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

Chapter 851: If you don't make a sound, you'll be amazing! There are more and more people bragging...

On a new day, on the way to the company, Fade Chen glanced at the calendar and then opened Weibo.

As he expected, the hot search headlines on Weibo have now been dominated by Alibaba’s Double Eleven Gala held at the Water Cube in China last night!

Looking around, most of the people in the entertainment industry showed up to show their support, the enthusiasm was so high it was simply terrifying!
Not to mention anything else, just inviting these actors, singers, and idol artists from the entertainment industry to attend the event would probably cost no less than nine figures.

Not to mention venue rental, audio equipment, advertising and marketing...

It is not an exaggeration to describe Alibaba’s Double Eleven Gala as “spending money like water”.

Among all the celebrities in the entertainment industry, Zhao Yanzi can be said to be the most popular.

As Ma Yun's "partner" and a well-known female capitalist in the circle, she has now become very successful and even looks down on the title of "Four Dan and Two Bing".

After all, she is able to perform on the same stage with Ma Yun. Who else in the entertainment industry can compare to her?

Jack Ma, who is now on the rise, caused a sensation the moment he took the stage. The subsequent speeches were so exciting that people could hardly control themselves.

Overnight, Alibaba seemed to have reached a new level in the industry, and even its subsidiary Alibaba Pictures also rose with it, making it enviable.

I have to say that when it comes to bragging, Chen Fei admires Jack Ma quite a bit.

I don't know what's wrong with that mouth of his, but the words he speaks seem to have magic, and can easily achieve the effect of bewitching people.

Strictly speaking, this can also be regarded as a special kind of golden finger.

……

After arriving at the company, Chen Fei did not start working immediately. Instead, he picked up the latest issue of The Hollywood Daily from the newspaper rack and started reading.

November is not a popular period in Hollywood, and the only blockbusters currently in theaters are "Geostorm" and "Spectre."

In terms of box office, the former is obviously higher than the latter.

Although the "007" series has always been popular, North America is not the main source of box office revenue, which can be seen from its box office data.

After five days of release in North America, the box office has only reached 5 million US dollars, which is far less than the 8302 million US dollars of "Geostorm".

However, as one of the "evergreens" in Hollywood, "007" has always been Sony Columbia's trump card and the "best choice" to maintain the company's profitability.

From this point of view, this series definitely cannot be stopped, but I don’t know how long it can last?
After taking a quick look at the front page of the newspaper, Chen Fei flipped to the back.

It would have been fine if he hadn't turned it over, but this time he was stunned!
At the top of the newspaper, a line of bold and black text suddenly appeared:

"Annapurna Pictures released good news: Based on the survey data of 11 preview screenings of "King Arthur: Legend of the Sword", it can be concluded that the global box office performance of this movie will definitely not be less than 10 billion US dollars!"

"puff!"

Chen Fei burst out laughing on the spot.

This guy is bragging so much, isn't he afraid of blowing the sky apart or even collapsing it?
Looking around, there are only a handful of large-scale fantasy epic movies in Hollywood and even around the world whose total box office can exceed 10 billion US dollars.

Even Warner Bros. Pictures, which produced the two epic blockbusters "The Lord of the Rings" and "The Hobbit", does not dare to brag about this.

But Megan Ely just blew the bull out of her mind.

"As expected of the 'Princess' of Oracle, these people who came out of the Internet companies are all boastful... one is better than the other."

Chen Fei curled his lips and threw the newspaper into the newsstand.

This daily newspaper is no longer interesting. The boasting has stained the entire newspaper.

He is waiting now. If the box office of this movie doesn’t break 10 billion US dollars, let’s see how Megan Erie ends up!
……

As the work progressed, in a blink of an eye, it was already late November.

With Chen Fei's assistance, the post-production progress of "Ready Player One" is very fast, and it has already increased from the original 1/5 to the current 2/5.

According to his plan, the post-production progress of the film must be at least advanced to 12/3 before late December.

He would then have to return to his country, and the follow-up work would have to be handled by other members of the project team.

Of course, the reason why the progress is so fast is mainly because the early work is relatively simple, and the difficulty will increase rapidly later!
This is one of the reasons why Chen Fei said when the film was completed that this film would most likely be released to fans in 2017.

The main reason is that the post-production is too complicated and difficult. How can it be done in just a few months to integrate so many copyrights together?

After a new day's work, on the way back to the villa, Chen Fei discovered that the competition for the domestic Lunar New Year box office had already begun.

Currently occupying the top spot on the hot search headlines is the movie "Mr. Six" directed by Guan Hu and starring Feng Xiaogang.

I don’t know how much money Huayi spent, but the news release... was spread all over the Internet!

"At the premiere of the movie "Old Cannon", in response to reporters' questions, Director Guan Hu said that this year's Lunar New Year movie season will definitely be a period when "Old Cannon" will dominate the market!"

"Director Feng Xiaogang said that none of the films like 'Unbelievable', 'The Master', 'Never Expected', 'Bad Angels', and 'A Moment in Heaven' could possibly rival 'Old Cannon'. He has every confidence that he can win the box office championship during this year's Lunar New Year holiday!"

"Wang Zhonglei, president of Huayi Brothers Film and Television, said: "Old Cannon" brings together two top domestic directors, and also has two idol superstars Li Yifeng and Wu Yifan, covering a huge fan base. Let's ask, who can compete with it?"

"In terms of box office forecast, Feng Xiaogang, Guan Hu and Wang Zhonglei jointly called for a breakthrough of '10 billion'!"

"Old Cannon has confirmed that it will participate in the selection of this year's Golden Horse Awards and will launch a charge for the three major awards of Best Director, Best Picture and Best Actor."

Looking at the news online, Fade Chen couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Feiyue Film and Television did not participate in this year's Lunar New Year holiday, so looking around, "Old Cannon" had almost no strong competitors during the same period.

In this case, maybe it will be possible for it to achieve a box office revenue of over 10 billion!

Of course, even if it really breaks 10 billion, it will not affect Feiyue Film and Television.

After all, "Operation Mekong" is enough to make Feiyue Films stand on the overall list of the 2015 box office performance rankings.

In addition to the news related to "Mr. Six", Chen Fei also saw news about the online broadcast of the TV series "The Legend of Yuer" starring Jing Tian at the bottom of the hot search list.

Compared with "The Legend of Ban Shu", "The Legend of Dayuer" is somewhat inferior to the former in terms of ratings and click-through rate. After all, the latter did not qualify for satellite broadcast.

However, even if it was not broadcast on satellite TV, Jing Tian’s efforts cannot be ignored.

She is becoming more and more adept at costume dramas, and as long as the plot is not too bad, she can usually display good acting skills.

Especially when she plays the role of "being in a high position", she performs very well.

……

On the 22nd, Hollywood time, news about the 52nd Golden Horse Awards ceremony reached Chen Fei's ears.

A total of 427 films were registered for this year's Golden Horse Awards, 39 films were shortlisted, and 15 films won awards.

"The Assassin" won the Best Feature Film, Hou Xiaoxian won the Best Director for "The Assassin", Feng Xiaogang won the Best Actor for "Mr. Six", and Lin Jiaxin won the Best Actress for "A Hundred Days' Farewell".

After seeing this result, Chen Fei was not too surprised, because it was almost the same as his previous prediction.

It was Feng Xiaogang's performance at the award ceremony that made him feel a little funny. He was almost 6 years old, holding the Golden Horse Award for Best Actor, but he actually shed tears on the stage. It was really something.

However, his action also successfully made "Mr. Six" a hot topic again and attracted a lot of attention.

~

Chen Fei did not pay much attention to the news about the Golden Horse Awards because he had a very important press conference to attend today.

The first thing he did after landing in New York was to go straight to Marvel Studios. He entered the backstage of the venue at the appointed time and met Kevin Feige and the person in charge from Sony.

Looking at the two people in front of him who were a little nervous, he asked directly, "Are you all ready?"

The two looked at each other and nodded at the same time: "Everything is ready."

"Okay." Chen Fei nodded with a smile: "Then let's get started. It's time to officially announce it to the public..."

Today is the day when the two major film giants Marvel and Sony jointly held a press conference. Both parties had informed each other of the news half a month ago.

Therefore, today's press conference has attracted much attention, and countless fans and media have been waiting outside the venue early, looking forward to the upcoming big news.

At ten o'clock in the morning, as the lights in the venue gradually lit up and a burst of passionate music sounded, the press conference officially kicked off.

Kevin Feige was the first to walk onto the stage and extended a warm welcome to everyone present.

He then briefly reviewed the years of cooperation between Marvel and Sony, as well as the important position of the character "Spider-Man" in the hearts of movie fans.

Then, according to the pre-designed process, he said directly: "Today, we will announce important news about Spider-Man to everyone..."

As soon as the words fell, the atmosphere on the scene suddenly became tense, and everyone held their breath, afraid of missing any details.

At this moment, the big screen on the stage suddenly lit up, and a very shocking animated trailer appeared.

In the trailer, Spider-Man, wearing a brand new battle suit, moves freely between the city's tall buildings and engages in a thrilling battle with evil forces...

After the trailer, which lasted less than three minutes, was played, thunderous applause broke out at the scene!
Kevin Feige took the stage again and officially revealed the answer: "Starting today, Spider-Man will officially return to the Marvel Universe, and will soon release a brand new movie - Spider-Man: Homecoming!"

As soon as the news was announced, the scene became boiling.

Fans cheered and media rushed to capture this historic moment.

Afterwards, the press conference entered the detailed introduction phase.

Amid the surprised and incredulous gazes of all the fans in the audience, Chen Fei emerged from the backstage with a microphone and told all the guests, media and fans present about the exciting scenes that will appear in Spider-Man: Homecoming.

"This movie will continue the consistent style of the Spider-Man series, while adding more novel elements and surprises. The film mainly tells the story of Spider-Man Peter Parker using his superpowers to fight villains and save the world.

At the same time, the plot will also focus on Peter's choice and conflict between being a high school student and a superhero, showing the frustration and trials Peter experienced in the process of becoming a member of the Avengers..."

As he spoke, the atmosphere became more and more heated!
At this point, everyone had already heard the other hidden meaning in Chen Fei's words!
That is: After Spider-Man returns to Marvel, he will also join the "Avengers" family.

After realizing this, the fans were almost going crazy with excitement, and the media at the scene were so excited that they kept pressing the shutter button, quickly capturing this hot event on camera.

Then, a representative from Sony also took the stage to speak:

"Sony and Marvel have a long history of cooperation and have always maintained a good cooperative relationship. The return of Spider-Man to the Marvel Universe is the result of the joint efforts of both parties.

We believe that this movie will become another classic in the Marvel Universe, bringing more shocking visual experience and emotional resonance to the audience..."

The press conference lasted for 2 hours!
During this period, Kevin Feige, Chen Fei, and Sony's executives took turns to appear on the stage and carefully described the subsequent development plans for the big IP "Spider-Man" from the perspectives of producer, screenwriter, and investor.

As soon as the press conference ended, the relevant news releases flew around the world as if they had wings.

Weibo published the relevant reports at the first opportunity, directly suppressing the news and hot searches about the Golden Horse Awards.

"Reprinted from The Hollywood Journal: Yesterday at 10am, Marvel and Sony jointly held a press conference on the development plan of the big IP 'Spider-Man'. Both parties announced at the press conference that they will cooperate in the development of the Spider-Man series of movies in the future."

"Director Chen Fei made a surprise appearance at the press conference and revealed that the latest Spider-Man series of movies will revolve around the word 'hero', namely 'Homecoming', 'Far From Home' and the final big easter egg 'No Return of Heroes'!"

"It is reported that in the upcoming Avengers 3, Spider-Man as a high school student will also make a grand appearance and officially join the Avengers family..."

After years of development, the Marvel series of films has already accumulated a large number of fans around the world.

Now, with Marvel and Sony officially reaching a cooperation, and will launch a new "Spider-Man" series of movies, as well as the announcement that Spider-Man will join the Avengers family, it immediately caused a huge sensation around the world!
Marvel fans in mainland China are almost going crazy with joy at this moment. Looking around, everyone on the Internet is praising Chen Fei.

"Director Chen is awesome! He actually got the copyright of Spider-Man back!"

"A brand new Spider-Man movie? And Director Chen himself is involved in the adaptation? Holy crap! I'm instantly excited!"

"So Avengers 3 is about to be released? And Spider-Man will be in it? Wow, Director Chen is going to make a splash!"

For several days in a row, there has been constant discussion online about "Spider-Man", "Marvel" and "The Avengers", to the point that many domestic films that are about to be released in mainland theaters during the Lunar New Year holiday have been filled with complaints.

The main creative members of the "Old Cannon" crew haven't smiled for several days.

Originally they were planning to use the popularity of winning the Golden Horse Awards for a big publicity spree, but they never expected that they would be "intercepted" by news from Hollywood.

It was not until the last day of November that the popularity of "Spider-Man" finally disappeared from the major hot searches and headlines.

However, among the many new hot searches that "appeared one after another", "Mr. Six" simply couldn't find a chance to stand out.

"Operation Mekong, a crime and action film co-produced by Feiyue Films, China Film Group, Shanghai Film Group, Wanda, Light Media, Golden Shield and other companies, with Chen Fei as the director and lead actor, and starring Zhang Hanyu, Li Bingbing, Chen Baoguo, Xie Miao, Liu Shishi and others, officially opened for 60 days yesterday, with a total box office of 36.58 billion!"

"The crime film "I Am a Witness", co-invested by Jiaxing Media and starring Yang Mi and Lu Han, has been completely withdrawn from theaters yesterday due to exhaustion of its box office potential, with a total box office of 2.14 million yuan."

"The auditions for the main theme movie "The Founding of an Army" have ended, and the cast was officially announced at 9 a.m. today: Liu Ye, Zhu Yawen, Huang Zhizhong, Wang Jingchun, Ou Hao, Liu Haoran, Ma Tianyu, Zhang Yixing and other actors will join the filming."

"The Hollywood blockbuster "Geostorm" has been completely withdrawn from domestic theaters due to the expiration of the key, and the total box office revenue was reported to be 8.86 million yuan."

"Yesterday at 8pm, the top IP TV series "The Legend of Qin", produced by Tangren Films and starring Lu Yi, Michelle Chen, Jiang Jinfu, Sun Yizhou, Jin Chen and others, officially replaced "The Legend of Yun Xi" and was broadcast on Mango TV's Diamond Exclusive Theater."

"According to relevant sources, the contract termination lawsuit between actor Jiang Jinfu and Tangren has entered the judicial decision stage. The former currently refuses to attend any promotional activities related to "The Legend of Qin". Tangren said it will pursue his legal responsibility..."

The hot searches that appeared one after another attracted countless people's attention.

Looking around, most netizens are just watching the show, waiting to see the termination of the contract between Tangren and Jiang Jinfu.

However, colleagues in the industry are all focusing on the box office of "Operation Mekong".

When the number 36.58 billion appeared, all the film and television companies in the entire industry were silenced.

Even Hua Yi, who was always good at bragging, was silent now.

Even though they are very confident in "Mr. Six", they only dare to boast that the box office of their movie can exceed 10 billion...the highest is only 15 billion.

But looking back at Feiyue Film and Television, it directly produced a movie that grossed 36.58 billion yuan.

How can I catch up with this horse? Even if I wear my shoes out, I can't catch up!
