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

Chapter 721: The new generation of female stars is gradually gaining momentum, and they are quiet after taking the elevator

Although Chen Fei tried his best to keep a low profile, he was still blocked by reporters when he landed at the Capital Airport.

"It seems that this VIP channel is not that reliable."

After muttering something under his breath, he had no choice but to answer a few questions asked by reporters on the scene, and only then was he able to get away.

Before he even got home, the news had already come out online.

"Director Chen Fei returned to the capital and said he has no other film plans for the time being."

"Good news: According to director Chen Fei, the finished film of Avengers 2 is expected to meet audiences and fans next year."

"When asked about the self-destructive image of international superstar Leonardo DiCaprio, director Chen Fei said that this was purely the subjective consciousness of the actor and had nothing to do with him."

……

It would have been fine if I hadn’t returned to China, but as soon as I returned, the phone calls started to ring non-stop.

Chen Fei had just returned home and was preparing to adjust to the jet lag when Wang Changtian called him urgently.

"Did you also receive a phone call invitation?"

As soon as Wang Changtian opened his mouth, Chen Fei knew that he must know something about the inside story.

"How? Tell me?"

"Things are changing!" Wang Changtian said with emotion: "As far as I know, this commotion is even bigger than the previous Jianwang Operation to combat piracy!
All associations related to the film and television industry, well-known directors, actors, and film and television agencies must all be severely disciplined!"

Chen Fei listened to this and agreed with it.

It is indeed time to rectify this!

From the past...after these people made mistakes, there would always be a lot of people jumping out to speak for them and beg for forgiveness from fans and the society.

Anyway, it all means the same thing: if you make a mistake you can be punished, but after you are punished you cannot be held accountable, and you still have to continue to enter this circle to make money.

Although many netizens do not agree with this, they cannot resist the fans and internet trolls who are trying to whitewash them!
In the end, there really were a lot of remarks like "lay down the butcher knife and turn back."

Chen Fei sneered. If everything can be forgiven, then what is the point of laws and regulations? Wouldn't they just be decorations?
The two did not have an in-depth conversation about this topic. After all, each of them had their own ideas, so they just talked briefly about it.

Chen Fei quickly brought up another topic: "I saw on the news that the female lead for the Guangguang film 'Left Ear' has been decided?"

"That's right." Wang Changtian responded, "The heroine is an amateur named Chen Duling, a very smart girl who has already signed with my company."

"Oh?" Chen Fei was quite surprised: "You want to praise me?"

"Yeah." Wang Changtian did not hide it: "Guangguang doesn't have many famous artists. It's not easy to find a suitable one, so naturally I have to try to promote him. I found Ou Hao and Yang Yang, and I'm going to try to promote them."

"Haha, then I wish Director Wang good luck."

Wang Changtian didn't hang up the phone in a hurry. After all, it was not easy to find someone with whom he could chat freely.

After chatting for a few more sentences, he changed the topic and started complaining about Guan Hu.

"This guy is really interesting. A few days ago, he was chasing me to get investment. I asked him for the script, and he said he would show it to me in a couple of days.

But two days later, he turned around and went to Huayi, saying that I didn't trust him. I hadn't even read the script, so how could I trust him? "

Chen Fei said bluntly: "It's obvious that he approached several companies, and the script was intercepted by Huayi."

"Those two brothers are getting more and more disgusting!"

Wang Changtian would only complain a few words in front of Chen Fei. Normally, his attitude was still very "kind", and he even looked like a good guy.

However, how many people who work in the media are “good people”?

……

After adjusting to the time difference, Chen Fei went to the company the next morning.

However, what surprised him was that today, a large number of reporters and media gathered outside the company, and even a lot of fans showed up!
After walking up the stairs from the underground garage, Chen Fei immediately saw Jiang Xueruo who was hurriedly arranging something.

"Mr. Chen!" Seeing Chen Fei coming, Jiang Xuerou hurriedly greeted him.

"What are you doing? Why are there so many reporters downstairs?"

"Oh! There are a few auditions today."

Audition event?

Fade Chen was slightly stunned, but he quickly reacted: "Audition for those three new TV series?"

"Yes." Jiang Xue replied, "There are still some more important roles that have not been decided."

Due to the huge hit of the two dramas "Day and Night" and "The Journey of Flower", the TV drama projects invested by Feiyue Film and Television have directly become the focus of media and market pursuit.

A good TV series has a huge added value for the actors!

Coupled with Feiyue Films' characteristic of only producing high-quality products, the TV series produced by the company have become the target of many stars and actors in the industry.

The more people pay attention to it, the more media attention will naturally be focused on it.

"Okay, get busy."

Chen Fei had no intention of joining in the fun. They were just a few TV drama projects and were not worth his special attention.

Besides, the final cast list will still belong to him anyway, and without his approval, the show will definitely not start filming.

After saying goodbye to Jiang Xueruo, Chen Fei went straight to Su Guohai's office.

Before returning, the two had a phone call. Su Guohai said that the company had welcomed a large investment project, but he could not control it and did not know whether he should participate in the investment.

Chen Fei was quite curious. This was the first time that Su Guohai said that he didn't understand a certain film project.

He can even handle projects like "The Martian" and "The Taking of Tiger Mountain", but it is very strange that he can't handle a project that claims to be a costume fantasy.

"This is a project book sent by Jiang Zhiqiang of Hong Kong's Edko Films. The main part of the film has been completed, but the post-production special effects have not yet started. I guess they are out of money, so they wanted us to participate. This is a story that combines "Classic of Mountains and Seas" and "Liao Zhai"..."

Listening to Su Guohai's introduction, Chen Fei's eyes fell on the three big words "Monster Hunt" on the first page of the project book.

After thinking for a moment, he asked, "How is Anle going to cooperate with us?"

Su Guohai replied: "They hope that Dianjing Digital can do the special effects and post-production for this film for free, and the relevant fees will be counted as investment shares, and the profits will be divided after the box office is settled."

However, when Chen Fei was thinking about the feasibility of this mode of cooperation, he suddenly saw the column about the leading team in the project book.

Bai Baihe, Ke Zhendong, "Weibo Queen" Yao Chen...

"What kind of shitty cast is this?"

Fade Chen casually threw the project book on the table and said bluntly: "Tell them that if they want to do special effects, they have to pay with real money. We will not participate in the investment of this "Monster Hunt" movie."

"Okay, I'll contact Anle right away."

Su Guohai didn't say much. Since Chen Fei had already decided not to cooperate, he could just refuse directly.

Feiyue Films has never been short of projects, so there is no need to gamble.

……

After leaving Su Guohai's office, Chen Fei did not stay in the company for long. He turned around and walked towards the elevator.

Zhou Xingchi is currently in the capital casting for the "Mermaid" project, and since he has nothing to do, he decided to take a stroll around the set.

After all, he has invested more than 100 million yuan, and it doesn't seem good to just ignore it.

"Ding!"

As the prompt sounded, the elevator door slowly opened.

Just as Chen Fei was about to step inside, he saw a man walking out stupidly. If he hadn't dodged quickly, he would have almost bumped into him.

"Yang Zi?"

Looking at the familiar face, Fade Chen raised his eyebrows, a little surprised.

What's wrong with this person? Why did he break into the office area?
"Chen... Director Chen!?"

Looking at the person standing in front of him, Yang Zi was stunned on the spot.

She just came here for an audition, but she didn't expect to see the great god Chen Fei!

This... this is simply too lucky!
"Why are you in the office area? What's going on?"

"Ah? Is this the office area?" Yang Zi looked around in a daze. When he saw that the floor display showed that he was already on the 20th floor, his face suddenly changed.

"Sorry, Director Chen, I...I want to go to the 17th floor."

"Hey?" Chen Fei was immediately amused by her: "You are quite confused."

As he said that, he entered the elevator and pressed number 17.

Yang Zi's face was red before, and he huddled there like a quail, and from time to time he would steal a glance at Chen Fei, feeling a little excited, but also a little scared.

"Which role are you auditioning for?"

"Ah?! I...I'm going to the crew of Ode to Joy."

"I asked you which role you were going to audition for?"

"I want to play Qu Xiaoxiao."

"Oh, good luck then, the elevator is here, you can get off now."

"Thank...thank you Director Chen."

After reacting belatedly, Yang Zi ran out of the elevator at almost the speed of a 100-meter sprint, quickly avoiding Chen Fei's sight.

After her pounding heartbeat calmed down a little, she couldn't help but slap herself in the face.

"Yang Zi! What were you doing just now? Aren't you usually quite cheerful and lively? Why did you become so quiet after getting on the elevator?"

When she thought of the conversation she had just had with Fade Chen, she felt so embarrassed that she almost tapped her toes on the ground.

In just a few minutes, she seemed to have carved out a three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment!
……

In the elevator, Fade Chen was quite emotional.

Back then, when Yang Zi and Zhang Yishan entered Beijing Film Academy, the media gave them a lot of space and reported on them.

In a blink of an eye, four years have passed and the 2010 class of the Performance Department of Beijing Film Academy has graduated. Time flies so fast!
More than an hour later, Chen Fei successfully arrived at the audition location for "The Mermaid".

As expected, the number of reporters blocking the door was no less than that downstairs of Feiyue Film and Television!
In order to get in smoothly, Chen Fei had to contact Zhou Xingchi.

Soon, a staff member appeared at the door.

Chen Fei was fully armed and walked into the door at lightning speed before the reporters could react.

"Who was that just now? How did he get in?"

"Are you an actor here for an audition? Why are you wrapped up so tightly?"

"Fuck, you scared me, and then it was gone in a flash. Do you have to be so fierce?"

There was constant discussion outside the venue, and no one noticed that the person who just entered was actually Fade Chen!

In the audition area before, Zhang Yuqi looked at the various tight leather jackets, stockings, and even some sexy clothes placed in front of her, and felt deeply moved.

She never thought that after terminating her contract with Star Shine, she would have the opportunity to return and act in Stephen Chow's movie!
Although the audition was only for the second female lead, this is Stephen Chow's movie. Even if it is only the second female lead, it is an opportunity that many people in the industry would love to have.

After realizing this, Zhang Yuqi started changing her clothes without any hesitation.

She knew very well how to show off her strengths, so she didn't hesitate at all and pushed her tight leather jacket as far as possible to the middle...

A few minutes later, she appeared in the audition area wearing a tight leather jacket, seductive shiny black stockings, and a pair of red-soled high heels, twisting her body in a sexy manner.

However, when she walked into the audition area and saw all the judges present, her originally excited heart began to beat uncontrollably.

She never expected that in addition to Zhou Xingchi, there was also the country's top director Chen Fei here!

Although she is the wife of Golden Bear director Wang Quanan, unfortunately, Zhang Yuqi is unable to obtain enough high-quality resources from her husband.

This is also the reason why she ran over happily as soon as Zhou Xingchi contacted her.

She had carefully studied the role of "Ruolan", which was very suitable for her current image. The rabbit was big enough, the figure was good enough, and the femininity was full...

In fact, she also had fantasies about the leading female role, but she knew very well that most of Zhou Xingchi's heroines were of the "pure" type.

But now she is no longer pure, and the only option she can take is sexy.

"Director Zhou, how is it? Is this set okay?"

Zhang Yuqi forced herself to control herself and focus her attention on Zhou Xingchi.

Although she was very surprised by Chen Fei's appearance, she knew very well who was the one who had the final say now.

"Yeah, not bad." Zhou Xingchi nodded, and added: "When you go back later, get a complete script and think carefully about the role of Ruolan. You are very suitable for this role."

Hearing this, Zhang Yuqi suddenly became excited!
got it!
She never expected that she would actually get the second female lead role in "The Mermaid"!
And the most important thing is that she became the first actress who was able to come back and star in Zhou Xingchi's works after having a lawsuit with him!
The significance of this is even greater than her getting the role of "Ruolan"!

Outside the venue, Fade Chen quietly watched the conversation between Zhou Xingchi and Zhang Yuqi and found it quite strange.

Can a broken mirror be mended?

If this news gets out, it will cause a sensation in the domestic entertainment industry!
But on second thought, Zhang Yuqi is still quite emotionally intelligent.

Even though she had once had a lawsuit with Stephen Chow, at least both parties were decent and the film remuneration and liquidated damages were paid in full.

Unlike that case with Huang, the two sides completely tore each other's faces apart and never had any contact with each other again, which was extremely ugly.

When the broken relationship is reunited here, the one who will regret the most will probably be Huang Shengyi.

After confirming the role, Zhou Xingchi turned around and introduced him: "This is Chen Fei, a well-known director in the industry and the largest investor of The Mermaid."

Hearing this, Zhang Yuqi quickly stepped forward and shouted respectfully, "Hello, Director Chen. I've heard a lot about you!"

As she bends down, her beautiful figure is revealed!

But she didn't seem to care and didn't intend to cover it up.

Chen Fei smiled and said, "Director Wang Quanan and I are quite familiar with each other."

Zhang Yuqi did not specifically mention her Golden Bear director husband, but talked about the movie "Dearest": "In fact, I also played a role in it, but it's a pity that I didn't get to know Director Chen during the filming of the crew."

Fade Chen smiled and said, "It's not too late to get to know each other now."

Zhou Xingchi helped out by saying, "Yuqi has changed a lot in the past few years, and her acting skills have improved a lot. If there is a role suitable for her in the movies directed by Director Chen in the future, you might as well let her try it."

"Okay." Fade Chen agreed directly.

Zhang Yuqi widened her eyes slightly, and she couldn’t believe that she was so lucky to have met the top director in the country!
……

It is extremely difficult to hide something in the entertainment industry.

Chen Fei had just left the crew of "The Mermaid" when the media reported the news.

"Director Chen Fei showed up at the audition for The Mermaid and had a great conversation with Director Stephen Chow. Their friendship has been successfully established since Kung Fu Hustle."

In a blink of an eye, the first weekend of August has passed.

"Guardians of the Galaxy" has great box office potential and successfully earned 2.23 million yuan in the first three days of its weekend.

At the same time, the first week of the postponement of "Transformers 4" has officially ended, and the box office has successfully exceeded 21 billion, which is not far from "Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy".

"Big Fish and Begonia" is still being hotly anticipated. Although its potential is not as good as "The Return of the Great Sage", its total box office has already reached 8.3 million.

Han Han's "See You Tomorrow" has now grossed 5 million yuan, with more than 1000 million yuan in daily new box office revenue. Its performance and reputation are relatively solid.

Among the several movies currently released, the worst ones are undoubtedly "Tiny Times 3: The Golden Age" and "Dragon Nest".

The former's daily box office only dropped to 105 million. Although it is still holding on, the screening schedule has been reduced to the lowest by the theaters.

So far, the total box office is only 5.15 million, which is a long way from 10 billion!
A new round of ridicule and contempt for Guo Jingming has arrived on the Internet. Except for a small number of Internet trolls, most of the others are fans of Han Han.

There's no telling how long these two will end their fight; it's been several months, and there's no sign of stopping.

As for "Dragon Nest", although the ratings and reputation have remained high, it took five days for the box office to barely break 5 million, and the daily box office has dropped to 3000 million.

No matter how much the investors promoted the film, it just couldn't attract any audience, which seemed to have declared failure in advance.

The emergence of this situation has once again caused many animation production companies in the industry to wail.

The future of domestic animated films is really difficult!
