Compared with the undercurrent of other industries, the entertainment industry in 04 still presents a situation where you sing and I appear.

On February 3, the actor surnamed Wu was tragically kidnapped by kidnappers, and after 23 hours of rescue, he was successfully rescued in the early morning of the next day.

This should be regarded as the most sensational event in the first half of the year!

Immediately followed by the news that "Baolian Lantern" and "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" were completed one after another.

The difference in investment between the two dramas is not big, but unfortunately the word-of-mouth differentiation is very fierce.

The former is produced by Yang Ma and has received rave reviews, and the news reports are almost all praise, with few ridicule and black material.

But the latter seems to have offended people, and almost every day they can find news of hacking on portals or entertainment newspapers.

Especially the male protagonist Hu Ge and the female protagonist Liu Yifei.

Since the crew's makeup photos came out, the ridicule about the two on the Internet has not stopped, and those abusive words made Chen Fei frown when he saw it.

However, Miss Liu's mentality is quite good, and every time she talks on the phone, her voice is almost full of joy.

Occasionally, when Chen Fei mentioned the matter of black material, she just smiled and said that she has rarely been on the Internet recently.

can scold an Internet addicted girl who often surfs secretly to the point that she doesn't continue to surf the Internet, you can imagine how terrifying these black materials are!

"I wish you a great box office hit! It's time to treat yourself! ”

"Okay, what do you want to eat? I happen to have time in the evening, go along? ”

"Not now, I'm not in Kyoto, Zhang Dabeard's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has begun to prepare, and I'm waiting for the audition in Hengdian."

Condor Heroes?!

Chen Fei was stunned for a moment, and reacted in hindsight.

If memory serves, Zhang Jizhong seems to have called him before and asked him if he had any free time to audition for the role of Yang Guo.

It's just that Chen Fei was filming "Crazy Stone" immediately, so he pushed the invitation.

"Why are you still auditioning? Isn't it over in February? ”

Chen Fei was a little puzzled, this is already May, what is this beard going to do? Can't you set the protagonist for three months?

"Who knows about him, this man is very strange." Liu Yifei couldn't help but complain: "He set up four links: the first test, the second test, the third test, and the final test.

This will just come to the third audition, and if you want to set a good actor, it is estimated that you will have to go to September, which is more troublesome than the art exam! ”

"Hey? This old man is doing everything for the sake of popularity! ”

Chen Fei shook his head a little speechlessly.

After hearing this "four test links", he immediately understood that Zhang Dabeard was going to completely stir up the heat of the Condor!

The pinnacle of filming?

With a hint of mockery on his face, Chen Fei asked casually: "Who are the actresses in the third audition?" ”

On the other end of the phone, Liu Yifei thought for a while and replied: "I saw Huayi's two Bingbing, as well as Zhang Ziyi, Zhou Xun, Xu Jinglei, and many senior sisters from Nortel and Chinese opera." ”

"Good fellows? Sidan Shuangbing is gone! ”

Chen Fei couldn't hold back for a while, secretly surprised in his heart.

Zhang Dabeard's marketing method is not to be said, no matter who gets the role of "Little Dragon Girl" in the end, this wave of popularity has been filled!

At this time, Liu Yifei on the other end of the phone suddenly asked: "I also heard Director Zhang say that he wants to invite you to audition for "Yang Guo", do you want to come?" ”

"For the time being, ......" Chen Fei was about to shake his head and refuse, but the next second, a wicked smile suddenly appeared on his face, and he asked rhetorically: "Do you want me to go?" ”

This sudden question made Liu Yifei stunned, and her cheeks were instantly dyed with a touch of crimson!

She opened her mouth, but she didn't know what to say.

The godfather is already helping her, and if nothing else, the role of "Little Dragon Girl" will belong to her.

As for who "Yang Guo" is, there is no quasi-letter so far, anyway, almost all the male stars of the right age she can think of come to try to cross.

She watched a lot of male actors, but she didn't feel anything.

In the past few years since her debut, among the male artists she has worked with, Chen Fei is the only one who can make her feel excited.

If Chen Fei is asked to play "Yang Guo", ......

Seems to be very good!

The screenwriter called her some time ago to ask if she could accept the kiss scene.

If it was Chen Fei, it didn't seem unacceptable......

Thinking about it, her face suddenly turned even redder.

Subconsciously looked around, and after making sure that her mother was not in the room, she lowered her voice and whispered, "I will be very happy if you can come." ”

"The host is calling me, I still have a talk show here, let's talk again when we have time."

Chen Fei laughed evilly, deliberately ignored her, and hung up the phone directly.

Hengdian, a four-star hotel.

Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Liu Yifei's face became more and more ruddy.

"What did I just say? What did I just say! Why would I say such a thing? Did he misunderstand something......"

At this moment, the girl's heart seemed to be a little messy.

……

Inside the studio.

Seeing Chen Fei's face showing a very proud look, Huang Bo, Zhu Yanwen, Luo Jin, Wang Luodan and others who recorded the show with him looked at him in wonder.

"Is there anything good? How did you get like this when you answered the phone? ”

"It's okay, let's record it quickly, I still have to go to Zhongying after I'm done here."

"Oh, good!"

A busy morning passed quickly.

After the interview, Chen Fei went straight to China Film Group.

But as soon as he walked into the office, he saw Han Sanping holding a newspaper in his hand, his brows furrowed.

"Mr. Han? Did something happen? ”

Han Sanping glanced up at him, her brows relaxed slightly, and she handed over the newspaper.

"See for yourself."

This is an entertainment newspaper, which is divided into four sides, and each side will have a large hot news headline, as well as many subheadlines.

[Rookie actor Chen Fei directed and acted in the movie "Crazy Stone" will be released tomorrow, Zhang Yimou, Feng Xiaogang, and Zhou Xingchi have made cameos one after another, can they break the box office record of 61 million in "Buried Alive"? 】

[The casting of "The Condor Heroes" is suspected to be set, the male protagonist will use Wang Yapeng, and the female protagonist will use Zhou Xun. 】

The first two news headlines are quite normal, but when Chen Fei turned to the back, his eyebrows suddenly raised.

[Zero Point Band - Da Mao, Ermao Incident ......]

["Tattoo fans" chase stars, obsessively waiting, "loyal" is "slapping and serving"! ] 】

"Tsk, this group of singers played quite a lot, and they made a performance for the paparazzi."

Han Sanping didn't respond, just stared at Chen Fei directly, his eyes were quite complicated.

Chen Fei was a little hairy by him, and hurriedly said: "Mr. Han, don't look at me with such eyes, I never touch that thing." ”

"I know." Han Sanping nodded, and said in a trance: "I just suddenly found that you people who are engaged in literature and art seem to have more or less quirks. ”

Chen Fei shrugged, "This is not an excuse for breaking the law and committing crimes, these people should be banned!" ”

"Alright, let's not talk about that."

Han Sanping terminated the topic in time, and the topic changed and directly involved "Crazy Stone".

"I discussed with Mr. Ren and Mr. He, how about holding a premiere for Shi tomorrow?"

Premiere ???

After pondering for a while, Chen Fei shook his head and refused: "Forget it, don't rush to grandma's house at that time, our faces are ugly." ”

Han Sanping wanted to say something, but was directly interrupted by Chen Fei: "Let's talk about it after the release, if the box office is good enough, you can hold a celebration banquet." ”

"Okay, you're the director, you have the final say."

…

After leaving from Zhongying, Chen Fei returned to school that afternoon.

"Teacher Zhao, please inform the teachers and students of the school, I have chartered two theaters near the school, and students who are interested in going to the movies can enter the hospital to watch it with their student ID."

"Okay."

Lao Zhao agreed very happily.

The movie directed and acted by his own students is about to be released, and as a counselor, his face is bright.

This wave he pretended!

On May 1st, "Crazy Stone" officially landed in theaters nationwide, and the number of films occupied the first place in the same period.

With "Buried Alive" as the foundation, the bosses of major private theaters are still very confident in Chen Fei's new movie.

If a movie can reap a high box office, correspondingly, they will also be able to share more profits.

On this day, Chen Fei led a group of main creative staff of the stone crew to a movie theater farthest away from downtown Kyoto.

Zhu Yanwen is still a little puzzled, why do you have to go so far to watch a movie?

There are already two theaters near the school, isn't it enough to see it?

A little speechless glanced at him, Chen Fei complained: "I call this market research, do you understand, observing the attendance rate of remote areas, you can get a similar box office data, understand?" ”

"I understand, I understand!" Zhu Yanwen made a look of sudden realization.

A group of people walked into the theater with a smile, and as far as the eye could see, almost half of the posters on the wall belonged to "Crazy Stone".

When he came to the ticket office, Chen Fei consulted the conductor, and when he heard that there were six screenings scheduled today, he couldn't help but feel a little emotional.

Although this era is in a state of economic recovery, the competition in the film industry is really small.

If this is put in 23 years, the May Day holiday will not be crowded?

After buying a few tickets for the most recent movie shows, everyone walked into the screening room.

As soon as I entered the door, I saw that the seats inside were already more than half full.

Liu Ye's eyes lit up: "Huh? That's a good attendance! ”

Guo Tao, who was standing next to him, nodded and agreed: "It's really good, it's estimated to explode." ”

A group of people quickly sat down and waited for the movie to show.

Chen Fei roughly recorded that in the 106-minute film, he heard at least 200 bursts of laughter from the audience.

In this day and age, this kind of comedy-style film with elaborate dialogue and witty humor is rare.

"Crazy Stone" is positioned in the popular comedy mode, and absorbs the latest postmodern comedy shooting techniques from abroad, combined with the comedy techniques and atmosphere of traditional Chinese culture, creating a refreshing and unique look for fans.

After coming out of the cinema, Chen Fei went back to school with Zhu Yanwen, Luo Jin, and Wang Luodan.

The publicity has come to an end for the time being, and then it is time for word-of-mouth to continue to ferment and the box office data on the first day.

"Chen Fei? Are you nervous? ”

In the dormitory, Zhu Yanwen kept walking back and forth on the ground, and the whole person had an indescribable sense of urgency.

"Nervous what? When the box office of 61 million came out last year, I didn't just do what I should do? ”

"Cut, I won't tell you." Zhu Yanwen glanced at him, and went to toss Luo Jin again.

There are only three of them left in the dormitory, and Zhang Lu moved out at the beginning of the new semester of his sophomore year.

After not seeing each other for a long time, the three of them drifted away from him.

Zhu Yanwen was very excited, and on the day Zhang Lu moved away, he shouted with great interest: "The vacant bed is just enough to put suitcases, it's too humid under the bed, and there are insects." ”

In the evening, the three of them had a simple bite and then went back to the dormitory.

Accurate single-day box office data will not appear until 6 o'clock in the morning, which will be useless except for being anxious, it is better to get a good night's sleep.

At ten o'clock in the evening, after answering a few phone calls, Chen Fei fell asleep by himself.

Zhu Yanwen and Luo Jin were still in front of the computer to watch the news that broke out on the portal, laughing heartily from time to time, and being angry from time to time!

Gradually, it got darker......

I don't know how long it took, Chen Fei suddenly felt someone pushing his arm, accompanied by a hurried shout:

"Chen Fei! Chen Fei! Wake up! Wake up! The first-day box office data has appeared! ”

"Huh?"

Opening his eyes in a daze, and glancing at Zhu Yanwen, who was staring at two dark circles under his eyes, Chen Fei couldn't help but ask curiously, "How much?" ”

"The box office on the first day, 10.96 million!"

"? How much! ”

Chen Fei's eyes widened sharply, with a look of disbelief.

"10.96 million! Exploded! It was a complete explosion! ”

"I'll be a good girl!"

Chen Fei muttered to himself, very glad that he had strongly requested the increase in the number of copies and the decision to increase the publicity expenses.

The box office broke 10 million on the first day, which has proved one point, as long as the follow-up word-of-mouth does not collapse and the number of films continues to increase, then breaking 100 million will no longer be a fantasy!

"Jingle Bell ......"

The shrill ringing of the phone suddenly attracted Chen Fei's attention.

Looking down, I saw a name displayed on the screen of my phone.

Han Sanping!

"Mr. Han ......"

Answering the phone, Chen Fei was just about to say something, when he heard Han Sanping laughing on the other end of the phone: "If nothing else, after May, you will become a real first-line commercial film director in the mainland!"

Chen Fei, you kid is going to be on fire! ”

"Haha, then I will thank Mr. Han in advance for his encouragement."

As soon as I hung up the phone, the calls of Shangying, Emei, Zhang Yimou, Feng Xiaogang, Zhou Xingchi and others came in one after another.

Not surprisingly, they are all here to congratulate him.

The next day, under the arrangement of China Film, Chen Fei led a group of people to start propaganda again.

Seven days passed quickly, and Nortel began to resume classes on May 8.

On this day, many students who came back from other places suddenly found that the outside of the school gate, which should have been peaceful, suddenly became lively.

Journalists, paparazzi, website editors......

Dozens of people gathered together, as if waiting for something.

I was more curious and went over to inquire, and then I was surprised to find that these people actually came to interview Chen Fei!

After careful questioning, a group of people at the school gate were completely confused!

Just after the May 17 holiday, the box office of "Crazy Stone" has exceeded 75 million!

Chen Fei really succeeded in breaking the box office record of 61 million he set last year, and is moving towards the 100 million mark!

If nothing else, this result will be achieved by May 15.

At that time, there will be one more person in the ranks of directors with 100 million yuan in the mainland!

Suddenly, the entire film and television industry seemed to have pressed the pause button at this moment, and countless people were waiting for that exciting moment to come!

Breaking 100 million is close at hand!
