"What? 64 million? Is the mainland audience so cheering? ”

Listening to Han Sanping's notice on the phone, Chen Fei didn't react for a while!

The North American release time of "Kung Fu Panda 2" is January 30, and the mainland has continued for 2 days to February 1.

Chen Fei's original intention was to let this animated film rub into the final stage of the Lunar New Year file and eat a wave of benefits before and after Chinese New Year's Eve.

During this time period, most of the people who went out to work went home, and elementary school, high school, and college just happened to be on vacation, and the audience of "Kung Fu Panda 2" is these student parties, so the box office will inevitably have a bright performance.

But when the box office appeared on the first day, he found that he could no longer use the word "dazzling", it was completely "dazzling"!

An animated film actually broke the box office record on the first day during the Chinese New Year in the domestic film market?!

You must know that even the previously high-profile "Avatar" only had a first-day box office record of more than 40 million in the mainland!

"Inception" can't be mentioned, the box office on the first day directly exceeded 100 million, but because the release time is not a Chinese New Year file, it can't be compared.

"Quite unexpected!"

On the other end of the phone, Han Sanping was also a little dazed.

He has always admired live-action, special effects, and big productions, and he doesn't know much about the animated film sector, so he doesn't pay much attention to those animated films imported from abroad.

That is, the theme of "Kung Fu Panda" is relatively special, after all, it tells the story of "Panda National Treasure", so he gave a certain amount of attention and publicity.

But I never expected that this film would be so fierce!

64 million!

"According to this increase, breaking 500 million should be easy."

Han Sanping couldn't help but feel a little envious in her tone, if a domestic animated film created such an achievement, then the film industry could "celebrate together"!

Chen Fei laughed softly: "Haha, if you work hard, you should be able to break 600 million, fans have money in their hands before and after Chinese New Year's Eve, plus this is still a family movie, maybe there will be a bright performance." ”

"Okay, China Film will support it in terms of film scheduling."

"Thank you ......"

After ending the call, Chen Fei deliberately logged on to Douban and briefly looked at the domestic audience's evaluation of this animated film.

"It's lively enough, funny enough, it's very family-like, it's suitable for the whole family to watch together, I highly recommend it!"

"Generally speaking, without a pre-set script with a sequel, the second part is not well filmed, but "Kung Fu Panda 2" did not enter the spell, and Director Chen's screenwriter is very good!"

"As an animation student, I personally think that many of the plot design, action design and editing techniques in Kung Fu Panda 2 are worth watching and learning repeatedly, especially the part where Po practices Tai Chi and interweaves memories of the past, which is simply wonderful! There is also the combination of music and fighting in the opening part of the wolf pack entering the village to scavenge metal and the battle of the Five Heroes, which is not only ingenious but also full of jokes, this is definitely a well-designed and good animated movie! ”

"To say weakly, I like "Shen Wangye", the portrayal of this villain is simply amazing, the shape is very artistic, not at all intellectual, too handsome! ”

"The only pity is that this is a Hollywood animated film, when will Director Chen return to China and pull up our own animated film market in China?"

“……”

Looking at the many comments, Chen Fei's heart moved, and he called Su Guohai based on the time difference.

"Old Su? How are you preparing for the formation of the animation department? ”

"Almost."

The other end of the phone was a little noisy, Su Guohai apologized softly, and deliberately walked a few steps to a secluded place, before continuing: "I have already met the person in charge of the "Dumpling Keli Animation Studio", one is called Yang Yu and the other is Liu Wenxiang.

The division of labor between these two is quite clear, one is responsible for animation production, and the other is responsible for the work of the producer, including attracting investment, doing logistics and so on.

As you told me before, I directly recruited both of them, including the equipment of their studio, and have been sorting out the equipment recently......"

After listening to Su Guohai quietly, Chen Fei added, "After you go back, you talk to Yang Yu and ask him to send me an email in my mailbox, mark the equipment that needs to be used, and I will buy it from here."

Originally, those equipment that couldn't be used were sold.,It's a reason to do animation and special effects.,At least you have to configure the "tools" properly.。 ”

"Okay, I'll tell them when I get back."

Huayi was holding an annual meeting and invited many people in the industry, but Chen Fei couldn't go back, so Su Guohai had to go to participate in his place.

At this time, it happened to be the time of the annual meeting, so the other end of the phone would be very noisy.

Speaking of which, the two brothers of the Wang family are also interesting enough.

The bureau just finished a meeting last month and made it clear that it would vigorously develop the film industry, but Huayi came up with a trick to "go the other way".

"Based on the film and television industry, we will march into other peripheral industries and seek diversified development......"

The appearance of this sentence is very interesting, after all, as a leading private film and television company, the development of Huayi almost affects the entire industry.

Many people in the industry have fixed their eyes on the two brothers of the Wang family, and they are ready to wait to see how they engage in this "diversification"?

It's a pity that diversification hasn't waited for the time being, but the first thing to wait for is the news of "Zhou Xun's termination"!

Huayi's annual meeting invited many media and reporters, and someone found out that night, Huayi's first sister Zhou Xun did not appear at the annual meeting!

This situation is naturally very problematic, just like the company's sales crown did not appear at the company's annual summary meeting.

The next day, when various suspicions began to appear on the Internet, Wang Zhongjun held a media conference and directly announced the news of Zhou Xun's termination.

This is the first "Three Golden Queens" in the mainland, and Zhou Xun's termination of the contract must be something that Huayi does not want to see.

However, the wood is already in the boat, and she is not ready to renew the contract, so the two parties can only get together and disperse.

"For all kinds of suspicions and remarks on the Internet, I can make a positive response here, Huayi and Zhou Xun do not have any economic disputes and contradictions, if there is a suitable opportunity in the future, we will still cooperate again, here I wish Zhou Xun a bright star journey......

Wang Zhongjun's speech was quite bold, and it directly suppressed the disputes on the Internet.

However, Li Bingbin has a feeling of "turning over as a serf and singing", and officially announced that he had won the heroine role in the Hollywood movie "The Secret Fan in the Snow" that afternoon, and would partner Jun Ji-hyun to enter Hollywood......

At this point, the new first sister of Huayi is officially on the throne!

…

"My studio has been established, when will you come back? I'm in for a treat! Let's eat fragrant and drink spicy food in the future, make our own money and spend ......"

On the other end of the phone, Zhou Xun's tone was quite brisk, and he would be his own boss in the future, although the speed of making money may not be as fast as signing a contract with Huayi, but at least he was free enough!

She has already decided that she must have a good time going to the Maldives for New Year's Eve this year!

"Haha, congratulations." Chen Fei smiled, "Wait a few days, the Oscar nominations will be announced soon, I have to plan the follow-up awards, and then I can go back." ”

"Celebrating the New Year in China?"

"Yes, let's play mahjong together."

"Haha, okay, then I'll wait until Chinese New Year's Eve and then go to the Maldives, and when you come back, I'll shake people, and I'll celebrate the New Year at your house this year......"

After saying it with a big grin, Zhou Xun hung up the phone directly, and didn't even ask Chen Feifang if it was inconvenient.

"Hey, how does this look like a child?"

Chen Fei shook his head a little helplessly, his fingers tapped on the desktop, and his consciousness fell into the system interface.

It's the New Year soon, and the system suddenly came to join in the fun again, and actually released a new task!

[Challenge Mission: (Complete a downhill skiing in the Alps), the difficulty coefficient is 9 stars, and you can get an SS-level reward blind box by completing the task. 】

[The task is limited to 24 hours, and it can be completed within the specified time, and there is a certain chance to trigger the double blind box reward]

Alps, downhill skiing ......

Looking at these two keywords, Chen Fei let out a sigh of relief, and subconsciously muttered to himself: "It's another deadly challenge on the edge of life and death!" ”

Downhill skiing is a highly exciting extreme sport, both spectacle and technical, and is one of the best in the entire extreme sports ranks.

Even to some extent, even the "bicycle falling down the mountain" is a bit small compared to it!

The biggest reason why this sport is dangerous is its uncertainty.

Especially in places like the Alps, it's even more dangerous!

The title "Roof of Europe" is not for nothing, its main peaks are excellent skiing destinations, not even one, and many of the slopes are even more difficult!

Even so, during the ski season, there are still many extreme skiers from all over the world who visit the Alps for excitement and pleasure.

Although there will always be people who pay a heavy price for this, the vast majority of people still have no hesitation and will only experience the "coolness" of that moment!

And now, he is about to become one of those people who "have no hesitation".

"Whew!"

With a sigh of relief, Chen Fei called Flory.

"I'm going skiing in the Alps, get kitted."

"When?"

"TBD, you prepare your equipment first, and I'll let you know when the time is confirmed."

“Ok！”

After a simple conversation, Chen Fei took the initiative to cut off the call.

Everyone already has a tacit understanding, and they don't need to know too much, just do what they should do.

However, the Red Bull official was very excited, and when he heard that Chen Fei was going to prepare a new challenge mission, he specially called him to care about him, saying that he would make all the logistical preparations......

"What's the experience like with a private jet?"

"It's not bad, but the space is a little smaller, can you give me another one?"

Red Bull: "......"

"Hahaha, just kidding, don't forget this year's endorsement fee, it's all 2010, and I'm still waiting to use the money to buy New Year's goods."

Red Bull: "??? ”

Approaching Chinese New Year's Eve, under the attention of many Hollywood stars, the Oscar finally announced the list of nominees.

Chen Fei got a list as soon as possible.

Compared with the past, this year's Oscars are called "brilliant", and the number of nominees for Best Picture has soared directly to 10, far exceeding the previous five!

Among them, there are two shortlisted films on the side of Walton Pictures, namely "Inception" and "Bomb Disposal Unit".

This was followed by "Avatar" by Twentieth Century Fox and directed by Cameron, "Weakness" produced by Warner and directed by John Lee Hancock, "District 9" produced by Sony and directed by Neil Blomkamp, and "Inglourious Basterds" produced by Weinstein Pictures and co-directed by Quentin Tarantino and Eli Rose.

In addition, there are "Serious Men" directed by the Coen brothers, "Cherished" directed by Lee Daniels, and "In the Clouds" directed by Jason Reitman.

The most surprising thing is that Disney's "Flying House" was nominated for Best Picture and Best Animated Feature as an animated film, and it was obvious that a lot of public relations expenses were spent.

Unfortunately, due to the impact of the schedule and release time, "Kung Fu Panda 2" did not participate in this year's Oscar selection, but is preparing to compete for next year's Oscar.

Chen Fei devoted more attention to "Inception" and "Bomb Disposal Unit".

The former was nominated for nine nominations, namely: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Original Screenplay, Best Supporting Actor, Best Cinematography, Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Effects, Best Visual Effects, and Best Art Direction.

As can be seen from the awards nominated, Inception is purely a technical award.

The latter is dominated by artistic awards, although there are also nine nominations, but there is the best actor award.

Interestingly, "Avatar" also has nine nominations!

As soon as the list was announced, the media began to hype up the emotional entanglement of James Cameron and Kathryn Bigelow, the "former couple".

It is human nature to eat melons, especially this kind of entertainment melons, and the attention in the circle is called a high!

Even Bruce tentatively asked Catherine at the party if she would be interested in remarrying Cameron?

"I don't want to be in the passenger seat anymore." Catherine rejects the offer with a humorous reply.

After reading the list, there is nothing to do with Chen Fei on the Hollywood side, and he is going to return to China for the New Year.

Before leaving, he went to see the release, shooting and production of several films in the company.

The box office growth of "Kung Fu Panda 2" is very good, just continue to follow up and maintain the publicity efforts.

The release date of "Rise of the Planet of the Apes 2: Dawn of War" is set for March 26, which is still early, and the publicity plan can be steadily advanced.

The filming progress of Old Man Woody Allen is quite fast, "Twilight 4" is almost finished, and there is only some finishing work left.

He is ready to finish filming the fifth part in one go, and then directly announce his retirement!

Chen Fei promised to help him hold a grand finale banquet, which made the old man suddenly feel a sense of joy, which was full of energy.

DreamWorks has also made "How to Train Your Dragon", Chen Fei took the time to take a look at the finished film, the quality is very good, I believe that it will achieve a good result after the release!

In addition, the total box office data of those films released at the end of last year have also been aggregated.

The number of viewers of "Lone Agent" exceeded 7.5 million, and the box office was about 70 million US dollars......

The total global box office revenue of "Three Fools in Bollywood" can exceed 100 million US dollars, the yield is guaranteed, and then it is time to frantically brush up on the awards!

Many trophies were awarded to Chen Fei by the organizers of major awards, but he didn't have time to go, so he had to ask Rakumar Hillani to help collect them on his behalf.

This time he returned to China, although he couldn't be described by the word "returning to his hometown with wealth", Chen Fei's movement was still quite big!

No way, who let him get back a large number of "animation" and "special effects" production equipment.

Yang Yu was not polite at all, after learning that Chen Fei would buy equipment from abroad, he sent him several lists of equipment watches, each of which was the top in the world!

That is to say, Chen Fei is rich and rich, if this is an ordinary company, just buying equipment will have to buy bankruptcy!

Perhaps because the movement of the handling equipment was too large, it was directly noticed by the group of reporters who were squatting downstairs in the Feiyue Film and Television Building all the year round.

In the afternoon, the press release was posted online.

"Feiyue Film and Television has a new batch of equipment, which is suspected to be special effects production equipment......"

"Full English, foreign brand ......"

"Following the establishment of the special effects department, Feiyue Film and Television once again set up an animation department, and the equipment officially entered the market, and the spring of domestic animation is coming?"

For the Chinese New Year, this wave of press releases has attracted the attention of many people in the circle.

No, Wang Changtian was the first to come, and he still came to the slogan of "learning from experience".

"Mr. Chen? Do you say that there is still hope for the rise of our domestic animated films? ”

Lao Wang's heart was called a tangle during this time.

The big hit of "Kung Fu Panda 2" gave him hope, but the box office fiasco of "Astro Boy" made him feel that domestic animation has no future at all!

This wave of investment in the light has lost all its money, and Xiangjiang Yima Animation is even about to be tossed and bankrupt, he feels that domestic animated films are a big hole in his heart!

But Chen Fei's operation made him really depressed, he opened a new animation department and bought equipment, which is obviously a trend to do a lot of work!

But...... Where did he get his confidence?

Glancing at Wang Changtian's tangled expression, Chen Fei smiled, "There must be hope for the rise, but it's difficult, I just want to try, so I should learn the "diversification" development of Huayi." ”

"Tsk, it's still Mr. Chen's wealth!"

Wang Changtian sighed with emotion, and after briefly visiting the new batch of equipment from Feiyue Film and Television, he directly found an excuse to slip away.

Can't touch it!

No!

I don't dare to touch it at all!

This horse can no longer be described as burning money, this is completely a Pixiu who only enters and can't leave, swallowing it with a big golden lump!

As for when it will be pulled......

Who knows which horse?
