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

The new picture of Zhang Weiping has caused a lot of panic in the past two days!

Relying on Zhang Yimou's relationship, he has signed many artists. Although it is not as big as Huayi, Guangguang, and Chengtian, it can at least rank among the top five in the country.

Because he himself has a bit of a weird temper, some of his artists are influenced by him, and some have weird tempers.

When Chen Fei was filming "Partners in China", Zhang Weiping was very unhappy because he didn't bring new pictures to participate in the investment.

When facing some actors under the company, he even complained about Chen Fei's stinginess, and some people took this to heart.

Now that "Source Code" is about to start filming, Chen Fei has only sent audition invitations to some actors in the circle. This behavior has made some actors under New Picture very dissatisfied!

Why don't you send us an audition invitation?

The actors in other companies still maintained their senses. Even if they had some complaints in their hearts, they digested them silently in their hearts.

After all, they didn't dare to offend Chen Fei.

What's more, this is a movie invested by others, and they have the final say on who to use. What does it have to do with outsiders?

But an actor under New Picture, relying on Zhang Yimou's "backing", openly mocked Chen Fei for being "nepotistic" in an interview, and did not give other actors a chance to audition...

When word spread, it immediately caused a small-scale sensation!

Zhang Weiping didn't know it at first. It wasn't until Ren Zhonglun called him and praised his actors as "brave and straightforward" that he realized something was wrong.

When he logged onto the portal and took a look, he immediately panicked.

After paying some price, I finally got rid of those remarks...

After finally settling the comments online, Zhang Weiping became furious and called the actor who made the inappropriate comments over and gave him a severe scolding!

"This kind of thing is an unspoken rule in the industry. You can just talk about it in private. How dare you say this in front of reporters?

Have you not seen that all Huayi actors are used in Feng Xiaogang’s movies? Have you not seen that the movies directed by Zhang Yimou all use actors from our new scene?

Who doesn't practice nepotism? Why are you doing this? Do you no longer want to be in the industry?

Do you know who you have offended? That horse is Chen Fei! Someone who can thrive in Hollywood! Even I have to be polite when I meet him. How dare you say those things in front of reporters?

If people are happy to send you audition invitations, you can enjoy it secretly. If others are not happy to send you audition invitations, you can just hold it back. Why do you think you are trying to stand out? "

As soon as he said these words, the third-rate actor opposite him was shaken into a sieve!

"Zhang...Mr. Zhang, what should we do now?"

"What should I do?" Zhang Weiping gave him a cold look, "Bless yourself and change your job. You don't want to be in this industry anymore."

"Ah! Is it that serious?" The man was obviously frightened.

"It's quite easy to ride a horse! How many people want to curry favor with him but have no chance, yet you actually publicly insinuate him? Believe it or not, as long as you stay in this circle for one day, you will not have a stable life for one day!"

"Mr. Zhang, I..."

"Get out!!!"

Watching the actor leave in despair, Zhang Weiping took a few deep breaths, leaned back in his chair and began to think about countermeasures.

It was originally difficult for him to participate in Chen Fei's movies, and people in the industry were not very impressed with the new scenes. After this incident, it may be even harder for him to cooperate in the future.

After pondering for a while, he could only call Zhang Yimou.

"Hello? Yimou, let me tell you something..."

…

Just when Zhang Weiping was trying to remedy the situation, Chen Fei had already started filming "Source Code".

He didn't go out of his way to hold a very grand opening ceremony. He just invited some reporters and briefly informed about the start of filming.

The 63rd Film and Television Golden Globe Awards will be held on January 17, 2006. There has been news from Universal Pictures, telling him to rush to attend.

This was no small matter, he had to go.

Therefore, the filming of "Source Code" must be accelerated, because next year, he has to go to Hollywood to shoot "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" and participate in the production of "2012".

Time was so tight that he simply skipped the tedious steps and thought of finishing the filming quickly and then using the film for special effects.

The filming went very smoothly.

All the actors are from the three major media theaters, and the on-site scenery was completed in advance, so the filming progress was very fast.

"Director Chen, there's something wrong with a small detail. Your eyes dangled when you were hiding from the coffee just now. We need to retake a shot here."

Behind the monitor, Ning Hao, who acted as the deputy director, gave a reminder.

"Ok, let's do it again."

Because the protagonist can only go back to the eight minutes before the explosion each time, all performances need to be repeated within these eight minutes, which is undoubtedly a very big test for the actors.

Some actions and details had to be exactly the same as in previous performances, which was almost never done in their previous filming.

At the same time, when they actually participated in the filming of the movie, everyone also had a new understanding of Chen Fei's screenwriting ability!

"Source Code" experimental project, repeated "travel" to the eight minutes before the explosion, all plots repeated over and over again...

These ideas are simply amazing!

"How on earth did he come up with such a plot? How many fanciful scenes does this person have in his mind?"

This is a question that often arises in the minds of all actors when filming.

…

When receiving the call from Zhang Yimou, Chen Fei was sitting behind the monitor watching the replay.

"Hello? Director Chen? Are you busy?"

"Tell me, is something wrong?"

""A Thousand Miles Ride Alone" will be released on December 22. Do you have time to attend the premiere?"

"Yes, I will definitely go when the time comes."

"good."

After less than ten words of conversation, the call was hung up.

Based on the relationship between the two of them, there is actually no need to say too much. Everyone knows what it means, and Chen Fei will definitely not be stingy when it comes to saving face.

…

Mother Liu plays the role of a passenger carrying coffee. She needs to repeat the action of "spill the coffee" over and over again.

I have to say that actors who have acted in dramas are awesome and very stable in front of the camera!

In fact, Liu Xiaoli didn't want to appear in the show at first. She just came here with Liu Yifei, but she couldn't resist Chen Fei's constant invitations, so she had no choice but to nod in agreement.

"Great, Auntie, this is passed."

Behind the monitor, Chen Fei raised his hands and patted them, while praising the picture just now for being perfect.

Everyone around them applauded, and Liu Yifei even shouted exaggeratedly: "Mom is so amazing. She repeated it so many times without making any mistakes."

"Thank you, thank you everyone..."

Liu Xiaoli humbly thanked everyone for their encouragement, and she couldn't help but feel a little complacent in her heart.

The feeling of filming... is so good!

…

After the filming ended in the evening, a group of people gathered around the hotel to watch the premiere of "Harry Potter 4".

One hundred fans wearing Harry Potter gear, one thousand white candles, one thousand five hundred dominoes, a simulated spellcasting scene...

Looking at these scenes, Zhu Yawen sighed with emotion: "Look at this scene, when can we have a premiere of this scale?"

"It won't take long."

"Um?"

In the room, a group of people looked at Chen Fei curiously, wondering what he meant by what he just said.

Tianxian is a very smart person. He blinked his big eyes and asked curiously: "Chen Fei? Are you planning to make some big move again?"

"Keep it secret for now, you will know later."

Chen Fei smiled, and the animated movie "Kung Fu Panda" suddenly appeared in his mind.

When he thought about what this movie would look like when it was released in China, he felt inexplicably excited!

If our national treasure is made into a movie, it will definitely cause a huge sensation in the country!

The second half of November is destined to be strongly occupied by "Harry Potter", and even the promotion of other movies has been suppressed a lot.

At the same time, in order to prevent piracy from affecting the movie box office, Chen Kaige contacted many people, together with companies such as China Film and Television, to form an "anti-piracy alliance."

Many people in the circle responded.

In this regard, Chen Fei also expressed his attitude.

Strictly preventing piracy is everyone’s responsibility!

On the matter of preventing piracy, he has always been a representative of "taking the lead", and he quite agrees with Brother Chen Kai on this point.

…

November passed by in a hurry, and time soon came to December.

One-third of the filming of "Source Code" has been completed. Chen Fei handed over some less important content to Ning Hao for filming while he himself returned to the capital.

December is the "Lunar New Year period" in China, and Feng Xiaogang led the popularity of this term.

However, Feng Xiaogang did not participate in the Lunar New Year stalls this year. Instead, others started the crazy "killing"!

Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Liu Zhenwei, Chen Kexin, Ning Hao (Chen Fei).

In terms of his status in the circle, Ning Hao is not worthy of being compared with the first four.

But in everyone's eyes, Ning Hao is equal to Chen Fei!

Five great directors, six films, who can take the top spot on the box office list this year?

"If Love", "Chinese Partner", "The Promise", "The Great Sage of Love", "Riding Alone for Thousands of Miles", "People on an Unfortunate Road"...

The killing officially begins!

On December 1st, "If Love" was the first to be released in major domestic theaters.

There are only eight days left for Chen Kexin, because "China Partner" will officially air on December 9.

Chen Fei specially went to the theater to watch this movie.

Jin Chengwu, Zhou Xun, Zhang Xueyou...

A poor student who was crushed by his dreams, a working girl who was struggling for life, and a well-known director, the three of them worked together to perform a song and dance romance film.

The King of Heaven is awesome, not only does he sing well, but his acting skills are also incredible.

Just watching Zhang Xueyou's performance, Chen Fei couldn't help but think of his lines in "Carmen Mongkok" in his mind.

"What's the use of wearing a suit and tie and having a big brother phone? With such a big boss? You're going to eat shit!"

Until I walked out of the cinema, this line was like a demon, lingering in my mind.

The overall plot is quite good, but it is obviously not a commercial film. The first-day box office announced the next day was only 6 million.

In other words, the cast is relatively strong, otherwise the box office might be even lower!

Chen Fei saw the report on the portal that Chen Kexin led the actors to promote, and Zhang Xueyou sang live, which aroused the enthusiastic support of many fans.

The promotion of "China Partner" has also begun, with Huang Xiaoming, Deng Chao, Dong Dawei, Zhu Zhu, Wang Luodan and others frequently appearing on major programs for promotion.

And several producers are fully cooperating, and the popularity it has caused is extremely hot.

Because this movie will be released simultaneously in the Mainland and Hong Kong, Emperor is also cooperating, and Media Asia and Golden Harvest are fully assisting.

As for Yongsheng Film Company, there was no movement at all, as if they were completely mute.

They can't stop it, and they don't dare to stop it at all!

…

On the morning of the 2nd, the young lady at the front desk of Feiyue Film and Television was surprised to find that her boss was back!

Just as she was about to raise her hand to say hello, she saw that Han Sanping from China Film Group and Ren Zhonglun from Shanghai Film Group were also following behind them. The three of them walked quickly and disappeared from the front desk in the blink of an eye.

"What's going on? Do you have plans for a new movie?"

The young lady blinked her eyes, a little curious appearing in her heart.

After Han Sanping and Ren Zhonglun came last time, the "Chinese Partner" project appeared immediately, directly plowing the mainland film industry.

And today they are here again!

The first thought in the young lady's mind is...

“The boss is so awesome!”

…

When he walked into the office, Chen Fei didn't make any fuss with them and said directly: "Mr. Han, Mr. Ren, I have an investment share of 40 million US dollars to share with you."

Forty million dollars?

Three hundred and twenty million yuan!

Han Sanping's eyes suddenly lit up, "Good boy, I knew you wouldn't let us down."

"Tsk, these Hollywood blockbusters are awesome. They can easily cost hundreds of millions. Are they so confident that they can get their money back?" Ren Zhonglun muttered with emotion on his face.

Chen Fei smiled and said, "You don't have to worry about it. There are professional appraisers there. What's more, this is a script written by me. Is there still time to lose money?"

"That's true. I can definitely trust the book you wrote."

Han Sanping interrupted the exchange between the two, "No need to talk nonsense, I want 20 million US dollars."

"SIFF can also offer us US$20 million."

Chen Fei was helpless on the spot.

Is this how you play? How can I still be a white wolf with nothing?

"No, there are too many. If we divide it like this, subsequent cooperation will not be possible. I have to consider the overall situation, not to mention that there will be so many blockbusters in the future. If only the three of us take it all, other people will be jealous, and it will not be beneficial. My future plans.”

plan?

"What are your plans?" Han Sanping looked curious.

"I want to use Hollywood's share of blockbusters to stimulate the domestic film market, and at the same time enhance the voice of Chinese film, television and culture around the world."

As soon as these words came out, the two of them were in awe!

Ren Zhonglun smiled awkwardly, "It seems that we don't have the overall picture."

Han Sanping asked back: "Then how do you divide it?"

"Shanghai Film and China Film and Television each invested US$5 million, and the remaining US$30 million was given to other companies."

"What about you?" Han Sanping's eyes suddenly became complicated.

Chen Fei said bluntly: "The remaining investment share of 30 million US dollars must not be given as it is. The overflow will be mine."

Ren Zhonglun asked curiously: "What kind of overflowing method?"

"Divide it into six parts. Each family should not be less than 10 million. If you want it, take it. If you don't want it, forget it."

Hearing this, Han Sanping and Ren Zhonglun glanced at each other subconsciously, feeling secretly happy in their hearts.

Thanks to the fact that my family’s family name is prefixed with the prefix “国”, otherwise I would have been ripped off by this guy!

Of course, even if you are ripped off, the money still has to be invested.

Participating in Hollywood film investment and production symbolizes the first step for culture to go global. It is a requirement mentioned many times above. If China Film and Shanghai Film can take the lead, this will be a brilliant achievement!

Han Sanping said directly: "Okay, then I'll listen to you. From now on, Hollywood will be looking after you. If this kind of thing happens again, you can call me in time. As long as you can get back your investment share, China Film will dare to invest."

"OK."

The smile on Chen Fei's face was extremely bright.

Isn’t it just investment share? He has plenty here!

There are still many movies waiting for you, and "2012" is just asking for directions.

After seeing off the two people in charge, and counting the time difference, Chen Fei called Columbia Pictures directly.

"Mr. Walker, it's time to announce the news."

"good."

On the other end of the phone, Walker Engel responded, picked up the phone on the table, and directly issued a notice to the publicity department.

…

On the morning of December 3, a piece of news from across the ocean was placed on the front page of Sina.com.

"Columbia Pictures Hollywood yesterday announced some inside information about the disaster film masterpiece "2012". The filming of the film will take place in Sichuan Province and XZ in North America and China.

Director Chen Fei will be one of the persons in charge of filming in the Chinese region, and will have a certain proportion of the investment share, as well as the casting rights for all Chinese regional actors..."

As a platform that has signed a strategic cooperation with Columbia Pictures, the news reported by Sina cannot be false!

After seeing this news, everyone in the domestic film and television industry was stunned for a moment, and then completely fell into madness!

Own a certain percentage of the investment?

Have the casting rights for all Chinese regional actors?

The moment they saw these two conditions, the bosses of major film and television companies and all the actors in the country went completely crazy!

One call after another came to Chen Fei, asking him about the authenticity of the news!

This news is really scary. It has been all morning, but most people still can't suppress their excitement.

There were too many calls coming in, and Chen Fei didn't have time to explain to them, so he simply contacted Sina reporters and asked them to send an announcement for him.

"At 10:30 in the morning, our reporter got the exact information from Director Chen Fei. The investment share and casting rights are indeed true."

As soon as the report was sent out, before anyone could react, China Film and Shanghai Film Corporation issued announcements at the same time.

"China Film has received a certain proportion of investment share from director Chen Fei."

"Shanghai Film Group has received a certain proportion of the investment share from director Chen Fei."

As soon as these two pieces of news broke out, Chen Fei called the bosses of several film and television agencies that he often worked with.

"Mr. Ye, the investment share is quite large. I can't afford it. I wonder if Wanda is interested?"

He said the same thing to Bona, Guangguang, Huayi, Chengtian, New Picture, Emperor, Tangren, Media Asia and many other companies.

As the saying goes, if there is competition, there will be bidding.

How good would it be to call more companies to come over and the one with the highest price will get it directly?

As soon as the notice was sent out, even before the next day, the cars of CEOs of major companies were already parked under the Feiyue Film and Television Company.

Chen Fei greeted several "gods of wealth" at the door very enthusiastically and invited them into the conference room.

Before signing the contract, no one knows what this "certain proportion" is, and Chen Fei's next operations will revolve around these four words...
