370, the second fortune boy is here, the new four little flowers in the mainland? Your first time?
After chatting for more than an hour, Lu Zheng took Jing Tian and left Feiyue Film and Television.
Before leaving, the little girl was full of confidence and kept thanking Chen Fei, and her eyes were shining when she looked at him, which could be described as a visible worship!
It is no exaggeration to say that Chen Fei's words just now are even more effective than her acting class last month!
And this has led her to feel more and more admiration for this big brother who is only a few years older than her, and there are even some different feelings mixed with it.
"Won't Mr. Chen go to dinner with us? I've prepared the food and drinks in advance, and I'm waiting for you to enjoy your face. ”
"Haha, thank you Mr. Lu for your kindness, let's make an appointment next time, there are other people waiting for me to meet."
"Okay, I would like to thank Mr. Chen for his starry support, and I hope we will have more opportunities for cooperation in the future."
"Don't worry, there will be."
"Senior Brother Chen Fei, goodbye!"
"See you later."
Chen Fei sent the two out of the door of the company with a smile.
After the cooperation is negotiated, the next step is to officially launch the film shooting project.
The director has decided that Ye Weixin will be in charge, this guy has always wanted to shoot his own "A Chinese Ghost Story", and this time it can be regarded as a wish.
The male lead has not yet been decided, but because the partner is Golden Harvest, a male lead must be selected from Hong Kong.
"You tell Huo Qigang, let's find an acting school to take her with you, this girl is really a little casual in terms of performance, she has to be trained hard!"
"Haha, okay."
Su Guohai smiled and nodded.

The second "Fortune Boy" came in the afternoon.
"Mr. Wang, Director Chen, Director Xu, haha, welcome to the Humble House!"
Looking at the visiting Wang Zhongjun, Chen Guofu, and Xu Ke, the smile on Chen Fei's face was bright.
After half a year of paving, I finally waited for these three, and many of my previous efforts were not in vain.
"Hey, if Mr. Chen's place is still a humble house, then our Huayi will have to be called a burrow." Wang Zhongjun came over this time and deliberately didn't bring Wang Zhonglei, probably knowing that the two didn't deal with each other much.
When talking about business, if there is a person who separates the management from the present, who can have a good mood when stepping on the horse?
A few people sat down in the tea room, and after a few words of greeting, Wang Zhongjun directly pointed out the theme of the visit: "I heard that Mr. Chen's digital work is progressing quite smoothly? ”
Chen Fei smiled slightly, "Thanks to the care of my friends, I introduced a few small jobs." ”
"Then I wonder if Mr. Chen is willing to cooperate with our friend Huayi?"
"Oh?" Chen Fei pretended to be confused, "Please also ask Mr. Wang to say, after all, you also know my character, and what we Feiyue Film and Television uphold has always been win-win cooperation." ”
Wang Zhongjun laughed and said: "China Film recently invested in a costume action movie, called "Di Renjie's Tongtian Empire", which has been decided to be filmed by director Xu Ke.
However, we have some disagreements at the moment, mainly in terms of special effects......"
Xu Ke's positioning of the scene of this movie is "Oriental Magic", so many special effects are needed to show the ghost market full of magic.
But if you add a lot of special effects, there is no doubt that the investment amount will have to be increased at least several times!
In the initial version of the plan, Wang Zhongjun only wanted to make an ordinary costume action movie, at most adding a few special effects to the fighting action.
However, Xu Ke is a director who is unwilling to be complacent, he is bent on putting a lot of effort into visual effects, showing fans a different "costume action" + "oriental magic" type of movie.
Wang Zhongjun has not been very optimistic about his bold idea in the early stage, after all, the market for costume martial arts movies has become more and more sluggish in recent years, and if you are not careful, you will lose money!
However, the establishment of "Dianjing Digital" gave him some different thoughts.
"So, Mr. Wang, what do you mean?" Chen Fei was still pretending to be confused.
Wang Zhongjun simply made it clear and said: "Just like our previous cooperation in "The Wind", this time, I would like to invite Feiyue Film and Television to join the production of "Di Renjie's Tongtian Empire".
You are mainly responsible for the production of special effects, earning a part of the box office revenue and copyright share, what do you think? ”
Xu Ke on the side sighed silently in his heart, he originally wanted to directly engage in the IMAX3D version, so he even went to the crew of "Inception" to be an assistant director for a few months.
However, Wang Zhongjun directly vetoed his idea?
Engage in IMAX3D in China? Isn't this horse a pure death?
Now it is a big concession to be able to add special effects according to his wishes, as for more requirements, don't think about it, the management has to consider the box office revenue after the release of the movie, and it is absolutely impossible for him to come by his temperament.
"There is still a long way to go!" Xu Ke secretly sighed in his heart.
But then, he suddenly thought of something that Bona boss Yu Dong said when he came to him a few days ago.
The other party wants to make an extension of the 1992 version of "New Dragon Gate Inn" and continue to make a martial arts movie, and the amount of money that he is willing to invest is very sufficient.
"Why don't you make a fuss about this?" Xu Ke thought secretly, and his thoughts began to spread on a large scale again.
After watching the finished effect of "Inception", he really wanted to make a domestic IMAX3D movie to prove that the route he had adhered to for many years was correct!
~
The cooperation talks went very smoothly, after all, Chen Fei's previous goal has always been this "Di Renjie's Tongtian Empire", and this is also the most suitable training project that Dianjing Digital can access at present.
The contract was signed in the afternoon of the same day, and Feiyue Film and Television was responsible for all the special effects pictures, accounting for 30% of the final box office and copyright revenue.
The next morning, Huayi announced the cooperation.
The listing is imminent, and the bonus role played by this cooperation is very strong, which directly makes the capital market optimistic about it soaring!
For a while, many film and television investment companies in the circle have set their sights on this side, and various media have flocked to it, wanting to interview more details about this cooperation.
However, Chen Fei had already boarded the plane to Los Angeles overnight, and he didn't give reporters a chance to surround him at all!
However, there are still some lucky reporters who took photos of him and Jiang Yurou when they parted at the door of the private restaurant, and also made a lot of subjective and personal speculations.
As for those suspicions on the Internet, Jiang Yirou made an intuitive response when she held a press conference for Zhou Yi's three TV series.
"We did talk about some projects, but we didn't come to a collaboration."
When Chen Fei, who was far away in Los Angeles, heard this answer, he was a little helpless about Jiang Yurou.
This woman's heart is really high!
Looking at the Huayi side, the heat simply soared, and the cooperation items aroused a wide range of attention as soon as they were announced, and the response was very good.
But what about Zhou Yi's side?
As soon as Jiang Yurou's response came out, the major film and television investment companies in the circle almost flew away from her!
Who in the circle doesn't know that Chen Fei's vision is notoriously vicious, especially in terms of film and television investment, he has almost no failures at present!
And the cooperation between Jiang Yirou and Chen Fei failed to be successful, doesn't it mean that Zhou Yi is going to be completely finished?
Capital is very cruel, for a company that has no future and hope, who is willing to invest money regardless of the cost?
"Pick-up man" is not a good word, and everyone is trying their best to avoid appearing in such an identity.

There were a lot of interesting things happening in China in April, and some news even reached Los Angeles.
Brother Chen Kai's wife was the first to make a fuss, and I heard that she had damaged the borrowed dress and refused to compensate, and then she was sued by other clothing brands.
There are many people in the circle who are watching the excitement.
Netizens are also coaxing, and they don't know which clothing brand this is, and they dare not to give face to Mrs. Chen? Don't you know that Director Chen's mind is only enough for a steamed bun?
However, the final result was quite unexpected, just in the morning the lawsuit was filed, and the lawsuit was suddenly withdrawn in the afternoon, which is really surprising.
"Poof? Everything is a misunderstanding? ”
Looking at the explanation published on the Internet, Chen Fei was immediately happy, and he didn't have to think about it to know that it must have been Brother Chen Kai, and the big director's face was still slightly bigger than his wife.
After this incident, it is estimated that Mrs. Chen will have to worship her husband as a god again!
Chen Fei could even think of the conversation between the two when they were lying in bed at night.
Chen Hong: "Husband, you are so amazing! ”
Brother Chen Kai slowly exhaled a cigarette: "Of course." ”
Zhang Wei's comment on the new picture is also restless, and the cast of "Three Guns Shooting Surprise" has been suffering from various criticisms since it was announced.
When interviewed by reporters, Zhang Wei commented amazingly, "This cooperation with Liu Laogen is actually a process of "learning from each other's strengths".
Yimou will use the large-scale scene scheduling techniques that he is good at to integrate with the humorous lines and performances of the two-person actors, so that the film can achieve a situation where the story and vision bloom together at the same time, and win a win-win situation in awards and box office.
If nothing else, the latest box office data of domestic films will be successfully refreshed by "Three Guns Shooting Surprise"! ”
"Poof......
When Chen Fei saw this interview, he immediately became more happy.
It may not be possible to get this guy to do business, but let him brag and pretend to be a good hand.
Also refresh the box office data of domestic films?
He is already very awesome if he can guarantee that he will not lose money!
Zhang Weiping is still working marketing, and on the other side, while ensuring the normal publicity and distribution of "Anti-Drug" and "Eavesdropping 3", Emperor and Shangying held a launch conference for the TV series version of "Myth".
Chen Long announced at the press conference that the "Myth" TV series is adapted from the film, and he himself will serve as the director, and invited director Tang Jili to serve as the artistic director.
Originally, Chen Fei was also one of the people who were invited, but because he was too busy with the work at hand, he couldn't go back.
However, at the press conference, Chen Long still specifically mentioned him and said that he would play a very important role in the play.
For a while, the media seemed to have seized the bright spot, and the topic of the interview once focused on Chen Fei.
As the male lead, although Hu Ge suffered some snubs, he didn't care, after all, being able to invite Chen Fei already represents the success of this drama!
What's more, the success of a TV series is closely related to the actor, and the temporary snub is nothing compared to the skyrocketing ratings.
The only thing he is curious about now is, who will play the female number one?
I heard that the competition among female stars in the circle is extremely fierce, and I don't know who will end up with it?
Of course, no matter who ends up with the flowers, don't want to compare with Liu Yifei's invincible lucky star!
"Super Body" held a launch conference in Los Angeles, and a poster spread from Hollywood to China, arousing the envy and jealousy of countless female stars in the circle.
In the center of the poster, there is Liu Yifei's beautiful face, and on her left and right are Morgan Freeman and Gary Oldman!
Although the content of the poster did not reveal too many details about the movie, it still attracted the attention of a large number of media and netizens.
"Liu Yifei, the best developed actress of the new generation!"
"Damn, this poster is so handsome! I didn't expect my family to have such a heroic side. ”
"Can you star in a Hollywood blockbuster? This coffee position is really high! ”
“……”
When it comes to fan support and fan stickiness, in the group of post-85 actresses, Liu Yifei is already in a leading position.
At this time, CCTV reported on the new candidates for the Four Little Flowers, which were jointly selected by hundreds of mainstream media and millions of fans in the industry.
Liu Yifei, Wang Luoji, Huang Shengyi, Yang Mi!
As soon as the report appeared, it immediately caused a huge heated discussion on the Internet!
"Good fellows? How did this selection work? Wang Luoji can barely make do, after all, she also starred in the heroine of Hollywood sci-fi blockbusters like "Rise of the Planet of the Apes", but what are the latter two doing? ”
"I just want to ask, what are Huang Shengyi's masterpieces? In addition to the dumb girl in "Kung Fu", does she have any other roles that she can take? ”
"You don't know that, do you? Huang Shengyi partnered Dwayne Johnson in Hollywood last year to make a sci-fi action movie called "The Adventure of Wushan", and he can barely be regarded as a person who has mixed with Hollywood. ”
"Huh? Why haven't I heard of this film? Is it released? How much is the box office? She plays the heroine in it? ”
"Heroine? How is it possible, she only starred in a female supporting role that showed her face a few times, and she didn't even have a few lines. ”
"What a fart about stepping on a horse? Can this still become four little flowers? She doesn't even deserve to lift shoes for Liu Yifei! ”
Group ridicule on the Internet continues to emerge, and even many well-known people say that Liu Yifei is no longer suitable for appearing on this list.
She has received high-luxury endorsements, and her movies have won more than 600 million box office in the mainland, and she has also won many awards such as the Saturn Award and the Oscar, and now she has become the heroine of Hollywood blockbusters......
Comparing her with Huang Shengyi and Yang Mi in her capacity seems to be more like an insult to her!
Under pressure, the organizers could only come out and explain.
"The purpose of the selection of the previous Four Little Flowers is to select the four most popular young actresses at the moment, such as Zhao Wei, Zhang Ziyi, Zhou Xun, and Xu Jinlei in the last session.
And this time, we should also uphold this tradition and select the four young actresses who are currently the hottest among young people.
It is true that Liu Yifei is indeed the top existence among her peers at the moment, but we can't eliminate her because she is the strongest, right? That's also unreasonable. ”
This explanation barely convinced everyone, but it was a little unfriendly to the other three people except Liu Yifei.
Wang Luoji is okay, as the first "Flying Girl", her current development route is quite stable, and she also has many excellent masterpieces.
But Huang Shengyi and Yang Mi were a little uncomfortable.
After all, they really don't have any masterpieces that they can get their hands on.
Huang Shengyi barely has a "Kung Fu", but although Yang Mi claims to be the first sister of Rong Xinda, there are no works that can be done at all!
"The Legend of Sword and Fairy III" has not been broadcast in the mainland at this time, so her identity as a "Hua Dan" has suffered a lot of doubts.
"I'm going to prove myself!"
Holding the script of "Palace Lock Heart Jade" in her hand, Yang Mi secretly swore that one day she would definitely get ahead, and when the time came, she would definitely impress those who looked down on her!
Huang Shengyi on the other side is also incompetent and furious, and she is very angry at the ridicule of netizens!
"Hmph, what's the big deal? Isn't it just that you have found a good financier? If I could have the same resources as hers, I would definitely be much better than she is now! ”
That is, Yang Zai is not at home today, otherwise she would never dare to complain like this.
In fact, she had also sent some suggestive text messages and emails to Chen Fei many times before, but unfortunately she didn't get a response from the other party at all, which was one of the reasons why she was angry.
……
In a blink of an eye, we have stepped into May.
Just when the three Hollywood blockbusters "Fast and Furious 4", "Wolverine" and "Star Trek" were hunting in the domestic film market, the Cannes Film Festival officially announced the films shortlisted for the main competition unit.
Mainland filmmakers sent a lot of works, but only Lou Ye was shortlisted.
It's just that netizens' attention is focused on the opening ceremony video.
"Inception", Director: Chen Fei!
The fast-eyed media immediately reported that Chen Fei's new film would be the opening ceremony of the Cannes Film Festival.
For a while, netizens were happy.
"Hahaha, Li Press and Venice still failed in their pursuit after all, and Director Chen's first time was taken away by the Cannes Film Festival."
"Poof! Brother upstairs, this is also ambiguous, right? I don't know, I think Director Chen is not clean. ”
"Damn, I've been staring at this film for a long time, and I want to get an admission ticket this time!"
"Go along! Let's go! ”
“……”
Chen Fei received several phone calls, and some of them belonged to Li Press.
"Alas, I made a mistake, I knew I should have invited you to bring this film to Venice in advance."
"It's too late, and by the time the opening ceremony of the Venice International Film Festival comes, I'm afraid my film will already be released."
"Well, alas!"
Li hung up the phone with a sigh of mourning, feeling a little depressed in his heart, he seemed to be a little worried about not being able to get Chen Fei's first time?
……
(ps: The first shift, ask for a monthly pass, and there will be at night!) )
