108, just got up? Give Lu Chutaro eye medicine!
"How did you call those people from "Spider-Man 2" to China?"
In the office of China Film Group, Han Sanping looked at Chen Fei with a look of surprise.
As an imported film, "Spider-Man 2" will be released on August 5 in the mainland, two months away.
Han Sanping contacted Hollywood before and asked if the other party wanted to do a wave of publicity in China, but was rejected by Columbia.
They are not optimistic about the domestic market and believe that propaganda will not have much effect at all.
Therefore, the main creative team of Spider-Man has no plan to come to China to participate in the promotion.
But I never expected that without everyone's knowledge, Sam and others would appear at Kyoto Airport!
The reporters who were guarding the airport at the time were terrified.
That's a Hollywood guy!
Under normal circumstances, aren't they all domestic stars and film and television companies rushing to Hollywood? Why is there such a sudden and unprecedented change today?
Just when the reporters were still confused, Chen Fei suddenly appeared as the "pick-up person"!
From their conversations, the reporters soon learned that these Hollywood directors and stars actually came at the invitation of Chen Fei.
In an instant, one stone stirred up a thousand waves!
Everyone knows the news that Chen Fei went to Hollywood last year to serve as the action director of "Spider-Man 2", but everyone thinks that he is just directing the action.
But now, it seems that his relationship with Hollywood is not so simple!
Facing the curious eyes of Han Sanping and others, Chen Fei shrugged his shoulders and replied casually: "They happened to be doing propaganda in South Korea and Japan a few days ago, so I proposed to let them come to China to have a look."
It just so happened that the group was very interested in our ancient civilization with a cultural history of 5,000 years, so they came. ”
"It's as simple as that?" Ren Zhonglun had a look of disbelief.
"It's as simple as that." Chen Fei nodded affirmatively,
What foreigner would refuse a country where everyone knows "kung fu" and there are "giant pandas" everywhere?
When they were sent away, everyone had a look of reluctance.
There are so many beautiful scenery and delicious food in this vast land of China that they have a very strong sense of reluctance.
If it weren't for the fact that there was still a lot of propaganda work, they would never have left so soon!
Although some did not believe this reason, because there was no way to verify it, everyone quickly diverted from the topic.
Negotiations for the sale of exports, distributions, copyrights, and adaptations have begun again.
As Han Sanping said before, this time is different from the past!
When the box office was 75 million, you were too expensive, but now it has soared directly to 150 million box office, so the corresponding expenses will naturally have to rise.
For a while, the representatives of film and television distribution companies in Japan and South Korea were like eating, and their faces were extremely ugly.
But at this point, they had no choice but to break their teeth and swallow them in their stomachs.
Just like Han Sanping said before, the opportunity is fleeting, if you can't grasp it, then ......
- Add money!
After the distribution was completed, Chen Fei left China Film.
The follow-up account sharing will be accounted for by Zhongying, Shangying, Emei, and the company's two financers, and he only needs to watch the bank card number continue to grow.
In the next few days, Chen Fei received reporters from the three major web portals, the Six Princesses, and major entertainment newspapers and magazines.
For the fact that he has become the only director of the 100 million yuan box office club in China at a young age, many reporters expressed their amazement!
"Director Chen, a 20-year-old box office director with 100 million yuan, this is still the only one in China, can you briefly talk about your feelings in recent days?"
"Haha, I feel very happy, the box office hit is a testament to my ability and gives me a lot of confidence."
"Do you have any plans for the future?"
"Not yet, let's prepare to focus on your studies next, after all, only by maintaining sufficient learning can we have better outputs."
"How did you come up with the script for Stone? This kind of three-line parallel, witty and humorous style seems to have never appeared in China. ”
"This is also a bold innovation, I have watched a lot of Hollywood comedies, combined with some happy pictures in my past life, and naturally I have this script."
Anyway, it's just making things up, and for the reporter's questions, Chen Fei's main focus is a fool.
It's just that the interviews in the early stage are quite normal, and when I meet some reporters from middle and lower-class entertainment newspapers, the problems become more and more sharp.
"An old professor of Chinese opera made a public statement, saying that the whole film feels more like a farce than a comedy, the story is relatively shallow, and it feels like it is just a creation to cater to the box office, what do you think about this?"
Chinese opera?
Old professor?
The corners of Chen Fei's mouth raised slightly, facing the camera, with a smile on his face: "After all, this is just my practice, and there may be some shortcomings."
I will humbly accept the criticism of the old professor, and strive to create a work with a strong sense of story next time. ”
Practicing handicraft?
Hearing these three words, the reporter on the opposite side almost couldn't hold back.
The works that people have won 150 million box office are just used to practice their hands, what qualifications do you have as an old professor to criticize publicly?
This reply may seem humble and polite, but the irony is extremely strong!
The reporter kept his mouth shut very interestingly, and it was enough to support the front page headlines of their newspapers for at least three days.
The next reporter quickly came up.
"Director Chen, what do you think of the speech of Lu Chuan, the senior brother of the school's directing department?"
Lu Chuan?
Hearing this name, Chen Fei's face suddenly turned cold.
This guy is like a bedbug who wants to smoke anyone!
Just a few days ago, when the total box office of "Crazy Stone" suddenly reached 150 million, everyone was congratulating, but this guy was the only one who "spewed feces all over his mouth" in front of reporters.
"Regardless of the truth or falsity of the box office data, a sophomore changed his career to become a director without a little experience? I don't believe it anyway.
I've heard that during the filming, the two directors, Ning Hao and Zhang Yimou, stayed on the set almost every day.
And Feng Xiaogang and Zhou Xingchi arrived one after another, these are all famous directors, and they don't have any ability.
I didn't even know who the director was, so I shouted 150 million? What else is the director of the box office club? I think it's pure! ”
These words are not polite at all, and they are almost clearly saying that Chen Fei, the director, does not live up to his name.
Chen Fei didn't pay attention to it when he heard it at the time.
He roughly guessed the reason, this Lu Chuan is estimated to be stimulated because of many box office failures.
Now when he heard that even Chen Fei, a sophomore, could get a box office of 150 million, but he repeatedly hit the street, and his face was a little unbearable.
But if you step on the horse, forget it once, and labor and management will see that you are barely counted, so you should not have heard it.
But since that interview, this guy seems to be obsessed, and he is sarcastic every day!
Why, if the tiger is not powerful, you are still a sick cat as a laborer?
Facing the reporter's question, Chen Fei's face gradually flashed with a hint of mockery, "Actually, I can also understand Senior Brother Lu Chuan, the 9 million box office of "Looking for a Gun" must have made him feel a little resentful.
"Ke Ke Xili" couldn't find investment, and in the end it still occupied a part of the share of the students, which was enough to get enough money for filming.
Now that the 150 million box office appears, it is inevitable that he will have a feeling that he has never met a talent, and it is normal to be cynical.
Here, I also hope that Senior Brother Lu can take medicine well, and treat the disease as soon as possible, so as not to delay it until it develops into a big problem in the future, which will be troublesome.
Of course, if the filming of "Ho Ho Xili" is not funded, you can also tell me that last year's "Buried Alive" and this year's "Crazy Stone" made me a lot of money, and I can lend it to you, and it is the kind that does not require interest. ”
Rumble!!!
As soon as these words came out, the reporters who were watching were completely boiling!
Just got up!
Finally just got up!
It's their favorite scene!
…
As expected, Chen Fei's interview made headlines on the front pages of major entertainment newspapers and three major web portals that afternoon.
[The two directors of the film school, "old and new", openly bombarded each other! ] 】
[Facing doubts? Chen Fei, the director of the new 100 million yuan box office club, chooses to be tough! 】
[Box office battle? Questioning the identity of the director? Is it jealousy or is it true? 】
【……】
That night, when the Internet was filled with all kinds of doubts and ridicule, China Film, Shangying, and Emei jointly held a celebration dinner.
The huge banquet hall was full of people, and the round table in the center was filled with cakes, champagne, and fruits.
There's even a conspicuous banner at the door.
[Warmly celebrate the box office of "Crazy Stone" exceeding 150 million! ] 】
Looking around, the bosses of major brokerage companies in the film and television industry are all at the banquet.
Mr. Wang of Huayi, Mr. Wang of Guangguang Media, Mr. Yu of Bona, and Wang Jinghua, the first agent in China......
When Chen Fei arrived, he saw Huang Bo chatting with the CEOs of several brokerage companies.
On the other side, Zhu Yanwen and Luo Jin were also chatting with Wang Jinghua, and there were beautiful and moving Fan Ye standing next to them, as well as many familiar young actors.
Not surprisingly, they should all be preparing to sign a company.
A good brokerage company has a very big blessing for star artists, not only can they get enough resources, but also have a strong blessing on their own fame and coffee position.
Chen Fei is very supportive of their choice, and when he signs the company at the height of his fame, he can also talk about enough profit sharing.
As for his own company, I'm sorry, he doesn't have the idea of signing an artist yet.
After signing someone, you have to help them find a job, which is troublesome.
The host on the stage keenly noticed his arrival, and immediately raised the microphone and shouted: "Let us warmly welcome Chen Fei, the director of the new 100 million yuan box office club, to make his debut!" ”
Bang Bang Bang!
Warm applause rang out, and everyone greeted him one after another.
Chen Fei took the opportunity to say hello:
"Mr. Yu, welcome to him."
"Haha, I have been a big name for a long time, and I will definitely cooperate if I have the opportunity in the future."
"Mr. Wang, I miss the stone crew very much, how about a cameo role in my movie next time?"
"Sister Wang, does Huayi still sign an actor? Haha, I'm going to have to pay a lot of money this time. ”
"Wanda? Hello and welcome ......"
Facing the crowd that surrounded him, Chen Fei calmly responded.
The arrival of the protagonist also means that the celebration banquet has officially begun.
Champagne towers, cake cutting, speeches on stage......
The celebration banquet was very lively!
There are also some reporters who have been invited with cameras in their hands, recording all the time.
These photos will be used to hit the front page headlines in the future, and the preciousness is self-evident.
Halfway through the banquet, Han Sanping and Ren Zhonglun came to Chen Fei's side.
Mr. Han took the lead in asking: "What is the situation between you and that Lu Chuan?" The producer of "Ke Ke Xili" is Huayi, do you need my help to make peace? ”
"There's no need." Chen Fei shrugged his shoulders and said a little speechlessly: "Who knows if that guy has taken the wrong medicine, he has been spraying feces all over his mouth since the movie was released."
If I don't respond, does he really think I'm a bully? What the hell, still shouting in front of me! ”
Ren Zhonglun interjected curiously: "Aren't you two brothers in the same school?" ”
Chen Fei nodded, "He graduated in 98, I am in the 02nd grade, and I haven't even seen him since I entered the school." ”
"This guy has a sick brain, right?" Ren Zhonglun was also puzzled.
Since the great success of the stone, except for the old professor in the Chinese opera, he has expressed his opinion, and it is Lu Chuan who has other than that.
These are the only two stains on the road to success of the stone.
"This guy is probably jealous, don't bother with it, he won't be able to jump for long." Han Sanping made a conclusion and stopped the topic.
Ren Zhonglun turned his head and asked again, "What's next?" Have you thought of a new script? ”
Chen Fei shook his head, although he had a lot of scripts, he was not so hard as to push himself so hard.
After a busy period of half a year, he was ready to take a break for a while and then make plans.
"Director Feng called me several times, I have to go to "No Thieves in the World" to help make a cameo role, and then talk about the rest."
There are no thieves in the world?
Han Sanping and Ren Zhonglun subconsciously glanced at each other, knowing it in their hearts, but they didn't express any opinions.
"The box office account will be credited to your company's account in the next few days, and you should pay attention to it, the distribution share and royalties may have to wait for a while."
"Okay."
Chen Fei answered, turned around and walked to the position where the person who claimed to be the person in charge of Wanda was before.
In March, the first Wanda Cinema opened in Tianjin.
For this first theater in China, which has been thunderous in later generations, Chen Fei still has a friendly attitude.
Lao Wang is rich!
If you can bridge the lead with Wanda in advance, it will be very helpful for you to pursue a higher box office in the future.
The celebration dinner ended at half past eleven.
This night, Chen Fei had at least 50 more contact information on his phone.
It is also from today that he has officially established his status as a first-line commercial film director in China!
However, the next day, when Chen Fei took a taxi to the airport, he accidentally got a message from Zhongying.
Lu Chuan called reporters early in the morning and held a press conference!
Chen Fei did not know exactly what was said at the press conference, because during this period, he happened to get on a plane from the capital to Gansu.
"No Thieves in the World" is currently filmed in a temple in Xiahe County, Zhizhou, GNCZ, GS Province.
The name of this temple is "Labrang Monastery", which is exactly the destination of Chen Fei's trip.
