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

Chapter 999: Lost in Hong Kong wrap party! New project? An emergency! Public opinion exploded!
With the end of the 19th, Monday of the new week has officially come to an end.

The next morning, the film and television industry became lively again!
"The fourth-day box office of the movie "The Great Wall" was revealed, with a comprehensive screening rate of 41.6%, a daily increase of 5309.41 million, and a comprehensive box office share of 38.6%... This result is obviously inconsistent with the expected box office."

"Lost in Hong Kong, the third film in the comedy series, produced by Feiyue Films, written, directed and acted by Wang Baoqiang, supervised by Ning Hao, and starring Huang Bo, Jiang Qinqin, Tong Liya and others, was officially announced to be completed in Hong Kong yesterday."

"The comedy and romance film "The Ferryman", produced by Alibaba Pictures, supervised by Wang Jiawei, directed by Zhang Yijia, and starring Tony Leung, Jin Chengwu, Eason Chan, Yang Ying, Zhang Rongrong and others, will hold its Asian premiere in Hong Kong at 7pm tonight."

Throughout the morning, major media outlets divided into three groups and carried out follow-up reports on the three movies "The Great Wall", "Lost in Hong Kong" and "The Ferryman".

In comparison, the popularity of "Lost in Hong Kong" is obviously lower. After all, the media only knew the news that the film was completed.

However, it’s quite lively over at “The Ferryman”.

Throughout the morning, many mainland stars and actors went to the airport to fly to Hong Kong.

Even Yang Ying, who had kept a low profile for several days due to the topic of "sky-high pay", showed up with Huang Xiaoming with a big belly.

The media originally wanted to gather around for an interview, but seeing Yang Ying's big belly, they didn't dare to squeeze in.

Coupled with the bodyguard team specially hired by Huang Xiaoming, many media could only watch the couple leave their sight.

Turning back to watching "The Great Wall", the "public opinion" is simply terrifying!
As the movie box office hit a new low, netizens who felt that "national dignity was violated" would naturally not let the movie go, and all kinds of ugly insults emerged one after another.

Although film critics have almost been "banned", the audience's right to speak cannot be banned. Even if a huge army of internet trolls come in to whitewash the film, they cannot cover up the surging public opinion.

Once "patriotism" is provoked and challenged, there will be many people who go crazy!
At this time, on the set of "Dying to Survive".

Ren Zhonglun looked at the online abuse of "The Great Wall" and subconsciously wiped the cold sweat from his forehead.

He was already getting nervous...

At this time, Han Jianu turned around and saw his action. She covered her mouth and laughed softly, "Uncle Ren, you have to be prepared. Railroad Tigers will be released in two days, and you will be scolded."

Ren Zhonglun rarely refuted, but kept sighing:
"I was making fun of La Peikang a few days ago, but I didn't expect the retribution to come so quickly."

"Haha, he didn't mean it, but you totally deserve it." Han Sanping showed her sharp tongue again, causing Ren Zhonglun's face to change.

However, Chairman Ren did not show any sign of remorse.

"In life, there are some things that you have to try even if you know they are wrong. If you want to survive in this circle, you have to stick up for your friends. Otherwise, who would want to be with you?"

No one refuted this statement. After all, rules and friendship are inherently vague under China's current national conditions, and it is difficult to find a clear line between the two.

At the same time, inside the Film Bureau.

Zhang Hong looked at La Peikang standing in front of him and sighed helplessly: "It's rare for you to come to me to beg for mercy, but since you have spoken, I will definitely give you this face.

I can extend the key for "The Great Wall" to February 2, which is the end of February.

But! The series of impacts caused, as well as the doubts from inside and outside the circle, all of these have to be resolved by you. "

"Okay, I understand, Director Zhang, thank you for your support."

La Peikang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thanked him and prepared to leave.

But at this time, Zhang Hong stopped him again: "Wait a minute, I have something to tell you."

"Director Zhang, just follow your orders."

“Starting from next year, when you cooperate with foreign film companies, I hope you will keep your eyes open and not foolishly fall into the traps set by others.

You should also know that the new White House official is not friendly to us, and the film and television industry is the face of a country, so we must not lose it, understand?"

La Peikang's expression instantly became serious upon hearing this, and he quickly assured, "Don't worry, Director Zhang! I will definitely keep my eyes open!"

After watching him leave for a long time, a faint sigh was heard in the office.

"You lack the ability to forge ahead, and your attitude towards upholding the truth and innovating is unstable... You are not up to the task!"

On the evening of the 20th, Chen Fei personally went to the airport to pick up the "Lost in Hong Kong" crew who were returning to the mainland on a chartered flight.

"Hey, Director Chen, why did you come here in person?"

As soon as he saw Chen Fei, Wang Baoqiang ran over immediately, unable to hide his excitement.

Behind him, Huang Bo, Jiang Qinqin, Tong Liya, Wang Xun and others hurriedly followed and greeted them enthusiastically.

"Director Chen, good evening!"

"Director Chen."

"Hey! Chen Fei? Yifei? Why are you two here?"

Looking at the crowd that came to greet them, Fade Chen said, "You are heroes. You have been away for more than three months and just returned. Of course I have to come to greet you in person."

Then he waved his hand to signal everyone to follow him: "There is a bus outside, follow me, the hotel has been booked for you, don't go home until you are drunk tonight, haha."

Suddenly, cheers broke out at the exit.

The reporters and paparazzi who had been waiting nearby had already gathered around and were busy pressing the shutter buttons.

There were quite a few reporters who wanted to squeeze in to ask a few questions, but faced with the surging crowd, they couldn't even break through the outer perimeter.

As all the crew members of "Lost in Hong Kong" left, real-time hot searches on Weibo have already topped the list.

"On the evening of the 20th, the entire crew of Lost in Hong Kong landed in the capital. Chen Fei and Liu Yifei came to greet them in person. It is reported that a wrap-up dinner will be held at a five-star hotel tonight."

It’s a bit regrettable that this hot search did not stay on the list for too long and was suppressed by the news of the premiere of "The Ferryman".

With the support of Alibaba Pictures, there is quite a bit of movement over there.

It is no exaggeration to say that most of the stars and actors in the entertainment industry flew to Hong Kong tonight just to catch a glimpse of "The Ferryman".

The dishes had been ordered in advance, so when Chen Fei led the "Lost in Hong Kong" crew to the hotel, delicious dishes were quickly served.

The good wine and delicious food immediately dispelled everyone's fatigue from the past few months. In addition, a room had already been booked upstairs, so naturally they ate and drank to their heart's content!
"Director Chen, I'd like to offer you a toast. Thank you for helping me realize my dream of becoming a director. I'll drink it. Please do as you please..."

Wang Baoqiang drank the full glass of wine in one gulp, and the gratitude in his words was almost overflowing.

Chen Fei drank a cup with him. After he sat down, he patted his shoulder and said comfortingly, "I have heard about your mother's situation. If you need any help, please speak up as soon as possible. I can help you contact any medical institution, whether it is domestic or foreign."

“Thank you for your kindness.” Wang Baoqiang forced a smile and pretended to be strong, “It’s already the late stage of brain tumor. I’ve seen doctors both at home and abroad, but it’s useless.

I want to finish the post-production of Lost in Hong Kong right now, and take her to see the movie after it’s released, so she can know that her son has become a great director, haha!”

"Well, if you have any difficulties in the later stage, you can go to Mr. Su. I have already told him, and he will help you throughout the process."

"Okay." Wang Baoqiang responded, picked up the wine glass, and drank another glass of wine.

During this time, many people came to toast him, and he accepted all of them...and as a result, he fell down drunk in a short while.

Chen Fei called over two brothers who were in charge of carrying props in the crew, and helped him to the room.

Tong Liya was worried, so she apologized and went to take care of Baoqiang.

"Well, it's not easy for Baoqiang either. He went from being a small extra to now being a director. I don't know how much hardship he has endured over the years to finally climb to this position." Huang Bo came over and said with emotion.

Chen Fei turned his head and looked at him with a smile, and teased: "I heard from Ning Hao before that you wrote a movie script yourself?" "Hey? Director Ning is such a big mouth, how come you tell everything?" Huang Bo pretended to be very angry.

"Come, have a drink." Fade Chen raised his glass and clinked it with his, then said bluntly, "If you have any problems, just come to me. There's no need for us to be so polite.

Ning Hao has told me before that your script is pretty good. If there is any gap in investment, Feiyue Film and Television can fill it for you at any time."

"Hey, then I won't be polite."

Fade Chen gave him a look of disdain: "I didn't ask you to be polite anyway."

Huang Bo nodded. "In two days, I will perfect the script and complete the project book, and then I will go to you to solicit investment."

"Okay, call ahead when you come over."

"Well, don't worry, I will."

……

After the wrap party ended, it was already past 11 o'clock in the evening.

After bidding farewell to the crew of "Lost in Hong Kong", Chen Fei and Liu Yifei got in the car together and headed straight to the villa.

Read the error-free version at 69shuba! 6=9+shu_ba is the first to publish this novel.

In the car, Miss Liu suddenly said, "Tong Liya just told me that she will marry Baoqiang after the movie 'Lost in Hong Kong' starring them is officially released."

"Oh?" Chen Fei's eyes lit up: "Is this the end of my cultivation?"

"Yeah, they've been dating for several years and now they've opened a studio. They can be said to be successful in their careers, so it's time for them to talk about marriage."

"Well, it is indeed time... It is the same for both of us. It is time too. I will marry you next year."

Liu Yifei blushed and raised her chin with a hum: "Humph, I don't want to marry you."

"That's not up to you. Even if I have to force you to come home, I will do it."

Time passed quickly while we played and laughed, and before we knew it we were home.

"I'm going to take a shower first, you're not allowed to come in, you can take a shower after I'm done!"

After saying this, Liu Yifei ran into the bedroom to change clothes.

"Don't lock the door!"

Fade Chen shouted at her back, then turned and went to the kitchen. While making tea, he took out his phone and checked the news.

Weibo is now full of news about the successful conclusion of the premiere of "The Ferryman". Looking around, almost all the industry insiders present were praising how good the movie was.

Including many film critics who have just applied for small accounts, they have given it extremely high praise.

The media outlets were more enthusiastic than one another, and related reports kept emerging.

"Tonight, the movie "The Ferryman" produced by Wong Kar-wai and directed by Zhang Jiajia held a grand premiere in Hong Kong. The film brought together many stars such as Tony Leung Chiu-wai, Takeshi Kaneshiro, Chan Yi-shun, Angelababy (Yang Ying), etc. The premiere was star-studded and the atmosphere was warm, triggering screams from fans!"

"At the event, the film's creators interacted closely with the audience, sharing interesting stories and experiences during the filming process, which caused laughter and applause from the audience."

"Many celebrity guests at the scene spoke highly of the film, believing that it was not only hilarious but also emotionally touching. Many viewers said that the love experience and inspirational themes in the film made them feel warm, and it was a masterpiece worth watching again and again.

"Many experts in the industry are full of expectations for the box office prospects of The Ferryman. It is reported that the film will be released in major theaters across the country on the 23rd. I believe that it will surely set off a wave of movie-watching enthusiasm by then."

"As the atmosphere at the premiere grew intense, Zhang Qi, president of Alibaba Pictures, revealed that the production cost of The Ferryman was as high as 4.3 million yuan, and the expected box office is 20 billion yuan. This undoubtedly proves that the film will become one of the top masterpieces during this year's Lunar New Year holiday!"

In the living room of the villa, Fade Chen almost spit out his tea!
“It cost 4.3 million to make this crap???”

He was really shocked. After all, the production cost of "The Wandering Earth" was only 6 million yuan. How could "The Ferryman" cost 4.3 million yuan?

It's a romantic and comedy drama, not a special effects blockbuster, and it's not in lMAX format. How could it cost so much money?

“Is this money so hard to launder?”

He didn't believe that Yang Ying could get a sky-high salary of 8000 million for this movie, so the result could only be what he guessed.

Shaking his dizzy head, Fade Chen turned off his phone and went straight to the bathroom, ready to take a shower with Liu Yifei.

He really had no interest in continuing to watch it, and he still expected the box office to be 20 billion? Such exaggerated data is only what the "leeks" in the stock market like to hear.

To him, this was complete nonsense!

……

After a night, it was the 21th.

"Operation Red Sea" successfully broke the box office records of "Detective Chinatown 2" and "Operation Mekong" today, and won a total box office of 37.02 billion!
But unfortunately, the film’s daily box office can no longer continue to reach the 1 million mark.

However, in comparison, the Sino-US co-produced fantasy blockbuster "The Great Wall", which has just been released for 5 days, is even worse!
After the box office plummeted to 5309 million, "A New Day" plummeted another full 1247 million, closing at only 4062 million.

Although the two investors, China Film and LeTV, are still making every effort to promote the film, no matter how hard they try, they cannot save "The Great Wall" from its current tragic ending.

However, they did not get scolded much today, because all netizens on the Internet, and even everyone in the entire entertainment industry, are now focusing their attention on Hong Kong!

Of course, no one would be so bored as to read all the press releases about "The Ferryman".

The hot search that really attracted the attention of the whole nation actually came from the dinner after the premiere of "The Ferryman".

As expected, the short, playful old rogue got drunk again last night, and revealed a shocking piece of news!
When the media interviewed him about his son Zeng Guoxiang's literary romance film "Soulmate" which received great reviews and won many awards, a lewd smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"Xiao Yu'er... she's a nice person. I've already taken advantage of her..."

As soon as these words were spoken, all the reporters and paparazzi at the scene were stunned.

And the moment they reacted, they were completely shocked!

Although Zeng Guoxiang, who was standing next to him, arranged for someone to drag him away forcibly the next second, saying that "my dad drank too much and started talking nonsense", he still failed to stop the spread of this sentence.

The paparazzi’s faces were filled with joy, after all, this “melon” was so explosive!

The new Golden Horse Film Queen actually... If this news were to get out, it would definitely cause a sensation in the mainland, Hong Kong, and Taiwan entertainment industries.

And now the facts have proved that the entire network was indeed shocked!
At the same time, everyone finally understood why the former was so bold as to imply the latter who relied on Xiying during the Golden Horse Awards ceremony held earlier.

With such a strong thigh by your side, won't you start to act recklessly?
Although the woman issued a public letter early in the morning to refute the rumors and strongly requested all major media not to continue spreading and slandering them.

But this request does not seem to be harmful at all to the paparazzi.

So, what should be spread is still being spread, what should be discussed is still being discussed, and what should be ridiculed is still being ridiculed.

"I have to say, that person has a really strong taste!"

"With neither breasts nor buttocks, what's the point of having such a secret rule? I'm wondering, how can you bring yourself to do that?"

"After eating too much meat, you may need some vegetarian dishes to change your taste. This is understandable."

"I wonder how she won the Golden Horse Award so easily. With someone backing her up, it must be a sure win, right?"

"Why issue a rumor-refuting announcement? Everyone knows that the guy in Hong Kong is the best at this. Now that he has admitted it, why don't you just give in to him?"

The netizens’ words were more vicious than each other, and their sarcastic remarks were like knives cutting straight into the woman’s heart!

Coupled with the efforts of its competitors, the influence of the public opinion storm has undoubtedly increased, so that the heat is getting higher and higher! More and more exaggerated!
At this point, if the people behind her finally choose not to help, then this "Golden Horse Film Queen" who was born as a "Mou Girl" will be completely finished!
