357, Xiao Lizi "Award Insulator", excellent hunters often appear as prey!
In a blink of an eye, it was the day after the Berlin International Film Festival ended its awards.
The major portals in the mainland are now full of news about the award of "The Undertaker"!
The first Chinese Berlin actor and another Golden Bear Award for Best Film...... This novel movie has simply brought a huge shock to the entire film industry!
After the award ceremony, Chen Fei began to receive calls from filmmakers from various countries.
The most excited was Jiang Wen, who called to congratulate Chen Fei on winning the award, and at the same time informed him of the preparations for "Let the Bullets Fly".
"Haha, I called the Cannes actor Ge Wei, and now you have won the Berlin actor again, the popularity of our movie can definitely be stirred, this time, I want to stand and earn the box office!"
Lao Jiang is still very unhappy about the failure of "When the Sun Also Rises", even if he failed at the box office, he went to the Venice Film Festival and got nothing, and in the end, the copyright failed to sell at a good price, and the loss was a mess.
Now this "Let the Bullets Fly" has not only been affirmed by Chen Fei, but also attracted his investment and joining, and he is now confident!
This wave, stable!
At the same time, Leonardo, who was far away in Hollywood, also called, and the envy in his words was simply undisguised.
"Fei, you're so cool that you actually won the Berlin Best Actor! I unilaterally declare that you will be my only idol from now on! ”
Xiao Lizi's worth is one of the best in Hollywood, and the salary is even higher.
But he has never been favored by the Oscar judges, and has been nominated repeatedly, but he has missed the award every time.
In the last Oscar, he got two nominations for two movies, but he was still rejected by the Oscar judges.
This feeling is really uncomfortable!
Therefore, for awards, he actually has an unusual obsession and pursuit, especially like the three major European ones and the Oscars, he has been obsessed with it for too long, but he has never had the opportunity to win the award.
Now, Chen Fei, who was almost as handsome as he was when he was young, actually won the Berlin Best Actor, and when the news reached his ears, he was stunned for a long time before he came back to his senses.
It's unreasonable!
Even if the director's level is bullish, he is also so good as an actor, and God focuses on him for Mao?
"It's just fucking!"
Leonardo cursed in his heart, but he had a different set of rhetoric.
"Fei, if there is a suitable script for a literary film, you must tell me, I can invest, and even star in it with zero pay!"
The pursuit of awards has become an obsession for Xiao Lizi, just like he always looks for a girlfriend under the age of 25, which has become an indispensable feature in his life.
"Ok, if there's a suitable script, I'll definitely contact you."
Chen Fei responded casually in his mouth, but in his heart, he silently passed the little plum.
This guy's face is so handsome, especially the "Titanic", which has brought great shock to fans and filmmakers all over the world!
But it is precisely because of his handsomeness that if he wants to win the prize, the difficulty coefficient will increase exponentially!
Xiao Lizi should have also discovered this factor, so in recent years, he has begun to gradually let go of himself, and his image management is getting worse day by day.
But...... That's not enough!
"I'll talk about it when you start playing with water guns." Hanging up the phone, Chen Fei muttered quietly and silently labeled Leonardo.
[Award Insulator! 】
~
At the same time, while Chen Fei was replying to various congratulatory calls and text messages, Ning Hao and Ren Zhonglun on the other side and the negotiation team he brought with him had begun to contact major foreign filmmakers.
A Golden Bear Award and a Berlin actor, the copyright fee of this film is definitely higher than that of "No Man's Land".
"At least double!" Chen Fei set the standard for them.
On the other side, the domestic media and paparazzi finally blocked the returning crew members of "Mei Lanfang" at the capital airport after squatting in shifts.
It's just that in the face of the media interview, Chen Kaige pulled Chen Hong, walked quickly, and left the airport quickly through the VIP channel.
They didn't mean to be interviewed at all.
Li Ming didn't even come to the mainland, and went directly to Hong Kong, just because he was afraid of being surrounded by paparazzi.
However, their actions have made the media collectively angry, and ridicule and scolding have spread all over the major portals and post bars on the Internet.
The refusal to attend the award ceremony was too heartless, and this kind of operation was too incompatible with his identity, and even made many people in the mainland blush for him.
There were so many in the front, but the back left the stage early, which made many fans who supported him feel very surprised, and they took off their fans and left.
"Brother Chen Kai is too good-looking, but the key is that the more face he wants, the more embarrassing he is, if he attends the final closing ceremony, the ridicule on the Internet can be at least two-thirds less."
Ren Zhonglun has a very accurate grasp of his character, after all, the two of them have worked together before, but in the end they broke up unhappily.
"Leave him alone, just let him go, every time, every time his popularity decreases, sooner or later his Palme d'Or fame will have to be consumed."
Chen Fei shrugged his shoulders and didn't pay attention to the ridicule of Chen Kaige on the Internet at all.
This guy has too many manipulations, and even raises his son in a mess.
If you want to make a high-box office movie, you have to be down-to-earth, if you just hold it so high, Chen Hong can worship him as a god!
~
The negotiation of the copyright fee went smoothly, and the negotiation team brought by Ren Zhonglun was really bullish, and the shot was twice that of "No Man's Land", which made a lot of money.
Although there are not many shares that can be shared, Ren Zhonglun still can't close his mouth.
Relying only on one "The Undertaker", his performance this year has been successful, and when he goes to the Film Bureau to report at the end of the year, he can stand up straighter than Han Sanping!
"Lao Han just made a mistake at the beginning of the year, haha." On the plane, Ren Zhonglun began to laugh at Han Sanping.
Chen Fei raised his eyebrows and said: "If nothing else, the box office of "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" will be very high, and almost all the awards in the mainland can be brushed up." ”
"What? What we won is a golden bear, how can those awards in the mainland be compared? "Ren Zhonglun is very proud.
In fact, he doesn't look down on those domestic awards, especially those judges, who are all thieves on the shelves, but they don't have any real skills.
"It's true, one golden bear is enough to kill those domestic awards."
Chen Fei nodded in agreement, except for winning an actor at the Hundred Flowers Award with "Buried Alive" when he first debuted, he almost never participated in the award ceremony in the mainland after that.
Especially after offending the group of "old pedants" in the literary circle, he didn't bother to go to those award ceremonies to find guilt.
landed in the capital, not surprisingly, everyone in the crew of "The Undertaker" was blocked by reporters at the exit of the airport.
Chen Fei didn't learn from Brother Chen Kai, he didn't have such a big shelf, and he didn't hold it all day long like him.
After spending more than half an hour and being interviewed by reporters, he led everyone out of the airport.
Soon, the news about Chen Fei, Ning Hao and others returning to China appeared on the portal, judging from the Reuters photos at the airport, each of them was very polite, which was in stark contrast to the previous Chen Kaige and others.
For a while, netizens were full of praise!
"Look, this is the real belly, look at people's attitude, he deserves to win the award!"
"I wasn't really interested in the commercial film scripts written by Chen Fei before, but after watching "The Undertaker", I realized that he is a person with a very high connotation, 108,000 miles stronger than Brother Chen Kai!"
"When is the Oscar ceremony? Did they come back for a few days and then have to leave again? ”
"The Oscars are on February 22, and there are still 6 days to go, and they definitely have to go, after all, the film was also shortlisted for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film."
"This wave, "The Undertaker" defeated "Mei Lanfang", joining forces, invincible in the world!"
The comments from netizens were full of major portals and post bars, and Chen Kaige also surfed the Internet on weekdays, so he quickly saw these ugly words.
"Foolishness! Ignorant! Tacky! ”
Directly pulled out the power plug of the computer, Chen Kaige got up angrily and slammed the door.
He has to go to Han Sanping, these voices on the Internet must be suppressed, otherwise the impact on him will be too great!
However, when he came to China Film, he found that Han Sanping was not in the office!
The secretary came out to receive him, made him a cup of tea, and informed: "Han Dong went to attend the ribbon-cutting ceremony of Feiyue Film and Television Company, and he may come back very late." ”
The ribbon-cutting ceremony of Feiyue Film and Television Company?
Brother Chen Kai frowned slightly when he heard this, isn't this company opened by Chen Fei? Why did a ribbon-cutting ceremony come about?
Seeing that his face was full of confusion, the secretary simply continued to explain: "Feiyue Film and Television Company purchased a building in the second ring road, and it has been moving a year ago, and today is the opening day.
Director Chen, didn't you receive the invitation letter? I heard that Zhang Yimou, Feng Xiaogang, Wang Quanan and other well-known directors in the circle, first-line actors, and many film and television agencies went to the scene. ”
Hearing this, Brother Chen Kai got up suddenly, his face as black as the bottom of a pot.
He really didn't receive the invitation letter, this was really heart-wrenching, he was very angry today, and Secretary Han Sanping's words were like adding fuel to the fire, almost burning him up!
Thanks to the fact that this is China Film Group, he doesn't dare to go wild.
If it was at home, Arthur would be out of luck today!
Lao Tzu uses his son as a punching bag, this is a matter of course!
~
The second ring is flying into the film and television building.
The ribbon-cutting ceremony is over, and now it's time for everyone to drink, chat, and build friendships.
This kind of activity is very rare for many people, and the film and television investment bosses who can't be seen on weekdays are all present today, and they can take the opportunity to promote their works.
"Mr. Chen, the revenue of film and television investment last year was quite eye-catching! Silent on this bought a house? Wang Zhonglei came over and joked with a smile.
"It's far worse than Huayi." Chen Fei said modestly, "You are the 'five blossoms' of movies, TV series, music, variety shows, and artist brokerage, and the company will be listed at the end of the year, but it is not comparable to my small company." ”
"You're still a small company? If you're a small company, everybody has to eat bran vegetables. Wang Zhonglei complained secretly, but there was a smile on his face, "Won't Mr. Chen take us to visit your new company?" ”
There are a lot of people gathered around, in fact, everyone is quite curious, Feiyue Film and Television has suddenly moved now, and there will definitely be a big move.
I just don't know what he's holding back?
If a few more bombs come out, everyone will have to be completely crushed by him this year!
"Okay, let's go, I'll take you to have a tour."
Chen Fei smiled and led the group of people to the elevator, but he was not stingy, and he was not afraid of revealing any secrets.
Seeing this, many reporters who were invited to come followed with cameras.
They secretly guessed that what they saw next was very likely to be fierce news, and this month's performance might be even better!
"This is the dubbing department of Feiyue Film and Television, this is the post-production department, and the screenwriting department ......"
Chen Fei led everyone up layer by layer and briefly introduced all departments of the company.
The new office building is very spacious, so there is no need for various departments to be crowded together, and everyone has a spacious office area.
It's just that the basic departments that these ordinary film and television production companies have obviously can't arouse everyone's interest, and everyone is a little lacking in interest, and they secretly say in their hearts: "Isn't this nothing?" Aren't they all very common departments? ”
However, when Chen Fei led the group to the new office floor and briefly introduced the situation of the department on this floor, everyone's faces changed slightly.
"This is the animation production department, and Feiyue Film and Television will also make some domestic animated films for young fans to watch."
As soon as these words came out, everyone suddenly thought of "Joyful and Big Big Wolf", which shone in the Chinese New Year, and "Kung Fu Panda", which exploded in China on the eve of last year's Olympic Games.
The market for this kind of animated film is almost blank in China, and many film and television investment companies don't even dare to touch this type of project.
Because in the perception of many people, the movies made by some anime characters are too false and unreal, who knows if they will lose a mess after the release?
However, Chen Fei is different!
His two animated feature films, "Wall-E the Robot" and "Kung Fu Panda," both grossed more than $600 million worldwide, and it is easy to see what that means.
And now, Feiyue Film and Television suddenly opened an animation production department, and Chen Fei personally admitted that the next business will involve the field of domestic animation, does this mean that he will lead a new trend?
For a moment, many people at the scene fell into deep thought.
But the reporters who followed behind were excited, isn't this the shocking news? Isn't that performance? Isn't that where the month-end bonus comes from?
Li Yang has signed a ten-year cooperation contract with Feiyue Film and Television, and now he has arrived in Hollywood and participated in the filming of "Kung Fu Panda".
Chen Fei is optimistic about him, and when he returns from his studies, the company will have a very big surprise waiting for him!
At the same time, just when everyone was thinking differently, Chen Fei led them to the new office area.
Standing in front of the locked glass door, his face suddenly became much more solemn, pointing to the various equipment placed inside, and slowly introduced:
"This department is the special effects production department of Feiyue Film and Television, and I gave it a pretty nice name, called "Finishing Touch", which means the finishing touch.
In the next time, Dianjing Digital will carry out in-depth cooperation with foreign top visual effects, special effects and 3D production companies in the field of industrial light and magic and digital fields, so as to continuously deliver excellent special effects talents for China.
Personally, I think that the importance of domestic films in terms of special effects is still too low, and if you want to get a high box office, you have to invest more money, make big productions, and engage in 3DIMAX like those big Hollywood productions, which is the development trend of future movies......"
Chen Fei said a lot about his vision for the future, which directly made everyone present feel that their brains began to buzz.
Especially Wang Zhonglei, who was closest to Chen Fei, he always felt that what he said just now was said to him!
Xu Ke and Chen Guofu have been like tricks recently, babbling in front of him all day long about how awesome the 3D special effects are, how shocking!
The meaning of these two people's words is that they want Huayi to spend more money to make "Di Renjie's Heavenly Empire" into a 3D version and add more special effects.
Wang Zhonglei always disagreed with the idea of the two at first, after all, in addition to high investment, it also means that there will be extremely high risks!
He didn't dare to gamble, if he lost, although Huayi would not lie down directly, the follow-up development would inevitably be affected.
But after listening to Chen Fei's words today, he suddenly felt that he was a little too cautious?
If you don't have enough courage, how can you lead Huayi to gain a firm foothold in the A-share market after its successful listing?
And there are no 3D domestic films in China yet, if Huayi can seize this outlet, it will take off directly, and it will even stimulate the increase in stock prices.
He recently learned a new vocabulary from tech companies called "concept stocks"!
If the concept of 3D special effects is applied to the next movie shooting, will Huayi's stock price usher in a surge after listing?
Thinking in his heart, he was already ready to move.
Especially after looking up at Chen Fei, who was full of confidence, a bold idea popped up in his heart!
Since Chen Fei still holds the original shares of Huayi in his hands, then he can be regarded as a shareholder, why don't you tie him to Huayi's chariot and support this concept even more?
And, if he remembers correctly, Chen Fei's 3D movie "Inception" made last year will also be released this year.
Although he doesn't know the specific time yet, he thinks that the box office should not be bad, after all, the cast is really scary!
When the time comes, when this movie is released, Huayi will find another wave of media hype, isn't this a proper "top concept stock"?
Thinking of this, Wang Zhonglei's eyes suddenly lit up.
At this time, Chen Fei, who was paying attention to his expression, smiled slightly, and a bright smile bloomed on his face.
Right! The first customer after the establishment of "Dianjing Digital" is stable!
A good hunter tends to come out as prey.
Wang Zhonglei wants to use his fame as a concept stock, but on the other hand, if the special effects produced in post-production are excellent enough, amazing enough, and shocking enough, then the name of "Dianjing Digital" will inevitably become famous in the film industry in a short time!
Chen Fei is not just a small post-production special effects department, his goal is the special effects market of the entire Chinese film industry!
Either you don't do it, or if you want to do it, you have to be the well-deserved No.1 in Huaxia Film and Television Special Effects Company!
He was very sure that the day would not come too late.
