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

Chapter 900 Unilateral Termination of Cooperation! Feiyue Film and Television does not owe China Film Group anything!
"'A Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix' has set a new record at the box office. Yesterday's new box office totaled 1469 million. It is reported that many cinema chains, including China Film, have raised their average screening data as appropriate."

"Due to the exhaustion of its box office potential, 'The Journey to the West' has been withdrawn from theaters, with a total box office of 3469 million."

"The Hollywood blockbuster The Jungle Book was officially taken off the screen yesterday, with a total box office of 9.76 million yuan."

"Captain America 3," a sci-fi and adventure film directed by the Russo brothers and starring Chris Evans, Robert Downey Jr., Scarlett Johansson and others, was released in China for a week and grossed a total of 6.67 million yuan, successfully surpassing Chasing the Dragon..."

"The Hollywood blockbuster "48 Hours" officially launched its domestic release plan today, and will compete on the same stage with the love movie "Goodbye, Never See You Again" starring Chen Bailin and Jiang Wenli!"

……

The 13th was quite lively, with all kinds of entertainment news flooding Weibo, which was quite overwhelming.

Chen Fei saw that many people were complaining about Jiang Wenli, saying that she had also learned from Aunt Liu Xiaoqing and started to play the role of an old cow eating young grass in film and television dramas.

The former likes to partner with young and handsome male actors, and the latter seems to be no less so.

I just wonder who of these two is more skilled in private?
In fact, in Chen Fei's opinion, the two should be able to end in a draw.

After all, Liu Xiaoqing is a person who can make Jiang Wen completely bewildered, and Jiang Wenli can go to Europe for a "honeymoon" with Huang Xuan while maintaining her marriage to Gu Changwei.

I have to say, the lives of these two aunt-generation actresses are simply colorful!
One night passed, and when the time came to the 14th, an announcement from Feiyue Film and Television caused quite a stir in the circle.

"The anti-corruption drama "In the Name of the People", which was produced by the Supreme People's Procuratorate, Golden Shield, the Navy and other units, and Feiyue Films, with Chen Fei as producer, Kang Honglei as director, Zhou Meisen as screenwriter, and Bao Jianfeng, Zhang Zhijian, Wu Gang, Zhang Fengyi, Xu Yajun, Ke Lan and others as the leading actors, was officially announced to be completed in Shandong Province today!"

Since the script of "In the Name of People" was initially rejected by several companies for investment, there are many people in the industry who know the content of the script.

It is precisely because of this that everyone was very surprised that Feiyue Film and Television dared to take the initiative to undertake the production task of this TV series and actually filmed it!
"I have to say that Chen Fei is really courageous. Most film and television company bosses would probably back off after seeing the name In the Name of People."

Sitting on the sofa in the living room of Han Sanping's house, La Peikang was amazed, with a hint of admiration in his tone.

The "mountain eagle" sitting opposite him responded calmly: "As long as he behaves uprightly, what is there to fear? Who can control him or dare to do anything to him?"

Hearing this, La Peikang was slightly stunned and felt inexplicably strange.

He always felt that there was something else behind Han Sanping's words, but for a moment he was not sure.

At this time, Han Jianu, who was sitting aside and responsible for making tea, seemed quite excited.

She also knew the content of the script "In the Name of People" and naturally knew what it told. It was a "earth-shattering" story!
In comparison, although the script she is currently writing is also quite "bold", there is still a certain gap compared to "In the Name of People".

Well, Feiyue Films even dared to shoot a drama like "In the Name of People", so there is no reason why they would not dare to shoot the script she wrote.

Thinking of this, she felt more and more confident.

"The script is almost finished. I'll revise it a few more times, and then show it to my senior brother after he finishes filming La La Land... Yeah, it's decided!"

Han Jianu was making plans in her mind when she heard La Peikang suddenly bring the topic to her.

"Jia Nu, I heard from your father that you are currently writing a new script. What is the subject matter? Do you want me to help you take a look? China Film Group can also support you."

"No, no." Han Jianu waved her hands repeatedly: "The script is not yet written, let's talk about it when the time comes."

"Heh." Han Sanping, who was standing by, took a sip of tea and casually complained about her own daughter: "You are so mysterious every day. If you don't know, you would think you wrote some shocking story."

Han Jianu snorted: "You'll know when I write it down. You'd better hold your chin up when the time comes!"

"Why are you holding your chin?" Han Sanping didn't react for a moment.

"Be careful or your jaw will drop!"

Han Sanping: "..."

“Hahahahaha!” La Peikang on the side laughed, “Remember to show it to me when the time comes. This kind of masterpiece deserves a good reward.”

The three of them chatted for a while, and after a while, Han Jianu prepared to get up and leave.

She knew that La Peikang came to see her father this time because he had something very important to say. As a junior, she could just come out and say hello and leave. There was no need for her to stay here and listen to what he was talking about.

"Uncle La, I have to go back and write the script, why don't you two chat?"

After saying hello, Han Jianu prepared to get up and leave.

However, at this moment, La Peikang's cell phone suddenly rang urgently!
……

Huayi.

Sitting on the chair in the office, Feng Xiaogang crossed his legs, looking relaxed and contented.

He has already sent the finished film of "I Am Not Madame Bovary" to the San Sebastian International Film Festival, and has already found relevant judges in advance. If nothing unexpected happens, it is sure to win one or two major awards.

He couldn't hide his excitement at the thought of the scene of himself receiving the award becoming popular on the Internet again.

At this moment, the voices of Wang Zhonglei and Ye Ning's conversation suddenly rang in his ears.

"Mr. Ye, what do you think of the script of "Youth"? "

“The story is great. I’ve read the first draft before and was astounded at the time. This refined version is even more exciting…”

Feng Xiaogang added: "Haha, I'm really proud that Mr. Ye praised me like that."

"Hey! Director Feng's talent is recognized by the industry. I am just stating a fact."

The three of them were chatting animatedly, and during the conversation they had already determined the subsequent preparations and arrangements.

Feng Xiaogang said: "I plan to submit the script for review in a few days, and then start following up on the casting plan and arrangements. The casting work must be completed by August at the latest, and the actors will be arranged to train, read the script, and rehearse the dance.

Then, after I Am Not Madame Bovary was released, I immediately started filming this movie.”

Wang Zhonglei responded without hesitation: "Okay, sure. Huayi will fully support you."

Ye Ning followed up with a smile and said, "When Youth comes out, it will definitely cause a sensation in the industry!"

"Haha, then I'll borrow Mr. Ye's good words."

However, just as the three were chatting animatedly, there was a sudden knock on the office door.

"Enter!"

As Ye Ning's voice rang out, the door opened and the secretary walked in quickly.

"Hurry up, what happened?"

"Director Wang, President Ye, Director Feng." The secretary greeted them first, and then explained, "Look online, Feiyue Films has launched a new film project!"

"what?"

Upon hearing this, the three of them took out their phones almost at the same time and opened Weibo.

……

As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy can sometimes become my friend.

For example, in the Bona conference room now, Yu Dong and Jiang Zhiqiang are sitting opposite each other, talking happily, and there is an atmosphere of a meeting between close friends.

Of course, they couldn't be the only two in the huge conference room. Also present were Song Ge, the president of Jingxi Cultural Tourism Company, and Wuershan from Hohhot, Inner Mongolia.

Today's meeting was actually organized by Song Ge.

As the boss of Jingxi Culture and Tourism Company, he has dabbled in many areas of the film and television industry and can be considered a considerable investor.

Today, the reason why he organized this meeting was mainly for a film project, which originated from Tencent's "Fengshen Trilogy".

By 2014, he had already taken control of the project and began the long preparation phase of building a team.

Through the introduction of a middleman of great importance, he got to know Wu Ershan.

The latter happened to be particularly fond of the Fengshen story and had always wanted to present it as a mythological epic film.

As soon as the two met, it was like firewood meeting fire, and a chemical reaction occurred instantly.

After two years of preparation, Wu Ershan led the screenwriter team to briefly refine the vast material of the original work and pioneered the use of a "trilogy" narrative structure in which a single film is an independent film and three parts constitute a complete story.

This structure not only fills the gap in the Chinese mythological epic genre, but also formally opens up a mythological world where humans, immortals, and demons coexist with contemporary film language, technology, and interpretation.

Song Ge was very satisfied with the script, and he and Wu Ershan immediately hit it off and prepared to find suitable investors to formally implement the project.

In order to maximize the benefits of relevant policies, Song Ge plans to make this film a co-production between the mainland and Hong Kong.

It just so happened that he was very familiar with Jiang Zhiqiang and the two had collaborated many times, so Emperor Entertainment Group naturally became one of his targets.

As for the mainland, he chose Bona Film Group. The main reason for choosing Bona Film Group was that Yu Dong had previously invested in a film called "Legend of the Gods".

Therefore, in Song Ge's opinion, Yu Dong should be a person who "knows the goods". After all, it is quite difficult for ordinary people to accept the "Fengshen" system, and experienced people will naturally have a higher degree of acceptance.

The meeting had been going on for more than half an hour, and Wu Ershan had already finished explaining the story and overall structure of the film.

Song Ge cleared his throat and spoke loudly: "In order to highlight the grand scenes, the big cast, and the grand background, my plan for the "Investiture of the Gods Trilogy" is to invest 10 billion in each film! A total cost of 30 billion! We want to make a real big-investment movie! The benchmark is Hollywood! Not the mainland!"

When these words were spoken, Yu Dong and Jiang Zhiqiang were suddenly confused.

A movie costs 10 billion? Isn't that a bit too much?

"Mr. Song?" Yu Dong asked doubtfully, "With such a high cost, can we make back our investment? If we lose money..."

"Please don't say such discouraging words, Director Yu." Song Ge explained confidently, "There are already three domestic films with a box office of 30 billion yuan, and the box office data of the film market is increasing by 30% every year.

The first film in the "Fengshen" series will be released in five or six years at the earliest. By that time, the domestic box office may have entered the 50 billion era.

And our minimum goal is only 30 billion. Is that difficult?"

Jiang Zhiqiang thought about it and expressed his approval: "If it is five or six years later, then 30 billion is indeed not difficult."

You know, he has already set the expected box office for "Monster Hunt 2" at 35 billion, while "Fengshen" is only 30 billion, which is not difficult at all.

With a cost of 10 billion invested, coupled with such a good movie structure and story, the possibility of success is extremely high!
Seeing that Yu Dong seemed to be still hesitant, Song Ge used his eloquence to persuade him again.

"Isn't Bona going to return to the A-share market? A film with an investment cost of 10 billion should be able to help the stock market, right? And I heard that Alibaba Pictures seems to have reached a strategic cooperation with Bona. They are very rich. I don't mind having a few more investors..."

After some persuasion, Yu Dong was inevitably moved.

He swallowed his saliva and gritted his teeth and said, "In that case, I will join Director Song and Director Wu in a gamble!"

As soon as the words fell, laughter suddenly broke out in the conference room.

"Director Yu, Director Jiang, I wish us a pleasant cooperation... Director Wu will be in charge of this project. I selected him after careful selection, and he will definitely not let you down..."

A few of them chatted for a while, and soon agreed to go out and celebrate tonight.

However, just as the door of the conference room opened, the secretary who had been waiting outside the door quickly handed the tablet computer to Yu Dong.

"Director Yu, please check the news. There is new news from Feiyue Films!"

……

In the eyes of many people in the film and television industry, today is actually quite lively.

A large number of movies such as "A Hundred Birds Paying Homage to the Phoenix", "Captain America 3", "48 Hours of Inception", "Goodbye, Never See You Again", "Chasing the Dragon" and so on are being screened and competing for the hot search list.

Then, the filming of "In the Name of People" was completed, which triggered a wave of heated discussion.

But what no one expected was that the real depth bomb was still waiting behind!
At 10 o'clock in the morning, a public notice from the Film Bureau and a joint announcement from several film and television companies directly topped the Weibo hot search list and successfully landed on the headlines of major entertainment sections!
"Reprinted from the official website of the Film Bureau: The film script "The Wandering Earth", which is controlled by Feiyue Film and co-produced by Xiying, Wanda, Shanghai Film, Guangguang, and the Space Administration, with an investment cost of up to 6 million yuan, is adapted from Liu Cixin's novel of the same name. It has been successfully filed and approved for project establishment."

"Feiyue Films released an announcement: Chen Fei will be the producer of "The Wandering Earth", and director Guo Fan will once again take charge, leading the Chinese science fiction film to continue to set sail!"

"Previously, Gravity and The Martian, directed by Director Guo Fan, successfully set new records for Chinese-language film box office performance with box office results of 16.57 billion and 32.69 billion respectively. Now, after several years, Director Guo Fan is back with a science fiction film. Please look forward to his wonderful performance!"

"The Shanxi Provincial Department of Culture and Tourism issued an announcement stating that in order to cooperate with the filming of "The Wandering Earth", a supporting filming base will be built for it, with an estimated investment of no less than 10 billion yuan!"

"The casting for The Wandering Earth will officially start today. All major actors and agencies are welcome to submit their resumes and participate in the auditions..."

As news releases appeared on the Internet one after another, the entire entertainment industry was stunned by this "big cake"!
An investment of 6 million yuan, controlled by Feiyue Films, produced by Chen Fei, directed by Guo Fan, a Chinese-language science fiction film, and a supporting film and television shooting base...

With the exposure of these key information, the industry seems to see that a 30 billion box office movie is about to be born!
"Gravity" and "The Martian" have already proved how strong the production lineup of "Guo Fan + Chen Fei" is. Now, the emergence of "The Wandering Earth" is undoubtedly sending a signal to the outside world:
Chinese-language films are about to hit the 40 billion box office!

All of a sudden, countless actors, agents, and agencies in the industry had their eyes shining, eager to pounce on this delicious piece of cake!
The rest of the film and television companies, without exception, began drooling over the product.

It is no exaggeration to say that if you can participate in this kind of project, it will be a guaranteed win, and there is even a great possibility of making a fortune, and even gaining both fame and fortune!
However, this kind of opportunity is not available to ordinary companies, because Feiyue Film and Television's allies have always been very fixed.

But at the same time, many people have discovered clues.

Although there is only one letter difference between Xiying and Zhongying, they represent two different companies!

The atmosphere in Han Sanping's living room has reached freezing point.

Han Jianu sat on the chair with her head slightly lowered, not daring to move, for fear of bringing about some major disaster.

But if you look closely, you can find that her ears are perked up very high, for fear of missing out on the details of the conversation between La Peikang and Chen Fei, so that she cannot eat the whole fresh melon.

~

After the initial shock, confusion, puzzlement and anger, La Peikang had temporarily calmed down. He was ready to have a calm communication with Chen Fei in an attempt to resolve some misunderstandings between the two sides.

"The Wandering Earth" has just been launched as a project, and China Film Group does not have no chance to continue to participate in it.

As soon as the call was connected, La Peikang suppressed the nameless anger in his heart and asked very patiently:
"Chen Fei, I just paid attention to Feiyue Film's new project "The Wandering Earth", especially the investment side. I am very confused. Why haven't I heard any news about the preparation of this Chinese science fiction film? Has China Film been completely excluded?"

The crew of "La La Land" is currently in a state of suspension of filming. The director has gone into the lounge and everyone can only wait.

At this time, except for Chen Fei, all other makeup artists and staff in the lounge had left.

Therefore, he does not need to avoid people when speaking.

"Boss La, you're kidding. Where does the word 'exclusion' come from? 'The Wandering Earth' is our own project. It seems to be our own right to choose who to invest in, right?"

After hearing this, La Peikang was speechless.

This is indeed the truth, and what Chen Fei said is not wrong, but the result should not be like this!
Ever since "Wolf Warrior 2" did not invite China Film to participate in the investment, La Peikang had a premonition that something was wrong with the relationship between the two parties.

Now that "The Wandering Earth" has been released, with the emergence of Western Film and the withdrawal of China Film, the situation has become obvious.

Feiyue Film and Television has unilaterally terminated its cooperation with China Film!

La Peikang was a little flustered, but his tone was still firm: "Chen Fei, the existence of China Film is necessary, because without the help of China Film, some of the problems encountered in the preparation and shooting of large-scale science fiction films will be very difficult to deal with... I think we need to sit down and talk, there may be some misunderstandings between you and me..."

"No need." Chen Fei's tone was calm, but with a strong sense of alienation: "China Film is not the only state-owned enterprise in China. Xi'an Film and Shanghai Film are enough to solve most of the problems. If things don't work, there is still the Space Administration to help."

"But……"

La Peikang wanted to continue speaking but was interrupted by Fade Chen.

"Boss La, if I heard you correctly, you just said that there are some misunderstandings between you and me, right?"

"That's right!" La Peikang quickly explained in a submissive manner: "Some things are not what you think. I actually have my own difficulties. You may feel that my actions were excessive at the time, but there are reasons for that. I will also try my best to make it up to you later..."

"hehe."

Chen Fei suddenly laughed out loud, with a hint of ridicule in his tone: "Boss La, you may not understand me. My family was poor when I was a child, so my grandfather always taught me to try not to conflict with others, to make big things small, and small things nothing...

But later I found that when I backed down and gave in, the people who bullied me would not stop. Instead, they thought I was easy to bully. Since I would not fight back anyway, there would be no consequences if they bullied me a few more times.

But what those who bullied me don’t know is that I actually hold grudges very hard, and I believe in the principle that revenge is never too late.

Lu Chuan’s comebacks failed several times, Huaxiaxing was delisted and liquidated, Bona rolled back from NASDAQ in disgrace, and Chengtian Entertainment fell from a first-tier entertainment company to a third-tier one…”

As Fade Chen spoke, the living room fell into dead silence!
Han Jianu kept swallowing her saliva and suddenly felt a little regretful for appearing here.

For some reason, she was inexplicably afraid that she would be "murdered to silence her" because she had heard too many secrets today that she shouldn't have heard!

At this time, La Peikang's face was already ashen and his ears were red!
He couldn't help himself after all, and asked, "Mr. Chen, do you mean that China Film Group has also become the one who bullied you?"

Chen Fei did not respond to his words, but suddenly changed the subject:
"In order to prevent being bullied, when I was a kid, I would try to make as many friends as possible while practicing martial arts. We would support each other, make progress together, and play with equality and respect. If he was bullied, I would help him, and if I was bullied, he would help me... We were equal, we owed nothing to each other, respected each other, and would not interfere with each other's way of playing..."

After hearing these words, La Peikang suddenly felt embarrassed.

He opened his mouth, wanting to say something in rebuttal, but when he thought about what he had done, he didn't know where to start.

Han Sanping, who was sitting opposite, listened to the conversation between the two silently without any intention of interrupting, but when he looked at La Peikang, there was a hint of regret in his eyes.

He was forced to step down from the position of Chairman of China Film Corporation, but now, the person who succeeded him obviously does not have the same ability to strategize as he did.

At the end of the call, Fade Chen calmly said to La Peikang:

"Boss La, you might as well think about it carefully. Feiyue Film and Television actually doesn't owe China Film anything. Boss Han should also understand this."

After saying that, he directly pressed the hang-up button, took the initiative to end the call, walked out of the lounge, and started the filming of "La La Land" again.
