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

Chapter 931: The national husband's screen debut? The three sisters of Huanzhu reunite?
As August arrived, the film and television industry became bustling early in the morning.

The main reason is the "Detective Chinatown 2" which is currently in theaters, and the "Legend of the Gods" which has been criticized and accused by the entire network!
"After three days of the first weekend, the comedy film "Detective Chinatown 2" produced by Feiyue Films has successfully exceeded the 10 billion mark in total box office, closing at 10.17 billion yuan, successfully surpassing "Skiptrace" and ranking No. 1 on the Chinese-language movie box office list during the summer vacation!"

"It is reported that the third-day single-day box office of Detective Chinatown 2 was 3.4 million yuan. The film has now exceeded 3 million yuan in box office for three consecutive days, and has received rave reviews online."

"According to predictions from many experts and professors in the industry, this film has great potential to break the box office record of this year's Spring Festival film The Mermaid. Please stay tuned!"

In just three days, the box office has exceeded 10 billion, and there is still unlimited potential...

Looking at the achievements of "Detective Chinatown 2", all the big and small media in the entertainment industry could not sit still and rushed to report on this comedy blockbuster which was hit in this summer vacation.

As more and more people watch the movie, whether online or in real life, people's discussions and positive reviews of the movie continue to rise.

Just like "The Mermaid" in this year's Spring Festival, "Detective Chinatown 2" has unknowingly become a movie that has sparked nationwide discussion.

At this point, not only Chen Fei, but everyone inside and outside the circle are full of confidence in "Detective Chinatown 2"!

Everyone is looking forward to when this movie will break 20 billion, or even 30 billion, or successfully break the box office record of "The Mermaid"!

At this time, in the chairman’s office of China Film Group.

Looking at the online reports about "Detective Chinatown 2" and comparing them with the data reports on the film's screening data, screening rate, attendance rate, etc. in his hands, La Peikang could not hide his envy.

"This movie is really a success! It's hard to imagine that a comedy movie with a relatively low budget can have such a high box office potential."

"I have to say that Feiyue Films has always been very professional in comedy films, including the previous '囧 series', 'Crazy series', 'Lost in Thailand', 'Charlotte's Troubles', and the current 'Tang Detective series', all of which are top-notch!"

The person who answered the phone was He Zhenzhong, the current vice president of China Film Group. He is mainly responsible for the distribution business and is considered to be La Peikang's confidant.

La Peikang nodded slightly, feeling a little emotional.

If a film and television company can have a good screenwriter and pair it with top-notch directing skills, it will be invincible!

Thinking of this, he couldn't hide his curiosity again: "Zhenzhong, do you think that this "Detective Chinatown 2" has a chance to surpass "The Mermaid" and become the new box office champion of this year's film history?"

He Zhenzhong thought for a moment and replied, "I personally feel that the chances are very high. After the summer vacation, there is also the Chinese Valentine's Day, and with the extension of the key, coupled with its strong reputation, it should not be a problem to break the 30 billion box office."

Hearing this, La Peikang fell silent.

After a long while, he murmured, "If this movie can break 30 billion, it will be the third movie of Feiyue Films to break 30 billion at the box office after The Martian and Operation Mekong!"

He never thought that "Detective Chinatown 2" would not be eligible for key extension.

There is absolutely no way the General Administration would reject a movie with such great box office and reputation.

He Zhenzhong suddenly added, "If nothing unexpected happens, Feiyue Film and Television's film, Ghost Blows Out the Light: The Temple of Kunlun, which will be released during the National Day holiday, should also have the potential to break 30 billion yuan at the box office."

Upon hearing this, La Peikang could no longer bear it.

He asked directly: "Do you think it is possible for The Great Wall to hit the 30 billion box office?"

"Yes!" He Zhenzhong said confidently, "In my opinion, The Great Wall is no less popular than any other blockbuster movie in terms of popularity and production scale. With our distribution and promotion, it will be no problem for the box office to exceed 30 billion yuan."

La Peikang couldn't help but reveal a faint smile on his face.

After all, "The Great Wall" was controlled by him alone. The higher the box office, the greater his achievement will naturally be.

Thinking of this, he immediately made arrangements: "We can release some promotional videos one after another, and we should also warm up for The Great Wall in advance."

"Okay, Mr. La, I understand."

He Zhenzhong responded, and after making sure that the boss had no other instructions, he turned and left the office.

However, as the office door closed, La Peikang, who was inside, suddenly sighed:
"Oh, if I had... Never mind, things have already happened, let's just move on. Anyway, no matter who China Film loses, it will still be the leader among state-owned enterprises! Its position is unshakable!"

Unlike the rave reviews for "Detective Chinatown 2" across the internet, "Legend of the Gods" is much more unlucky.

The media are not even willing to devote more words to it when reporting on it.

"The fantasy 'masterpiece' 'Legend of the Gods', produced by Bona and with an investment of 5 million yuan, grossed 3 million yuan in three days of release, and only 1.28 million yuan was earned on the third day."

With an investment of 5 million yuan, it boasted that it would break the box office record of Chinese-language films, but it only earned 3 million yuan in box office revenue in three days...

If nothing unexpected happens, this movie will be completely unrecoverable.

And the most important thing is that its reputation has also collapsed!
A full 3 people on Douban gave the film extremely low ratings and negative reviews, and as the film has been released for a long time, there are more and more criticisms online.

"I originally went to see the movie because of Li Kung Fu Superstar Link, but I didn't expect his cameo time to be so short. Isn't this just using his name to cheat the box office?"

"Why call it 'The Legend of the Gods'? Why not just call it 'The Legend of Xiang Zuo'?"

"I bet! There won't be a worse movie than this one in the next three years, unless it's a sequel."

"Mysterious aesthetics, a plot that went off track, and shockingly bad costumes and props... It's really hard for me to imagine that this is a movie with an investment of 5 million yuan!"

"Let's vote. The worst actor among the male actors is Xiang Zuo, and the worst actress is undoubtedly Yang Ying. These two seem to be here for fun. I'm really impressed!"

"I thought Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains and The Promise were bad enough, but I didn't expect that The Legend of the Gods actually condensed the essence of all the bad movies. It's amazing!"

With the negative reviews online and the completely collapsed reputation, the statements boasted by the crew at the beginning of the release seem like a joke.

A 5 million blockbuster production, starring international superstar Li Lianlian, a luxurious cast of domestic entertainment + Hong Kong and Taiwan actors... These high-sounding words have now become the target of netizens' complaints, adding to the laughing stock!
……

At this moment, in the chairman's office of Bona Group, the atmosphere was so depressing that it was frightening!

Xiang Huaqiang and Yu Dong were sitting opposite each other, both holding cigarettes, their faces full of sorrow and helplessness.

Seeing the two grown men not saying a word but just puffing away at the cigarettes, Xiang Tai finally couldn't sit still anymore.

She stood up suddenly, and the jewels on her body collided with each other, making crackling sounds. "Director Yu, can't we think of other ways to make this movie?"

Although it was stated externally that "Legend of the Gods" was produced by Bona.

But the fact is, in order to support their son, the Xiang couple specially registered a company and also participated in the investment.

Therefore, now that the movie has made such a huge loss, the couple has to pay for it!

"Alas!" Yu Dong gave a bitter smile and said helplessly: "Xiang Tai, now that things have developed to this point, it is no longer a question of whether or not to find a solution. The key is that the reputation of the movie is too bad, and the theaters have not been able to increase the number of screenings. How can the box office be high?"

Hearing this, Xiang Tai was slightly stunned and didn't know what to say for a moment.

But at this time, Xiang Huaqiang expressed doubts: "I did read the comments online, but I always feel that most people are just joining in the fun, and there are not many real negative reviews.

And I have an inexplicable feeling that many of the negative reviews are just echoing others, as if someone is deliberately leading the trend and guiding netizens to attack our film."

"Right, right, right!" Xiang Tai nodded quickly: "I think so too. Obviously, our Xiang Zuo acted so well, but there are a lot of people scolding him for his poor acting skills. Someone must be deliberately slandering us!"

"Is that so?" Yu Dong was also a little confused by the two people's confident tone, and couldn't help but ask curiously: "Have you done any investigation? Are you sure that someone is organizing a troll army to smear?"

"There's no need to investigate, you can see it at a glance!"

"Huh? Hibiki has such good eyesight?"

"Mr. Yu, you don't know that when the movies invested by our Zhongqixing were released in the past, we would often encounter smear campaigns from our peers. This situation was very common..." Xiang Tai said with certainty, and his words seemed to have determined who was behind the scenes.

Yu Dong was a little confused for a moment: "What do you mean?"

"I think we can't just sit there and wait for death. We have to fight back. Our big-budget movie with a 5 million investment is actually not as good as a comedy? This is simply a fantasy!

This kind of competition method is really too dark, hiring Internet trolls to smear us and deliberately reducing our film schedule, it is really too arrogant, I can’t stand it anyway..."

Xiangtai became more and more excited as he spoke, and in the end he couldn't bear it anymore and turned around and ran out!

"Mr. Xiang, what is your wife doing?!" Yu Dong had an inexplicable ominous premonition in his heart.

"I'll go take a look." Xiang Huaqiang stood up and walked out while saying to Yu Dong behind him: "Yu Dong, sometimes we can't be too weak. Kind people will be bullied."

Yu Dong: “???”

Looking at the heavily closed office door, Fatty Yu was confused: "No? What on earth are these two doing? What the hell? They're not going to cause any big trouble for me, are they?"

……

Because he had an appointment with Huo Qigang to discuss something at the company at 10:30 in the morning, Chen Fei did not accompany Liu Yifei to sleep in today, but left home at nine o'clock.

He first asked the driver to go directly to the company, then he took out his mobile phone and briefly checked to see if there was any new development in the entertainment industry.

Looking around, in addition to the news about "Detective Chinatown 2" and "Legend of the Gods", there are a lot of new information on the portal website.

"Due to the impact of the 'Korean Restriction Order', Korean stars may be blocked from coming to China, and many film and television companies have fallen into an unprecedented panic...

It is reported that the highly anticipated Korean actor Song Zhongji was replaced because of this, and the originally promised 42 million yuan salary instantly vanished, and 53 artists similar to him and the dramas they participated in were not spared and were affected to varying degrees. "

"Reprinted from The Hollywood Journal, the famous Chinese director Feng Xiaogang has recently signed a contract with the famous American agency CAA, becoming another Chinese filmmaker to work with CAA after Li An, Wang Jiawei, Chen Long and others!"

"The costume, suspense, and fantasy epic "Legend of the Demon Cat," jointly produced by New Classics, Shengkai Pictures, Kadokawa Pictures, and Yinghuang Films, directed by Chen Kaige and produced by Chen Hong, has completed the set at the Xiangyang Tangcheng Film and Television Base. Once the actors are all present, filming will officially begin."

"On the evening of August 8, the fantasy romance film "Love O12O", adapted from Gu Man's novel of the same name, will officially hit the screen and meet many fans.

The film brings together industry elites such as Zhang Yibai and Zhao Tianyu, as well as the powerful combination of Yang Ying and Jing Boran... and the "national husband" Wang Sicong's screen debut will also be coming, so stay tuned! "

"..."

In the entertainment industry, which represents cultural output, various policies are always changing rapidly.

As the "Korean Restriction Order" continues to ferment in the industry, many second- and third-tier actors in the country seem to have seen unprecedented opportunities.

After all, with limited resources, the withdrawal of Korean stars will undoubtedly free up more room for them to develop.

However, for those film and television companies that have invested huge amounts of money in filming and starring Korean stars, this sudden change is undoubtedly a disaster.

Mango TV, for example, not only has to face huge economic losses, but also has to readjust various shooting and recording plans. It is undoubtedly busy and exhausted, and wailing constantly.

As for Feng Xiaogang signing the contract with CAA, if nothing unexpected happens, it is probably done to increase Huayi's market value and influence.

As the saying goes, laymen watch the excitement, while insiders watch the door.

Although many netizens have speculated online, will Feng Xiaogang take this opportunity to enter Hollywood and shoot his own blockbuster? Will he continue to carry forward the unique charm of "Feng's comedy" on the international stage?

But in the eyes of many practitioners in the industry, his behavior is just to gild his own image.

Perhaps Feng Xiaogang still has a lot of say in the Chinese-language film industry, but once he goes abroad, how could Hollywood capital pay any attention to him?
It’s called “Feng-style comedy”, but who abroad would pay attention to it?

You can draw the conclusion without even verifying it, this thing will 100% fail to adapt to the local climate once it goes abroad!

In comparison, the promotional release for the film version of "Love O2O" is more interesting.

"National Husband" Wang Sicong actually also starred in this movie. This news has never been revealed to the public by the crew before!
Now that it has suddenly been exposed, it has undoubtedly attracted the attention of many netizens.

The hot searches on major portals are very diverse and chaotic, and it can even be clearly seen that some news releases are paid to be posted there.

But on Weibo, the topic "Reunion of the Three Sisters of Return of the Condor Heroes" firmly occupied the top spot on the hot search list, attracting many netizens to watch.

In fact, at the beginning, everyone just thought that Fan Bingbing might attend Princess Ziwei's wedding, but Zhao Yanzi would probably not go.

After all, she was scolded by the whole network last month, so it would be better for her not to show up in public now.

But no one expected that she actually went there!
In order to restore her reputation and image as much as possible, she even hyped up the "Memories of "My Fair Princess"" and the "Deep Love and Friendship of the Three Sisters of "My Fair Princess"" at the wedding.

I have to say, this operation was really successful on her part.

Looking around, there are actually quite a few idiots online who are calling for the three of them to recreate the original "My Fair Princess" and shoot a sequel.

I don’t know what’s in these people’s heads, and they don’t think at all when they speak.

They didn't even think about it. With Fan Bingbing's current status, how could he be willing to continue to be a maid for those two princesses?
Therefore, this kind of remarks were directly criticized and targeted by a large number of Fan Bingbing's fans, so much so that the Internet was very lively at the moment.

But at this moment, Chen Fei noticed a piece of news that was squeezed into the corner.

It was a video of the media interviewing Zhao Yanzi at the wedding.

In response to the reporter's question, Zhao Yanzi revealed: "No Other Love has completely distanced itself from Dai and the Japanese actress.

Now we just need to wait for the General Administration to review and approve it. We will change the cast and reshoot the film as soon as possible. Please rest assured, fans, this movie will be available to you soon..."

The comment section under the video is currently dominated by Zhao Yanzi's fans. Looking around, it's all filled with support.

If abusive or sarcastic remarks are heard, they will be suppressed.

"Haha? You still want to change the actors and reshoot? That's wishful thinking."

Chen Fei curled his lips, his heart full of sarcasm.

Tong Gang had told him before that after that incident, not only the two actors, but even Zhao Yanzi herself would not be able to continue filming any works.

Any script she submitted would never pass review.

As for this drama "No Other Love", it has been completely banished to the cold palace and will never make a comeback again.

Still want to wait for approval before reshooting with a new cast? That's just wishful thinking!

"Boss, we are at the company."

The reminder from the driver in the front seat interrupted Chen Fei's thoughts.

After coming to his senses, he turned off his phone screen and got out of the car with his briefcase.

Huo Qigang just sent him a message, saying that he had arrived at the company early and was chatting with Su Guohai about the preparations for "Wushuang".

Now we just have to wait for him to arrive, and then the three of us will have a meeting to formally determine the next direction of the project.
