It's reasonable for me, a stuntman, to live a crazy life, right?

Whether it was before or after his rebirth, this was the first time that Chen Fei came to the province of Gansu.

The filming location of "A World Without Thieves" is located in GN State, northwest China and the southwest end of GS Province.

This was once the main travel area of ​​the Silk Road "Henan Road". It was a place where many cultures met and exchanged, and its geographical location is quite advantageous.

It's a pity that there are many storms all year round, and the sand and gravel are everywhere, making development extremely difficult!

Riding a Toyota off-road vehicle, Chen Fei looked at the desolate land around him and couldn't help feeling a little emotional.

"Fortunately, the shooting time is not long. If you live here all the time, you will be tanned in a short time!"

The driver was a stage manager from the crew, whose full name was Wang Jiaoquan.

At this time, listening to Chen Fei's sigh, he held up the straw hat on his head and echoed, "Who says it's not the case? Fortunately, the filming time was only one week at most, otherwise I really wouldn't be able to bear it anymore."

The temperature difference between day and night is large, sand and rocks are flying from time to time, transportation is inconvenient, and communication with locals is also extremely difficult...

Due to these various reasons, filming was extremely difficult for the crew.

But it must be mentioned that there is another kind of beauty hidden in this desolation!

Especially that kind of vast and boundless sight, it even relieved Chen Fei's slightly depressed mood.

Unfortunately, the good mood did not last long.

"Jingle Bell……"

The slightly harsh ringtone of the phone broke the tranquility in the car. Chen Fei picked up the phone and took a look, only to see the name "Ning Hao" appear on the screen.

"Hello?"

"Chen Fei, Lu Chuan's little piece of shit is sitting on your Yin and Yang."

Um?

As Ning Hao spoke on the phone, the expression on Chen Fei's face gradually turned cold, and a chill appeared in his eyes.

Yesterday, Lu Chuan made a big mistake at the press conference!

Not only did he ridicule Chen Fei for talking nonsense and not knowing how to respect his teachers, he even retold some rumors from the recording period of "Crazy Stone".

During this period, he "emphatically" and "obscurely" mentioned the relationship between Chen Fei and Brother Chen Kai.

The reporters inevitably "misunderstood" again.

Through Lu Chuan's connotation, reporters quickly heard something else in his words.

The reason why Chen Fei can achieve such outstanding results is ultimately because he has a good "dad".

With Brother Chen Kai supporting him and personally building bridges and paving the way for him, wouldn't it be easy to get the 150 million?

He even "cryptically" suggested that the two scripts "Buried Alive" and "Crazy Stone" were most likely written by Chen Kaige in order to help the "illegitimate child" become famous.

Otherwise, how could a sophomore performance student from Nortel get such a result?

After hearing these words, Chen Fei couldn't help but rant: "Don't tell me what you're doing. This grandson's reason is quite reasonable. I almost believed it myself."

On the other end of the phone, Ning Hao looked stunned, and suddenly lowered his voice and asked softly: "So, do you really have nothing to do with Director Chen Kai?"

"Good guy, do you even believe his lies?"

Chen Fei sighed helplessly: "Hey, why don't you think about it carefully? Brother Chen Kai hasn't even entered the 100 million yuan box office club so far. How can he help me?"

"That's true..."

Ning Hao finally came back to his senses.

But then, he asked again: "Then what are you going to do? There is already all black stuff about you on the Internet."

Just open your mouth to spread rumors, and you will lose your legs to clarify!

At this moment, Chen Fei finally understood the feelings of those celebrities who were entangled in dirty information.

Frustrated, depressed, angry...

"Let's wait until I get back. It seems that the grandson Lu Chuan is not ready to give in, so let him wait!"

After hanging up the phone, Chen Fei began to think about how to deal with it.

To deal with someone like Rikutaro, you have to find a way to beat him to death with a stick, otherwise you will get bitten back sooner or later.

After thinking for a while, Chen Fei called Han Sanping.

"Mr. Han, when is the release date of "Kekexili"?"

After waiting for a while, Han Sanping's response came on the phone: "October 1st, National Day."

"What other movies were released at the same time?"

"Only this one."

"Okay, thank you very much."

After hanging up the phone, Chen Fei fell into deep thought again.

In this era, there is no such thing as a National Day schedule. Riku Taro is very lucky to have occupied such a good schedule alone.

"Oh, since you want to be tough, don't blame labor and management for being rude!"

Chen Fei already had a plan in mind.

He is going to compete with "Kekexili" at the box office!

According to internal rumors at Nortel, Lu Tailang received 3 million from the school, and then Huayi supported him with 4.3 million.

In other words, the total investment in this film is at least 7.3 million.

"Oh, labor and management make it impossible for you to even get your capital back!"

It's only the beginning of June, and there are still four months before the National Day, enough time for him to make a movie.

"That's it! He did it! Kick Rikutaro hard in the crotch!"

…

After riding in the car for more than two hours, we finally arrived at the filming location of "A World Without Thieves".

Labrang Monastery!

Before he could open the door and get out of the car, Chen Fei saw many people coming to greet him.

It was Feng Xiaogang who was walking in front.

Although Feng Pengtong's image is not very good, his "leader"-like temperament is nothing to say. Even if he is followed by a bunch of famous movie stars, he is still suppressed by him!

"Director Chen is here. It would be a sin to miss the welcome from afar."

Upon hearing this, Chen Fei immediately closed the opened car door tightly.

Rolling down the window, he looked at Feng Xiaogang with a depressed look on his face, "Director Feng, if you are going to be so polite to me, then I won't go down today. You have to take the Badi Bridge to greet me."

"Hahaha!"

Feng Xiaogang laughed and stretched out his hand to pull him.

Seeing this, Chen Fei leaned back, kicked his feet violently, and rushed to the back seat in the blink of an eye.

"boom!"

By the time everyone reacted, he had already rolled out of the rear window and stood firmly on the ground.

"Good skills!" Feng Xiaogang immediately gave a thumbs up.

All the actors in the crew had already gathered around and came forward to say hello.

"Director Chen, I am Li Bingbin. It is an honor to meet you."

"Hello, when I was taking acting class last year, the teacher showed the movie "Going Home for the New Year" starring you in class. The image of the policewoman in it was really great!"

"Hello, Director Chen, I am Liu Yanying."

"'Young Little Fish', 'April on Earth', 'Pink Lady', haha, these were all my favorite movies when I was in high school."

After briefly saying hello to the two female leads, Chen Fei turned his head and set his sights on Liu Dehua.

"Haha, Brother Hua, you just finished filming "House of Flying Daggers", how did you end up in "A World Without Thieves" in a blink of an eye? Which one are you going to follow when the time comes to promote it?"

"I'm going to divide myself in half, half for Director Feng and half for Director Zhang, hahaha!"

The two of them were joking with each other, and they were very familiar with each other. Many people around them looked envious.

Uncle Ge's forehead seemed to be getting bald, and when the sun shone, it was still a little dazzling.

After saying hello, Chen Fei turned his head and cast his eyes on Wang Baoqiang, smiled and joked: "How was it? Did you learn a lot from following Director Feng?"

"Yeah, I learned a lot of useful knowledge!"

Wang Baoqiang nodded hurriedly, talking seriously to Chen Fei about the useful acting skills he had learned during this period.

Chen Fei didn't interrupt him, just listened quietly.

Seeing this scene, everyone around had different expressions.

Originally, they were a little confused, how could a young actor like Wang Baoqiang with no background be chosen by Feng Xiaogang to play the role of "Shagen"?

But now it seems that in addition to the more suitable character image, there is also a relationship between Chen Fei and Chen Fei.

For a moment, the faces of the extras who originally looked down on Wang Baoqiang suddenly changed.

They obviously didn't expect that Wang Baoqiang would have such a trump card!

The new director of the Billion Dollar Box Office Club is a top-notch existence in the film and television industry. With such a giant Buddha looking after him, his future stardom will be absolutely as stable as Mount Tai!

After greetings, a group of people entered the shooting scene.

What is currently being filmed is the scene where Andy Lau steals a pilgrim's mobile phone in a temple.

Pulling Chen Fei to sit down behind the monitor, Feng Xiaogang directed the crew to enter the shooting state.

"Are you done with everything?"

With his eyes fixed on the monitor, Feng Xiaogang continued to chat with Chen Fei.

Chen Fei shook his head and said bluntly: "There is still a problem that has not been solved."

"oh?"

Feng Xiaogang raised his eyebrows and looked sideways at him: "Lu Chuan?"

"right."

"Ignore him. That guy's butt is very crooked. Thanks to his background, his tail is so high that it's almost sticking to the sky."

Feng Xiaogang personally visited the crew of "Crazy Stone", so he naturally knew Chen Fei's directorial ability.

It is no exaggeration to say that this boy's strength is only weaker than his own!

It was precisely because of this that he was very confused about Lu Chuan's behavior.

Where did you, a director of art films with a box office of only RMB 10 million, get the courage to satirize a major director of a first-line commercial film with a box office of over RMB 10 million?

He couldn't figure it out, but he was shocked!

This guy relies on his family connections to become lawless!

"Don't worry, I've already figured out how to deal with him. We are all adults and must be responsible for what we say!"

"Okay, if you need help, just call me."

After that, Feng Xiaogang took a copy of the script from the side and handed it to Chen Fei.

"You read the script and lines first. I'm going to let you make a cameo appearance as the wealthy businessman at the beginning of the movie."

Rich businessman?

After receiving the script, Chen Fei started to read the lines in it against the memory in his mind, as well as the characters, personalities, and image descriptions marked with red pen on the side.

The content is very simple. The wealthy businessman played by Chen Fei fell in love with the English teacher played by Liu Yanying and wanted to use force on her, but the scene was filmed by the male thief Wang Bo played by Liu Dehua.

Then, a man and a woman took advantage of the situation and performed a trick to extort a BMW belonging to a wealthy businessman.

This is really a cameo. Although this plot is used in the opening of the film, it only lasts five minutes.

However, the more he looked at this paragraph of content, the more active Fade's mind became.

After Feng Xiaogang finished filming the current scene, he finally found an opportunity, leaned over and whispered:

"Director Feng, I suddenly had an idea. We can change this scene!"

Um?

Change the play?

Feng Xiaogang frowned slightly.

As a director and screenwriter, he is very taboo about anyone telling him how to shoot.

Even the two bosses, Mr. Wang, never interfered with him in terms of filming and hiring, and allowed him to perform on his own.

But Chen Fei just came to the set today, and he actually wants to change his play?

Although he was a little dissatisfied, Feng Xiaogang still endured.

After all, the person sitting in front of him is a new director in the billion-dollar box office club, and he is also a very good screenwriter, so he will probably have better suggestions.

Immediately afterwards, I heard Chen Fei say: "I think it would be good to replace this "rich businessman" with "director", just so I can play my true self.

As for these lines, we can also change them. For example, I have to learn English. Otherwise, what will I say when I get on the podium of the Berlin Golden Bear Award?

Today's juniors are too impetuous. They are talking about 120 million yuan, but they don't have any depth. Literary films are the real essence of movies.

I have no money, I don’t have a dime in my pocket, I lost all my money making the movie!

Who doesn’t have a good dad anymore? Did you see the car at the door? My dad bought it for me!

What? This video cannot be released, otherwise my glorious image in the hearts of movie fans will be ruined! "

Chen Fei was talking nonchalantly, while Feng Xiaogang's eyes gradually bloomed with dazzling light.

Although these lines are full of irony and are aimed directly at Lu Chuan, so what?

He's not afraid of that guy!

Feng Xiaogang immediately made the decision: "Okay, that's it. I don't think the director's name should be changed. How about just calling him Chen Fei?"

Chen Fei tentatively said: "I think it would be better to call him Lu Chuan."

Feng Xiaogang shook his head: "The sarcasm of naming someone by name is a little too much. After all, we both work with Huayi. We can't meet each other without raising our heads. It's better not to call us by our full names. Just call us Director Lu."

"Does it make any difference?"

"It can prevent us both from sitting in the dock, and we can also publicly shout to the media reporters that the protest is ineffective."

"Hahahahaha!"

Behind the monitor, the two looked at each other and burst into laughter.

In a few words, the beginning of the film has been changed beyond recognition, but Feng Xiaogang's face did not show any dissatisfaction.

It is no exaggeration to say that this title alone is worth at least 10 million at the box office!

At this moment, Chen Fei suddenly thought of something and said with a smile: "Director Feng, how about we make a bet?"

bet?

Feng Xiaogang was a little confused, "What are you betting on?"

"Bet on the box office!"

"How to bet?"

"I bet that the box office of "A World Without Thieves" will be at least 130 million. If it does, how about you making an unpaid guest appearance in my next movie?"

"Okay! No problem! I'll bet!"

There seemed to be light shining in Feng Xiaogang's eyes.

He is quite confident in "A World Without Thieves". At the very least, it will definitely not lose money, but it is hard to say whether it can break 100 million.

But today, Chen Fei suddenly said that his movie can exceed 100 million!

These words come from the mouth of a billionaire box office director, and they are absolutely guaranteed.

Therefore, even though he knew in his heart that Chen Fei was trying to take advantage of him, Feng Xiaogang was still willing to do so!
