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

Chapter 276 Chinese Director No. 1, Wu Yu’s mentality is broken... Fast guy?The terrifying power of the Golden Palm!
After the first-day opening box office of "The Twilight Saga" appeared, online reviews began to increase.

Some people said they liked it very much. The beautiful pictures and attractive plot satisfied the admiration of love among boys and girls.

However, a large number of people said that they could not accept this extremely bloody plot and made crazy complaints. Some even published articles saying that they were very disappointed with Chen Fei...

But this does not prevent the box office from continuing to rise.

When returning to the set of "Mulan", Chen Fei received a call from Natasha.

On the other end of the phone, the girl was very excited: "In the first three days of the first weekend, the North American box office has approached US$3000 million. Can this movie with an investment of less than US$[-] million still catch up with "Rise of the Planet of the Apes"?"

"Stop daydreaming."

Chen Fei poured cold water on her directly: "This type of movie makes money from fans of the book. It may be popular for a while, but it won't last long. It's good to get 2 million in North America."

This is just like the movie Zhou Jie discusses. Regardless of the movie and his acting skills, fans can push the box office of the movie to [-] million just by relying on his name!

That’s the power of fans turning to movies!

The explosive power is strong, but the durability is not very good. It is a little stronger than Xie Xie, but not much better...

"Well, it seems my expectations are too high."

Natasha was still a little disappointed...

"Hey? It's easy for you to go from frugality to luxury, but it's hard to go back from luxury to frugality. With an investment of 3000 million US dollars, you can collect US$2 million in North America alone. What else do you want?"

"That's true, hee hee, you're busy, I'm going to keep an eye on the preparations for Twilight 2."

...

After hanging up the phone, while Liu Yifei was putting on makeup, Chen Fei called Han Sanping again.

"What is Twilight's domestic box office on the first day?"

"It was 1300 million yuan on the first day, and it is 3600 yuan today. According to this trend, there is a high probability that it will reach about 1.3 million yuan."

As he said this, Han Sanping was inexplicably envious: "I'm just wondering, how did you get such a brain? You can change the style of the movie, but you can still make money!"

Box office data about "The Twilight Saga" in North America has appeared on Sina.com.

Three days, nearly 8 million US dollars, which is nearly [-] million yuan.

Many people are going crazy looking at this data!
Chen Fei shrugged, "The fan effect and market size determine the box office performance. If you are envious, then quickly expand the domestic theater chain..."

"Forget it and wait."

Han Sanping is passionate about investing in high-production blockbusters.

But if he was asked to develop theater chains under China Film Group Corporation, he always felt that he didn't have much confidence, so he kept playing with Sosou and didn't dare to expand.

On the contrary, Pan-Asia Cinemas, which is owned by Golden Harvest, has recently been fully launched in Shenzhen City and is expanding wildly with Shenzhen City as the center.

Chen Fei specifically told Huo Qigang that if he wanted to make money, he should use at least 2/3 of the theater's revenue for expansion, and the remaining 1/3 for maintenance and daily consumption.

All good things are waiting behind, the storm is coming soon, among these flying pigs, Pan-Asia Cinemas must be the fattest one!

North American data changes day by day, and overall the trend is very good. This also makes the two Wang brothers who are visiting the crew of "The King of Kung Fu" very envious.

"Brother, do you think our film's performance can surpass that of "Twilight"?"

"I think it's okay." Wang Zhongjun analyzed it quite seriously: "Twilight's box office growth seems to be very fast, but basically it is the female fans who are chasing it, just like chasing stars. This model will not last long. , after all, book fans are fixed.

Our "The King of Kung Fu" contains international superstars such as Chen Long and Li Lianjie. Their fans are no less than Twilight's fans, so it is inevitable to surpass the former! "

This was said with great certainty, and Wang Zhonglei immediately beamed,

"Then I'm relieved. If the investment of 7000 million US dollars can reach 3 million US dollars in North America, it will be a great victory."

Both of them are looking forward to a bright future, but on the crew of "Red Cliff", Wu Yu's face is dark.

Ever since he was "driven" back from Hollywood, he has been looking for opportunities to show those foreigners what it means not to bully the middle-aged and poor.

And "Red Cliff" is the turnaround battle he is about to fight!

He wanted to let those foreigners know that he, Wu Yu, was not exhausted, and the failure of "Wind Talker" was not his fault at all.

At the very least, the box office results he has created in North America and around the world as a Chinese cannot be faked.

however…

In 05, Chen Fei emerged from the limelight by winning the Golden Bear Award and rushed directly to Hollywood.

A movie called "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" and a movie called "Iron Man", coupled with his status as the chief content executive of Volton Pictures and Marvel Pictures, directly pushed Wu Yu's pride to the ground and rubbed it hard.

"Mission: Impossible 2" has a global box office of 5.46 million. Before 06, this was the best result created by a Chinese director on a global scale.

But Chen Fei refreshed this list twice!
"Rise of the Planet of the Apes" US$7.5 million!

"Iron Man" US$8.7 million!

After learning about this situation, Wu Yu once expressed that it was difficult to accept it.

If he wants to turn around now, he must at least push the total global box office of "Red Cliff" to more than 8.7 million US dollars before he can regain the title of "No. 1 Chinese Director".

But can this be done on horseback?

"Ka! Hu Jun, what's wrong with you? You make Zhao Yun look like a bitch! How do you mainland actors learn to act?"

On the set, Hu Jun, who was holding a spear, frowned as he listened to Wu Yu yelling.

I?
pussy?

"Are you going blind when you step on the horse?"

Hu Jun cursed secretly in his heart, and almost couldn't help but hit Wu Yu seven times in and seven out.

He secretly vowed that after the filming of "Red Cliff" is completed, he will never cooperate with directors from Hong Kong Island.

What kind of evil things are you doing?
Lin Zhiling on the side was also full of suspicion.

Is there something wrong with Director Wu's mind?Such a manly "Zhao Yun", you actually said he looks like a pussy?
...

The news that "The Mummy 3" will be filmed in the Terracotta Warriors and Horses, and that Yang Ziqiong beat Gong Li and Zhang Ziyi to win the role of "Wise Woman" reached Chen Fei's ears at the same time.

"Photographing the First Emperor like a mummy? Can this horse-riding person pass the trial? Do those people have tumors in their brains?"

In the crew, Chen Daoming rarely lost his temper, and it was obvious that he could not bear this kind of operation.

"Attract foreign investment."

Chen Fei only used four simple words to extinguish the anger of a bunch of people.

"When can we really stand up?" Chen Daoming felt very aggrieved.

"One's own strength is the real strength!"

Chen Fei replied lightly, and then shouted to everyone to continue filming.

Cultural self-confidence takes time to improve, but according to the current situation, it is obvious that the country does not have this condition.

It's not enough for Chen Fei to speed up the pace on his own.

The crew of "2012" sent an email.

North American box office 2.3 million US dollars.

The global box office total is 6.54 billion US dollars.

In China, according to news released by China Film Group Corporation, "2012" grossed 3 million yuan after one month of release, directly defeating imported films such as "Iron Man" and "Spider-Man 3" and maintaining its unrivaled status. Box office trends.

Obviously, the June schedule is also occupied by Hollywood blockbusters...

But this situation is actually normal. After all, many film and television companies in the mainland have participated in the investment of "2012", so the film bureau did not deliberately block the film schedule.

It is precisely because of this that the group of people in the circle are completely enlightened.

Blockbusters are really profitable!

Hollywood movies are really stupid!
There was no publicity in advance, and it reached [-] million yuan, almost breaking the data of "China Partner"!

There were several leaders at the film bureau whose legs were shaking.

They simply can't imagine that if the number of imported Hollywood films is completely released, to what extent will domestic films be suppressed?
I'm afraid, except for Feiyue Film and Television, other film companies have no chance to stop it!

In fact, Chen Fei was completely happy to hear about this kind of thing.

Letting them see a real "disaster" will also be conducive to the development of the domestic film and television industry. After all, there is motivation only when there is oppression.

"Director Chen, come on, lend me your cell phone and I'll vote."

"what?"

A shout brought Chen Fei back from his thoughts.

Somewhat curiously, he handed over the phone and watched Jing Tian operate it. Chen Fei suddenly felt a little puzzled.

“Who are you voting for?”

"wake!"

"The one with the fast guy?"

"Yes, yes, that's him. He and I are from the same hometown, and he is the overall champion of the Western Conference!"

Looking at the excited Jing Tian, ​​Chen Fei silently took out another mobile phone from his pocket, and then voted for Chen Chusheng without hesitation.

In comparison, he prefers this.

Suddenly, Zhou Yang muttered from the side: "I actually like Zhang Si better." Liu Yifei's gossip soul burned brightly, "I heard that Zhang Si and that female host..."

"Be careful with your words and actions!"

Seeing Chen Fei's expression was wrong, Liu Yifei pursed her lips and quickly shut up.

There are too many people in the crew, and if word gets out about any loudmouth, she will get into a lot of trouble.

The filming of the final stage of "Mulan" was not easy. The war scenes between Rouran and the Northern Wei Dynasty were very frequent. In order to pursue the perfection of the shots, each big scene always had to be shot many times before it could be successfully shot.

The general played by Jiao Enjun is really awesome, and every move he makes shows his general style!
It's a pity that no matter how good the filming is, it can't make up for the shortcomings of the family.

His daughter is really not a fuel-efficient person. The key is that she doesn't know how to be grateful!
The promotion of "House of Thieves" has been very hot recently. With the popularity of "The Twilight Saga" and the Palme d'Or, movie fans are looking forward to this film.

The box office pre-sale has ended.

Shanghai Film and Pan Asia sold a total of 2000 million yuan in box office, which also means that they can have such high box office data on just the first day!
And this is only the lowest figure, because most other theater chains have not started pre-sale activities, but they will definitely not miss the mark in terms of film arrangement.

"Ip Man 2" and "Overheard 2" are both lined up at the back, and they are also busy with promotions recently.

On this day, after the promotion, Zhou Xun, Wang Zhiwen, Wan Qian, and Zhu Zhu came to visit the "Mulan" crew.

Chen Fei was quite happy at first, but what he didn't expect was that these people brought him uncomfortable news.

Lin Daiyu left after all...

I have only been a monk for three months and am unwilling to undergo chemotherapy.

In a world without Teacher Xu, after all, no one can persuade her.

Zhou Xun is famous for his courage in speaking and doing, and he cursed: "Those people are really mean. They have been scolding them on the Internet before, but now that they know they are gone, they start to mourn hypocritically."

Chen Fei's expression was gloomy, these horse-riding people are all people who eat human blood steamed buns, and they will be punished sooner or later.

But it’s also a problem for actors to get too involved in the play.

A play lasts for several years including training and filming, and the actors have to bring themselves into the role themselves. This is a different kind of "bullying".

The veteran actors are better, but those young actors who are ignorant will definitely not be able to get out of the situation for a while.

Coupled with physical reasons, it will inevitably lead to regrets!

Chen Fei suddenly thought of the foreign actor who played the clown, and Jim Carrey. Most of them were too involved in the drama, which led to depression, withdrawn personality and other states.

Open the portal, and there are condolences online.

But how many people really mean it?

...

Marvel sent an email saying that Industrial Light and Magic had agreed to cooperate in the production of "Game of Thrones."

Originally, Chen Fei was going to let the team from Volton Pictures work, but because the animation studio was really too busy, he simply transferred the special effects team over.

The studio is constantly recruiting people, leading new ones with the old, and is working hard to expand.

There will be follow-up sci-fi masterpieces such as "Thor" and "Captain America", and there are many job opportunities. Now I am afraid that they will not be able to keep up, and there is no need to worry about having no work.

Natasha called and asked Chen Fei when he would start preparations for "Rise of the Planet of the Apes 2".

"You can help me find a director. I will provide the script and be the producer for the subsequent sequels, and let others film them."

On the other end of the phone, Natasha was quite surprised, "Huh? Aren't you going to do it yourself?"

"No." Chen Fei shook his head and refused: "Let alone the follow-up to Rise of the Planet of the Apes, even if it is the follow-up to Iron Man, I will find another director to film it."

"why?"

"I like to create new works, not sequels."

"All right……"

Shrugging helplessly, Natasha began to search through the memories in her mind to find a suitable director.

But at this time, Chen Fei suddenly said: "The production of the second and third parts of Twilight must be more refined. In terms of special effects, we can find a company that is far ahead in the industry.

The fees can be superimposed, but the picture must be enlarged for me. I don’t want to reach the state of Harry Potter, but at least it can’t be too different. "

The top-notch blockbusters in Hollywood are all jointly participated by Duojia special effects company. After all, everyone has their own strengths.

Although this will lead to an increase in production costs, the final effect displayed on the screen will definitely amaze the audience!
And judging from the box office data of the first Twilight movie, it is worthy of a higher investment by Walton Pictures.

Even though the film bureau is stuck in scheduling films, the domestic box office still reached 4000 million yuan in the first week.

As for foreign countries, it is even more exaggerated. It has almost exceeded 1.5 million U.S. dollars after three days of release. Now a week has passed, and the box office has successfully exceeded [-] million U.S. dollars.

In the Hollywood movie market in June, this figure was second only to "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban".

As for 20th Century Fox's "Fantastic Four 2", it is completely suppressed!
It can be seen that the box office results of the next second and third parts will definitely not be too bad.

Additional investment is urgent!
...

Time will gradually dilute everything, and mourning did not last long.

Lin Daiyu will live in the hearts of fans forever, and she has completely escaped the abuse on the Internet. Perhaps she will go to a time and space where she can be happy.

The release of Shoplifters is getting closer.

Most of the news about this movie has been posted on major portals recently.

For the sake of the movie's box office, Ren Zhonglun spared no effort and went to the extreme in terms of publicity.

Guangguang also took the initiative to invite the main creative team to appear on the show and conduct various publicity.

Even Chen Fei accepted an interview despite his busy schedule.

Wang Changtian assigned Xie Nan to the crew of "Mulan".

As soon as the heroic girl arrived at the scene, a bunch of people gathered around her to say hello. Chen Fei saw Wu Jing staring straight at them, as if he wanted to pounce on them and eat them.

"Damn, a bunch of perverts."

Rolling his eyes, Chen Fei picked up the loudspeaker and drove those guys to train.

"Sorry, I didn't scare you, did I?"

"No."

Xie Nan shook his head, smiled and said he didn't care. After all, he was a host, and his field control ability and psychological quality were quite strong.

"If it's convenient for you, can we start the interview directly?"

"it is good."

Chen Fei nodded, ordered Zhu Yawen to move two chairs over, and started recording the show in the open air.

In fact, he was quite curious about how the matter between Liu Yan and Brother Chen Kai was handled in the end, but after thinking about it, it was better not to gossip.

As long as the light was on, Brother Chen Kai wouldn't be able to do anything to her.

After the interview, Xie Nan didn't stay on the set any longer and left the set.

The movie will be released soon, and editing still needs to be done. I'm afraid I'll have to work overtime to finish it when I get back.

...

Saturday, July 7th.

On the day "Shoplifters" was released, Chen Fei took a day off and took a group of people from the crew to watch the movie.

Because there were so many people, he simply booked several screening rooms.

Ren Zhonglun also wanted to hold a premiere, but Chen Fei refused.

This kind of movie that contains suffering and tragedy is not suitable for a lively premiere. It can be released directly in theaters.

The audience's word of mouth will be the best publicity!

Before the movie started, Liu Yifei asked curiously: "What kind of movie is this?"

Several people around them turned their heads, waiting for Fade Chen to give them answers.

"Full of love and warmth, but also tinged with indifference and cruelty."

With curiosity and doubts, everyone began to watch the main film.

The story begins when the father and son pick up a little girl hiding on the balcony on their way home...

The 117-minute movie is like a healing sugar coating wrapped around a bitter core.

When Zhou Xun broke down and cried in the interrogation room, bursts of sobs could be heard in the theater.

And when the father played by Wang Zhiwen said goodbye to his "son", the unforgettable bond was entangled together, giving people an unspeakable helplessness and depression!

There is no doubt that this is a movie that people can relate to!

It is worthy of the Palme d'Or recognition.

On the 15th, the first-day box office of "Shoplifters" was officially announced by Shanghai Film Group.

Due to the factors of advance pre-sale and the support of other theaters in various film arrangements and promotions, the box office on the first day directly blinded the eyes of countless people in the industry.

4850 RMB!

The Palme d'Or is truly terrifying!
