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

Chapter 1223 60 billion! A new box office record in the history of Chinese-language films!
"The family drama film "Galaxy Tutorial", jointly produced by Enlight Media and Feiyue Films, directed and acted by Deng Chao and Yu Baimei, and starring Deng Chao, Ren Suxi, Wang Xi and others, was taken off the screen last night. The film has been released for 30 days and the cumulative box office has reached 12.77 billion."

“Warm congratulations! The Wandering Earth has officially surpassed the 24 billion mark in total box office revenue after 60 days of release! It has successfully surpassed Wolf Warrior 2 and ranked No. 1 in the Chinese film box office history list!”

"Congratulations to Director Guo Fan for officially joining the 6 billion box office director club in Chinese film history."

"Shanghai Fortress, a sci-fi/romance/war film directed by Teng Huatao and starring Lu Han and Shu Qi, has been forced to be withdrawn from theaters due to exhaustion of its box office potential. It has grossed a total of 1.24 million yuan."

"This morning, Penguin Pictures and Feiyue Pictures jointly announced that they will make a film and television adaptation based on the e-sports game of the same name, CrossFire.

At present, the adaptation of the film and television script has been completed. It mainly tells the story of Xiao Feng and Lu Xiaobei, two fans of the e-sports game "Cross Fire" in two different time and space. After an accidental "encounter", the two encouraged each other and grew up together.

It has been confirmed that Lu Han, a Chinese actor and singer born in the 90s, will play the leading male role "Xiao Feng" in the drama.

Many of the hot searches and grand events on August 8th have even reached the conditions for being recorded in film and television.

The first domestic movie to break 60 billion is born!
With its hard science fiction attitude, "The Wandering Earth" has exploded with unparalleled box office potential this summer, successfully breaking the previous box office record of 2 billion set by "Wolf Warrior 58".

At the same time, Guo Fan also successfully became the first member of the country's "60 billion box office director club".

It is no exaggeration to say that at this moment, the heated discussion caused by "The Wandering Earth" has reached the point where everyone knows about it!

Various marketing accounts, media, official media, foreign media, etc. are all reporting frantically.

As for netizens, they were extremely excited at this moment!

"Holy crap! This is so awesome! It's already 60 billion at the box office? Oh my god!"

"A new record for Chinese-language films has been set! So cool!"

"Can we reach 10 billion? I just want to ask, can we reach 10 billion?"

"Forget about the 1 billion. After all, the daily new box office has fallen below 70 million. I think it will be billion at most."

"The Wandering Earth is awesome! Guo Fan is awesome! Chinese sci-fi movies are awesome! Feiyue Films is awesome! Isn't this too good? 60 billion!"

"If we include the movie Nezha: The Devil Child Comes into the World at the beginning of the year, Feiyue Films has only used two movies to push the company's annual total box office to 112 billion? Wow! That's awesome!"

Here, comments praising and reporting on "The Wandering Earth" have already occupied the top five spots on the hot search list!
On the other hand, no one is paying attention to "Shanghai Fortress" now.

Less than 10 days after its release, it was abandoned due to poor word of mouth and box office, and it also dragged down the Chinese science fiction movies...

It’s because the times are open now. If this had happened in the past, someone would definitely stand up and call Teng Huatao a “traitor dog”!
Chinese science fiction films have finally started to rise, and it would be fine if you didn't help, but you actually started to make things worse.

Are you going to die?!
Some people even put Teng Huatao and Lu Tailang together, saying that they are the "Crouching Dragon and Phoenix Chick" of the Chinese film history circle.

There was a lot of scolding online, and even Xiang Zuo jumped out to join in the fun.

He directly stood on Lu Han's side and angrily blasted Teng Hua on Weibo:
"Please don't be so disgusted by what a certain director said. If he wasn't a top-tier star at the time, would you have used him? Today you used him, please take good care of your actors!

Are you sure you are still a director? How can a director blame the actors? Are you a man? You can't even take the blame, so don't do this job! Please go back to school, you don't have the manners of a director at all!"

In fact, Xiang Zuo was also the target of ridicule by netizens in the past.

Especially after he married Guo Biting this year, there were a lot of people scolding him online.

But this time, his behavior of angrily criticizing Teng Huatao and choosing to speak up for Lu Han attracted a lot of likes and praise from people.

"This is the first time I recognize Xiang Zuo. Although he is a second-generation, he is not blind. Unlike Teng Huatao, he is blind and dying!"

"Haha, Teng Huatao, are you watching? Didn't you say that my brother is not suitable to be an actor? Then what's the matter with this "Cross Fire"? Isn't this the best recognition for Brother Lu?"

"Does anyone understand the value of Feiyue Pictures + Penguin Pictures? It's absolutely amazing that my brother Lu can be recognized by these two companies!"

"The main problem is that there is something wrong with the script. Let alone Lu Han, even if someone else plays the role, this movie will still flop! Wu Jing can't handle it!"

"Let's focus on Cross Fire next. Get out of here with Shanghai Fortress. Teng Huatao, get out of here too. Take your crappy movie and Shu Qi and get out of here!"

There was a lot of angry curses on the Internet, so Teng Huatao didn't even dare to leave the house.

You know, in addition to "Shanghai Fortress", his TV series "The King's Avatar" is still on the air.

Logically speaking, as a director, he needs to go on publicity and roadshow activities with Yang Yang, Jiang Shuying and others.

But whether it was the investor Lemon Pictures or the co-producer Penguin Pictures, they had no intention of calling him out for promotion at all.

Even the film production company is intentionally or unintentionally covering up the fact that he filmed this drama!

There is no way, the producer is also afraid of getting into trouble~
Teng Huatao is almost being scolded by the public opinion now. If he comes out to promote the hit drama again, maybe those black fans will come and destroy the drama as well!

Lemon Pictures/Penguin Pictures: "Shanghai Fortress" has become a hit, so let's just let "The King's Avatar" go. You can all go and scold Teng Huatao himself.

Teng Huatao: "..."

click-

The sound of porcelain exploding echoed in the office, it was so loud.

"what!!!!"

Teng Huatao stood there in frustration and rage, causing a group of employees outside to be frightened.

Everyone is thinking at this moment, if he goes crazy, what will happen to next month's salary and five social insurances and one housing fund?
Even Teng Huatao's secretary and assistant now have the idea of ​​changing jobs.

The reason is very simple. This week, as the box office of "Shanghai Fortress" continued to drop, Teng Huatao seemed to have gone crazy and started talking nonsense in a delirious state.

Especially today.

With the total box office of "The Wandering Earth" exceeding 60 billion, "Shanghai Fortress" being forced to be taken offline, Lu Han signing a new drama and a series of other events, he could no longer hold it in!
He smashed everything that could be smashed in the office. Now he was like a rabid dog, crying and howling like a ghost, and didn't stop for a long time.

"Sister Liu, how about you go and persuade them?"

Teng Huatao's assistant looked at the secretary and made a small suggestion.

"I'm not going. What if he throws something at me? If you want to go, go ahead. I'll cheer you on from behind."

"Thank you for your kindness, but forget it. I'm scared too."

The two of them stood outside the door, being "courteous" to each other, and did not dare to go in to check on Teng Huatao's condition.

But at this moment, the two heard a sudden howl of pain coming from the office!
"Ah! My feet! My feet!"

Hearing the sound, the two of them immediately felt something was wrong and quickly opened the door and rushed in.

At this time, Teng Huatao was lying on the ground, holding his feet and crying.

There was a lot of mess around, as well as some sharp objects such as broken vase fragments.

Looking at the blood oozing from between Teng Huatao's fingers, how could the two not understand that he accidentally fell himself while venting his anger.

"Quick! An ambulance! Call an ambulance!"

The office was filled with Teng Huatao's cries and his secretary's shouts, and the entire studio became a mess. It was even more exaggerated than "a scene of chaos"!
……

Leap Film and Television.

No matter how chaotic the outside world was, or how much of a sensation and heated discussion it caused, Chen Fei still remained calm.

Isn’t it just breaking 60 billion?

What's so exciting?

I really have never seen the world.

Compared to paying attention to those trending searches, he is quite interested in the project "Rock Solid".

exactly……

"After this film is made, are you sure it can pass the review?"

While speaking, Chen Fei turned his gaze away from the script and turned his attention to Zhang Yimou and Wang Changtian.

In fact, the domestic film and television industry has indeed become much more open since its development.

Especially since the launch of "In the Name of People", many subsequent film and television works have gradually become "bold".

"The Accidental Murderer" is one of his representative works.

Especially the ending, Li Weijie actually successfully escaped legal punishment after taking revenge. This ending would have been very bold in the past!

It was only with the support of Feiyue Films' reputation and the help of Han Sanping behind the scenes that the feature film was successfully approved.

Otherwise, it would inevitably be like "Better Days", which was sent back for revisions and had to be moved to an unpopular schedule.

Now, the script of "Rock Solid" brought by Wang Changtian and Zhang Yimou is even bolder than the plots of "The Accidental Detective" and "Better Days"!

There is no problem with the script being approved, but if the final film is shot according to the script, it is not so easy to release it without any cuts.

The reason is simple, the subject matter is too sensitive!

Fighting corruption and evil forces, violence and criminal details, and even sexual violence!
In other words, the big boss behind the scenes is not as exaggerated as in "In the Name of People". Otherwise, this script could probably be called the movie version of "In the Name of People".

"Oh!" Wang Changtian sighed and said, "Isn't it because they are worried that it won't pass the review, so they came to you?" Will it not pass the review?

Find me?

Chen Fei was immediately amused: "I'm not from the review committee, why are you looking for me?"

Wang Changtian did not answer directly, but asked: "Why don't you tell the story first?"

"it is good."

Chen Fei absolutely cannot deny this.

The story of the entire script is shrouded in the misty night of the city. This "ambiguous" atmosphere is not only a portrayal of suspense and mystery, but also a symbol of the difficulty in distinguishing between good and evil and the entanglement of love and hate among various characters.

The atmosphere is awesome!
Just reading the text made Chen Fei feel like he was being "baptized by a storm".

"Then do you think director Zhang Yimou can make a good film?"

Wang Changtian's words stunned Chen Fei.

He subconsciously turned his head and looked at Lao Mouzi who was sitting on the sofa without saying a word.

At this moment, Zhang Yimou's gaze happened to look over here. His eyes were firm and bright. There was expectation and worry, but more of it was the desire to give it a try!

Chen Fei suddenly shook his head and said, "I don't know if Director Zhang is capable of this. After all, I have never seen him direct a movie of this kind.

But I think he should be fine, after all, he is very good at making art films, and I think he can handle this kind of subject easily."

"Isn't that right?" Wang Changtian spread his hands. "Since you trust him and are optimistic about this project, then it's okay for you to invest in it, right?"

"certainly……"

Fade Chen nodded subconsciously, but he suddenly reacted the next second.

Well, it turns out that I was waiting here!
"Are you trying to use the name of Feiyue Films to increase your chances of passing the review?"

"Haha, that's right." Wang Changtian said frankly, "I really don't have confidence, otherwise I wouldn't have come to you. If the film is edited into a mess, it would be better not to shoot it.

You just watched it, this project is really good, how about it? Let's work together? Let's complete this project and let the outside world see the effect of the film version of "In the Name of People", how about it?"

Upon hearing this, Fade Chen fell into deep thought.

He had actually seen this movie before his rebirth.

Although the released version showed an impressive scale, the lighting style and official reality were all involved.

But it is undeniable that the traces of deletions still make people feel more confused than understood, and there are more question marks than exclamation marks.

Many plots even need to be glimpsed in the remaining details, or even guessed at the original appearance, and there are too many unspeakable things that need to be dug deeper.

The roles of Zheng Gang and his wife are confusing and full of mysteries, and Chen Daoming's role is always "hanging" above...

This feeling is undoubtedly very uncomfortable for movie fans.

But if all of it can really be shown, then this will definitely be a rare masterpiece!
Thinking of this, Fade Chen slowly shook his head...

When Wang Changtian and Zhang Yimou saw his action, they were both slightly stunned, and then a bit of disappointment appeared in their eyes.

But the next second, they heard Fade Chen say, "It's not enough to just rely on Feiyue Film and Lighting."

"Huh?" Wang Changtian's eyes widened suddenly. "What do you mean?"

Chen Fei said slowly: "Invite Shanghai Film Studio and Xi'an Film Studio to join, and then talk to the Supreme People's Procuratorate and try to get them in as well. This way, we can avoid too many cuts to the greatest extent."

"Hahaha, okay! Let's do it!"

Wang Changtian slapped the armrest of the sofa fiercely, he was so excited.

He is not the kind of person who likes to eat alone. What's more, the bigger the plate, the more everyone can get.

Of course he understood this principle.

Therefore, facing Chen Fei's proposal, he did not hesitate at all and agreed immediately.

At this time, Zhang Yimou, who was standing aside, also had a smile on his face.

If the lineup of producers becomes Guangguang + Feiyue Films + Shanghai Film Group + Xi'an Film Group + the Supreme People's Procuratorate, then this project will definitely be much more stable than before!

"I'll contact Shanghai Film Studio and Xi'an Film Studio." Wang Changtian stood up and walked back and forth excitedly. "As for the Supreme People's Procuratorate, you may have to talk to them."

"Okay, leave the Supreme People's Procuratorate to me." Chen Fei was still quite confident.

After all, the Supreme People's Procuratorate Film and Television Center also needs publicity and has tasks to complete every year.

Therefore, he believed that the other party would not reject this project.

At this moment, Fade Chen turned to look at Zhang Yimou and asked, "Director Zhang, do you have any ideas about the casting of the movie?"

Zhang Yimou seemed to have guessed something and asked, "Director Chen, do you have any suggestions?"

Fade Chen smiled at him. "Actually, I don't have any suggestions. I just think this subject is pretty good, so it's better to use veteran actors instead of popular actors."

"Ah."

Zhang Yimou nodded slightly, and suddenly remembered that Dong Ping had recommended to him that Zhou Dongyu play the leading female role "Li Huilin".

He knew clearly that this was an operation carried out by the Hong Kong circle represented by Chen Kexin and Wang Jiawei, who wanted to promote Zhou Dongyu.

If it were in the past, he would naturally not pay attention to these things.

But now, with more and greater support, he especially wants to make this movie more perfect.

In this situation, Zhou Dongyu is not quite suitable.

On this side, Chen Fei, Wang Changtian and Zhang Yimou were discussing how to proceed with the project "As Solid as a Rock".

On the other hand, Zhang Ziyi, who had just finished filming her guest role and left the crew of "Fengshen", was now feeling sad about the box office performance of "The Wandering Earth".

Back then, she had auditioned for this movie, but in the end she didn't even get a cameo role.

She even complained in her mind at the time, thinking that the performance of this movie would not be very good after its release.

But no one would have expected that the total box office would have exceeded 60 billion within less than a month of its release!

"If I had been able to get the chance to play that guest role, I might still be able to take advantage of the popularity now."

She muttered to herself, feeling very regretful.

If I had known this, I should have tried harder.

But just as she was feeling sad, her agent's voice suddenly rang in her ears: "Sister Ziyi, you will start to follow the crew of The Climbers to do roadshows and promotional activities. Is there anything you need to arrange at home?"

"How's Wake Up?"

"She is very well behaved. She has a lot of fun in kindergarten and the teachers are very caring towards her."

Hearing this, a smile suddenly appeared on Zhang Ziyi's face.

Xingxing is her and Wang Feng’s daughter. She is 4 years old this year and has just started kindergarten.

Her biggest dream is that her daughter can grow up healthily and that her career can return to the level it was before she got married.

Now, everything seems to be moving in the right direction.

"Where is my husband? What is he doing recently?" Because she was too busy filming, Zhang Ziyi hadn't seen Wang Feng for a long time.

"My brother-in-law just released a new song not long ago, and he is currently traveling around the country to promote it."

"Ah?" Zhang Ziyi was slightly stunned. "He released a new song again? When was it released? How come I haven't heard about it?"

The agent smiled awkwardly and said, "Sister, our studio has already helped with the promotion, and your personal Weibo has also helped with the promotion for a few days.

As for the time when my brother-in-law released the song...it happened to be the day after The Wandering Earth was released. At that time, the entire Internet was reporting on that movie, so maybe..."

The agent didn't know what to say next.

And Zhang Ziyi also fell silent.

She has gradually discovered a pattern in recent years.

It seems that every time Wang Feng releases a song, there is always a particularly hot event that successfully suppresses the popularity of his song...

And it’s like this every time!

For example, the last time they released a song, it happened to be the official announcement by Lu Han and Guan Xiaotong!
The previous times were when Liu Yifei gave birth, Chen Fei and Liu Yifei's world wedding, the release of "Wolf Warrior 2", etc...

It felt like it was about to turn into a "metaphysical" event, which really left Zhang Ziyi a little confused.
