Chapter 738: Authority Dog? What? The Movie King and the Queen Reunite! In the Era of High Pay, Hollywood's Acquaintances

The audition for "The Mermaid" ended at 12:30, and the related news appeared at 1:00.

I have to say that the efficiency of this group of media is surprisingly high!

"Congratulations: The two-month-long audition for the heroine of the movie "The Mermaid" jointly produced and invested by China Film, Star, Guangguang, and Feiyue Film and Television has successfully ended this morning."

"The new Star Girl is officially born, Zhao Liying, a first-line actress in the industry! She will join forces with Zhou Xingchi!"

"From "Your Name" to "The Martian", Zhao Liying has become a top second-line actress. The hit TV series "The Journey of Flower" has pushed her to the level of a first-line actress. Now with "The Mermaid"... Another top-tier actress is about to make a grand debut!"

...

For a whole afternoon, the Weibo hot search list was full of news about Zhao Liying.

"The Journey of Flower" has just aired to the finale, and Zhao Liying is already at the peak of popularity. Now she has become the new "Star Girl", which undoubtedly set off the entire film and television industry!

In the comment area, various voices of support are heard:

"Xiao Gu is great. She fought her way out of the siege of more than 100,000 people and successfully became Zhou Xingchi's mermaid. She is really amazing!"

"Support Zhao Liying to star in "The Mermaid". When the movie is released, I must go to the theater to support it."

"Haha, "Gu Jian Qi Tan" is still comparing with each other. Now it's good. Let me see how you can compare?"

"I know that the idol I support is definitely not an ordinary person. She plays the leading role in a hit TV series and a big-budget movie. It's amazing!"

"Liying flies bravely, and the fireflies will always follow her!"

Looking at these news and netizens' comments, a large number of actresses are envious.

Especially those famous actresses who "compete on the same stage" with Zhao Liying, they feel like they are being carried by others.

Obviously, they all rushed to compete for the "leading actress", but in the end, they became the green leaves that set off the red flowers.

This feeling is so uncomfortable.

The one who was hurt the most was Yang Ying!

She had thought that she would be able to be successfully elected as the female lead with her boyfriend's connections and resources, but she never thought that she would lose face in the finals.

That was a live broadcast!

When Zhou Xingchi asked her to perform a crying scene, she couldn't cry out loud, so she was ridiculed by many people.

She had already lost face in the crew when she was filming "The Founding of a Party".

But now, she actually had a big poop in front of the national audience, which was so tragic.

"I will never go to this kind of audition again in the future. Isn't this deliberately embarrassing people?"

In the villa, Yang Ying cried pear blossoms in the rain.

Huang Xiaoming looked at her awkwardly, feeling helpless.

He had reminded Yang Ying long ago to recognize herself and not to embarrass herself.

Now, retribution has come, and she can only digest it herself, and no one can help her.

…

"Has Zhao Liying become a star girl?"

In the crew of "I Am a Witness", Yang Mi felt mixed emotions when she read the news online.

Once upon a time, she was a new generation of actress in Feiyinghuang Agency, second only to Liu Yifei in popularity and status. Zhao Liying couldn't even reach her heels.

But now, the latter has not only become popular with "The Journey of Flower", but also become a new generation of star girl, with great film and television resources!

What about her?

Although she has also taken on several movies and has always played the leading role, her reputation has been getting worse and worse.

In the future, I am afraid that she will not even be able to keep the title of the Four Little Flowers.

"How did it become like this?"

She looked at herself in the makeup mirror, looking increasingly haggard, full of confusion, but she couldn't find the answer.

…

With the end of the auditions, the casting of "The Mermaid" has officially come to an end.

In the following period, Zhao Liying will follow the crew for a half-month training, and then officially join the crew to start filming in October.

After finishing work, Zhou Xingchi hosted a group of people for a simple meal.

In the box, while waiting for the dishes to be served, everyone looked at the popularity and discussion about "The Mermaid" on the Internet, and they were a little emotional.

Wang Changtian, who was born in the media, analyzed from a professional perspective: "This audition plan is really too successful. If it can maintain the current popularity, the box office will definitely not be bad after the movie is released."

Zhou Xingchi agreed with his statement and kept smiling:

"The audition of the star girl is one aspect. In addition, Zhao Liying's own popularity is also a major factor. The popularity of the hit TV series "The Journey of Flower" has also been added to "The Mermaid". This is something I didn't expect."

At this time, Zhou Xingchi was also a little relieved.

Thanks to him for finally choosing Zhao Liying. If he chose Lin Yun, the popularity and effect created in the end would definitely not be as high as it is now.

Several big men were talking, while Zhao Liying was pouring wine obediently and showing a simple smile from time to time, which was quite pleasing to the eye.

And because Chen Fei was there, those messy drinking culture would naturally not appear.

From beginning to end, Zhao Liying did not touch a drop of wine, and no one specifically asked her to toast or anything.

This situation can only happen in Feiyinghuang Agency. If it were in other companies, I am afraid it would cost a lot more.

As the dinner was coming to an end, Zhao Haicheng, the deputy general manager of China Film Group and one of the producers of "Mermaid", suddenly reminded:

"We need to address public relations issues as soon as possible. There are currently many problems on Zhang Yuqi's side, and there will definitely be some negative impacts on Zhao Liying's side."

As soon as these words came out, everyone was slightly startled and their expressions became a little more serious.

The circle understands clearly what the appearance of "Star Girl" means.

The rise of Zhao Liying will inevitably affect other female stars, and thus there will definitely be some criticism, which needs to be controlled.

But at this moment, Chen Fei suddenly said: "I will ask Weibo to cooperate. If anyone dances too much or any media makes random comments, then they will be banned for a few months."

As soon as these words came out, everyone couldn't help but start muttering in their hearts.

"This is a permission dog!"

…

After the casting of "Mermaid" ended, Chen Fei returned to the company immediately.

Once one big thing is settled, you have to be busy with another big thing.

The preparations for "Operation Mekong" are almost complete, and some members of the production team have already gone to the filming location in advance to conduct on-site inspections.

As long as the other side sends a message back, he will immediately set off to hold a formal opening ceremony.

What surprised him was that just one day later, Huayi also issued an announcement right after "Mermaid":

"Hot news, the casting for the movie "Old Paoer" produced exclusively by Huayi and directed by director Guan Rui has ended. The starring cast is specifically: Feng Xiaogang, Wu Yifan, Li Yifeng, Xu Qing..."

When this announcement was made, the entertainment industry suddenly became lively.

Yesterday, everyone was still envious of Zhao Liying's good luck in becoming a new generation of star girl.

And today, the object of everyone's envy has become Wu Yifan!

No one thought that this idol trainee who returned from South Korea would be so "favored" and "highly praised" by the Beijing circle.

Not even half a year after returning to China, I first received a lot of luxury endorsements, and then starred in Xu Cairen's "There's a Place Only We Know".

Unexpectedly, before the last movie was released, he would star in "Old Paoer" with Feng Xiaogang.

Even Li Yifeng, who became famous with "Gu Jian Qi Tan", is weaker than him in terms of position and is only qualified to be his co-star.

This resource is simply overwhelming!

…

"How did you read the script?"

It was another new day. When Chen Fei got up early in the morning, it was rare to see Miss Liu reading the script in the study.

Liu Yifei turned around, scratched her head, and said with some disappointment: "It feels very obscure."

Hearing this, Fade Chen touched her head lovingly and said softly: "Don't be anxious, take your time, there is still plenty of time for you to prepare."

Chen Fei is planning to use this movie to compete in next year's Cannes International Film Festival.

According to his plan, after finishing filming "Operation Mekong" this year and after the Oscars next year, he will officially start filming the movie.

Therefore, Liu Yifei is left with as much as 5 months!

During this period, in addition to some luxury jewelry endorsement activities, her job was to thoroughly study the script.

"I will definitely work hard!"

Liu Yifei nodded, clenched her fists, and encouraged herself.

Without disturbing the hard-working Miss Liu, Chen Fei turned around and left the study, reading the news and walking to the restaurant.

Today, with "Frozen" successfully ending with a box office of 550 million, all movies released in August have come to an end.

Looking back at September, imported films are still the mainstay.

On the other hand, the next October will be quite lively.

Not only are variety shows like "Running Man" ready to go online, but there are also domestic movies such as "Detective Chinatown", "Golden Era", and "Heroes 2" ready to hit the National Day schedule.

Looking around, it looks like a hundred flowers are blooming, and I don’t know which movie will take the top spot at the box office in the end.

In addition, at the time of the explosion of film and television dramas, Wang Quan'an's punishment was also announced.

Detention for half a month, imprisonment and education for half a year...

"Tsk, tsk." Chen Fei felt inexplicably: "An 18-year-old madam? Two 30-year-old women? What kind of operation is this? To show their skinny figures? Or to show their good skills?"

He couldn't figure it out, so he simply stopped thinking about it and ate the new melon instead.

This early in the morning, Best Actor Xie and Queen Wang actually had a "reunion of the century"!

The man divorced once and had two children, while the woman divorced twice and had two children. Their respective love histories were so confusing that they could be published in books!

In this situation, after several years of going around in circles, it actually happened again.

I have to say that this world is really amazing, and the fate is even more wonderful!

However, what surprised him was that the woman's ex-husband actually shouted out, hoping that his ex-wife could be happy and that he would definitely take good care of the two children...

Seeing this, Chen Fei was a little confused.

"Is the water in the entertainment industry so turbid? Is it really a big dye vat? Can't it be washed clean?"

And the situation online is even more chaotic. Fans from both parties, agencies, and all kinds of netizens have come out one after another, making the water more and more muddy.

For this best actor Xie, Ying Huang has taken great pains and even temporarily diverted some of the public relations resources for "Macau 2".

When he received the apologetic call from Yang Shoucheng, Chen Fei felt a little sorry for the old man.

Even though they are so old, those little ones are still worried and have a headache just thinking about it.

Fortunately, the people at Feiyinghuang's agency were very well-behaved, which saved Chen Fei a lot of worry.

"Dingle bell!"

The sudden ringing of the phone interrupted Chen Fei's melon-eating mentality.

After taking a look at the caller ID, he pressed the connect button: "Director Wang? What? We just separated yesterday, and you can't wait to catch up with me today?"

"Look at the financial news, oh! No, entertainment news is also fine, it has been reported."

"Um?"

Chen Fei frowned, stood up immediately, and found the laptop that was charging.

When he casually opened an entertainment news website, he suddenly discovered that in just a few minutes, the entertainment industry had changed!

"It is reported that Alibaba officially registered on the New York Stock Exchange yesterday, with an issue price of US$68, an opening price of US$92.7, and a closing price of US$93.89 on the first day of listing, an increase of 38.07%, with a total market value of US$231.4 billion."

"Due to the influence of the parent company, the share price of Hong Kong stock Alibaba Pictures has skyrocketed!"

"Alibaba, the big brother of the Internet industry, the giant of Fortune.com, the gathering place for billionaires..."

On the other end of the phone, Wang Changtian was still muttering: "With a market value of US$231.4 billion, Ma Yun has become the richest man. Alibaba Pictures will rise rapidly this time..."

On the other end of the phone, Chen Fei only had one sentence in his mind:

"The era of high pay has officially arrived!"

…

If Huayi was previously recognized as the first listed film and television company in the industry, then with the listing of Alibaba, this No. 1 title naturally fell on Alibaba Pictures.

Perhaps the current market value of Alibaba Pictures is far less than that of Huayi, but who makes the parent company behind it so awesome?

Even if Huayi, Bona, Guangguang, Huanrui, Hairun, and Chengtian are all bundled together, they are still not as good as Alibaba's little finger.

As the helmsman of Alibaba, at this moment, Ma Yun has undoubtedly become a real "god" in the eyes of many people in China!

In less than half an hour, Chen Fei saw a large number of what Ma Yun had said before appearing on the Internet, as well as some analysis.

Such as big data, fan movies, IP plans, etc., have become the "treasure books" of many film and television companies in the industry.

Nothing else, just because these words were spoken by the "god" in their minds, Ma Yun.

At the same time, with the rise of Alibaba, many people in domestic entertainment have also successfully caught the express train. It can be said that one person has achieved enlightenment, and chickens and dogs ascend to heaven.

For example, Zhao Yanzi, who was very close to Ma Yun before, has become the envy of countless people in the industry.

"Director Wang." After briefly reading the news on the Internet, Chen Fei warned Wang Changtian sincerely in the name of ally + friend:

"You have to be careful next. According to this person's character, he will definitely not stop after returning from abroad. After all, he has always been pursuing his status as an 'industry leader'.

If we follow his plan, including you and me, we will all be among the targets Ali targets and wants to encroach on. "

Wang Changtian was silent for a moment, and then slowly responded: "I will pay attention to it, these are for old age, I must not let them take them away!"

After hanging up the phone, Chen Fei thought for a moment, then called Su Guohai, Gu Yongqiang, and Zhou Shouzi, who was still in France at this time, and told them some things.

The basic structure of Feiyue Film and Television has been established, and he is not afraid of Ali, but people's hearts are changeable, and Lao Ma's mouth is very good at deceiving...

Therefore, you still have to get insurance.

…

No matter how noisy the outside world is, the methods of private companies will never affect state-owned enterprises.

In the China Film Conference Hall, La Geokang was warmly receiving the heads of Universal Pictures who came all the way from Hollywood.

Representatives from both sides had a meaningful meeting. Although the participants came from different cultural backgrounds, a bridge of communication had already been quietly built.

On the conference table, a film project proposal called "The Great Wall" was lying quietly there. This was the first time that it was fully displayed in front of Laokang and his team.

This project combines many elements such as magic, action, and adventure, and is directed by a top international team with an extremely strong production lineup!

La Geikang was flipping through the complete planning book and staring at the ppt on the big screen, his eyes shining with excitement and anticipation.

At this moment, he seemed to have transformed into an explorer in the film industry, deeply attracted by the unknown journey he was about to embark on.

As the professionals from Universal Pictures narrated, his endless enthusiasm for the film and his strong desire for successful cooperation surged in his heart.

Once such a project is successful, it will be a huge political achievement, enough to allow him to be re-elected for several terms!

Half an hour later, the head of Universal Pictures stopped talking and turned his head to look at La Beikang.

"Director La, this project is equally important to Universal Pictures. We have determined that the male lead will be played by a top Hollywood actor. We also hope that you will pay attention to the selection of the female lead and director..."

"Don't worry, Mr. Otero." La Beikang smiled confidently: "I already have suitable candidates. I will contact them later and invite them to China Film Studio. Let's express our sincerity together and try to convince them."

"Oh?" Romulo Otero asked curiously: "I wonder who La Dong is going to invite? Is it someone I know or am familiar with?"

La Geokang nodded slowly: "I believe Mr. Otero must know them. I am going to let Chen Fei take the director's position, and I am going to invite Liu Yifei to play the female lead."

Hearing these two familiar names, Romulo Otero's eyes suddenly lit up!

"Excellent! La Dong! You gave me a big surprise!"

If it were Chen Fei and Liu Yifei, let alone Universal Pictures, no company in the world would object to this combination.

Of course, the premise of all this is that they can come up with conditions to impress Chen Fei.

Romulo Otero is still somewhat confident: "I have cooperated with Fei before, and I believe he will not reject me as an old friend."

Hearing this, La Gekang felt a little at ease.

As long as Chen Fei and Liu Yifei can be brought in, this project will be at least half successful!
