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

Chapter 804: Half of the music industry? Good leeks come one after another...

"Ben-Hur" crew, in the lounge on the second floor.

At this moment, Megan Ellison could clearly hear the cheers and excited howls coming from the "Ready Player One" crew.

There is no need to guess, those people must be celebrating.

The reason for the celebration was, of course, the $2 million compensation paid by the "Ben-Hur" crew to the "Ready Player One" crew.

"Damn Depp, you ruined my plan!"

Megan Ellison's face looked extremely ugly!

Now all the remaining scenes of the crew require Depp himself to participate in the filming. Without him, the crew cannot work normally.

But because he set off fireworks to provoke others, he was beaten into a pig's head and was directly admitted to the hospital!
Megan asked the doctor, in a case like Depp's, it would take at least a week for the swelling to subside and for the patient to be discharged from the hospital and rejoin the filming.

What is delayed is not only time, but also huge investment funds!
She took a look at the crew's financial statements. So far, the funds have been increased to 2.6 million US dollars, which is far beyond the budget!
And because she has invested too much, she is now in a difficult situation and can only be tied to Depp.

At this moment, she couldn't help cursing again: "Johnny Depp! I invested $2.6 million. If I can't recoup the cost, I swear, you can forget about staying in Hollywood."

After suppressing her anger and thinking for a long time, Megan called Amber Heard to the lounge.

Amber is a smart person. As soon as she entered the room, she quickly excused herself: "Ms. Ellison, I have tried my best to restrain Depp. We have argued many times about this..."

"I know." Megan didn't want to hear these explanations, so she interrupted and said, "From now on, I need you to collect all the things that are unfavorable to Depp, and then wait for my notice."

Amber's face changed drastically: "What? This is impossible! He is my husband!"

Megan glanced at her and took out another large check: "I believe you are a smart person and should know what to do, right?"

Amber knew it, but after looking at the number on the check, she still emphasized: "I need to point out that Depp and I are a family that will never be separated."

Megan showed a sneer on her face. These words sounded very high-sounding, but didn't she still take the check?
She knew exactly what this meant.

"As his bedmate, you should know better than me what kind of person Depp is. Just think about it, how long can your marriage last?"

Megan crossed her arms over her chest and put forward more conditions: “I can promise you that when you divorce, I will hire the best lawyer for you.

In the future, I will invest in many film projects and will need many leading actresses, and you will be the best candidate."

Faced with such conditions, Amber couldn't even think of refusing.

She immediately extended her hand to Megan: "Boss, I wish us a happy cooperation!"

"Haha, OK, happy cooperation."

Megan was overjoyed. This way, she no longer had any worries.

The two conspired for half an hour before finally parting ways.

After walking out of the lounge, the smile on Amber's face became even brighter!
In fact, before Megan got involved, she had been collecting all the bad things Depp had done and left direct evidence, such as photos and videos.

And now with Megan's intervention, she can actually get extra money. Why not do it?

After this period of hard work, she has gained a lot.

Depp had a very bad temper after taking drugs, and his ex-wife broke up with him because she couldn't stand the domestic violence.

The same thing happened to Amber.

After Depp drank and took drugs, he would be very violent towards her in bed, often beating her until her buttocks were swollen and she had to lie prone to sleep.

She recorded all of this.

When they divorce in the future, with the help of these evidences, she will definitely be able to take a large amount of wealth out of Depp's pocket and squander it!
Then, coupled with Megan Ellison’s compensation, it would be the best of both worlds!

……

As July approaches, the filming work at the studio is almost complete.

According to the plan set by Chen Fei before, at the end of June, he will take the crew to the UK to shoot the subsequent plot.

And the crew will spend the following July and August in the UK.

Livingston, Birmingham, Surrey...these are all the filming locations that the crew had decided in advance.

So far, some staff have already arrived in the UK in advance to start the final location review.

Just wait for the crew to move to another location and then we can continue shooting smoothly.

Apart from the negative news about Depp, there hasn’t been any big news in Hollywood recently. But it’s different in mainland China, the fun never stops!
Just when many people were still immersed in the news that Fan Bingbing and Li Chen announced their relationship, Wang Feng, who was obsessed with pursuing "hot searches", suddenly jumped out.

That morning, Wang Feng's studio successfully created a huge uproar on Weibo.

They published a long public article with a shocking title - "Without Wang Feng, the mainland music scene would lose half of its territory."

This long article was like a bombshell, instantly detonating the entire entertainment industry!

In the article, Wang Feng Studio was generous with their praise and gave high evaluation to Wang Feng's talent and influence. They clearly pointed out that without Wang Feng, the mainland music scene would be in a terrible state and would lose half of its territory.

This confident and direct expression forces people to re-examine Wang Feng's position in the music industry.

Wang Feng himself also attached great importance to this long article.

Afterwards, he forwarded the article immediately and expressed his deep gratitude to all the team members for their efforts: "I know very well that without the support and hard work of the team, I would never have achieved such great success today!"

As this long article became widely circulated, more and more people in the film, television and music circles began to pay attention to and forward it.

Zhang Ziyi immediately joined the ranks of liking and forwarding the post, and even many official media outlets reprinted and reported it.

The influence of this long article is evident!
However, at the same time, the entire entertainment industry and the entire Internet were shocked!
Looking around the entire internet, people have never seen an artist who dares to brag about himself like this. This simply shows the spirit of "shamelessness" to the fullest!
However, while being shocked, netizens couldn't help but feel puzzled.

What on earth stimulated this guy Wang Feng to suddenly do such a outrageous thing?

Just when netizens and people in the circle were confused, Fengxing Entertainment, as the leader among paparazzi, gave an explanation at the first time.

It turned out that Wang Feng found that he was being secretly photographed when he was leaving a hotel. But when his assistant stepped forward to stop him, the other party said that he was a fan of Jay Chou and was not there to take pictures of Wang Feng.

In the controversy, the other party even bluntly stated: "Wang Feng is old and no longer famous. He is not worthy of being followed by fans..."

These remarks immediately irritated Wang Feng's fragile heart, which led to such a drama.

When people saw the reason, there were a lot of laughs online:
"I am old, what's there to argue about?"

"Hahaha, being humiliated by fans on the spot, no wonder Wang Feng did this, he must be so angry!"

"But when it comes to fame and talent, Wang Feng just can't compare to Jay Chou. What's there to argue about?"

“Brother upstairs, you didn’t let him go either!”

"Hahaha, I'm dying of laughter. The old man refuses to admit his age. He's trying to prove his status in society!"

Faced with the ridicule from the entire Internet, Wang Feng naturally would not sit idly by.

In less than half an hour, his studio released another long article, the implicit meaning of which was to show that Wang Feng's status in the industry was not comparable to that of a few up-and-coming stars.

"In the mainland music industry, Wang Feng's name is like a bright star, illuminating the entire music scene. His musical talent is not only admired by everyone, but also the spiritual sustenance of countless music lovers! Through the data survey report, it can be clearly seen that without Wang Feng and his tour, the mainland music industry will inevitably fall into a bleak situation..."

With the release of this long article, the controversy about Wang Feng spread like wildfire!
In the entertainment industry, although many people choose to remain silent or show their support out of consideration for others, netizens have expressed their opinions mercilessly.

"Ugh! This is so disgusting. You still say you are as bright as a star? Is there anyone who praises himself like this?"

"Hahaha, I'm so happy. This is the first time I've seen someone so shameless. You're the only one who occupies half of the music industry? So, Pu Shu, Xu Wei, Lao Lang, Han Hong, and Dao Lang can only hang out in the other half?"

"It's as if the music industry is completely ruined without you. How about we make a bet? If you quit the music industry now, I'll see if the music industry can fall into ruin."

"..."

For a time, voices of ridicule, slapping, abuse, and exposing of shortcomings were heard one after another on the Internet.

Some people even jokingly call Wang Feng "Wang Half Wall", implying that he has too high an opinion of himself and occupies half of the music industry.

"I've lived for more than 30 years, and I've never seen such a shameless person!" Chen Fei ate the watermelon and smacked his lips. "'Zhang Guoji' and 'Wang Banbi'? That's quite interesting. They seem to be a good match."

Liu Yifei giggled as she listened: "It seems like this couple really likes hype!"

"That's right." Chen Fei raised a sneer at the corner of his mouth: "But the key problem is that these two people can't even hype up the point, and they often make jokes."

If nothing unexpected happens, the name "Wang Banbi" may follow Wang Feng for the rest of his life.

Just like Zhang Ziyi’s International Zhang, all of them are nicknames with mixed reviews.

At the same time, news that "The Undocumented Crime" had started filming in Hengdian also came out, but it did not cause much waves because it was just a TV series after all.

In comparison, news related to film projects is more eye-catching.

"Exclusively produced by Huayi, with Wang Zhonglei and Ye Ning as producers, the directorial debut of Emblem Films, "Lu Yao Zhi Mali", officially started filming this morning, starring Bao Bei'er, Zhu Yawen, Song Jia, etc."

"The youth-themed film "Gardenia Blossoms", produced by Huayi and several other companies, has officially announced that it will be released on July 7 and will compete in the summer season. Most people in the industry are optimistic about He Jiong's debut film."

"The 18th Shanghai International Film Festival has officially come to an end. The Pancake Man won the Best Film Media Award, Dong Chengpeng won the Best Director Media Award, and Lu Han won the Best New Actor Award..."

Looking at these news, Chen Fei remained silent...still silent.

He didn't know what words to use to describe his mood. This couldn't be simply described with the word "shit". This was pure nonsense!
"The Pancake Man" won the Best Picture and Best Director awards. What's the difference between this and playing house?
At this moment, he became more determined to host an award ceremony.

Domestic filmmakers, netizens and movie fans must see what a truly fair, just and open film award selection mechanism is!
"Jingle Bell!"

A cross-border phone call from Su Guohai temporarily interrupted Chen Fei's reverie.

"Hey?"

"Boss Chen, we received an invitation to the premiere of "The Taoist Goes Down the Mountain". Chen Hong wanted me to ask you if you have time to come back and attend."

"No, I don't have time." Chen Fei said simply, "You can go for me when the time comes."

After that, he added, "There's also the premiere of Sicario. I can't go back either. You can host it for me and invite Ning Hao and Guo Fan to come along and show their support."

"Ok."

Su Guohai responded and quickly changed the subject: "Director Chen, there is one more thing I need to report to you."

"Oh? What's the matter?"

"The domestic stock index has soared to 5100, and Huayi's market value is on the verge of 900 billion. The two brothers have been very active in the past two days and have even started to contact our company's employees."

Fade Chen raised his eyebrows: "What? Are you trying to poach our people?"

"That's right!" Su Guohai's voice was a little dull. "Although Huayi is apparently moving away from movies, their film company seems to be expanding recently. I heard that they are preparing to adjust their internal personnel structure and seek new development opportunities."

"Haha, then what positions of employees do they come into contact with?"

"As far as I know, they mainly contacted middle-level employees of our company, including core members of the screenwriting department, lighting and photography teams, and there was also news from the animation department."

"This is to cut off the firewood from under the cauldron!"

Middle-level employees are the cornerstone and backbone of a film and television company. If they are poached by Huayi, it will undoubtedly be a huge loss for Feiyue Film and Television.

"These two are quite capable of causing trouble."

Fade Chen curled his lips, not particularly worried.

He thinks that the benefits of Feiyu Films are quite good, and there are also great opportunities for development here.

But if I leave this platform, it is still unknown whether I can still have the current benefits!

He believed that unless one was particularly stupid, one would not make such an unwise choice!

“In the near future, a group of people who have completed training will return to the company from Hollywood. You can arrange the positions for them. If someone is really poached, let this group of people take over.

Our company has no shortage of resources, room for development, or benefits. If someone still wants to leave, then there is no need to keep them. We have plenty of talent!"

You know, it is graduation season now, and tens of thousands of graduates from major art schools have walked out of school and stepped into the society.

There is no shortage of good talent among these people. As long as we gather them together and send them to Hollywood and train them for a few months, they will become the most competent middle-level backbones when they return.

Therefore, Chen Fei was not worried at all about the company's middle-level employees being poached.

If we let him dig as hard as he can, how much can he dig?

As for Huayi, it is just a grasshopper in autumn. A film and television company has actually embarked on the route of real estate and finance. It will be doomed sooner or later!
……

As July is getting closer, the competition for summer promotion in the film and television industry has reached its most intense moment.

With the arrival of a new day, many hot searches have made headlines!
"The urban emotional TV series Ode to Joy, exclusively produced by Feiyue Films and starring Liu Tao, Jiang Xin, Wang Ziwen, Yang Zi, Qiao Xin and others, officially premiered on Dragon TV and Zhejiang Satellite TV today, and will also be launched on Youku at the same time."

"The action movie "Ip Man 4", produced by Feiyue Films and Yinghuang, directed by Yip Wai-hsin, starring Zhao Wenzhuo, Wu Yue, Vanness Wu, Scott Adkins, Kent Cheng, and Danny Chan, with Li Wanda as a special guest star, and Yuan Heping as the action director, has officially started shooting today!"

"The crime action film Chasing the Dragon, produced by Feiyue Films and Golden Harvest, directed by Guan Zhiyao, and starring Andy Lau and Leung Ka Fai, officially started filming today."

"The martial arts action film Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 2: Sword of Destiny, jointly produced by China Film Group Corporation and Dongyang Paige, directed by Yuan Heping, with action designs by Ling Zhihua and Yuan Xinyi, starring Zhen Zixuan, Yang Ziqiong, Shum Yongkang, Liu Chengyu, Li Jie, Yuan Liqi, Wu Qingyun, Yuan Zhizheng and others, has officially been announced to be released on February 2016, 2, and will compete in the Spring Festival schedule."

"The Shanghai Composite Index, Shenzhen Composite Index, ChiNext Index, and Science and Technology Innovation Board Index all soared, and the A-share market index soared to its highest level in eight years, up more than 8 points from the beginning of the year, an increase of more than 60%, and is likely to approach 6 points."

"The share prices of film and television industry giants such as Huayi and Guangguang have soared again, and many film and television companies have announced that they will accelerate the listing process!"

"The wealth of many celebrities such as Feng Xiaogang, Fan Bingbing, and Zhao Yanzi has skyrocketed, and countless investors are waving their money into the market, intending to take advantage of this opportunity to make a fortune!"

"Industry experts have analyzed that in the future, domestic stock investors will also be able to achieve wealth freedom through the stock market and catch up with the United States..."

Inside the villa, Chen Fei rested his head on Liu Yifei's thigh, watching the news while getting excited.

He now particularly wants to short the domestic stock market, but after thinking it over he gave up the idea.

Thanks to US stocks, he has already made countless wealth, but as for China... forget it, there is no point in making a small investment.

It’s just a pity for the leeks, I don’t know how many times they will have to be harvested.
