Reborn Millennial Gamer

Orlando Private Club.

Founded by the wife of Wanda, it is located in the core area of ​​the Chang'an Avenue business district, next to the landmark building of Sijiu City, the International Trade Building.

Gao Yuanyuan was wearing an off-white down jacket, which was so long that it almost reached her ankles. From top to bottom, it tightly wrapped her bumpy figure, but it couldn't hide her pretty face.

Standing at the door, she saw Lu Fei get out of the car and came quickly, and said distressedly:

"Why are you waiting here?"

"Wait for you."

Gao Yuanyuan's cheeks were flushed, and she took his arm with a smile.

The two snuggled up to Room 505, opened the door and walked in. Han Sanping and Feng Pants appeared in sight, as expected.

It was Chen Kaige and Zhang Weiping who appeared suddenly, which made Lu Fei unavoidably surprised, and his presence also exceeded their expectations, greeting each one cautiously.

"Master Lu, Mr. Gao."

Feng Pants got up numbly.

Lu Fei nodded slightly, Gao Yuanyuan smiled and said, "Director Feng, congratulations, "A World Without Thieves" won a box office of 1.52 million."

"Where there is, how can it compare to "Kung Fu" starring Gao Zong and Master Xing."

Feng Pants nodded and bowed, without the demeanor of a great director.

After all, in the eyes of the audience, he is a famous director, but in the eyes of Master Lu and others, he is just begging on his knees.

"Director Feng, it's no shame to lose to Master Xing. You see, Yimou also lost. "House of Flying Daggers" sat at the top of the annual box office for half a year, but in the end it fell to the second place."

Zhang Weiping blatantly demoted and stomped on Feng's trousers.

"Hey, why is there no director Yimou at this dinner? He is the only one missing among the three major directors in the mainland."

Lu Fei ignored their intrigue, took off his coat, and sat with Gao Yuanyuan in the northwest corner of the round table, with no one on either side.

Han Sanping glanced at Zhang Weiping, and said with a smile: "Haha, isn't the Yanjing Olympic Organizing Committee going to hold the selection of the chief director this year? Yimou is currently focusing on this."

"It's not bad that he came to be the chief director."

Lu Fei smacked his lips, thinking of the neon Olympic Games, which is not the opening, it is like opening a tomb, and the people in the world are doing the work of the underworld.

With such a backdrop, 08 is simply a god among gods!
Perhaps director Zhang Yimou can't tell a good story, but that's a common problem of the fifth generation of directors. In terms of mise-en-scène and screen color, almost no one in China is better than a photographer.

"Hehe, I don't agree with Mr. Lu."

Hitting Brother Chen Kai who had been silent just now, he suddenly opened his mouth, and when he opened his mouth, he said in a tone of "literati respect":

"The closing ceremony in Athens in 04 was full of lanterns and waist drums. The 8-minute show was so earthy and vulgar. How many people felt that he could not be the chief director of the opening ceremony in 08."

"you!"

Zhang Weiping glared, and was about to vent his anger on his close friend Zhang Yimou, but Lu Fei took the lead: "Does that include you, Director Chen?"

"All I can say is, at least I would never mess around like that."

Brother Chen Kai raised his chin with pride.

Lu Fei looked like he didn't think it was a big deal, and he booed, "If it were Director Chen, what should we do at the opening ceremony?"

"Naturally, I want to show the beauty of the oriental artistic conception."

Brother Chen Kai raised his wine glass, took a sip, feeling extremely emotional, and immediately wrote a poem, reciting Du Fu's "Wearing the Officials and Soldiers Collected in Henan and Hebei" in its entirety:
"Suddenly outside the sword, it was rumored that Jibei was received, and the first time I heard tears filled my clothes.

But looking at what his wife is worried about, the manjuan poems and books are ecstatic..."

"puff!"

Lu Fei couldn't help laughing.

"Why is Mr. Lu laughing? Isn't this theme bad?"

Due to his terrifying strength and background, Brother Chen Kai forcibly suppressed the interrupted anger.

"No no, I just thought of something funny."

Lu Fei cleared his throat: "I didn't expect Director Chen to be a poet after filming so many scenes, but you don't want to say that at the selection meeting, do you?"

"Why not?"

Chen Kai's face was gloomy, and he continued to suppress his anger.

"Ahem, waiter! Waiter, serve!"

Seeing that the atmosphere was not right, Han Sanping hurriedly interrupted, "Mr. Lu, the palace-style dishes here are very authentic, especially braised shark's fin and antler three treasures. Try them later."

Lu Fei sold his face and stopped talking to Brother Chen Kai.

Fortunately, he was not allowed to come to the opening ceremony, and his "Day Meteor" is the worst performance in "My Motherland and Me". At this level, he is still very confident, and it may be at the same level as Neon.

After a while, the sumptuous dishes were served one after another.

The five chatted while eating, with Han Sanping leading the topic, and Feng's trousers threading the needle. The tense and dignified atmosphere gradually eased, at least on the surface, harmony was restored.

"The ones who came this time can be regarded as the best company bosses and directors in our mainland movie circle."

Han Sanping saw that the popularity was about the same, and said: "Brother Kai and Pants don't need much introduction. Mr. Lu and Mr. Gao's Han Tang, last year's single "Chain Saw" earned 1.2 million US dollars worldwide.

After "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Hero", this is the third movie with an investment of more than [-] million yuan from China..."

Feng Trousers, Zhang Weiping, and Brother Chen Kai all remained silent and turned their attention to Lu Fei.

He was shaking his red wine glass, and said with a smile: "Director Han, "Chain Saw" is actually strictly based on Hollywood's film industry and commercialization. Han Tang just found the right people and invested in the right money."

"President Lu summed it up to the root, the Hollywood business group operation model!"

Han Sanping patted the table: "It's exactly what the Chinese film industry lacks the most." Then he scanned around and said in a serious tone:
"05, that is, this year, is the 100th anniversary of Huaxia Film. To tell you the truth, from the General Administration of Optoelectronics to the Film Bureau, all leaders attach great importance to the revival of Huaxia Film. It is not about how many international awards they have won, but a higher box office and a bigger market. , more theaters.”

"Han Dong, you can't help but think that we are not. I only make movies, so I don't understand these things."

Feng Trousers complained: "But let me tell you, it's not easy for those of us who are in the movie business. I said in "Kung Fu" that there is no one in the movie theater on Sundays."

"Ah, no, the enthusiasm of the audience is high."

Zhang Weiping said: "The key is the theaters. There are too few theaters. The number of screens is less than 3000 yuan, which itself lowers the upper limit of the box office. I dare say it is 3 yuan. "Ambush on All Sides", "A World Without Thieves" At least 10 billion!"

Lu Fei took a sip of wine and agreed in his heart.

At present, there are 35 theater chains in China, but there are turbulent undercurrents among the major theater chains. The three largest theater chains are Lianhe of Shanghai Film Group, Xinlian Film Group of Beijing Film Group, and Xingmei of China Film Group.

The state-owned tripartite confrontation, such a saying circulated in the circle:
Sit in rows and eat fruit.

The reason why there will be more bad movies in the future than at the beginning of the millennium, but the box office will continue to rise, is nothing more than the expansion of private theaters such as Wanda, Dadi, and Jinyi.

"President Lu, what do you think?"

What Han Sanping wanted to hear most was his opinion.

"The size of the film market and distribution channels are just one of them. The core problem is that the production of films is too small, and there are even fewer commercial films."

Lu Fei said: "Even if there are so many screens and theaters, if there are no films to broadcast, how can it survive and expand theaters."

Gao Yuanyuan's eyes lit up, and she saw Feng Trousers clapping her hands in applause, and the applause was loud:

"Boss Lu is right!"

"Mr. Lu is worthy of being Mr. Lu, and he agrees with the opinions of the leaders. Yes, the revival of Chinese-language movies depends on the production in the final analysis. The annual production of 60 Bangzi movies can generate 120 billion box office."

Han Sanping saw it poorly, conveying the meaning of the above.

The four companies present have tried their best to produce a blockbuster film in the past two years. In terms of investment and review, China Film Group can help, and will definitely help.

"Han Dong, what kind of blockbuster movie is it?"

Gao Yuanyuan was excited, and interjected: "There are many types of commercial films, action films, costume films, comedy films, science fiction films..."

"The oriental costume blockbusters that can highlight Chinese culture, such as "Heroes", "House of Flying Daggers", and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" have already confirmed that this road works, so let's continue."

Han Sanping asked, "Do you have any questions?"

"No." Feng Pants said.

"I don't have any here, but I have to ask Yimou." Zhang Weiping straightened his body.

"It's a coincidence, Master Han!"

Brother Chen Kai said eloquently, with high hopes: "I recently wrote a book, which is to shoot China's first original oriental costume fantasy epic blockbuster, called "The Promise"."

"puff!"

Lu Fei almost spit out the wine he drank.

"Boss Lu, what are you laughing at?"

Brother Chen Kai's face is so gloomy that water drips out, I've been putting up with you for a long time, can you do whatever you want if you have money!
"Ah, I thought of something happy."

Lu Fei glanced at Gao Yuanyuan, and held back "my wife is pregnant" in his throat.

Han Sanping helplessly smoothed things over: "Mr. Lu, Mr. Gao, is there a problem with Hantang?"

Gao Yuanyuan was in trouble for a while, and turned her head to meet Lu Fei's eyes, resolute and confident, and came to the bottom for no reason:

"no!"

…………

In the dinner, eating is second.

As soon as the big event was finished, it ended hastily, and the banquet was over.

Along the way, Gao Yuanyuan lowered her head and did not answer her questions.

He didn't say a word until he returned home, and there were only two people in the whole villa, so he said weakly with a guilty conscience:
"Fei, I seem to have made a mistake."

Lu Fei smiled and said, "What mistake did you make?"

"I shouldn't say yes."

Gao Yuanyuan regretted it unceasingly. In the first Han and Tang Dynasties, there was no great director to sit in charge, and only Jiang Wei and Ning Hao could make a move.

Second, without the experience of blockbuster films, the first self-produced "Crazy Stone", whether it can be successful or not!

Even if it does, it's only a low-budget comedy, but now it's a blockbuster, with a cost of at least [-] to [-] million.

"Why not?"

Lu Fei took off his jacket: "Our boss must have confidence."

Gao Yuanyuan panicked: "What do you have! I dare not open my mouth to mention this at the year-end meeting."

Lu Fei said: ""Crazy Stone", this film won 1 million, don't you have confidence?"

"1 million? You coax me again, how is it possible."

Gao Yuanyuan rolled her eyes resentfully, "The cost of "A World Without Thieves" is also 3000 million, while "Stone" is only 800 million."

"Hey, do you want to make a bet?"

Lu Feichong frowned, revealing a smile that she didn't understand.

"You smile so treacherously."

Gao Yuanyuan curled her lips, "What do you want to bet, right?"

Lu Fei smiled, and leaned into her ear, his voice was as low as a demon whispering, he didn't know what he said, but seeing her cheeks flushed, he said in shame and annoyance:
"Why are you such a rascal, how could you even think of it there! Dirty, obscene, dirty, uh..."

Before Gao Yuanyuan could continue, he hugged her and pressed her on the sofa, convincing her with his mouth, and completely gagged her.

Like a green apple in the mouth, it is sour and sweet, and it enters the heart with traces, forgetting to linger.

After a while, Lu Fei let go of her panting heavily.

"Crush to death!"

Gao Yuanyuan blushed and pushed hard with her hands, but couldn't move. Seeing the man's smug face, she was annoyed for a moment, and opened her mouth to bite his lips.

"Uh……"

Lu Fei didn't cry out in pain and didn't move, he just let her bite.

Gao Yuanyuan bit it hard for a while, like biting a wooden man, she felt bored, she let go, and saw a little blood oozing from his lower lip.

Feeling distressed again at the moment, he stretched out his small tongue to softly lick the bloodstain, and then smacked it with his mouth, as if he was trying to taste something.

"Will you bet, Yuanyuan?"

Lu Fei hugged her into his arms and leaned on the sofa by himself.

"Besides, I'll bite you! You don't think there..."

Gao Yuanyuan was pecked again and stared coquettishly.

"Before the New Year, shall we go to your house?"

Lu Fei supported his upper body with one hand, stroked her long hair with the other, and passed his five fingers through the hair.

"Really?"

Gao Yuanyuan trembled all over.

Lu Fei touched her face: "There is still time, you can decide the time, the second elder should be at home these days, right?"

"My parents want to see you too."

Gao Yuanyuan nodded shyly, her eyes flooded with love like water, and said softly:
"How about the day of the year-end meeting?"

…………

Han and Tang.

It was probably the last meeting of the whole year. A group of high-level executives sat in the meeting room just because Lu Fei presided over it himself.

President Gao Yuanyuan, Vice President Zhong Lifang, Artiste Director Chang Jihong, Partner and Production Director Tang Danian, etc. were all present.

Among the people recorded by the side, there is Chen Zhixi.

As one of the few S-level producers in Chinese-language films, "Lost in Thailand" and "Tang Detective" are enough to prove her potential and are worth cultivating.

"This year's self-produced TV dramas have achieved gratifying results. "Fifty Years of the Golden Marriage" and "The Conspiracy" respectively won the crown of Yangma and Tomato TV's annual TV drama ratings. .”

Zhong Li Fanghui reported: "What is gratifying is that "The Voice of China", which is the first time to test the waters of variety shows, has made a successful start, and it will definitely be our cornucopia in the future."

"Does Mama Yang also want to cooperate with us in variety shows?"

Lu Fei twirled the ballpoint pen with his fingertips.

Zhong Lifang said: "Yes, we have discussed several times to implement Mr. Lu's ideas and cooperate with the Cultural Channel to launch a quiz program, "The Most Powerful Brain."

"it is good!"

Lu Fei said: "You can discuss sponsorship with Qilixiang."

"Then, let's talk about the 05 film list."

Zhong Lifang said with a straight face: "The TV series include "Happiness is Like a Flower" and "Latent"..."

Lu Fei flipped through the casting list for "Latent":

Apart from Sun Honglei, the leading actor, and Qin Hailu, the leading actress, the supporting cast includes Zeng Li, Gao Yuanyuan, Zheng Tong, Wu Gang, Deng Chao...

There are even guest appearances by Feng Yuanzheng and Yuan Quan.

This cast is simply a high-profile version, at least one of the top three of the year. The reason why it is not firmly seated at the top is because of "Baolian Lantern" and "Hanwu Emperor", not to mention Wang Zhazhiwang—

"Bright Sword".

The audience at the beginning of the millennium is the happiest. After you sing, I will go on stage. There are so many good dramas that it is too late to change channels.

"There is also a "Wulin Biography"."

As soon as Zhong Lifang finished speaking, Lu Fei let out a little surprise, "Wulin rumors?"

"Ahem, it's a martial arts sitcom. The director is Shang Jing. It was recommended by a buddy of mine. It specializes in making sitcoms. "The Story of the Cooking Class" was made by him."

Tang Danian hurriedly explained: "But no one was willing to invest, so they came to me."

Gao Yuanyuan smiled and said, "I've read the script, it's weird but really interesting, so I decided to approve it for 2000 million, is it okay?"

"I believe in your vision, but 40 episodes are too few, let's write 80 episodes."

Lu Fei picked up the schedule, which contained various information: production cost, producer director, cast lineup, first/second/final script, planned completion time...

"Ah, episode 80!?"

Gao Yuanyuan, Tang Danian and others were all shocked.

"The number of episodes of a sitcom is not too high. There are more than 200 episodes of "Friends" abroad. Of course, don't let them write it for nothing, and add an additional budget of 1000 million. Is there a problem?"

What Lu Fei said was an understatement. If it wasn't for the fear that the writing would collapse, he would have asked "Wulin Biography" to write more than 100 episodes.

"I'll go ask Shang Jing and the others in a while."

Tang Danian swallowed his saliva, not daring to make a promise.

"continue."

Lu Fei glanced at Zhong Lifang, and she went on to talk about the movie, besides "Green Red" which is currently being filmed, "Crazy Stone", which is scheduled to be released in the summer, is an oriental blockbuster boasting Haikou.

Tang Danian and other people in the audience cast their eyes on the two who were the instigators.

Gao Yuanyuan turned her head away, guilty of not daring to look at each other.

Zhong Lifang said helplessly: "Since Mr. Lu agreed in front of Director Han, he will do what he says no matter what. Do you have any plans for this blockbuster movie?"

Lu Fei smiled as he sat firmly on the Diaoyutai:

"Wang Jing is still in Yanjing, call him here."
