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

Chapter 766: "Big Movie" is aimed at the summer vacation! The Extreme Men's Gang has assembled and missed "Zuoshan Diao"...

In the outside world, the topic of "The Ferryman" is still a hot topic. On the other hand, Weibo Night has announced the list of guests for this year.

Looking around, over the past year, the most popular actors, stars, and traffic artists in the circle are all among them.

There is no need to guess, this will definitely be another "lively and lively" large-scale celebration.

Although Chen Fei also received an invitation, he was not planning to attend such a meaningless event.

The post-production of "Operation Mekong" has reached the most critical stage, and he is ready to get all the work done before going to the Oscars ceremony.

"Hey? Director Chen! You're here just in time. How about you review my movie?"

At the company gate, looking at Lu Yang standing in front of him, Fade Chen was in a daze for a moment.

But then he reacted: "What? The post-production of Sicario is finished?"

"Yes!" Lu Yang nodded and replied with a smile: "It's been more than three months. It's time to end it."

"Okay, let's go take a look."

Chen Fei turned around and followed him to the screening room.

There were no other staff members in the huge screening room, so Lu Yang took charge of it himself, and soon the finished film was projected on the big screen.

The story takes place in the Golden Triangle area, which is known as the "no man's land".

Here, drugs and crime are rampant, drug dealers and killers trade and fight, and disregard the law.

In this chaotic world, there is a group of people who are tasked with maintaining justice and order. They are none other than the protagonist team in "Sicario".

At the beginning of the movie, a female special forces member played by Liu Shishi discovered the bodies of people mutilated by a foreign drug gang during a hostage rescue operation.

This incident inspired her to investigate further.

Afterwards, she voluntarily joined the anti-drug team led by the male protagonist played by Xie Miao, with the goal of arresting a notorious drug lord whose influence spread throughout the Golden Triangle.

As the investigation deepened, she gradually discovered that this anti-drug team was not simple.

They used all means necessary in their actions, killing drug dealers indiscriminately and even disregarding the law and public opinion!

This also constantly challenges her moral bottom line and law enforcement beliefs.

However, she did not choose to back down, but instead became more determined to pursue the truth.

In the process, she met the mysterious, retired anti-drug pioneer "Old K" (Wang Qianyuan). He used to be an upright anti-drug police officer, but after his wife and daughter were killed by drug dealers, he turned into a border killer and began to kill indiscriminately for revenge.

As the story unfolds, the anti-drug squad launched a series of thrilling operations in the Golden Triangle area.

They were not afraid of danger and successfully covered "Old K"'s action, who cruelly and calmly wiped out the drug lord's entire family for revenge.

During this process, the heroine played by Liu Shishi also experienced a transformation from ignorance to maturity, from doubt to determination.

The movie "Sicario" not only shows the phenomenon of drug crimes in border areas, but also explores the dark side of human nature and the ambiguity of morality.

The characters in the movie interpret what is justice and what is evil through their actions.

At the same time, in this chaotic world, they stick to their beliefs and principles and work hard to maintain justice and order.

After more than an hour of screening, Fade Chen nodded with satisfaction.

"Not bad, all the selling points are cut out."

From his perspective, the selling point of "Sicario" lies in its thrilling plot, in-depth exploration of moral dilemmas, excellent visual effects and thought-provoking themes.

When all of these are combined together, an excellent movie is officially formed.

Lu Yang was very excited to receive Chen Fei's praise, and immediately said: "Since you think there is no problem, then I will arrange for it to be submitted for review first?"

"Okay." Fade Chen nodded and asked again, "By the way, when are you going to release this movie?"

"I want to go to the summer vacation."

Chen Fei thought about it and did not object: "The summer vacation period is indeed suitable for this kind of commercial film. Although there may be more competition, the subject matter of this movie is very good, and I think it will attract a lot of attention from the audience."

"Yes, I think so too."

Lu Yang chuckled. He was actually quite confident because this movie was so "cool".

It's exciting from the beginning to the end. Isn't this a major advantage of commercial films in box office sales?

……

After parting with Lu Yang, Chen Fei once again immersed himself in the editing room.

The post-production editing work of "The Mermaid" had already begun. Chen Fei also met Zhou Xingchi who was leaving in a hurry, but the two did not chat much. They just said hello briefly and then parted ways.

He was busy until nightfall, when he finally turned his attention away from the computer screen.

"Huh? It's already 7 o'clock?"

Shaking his head, Fade Chen stood up, said hello to the other post-production staff who were still busy, and left the editing room first.

On the way to the cafeteria, he happened to meet Chen Guofu who was coming out of the screenwriter department.

As soon as they met, Chen Guofu smiled and congratulated him: "Mr. Chen, you just came back? Congratulations, you won another Golden Globe Award for Best Director."

Chen Fei smiled and did not respond to his question. Instead, he asked, "I see you just came out of the screenwriting department? Have you come across any suitable projects?"

"I did come across a very good novel. Maybe it can be made into an art film to win awards, but it hasn't been adapted yet. I'll show it to you when there's something in the works."

"Okay, if you have an idea, just do it. The company will fully support you."

Chen Guofu's eyes showed some gratitude, and he nodded heavily: "Okay!"

Thinking back to when he was at Huayi, although he was the "content director", he was always controlled by others and had never really made a work that belonged to him and satisfied him.

But now that he has come to Feiyue Films, he not only enjoys the greatest degree of freedom, but also receives a lot of support, which even allows him, a man over 50, to continue pursuing his dream.

Just thinking about it, he wanted to work at Feiyue Film and Television until he died.

Looking back at Huayi, although it looks prosperous now, if you look beyond the surface to the essence, it is just an empty shell.

With the help of tourism, the Internet and real estate, the company's appearance is built to be extremely gorgeous.

I'm afraid the two brothers of the Wang family have long forgotten that they originally went public on the pretext of "developing the film, television and cultural industries."

But now?

They have long forgotten their original intention and are only concerned with making money in the stock market, not caring about developing film and television culture courses at all.

Sometimes, Chen Guofu even secretly felt lucky that he left Huayi early.

If he continues to be tied to the two brothers of the Wang family, he will probably not be able to escape when the day comes when the building collapses.

……

The two chatted along the way and soon arrived at the cafeteria.

At this time, Chen Guofu suddenly mentioned another thing: "By the way, Mr. Chen, have you seen the news online today? Brother Chen Kai's film "The Taoist Goes Down the Mountain" has been approved."

"Oh? Passed the trial?"

Chen Fei raised his eyebrows in surprise, then took out his cell phone and logged into Weibo.

Then, he saw "The Taoist Goes Down the Mountain" which had already dominated the charts on Weibo!
"The Republican fantasy film "The Taoist Goes Down the Mountain", directed and written by Chen Kaige and starring Feng Shaofeng, Guo Fucheng, Zhang Zhen, Lin Chiling, Fan Wei and others, has successfully obtained a public screening permit today."

"The film "The Taoist Goes Down the Mountain" has been officially scheduled for the summer vacation, and will be released nationwide on July 7 in 2D, IMAX 3D format, and Dolby Atmos."

"'The Taoist Goes Down the Mountain' is not only Chen Kaige's first 3D movie, but also his first IMAX martial arts blockbuster. The film brings together many talented actors from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and Hong Kong, and will save the decline of martial arts movies. Please stay tuned..."

The relevant press releases are spreading everywhere on the Internet, and it seems that it is going to dominate the entire summer season.

However, Fade Chen looked somewhat puzzled.

Judging from the announcement from the Film Bureau, it is obvious that this film passed the review in one go.

But the problem is, the "Dragon Prince" appears in this movie. Unless he cuts all his scenes, how can it pass the review in one go?
"Is he really willing to cut out that part of the footage?" Chen Fei felt that it was unlikely. Given Brother Chen Kai's pro-Hong Kong nature and the presence of Chen Long, he might resort to some means to forcibly save Prince Long.

But the problem is that the official document has already been issued.

If he really chooses to protect him to the death, wouldn't he be going against his superiors?

Chen Fei couldn't figure it out for a moment, so he could only wait until the movie was released to find the conclusion.

However, Lu Yang rushed to the company the next day and found him, wanting to hear his opinion.

"Mr. Chen, if Sicario is also released during the summer vacation and collides with Chen Kai's The Taoist Goes Down the Mountain, will it be undermined?"

Hearing his concerns, Fade Chen chuckled and asked, "Think about it first. From The Promise to all the movies that followed, has Brother Chen Kai ever had a movie that was a real big hit?"

Lu Yang was slightly stunned. After thinking for a moment, he slowly shook his head and said, "It seems, it seems, almost... I lost everything???"

"Then why are you so scared? Just beat him up and it'll be over."

"Okay, I listen to you!"

Lu Yang suddenly became excited. If he could beat Brother Chen Kai at the box office, wouldn't he be able to go out and brag about it?

"I beat the Palme d'Or director Chen Kai during the summer vacation!"

Just thinking about it made him so excited that he almost peed!

……

Because of the experience in making variety shows, Youku's preparations will be much faster this time.

On January 1, the "Go Fighting" program team held its first press conference. While announcing the remaining two permanent guests, they also invited the other four selected guests to the scene.

Huang Bo, Sun Honglei, Huang Xiaoming, Sha Yi, Yu Hewei, Zhang Yixing.

At this point, all six permanent guests are here!
Immediately after the press conference ended, the list of permanent guests was published online by the media, triggering another round of heated discussion.

"The outdoor reality show "Go Fighting", which is controlled by Youku and invested and produced by Feiyue Film and Television and Guangguang, officially announced its permanent guest lineup today."

"The permanent guest lineup is as follows: Huang Bo, Sun Honglei, Huang Xiaoming, Sha Yi, Yu Hewei, Zhang Yixing, the chief director is Yan Min, and South Korea's "Infinite Challenge" will participate in the auxiliary recording."

"Compared to Running Man, Go Fighting has been controversial since the announcement of its first permanent guest, with many people not optimistic about it..."

That afternoon, amid heated discussions online, several investors sat together again.

"When are you going to start recording?"

Listening to Chen Fei's question, Gu Yongqiang replied: "The recording of the first episode will officially begin in a week, and the first season is expected to be launched in June."

"Is it the summer vacation season again?"

Chen Fei muttered a few words subconsciously, but did not raise any objections.

After all, the summer vacation period is indeed one of the best time periods in the year, and students are on vacation, which greatly helps the ratings of variety shows.

After chatting about the related plans of "Extreme Challenge" for more than half an hour, the topic returned to "Running Man".

Chen Fei turned his gaze to Wang Changtian and deliberately teased, "Boss Wang, are you still going to record the lighting for the second season of Running Man? If you don't want to, forget it. We won't force you."

"Hey? What are you talking about?" Wang Changtian said with resentment: "I'm not stupid. If I miss such a good project, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep well in the future."

"Hahahahaha!"

A burst of laughter suddenly broke out in the reception room.

Immediately afterwards, the three parties signed a contract for the co-recording of the second season of "Running Man".

Although Chen Fei and Gu Yongqiang could have simply abandoned the light and not played with Wang Changtian, they ultimately did not do so.

Win-win cooperation and risk sharing are the right path. If you are always keen on having the best deal, the current Tangren is the best example.

The next day, the official website of "Running Man" announced that the recording of the second season will officially start in March.

"It's still the same cast, and it's still hilarious, so stay tuned..."

In the morning, everyone in the circle focused on the two variety shows "Running Man" and "Go Fighting".

Although there is no chance to become a permanent guest, it seems pretty good to go there as a flying guest, and the speed of increasing followers is also amazing!
For those female stars, the opportunity to record the first episode of "Go Fighting" is even greater than the opportunity to record the second season of "Running Man".

After all, the latter already has Guli Nazha as a permanent guest, while the former is a game for six men.

If you can participate in it, it is no exaggeration to say that as long as the variety show becomes a big hit, the influence will be absolutely huge.

Many female celebrities immediately heard the news and jumped into action, hoping to get the chance to become famous overnight!
……

LeTV Pictures, President’s Office.

Looking at the girl standing in front of him, Zhang Zhao's expression was quite interesting.

He had seen people with big appetites, but he had never seen one with such a big appetite!
"You mean, if we want to sign you, the conditions are that you can play the leading female role in two movies, three TV series, and have a chance to participate in the recording of Go Fighting alone?"

"That's right." Zhou Dongyu nodded slowly and said bluntly: "Mr. Zhang, my contract with Shiyi Culture is about to expire. At present, in addition to LeTV, companies such as Huanrui, Alibaba, Tangren, Chengtian, and Huayi are all in contact with me.

My conditions have not changed. I will join any company that meets my requirements."

Hearing this, Zhang Zhao fell silent.

This condition is quite high, even high enough to reach the level of top-tier female stars. He must consider it carefully.

At the same time, on the other hand, an announcement suddenly issued by Enlight Pictures once again caused an uproar in the industry!
"Due to the influence of relevant document policies, the company has decided to reshoot and re-produce the fantasy film "Monster Hunt" starring the bad artist Ke Zhendong.

Actor Jing Boyan will replace Ke Zhendong as the male lead. During the reshoot process, the film will also add new actors, such as Yao Chen, Tang Wei, Cindy..."

As the news came out, while the industry was discussing it heatedly, they also unconsciously turned their attention to Huayi.

Judging from the latest news, almost all the new actors joining "Monster Hunt" are from the Huayi faction.

The male lead Jing Boyan and the female lead Bai Baihe are both direct descendants of Huayi.

Those who don’t know would have thought that "Monster Hunt" was a movie produced by Huayi Investment. It seemed that Enlight Pictures had become someone else’s tool in the blink of an eye.

……

In a blink of an eye, it was already the 23rd of late January.

That morning, an announcement from the theater attracted the attention of many people in the animation industry.

"The comedy and fantasy film "One Hundred Thousand Bad Jokes", produced by YouYaoQi Animation DreamWorks and invested 1052 million yuan, was withdrawn from theaters ahead of schedule. Unfortunately, it was not able to be fully screened in full. The box office closed at 1.56 million yuan."

At the same time, YouYaoQi Comics announced that it will officially start the production of "One Hundred Thousand Bad Jokes 2". Fans are welcome to stay tuned.

Chen Fei specially arranged for a team from Feiyue Film and Television's animation department to go there and provided them with some help within their capacity, hoping that they could achieve greater success.

Of course, animated films such as "Shi Leng" are ultimately just a carnival for the "second-dimensional niche group". The general trend of Chinese-language films as a whole is currently focused on live-action films.

For example, the imported blockbuster "The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies" released today attracted the attention of countless domestic movie fans as soon as it was released.

In particular, the producers specially came to the country for a promotional tour, which made movie fans "double their favorability".

Cinema chains are also very optimistic about this film and have given it a very high screening schedule.

This has also made the situation of other domestic films increasingly difficult.

Many domestic film and television production companies even began to miss the time when Han Sanping was the "boss".

Although "Zuoshan Diao" is very domineering, he is really ruthless to imported blockbusters, and often makes those foreign producers feel extremely excited.

However, since La Peikang took office, he seems to have been pursuing investment in movies to accumulate enough political achievements for himself.

As for the life and death of other domestic films, judging from his attitude, he doesn't really care.
