Looking at the script of "Ip Man 2" in his hand, Donnie Yen was stunned.

After a while, it wasn't until Wang Luoji began to remind him that it was time to eat, and he reacted in hindsight.

"I... This ......"

He looked at Chen Fei in a daze, and opened his mouth several times, but he didn't know what to say.

Chen Fei smiled, "After all, it's a series, it's better not to change the protagonist as much as possible, and your performance has also made fans very satisfied, so I think it's more appropriate for you to play the second part."

Of course, if you don't have the time, or don't really want to act, then I haven't mentioned it to you. ”

"How could you not want to!"

Donnie Yen was very excited to hold the script in his arms, and he was unwilling to let go for a moment, for fear that the script would run out with legs.

"Haha, let's go, eat first."

Chen Fei greeted him and motioned for him to follow him to the restaurant.

In order to be able to enjoy Chinese food, Chen Fei specially hired a chef from Chinatown to be responsible for cooking domestic meals for him.

At first, he was interested in bread steaks and stuff, but as time went on, he quickly got tired of it.

Chinese food is the most delicious in the world!

～

There are a lot of people gathered at the villa tonight, in addition to Donnie Yen and Wang Luoji, there are also Natasha, Wen Ziren, Bruce, Pedro Lyle, Eric KGG.

In addition, there is also a director who has come all the way from New York at the dinner table.

Woody Allen.

The film director, nicknamed "chatter", is 71 years old, and although he has gray hair, he is in a very good mental state.

At the previous Film and Television Golden Globe Awards, the "Stopper" directed by him was also nominated for the Best Director Award.

Although he was defeated by Li Press, his strength should not be underestimated.

He directed the film "Annie Hall" in 1977, which won the 50th Academy Awards for Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Actress and other awards.

It's a pity that since 2000, his directing status has plummeted.

Although "The End of the Stop", which was released in December last year, was called by the media as a film that stepped out of the "comfort zone" of the movie, its performance was not very eye-catching at the box office or awards.

And the reason why he was brought by Bruce is because of his unique "literary" attributes.

His films often have long monologues, and the content is some "metaphysical" outlook on life and values.

Although many people said that they couldn't appreciate it, there was nothing more thorough than him in the theme of love and marriage.

It is precisely because of this that Brewster deliberately invited the 70-year-old old director to Chen Fei's side.

After getting the script of "Twilight", I sat down at the dinner table and read it, showing great concentration.

In fact, the story of this movie is very simple, it is about fantasy and love, similar to the cliché campus love story.

Its audience is all high school and college groups.

The box office may be impressive, but in terms of awards... Chen Fei was not hopeful.

Therefore, in his opinion, Woody Allen will most likely choose to refuse to direct, and the young "love" may not be accepted by an elder like him.

It's just that what Chen Fei didn't expect was that when he was preparing to start the meal, Woody Allen closed the script and looked up at him seriously.

"I can shoot it."

Well?

Chen Fei's eyebrows rose slightly, and a trace of surprise unconsciously appeared on his face.

It was an answer he hadn't expected.

"It's been a long time since I've directed a mid-genre production, and I think I should step out of my comfort zone and maybe talk to young people will change my rigid thinking."

Since he said so, Chen Fei naturally had no reason to refuse.

It is also a rare opportunity to invite the Oscar winner for Best Director to shoot a fantasy romance film for himself.

"Ok, then please."

After speaking, Chen Fei turned his head to look at Natasha.

The girl nodded lightly and made an "Ok" gesture.

The cooperation between them has reached a very tacit state, and Chen Fei is responsible for providing the script, as well as some suggestions on actors and filming.

And she is in charge of the preliminary preparations, as well as all kinds of side details.

Although it is a bit busy and contrary to the purpose of her enjoyment of "freedom", this busyness makes her feel very fulfilled, as if she has found the meaning of life.

She doesn't value profits, she just feels that one movie after another can take shape in her own hands and then get the attention of many people, this sense of accomplishment is really great!

“Oh！ I love Chinese food! ”

Bruce shouted because he couldn't use chopsticks, so he could only hold a fork and try to "pick up vegetables" and keep sending them to his mouth.

Liuwei Dihuang Pill seems to have become his after-dinner dessert, and he takes it with him every moment.

Wang Luoji was surprised before, how empty this white uncle is, so that he can eat this thing as a dessert.

But after Chen Fei's sentence of "three minutes at most", she suddenly realized!

This uncle really should eat more.

…

After dinner, everyone went their separate ways.

Donnie Yen stayed here for one night, and then the next morning he went to do the matter of changing nationality in a hurry.

The release of "Ip Man" in China continues, because there are no competitors in the same period, so the word-of-mouth and box office are very bright.

The media began to focus on Chen Fei again.

"Chen Zhuo's products must be high-quality products!"

These eight words are almost rotten.

Chen Fei took the time to watch the movie "Antarctic Adventure" starring Paul Walker and funded by Walt Disney Pictures.

An expedition guide with his eight sled dogs.

It's a great story, and many viewers have praised it as the most shocking story of survival, friendship, and adventure ever.

During its release, the film won the weekend box office of the same period with its cute sled dog image and excellent publicity.

The box office in the first week was 20.188 million US dollars, which has far exceeded more than 90% of domestic films.

On the way back, Natasha, who went to the movies with him, asked curiously, "Fei, do you think "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" can be successful?" ”

$100 million, which should be regarded as the largest investment in the film since the establishment of Volton Pictures.

Chen Fei smiled slightly, leaning back in the chair very chicly, "Natasha, believe me, our movie is far better than "Antarctic Adventure". ”

"That's good."

Chen Fei's words are still very credible, the previous "This Man is from Earth" really gave Hollywood too much shock!

"How do I feel like you're a little weird tonight?"

Looking at the girl's low interest, Chen Fei couldn't help but be a little puzzled.

"Antarctic Adventure" was something she proposed to watch together, but during the viewing process, she did not show a relaxed state, and even kept frowning.

Could it be that the eldest aunt is here?

Just as he was thinking about it, he heard the girl say, "That betrayer left Royal Gate Pictures last month and joined Walt Disney and became an executive producer. ”

“WTF？？？”

Chen Fei was directly stunned.

Good guys, so what this means is that Walton Pictures is going to target Walt Disney next, not the unworthy Termen Pictures?

"Fei, do you have the confidence to lead Walton Pictures beyond Walt Disney?"

Scratching his head, Chen Fei couldn't laugh or cry, "Natasha, you really gave me a problem." ”

The girl's mood is getting more and more depressed...

But at this moment, a very firm voice suddenly came from her ear: "Natasha, I'll tell you the truth, in fact, my dream has always been to punch Walt Disney, step on Twentieth Century Fox, kick Time Warner, slap Paramount with backhand, knock over Columbia, and give Universal Pictures an over-the-shoulder fall."

So, you're just going to let me surpass Walt Disney, which I probably can't do, because I'm going to take out the big six in Hollywood! ”

"Poof..."

A bright smile suddenly bloomed on the girl's face.

While waiting for the red light, the red lips filled with a faint fragrance suddenly imprinted.

It wasn't until the horn sounded behind that the girl reluctantly parted.

"Fei, I'm about to love you to death!"

Licking the aftertaste between his lips, Chen Fei couldn't help but laugh, "Natasha, next time you suddenly kiss me, you should say to me in advance, your teeth hit me." ”

"I... I'm just inexperienced. ”

"So that was your first kiss just now?"

“Oh！ Fei！ I think you can shut up! ”

"Haha!"

…

The brief episode did not affect the progress of the work.

It's not so easy to turn over Walt Disney, just dream about it now, without years of accumulation, it's just an empty word.

March passed quickly, and the end of the month came in a blink of an eye.

After taking some free time, Chen Fei took Bruce to New York, ready to retrieve his wingsuit flight suit.

This time he may have to stay in China for a long time, and he is ready to complete the task by the way.

The wingsuit flight suit factory has already called him, the latest flight suit has been made, and it can also help him air back to China.

But Chen Fei did not let them fly it, but prepared to bring it back by himself.

～

As the largest city in the United States, New York has a unique location.

It is located in the southeastern part of New York State, the mouth of the Hudson River on the northeastern coast of the United States, bordered by the Atlantic Ocean to the southeast, New Jersey to the west, and Rhode Island to the north.

With an area of 1,214 square kilometers and a total population of about 6 million, it is the most densely populated city in the United States.

When he arrived in New York, Chen Fei did not rush to the factory, but went to Times Square, known as the "crossroads of the world", with Bruce.

Standing in front of the big screen, he inexplicably felt like he had traveled to the future city!

The surrounding architecture is futuristic and gives you the illusion of stepping into a second world!

"Are aliens real or fake?" Chen Fei couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

Bruce's attention was all on the big screen in front of him, and his mouth sighed again and again, "The advertising fee here is very expensive, I heard that it costs tens of thousands of dollars a second, and this Louis Vuitton (Louis Vuitton) is really rich enough." ”

"Of course." Chen Fei shrugged his shoulders and said, "How can the leader in the global luxury industry be in vain? ”

After wandering around for a while, the two went to the wingsuit flight suit factory.

Wrong!

To be precise, it should not be called a factory, but more specifically a studio.

What Chen Fei never expected was that when he came to the designated place, he would meet a very familiar person!

Florey Gallenberg.

Chief referee of the IRONMAN Triathlon World Championships!

"Mr. Flory? How did you end up here? ”

“Oh！ Fei！ Are you the mystery shopper who orders a wingsuit flight suit? ”

Although the two of them had some words wrong, they understood the meaning of each other's words at the same time.

"So, you started this studio?"

"That's right." Flory nodded, and said with a smile: "What a coincidence, I was still guessing before, who is constantly placing orders for us over there, it turns out to be you." ”

Since contacting this side, almost all of the equipment Chen Fei needs to complete a challenge task has been ordered from this studio.

It's just that every time he contacts a female staff member, he never expected to meet Flory here.

"Come in, please."

Flory enthusiastically led Chen Fei and Bruce to the studio and introduced the two of them to his studio's business.

Parachute, flying squirrel suit, paraglider, magnesium powder, triathlon car, wind control gloves, GPS......

"Although the price of my equipment here is a bit expensive, the quality can be guaranteed, after all, our customers are extreme athletes and extreme sports enthusiasts, and safety is the most important ......"

Chen Fei agreed with his remarks and added: "Safety first, challenge second, and a healthy body is the foundation to complete the challenge." ”

It can be clearly seen that most of the equipment here is handmade, and the process is very meticulous.

After the visit, Flory gave him the flying squirrel suit that Chen Fei needed.

After careful inspection, Chen Fei settled the final payment.

But at this moment, Flory seemed to think of something, and suddenly asked, "Fei?" What do you need this gear for? Are you going to challenge a certain mountain range? ”

"Hmm." Chen Fei didn't hide it from him, and replied directly: "I'm going to challenge Tianmen Mountain Of National Forest Park, fly down from a high place, and ensure a safe landing." ”

"Oh, no, that's crazy! You're actually going to complete the challenge there! ”

Flory was very excited, which made Chen Fei a little curious.

"Have you ever been to Tianmen Mountain?"

"That's right." Flory nodded, and a hint of longing appeared in his eyes inexplicably, "It's a mysterious Pandora world like a fairyland on earth......"

After sighing for a while, he explained why he went to Tianmen Mountain.

"Fei, it is necessary for me to introduce you to my other identity, I am one of the Red Bull executives, in charge of finding the most dangerous holy places in the world."

Oops? it!

Chen Fei's eyes widened sharply.

RedBull executive?

"Isn't this a Red Bull sponsor?"

When the word "Red Bull" was mentioned, a sentence unconsciously appeared in Chen Fei's mind.

What is the most dangerous sport in the world? It's a Red Bull sponsored sport! 】

Red Bull is involved in a variety of crazy and exciting extreme sports such as parkour, skydiving, extreme drifting, freestyle mountain biking, etc.

Red Bull's advertising slogan is simple.

"As long as you dare to go up, I dare to sponsor!"

Red Bull welcomes extreme athletes and extreme sports enthusiasts from all over the world to work with them, as long as you have bold ideas and don't need to worry about funding, Red Bull will help you with all the preparations.

And what the challenger needs to pay is "madness" and "life".

If the challenge is successful, Red Bull will pay you a good pay, but if you fail, you will pay with your life!

Flory said excitedly, "Fei, RedBulI can sponsor your challenge, and we'll take care of everything." ”

Hearing Flory's words, Chen Fei smiled slightly, but shook his head and rejected his kindness.

"Mr. Flory, if you know me, you should know that I am not short of money, and I am afraid that RedBull cannot afford my advertising expenses."

Since he entered the film and television industry, many brands will send him endorsement invitations in the first few years.

But as his status in the circle is getting higher and higher, many brands have consciously withdrawn from the invitation ranks.

Because they know they can't afford the high advertising costs.

You must know that Chen Fei has never even endorsed any products from beginning to end, but his popularity is very terrifying!

If we can negotiate a cooperation with him, it will be a huge blessing for the brand.

Because Chen Fei is already a symbol of the "top" in the circle, the products he endorses must also symbolize the top level of the same brand.

Is Red Bull considered the top of the beverage industry?

Maybe it is, but Chen Fei doesn't think they can afford their own advertising expenses.

"How much do you pay for endorsements?"

"Nine figures."

"Shhh

Flory gasped.

There was a long silence before he continued: "Fei, I will report to my boss, and I hope we can reach a cooperation in the future. ”

"I hope so."

After picking up the equipment, Chen Fei left Flory's studio.

He was not in a hurry to return to Los Angeles, but instead diverted with Bruce to Wall Street.

Wall Street is just one large street stretching from Broadway to the East River in the southern part of Manhattan in New York City, with a length of only one-third of a mile and a width of only 11 meters.

The streets are narrow and short, only seven blocks from Broadway to the East River, but it is known as the "financial center of the United States."

The offices of the Rothschild, Morgan, Rockefeller oil tycoons, Goldman Sachs, and DuPont companies in banking, insurance, shipping, railroads, and other companies are concentrated here.

The famous New York Stock Exchange is also located here, and it is also the headquarters of several major exchanges: such as the NASDAQ, the American Stock Exchange, the New York Board of Trade, etc.

The term "Wall Street" has now transcended the street itself to become a synonym for the surrounding area, as well as financial markets and financial institutions that have an impact on the world economy as a whole.

The reason why I came here is because the office area of "Longxiang Capital" is here.

Bruce subleased a collapsed investment banking firm, took over the counterpart's office space, and began to renovate.

The renovation was still a bit time-consuming, and when the two came to the outside of the office area, they could see that there were many workers busy inside.

"It is expected to end in mid-May."

This was the foreman's assurance.

"Okay, good work."

After a brief tour, Chen Fei left the office building and returned to Los Angeles.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that on the day he returned to the crew, Florey called.

"Fei, the company agreed to your conditions, but they need to verify your ability."

Oh?

A nine-figure endorsement fee?

Agreed?

Is Red Bull so rich?

Chen Fei couldn't help but be a little curious and asked, "What kind of verification method?" ”

"On the condition of this Tianmen Mountain wingsuit flight, if you can successfully complete the challenge, then the endorsement fee of 100 million US dollars can be signed with you on the spot!"

One hundred million?

Dollar?!

Chen Fei's eyebrows trembled suddenly.

In fact, the nine-digit number he said before, the unit behind it is actually RMB.

"Hey? Why do you suddenly feel like a rabbit and a camel are trading with gestures? ”

After pondering for a while, Chen Fei nodded and responded, "Mr. Flory, I can agree to your conditions." ”
