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

Chapter 537 "The Return of the Great Sage" and "The Hunger Games 2" are both online, and the two are completely different!

Outside the Dolby (formerly Kodak) Theater, a brand new red carpet had already been laid out.

In addition to the media holding cameras on both sides of the red carpet, there were also many fans waving flags and shouting, either supporting the movie, supporting the actors, or just joining in the fun...

When Chen Fei walked onto the red carpet, he immediately saw the group of die-hard fans wearing Red Bull logo jackets.

Without any hesitation, he walked straight towards that direction, and then took out a can of Red Bull from his arms like a magic trick.

Pull it open and drink it all!

There was a burst of enthusiastic cheers at the scene, and the fans burst into extremely crazy shouts!

"Fei, L love you're..."

After the interaction, Chen Fei walked into the Dolby Theater.

As a movie heroine, the eldest cousin can be regarded as the most dazzling one in this event. At this time, many people gathered around her and chatted.

In just over a month, I lost a total of 46 pounds!
It’s unbelievable just to think about it, let alone to do it in person.

The filming budget for this film is very abundant, and including subsequent public relations expenses, the expected investment will not be less than US$7000 million.

Matthew McConaughey nodded slightly: "The doctor said it's not serious. He just needs to rest for a while to recover."

Since returning to China in April, Chen Fei has never seen Matthew McConaughey again.

He had taken off the sunglasses that usually rested on the bridge of his nose, but there were a pair of bright eyes on his old cheeks, staring unblinkingly at the man in front of him.

The feeling of approval in Chen Fei's heart became stronger and he asked with concern: "Have you gone to see a doctor?"

And now, in order to star in "Dallas Buyers Club", he even lost 46 pounds in one and a half months.

This is a truly competent actor!
With this alone, he is qualified to compete for the Best Actor Oscar!
However, at this moment, Matt Damon on the side suddenly said: "Matthew really paid a lot for this role. He lost weight too quickly and even caused adverse symptoms in his eyesight."

He discovered from the time he was filming "Interstellar" that Matthew takes his role far more seriously than other actors.

Michael Bay also came to the premiere today. When he sat down, he turned to look at Chen Fei and said, "I have already watched a screening before, and it was great!"

For a literary feature film, such an investment is obviously very exaggerated!

From the moment he walked on the red carpet, he has already received a lot of surprises!
Both fans and insiders couldn't help but exclaimed when they learned that he had transformed from a healthy middle-aged man into a skinny, terminally ill image in just over a month:

The time soon came to 11 o'clock in the morning, and the premiere viewing officially started.

At this moment, no matter how calm Chen Fei was, he couldn't help but let out an exclamation.

Today is his first public appearance after losing weight.

But Chen Fei doesn't mind. As long as he can win a prize, he won't lose money even if he invests 100 million US dollars.

And when Chen Fei got closer, he realized that the person who was paying attention to the three people was none other than Matthew McConaughey!

"You're the best!"

"This is so cool!"

By mid-May, he had already informed Chen Fei via email, saying that he had made all the preparations before filming.

Chen Fei did not hesitate to praise him and gave him a thumbs up.

Chen Fei was immediately impressed!

However, the two still occasionally exchanged some ideas for the "Dallas Buyers Club" script by texting or emailing.

The famous disaster film director Roland Emmerich echoed on the other side: "I also participated in a screening event in New York. According to my personal opinion, it is even better than the first step."

"Matthew? How much weight have you lost?"

At the same time, Matthew will report to Chen Fei on his preparation progress from time to time.

However, after Chen Fei entered the stage, his eyes were immediately attracted to Leonardo and Matt Damon.

When faced with Chen Fei's question, Matthew McConaughey subconsciously pushed up the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose and responded in a very calm tone: "About 50 pounds."

"Okay."

Chen Fei said politely: "Thank you for your support and praise."

As he spoke, he also specifically added: "Fei, don't worry, I won't affect the shooting. Give me two more days and I can definitely adjust my condition."

Chen Fei nodded slightly and responded.

……

But it doesn’t matter if it’s delayed for a few days.

"Ouch?!"

Although the film has only officially premiered today, the media, audiences, film critics and theater managers have held three consecutive test screenings, and the film's reputation in all aspects has already been lifted.

On Rotten Tomatoes, the freshness is as high as 95%, the MTC average score is 80 points, and the IMDB audience score is temporarily 8.7.

The two people were looking carefully around a middle-aged man wearing sunglasses. It could be clearly seen that their faces were not only shocked, but also shocked!
In a seat next to the three people, Jack Nicholson also looked amazed.

According to the plan, the movie's production time will be officially launched on June 6.

This shows the strong confidence of the film's producer, Waltons Pictures, in the sequel!

50 pounds is approximately equivalent to 23 kilograms, or 46 kilograms.

Judging from all data, the box office performance of this sequel will definitely not be too bad!

The screening officially begins.

The story of the second part roughly tells the story of Katniss Everdeen, the winner of the 74th Hunger Games, who became the trigger for the people's revolt. In order to get rid of this serious problem, Panem President Snow decided to recall her in the next game. Previous champions competed, and Katniss, who was forced to enter the Hunger Games again, could only give it a try...

The long and stinky foreshadowing, like an old lady's foot-binding cloth, was constantly compressed, compressed, and compressed again, and more scenes were occupied by intense action scenes and duel scenes.

In the second part, the grown-up Katniss's strength has been fully improved, and her wisdom has also been enhanced compared to the first part.

All the enemies and crises that stood in front of her were resolved one by one by her wisdom and strength.

The film easily aroused the emotions of the audience, allowing them to accompany the protagonist in the "Hunger Games" arena to find a chance to survive.

At the end of the film, Katniss wrapped the originally arranged wire around the bow and arrow, and when lightning struck, she shot an arrow into the closed dome.

As a result, lightning destroyed the dome of the Hunger Games arena, causing the game to be interrupted.

The rebels who had planned everything took the opportunity to rescue her, freeing her from the predicament and officially regaining her freedom!
At the end of the film, Peeta Mellark, who had gone through a journey of life and death with her, failed to escape because of a single step difference. This also paved the way for the third sequel.

At the end of the premiere, the audience burst into warm applause again.

James Wan led the creative team on stage, thanked the guests who attended, and then invited everyone to have a meal in the banquet hall.

……

The remaining two days of May flew by.

On June 1st, "Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage" was officially released in mainland theaters.

In North America, "The Hunger Games 2" was also released on a large scale with 4163 theaters. Its popularity has officially ignited the North American summer vacation. !
However, just when Chen Fei was checking all the props and equipment before the launch of "Dallas Buyers Club", a "big melon" appeared in China.

Zhang Weiping, who had not been seen for a long time, suddenly jumped out at the beginning of June and publicly reprimanded Zhang Yimou.

He claimed that Zhang Yimou's studio was a completely illegal company, and also accused the other party of abducting New Picture's contracted artists.

According to his description, "girls" and "boys" such as Dou Xiao, Ni Na, Zhou Dongyu, etc. all refused to obey the company's arrangements under Zhang Yimou's coaxing.

Finally, he even used some extremely disgusting metaphors.

Such as "I am the mother of these children", "Zhang Yimou is just a midwife at most", "He is trying to take away my flesh and blood"...

Many very uncomfortable metaphors are flooded on major film and television information network platforms, which is really dizzying.

This is also the first time that Zhang and Zhang have completely broken up on the Internet since rumors of their breakup spread!

"Zhang Weiping declared that he would ban these people, but no one chose to listen to him. They all took the role in private." Ning Hao is also an old "gua" citizen, and he knows the inside story very well.

"You should have seen that Ni, right? Her methods are much better than others. She got into Huayi's relationship and got together with Feng Shaofeng.

Until now, all her brokerage business has been handled by Feng Shaofeng's agent.

That Liang Yan is no ordinary agent. She has both strength and resources. She is also responsible for Ni Ni's lawsuit. "

Chen Fei shook his head, suddenly feeling that the chaos in this circle was more complicated than he imagined.

"Zhang Weiping is completely screwed this time."

It is no exaggeration to describe his experience with the phrase "a tiger falls flat but is bullied by a dog".

You know, when the two Zhangs collaborated, New Picture was the top production company in the industry, and Zhang Weiping was also the top producer in the industry.

But now, after leaving Lao Mouzi, New Picture has never recovered, and it can't even launch its film and television investment plan.

Many film and television agencies, led by Huayi and Bona, began to cling to the new picture.

It’s true that “when a whale falls, all things come to life!”

"That's right." Ning Hao suddenly seemed to remember something and reminded: "The contract of that murderous girl Zhou Dongyu is about to expire. I heard that many companies in the industry are contacting her. Why is there no movement from Feiying Emperor? ?”

"I don't like this person."

Chen Fei bluntly said that he had a very bad impression of Zhou Dongyu.

A capable person is proud of his talent.

But it's just a shame for someone who has no ability to put on airs.

"Oh, that's how it is."

Ning Hao did not continue to ask further questions and directly changed the topic:

"The box office of "Xiu Chun Dao 2" is quite good, 5.45 million yuan, which is a full 3.76 million yuan more than the first film. It can be regarded as the best-performing movie in the martial arts genre."

"Indeed, Lu Yang is quite talented in martial arts action films."

The crew of "One Man's Martial Arts" would send Chen Fei some on-site shooting clips from time to time, and the producer he sent repeatedly praised Lu Yang's high shooting level and coordination skills.

This kid has been trained and can be entrusted with important responsibilities.

……

……

Time quickly came to the 2nd, and Chen Fei first received the first-day North American box office results of "The Hunger Games 2".

8645 million US dollars, successfully surpassing "Men in Black 3" which was just released last week, as well as "Snow White: Mirror Mirror" and "Snow White and the Huntsman" released at the same time, and topped the single-day North American box office rankings. 1!

Not only did the box office explode on the first day, but the audience's reputation also exploded.

From IMDB to movie forums, from Twitter to Facebook, you can see the positive reviews and praises left by movie fans everywhere.

"Personally, I think it's better than the first one. The film always has a feeling of being unable to resist, but it keeps fighting, and in the end it's dark and the flowers are bright. I like it very much."

"It's very beautiful! The clip where Katniss uses lightning to break the curtain in the sky is so cool. The design of the action scenes has a Chinese Kung Fu feel, and you can even vaguely see the shadow of Jackie Chen."

"I'm really looking forward to the third part. I hope those exciting outdoor fighting scenes can continue. I especially like the heroine's killing spree. I hope she can break the rule and successfully gain true freedom!"

With the support of overwhelming word-of-mouth reviews from the audience, the movie's box office trend has been rising. On June 6, it continued to hold the top spot on the box office list with a single-day box office result of US$2 million.

After three days of its first weekend, "The Hunger Games 2" continues to dominate the box office with $2.53 million.

"Snow White and the Mirror" and "Snow White and the Huntsman" released at the same time received US$1812 million and US$5621 million respectively.

The former completely overwhelms the latter two.

And "Men in Black 3", which has been released for nearly two weeks, is completely inadequate.

There is no doubt that the second sequel to "The Hunger Games" is once again a huge success!
After Chen Fei breathed a sigh of relief, he turned his attention directly to the country.

At this time, the three-day box office results of "Journey to the West: The Return of the Monkey King" during its first weekend are also freshly released.

The total number of pre-sales + on-site tickets on the first day was RMB 1.4 million, the second day was RMB 1.07 million, and the third day was RMB 9137 million...

The total for the first three days of the weekend was 3.38 million yuan!

At the same time, "Hugo", "Come for You", "Snow White and Mirror Mirror", "The Pirates", "37", "Get Out", "Love Island", "Drunk" "The Night After", "Submarine 2" and other movies, all of them were tortured very miserably!

In this box office battle from June 6st to 1rd, "Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage" successfully fought its way out!
Looking around, domestic social software such as Douban, Maoyan, Weibo, Tieba, etc. are all full of praise and praise!
"Passers in, fans out! At the show I was at, almost everyone was reluctant to leave after the movie. Everyone was willing to listen to the ending song, and even said they couldn't get enough or exclaimed, "This is really Is it a domestic cartoon? "

"This is the first time I want to boost the box office for a "domestic cartoon". This is a Hollywood-style heroic fairy tale belonging to China. It makes people laugh and cry. The exquisite pictures have begun to move closer to international standards!"

"The integration of traditional elements and the interest of the character settings are not perfect, but the flaws are not concealed. We have finally ushered in the "Spring of Chinese Comics." This is the only domestic movie that I am willing to go to the theater to watch twice. "

"Just to support those who are truly determined to contribute to Chinese animation art and traditional Chinese culture, "Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage", I just want to say: I finally waited for you, but fortunately we didn't give up."

"In this world, in addition to Transformers, Spider-Man, and Iron Man, there is an even more awesome hero called Sun Wukong!"

In the past two days, Chen Fei received too many calls from China.

There are CEOs of major production companies who want to invest in the second part of "Journey to the West: The Return of the Monkey King", there are also praises from the film bureau, and many animation practitioners have volunteered...

No one thought that Feiyue Film and Television’s first domestic animation film would achieve such excellent box office results!
Just when everyone thought that "Xiu Chun Dao 2" was already the leading domestic film in the first half of 2012, a domestic animation suddenly emerged and broke through the siege!

This is so inspiring!
"Based on the current box office trend, it is estimated that breaking 10 billion will not be a problem."

Han Sanping called, her tone full of resentment.

He remembered the time when this animated film was just being prepared. When he heard that the investment was only 3000 million, he actually chose to ignore it!
But now it's good, the box office will explode!

In just three days, as a producer + producer, Feiyue Film and Television made at least a profit of more than 100 million!

If the box office successfully exceeds 10 billion, Feiyue Film and Television's revenue will have exceeded China Film's achievements in the first half of the year just from this movie.

Thinking of this, Han Sanping felt regretful and almost turned green.

"What's your next plan, continue to launch the sequel to "The Return of the Great Sage"? Or..."

"We are not planning to launch a sequel for the time being. It may involve new themes and stories."

Chen Fei thought of the movie "Big Fish and Begonia" that was rewarded by the system. He had already given the script to Yang Yu. If nothing else happened, it would be sent for review in a few days.

"You must remember to bring China Film with you this time!"

"Hey?" Chen Fei suddenly became happy and joked: "Don't you look down on this kind of small production with an investment of only tens of millions?"

"It's worth it. It's worth it now..."

Han Sanping has already shown off her old face.

The investment was only tens of millions, but the box office revenue could be expected to exceed one billion. If he missed this opportunity, he would not be able to forgive himself!
But at this time, Chen Fei's eyes turned slightly, and he suddenly thought of another script in the script library: "Investment is okay, but I have a condition."

"You say it."

"I'd like to ask you to play a role."

"What role? A guest appearance? That's no problem, you can call anytime..." Han Sanping agreed without even thinking about it.

Chen Fei grinned, with a malicious expression on his face: "Then it's settled! I will contact you when the time comes. The character is not complicated, just play your true self."

"No problem." Han Sanping agreed happily.

After hanging up the phone, there was a burst of laughter in the studio.

"Mountain Eagle... Hehe..."

At this moment, Chen Fei seemed to have thought of the scene where Han Sanping looked depressed after getting the script. It must be very fun!
