Chapter 759: I Have the Advantage, I Will Continue to Make a Fool of Myself! Here Comes the Guy Who Wants to Get Something for Nothing!

After attending dozens of cocktail parties and waiting until the end of the Oscar nomination ballot submission time, Chen Fei finally said goodbye to the drunken party.

From this day on, the public relations activities of "The Revenant" have officially come to an end.

The next step is to wait for the nomination results to be announced. If the nomination can be obtained, then the follow-up is to continue public relations.

But if you can't get a nomination, you can only end it sadly and wait for the next year to fight again.

…

Waltons Pictures, inside the reception room.

Leonardo sat on the sofa exhausted, his whole body filled with a strong smell of wine, as if he had just been fished out of a wine jar.

The amount of money and energy he invested in public relations this time can be said to be unprecedented!

Chen Fei helped him build momentum to the point of "showing off his ugliness", and he himself was also rushing forward with all his strength. These days, he was either meeting other college members or on the way to meet them.

In the past few months, he almost felt numb after eating big meals. Chicken and steak tasted almost like plastic.

Chen Fei signaled his assistant to pour a cup of strong coffee, served it to Leonardo, and then said: "You can have a good rest in the next half month.

You don't have to worry too much about the nomination. I've already told people like Spielberg, Martin Scorsese, Robert Zemeckis, and Clint Eastwood that they will put their votes in. For you.

Also, Kathleen Kennedy, CEO of Lucasfilm, a subsidiary of Walt Disney Studios, happened to be elected vice president of the Academy. She also promised to vote for you for Best Actor, and she can also influence A lot of people voted for it.

So, the advantage is on our side! "

Natasha, who was sitting next to her, smiled and added: "Academy President Tom Sherak publicly stated that he hopes to maintain the traditional charm of the Oscars, but also hopes to keep pace with the times and adapt to the changing film market. This is definitely a good sign for us.”

"Pfft... rejuvenation?" Leonardo suddenly laughed: "A group of old men whose average age is over 65 years old, how reliable can the rejuvenation they shout out be?"

Chen Fei spread his hands slightly and said in a noncommittal tone: "This is a rare rejuvenation for the academy."

Leonardo took a deep breath: "In this case, I will continue to "be ugly" to the end!"

Chen Fei nodded slightly: "In the next half month, I will go back to China first, and when the Golden Globe Awards ceremony starts, I will rush back to Los Angeles."

The public relations work has come to an end for the time being, and he has nothing to do if he stays here. He might as well go back and continue to follow up on "Operation Mekong".

As for "Avengers 2", the latter part of the movie is almost over. He has been paying attention to it during this period and there are no major problems.

Leonardo yawned: "Ok, tell me before you leave and I will take you to the airport."

After that, he stood up and staggered outside, ready to go home and sleep with him for a few days and nights before continuing to go out and make a fool of himself.

After watching Leonardo leave, Chen Fei looked at Natasha and talked to her about another matter.

"How is the public relations going for "Dangal"? Is there any hope of getting nominated?"

To this question, Natasha answered simply: "Yes!"

"That's good."

Chen Fei smiled with satisfaction, stood up, and also walked towards the door.

The public relations operation has come to an end for the time being, and naturally there will be nothing for him in the company. Then he can get off work early and go back to have a good night's sleep.

…

At the same time, in China, the heroine TV series "The Legend of Wu Mei Niang" starring Fan Bingbing was officially launched.

In the play, she interpreted Wu Zetian in her youth with her superb acting skills. Not only was she beautiful and moving, but she also had extraordinary wisdom and courage, which attracted the enthusiastic attention of audiences across the country.

Whenever the series is aired, countless viewers will stay in front of the TV just to see Fan Bingbing's version of Wu Zetian.

Her performance is real and vivid, fully displaying Wu Zetian's charm and wisdom.

Of course, what netizens pay more attention to are the countless "white, round upper hemispheres", which have attracted the "love" of many male viewers.

On Weibo, netizens expressed that Fan Bingbing not only has outstanding acting skills, but also the two "hemispheres" are extremely charming, which contributed greatly to the ratings of "The Legend of Wu Mei Niang".

As a platform, Mango Channel has also gained a lot of attention. Whenever "The Legend of Wu Mei Niang" is broadcast, it is the time with the largest number of online viewers!

Although the ratings of "Red Sorghum" have been affected a lot, it is not that big in comparison.

The TV series adapted from the work of Zhou Xun + Zhu Yawen + Nobel Prize for Literature focuses on making progress while maintaining stability.

In addition to these popular dramas, the box office performance of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: Yunnan Worm Valley" and "One Step Away" are the ones that the industry is most concerned about.

The former is rapidly moving towards a box office of 1.5 billion, and it is estimated that it will reach its goal in the next few days.

Because the latter won a spot in the main competition section of the Berlin International Film Festival, the sluggish box office once again ushered in an increase, but it soon fell again.

After 7 days of release, the box office revenue was 386 million.

This result obviously could not meet Jiang Wen's requirements, but he was powerless to change the situation, because the film's ratings and reputation were declining, and there was no way to stop it.

…

On the evening of the 26th, Chen Fei appeared at the Capital Airport very low-key.

With the cover of the crowd, he successfully left the airport and got on the business car that came to pick him up.

"Did you miss me?"

In the back seat, Liu Yifei blinked her watery eyes and stared at Chen Fei.

Chen Fei's answer to her question was very simple.

Kiss!

This night was destined not to be too peaceful.

At noon, Chen Fei sat up from the bed with his sore waist.

After tucking in the corners of the quilt for Liu Yifei who was sleeping soundly beside him, he walked out of the bedroom quietly, changed into sportswear, and went to the gym to exercise for half an hour.

Then, he returned to the villa, eating a hearty breakfast while reading the news on the Internet.

For ordinary people, today is just an ordinary day, but for the film and television industry, it seems like a big earthquake!

In the first ray of sunshine in the morning, a heavy announcement from Alibaba Pictures was like a bomb, which detonated the entire mainland film and television industry.

Zhao Yanzi, a director and capital who has become famous in the film and television industry, actually bought 1.93 billion shares of Alibaba Pictures with a huge amount of funds of 3.088 billion Hong Kong dollars.

Overnight, her shareholding ratio reached 9.18%, officially promoted to the second largest shareholder of Alibaba Pictures.

This news is like a boulder thrown into a calm lake, stirring up layers of ripples!

No one expected that Zhao Yanzi would make such a big move.

So far, as one of the four Dan and Shuang Bing, she has officially become one of the top capitals in the circle.

What is even more shocking is that Li Lianjie, an internationally renowned actor and known as the "Kung Fu Emperor", also announced that he will officially serve as a non-executive director of Alibaba Pictures.

The joining of these two people has undoubtedly injected new vitality and influence into Alibaba Pictures.

As these two pieces of news came out, the Hong Kong stock price of Alibaba Pictures soared, investors rushed in, and the market heat of Alibaba Pictures continued to heat up...

The heated discussions on the Internet continued, but Chen Fei did not pay much attention to it.

He curled his lips and muttered: "Hey, the empty-handed white wolf is coming?"

In addition to the "heavy news" about Alibaba Pictures, there were also many theaters and media reports that landed on the Weibo hot search list.

"After 10 days of release, the box office of "Ghost Blows Out the Light: Yunnan Worm Valley" has exceeded 1.35 billion yuan, only 150 million away from its predecessor "The Lost Tomb."

"The Sino-foreign co-production "Pacific Rim 2", jointly produced by Feiyue Film and Television, China Film Group, and Shanghai Film Group, has reached 1.68 billion yuan in box office after 25 days of release, and there is no hope of breaking through 2 billion yuan."

"The movie "One Step Away", produced by Buyi Lehu Films and directed by Jiang Wen, has seen its daily new box office drop to 16.13 million yuan, and its box office potential is about to be exhausted "It is hopeless to break through 1 billion. "

"The comedy love movie "Micro Love" produced by Huayi, directed by Gu Changwei, and starring Yang Ying, Chen He and others, won 36.57 million on the first day of its release. "

"Many Hollywood movies have officially announced that they will be released in January... "Kung Fu" directed by Zhou Xingchi will be re-released... "Back to 20" starring the popular young actor Lu Han is scheduled for January 8..."

Chen Fei's eyes fell on "Micro Love".

It was beyond his expectation that Gu Changwei's first commercial movie had a good box office performance on the first day!

"Xu Ke should really ask Gu Changwei for advice. Look at the actress trained by Director Gu. Some people even say that she has good acting skills. It's really rare."

While muttering, Chen Fei unconsciously thought of the coquettish actions of Gu Changwei and Jiang Wenli.

The former habitually keeps in touch with the latter, and the latter seems to have recently gone on vacation to France with a young man, as if they are already playing separately.

There are rumors in the circle that the two are going to divorce, but Chen Fei thinks it is unlikely.

If they really want to divorce, they will not wait until today. The interests of both parties are too deeply entangled, how can they leave easily just by saying divorce?

…

After breakfast, Chen Fei drove to the company.

The company seems to be preparing for some audition activities today. From a distance, Chen Fei saw a large number of media and reporters blocking the large square outside the company, and from time to time one or two actors would walk out of the gate.

He did not join in the fun, but turned the car head into the underground garage, and took the elevator to the editing department.

"Mr. Chen?"

When several employees saw him, they were a little unresponsive for a while.

Obviously in yesterday's news report, Chen Fei and Leonardo were still attending a cocktail party in Hollywood, why did they return home today?

Chen Fei did not explain anything, but asked directly: "How is it? Is the editing going smoothly?"

"It's going smoothly." The person in charge came to his senses immediately and quickly stood up to make way.

Chen Fei sat down on the chair without hesitation and began to check frame by frame.

At the same time, in Shiyi Culture, Wang Jinghua's office.

Looking at Zhu Yawen sitting opposite, Wang Jinghua looked a little lonely.

She had expected this day to come a long time ago, but when this day really came, she couldn't help but feel a little reluctant and regretful.

"Yu Wen, have you...really thought about it?"

Opposite the desk, Zhu Yawen chuckled and said: "Sister Hua, I have sent you a thousand miles away, but you must say goodbye eventually."

"well."

Wang Jinghua sighed, picked up the signature pen on the table, and wrote her name on the termination contract one by one.

A few minutes later, Zhu Yawen organized the information and put it all into the document bag.

"I'll give it to you."

Wang Jinghua stood up and personally sent Zhu Yawen out of the company.

She did not withhold anything, nor did she deliberately press the contract to prevent Zhu Yawen from leaving.

Not only because the contract period between the two parties has expired, but more importantly, behind Zhu Yawen stands the giant Buddha Chen Fei!

If she dares to embarrass Zhu Yawen, then the threat to Shibu Culture will definitely be even greater!

But if the two parties can get together and relax, there will still be some incestuous feelings, which may be used in the future.

~

When the time came to 12 o'clock, an announcement from Shiyi Culture appeared directly on the headlines of major entertainment news websites.

"Based on the future development needs of the actor and his studio, Shi Chu Culture respects Mr. Zhu Yawen's choice and officially ends the ten-year cooperative relationship with him. The two parties will part ways peacefully and will not renew the contract."

Compared with the various conflicts and controversies that have occurred when other actors and their agencies terminated their contracts, the "breakup" statement between Zhu Yawen and Shiyi Culture appears to be much more peaceful.

But even so, many people are still curious about the story behind it.

What was the reason that made this pair of partners who had been partners for ten years choose to break up? Did Zhu Yawen have better development opportunities, or was there something wrong within Shiyi Culture? Or did the two parties have irreconcilable differences during the cooperation process?

While many people in the circle are talking about it, Zhu Yawen's personal Weibo and studio Weibo have also updated the content:

"I am very grateful to Sister Hua for taking care of and helping me over the past ten years, which has benefited me a lot. I hope we can still help each other and move forward in the future..."

With Zhu Yawen's response, the topic of speculation among people in the film and television industry suddenly changed.

Will his departure have any impact on the future of Shidi Culture? Or, is this a sign of internal changes in Shichen culture?

But no matter what the reason is, it cannot change the fact!

That is, Wang Jinghua, who was once known as the "Godmother of the Entertainment Industry", seems to be in trouble now.

She once founded Shiyi Culture and trained countless new stars in the entertainment industry, but now, there are very few talents under her, and surprisingly there are only two or three kittens left.

Until now, with the departure of Zhu Yawen, her most famous artist is only "Mou Girl" Zhou Dongyu.

Looking around, the decline of Shiba culture seems to be a foregone conclusion.

It is generally estimated in the industry that Zhou Dongyu may not be able to stay for long.

The reason is that in order to pave the way for her son, Wang Jinghua is consuming her own heritage and past connections regardless of cost, resulting in a serious tilt in resources. This approach undoubtedly exacerbates the decline of Shiba culture.

When Chen Fei finished the work at hand and saw the news on the Internet, he couldn't help but be stunned for a moment.

When Zhu Yawen chose to start a personal studio, Chen Fei specifically asked him if he wanted to be affiliated with Feiyue Film and Television?

However, his proposal was rejected by Zhu Yawen.

The guy made it clear that he was not ready to part ways with Wang Jinghua for the time being.

But I never thought that only a few years later, the two parties would officially announce their breakup.

After thinking for a moment, Chen Fei found Zhu Yawen's phone number and dialed it directly.

"Hello? Brother Fei, haha, what's the matter?"

"I'm watching the news...is this an official 'breakup'?"

"That's right." On the other end of the phone, Zhu Yawen said bluntly: "Sister Hua gave 70% of her resources to her son. The contract has just expired. There is no point in staying any longer. I might as well go out on my own. Once you break in, you might be even stronger than in the company.”

Chen Fei raised his eyebrows: "Already have a new project on hand?"

"Hey, thanks to you, after "Red Sorghum" became a hit, many companies sent me new scripts. I'm going to research and see if there are any film and television drama projects that are suitable for me."

Upon hearing this, Chen Fei immediately said: "It just so happens that I have a good movie project here. How about you come and help play the second male lead?"

Second male?

Zhu Yawen was slightly stunned and couldn't help but be curious: "What project is it?"

"It's the script that the company just reviewed not long ago."

"The Worst Man in the World?"

Zhu Yawen's voice suddenly rose a lot. If this was really the project, he would be willing to be the second or third male lead!

"Yes." Chen Fei simply explained: "This is an award-winning film. Liu Yifei is the female lead. I will be responsible for directing it myself, and by the way, I will play the male lead..."

Hearing this, Zhu Yawen immediately stopped hesitating and interrupted without hesitation: "Okay, that's enough, I'll take the role!"

"Okay, then you take the time to come to the company to sign a contract and take the script with you. The specific start time will be after the Spring Festival."

"Okay, I'll go there tomorrow."

Zhu Yawen responded happily. After hanging up the phone, he still couldn't contain the excitement and excitement in his heart.

Originally, he was a little confused about starting his own business. After all, after losing the protection of the company, his future development would definitely be limited.

But he never expected that he had just terminated his contract with his former company, and Chen Fei gave him a big gift!

Although it was only a male second role, he could act with Chen Fei and Liu Yifei, an opportunity that he might not be able to get even if he got two male first roles in movies!

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

Zhu Yawen was inexplicably a little emotional. If he hadn't met Chen Fei, he would probably still be working hard in silence, trying to find the day to come out, right?

There are dozens of people in the 02 class, but there are only a few who can gain a foothold in the entertainment industry.
