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

When she got the investment rights for "Taiping Wheel" last year, Han Sanping made a special call to Chen Fei, with a hint of showing off in her words.

And today, as preparations for the movie began, as expected, the call came again.

"I can tell you first that the investment in this movie is higher than that of "Red Cliff". Several of our producers have discussed the script and believe that it definitely has the potential to exceed 1 billion in box office.

I have already issued an audition invitation within Feiyinghuang Agency, and anyone who meets the conditions can participate in the audition.

Aren't you praising Shu Chang and Zhao Liying recently? How about I say hello to Wu Yu and tuck the two of them in? "

"..." After a long silence, Chen Fei said leisurely: "Director Han, you are quite a nice person."

"Haha." Han Sanping thought she was praising him, and immediately said cheerfully: "One family does not speak the same language. Although I do not have the right to operate the Feiying Emperor, I still enjoy the share. If I have the opportunity, I will definitely get it. Take care of our own people.

Huayi is also vying for roles. If we want them, we have to prepare in advance..."

Chen Fei didn't want to listen to him anymore, so he interrupted directly: "I have other plans for the two of them, so forget it. As for the other young actors, it's up to them. They won't get any important roles anyway, so they should just go for it." A face."

After hearing the words "other arrangements," Han Sanping said nothing more.

"Alas!" He sighed: "It seems that most of the photo opportunities this time have to be taken away by Huayi. Those two brothers have been very close to Wu Yu recently."

"It's better to be closer, those who are closer to Mo..."

"Huh? What are you talking about?"

"Nothing, nothing."

Chen Fei suddenly reacted and quickly dropped the topic, using the excuse of hanging up the phone in advance.

Listening to the busy signal from the phone, Han Sanping couldn't help but murmured: "What's going on with this guy today? Why is he so nagging?"

He didn't think much about it, put his phone in his pocket, and went straight to make arrangements.

This time, he will strictly control the progress and quality of the filming and follow up the entire process to prevent problems like "Red Cliff" from happening again.

"The Eastern version of "Titanic", haha, good! Great!"

The more he thought about it, the more excited he became.

…

After talking to Han Sanping on the phone, Chen Fei's eyes were all focused on Master Xing's movie.

Following the two movies "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: The Ancient City" and "Wolf Warrior", "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" released in February once again ignited the Spring Festival movies!

With the name of Mr. Xing and a group of powerful leading actors, the success of the film is reasonable in the eyes of many people.

The box office on the first day was 83 million!

The box office the next day was 125 million!

In just two days, the box office successfully exceeded 200 million!

This Qi Juechen-like strength directly allowed everyone in the industry to once again experience Zhou Xingchi's strong box office appeal, and at the same time, it also made many production companies extremely enthusiastic.

As a producer, Huayi was an excited group and quickly began to increase publicity efforts.

"The high reputation of "1942" did not lead to high box office. This is our regret. However, "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" is a top masterpiece with high reputation and high box office. Our goal is still 1 billion !”

If it were before, many people might laugh at Huayi for not overestimating its capabilities.

But as the data exceeded 200 million in two days, this slogan immediately gained support and praise from a large number of people, especially the actors from the Huayi faction, who were all so excited that they seemed to have participated in the filming.

…

The disputes between female celebrities are always the most exciting scenes in the industry.

When Chen Fei briefly took his eyes away from "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", he discovered that the competition among the new four female actors had already entered a fierce state!

Yang Mi has been confirmed to participate in the selection of the new four Xiaohuadan, mainly relying on works such as "The Palace Locks the Heart", "Four Famous Catchers", "Little Times", and "Love in Seattle".

Judging from these, she has almost booked the second place this year.

If it weren't for Shu Chang's participation in "The Ghost Blowing the Lamp: The Ancient City", I'm afraid the first place would have to be given to Yang Mi.

At this moment, in the rest area of ​​the "Tiny Times" crew, Yang Mi and Zeng Jia were chatting quietly together.

"Mimi, it's been confirmed now. There is absolutely no problem for you to take second place."

"okay."

Yang Mi nodded slightly, but she was not very happy in her heart.

She was ranked fourth in the last selection of the Four Little Actresses, but this time she was promoted to second place, which seemed to be a big improvement.

But my family knows what my family is like.

Huang Shengyi has been completely screwed, Wang Luojuan has not developed very well in recent years, Liu Yifei has been officially promoted to the ranks of top stars and producers, and she doesn't look down on these four little actresses at all.

Therefore, her second place is not so much based on strength, but rather based on luck.

Look at Shu Chang. With just one movie, he became popular at home and abroad. That’s how he truly broke out of the industry!

As a friend and partner for many years, Zeng Jia naturally understood what Yang Mi was thinking.

She expressed relief: "You don't need to care about the rumors from the outside world. Once you get this title, it will be of unparalleled help to the career of an actress!"

"Well, I understand." Yang Mi took a deep breath and said, "For fame and fortune, we must fight for what we should fight for!"

In short, this year's "Four Little Flowers" selection is actually more commercial, and background is also the key, so there is a lot of room for maneuver.

With the first and second basically determined, the competition for the third and fourth is becoming more and more intense!

I don't know what means Yang Ying used. Huayi has given up Bai Baihe and put all its energy on her. These days, she is pushing her to the top.

However, many netizens don't buy their tricks, and the voices of ridicule come one after another.

"You can only frown, stare, and smile foolishly. I don't know where you get the face to participate in the selection of the four little flowers..."

However, compared with the various ridicules on the Internet, almost no one in the circle has any objection to Yang Ying's competition for the four little flowers.

After all, Huayi and Huang Xiaoming are standing behind her. With these two parties backing her up, even if she takes the role and doesn't go to the set, it's not impossible to appear on the screen by changing her face in the later stage.

This is the power of connections!

Many people are already waiting for the moment when the result is revealed. If nothing unexpected happens, Yang Ying will definitely have a place here.

At the same time, Tangren on the other side is also competing!

Cai Yinong has reached an agreement with Liu Shishi. If the selection of the four little flowers can be successfully won, then Liu Shishi will renew the contract on the spot.

But if it fails, the cooperation between the two parties for many years can be declared over.

For this reason, Tangren can be said to be pushing this matter with the whole company's strength. Various press releases, water army, interviews, etc. are spread all over the Internet. Obviously, a lot of money has been spent!

"Mr. Cai, after the news about "Step by Step" was announced, the online response was very good. This time we definitely have the hope of getting the quota of the four little flowers."

Listening to the assistant's report, Cai Yinong showed a long-lost smile on his face.

"Okay, keep up the good work and make sure to win it successfully!"

Cai Yinong has his own set of rhetoric in his heart.

Under the premise that Liu Yifei does not participate in the competition, the only powerful opponents in this session are Shu Chang and Yang Mi.

As for the others, they are far behind Liu Shishi in terms of national popularity, so she is still very confident.

Similar to Tangren, Ni Nei not only has Feng Shaofeng's team paving the way and supporting her, but even Zhang Yimou has personally come out to vote for her, and her momentum is not much worse than Tangren.

As for Jing Tian, ​​the three words "resource coffee" are enough to prove her personal strength.

The competition among the parties is very fierce, and all means are used, and even the dog's brain is almost beaten out!

After learning some inside information, Chen Fei specially called Huo Wenxi: "Zhao Liying should not fight for this title, there is no need, her national popularity is not enough, and forcing it up will only add to the laughing stock."

"Okay, Mr. Chen, I understand."

Unlike Shu Chang, who has been in the TV drama circle since childhood, Zhao Liying has been in the industry for several years, but she is actually not much different from a newcomer at this time.

Although "Your Name" made her shine, the role of the second female lead is not up to the standard.

Rather than forcing it, it is better not to get involved.

...

As a public figure, one must be responsible for what he says.

On the day when "Dallas Buyers Club" was released in North America, Chen Fei held a press conference and attended the event in person.

"After 45 days of release, thanks to the love of all fans, "Dallas Buyers Club" has earned a total of 110 million US dollars in North America.

At the beginning of filming, I promised that after the film was released, I would use all the box office revenue to invest in AIDS drug research and development and the establishment of a mutual aid association.

And today, I will keep my promise and hand over the 110 million US dollars to the International AIDS Foundation, entrusting them to help me complete this task that benefits the public..."

The press conference did not last long. With the end of Chen Fei's speech and the speech of the president of the International AIDS Foundation, it was officially declared over.

However, this press conference, which lasted less than half an hour, has attracted huge attention in North America!

Even Ao Guanhai personally posted a blog post, strongly supporting and approving Chen Fei's behavior, calling on all sectors of society to learn from him.

For a time, the movie became more popular, and more and more people supported it.

As the mainstream in the circle, Oscar is naturally unwilling to lag behind. The president of the Academy personally spoke out and affirmed Chen Fei's "great love" behavior.

The other crews participating in the award competition were a little confused.

There were too many operations by the opponents, and they couldn't stand it at all, and they didn't know how to defend at all!

"I can't guarantee the Best Director Award, but the Best Picture Award is definitely a sure thing."

Natasha said very confidently. After this series of operations, if they can't even get the Best Picture, then Oscar's black material will be too deep!

"There are still fifteen days left, our public relations cannot stop, and we can't do things like opening champagne halfway to prevent sudden changes."

Chen Fei said very seriously, and did not look down on other crews.

He knew very well that being vigilant, humble, and low-key is the key to continuous success, and losing irrational pride will inevitably lead to a painful failure!

...

As the synonym of "Journey to the West", whenever a movie or TV series about the theme of Journey to the West is launched, Mr. Liu will always rush to the front, followed by a large number of loyal fans and defenders of the original work.

As the box office of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" directed by Zhou Xingchi is getting higher and higher, Mr. Liu has also started to make all kinds of farces.

When participating in an interview program, he complained with tears in his eyes: "The current theme of Journey to the West is completely a sheep's head selling dog meat. It is shameless to call it Journey to the West just by putting a few character names!

If it is a normal adaptation, such as an animated film like "Journey to the West: Hero is Back", then I can still accept it.

But look at the themes adapted by Zhou Xingchi. It's not Sun Wukong's love, it's Sha Monk's love, it's not Zhu Bajie's love, it's Tang Monk's love. Is there any connotation in the change? Is there any progress?

This is purely destroying the classics, the original work, and the three views!"

This accusation attracted the support of many people, especially those fans of the original work, who kept accusing and protesting under the official blog of "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons".

However, Huayi and Zhou Xingchi did not respond at all, and they just ignored it.

According to what Wang Zhonglei said in the club, "Chun Chun just regarded it as a monkey show."

The public relations department of Huayi has been keeping an eye on Teacher Liu. Without affecting the box office of the film, they like to see Teacher Liu tossing around.

After all, such an operation can attract more attention to the film.

On the 12th, "The 101st Proposal" starring Huang Bo and Lin Chiling, and "Together" starring Zhen Zixuan, Yang Ying, Chen Yanxi, and Ke Mou chose to be released on the same day.

Chen Fei paid special attention to the box office of the two films.

The former box office closed at 14.84 million yuan, and there were many good reviews. Many people think that this is a high-quality love movie with laughter and tears.

The latter is a bit miserable. The box office on the first day was only 1.03 million, and there was a lot of scolding in the comment area!

"Zhen Zixuan is acting in a love movie? In the end, he is together with goddess Yan Xi? Damn! Director, are you an idiot?"

"The feeling is very poor, as usual, the pretentious operation makes me want to sleep, it wastes my money and time! I suggest those crazy girls to go and watch it."

"It is very ordinary, and it uses "Those Years" for promotion? It really disappoints me. The drama is not related to each other, but it is forced to be linked to it just because the previous film of the leading actor is good? As an audience, I don’t understand it at all! What kind of operation is this?"

After two days, the box office of "The 101st Proposal" has been rising all the way, and it has risen to 48.3 million on Thursday, which shocked countless people.

"Together" has been falling all the way, and it has directly dropped to 100,000 on Thursday, which can be said to be a terrible mess!

This result directly shocked everyone in the circle!

You know, the investment cost of this movie is as high as 50 million, but after three days, the total box office has not even exceeded 2 million.

It is no exaggeration to say that this movie didn't even make back a fraction of Zhen Zixuan's salary!

What's even more disgusting is that at the end of the film, there was even a special subtitle thanking Guo Jingming, which made those who went to the movie feel sick as if they had eaten a fly.

Zhen Zixuan's idea of ​​transformation was suppressed before it even started, and he even gained a large number of black fans, so that he had to turn off the comments on Weibo to avoid being washed away by black fans.

However, the mainland media will not let him go, and various reports are directly in his face:

"The love movie "Together" starring Zhen Zixuan, the total box office of the first three days of the weekend did not exceed 2 million. After the suspension of the "Ip Man" series, Zhen Kung Fu has completely lost its box office appeal, and the transformation has failed again!"

Because the box office was too bad, it even affected the "Legend of the White-Haired Witch" that Zhen Zixuan and Fan Bingbing were filming.

Bona's Yu Dong was once again pulled out by netizens and was angrily criticized.

"You are so fucking blind. Why don't you choose someone else? You are actually going to lick those people in Hong Kong. Bona will be finished sooner or later if you follow you!"

I don't know if he was scared by being criticized, but Yu Dong didn't move at all. He was as low-key as a turtle shrinking in its shell.

As the first producer of the film, Huaxiaxing lost all its money!

In the meeting room of Huaxiaxing, the two brothers of the Xiang family looked very ugly.

It was not easy to withdraw the investment focus from Neon, and then took the line of Bona and re-entered the mainland cinema market.

But several consecutive movies lost all their money and lost a lot!

The company's performance in the past few years has been very poor. Now it is dragged down by this, and it will be difficult to move forward in the future.

"Next, let's look at the "Legend of the White-Haired Witch". We must not fail again, otherwise..."

Xiang Huaqiang couldn't say the rest of the words because he couldn't accept the tragic ending.

"It will definitely succeed!" Xiang Huasheng encouraged: "We have the top production team in Hong Kong, and Fan Bingbing, a top actress in the domestic entertainment industry. Plus the hype of 3D movies and the support of Bona's theater chain, we will definitely not lose!"

"That's right, definitely not!"

The two brothers encouraged each other, with a heroic attitude of "the hero will never come back".

On the other hand, the controversial Zhen Zixuan has returned to Hong Kong.

He did not immediately go to the crew of "Legend of the White-Haired Witch", but took two days off and drank alone at home.

He lost money on several movies in a row, which had affected his salary and endorsements.

In just half a year, all the high-end endorsements chose to leave him and turned to other people.

After leaving "Ip Man", he was completely struggling in the circle!

"Brother Chen, do you think we can apologize to them now and have a chance to re-release "Ip Man 3"?"

"Yes! Absolutely!" The agent was very sure: "The movie has been filmed, so there is no reason not to release it. They just want to control you."

"You mean, if I choose to admit my defeat, I will continue to be a coward in the future?"

Zhen Zixuan frowned, not liking this feeling very much.

He believed that the "Ip Man" series was a big hit because of his performance, so he should enjoy a high salary and a box office share of no less than 10%.

However, the two investors, Yinghuang and Feiyue Film and Television, have never agreed.

The agent nodded without hesitation: "That's for sure."

Zhen Zixuan fell into silence.

After a moment, he had made a decision: "Let's wait a little longer. After "Special Identity" and "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch" are released, maybe I can return to the peak again.

By then, we will have the confidence to negotiate!"
