205. Who in the court sued this official? Harvest the whole world!
"Andy, you're really professional!"
Time passed day by day, and the filming of "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" has also entered a stage of rapid progress.
The professional is awesome!
In terms of motion capture, Andy Serkis is simply a bull to take off, whether it is his demeanor or movement, he completely shows the posture that an orangutan should have.
Movements, expressions, demeanor... An orangutan can be what it should be!
This state directly made the rest of the crew breathtaking!
Wang Luodan stood quietly behind the monitor, watching the performances of these actors, she unconsciously began to recall and compare the acting skills of those domestic actors.
After thinking about it carefully, she was shocked to find that except for a few old actors, everyone else couldn't even touch Andy Serkis's side!
"Ugh."
Sighing unconsciously, she secretly swore in her heart that she must cherish this opportunity and work hard to learn from these actors.
It's no wonder that the gold content of the Academy Awards is high, and with this acting skills, it is simply beating the Hong Kong Film Awards!
If the domestic film and television industry wants to overtake, there is a long way to go!
In the face of Chen Fei's praise, Andy smiled: "When I was filming "King Kong" before, I systematically learned the movements, expressions, and postures of orangutans, and even stayed in the zoo for more than a month, so I can have such a performance. ”
As he spoke, he unconsciously looked at Chen Fei with a face full of amazement.
"It's you... Fei, have you also learned about visual art performance? Your performance is not inferior to mine! ”
What is being filmed now is the footage of "Caesar" after he was imprisoned in the Animal Control Bureau.
In addition to Andy Serkis, the crew also specially invited other actors, and was also responsible for capturing the movements and expressions of other orangutans.
What amazed everyone was that Chen Fei, as the director, also went into battle in person.
He plays another orangutan in the film, named "Rocket", who is the first orangutan king to come up and bully "Caesar" after he was arrested by the Animal Control Bureau.
In the first part of Rise of the Planet of the Apes, there are only a few orangutans with the most scenes, and Caesar and Rocket are definitely second to none.
Everyone thought that Chen Fei would choose to find another professional motion capture actor, but they never expected him to do it himself.
And what's even more impressive is that he did a great job!
Because of his martial arts, his various movements are very clean and neat, and he performs the posture and strength of the "orangutan boss"...
Faced with Andy Serkis's surprise, Chen Fei smiled and said: "Andy, before I officially became a director, my main job was actually an actor and action director. ”
Before Andy Serkis came back to his senses, James on the side added with a smile,
"Andy, you may not know Fei very well, when filming "Spider-Man 2", Director Sam specially invited him from Huaxia and guided us a lot of actions."
As he spoke, he paused, as if thinking about something.
However, he soon added: "His status in Huaxia is on the same level as Yuen Woo-ping, and he is one of the representatives of Chinese kung fu." ”
“OMG! That's pretty cool too! ”
Andy Serkis looked surprised.
This metaphor very intuitively reflects Chen Fei's strength.
Due to the popularity of movies such as "The Matrix", "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and "Kill Bill", Yuan Heping enjoys a great reputation in Hollywood and is the object of worship of many action actors.
Now that he suddenly learned that Chen Fei's strength was at the same level as Yuan Heping, Andy couldn't hide his shock for a while!
"Let's move on."
Chen Fei didn't discuss these issues too much, "martial arts instruction" was just a very ordinary skill he knew, and there was nothing to show off.

The filming of "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" is progressing in an orderly manner, and good news is constantly coming back from other aspects.
Marvel's acquisition is going very well, and a comic book company that is already struggling to make ends meet and is on the verge of bankruptcy suddenly has someone willing to take over, and the other party is very willing to accept it.
The only stalemate was that some shareholders were slightly unhappy with the purchase price, believing that the offer was too low.
Of course, this is not a problem, and Natasha's family has sent a professional acquisition team to negotiate.
If nothing else, the deal will officially come to an end in May.
Marvel's stock has now fallen again and again, the stock price is very depressed, and it is effortless to buy.
In addition to this, plans for horror thrillers in collaboration with other independent film studios are also well underway.
Lionsgate is the most professional in this area, and their filming progress is fast, and the first part of "Morgue Trouble" is 1/3 completed.
I want to release it in May, so I'm in a hurry.
Wen Ziren also agreed to cooperate.
Recently, he is busy registering his own studio, and when the preliminary procedures are completed and the recruitment and other things are over, he will come over to direct and shoot the "Latent" series as soon as possible.
At the same time, Universal's "Dangerous Laughter" also entered the filming period.
The mature Hollywood film industry makes filming very fast, and everyone has their own job, like a myriad of delicate parts on a car, running separately but implicating each other, driving the car forward...
On the contrary, the filming progress of the disaster film "2012" is a little slow.
Although the funds were in place, the progress was reduced because there were many scenes that were very complex, and Roland Emmerich was a director who pursued excellence.
However, producer Walker Engel was not in a hurry, and when he called Chen Fei, he explained with a smile,
"There will inevitably be big and small problems in the pre-shooting of this kind of disaster film, and as long as you get through this stage, the post-production will be very smooth."
He was not in a hurry, and Chen Fei was even less anxious, "Okay, contact me when you need help." ”
“Ok!”
The scenery of Sichuan Province and Mount Everest in China has come to an end, and several film and television companies have helped together, and the construction speed of various scenes is fast!
The title of "infrastructure madness" has been faintly spread...
Speaking of China, the film and television industry has been in constant action recently.
On the TV side, the broadcast of "Flying Immortals" continues, and the historical business war drama "Qiao's Courtyard" starring Chen Jianbin has also begun to be broadcast.
The ratings of the show quickly became popular, with the highest rating of a single episode reaching 10.12% and an average rating of 8.01%, which received a lot of praise.
The major officials unanimously recognized the authenticity and various excellent spiritual qualities.
On the side of the film industry, the popularity of "Wuji" has obviously decreased, and everyone no longer wants to go to Hei Chen Kaige, they are really tired and panicked.
The broadcast of "Huo Yuanjia" is still going on.
But while the response was hot, some problems also followed.
The descendants of the Huo family still jumped out and complained that there were many plots in the movie that did not conform to historical facts.
In particular, the ending is suspected of misleading Huo Yuanjia as a "son and grandson", insulting the descendants of the Huo family, and asking the film to apologize publicly.
The matter was very big, and Huo Shoujin, the grandson of Huo Yuanjia, took China Film, Jet Li and others to court on the grounds of infringing on the right to reputation.
Han Sanping called, and her words were full of anger.
"This person really dares to think that he not only asks for an apology, but also asks them to take the movie off the shelves and compensate them for huge mental damages!"
"So what are you going to do?"
Chen Fei was a little helpless, when he first filmed "Ip Man", he specially told the emperor that he must invite Ip Man's descendants to be "guided".
For no other reason, it is to prevent subsequent rip-offs.
Han Sanping was also on the scene at the time, but the filming progress of "Huo Yuanjia" was already halfway through, so he didn't care.
It's good now, the movie has been released for nearly a month, the box office trend is not bad, and the word of mouth is just right, but suddenly such a thing happened.
It's disgusting...
"Let him go and sue him." Han Sanping's tone carried a hint of sarcasm, "If he can sue to win, I will change my surname to Huo!" ”
The third master is also very angry, "Wuji" has already made him unhappy, and "Huo Yuanjia" has gone wrong again, isn't this hitting him with a gun?
"By the way, when are you going to release "Ip Man"?"
"Which schedule do you think is appropriate?"
"I'm going to see the release sheet..."
There was silence on the other end of the phone for a few minutes, and then Han Sanping began to chatter, "Don't mention those literary films, none of them can be called."
On the commercial film side, in the first half of the year, there were "Decisive Battle of the Empire", "Antarctic Adventure", "Mission Impossible 3", and "The Da Vinci Code", which were released on January 30, February 17, May 5, and May 19 respectively.
There are more in the second half of the year, "Fast and Furious 3" on June 16, "Superman Returns" on June 28, followed by "Dragon Tiger Gate", "Night Banquet", "Baby Project" and so on.
I don't recommend you to fight for the second half of the year, I recommend you to fight for March, which is the only schedule without commercial films. ”
In fact, Han Sanping's behavior of revealing the release schedule in advance is not allowed.
But... What?
To use a classic line, "Who in the hall sues this official?" ”
This is called avoiding schedule collisions, and there is no violation at all.
On the other end of the phone, Chen Fei was silent for a while.
"Mr. Han? Pull back so many imported films, won't something happen? ”
From February to July, the bombing continued to be intense, and the intensity was simply breathtaking!
As expected, the domestic film industry is probably going to start frying again.
"I've been trying very hard to avoid it, and I also hope that domestic films will get better and better, but they are not angry, and there is a lot of pressure on the WTO, and the share is fixed, so it must be paid."
All in all, if the film market wants to flourish, it still needs commercial films to drive it.
Only by harvesting enough box office can the cinema chain develop, and the theater can also expand, and at the same time drive up consumption.
But domestic commercial films are really not competitive!
There are only a few commercial film directors back and forth, and the others are drilling in literary films, thinking about selling copyrights abroad.
In the long run, it must not completely collapse?
Therefore, Han Sanping simply made a ruthless move!
Hollywood blockbusters are all piled up in the first half of the year, which is used to complete the WTO indicators, and as for domestic commercial films, they are all let go to the second half of the year.
As for those literary films......
Love, what's the matter!
"Then in March, I can still go to the Oscars, maybe I can add some heat to "Ip Man"."
Hearing this, Han Sanping asked curiously, "Are you confident of winning the award?" ”
"Nope." Chen Fei shook his head and said bluntly: "The Oscar competition is much more complicated than the Golden Globe Awards, which really has to be smashed with real money, thousands of judges, if you want to get more than half of the support, you can't do it casually." ”
It's already good to have a nomination, Chen Fei didn't think he could win the award at all.
This thing... Go with the flow.
"Okay, I thought you had a good relationship with Zhang Ziyi, didn't she become a lifelong judge? I can talk to you. ”
"She is a judge in terms of actors, and I am nominating screenwriters and directors, which are different."
Although he failed to win the Golden Globe Awards, with the nominations for "Memoirs of a Geisha" and the selection of the Oscar judges, the title of "International Chapter" finally spread on the Internet.
Some media even boldly claimed that the most famous Chinese actress in the world today is Zhang Ziyi, no one is invincible!
There may also be Zhang Ziyi's boost...
"Okay."
Han Sanping didn't continue to talk in depth, but directly changed the topic, "There is one more thing, didn't South Korea buy the copyright of "Buried Alive" earlier, and the response was quite good, and then they wanted to buy the copyright of "Chinese Partner" as well. ”
South Korea?
Chen Fei thought for a moment and asked rhetorically, "Is it still that ShowBox?" ”
"Yes, this is the company, which is currently the leading college in South Korea, from the production, production, and brokerage business in the upstream of film and television, to the publicity and distribution and colleges in the downstream, it is currently the No1 in South Korea."
Generally, the more developed the economy, the better the box office will be, so South Korea is also a box office that cannot be ignored.
And the film market in this country has a particularly strange characteristic, many extreme themes can be made, and the more extreme the film, the better the box office, and the higher the audience support.
Those consortia are also quite interesting.
The main thing is to accept it with an open mind, but resolutely not change!
Thinking of this, Chen Fei couldn't help but say happily: "If you want to, sell it to them, you can control the price, and just say hello to a few other investors." ”
"Okay, then I'll arrange someone to notify the Emperor and Shangying by the way, and the publicity of "Ip Man" can also be followed."
"Good..."
After a few more simple chats, Chen Fei hung up the phone, and then continued to devote himself to the filming of the movie.
…
During the day, he focused on film shooting, but after returning to the villa at night, Chen Fei began to plan a "big event".
The registration of Longxiang Capital has been completed, and he directly threw 30 million US dollars into it as registered capital.
At present, Bruce is looking for an office space for him, and the location is on Wall Street, which is known as the "center of world wealth".
The company's first task will be to focus on the "financial crisis".
If this robbery plan can be successful, then a large amount of money will appear in his hands, and this money can not only be used to repay the loan, but also to provide a boost for the development of Feixiang Film and Television.
In addition, he has another very bold plan in mind, and the benefits after success are very large!
That's why he paid a lot of money to hire Eric.
If this plan succeeds, then he will be able to use human greed to earn the greatest fortune in his life, and then the leeks of the world's speculators will be harvested by him!
And the four words "Longxiang Capital" will also make those Wall Street bigwigs completely crazy about it!
…
Because of filming, Wang Luodan has been living in Chen Fei's villa during this time.
In the early days, there were only two people in the villa, she and Chen Fei, but occasionally a white girl would come over, and she would be so noisy that she couldn't sleep all night...
She didn't care about Chen Fei and Amanda.
It's all young people, dry wood and fire, soothing each other's physical and mental emptiness, and that's nothing to care about.
What's more, Chen Fei is not married, and it is normal to fall in love.
But as time went by, she suddenly found that Chen Fei began to take men into the villa!
It was a white and chubby white young man, who looked a little shy and didn't like to talk much, and often held a laptop in his arms.
The meeting place for the two is the study.
It's strange that just like the white girl, Chen Fei and the white boy were also busy all night!
Occasionally, when she went to deliver fruit, she could see Chen Fei writing and drawing on a blackboard with chalk, and it was all symbols she didn't recognize.
As for the white boy, he listened quietly at first, but later he joined the discussion.
Some technical terms and code knowledge kept jumping out of his mouth, and the various symbols on the blackboard became more and more drawn, and the more complex they became...
This went on for a week!
Until the last day, when the white boy left the villa very excitedly, Chen Fei also walked out of the study with a satisfied face...
The doubts on Wang Luodan's face became even greater.
She still couldn't hold back after all, and asked curiously, "Director Chen, what are you two talking about?" ”
"Secret."
Chen Fei had a smile on his face, but his eyes revealed the madness that made Wang Luodan feel his hairs stand on end!
Previously, because she was going to play a role persecuted by a murderer, the director specially arranged for her to communicate with the death row prisoner.
At that time, when talking about the process of crime, she happened to see the cruel gaze in the prisoner's eyes that made her feel very frightened!
And now, she actually saw the same look in Chen Fei's eyes!
"You... You're not going to do anything illegal, are you? Wang Luodan was inexplicably a little scared.
"Hey? What are you thinking? Chen Fei glanced at her with some confusion, "What kind of person do I think I look like?" ”
"Not really."
"Isn't that all there is to it?"
shrugged his shoulders, Chen Fei didn't say anything to her, after all, the fewer people who knew about it, the greater the possibility of success!
In the previous week, he pulled Eric to design a machine.
A "machine" that can harvest human greed!
In the next few years, Eric will take the design and "manufacture" it.
It may be a long process, but Chen Fei has plenty of time to wait.
There is an old saying in Huaxia: If you want to do a good job, you must first sharpen your tools!
Therefore, this "machine" must be foolproof.
When it's officially up and running, it's time to harvest the world's speculators!
