It's reasonable for me, a stuntman, to live a crazy life, right?
Chapter 513: ‘Insert the Knife’ is coming, and so are the Hollywood wolves! Competition and finesse
Chapter 513: ‘Insert the Knife’ is coming, and so are the Hollywood wolves! Competition and finesse between actresses!
A wave of unrest, a wave of up!
The news about the Beidian Arts Examination is still high on the news page, and it has not yet come to an end. New twists and turns are suddenly coming!
The time has just entered late February, and a red-headed document suddenly appeared on the official website of the Film Bureau, which marked the latest Sino-US film import agreement.
文件中明确表示:“从2012年开始,好莱坞进口分账电影从20部增加至34部,并且全部以lMAX和3D电影为主,且分账比例从13%调整到25%……”
Less than half an hour later, Chen Fei's phone was bombarded with calls!
"The wolf is coming!"
Wang Changtian's tone was full of fear. He didn't think that the next movies that Enlight would invest in could compete with Hollywood blockbusters.
"Famous Catchers" is a low-budget martial arts movie at best.
"Sad Fairy Tale" has been experiencing many twists and turns recently. As the lead actor Liu Shishi suffered from pancreatitis, the filming has been delayed for several days.
As for the recent movie "To Our Fading Youth" that we just co-financed with China Film Group, it is purely a low-cost urban love movie.
How can Ray compete with those Hollywood blockbusters?
"It may seem like the wolf is coming, but it is actually a process of survival of the fittest. Those production companies that want to take advantage of troubled waters will definitely be subject to a wave of purges..."
Chen Fei's tone was quite complicated.
In fact, in his opinion, this is not all a bad thing.
Capable film companies will definitely survive, and those messy garbage will definitely be eliminated. Although there will still be some "rotten apples" left behind, it is better than the current mixed bag.
成本3000万、片酬2000万、800万拿来做炒作、再贪污180万、最后拿剩余的20万用来拍电影……
This kind of operation that was once common will definitely be eliminated step by step!
And the most important thing is that this will not affect Chen Fei's personal interests. Anyway, he can make money from both ends and is in an invincible position from the beginning.
After ending the call with Wang Changtian, Han Sanping's call followed.
His tone was quite solemn and he said solemnly: "This time we are going to show our true skills!"
Chen Fei still joked: "What? After adding 14 more movies, we can't continue the operation?"
Since Han Sanping came to power, he has often engaged in the saucy operation of releasing multiple Hollywood blockbusters in the same month, providing domestic films with shelter many times.
But even so, many people in the circle often report him, calling him a foreigner's dog.
And now there are 14 more Hollywood movies imported, which must be an increase in pressure for him!
"It won't work this time." Han Sanping said with a hint of helplessness in her tone: "During the meeting the day before yesterday, the bureau made it clear that we couldn't do this, and there were many people outside looking at us.
This time, even I have no choice but to let the outsiders fight. Whether I can stop them depends on the quality of the movie. "
Hearing this, Chen Fei couldn't help but fell into deep thought.
After a moment, he asked: "How are imported films divided? Waltton Films also has several blockbusters that will be released in theaters this year. How about giving me a share of a few more imported films?"
"no problem."
Han Sanping agreed immediately. He was still able to make the decision in this regard.
But soon, he specifically reminded you: "I have to inform you about something in advance. The bureau has issued an order, asking you commercial film directors to step up and resist the impact of foreign films. .
Therefore, in the next few months, the films produced by Feiyue Film and Television must be at the forefront..."
Chen Fei was not very surprised by this.
In fact, the moment he saw the red-headed document, he was already prepared.
"What's in it for me?" He directly put forward the most essential point.
If you want a horse to run fast, you must at least let it eat well first, so if he wants to benefit from it, he can feel at ease.
"Scheduling films, publicizing resources, reasonable tax deductions..."
They were all our own, and Han Sanping was unequivocal and listed all the benefits he could give.
The more Chen Fei listened, the more dazzling the light in his eyes became.
After hearing the end, he agreed without hesitation: "Then let the storm come more violently!"
Although Chen Fei was also affected to a certain extent, it was not very big overall.
However, there are very few people in the circle who can stand in a "win-win" situation like him, and it can even be said that they do not exist at all.
Therefore, once the document was made public, it was like a "little boy" dropped on the film industry, which directly blew up the entire film industry!
Especially in the film industry, it seems like the blooming of spring has turned to frost in an instant.
Fortunately, large film companies have strong ability to withstand pressure.
But the same cannot be said for those small film companies. The moment they saw the document, some people were even frightened on the spot and could not recover for a long time.
As soon as Chen Fei logged onto the film and television information network, what he saw was all kinds of abuse and complaints all over the Internet.
Although there were a few words of support, they were quickly suppressed by all kinds of curses and complaints.
Unlike the producers, the theaters were already caught in a wave of cheers and celebrations.
For major theaters, whether they are imported or domestically produced, the more blockbusters the better, and they will not lose money anyway.
Like Chen Fei, they are also based on a win-win and undefeated situation.
When Huo Qigang called, his tone was deeply shocked: "Did you already know about this? Is that why you asked me to continue to expand the theater chain?"
"Don't be so surprised. It's just the general trend of the times. I just take a longer-term view."
Today's Pan-Asia Cinemas is already the well-deserved No. 1 among the nine major cinemas in China, and even Wanda will not be able to catch up in a short time.
It coincides with a sharp increase in the number of imported Hollywood blockbusters. When it comes to revenue, the biggest profit must be from Pan-Asian Cinemas!
"So what's next? Continue to expand theaters? Or..."
After recovering from the shock, Huo Qigang's admiration for Chen Fei was as continuous as a torrential river.
He eagerly wanted to know what kind of cool tricks Chen Fei would do next?
"Next..." Chen Fei was silent for a moment, remembering the incident seven years later in his mind, feeling a little scared and worried for no reason.
After a few minutes of silence, he continued: "Next, we can slow down the pace of expansion, start to withdraw funds, and gradually update and iterate technology and equipment.
We must keep the environment and equipment of our theaters at least one level higher than other theaters, and we must overwhelm other theater chains with absolute advantages.
The pace of expansion cannot stop, but one thing you need to remember is that we do not engage in leasing, no matter how low the price opposite is.
Buy land, build your own cinema, build a shopping mall, or even acquire a shopping mall..."
After the half-hour call ended, Chen Fei recalled his previous strategy in his mind.
He couldn't guarantee that it would be foolproof, but as long as he was 80 to 90 percent sure, he could guarantee that he would be invincible.
You don’t need to run any faster or farther than your peers, you just need to always be one step ahead of them.
……
The filming of "Interstellar" has gradually come to an end.
Chen Fei began to comprehensively check the shots he had taken before to make sure there were no problems or flaws in them.
The actors are also cooperating with him to carry out the final finishing work.
The three-month shooting period is not long, but it is so urgent that many people decide to go on vacation after the shooting is over.
The part about Chen Long's cameo ended in only 3 days.
The eldest brother is currently busy preparing for his new movie. He is currently running around and contacting management, which can be regarded as taking some time out of his busy schedule.
After the filming, he didn't even wait to attend the closing party and ran away that night.
"Jackie Chan is really busy. I recently heard that the New York Times magazine was going to select the 'Top 20 Greatest Action Movie Stars in History', and he would definitely be selected."
Anne Hathaway is also one of Jackie Chan's fans, so she naturally pays more attention to her idol's affairs.
"Well deserved!"
Chen Fei gave his own comments.
If Li Xiaolong successfully brought "Kung Fu" to Hollywood, then Chen Long is the one who made "Kung Fu" famous all over the world!
His contribution is so great that it cannot be summarized by any award.
In a daze, Chen Fei suddenly heard Anne Hathaway send him an invitation: "Fei, after the filming is over, I am going to Hawaii for a vacation. Do you want to go with me?"
"No." Chen Fei quickly reacted and refused directly: "I'm sorry, I have other very important things to do."
"Oh, well, that's a shame."
Anne Hathaway shrugged and did not continue to ask, but turned and walked towards the other side.
However, Chen Fei suddenly noticed something. Before leaving, her eyes seemed to stay behind him for a moment?
He turned his head calmly, and then saw Liu Yifei appearing behind him at some point.
"Competition between women... is so scary!"
After secretly sighing in his heart, Chen Fei's expression did not change at all, as if nothing happened just now.
He directly started a new topic: "You're looking for me? What's the matter?" Watching Anne Hathaway disappear at the end of the line of sight, Liu Yifei withdrew her gaze and said softly: "Director Xue Xiaolu led "Love Destiny" The crew of "Seattle" came to visit."
"Oh, so fast?" Chen Fei stood up and walked out, saying, "Let's go out and pick them up."
The two of them walked in unison and walked out together.
However, just as he was about to reach the door of the studio, Liu Yifei's voice suddenly came: "If you want to go to Hawaii, I can go with you."
"Uh-huh!"
Chen Fei suddenly stopped walking and turned his head in surprise.
Liu Yifei did not stop and continued walking towards the outside of the studio.
The sun shone in through the gap and fell on half of her face.
The crystal clear earlobes were dyed rich and bright red at this moment, which was so cute and touching!
……
"Director Xue, welcome you all."
"Director Chen, I won't disturb your shooting, right?"
"Of course not, come in..."
Xue Xiaolu didn't bring many people with him this time. Apart from Yang Mi and Jiao Enjun, the rest were their assistants, managers, bodyguards and the like.
They were all his own, so Chen Fei naturally gave them preferential treatment and a friendly attitude.
"Let me introduce, this is Matthew McConaughey, the leading actor from the cast of "Interstellar", as well as Anne Hathaway, Matt Damon...
You don’t need me to introduce Liu Yifei, right? You should all know each other, but it's a pity that you came a little late. If you had come earlier, you could still see Chen Long..."
After briefly explaining the basic situation in the studio to the group, Chen Fei arranged for them to watch the filming process of a Hollywood movie.
Seeing the huge crew in front of him like a precision instrument running rapidly, Xue Xiaolu's eyes widened unconsciously, and deep shock appeared on his face!
She has a master's degree in literature from Nortel. She officially entered the directing industry the year before last and directed her debut film "Ocean Paradise".
This "Love in Seattle" is her second work, and it is also her first time to shoot in Los Angeles.
Before that, she had also been in many film crews, whether it was literary films or commercial films.
She boasts that she is already familiar with the shooting mode of commercial films, otherwise she would not have been able to shoot "Love in Seattle".
But after watching the shooting mode of "Interstellar" today, she realized that she was completely like a frog in a well!
lMAX3D camera, motion capture equipment, facial expression capture headset, virtual camera, large and sophisticated rolling equipment...
Everything he saw before him made him feel like he was watching a "science fiction movie"!
Perhaps because of the huge gap between directors and actors, just when Xue Xiaolu was amazed at the shooting scene in front of her, Yang Mi standing behind her was staring straight at Liu Yifei who was on the set.
Seeing Liu Yifei skillfully using various shooting equipment and acting confidently and generously in front of the camera with the big-name Hollywood stars, her eyes were filled with envy.
If possible, she would even want to replace him and stand on the set.
Even if you have to pay some price for this, it is not impossible...
Unfortunately, all this is just a dream in her heart.
"Jiajia, the gap between her and me seems to be getting bigger and bigger..."
Zeng Jia listened to this and remained silent.
She didn't know how to reply, but her eyes were always on Chen Fei, so much so that Yang Mi's eyes were also drawn towards her.
The two suddenly looked at each other, their expressions inexplicably becoming extremely complicated.
……
In the evening, after entertaining Xue Xiaolu and others, Chen Fei arranged for someone to take them back to the hotel where the crew of "Love in Seattle" stayed.
After watching the group disappear at the end of the road, he took out a room key card from his pocket.
Glancing at the room number marked on it, without thinking, he casually folded it into several sections and threw it into the trash can of the hotel nearby.
Fan Bingbing, Zhang Jingchu and others tried to lure him into bed many times, but they were still ruthlessly rejected by him, not to mention... Yang Mi.
The rabbit hasn't eaten the grass beside its nest yet. How could he possibly provoke such a woman who looked like trouble at first sight?
After returning to the room and sending a text message to Gal Gadot, who was currently preparing to film "Fast and Furious 6" in North America, he lay on the bed and read the news.
You can't eat the grass around the nest, but you're welcome to eat the grass outside. He doesn't need to take any responsibility anyway.
Both parties are here to solve physiological needs. In addition to pursuing the happiness they want, there will be no unnecessary requirements at all.
I casually opened Weibo, and there was still endless fun and all kinds of "melons" flying all over the sky!
"Yin Xiaotian bullied me too much. He pushed me and grabbed my hair in front of the whole crew..."
"I'm not! I didn't! Don't listen to her words!"
Participants in the "Knife-inserting Cult" incident:
Leader: Du Chun.
The leader’s wife: Bian Xiaoxiao.
The innocent person involved in the stabbing: Yin Xiaotian.
National Protector: Yang Zai.
The four male guardians: Li Chen, Jia Nailiang, Bao Jianfeng, and Huang Jue.
The four female protectors: Xue Jianing, Li Xiaolu, Dong Xuan, and Bai Baihe.
Sword-inserting teaches the congregation: coat of arms, Ma Yili...
Nowadays, the Internet is completely filled with a large group of first- and second-tier stars competing against one of the latter. It is simply a piece of yellow mud that falls off the crotch - whether it is shit or shit!
The latter kept defending, but it was of no use at all. Faced with the encirclement and revelations from many parties, he was beaten back and defeated.
"A Rain of Bullets", male stars act big, are arrogant and unreasonable, beat actresses, bully weak female groups...
All kinds of eye-catching words were placed on the front page of the film and television information network, attracting a lot of people to watch.
Chen Fei took another look at the echoes and responses from major actors and celebrities on Weibo, and was so happy that he couldn't close his mouth for a long time.
Leader Du Chun: "I have obtained concrete evidence and have seen the on-site surveillance video. I feel really ashamed to have a friend like Yin Xiaotian. Please apologize immediately!"
Protector Li Chen: "I have cooperated a lot with the woman involved, Bian Xiaoxiao. I believe in her character. I called her specifically yesterday. I just wanted to say, girl, don't cry, be strong, and I will definitely stand by your side."
Protector Bao Jianfeng: "The director should look to me for future filming. I don't know how to hit people, nor do I want to be a big star or disobey discipline."
Dharma protector Jia Nailiang: "I call on the circle to strictly boycott unscrupulous artists like Yin Xiaotian! My classmate cried so hard on the phone that his heart was broken. Isn't there anyone who will seek justice? Then I will!"
Li Xiaolu: "I don't know the truth, but I believe in my boyfriend's vision and I support him! Kind people have sharp eyes!"
……
Among the many accusations made by artists in the industry who claim to have witnessed it with their own eyes, the incident of "Yin Xiaotian's beating" seems to have been concluded.
Especially after Yang Zai posted a blurry screenshot of the live surveillance video and the woman accepted an interview with the media crying, the man directly became the target of public criticism!
No matter how he and his agency explained, and even said that there was surveillance video at the scene to prove his innocence, no one believed him.
Everyone is only willing to believe their own eyes, and self-proving will not lead to innocence. Instead, they will get more ridicule and contempt...
However, a small number of netizens asked Yang Zai to release the complete video of the scene. Unfortunately, this guy obviously didn't have good intentions, so he just left the scene and responded:
"I have an obligation to break up the fight, but I have no obligation to publish the video. The truth will be determined online..."
Although Yin Xiaotian also had supportive friends, it was obvious that Nie Yuan, Han Hedong, and Yang Zi alone could not stir up any trouble. Instead, they caused trouble for himself.
"Jingle Bell……"
The doorbell rang suddenly, interrupting Chen Fei's continued eating.
The moment he turned over and got out of bed, a flash of light suddenly flashed in his mind, and he frowned slightly.
While walking towards the door, he dialed Huo Wenxi's phone number and said directly to the point: "The Bian Xiaoxiao and Yin Xiaotian incident that has been very popular on the Internet these days does not include any artists from the Feiyinghuang Agency. Participate?"
"No." Huo Wenxi replied without hesitation: "The ones who ended up were all artists from Huayi and had nothing to do with us."
"That's fine, just keep an eye on the artists in the company and stop them from getting involved in this matter."
"it is good."
Huo Wenxi responded and hung up the phone.
After thinking for a moment, she simply sent a message to the company's managers' internal group chat, asking them to strictly control their artists and prohibit them from participating in this incident!
Maybe most people outside the circle are following the trend of public opinion, but as a person in this circle, Huo Wenxi sees it very clearly.
Those who ended up were all Huayi’s artists who were on the second line and were working hard to get closer to the first line.
The one who was surrounded and suppressed was an artist who had nothing to do with Huayi and was an artist under Wang Jinghua's Shiyi Culture Company. The meaning of this was self-evident.
That's what the entertainment industry is like.
One "whale" falls and all "things" are born!
