Chapter 548: Choice Is Always More Important than Hard Work. What? The "Westernization Movement" In the Film Industry?

"After 40 days, Chen's latest feature film "Dallas Buyers Club" has officially finished shooting!"

"This year's Oscar candidate films are freshly released."

"I wish Chen another Oscar, win the little golden man, and return with glory!"

...

With the official completion of "Dallas Buyers Club", domestic and foreign media have begun to report it, and some media have even started to open champagne for Chen Fei at halftime.

There is no movement from the "Argo" crew for the time being.

Warner Bros. is currently focusing on "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises" and has no time to take care of Chen Fei.

It is still early to the official award-winning time, and the Oscars are basically in a calm state.

After returning to the editing room of Walton Pictures with the material, Chen Fei immediately called his own editor and started working!

A long time ago, he would edit it himself.

But now, he is more likely to describe the pictures and scenes he wants, and then hand them over to others to handle.

It is enough to take charge of the overall situation. There is no need to do everything by yourself. Otherwise, why spend a high price to hire the most professional top editor in the industry?

At the same time, Matthew McConaughey, Jared Leto, Liu Yifei and others are also on standby at all times. If the live sound recording effect of some clips is not very good, they will rush over to re-record in a short time.

"This time, we are mainly competing for the best picture, best director, best actor, and best supporting actor, so we need your full cooperation."

In the conference room, Chen Fei set the main tone of this Oscar rush under the attention of the main creative members of the crew.

In fact, in the previous preset, "Best Supporting Actor" was not within the scope of this year's Oscars.

But after watching Jared Leto's wonderful performance in the film, Chen Fei felt that he should help him fight for it.

Regardless of whether it can be successful or not, at least he has tried hard, and it can be regarded as no regrets.

Chen Fei had already thought of the slogan for the competition. The main target was the "LGBT" group. The character "Rui Yang" played by Jared in the play could just be the spokesperson for this group of people.

Regarding this year's Oscars, Chen Fei mainly controlled the tone: [Pay attention to the discriminated groups in the American society].

He was very sure that the tone of the story of "Dallas Buyers Club" would definitely be much better than the story of a CIA agent disguised as a film producer and successfully rescued 6 American soldiers!

In the conference room, everyone applauded after hearing Chen Fei's words.

Especially Jared Leto, who was extremely excited at this time!

Five years of retirement almost made him completely out of Hollywood. Unexpectedly, this time he returned and could compete for the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor.

Sure enough, choice is much more important than hard work!

After the meeting, the tone was officially set, and Bruce and the public relations team began to make plans for the charge of this year's Oscars.

At the same time, Chen Fei went straight to the editing room to continue to follow up on the subsequent content control.

In the corridor, he walked forward and said to Liu Yifei beside him: "Unlike the Best Picture and Best Director, the Oscars for Best Actor and Best Actress are very exclusive.

So, I won't publicize the Best Actress award for you this time.

But don't be discouraged, you are still young, and there is still a long way to go. I will try to get you a Best Actress award at the three major European film festivals..."

Chen Fei was talking in a nagging manner, not noticing that Liu Yifei's expression had become very "wonderful".

Oscar Best Actress?

Good guy!

She didn't even think about it!

As for being named the Best Actress of the three major European films... This is a scene she has never dreamed of in her daydreams!

When she won the Saturn Award for Best Actress for "Mulan" earlier, she was stunned for a long time after returning home before she reacted.

Like Leonardo, she is actually an insulator of movie awards.

After seeing her face, the judges always subconsciously ignore her acting skills, no matter how good she is.

So when she heard Chen Fei say that he would bring her a Best Actress award at the European Film Festival, she was completely stunned.

And Best Actress? Just being nominated was already a blessing, and winning Best Actress was completely a fantasy in her eyes!

But just when she was about to explain something, she looked up and saw Chen Fei's expression was very serious, as if he was already thinking about what kind of script to write to help her win the Best Actress award.

The words she wanted to say were instantly stuck in her throat, and she couldn't open her mouth at all.

This feeling of being carried along made her very obsessed, and she had unknowingly fallen into it and couldn't extricate herself...

What is the happiness of the cultivation system?

The key is the word "cultivation".

Chen Fei has now achieved both fame and fortune. Even if he directly announces his retirement and completely withdraws from the entertainment industry, he can definitely guarantee his wealth and prosperity in the second half of his life.

But he doesn't want to leave the entertainment industry so early, because he hasn't had enough of playing in this circle full of intrigues and interests!

He hasn't surpassed Spielberg and won the crown of the global total box office ranking.

He hasn't overthrown Harvey Weinstein and officially established his status as the Oscar decision-maker.

He has not yet accumulated enough animated film rights to make the movie "Ready Player One".

He hasn't completed all eight Ozaki events yet...

Thinking of so many alternative goals that had not yet been completed, Chen Fei couldn't help but step on the accelerator pedal, which directly caused the Lexus to accelerate and rush out!

"Entertainment industry? Labor and management haven't had enough!"

At this time, at the filming site of "Fast and Furious 6", Wen Ziren, who was sitting behind the monitor, looked at the Lexus rushing towards the distance with a confused face, and a trace of confusion flashed across his face unconsciously.

Why did he suddenly accelerate?

After a moment, he came back to his senses and quickly grabbed the walkie-talkie nearby and shouted: "Fei! Come back quickly! This scene has already passed! You went too far!"

It took two minutes for the roar of the engine to come from the distance.

"Tsk tsk tsk!"

With a 360-degree extreme drift, Chen Fei parked the Lexus into the parking space very smoothly.

Opening the car door, he smiled awkwardly at Wen Ziren: "Sorry, I haven't touched a sports car for a long time. I'm a little too excited."

Wen Ziren slapped his forehead with a helpless expression.

What could he say?

What did he dare to say?

"Fast 6" has been filming for a long time, and production has been stopped intermittently several times during this period.

The "master" in front of me finally found time to come over and participate in the guest appearance, but I have to take good care of him. It would be troublesome if he gave up his choice.

"Ok, today's scene has ended successfully. We will meet at the airport at 8 o'clock tomorrow to finish shooting the scene of bombing the plane, and then go to the highway to shoot the remaining chase scenes..."

Wen Ziren briefly arranged the content of the scenes to be filmed tomorrow, and then left the set with the material captured today.

Everyone had their own things to do, and soon returned to their nanny cars or private cars, and left the set one after another.

Chen Fei had already agreed with Gal Gadot in advance that he would go to her room for a friendly match tonight, so the two went straight to the same car.

But at this moment, Paul Walker suddenly came over: "Fei, there is a car friends exchange meeting tonight, are you interested in attending?"

A meeting for car enthusiasts?

Chen Fei was slightly stunned and asked subconsciously: "What is the theme?"

"Beer, beautiful women, and race cars!"

Paul Walker was extremely excited. It can be seen that he is full of expectations for tonight's exchange meeting with car enthusiasts.

However, at this time, Chen Fei frowned subconsciously.

He was quite interested in beautiful women and racing cars, but the word "beer" definitely shouldn't appear with the latter!

There are thousands of roads, this is the first one!

Driving irregularly makes loved ones burst into tears!

Don't drive when you drink, and don't drink when you drive. These are his driving principles.

Although he wanted to persuade Paul a few words, looking at his expectant look, it was obvious that he would not listen.

After thinking about it, he shook his head and said, "Paul, I may not have time tonight."

After saying that, without waiting for Paul Walker to continue persuading, he raised his hand and pointed directly at Gal Gadot, who was waiting for him in the distance: "I have an appointment with Gadot tonight, and we are going to drive together."

Paul Walker is not surprised by this, after all, this is Hollywood.

He just sighed with regret and said, "Well, I wish you all a wonderful night, and remember to bring your car clothes!"

Chen Fei bumped fists with him: "You too, please drive safely."

The two soon separated.

When Chen Fei came to Gal Gadot, he found that she had already started the Porsche.

Judging from the temperature value displayed on the meter, she had obviously been waiting for a long time.

In the driver's seat, Gal Gadot first glanced at Paul Walker's sports car driving in the distance, then looked at Chen Fei, and asked curiously: "What were you two talking about just now?"

"Talk about cars." Chen Fei responded seriously.

"oh."

She didn't think much, changed gears, and drove straight towards the hotel.

When passing by a roadside convenience store, she was about to get out of the car to buy a TT, but was stopped by Chen Fei.

"No need to buy it, I'm ready."

As if by magic, Chen Fei took out 5 uniquely packaged TTs from his pocket.

Gal Gadot stared at it for a while and suddenly asked: "Why haven't I seen this style before?"

"Because this TT was customized by my client, it is strong, durable and will definitely not leak."

"No need, right?" Gal Gadot muttered in a low voice: "Anyway, I don't have to swallow it every time..."

The subsequent words were completely drowned in the roar of the Porsche engine.

In the middle of July, with the popularity of "Famous Four" and "Search", domestic small and medium-cost domestic films began to be released one after another, and they all wanted to get a piece of the pie.

Brother Chen Kai was still shouting that he would break through 300 million and win 500 million, but as the first week box office of "Search" was released, he suddenly lost his voice.

It only took in a box office of 79.52 million in one week of release, which is far away from 300 million, let alone 500 million.

On the other hand, "Famous Man", on the other hand, has been in theaters for half a month, and its box office has already reached close to 200 million. It may officially break through tomorrow.

The Rays are already preparing to open champagne at halftime. This is also the custom of the Hong Kong production team. On average, they celebrate every time the box office exceeds 100 million.

At the same time, the voices on the Internet about Wang Changtian and Chen Kaige's mutual opposition suddenly became quieter.

After all, the outcome of this battle is already clear.

Brother Chen Kai knew he was no match for the opponent, so he kept a low profile.

After all, Wang Changtian is a businessman, and he doesn't want to offend Brother Chen Kai to death.

After seeing him giving in, Lao Wang stopped attacking him.

However, he can't control what netizens say, and he won't care about it.

"Poet Chen really has two skills when it comes to speaking harshly."

"Haha, he gives in when he loses, and screams when he wins. This is indeed his style."

"I also admire him very much. Director Chen has been defeated many times, but he is not convinced every time."

"If you look through the previous news, almost every time it was him who started the trouble and was then severely slapped in the face by others."

"I won't read it. I'm afraid to watch "The Promise". The steamed bun murder case was so tragic. Every time I see news about it, I feel very sorry for my wallet."

Along with the heated discussion on the Internet, the two movies are still quietly competing and competing.

At the same time, several movies that will be released in August have also begun to promote.

As the third stage of the summer vacation schedule, August is not actually a particularly high-quality schedule, but this does not affect the fierce competition among major producers at all!

"Anti-Corruption 2" is scheduled to be released on August 1, "Tai Chi: From Scratch" is scheduled to be released on August 15, "Second Exposure" is scheduled to be released on August 19, and "Your Name" is scheduled to be released on August 23 , "Dangerous Liaisons" is scheduled to be released on August 27...

In addition, in addition to these recognized domestic "blockbusters", there are also many imported films participating in the competition.

Jason Sunstein "The Machinist", Guy Pearce "Space One", Daniel Hennie "The New Yorker x-on: Magic City", Matthew McConaughey "The Lincoln Lawyer", "Little Elephant 2", " black gold"……

Thanks to "The Amazing Spider-Man" and "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises" being moved to September by Han Sanping, otherwise August would have been a terrifying battle between domestic films and imported films!

And if nothing else, domestic movies will definitely die miserably!

But even though two imported blockbusters have been moved to September, when the August movie release list was officially announced, the industry was still excited.

"It doesn't leave any way for domestic films to survive at all!"

"What the hell? Isn't this just imported films from various countries suppressing domestic films? Protest! Strong protest! Isn't this schedule of films too unreasonable?"

"Looking at it now, I think the only ones with the best chance of winning are "Anti-Corruption Storm 2" and "Your Name". After all, the quality of the movies produced by Feiyue Film and Television is still very good, not to mention that these are all scripts written by Chen Fei "

"What? Why did I hear someone shouting 'I want foreigners to die'?"

"Obviously, this wave is Feiyue Film and Television's war on imported films. I would like to call it the 'Westernization Movement' in the film industry."

"Hey? Where did you put Huayi? Didn't Wang Zhonglei say that "Tai Chi: From Zero" can have a box office of at least 500 million?"

"Believe him? You might as well believe that I am Qin Shihuang! Come on, quickly transfer money."
