Chapter 616 Another Pandora's Box Is Opened. The Reality Is Even More Magical than the Movie!

Los Angeles, Dolby Theater.

As the third and final film in the Iron Man series, Marvel has high hopes for this film.

The global box office of the first two films finally stopped at $900 million, so for the third film, Kevin Feige's goal is $1 billion!

The sentiment has reached its peak, and various promotional activities are also going well. It should not be too difficult to achieve the goal.

"Fei, long time no see!"

At the entrance of the Dolby Theater, looking at the people from the Fast and Furious 6 crew coming towards him, Chen Fei suddenly had many memories that made him speechless.

Especially the song "See you again", every time he thought of it, he felt so embarrassed that he wanted to dig his toes into the ground.

This is so fucking speechless!

The song that was supposed to be a tribute to Paul Walker actually appeared on his head, and he was still pretending to be sick at the time, and he was not really shot!

It's really depressing to think about it, this fucking butterfly effect is really full!

"You too, long time no see..."

Fade Chen raised his hand and greeted Vin Diesel, Paul Walker, Dwayne Johnson, Gal Gadot and chatted casually for a few words.

Fast and Furious 6 has been released for a week, and the box office results are unexpectedly good!

The box office on the first day of release was 45.45 million US dollars, and the total of 124 million US dollars in the first three days of the weekend. The North American box office is very likely to reach 300 million US dollars.

The domestic release date of this movie is set on July 26, which is very close to the release date of "Equator" produced by Golden Harvest.

I don't know where it started, every domestic film seems to have to go through the competition and baptism of imported films.

If the quality of the film is high enough, then it will naturally rise all the way and climb steadily!

But if the quality is extremely poor, then you can only wait for losses.

Before entering the venue, Chen Fei and Gal Gadot walked together. He casually asked: "I heard that you joined Warner's Justice League?"

"Yes." Gal Gadot nodded gently: "They asked me to play Wonder Woman."

"Okay, come on, I wish you success."

Although the two had had many in-depth exchanges, this was just a kind of mutual comfort.

The role of Wonder Woman is not very good in Chen Fei's opinion, but for Gal Gadot, this is already the best role she can get.

Chen Fei is not good at judging anything, he can only wish her well.

The group of senior executives of Warner have become more and more abstract in recent years, and all kinds of tricks have been continuously carried out, making Chen Fei a little confused.

There are many people attending the premiere today, most of whom came for Chen Fei, the new Golden Palm Director and Cannes Film Emperor.

He can shoot both commercial and art films, and has achieved both box office and awards. Such people are very rare and high-quality contacts in the eyes of production companies and actors.

Just ask, which star and actor in Hollywood doesn't want to be associated with him?

Especially those actresses who have had in-depth exchanges with Chen Fei, when they go out to other crews, they can usually avoid a lot of unnecessary trouble.

After sitting in the front row, Chen Fei turned around and saw Leonardo chatting with Matt Damon and Matthew McConaughey.

He casually interrupted: "Leon, how are you preparing? Are you confident about this year's Oscar for Best Actor?"

"Yes!" Leonardo raised his head high: "I am asking Matthew and Matt for tips on how to win the Oscar. This time, I will definitely take home the little golden man!"

Leonardo actually does public relations every year, but the effect is very poor.

This year, he plans to combine the PR experience of all actors who have won Oscars.

After working hard for so many years, he believes that he will definitely achieve something!

Oscar, he is determined to win!

His new Russian supermodel girlfriend sitting next to him looked at him with an admiring expression, unaware that she was about to turn 25.

…

The premiere started soon, and when Robert Downey Jr. came on stage in a suit of armor, there was a warm cheer from the audience!

In recent years, superhero movies have emerged in an endless stream.

But if we rank the popularity of these superheroes, "Iron Man" must be the one with the most fans in the world!

Back then, Robert Downey Jr. was just a lonely middle-aged decadent man, but when he got the role of "Iron Man", in just a few years, he has become one of the most commercially valuable male stars in the world!

His current net worth is almost at the same level as Leo, and with the upcoming release of "Iron Man 3", his net worth will definitely go up a level.

Although this popularity has a time limit, it is enough to make him a lot of money.

More than an hour later, the film ended and the audience burst into warm applause!

Unlike the original timeline, this "Iron Man 3" produced by Chen Fei does not have an international version and a mainland version.

The two Chinese faces "Dr. Wu" and "Wu Jiaqi" were not deleted, but were retained throughout the whole process.

The two roles were played by Zhu Zhu and Zun Long respectively.

The English level of the two is the best among the artists of the entire Feiyinghuang agency, so the original voice was used in the filming, and no special voice actors were found.

In recent years, Chen Fei has been vigorously promoting Chinese actors to go international. As long as there are suitable roles and opportunities, he will always call people from China.

Because of this, there are countless artists who want to join Feiyinghuang Agency, and the HR department has received a lot of resumes every day.

However, unlike Huayi and Chengtian, which accept everyone, Feiyinghuang's review system is very strict.

Chen Fei requires "quality rather than quantity".

For every actor who joins Feiyinghuang, he will formulate a general development route for him in his spare time.

Because of this, those artists who are just filling in the numbers and want to come in for retirement can't stay here at all.

...

After the premiere of "Iron Man 3" officially ended, the follow-up was the banquet time for socializing.

So far, Harvey Weinstein seems to be the subject of most people's discussion.

When chatting with Catherine, she suddenly said: "Although I don't know who is behind all this, all Hollywood actors and even people in other professions should thank him."

"Oh?" Chen Fei was a little surprised: "Why do you say that?"

"Although this incident cannot fundamentally change the industry's atmosphere, it will make the industry's ecological environment better to some extent." As a female director, Catherine has seen too much injustice: "After this incident, those actresses at the bottom should be less hurt."

She didn't know that the manipulator behind the scenes was Chen Fei, but this did not affect her admiration.

Chen Fei smiled and did not comment: "Recently, the outside world is promoting women's rights, which should be good news for you."

"No." Catherine suddenly shook her head solemnly: "If it is just a normal women's rights movement, then it is indeed good for me, but I feel that this movement is like 'LGBT', and is moving towards a new extreme!

There are many people who are under the banner of protecting women and fighting for free speech and discourse rights to satisfy their own selfish interests..."

Chen Fei suddenly fell silent.

He thought of a subway incident that happened in the future.

After LGBT, it seems that another Pandora's box has been opened in advance!

…

After the premiere of "Iron Man 3", the launch conference of "Now You See Me 2" followed.

At the end of a new day, after leaving the launch conference, Chen Fei returned to Volt Pictures and watched the finished film of "Nomadland" with Michael Mann.

This movie has been decided to participate in the next Oscars, mainly competing for the Best Director award.

After watching it, Chen Fei went to Lucasfilm and watched the finished film of "Godzilla".

Then he went to the studio of DreamWorks to visit the filming of "Transformers 4".

The movie is still directed by Michael Bay, and the main creative members are Mark Wahlberg, Stanley Tucci, Kelsey Grammer, Nicola Peltz, Jack Reynor and others.

Chen Fei's arrival was warmly welcomed by the entire "Transformers 4" crew!

Especially Gulinaza, who came to the crew to participate in the guest appearance, when she saw him, the girl's eyes lit up.

There are two relatively important Chinese characters in "Transformers 4". Chen Fei directly gave Michael Bay the list of actors from Feiyinghuang Agency and asked him to choose.

In the end, he chose the combination of Wu Jing + Gulinaza.

The former had a wonderful appearance in "Pacific Rim", and she is also an action actor who dares to fight and can fight, so she is very suitable for participating in the guest appearance.

As for the latter, it was purely because the "Queen of Jingjue" style was also a little popular in Hollywood, so Michael Bay chose her.

"Director Chen, I didn't expect to meet you here, I'm so lucky!"

Gulinaza came up and greeted him very excitedly, just like a little fan girl.

Wu Jing is still in China and has not officially joined the crew, so she is the only Chinese actor in the entire crew.

"How is it? Are you getting used to it here?"

"Yeah, not bad. Everyone else is taking good care of me."

Michael Bay had just finished filming a short scene at this time. When he saw Chen Fei on the set, he hurried over to greet him.

When talking about Gulinaza, he also praised her: "The girl is very good, very hardworking, and able to endure hardships. She does all the scenes by herself and rarely uses a double..."

Chen Fei nodded: "That's good, but you still have to pay attention to safety and try to avoid getting hurt."

Gulinaza thanked him in fluent English and would occasionally agree with him.

Chen Fei listened carefully, and what puzzled him was that he didn't hear the "poor" tone.

He couldn't help but mutter in his heart: "Hey? This girl's English level is pretty good? Is it a malicious editing by Wuliang Media?"

...

After leaving the studio of Lucasfilm, Chen Fei took a plane to New York again.

He doesn't need to be responsible for the preparation and filming of "Guardians of the Galaxy", but "Avengers: Age of Ultron" is his project.

After finishing "The Revenant" in the first half of next year, "Age of Ultron" will be filmed right after that.

While there is still time, he has to check with Kevin Feige on the subsequent preparations and scene construction issues.

For a work with an investment of more than 200 million US dollars, it is not possible to just start shooting. Preparation is the top priority.

If you want to get high box office, you must handle the details well.

After arriving in New York and meeting Kevin Feige and other leaders of the post-production team, Chen Fei directly held a meeting.

“My idea was to build a giant Avengers Tower on a soundstage, and then have shots of earthquakes, mudslides, ice shelves breaking up, buildings collapsing and buildings being demolished, and I wanted to be able to show the clutter in the shots. Without losing the effect of details..."

As the producer and director of the film, all Chen Fei needs to do is give orders, and then leave enough time for his subordinates to make preliminary preparations.

Some details will naturally be reviewed by dedicated personnel, and there is no need for him to do it himself. This is one of the reasons why he likes the Hollywood film industry system.

After the meeting, it was already very late.

Chen Fei bought an apartment in New York a long time ago. This time he didn't go to the hotel and stayed in the apartment directly.

Every once in a while, someone will come over to clean the room and fill it with daily necessities, so there is no shortage of anything here.

After taking a shower, he called up the computer he brought with him and started browsing the news on the website.

It must be said that the development of the "Metoo" group is like sitting on a rocket, flying to the sky in the blink of an eye.

In less than half a month, even the organization's logo has appeared.

It was a fist collar badge painted with red nails, and the English logo "Me too" was rendered in big red fonts below.

Leaders in the women's rights movement such as Jennifer Sebel and Cila Li will all wear this collar badge on their collars whenever they attend events.

So far, the number of victims who have accused Harvey has reached 132!

After the blowout period for victims some time ago, no one jumped out again in the past two days.

There seemed to be someone behind the incident, so much so that the trial date was set in just a few days.

According to the announcement from the Los Angeles Court, Harvey's court case will be broadcast live to the whole world, so that everyone can see the moment when Harvey is judged by law!

Chen Fei originally planned to return to China after his trip to New York, but because the time for Harvey's trial was determined, he changed his mind.

Anyway, it’s not a day or two away. It’s better to wait until the trial is over before leaving.

…

On June 6, "Iron Man 3" officially launched its global screening.

Marvel secured 4,500 opening theaters for this movie, so that the box office on the first day directly exceeded 80 million US dollars!

The lMDb score is tentatively rated at 8.6. Although it will definitely drop in the future, it has at least proved the success of this film.

Chen Fei did not pay attention to netizens' comments on the film, because the day after the film was released, the Los Angeles court publicly heard the crimes committed by Harvey Weinstein.

Although he arrived outside the court early in the morning, Chen Fei was still shocked by the huge crowd of people in front of him!

Looking around, the number of media reporters and various social organizations protesting was as high as hundreds.

There are also a huge number of families of the victims.

Outside the court, there were more than a dozen TV broadcast trucks from various news websites parked!

In order to meet the needs of the public and media, various wireless communication service providers even sent additional signal trucks to avoid interruption of rebroadcast signals.

Chen Fei walked into the court through the back door, went up to a reception room on the second floor, and watched the scene outside with Natasha, Bruce, Nicholson and others.

When the time came to nine o'clock in the morning, five buses stopped outside the court.

The next second, media reporters on the scene swarmed over and focused their cameras on the car door.

Under everyone's attention, Jennifer Xibaier and Silali, who were wearing "Me too" logos on their collars, got out of the car first and then led more than 100 victims into the court.

What surprised Chen Fei was that Harvey's brother Bob actually came to the court hearing.

He did not choose to come in through the back door, but stood openly in front of the media: "I had indeed heard that Harvey had contacts with some actresses, but I never expected that he would actually do such a thing. Evil deed!

I feel that everyone must be responsible for their own sinful behavior, even if he is my brother, I unconditionally support the court's harsh trial against him.

At the same time, I will also make a promise to the public that under my leadership, Weinstein Films will never engage in such bad behavior in the future..."

Bob's ideas are very different from Harvey's. The latter focuses on winning prizes, but the former wants more brokerage benefits.

In comparison, the former will naturally be less controversial.

Later, Harvey's ex-wife Georgina Chapman also came to the scene.

But she didn't say anything. Facing the reporter's interview, she just lowered her head and silently walked into the court.

The incident has come to an end. The more severe Harvey's sentence is, the more things she can get!

In the current situation, keeping a low profile is the most important thing for her to do.

…

With all the victims in place, the next person to appear is naturally the criminal Harvey Weinstein.

Soon, an ambulance slowly drove to the door of the court, and Harvey, whose head was wrapped like a mummy, got out of the car with the help of the bailiff.

He lowered his head and said nothing. Facing the questions from the media reporters on both sides and the insults from the victims' families, he pretended not to hear them all.

However, just as he walked to the middle of the crowd, a very fierce shout suddenly sounded from both sides!

"Among the many victims violated by Harvey Weinstein, there is not a single black person. This shows that he is still a hateful discriminator. I ask the judge to sentence him severely!"

This shameless words immediately caused an uproar in the audience, and even Harvey cast a look of astonishment.

Damn it, this fucking horse can even be linked to him, is it necessary to be so pitiful?

However, the next second, a loudspeaker suddenly came from his right: "Among the many victims of Harvey Weinstein, there is not a single transgender person. This shows that he also discriminates against people of the same sex. I would like to strongly protest!"

As these two voices sounded, the scene was suddenly filled with the voices of various "monsters and demons".

Environmentalists, vegetarians, animal protectionists...

In the second-floor box, listening to these calls outside, Chen Fei felt that his three views were rapidly breaking.

Sure enough!

Reality is even more magical than in the movie!
