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

Chapter 1089: White Lotus character collapses? White opens champagne in the first half! Refuse the 10 billion guarantee!
I don't know which media outlet was so bored that it brought up the story of Erkang and Ziwei again and hyped it up.

A few years ago, these two people caused a lot of controversy because of their kissing scenes.

Now look what happens, Erkang is being scolded again.

"Ziwei was so pitiful at that time. She could only grit her teeth and persevere. I feel sad for her when I think of this. Erkang is so mean!"

“Isn’t this workplace bullying?”

“I suggest banning him!”

You know, when "My Fair Princess" was first broadcast, it was very popular all over Asia and was popular in China, Japan and South Korea. The highest ratings once exceeded 62.8%, which was much higher than the Spring Festival Gala, and no other drama can surpass it to this day!

Most of the actors in the drama have become household names in the past 20 years!
On the other hand, Erkang is still being attacked by many people today, many years later, and even his character was once strongly questioned.

However, what many netizens, media and marketing accounts never expected was that just when everyone thought he would choose to remain silent again, he actually made a strong response online:
"My loser friends, have you ever thought about this: if I had forcefully kissed someone with tongue, why didn't she protest on the spot? In their crew, are the on-site staff and directors all my relatives?
The saddest thing is that the fans actually believed her words... Haha, now I can only say that I am indeed not worthy of co-starring with such a 'superior person'..."

Perhaps Erkang made such remarks just to vent his resentment.

But he never expected that once the relevant response came out, more than half of the many people who had scolded him before would choose to stand on his side.

Of course, this is also closely related to the fact that Ziwei has not had a very good reputation in recent years. Coupled with the previous "tea egg" incident, it also caused a lot of dissatisfaction among mainland netizens.

So this time, many netizens spoke out against Ziwei:
"I've disliked her for a long time. This time I'm on Erkang's side. With her popularity and status back then, if he really wanted to bully her, he would have slept with her long ago. Is there any need to forcefully kiss her?"

"This woman is quite explosive. She pretends to be a white lotus, but she is really not that good."

"We're already filming a kissing scene, and you're still upset and resentful. Is there something wrong with you?"

"I'm firmly on Erkang's side this time. That woman has long been ruined. She is not a good person."

If it were a few years ago, Ziwei would definitely step forward and take this opportunity to get some traffic, create some popularity, and make some money again.

But times have changed. The glorious days of Hong Kong and Taiwan entertainment have long gone.

In addition, her own character is not tenable, many netizens have seen her true colors, and there are many people in the domestic entertainment industry who are eyeing her and preparing to take action, so she dare not show up...

After eating melon for more than half an hour, Chen Fei felt a little sleepy, so he went to the bed in the inner room and took a nap while hugging Liu Yifei.

After landing in Los Angeles, the two first returned to Beverly Hills to adjust to the jet lag, and then each went about their business and became busy.

Chen Fei’s current main task is the post-production editing of “Manchester by the Sea”, followed by “Avengers 3”.

The former needs to go online as soon as possible to compete for the Oscars.

The latter will not be released until after May next year, so it is relatively not urgent.

……

Time flies, and in the blink of an eye it is already September.

As Chen Fei expected, the daily box office of "Wolf Warrior 2" dropped very quickly after entering the key extension stage.

On the last day of August, new box office revenue had dropped to 8 million.

If the situation continues like this, the film will probably be able to end successfully if it can get more than 2 million yuan at the box office.

Several investors wanted to continue to save the film, but there were several imported blockbusters about to be released, and they simply couldn't compete with the popularity...

To sum up, the box office potential of "Wolf Warrior 2" has been exhausted.

However, on the other side, those who were "taking advantage of the traffic and popularity" were catching up with great enthusiasm.

"Sky Hunter" successfully took over from "Wolf Warrior 2" and became the most popular main theme movie at the moment!
"I heard that China Film Group offered a guaranteed box office of 10 billion yuan for Sky Hunter, but Li Chen refused. He believed that the film he directed would definitely earn more than 10 billion yuan..."

Wang Changtian was quite good at gathering information, and the developments on Sky Hunter were not out of his control.

"Hey? You refused with a guaranteed box office of 10 billion?"

Chen Fei was immediately happy. It seemed that Li Chen was really not destined to make money!
If we agree to this, won't all the risks be transferred to China Film Group? Why should we worry so much?
"I feel like he seems quite confident. Producer Yin Sixie even said publicly that Sky Hunter will definitely become the second mainstream blockbuster to break 50 billion in box office!"

"Haha, then I'll have to wait and see. A second 50 billion box office hit? It's really boastful..."

Chen Fei was quite curious about what kind of expression Li Chen would have when the real box office data of this movie came out.

He still has some memories of the movie in his mind.

I vaguely remember that this movie didn't even make 50 million, let alone 5 billion. In the end, it suffered huge losses, and even Li Chen's dream of becoming a director was completely shattered!

~

No matter what the outside world thinks, Li Chen himself is quite confident.

Especially after watching the finished film for the first time, he was full of confidence and called his girlfriend "Liu Mei" who was preparing to audition for the leading female role in the movie "She Killed":
"Bingbing, this time I'm going to let you see how strong my directing skills are. I'm going to become an instant hit and one of the top directors in the country!"

"Wow! That's amazing! I hope you can realize your dream as soon as possible..."

Fan Bingbing has a high emotional quotient and was able to provide the right emotional value to her boyfriend, which made Li Chen burst into a silly laugh.

"I bought a bottle of red wine. When you come back tonight, we'll celebrate together and toast to the success of Sky Hunter in advance. How about that?"

Hearing this, Fan Bingbing immediately frowned.

She actually didn't like the behavior of opening champagne at halftime, but Li Chen was in high spirits and she couldn't refuse.

Ameis Pictures also participated in the investment of this movie, and as the boss of the company, she naturally wanted to make it a big hit at the box office.

Thinking of this, she gritted her teeth and agreed: "Okay, then after the audition, I will go back early tonight."

"Yeah, I'll wait for you at home."

After ending the call, Fan Bingbing walked out of the cubicle with the script and headed towards the audition room.

When passing the waiting area in the corridor, she glanced at Zhang Ziyi who was familiarizing herself with the script, and the corners of her mouth suddenly rose slightly, revealing a hint of sarcasm.

"Want to compete with me for a role? Haha, with you? Do you think you are still the international Zhang Ziyi you once were? Do you know how to play the domestic entertainment industry? You should go home early and take care of the baby!"

At this time, Zhang Ziyi also noticed Fan Bingbing, who was walking with his head held high and chest puffed out.

When enemies meet, they are extremely jealous of each other!

She also began to curse in her heart: "Ha! Bitch! If you keep being so arrogant, sooner or later you will get what you deserve."

……

After a night, it was September 9nd.

Early in the morning, major domestic social media platforms became lively.

"On its first day of release, the war and historical film Dunkirk, directed by Christopher Nolan, earned 5754.7 million RMB at the box office."

"Tom Holland, Michael Keaton, Robert Downey Jr. and other Hollywood stars made a surprise appearance in the capital to launch a roadshow to promote Spider-Man: Homecoming, which has been officially scheduled to be released in mainland China on September 9."

"The comedy film "Crazy Alien", jointly produced by Feiyue Films and Ning Hao Studio, directed by Ning Hao, and co-starred by Huang Bo, Shen Teng, Deng Chao and others, officially held its opening ceremony in Qingdao this morning..."

"Reprinted from The Hollywood Journal, the action, thriller, and science fiction film Venom, co-produced by Walton Pictures, Marvel, and Sony Columbia, starring Tom Hardy and Michelle Williams, officially started filming at the Walton Pictures studio in Los Angeles yesterday..."

"Many films that will be released during the National Day holiday, such as "Sewing Machine Band", "Sky Hunter", "The Shameful Iron Fist" and "Beyond the Storm", have launched promotional roadshows one after another..."

As time comes to September, the National Day holiday is naturally approaching.

This year's National Day is different from previous years. It has a very rare 8-day long holiday... This is mainly because the Mid-Autumn Festival falls on October 10th, and the two periods are combined into one, leading to this situation.

This has also led to an increasing number of movies competing for the National Day box office!
In just one day, several animated films were announced to be released on October 10st.

Even so, compared to the "hell-level" Lunar New Year film season this year, the National Day film season is much less stressful. Feng Gangpao has started to regret his decision these days.

If he had known that the competition during the Lunar New Year holiday would be so fierce, he would definitely not have moved.

But now that things have come to this, there is no point in thinking too much. I can only try my best to increase the popularity and traffic of the film as much as possible, and hope to have a good harvest.

However, just as he was secretly thinking about the follow-up plan, a phone call came and he was stunned.

"What did you say? The censorship department asked for a re-edit of Youth? Are you kidding? The movie has already passed the censorship, why are they doing this?"

On the other side of the phone, Wang Zhonglei explained helplessly: "The reason given by the review is that there are too many bloody scenes, and they asked to cut some of them and reorganize them.

But according to what I heard, some people seem to be dissatisfied with the form of your film. After all, the current mainstream is praise, but you are holding on to the following things, which naturally aroused the dissatisfaction of some people. "

"grass!"

Feng Xiaogang burst into swear words on the spot and cursed loudly on the phone.

Wang Zhonglei felt a little headache after hearing this, and could only advise: "You should re-edit it as soon as possible. Fortunately, we have moved the release date to December in advance. If it is suddenly withdrawn after it is scheduled, the loss will be huge."

"What the hell is going on with the audit? They don't allow this to be displayed, they don't allow that to be displayed, what the hell is going on..."

Feng Xiaogang was still cursing, even though Wang Zhonglei had hung up the phone, he still didn't stop.

This made it difficult for Liu Zhenyun, who worked in the same office with him, as he couldn't decide whether to leave or stay. He could only endure and listen to him complain and curse at the government.

……

On the second Friday of September, just when Chen Fei had completed half of the post-production work on Manchester by the Sea, Liu Yifei returned to Los Angeles from New York.

As soon as they met, Liu Yifei started to talk excitedly: "That phoenix coronet and bridal robe is very beautiful. It fits me very well, especially the tiara. It is so beautiful. The many agate stones on it sparkle when the light shines on them..."

Liu Yifei was very satisfied with the wedding dress which cost 4000 million to make!

There are more than twenty days left until the wedding date, and she can't wait to put on her clothes and get married.

"As long as you like it."

Seeing Liu Yifei so happy, Chen Fei himself was also very happy.

Thinking about getting married soon, he was even a little nervous, not knowing what the scene would be like then.

Compared to him, Liu Yifei's performance was even more exaggerated!
"Fade Chen, the National Day is coming soon, and we're going to hold a wedding celebration. I'm so nervous when I think about going on stage! Is there any way you can help me relax?"

ease?

After thinking for a moment, Fade Chen suggested, "How about we practice our courage tonight? Fight poison with poison?"

"Build courage?" Liu Yifei was a little confused: "How do you do it?"

"IT is out today. How about we go watch this horror movie?"

Hearing this, Liu Yifei's eyes suddenly lit up!
She was quite interested in this method of "fighting poison with poison".

"Okay, okay, watching horror movies can help you build up your courage. This way you won't be nervous when you go on stage because you'll be braver!"

"Yes, that's it."

Chen Fei nodded heavily, agreeing with this statement very much.

"I'll go book the tickets first."

Liu Yifei quickly ran to get her cell phone.

Night fell quickly, and the two took a car to the nearest cinema near their home. They walked into the screening room with many other movie fans to watch the American horror film "IT"!
At the same time, in China, the ancient costume love TV series project "Fuyao", produced by Penguin Pictures, was finally announced.

"At 9 a.m., Penguin Pictures announced its latest costume drama project "Fuyao", which is adapted from Tianxia Guiyuan's novel "Empress of Fuyao". It tells the story of an ordinary girl Fuyao and the crown prince of Tianquan Kingdom, Changsun Wuji, who fell in love, went through hardships, overcame difficulties, joined hands to fight against injustice and finally stayed together."

"The film has been confirmed to be co-starred by Yang Mi and Ruan Jingtian, and will officially start filming in late September."

"In the process of IP adaptation, the drama chose the creative idea of ​​female narrative + modern value system, and got rid of the routine of traditional heroine dramas with love as the absolute center and the male protagonist protecting and saving the girl as the climax of the plot.

The heroine Fuyao's growth is completely independent in personality and spirit, and she does not have the habitual thinking of relying on others for help. This is also a thorough correction of the female theme from the ideological foundation level..."

As expected, once the "Fuyao" project was announced, it immediately generated huge traffic and popularity.

Then, with Yang Mi’s group of “little bee” fans “spreading pollination” everywhere, the drama became extremely popular in a very short period of time!

On Jiaxing's side, Zeng Jia and Yang Mi both smiled immediately.

After a long wait, the drama has finally been officially announced.

Moreover, this time period is also very well chosen. There is no need to worry about other entertainment news coming out to compete for traffic. The popularity is directly maximized, which is absolutely perfect!

At the same time, Zeng Jia also brought Yang Mi even better news: "Mi Mi, our second round of financing has basically been confirmed!"

"What? The second round of financing has been confirmed? What are the details? Which company invested? How much financing has been raised?"

Because of the busy "Golden September and Silver October", Yang Mi has been running around recently and has not had time to take care of the company's business.

Now, when I heard that Zeng Jia had already secured the second round of financing, I couldn't hide my curiosity.

"The subscription price is 250 yuan per share, for a total of 100 million shares..." Zeng Jia said, and suddenly laughed: "This time, we directly got 2.5 million yuan in financing, and the company's valuation has reached 50 billion yuan!"

"So many!" Yang Mi was a little scared.

After all, when Jiaxing conducted its first round of financing in 15, its valuation was only 15 billion.

I didn’t expect that in just two years, the valuation has soared from 15 billion to 50 billion, more than three times. Isn’t this appreciation rate too fast? !

"It's normal." Zeng Jia was not as excited as Yang Mi, and explained: "Think about it, how much have we paid in the past two years? How many projects have we completed? This is all due to our hard work..."

After hearing these words and recalling the days and nights of the past two years, the shock on Yang Mi's face suddenly diminished a lot.

After all, she had put her youth and her acting career on the line. She hadn't taken a day off for two years, and she was still working even when she was sick...

Comparing it to my own efforts, everything I have now is undoubtedly what I deserve!

After calming down from the excitement, Yang Mi asked curiously, "Who is the investor?"

"SHZ Junyi Yunyang Co., Ltd."

Jun Yi Yun Yang?

This name seemed unfamiliar to Yang Mi, as if she had never heard of it before.

Seeing the confusion on her face, Zeng Jia chuckled and added, "Perfect World is behind this company."

Perfect world?!
Yang Mi's eyes widened suddenly. "Is it the listed company Perfect World that is involved in radio, television, film, game and recording production?"

"That's right. After this cooperation is reached, Jiaxing will reach a 'film and game strategic cooperation' with Perfect World, which will provide more possibilities and resources for our company's business expansion in the fields of film, television, games, etc..."

Zeng Jia talked incessantly, and Yang Mi listened with fascination, her mind filled with beautiful visions of the future.

"In this way, we can also participate in the investment of "Dream Building Love"?"

"Of course!"

Zeng Jia smiled confidently, and she already had some of the demeanor of a future female chairman of a listed company!
