In the face of the Venice Film Festival, Chen Fei has always adhered to a normal heart.

has already won the Golden Bear and the Palme d'Or, and he will certainly not let go of the Golden Lion, but the premise is that there must be a suitable script.

Luckily, there's also a "Hunting" in the script library!

"So... That's you! ”

The Venice Film Festival is usually held around September, and the time for the film to be submitted for review is around June, which is just in time for Chen Fei's shooting.

～

The filming of "Heart Flower Road" continues, and Guli Naza's little sister's appearance of killing Matt is about to be ready to appear.

"The little girl is very beautiful, she has a nose and eyes, she is so delicate......" The makeup artist muttered to her as she applied her makeup.

Gulnaza: "??? ”

Shouldn't normal people all have noses and eyes?

The speed of the Film Bureau this time is quite fast, and not long after the meeting, various policies favorable to the film and television industry began to be gradually put in place.

Xu Ke called Chen Fei and informed him that "Di Renjie's Tongtian Empire" was completed, and at the same time, he also told him one more thing.

"Star girl, you know, right? It's that Huang Shengyi in your mainland, there seems to be a financier behind her, and he specially set up a film and television company for her, and set up a "Legend of the White Snake", wanting me to direct ......"

The financier?

Chen Fei was stunned for a moment, and Yang Zi's "old face" suddenly appeared in his mind.

"Yo? Is this finally a success? It's a pity that I followed a second-married man. He whispered to himself in his heart, followed by a casual question, "What's next for you?" ”

"No, I didn't have the time to play house games with the rich second generation."

Xu Ke said bluntly: "I have to get the later stage of "Di Renjie's Heavenly Empire" first, and then there is Bona's "Dragon Gate Flying Armor", Yu Dong is very generous and agrees with me to shoot the 3D version, haha, this time I have to support you with digital attention." ”

"Okay, you can contact that side directly when the time comes, or I'll say hello in advance."

"Okay, then it's decided, we have time to meet and talk."

Men are not as abrasive as women, and in a few words, the two of them will handle the follow-up cooperation properly.

The advantages of Dianjing Digital are obvious, not only the equipment is the top at the moment, but the talents and technologies are also imported from Hollywood, and the key quotation is cheaper than abroad......

Under the combination of many parties, many film and television companies in the mainland have sent orders, and it is not far from the break-even estimate.

There were even several groups of people from the Film Bureau who took a special look at the new equipment and the production process of special effects.

Su Guohai called over and said vividly, "When those leaders left, they were all sighing, mainland movies still have a long way to go from Hollywood movies!" ”

"Hehe, they have a pretty clear understanding of themselves."

Approaching the Oscars, Chen Fei is already arranging work for Huang Bo.

He had to take a few days off, and Huang Bo had to take over the follow-up shooting.

"Don't bully other little girls, don't take advantage of other little girls, be careful to enter the game!"

"What do you say? Am I that kind of person? Huang Bo argued with reason, and his face turned red.

Gul Naza, who was already dressed as Kill Matt next to her, covered her mouth and giggled, she was still very nervous, but she didn't expect the director and assistant director to be so good at talking, so she was not nervous immediately.

……

On the 5th, Chen Fei packed his personal belongings early in the morning and prepared to rush to the airport.

He thought that today was just a very ordinary and ordinary day, but what he didn't expect was that a piece of news suddenly appeared on Sina.com and directly dominated the headlines!

""Avatar", the mainland box office exceeded 1 billion yuan!"

Zhibi, the second 1 billion box office movie in the domestic film market was born.

Because the previous "Inception" has refreshed this achievement, it is actually normal for "Avatar" to break 1 billion for outsiders, and there is nothing to pay attention to.

But the circle doesn't think so!

Han Sanping called her directly, "The basic plate of the mainland film market can already accommodate movies with a box office of 1 billion, does this mean that domestic sci-fi films can also enter the market?" ”

Chen Fei was puzzled, "What kind of sci-fi film are you talking about?" Similar to Cyborg? ”

"Of course not, I'm referring to the Iron Man genre."

"Come on, unless this kind of movie is released globally, if you only rely on domestic production, you will definitely have to lose your pants."

"Well, okay." Han Sanping sighed a little helplessly, and added: "The bureau called me over for a meeting yesterday, probably meaning that they want the box office records of Chinese films to rise, don't be too far behind......"

So far, the box office record of domestic films is still 637 million yuan for "Mulan".

This is also the only domestic film that has entered the box office list of 600 million!

Chen Fei pursed his lips, "Then don't you give them a Chinese film with a box office of 1 billion?" ”

"Do you have faith?"

"We'll see!"

After hanging up the phone, Chen Fei touched his chin, feeling inexplicably excited.

The arrival of Hollywood blockbusters is extremely fatal to domestic films, but it is also extremely helpful for the development of mainland cinemas.

As long as there are a few more blockbusters, it will inevitably stimulate the development of mainland cinemas!

When the time comes, there will be more and more movie theaters, and the number of films will be higher and higher, and the box office will naturally rise.

"This is called a virtuous circle, although it will also lead to the loss of many domestic films, but who makes them shoot badly? Don't take out a bad movie to be embarrassed, you deserve to lose money! ”

At this moment, many "typicals" suddenly popped up in Chen Fei's mind.

"Red Cliff", "Nanjing! Nanking! ", "Wuji", "Three Guns Shooting Surprise", "Night Banquet", ......

Sure enough, every director has a few stains that can never be washed off!

……

landed in Los Angeles, Chen Fei first paid attention to the box office situation of "Kung Fu Panda 2".

"270 million US dollars, it can definitely break 300 million before the next release." Natasha reported with great interest.

"What about Avatar? How many now? ”

"It's $750 million in North America and $2.4 billion at the global box office."

Speaking of this, Natasha was still faintly lost, she originally thought that "Inception" could firmly occupy the first throne in global film history, but she didn't expect to be retaken by Cameron so quickly.

I have to say that the "truck driver" not only drives the truck well, but also makes movies at a bad level!

A week ago, the North American box office of "Avatar" had just surpassed that of "Inception", and Chen Fei also deliberately posted the drawn celebration poster on Twitter to celebrate.

Unexpectedly, it has only been a week, and "Avatar" has already had a trend of riding the dust.

The old American truck driver is really good enough!

After getting the news he wanted, he was ready to prepare a dress for the Oscar the day after tomorrow.

But I never expected that an explosive news suddenly spread in China!

"Zhang Yimou's "Three Shots Surprise" was shortlisted for the Golden Bear Award at the Berlin International Film Festival.

“WTF？？？”

When he heard Ning Hao's voice on the other end of the phone, Chen Fei even had a feeling that he was not dreaming.

If a film of the quality of Three Guns can also be shortlisted for Berlin, then his "Heart Flower Road" can win the Golden Bear Award safely!

"I don't understand, I really don't understand, there is a lot of scolding on the Internet, all mocking the Berlin Film Festival for collecting black money."

"Hey, don't worry about them, it's okay with us anyway."

Chen Fei shrugged his shoulders indifferently, and after being shocked, he also figured it out, anyway, he was not going to participate in this year's Berlin Film Festival, and it had nothing to do with him confiscating the black money.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that just when he ended the call with Ning Hao, the phone of the Berlin organizer suddenly appeared on his caller ID page.

“Hello？”

Chen Fei frowned slightly and pressed the connect button.

Ten minutes later, he hung up the phone, and a flash of clarity flashed in his eyes!

"Berlin's 60th anniversary? Hey, no wonder, Lao Mouzi's energy is not small......"

On the phone just now, the organizers of the Berlin Film Festival specially invited him to attend the 60th anniversary celebration of the Berlin Film Festival, and hoped that he would be able to appear as an award presenter.

Obviously, this year's Berlin Film Festival is ready to make a big wave!

It's a pity that Chen Fei didn't have time to go, so he could only choose to refuse.

Here Zhang Yimou began to stir up the storm on the Internet, and over there Chen Kaige was not to be outdone, and at the same time as filming "Zhao's Orphan", he even announced a film plan.

"The copyright of the island fantasy "Shamen Konghai: Tang Ghost Banquet" has been put in place, and the adaptation process will be officially launched......"

Perhaps because of the money spent, there were frequent praises on the Internet, and the media deliberately used the word "model worker" to describe his hard work.

It's a pity that netizens don't buy it.

"So, this is the start of "Boundless 2", right?"

"Hahaha, Brother Chen Kai is filming a film and losing one, focusing on a thunder and rain."

"Don't talk about Director Chen like that, in fact, he still paid a lot, such as "Wuji", which contributed a lot of jokes to us."

"Poof, hahaha!"

……

There are constant hot news in the mainland, but compared with this Oscar event in Hollywood, it is still a little worse.

To Chen Fei's surprise, at this stage of the awards, the popularity of "Avatar" and "Inception" was not as high as "Bomb Disposal Unit"!

This can be seen from the red carpet ceremony.

When Catherine and the group of "Bomb Disposal Unit" stepped on the red carpet, there were suddenly tsunami-like cheers on both sides, and the scene simply responded to Song Jiji's words.

Crowds of people, gongs and drums, firecrackers in unison......

"She's so popular?" Chen Fei looked at Leonardo with some puzzlement.

Xiao Lizi didn't speak yet, but Monica on the side took the lead and said: "To be precise, it should be that the popularity of feminist forces is too high." ”

Hearing this, Chen Fei suddenly realized!

Indeed, in the history of the Oscars, there has never been a female director who has won the Oscars for Best Picture and Best Director, and there are only three or four nominations.

But this year is different, Catherine and "Bomb Disposal Unit" are not only box office successes, but also soft wins to various awards, maybe they will successfully win the Oscars!

"I'm quite optimistic about director Catherine." Monica took the initiative to add.

"Hopefully she can succeed." Chen Fei also echoed with a smile.

If Catherine can successfully win the Oscar, it will definitely have a huge boost effect on the company's stock price, and may even affect the box office of "Rise of the Planet of the Apes 2: Dawn of War" and "Superbody".

Oscar for Best Female Director's top commercial 3D sci-fi blockbuster, are you watching...... Or do you want to see it?

"Let's go, it's time for us to play."

Chen Fei noticed that there were already staff members waving to them, and when he led Xiao Lizi, Fat Wen, and Monica forward.

In addition to a large number of foreign journalists on both sides of the red carpet, there are also many media from China.

Regarding everyone's requests for interviews and photos, Chen Fei did not refuse, but posed with a smile.

"Director Chen, are you confident of winning the award?"

"I don't know, I hope I can win the prize, haha......"

In fact, his task today is quite heavy, in addition to attending the Oscars, he has to go to the Avenue of Stars to leave his handprints.

However, the two links do not overlap, and we will talk about it after participating in the Oscars first.

Chen Fei successfully entered the market, and the press release from the media was delivered to the mainland almost instantly.

"The 82nd Academy Awards ceremony officially began, and on the red carpet, director Chen Fei was interviewed by internal entertainment, confident and high-spirited!"

"I wish Director Chen Fei to win the award and create more brilliance!"

"The first Chinese director, if he really lives up to his name......"

According to Chen Fei's current fame and status, after entering, as expected, he was directly led to the first row by the staff, enjoying VIP treatment!

Leonardo on the left and Cameron on the right......

When the live broadcast of the movie channel was turned on, looking at Chen Fei's position, the envious eyes of a group of young directors in internal entertainment were red!

"Good fellow, where am I going to sit?"

"You ???" Li Yang glanced at Guo Fan and shook his head slowly, "Don't think about it, this dream is not suitable for us." ”

Different from their envy, Wu Yu on the other side pursed his lips, very disdainful, "Hmph, what's the big deal, isn't it just sitting in the first row?" What is this? Have you ever made your mark on the Walk of Fame? Do you have a directing star? You don't have any, hahaha! ”

I just don't know why, while laughing, he always feels that his saliva is a little uncontrollable.

"It must be because of the age......

In terms of self-hypnosis, Wu Yu has always been very good at it.

……

The award ceremony began shortly.

Best Documentary Feature, Best Documentary Short Film, Best Animated Short Film, Best Live Action Short Film, Best Original Song, Best Original Score......

Many awards have nothing to do with Inception, and they are not the focus of its pursuit.

The best visual effects is a key project, but it's a pity that it was taken away by "Avatar", but it deserves it.

The subsequent awards for Best Sound Effects, Best Sound Editing, and Best Original Script were all won by "Bomb Disposal Unit", which triggered the first small climax of the audience!

Catherine sat in the second row behind Chen Fei, she was very excited at this time, her eyes were eager, as if she had seen the picture when she won the grand prize.

"Best Editing at the 82nd Academy Awards - Inception!"

The guest of honor was Quentin, and after handing out the trophy, he couldn't help but complain a few words in his heart, "What is the situation with the Oscar organizers?" Why do others keep winning awards, and I don't get anything? I pray that God will punish you ......"

Sadly, God apparently did not favor him.

The next Best Cinematography Award was awarded to "Avatar" by the organizer, and the IMAX-3D camera developed by Lao Ka is really too good to be worth this award!

followed by the best actor.

Chen Fei silently walked onto the podium, and the organizer had told him in advance that he would present the award.

A total of five people were nominated, namely: Leonardo, Jeff Bridges, George Clooney, Morgan Freeman, and Jeremy Renner.

In the audience, Xiao Lizi's eyes were full of anticipation, he had been hungry for this little golden man for too long, too long, too long!

It's a pity that what came out of Chen Fei's mouth finally was, "Congratulations, Jeff Bridges "Crazy Heart". ”

Little Lizi: "......"

"Thank you, Fei, I'm so honored!"

"Haha, you deserve it."

Chen Fei and he are quite familiar with him, when filming "Iron Man" in 07, Jeff Bridges played a villain in it, and even nominated for the Saturn Award for Best Supporting Actor, but he couldn't win the award.

After three years, he has now won the Oscar for Best Actor, and he will soar in the future!

The follow-up Best Actress was awarded by Cameron, and the final winner was Sandra Bullock, an actress who is nearly 50 years old, and came directly to the scene with a wave of tears!

Fat Wen was a little disappointed, but she was not as disappointed as Xiao Lizi, after all, she won the Oscar for Best Actress.

Now for the final two prizes!

Best Director, Best Picture!

Natasha has spent tens of millions of dollars on marketing and public relations, coupled with the support of outside fans and feminist forces, the final result is not unexpected.

"Bomb Disposal Unit" won two awards in a row, Best Director and Best Picture, and Catherine successfully killed her ex-husband Cameron!

Watching his ex-wife come to the stage to accept the award, Lao Ka gave applause with a smile and no dissatisfaction.

After all, the Oscars are still the award-winning mecca for feature films, and for commercial films like "Avatar" and "Inception", this is not a place they can mix up at all.

The former won only two trophies, the latter only one......

Almost all the other awards were taken away by "Bomb Disposal Unit"!

Catherine and "Bomb Disposal Unit" producer Walton Pictures were the biggest winners tonight!

It's just that, to everyone's surprise, when Catherine came to the stage to deliver her acceptance speech, Chen Fei became the first object of her gratitude.

"Here, I would like to thank Fei for his support in investing in this film, for inspiring me, for discovering me, for supporting me to get to the Oscars......"

The camera came, and Chen Fei showed a faint smile on his face, but he was secretly wary of Cameron in his heart, preventing him from driving a truck to hit himself at night without thinking about it!

He felt that he needed to explain that he and Lao Ka's ex-wife definitely did not have any relationship outside of work, and the divorce between the two was definitely not caused by him......

～

With two successive trophies won by Catherine and Natasha, today's Oscars have officially come to an end.

It's just that what makes domestic audiences wonder is that the broadcast of the movie channel has not ended, but turned around and came to the Avenue of Stars.

"What's the situation? Is this to let us look at the stars on the Walk of Fame together? ”

Many viewers expressed their incomprehension.

At this time, only Wu Yu frowned slightly, and a terrible thought suddenly popped up in his heart.

"Wouldn't it? Is there someone who wants to leave a handprint on the Avenue of Fame? ”

He was guessing, and then he saw Chen Fei reappear in the broadcast screen.

At this moment, Wu Yu was not calm in an instant, his eyes were even more uncontrollably round, and his face was full of disbelief!

"He... He... What does he want to do? ”

The Walk of Fame is also a classic tourist attraction, and almost all tourists who come to Los Angeles will come to visit and take photos as a souvenir.

Although there is not much to see here, that long street seems to have engraved the entire history of cinema, and it is worshiped and worshiped by the world.

In fact, not only movies, but also those who can leave stars on the Walk of Fame include outstanding contributors in television, music, theater, radio and other fields.

And because Chen Fei is famous on the Avenue of Stars as a director, there is a very delicate "camera" pattern under his star.

The star presenters are the honorary mayor of Los Angeles and Spielberg, who currently dominates the overall box office championship in film history, and the identities of the two are just right.

And when Chen Fei engraved his handprints and footprints and signed his name in the pentagram, the scene suddenly burst into extremely warm applause!

At this point, the fifth Chinese to leave their name on the Hollywood Walk of Fame has finally appeared!

At this moment, the fans who are following this broadcast are already excited and can't help themselves!

"? Director Chen is really awesome! can actually leave his name on the Avenue of Stars, this row of noodles... It's absolutely stunning! ”

"I went to check it just now, and so far only Huang Liushuang, Li Xiaolong, Wu Yu, and Chen Long have left stars, and Director Chen is now the fifth, and he is only 26 years old!"

"Spielberg and the honorary mayor of Los Angeles personally awarded the star? Made, don't say it, the word envy has been rotten by me. ”

"Awesome! It's awesome! ”

"No. 1 among Chinese directors, Director Chen is synonymous with our Chinese directors who are developing abroad!"

There are constant heated discussions on the Internet, and the press release occupies the whole network almost in just a few minutes, and the hot search on Weibo is directly airborne to the top of the list......

At this time, Wu Yu looked at the broadcast screen, and his whole person was about to vomit blood.

TMD！

Obviously, he just laughed at him before, and he doesn't have a star on the Avenue of Stars, how can he be worthy of being a top international director?

I didn't expect the slap in the face to come so quickly!

God is not fair, why give him stars, the achievements he is proud of are about to be broken by him!

"Nope! No way! I can't sit still! ”

Wu Yu couldn't sit still, picked up his mobile phone from the table, and quickly found the contact information of the organizer of the Venice Film Festival.

He is still quite familiar with the Venice organizers, and if he works public relations, he is likely to win a glory award at this year's Venice Film Festival.

In this way, he can stabilize Chen Fei again!

……

(ps: the second shift, ask for a monthly pass!! )
