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

Chapter 956: "Light" is the most important thing. The movie was taken off the shelves because of criticism?
"This morning, Mr. Liu Zhenwei, the director of the "A Chinese Odyssey" series, posted several interpretations of the core of "A Chinese Odyssey" on his personal Weibo account, which sparked intense controversy! The specific content is as follows:

1: Sun Wukong is actually Tang Seng’s father. It is for his son’s sake that the latter embarks on the journey to the West.

2: Sun Wukong is actually a homosexual. He protects Tang Monk on his journey to obtain Buddhist scriptures because he loves him.

Three: Sun Wukong is actually a woman, and the reason why she caused chaos in the Heavenly Palace was because she could successfully change her sex after eating the peaches. The journey to obtain scriptures is actually a process of sex change..."

"While making controversial remarks, director Liu Zhenwei also said that after many years, "A Chinese Odyssey Part Three" will become a timeless classic like "Pancake Pandora's Box" and "Monkey King: Cinderella"."

"So far, the comment section of director Liu Zhenwei has been flooded by angry netizens and fans..."

"Teacher Liu spoke out, saying that Liu Zhenwei was reversing the Tian Gang and destroying the classic, and called on fans to boycott "A Chinese Odyssey 3". He also asked Weibo officials to delete his article and asked the General Administration to ban him!"

For the entire morning, the Internet was as lively as if it were Chinese New Year.

Fans were cursing, netizens were cursing, and industry insiders were all grinning and laughing.

"What the hell are you talking about LGBT? You mean Sun Wukong is gay? I really want to crack your head open and see if it's filled with shit!"

"Fuck! I'm really impressed that I chose to eat such a pile of shit!"

"If I continue to support 'A Chinese Odyssey', I will be an idiot!"

"What a wild imagination! What a wild imagination! Liu Zhenwei, you are awesome! I have to admit that you are awesome!"

"As expected of a Hong Kong director, he is really awesome. I never thought that Journey to the West could be interpreted in this way!"

On the way to the State Administration of Film, Chen Fei read the comments online and almost fainted from laughter.

Liu Zhenwei was probably stunned by the criticism. Facing the overwhelming criticism, he tried to make a few remarks at first, but finally fell silent.

Angry netizens were so angry that they went to Maoyan, Douban and other platforms and gave bad reviews to "A Chinese Odyssey Part Three" without mercy.

For a time, the movie rating dropped sharply!

In Chen Fei's opinion, if nothing unexpected happens, Liu Zhenwei should be thinking of using the attention and traffic brought by this article to continue to boost the box office performance of "A Chinese Odyssey 3".

But he never expected that netizens' reaction would be so intense!
Now, there are so many criticisms and negative reviews are starting to pour in... If nothing unexpected happens, this movie will probably be a failure.

Chen Fei is already looking forward to the box office performance of "A Chinese Odyssey 3" tomorrow, but he doesn't know to what extent it will collapse?

……

At 10:, as the Maybach parked in the parking space, Chen Fei stepped out of the car.

With the National Day approaching, after more than a month of hard work, "Dying to Survive" finally has some hope of passing the review.

Han Sanping had told him before that the Film Bureau was already going through the process and that it would take only a few days to get a filming permit.

But before that, a small symposium is still needed. After all, the impact of this project is so huge!

"Brother!"

A shout suddenly came from the door. Chen Fei turned his head and saw Han Jianu waving at him.

As the screenwriter and assistant director of "Dying to Survive", this girl is also one of the attendees today.

Fade Chen took two quick steps and came to the door: "Where's your dad? Has he arrived?"

"Yeah, he just arrived a while ago. Uncle Ren and Uncle Wang have also arrived. They are now in Uncle Tong's office..."

After calling out a series of uncles, the network of connections of the top second-generation stars and directors in the circle was demonstrated to the fullest!

The two of them walked towards Tong Gang's office together.

But I never expected that before I had taken a few steps, I would run into Zhang Hong again in the corridor.

"Congratulations, Director Zhang!"

As soon as they met, Chen Fei expressed his congratulations.

Zhang Hong raised her eyebrows when she heard this: "Wow? You have received the news?"

"Haha, strictly speaking, all of us here work for you, so how could we not know about the job changes of our immediate superior?"

Some time ago, the higher-ups made another adjustment, separating the Film Bureau from the General Administration, and along with it, all film-related functions were transferred to the Central Propaganda Department.

This also means that Zhang Hong, the head of the Film Bureau, is going to be promoted!

After all, after going to the Central Propaganda Department, everyone will be promoted half a level out of thin air, which is really worthy of congratulations.

The entire film and television industry has received the news by now, and many companies are even in a state of panic, because every change in a major leadership position will inevitably cause turmoil in the industry.

I just don’t know how big a storm this change will cause?

As they were talking, everyone had already arrived at the door of Tong Gang's office.

After pushing the door and walking in, Chen Fei was shocked to find that in addition to Han Sanping, Ren Zhonglun, Wang Yong, and Tong Gang, people from the Supreme People's Procuratorate, the Ministry of Justice, the Navy, the Golden Shield, and the State Food and Drug Administration were also there.

After greeting each other, a group of people, led by Tong Gang, went straight to the small meeting room next door.

Everyone first talked about the causes and consequences of the "Lu Yong incident" and some details, and then entered the "instructions" session.

The leader of the Drug Administration pushed up his glasses and turned to look at Fade Chen.

"Director Chen, I've seen the movie 'Dallas Buyers Club' that you directed before. In fact, the story is very similar to 'Dying to Survive', so I think you should also know what the key to directing this movie is, right?"

Under the gaze of everyone at the scene, Fade Chen slowly said: "Public opinion!"

He still clearly remembers the scene when he was surrounded by refugees, drug addicts, AIDS patients and LGBT people during the filming of "Dallas Buyers Club".

Although such large-scale marches and demonstrations will not occur in the country, public outcry is also an issue that needs to be taken seriously.

This is also the reason why the script has not been approved yet.

If netizens knew that there is medicine that can cure the disease, but ordinary people cannot afford it... it would inevitably cause unpredictable and terrible public opinion impact!
"So, does Director Chen have any unique insights or methods in this regard?"

"Yes!" Chen Fei nodded heavily and said seriously: "I will not deliberately exaggerate or even tamper with the content of the story for commercial or artistic reasons.

Seeking truth from facts is the key. We have to tell the people that there are also great obstacles to the supply of medicines, some of which come from abroad and some from home... From the fact that Lu Yong was finally acquitted, we can conclude that the country is working hard and will never give up on any of its people..."

"That's right! That's it!"

After hearing what Chen Fei said, the leaders of the drug supervision and judicial systems all smiled.

No matter what the circumstances, "light" is the most important!
Although society also has a dark side, the film and television industry, as an important propaganda system, must never lead the audience to look at the "darkness", especially for movies adapted from real-life themes!
After thinking about it, Fade Chen decided to continue patching: "Actually, when I saw the script of "Dying to Survive" a while ago, I had a plan in mind.

I hope to show the dazzling light through the lens, and show the hope and future of the pharmaceutical industry. This is also the obligation of us thought disseminators..."

The leader of the Food and Drug Administration nodded slowly and spoke from the bottom of his heart: "In fact, we have been making efforts since this incident happened.

However, the ethical issues of new drugs are too complicated. In addition to the scientific argumentation of the judgment criteria, there are also the proliferation of generic drugs, the harm of defective drugs, and the differences in the protection period and policies of new drugs in various countries. These problems make the road to new drug listing and protection full of challenges and unknowns..."

Chen Fei smiled slightly: "Leader, don't worry, through this movie, people will understand the difficulties and hardships of new drug research and development, and understand the complexity of the pharmaceutical industry.

I believe that in the future more people will pay attention to the solutions to core issues and work together to strive to have a sound mechanism for pharmaceutical research and development, production and sales in China..."

After more than half an hour of in-depth communication, the judiciary and drug supervision finally conveyed the wishes they wanted to express this time.

After making sure that Chen Fei fully understood, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Okay, let's shoot. If you have any difficulties, you can come to us..." After saying this, the main leaders left.

Before leaving, Tong Gang even patted Chen Fei on the shoulder and encouraged him, "Do a good job. This movie is of great importance. We need to take public opinion and public sentiment into consideration... I'm afraid you are the only one in the country who can take on this important task!"

"Don't worry, Director Tong, I will never let you down." Chen Fei solemnly promised.

After the leaders left, only the few responsible parties remained in the meeting room.

Han Sanping took the initiative to say: "Taking advantage of this opportunity today, why don't we distribute the investment shares first."

"Okay, it saves me from running back and forth between Shanghai and the capital every day." Ren Zhonglun agreed first and suggested that those who contribute more will naturally get a larger share of the investment.

Finally, with the dual support of Feiyue Films and himself, Chen Fei got a 20% investment share.

As for the other companies, they received corresponding investment shares based on their contributions.

No one will cheat or cheat in it, because in this "top circle", the belief is to distribute benefits according to the amount of effort contributed.

People like La Peikang, who only want political achievements but are not willing to put in much effort and who also betray their allies, are not even qualified to be seated!
"Then let's wait for the official documents to be issued before we start the casting plan, how about that?"

“Okay.” Wang Yong responded, “From now on, I’ll leave it to you, Director Chen. If you have any difficulties, just give me a call. I promise to be there whenever you call.”

Several other companies also responded.

Especially the Navy, they are still working with Chen Fei on "Operation Red Sea", and the relationship between the two sides is so close that they seem like they are wearing the same pants.

Then, after agreeing on the time to sign the contract, everyone left the General Administration one after another.

"Brother!" As they walked out, Han Jianu couldn't wait to chase after Fade Chen and asked, "When do you plan to start filming?"

"Once we get the filming permit, we will start casting immediately and try to finish filming before the Chinese New Year."

"Great! Great! We'll finish filming this year and it will be released next year!"

The two were chatting when Han Sanping, who was walking out beside them, suddenly interrupted and said, "After the casting begins, let Jianu follow you throughout the whole process and learn more from you so that she can lay a good foundation for directing TV dramas in the future..."

As soon as these words came out, Han Jianu immediately wilted.

She thinks she has no talent in being a director, and she doesn't like being a director. She only wants to do behind-the-scenes work or writing-related work.

However, her father insisted that she become a director, and often used Zhang Yimou's daughter Zhang Mo as a teaching material for her, which made her miserable!

However, when she looked to Fade Chen for help, she was stabbed in the back instead!

"Okay, when we get to the crew, if there are some unimportant scenes, I'll let her shoot them and I'll just be there to direct them. How can someone who graduated from a directing program not accumulate experience in directing movies?"

Han Sanping agreed with this statement very much. "I think so too. After this film is finished, I will let her direct it herself and make a representative film next year."

The two of them chatted with each other and directly treated Han Jianu as a "strong man".

"It's over! It's all over!"

Han Jianu was about to collapse at this moment, as she seemed to have already seen the "inhuman treatment" that she would encounter in the crew next.

……

As more and more people switch to become directors, netizens seem to be becoming immune to this situation.

In the afternoon, when the Film Bureau announced that the music, drama and comedy film "Sewing Machine Band" written by Dong Chengpeng had officially passed the review, it did not cause much discussion online.

Because many people's impression of Dong Chengpeng is still stuck on his first movie "The Pancake Man", so when "Sewing Machine Band" came out, everyone subconsciously thought that this was another cheesy, fusion-themed comedy movie.

Therefore, the number of people paying attention to it naturally decreased a lot.

Chen Fei smacked his lips and couldn't help but sigh: "Blind dates focus on first impressions and first sight, and the same is true for filming movies. The influence of a masterpiece will stay with you for a lifetime!"

On the other hand, the press release about the start of filming of the movie "Surfing the Waves" directed by Han Han attracted a lot of attention.

The lineup of Deng Chao and Peng Yuyan has already attracted a lot of traffic. In addition, Han Han's famous debut "See You Tomorrow" has a pretty good reputation, so many people have high expectations for his second movie.

As for Guo Jingming...his reputation has completely collapsed.

If the quality of "Jade Dynasty" is good enough, perhaps he can restore his reputation, but if it is still as bad as the "Tiny Times" series, then his career as a director will probably collapse completely!

After a night, it was the 29th.

Early in the morning, Weibo became lively because the comedy and romance film "Passing By Your World", exclusively produced by Guangguang, directed by Zhang Yibai, and starring Deng Chao, Bai Baihe, Yang Yang, Zhang Tianai, Yue Yunpeng, and Liu Yan, was officially launched for public screening.

Since there have been no good works in the theater market so far, "Passing by Your World" received strong support from theaters on the first day of its release!

When Chen Fei woke up in the morning, he saw the 46% screening schedule!
If nothing unexpected happens, the movie should have a very good box office result on the first day.

Turning back to watch "A Chinese Odyssey Part Three", the fun immediately began.

"A Chinese Odyssey Part Three, a comedy, romance and fantasy film directed by Liu Zhenwei and starring Han Geng, Tang Yan and Wu Jing, has been officially withdrawn from cinemas due to exhaustion of its box office potential, with a total box office of 3 million yuan."

In order to promote the movie, a long article was specially published, and then because of the long article, the movie was forced to be taken down by the theaters...

It has to be said that Liu Zhenwei's operation is unique in the entire history of Chinese-language films.

It would be fine if the movie was just forced to be taken down, but the key issue is that he was subjected to another wave of abuse from netizens!

"The world is going downhill, all kinds of monsters and demons dare to show up and hurt the eyes. I bet that the TV series "A Chinese Odyssey: Love You For Ten Thousand Years" directed by Liu Zhenwei must be very bad!"

"I never expected that gay men, lesbians, transvestites, and sexual perversions would appear in a domestic film. Damn it, is this really not a propaganda film about LGBT themes?"

"I suggest that the General Administration withdraw 'The Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons Strike Back' and send 'A Chinese Odyssey: Part Three' to compete for the Best Foreign Language Film Oscar. It will definitely win the award!"

"This sequel is so disgusting."

"I really want to vomit. Can you please stop rehashing old stuff? It's going to stink like hell if you keep rehashing it!"

Having seen too many negative reviews, Chen Fei decided to take a closer look.

At noon, after Liu Yifei got up, the two went straight to the nearby cinema and bought two tickets for the movie "Passing by Your World".

Although they had already watched it once at the premiere, the two still enjoyed it very much.

Especially Yue Yunpeng’s car chasing performance was really “wonderful”!
"Will we meet again, Swallow?
Be happy when we meet again, okay?
Swallow, you have to be happy, you have to be happy, okay?

Happy, blessed...

There will be no me in your world from now on... It doesn't matter, you have to be happy...

Swallow? Swallow! Swallow! How can I live without you... Swallow... Swallow ah ah ah!"

Liu Yifei started wiping away tears as she watched.

"Xiao Yueyue's scene was filmed really well!"

"Indeed, this scene was full of emotion, showing the face of a bootlicker to the fullest!"

Chen Fei agreed with approval, but then suddenly changed the subject: "It's a pity that this is the only part of the whole play that can be remembered deeply."
