As soon as New Year's Day passed, the competition for the Lunar New Year stalls in the mainland was temporarily announced to be over.

"Sweeping Drugs" was the first to leave, with a total box office income of 247 million, which can be called a perfect ending!

As expected, the follow-up awards will inevitably be soft, at least the Golden Statue of Xiangjiang and the Golden Horse of Wanwan must have been booked.

And "Three Guns Shooting Surprise", which boasted a lot in the early stage, claiming to break the record of the Chinese film market, also chose to withdraw from the theater chain.

At present, this movie has become a major stain in Zhang Yimou's directorial career, and its degree of arrest is comparable to Chen Kaige's "a bloody case caused by steamed buns"!

And with the release of "Three Guns", Han Sanping, who was appraised by Zhang Wei as a "mountain carving", will definitely not give up.

The media soon reported on the total box office results of "Three Guns".

256 million!

Compared with the cost of less than 30 million, this box office income is definitely a lot of money, but the reputation of the movie has collapsed.

Zhang Yimou just "became a god" last year, but this year he was pulled off the altar by changing hands, and Zhang Wei commented that there was no one else in this operation.

Many people in the industry are watching his jokes, and the invitation letter of the Golden Broom Award was sent directly to the front desk of the new picture company, focusing on a "mockery"!

Zhang Weiping has not appeared for several days, and many media are looking for him, but they can't catch him.

Zhang Yimou didn't hide or hide, but he devoted himself to the casting and training of "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling", and did not give reporters the opportunity to interview at all.

For a while, Neiyu fell into a very strange silence.

Everyone is waiting.

Wait for a more explosive and eye-catching hot news event!

At the same time, Chen Fei, who was on the Hollywood side, and Natasha discussed the next expansion plan of Walton Pictures.

The stock price has soared, and there is a lot of money in the company's account, and it is useless to keep these things, it is better to take them out and spend them.

"You study it, first acquire Netflix (Netflix), the future streaming platform is also a major development direction, we have to plan in advance."

Natasha was a little puzzled, "But don't we already have Hulu?" ”

"Netflix on the left and Hulu on the right, all-round development, so that we can ensure that we are invincible!"

Chen Fei didn't explain much, just asked her to gather the team to do it.

Natasha naturally won't ask too much about the fact that Walton Pictures has been able to develop to the point where it is now, and the effect of her as CEO is actually not great, mainly because Chen Fei is strategizing behind the scenes.

As for herself...... The main thing is to listen to persuasion!

"And one of the most important things is that in the next year, you're going to have to open Volton Pictures all over the world.

In particular, I need to pay attention to Neon, there is a company called "Tsuburaya Co., Ltd.", and my request is that no matter how much money it costs, it must be successfully acquired for me, and then the copyright will be sorted out for me......"

This can be regarded as an obsession of Chen Fei.

What the hell is Gundam vs. Godzilla?

And who's Gundam has a setting where you can only transform for three minutes!

This kind of famous scene must be played by the original Ultraman!

Damn Warner Bros., pure stepping horses are sick!

“Ok，l know……”

Natasha kept nodding her head and recorded what Chen Fei said in her notebook, she belonged to the kind of doer and action-oriented style, and her work efficiency was much higher than that of Bruce.

Bruce can't count on anything other than partying.

But then again, if the party is done well, the effect is actually quite good, at least in the competition for the Oscars, Chen Fei does not need to put too much energy into it.

All he had to do was ask Bruce to start the party one after another, the wine to be poured down one glass after another, and the dollars to be spilled in a big way......

Ay!

And that's it!

……

After the work arrangement for the future development of Walton Pictures ended, Chen Fei once again devoted himself to the post-production of "The Hunger Games", and occasionally helped to promote "Kung Fu Panda 2" before its release.

On the mainland side, the media finally waited for the big news that could "detonate the eyeballs"!

"Avatar"... It's released!

As the second 3D sci-fi blockbuster after "Inception", the schedule of "Avatar" is full as soon as it comes up, and the main theme is a 'menacing'.

If the first impression of the former to mainland fans is "amazing", then the latter brings - "shock"!

After all, in terms of visual impact, the 3D-lMAX effect of "Avatar" is much stronger than that of "Inception"!

First-day box office: 47.6 million

The next day's box office: 41.35 million

Three-day box office: 45.96 million

It was only released for three days and raked in 134 million yuan!

The theater side directly made crazy money.

Huo Qigang called, and his mouth couldn't close with a smile, "Chen Fei, I have decided that I want to invest all this money in the development of theaters, what 3D theaters, IMAX giant screen theaters, our Pan Asia Cinema Line wants to monopolize the mainland film market......"

"Okay, okay, don't daydream, you hurry up and buy the land first, get the right land in your hands and then build a theater."

"Oh well, I see."

Huo Qigang nodded, hung up the phone, and once again devoted himself to the busy work of "buying land" and "planning".

However, compared with the carnival of the theater side, the producers in the mainland are a little crying.

Under the strong impact of "Avatar", domestic movies are like small paper boats in a storm, not to mention trying to float, it is already very good to be able to hold on without being torn apart!

"Cool! It's so cool! This picture is so cool and explosive! ”

Outside the theater, Guo Fan, who had just spent 180 yuan, put down his 3D glasses and came directly to the sky with a long roar, frantically venting the excitement and shock in his heart.

And Gong Ge'er, a classmate and friend standing next to him, was also in a state of not relieving himself at this time!

The two originally thought that "Inception" was invincible in the world, but they never expected that James Cameron would create a new "planet" just after his debut!

For domestic science fiction movies, it can't even be described as crushing, and the purity is "dimensionality reduction strike"!

After calming down, Guo Fan worked very hard to compare "Avatar" with domestic sci-fi films.

But after thinking about it, there was only one "Cyborg" that popped up in his mind......

A damn feeling of depression instantly enveloped his whole body, making it difficult for him to speak for a long time!

"Let's go, let's go back and eat chaff vegetables, and the living expenses will be spent again." Gong Ge'er patted him on the shoulder, signaling that it was time for him to go back.

Guo Fan nodded slightly, clenched his fists and took two steps forward, and suddenly turned his head, "Old Gong, how did you inquire about the matter I told you some time ago?" ”

"The copyright of "The Adventures of Li Xianli"?"

"Yes!"

"I inquired, the copyright is in the hands of the original author, that is, that Li Yang, but he is the contracted director of Feiyue Film and Television, how can he cooperate with us?"

Leap Film and Television?

Signed director?

Guo Fan was slightly stunned, but instead of showing a disappointed expression, his eyes lit up instantly as if he had discovered a new continent.

"Let's go! Let's go back and get the script first! Let's go to the film and television together! ”

"What are you doing?" Gong Ge'er looked at him blankly.

"Turning the Edge...... Ahh Pull investment! Isn't it easy for such a big company to invest in our movies? ”

“？？？”

……

……

Chen Fei really didn't expect that the release of "Avatar" in China could still involve him!

When Han Sanping called, he was busy modeling, and there was a set of pictures that he was not satisfied with how others made him, so he had to do it himself.

"The Children's Bureau asked me to inform you and come back for a meeting."

Meeting?

"What are you doing! Don't you go, okay? I'm still busy with post-production! ”

Chen Fei didn't want to go back, in the past, the film bureau would often call him to a meeting, but after he made excuses and resigned a few times, they didn't call him much.

Now that he's suddenly calling him again, what is this for?

Han Sanping said in a deep voice: ""Inception" is 1.568 billion in the mainland, and "Avatar" seems to be able to steadily break through the 1 billion yuan box office mark, on the other hand, dozens of domestic movies in the same period are dead and crippled, and none of them can resist, and "Zodiac" can barely withstand it, do you know what it means? ”

Chen Fei, "Those commercial film directors who are still blind in the mainland should smoke their mouths?" ”

"Hey! What do you say? ”

Han Sanping suddenly felt a little nervous, although she should indeed smoke it, but she couldn't say it clearly!

"Kind of give me face, you come back, teach those guys a lesson, teach some experience, okay?"

"When?"

"When is it convenient? I told the children's bureau and asked him to arrange it. ”

"Yo? The official lord gave me face like this? It's an honor, huh? ”

Chen Fei raised his eyebrows, thought for a moment and replied: "Then put it after the Film and Television Golden Globe Awards, I have to go and come back with a few trophies first, if anyone doesn't want to listen to me at that time, then I will smash the trophies on their heads, what do you think?" ”

For Chen Fei's unstingy temperament, Han Sanping is used to it, and even responded.

"Okay, I'll wait for you to come back!"

～

"India, the global box office of "Three Fools in Bollywood" officially exceeded 80 million US dollars......"

"South Korea, the number of viewers of "Lone Agent" has exceeded 7 million, and it is a real hammer, and director Chen Fei is really my great South Korean people!"

"The box office data of "Zodiac" tends to flatten, the mainland box office officially exceeded 400 million yuan, and Chen Long was officially promoted to a member of the 400 million commercial film club of Chinese films."

"The box office data of "Avatar" is gradually increasing, and the total global box office is about to exceed $1 billion......"

Although time has passed day by day, the popularity of the New Year stalls has been maintained at a high point, and there is a feeling of enduring time.

On January 18th, the 67th American Film and Television Golden Globe Awards was officially held!

After getting up in the morning, Chen Fei first went to the company to complete the rendezvous with others, and then took more than a dozen MPVs and went straight to the Hilton Hotel.

In the car, Chen Fei deliberately paid attention to Catherine Bigelow's state.

Today, she needs to compete with her ex-husband (James Cameron) for best director, and the media have been warming up for a long time, and I don't know who will win the award between the couple?

"Fei, don't look at me with this kind of eyes, the Golden Globe Awards have long reached the realm of only looking at the box office and not looking at acting skills, and I am here to promote this time."

Kathryn Bigelow looks very indifferent, she doesn't think that "Bomb Disposal Unit" can fight "Avatar".

Chen Fei smiled and comforted her, "It's good that you are mentally prepared, don't be too disappointed, Walton Pictures will help you work hard to run the Oscars." ”

Hearing this, Leonardo on the side suddenly couldn't sit still, and came over with great interest!

"Fei, can you help me run the Oscars? No matter how much it costs, I'm willing, as long as it can help me get that little golden man back! ”

"You're still dreaming, you want to be accepted by the academy... You still have to work hard! ”

A basin of cold water was poured directly on Leonardo's head, pouring him cold to the heart.

"Alas! Oh my little golden man! ”

Leonardo's wail sounded in the car, and everyone couldn't help it anymore, and directly burst into laughter!

…

This year's Golden Globe Awards are still quite lively, with top commercial blockbusters such as "Inception" and "Avatar", as well as excellent feature films such as "Bomb Disposal Unit", "Inglourious Basterds" and "In the Clouds", so that the attention of the outside world is extremely high.

When Chen Fei led the members of the "Inception" crew on the red carpet, the cheers on both sides were enthusiastic, and they couldn't wait to overturn the scene!

"Director Chen, come on!" Reporters from China cheered Chen Fei on the sidelines.

"Haha, okay, I'll try to live up to your expectations."

Chen Fei greeted everyone with a smile, and then walked into the Hilton Hotel.

After the host took the stage to speak as usual, the award ceremony officially began.

The awarding of various awards is actually very different from what Chen Fei predicted in his heart before.

Best Screenplay "In the Clouds", Best Animated Film "Flying House", Best Musical/Comedy "The Hangover......

And the most eye-catching ones are naturally "Best Director" and "Best Feature Film"!

As expected, Catherine Bigelow, who had swept through all the crushing prizes before, suddenly unleashed a dud, which was even more than an accidental explosion of a weapon of destruction......

After all, the Best Director Award was won by "Ex-Husband Brother Truck Driver James Cameron".

Although Cameron tried his best to hide the ecstasy in his heart when he received the award, the meticulous "comma bangs" on his head still expressed his inner excitement and excitement!

As for the best feature film, there is not much suspense.

"Congratulations, Fei, Inception deserves its ......"

With warm applause, Chen Fei got up and walked to the podium and took over the Golden Ball trophy, which means "glory".

He gripped the base of the trophy and flicked his wrist again, familiarizing himself with the cold touch he hadn't felt for a long time.

Tomorrow, I have to be invited by the Film Bureau to go back to give lessons to those commercial film directors in the mainland.

When the time comes, if anyone disobeys, they will be smashed on the head with this trophy!

Thinking of this, Chen Fei suddenly smiled.

I don't know if Wu Yu and Brother Chen Kai will go, or if you try their brains first, it should be very good!
