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

Chapter 1291 Sunk costs do not participate in major decisions!
Since it was the final scene, Chen Fei naturally had to go and take a look at the scene.

Come to think of it, he hadn't seen Jing Tian, ​​Shu Chang and Zhao Liying show off their acting skills for a long time.

"I wonder if they have made any progress in the past few years?"

Thinking about this, Fade Chen simply brought a small stool, sat behind the monitor, and watched with interest.

The last time I saw them perform was when they were filming "Where the Wind Is".

But there is actually nothing in that drama that requires great acting skills. After all, they are just some small daily scenes. You just need to perform according to the requirements of the characters in the script.

But it’s different with “Dream of Red Mansions”, because this play has quite high requirements on acting skills.

The villain Ouyang Xu was originally just a scholar who studied hard for many years just to get his name on the imperial examination one day.

Finally, his hard work paid off and he was ranked third in the high school entrance examination, with a bright future ahead of him!
But this guy insisted on imitating Chen Shimei and killed his beloved first as soon as he got ashore.

As the saying goes, he who harms his wife will never gain anything.

And this sentence is best verified in "Dreams of Splendor"!

It would have been bad enough if she had just suffered such bad luck, but after learning that her former lover had found someone else, she actually framed the male protagonist, Gu Qianfan, and had him put in jail.

After learning the truth, Pan'er, played by Jing Tian, ​​chose to find the scumbag to argue with him, but was tragically harmed by him and almost lost her life.

After these repeated attacks from behind, Pan'er finally couldn't stand this man's cruelty anymore, so she just broke up with him!
So, the scene in the whole play that required Jing Tian to show off his acting skills appeared.

In front of Kaifeng Prefecture in Bian Jing, the bronze Dengwen Drum glowed coldly in the twilight, and the mottled patterns on the drum seemed to be engraved with the blood and tears of countless wronged people.

Jing Tian stood in front of the drum in a plain dress, her hair casually tied up with a wooden hairpin, but there was a determined fire burning in her eyes.

This case was of great importance, and she knew that only by sounding the drum of complaint could she seek justice for herself and her sisters.

The Dengwen Drum is of great significance. Any case in which the drum is beaten to appeal for justice can reach the emperor's ears directly. It is the last hope for the lower-class people to fight against the powerful.

However, there have always been strict rules for appealing to a higher level.

That is: whoever beats the drum must first be punished with twenty strokes of the cane!

"Boom-thump-thump-"

The sound of drums resounded throughout the square in front of Kaifeng Prefecture, startling the crows perched on the eaves.

As the drum sounded, the bailiffs surrounded Pan'er like wolves and tigers and took him to the execution ground.

The rough surface of the cane was covered with cracks, traces left by years of blood.

"Zhao Paner, you appealed beyond the proper level. According to the law, you should be punished with twenty strokes of the cane!" The voice of the bailiff was as cold as iron.

Jing Tian straightened his back and slowly knelt on the torture bench. He swept his eyes across the crowd, which were either curious or sympathetic, and a stubborn arc appeared at the corner of his mouth.

The first blow of the stick fell hard, and the intense pain instantly overwhelmed her like a surging tide, and the clothes on her back were instantly soaked with cold sweat.

But she bit her lower lip so hard that she didn't even cry out in pain.

The second and third blows followed, each one seeming to crush her bones.

Beads of sweat the size of beans appeared on her forehead, slid down her cheeks and dripped onto the cold ground.

But the images of her good sister and loved one being humiliated kept appearing in her mind, and the anger in her heart grew stronger and stronger, supporting her to hold on.

As the stick fell mercilessly one after another, her back was already a bloody mess, and the blood soaked through her thin clothes and flowed down the torture bench.

There were occasional exclamations and sighs from the crowd; some couldn't bear to watch and turned their heads away, while others were secretly worried for her.

But her eyes remained as firm as ever.

"These twenty strokes of the cane are not only physical pain, but also for justice, to clear my name and that of my sister!"

With her strong willpower, she managed to get through it.

After twenty strokes of the cane, Jing Tian was trembling all over, but he was trying hard not to fall down.

She raised her head with difficulty and looked towards the gate of Kaifeng Prefecture, her eyes full of indomitable spirit and persistence.

At this moment, she is like a rose blooming proudly in the wind and rain, using her tenacity and courage to interpret her unremitting pursuit of justice!

"Push a close-up of the eye scene here." The director shouted excitedly from behind the monitor.

An actor's eye acting is usually the most important part of a play's quality.

Excellent eye acting is a code of empathy that transcends language. Without the need for dialogue, it allows the audience to penetrate the character's skin and touch the softest or hardest corners of his or her heart.

And when the actors inject delicate emotions into their eyes, whether sad and timid, or resolute as iron, or cunning and smart, those flowing eye waves can be smoothly transformed into leaping notes, perfectly resonating with the melody of the plot and composing a moving music in the hearts of the audience.

It is this ever-changing tension in the eyes that can transform flat text into three-dimensional, vivid life, injecting the series with an artistic depth that can withstand repeated savoring, and making every frame an eternal mark engraved deep in the audience's memory.

"Transition! Transition!"

As this scene ended, the crew became busy again, and the actors began to change their makeup, preparing to shoot the final ending moment.

Song Yinzhang, who was born as a musician, successfully became a pipa teacher and finally got rid of her status as a slave.

Sanniang, who came from a butcher's family, married Du Changfeng in a grand ceremony wearing a phoenix coronet and a bridal robe.

After going through many hardships, Zhao Pan'er and Gu Qianfan finally got a happy ending.

"I declare that the filming of "Dream of Hualu" has officially finished~"

Liu Yifei stood at the Bianjing Bridge, holding up a loudspeaker, and loudly shouted the slogan of completing the filming.

This is the new drama after "La La Land" and "Where the Wind Goes", in which she personally serves as producer and supervisor, and follows the entire filming process without any assistance from anyone.

Now that we have successfully completed the filming, the sense of accomplishment is so strong.

Chen Fei had previously suggested that she find some professional producers to help her, but she verbally refused and said that she could do it herself.

And now it turns out that she can.

This feeling of going from weak to strong, from clumsy to proficient, is so cool!
"Congratulations to producer Liu, another new drama has finished filming."

Chen Fei took the cake from his assistant with a smile and handed it to Liu Yifei personally.

"Huh? You also prepared a cake?"

Liu Yifei blew out the candle with surprise on her face, and her crystal clear eyes were filled with a gentle smile like water.

"Of course, there will be a wrap-up party after returning to Beijing, which will be held together with the wrap-up party for "Changjin Lake" and the celebration parties for "Assassination of Novelist" and "Life Events."

Hearing this, Liu Yifei couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"You really know how to save trouble. You have moved the celebration banquets and wrap-up banquets of four TV series together at once. The beautiful lady will definitely complain about your laziness again when the time comes."

"How great is this? It saves us the trouble. I'm tired of having banquets every day."

As the two were talking, Shu Chang sneaked over, grabbed a handful of cream and smeared it all over one side of Liu Yifei's cheek.

"Ah! Chang Chang!"

"Hey, happy celebration of the finale~"

"Don't run, Tiantian! Liying! Hold her down for me!"

Liu Yifei naturally would not swallow her anger, so she grabbed a handful of cream and rushed out.

She wants revenge!

……

"Yesterday, the female costume inspirational drama "Dream of Hualu", exclusively produced by Feiyue Films, with Liu Yifei and Jiang Xuerou as producers/general producers, and starring Shu Chang, Jing Tian, ​​Zhao Liying and others, was officially announced to be completed."

"This morning, Feiyue Films' official Weibo account released a notice: The contemporary group portrait drama "Wind Blows Half Summer", adapted from A Nai's novel "Not Reborn", has been officially approved.

The play mainly tells the story of entrepreneurs headed by Xu Banxia who actively explored and dared to innovate in the wave of reform and opening up; actress Zhao Liying will play the leading female role of 'Xu Banxia' in the play.

"The official Weibo account of "Ghost Blows Out the Light: Return to the South Sea" released an announcement: Welcome Shirley Yang @Shu Chang's official return."

For the entire morning, all the hot searches on the Internet were dominated by Feiyue Film and Television's news release, attracting the attention of countless netizens.

On the crew of "The Legend of the Pearl", Yang Mi looked at the news online and couldn't hide her envy.

"Liu Yifei's filming of Dream of Red Mansions has just finished, and Zhao Liying has taken on a drama with a strong female lead. Shu Chang has even returned to the Ghost Blows Out the Light series of movies. These resources are really great!"

"Our drama 'Lady of the Pearl' is not bad either. You are the leading actress, and you are also the heroine..."

Zeng Jia was talking on and on beside him, but her tone could not hide her dejection.

Compared with Feiyue Film and Television?

Not to mention Jiaxing, even if there were ten companies of a similar size to Jiaxing, they would not be able to compare with or shake Feiyue Films in the slightest!

Therefore, Zeng Jia could only change her tone and say, "You are freer than them and earn more."

"Really?"

Yang Mi suddenly turned around and stared at Zeng Jia with her big eyes.

Zeng Jia was a little afraid to look at her for a moment and subconsciously looked away.

"Am I free?"

Yang Mi also withdrew her gaze and whispered softly, with a complex and lost tone in her voice. She just didn't want to accept the fact that after years of hard work, spending countless youth and energy, she still failed to achieve the goal of listing.

But that doesn't mean she's a fool.

Jiaxing’s future is already clearly visible.

The goal of "going public" did not get closer because of her efforts, but instead became further and further away. In recent years, even its shadow could not be seen.

She’s been thinking a lot lately about the phrase “sunk costs don’t play a role in major resolutions.”

But she had sunk too much, and even if she had ideas and goals, it was difficult to implement them at once.

At this moment, after noticing the change in Yang Mi's mood, Zeng Jia was suddenly shocked and had an inexplicable feeling that the situation was out of her control.

"No, we have to keep her busy. We can't let her think too much!"

While secretly making up her mind, she said, "I won't disturb you from filming for now," and then walked away quickly.

She had originally thought that she could gradually reduce the resources invested in Yang Mi and put more resources into the newcomers of the company.

But now it seems that this operation obviously won't work.

Not to mention whether the newcomers can handle the resources, the most critical issue now is that Yang Mi, who is gradually becoming more idle, actually starts to have wild thoughts!

This is not a good sign.

Once she had other ideas, Jiaxing would most likely be in trouble.

After working so hard for so long, how could Zeng Jia be willing to see this situation?

……

capital.

The premiere of "Rock Solid".

Chen Fei really didn't expect that after he asked Su Guohai to reject the invitation from China Film, Jiao Hongfen actually came to him in person today and talked to him again about inviting him to be a director.

“If you have time, Mr. Chen, why not go to China Film and have a chat. I will tell you about the details of the project “My Fathers and Me”.

In my opinion, this theme is even better than "My Country, My Parents" and "My Hometown and I". The intentions of the three are completely different..."

Jiao Hongfen is also anxious now.

The disastrous failure of "The Battle at Lake Changjin" directly led to the bureau's dissatisfaction with him, so much so that they promoted Fu Ruoqing.

If the film and television projects he invests in next still fail to gain recognition from the outside world and have difficulty achieving good results, then he will be in big trouble!
Now, the only film he can rely on and has the greatest chance of success is "My Fathers and Me".

So we have to find some strong directors.

And Chen Fei is undoubtedly the best choice!

Unfortunately, his abacus beads were placed in the wrong place.

"Mr. Jiao, I'm really sorry. I still need to take charge of the overall situation of "Changjin Lake", so I really don't have extra time to contact new projects."

"Guo Fan..."

"The Wandering Earth 2 is about to start, and he is busier than me now."

Ok? !

Jiao Hongfen's eyes suddenly lit up.

"The Wandering Earth 2"?
This is good stuff!
If China Film Corporation had the opportunity to participate, even without "My Fathers and Me", he would be able to stand up straight in front of his superiors.

However, before he could even open his mouth, Fade Chen said with a smile, "The project investment division has been completed, and the script and project book will be submitted for review soon."

In an instant, the light in Jiao Hongfen's eyes suddenly dimmed.

"Well...well, I'll go ask the others."

These are actually the root causes of the trouble left by La Peikang.

Although he had tried to remedy the situation before.

But the facts have proved that his remedy had no positive effect at all, but instead had a huge negative effect.

In the name of the association, he hopes to win over Chen Fei and Feiyue Films. Isn't this courting death?

……

At 11 o'clock sharp, the premiere screening of "Rock Solid" officially kicked off.

Because he had already seen the finished film in advance, Chen Fei did not put too much energy and attention into watching it, but instead chatted with Wang Changtian next door.

“How much can I get for making this movie?”

"About 47%." Wang Changtian said, but his eyes swept over Jiao Hongfen not far away, and then whispered: "Most of the screenings of "Solid as a Rock" were snatched from "King Kong River"."

Chen Fei couldn't help but laugh.

The movie "King Kong River" was really miserable. On the sixth day of its release, the single-day box office had dropped to 3200 million.

If this continues for a few more days, it might hit a new low.

However, I think that after a while, all major departments should organize people to watch it. After all, this is still a political mission film.

According to Chen Fei's guess, this movie will probably only earn around 10 billion at the box office.

No matter how many there are, it is absolutely impossible for them to rush up.

After all, those units alone cannot support such a mainstream commercial blockbuster.

"Oh, right." Wang Changtian suddenly remembered something and asked curiously, "Did Guan Hu go to Feiyue Films to solicit investment?"

"No." Fade Chen was slightly stunned and asked curiously, "Did that guy write a script again?"

Wang Changtian nodded, "Yes, it's another mainstream movie called "Revolutionary", written for the 100th anniversary of the founding of the Party."

"The main theme again?"

Chen Fei was a little speechless. Why did this guy suddenly go against the main theme?

After "Eight Hundred" came "King Kong River", and then "Revolutionary" came again.

Do you really think that "main theme movies" are a big fat sheep?

It would be fine if he just pulled it once or twice, but why did he keep jumping on it and pulling it? Isn’t he afraid that the lamb will kick him?

"Did the light pick up?"

"How could I possibly take on his project!" Wang Changtian straightened up immediately.

He knew that Chen Fei and Guan Hu had always been at odds with each other.

Under such circumstances, how could Guangguang offend Chen Fei for a main-theme script that seemed to have no highlights?

Isn't this stupid behavior?

However, what the two of them didn't know was that there were actually quite a lot of idiots.

For example, Dong Ping from Huanxi Media.

While others were trying to avoid Guan Hu, he, on the contrary, set out a table full of delicious food and wine, and happily invited Guan Hu over, treating him as a guest of honor.

He has always wanted to expand the alliance of the big directors camp, but looking around, there are only a few famous directors in the circle, and everyone has his own camp.

But now, because of "The Battle at Lake Changjin", Guan Hu's subsequent cooperation with China Film Group has come to an end.

Jiao Hongfen didn't dare to use him anymore, and even didn't dare to ask him to direct the unit plot in "My Fathers and Me", for fear that something might go wrong.

In this situation, Guan Hu inexplicably felt like a rat crossing the street.

However, what he never expected was that under the current situation, the true mentor of his steed actually appeared and saved him from the dire straits!

"Director, come on, let's have a drink, hahaha."

Dong Ping raised his glass enthusiastically and said cheerfully: "I have read the project of "Revolutionary", it is very well written and is not inferior to the previous "Eight Hundred".

Since no one is willing to invest in your project, don’t blame me, Dong Ping, for taking the initiative and scooping up this pearl covered in dust.”

Hearing this, Guan Hu was very happy.

"Come on, let's have a drink. Mr. Dong has good taste. He has a keen eye for talent. Hahaha."

The two of them toasted each other for quite a while.

Finally, Guan Hu couldn't help but ask, "So, can I direct this script?"

"Of course!" Dong Ping said without hesitation: "Your script is naturally in your hands."

Guan Hu was overjoyed when he heard this.

But at this moment, Dong Ping suddenly asked, "I wonder if Director Guan is interested in our Huanxi Media's big directors' alliance?"

Guan Hu's eyes lit up, and he nodded hurriedly, "Of course!"
