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

Chapter 659 Seeking cooperation? China Film's attitude changes... Wu Yu's ship has problems again!
When seeing the news that "Breakup Guru" was completed, Chen Fei couldn't help but fall into a brief daze.
From the start of filming to the end, it only took one month at most, and it was already announced as a wrap!
Online, relevant media reports have just come out.
"The comedy film "Breakup Guru", exclusively produced by Enlight Pictures, written, directed and acted by Deng Chao, with Yang Mi as the heroine, has now officially wrapped up after a month of filming!"
"At the closing press conference, Deng Chao said that he would follow up the entire process and strive to meet the audience and fans before May Day next year."
"Yang Mi's schedule was extremely tight. After the filming of "The Breakup Master" was completed, she took the opportunity to join the promotional roadshow for "The Four 2"..."
Chen Fei seemed to have foreseen the scene after the release of "The Breakup Master".
The box office performance has been rising, but the word of mouth has been falling, and it has even been criticized to the point of being ashamed.
The work of a new director was completed in just one month, which was undoubtedly a huge challenge to the quality of the film.
But on second thought, this should meet Yang Mi's requirements.
The progress is fast enough, the money comes quickly, and it is also a big screen work...
Some people in the industry have already called her a "workaholic". Since Jiaxing was established, she has hardly had a single day of rest.
Looking around, she is either filming on a drama set or at an event. She never has a moment to rest.
Yang Mi’s current status is simply that of a worker that the bosses love the most. At least Zeng Jia definitely thinks so.
……
At the press conference of the movie "Storm", Chen Fei officially realized the charm of 3D.
A damn police and gangster movie is actually labeled as 3D, it's so flashy.
The film producer Jiang Zhiqiang even shouted out a slogan in front of the media, saying: "The Storm will be the first 3D police and gangster action movie in China. We strive to present the most amazing scenes in terms of story and picture..."
As a guest invited by Liu Dehua, Chen Fei would naturally not be ignored.
Director Yuan Jinglin walked up to him with a glass of wine in hand and said with a slightly wry smile: "Director Chen, please go easy on me when the time comes!"
"The Storm" is scheduled to be released on the 12th, just one day earlier than "The Taking of Tiger Mountain", which means that there will inevitably be a direct competitive relationship between the two films.
"Director Yuan is joking."
Chen Fei clinked glasses with him and exchanged a few polite words.
At this time, Liu Dehua and Jiang Zhiqiang walked down from the stage and came towards Chen Fei together.
When he saw the two people coming, Yuan Jinglin wisely went somewhere else.
Before Jiang Zhiqiang even came close, he greeted him from afar: "Director Chen, thank you for coming. I'm sorry for not welcoming you in person!"
"Mr. Jiang, how are you?"
Chen Fei raised his glass slightly towards the CEO of Hong Kong Emperor Films Co., Ltd. and smiled in return.
The 60-year-old veteran is very famous in the Hong Kong entertainment industry. He is one of the producers of films such as "Hero", "House of Flying Daggers", "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", "Lust, Caution" and so on, and has very strong production capabilities.
If nothing unexpected happens, this is the person Liu Dehua is going to introduce this time.
After a few pleasantries, the other party directly proposed the idea of cooperating with him if there is a chance in the future: "Enlightenment Pictures has unique conditions in overseas distribution channels. I hope Mr. Chen can consider it..."
"Well, okay, if there is a chance, I will contact Mr. Jiang."
Chen Fei said polite words, but he had no intention of cooperating in his heart.
In Hong Kong, having Ying Huang and Golden Harvest is enough, and he has even gradually cut off ties with Media Asia, not to mention other companies.
Enlight Pictures does have strong financial resources and capabilities in overseas distribution, but Chen Fei has no shortage of these.
He has no shortage of powerful partners; China Film Group, Shanghai Film Group, Wanda Film Group, and Light Media are enough.
Anything or conditions he wants can be provided by the above partners, so there is no need to bring in another one.
Looking at Jiang Zhiqiang's back as he left, Liu Dehua suddenly sighed: "The Hong Kong film and television industry is becoming increasingly difficult."
Chen Fei smiled and said nothing, but he replied in his heart: "The future will only be more difficult!"
Internet companies have already begun to enter the market in large numbers. The mainland has money and resources, so why should it go and beg others for help?
……
After leaving "The Storm", Chen Fei stopped by the Beijing Film Studio to check the filming progress of "Ghost Blows Out the Light 2".
Ning Hao is becoming more and more proficient in making commercial films. The crew is well organized on the set, and the shooting progress is steady and going very smoothly.
"Do you have anything else to do this afternoon? If you have nothing, can we have dinner together in the evening?"
Listening to Ning Hao's words, Fade Chen asked curiously, "Is there something important going on? Or are you just having a meal?"
Ning Hao said casually: "We just happened to meet, let's just go to my house for a meal, I'll ask your sister Na to buy some seafood or something."
"Tomorrow, I'll call Yifei to come tomorrow night." Chen Fei said as he stood up from his stool: "I'm going to go to China Film Group this afternoon. There are two projects that have been quiet. I'll go over to see what's going on."
"Okay, tomorrow then. Remember! Don't stand me up."
After staying on the set of "Ghost Blows Out the Light 2" for less than an hour, Chen Fei slipped away.
After arriving at China Film Studio, he resisted the urge to go straight to La Beikang's office, and instead went to the reception desk first.
Han Sanping has already left, so he won’t be able to continue to act so recklessly at China Film Corporation.
"Hello, is the director here?"
"Director Chen?! Please wait a moment, I'll go ask."
Although the person at the reception desk had changed, he did not put on airs when facing Chen Fei. He immediately put down the work at hand and walked towards Labeikang's office.
After a while, Fade Chen successfully entered the chairman's office.
While Chen Fei and his assistant were there, La Peikang specifically reminded them, "Next time Director Chen comes, you don't have to notify me specifically. As long as there are no outsiders in my office, just bring him in directly."
"Okay, La Dong."
The assistant responded and quickly left the office.
Chen Fei took the opportunity to look around this familiar yet unfamiliar office, and inexplicably felt that things and people had changed.
When Han Sanping was here, this place looked much cleaner and tidier. But after it was replaced by Labeikang, there were suddenly two more bookshelves here, giving people a very elegant feeling.
"Come, sit down."
La Beikang did not put on airs, but enthusiastically led Chen Fei to the sofa and even poured him a glass of water himself.
From the moment I entered the door until now, both the inside and the outside have been well-appointed.
"What brings you here today?" La Peikang smiled kindly and looked at Chen Fei with a hint of curiosity.
Chen Fei didn't like to play dumb, so he just said, "Boss La, I came here mainly to ask about Pacific Rim 2 and Beijing Meets Seattle: The Unbreakable Love Letter.
The company said they had sent the script, but I haven’t received any feedback yet. Is there a problem? "
"Oh! You mean those two projects?"
La Peikang showed an expression of sudden enlightenment on his face: "I have received the project. The company has specially held two seminars for this purpose and has confirmed that there are no problems.
It’s just that it’s almost the end of the year, and I’ve just handed over my job, so I have a lot of trivial things piled up that I can’t deal with for the time being.
China Film Studio actually attaches great importance to those two projects. I thought that I would follow up personally after I have arranged all the work on hand..."
Follow up in person?
Upon hearing these four words, Fade Chen's heart suddenly moved.
He tentatively agreed, "That's good. As long as there's no problem with the project itself, I'll let Lucasfilm know and we'll officially launch the project in the spring of next year. How do you think?"
"Okay, then let's do it next year! Haha, I will follow up personally then to make sure there are no problems." La Beikang made the decision right away.
The two then had a series of discussions about the two upcoming films, "The Taking of Tiger Mountain" and "The Martian."
Chen Fei could clearly sense that La Peikang was more interested in "The Martian".
"Science fiction movies are great! Big-budget movies not only bring in high box office, but are also very beneficial to the development of theaters and related industries..."
After chatting for a whole afternoon, both sides had a deep understanding of each other and had a very pleasant conversation.
Before leaving, La Peikang specially sent Chen Fei to the door of the office, and warmly invited him to visit China Film Group more often if he had time in the future.
Chen Fei did not reject the new chairman of China Film Group, who was extremely fond of "science fiction films".
Building a good relationship with him will also be beneficial to the future development of Feiyue Film and Television.
Science fiction films are destined to be one of the company's important projects in the future. This is also a way to demonstrate the strength of a large company and must be taken seriously.
……
The next day, Chen Fei suddenly saw a piece of news on his way to the company.
The filming of "The Crossing" was suspended again, and the actors and actresses of the crew took a long vacation. Wu Yu even flew from Hong Kong to China Film Studio and did not come out for the entire morning.
"This Wu Yu is getting more and more outrageous. The investment budget of 4 million is not enough for him to spend, and he has seriously overspent again..."
Han Sanping came to Feiyue Film and Television early in the morning and started complaining to Chen Fei as soon as she saw him.
"You've already retired, why are you still concerned about this?"
Chen Fei smiled and joked that Wu Yu was already a "repeat offender". He had caused trouble twice during the filming of "Red Cliff". It was normal for such a situation to occur during the filming of "The Crossing".
"You don't have to worry about it, but what he did is just a slap in my face!"
Han Sanping was very angry. After all, this was a project he had planned before retirement. Now that such a thing had happened, he felt ashamed.
Chen Fei advised: "It has already happened. It's useless for you to be angry now. You should just let it go."
He didn't let Han Sanping continue to sulk, but instead extended the topic to "The Hundred Regiments Offensive".
The Third Master quickly put Wu Yu, the scumbag, behind his mind and said excitedly, "I plan to start filming after the New Year. The crew is almost ready now, and several main actors have been found. When the time comes, remember to come and play a cameo role for me, so that I can also take advantage of your popularity..."
"OK, no problem."
Chen Fei agreed immediately.
The filming of "The Hundred Regiments Offensive" was not easy. With so many people needing to be coordinated, the shooting period of this film was destined to be very long.
Although he will be very busy next year, he should have time to make a guest appearance.
……
从10月17到11月7号,整整20天时间,《特殊身份》总计拿到了1.46亿的票房成绩,然后正式迎来了下画时刻。
The cinema chain directly forced the film to be taken down, and Starry Night had no objection to this.
The daily new box office has already dropped to 23. If the film is not taken down, wouldn't it just be a complete disgrace to the company?
The industry has dubbed Zhen Zixuan the "box office poison", but he himself does not admit it. Instead, he has been engaged in a constant exchange of insults with the media and even went to court, claiming that the other party has violated his reputation and portrait rights.
The crew of "Journey to the West: Havoc in Heaven" chose to unconditionally support Zhen Zixuan in defending his rights.
Regardless of whether they are willing or not, the incident has already been exposed. If the leading actors of their own movie do not defend it, wouldn't that be tantamount to implicitly admitting that their movie is a bad one?
……
In his spare time, Chen Fei made a special trip to Longxiang Aerospace Technology Company.
With the successful application for registration of the company, the construction of the research institute has been half completed. In addition to some construction workers, there are also many researchers debugging the research equipment bought from abroad at high prices.
The director of the institute is Bu Qingxiang, who previously worked at NASA and also lost that high-paying job due to an FBI loyalty investigation.
However, as the old saying goes, when you are surrounded by mountains and rivers and think there is no way out, you will find a new village when you turn around.
After leaving NASA and encountering many setbacks, he was lucky to meet Chen Fei, and was then successfully rehired in China.
After being away from his hometown for so many years, there was actually nothing left for him to miss in North America. After securing a job and related salary, he returned home with his family and settled down in the capital.
"Mr. Chen, come to think of it, we actually met once before."
Bu Qingxiang's sudden words immediately made Chen Fei curious. He subconsciously asked, "Why don't I remember where I've seen you?"
"Do you remember that space skydiving challenge you completed before?"
"I remember." Chen Fei's mind moved: "That space capsule..."
Bu Qingxiang nodded and said with a smile: "Yes, the space capsule you were riding in was made by my team members under my leadership."
"Haha, I didn't expect that there is such a connection between us."
Back then, Chen Fei didn't quite trust what NASA made, so he specifically asked Florian to find a private aerospace research institute to check the quality of the space capsule and the integrity of its various functions inside and out.
Only at the end, when he was sure there were no problems, did he enter the space capsule with confidence and complete the world-renowned space skydiving challenge.
I never expected that this space capsule was made by a team led by Bu Qingxiang!
"Please pay more attention to the research institute. If you need anything, you can contact me or Zhou Shouzi. Once the infrastructure and equipment are completed, I will arrange the corresponding project research catalog for you."
"Okay." Bu Qingxiang responded first, and then asked tentatively: "Before joining the company, I heard that our future research direction is about aerospace and satellites. I wonder what our expected goals are?"
Chen Fei pondered for a moment and replied: "Manned space flight, landing on the moon, building a satellite network that is better than Starlink, and even working hard to restore the scenes in science fiction!"
……
Here, Chen Fei had just left the Longxiang Aerospace Science and Technology Research Institute which was under construction, and suddenly saw several new hot searches popping up on the Internet.
"Tiny Times 3: The Last Tycoon, directed by new Chinese commercial film director Guo Jingming, has officially started filming. All the original cast members including Yang Mi, Amber Kuo, Ke Zhendong, Chen Xuedong, and Guo Biting have officially returned, without a single person absent."
"It is reported that Tiny Times 3: The Last Airbender and Tiny Times 4: The End of the Soul will still adopt the same shooting mode, and both films will be completed in one cycle."
"Director Guo Jingming said that the two films will be released next year and the year after respectively. In addition, he also said that after the "Tiny Times" series is finished, he will bring a bigger surprise to fans!"
Guo Xiaosi obviously bought the hot searches, and many media are reporting news related to him, and all from a positive perspective.
However, netizens were not so friendly, and the comment section under the relevant reports was filled with boos and curses.
Some people even went to the Film Bureau to report that "Tiny Times" destroyed people's worldviews and spread bad morals, and suggested that the film be banned.
For a while, the Internet was in chaos again.
At the same time, Chen Fei also noticed a very "interesting" situation.
In the third and fourth parts of Tiny Times, in addition to the previous investors, LeTV and Alibaba also appeared!
It is obvious that these two companies are also ready to get a piece of the pie.
……
In the evening, at Ning Hao's invitation, Chen Fei and Liu Yifei appeared at his house together.
Xing Aina is a pretty good cook and the dishes she cooked were all very tasty and beautiful.
Liu Yifei, a girl who has never done housework, actually came to Xing Aina's side tonight, and learned cooking skills from her meticulously. She even fried a plate of scrambled eggs with tomatoes herself.
Facing those expectant eyes, Chen Fei really couldn't bear to say the three words "not delicious", so he could only give a reluctant evaluation:
"Not bad, very delicious, very tasty. You are born to be a chef. It is so rare that you can make such a delicious dish in your first time cooking."
The more Miss Liu listened, the happier she became, and her heart was filled with joy.
"Since you think it's so delicious, how about I make it for you every day in the future?"
Chen Fei: "(Д)! (_)!"
