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

Chapter 1277. They threw mud at me, and I used the mud to plant lotus!
"Last night, the love/fantasy/comedy film "I'll Wait for You at the End of Time", produced by Alibaba Pictures, directed by Yao Tingting, and starring Li Hongqi, Li Yitong, and Fan Wei, was officially withdrawn from the screen due to exhaustion of its box office potential.

The film was released for 20 days and grossed a total of RMB 5.23 million, ranking No. 1 on this year’s Chinese Valentine’s Day box office performance list.”

"Warm congratulations! The literary drama "Life Events" produced by Feiyue Films, directed by Wen Muye, written by Chen Fei, and produced by Tian Zhuangzhuang, starring Zhu Yilong, Yang Enyou, Zhao Liying and others,
Last night at the Venice International Film Festival awards ceremony, it won the Golden Lion Award for Best Film and Best Screenplay! Becoming the biggest winner! "

"Wen Muye, a new director born after 85, successfully won the Golden Lion Award for Best Film in his debut, becoming the seventh Golden Lion director of Chinese-language films and shining around the world!"

"At the award ceremony, Director Wen Muye burst into tears and called out to Director Chen Fei, expressing his sincere gratitude for his help and recognition..."

On the morning of the 13th, before the first ray of sunlight completely penetrated the gap in the curtains, Chen Fei got up early.

As usual, the first thing he did when he opened his eyes was to reach for his cell phone.

But today, the moment he unlocked the screen, he was shocked by the dense number of missed calls and text messages in front of him.

Upon closer inspection, the senders of the missed calls and text messages were surprisingly those who were going to Venice to attend the awards ceremony.

Tian Zhuangzhuang, Wen Muye, Zhao Liying, Zhu Yilong...

And all those missed calls and text messages conveyed the same shocking message to him:

"Life Events" successfully won the grand prize at the Venice Film Festival!

Fade Chen raised his eyebrows and scratched his head awkwardly.

He suddenly remembered that he seemed to have set his phone to silent mode before going to bed last night, so he forgot that yesterday was the awards ceremony of the 77th Venice International Film Festival...

After a quick wash, I went to the hotel restaurant.

After getting the food and sitting down next to Guo Fan, Chen Fei yawned and said casually, "Last night was the awards ceremony of the 77th Venice International Film Festival? I didn't even notice it."

When Guo Fan heard this, his eyes widened instantly, with disbelief written all over his face. He almost thought he had heard it wrong.

"Director Chen? This is a script you wrote yourself. It's also a key project of our company. It's also been selected for the main competition section of the Venice International Film Festival. How come you didn't pay special attention to it?"

Guo Fan's tone was full of doubt and confusion. In his opinion, at such an important moment, one should keep a close eye on it at all times.

Fade Chen took a bite of the bun and shrugged lightly, inadvertently revealing a hint of Versailles temperament.

"I really didn't pay much attention to it. I won too many awards in the past few years, so I haven't paid much attention to the three major European film festivals in recent years."

His tone was steady, yet he inadvertently revealed a kind of calmness that comes from being a veteran.

In fact, ever since LGBT themes became popular in the international film scene, Chen Fei's attention to the Oscars and the three major European film festivals has shown a downward trend.

In his opinion, the selection of many awards in recent years has gradually deviated from pure artistic standards.

If the "Life Events" team had not been going to attend the Venice Film Festival, he would not even have used the public relations team resources that he had carefully built and retained.

And in Chen Fei's mind, it was almost certain that this film would win an award.

After all, we are currently in a special period of the epidemic, the global film industry has been hit hard, and the output of high-quality films has dropped sharply.

As an internationally renowned film festival, the Venice Film Festival is in urgent need of an influential work to create hype, attract more attention and investment from film companies, and thereby revitalize the slightly sluggish film market.

Among the many unknown films that are purely competing for awards, "Life Events" with the golden signboard of Chen Fei stands out and is undoubtedly an excellent publicity and promotion film!
Moreover, the thematic depth of "Life Events" itself is also a key factor in its winning the award.

The film's profound interpretation of the two eternal topics of "life" and "death" accurately fits the current special social environment and public psychology.

Under the shadow of the epidemic, people have thought more about the meaning and value of life.

This movie is like a mirror, reflecting the deep emotions and confusion of the public.

However, this award-winning film is not without flaws.

The next thing that may be criticized is that director Wen Muye is a newcomer.

When a new director wins the Golden Lion Award for his first work, it is inevitable that it will attract a lot of doubts and criticism from the outside world.

Fortunately, the jury awarded the Best Screenplay Award to Chen Fei, which undoubtedly added a strong layer of protection for the film and the director.

After all, Chen Fei holds a very important position in the international film industry, and he is also a grand slam director who has won the three major European awards.

Even if the script he wrote was handed over to an inexperienced newcomer to direct, the quality of the film would definitely not be bad.

In this way, it seems natural that "Life Events" won the Golden Lion Award.

And the rumors that may arise will also be reduced a lot.

While eating breakfast, Chen Fei was paying attention to many developments on the Internet.

Looking around, all major entertainment media and marketing accounts are currently focusing on the fact that "Life Events" won the Golden Lion Award.

The relevant press release has already been spread all over the Internet.

In the comment section below, most of the netizens’ comments are based on “praise”.

"This Wen Muye seems to have followed Director Chen for a long time. He can be considered a student taught by him personally, right?"

"I just checked. He has been the assistant director since Dying to Survive. Then he was the assistant director or executive director for films like The Assassination of Novelist and Where the Wind Runs. He has indeed been learning from Director Chen for a long time."

"Tsk tsk? A player who has accumulated a lot of experience and has a lot of experience!"

"My ability has reached that level, plus the script was written by Director Chen himself, and the subject matter is also advantageous, so it is only natural that I won the Golden Lion."

"It looks like this Life Event will be the grand slam winner at the 2nd Longteng Shengshi International Film Festival next month."

"I'm very curious now, what will happen to the 33rd Golden Rooster Awards? Last year it was a big one, are they going to have another big one this year?"

As soon as he saw the word "Golden Rooster", Fade Chen couldn't help but want to laugh.

Since July 7, the Golden Rooster Organizing Committee has been communicating with Feiyue Films, hoping to get "Life Events" registered for the competition.

But Chen Fei ignored them at all, and Su Guohai simply left aside those guys who came to act as middlemen.

it's good now.

"Life Events" won the Golden Lion Award, but it is still not on the list of Golden Rooster Awards.

Those who are in the know know that there are many conflicts between the two sides, and those gentlemen are all very arrogant, so Chen Fei simply ignores them.

But those who are not in the know still think that the Golden Rooster Awards are suppressing high-quality domestic films and only awarding awards to some bad films that no one has ever heard of.

You don't have to guess to know that the group of old men must be so frustrated that their faces are red and their necks are thick, and they are so angry that they are cursing.

The fact is just as Chen Fei expected. Some people in the Golden Rooster Organizing Committee group have already started to complain:

"I just wonder, why are there always these troublemakers who don't respond to calls? Don't they have the word 'unity' in their heads?"

"Our associations are completely useless against those people from Feiyue Film and Television. Where should we put our dignity and prestige?"

"I will report this situation to the bureau at the next meeting. We cannot let them continue like this."

"The status of the association cannot be challenged..."

"Look, the list of the main competition unit and judges for the 2nd Longteng Shengshi International Film Festival has been announced."

"Life Events, Solid as a Rock, Boundary Breaker, The Alcohol Project... David Lynch, Ning Hao, Gong Li, Zhang Manyu..."

"grass!"

With the announcement of the list of the main competition unit of the 2nd Longteng Shengshi International Film Festival and the list of jury members, the Golden Rooster Award, which was already preparing to start building momentum, has become wilful again.

They really wanted to show off, but unfortunately they met Chen Fei, a guy who didn't play by the rules or common sense.

During the National Day holiday, the popularity of the Longteng Shengshi International Film Festival will surely rise again!

Then after the National Day, the Golden Rooster Awards ceremony will be held next month.

By comparing the two sides like this, it is immediately clear who is superior and who is inferior!
"You have really offended those people in the association. They are almost pissed off to death. I am receiving phone calls complaining about you."

When Chen Fei received the call from Han Sanping, he finally couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Hahaha, Mr. Han, please don't tell me, someone asked you to be a lobbyist?"

“You really guessed it right, but I’m not interested in being a lobbyist. I just came here to ask about the progress of the filming of ‘Changjin Lake’?
I heard that the filming of "King Kong River" is almost finished, and someone from above has told me to give the green light all the way."

"So fast?" Fade Chen couldn't help but be stunned.

"Changjin Lake" has only finished shooting 1.4/3, and it's not even halfway done yet.

But the filming of "King Kong River" which started not long ago is almost finished? !
Good guy!
What kind of speed is this?

I wonder if Guan Hu, Feng Xiaogang and Zhang Yibai have rockets under their feet?
"Who knows? Maybe they work in three shifts and keep filming non-stop."

Han Sanping didn't think much about it, since the movie had nothing to do with him anyway.

In comparison, he is more interested in "Changjin Lake".

Because he read every word of the script written by Chen Fei. If this story can be filmed, the scale and scale will be unprecedented in the history of Chinese mainstream films!

"I will probably finish filming here by the end of the year. There are some scenes that take place after winter, and we have to shoot in accordance with the actual environment. We can't use a studio..."

"Okay, got it."

After chatting for more than ten minutes, Chen Fei ended the call with Han Sanping, put down his chopsticks, and went straight to the filming site of "Changjin Lake".

With his help, Guo Fan felt much more relaxed.

One of them watched the monitor while the other watched the scene, and with the help of several assistant directors and the executive director, they managed to eliminate many mistakes as much as possible.

At the same time, all the members of the "Life Events" crew successfully caught the nearest flight and returned to Yanjing.

Zhu Yilong was already a top star, and now the movie he starred in has won the Golden Lion Award. There were so many fans who came to pick him up at the airport.

In addition to Zhao Liying's fans, there are also many media and reporters...

The airport exit was completely blocked!
"Everyone, please don't push, make way for other passengers, we can go outside for interviews." "Everyone, there are children here, please don't push, those who want to take pictures can go outside."

"We won't leave. Let's talk about it when we get to the door..."

After some effort, the crew of "Life Events" finally broke through the siege and came out.

The bodyguards separated the media, fans and creators into two sides.

"Director Wen, first of all, congratulations on winning the Golden Lion Award. How are you feeling now?"

“Of course I’m very happy and excited.”

Wen Muye took out the golden lion to show off, which attracted a lot of media attention.

"What do you want to say to those who have questioned you online before?"

This statement seems to add fuel to the fire.

If Wen Muye was like Feng Xiaogang, a man with a bad temper, he might have started to attack on the spot and angrily criticized those people in the circle who had previously mocked him.

However, facing the media's camera, he smiled brightly, "They threw mud at me, I used it to plant lotus; they threw stones at me, I used them to build small buildings.

What if I wait until the high-rise buildings are built and the lotus flowers bloom, and then I go to see those people who mocked me in the past? "

After saying this, Wen Muye raised the Golden Lion trophy in his hand high up.

Under the sunlight, the golden trophy reflected an extremely bright light, as if burning all the stinky rats in the darkness into ashes!

"That's right!"

Someone in the crowd shouted this, which immediately triggered shouts and cheers from the people around him:

"Come on, Director Wen."

"If anyone disagrees, they can go to Venice and win a Golden Lion. Let's see if they have what it takes."

"They are just a bunch of stinky rats. Apart from making a few noises, what else can they do?"

The news that "Life Events" won the Golden Lion Award in Venice has undoubtedly become the hottest topic in the film and television industry, and it has been on the hot search list for several days.

At the same time, movies such as "Assassination of Novelist", "My Hometown and Me", "The Vanguard", and "Jiang Ziya", which will be released on the National Day, are also advancing their publicity and roadshow activities in an orderly manner.

On the other hand, the "good news" that the total box office of "Boundary Breaker" exceeded 40 billion was also announced by Feiyue Films.

For a time, the slogan "The film market has completely recovered" attracted the attention and recognition of countless people.

But at this moment, a "big joke" suddenly emerged in the TV drama circle.

This is mainly because of a crime suspense drama "Skyscraper".

Originally, the plot of this drama was quite good, and the producers could have attracted the audience's attention by relying on the solid plot structure and the acting skills of the leading actors.

However, I don’t know what the producers were thinking, but they actually brought Yang Ying in for the promotion!
Looking around, a large number of media and marketing accounts suddenly started praising Yang Ying's crying scenes.

A large number of press releases were praising how brilliant Yang Ying's crying scenes were in the drama. From the delicate delivery of emotions to the precise control of the tears falling, all of them were praised to the sky.

The emergence of this publicity strategy instantly focused all public opinion on the drama on Yang Ying's crying performance.

As soon as the news came out, it immediately caused a huge uproar on the Internet.

Especially those who had doubts about Yang Ying's acting skills before, especially those passers-by who had the impression that she could only stare when acting, showed puzzled expressions after seeing the overwhelming publicity.

"What the hell? Yang Tianbao has become an acting star? Are you kidding me?"

"No? Wait a minute? Is Yang Ying also qualified to market her eye contact and crying scenes? How much money did you all get from these marketing accounts?"

"Pfft, if I hadn't actually watched Skyscraper, I would have believed it."

"When that dead fish-eye girl started crying, I was scared. She didn't cry as well as other children."

"I'll give a fair review here. The plot is pretty good, but Yang Ying's acting is... I advise everyone not to believe in marketing accounts. They are pure scams."

Suddenly, a wave of sarcasm emerged on the Internet.

On the other hand, Yang Ying's fan group also took quick action.

With their love and support for their idols, they spare no effort to publicize their idols' "progress" on the Internet.

Some people even directly dug out clips of Yang Ying's past works for comparison, listing various details to prove her rapid progress in acting, and claiming that her crying scenes were a major breakthrough in her acting career and the result of continuous polishing of her acting skills.

The voices of both sides were heard one after another on the Internet, and neither side gave in.

One side questioned that it was over-marketing and unworthy of the reputation, while the other side supported the idol's hard work and success and deserved praise.

A drama that should have relied on its crime suspense plot and overall quality to speak for itself has been embroiled in a fierce war of words because of this unique publicity route.

However, the quality of the series itself and other highlights have been overshadowed by this public outcry, which is truly regrettable and puzzling.

"Logically speaking, the producers of Skyscraper shouldn't be so stupid, right? If they really wanted traffic, they could just roll out the sliced ​​videos on a large scale and rely on quality, right?

Looking at the noise and heated discussions online, Zeng Jia, who is currently in the crew of "The Legend of the Pearl", could not hide her doubts.

Yang Mi, who was standing by, suddenly had an idea. "Do you think this is a marketing press release that Yang Ying paid for herself?"

"It's possible! Very likely!" Zeng Jia reacted immediately. "Only she can do this kind of marketing operation that only praises herself and doesn't even mention the names of other actors in the same crew."

"But isn't she afraid of offending the producers? If she does this, she will probably disrupt their promotional arrangements, right?"

"Huang Xiaoming is standing behind her. What is there to be afraid of? Isn't it always like this? If she causes trouble, Huang Xiaoming will handle it for her."

When saying this, Yang Mi still felt a little envious.

A woman is undoubtedly very lucky if she can find a suitable man with similar values, interests and the ability to help each other.

From a woman's perspective, Yang Mi is actually very envious of Yang Ying.

But, from the perspective of an actor or even capital, what Yang Ying did was so stupid that it could make people cry!
Huang Xiaoming has been following her around to clean up her mess all year round, truly bringing out the "Fei Yangyang" attribute to the extreme!

However, what Yang Mi didn't know was that Huang Xiaoming was furious on the phone at this moment, cursing at Yang Ying.

"I ask you? Are you an idiot? Ah! Tell me! Is your brain confused? Or did you not get the Sinovac vaccine? How could you do such a stupid thing?"

Huang Xiaoming was really angry!

He never expected that Yang Ying would buy such a marketing notice for him without even saying hello.

There are also "crying scenes are comparable to Zhang Manyu", "explosions are comparable to Gong Li", "no less inferior to Liu Yifei"...

These marketing press releases made Huang Xiaoming's eyes go dark after reading them, and he lost all mood to film!

This has really offended the producers!

The most important thing is that this is a project invested by Tencent Pictures. If Yang Ying's behavior affects the performance, he will probably have to apologize in person.

The more Huang Xiaoming thought about it, the more aggrieved he felt. The resentment of being a good person almost made him faint.

However, Yang Ying showed absolutely no sympathy for him at all.

"You scolded me? Huang Xiaoming! You actually scolded me! I'm your wife! How could you scold me with such vicious words?"

As soon as these words were spoken, Huang Xiaoming immediately realized that all his earnest advice had been in vain.

The collision between the "rationalists" and the "emotionalists" will never solve any problems, but will instead intensify the conflicts.

If it were in the past, Huang Xiaoming could still persuade himself to calm down and find a way to patiently explain the problem to Yang Ying.

But today, he didn't want to continue doing this.

After years of praise and support, Yang Ying turned into a fool and a hopeless person.

In that case, it would be better for her to stay at home and avoid causing trouble.

"I'm telling you, starting today! I won't introduce you to any more resources. Just stay home and reflect on yourself. When you've figured it out, come and tell me..."

“Haha.” Yang Ying sneered and interrupted, “Do you think I can’t survive without you? If you don’t introduce me to any resources, then I’ll find them myself. I’ll go out and drink with directors and investors! I don’t believe that I can’t even find a role!”

"You can try. Since I, Huang Xiaoming, want to suppress you, even if you sell yourself out, you won't be able to find any role!"

"Okay! Okay! Okay! That's how you play, right?"

Of course Yang Ying knew that what Huang Xiaoming said was true.

If he didn't agree, she would never be able to find any role in Hong Kong or Taiwan, except to shoot AV in Japan.

"Then I will divorce you!"

When Yang Ying got angry, he didn't care about anything else and directly threw out the trump card.

On the other side of the phone, Huang Xiaoming, who had been suppressed for a long time, was completely furious!

"Okay, this is what you said, Yang Ying, don't regret it, after I finish filming this play, we will go back and leave, whoever doesn't go will be a grandson!"

"Oh, am I afraid of you?"

beep-

The phone was hung up directly. Yang Ying packed her luggage angrily and rushed to her mother's house with her child.

On the other hand, Huang Xiaoming, who was furious, called the lawyer directly and said, "Draw up a divorce agreement for me, do it as soon as possible, and also divide the property with Yang Ying, do it as soon as possible."

lawyer:"???"
