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

Chapter 891 Falling out?!
At around 8 o'clock in the evening on the 11th, the plane from Hengdian to the capital officially landed.

Early in the morning on the 9th, Chen Fei did not follow Liu Yifei's example and stay in bed, but went straight to the company.

After arriving at the company and getting into the elevator, he did not go to the floor where his office was, but came to the floor where Su Guohai's office was.

As soon as he pushed the door open and walked in, Su Guohai stood up from behind his desk, greeted him with a smile, and said hello: "Director Chen, you're back."

"Yeah." Fade Chen nodded slightly and asked expectantly, "Did Guo Fan come to the company yesterday?"

"Yes." Su Guohai responded, turned back to his desk, and moved out a thick stack of documents from the safe underneath.

"He sent this yesterday. It's about the storyboards for The Wandering Earth, as well as the detailed production process and shooting plan, and a comprehensive schedule based on shots..."

As he spoke, Su Guohai opened a small box on top of the documents and took out a USB flash drive.

He plugged it into the computer and continued to introduce: "This is a 30-minute dynamic preview that he made himself."

Chen Fei looked at the thick pile of information in front of him and couldn't help but be a little surprised: "There are so many preliminary preparation materials?"

"This is just a part of it." Su Guohai said with some emotion: "In addition to these materials, there are also many concept drawings of props, such as exoskeleton armor, protective clothing, engine thrusters, etc. There are more than a thousand drawings."

Fade Chen pointed to the information in front of him and said, "Are they all here?"

Su Guohai shook his head: "The prop drawings have been sent to the props team, and some have been taken away by the special effects team. If nothing unexpected happens, they should be studying whether we can make the props in the drawings based on our current technology."

Chen Fei couldn't help but laugh: "Guo Fan has been in seclusion for two years, which has increased the difficulty of the special effects and props team."

"Mr. Chen, from what I heard from Guo Fan, he seems to want to build the set and select the actors himself, and is ready to follow up on this science fiction project from beginning to end."

"Yes, it's rare that he has this idea, we should support him."

As he was talking, Fade Chen suddenly remembered the film and television city project he had negotiated with the local government in Shanxi Province.

After thinking for a moment, he directly instructed: "When you have time, go and inform Guo Fan. Since he wants to follow the whole process, I will give him this opportunity.

It just so happened that the land for the film and television city project in Shanxi Province had already been approved, so we might as well let the crew of "The Wandering Earth" move in directly.

This time, let’s learn from Brother Chen Kai and build a city for each movie. This way, we don’t have to bother dismantling the built scenes in the later stages, and they can be used for tourists and fans to play and visit…”

When it comes to the film and television city project, Chen Fei really admires Mayor Geng!
As soon as the preliminary planning of the project was completed, his supporting plan followed up.

A special subsidy of 50 billion yuan for film and television, plus a cash subsidy of 40% of the production costs, these two subsidies alone are enough to attract the attention of a large number of film companies.

Since the local welfare is so good, Chen Fei naturally has no reason to refuse.

It just so happens that "The Wandering Earth" needs a large enough venue to set the scene, so why not choose your hometown?
At this time, after listening to Chen Fei's words, Su Guohai responded without hesitation: "Okay, I'll go inform him right away. He said before that Oriental Movie Metropolis is quite suitable. It seems that we have to change our target this time."

In fact, if there was no Shanxi Film and Television City project, Oriental Movie Metropolis would indeed be the best choice. After all, the equipment there is the latest and much better than those in Hengdian and Huairou!

But now that there are better options, it is natural to choose the best.

After talking about The Wandering Earth, Su Guohai mentioned the follow-up arrangements for Detective Chinatown 2: "Mr. Chen, which release date do you think is more suitable for this movie?"

As we all know, the best choice for the release of big-budget movies is naturally the "big schedule".

Now, the only four major periods that can be called "big periods" are the Spring Festival, summer vacation, National Day and New Year's Day.

Given that the 2016 Spring Festival period has passed, the only options left are summer vacation, National Day and New Year's Day.

Fade Chen thought for a moment and murmured, "It seems that our company has quite a lot of movies planned to be released this year?"

"Yes, that's right." Su Guohai said simply, "There is a movie Chasing the Dragon in cooperation with Golden Harvest on the 5.1 schedule, and then there are Detective Chinatown 2, Ghost Blows Out the Light: The Temple of Kunlun, Operation Red Sea, and Zhu Xian."

"Zhu Xian will be put on hold for now. We have to wait for Ali. After all, there is still a bet going on."

Chen Fei quickly came up with a plan in his mind: "Try not to overlap the other three movies. We can't do stupid things like killing each other.

Since the post-production of Detective Chinatown 2 has been completed first, let it go to the summer vacation, and the other two films can be discussed after the post-production is completed. "

Su Guohai frowned slightly and said, "If it goes to the summer vacation period, it will collide with Bona's "Legend of the Gods"."

"That's what I'm doing, 'Legend of the Gods'!"

Chen Fei is very confident that "Detective Chinatown 2" will definitely be a big hit during the summer vacation!

As for "Legend of the Gods", although it seems to be boasting loudly now, it is said that the minimum box office is 20 billion+ and the target is 30 billion+.

But after the movie is released, netizens will naturally find out that they are probably being deceived by Yu Dong!
After spending a whole morning in Su Guohai's office, near noon, Chen Fei finally received a WeChat message from Liu Yifei who had just woken up.

Miss Liu, who had slept so much that she had no mood to get up, finally got up and started to call Chen Fei to go out to find food together.

After replying to the message, Fade Chen stood up from the sofa and said, "Okay, let's stop here for today. There will be a celebration party for The Mermaid tonight. Remember to join us and invite more people so that we can have fun together."

"Okay." Su Guohai nodded slightly. Just as he was about to send Chen Fei out, he suddenly thought of another thing: "By the way, Mr. Chen, are we going to make The Wandering Earth ourselves, or are we going to find other companies to cooperate with us?"

Chen Fei responded without hesitation: "It's better to share this big cake with others. If you eat alone for too long, you will be targeted."

Upon hearing this, Su Guohai immediately understood that companies such as Light Media, Shanghai Film Group, and Wanda were going to enjoy the benefits again.

But at this moment, he suddenly thought of another state-owned enterprise, and then continued to ask: "What about China Film? Are you still taking them this time?"

Fade Chen paused, thought for a moment, and then slowly shook his head and said, "Forget it. Mr. La is no longer on the same side as us."

In his opinion, from the moment La Peikang and Jiang Zhiqiang went to the General Administration together, the two sides could have parted ways.

At this moment, Han Sanping's value is still increasing.

"But isn't it too few to have only one state-owned enterprise, Shanghai Film Group? Director Ren is from the south, and we are in the north. If we encounter any problems, they may be out of reach!"

This is indeed a problem, but for Feiyue Films now, it is not a big problem.

Thinking of people like "Tong Gang" and "Zhang Hong" in his mind, Fade Chen smiled and said casually, "As the saying goes, there is always a way out when the car reaches the mountain. Let's talk about it after the problem occurs."

……

The time soon came to evening.

On the way to the celebration dinner for "The Mermaid", Chen Fei noticed that Weibo had started to become lively.

Many filmmakers, actors, and celebrities posted photos of themselves heading to the banquet hall of the State Guesthouse to attend the celebration banquet for "The Mermaid" to attract attention from the outside world.

With a box office revenue of 34.12 billion, tonight's event is destined to be a scene full of big names and stars.

At this moment, Chen Fei suddenly recalled the scene when the celebration banquet was held after "The Martian" broke the 30 billion box office.

Looking back, almost half of the stars in the entertainment industry came! It was like a grand film festival event!
In comparison, "Operation Mekong" is not that exaggerated. After all, the latter is a mainstream theme movie, and it is impossible to hold a grand celebration banquet.

But "The Mermaid" is different, it's a commercial film.

Besides, La Peikang was a man who loved to show off, so naturally he wanted to make things as lively as possible. Otherwise, how could he highlight his political achievements?
"Chen Fei, look, it's the Shanghai Film Studio's car."

At the traffic light, Liu Yifei suddenly pointed out of the car window.

Chen Fei subconsciously looked in the direction of her finger, and saw that the window of a Mercedes-Benz car next to him was half-lowered, and Ren Zhonglun was holding a cigar in one hand and puffing out smoke.

Seeing this, he immediately rolled down the window and shouted over there, "Hey? Mr. Ren, you're in a good mood!"

Hearing someone calling his name outside the window, Ren Zhonglun subconsciously looked outside.

When he saw Chen Fei, he immediately laughed: "Hahaha, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to run into you on the road."

"Haha, this is called fate."

Before the two could chat a few more words, the red light suddenly turned green.

The driver on Chen Fei's side reacted quickly and drove out first.

When the two cars were parallel, Chen Fei looked through Ren Zhonglun's car window and saw Chen Long sitting in the back seat with a cigar between his fingers.

The two smiled at each other and didn't say much.

With the car window half rolled up, Ren Zhonglun looked at the Rolls-Royce merging into the traffic ahead and said with some emotion: "It's true that the younger generation is pushing the older generation forward! He has such strength at such a young age, which is beyond the reach of others."

Chen Long sighed: "Alas, Zu Ming is actually two years older than Chen Fei, but there is no comparison between the two."

Ren Zhonglun understood that Chen Long was reminded of his sad past, so he immediately changed the subject: "Railroad Tigers has passed the review, and I plan to release it during the Lunar New Year holiday. What do you think?"

Talking about this, Chen Long's mood did indeed improve a lot.

"Okay, let's do it during the Lunar New Year. Kung Fu Yoga has already been confirmed to be released during the Spring Festival, so the two movies can be released at the same time. It's just the publicity..." "You don't have to worry about that." Ren Zhonglun assured solemnly, "Everything is under your control. I can guarantee that before the movie is released, the audience will never know that Zu Ming is the second male lead in this movie.

As for the public opinion after the release, Shanghai Film Group will try its best to suppress it.”

Chen Long immediately responded: "I will also help here."

……

At seven o'clock, Chen Fei and Liu Yifei stepped onto the red carpet of the celebration dinner of "The Mermaid" on time.

As expected, as soon as the two of them appeared, they caused cheers from the audience!

"It's really lively tonight!" Liu Yifei was slightly surprised when she saw the huge number of media, paparazzi and fans on both sides of the red carpet.

"Of course." Chen Fei smiled and said, "Tonight is probably the time when the most celebrities gather in the first half of the year, so it will naturally be very lively."

As they were talking, the two had already walked the entire red carpet and arrived at the banquet hall of the State Guesthouse.

"Sister Yifei!"

As soon as they entered the door, Han Jianu ran over and abducted Liu Yifei.

"This damn girl doesn't act like a girl at all!"

Han Sanping complained about her daughter helplessly, and then greeted Chen Fei: "La La Land has stopped?"

"Yeah." Chen Fei nodded and asked him, "What about The Founding of an Army? Has it stopped too?"

"Well, I'm almost done with filming here, and I'm currently reshooting some scenes."

As they were talking, many people gathered around them.

"Third Master, Director Chen."

Jiang Wen looked carefree. After saying hello, he started talking about the mistakes he made while filming "One Step Away", hoping that Chen Fei could learn from it.

Han Sanping chimed in from time to time, her words full of curiosity and confusion about musical-themed movies.

Like most people, he was not optimistic about Chen Fei's musical. After all, there seemed to be no successful musical film in Chinese films.

As they chatted, the number of guests in the banquet hall began to increase, and major film and television companies arrived one after another.

Among them, the largest number of people came from Huayi. In addition to the two brothers of the Wang family, Feng Xiaogang, Guan Hu, Gu Changwei, Xu Ke and others were there.

And when Ye Ning also appeared behind the Huayi group, many people in the venue turned their eyes to Wanda's camp, secretly expecting a tit-for-tat confrontation between the two sides.

But unfortunately, the two sides just looked at each other and then quietly looked away, with no intention of making any contact.

Actually, it’s quite normal if you think about it. If you really quarrel in a place like this, it would be a joke.

However, at this moment, a "dramatic" scene appeared!
Under the attention of many people at the scene, the people from the Emperor Entertainment Group, led by Jiang Zhiqiang, suddenly moved, and their target was exactly where Chen Fei was!

In an instant, everyone's eyes were focused on him.

Although there have been many hot searches on Weibo in recent days, the most discussed issue in the industry is actually the fact that Emperor Entertainment Group was tricked by Pan Asia Cinemas.

The former indirectly promoted the speed of the General Administration's policy implementation, broke the ban on Pan Asia Cinemas, and allowed films produced by the company to be shown again in hundreds of theaters under Pan Asia Cinemas.

But the latter was not a pushover and he actually used the trick of "cutting off the fuel from under the cauldron"!
For three consecutive days, the screening data given by Pan Asia Cinemas to "My Agent Grandpa" dropped from 1.0% to 0.7%, and then to 0.5% yesterday... and the screenings of this movie were concentrated in the second half of the night.

This move directly broke the defense of Enlight Entertainment.

Although Jiang Zhiqiang got his wish and had the movies produced by his own company released in the Pan Asia Cinema Line, the box office results did not increase but decreased, and it was getting worse and worse, which made him very angry.

Now, looking at his aggressive state, he seems to be ready to "raise an army to hold someone accountable".

For a moment, everyone in the banquet hall subconsciously moved closer, as if they were ready to watch the fun.

"Boss Chen!" Jiang Zhiqi walked quickly to Fade Chen, narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a deep voice: "You people from Feiyue Film and Television are so rude. When I went to visit you yesterday, you didn't even let me in."

Chen Fei raised his lips slightly, crossed his arms over his chest, and looked down at him: "This is what I specifically ordered."

Jiang Zhiqiang was slightly stunned, obviously not expecting that Chen Fei would say it so bluntly.

As more and more people gathered around, he naturally didn't want to lose momentum, so he immediately asked angrily: "What does Mr. Chen mean by this?"

Fade Chen still looked at him calmly: "It's nothing, I just don't welcome you."

Seeing his chairman being humiliated, a senior executive next to Jiang Zhiqiang stood up immediately in displeasure: "Boss Chen? It's better to resolve a feud than to create one. Just make it up. If we really quarrel, it will be embarrassing for everyone."

Fade Chen didn't reply, and didn't even look at him.

At this moment, Su Guohai's cold voice slowly sounded: "Who do you think you are? Still tearing your face apart? Are you worthy?"

The atmosphere suddenly became cold, and more and more people chose to gather around at this moment.

If you look carefully, you can find that in a very short time, the scene begins to become clearly divided!
The first-tier film and television entertainment companies, led by Huayi, Bona, LeTV, and Alibaba, have chosen to stand on the sidelines and watch the excitement. Behind them are also many bosses of second-tier film and television agencies and artist studios, such as Tangren, Huace, Jiaxing, etc.

Behind Enlight Pictures are some small film and television agency companies from Hong Kong, as well as some film and television agency and entertainment companies from Taiwan.

On the other hand, behind Chen Fei, the executives of several large companies such as Wanda, Guangxian, Shanghai Film, Emperor Entertainment Group, and Golden Harvest have already chosen their standing positions. Liu Xiaobin, Wang Changtian, Ren Zhonglun, Yang Shoucheng, and Huo Qigang have all gathered behind Chen Fei, staring at Jiang Zhiqiang opposite them with playful eyes.

Han Sanping and Jiang Wen did not choose to leave, but stood silently beside Chen Fei.

As time went by, Gu Yongqiang, Jia Zhangke, Zhong Lifang, Jiang Xuerou, Chen Guofu, Ning Hao, Guo Fan, Lu Yang and others gathered together, their sharp eyes directed at the group of people from Enlight Pictures.

Liu Yifei and Han Jianu also squeezed into the crowd and stood behind Chen Fei.

Lu Zheng did not choose to watch the fun, but led Jing Tian to stand over.

As for the contracted artists of Feiyinghuang Agency, as well as those who chose to set up artist studios but are still affiliated with Feiyue Film and Television, such as Wang Baoqiang, Zhang Yi, Zhao Liying, Zhao Wenzhuo, Hu Ge and others, they all came to the rear of Chen Fei's camp and completed their lineup.

Chen Fei raised the corner of his mouth slightly, stared at Jiang Zhiqiang leisurely, and asked in a sarcastic tone:

"I didn't hear clearly what Director Jiang said just now. What did you want to tear apart? How about you say it again?"

Hearing this, for a moment, Jiang Zhiqiang felt the pressure in his heart soaring, his heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and his breathing became much more rapid!
Given the current situation, if a fight really breaks out, they will all be trampled to death by the opposing team!

Of course, a fight is definitely not going to happen. What is going on now is just a competition of connections and energy.

It is obvious that Enlightenment Films has failed miserably!
After realizing that he had no chance of winning by force, Jiang Zhiqiang immediately looked towards La Peikang in the crowd for help.

In the crowd, La Peikang suddenly became angry, because he had never thought that Jiang Zhiqiang would question Chen Fei in such a situation today.

Today is a grand gathering of the mainland film and television circles. Choosing to provoke Feiyue Film and Television at this time, isn't this seeking death?

Their allies are spread all over the mainland film and television circles. How can a Hong Kong film company like yours compare to them?
Times have changed a long time ago. Do you really think it is still the same as before 05?

La Peikang originally didn't want to get involved in this matter, but things had come to this point and he had long been inextricably linked with Emperor Entertainment Group, so he had no choice but to come forward.

After all, in the subconscious of many people, Emperor Motion Pictures has already been regarded as the "little brother" of China Film.

This can be analyzed from the fact that Jiang Zhiqiang has been promoting in the circle that "Monster Hunt 2" will be jointly produced and distributed by Emperor Entertainment Group and China Film Group.

Thoughts were swirling in his mind. After a moment, La Peikang stood up with a smile and tried to smooth things over: "Why are you all gathered here? The celebration party for "The Mermaid" is about to begin. Hurry and take your seats!"

Seeing this, Jiang Zhiqiang quickly took advantage of the situation and said, "Haha, I haven't had time to congratulate Mr. La yet. The box office of "The Mermaid" is 34 billion, which is a milestone for Chinese-language films..."

Many people around were trying to hold back their laughter.

Han Jianv even muttered in a low voice: "Why is this old guy talking nonsense? Isn't the box office milestone of Chinese-language films 36.58 billion for Operation Mekong?"

Han Sanping slapped her daughter on the back of her head: "You are the only one who talks too much! Hurry up and take your seat."

The atmosphere at the scene became hot again, but if you look closely, you can still find that many people are looking at Chen Fei with admiration and respect in their eyes, and even a hint of fear.

But when looking at Jiang Zhiqiang, most people had a hint of contempt and disdain in their eyes.

The idiom "overestimating one's own capabilities" was vividly demonstrated at today's celebration dinner for "The Mermaid", and Jiang Zhiqiang, the person involved, was so embarrassed that he threw his face into the sewer.

On the other hand, Chen Fei really showed off his powerful muscles and let the outside world know what a true "leading company" is!
Even Huayi, which usually regards itself as a "leading enterprise", cannot gather such a strong lineup of allies and corporate strength, let alone other companies.
