Chapter 255: Withdrawal!
March 2nd.
There was a light rain outside the window.
Feng Kai stared at the ceiling in a daze, looking at the lamp on the ceiling for a long time.
The lid of the antidepressant pill bottle on the table opened and closed, and opened again every few minutes......
But in the end, I didn't eat it again.
His emotions were chaotic.
The whole person is obviously very tired, every cell in the body is full of fatigue, but the spirit is extremely excited, in the first half of the night, he kept holding a laptop and watching all kinds of praise from netizens for "Jin Yiwei", and when the box office results came out in the second half of the night, that kind of excitement turned into a loss again, obviously reminding himself over and over again that it was time to sleep, but as soon as he closed his eyes, he thought of the ups and downs of "Jin Yiwei" these days, and reason told him that he should take antidepressant drugs to block the imbalance of emotions, but somehow after getting the medicine, But he put it back......
The box office of "Jin Yiwei" actually exceeded expectations.
Half a day, and it's not a big name production, and I expect it to be about two million.
Five million box office, he didn't even dare to think about it before!
The total investment is only 7 million, and you can get 5 million in half a day, what more bicycle do you need?
But when he saw Django's seventeen million, the mixed emotions of loss came spontaneously.
The sensitive emotions of depression are like a fluttering kite string, any wind and grass can make Feng Kai's emotions turn upside down, and then, in the earth-shaking changes, he will gradually think in a worse and more extreme direction......
Django!
He is a leader of the younger generation of directors.
By the time Feng Kai graduated, Django had already made a name for himself with several big productions.
has representative works, became famous early, joined the Directors Guild even earlier, and after a few movies, the personal box office has already exceeded 100 million, and among the directors of the younger generation, there are really few who can do him.
Feng Kai's most inflated moment was not to surpass Django, but to become a director who was not inferior to Django.
"Cyborg" is undoubtedly another blockbuster.
With the cards of the "Superman" lineup, the blessing of the Hollywood special effects team, and the escort of the five generations of Chinese directors, it is difficult for "Mechanical Man" to hit the streets.
In a sense......
There is indeed a gap between "Jinyiwei" and "Cyborg".
I'm already pretty good!
It's already amazing!
And it's only the first day of the premiere, and the next wins and losses may not be known!
Time passes little by little.
Feng Kai heard that the rain outside the window had stopped, and a meter of sunlight seeped through the curtains.
A night of tossing and turning made Feng Kai's mind dizzy.
He turned his head and felt the one meter of sunlight, and the low gloom finally began to brighten.
He finally got out of bed, went to the bathroom, washed up, and looked at himself in the mirror.
Under those tired dark circles, there was still a sense of loss.
His phone rang.
His assistant Zhang Meiling sent him the latest news from the Directors Guild.
When he saw the latest news, his face changed slightly, and his originally lost mood was stunned at first.
"Django is vice president?"
"Didn't you say Zhou Yang before?"
"Didn't you swear to say Zhou Yang!"
"Why did you sneak up on it in the middle of the night!"
"What does that mean!"
He gasped, and his originally lost mood instantly turned into anger, and he began to become hideous in the mirror.
Subsequently, he received a phone call.
The call was from the Huaxia Directors Association, and the content was that as one of the members of the Huaxia Directors Association, he must be there today, and then discuss the association's plans for the invasion of Hollywood blockbusters in the first half of 07.
Feng Kai's face was extremely gloomy after answering the phone.
Said it was arranged, but who didn't know that it was to meet Django, the new leader?
………………………………
Eight o'clock in the morning.
In the conference room of the Huaxia Directors Association at the Yanjing Hotel, a group of young people followed the older generation of directors to sit down one by one.
The bright sun shone on the entire huge conference room, and Django was dressed decently today, and he also had a bright smile on his face at this time, when he was usually not emotional.
"Is Zhou Yang here?"
"Not ...... yet"
"What about the others?"
"Everyone else is basically here, and Feng Kai is also here."
"Good!"
The assistant whispered along with Django, Django nodded after listening, then glanced in Feng Kai's direction, and greeted Feng Kai with a smile on his face.
Feng Kai rarely attends meetings of the Huaxia Directors Guild.
In the early years, these people did not invite him, and he was not qualified to participate at all, and later after falling out with a few people at that meeting, he was trampled on the ground and could not even struggle.
This time, the directors' association was unusually harmonious, Django shook hands with him with a smile, and praised "Brocade Guard" for being particularly well filmed, and even skillfully said the plot of the whole movie and some details of the shooting, it is obvious that Django has done his homework.
After Feng Kaipi dealt with Django with a smile, he found that other veteran directors who were not on the right path with him also came over, and even Cao Bangguo looked at him with a smile, saying something like a hero out of a teenager, and after finishing speaking, he looked at his eyes with great appreciation, and his movements were also very close, if it weren't for Feng Kai when he was at the bottom, he was used to seeing too many ups and downs, he even felt that he was recognized by everyone.
Feng Kai looked around.
This time, the number of people in the meeting was very uniform, and even some people who did not appear often such as Wang Shuai and Shen Changwei came......
The meeting was soon underway!
After a round of warm applause, Django bowed to everyone, and took out the schedule with a radiant face, and began to sit next to the main seat, talking about the arrangements above and a series of grim situations of this year's imported blockbusters.
Feng Kai was absent-minded the whole time, thinking about something in his heart.
After Django finished speaking, he looked at everyone with a smile on his face: "Today's protagonist was originally Director Zhou Yang, he just came back from the United States, and he can take us to see the style of the Oscars, I am very eager to exchange shooting experiences with Director Zhou, but unfortunately, maybe Director Zhou is too tired, and the phone has been turned off......
After Django finished speaking, Feng Kai saw that there was an empty seat not far away, and it was also the only empty seat on the scene, with the word "Zhou Yang" written on it.
After staring at it for a moment, he looked at Django again, who was talking from the throne.
He felt sick and stopped looking at him.
But......
He didn't want to see Django, but Django wanted to mention Feng Kai.
Django mentioned some of Feng Kai's past movies, including "Brothers" and "Shocking Sea", two films directed by Feng Kai independently, were pulled out by Django and praised fiercely.
There were bursts of applause at the scene, and in the applause, except for Shen Changwei and Wang Shuai, Feng Kai felt that everyone's attitude towards him was completely different from before......
He didn't know what the hell they were going to do.
"Director Feng, I very sincerely invite you to serve as the director of the Huaxia Film Association and shine for the revitalization of Huaxia films, what do you think?"
Feng Kai was stunned.
He couldn't believe it.
Django's expression was extremely sincere, there was no disguise in sight, and at the same time, his smile was very bright.
"The future situation is too grim, Director Feng, let him disappear from the previous ups and downs! In any case, everyone is a part of the Huaxia Film Association, and I hope that everyone can put aside their previous suspicions, unite and unite with the outside world! The era of Hollywood is coming to an end! ”
The sudden hype made Feng Kai unbelievable.
He heard applause, very enthusiastic applause.
He was stunned for a long time, as if it was a dream.
Obviously, this is a great thing, after becoming a director, he can participate in the big and small things of the Huaxia Film Association and fully express his opinions......
This is what all the young generation of Chinese directors dream of!
But I don't know why, at this moment, Feng Kai found that he didn't have any joy, not even any excitement, not even a trace of too many fluctuations.
He didn't know what was wrong with him.
Everyone was waiting for his reply.
He glanced uncontrollably at the empty spot not far away, and he didn't know what was going on.
Just then, a text message appeared on his phone.
He glanced down at the text message.
The text message was sent by Zhou Yang.
"Director Feng, where are you? Is it convenient for the phone? ”
When he finished reading the text message, his complicated emotions instantly turned into a burst of indescribable joy, he hesitated for a moment, and then glanced at Django.
"President Jiang, I'll go out and answer the phone."
"Good!"
The meeting of the Huaxia Directors Association has been open, and this time the mood of the meeting was very high, and many young directors expressed excitement and gratitude.
Feng Kai walked away from the conference room and into the bathroom, and he called Zhou Yang back.
"Director Feng, there are some things in the information of the Huaxia Young Directors Association that I won't fill in...... I don't understand a lot of technical terms, why don't you help me see them? ”
"Mr. Zhou, what does the Young Directors Association mean?"
"Oh, it's the above arrangement, probably to give me a little power, let me get a similar young director association on the basis of the Huaxia Directors Association, at the same level as the Huaxia Directors Association, and apply for some benefits a little faster in the future......"
"Ahh
……………………
Half an hour later.
Feng Kai walked into the conference room again.
What was once a complicated emotion is starting to get a little high.
He seemed to be clothed with an inexplicable brilliance, and his steps became incomparably lighter.
"Director Feng, what are you thinking about?"
"Director Jiang, I'm sorry, I don't have any interest in the directors of the Huaxia Directors Association......"
"Oh, that's a shame......" Django was stunned for a moment, then smiled regretfully.
"Director Jiang, President Zhou, President Feng, and all the seniors, colleagues, I hesitated and thought about it again and again, and finally made a difficult decision, I feel that my ability is limited, and I really have no shame to stay in the Huaxia Directors Association any longer, this is my application for withdrawal, I hope the leaders will approve it!" Feng Kai didn't feel any regrets, he looked around at everyone, and finally fixed his eyes on the chairman's seat......
He looked at Feng Minrui, President Feng.
Subsequently......
Under everyone's stunned and incredulous gaze, he handed out a withdrawal application.
