Chapter 1179 Save your life! Reject?
For Chen Fei, the challenge of surfing was just a child's play and was not worth mentioning at all.

With his surfing skills and control over water, it is no exaggeration to say that it is not an exaggeration to give him the title of "Aquaman".

In other words, he does not have those magical skills exclusive to "Aquaman", otherwise, he could have played the leading role in the "Aquaman" movie in his true colors.

After maneuvering and flipping on the sea for more than half an hour, he had enough fun. After making sure that the material he collected was enough for the feature film, he immediately turned around and, with the help of the waves, successfully returned to the shore.

And the moment he came ashore, the live broadcast room unexpectedly became lively again!

"The Sea King has come ashore!"

"Congratulations to Director Chen for returning safely!"

"It's so cool to watch! I also want to learn how to surf and go to the beach to see the bikini girls, hehehe~"

"Let me help count. Director Chen has already completed three challenges: 'El Capitan Rock Climbing', 'Wingsuit Flying at Tianmen Mountain', and 'Surfing on the Sea of ​​Cortez'. There are still five challenges waiting for him to complete."

"That half hour really shocked me. I didn't know that surfing could be played this way? There are so many amazing people!"

“You are truly the god of extreme sports!”

The live broadcast room was filled with the exclamations of netizens, and at this time on the Cortez Coast, Chen Long and the crew of "Boundary Breaker" were all looking at Chen Fei who had returned safely in shock, with their mouths wide open and their jaws almost dropped!

Compared to the obstruction of the live camera, these people are actually on the scene and have truly witnessed how terrifying the sea ravaged by the storm is!
But even so, Chen Fei still fearlessly charged towards the waves again and again, and finally escaped from the storm area easily and successfully returned to the shore...

what does this mean?
Almost at the same time, a sentence popped up in everyone's mind: "The brave are fearless! The skilled are daring!"

"Here's a towel. Wipe yourself quickly or you'll catch a cold." Chen Long took the initiative to come over, handed over the towel, and took the surfboard from Chen Fei's hand.

While Chen Fei was drying his hair, he held up the surfboard high, looking left and right, as if he wanted to find something on it.

"Brother? What are you looking for?"

After wiping, he threw the towel to the assistant and looked at Chen Long curiously.

"I'm trying to figure out if there's some kind of mechanism on top of it. Why can it suck people in so tightly that they can't get rid of it no matter how hard they try?"

Bang - Bang -

Chen Long even started to tap the board with his knuckles, and from time to time he would glance at Chen Fei's feet, as if he was looking for a magnet hidden by Chen Fei.

Fortunately, Fade Chen was barefoot at the moment. If he had worn shoes, he might have been asked to take them off for inspection.

"There's no magnet, and there's no mechanism on the board. It's just a surfboard that's a little tougher and harder than a normal surfboard."

"But why can it stick to your feet?"

As the saying goes, a man remains a boy until he dies!
Even though Chen Long is over 60 years old, he still has a playful spirit and is determined to figure out a way to do it.

Chen Fei smiled and said, "I'll teach you after we officially start shooting tomorrow. This thing is easy to learn."

"Okay! It's a deal then! You must teach me how to play tomorrow."

After getting Chen Fei's promise, Chen Long reluctantly handed the surfboard to the Red Bull staff.

The crew will be filming here for about a week. He thinks that with his ability to learn things, he can still learn the sport of surfing.

I have to admit that although he is not young anymore, his physical fitness and agility are still very strong.

In the next few days, he was able to understand and master the surfing moves that Chen Fei taught him every day in a very short period of time.

So a week later, a hot search suddenly rushed to the Weibo hot search list:

"The crew of "Breakers" released the latest behind-the-scenes footage. Chen Long bravely challenges the 3-meter-high waves on a surfboard! His physical fitness remains the same as before!"

Many netizens rushed over after smelling the scent.

When netizens opened the behind-the-scenes video and saw Chen Long successfully completing a thrilling surfing challenge with the help of Chen Fei, they could not hide their surprise.

"Wow! Brother Chen Long is awesome! He can surf at this age? His physical fitness is really amazing!"

"Oh my god, this is the result after just one week of study? Is it because the coach's teaching is effective? Or is it because the student himself is talented?"

"To follow up on what the brother above said, I think it's both. The physical fitness of these two is not to be underestimated. Looking at the entire film and television industry, they are among the best!"

"..."

A wave of popularity once again descended upon "Boundary Breaker", directly stealing most of the limelight from the Lunar New Year box office.

Of course, the main reason is that this year's Lunar New Year box office is really too bad.

"Aquaman" has been released for a week, and the total box office has soared to 12 billion.

But looking at those domestic films, each one is worse than the last, and none of them can successfully stand out.

Under such circumstances, "The Accidental Murderer" and "Nobody" produced by Feiyue Film and Television are undoubtedly under tremendous pressure!
Fortunately, the quality of both movies is not exaggerated, but real!

On the 13th, "The Accidental Murderer" took the lead in facing the rampage of the Hollywood imported blockbuster "Aquaman", and tore a crack in the theater market and broke out of the siege!
The first-day box office of 8692 million is undoubtedly very good compared to the investment and cast of this film.

The most important thing is that this movie actually withstood the "judgment" of Douban's group of extremely discerning movie-watching users.

The score of 8.0 really amazed many people in the film and television industry!

You know, although many movies were released in China this year, only a handful of them scored 8 points on Douban.

The emergence of "The Accidental Murderer" has once again verified the value of the phrase "Flying into film and television, only producing high-quality products".

Before moving to the next filming location, Chen Fei went to Douban to check out netizens' real comments on the film.

"I would say this is probably the best domestic commercial film I've seen in 2019, so does this indirectly prove that Xiao Yang is the number one Q in Chinatown Detective?"

"Brother above, your perspective has confused me. How can these two movies be connected?"

"A pigeon can't fly over the top of a tower, and the scapegoat is always the sheep. We killed others by mistake, and we were also killed by others by mistake... This movie is so cool! The various counter-killing and reversals are also very cool, and the actor Xiao Yang's performance is really awesome. I almost forgot that he was the singer who sang 'Little Apple'."

"Fuck! This ending made me so happy! I never expected that the protagonist and his entire family could escape. Wow! Is this still the ending of a Chinese film? It's rare! It's so rare!"

"Brothers, I saw a lot of public intellectuals on many websites saying that the plot of "The Accidental Murderer" was smearing Thailand and demanding that the movie be removed from the shelves. Damn! This is so outrageous! When Hollywood movies cast Chinese actors as villains, why didn't they protest?"

"Just kill them and that's it!"

Chen Fei actually noticed the appearance of that group of public intellectuals, but he ignored them.

Because the voices of that group of people were so small that they couldn't cause any waves at all.

The main reason why "The Accidental Murderer" was taken off the shelves because of them in the previous life was that the investors behind the film were too weak and could not withstand the criticism from this group of people.

But this time, facing Feiyue Film and Television, they couldn't cause any trouble at all.

Han Sanping was a little worried at first, but after seeing that the group of people couldn't make any big noise no matter how hard they struggled, she felt relieved.

"The premiere of 'Nobody' has been scheduled. Do you have time to come back and attend?"

"I'm afraid we don't have time." Chen Fei explained a little embarrassedly: "The next filming location is in the city area. We must complete the filming within the time specified by the local government."

"Okay, then I'll tell Jia Nu."

Not long after the call was hung up, just as Chen Fei expected, Han Jianu called directly!

"Brother! No way! You can't come back? What am I going to do without you!"

There were terrible howling sounds and the sound of someone covering their mouth and laughing on the other end of the phone. Chen Fei knew what was going on as soon as he heard it.

This girl must be playing outside!
The next second, he reminded him seriously: "Comrade, it's time to test you. If you mess up this movie, your father will never let you go."

"Huh?" Han Jianu was slightly stunned, and suddenly remembered what she had said when she had persuaded her father to join the crew for a guest appearance.

At that time, she had solemnly promised that the box office of this movie would definitely not be less than 10 billion! She was very confident that it could get a high box office!

In order to help her realize her dream, Han Sanping reluctantly agreed to play a guest role for her and also serve as her producer and assistant director.

Now, the movie is about to be released, and she has to hand in her grades... "Oh my god!" At this moment, Han Jianu was really panicked: "Senior brother, please save me! If the movie fails at the box office, my father will never let me go!"

"Why don't you hurry up and start the roadshow and promotion? You only have one week left, okay?"

"Okay, okay, I'll go right away. If the box office fails, I'll definitely be finished with it. That won't do. I still want to live a few more years..."

After hanging up the phone and saying hello to a group of friends, Han Jianu quickly left.

Now is not the time to be free and easy. If you want to be free and easy, you have to wait until the movie is over and you have achieved your goal before you can continue to be free and easy.

Before that, she had to find a way to "save her life" first!
Listening to the busy tone on the phone, Fade Chen shrugged and muttered to himself, "Han Jianu, you're on your own! You have to pay back what you owe, and I can't protect you."

……

The next day, influenced by the relatively good word of mouth, "The Accidental Detective" set a new box office record, and the single-day box office directly exceeded 1 million!
At this time, the film and television industry has truly felt what the "Lunar New Year period" means.

It's a pity that compared with the "a hundred flowers blooming" and "a hundred schools of thought contending" state of the Lunar New Year period in previous years, the popularity of this year's Lunar New Year period is undoubtedly much lower.

Compared with the domestic situation, the situation in Hollywood is completely different.

Lively, boiling, bright lights and feasting, US dollar bills being thrown around...all of this is the most authentic portrayal of the upcoming 91st Academy Awards.

The nomination voting has begun, and invitations to the PR reception have been scattered all over Hollywood.

Jeff Johns was very excited when he received the invitation to the cocktail party from the crew of "Green Book".

Because he had already heard the news in advance, Chen Fei would take time out to attend a public relations reception while transiting in Los Angeles.

After all, he wrote the script of this movie, and he can't just sit there and do nothing. He needs to help promote it occasionally.

So this gave Jeff Jones an opportunity.

He planned to talk to Chen Fei face to face about his thoughts and express DC's sincerity, hoping to successfully win the other party's trust.

Although Warner executives all thought his idea was completely wishful thinking, he still wanted to give it a try.

If Chen Fei is willing to help DC plan its future development prospects, he might be able to help DC get out of the current predicament.

"Prepare the car and get ready to go to the Ritz-Carlton Hotel."

Following Jeff Jones' order, the assistant and the driver quickly responded and began to make preparations before departure.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, the Maybach parked in the parking space outside the Ritz-Carlton Hotel.

After getting out of the car, Jeff Jones adjusted his tie, held the invitation in hand, and walked into the hotel door.

Led by the staff, he came to the door of a banquet hall.

"gentlemen……"

As soon as the security guard spoke, he raised the invitation in his hand and strode into the banquet hall under the other party's gaze.

At this point, the party has actually already begun.

Sexy girls holding trays moved among the crowd, delivering glasses of champagne to the guests.

Some people were dancing ballroom dance in the middle of the dance floor, while others were chatting...

Jeff Jones swept his eyes across the room and soon spotted Chen Fei standing on one side of the dance floor, as well as many stars, celebrities, and producers surrounding him.

He walked straight over there without hesitation, and asked the waiter for a glass of champagne along the way.

~

"Fei, long time no see."

A greeting voice suddenly came from the right, attracting the attention of Chen Fei and the people surrounding him.

When they saw that the person coming was the new CEO of DC Films, before Chen Fei could say anything, the others smiled and greeted him.

Jeff Jones' goal was always clear, so he didn't talk much with others.

After a brief greeting and exchanging business cards with some people, he looked at Fade Chen again and said, "Fei, can I take up some of your time? I want to talk to you alone."

As soon as these words were spoken, the people around him naturally turned around and left tactfully.

"What's the matter?" Fade Chen walked to the corner with him.

"Actually, I've been trying to find a suitable opportunity to talk to you alone these past few days, but unfortunately, you're too busy and I can't find a suitable opportunity at all."

"James Wan told me that you seemed to have something very important to tell me?"

"That's right." Jeff Jones nodded slightly and got straight to the point: "Fei, I would like to invite you to serve as the Chief Content Officer of DC Films to plan the future development direction for DC. I wonder if you are willing?"

"???"

Chen Fei was confused on the spot.

The other party actually invited him, Marvel's Chief Content Officer and director of the "Avengers" series, to join DC and become DC's Chief Content Officer. Wasn't this a joke to him?

"Mr. Jones." Chen Fei didn't know whether to laugh or cry. "I may disappoint you. I will not leave Marvel, and I can't leave."

"No, no, no, Fei, you haven't understood what I mean." Jeff Jones added: "What I mean is that you can be in charge of DC's business while serving as Marvel's chief content officer. I don't mind. I think although we are competitors, we can also be partners."

"Forehead……"

Chen Fei was so confused by his words that he didn't know what to say for a moment.

Serving as Chief Content Officer for both Marvel and DC at the same time?

How is this possible?
Even if he agrees and DC agrees, Warner will definitely not agree.

Moreover, he didn't think the other party could afford to pay him.

Of course, money is not the point. The real point is that DC has no development prospects at all!
In his memory, since the failure of "Justice League", DC Films has only made some waves with the "Aquaman" series of films.

As for other movies like "Wonder Woman", "Batman", and "Suicide Squad", almost every one of them died.

The same is true for blockbusters such as "Shazam!" and "The Flash", which all died miserably.

Therefore, it is better not to go during this flood.

What's more, he hasn't even figured out Marvel's next development route, so where does he get the free time to help DC with planning?
Thinking of this, Fade Chen immediately shook his head and said, "I'm sorry, Mr. Jones, I have no interest in being the Chief Content Officer of DC. I may disappoint you."

"You can set any conditions you want. Salary, equity incentives... can all be based on the highest standards!" Jeff Jones still wanted to fight for it, and couldn't wait to offer a lot of favorable conditions.

Fade Chen smiled slightly: "I think you should know that I am not short of money. I just don't have the extra time and energy to do more things."

"..."

Jeff Jones never expected that the negotiations would end in failure.

And most importantly, he keenly noticed that when Chen Fei heard him talking about DC's future plans, there seemed to be a flash of... pity in his eyes?

"What does that look mean? Doesn't he think highly of the plans and arrangements I've made for the future of DC Films?"

Jeff Jones, who was in a bad mood, found David F. Sandberg and talked to him again about the promotion plan of "Shazam!"

This film was designed to be the successor to "Aquaman" and is also one of the projects that Jeff Johns has put a lot of effort into.

He wanted to use this movie to compete with Marvel's "Captain Marvel" and to add some trouble to "Avengers 4: End Game".

Before meeting Chen Fei today, he was still very confident.

But after meeting Chen Fei, for some reason, he suddenly felt a little panicked!
