others appeared in the hotel lobby, many filmmakers saw them and came up to ask: "Chen, what's going on? Are you going to change a hotel?"

"We have retreated!" Chen Fei said with a smile.

“Regress?”

Everyone who heard this was shocked, turned around suddenly and looked at it steadily.

"Chen, what did you say just now? Are you going to quit the film festival?" After three or four seconds, someone finally reacted and rushed over to ask in three steps and two steps.

"Yes!" Chen Fei nodded, and then took everyone out of the hotel.

As everyone left, the people in the lobby suddenly started to buzz.

"What's going on? Why did Chen retreat?"

"I don't know, do you know?"

"I heard that the organizing committee had promised him before but none of the conditions promised him!"

"Oh, actually, since Ichiro Matsushita was admitted to the hospital, I knew something was going to go wrong, and it turns out..."

"Director Li, are we?" A director assistant from Seoul asked his boss carefully.

Everyone looked different and had their own thoughts, Chen Fei led everyone out of the hotel.

At this time, a young director of art films from China, a young director who had just debuted for a few years, chased him out of the lobby and asked Chen Fei loudly: "Brother Fei, do you really want to retreat?"

Chen Fei nodded.

The young director immediately bit his teeth and said, "Brother Fei, then I'll quit too!"

Do you want to quit?

Chen Fei was stunned.

He had no impression of that young director, he had never heard of it, nor had he seen it, and he had never heard of his works.

However, the other party's words attracted his attention and impressed him.

Of course, Chen Fei understood that the little guy might be gambled to approach him in this way to increase his impression score in Chen Fei's eyes, but these are actually not important. The most important point is that everyone is their own people.

"Why?" Chen Fei asked the other party.

The director did not hide it, and sincerely explained: "Brother Fei, to be honest, I spent a lot of effort to get an exhibition place in this film festival. I value it very much. Of course, there is only one reason why I value it so much, because Brother Fei, you are also here to participate in the exhibition, but you are leaving now, so why should I stay? Moreover, although I don't know the specific reason, I know that Brother Fei must have a sufficient reason. So, since Brother Fei can't stand it and can only withdraw, then I can only withdraw!"

Chen Fei nodded after hearing this. He had already remembered this young director in his heart, but at this time, he said nothing and did nothing.

He turned around and continued to walk forward with the team.

But the conversation between the two people has attracted the attention of some reporters, and a reporter from a local TV station quickly blocked Chen Fei.

The reporter was about 40 years old, a man in a suit and a serious face. He stopped Chen Fei and asked, "Chen Sang, I seemed to hear a shocking news just now. Are you going to quit this film festival?"

"Yes!" Chen Fei did not hesitate to face the camera and made his decision.

"Why? Chen Sang, can you tell us why?" the reporter asked immediately.

Chen Fei smiled, shrugged, and made a very helpless expression: "I also want to know the answer..."

After a pause, he said, "I originally attached great importance to this film festival. I have prepared a lot of important things to show to everyone. I want to let the Tokyo movie fans understand us more deeply, but now... Sorry!"

Another reporter from another media immediately asked: "Chen Sang, a director said he wanted to withdraw from the film festival just now. Did you make an appointment? Have you discussed it?"
