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

Chapter 1339: Thunder! Thunder! Thunder! Everything is thundering!

"Cao Jun plays Lu Lingfeng? Luo Jin plays Su Wuming? Li Yitong plays Pei Xijun? Meng Ziyi plays Yingtao?"

Chen Fei stared at the list of actors for "Strange Stories of the Tang Dynasty" in his hand, muttering to himself, with a curious gleam in his eyes.

Jiang Xueruo was not idle. He immediately took out his tablet and showed him the actor's audition video.

She first called up Cao Jun's audition clip.

"Director Chen, you see, his performance in action scenes is superb, which is an advantage that other popular actors do not have. The movement of swinging the sword is clean and neat, and the pride in his eyes is completely consistent with the temperament of the son of a general in the role."

In the video, Cao Jun's brows were slightly furrowed, and his roar revealed Lu Lingfeng's fierce momentum.

Fade Chen nodded slightly: "It's really good."

Jiang Xue rubbed her face and smiled, then clicked on Luo Jin's audition video: "Luo Jin's costume is very good, and his eye expression is also a plus point. He showed the character's wisdom and calmness very well."

When switching to Li Yitong's clip, she continued to add: "This girl is amazing! When she played Pei Xijun, she looked like an immortal when she picked up the brush to paint, but her eyes were firm when she talked about the case. She balanced the character's intelligence and infatuation very well during the audition."

Finally, she played Meng Ziyi's audition clip. "For the role of Cherry, Meng Ziyi played it herself! The fighting scenes were very realistic, and the lines were very spicy. During the audition, sparks flew when she acted opposite Luo Jin. It was not fake at all."

Fade Chen stared at the screen intently, nodding slightly from time to time.

After watching all the videos, he showed a satisfied smile on his face: "It's really good. The audition performances of these actors are quite interesting."

As he spoke, he did not forget to ask, "What does Wei Fenghua think? Has he seen the audition performances of these people?"

"I've seen it. Screenwriter Wei said he was quite satisfied with it."

"That's fine." Chen Fei waved his hand immediately, "Just follow this list. Keep an eye on it after filming starts. The subject matter of this project is quite good. It may even have the potential to become a hit drama."

"Okay, I understand."

Jiang Xue put away the document signed by Chen Fei and walked out quickly with the laptop in hand.

Chen Fei did not leave in a hurry, but read the email sent by Natasha.

As for Walton Pictures, films such as "Black Widow", "Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings", and "Venom 2" have already been released in North American theaters.

The results are pretty good.

Three months after the release of "Black Widow", the North American box office has successfully exceeded 3 million US dollars, and the global total box office has exceeded 2 million US dollars.

"Venom 2" has only been released for a week, and the North American box office has soared to 1.5 million US dollars, and the global total box office has exceeded 3 million US dollars.

As for "Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings", starring South Korean and everyday actors, it grossed $2.33 million in North America and $4.6 million worldwide after one month of release.

This movie has been successfully introduced to South Korea and Little Days, and local audiences love it very much and regard it as an honor!

Chen Fei really couldn't guess what they were thinking.

It clearly expresses some bad ideas implicitly. If this happened in China, it would be criticized to the point of becoming autistic!

But in their country, they are proud of it!
Has he really been completely domesticated?
Due to the impact of the epidemic, Walton Pictures has not released many films this year.

There will also be an "Eternals" and "Spider-Man: No Homecoming" later.

Apart from this, there are no other new projects this year.

There are still many projects to be released next year.

除了备受瞩目的《阿凡达2：水之道》外，还有《侏罗纪世界3》、《奇异博士2：疯狂多元宇宙》、《黑豹2》、《雷神4》等多部电影。

Marvel still maintains its high-quality and high-output work style, helping Walton Pictures to firmly maintain its position as the No. 1 of the new Hollywood Big Six!

As for the others, there is almost no chance of surpassing them.

Chen Fei had previously talked with Leonardo DiCaprio and Matt Damon. Both of them were very interested in getting in touch with Marvel, but more in-depth communication and negotiation were needed.

Natasha will take care of this part of the work.

With the current strength of Walton Pictures, I believe it should be able to offer generous conditions that are enough to impress both of them.

……

October 10th is another brand new Friday.

With the release of nine films including "Lanxin Theater" and "Turandot: The Curse of the Demons", the box office of "Changjin Lake" officially exceeded 9 billion yuan.

At this time, the movie had only been released for half a month!

The average daily box office revenue of 3 million yuan was enough to make Jiao Hongfen and Dong Ping go crazy with envy.

At the same time, the excellent performance of "Changjin Lake" also made Yu Dong completely determined to continue making mainstream movies.

After many communications with Lin Chaoxian, the latest main theme project "Operation Jiaolong" was officially established!
The project was inspired by "Operation Red Sea", which was previously directed by Chen Fei.

Lin Chaoxian followed Yu Dong's advice and prepared to combine the advantages of "Operation Red Sea" and "Wolf Warrior 2" to forge the project "Operation Jiaolong".

Bona, inside the chairman’s office.

Yu Dong looked at Lin Chaoxian, with whom he had worked many times, with his eyes full of expectations and trust, and said with a smile: "Old Lin, the project of Operation Jiaolong depends on you.

If you need anything, just ask. Manpower and funds are not a problem. The company will fully support you!"

Upon hearing this, Lin Chaoxian straightened his back, his eyes were as firm as torches, and he responded solemnly: "Don't worry, Mr. Yu! Since you have entrusted such an important project to me, I will definitely do my best.

This time, combining the passion of "Operation Red Sea" and the patriotism of "Wolf Warrior 2", I will personally oversee every link from script polishing to shooting and production.

I promise that Operation Jiaolong will not only continue the quality of the main theme of Chinese-language films, but also create a blockbuster masterpiece that will make the audience's blood boil and be engraved in their hearts! "

"Haha, okay, I'll wait for your good news."

Yu Dong smiled and walked Lin Chaoxian to the office door. He didn't turn around and go back until the other person's figure disappeared around the corner of the corridor.

The moment the heavy wooden door closed, he could no longer conceal the excitement in his eyes, and the smile on his lips could not be suppressed!

Walking to the French window, he scanned the scenery outside the window and murmured, "If this works, Bona's main theme will be..."

Before he finished speaking, a burning anticipation was already welling up in his heart.

There is no need to surpass anyone, as long as he can stand on par with projects of the same level as "Operation Red Sea" and "Wolf Warrior 2", he has the confidence to push Bona to officially enter the A-share market!
Thinking of this, he simply picked up his phone and called the production department, his tone full of joy almost overflowing: "The preparation funds for Operation Jiaolong must be implemented immediately according to the highest standards!"

"Yes, Mr. Yu."

There was a crisp response from the other end of the phone, which echoed in the silent office for a long time.

At the same time, Feiyue Films' official Weibo and the official Weibo of "Tang Dynasty Weird Stories" officially announced the casting announcement for the drama:

"The ancient detective web drama "Tang Dynasty Strange Stories", adapted from the original novel of the same name by writer Wei Fenghua, has recently officially confirmed the cast.

Young and talented actor Cao Jun will transform into the Jinwu Guard Lieutenant General 'Lu Lingfeng', who is highly skilled in martial arts and heroic. Under his cold appearance lies a fiery heart for justice, and he will surely present the image of an iron-willed Tang warrior to the audience.

With his exquisite acting skills, Luo Jin will play the role of 'Su Wuming'. As a thoughtful and intelligent disciple of Di Gong, he will join hands with 'Lu Lingfeng' to unravel the bizarre case.

Popular actress Li Yitong has been confirmed to play Pei Xijun. As a lady from the famous Pei family in Hedong, she not only has superb painting skills, but also has a courageous and intelligent character, making her an indispensable force in the detective team.

The talented young actress Meng Ziyi will play the charming and yet sharp Cherry. Her smart performance will surely add a different charm to this suspenseful drama...

A group of talented actors have gathered together to unveil the mystery behind the heyday of the Tang Dynasty! Stay tuned for more exciting content! "

With the release of this announcement, Weibo was the first to cause a sensation!
Hot discussions suddenly broke out:
"Wow? My sister Meng is getting better too. We are cooperating more and more with Feiyue Films."

"Li Yitong?! My Hupu goddess! Ahhhh!"

"Wow, I'm instantly back to the 17 version of The Legend of the Condor Heroes. Huang Rong and Mu Nianci are going to work together again."

"What? Why did they choose two unknown actors? Is Feiyue Film and Television any good? How is our Li Gengxi worse than them?" "Tsk tsk, the roles were already decided, right? Zhou Ye didn't even get selected? Are you kidding me?"

"Everyone, I advise you to think twice before you comment. Everyone knows that Feiyue Film and Television only chooses the right projects. They never look at traffic or fame. If they are not selected, they are not suitable. What is there to argue about?"

"My Lucy is absolutely beautiful! All of you get out of here!"

There is constant noise on Weibo, and there is also constant discussion within each company.

"Xiao Ye? How did you perform during your audition? Why were you squeezed out by two unknown people?"

Li Bingqiao looked at Zhou Ye with confusion, unable to understand why she failed in the competition.

Zhou Ye clutched the corner of his clothes, his eyes slightly red, and his voice was a little aggrieved: "Sister Bingqiao, I performed very well in the audition, but the performance styles of those two people are too unique.

They actually changed their lines on the spot during the rehearsal, and the director's eyes lit up on the spot, and he didn't forbid them to do so..."

Hearing this, Li Bingqiao sighed heavily, reached out and patted Zhou Ye's shoulder, with a bit of strength in his fingertips that showed his disappointment.

"This is how the industry is now. There are always some 'wild people' who can break through the siege."

After saying that, she turned and looked at the busy street outside the window. After thinking for a long time, she could only shake her head.

"Well, let's take this as a lesson. We should prepare well for the next project and make sure we get our place back."

On the other side, Xu Jinlei was also chatting with Li Gengxi about the audition for this role.

However, Li Gengxi explained: "Aunt, the director said that my facial features are too sharp and my temperament is cold and hard. The ancient costume can't support the soft and lively feeling. After the makeup test, it was directly brushed off."

After saying that, she pulled the corners of her mouth and smiled self-deprecatingly.

This comment is not good news for the actress.

Because this means that she will definitely not be included in any future costume dramas released by Feiyue Films!
Xu Jinlei looked back and forth at her face, from her sharp jawline to her raised eyebrows. After a moment of silence, she nodded gently and said:
“Your face does have a modern edge, but as for the casting, since Feiyue Films has professional considerations, let’s not dwell on it.

From now on, I will pick modern drama scripts specifically for you, such as a dashing female elite, a workplace heroine, or a high school student pretending to be young. With your acting skills, I guarantee you will be able to carve out a niche!"

"Uh-huh."

Li Gengxi couldn't tell whether Xu Jinlei was comforting her or not, so she could only nod passively and accept the evaluation that she was "not suitable for costume dramas."

However, at this moment, the most conflicted person has to be Zhang Ziyi.

Neither of the two artists she sent over was selected, and they didn't even get a guest role.

Now, due to the failure of the project "My Fathers and Me", which has led to constant controversy online, her career has come to a halt again.

The key issue is that even in marriage life there are some irreconcilable contradictions.

All of this combined made her extremely depressed.

I feel so aggrieved but I don't know who to tell.

"Alas, if I had chosen Sabenin, would my life have changed?"

Seeing that Sabe is doing better and better and Wang Feng is doing very well, she feels so regretful that her intestines are about to turn green.

It’s not that she hasn’t thought about divorce, but in order to be with Wang Feng, the two of them made so much trouble, and she herself was determined to marry him.

Now that she suddenly announces that she is getting a divorce, won’t netizens laugh at her to death?
……

After a night, it was the 16th.

As expected, all nine movies released yesterday, Friday, failed miserably without causing any waves at all.

However, today the entire entertainment industry is paying attention to one big event, and no one cares about the movie box office at all.

"Happy Camp", which has been on the air for 24 years, was suspended this month!
As early as last week on the 9th, Mango TV was supposed to broadcast the National Day special program of "Happy Camp", but in the "Rating Guide" of the official website, it became the TV series "Good Life", which triggered speculation that the program was suspended.

Later, in response to questions from netizens, Mango TV stated that the Saturday night prime-time show "Happy Camp" will be upgraded and updated.

But a week has passed and not only has no upgrade or renewal been delivered, but a lot of negative information about several hosts has emerged.

He Jiong was exposed to have received huge amounts of support gifts from fans, Wu Xin sold support gifts on second-hand platforms, Du Haitao's endorsement went bankrupt, and the milk tea brand endorsed by Li Weijia ran away with the money. The victims went directly to Mango TV to defend their rights, calling him an "immoral artist"...

Amidst all these public opinion storms, no one has ever come forward to respond.

There was no final decision on the time when the program would be rebroadcast, which immediately sparked more heated discussions.

Influenced by this, Chen Fei took time out to hold a video conference with Wang Changtian and Gu Yongqiang.

"We must remember the lesson of Happy Camp this time, and our self-made variety shows must engrave 'eliminating negativity' into every link.

The selection of permanent guests must be subject to strict background checks, the weight of moral assessment must exceed professional ability, and a risk warning mechanism must be set up for sponsorship cooperation. If the spokesperson shows any negative signs, the cooperation will be terminated immediately..."

In the video, Gu Yongqiang pushed up his glasses and quickly wrote down the key points in his notebook, while continuing:

"Don't worry, Mr. Chen. We will immediately establish an artist behavior archive, and all the social dynamics and past remarks of our partners will be included in the screening scope."

Wang Changtian added: "I think the sponsorship terms should also include a breach of contract liability clause. If there is a problem with the spokesperson, the other party must bear all losses."

Fade Chen nodded and glanced at the two people on the other side of the screen: "As for the fan support, there must be no loopholes.

From the program team to the artist team, anyone who accepts gifts will be removed from the team. During the promotion phase, public opinion should also be controlled, and the program should not be turned into a platform for fans to fight each other. "

Gu Yongqiang quickly responded, "Understood! Each subsequent variety show plan will be accompanied by a risk assessment report, and a dedicated person will supervise the execution throughout the process!"

In addition to "Running Man" and "Go Fighting", Youku has launched a number of self-produced variety shows in recent years.

The greater the number, the more difficult it is to control.

In the era of traffic, anyone, whether human or ghost, has the opportunity to become famous overnight and then attract enough attention and spotlight on major platforms.

But these people are often the most dangerous!
Once the platform goes bankrupt or collapses, it is very likely that all the efforts and hard work of the platform will be wasted, or even the platform will have to lose money.

So we must be careful! Careful! Careful again!
Before hanging up the video, Chen Fei emphasized again: "It is better to go slower and more steadily than to let negative news ruin our hard work."

"it is good."

"clear."

Wang Changtian and Gu Yongqiang nodded in unison to indicate that they had taken note.

Under the deliberate guidance of some people, the popularity of the suspension of "Happy Camp" did not last long and disappeared without a trace from the entire Internet.

But this also confirmed Chen Fei's guess.

There is definitely a big bomb hidden under this show!
And it’s a big bomb that is about to explode!
If the show is not stopped immediately, once the news breaks out, I'm afraid Mango TV will be doomed as well!
Of course, he was just watching the show and had no interest in exploring the inside story.

If you accidentally get into trouble, you will be in big trouble.

On October 10, "My Fathers and Me" was officially taken off the screen, with a total box office of 21 million yuan.

This main theme masterpiece, which had great fanfare when it was first released, ultimately ended up being a lot of noise but little results, ending up with a whimper.

However, Xu Zheng, who became famous with this movie, did not stop there. Instead, he immediately announced that he would transform into a producer.

For a time, projects such as "Hello, Yanjing" and "Fake Dad" began to be linked to him.

His wife Tao Hong even publicly stated that she would support her husband's transformation and go further on the path of producer and director!

However, what the couple didn’t know was that the TST network pyramid scheme incident involving Zhang Ting and his wife, who were cooperating with them, had already begun to ferment!

Meanwhile, at Feiyue Films, Chen Fei was busy confirming the release dates for several films that were set to be released during the Lunar New Year holiday…
