Chapter 838 Wedding? Business? Are the Two Linked? One Wrong Step! All Wrong Steps!
Chapter 838 Wedding? Business? Is there any connection between the two? ...one wrong step! Wrong step!
"Co-produced by Feiyue Pictures, China Film, Shanghai Film, Wanda, Enlight, Golden Shield and other companies, Chen Fei serves as the director and starring, Zhang Hanyu, Li Bingbing, Chen Baoguo, Xie Bao, Liu Shishi and others participated in the crime, action The movie "Operation Mekong" has a total box office revenue of 965 million in 3 days of release!"
"The entire crew of "Detective Chinatown 2" appeared at the airport and will go to Hollywood for filming."
"A reporter photographed director Chen Fei's personal assistant appearing downstairs of the General Administration, predicting that Feiyue Film and Television is suspected of making another big move..."
"The movie "Chasing the Dragon", co-produced by Feiyue Pictures and Golden Harvest and starring Andy Lau, Tony Leung Ka Fai and Zheng Zeshi, was officially announced today."
"The imported Hollywood blockbuster "Mission: Impossible 5" has been withdrawn from theaters across the country due to exhaustion of its box office potential, with a total box office revenue of 835 million."
…
As the latest entertainment, film and television information news continues to emerge, colleagues in the film industry are shocked to find that there is only one imported animated film left in the mainland film market!
As for other imported blockbusters, they have all been taken off the shelves.
However, even so, other domestic films are still struggling.
Nothing else, just because "Operation Mekong" is too fierce, too strong, and too cruel!
That powerful box office siphon effect directly suppressed many domestic films in the same period, and they couldn't even lift their heads!
It was only released for 3 days, and the box office has reached 1 billion. How can we catch up with this horse?
"The situation is now very clear. This National Day period will definitely be the period when "Operation Mekong" will be the best, and if nothing else happens, this film will definitely get the key extension qualification.
A full 60-day screening period, support from the ministry, and none of the competitors during the same period..."
At this point in the analysis, La Sheikang can already draw a conclusion:
"The Chinese-language film market is about to see another top-notch film with a box office of over 3 billion!"
He was very glad that China Film Group could participate in the investment of this movie. After all, this was Shui Lingling's political achievement, and it was also the basis for him to secure his position as the bottom.
However, Jiang Zhihao, opposite him, couldn't sit still.
You know, the higher the box office of "Operation Mekong" is, the greater the losses for Anle Pictures' theater chains will be!
And the most important thing is that the movie theaters owned by Anle Pictures were built on land purchased by the company, and the merchants in the mall were also introduced by Anle Company independently.
Nowadays, passenger traffic has dropped, theater revenue has plummeted, and mall revenue has also plummeted...
In the end, this is a disaster!
"La Dong, is there really nothing you can do?" He was not willing to just sit back and wait for death, and wanted to try harder.
La Sheikang spread his hands and said helplessly: "That boy doesn't give me any face now, and there's nothing I can do about it?"
"You are the chairman of China Film Group Corporation..." Jiang Zhiru was already getting a little anxious.
"Huh? Chairman of China Film and Television?" La Sheikang's face suddenly darkened. He was actually very dissatisfied with Chen Fei's behavior of not giving him face, but he really couldn't do anything about it now: "Feiyue Film and Television is not a small company, you Do you think I can use my power to overwhelm others? "
Hearing these words, Jiang Zhihao suddenly fell silent.
Indeed, according to the current size of Feiyue Film and Television, there is really no need to give face to any mainland film and television company, not even China Film.
"Let me show you a clear path. You may still have some hope if you go to the headquarters now. It's useless to stay here."
"La Dong, then I will...take my leave."
With a livid face, Jiang Zhihao quickly walked out of the China Film Group Building.
So far, the share of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon 2: The Sword of the Dark" has belonged to China Film, which is also the price Jiang Zhihao came to ask for help.
But the problem now is that even though he has paid immeasurable costs and resources, and even used the favors he accumulated many years ago, he still can't even see Chen Fei's face.
This is very embarrassing!
It's obvious that someone is going to mess with you, but you don't even have a chance to resist or even explain.
For a moment, a deep sense of powerlessness filled Jiang Zhihao's heart, almost engulfing him completely!
"Director Jiang, where are we going now?"
"Go to the General Administration. I'm going to try. There will definitely be a turn for the better, even if it means risking my old face..."

Inside the villa.
"Little lazy cat, it's already 12 o'clock, how long are you going to sleep until? The sun is already shining from your butt to your head..."
On the bed in the bedroom, Chen Fei patted Liu Yifei's erect area, trying to wake her up and ask her to go downstairs to eat.
On normal days, his behavior of taking advantage during the day would definitely attract Miss Liu's eyes and complaints.
However, today, Liu Yifei hugged the pillow and remained motionless.
"Oh, if you're hungry, just go and eat first. I don't want to get up. I still want to sleep. I'm so sleepy!"
Last night, the two went to the dance studio to experience the "couple dance" again. They were so excited that they didn't really fall asleep until 4:30 in the morning.
Chen Fei's physique is relatively good and he recovers quickly, so he only slept for 5 hours before he was full of energy again.
But because Liu Yifei developed new postures, she exerted a lot of physical energy and could not return her sore legs to normal condition in a short period of time.
Therefore, staying in bed became her best choice.
"How about I bring the food to you in the bedroom?"
"I don't want to move."
"Then shall I feed you?"
"Don't want to chew."
"and you……"
"Oh, I'm going to bed, so hurry up and get out! Stop bothering me. It's all your fault. I'm so tired."
Facing Liu Yifei, who was completely angry when she woke up, Chen Fei was quickly defeated and was "scolded" out of the bedroom in despair.
Helpless, he had no choice but to eat it himself.
While drinking porridge, he watched the news.
There is nothing to pay attention to in film and television news, because "Operation Mekong" is so powerful and so impressive that all film and television news in the same period were suppressed.
However, the entertainment gossip side is quite lively, and everyone is discussing the preparations for Huang Xiaoming and Yang Ying's wedding.
Different from the traditional wedding model of ordinary people, the wedding of these two people was more like a grand carnival.
Not only did they vigorously invite people from the media circle, but they also worked closely with major brand sponsors to jointly build momentum for the wedding.
From time to time, photos of weddings will leak out on the Internet. Looking around, you can see all kinds of high-end luxury and big-name weddings... it is simply a dazzling array of things to see.
I don’t know which media was the first to pick it up, but the “Wedding of the Century” popped up like this and was on Weibo’s hot search list, attracting countless people to watch!
Looking around, many people inside and outside the circle have expressed their opinions and evaluations.
"Wow! I envy Yang Ying so much! Her husband loves her so much! They are truly a couple of gods and gods."
"Look, I said some time ago that Yang Ying is the most beautiful female star in the domestic entertainment industry. She deserves such a 'wedding of the century'!"
"My dear, does a wedding need to be pre-heated? Isn't it a bit too commercial to also seek media, accept endorsements, and attract investment?"
"The wedding of the century? Haha, I even laughed at it."
"I wish the leader and the baby a happy wedding, eternal happiness, grow old together, and never be separated..."
After finishing the full bowl of porridge, Chen Fei walked to the sink with the empty bowl and couldn't help but mutter: "As expected of the leader, the wedding can be linked to business? What an eye-opener!"
…
At the same time, the Film Bureau.
Tong Gang sat on the office chair and looked at Jiang Zhihao opposite, with a rather indifferent expression on his face, and his mood did not fluctuate at all.
On the contrary, Jiang Zhiruo, who was sitting opposite, kept talking nonchalantly, and his words were quite aggrieved, as if he had been bullied.
"Are you done?"
Tong Gang suddenly spoke, interrupting his words.
Jiang Zhihao quickly made a more aggrieved expression: "Tong Bureau, you must help me!"
"How do you want me to help you?" Tong Gang raised his head, looked straight at him, and asked: "Did "Operation Mekong" steal the box office? Or did it swindle the box office? Or did it make any illegal operations?
If you can tell me why, I can definitely arrange for someone to remove the movie. Even if it means banning, fines, or penalties, it won't be a problem.
But now they just don’t want their movies to appear in your Anle theaters, and they don’t cause large-scale market fluctuations. How can I take care of this? "
The corners of Jiang Zhi's mouth twitched. These words were so similar to what La Sheikang said before!
"But... if his movie is not released in our theaters, we will suffer a huge loss. There are so many people out there waiting to support their families. We cannot let them go hungry!"
Tong Gang felt very disdainful. If he had known this, why did he do it in the first place?
"I'm sorry, I can't control this. I don't want the "products" made by Feiyue Film and Television to be sold on the "shelves" of your Anle Cinemas, so it's impossible to intervene forcefully, right? That would break the rules."
"But over there at Pan-Asia Cinemas..."
"The same truth." Tong Gang interrupted directly: "I don't want your "goods" to be placed on other people's "shelves". You have to negotiate. We have no right to control this."
"..."
After waiting for half an hour, seeing that Tong Gang was no longer paying attention to him, Jiang Zhiru had no choice but to get up and leave.
Outside the door, the assistant and the driver came over to greet him and looked at him with concern.
"Director Jiang?"
"Hey, let's go to the airport. Let's go back to Xiangjiang first and then think of something else."
At this time, the sky and the earth are really ineffective.
One wrong step, one wrong step after another, and now there is no turning back.
Jiang Zhiru no longer knows how to face the shareholders of the company, because he is entirely to blame for reaching this point!
At this time, in front of the floor-to-ceiling window of the office, Tong Gang was silently watching Jiang Zhiro's car drive out of the gate.
Things like affection and preferential treatment have limits and cannot be used at any time.
For the first time, the General Administration only chose to issue warnings and fines, hoping that Anle Pictures could make a comeback.
But in the end, Jiang Zhihao still pushed the box office of "Monster Hunt" to 1.7 billion, which obviously did not take the warning above into consideration.
"If that's the case, then you can figure it out yourself this time, Anle Pictures? Oh, no matter in terms of influence or size, how can you compare it with Feiyue Pictures?
In the future... supporting mainland companies is the right way. As for Xiangjiang, haha, it depends on whether it can be as smart as the Emperor. "

Sunday, October 4th.
When he got up early in the morning, Chen Fei sorted out the corrected script, put it into his briefcase, and prepared to go to the company to meet Han Sanping.
The third master is very impatient. He calls him every three days to ask how the script is going, whether he needs help, and whether he needs assistance in the creation. This makes him extremely annoyed!
After thinking about it for a few minutes last night, he decided to just send the script out and let Han Sanping figure it out on her own.
If he doesn't get a script, I'm afraid the frequency of phone calls will change from once every three days to once a day!
"Phone bombing, this is pure phone bombing, this is a crime!"
In the car, Chen Fei complained about Han Sanping without mercy.
At this time, with the arrival of a new day, the atmosphere in the entertainment industry is becoming more and more lively.
"Operation Mekong, an action and crime-themed film directed and starred by Chen Fei, recorded a new box office of 293 million yesterday, and the current total box office has reached 1.258 billion! It is very close to the 2 billion box office!"
"This morning, the giant mythological film "The Legend of Wukong" of the same name, produced by Xinli Pictures, bringing together many film and television actors from both sides of the Taiwan Strait and three places, and adapted from the top IP novel of the same name, was officially announced to be shot.
At the film launch conference, Peng Yuyan, Ni Na, Yu Wengle and other creative members were all present. Director Chen Kaige even made a surprise appearance on the set and personally taught several actors acting skills..."
"There are less than 4 days left before Huang Xiaoming and Yang Ying's 'Wedding of the Century'. According to the wedding organizers, at the proposal scene, the man will give the woman a 6-carat luxury wedding ring!"
"Breaking News: The guest list of Huang Xiaoming and Yang Ying's 'Wedding of the Century' has been exposed for the first time, bringing together stars from the film and television circles from cross-strait, three places and Southeast Asian countries, covering the music, sports, folk arts, media, and journalism circles..."
Huayi, in Wang Zhongjun’s office.
While browsing the news on the Internet, Wang Zhonglei, who was originally sitting on the sofa, couldn't help but stand up and stared at the screen of his mobile phone.
"If "Lao Pao Er" can have the strong box office appeal of "Operation Mekong", the company's market value will return to 95 billion just around the corner!"
Wang Zhongjun, who was sitting in the office chair, glanced at him and said without hesitation: "Whimsical!"
"What about "I'm Not Pan Jinlian" and "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons"? With these two movies, they should be comparable, right?"
Wang Zhonglei said unconvinced, secretly complaining that his own brother had given others prestige and destroyed his own ambition.
"With the addition of "Journey to the West: Conquering Demons", it might be almost the same."
Wang Zhongjun did not discuss this topic in depth, but mentioned another thing: "What does the board of directors say? When will the 1.05 billion funds be available? Feng Xiaogang has already begun to press."
"Hurry up, hurry up, this is not a small amount of money after all, and approval will take time."
Wang Zhongjun nodded slightly: "We must deal with this matter as soon as possible, strive to make a profit, and announce it to the public as soon as the transaction process is completed. This will be helpful to increase the stock price."
"good."
Wang Zhonglei responded and added: "I have also discussed with Yang Ying, Bai Baihe, Li Chen, and Huo Siyan. As soon as their personal companies are established, we will start the acquisition process."
"Yang Ying can wait until the wedding is over before launching the acquisition plan. The wedding between her and Xiao Ming is not simple. After this time, the two will be officially tied together. This will greatly increase the acquisition price. We You can also earn more.”
"Well, okay, I'll keep an eye on what's going on over there."
…
At this time, Feiyue Film and Television is here.
Seeing Han Sanping coming alone, Chen Fei couldn't help but be curious: "Hey? Director Han, why are you here alone today? Where is your follower?"
"Are you talking about a beautiful girl?" Han Sanping shook her head helplessly: "Don't worry about her. I finally arranged for her to follow Ning Hao to the crew of "Ghost Blowing the Lamp" to learn something, but she is fine. She fishes in three days and fishes in two days. Posting on the internet, I’m so babbling that I don’t know what I’m doing.”
"Oh, that's it." Chen Fei suddenly thought of what Han Jianu had said to him before: "She seemed to have said before that she wanted to create a script by herself?"
"Huh? Just her?" Han Sanping curled her lips, full of disdain: "If she can create high-quality scripts, my last name will be hers!"
"???"
Chen Fei vaguely felt that something was not right, but before he could react, Han Sanping's hand had already been stretched out in front of him.
"Didn't you say you would give me the script today? Where is it?"
"Hey, don't worry, can I still break my promise to you?"
Shaking his head helplessly, Chen Fei opened the briefcase on the table and took out the script of "The Founding of an Army".
Han Sanping reached out to take it at lightning speed, then returned to the sofa and started reading it with interest.
Chen Fei did not interrupt his thoughts, but took out another script from the safe nearby and began to revise, delete, and make corrections...
Half an hour later, Han Sanping finished reading the script with satisfaction.
"Yes, you wrote this story very well. I think you have a smart mind and can definitely write a suitable gift film script."
Chen Fei boasted without raising his head: "Main theme movie scripts are my strong point."
Han Sanping ignored his words, but was very interested in the script in his hand: "What are you reading? A newly written script?"
"Yeah." Chen Fei still didn't look up, and replied casually: "It's still a main theme script, adapted from the "Yemen evacuation" incident in March this year."
Han Sanping asked: "Is it the same nature as "Operation Mekong"? "
Chen Fei thought about it and replied: "Almost, but the script is not yet complete. I will show it to you after it is finalized."
"Okay, then you go ahead. I'll take this script to the General Administration and let Director Tong take a look."
"Okay, then I won't send it off. Be careful on the road."
"Yeah."
After leaving the door, Han Sanping left Feiyue Film and went straight to the Film Bureau.
He was quite satisfied with the script of "The Founding of an Army". Next, he needed to let Tong Gang take a look. As long as the latter nodded, the project would be settled, and the "debt" he owed before could be repaid.
