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

Chapter 1313 The last carnival in the traffic circle?

"You two have nothing else to do right now anyway!"

Facing the gazes from Chen Fei and Liu Yifei, Han Jianu said firmly, "Sister Yifei is going to be my assistant director, so why not play a cameo role as well? This way, you can experience the creative process more deeply.

And I noticed that your fans have been looking forward to your new works... You haven't taken any roles in a long time, so just take this as some fun.

Senior brother, you too, apart from that TV series last year, think carefully, how long has it been since you last acted in a movie? After all, you are a professional actor, don’t you want to take this opportunity to give back to your fans…”

Chen Fei interrupted her endless chatter and said, "Your excuse is too far-fetched. Can you at least be more thoughtful when making excuses? Are you just pretending that the movie "Borderbreaker" that I starred in last year didn't exist?"

"I don't care! You two must agree to perform today, otherwise... otherwise I will quit and leave!"

Seeing that nothing she could say was of any use, Han Jianu became so anxious that she stamped her feet and simply started to act like a rogue.

Chen Fei suddenly didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

Liu Yifei couldn't help laughing, and a smile appeared on her lips: "I don't mind. I have to follow the crew all the way anyway, so it doesn't matter if I play a cameo role."

She really hadn't been involved in film shooting for a long time, so she took this opportunity to relax.

Han Jianu, who was pouting, suddenly had bright eyes. She fixed her scorching gaze on Fade Chen and threatened him viciously, "Your wife has already nodded. Is there any problem with you?"

"What if I don't agree?" Fade Chen raised his eyebrows, deliberately teasing her.

Han Jia crossed her arms and raised her chin slyly: "Then I won't be polite! After the filming starts, I will add scenes for your wife every day, shouting 'cut' over and over again, and torment her as much as I can!"

Chen Fei almost couldn't hold back his laughter. This little girl actually wanted to control him?

"If you really dare to do that," he deliberately dragged out the last word, unable to hide the smile in his eyes, "I will arrange for Wen Muye to follow up on the new project abroad, so that you two won't see each other for a year."

Han Jianu's eyes widened instantly, with a look of "you are cruel" written all over her face, and she was speechless for a moment.

"Hahaha."

Liu Yifei covered her mouth and smiled, looking at Han Jia's angry look, she hurried over and tugged at Chen Fei's sleeve, "Hubby, stop teasing her. If you keep making trouble, be careful that they will secretly pack their bags and elope."

"Humph!"

Han Jia turned her head and looked out the window. Although she didn't say anything, her bright eyes were always fixed on Chen Fei.

Fade Chen waved his hands helplessly: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore, I agree."

"yeah!"

A smile flashed in Han Jia's eyes. She immediately made a victory gesture, grabbed the script on the table and rushed to the door.

We have to run away quickly. What if these two people change their minds?
"Hey? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Chen Fei looked at Han Jianu's back and wanted to ask about the next preparation plan.

"I'll go see my dad to review the script first. Strike while the iron is hot!" Han Jianu shouted without turning her head.

"be careful on the road!"

Before Chen Fei finished his words, there was a bang and the office door slammed shut.

There was no response in the echo of the empty door.

He shook his head, not knowing whether to laugh or cry: "This girl is so impetuous and impetuous, how can she be a girl at all?"

"That's just the way they are. They can't change." Liu Yifei chuckled as she helped organize the documents on the table.

Chen Fei raised his eyebrows and said jokingly, "When she gets married, Wen Muye will probably be taken advantage of. Maybe he will become a henpecked man again."

Thinking of this, the image of Ning Hao being "controlled" by his wife emerged in his mind, and he couldn't help laughing out loud.

In order to avoid the task of paying public taxes every day, Director Ning actually got a bed and lived directly in the company.

It's really painstaking!

Liu Yifei smiled so hard that her eyebrows curved into crescents. She tapped his chest with her fingertips and said, "You're still laughing at others? Why? Aren't you afraid of your wife?"

Before he finished speaking, Fade Chen reached out and took her into his arms.

"Of course I am afraid. I'm afraid I won't be able to see you when I open my eyes in the morning..."

He deliberately dragged out the last word, lowered his head and bit her red earlobe lightly, while his other hand slowly tightened along her waistline.

Liu Yifei pushed him away with a trembling voice, but he grabbed her wrist and held her in his arms.

When that aggressive kiss came down, her struggles immediately turned into soft whimpers: "It's broad daylight, someone will see us."

"It's okay. You have to knock on the door to enter my office." Chen Fei's hoarse voice was wrapped in a burning breath. "Let's go to the lounge inside."

Liu Yifei didn't say anything more, but just grabbed his collar with her fingertips and was picked up sideways while her breathing was disordered.

The door of the inner lounge was ajar at first, but it swayed slightly with the sound of footsteps, and finally closed with a "click", completely isolating the outside room.

…………

In the next few days, Chen Fei almost went back and forth between home, company and home.

Although he has no new projects at hand for the time being, he cannot sit idle.

There are so many company affairs that need to be handled, and then there are the companies he invested in, including the business of Longxiang Capital, which he has to personally take care of from time to time.

At the same time, the revelations and gossips in the circle have never stopped.

Many people did not expect that a certain older female star was once again involved in a leaking incident in recent days!
This time it was not her personally, but the company she invested in that was reported by real name, suspected of evading high-tax personal income tax through illegal activities.

Although the older actress urgently withdrew from the shareholder circle in the shortest time possible, she was still a shareholder during the critical time when the company was reported for financial fraud, which attracted the attention of many people.

Many netizens are speculating that if the illegal activities of the company in which she was involved are confirmed to be true, will she face more severe punishment?
And this time, will there be a "No. 2 Jiang Wen" like the one who helped her back then to help her resolve the crisis?
You know, as early as the 90s, she had trouble with tax issues and was criminally detained for 422 days.

Although she was not prosecuted in the end due to insufficient evidence, this experience became a huge stain on her life.

If she gets into trouble again because of a similar situation, she will really end up like Fan Bayi and suffer the consequences of being "disgraced"!
As the old saying goes, speak of the devil and he will appear!
Just one night later, a lot of news about Fan Bingbing suddenly came back on the Internet.

“Recently, the highly anticipated Hollywood action blockbuster “355” officially wrapped up, bringing a long and exciting filming journey to a successful conclusion.

The film is directed by Simon Kinberg and brings together five international film stars: Fan Bingbing, Jessica Chastain, Diane Kruger, Lupita Nyong'o and Penelope Cruz! "

“The story of 355 revolves around top female agents from around the world who work together across cultural and political divides to carry out difficult missions in order to stop global organizations from acquiring dangerous weapons.”

"Fan Bingbing plays an important role in the film, Wang Li, a brave and intelligent female agent. This is also another challenging role in her acting career..."

Although he has been involved in quite a bit of controversy, it has to be said that Fan Bingbing's fan appeal is still amazing.

As soon as the news of the completion of "355" came out, a large number of fans instantly flocked to the super topic, and the number of readings of the topic exceeded million within half an hour!

Someone made exquisite character posters overnight, mixing "Wang Li"'s agent look with Fan Bingbing's past classic roles, and posted them on social platforms with passionate BGM.

Some fans also spontaneously translated reports from the outside world and compiled them into long posts with pictures and text, analyzing the highlights of the role one by one to prove her status as an "international movie star."

Some die-hard fans even launched a "Protect Wang Li" campaign, calling on fans to update the topic on overseas social media and use terms such as "#范冰兵355" and "#王丽超A" to trend in multiple countries.

Some big fans even organized a fund-raising campaign and planned to put up a giant screen advertisement in New York's Times Square to celebrate the box office success of "355" in advance.

Chen Fei also noticed that in the Weibo comment area, many fans kept posting:
"Sister deserves it!", "Hollywood is her home court!", "International style"!
This massive support made many passers-by feel emotional.

Unexpectedly, even after experiencing a low point, Fan Bingbing's fan base and cohesion are still not to be underestimated!

"These domestic fans are really hard to understand," Liu Yifei sighed softly, leaning on Chen Fei's arms, her fingertips unconsciously stroking his cuffs.

"Tax evasion is such a serious principle issue, but it seems that they are not a big deal. For example, Zheng Shuang has already committed a crime, but her fans are still jumping around online. I heard that they have formed a group to cyberbully her ex-boyfriend again."

Fade Chen reached out and tucked the hair that was scattered on her forehead behind her ears, and said softly: "Don't worry about that, we just need to make sure that nothing happens to us."

"I know." Under the warm yellow bedside lamp, Liu Yifei's brows were twisted with confusion: "I just can't figure it out, are they chasing after the real person, or the perfect illusion in their hearts?" "Soon..."

"Huh? What's coming soon?"

"If my guess is correct, the traffic circle has entered the final carnival period of the first phase."

"???"

Liu Yifei's eyes were full of confusion, but Chen Fei just looked out the window without saying a word.

He knows very well that in this morbid era of traffic, fans actually don’t care what the idols on the screen look like.

What they really care about is just a grand self-projection!

When the pressure and confusion of real life have nowhere to vent, idols become a utopia that carries all fantasies.

In their minds, idols are perfect lovers, inspirational role models, and outlets for their emotions.

Therefore, as long as the celebrity's personality is glamorous enough, the truth about those illegal and immoral acts can be blurred by filters and become "excusable."

It's like putting gold foil on a broken porcelain vase!

Fans would rather party with a thorny illusion than face the exposed cracks. After all, the moment the fantasy is punctured, what collapses is not only the halo of the idols, but also the spiritual pillars they have built with their own hands.

And once the spiritual pillar collapses completely and can never be repaired, the original love will inevitably turn into intense hatred!

By then, traffic will gradually become a derogatory term!

……

In a blink of an eye, it was January 4th.

As it's Friday, today should have been a prime time for new movies to be released.

If it were in the past, the lively scene would surely come as expected, the theaters would be crowded, and the box office figures would rise steadily...

However, today's cinema market presents a bleak picture.

Nine new movies, including Hollywood imports and domestic films, were released one after another. It should have been a fierce battle for the box office, but the reality was shocking.

On the morning of the 10th, the first day box office statistics were released, but the highest-grossing movie was only 350 million!
This number was like a heavy hammer, instantly shattering everyone's expectations.

The entire cinema market fell into shock and panic, as if the sky had fallen.

Wanda was still the first to react. In order to recover costs as quickly as possible, it did not hesitate to sell off related shares. A large number of assets were pushed into the market, further depressing the market price, so that a tense and uneasy atmosphere suddenly spread in the industry...

However, just when the market was in chaos, the film and television industry ushered in new news.

Brother Chen Kai’s new film has reached its final moments!
In fact, this should be something worth celebrating, but in the current environment where the cinema market is in a downturn, the news seems a bit bleak.

After all, his new film is just an art film, not a blockbuster commercial film, and it can't provide any assistance to theaters at all.

At the same time, the atmosphere of tension and anxiety is still spreading...

"Avatar, an action/science fiction film directed by James Cameron, was officially taken off the screen last night, and the re-released version grossed 1.77 million yuan."

"Due to the end of the key extension, the comedy film "Detective Chinatown 3" produced by Feiyue Films was officially taken off the screen, with a total box office of 68.83 billion yuan."

"The spy drama Eye of the Storm, starring Yang Mi, has finished its first run, with an average viewership rating of 2.312% and a single-day high of 2.609%. During the broadcast, the viewership ratings of both channels in 59 cities exceeded 2 multiple times, ranking among the top satellite TV stations..."

In fact, if "Detective Chinatown 3" wants to continue to apply for a key extension of one month or even two months, it is not difficult.

With the extremely high popularity and huge audience base accumulated during the Spring Festival, as long as Chen Fei nods, the long-term screening strategy of "Hello, Li Huanying" can be replicated, and the release date can be extended all the way to June.

However, looking at the declining curve on the background data panel day by day, he still rejected the proposal of the head of the operations department.

The film's single-day box office has now fallen below 150 million. Even if it manages to hold out through the long postponement period, it is still far from the 70 billion box office mark.

What's more, continuing to squeeze out the screening space and forcibly extending the screening period will undoubtedly attract the stigma of "excessive profit-seeking" and may also cause dissatisfaction among theaters and other film companies...

Why force it?
"Let's quit while we're ahead. Let's prepare a celebration banquet and invite all our partners over."

In the office, Chen Fei slowly closed the file, completely putting an end to "Detective Chinatown 3".

The spring sunlight outside the window slanted onto the desk, reflecting the clarity in his eyes.

Rather than bearing the infamy for the sake of profit, it would be better to let "Detective Chinatown 3" exit the stage with dignity with a box office of 68 billion, leaving an aftertaste for the audience and making more room for imagination for subsequent works.

That night, in the study, Chen Fei stroked the pen with his fingertips and wrote down a string of new words.

The story framework of "Detective Chinatown 1990" was quickly constructed and formed under his pen.

The bustling streets of Hong Kong in the 1990s and the intricate criminal connections, every detail was repeatedly refined in his mind.

It was not until late at night that Liu Yifei came and knocked on the door, and told him to go to bed in a reproachful tone, and only then did he put down his pen.

Before walking out of the study, he glanced at the calendar and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his lips.

In his opinion, if he can avoid the release schedule of "Nezha 2" and send "Detective Chinatown 1990" to the market ahead of time, he might be able to break the 70 billion box office mark and set a new milestone for domestic films!

"Go to bed quickly!"

Liu Yifei aimed at his waist and pinched it hard.

"Oh, murdering your husband?"

Chen Fei hugged her, got closer, and climbed to the top with his hands as if to play a trick.

……

In the evening of the next day, the crystal chandeliers of the State Guesthouse lit up one after another, and flashes of light went off one after another at the end of the red carpet.

At the celebration banquet for "Detective Chinatown 3", Chen Fei chatted and laughed with a group of partners while holding a glass of champagne.

No one noticed that the look in his eyes as he raised his glass and looked towards the stage was filled with an even more ardent ambition for his next work!

As the morning light once again spread over the city skyline, the turbulence in the cinema market finally subsided.

Several carefully planned film and television press releases began to spark heated discussions on major platforms like a stabilizing force.

"The crime film "The Accidental Murderer 2", produced by Feiyue Films and starring Xiao Yang, Zhou Xun, Zhang Songwen, and Liu Yijun, has officially been announced to be completed!"

"China Film Group announced the cast of the main theme disaster film "Peak Explosion", which will be co-starred by Zhu Yilong, Huang Zhizhong, Chen Shu and others."

"Huanxi Media released a notice: The main theme blockbuster "Revolutionary" directed by Guan Hu and co-starred by Zhang Tong, Ma Shaohua, Li Yifeng and Han Geng will officially start shooting today."

"The official Weibo account of "Miracle Stupid Kid" released a casting announcement. The film will be directed by Wen Muye and co-starred by Peng Yuchang, Yang Enyou, Tian Yu, Zhao Liying, and Tian Zhuangzhuang.

In this new film, Zhao Liying will once again challenge the role of a single mother. Let us look forward to her wonderful performance..."

One film project after another was completed or started, which made Feng Xiaogang, who was working on the post-production of the web drama "North Drift South", very envious.

During this period, he went to ask Wang Shuo for help several times, but the other party was still unwilling to write scripts for him.

The same goes for Liu Zhenyun, who seems to be afraid that if he gets associated with him, he will be in bad luck.

"Okay, okay, you all don't think highly of me, right? Then I'll show you that even without you guys, I, Feng Xiaogang, can still do a good job on the new project!"

Feeling indignant, he took out the draft paper he had prepared long ago and wrote down four big words in his spare time.

"If You Are the One 3"!
At the same time, "The Mermaid 2", which has gone through countless twists and turns, has finally entered the final stage of adding music and subtitles.

Zhou Xingchi looked at the film that was about to take shape in front of him, and a faint smile appeared on his face.

If nothing goes wrong, this masterpiece will be officially released by the end of this year!
