244, the new film plan, painted a fragrant flatbread for Liu's mother! The most important piece of the map!

On the evening of returning from Siguniang Mountain, Chen Fei did not rush back to the capital, but went to meet He Shiping, the deputy director of Emei Film Studio.

Under the recommendation of the other party, he met a leader in Sichuan Province.

The two sides met in a teahouse.

After greeting him, the other party confirmed to him again, "Chen... In short, are you sure you want to invest in a filming location similar to Hengdian Film and Television City in our Bashu area? ”

"Yes, I'm pretty sure."

Chen Fei had no interest in fighting with him, and directly nodded and admitted the matter.

"So how much do you decide to invest? Do you have any interested investment areas? ”

Chen Fei thought for a while and said: "The construction of the film and television city is not made overnight, there is no upper limit to investment in this area, and investment will be gradually increased according to needs." ”

The other person nodded in understanding.

Hengdian Film and Television City was not completely built in a certain period of time, but was continuously expanded according to the needs of the crew.

"The initial investment will start with 1000000000000000000000000000000000000000

"Ah???h

The leader on the other side was directly stunned.

Didn't you just say that it wouldn't happen overnight? How can this be a billion yuan?

Now the price of this land is not the time when tens of thousands of dollars will be used in later generations, if this money is invested, it is enough to completely transform a small county town.

After being silent for a while, the leader continued to ask: "Where is the investment area chosen?" ”

"Do you have a map?"

"Yes!"

The other party nodded, and after a while, someone sent a topographic map of the Bashu region.

Chen Fei didn't hesitate, took a look at the overall landscape, and pointed his finger at one of the areas.

Wenshan County?

"Is this the right place?" The leader looked at Chen Fei with some suspicion.

"There are mountains, water, and vegetation, so why is it not suitable?"

The leader didn't continue to speak, that place is a poor position, since people are willing to invest in that area, then he naturally has no reason to object.

Subsequently, after a brief discussion on the initial investment, the two sides said goodbye to each other.

Cooperation is not something that can be done in one sentence, and development is not something that can be successful in a day or two.

It all takes time.

Chen Fei is not in a hurry, it is only 06 years now, and there is still more than a year to go, which is enough for him to complete the preset plan in advance.

After returning to the capital non-stop, Chen Fei first went back to the company.

The first round of broadcasts of "Soldier Assault" has ended, and it can be described as rave reviews.

Since its inception in 05, the number of users has continued to rise.

After the first round of broadcasts, "Soldier Assault" opened a scoring system on Douban, and among the more than 30,000 audience evaluations, the average score reached 9.5 points (out of 10 points), of which more than 78.1% of the audience gave a 5-star evaluation!

Su Guohai said excitedly: "Mango Station is in contact with us recently, and it won't take long for the first round of earnings to arrive."

They wanted to reach a cooperation with our new TV series "Latent", and in terms of advertising sharing, they also agreed to our request to increase the revenue share. ”

"Okay, I see, since they have agreed to our request, let's continue to authorize them."

Regarding the first round of broadcasts of the TV series "Latent", Wang Ke has already discussed it with Chen Fei in private.

Wang Ke wants to stabilize his position as the deputy director of Mango, so he needs to make achievements, and Chen Fei is also willing to invest in him, and cooperating with Mango Station is also conducive to increasing income.

It's a win-win cooperation, and he has no reason to say no.

"How is the second round of playback selling?"

"There are many TV stations that have already quoted us, and the highest one so far is Shanjingtai."

As he spoke, Su Guohai handed a list to Chen Fei.

The highest bidder was Shanjingtai, while the lowest was... Yang Ma comprehensive channel?

Chen Fei was a little surprised, "Yang Ma also has the intention of buying the second round of broadcasts?" ”

"Well, it's a pity that their offer is not high."

Chen Fei thought for a while and said: "It doesn't matter, just give it to Yang Ma, anyway, the cost has been recovered in the first round, and it also makes those leaders happy and happy, which is conducive to our subsequent development." ”

"Okay, I'll do it."

After leaving Su Guohai's office, Chen Fei turned his head and went to the screenwriting department.

As soon as he pushed open the door, he saw Ni Xuelin and Tang Honglei muttering and discussing in front of the computer, and would argue a few words from time to time.

Curiously walking behind the two of them, he saw dense text on the computer screen.

Take a look at the title again, and it is "My Captain, My Regiment"!

"What? Still have problems with the script? ”

The sudden sound startled Ni Xuelin and Tang Honglei.

The two subconsciously turned their heads and saw Chen Fei staring at the screen curiously.

"Brother Fei, you're back." Ni Xuelin said hello with a smile and explained: "It's okay, it's just some details of the problem, we want to continue to improve this book." ”

"Director Chen."

Kang Honglei also said hello with a smile.

It has been determined before that the book "My Leader, My Group" will be directed and filmed by Kang Honglei, so he has been staying in the company almost all the time to help improve the script recently.

"Can this script be on TV on August 1 next year?"

"Yes!"

Kang Honglei nodded heavily, he had this confidence.

"That'll do."

Chen Fei smiled, reached out and took out a new script from his bag, and threw it in front of Ni Xuelin.

"After "My Leader, My Group" is completed, you will give me this book to improve it again, and then send it to the above for review, isn't "Latent" finished? Let Wang Shiliang's kid shoot this book and give him some intensity! ”

Wang Shiliang was introduced by Tian Zhuangzhuang, and "Latent" was directed and filmed by him.

Like Ning Hao, he also signed a ten-year long contract, stipulating that there would be a TV series output in one year, and the rest of the time he was free to move.

"My brother's name is Shunyo?"

Ni Xuelin muttered in his mouth and opened the script.

Kang Honglei also approached with a curious face.

This is also a military-themed TV series, telling the story of an ordinary grassroots hero who relied on his shooting talent in the War of Resistance against Japan and gave his passion, blood, and life on the battlefield.

After spending more than half an hour reading the script, Kang Honglei suddenly fell silent.

There are many light-hearted and humorous lines in the script, which is fundamentally different from the war-themed TV series he imagined.

However, after seeing sadness in joy and becoming more and more sad, bringing joy to people, the script tells a tragic story, which makes people feel more poignant and shocking.

Even if he only watched it once, those lines engraved with the spirit of the characters seemed to be deeply engraved in his mind!

"Whew..."

With a sigh of relief, he subconsciously turned around and wanted to tell Chen Fei his understanding of this script.

But when he turned his head, he found that Chen Fei had left the screenwriting department at some point.

Helpless, he could only vent his inner feelings to Ni Xuelin: "Director Chen's screenwriting level is the top I have ever seen in the circle!" ”

Ni Xuelin shrugged his shoulders, "He told me before that in fact, movie scripts are his strength, and TV series are just written when he is occasionally inspired." ”

By the way???

Listening to this word, Kang Honglei suddenly felt that the whole person was not very good.

"Soldier Assault", "My Regiment Commander, My Regiment", "My Brother Called Shunyo"...

The scripts of these TV series are written by the way? Are you kidding?

The film market in September is very competitive.

Although "Eavesdropping" has been released for almost a month, its good reputation and novel themes have made it still hot.

And "Night Banquet" is a little unlucky.

Feng Xiaogang and Wang Zhonglei took the film to the Venice Film Festival in a hurry, but it was commented by many film critics that it was nondescript and unconventional, and finally ran back in disgrace.

In addition to the failure of the film festival, Feng Laopao has also been under the pressure of public opinion in the past few days.

The actress who made a naked substitute for Zhang Ziyi complained about him wildly on the Internet!

When he signed the contract, he said that he would mark the name of the actress after the movie was released, but after the official release, there was no name of the actress at the end.

Clear-eyed people know that Feng Xiaogang played poor information, which made many viewers think that Zhang Ziyi really made a huge sacrifice for the movie.

But other actresses didn't follow it, and you regretted what you said at the beginning.

What about the big directors?

Can a big director not believe his word and go back on his word?

For a while, the Internet was full of noise.

In addition, the evaluation of the movie is also all over the major forums, post bars, and Douban comment areas.

Director Feng's blockbuster dream finally disappeared, and the oriental version of "Hamlet" with a serious theme directly let the audience experience what is called "magic change"!

The lines in this are simply full of strong comedy style.

"After tonight, with a sister-in-law, what else do you want to do?"

"I am a big country, based on integrity!"

"You are the queen, your mother is the world, and you still kick the quilt when you sleep?"

The more polite media used the headline: The picture is first-class, the story is sparse.

And those entertainment tabloids that are not afraid of heaven and earth, the title is: Director Feng's new film "Night Banquet", which is comparable to Director Chen's "Wuji"!

Chen Fei seriously suspected that there must be Han Sanping's impetus in this!

Brother Chen Kai has been very peaceful during this time, and I heard that he went abroad to study hard.

But Chen Fei knew that he was scolded for breaking his defense.

"A proper pair of sleeping dragons and phoenixes!"

At the same time, just when "Night Banquet" was being whipped, the three films "Source Code", "Baby Project", and "Tuya's Marriage" began to take the lead, and started an overwhelming publicity on major portals, variety shows, talk shows and Tieba forums.

After the ice climbing challenge task, Chen Fei arranged all the film promotion plans in China to Liu Yifei, Sun Honglei, and Liu Yijun.

And he himself is preparing to go to Hollywood, and while filming "Iron Man", he will also do some publicity in Hollywood.

The publicity and distribution channels of "Source Code" in Southeast Asia are jointly responsible for China Film, Shanghai Film, and Wanda, while Chen Fei is jointly responsible for the distribution of other regions, and Chen Fei is jointly responsible for Universal Pictures, Lionsgate, and Walton Pictures.

Everyone is an old friend, and no one will be lazy in terms of publicity.

But before leaving, Chen Fei still has one more thing to do!

He has to go to the magic capital and Liu Yifei to determine the new script, and he must not let her be fooled by the two brothers "The King of Kung Fu" and Huayi.

Such a good tool man, if there is a "stain", it will disrupt many of his arrangements and plans in the future.

Zhang Yimou has also been moving a lot recently.

"The City Full of Golden Armor" is being screened for the Oscars, and the ending song "Chrysanthemum Terrace" sung by Zhou Jie has been released, and many fans say that it is very good!

On his way to the airport, Chen Fei even heard the song on the radio broadcast.

There is still some truth to the phrase "bad movies come out of the divine comedy".

The fan base of "Liu Tianxian" is really good, even if the songs are not good, the shape is strange, but the records are still selling hot.

In just half a month, the sales volume has reached more than 300,000!

This data simply blinded the eyes of a bunch of popular singers in the music world!

However, when he saw the mother and daughter of the Liu family, Chen Fei obviously felt that something was not right in the atmosphere, the two seemed to have just quarreled, and the air in the room was very depressing.

"Xiao Chen is here? You talk, I'll go out first. ”

Mother Liu stood up, said hello briefly, and then left the room in a hurry.

"What's the situation? Quarreled? Chen Fei looked at Liu Yifei with a curious expression.

"Hmm!"

Liu Yifei nodded and explained: "Huayi's audition has reached the third round, and there is only the final makeup audition left, as long as I pass, I can join the filming of "The King of Kung Fu".

But Sony wanted me to go to the United States, and my mother and godfather thought it was a good suggestion, so they wanted me to drop out of the audition and study music! ”

Chen Fei was a little curious, "Then what do you think?" ”

Liu Yifei's face was full of resistance, "I don't want to go, it will take more than a year to go at least, and the number of fans that I have accumulated will definitely be exhausted during this period."

And I don't have any singing talent myself, the popularity of the record is just the support of the fans, not my singing at all. ”

Chen Fei nodded secretly, this girl is not stupid, at least her understanding of herself is still very clear.

The number of domestic records sold is indeed quite high, but the foreign ones are very miserable.

From this point, it can be seen that her record is completely supported by a huge fan effect.

"Director Minkoff recognized me very much, and Mr. Wang of Huayi also talked to me alone, and they all thought that I was very suitable for playing the heroine in it, but I don't know why, my mother just didn't agree, and even my godfather didn't support me."

“……”

Chen Fei didn't know how to reply to her words.

Judging from what Liu Yifei said, Liu Xiaoli obviously didn't tell her another request for Huayi.

If you want to participate in this movie, signing a contract with Huayi is a must, otherwise this role will never be given to her, even if her fan base is high enough.

The two brothers of the Wang family are both Pixiu, and they will never do anything about making wedding dresses for others.

If the original trajectory was followed, Liu Xiaoli should have entrusted Sony to contact foreign countries, and finally let Liu Yifei sign a contract with William Morris Agency in the United States, becoming the company's second Chinese actress after Zhang Ziyi, and finally got the role of "Golden Swallow" in "The King of Kung Fu".

However, it was since then, after the movie was released, Huayi began to semi-ban her.

eats resources, but doesn't sign a contract, no one will be happy to cooperate with her.

After a little silence, Chen Fei took out a script from his bag, handed it to her, and said, "Make a call and call your mother to come back, I have something I want to talk to her." ”

"What's wrong?"

After taking the script, Liu Yifei looked down and took out her mobile phone.

Liu Xiaoli did not leave the hotel, but went to the restaurant downstairs to order food, and she quickly returned to her room after receiving the call.

"Mom, Chen Fei gave me a heroine script!"

Liu Yifei said very excitedly, and handed the script to Liu Xiaoli.

"Mulan???

Looking at the three big characters on the cover of the script, Liu Xiaoli's face was slightly stunned, and her eyes instantly became complicated.

She didn't read the content in it, she just needed to know that this script was taken out by Chen Fei.

Chen Fei took the initiative to look at her, "Auntie? Let's talk? ”

"Okay."

Liu Xiaoli nodded silently, and after instructing Liu Yifei to read the script on the sofa first, she led Chen Fei into the study.

After sitting down on the sofa, Chen Fei didn't go around the bend with her, and said directly:

"I am ready to invest 70 million US dollars in the movie "Mulan", and also take the route of Sino-US co-production and global distribution, using Chinese mainland actors and scenes, and then matching Hollywood's special effects team and production team to shoot the majestic ...... of "Mulan", one of the four great heroines in ancient Chinese legends."

Before the rebirth, Disney's "Mulan" caused quite a stir in the film and television industry.

For 1 hour and 55 minutes, Chen Fei did not fast-forward the whole process, and watched it carefully.

This is a film that was polarized by word-of-mouth as soon as it was released.

Because there are many differences between European and American culture and Chinese culture itself, there are many misinterpretations in cultural transmission.

The exaggerated styling of heavy makeup, the misuse of Chinese elements, and the hard-pressed background atmosphere......

These are the flaws of the film!

However, when the script appears in Chen Fei's hands, all this will cease to exist.

He has taken the time to make a major overhaul of the script, removing the dross in it, leaving the essence, and filling in some things that can be understood by both European and American audiences and Chinese audiences.

The modified "Mulan" not only has a magnificent setting similar to "Hero", but also has a rich story core.

Chen Fei's purpose is actually very simple, he wants to use a tragic heroic epic story to convey China's profound cultural history to the world!

Just like the movie "Kung Fu Panda", in this life it no longer belongs to Disney, but to China!

He wants to use "Mulan" to let Chen Kaige and Feng Xiaogang take a good look at how the real Chinese culture should be filmed and displayed.

And "Liu Yifei" will be the most important part of it.

This tool man Chen Fei is going to be decided, and he must not let the two brothers of Huayi take it away!

After listening to Chen Fei's words, Liu Xiaoli, who was sitting opposite, instantly became short of breath.

A big investment of 70 million US dollars, a Sino-American co-production, and using her daughter as the protagonist, just thinking about it a little, she is a little difficult to suppress the excitement in her heart!

However, after calming down for a while, Liu Xiaoli quickly regained her senses and asked with some vigilance: "What are the conditions?" ”

She doesn't believe that there is a free lunch in the world, no matter how good Chen Fei and Liu Yifei's personal relationship is, it is impossible to give her such a script for nothing.

The previous "Source Code" had already surprised her, and now there is another "Mulan......

This is very unreasonable!

She firmly believes that Chen Fei must have other purposes, otherwise it is absolutely impossible to give Liu Yifei benefits repeatedly.

"Just like the conditions Huayi gave you, I want her to join my company."

After hearing this, Liu Xiaoli was not nervous, but secretly relieved.

If she didn't mention the conditions, she would have started to wonder if Chen Fei was beating her daughter's idea, but now that she had put forward the conditions, she felt that it was very reasonable.

Fertilizer and water do not flow into outsiders' fields, which is recognized as common sense in the circle.

Signing a company, this requirement is normal in Liu Xiaoli's opinion.

However, she still deliberately asked, "But isn't your company not doing artist agency projects?" After signing the contract, what is the future development route? ”

"No, no, no, you may have misunderstood, I didn't ask her to sign up for my company in the mainland."

Well???

As soon as Chen Fei said this, Liu Xiaoli's eyes widened suddenly.

"Do you still have a company abroad?"

"Hmm." Chen Fei didn't hide it from her, "You should know about Walton Pictures, right?" That's also my company, which has an artist agency project.

As for Liu Yifei's future development route, in fact, I said at the Academy Awards ceremony before that my goal has always been to help mainland actors go international and carry forward the 5,000-year-old cultural history of the Chinese nation.

Wang Luoji is the first actress to go to Hollywood, Liu Yifei will be the second, I will try my best to make them international superstars, so that they can shine in the global cultural film and television industry......"

In the next half hour, Chen Fei drew a huge "cake" for Liu Xiaoli.

It is a sheet sprinkled with all kinds of "dark seasonings" and countless "condiments" of essence elements extracted from the indescribable, which can be called the most delicious "flatbread" in the whole universe!

Liu Xiaoli ate happily, her face was flushed, and her breathing became short.

And when she finished eating the "cake" drawn by Chen Fei, she did not hesitate at all, and directly stretched out her hand to Chen Fei.

"Sissi will ask you to take care of me in the future, I hope you don't live up to my trust in you, and I hope you can do what you say."

"Auntie, don't worry, I will definitely take care of her, and I will never let her be bullied outside."

???

The conversation between the two is normal in the current scene, but Chen Fei feels a little weird inexplicably.

Why is there a sudden feeling that the mother-in-law is telling her son-in-law that she must be good to her daughter in the future?

Obviously, he treats Liu Yifei as a "tool man"!

even let her be the heroine of "Source Code", in fact, this is also part of Chen Fei's plan, in order to complete his grand territory.

But now after Liu Xiaoli said this, it always feels like she is "entrusting her for life......
