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

Chapter 1005 New opportunities for Chairman Lada and China Film? Chairman Chen... I'll leave Tiantian to you!
Amidst the uproar, No. 27 passed away quietly.

Early in the morning on the 28th, netizens' attention fell on the latest day's box office performance of "The Ferryman".

When the result of "590.84 million" appeared, the Internet suddenly became lively as if it was New Year's Day.

"Hahaha, good, great, this result is amazing, just kill this crappy movie, tell him he doesn't respect the fans, it deserves it!"

"Where's Wang Jiawei? Why is there no movement? Come out and jump again!"

"I don't like it. Who agrees with me? Come on, let's set up a formation and have some fun."

"I dont like it either."

"I really don't like it, hahaha..."

It's a rare day for him to be so happy today. Netizens have been flooding the Internet with messages, constantly praising Wang Jiawei.

At this time, far away in Hong Kong, in the headquarters of Huanxi Media, Dong Ping was persuading Wang Jiawei.

"Director Wang, please don't show up in the near future. Take a good rest first. Don't pay attention to the noise online. In fact, it's just a bunch of bored netizens making a fuss. There's no need to pay attention to them..."

Dong Ping could probably guess what Wang Jiawei was feeling.

But he was not going to let Huanxi Media join in to fight against Chen Fei. After all, the lesson of Enlightenment Pictures was still before them!
He is a pure businessman who only thinks about making money, even if it means suffering a loss.

Therefore, when faced with Wang Jiawei's idea of ​​coming to ask for help, Dong Ping directly suppressed him.

Huanxi cannot get involved in such matters. Even though Wang Jiawei is a member of Huanxi's "Big Director Alliance", he is still unwilling to come forward.

The Feiyue Film and Television system is so powerful and terrifying. Coupled with Chen Fei's extremely "young" capital, this is totally incomparable to the current Huanxi!
At this time, Wang Jiawei knew that his request for help was futile and he no longer wanted to stay. After saying goodbye to Dong Ping, he returned to his Zedong Film Company in a depressed mood.

Although he became angrier and more depressed the more he thought about it, he couldn't find anyone to help him.

Looking around, those people who had supported him on Weibo before have now become silent. They are like turtles, hiding themselves very well.

Wang Jiawei could understand their behavior. After all, even he himself couldn't do anything about Chen Fei, let alone others.

Alibaba Pictures used to have a very good relationship with him, but with the failure of "The Ferryman", the two sides completely broke up.

But Huanxi didn't want him to get involved in these messy things.

In this situation, he seemed to be isolated and helpless.

"Humph! Things change over time... I want to see if you can keep being so arrogant. One day I will find an opportunity and I will take my revenge!"

He uttered some vicious words in his office, and then... Wang Jiawei was completely silent.

As for whether Alibaba Pictures will suffer huge losses in the stock market due to the failure of "The Ferryman", it has nothing to do with him. Anyway, he has already earned all the money he should have earned, so let Zhang Qie worry about it himself.

At the same time, at China Film, La Peikang was also having a headache.

2016 will end in 4 days, but the big project he led this year, "The Great Wall", is completely doomed.

Yesterday, the daily new box office of "The Great Wall" was only over 1500 million, and the total box office has just reached 8.5 million!
Under this circumstance, even if the box office extension continues until the end of February, I'm afraid the total box office will only be able to barely reach 2 billion to 12 billion.

If it were an ordinary low-budget movie, this result would actually be very impressive.

But the problem now is that the investment in the "The Great Wall" project is as high as 10 billion RMB!
Even if China Film only occupies half of the share, that is still 5 million real money invested.

And judging by the current situation, this money will definitely be wasted!

Under such circumstances, how could China Film Group's performance this year be good? Forget about the revenue, just barely breaking even is already pretty good.

This result was only achieved with the 5% help from "Operation Red Sea". If it weren't for this movie with a box office of over 40 billion, I'm afraid this year's performance report would have been negative!
"Ugh!"

With a long sigh, La Peikang shook his head helplessly.

We can barely get by by hiding things this year, but what about next year?

"The Chase" with Wu Yu, "Monster Hunt 2" with Edko Films, and "Sky Hunter" invested in the Air Force Political Department...

From the current perspective, these three projects should be launched during next year’s National Day, New Year’s Day, and the Spring Festival the year after respectively.

I just don’t know if these projects can help China Film Group take off again?

To be honest, La Peikang was really unsure because in these projects, China Film Group only joined as a participating investor and did not have the right to control or interfere with the operation and filming of the crew.

Therefore, in order to stabilize the morale of the troops, he now urgently needs a top-level project that is large enough to cover up the failure of "The Great Wall" and at the same time make the share price of China Film Corporation rise sharply!
"'Ghost Blows Out the Light' and 'Detective Chinatown' are top projects. China Film Group can also imitate them, but the uncertainty is too great.

A realistic film like "Dying to Survive" is doomed to not get high box office and cannot solve the current urgent needs of China Film.

"The Wandering Earth" is a good project, but... ah!"

After a long sigh, La Peikang's heart was filled with a deep sense of loss for a moment.

Science fiction is a good subject, with plenty of gimmicks and a large cast...

Suddenly! La Peikang's eyes widened!
"Science fiction? This theme is great! Why can't China Film Group organize a group and make a science fiction movie?"

The more he thought about it, the more La Peikang felt that this was a good idea!

And when he thought of the word "science fiction", a project that was very suitable for investment suddenly popped up in his mind!
He casually pushed the documents in front of him aside, took out his cell phone and made a call.

"Beep beep..."

After a moment, the call was successfully connected.

La Peikang smiled and greeted him, "Director Teng? Are you busy recently? I remember hearing you say before that you have a very good science fiction film project and you are looking for investors recently. I wonder if there is any progress?"

On the other end of the phone, Teng Huatao's eyes suddenly lit up: "I have already negotiated with Huashi for 1/3 of the intended investment funds. How come Mr. La is also interested in this project?"

La Peikang didn't bother to play Tai Chi with him and said bluntly: "Director Teng, if it's convenient, why not give your..."

"The name of the project is "Shanghai Fortress", it is a top science fiction masterpiece!" Teng Huatao introduced hurriedly.

"Oh! Yes! It's Shanghai Fortress. Look at my brain, I can't remember it for a moment, haha."

La Peikang smiled and said, "I actually took the time to read the original novel some time ago. The author Jiangnan wrote it very well and it is very suitable for adaptation into a movie..."

"How about this, Mr. La, we can't really get to the point over the phone. How about we find a time, I'll bring Jiangnan and the project over, and we can sit down and have a good chat?"

"Okay, then tomorrow, how about that?"

"Well, OK, no problem, I'll go to the Central Film Academy to see you tomorrow."

Teng Huatao said this with a smile, unable to hide his excitement.

If the project "Shanghai Fortress" can get investment from China Film, then he will be more confident about the success of this project!
At this time, La Peikang had the same idea.

If the project "Shanghai Fortress" can be successful, and even surpass "The Wandering Earth" invested and produced by Feiyue Film and Television, then China Film will be very awesome, and he can naturally hold this position for a longer period of time!
At this moment, the two people on both sides of the phone had a sentence in their minds almost at the same time:

"Don't miss this opportunity, it will never come back again!"

……

Before preparing to go to India, Chen Fei still has a very "important" job to do, which is to visit the crew of "The Wandering Earth"!
Guo Fan had already started filming for nearly half a month. Although he had been reporting in the group that everything was going smoothly, Chen Fei did not have a definite answer as to the actual situation.

On the contrary, the producer sent by the company to the crew kept praising Guo Fan, saying that he was rigorous in scheduling and that all matters of the crew were arranged in an orderly manner...

In order to verify the authenticity of these situations, Chen Fei deliberately launched a "surprise attack"!
He did not bring anyone with him. He flew to Shanxi Province alone on the morning of the 29th and went straight to the filming base of "The Wandering Earth". Then, with the help of an "insider" in the crew, he quietly sneaked into the crew.

At this time, the filming work of the crew is progressing smoothly.

The male lead "Liu Qi" and the female lead "Han Duoduo" are preparing to sneak out of the underground city to the surface to have a day of fun! But before going out, they have to get their equipment first.

Lei Jiayin plays the role of "Brother Yi", the equipment dealer.

Wearing a big gold chain and dressed fiercely, he did not think much when facing the two babies. While eating the skewers of meat that Liu Qi brought him, he handed the equipment to them and helped them to forge their identities.

After the two of them changed their equipment, Lei Jiayin walked in while reminding them, "Remember to return your equipment tomorrow."

"Thank you, brother. I'm leaving."

Liu Qi responded while dragging his sister out the door.

However, in the next second, Zhao Jinmai's words "You're not coming back, are you?" made Lei Jiayin, the leader of the equipment dealers in the room, laugh out of anger.

"You're not coming back? With just this little stuff of yours, you want to cheat me out of two sets of clothes?"

Liu Qi was still explaining, but his words obviously could no longer convince Lei Jiayin.

The fight broke out instantly!

"Kill him for me!!!"

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

With a loud roar, the scene of pursuit and interception officially began.

~

Chen Fei did not show up the entire morning. Instead, he hid in the crowd and quietly watched the entire filming process directed by Guo Fan.

Because there were so many staff and extras on the scene, he was not conspicuous hidden in the crowd.

The staff thought he was an extra, while the extras thought he was a staff member of a certain department, and thus a wonderful misunderstanding was born.

He waited until noon, when the filming of the scenes about Liu Qi and Zhao Jinmai "escaping" from the underground city was completed. Then he appeared behind Guo Fan calmly and suddenly clapped his hands!
The crew was very quiet at this moment, all sounds were paused, and everyone was waiting for the director to watch the playback.

At this moment, Chen Fei's sudden applause undoubtedly attracted the attention of the entire crew!

The staff not far away glared at him and was about to shout to stop him, but the next second he saw Chen Fei taking off his mask and was stunned.

what's the situation?
Why did the boss come here suddenly?
At this moment, Guo Fan just turned around.

"Hey?! Director Chen! Why did you come here so quietly? You scared me!"

Guo Fan didn't have time to continue watching the replay, and quickly stood up and greeted Chen Fei.

"Haha, I got here early in the morning. I saw you guys were busy with the filming, so I didn't disturb you. I've been following behind..."

After a whole morning of observation, Chen Fei has come to the most realistic conclusion.

Guo Fan has indeed grown up and no longer has the immature appearance and state he had when filming "Gravity" and "The Martian".

Especially in terms of organization and coordination skills, he has demonstrated outstanding performance!
Although he did not leave the monitor throughout the morning, each department carried out its work in an orderly manner under his walkie-talkie dispatch.

Just with this ability alone, he is worthy of the title of “great director”!

You know, if a director fails to coordinate the crew well, it will greatly increase the difficulty of filming and cause the production cost to soar rapidly!

The most direct negative example was when Rikutaro was filming "The Banquet".

Due to the inability to arrange large scenes, the film had been stuck in a funding impasse several times. In the end, even though Emperor Entertainment Group and Star Media continued to support him, he still handed in a terrible answer!

Compared with Lu Tailang, Guo Fan's level and ability in handling large scenes is simply a "miracle".

At the same time, while the two were chatting, the rest of the crew also rushed over after hearing the news.

Wu Jing even started shouting from a distance: "Oh my gosh! The director of the 40 billion box office movie is here to visit the set! The crew of The Wandering Earth is celebrating the New Year today!"

Chen Fei smiled and gave him a hug. Then he looked at his makeup and said teasingly, "Hey? How come you suddenly look so much younger?"

Wu Jing shrugged, his face full of helplessness.

"I can't help it. Director Guo asked me to play a role in which he is a new father at the beginning, and then the timeline soon spans 17 years. If I don't dress younger now, the audience will be distracted."

"Tsk tsk, when you first started hanging out with me in Hollywood, you were still the 'Ah Fei' in 'The Flying Dagger of Xiao Li', as young as a fresh meat. But now, it's not even a few years later, and you're almost turning into a middle-aged uncle."

"Oh, a wise man never brags about his past achievements, haha!"

~

At noon, Chen Fei ate box lunch with the crew.

He couldn't stay with the crew of "The Wandering Earth" for too long. He had to fly back to the capital at night, and then fly to India tomorrow afternoon...

If nothing unexpected happens, I will spend this New Year's Day abroad.

However, when Guo Fan heard that Chen Fei was leaving in the evening, he quickly said, "Director Chen, you just happened to come over. Don't make a wasted trip! How about playing a cameo role for me? Let us take advantage of your popularity."

A guest role?

Fade Chen raised his eyebrows and looked at him curiously: "What kind of guest role is it? It's not a big part, right? I don't have time to come here often."

"Not much, not much." Guo Fan assured quickly: "It will only take a few seconds in the finished film. You just need to wear cold-proof gear and drive the forklift in front of the camera. It's that simple..."

He had originally planned to guest-star in this role himself, but now with the arrival of Chen Fei, he undoubtedly had a better choice!

Even though this scene only lasts a few seconds, if promoted properly, with Chen Fei's explosive popularity and box office appeal, it can at least bring "The Wandering Earth" a box office of no less than nine figures!
Therefore, in just a moment, Guo Fan decided to let Chen Fei play this role as a guest.

So after dinner, Fade Chen sat in the dressing room and started putting on makeup...

It was not until he got on the forklift and started the engine that he suddenly came to his senses!
"Eh? That's not right? Didn't I come here to visit the set? Why am I playing a cameo role out of nowhere?"

……

After a night, it was the penultimate day of 2016.

At nine o'clock in the morning, the latest day's box office data announcement was released.

"The Great Wall, a Sino-US co-production of a fantasy blockbuster, had a box office of 29 million yesterday, the 1521.3th - Maoyan Movies."

"The action and comedy film Railroad Tigers, co-starring Chen Long and his son, closed at 2512.2 million yesterday."

"The comedy and romance film The Ferryman, produced by director Wong Kar-wai, only had 211.65 million left at the box office yesterday, and its box office potential is about to be exhausted."

"The mainstream commercial blockbuster "Operation Red Sea" was released for 29 days and the box office closed at 2043 million RMB yesterday. The box office potential is still strong!"

"At 12:24.6 am last night, the comedy film "Love Saint" co-produced by New Classics Media and Wanda Films and starring Xiao Yang, Ni Ni, Xiao Shenyang and others was officially released, and the first day's comprehensive screening accounted for as high as %!"

"..."

The heat of the Lunar New Year period is still lingering, the Spring Festival period is just around the corner, and many Hollywood imported blockbusters are ready to go... All of this proves that the Chinese-language film market will continue to be booming in 2017!

All the crew members of the "Dying to Survive" filming in India are ready and they can officially board the plane at 4 pm.

Chen Fei originally planned to sleep in the morning, then get up at noon and have lunch with Liu Yifei before heading straight to the airport.

However, a phone call interrupted his "sleeping in plan"!
At 10:, when he arrived at the company, he saw Jing Tian and Lu Zheng already waiting for him in the reception room.

When they saw him coming, the two people who were originally sitting on the sofa immediately stood up and greeted him.

However, before Chen Fei could say hello, the first words Lu Zheng said scared him!
"Boss Chen! Tiantian's future...I entrust it to you!"
