It's reasonable for me, a stuntman, to live a crazy life, right?
Chapter 901: Three years in the east, three years in the west, don’t look down on the young and poor
Chapter 901: Don’t look down on the young and the poor!
In the living room, looking at the hung up phone, La Peikang's face changed, and an inexplicable anger surged in his heart!
But what made him helpless was that he had no place to vent this nameless anger, and he had no choice but to hold it in.
Chen Fei's words just now were like thunder in his ears, causing a ringing in his ears.
However, he had no way to refute it because every word the other party said was true, without any fabrication or nonsense.
He is that kind of person. For the sake of political achievements, he has begun to go crazy.
What partners? How can they be more important than one's own political achievements?
However, the result of the evolution to the present is that success or failure depends on political achievements!
The sentence "China Film Corporation is not the only state-owned enterprise in the film and television industry" completely confused him.
With the help of Xi'an Film Studio and Shanghai Film Studio, China Film Group is not irreplaceable.
The former's connections in the bureau are no worse than those of China Film, and the latter's resources are even comparable to those of China Film. With these two powerful forces joining forces, China Film has now become a burden that only takes benefits but does nothing!
After a long silence, La Peikang finally managed to suppress his fluctuating emotions.
He raised his head slightly and looked at Han Sanping who was sitting opposite him.
But before he could say anything, Han Sanping spoke up first: "I will not and cannot be the middleman to help you make peace with him."
There was a deep sense of doubt in La Peikang's eyes.
He was a little confused. Shouldn't Han Sanping be on the same side as him?
"Because this is your own choice. Even if I really come forward to help mediate, will you change? Can you guarantee that you can stand firmly behind Feiyue Films and be its backer?"
After hearing this, La Peikang was speechless.
Although he really wants to say that he "can do it", what he is doing now is proving that he can't.
Just as Chen Fei said, the status of both parties is now unequal... or in La Peikang's eyes, Feiyue Film and Television should be a vassal of China Film, rather than being on an equal footing.
Just like China Film Group and Emperor Entertainment Group, just like his relationship with Jiang Zhiqiang, the latter has always been respectful and humble to him, and that is what he wants.
But will Chen Fei do this?
He might have done so when he was weak, but now that he is strong enough, he is qualified to say "No" to China Film Corporation.
Unfortunately, La Peikang did not realize this.
In his opinion, China Film Group was the one that supported Feiyue Film and Television to grow, so Chen Fei must keep giving back.
But what he didn't know was that rather than saying that China Film Group supported Feiyue Film and Television, it was Han Sanping who supported Chen Fei when he was young.
As for La Peikang, he is at best just a person who enjoys the fruits. How can there be any feeling of "cultivation"?
Now that Chen Fei can choose to part ways with him in peace, instead of doing what Huayi did and stabbing China Film in the back, it is already a great respect for him!
"Director Han?"
La Peikang's tone was full of surprise and unwillingness.
"No need to say more, let's just leave it at that." Han Sanping shook her head, not wanting to talk about this topic with him.
He knew La Peikang's "ambitious" character too well, and it would be of no benefit for him to get involved in such matters.
In the past few years since his retirement, he has been paving the way for Han Jianu. Now that the road is almost completed, how could he possibly destroy the road himself?
If he really became the middleman, then what was the difference between this and La Peikang's previous attempt to be the middleman between Jiang Zhiqiang and Chen Fei?
La Peikang was silent for a moment. After realizing that Han Sanping would not stand up for him, he naturally gave up the idea of staying any longer.
He stood up slowly and said, "We'll talk about the publicity and promotion of The Founding of an Army later. China Film Group will definitely have a share in this."
After saying that, La Peikang turned around and walked out.
"Uncle La, I'll see you off." Han Jianu stood up tactfully and trotted after him.
A few minutes later, after watching the Audi go away, she returned to the living room, patting her chest as she walked, looking frightened.
"I thought they were going to have a big fight on the phone!"
Han Sanping couldn't help but roll her eyes at her silly daughter: "How is that possible? Don't you see who everyone is? This isn't a shrew swearing in the street or a vendor fighting over territory..."
"That's true." Han Jianu sat back on the sofa, looked at her father curiously, and continued to ask: "I just heard what Senior Brother Chen Fei said, it seems that from now on Feiyue Film and Television and China Film will completely part ways, right?"
Han Sanping nodded slightly: "Yeah, about the same."
As he spoke, his tone inexplicably became somewhat complicated: "Xiying is really lucky. He was originally on the decline, but he didn't expect to usher in a new dawn."
Han Jianu muttered quietly, "Uncle La is really something. If only he could learn from your 'mountain eagle' personality, then the situation wouldn't have turned into what it is now, and we wouldn't have lost a partner who could lay golden eggs for nothing."
"What did you say?"
"No...no..." Realizing that she seemed to have accidentally called her father's nickname, Han Jianu quickly got up and ran away: "Well, I'm going back to my room first. I haven't finished writing the script yet."
Seeing his daughter running away in a flash, Han Sanping shook his head helplessly.
"You are already an adult, why are you still acting like a child?"
Muttering to himself, he picked up his phone and was about to call Fade Chen, but after thinking it over he decided not to do so.
"Let's talk face to face after he comes back. Breaking up is breaking up, but we should just part ways amicably. Don't let things become like enemies. There's no need for that."
……
In the outside world, the topic of "The Wandering Earth" is still the subject of crazy heated discussion in the entire film and television industry.
It is no exaggeration to say that when this project was announced, within less than an hour, all the actors, big and small, in the entire film and television industry had a copy of the original novel in their hands.
After all, according to the announcement from Feiyue Films, this movie is open to the entire film and television industry for casting.
No matter whether you can be selected in the end, since you have such an opportunity, you must seize it firmly.
Even if you can't get the main role, it's good to have a chance to show your face.
However, unlike the excitement of the actors and their agencies, many film companies and film and television investors discovered "unexpected situations" in many details of the film.
"Wanda, Shanghai Film Group, and Guangguang are all regular partners of Feiyue Films. The Space Administration is also considered a semi-regular partner. But what about Xiying? Why did they suddenly appear?"
"I'm also very puzzled. Where is the Central Film Academy?"
"It seems that China Film Group was not in the previous movie Wolf Warrior 2, and now it is not in this big-budget movie The Wandering Earth either. This is a bit strange!"
"This situation probably started with Operation Red Sea. Since then, China Film Group has had less and less say, and now it has completely lost its share..."
"My goodness, are these two families going to fall out?"
At the dinner table, Yu Dong was secretly shocked by the conclusion he had come to.
Song Ge, who was sitting opposite, naturally knew about all this, and said with a hint of sarcasm in his tone: "When President Han was in office, Huayi and China Film went from being on good terms to parting ways, and now that President La is in office, they have broken up with Feiyue Films again.
These two are really magical. They both said goodbye to the private leaders in the industry. I don’t know what they were thinking.”
Yu Dong shrugged: "Who knows?"
Jiang Zhiqiang, who was sitting next to him, had some guesses in his mind, but he naturally wouldn't say it out loud. Instead, he was a little excited.
China Film Group and Feiyue Films have broken up, so doesn’t that mean that the relationship with Edko Films can be closer?
This will be of great benefit to my development in the mainland!
"Come on, Director Yu, Director Song, Director Wu, let's have a drink first. It doesn't matter if they had a falling out or not, as long as it doesn't affect our Investiture of the Gods."
"Haha, yes, that's right. Come, drink..."
After three rounds of drinks, Song Ge felt a little anxious and was the first to leave the box.
At this time, Yu Dong's eyes swept across Wu Ershan inconspicuously, and he also made an excuse that he needed to go to the toilet, and followed Song Ge out.
The two soon met in the restroom. Yu Dong did not talk about anything else, but got straight to the point and asked, "Director Song, I'm quite curious about the background of Director Wu. Isn't it a bit unsafe to let him take charge of such a big project as "The Investiture of the Gods Trilogy"?"
Wu Ershan's information was not a secret. Yu Dong had already asked his secretary to inquire about it.
Born in Hohhot, Inner Mongolia, he graduated from the Directing Department of Beijing Film Academy. He has won the "International Film Critics Award" at the Busan International Film Festival and the "Best Director Award" at the Geneva International Film Festival in Switzerland. His representative works include "Soap Opera" and "Blades of Smiles".
As for big-budget movies, there doesn't seem to be even one.
Isn't it a bit inappropriate for such a person to take over a big production like "Fengshen" right away?
However, at this time, Song Ge explained with a smile: "Regarding this point, Director Yu can rest assured. Although he has not directed a big-budget movie himself, he has served as an assistant director and producer for many big-budget movies.
For example, he can be seen in "Seven Swords", "Police Story 2013", "I Am Not Madame Bovary", and "Railroad Tigers".
Moreover, he was in charge of leading and creating the project of "Investiture of the Gods". No one else understands this project better than him. I can assure Mr. Yu, and this is actually what the above person meant."
"Above?" Yu Dong was quite surprised.
Song Ge lowered his voice and whispered: "Changshengtian..."
……
After a day of filming, Fade Chen just turned on his phone and heard the text message alert tone ringing.
There is no need to guess, these people are definitely here to inquire about the casting arrangements for "The Wandering Earth".
Unfortunately, these people will be disappointed, because Chen Fei has already promised Guo Fan that he will not interfere too much in this project.
From preparation to casting, Guo Fan will be responsible for everything.
After all, when filming "Gravity" and "The Martian", it was Chen Fei who guided him step by step along the way, and now it is time to test him.
"These people are so annoying. They all call me."
Liu Yifei pouted and looked at the missed calls and dense text messages on her mobile phone speechlessly.
Chen Fei stroked her smooth black hair with a smile and said jokingly, "You are the future boss of Feiyue Film and Television. If I convince you and let you persuade me, won't it be easy for me to get the role?"
Liu Yifei frowned slightly: "I won't do that. My acting skills are almost gone, and you still want to make a big-budget movie? You really have no shame."
"Oh?"
Chen Fei inexplicably found that these words were too targeted, and he couldn't help but ask curiously: "Who are you talking about?"
"Who else could it be? Jiang Yiyan." Liu Yifei turned on her phone and handed it to Chen Fei, still mumbling, "She has been harassing me these past few days, saying she wants to treat me to a meal and come to visit the set. She even wants to guest star in La La Land. It really annoys me."
Chen Fei lowered his eyes to look at the screen, and saw that Jiang Yiyan was constantly sending new messages to Liu Yifei. The words were full of flattery and various descriptions of classmate affection.
"Hasn't she retired from the entertainment industry? I remember Zhu Yawen said last time that she seemed to be in a relationship with a cake shop owner and was going to become the wife of a chain store owner?"
"We broke up some time ago." Liu Yifei curled her lips: "That cake shop wanted to become a high-end brand, and her image was not suitable at all, so she was given the job as the spokesperson."
"What about the teaching career?"
"That's fake too. The company just hyped her up. Do you think she's the kind of person who can go to the mountains to teach?"
Chen Fei was speechless.
Jiang Yiyan is a magical person. When she first debuted, she tried to curry favor with the powerful, hooking up with one person and then another.
As things have evolved to this point, he has ended up getting himself into trouble. He was taken advantage of for free and then dumped.
"Don't pay attention to her. If you don't like her, just block her. She is the one who brought this upon herself and doesn't deserve any sympathy."
Liu Yifei reached out to take back her phone and nodded gently, "I thought so too. Let her send messages if she wants. Anyway, I'm not going to reply to her messages."
……
The next day, a conference organized by the Film Bureau to discuss the development prospects of "main-theme films" officially kicked off in the capital.
Several state-owned enterprises, including Golden Shield, Navy, Air Force, and Bayi attended the seminar.
Li Chen, carrying a briefcase, followed the people from the Air Force Political Department and walked into the meeting room with his head held high.
He will also give a speech today and elaborate on some of his insights and experiences in the preparation process of "Sky Hunter".
As soon as he entered the room, he saw La Peikang standing at the door chatting with the person in charge of the Navy.
With a polite attitude, he stepped forward and said hello.
"Director La, Director Zhang..."
The two of them turned their heads subconsciously after hearing the sound.
The man from the Navy did not respond, but just nodded slightly at him, maintaining a slight sense of distance.
"Sky Hunter" has been claiming to surpass "Operation Red Sea", which makes the Navy Political Department very unhappy, but since they are all projects of brother units, they can't say anything publicly.
But privately, they didn't have much good feelings towards Li Chen.
However, La Peikang, as an investor of "Sky Hunter", was very friendly to Li Chen and chatted with him with a smile.
However, this "harmonious" atmosphere was soon interrupted.
Because Ren Zhonglun and the current chairman of Xiying, Wang Yong, walked in from outside the venue.
When the two saw La Peikang, they just looked at each other and then, as if they had agreed, forced the topic to be brought to "The Wandering Earth".
"Has Xiying approved the location for The Wandering Earth?"
"Haha, approved. We really support this movie. Oh! By the way, Director Ren will also cooperate with the filming, right?"
Ren Zhonglun also laughed and said, "Of course. After all, we are the most loyal partners of Feiyue Films. As long as there is any trouble over there, I will definitely help out.
Moreover, Shanghai Film Group’s attitude has always been very clear, unlike some companies that just lie there and suck blood without dealing with other issues, just like termites…”
In fact, Ren Zhonglun was able to vent his anger indirectly this time.
After all, he had been quite interested in "Sky Hunter" before, but due to La Peikang's obstruction, Shanghai Film Group was unable to get any share from it.
It would be fine if it was just normal competition. After all, Shanghai Film Group is located in Shanghai and does not have the advantage of China Film Group Corporation being close to the water and getting the moon first.
But what was really weird was that while Shanghai Film Group was blocked from participating, Amei Film and Television Culture Co., Ltd., founded by Fan Bingbing, actually announced that it had become one of the co-producers of "Sky Hunter"!
This made Ren Zhonglun very angry!
Could it be that Shanghai Film Group is not as good as a second-rate film and television company?
Although China Film Group is powerful, it cannot bully others like this!
Now, the "The Wandering Earth" project has been officially announced, and China Film Group was kicked out this time.
For Ren Zhonglun, this feeling is simply too great!
Especially when looking at La Peikang's darkened face, he felt as if he had drunk a bottle of ice cola in the hottest days of summer, and felt so refreshed all over!
~
Although projects such as "The Great Wall", "Journey to the West: The Demons Strike Back" and "Monster Hunt 2" gave La Peikang enough confidence, he couldn't help feeling depressed and annoyed when listening to the conversation between Ren Zhonglun and Wang Yong, and thinking about the various online analyses of China Film as well as the public opinions and heated discussions within the industry.
After giving Ren Zhonglun a cold look without any expression, La Peikang suddenly lost interest in continuing the conversation with Li Chen and turned around and walked away.
The abandoned Li Chen looked around, and seeing that no one paid attention to him, he couldn't help but touch his nose in embarrassment.
As he walked towards the Air Force, he secretly swore in his heart:
"Huh? You all look down on me, right? Well, this time I'm going to show you how powerful I am!
The day when "Sky Hunter" is officially released and its box office exceeds that of "Operation Red Sea" will be the day when I, Li Chen, become famous!
By then, I will make all those who look down on me look at me with new eyes and treat me as a guest of honor!
Thirty years in Hedong, thirty years in Hexi, don’t bully young people into poverty! "
