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

Chapter 943: Set a small goal, make 1 million first!

Chapter 943 Set a small goal, make million first!

"Feiyue Films and Wang Baoqiang Studio jointly issued a notice: The third comedy film in the '囧 series', "Hong Kong囧", produced by Chen Fei, supervised by Ning Hao, and directed, written and starred by Wang Baoqiang, has completed all the casting work..."

"It is reported that actors Huang Bo, Jiang Qinqin, Tong Liya and others will work with Wang Baoqiang to complete the filming of Lost in Hong Kong. Let us look forward to the effect of the film after its release."

"Lost in Hong Kong" is the second film in the 'Commercial Director Film Plan' implemented by Director Chen Fei and Director Ning Hao. The first film, So Young: Music Ignites Dreams, will be produced by Chen Guofu, General Manager of Feiyue Films' production department."

On the morning of the 25th, many people in the film and television industry once again turned their attention to Feiyue Film and Television.

However, seeing the casting announcement for "Lost in Hong Kong", many people still find it hard to believe!
It has been a common occurrence in recent years for actors to switch careers and become directors, but it is still hard to accept when Wang Baoqiang, an actor from a grassroots background, also joins the ranks of directors.

After all, as we all know, the current film and television industry has already entered the stage where "it's hard for people from poor families to become stars."

And to become a director is even more difficult than ascending to heaven!

But even in this situation, Wang Baoqiang actually broke in. This is really shocking!

For a while, many people in the circle inexplicably developed a sense of anticipation, wondering whether Wang Baoqiang's cross-industry attempt would be a complete success this time.

“What capitals and companies are the investors of this film Lost in Hong Kong?”

At Shanghai Film Studio, Ren Zhonglun summoned his secretary as soon as he saw the news posted online.

The secretary had obviously done his homework in advance and responded immediately: "There are only four, namely Feiyue Films, Golden Harvest Films, Wang Baoqiang and Ning Hao Studios."

Hearing this, Ren Zhonglun's originally frowned brows immediately relaxed.

He originally thought that Shanghai Film Group would be excluded from Feiyue Films just like China Film Group.

Now it seems that this movie was purely promoted by Chen Fei in order to promote Wang Baoqiang, and probably also to verify whether he has the talent of a director.

It is definitely impossible to lose money. After all, this is the "囧 series" and Ning Hao is the producer.

Even if you can't make a big profit, but making a small profit should be no problem.

Thinking of this, Ren Zhonglun felt relieved and quickly put the matter of "Lost in Hong Kong" behind him. He turned to ask another question: "Have you arranged the appointment to meet with the city leaders?"

"Yes," the secretary responded, "It's all arranged. The appointment is at 11:15 am."

"it is good!"

Ren Zhonglun was very happy.

After waving his hand to signal his secretary to leave, he immediately bent down, opened the safe, and took out a document.

"Haha, you're such a mountain eagle. When you were in power, you suppressed me in every way. Now that you've retired, you're begging me for help...

"Han Jianuo's script? Hey! Like father, like daughter! I must do this for you beautifully! I'll make you owe me a big favor, hahahahaha!"

……

At 11 o'clock in the morning, after washing up, Liu Yifei, who had deliberately put on light makeup, followed Chen Fei out the door at his urging.

"Where are you taking me?" Seeing the car going further and further off the track, Liu Yifei finally couldn't help but ask out loud.

Fade Chen chuckled and said, "You'll know when you get there."

In order to prepare this gift, he made a reservation several months in advance and experienced several price increases during the process.

If you don't book early, you might not be able to get it even after the Chinese New Year, let alone during Liu Yifei's birthday!
After more than 40 minutes, the two finally arrived at their destination.

Looking at the huge container placed in the square in front of her, Bruce who had lost a lot of weight beside him, and several Ferrari 4s service staff, some scenes seemed to have emerged in Liu Yifei's mind!
"This...this is..."

"Your birthday present this year."

While speaking, Fade Chen extended his hand towards Bruce who was standing next to the container.

The next second, Bruce came running over and handed a pair of car keys to Fade Chen.

"Well, go and open it yourself."

Chen Fei handed the key to Liu Yifei, whose eyes were wide open in surprise.

Soon, as the service staff of the 4S store opened the container, a sports car covered with a bright red car cover appeared in the eyes of everyone at the scene!

Liu Yifei couldn't wait to walk forward and was about to reach out her hand, but she pulled it back the next second.

Under Chen Fei's puzzled gaze, she turned around and greeted with a smile: "Can you help me pull it together?"

"Okay."

Fade Chen responded and walked forward quickly.

"Let me take a picture of you!" Bruce suddenly took out a camera from behind him as if performing magic.

Ten seconds later, with the joint efforts of Liu Yifei and Chen Fei, the bright red car cover was slowly lifted, and a bright red Ferrari sports car appeared in front of everyone at the scene!

Looking from the front, the exterior design of this Ferrari is full of power and aesthetics. The front of the car is wide and the lines are smooth. The Ferrari logo on the chrome grille highlights its noble status.

The layout of the headlights and air outlets exudes a sense of modern technology, and combined with the trapezoidal design of the rear of the car and the LED taillights, it displays an ultimate sporty beauty!

“This is the latest model F12 launched by Ferrari this year, equipped with a V12 naturally aspirated engine with an output power of up to 740 horsepower, and its performance is excellent!

With Ferrari's professional differential, brake and suspension systems, the F12 can demonstrate extremely high stability and controllability at high speeds..."

Bruce spoke like a car dealer, and he made sense.

Liu Yifei turned around curiously and asked, "This car must be very expensive, right?"

Bruce nodded gently: "Because it is a special customized model, and it took nearly half a year to build it successfully, the price of this car is as high as 1800 million. Looking around, there is only one such car in the country!
Crystal, you don’t know that in order to customize this car, Boss spent a lot of effort and used many connections to design this unique Ferrari sports car for you..."

As he spoke, Bruce opened the car door and began to introduce himself again:
"The interior colors are your favorite blue and magnolia purple. Every seat is handmade and embroidered with your name. The English word 'Crystal' is also on the steering wheel and the leather in the car..."

Liu Yifei listened very carefully, nodded slightly from time to time, and even leaned over to touch the car's interior.

Of course, she didn't forget her boyfriend who gave her a gift.

While listening to the explanation, she would look towards Chen Fei from time to time, her beautiful watery eyes filled with deep affection.

After more than ten minutes, Bruce's explanation finally ended.

"I'm going to go through the formalities with the staff first, don't move! I want to be the driver when I go back later."

"Okay." Fade Chen smiled and nodded at her: "This car is yours, of course you have to drive it."

Afterwards, after watching Liu Yifei leave with the staff, he turned around and patted Bruce on the shoulder, praising him with satisfaction: "You did a great job!"

"Haha, Fei, don't worry about me, I guarantee there will be no problem!"

Bruce patted his chest, feeling very proud.

There was no one else around at the moment, so the two of them could naturally talk about some more private topics.

Chen Fei took the initiative to ask: "What's the situation on Kerguelen Island?"

"Everything is going well." Bruce subconsciously lowered his voice: "There has been great progress in the research of technologies such as aerospace, satellites, chips, artificial intelligence AI, all-solid-state batteries, and drones.

Of course, the biggest progress is in the military industry. As long as you are willing to spend money, there are a lot of good things you can use, and there will be no problem in protecting yourself..."

A sentence that Mr. Qian once said is still a famous saying that Chen Fei believes in to this day!

"Having a sword in your hand and not using it are two completely different things!"

In order to protect your real "wealth", security is definitely the first priority!

Because only when you have the power to protect "wealth" can you take good things out with confidence, otherwise you will be making wedding dresses for others.

...

Half an hour later, with Liu Yifei's return, Chen Fei had to interrupt his conversation with Bruce.

"You drive my car and follow us, and we'll go eat together first."

Fade Chen handed the key of his Maybach to Bruce.

"Okay."

The group set off immediately and headed straight for the first ring.

Time soon came to around three o'clock in the afternoon. After dinner, Chen Fei sent Liu Yifei back to the villa, and then he and Bruce found a quiet place to talk about the subsequent development and planning of Kerguelen Island.

According to his idea, he wanted to build the island into a "new city" with countless top high-tech technologies, so as to leave enough wealth for himself and his descendants for the rest of his life.

Long-term plans usually take time to achieve, and advance planning will determine the future development, so he must keep up with it all the time...

"First, we have to reclaim land. The current area of ​​Kerguelen Island is definitely not enough."

"Reclaim land from the sea?" Bruce was slightly stunned after hearing what Fade said: "This seems to be not allowed, right?"

"Who said that? In 08, Xiao Rizi formally submitted an application for land reclamation to the United Nations Commission on the Continental Shelf, and the approval for the act had already been approved at that time." "Ah? Really?"

"Yes, if you don't believe me, you can go to our country's South China Sea and see that land reclamation has already begun there."

Bruce scratched his head in confusion. "What about Japan? Since they applied first, they must have made great achievements, right? Why didn't I hear about them doing land reclamation when I was in Japan?"

Chen Fei couldn't help laughing: "You'll know if you go find out more. Their island has been almost completely eaten by crown-of-thorns starfish."

Bruce: “???”

The island was eaten by starfish? What is this operation?
While the two were chatting, Liu Yifei, who had returned to the villa, had already taken nine original, unretouched nine-square photos of herself and her car.

She uploaded all the photos to her Weibo account, and then she started typing:

"Thank you to the most handsome, best, most amazing, most intelligent, and most loving boyfriend in the world for giving me this birthday gift. Love you @陈飞."

Because she hadn't posted on Weibo for nearly a month, her fans became excited the moment Liu Yifei posted this.

Soon, her friends in the circle, including media and reporters active on the Internet, also gathered around.

And when the content of this Weibo post was reposted crazily by the media, as expected, its popularity began to soar sharply and directly ranked first on the hot search list!

The comment section below is already filled with all kinds of opinions.

"With all the fans, I wish Princess Sissi a happy birthday!"

"Wow? Director Chen gave me a sports car? He's really generous."

"Wow! This sports car isn't cheap, is it? Can you lend it to me for a spin?"

"Wait for me! Wait for me! I'll take a taxi to your house right now! I want to be the first woman to sit in the passenger seat! Wow!"

"Shu Chang, I suggest you find a boyfriend as soon as possible and ask your boyfriend to give you one too, so that you don't have to envy Yifei anymore, hehe."

"Zhu Yawen, shut up! You haven't even given Sister Jiani a sports car, and you still have the nerve to say that about me..."

"This car isn't cheap, is it? Judging from the details, it looks like a custom-made Ferrari? An F12... it shouldn't be less than 1500 million, right?"

"What the hell? It can't be less than 1500 million? So expensive? Director Chen is really generous!"

"I really want a boyfriend like Director Chen, woooo, God please give me a boyfriend!"

……

Bruce did not stay in the capital for too long. After delivering the car, he returned to Kyle Brown Island again with Chen Fei's latest plan.

He no longer has anything to do in Hollywood. Walton Pictures has become a giant and there is no need for him to be in charge of the company all the time.

Therefore, his development focus has now shifted to the island.

That is not only the retirement home that Chen Fei left for himself, but also the retirement home for him and his descendants. Of course, he has to pay great attention to it.

And the most important thing is that the identity of "island owner + high-tech investment tycoon" is much more satisfying than being the boss of a brokerage company!
There was no big movement in the film and television industry on the 26th. After all, except for "Jason Bourne" and "Ice Age 5: Collision Course", other Chinese-language films are almost about to be withdrawn.

However, when the time came to 11 o'clock in the morning, a notice from the General Administration made many film and television industry practitioners and capitals in the film and television circle frown.

"The General Administration issued another notice this morning, regarding the film and television industry and the selection of key TV drama projects. Careful! Careful again! We must strictly regulate "magic dramas", "thunder dramas", and "brainless dramas", comprehensively solve the problem of over-emphasizing ratings and click-through rates, and at the same time curb the problem of "sky-high pay"..."

With the development of the times, regulation of the film and television industry appears almost every once in a while.

But this time, when the six words "curbing sky-high film pay" appeared, many people were still frightened?
Because since the IP fever began to sweep the entire film and television industry in 2015, it has been like an unstoppable torrent, profoundly changing the production model of TV dramas and the audience's viewing experience.

The rise of IP fever has led to the emergence of various types of works such as costume, fantasy, youth, idol, etc.

Most of these works are adapted from popular IPs on the Internet. They not only have a huge fan base, but also have distinctive features in terms of plot and character settings.

Many young actors and actresses also took advantage of this trend to quickly rise and become new stars in the eyes of the audience.

However, there are some huge problems hidden behind the IP craze!

As actor prices climb and production costs increase, some works that originally had potential have difficulty coming to the market due to funding issues.

This not only makes the audience miss many works that could have become classics, but also hinders the diversified development of the TV drama industry to a certain extent.

At the same time, in pursuit of high ratings and click-through rates, some TV dramas have begun to rely too much on IP elements and ignore the depth and connotation of the plot. This short-sighted behavior not only harms the interests of the audience, but also affects the overall reputation of the film and television industry.

The most important and shocking point is that with the rise of IP fever and traffic stars, jaw-dropping "sky-high pay" and "sky-high copyrights" have begun to emerge in an endless stream!
Some media outlets have made a special statistic. A year ago, the online copyright of "The Legend of Miyue" was only 300 million per episode, but this year, "Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace" has soared to 900 million per episode!
While these high transaction prices were criticized by netizens, they were undoubtedly also questioned by many people.

Just a few days ago, Big Lao Wang blurted out, "If you want to be the richest man, that's the right direction to strive for, but it's better to set a small achievable goal first, for example, I should make 100 million first."

Once these words were spoken, coupled with the influence of the current "sky-high film pay", it undoubtedly caused restlessness among many young people today.

Others even set a small goal of "1 million", but we are still struggling for a monthly salary of 3000 yuan. Is this fair? Is this reasonable? Is this tolerable?

Faced with the protests from a large number of “lower-class people” and fluctuations in public opinion, it is naturally impossible for the top leaders to remain indifferent.

Chen Fei had just arrived at the company in the afternoon. Before he could warm up his chair, Su Guohai rushed over.

Jin walked in, put a document in his hand on the table, and reported solemnly: "Director Chen, the General Administration has just issued a notice, saying that a symposium on the innovation of radio and television programs will be held."

Upon hearing this, Fade Chen couldn't help but shook his head helplessly, muttering to himself, "This meeting comes at a really good time."

He took the document and glanced at it briefly. He saw the title clearly written: "Symposium on Innovation and Regulation of Radio and Television Programs... Aims to strengthen value guidance, enrich ideological connotations, improve quality, and provide the people with better, more healthy and beneficial spiritual food..."

The words "innovation" and "rectification" in the title of the official document are particularly eye-catching, and are even deliberately bolded and blackened, which undoubtedly demonstrates the General Administration's dissatisfaction with the current chaos in the film and television industry.

Chen Fei thought for a moment and reminded him, "Go and tell the studios and agencies that cooperate with the company to be quiet and don't let them be caught as an example."

"Okay, Mr. Chen, I understand."

Su Guohai nodded in understanding.

"I won't go to this meeting. You can go there at the end of the month. I have to attend the launch conference of Wang Baoqiang's Lost in Hong Kong."

"Okay, I'll arrange the itinerary in advance."

The two were chatting here, however, the circle was already in an uproar.

As the General Administration issued this notice, major media outlets rushed in like sharks smelling blood, frantically collecting all kinds of information and reporting on it in turns.

For a time, topics such as "sky-high film pay", "celebrity flaunting wealth", and "sky-high copyright prices" instantly became the focus of public attention.

"The sky-high pay for "The Princess Weiyoung" revealed! Yang's pay is as high as 8000 million! It's jaw-dropping!"

"It is reported that Zhou Xun's salary for Ruyi's Royal Love in the Palace was also as high as 8000 million, and Fan Bingbing's salary for Win the World was million, setting a new record!"

"Lu Han was reportedly paid 1.2 million yuan to star in Fighter of the Destiny? A traffic star easily accomplished a small goal, which is really ridiculous compared to the 3000 yuan monthly salary of his fans..."

"Yang Yang's salary for Love O6000O was million yuan, his crew lived in luxury suites, and there were special people serving on the set..."

"Miss Numbers can easily earn a high salary just by reciting numbers..."

For a time, all kinds of negative news emerged like mushrooms after rain, making people wonder whether these people were being targeted?
Although many celebrities jumped out to refute the rumors at the first opportunity and tried to stay out of the matter, they still could not get away easily.

Under this situation, many backlogged incidents were suddenly exposed by people with ulterior motives, and the heat soared in an attempt to confuse the public.

Zhang Da Huzi was the first to jump out.

First, the wife cheated on her godson, and then the old man himself kept a mistress. It was truly eye-opening!

Immediately afterwards, the Tang people made another big joke.

Up to now, the contract termination lawsuit with the company's artist Jiang Jinfu has not yet been concluded, but Jin Chen suddenly jumped out and unilaterally announced on Weibo that he would ask Tangren to terminate the contract.

For a moment, most netizens looked over there.

You know, Jin Chen was poached from his original company by Cai Yinong at a "high price" at the end of the previous year.

But now, only two years have passed and the contract is still a long way from officially expiring, but she suddenly unilaterally proposed to terminate the contract. This is almost telling the outside world that the cooperation between the two parties is not going smoothly!

Many netizens outside the circle are speculating whether there is any conflict between the two sides?

But almost everyone in the circle was laughing at Tangren.

Cai Yinong has brought this situation upon herself entirely!

The top male and female stars of the company left one after another, and then Lin Gengxin and Jiang Jinfu unilaterally broke their contracts, and now Jin Chen...

All of this proves that there might be a big problem within the Tang people.

And if nothing unexpected happens, it will probably still be a problem in the two aspects of operation and development.

After all, if a company has good prospects for development, why would its employees just run away?
