After bidding farewell to Isabel, Chen Fei signed a name for the waitress at the coffee shop and returned to the company.

The paparazzi and reporters who secretly photographed him sent out the news of his meeting with Isabel, combined with the identity of the other party's chairman of the jury of the main competition unit of the Cannes Film Festival, which immediately aroused the suspicion of many people.

"First Li Press in Venice, then Isabel in Cannes, good guy, Director Chen, this is simply fragrant?"

"Tsk, I don't know who can take Director Chen?"

"Let's look forward to it first, I heard that "Inception" held a test screening, it's a pity, I don't have a chance to see it in China."

Chen Fei ignored the suspicious voices on the Internet, and even in the face of interviews with reporters, he remained secretive, waiting for the official announcement of the Cannes Film Festival before cooperating with the publicity.

The time soon came to mid-April, and "Slumdog Millionaire" was officially drawn in China, and finally won 170 million yuan at the box office.

At this point, Chen Fei's "Oscar-winning masterpiece" has officially come to an end.

This $50 million film has a total of $548 million at the global box office, which can be described as a double harvest of box office awards, and the profit margin is comparable to the total revenue of all Lionsgate films last year!

In the category of Hollywood independent film production companies, Walton Pictures has successfully established the No. 1 status, which has also laid a solid foundation for the subsequent listing plan.

For subsequent copyright sales and DVD sales, there will be special personnel in the company who are responsible for docking, so Chen Fei does not need to do it himself.

So he took some free time and focused his attention on the domestic side.

"Snow Leopard" was completed, Su Guohai personally organized the finale banquet, and arranged for the editing department to produce the post-production as soon as possible.

The opening ceremony of "Cinema for the Blind" caused quite a stir because of Ning Hao's arrival, and the media suddenly discovered that for this movie with an investment of millions, Feiyue Film and Television unexpectedly attached great importance to it!

What they don't know is that what Chen Fei cares about is not the movie, but the person who made the movie.

Whether it is Lu Yang or Li Yang, he has great expectations for both of them, and helping them realize their dreams can also be regarded as an upfront investment.

In addition to this, there is another very important thing!

The first batch of elite talents sent to the two special effects companies in the industrial light and magic and digital fields officially returned to China in mid-April, accompanied by a team of top foreign special effects artists.

And this also means that the mainland's first special effects company focusing on film and television production, "Dianjing Digital", will be officially put into use!

Although Chen Fei did not return to China to attend the opening ceremony, the calls from the mainland came one after another.

Naturally, the leaders are China Film, Shanghai Film, Huayi, Light, and Bona......

"Mr. Han, haha, if there are any projects in the future, I will ask you to take care of them more."

On the other end of the phone, Han Sanping swore and promised: "Don't worry about this, although I don't know much about these ways, but your eye-catching digital is our first special effects company in China, and China Film will definitely support it." ”

Ren Zhonglun is not to mention that, the relationship between Shangying and Feiyue Film and Television is good, and they are about to be able to wear a pair of pants.

However, Huayi was a little chattering, and while Wang Zhonglei called to congratulate him, he said that he could form a bureau to chat when Chen Fei came back.

In this regard, Chen Fei happily agreed.

Jiang Taigong fishing, the main one is a wisher to take the bait!

The development of special effects companies is independent of Feiyue Film and Television, electricity, software costs, labor costs, equipment... These are not small amounts, and it is difficult to make a profit in a short period of time.

Therefore, so far, these capital investments are the responsibility of Longxiang Capital.

Anyway, it's useless to hold the money in your hands, it's over when you spend it, and you can still get foreign exchange for the country, so why not?

Chen Fei's goal is to cast a long line to catch big fish, these small artillery battles in the mainland are not interesting, he is ready to wait for these people to be proficient in the operation, and then go to the film and television circle to drop a super nuclear bomb!

Most of the film and television industry's attitude towards "Dotting Digital" is not very optimistic, this thing costs too much, and it is completely dispensable for the current mainland film market.

Zhang Weiping made it clear that if he had this need, he would definitely take it outside to do it.

For example, in "Three Guns Shooting Surprise", part of the picture is invited to a foreign company, and the professional level there has been verified.

Unlike his pessimistic arguments, netizens are quite excited about it.

"? The first special effects company in China? This row of noodles is dripping! ”

"I've heard that special effects cost a lot of money, and I don't know if I can afford them. Don't end up closing your doors again. ”

"Heh, don't you look at who runs this company? The boss is Chen Fei, making movies is often hundreds of millions of dollars, can he play with special effects? ”

"That's right, there's nothing we can't do in Huaxia! Just dare to think! You can do it! ”

Feng Xiaogang, who was filming "Tangshan Earthquake", saw the news in his busy schedule and suddenly his eyes lit up.

Compared with foreign special effects companies, mainland special effects companies will definitely have discounts in price, and it just so happens that the movie he is making now has a lot of visual effects needs, why don't you take out some of it and hand it over to Dianjing Digital to do?

The money saved can also be used for publicity, and it can be regarded as supporting Chen Fei's career, which can barely be called a favor.

However, he definitely can't be the master himself, and he has to talk to the two producers, Huayi and China Film.

……

A phone call interrupted Chen Fei's busyness.

"Sister Jiang?"

Chen Fei confirmed it several times, and only then did he come back to his senses after confirming that it was indeed Zhou Yi's Jiang Xue on the other end of the phone.

Speaking of which, since the filming of "Young King Wesley" in 05, he has not had any in-depth cooperation with Zhou Yi.

The two sides completely broke off communication, which should be after "Water Moon Cave Sky".

Although I met a few times at major award ceremonies in the follow-up, there was not much communication, and the relationship gradually became estranged.

Especially as he develops better and better, the gap between the two sides is getting bigger and bigger, and everyone has long lost the friendship that they could call and invite to sing casually.

Even including those classmates in the previous Nortel class, now only Liu Yifei, Zhu Yawen, and Luo Jin have been in contact with him, and the others have already parted ways.

Jiang Yiyan entered Orange Sky Entertainment, which completely stimulated the attributes of green tea, and the whole person was nervous, preaching the black history of his classmates everywhere.

And Zhou Yang finally got plastic surgery, said goodbye to the film industry completely, and could only mix in the TV circle.

The last time he talked to Zhu Yawen on the phone, he also said that he introduced two dramas to Zhou Yang, but in the end, he was brushed off because he failed the audition.

It can only be said that it is planting evil causes and eating evil effects......

"Director Chen, I haven't seen you for a long time, what have you been busy with lately?"

Jiang Xue didn't say anything more on the phone, the two sides chatted with each other for a few words, and after agreeing to meet sometime, they ended the call.

Chen Fei did not hesitate, and directly called Su Guohai.

According to the timeline, he vaguely felt that there should be a problem with Zhou Yi, but he still had to check the details.

"Lao Su, are you familiar with Jiang Xue? Do you know what's going on with her there? ”

"You mean Zhou Yi?"

Su Guohai seems to have investigated these for a long time, and even explained a lot of what he learned to Chen Fei.

"Zhou Yi's development in the past two years has been extremely poor, especially after the two modern dramas lost money the year before last, their investors directly chose to terminate the contract, so there are no new works coming out in the past two years......"

"So, I'm afraid they won't be able to bear it?"

Chen Fei's eyes flickered slightly, and he suddenly had a bold idea.

Zhou Yi's production team is definitely one of the best in the TV circle in terms of costume dramas, such as "Water Moon Cave Sky", "Xiao Shiyi Lang", etc., all of which are classics.

is the only one that has been tepid in modern dramas, and this also means that their future development model can only be to deeply cultivate costume dramas.

But then again, without a good script and without strong investors, what do they use to make TV series?

It's like holding the world's most lucrative porcelain job in your hand, but without diamonds, it's like crying without tears.

But...... What they don't have, Feiyue Film and Television has it!

"You help me book a private box, the time is set for three days later, I will return to China in person, I have to talk to Jiang Xue about Zhou Yi's future, if she is willing to accept it, it is not impossible to come back to life."

"Okay."

Su Guohai didn't ask much, and went straight to do something.

That night, Chen Fei took a flight to South Korea, and he had to stop by SBS TV, and they had to prepare the script first.

He's already thought about which movie they'll make first!

Since it is a good start, it naturally has to be red enough, dazzling enough, and excellent enough!

But before that, he had to go to Lin Yu'er's house first.

Landing in Seoul, there was no pick-up link this time, Chen Fei wore a mask and sunglasses, and came to the parking lot in a very low-key manner, and met Lin Yu'er who was waiting here.

Li Zhien's little sister has a very tight schedule, and she happened to go to Singapore today, so it's a pity that I can't meet her favorite Oba.

"Oba, how long will you stay in Seoul this time?"

In the car, Lin Yuer asked in a low voice while controlling the steering wheel.

"Probably two days or so, what? Can I help you? ”

"No, I just have some regrets that I can't go around Seoul with Oba."

Chen Fei smiled, "Call you when I have time, there's nothing interesting in Seoul, you come to Los Angeles, I'll take you to see the newly built film and television city." ”

"Okay! Then I'll wait for Oba's call! ”

The two of them quickly returned to the villa area, and after making sure that there were no paparazzi following behind, the two entered the villa.

A caring woman will always put the bath water for you in advance, and a more caring woman will help you get rid of the fatigue of the trip in the bathtub.

Chen Fei leaned on the edge of the bathtub, looked down at Lin Yu'er who was sitting on her knees, touched her pretty face and said, "Thank you for your hard work." ”

"It's not hard." Lin Yu'er made a muffled sound from her mouth.

The water in the tub is not very full, so she does not choke on the water, but her mouth is too full, and sometimes it reaches her throat.

The only thing that makes her regret is that even though she was so busy that the bath water was cold, she still couldn't get the reward she wanted.

"Oba, I'll wipe it for you, the air conditioner in the bedroom has been turned on, how about we go inside?"

Chen Fei nodded slightly, enjoying her gentleness.

After entering the room, Lin Yu'er began to get busy again, but she was busy until her mouth was sour, but she still couldn't get the gift she wanted.

Helpless, she just raised her head, stared at Chen Fei with a pair of watery eyes, and said softly: "Oba, hungry!" ”

Chen Fei raised his eyebrows slightly, signaling that she might as well try another way.

Sure enough, after changing the method, it will be much faster.

"How's it going, are you still feeling hungry?"

"Slow... Slow down...... Eating too much...... Yes...... Break your belly! ”
