It's reasonable for me, a stuntman, to live a crazy life, right?

Chapter 1136 Drama is like life, but it is not life? The threat from Xiao Cui and the disdain from Bing Bing...

"On its first day of release, the Hollywood blockbuster Tomb Raider earned 76.237 million RMB at the box office."

"The Shape of Water, the 90th Oscar-winning film for best director, grossed 10.35 million yuan on its first day of release in China."

"Manchester by the Sea, a Hollywood blockbuster starring Matt Damon, Leonardo DiCaprio, Kate Winslet and others, which won the 90th Academy Award for Best Picture, grossed 36.54 million yuan on its first day of release - Maoyan app."

"Feiyue Films released the latest announcement: the costume drama adapted from Mao Ni's novel of the same name "Celebrating Yu Nian" has completed all casting work.

Actors Zhang Ruoyun, Li Qin, Song Yi, Guo Qilin, Chen Daoming, Wu Gang, Tian Yu, Li Xiaoran, Xin Zhilei and others will co-star in the drama and devote their superb acting skills! "

"Following Cell Phone 2, the main theme movie Eight Hundred, produced by Huayi and written and directed by Guan Hu, was officially announced in the capital this morning. It is reported that the film is based on the Battle of Shanghai in 1937, and the budget investment is as high as 700 million yuan..."

Throughout the entire day on the 17th, the entire film and television industry was focused on the movie "Eight Hundred" which had just been announced.

There is no other reason, it’s just because the investment budget of up to 700 million is really unbelievable!

A mainstream commercial film is planning to invest 700 million yuan, and the director is still trying to scare this "idiot". Isn't this too outrageous?

"My goodness, I am really impressed by Huayi's operation. They often spend 500 million or 700 million yuan. If you don't know, you would think it is a super science fiction blockbuster..."

Because of the competition that had always existed between them, Wang Changtian always disliked the two brothers of the Wang family.

And now, with the release of "Eight Hundred", the disgust in his heart has become even stronger.

"Is everyone in the industry discussing this project right now?" Chen Fei asked a question he knew the answer to.

"Of course! Everyone is waiting to see when Huayi will get into trouble. What they did is really too much. They didn't try to cover it up at all. It's obvious that they are just trying to wash away the dirt."

"It will probably be soon. I received a call from the General Administration a few days ago, saying that they are going to crack down on the current high pay of celebrities..."

In fact, Chen Fei thinks that "suppressing film pay" is probably very difficult to do.

The stars' pay has been raised with great difficulty by the capital. If it suddenly drops, how can everyone make a fortune?

However, this is also a rather special signal.

From now on, the higher-ups will definitely do something about "star pay", and maybe even kill a few chickens to make an example of them.

I just don’t know who will be the “chicken” then?

~

The 17th passed in a flash and it was already the 18th.

"Manchester by the Sea" once again earned 42.39 million at the box office, and its reputation has steadily improved, which has lived up to Chen Fei's expectations.

By this time, the film has already made a profit.

But who would complain about making too much money?

So naturally the higher the box office, the better.

At the same time, following Huayi’s announcement of the project launch of “Eight Hundred” yesterday, this morning, Bona and Tingdong Pictures jointly announced the news of the project launch of “Flying Life”.

"This morning, the inspirational comedy film "Speeding Life", co-produced by Tingdong Pictures and Bona Films and written and directed by Han Han, has officially completed the project approval stage.

From now on, the film will officially enter the audition and casting stage, and we warmly welcome colleagues from the mainland film and television industry to sign up for the audition."

“Speeding Life tells the story of racing driver Zhang Chi, who was banned for five years and had his driver’s license revoked for illegal racing. However, he never forgot his love for racing. In order to regain his former dignity and honor, he decided to return to the racing world and achieve success again with his persistent belief.”

Over the next two days, two major film projects were officially announced and auditions for actors were started.

This is undoubtedly huge good news for many first- and second-tier actors in the domestic entertainment industry!

For a time, there was a constant stream of people signing up for auditions and submitting resumes.

Most people want to get involved in such a big project, regardless of whether it can succeed or not, even if it's just to earn some traffic and popularity.

However, there is also a small group of people who do not have much affection for these projects.

Take Zhang Yi for example.

When he received the audition invitation call from Guan Hu, he rejected the invitation without any hesitation.

As a partner of Feiyue Film and Television, he was well aware of the conflicts between Feiyue Film and Television and Huayi, as well as Chen Fei's dislike for Guan Hu.

In this case, if he chooses to star in "Eight Hundred", what is the difference between this and "surrendering to the enemy"?

What's more, it's not like he has no more movies to shoot.

His resources are so good now that it's "scary". A lot of scripts are sent to him every day, and most of them allow him to set any conditions and raise any salary...

Based on this, movies like "Eight Hundred" should just go away.

If you have different ideals, you will naturally not be able to work together.

It's just that although he was feeling carefree, Guan Hu was worried.

If it is just a pure mainstream theme movie, then just find veteran actors and that's it.

But the key issue now is that the main theme is followed by the word "business", and the investment of 700 million yuan makes him feel extremely stressed!

He is now in urgent need of finding some actors who can both carry the box office and have good acting skills.

He wanted Zhang Yi to play "Lao Suanpan", Huang Jingyu to play "Duanwu", Zhang Ruoyun to play "Zhu Shengzhong", and Wang Baoqiang to play "Qi Jiaming"...

Unfortunately, after making many invitation calls, all I got were “rejection” replies.

This made him feel a little puzzled.

Was this situation caused by his personal reasons, or was it because the investor behind "The Eight Hundred" was Huayi?

Guan Hu was a little confused, and at the same time, he had some bad premonitions inexplicably...

………………

"Captain, I thought you were off coordinating the search and rescue operation."

"There's a change of plan. I just received a call from the minister. I will be in charge of the scepter."

"Sir, I don't understand..."

"Long live Hydra!"

Just a few simple lines of dialogue highlight the "growth" of the character "Captain America".

Chen Fei can conclude that after "Avengers 4" is released, when this scene appears in the eyes of Marvel fans, it will definitely trigger thunderous cheers at the premiere!

"Hehe, just create a contrast and that's it."

Muttering to himself, Fade Chen waved his hand and ordered, "Prepare for the transition and shoot the next scene. Loki, have you finished your makeup? Get ready to go on stage."

A voice echoed from the dressing room not far away: "Boss, always be ready!"

As time passed, scene after scene was successfully displayed in Chen Fei's hands, and all of them were frozen in the storage disk.

From the collaboration in "Avengers 1" to "Avengers 4", the actors have developed a very good understanding of each other.

After a whole day of shooting, the shot of Captain America snatching the scepter in the building was completed very smoothly without any lag.

Then, the crew began to move to the next shooting location.

When you’re on a shoot, time flies by really fast.

In a blink of an eye, it is already late March.

On the 25th, Chen Fei once again received news from home.

"Lost in Hong Kong" exhausted its box office potential and finally ended successfully with a score of 2.503 billion.

The celebration banquet was held that evening. Wang Baoqiang attended in his best attire and enjoyed his own moment of glory!

At the same time, Feiyue Film and Television's revenue from this movie once again shocked its peers in the film and television industry!

The production cost was 85 million, but it eventually earned 2.5 billion at the box office. This was a real profit!

The first quarter hasn’t even ended yet, but they’ve already generated such a horrific profit. How the hell are other competitors supposed to survive?

"Amazing! This result is really amazing!"

Inside the large conference room of Huanxi Media, Dong Ping was looking at the online reports on the box office performance of "Lost in Hong Kong" with envy.

In other words, Feiyue Films would not do those messy operations. If this movie was handed over to him, he would push the box office to more than 3 billion no matter what!

But besides being envious, he also felt inexplicably nervous.

You know, the love-themed movie "Us and Them" that Huanxi Media will launch during the May Day period next month will collide head-on with "Time Raiders" produced by Feiyue Films.

This side is Jing Boran + Zhou Dongyu, and that side is Luo Jin + Shu Chang...

To be honest, Dong Ping no longer has any confidence.

The actors' status and popularity are totally disproportionate. They have good box office and acting skills, while on our side, only Jing Boran has a lot of fans.

As for Zhou Dongyu...if those people in the Hong Kong circle hadn't pushed her to the position, Dong Ping actually didn't want to choose her as the female lead.

The reason is very simple. This woman's emotional intelligence is really too low, and she often does some messy and confusing things that are really hard to understand.

However, now that things have come to this, there is no point in regretting.

He can only try his best to promote this movie so that its publicity and promotion effect can be maximized!

"There are still 33 days until our movie is released. This period of time is very important. I hope everyone can work together to do a good job in promoting the movie. If the box office is successful, it will be good for everyone..."

In the conference room, director Liu Yanying, leading actor Jing Boyan, leading actress Zhou Dongyu and others were present.

Listening to Dong Ping's words, everyone nodded in agreement.

Zhou Dongyu, in particular, was all smiles.

The film crew actually arranged for her to be a couple with Jing Boran. For her, this is simply a benefit!

The longer she stayed with those old guys in Hong Kong, the more she felt that she had a lot of old-fashioned air about her. She could use the opportunity to create a couple with Jing Bairan to remedy that.

She is actually a very proactive person. Let alone hyping up a couple, she has no objection even to just having an in-depth communication.

Unfortunately, Jing Boran doesn't seem to have any such thoughts. Apart from behaving intimately with her in front of the camera and the public, he stays away from her when away from the camera.

She had hinted to the other party many times, but the other party just didn't listen, which made her feel a little regretful.

It is estimated that after the movie is over, she will not have the chance to come into contact with this sweet and soft young man. It is quite sad to think about it.

However, just as she was daydreaming, Dong Ping's voice echoed in her ears: "Zhou Dongyu, your 'competitor' target this time is Shu Chang, you must be prepared for a tough battle!"

Hearing this, Zhou Dongyu immediately responded: "Boss Dong, don't worry, I won't lose to her."

She held her head high, appearing very confident.

She is a "Mou Girl" and also the Golden Horse Award winner!

What the hell is Shu Chang?

Isn’t it just starring in the “Ghost Blows Out the Light” series of movies?

If it weren't for Chen Fei and Liu Yifei to support her, she, a "wild" actress who is not even a professional actor, would have been isolated from the film and television industry by now!

Zhou Dongyu is quite confident about the box office and traffic battle between "Us and Them" and "Time Raiders" which will be launched during the May Day period.

After all, when it comes to hype, she is quite good at it.

However, when the time came to the 26th, the popularity of "Us and Them", "Time Raiders", and "Lost in Hong Kong" were all "suppressed" by a piece of news coming back from Australia!

"In the early hours of last night, mainland actors Gao Yunxiang and Wang Jing were arrested by local police in a hotel in Sydney, Australia on suspicion of sexual assault..."

When this news appeared on major entertainment news websites in the mainland, it immediately sparked heated discussions across the Internet!

At first, most people's attention was focused on "Wang Jing", and they subconsciously thought that this Wang Jing was the one from Hong Kong.

However, within half an hour after the news came out, Wang Jing from Hong Kong quickly came out to refute the rumor, saying that the Wang Jing suspected of sexual assault was the producer of the TV series "Aranya Love Story", not him...

The misunderstanding was resolved and everyone's attention turned back to Gao Yunxiang.

The latter's studio immediately came out to clarify, denying the incident of sexual assault, and stated that Gao Yunxiang was wronged and was not involved in the incident.

However, the studio did not deny the arrest.

This also means that Gao Yunxiang is indeed involved in the incident!

It is still unknown how the incident will unfold. After all, many domestic media are just preparing to go to the scene to check the situation, and more information has not yet been leaked.

However, the only thing that is certain at the moment is that the plan to broadcast the TV series "The Legend of Ba Qing" starring Fan Bingbing has been forced to be suspended again.

The reason is simple.

Gao Yunxiang plays Fan Bingbing’s official CP Ying Zheng in this TV series, and he is also the male lead!

Well then, the male lead is now suspected of sexual assault, how could the TV series starring him be successfully broadcast on satellite TV in mainland China?

The film producers have no chance of successfully crossing the hurdle of the review department alone!

Based on this, the road to becoming a star-studded drama was once again forced to press the pause button.

"Hey? It really has become a 'Four Fools' incident?"

On the "Avengers 4" crew side, when Chen Fei saw the hot search for the first time, he couldn't help laughing.

When "The Legend of Ba Qing" was announced to be broadcast on satellite TV on April 1 some time ago, he was already waiting to eat the "big melon".

Now, as expected, the big melon was not late and arrived as promised!

At this point, the actor with problems in "The Legend of Ba Qing" has changed from Ma Su alone to two after Gao Yunxiang joined.

The former is fine, it has only been caught up in a public opinion storm and has not yet been "banned".

But the latter is different. Once suspected of sexual assault, if they cannot successfully escape within a short period of time, they will inevitably be "banned" indefinitely.

The same is true for this drama, which will be suspended from satellite broadcasting indefinitely as the actors are banned.

Tangde Film and Television is in big trouble this time, and so is Fan Bingbing.

After the investment in "Sky Hunter" failed, she was waiting to use this drama to "recoup money", but she never expected that this drama would have sudden incidents again and again!

"Damn it! What is going on? Why does this TV series keep having problems? Hasn't Gao Yunxiang's studio responded yet? Is he really involved in a sexual assault?"

At Amei Pictures, Fan Bingbing was furious in the office, unable to hide his anger!

The assistant seemed to be hesitant to speak and didn't dare to utter a word.

"Just say whatever you want to say. Why are you hesitating?"

Hearing this, the assistant gritted her teeth and said very quickly: "Sister Bingbing, Gao Yunxiang's studio has not responded yet, but the media photographed Gao Yunxiang's wife Dong Xuan rushing to the airport. She must have gone to resolve this matter..."

After hearing this and thinking about the dirty things in the entertainment industry, Fan Bingbing already had the answer in his mind.

If nothing unexpected happens, the incident should be true. After all, the TV drama producer was involved in the incident, and it was probably a "private deal" for certain roles and scenes that led to this sexual assault.

“Damn it…”

Fan Bingbing's face became increasingly gloomy.

She had a feeling that the release of "Legend of Ba Qing" would probably be postponed for a long time, and it was even possible...

"Ding-ling-ling!"

The sudden ringing of the phone interrupted her thoughts.

When she took out her cell phone and looked at it, her expression changed slightly.

"Damn it! He's haunting us!"

Cursing inwardly a few times, she thought for a moment, her fingertips hovered above the screen for two seconds, and finally swiped across the answer button.

The next second, Cui Yongyuan's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Ms. Fan is in such a good mood. I heard that you are going to join "Cell Phone 2" again?"

"Haha." Fan Bingbing smiled and said, "Teacher Cui is quite well-informed."

Hearing that she did not deny it, Cui Yongyuan's voice suddenly sank: "How many viewers of that play 15 years ago mistook fiction for reality? Do you know?"

Fan Bingbing said calmly: "Artistic creation always requires room for imagination."

Cui Yongyuan was immediately furious, because all the mania caused by depression turned into roars: "But when fiction becomes a sharp blade that hurts people, is this still art?"

Fan Bingbing ignored his anger because she was in need of money and Huayi happened to be able to give her money. "Teacher Cui, there is a saying in our industry - drama is like life, but it is not life itself."

Cui Yongyuan's breathing suddenly became heavier: "But some people treat life as a play! That character who was misunderstood back then..."

Fan Bingbing was not interested in continuing the conversation and interrupted him directly: "So you think the actors should be responsible for the script?"

Cui Yongyuan suddenly fell silent.

After a long time, just when Fan Bingbing was about to hang up the phone, Cui Yongyuan's threatening voice suddenly came from the receiver: "I contacted Feng Xiaogang, Wang Zhonglei, Liu Zhenyun...but they didn't take me seriously and thought I couldn't do anything to them.

Now that I have contacted you, haha, you actually have the same attitude... In that case, don't blame me for being rude, let's die together!"

Beep, beep, beep…

The call was suddenly disconnected.

Fan Bingbing cursed inwardly, "Psycho!", then stood up and walked out.

She made an appointment with Wang Zhonglei today and was going to Huayi to sign the contract.

This is a big matter and must be treated seriously!

After all, there are two contracts to sign, so you have to read them carefully...

As for Cui Yongyuan's threat, she didn't take it seriously at all.

He is just a useless person, what kind of trouble can he cause?
