Chapter 941 The Conflict Between the Two Ices Re-Emerges! Anle Is About to Make a Comeback!

"Reprinted from the official website of the Berlin International Film Festival: Starting from July 20, the 67th Berlin International Film Festival will officially begin to accept entries from all over the world."

"This morning, the Berlin International Film Festival Organizing Committee officially announced the list of juries for the main competition unit of the 67th Berlin International Film Festival;

It is reported that the chairman of the jury for this year's main competition unit will be the Dutch director Paul Verhoeven, and the list of jury members will include the Chinese director, screenwriter, and producer Ning Hao!"

"Yesterday evening, the large-scale costume, palace, and political drama "The Princess Weiyoung" produced by Huace Films and starring Zhong Hanliang, Yang Ying, Yu Bo, Sun Yizhou and others was officially shut down in Hengdian, and the wrap-up press conference will be held this morning."

"The fourth online voting activity for the four young actresses in the mainland is in progress. The current hot young actress Zheng Shuang is still the first in the vote list, followed by Zhou Dongyu, Yang Zi, Guan Xiaotong..."

"Gravity Film Investment Co., Ltd. and Hollywood Warner Bros. Pictures released a new group news, saying that they will cooperate to shoot the science fiction and thriller film "The Meg" adapted from the science fiction novel "The Meg".

The film's director Joe Detduba said in an interview with the media that Hollywood films need Chinese audiences, so we will create more Chinese characters in this film.

We will adopt topics that Chinese audiences may be interested in, and we also welcome investment from China, and those Chinese investors also hope to see the addition of Chinese characters. In the future, we hope to cooperate with more Chinese actors..."

"It is reported that the role setting of the heroine "Zhang Suyin" in "The Meg" is a brave, determined and responsible Chinese marine biologist. The role will be selected from Chinese actresses. "

...

On the morning of the 20th, Chen Fei woke up and suddenly found that the entire film and television industry had fallen into an extreme madness!

Especially those big flower girls, first-line actresses and their fans, they almost turned the entire Weibo over!

Gravity Pictures and Warner Bros. will shoot the top-level Hollywood sci-fi movie "The Meg", and the heroine will be selected from Chinese actresses...

These two conditions alone are enough to make those actresses go crazy and fight for it!

It is no exaggeration to say that this is an opportunity that all actresses dream of.

Once you can join it and become the leading actress, whether it is the status, position, value, or endorsement fee, it will usher in a wave of surges, and the benefits are simply too many!

Looking around, the fans of Li Bingbing and Fan Bingbing are the most noisy on Weibo at this time, and the fans of both sides are already "starting a group" crazy against each other.

And the fans of actresses such as Zhang Ziyi, Zhou Xun, Shu Qi, Jing Tian, ​​and Yang Mi, Yang Ying, Ni Ni, Liu Shishi, Zhao Liying, who are a little lower in status, are not particularly active.

After all, when it comes to the most popular big actresses at the moment, you still have to look at Li Bingbing and Fan Bingbing, and the others are undoubtedly slightly inferior.

As for Liu Yifei, she is so Buddhist that her fans are not particularly active.

Of course, this does not mean that other actresses can look down on her.

It is no exaggeration to say that if Liu Yifei jumps out and says she wants to compete for the leading role of "The Meg", even Li Bingbing and Fan Bingbing will have to stand aside.

This is the value of the No. 1 Cannes Film Queen + Chinese actress personal box office performance list!

As for the fighting power of fans, Liu Yifei's fans are not necessarily weaker than those of the two Bingbings.

After watching the heated discussions on the Internet for a while, Chen Fei retracted his gaze, tucked in the corners of the quilt for Miss Liu who was sleeping soundly, and tiptoed out of the bedroom.

As soon as he closed the door, he called Ning Hao.

After just a few seconds, the call was connected.

"Hey, good morning! Ning·Judge of the Main Competition Unit of the Berlin International Film Festival·Hao·Great Director!"

"Haha, low-key, low-key, you know I'm not the kind of person who likes to be high-profile, hahahahaha..."

"Do you want to laugh more?" Chen Fei complained speechlessly.

"Hehe, I'm just happy."

"What's the situation? Why didn't I hear you say that you would sign up to be a judge at the next Berlin International Film Festival before? Why did you suddenly announce it today?"

Ning Hao had already answered this confusion for many friends early in the morning. When he heard Chen Fei asking the question, he simply said it again:

"The organizing committee actually considered inviting two people at the time, namely me and Wang Quanan, mainly because we both won the Golden Bear Award at the Berlin International Film Festival.

I didn't know who would be selected between me and Wang Quanan, so I didn't tell anyone about it. I didn't expect that the organizing committee of the film festival would choose me in the end!"

"Oh! So that's it." Chen Fei suddenly understood.

Ning Hao was still analyzing non-stop: "I suspect the reason why the film festival organizing committee didn't choose Wang Quanan was mainly because of his previous prostitution incident, which was really damaging to his image."

"It is indeed possible. After all, the overall style of the Berlin International Film Festival is still quite serious..."

After chatting for a few minutes, the two ended the call.

Ning Hao was still very busy, because the casting of "Lost in Hong Kong" had officially started yesterday, and he had to go to the audition site to take charge.

Chen Fei was not in a hurry to go there. He planned to wash up first, have breakfast by the way, and then go shopping around the company.

However, before he could put his cell phone in his pocket, the ringtone of an incoming call suddenly rang.

After taking a look at the name on the caller ID, he raised his eyebrows, pressed the connect button, and took the initiative to say hello: "Aunt Liu..."

Liu Xiaoli's voice came from the other end of the phone: "Chen Fei, are you at home right now? Hongxingwu received a script for that girl Qianqian. I arranged for an assistant to send it to you. Please help. Take a look."

"Huh? It can't be "The Meg", right?"

At this moment, Chen Fei suddenly thought of the overwhelming film press releases he had just seen online.

"Yes, it's "The Meg". It was sent over by Gravity Films. They want to ask Sissi to play the female lead, and they said we can raise the remuneration as long as we want."

"Let me take a look at the script when it is sent over. Don't rush to agree. After all, commercial science fiction movies like this don't have much blessing for her anymore. If the quality of the script is not particularly high, it would be better not to accept it... "

Chen Fei patiently explained the reason to Liu Xiaoli.

In recent years, he has been working hard to push Liu Yifei in the direction of "acting school", just to let her realize her self-worth and open up a development path that is different from ordinary actresses.

Because the appearance will eventually get old one day, but the acting skills will not fade over time, but will become better and better like fine wine!

As for remuneration... Liu Yifei already has enough of it. Just the high-end luxury brands she endorses every year are enough for her to live a very wealthy life.

What's more, she also has a boyfriend who has a lot of money and can't spend it all!

"Okay, you two can discuss it. If you don't answer, ask Sissi to call me back and I'll talk to them."

"Okay auntie."

After responding, Chen Fei hung up the phone and went straight to the bathroom.

Half an hour passed by in a flash, and when he walked out of the bathroom, people from Red Star Wood also brought over the script for "The Meg".

"Director Chen, this is what Manager Liu asked me to give you."

"Well, okay, thank you for your hard work."

After taking the script and returning to the living room, Chen Fei read it with interest.

As a commercial film script produced by Hollywood, the script of "The Meg" is not too simple!

It is a story about a prehistoric monster, the Megalodon, accidentally escaping from the deep sea, reappearing on earth, killing people, and then the male and female protagonists engage in a desperate fight with it.

And the most important thing is that the heroine is a pure vase type character. Her appearance is to set off the male protagonist.

After only watching 1/3, Chen Fei lost interest.

This kind of story is too monotonous and simple, and it is no longer worthy of the current Liu Yifei.

Of course, even though he doesn't like the script, he certainly won't make the decision for Liu Yifei. Whether or not to act in the movie still depends on her opinion.

After casually placing the script in a conspicuous place in the living room and leaving a note, Chen Fei left the villa and went straight to the company.

When Liu Yifei wakes up, she will naturally read the script, and the decision will be left to her.

…

At this time, in Li Bingbing's studio, Li Hu, the agent, was in charge of connecting with the public relations team.

"No matter what, we must not lose to Fan Bingbing in terms of public opinion... I know she is very popular recently, but so what? Just fuck her hard and it will be over..."

At the same time, Li Bingbing is also using his personal connections and relationships.

Compared with Fan Bingbing, her qualifications in Hollywood are much stronger than the former. Deng Wendi alone is enough to make her invincible!

However, the news she received at this time was not so friendly.

On the other end of the phone, Deng Wendi said bluntly: "I asked you about it, and Warner revealed that the best candidate for the heroine is Liu Yifei."

"What?" Li Bingbing suddenly felt bad: "Liu Yifei? Is she also competing for this role?"

"It's not clear yet. I only know that Warner is in contact with her, but what is certain is that if she nods in agreement, neither you nor Fan Bingbing will have any hope. You should know the specific reasons better than me."

Li Bingbing immediately fell silent.

Whether it is box office appeal or popularity overseas and in the mainland, if we really want to judge, Liu Yifei is definitely the one with the most faults.

As Deng Wendi said, if she fights, other female stars in domestic entertainment can rest.

She could compete fiercely with Fan Bingbing online, but facing Liu Yifei, she would never dare to do so.

Once Chen Fei is made angry, she will definitely be in bad luck!

"Don't be discouraged. I will keep in close contact with Warner. Once I receive the news, I will notify you as soon as possible."

"Okay, thank you Sister Wendi."

She just hung up the phone, and at the same time, Li He also hung up.

"Bing Bing, don't let your guard down just yet. If you need to use your connections, use your connections. I feel like Liu Yifei won't accept it. "The Meg" will start filming in the middle of next month, and she has to attend the Venice International Film Festival. Film festivals have big problems with their schedules.

What's more, this kind of commercial film doesn't bring much benefit to her, so maybe others won't like it. "

"I hope so."

Li Bingbing murmured. She could only hope that Deng Wendi would help her.

…

At the same time, in the crew of "Win the World".

Fan Bingbing was putting on makeup while reminding her agent of the precautions:

"Remember, no matter what the final result is, we must not lose to anyone in public opinion. This is one of the key points.

I will contact my network in Hollywood later and try to get CAA to help. Even if the salary is lower, we must strive to get this role."

While speaking, she was still praying in her heart: "That person must not come to interfere! If she gets involved, I'm afraid no one can compete with her!"

When it comes to public opinion propaganda, looking at the domestic entertainment, Fan Bingbing is really not afraid.

But when it comes to overseas resources, she dare not make a bold statement that she is the first in the domestic entertainment.

Because there are many people who are more powerful than her, and even if she really wants to compete, her chances of winning are actually not great.

…

When he first arrived at the company, Chen Fei did not rush to the audition site of "Lost in Hong Kong", but came to the animation department.

One hundred million yuan had been transferred to the animation department account, and he was quite curious about the progress here.

"Director Chen, you are here."

"Director Chen, good morning!"

As soon as Chen Fei walked in from the door, he attracted a lot of attention and care, followed by a series of greetings.

"Well, good morning, I ordered coffee, someone will bring it to you later, remember to take it."

While speaking, Chen Fei went straight to the production area of ​​"Nezha: The Devil Child Comes to the World".

Yang Yu was in charge of this animated film, so when Chen Fei came in, he saw him lying in front of the computer to work on the modeling details.

Perhaps because he was too focused, he didn't even notice someone approaching behind him.

Chen Fei did not disturb him, but came to another computer next to him and watched a part of the content that had been completed.

Looking around, whether it was the picture, special effects, lens, scene, or modeling, there was almost no flaw to be found.

Especially the image of "Nezha", with "dark circles" on his eyes, he even has a bit of "rock" characteristics, which looks ugly and cute, very interesting.

There was not much time in the morning, but Chen Fei stayed in the animation department for nearly two hours.

After watching the shots of "Nezha: The Devil Child Comes to the World", he went to "Green Snake" and watched many shots they made with Li Yang, and put forward many constructive suggestions.

He stayed until 11 o'clock, until Liu Yifei called, and then he left the animation department.

"I don't want to take the role of "The Meg", it's boring and monotonous, the heroine is like a vase, and I promised Han Jianu to help her play a cameo role..."

"Okay, since you don't want to take it, then tell your mother and let her turn down the script."

"Okay, I'll call her now."

"You and Han Jianu..."

Before Chen Fei finished speaking, Liu Yifei hurriedly switched the call.

"Hey? This girl? Why are you so impatient? You promised Han Jianuo to play a cameo role? Hey, you just finished "La La Land" and you're going to do pole dancing?"

...

Time quickly came to the afternoon.

Just as Chen Fei and Ning Hao were personally auditioning Wang Baoqiang for "Lost in Hong Kong", Jiang Zhiqiang, who was at Enlightenment Pictures, looked at the revenue data of the company's 29 theaters and felt terrible.

After losing the live sign of "Detective Chinatown 2", the theaters under Enlightenment Pictures had a miserable summer vacation!

They originally wanted to pin their hopes on "Legend of the Gods", but they didn't expect Bona to pull a big one.

If it weren't for "Grave Robbers' Chronicles" and "Line Walker", they would probably suffer losses this month!

On the 19th, many films were launched, such as "New Big Head Son and Little Head Dad", "He is a Dragon", "The Sea of ​​Fire", etc.

But after seeing the first-day box office of these movies, Jiang Zhiqiang sentenced them all to death.

"Alas! Hold on a little longer. When "Ice Age 5" and "Jason Bourne" are released on the 23rd, we should be able to attract another group of moviegoers to the theater."

"That's the only way..." The theater manager shook his head, and walked out of the office with helplessness and sadness.

However, at this moment, the production manager pushed open the door and walked in.

"Mr. Jiang! I have good news for you! All the main creators of "Monster Hunt 2" have signed the contract, and all the preparations of the crew are ready..."

It was rare to receive good news, and Jiang Zhiqiang's face suddenly broke into a smile.

He couldn't wait to ask: "What did the disciple of the White Dragon King say? Has the auspicious date for the project launch conference been determined? When will the filming start?"

"It has been determined. The project launch conference can be held on the 30th of this month, and then the filming will start on October 1st. The luck will be the best at that time." The production manager responded softly.

"Haha, good! That's great!"

At this moment, Jiang Zhiqi swept away the previous haze and immediately ordered: "Then get ready. The project launch conference will be held on the 30th to announce the relevant matters of the film. Remember to notify all the main creative members and ask them to be on time to attend!"

"Do you need to notify China Film?"

"I will call Mr. La in person. We will go to the capital to hold a press conference for the project. We must stir up the heat, which will also help the subsequent promotion of the film."

"Okay, Mr. Jiang, I will arrange it now."

"Well, go ahead."

As the office door was closed again, Jiang Zhiqi's murmurs slowly sounded: "Monster Hunt 1 should have been able to break through the 2 billion box office, but it was set up by Pan Asia Cinema.

Now Monster Hunt 2 is about to set sail, and it also has the support of China Film, Hengdian Films, and Tencent Penguin Films. I don't believe who can stop it this time?!

At the end of this month, Enlightenment Pictures will once again shine in the entire Chinese film industry!"
