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

Chapter 950: The progress of "Dying to Survive"... 30 billion, are you kidding?
After a night, it was the day after the Venice International Film Festival.

Looking around, the headlines of major domestic entertainment portals are still dominated by the term "Chen Fei proposes to Liu Yifei".

This also resulted in Fan Bingbing, who was at the San Sebastian International Film Festival, and Zhang Ziyi, who was at the Toronto Film Festival, not being able to grab a spot on the hot searches no matter how hard they tried.

However, the news that Li Bingbing went to Hollywood to join the crew of "The Meg" briefly topped the hot search list, but it did not last long and was soon suppressed by the term "3.8 million diamond ring".

However, Chen Fei and Liu Yifei, who were the subjects of the hot searches, did not pay much attention to domestic news.

Because Liu's father is going back.

In the VIP waiting room of the airport, Liu Yifei first gave out the gift that she had prepared for her father long ago.

"This is a watch that Chen Fei bought for you, and this is a scarf that I bought for my aunt, and there are also toys for my sister. Remember to take them all, don't leave any behind..."

Although the gifts looked very expensive, Liu's father did not refuse them because they were gifts from his daughter and he had to accept them.

"The girl has grown up and can buy gifts for her dad, haha."

"That's right, I'm not a child anymore."

"Well, I'm getting married soon, so I'm definitely not a child anymore."

Father Liu's eyes were full of love and relief. He gently reminded them, "You two should be good to each other. Don't quarrel. If there is anything, you must talk calmly. There is no problem in this world that cannot be solved. Don't do something that you will regret for the rest of your life when you get emotional..."

These words seemed to be a warning, but inexplicably there was a different kind of emotion.

Liu Yifei remained silent, just nodded, but did not respond.

She knew what her father was talking about, and she would definitely work hard and not follow the same path as her father and mother.

Chen Fei naturally couldn't remain silent at this moment, he quickly responded: "Don't worry, we will be fine, and we will definitely discuss anything with you."

Liu Yifei looked back at him, her eyes misty but also filled with deep love.

……

More than an hour later, Liu's father disappeared at the boarding gate.

Seeing Liu Yifei feeling a little disappointed, Fade Chen comforted her softly, "It's not like we won't be able to see each other anymore. Dad will come back to China when we get married."

"Huh? Who said I was going to marry you? Besides! That's my dad, not your dad."

"Once you get married, you'll be our dad."

"No! You can't scream!"

"Hey? Can you still control my mouth?"

The sadness and loss of parting will soon disappear, because as long as there are loved ones around you, all the bad emotions will be easily covered up.

……

Time comes on the 12th.

At the departure gate of Los Angeles Airport, Chen Fei and Liu Yifei walked out in a low-key manner.

Neither of them is the kind of person who likes to stir up attention. Given that the current hot searches in the country are too terrifying, they decided to go abroad for some quiet time.

After all, with the current popularity, as soon as you return to China, you will definitely be surrounded by a large number of media.

Just thinking about it, Fade Chen felt like his head was about to explode!

He doesn't want his private life to be exposed to outsiders. In his ideal state, fans and the media only need to focus on his works.

As for his own life, of course it has to be arranged and controlled by himself, not influenced by the outside world.

What's more, he is not a traffic star and does not need too much popularity. He just needs to keep producing high-quality works.

It just so happened that Marvel was planning to insert some advertisements into "Avengers: Infinity War" and was preparing to hold a special "advertiser" dinner.

Based on this, Chen Fei and Liu Yifei flew to Los Angeles, planning to stay there for a few days, attend the dinner event, and return home after the heat subsided a little.

Leonardo DiCaprio has been enjoying his life recently. After winning the Best Actor Award, he has become very indifferent to filming and has been playing around almost every day.

Therefore, at Chen Fei's call, he came to the airport in advance when he had nothing to do, ready to take on the position of "driver".

The Cadillac drove all the way to Beverly Hills.

In the driver's seat, Leonardo was driving with a cigar in his mouth and puffing smoke, looking so leisurely.

"I say, isn't it time for you to lose some weight? You're almost as fat as a pig!" Chen Fei glanced at his big belly with disgust.

"No! Losing weight is too painful. I want to enjoy life. My dream of becoming an actor has been fulfilled. I want to live for myself for the rest of my life!"

As the highest-paid actor in Hollywood, and having starred in so many wonderful works before, Leo should have already achieved financial freedom by now.

Two years ago, he won the Oscar for Best Actor for his role in "The Revenant". His life has long been complete.

Chen Fei didn't argue with him about dreams and life. Everyone has the choice to decide their own life. He had no interest in and would not interfere.

Changing the subject, he asked, "Are there any good movies being shown here recently?"

"A good movie?"

Leonardo thought for a moment and replied, "This week's highest-grossing movie is Sully, produced by Warner Bros. If you want to see something more exciting, you can also go and watch DC's Suicide Squad.

As for animated films, there are Robinson Crusoe and Sausage Party, both of which are pretty good.”

"Okay, thanks for the recommendation."

"You're welcome." Leonardo took a puff of his cigar and suddenly changed the subject: "Will you come to my party tonight? I can introduce some hot girls to you."

As soon as these words were spoken, the car suddenly became quiet.

Liu Yifei, who was playing with her mobile phone in the back seat, suddenly raised her head and shot her sharp eyes straight towards the front seat!

Feeling the coldness on his back, Fade Chen suddenly felt something was wrong!

But he didn’t panic, but refused in a very calm tone: “Leon, I’m not a pervert like you, I’m not interested in any hot girls.

By the way, there is one thing you may not know, I have already successfully proposed during the Venice Film Festival, and I am about to get married. "

How smart is Leo?

As soon as he heard Chen Fei's reply, he knew he had said the wrong thing.

His eyes rolled around, and he immediately laughed, "Of course I know your proposal was successful, a diamond ring priced at $5750 million, that's so cool!

Actually, I was just joking with you. There was no party. I was just testing your sincerity for Crystal..."

The sharp gazes behind them gradually faded away. In the front row, the two of them looked at each other inconspicuously and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

……

The night in Los Angeles was getting darker. After returning to the villa and tidying up briefly, Chen Fei hugged the freshly washed and fragrant Liu Yifei and lay down on the bed.

Although both of them felt a little sleepy, they couldn't help but pick up their phones before going to bed and check the domestic film, television and entertainment news.

Looking around, the cinema market is still being suppressed by three imported Hollywood blockbusters, and a number of newly released domestic films cannot even cross the "tens of millions box office" mark.

However, since "A Chinese Odyssey Part Three" and "Summer and Love" are about to be released, the Chinese-language film market is still quite active.

The two movies have already held their premiere ceremonies one after the other, and the internet has received only positive reviews. The evidence of paid press releases is too obvious!

At the same time, after "Youth" was submitted for review, Jiang Wen finally took out the last part of his "Beiyang Trilogy", "Evil Does Not Suppress Justice".

The news that the script has been approved has been reported by the media. Jiang Wen himself also acknowledged this fact and announced that the casting plan will be launched soon.

Just like the previous "Let the Bullets Fly" and "One Step Away", for this "Evil Does Not Suppress Justice", he once again called for the box office to break 10 billion.

After all, the production cost of this movie is as high as 4 million! If it fails to break the 10 billion box office, it will probably lose money like "One Step Away".

The outside world doesn't know where his confidence comes from, but he is full of confidence, as if he is in an attitude of "Three years in the east, three years in the west, don't bully Jiang Wen when he is poor."

Let’s not talk about the capital side for now, just looking at the actor circle, it has become lively now.

After all, whether it is "Youth", "Hidden Man", or "The Wandering Earth" which is currently being prepared, these are all top resources! Even if you can't get the first or second place, even if you get the third or fourth place, it's enough to be proud of.

~

Compared with the recent turmoil in the film and television industry, the "melon-eating circle" is already in a very lively state!

The biggest entertainment focus on the Internet at the moment is Guo Degang’s family tree incident.

Almost no one expected that when Mr. Guo, who called himself the "king of comedy", compiled the Deyun genealogy and expelled two former apprentices from the sect, he was counterattacked with "invoices" by his apprentices the next day!
With the help of the media, the contest between master and apprentice has undoubtedly become the biggest entertainment gossip at the moment.

However, according to the current situation, Guo Degang still holds the initiative.

After all, thanks to popular variety shows such as "Happy Comedian" and "Swordsman", his reputation and popularity have reached unprecedented heights.

In his external image, he has the air of a master. Not only has he established a firm foothold in the comedy world, he has also trained a large number of apprentices who are loved by the audience.

Among them, Xiao Yueyue has become the hottest comedy star at the moment with his own efforts and talents!
What's more, it is the 20th anniversary celebration of Deyun Club. The whole team is immersed in a festive atmosphere, and the enthusiasm and momentum have reached its peak.

Under such circumstances, Cao Yunjin's situation would naturally not be very easy, and it could even be said that there was almost no room for resistance.

However, things are unpredictable. Who could have thought that a few years later, this storm would have a boomerang effect again!

Chen Fei still remembers clearly that 20 years later, the reputation of Guo Degang and his apprentices has gradually undergone earth-shaking changes!

The apprentices who were expelled finally reaped the rewards of their hard work and finally ushered in their own spring, but Guo Degang himself became the one who was scolded for various reasons.

I have to say that the changes in fortune are really mysterious. The complexity of the entertainment industry and the variability of human nature are also unpredictable.

……

No matter how turbulent the entertainment industry is, for former China Film Group Chairman Han Sanping, current Shanghai Film Group Chairman Ren Zhonglun, and current Xi'an Film Group Chairman Wang Yong, these are just trivial matters not worth mentioning.

The three met at Han Sanping's home.

"Where's Fade Chen? Why didn't he come?"

Seeing Han Jianu taking out the script and project book of "Dying to Survive", Wang Yong couldn't help but ask out of curiosity.

"Brother Chen Fei and Sister Yifei went to Los Angeles. It seems they went to attend some 'advertisers' dinner'."

Advertisers dinner?
Wang Yong muttered subconsciously when he heard this: "What kind of advertiser dinner? Can it be more important than the project "Dying to Survive"?"

In his opinion, if the project of "Dying to Survive" is successful, it will go down in history. Otherwise, he would not have been able to help Han Sanping wholeheartedly to successfully implement this project.

Once it is successfully filmed, its incomparable practical significance will surely flourish and attract the attention and heated discussion of the whole nation...

It is no exaggeration to say that once this project is successful, Xiying will not have to worry about not having suitable political achievements to report to the higher authorities in the next three years.

But at this moment, Ren Zhonglun laughed and said, "Old Wang, we are at a different level from Chen Fei. Maybe we are the only ones who regard this project as a treasure, but in their eyes, it is just that."

After hearing this, Wang Yong was slightly stunned. He really had no suitable reason to refute it.

After all, compared to Chen Fei's current achievements and honors, the project "I Am Not a God of Medicine" does not seem to bring much bonus to him.

On the other hand, this project even has to rely on the gimmick of him being the director to attract enough attention in the early stages.

"Okay, don't worry about him. He will be back soon. What we need to discuss now is the issue of script approval and project approval."

Han Sanping interrupted their conversation, then looked up at Ren Zhonglun and asked bluntly, "How's the situation over there?"

"Almost." Ren Zhonglun raised his head slightly, a hint of pride on his face: "After my soft and hard persuasion, the municipal government has agreed to provide us with medical assistance."

"Good! Great! Lao Ren, you really put in a lot of effort this time!"

A smile immediately broke out on Han Sanping's face. As long as the medical side could agree, the difficulties they would face in the future would definitely be much less.

However, at this moment, Ren Zhonglun suddenly changed the subject: "But the government also put forward a condition."

"What conditions?"

Han Sanping was inexplicably nervous. He prayed secretly that the conditions would not be too excessive, otherwise there might be some trouble.

"It's simple. The Magic City International Film Festival."

When Ren Zhonglun said this, everyone in the room secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"only this?"

"Yes, only this one."

"Okay, that's no problem. I'll talk to Fade Chen. As long as it's not a Golden Rooster or Hundred Flowers, he won't have any objections."

After confronting those "old guards" several times a few years ago, Chen Fei has blacklisted all major award ceremonies in the country.

At first, the Golden Rooster side was still very stubborn, with an attitude that if you don’t give us face, then we will completely break up with you.

But soon, as Chen Fei began to dabble in mainstream commercial films, the Golden Rooster Awards gradually began to panic.

The superiors gave them many targets and tasks, requiring them to get in touch with the "main melody", but Chen Fei didn't give them any face at all, so they came several times to try to mediate, but were strongly rejected.

As the situation has evolved to this point, the two sides have long been incompatible, so it is best not to have any contact.

As for the Shanghai International Film Festival, there is no such problem. Although the organizing committee is a bit "worshiping foreigners", they are still very "behaved" when facing Chen Fei.

Because of this, films produced by Feiyue Films often go to the Shanghai International Film Festival for promotion.

In addition, with Shanghai Film Group serving as a hub, the relationship between the two sides is currently quite harmonious.

After chatting for a while, Ren Zhonglun asked again: "What about you two? I have already taken care of the medical side. If you two come together, there shouldn't be any problem with the Central Propaganda Department, right?"

Hearing this, Han Sanping and Wang Yong looked at each other subconsciously, and smiles appeared on their faces. Everything was said without words.

Both of them are "unreasonable" people. They are very familiar with such things, such as slamming the table, saying nice things, and begging for favors... They do them very smoothly.

After a lot of persuasion and persuasion, the Central Propaganda Department soon gave in.

"Let's wait until the script is officially approved before allocating shares. After all, there are also departments such as the Supreme People's Procuratorate, the Navy, and the Golden Shield. When the time comes, call them all over and sit down to discuss it carefully."

Han Sanping's proposal was approved by both Ren Zhonglun and Wang Yong.

"OK, no problem."

"Call me in advance and I'll rush over from the Magic City."

What followed was some discussion about the details of the script, and as the screenwriter, Han Jianu finally had the opportunity to speak.

However, as soon as she opened her mouth, she scared the three of them!
"I talked to my senior brother Chen Fei, and he felt that this project has both 'realistic' and 'commercial' attributes, so it can be taken to film festivals to win awards, and it can also be released in theaters to sell high box office.

Therefore, we decided to send the finished film directly to the Cannes International Film Festival next year.

Regardless of whether it can win an award or not, this movie will definitely be released during the summer vacation, National Day, or Lunar New Year..."

After listening to this narration, Han Sanping, Ren Zhonglun and Wang Yong looked at each other, feeling inexplicably excited!
If this was just Han Jianu's analysis, then the three of them would naturally not take it seriously. After all, it was just the words of a little girl.

But if these words came from Chen Fei, it would be different!

After all, when it comes to the ability to read scripts, the three of them admit that they are not as good as Chen Fei, or even far worse!

At this time, Ren Zhonglun suddenly asked curiously, "Did he tell you how much the box office would be if this story was made into a movie?"

Han Jianu scratched her head and replied a little embarrassedly: "He said there is hope to reach 30 billion. I don't know if he is joking with me."

30 billion? ? ?
When this astronomical figure came out, the three of them were stunned.

Isn't this a bit too far-fetched?

"Don't think about it, he must be joking with you." Han Sanping said very confidently.

"Yeah, yes, this must be a joke."

Ren Zhonglun and Wang Yong spoke in unison, their words full of doubt and disbelief.
