Chapter 904: La La Land Is Finished! Thank You Uncle Wang! Go Beat up The Great Wall?

The story of "囧 in Hong Kong" is actually not complicated, because it is very similar to the story framework of "囧 in Thailand", and can even be said to be of the same origin.

But what Chen Fei and Ning Hao couldn't "accept" was that it was actually written by Wang Baoqiang!

After spending a whole hour reading the script, the two looked at each other and could see "shock" in each other's eyes!

Ning Hao leaned back and lay on the back of the chair, muttering to himself: "I didn't expect this! This kid actually has such an ability, hiding it so secretly!"

Chen Fei tapped his fingers on the table unconsciously, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and showed a smile.

"This is called genius! A person who has never taken an acting class can actually perform the two roles of 'Mr. Shu' and 'Feng Yuxiu' and switch to 'Tang Ren' by relying solely on his own imagination. This shows that his potential is not small!”

Ning Hao nodded in agreement and brought the topic back to the script: "What do you think?"

Chen Fei replied: "The story is very well written, but the framework and details are rough. If you polish it carefully, there will definitely be great potential!"

"Then let's help him?"

"Okay, let's take this script as the beginning of our plan."

"Haha, okay, then I will contact him tomorrow and help him lay out the framework of the script together, and then we will start preparations."

"Well, I will say hello to the company, and someone will come to fully cooperate with your work."

Both of them have very straightforward personalities, and in a few words, they have already made plans.

After a night, a lot of new entertainment news appeared on the Internet.

"The romantic comedy movie "Passing Through Your World", co-produced by Enlight Media, Orange Image and other companies, starring Deng Chao, Bai Baihe, Yang Yang, Yue Yunpeng, Liu Yan and others, was announced yesterday evening. The press conference will be It was held in Chongqing this morning.

It is reported that the film has been confirmed and will be scheduled to be released on September 29, participating in the box office competition during the National Day period. "

"Huace Pictures has announced that the romance and fantasy film "A Smile Is Allure" starring Yang Ying and Jing Boran will be released on August 12 this year."

"Bona Pictures and Universal Pictures announced that the Hong Kong-Mainland co-production film "Dangerous City" starring Liu Qingyun, Gu Tianle, Peng Yuyan, and Wu Jing, Yuan Quan, Jiang Shuying and others will also be confirmed. The film will be released on August 12 this year.”

On the way to the studio, Chen Fei looked at the film's scheduled announcement on Weibo, and couldn't help but feel his disgust for this old boy Dong even deepened.

The Mainland film market is on the verge of competing with Hollywood, but Bona Pictures doesn't know what it thinks. It just likes to flatter the Hong Kong film industry.

Whenever he collaborates with Hong Kong, Bona always likes to use Hong Kong artists as the protagonists, and then recruit a few mainland artists to play supporting roles.

Wu Jing was also very unlucky. He owed so many favors and had to repay them when people came to his door.

So in the end, it once again turned into the scene of mainland actors carrying sedan chairs for Hong Kong actors 10 years ago.

"If you continue to commit suicide like this, you will end up sooner or later. Why go public? What a bullshit market!"

Chen Fei couldn't help but complained loudly. He rolled his eyes and a lot of bad ideas came out.

Fatty Yu has been very close to Ali recently, and the two families don't know what they are plotting to do. Anyway, they are definitely not doing good things.

It seems good to put a little more pressure on them.

…

The time came to 9 o'clock sharp, and the filming of the last scene of "La La Land" started here.

At the same time, Ning Hao was also on the phone with Wang Baoqiang.

"Director Ning? Are you saying that my script will work? Director Chen is willing to invest in me? Let me be my own director and make movies?"

Listening to Wang Baoqiang's excited voice on the other end of the phone, Ning Hao laughed: "Yes, Director Chen said that he is very optimistic about your story.

But, your script is too rough and needs to be revised, especially the story structure, which must be rebuilt..."

Wang Baoqiang listened excitedly at first, but as he went on he became more and more confused.

"Director Ning, what you're talking about is too profound. I don't understand it! How about I go find a screenwriting teacher to learn from it first? Continue to write better scripts?"

"What kind of screenwriting teacher are you looking for? I'm here. I'll help you when the time comes. Now you listen to me carefully and study slowly!"

"Hey! Okay! You speak and I listen..."

Wang Baoqiang was in a panic and quickly turned on the recording function of his mobile phone, preparing to study it carefully after Ning Hao finished speaking.

This kind of opportunity to listen to a lecture is so rare. A word someone said may be worth more than a month of hard study!

…

At 10 o'clock in the morning, in the mountain city of Chongqing, the final press conference for the movie "Passing Through Your World" was held.

When being interviewed by reporters, Wang Changtian boasted without any blush, saying that he would kill everyone during the National Day period and trample under his feet the "Fantasy City" released at the same time.

No matter whether it can be realized or not, it will be beneficial to everyone to blow it out first and then talk about it.

Although Liu Yan is not the heroine of this movie, and can only be regarded as the third female lead at best, she is standing very far forward in the crowd at this time.

And many reporters will specifically target her during interviews.

However, when those reporters asked questions, they would more or less bring the topic to "Wolf Warrior 2", which made her inexplicably nervous.

This kind of behavior is taboo on the current movie crew to talk about another movie. After all, her status is far from reaching the point where she can "act recklessly" on the crew.

She had no choice but to take the initiative and said: ""Wolf Warrior 2" will be launched in June, and a press conference will be held then. If you have any questions, you can go there and ask them. Today's press conference will mainly focus on It will also revolve around "Passing Through Your World", so I ask for your understanding..."

Wang Changtian watched silently and nodded without any trace.

High emotional intelligence, good looks, good personality... If you can find a suitable backer, you will definitely be able to continue smoothly in the entertainment industry.

"Wolf Warrior 2" is a good opportunity. If the box office can exceed 1 billion, Liu Yan's popularity will definitely increase.

By then, she will no longer be a little host who can be bullied by anyone.

Wang Changtian was thinking when suddenly, his secretary came over and whispered in his ear: "Director Wang, Chen Hong came to the crew and said he wanted to meet you."

"Who? Chen Hong?"

"Yes." The secretary responded: "Brother Chen Kai's wife, Chen Hong."

"Did she come by herself?" Wang Changtian turned around and lowered his voice.

"There is also a young man who looks a bit like Director Chen Kaige. If my guess is correct, he should be the young master of Director Chen Kaige's family."

The two of them talked, avoided the eyes of the media, and soon came to the backstage of the crew.

When he saw Chen Hong and Chen Feiyu, Wang Changtian started to think in confusion.

If he remembered correctly, Guang Guang and Brother Chen Kai didn't seem to have much cooperation in recent years. Now it seems a bit weird that these two are here uninvited.

"Director Wang, excuse me."

"If Mr. Chen is there, don't bother me. You are welcome..."

"Feiyu, why are you standing there stunned? Call someone, this is the chairman of Guangguang."

"Hello, Uncle Wang."

After greeting each other, Wang Changtian blinked in confusion and waited quietly for Chen Hong to speak.

"We flew here specially from the Tangcheng Film and Television Base." Chen Hong first expressed his sincerity, and then continued: "The main reason I came here today was to ask for a favor from Director Wang. In fact, it was Brother Kai who should have come in person. Yes, but there is really no way to get away from "The Legend of the Demon Cat", so I have to make this trip."

"A favor?"

These four words were like a bolt of lightning, instantly alerting Wang Changtian.

The name "The Wandering Earth" instantly came to his mind. After all, too many people had contacted him before.

Moreover, he is also aware that Chen Kaige and his wife want to promote their youngest son to become an actor.

Thinking of this, Wang Changtian's eyes swept over Chen Feiyu without leaving a trace, he shook his head slightly and refused: "If Producer Chen also has ideas about "The Wandering Earth", you can contact Director Chen, I can't help here. Why are you so busy? Ray only has investment rights and does not have the qualifications to control.”

Chen Hong was slightly startled when he heard this, and suddenly realized that Wang Changtian was thinking wrongly.

She chuckled and explained: "Director Wang, you misunderstood, I did not come here for "The Wandering Earth". That kind of project is not something Feiyu can afford."

Several characters in "The Wandering Earth" are now clear, and among them "Liu Qi" and "Han Duoduo" are undoubtedly the targets of many young actors.

But everyone knows that it is absolutely impossible for such an important role to be revealed, and it will inevitably be digested internally. Chen Hong did want to go to Chen Fei to win this role before. After all, if Chen Feiyu can be selected, it can be said to be the "peak of his debut."

But when she thought about it again, she felt that she was just being crazy.

How could Feiyue Film and Television agree to let Chen Feiyu play such an important role?

So, after careful selection, she set her sights on the light side.

At this time, after listening to Chen Hong's words, Wang Changtian felt a sense of curiosity in his heart: "It's not "The Wandering Earth"? What is it?"

Chen Hong did not answer immediately, but took out a document from his bag and handed it to Wang Changtian.

It was a copy of Guangguang's project plan for the second half of the year, and one of the youth films was listed!

She said with a smile: "As we all know, Guang Guang's youth films are famous for their high box office and high traffic in the industry, and the favor I want to ask for is that I hope Guang Guang can give Fei Yu a bright spot in this youth film. Eye performance.”

Wang Changtian took the document and browsed it carefully.

""Secret Fruit"? A sequel to "The Left Ear"?"

He secretly thought to himself that this youth film is indeed a good opportunity. It can not only train new talents, but also ensure box office and traffic. It is very suitable for new actors to make their debut.

Under the influence of the huge flow of youth films, even a relatively unknown newcomer can take advantage of the opportunity to become famous, let alone the son of Brother Chen Kai...

After thinking for a moment, Wang Changtian raised his head, looked at Chen Hong and said, "Producer Chen came at the right time. The starring cast of this movie has not been confirmed yet."

Chen Hong breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this: "Director Wang, to tell you the truth, Fei Yu has already developed good acting skills under the guidance of Brother Kai. He is definitely a newcomer with potential. I believe he can definitely make a big splash in this movie." Brilliant.”

Wang Changtian turned his head and looked at Chen Feiyu carefully, then reached out and patted him on the shoulder, praising: "You are so impressive and majestic, you are obviously born to be an actor."

"Uncle Wang, thank you." Chen Feiyu smiled modestly.

"Since Producer Chen has already come to your door, I definitely have to give you this face. Let's just make a decision. I will arrange for someone to contact you after the project preparations begin."

"Okay, thank you, Director Wang. I will tell Brother Kai when I get back. We, as a couple, will never forget this favor."

"Haha, I wish Feiyu a successful debut in advance and all the best."

"Thank you, Uncle Wang!"

…

In the evening, Hengdian, inside the studio where the crew of "La La Land" is located.

The actor Chen Fei and the actress Liu Yifei walked hand in hand on the set. Then they both turned around at the same time and smiled at the camera.

This romantic scene seemed as beautiful as a fairy tale, which made many people in the crew feel relaxed and happy watching it.

Ning Hao, who was the temporary cameraman, raised his loudspeaker and shouted loudly: "Click! OK, passed, this scene is great!"

It's like a real couple making a love song and dance movie, it's so smooth, and most of the time it's one shot.

Chen Fei returned to the monitor, carefully checked the playback, and then took the loudspeaker from Ning Hao: "I announce that the filming of "La La Land" has officially ended! Everyone has worked hard!"

For a moment, everyone on the set breathed a sigh of relief unconsciously.

The filming lasted for two full months, and it was very painful and tiring for everyone in the later stages.

Because the film involves too many outdoor scenes, as well as a large number of singing and dancing scenes, the shooting becomes more difficult in the later stages, and even the shooting cost is much higher.

After taking off his makeup, Chen Fei immediately announced the arrangements for the subsequent finals banquet.

"Tonight, I'll excuse you all. Let's have a seafood dinner at the hotel first. There will be a formal closing banquet waiting for you when we return to the capital."

Zhu Yawen coaxed: "Everyone is free to eat tonight. Don't save money for Director Chen. After digesting it tomorrow, you can kill him again when you return to the capital, haha."

Everyone cheered, and for a while, the atmosphere on the set became more and more lively.

After a night, May has come to the last day.

In the morning, there was another heated discussion in the film and television circles, just because another new movie by Chen Fei was announced to be finalized.

"Exclusively produced by Feiyue Film and Television, Chen Fei serves as the male lead, director, and screenwriter, Liu Yifei serves as the female lead and producer, and Feng Yuanzheng, Zhu Yawen, Zhou Xun, Zhao Liying, Shu Chang, Jing Tian and others participated in the performance of the song and dance theme The movie "La La Land" was officially announced to be finalized yesterday evening, and the follow-up finalization press conference will be held simultaneously with the "Chasing the Dragon" celebration banquet in the capital..."

"It is reported that "La La Land" will participate in the film festival selection, but it is not yet known which film festival it will participate in."

"I wish Director Chen another successful bid for the prize!"

On the plane returning to the capital, Chen Fei received a call from Ren Zhonglun.

"Hey? You really save trouble! You actually put the closing banquet and the celebration banquet on the same day? In this circle, you are the only one who can do such a thing."

"Haha, this saves Mr. Ren from having to make two trips, right?"

"That's true, otherwise I would have to fly to the capital twice."

After chatting for a while, Ren Zhonglun finally got to the point of the call: "By the way, I read on the Internet that your newly completed movie is going to compete for awards? How about..."

Before he could finish speaking, Chen Fei interrupted directly: "Director Ren, I know what you mean. You are doing it for the Magic City International Film Festival, right?"

You know, Shanghai Film Festival has always been the exclusive home of Shanghai Film Festival, and the Shanghai Film Festival is naturally inclined to Shanghai Film Festival. It can even be said to be a "family".

Therefore, in order to make next year's Magic City International Film Festival lively, Ren Zhonglun will naturally spare no effort.

However, he will definitely be disappointed this time.

"Director Ren, to tell you the truth, I am planning to win three European gold medals with this movie."

Upon hearing this, Ren Zhonglun immediately gave up his inner thoughts.

Compared with the three gold medals in Europe, the Magic City International Film Festival is simply as different as heaven and earth. It can be said to be a sure loser.

"Oh." He sighed helplessly, and tried to argue from another angle: "You should have nothing to do in June, right? You can come to the film festival for two days, right?"

"Ahem." Chen Fei touched his nose: "I'm going to Hollywood in June, and the air tickets have been booked in advance."

"Going to Hollywood?" Ren Zhonglun was a little curious: "Why go to Hollywood? Do you have any new plans?"

"It's mainly for the post-production of "La La Land" and "Ready Player One". It's cleaner there and the equipment is more professional."

As long as you stay in the mainland, you will inevitably have to attend various large and small banquets, and most of them are unavoidable.

Chen Fei was really annoyed by these things, so he might as well hide in Hollywood for a month and then come back after the summer vacation started.

Anyway, June is also an unpopular period for mainland movies, and since he didn’t have any new work lined up, he could just skip away.

On the other end of the phone, Ren Zhonglun was speechless for a moment, and finally he could only sigh helplessly: "Okay, forget it, wait until there is a chance again in the future."

"good."

Chen Fei responded casually and then hung up the phone.

At this time, Ning Hao, who was sitting next door, suddenly looked over and said: "By the way, has the company confirmed whether "Kunlun Temple" will be released for National Day or New Year?"

"Let's release Kunlun Temple during the National Day holiday." Chen Fei straightened his back slightly, his eyes were sharp: "It will take more than a month for me to finish the post-production of Operation Red Sea. If I release it during the National Day holiday, it would be a bit too rushed.

So, I plan to release it during the Lunar New Year holiday and have some fun with those movies that claim to be 'blockbusters'!"

Ning Hao was stunned, and subconsciously asked: "To beat up The Great Wall?"

"Look at the word you used." Chen Fei couldn't help but roll his eyes at him, and deliberately corrected him: "We are going to communicate with each other, how can we use 'beat up' to describe it?"

"Hey, you are so noble, right?" Ning Hao lay back in his seat, muttering: "You go to the Lunar New Year holiday to beat up The Great Wall, then I will go to the National Day holiday to beat up Jue Ji!"

His vicious expression, coupled with the big gold chain around his neck, is just like a gangster, and the flight attendant was so scared that she didn't dare to come over to ask for an autograph!
