Chapter 771 Who Said I Would Marry You? The Old Man Has Two Faces!

After the premiere of "Charlotte Troubles", Chen Fei left the scene together with Ning Hao and Guo Fan.

As for the subsequent luncheon, the three of them stopped joining in the fun.

Because facing a large group of media and second- and third-tier artists, the three of them will inevitably become "living targets" and will definitely cause inevitable chaos.

After parting with the two of them, Chen Fei returned directly to the villa, and then went straight to the airport with Liu Yifei, who had already packed up, preparing to rush to the magical city.

As the Spring Festival approaches, the "Ready Player One Dream Theme Park" built in the Magic City has officially opened. It's a good time to visit recently.

At the same time, taking this opportunity, Chen Fei was also going to take a look at the specific conditions of the theme park's internal construction and check for any deficiencies.

Next, if the revenue is good enough, the "Ready Player One Dream Theme Park" will be built on a large scale.

Beijing, Guangzhou, Shenzhen, South Korea, Neon, Singapore, Xiangjiang, Wanwan and other places are all target areas for future expansion of theme parks.

At the same time, just as Chen Fei and Liu Yifei boarded a plane to Shanghai in a low-key manner, news about the premiere of "Charlotte Trouble" suddenly exploded on the Internet!

The main reason is because of his "bold words".

"This is a movie that is not inferior to "The Flowers of the Heart". The box office will definitely exceed 1 billion+, and it will even chase higher..."

This passage was like a bombshell, instantly detonating the enthusiasm of the entire film industry and netizens!

It is no exaggeration to say that his words not only soared the audience's expectations for the movie, but also broke people's expectations for the movie's box office performance to some extent.

For a time, his "bold words" quickly became the focus of heated discussions and spread among social media and movie fans.

The Happy Twist Team is going crazy.

You know, they have been working hard for nearly half a year, running around to promote, appear on programs, and do some screenings.

But after so much hard work, it wasn't even as effective as Chen Fei's words.

In the afternoon of that day, news about "Charlotte Troubles" went directly to Weibo's hot search list, and it stayed there for a long time, directly crushing the popularity of all movies in the same period.

Many production companies in the industry have cast envious glances at Happy Twist. With such great support from Chen Fei, this company may really be able to make some achievements.

However, the number “1 billion+” still attracts many people’s doubts.

After all, "Heart Blossoms on the Road" has the blessing of a series of well-known actors in the industry such as Chen Fei, Huang Bo, Yang Mi, Zhou Xun, etc., coupled with a top-notch script and story, this has achieved a small gain.

But the script of "Charlotte's Troubles" comes from a stage play, and except for Shen Teng and Ma Li, none of the actors are very famous.

Can such a work really achieve 1 billion+ achievements?

Many people are looking forward to the upcoming Spring Festival and are ready to test the quality of this movie.

Related hot searches continued until the afternoon before being suppressed by new news.

"It is reported that Tangde Pictures, held by Fan Bingbing and Zhao Yanzi, was officially listed on the Shenzhen Stock Exchange today. Two well-known actresses in the industry were present in person to ring the bell and speak."

“On the day of Tangde Films’ IPO, the market value successfully soared to RMB 15 billion.”

"Zhao Yanzi and Fan Bingbing, their net worths have both surged by 1 billion, and they have been successfully promoted to new forces and new capital in the industry. The former is also the major shareholder of Alibaba Pictures..."

At this point, another new capital in the film and television industry has just come online, and we are one step closer to the era when capital flourishes.

Magic City, inside the hotel.

Liu Yifei looked at the news on the Internet and was quite surprised: "The net worth increased by 1 billion? How amazing!"

Chen Fei asked with a smile: "What? Are you envious? If you want, I can help you make Hongxingwu a listed company, and let you become the chairman of a listed film and television company."

"Let's forget it, it's too much trouble."

Liu Yifei felt a headache when she thought about not being able to sleep in after the company went public.

Life is better now. If there is a movie, I can shoot, and if there is no movie, I can sleep in. I don’t have to worry about anything, not to mention how comfortable it is.

And she never has to worry about running out of money. Even if she is now promoting her retirement from the film industry, just the share of the movie roles she has participated in will be enough to make her live a very comfortable life for the rest of her life.

Even worse, she still has a big director and a big-money boyfriend, so she doesn't have to worry about it for the rest of her life.

Time flies and the night gradually falls.

When the daylight dimmed, Liu Yifei took out a large mask from her suitcase and covered half of her face tightly.

"Let's go out and play. I want to go ride the Ferris wheel."

"good."

Chen Fei nodded and walked out the door hand in hand with her.

Tomorrow is New Year's Eve, and tonight's Ready Player One Dream Theme Park is particularly lively. In addition to the bright and dazzling light show, there is also a specially prepared fireworks show at 12 o'clock in the morning.

The two of them ran among the crowd and had a great time.

There were shouts and screams everywhere, and no one noticed that there was actually a top international director and top actress running around like a child in the park.

At 11:45, the two got on the Ferris wheel.

At 12 o'clock, as fireworks exploded in the sky, the Ferris wheel just reached its highest position.

Liu Yifei, who was still watching the fireworks, suddenly turned around, reached out and pulled down Chen Fei's mask under his puzzled gaze, and put her lips straight on him.

The fragrance and sweetness flowed between the two tongues.

At this moment, time seemed to be frozen, and the fireworks above their heads became more and more brilliant and dazzling!

After getting off the Ferris wheel, the two did not go anywhere else to play, but went straight to the hotel as if they had agreed.

Outside the window, the bright moonlight has filled the sky, and its beauty and charm are enough to make people intoxicated.

In the room, the originally bright lights have been extinguished, leaving only dim fluorescent lights swaying in the quiet air, like a little hope, flickering a weak but firm light in the dark.

A sweet breath began to permeate the air, and the fiery feeling quietly rose, as if it had aroused a little wave in the quiet night.

In this atmosphere, people's emotions were also silently aroused and began to become excited.

Liu Yifei's voice rang out from time to time, like the cry of a kitten, with an indescribable charm that makes people indulge in it and unable to extricate themselves.

On the 30th, both of them got up very early.

Liu Yifei was going back to her hometown and went to her grandmother's house with Liu Xiaoli to celebrate the New Year.

Chen Fei was going back to the capital to celebrate the New Year with his grandfather.

Men and women in love always want to stick together all the time, wishing they would never be separated, but after all, the two were not married yet, and Liu Yifei couldn't go back with Chen Fei to celebrate the New Year.

Therefore, the two had to reluctantly part at the airport.

"Remember to tell me when you get home!"

"Well, you too, report safety when you go back."

If it weren't for the crowds at the airport, Miss Liu would have definitely been in Chen Fei's arms by now.

After New Year's Eve, it was the Oscars ceremony, and Chen Fei had to fly to Los Angeles on the second day of the New Year, which meant that the two would be separated for at least 10 days!

Just thinking about it, Miss Liu was full of reluctance.

"After I marry you, we will never be separated. I will take you wherever I go. How about that?"

When Chen Fei said this, Liu Yifei blushed.

Just at this moment, the boarding reminder sounded from the loudspeaker. She quickly picked up her bag and walked towards the boarding gate, muttering: "Who... who said they would marry you?"

Chen Fei took her boarding pass and walked beside her, saying cheerfully: "I don't care. You have to marry me or not. If it doesn't work, I will find a rope to tie you back and let you give birth to a big fat boy for me."

"Bah! I don't want to!"

Although she was full of reluctance and no, Liu Yifei's eyes were already bent with a smile, full of longing.

...

After seeing Liu Yifei off, Chen Fei also got on the plane smoothly.

After connecting to the Internet, he opened Weibo and watched the "apology meeting" held by Prince Long in the capital with great interest.

This apology meeting was broadcast live to the entire network. Looking around, there were at least more than 300 media outlets at the scene. It was so lively!

It is no exaggeration to say that all the movie premieres held by the Chinese film industry this year were not as grand as the apology meeting of Prince Long.

This shows how much attention the industry pays to him!

However, while watching Prince Long crying and saying that he was wrong on the stage, Chen Fei suddenly remembered the movie "The Taoist Goes Down the Mountain" in which he personally participated.

If nothing unexpected happens, Brother Chen Kai should have kept the role of Prince Long.

What's even more outrageous is that the group of people on the review committee also approved him!

I don't know how intense, lively, and even explosive the domestic public opinion will be after the official release of this movie!

In the evening, Chen Fei finally returned to the courtyard.

Just after walking in from the alley, looking around, the big red lanterns and spring couplets have been hung high, and the "inverted blessing" on the door is even more neatly and symmetrically pasted.

Pushing the door open, he saw the old man sweeping the leaves scattered in the corner of the courtyard with a broom.

Seeing someone coming in, the old man looked over.

When he saw Chen Fei for the first time, a smile immediately appeared on the old man's face, but then his eyes looked behind him.

When he saw that there was no one behind him, the smile on the old man's face suddenly froze.

"You came back alone?"

"Yes! Alone!" Chen Fei was carrying two large bags of New Year's goods and smiled happily: "I didn't have time to come back last year, but this year I finally have a few days of free time. I'll come back to spend the New Year with you."

Chen Fei smiled happily.

However, soon, his warm face was put on the cold buttocks.

"Why did you come back alone? I'm not too old to move, so why do I need you to accompany me? Do I need you? You're already 31 after the Chinese New Year, and you don't even have a wife. I'm ashamed for you. Look at the Zhang family, they're almost having a great-grandson..."

From a distance, Chen Fei could even see spit coming out of the old man's mouth.

If he dared to go over now, he might just spit on his face!

With a helpless bitter smile, Chen Fei hurriedly explained: "You've found your granddaughter-in-law, but she has to go home for the Chinese New Year, after all, she hasn't married yet, so she can't just follow you, right?"

"Huh?!"

The old man pursed his lips, raised his white eyebrows, and asked curiously: "You really found her, didn't you lie to me?"

"Why are you lying to me? When she comes back, I will ask her to come to your door to wish you a happy New Year. This should be done, right?"

"Which girl is she from?"

"She's the one who brings you food and drinks every now and then. Aren't you very satisfied with her? So I kidnapped her back for you."

"Girl Sissi?"

"Yes, it's her!"

"Oh, my good boy, I finally figured it out! It's not in vain that I have spent so many years scolding... oh no, it's teaching..."

In an instant, the old man suddenly turned from anger to joy. He leaned the broom against the wall and walked towards the kitchen. At the same time, he did not forget to shout to Chen Fei:

"You go wash your hands first and wait while I prepare some dishes. Let's have a good drink tonight and celebrate!"

Watching the old man's back disappear from the kitchen door and into the yard, Chen Fei couldn't help but twitch the corner of his mouth.

He suddenly realized that without the explanations just now, he might not even have the New Year's Eve dinner tonight!

"Isn't he just 31? Isn't he very big? Does this mean he's an older man? And he's still a bachelor?"

While muttering, he walked into the living room and took out fruits, melon seeds, snacks and other things for backup.

The old man will definitely watch the Spring Festival Gala tonight. This is already a must-have part of every year.

…

"What is all this acting about?"

In the restaurant, watching the Spring Festival Gala program on TV, the old man muttered and almost cursed.

A group of young people were singing and dancing, which looked quite festive, but the show was really hard to describe.

Especially the "forced reunion" operation really confused Chen Fei, and I don't know what the director team thought that such an embarrassing program could be selected.

From his point of view, in the entire Spring Festival Gala, only Shen Teng and Ma Li's anti-corruption skit could barely draw a smile.

Apart from that, nothing else caught his eye!

But even so, Chen Fei still forced himself to watch the entire Spring Festival Gala with the old man.

This can be regarded as a very rare reunion moment in the year. If it doesn't look good, it doesn't look good. Just think of it as a not-so-delicious dish to go with wine.

Just after 12 o'clock, the Lunar New Year comes quietly.

At the same time, the Chinese-language film market is also facing an unprecedented fierce battle!

The high-profile domestic blockbusters such as "Charlotte", "Wolf Totem", "Army of Heaven", "Up in the Sky", "Macau 2", "Zhong Kui Conquers the Demon: Snow Demon", etc., are in After a long period of anticipation and warm-up, it finally landed in major theaters across the country in the early morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year.

At this moment, the most competitive Spring Festival period of the year officially begins, attracting the attention of countless viewers!

The old man has to stay up late, but Chen Fei, a junior, naturally doesn't have to stay up late.

After saying Happy New Year and good night to Liu Yifei, he went to bed early.

At 6 o'clock in the morning, he was called up and started to help make dumplings.

At the same time, with the arrival of the Spring Festival, New Year greeting calls, text messages, social messages and Weibo messages from all over the country flew over like snowflakes early in the morning. The number was so large that he could almost drown him!

Although he was busy, Chen Fei still did not forget to reply.

Among these news, there are many heated discussions and expectations for movies scheduled for the Spring Festival.

"Director Chen! Let me tell you good news. Within 6 days of its release, "Beijing Meets Seattle: Love Letter" has already exceeded 700 million at the box office!"

On the phone, Xue Xiaolu could not hide his excitement.

This achievement is undoubtedly a full recognition for her!

Chen Fei said jokingly: "Director Xue, how about this New Year's gift? It's pretty good, isn't it?"

"That's great!"

"Okay, welcome."

Chen Fei responded with a smile.

Just as the call ended, a new call came in from the other side.

After taking a look at La Geikang's name on the caller ID, Chen Fei pressed the answer button.

"La Dong, happy new year."

"Well, you too, happy new year."

After greeting each other in a routine manner, the two chatted a few words about the Spring Festival stalls.

But just when Chen Fei was about to hang up the phone, La Geokang suddenly mentioned another thing: "I heard someone say that when the Directors Association convened a meeting of directors in the industry some time ago, they specially sent you an invitation letter. , but you rejected it?”

Hearing this, Chen Fei raised his brows slightly and was quite surprised: "What? Did someone go to you to file a complaint against me?"

"Yeah." La Geikang didn't hesitate: "Some people reported to the higher-ups that your behavior is not conducive to unity."

"Pfft, hahaha!" Chen Fei stopped holding back on the spot and laughed out loud: "So? What do they mean? Let me go and plead guilty?"

"That's not true. I just want you to rejoin the association and participate in the selection of major film festivals and awards in the mainland."

Chen Fei chuckled: "And then become their stepping stone, carry their sedan chairs, recognize them as godfathers, and lick their toes?"

On the other end of the phone, La Beikang fell silent immediately.

"La Dong, I don't want to cause any trouble for you during the Chinese New Year. Please tell them for me and let them give up. If you have any tricks, just come over. I will follow them. If you have the ability, come and try. Just touch each other and see who is afraid of whom and that's it..."

Listening to the busy signal from the phone, La Geikang had a wry smile on his face.

He knew this would happen. Although Chen Fei was usually very good-tempered and always smiling, this guy was very strong.

The old guys in the association were facing him, which was a tough nut to crack.

"Forget it, I don't care. Anyway, "Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy" and "Operation Mekong" are not the projects controlled by China Film. I don't have the final say on whether they participate in the Golden Rooster Awards. This phone call can also be done."

After muttering a few words, La Peikang threw the phone aside and turned to make dumplings.

As for those old guys, let them worry!
