It's reasonable for me, a stuntman, to live a crazy life, right?

Chapter 1083 Where will the future go without the monotony of movies? Dreams...weird and bizarre!

The popularity of "Wolf Warrior 2", which has exceeded 5 billion in box office, continues to ferment, and there is no sign of stopping in a short time.

At the same time, many movies released on the 18th have gradually entered the attention of netizens and movie fans.

Looking at it, the most popular one is "Ten Cold 2". There are many fans discussing this movie online, and the real-time box office data on the online ticketing platform is also rising.

At the same time, because many blockbusters were released, many movies were forced to be canceled by theaters.

For example, China Film's "The Founding of the Army" and Huayi Investment's "I Am Marbury" and other films.

The former was not bad. Although the box office was only over 400 million, the cost was recovered and there was no loss.

But the latter is even worse.

"Director Wang, Mr. Wang... the total box office of "I Am Marbury" is 8.9 million."

In the office, the two Wang brothers listened to the assistant's report and were stunned for a long time without being able to recover.

8.9 million?

Listen!

This number is as ridiculous as Indian Asan falling in love with a lizard!

However, this is the real situation. The number 8.9 million needs to appear in the financial report and be made public.

"You go out first."

Wang Zhonglei waved his hand and sent the assistant out first.

When the office door closed, Wang Zhongjun, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked: "What is the current market value of Huayi Company?"

Wang Zhonglei was slightly stunned and replied: "Based on today's A-share stock price, Huayi's total market value is 23.1 billion, and because of the failure of "I Am Marbury", I am afraid it will lose some more tomorrow."

"Alas!" After letting out a long sigh, Wang Zhongjun murmured: ""Wolf Warrior 2" actually exceeded 5 billion in box office? The box office performance of a movie is actually enough to reach a quarter of Huayi's market value, haha , This is really fantasy.”

"Brother, you can't compare it like this. There is a huge difference between 5 billion for a listed company and 5 billion for a movie box office..."

Wang Zhonglei hurriedly explained, even a little doubting whether his brother had a fever some time ago and burned his head. How could it be compared like this?

However, before he could finish speaking, Wang Zhongjun interrupted: "Do you think our previously decided strategy of "de-simplification of films" went the wrong way?"

Over the years, Wang Zhongjun has always felt that he is one of the leaders in the entertainment industry. After all, what he says can affect the direction of the entire industry.

Especially after the company went public in 2009, as his wealth increased on a large scale and the company became larger and larger, his self-confidence became stronger!

When he first set out a pan-entertainment strategy and decided to enter the Internet, theater construction, real estate industry, and build a movie-themed town, he was also full of confidence.

Having worked in movies for more than 20 years, he knows very well that movies have a long investment cycle, high risks, and very difficult to grasp the rate of return. In terms of making money, they are definitely not as good as the Internet, finance, and real estate.

After changing its investment direction, Huayi's stock price and market value once again experienced a surge, and it was infinitely close to the "100 billion market value" mark!

And this also made Wang Zhongjun's mentality even more inflated.

He even considered using a large sum of money to buy an island abroad and turn it into his own "palace"!

However, soon, with the advent of the financial crisis, Huayi's bubble was burst, and its market value dropped from more than 80 billion to more than 20 billion.

Nowadays, with the frequent release of domestic high-box office movies in recent years...especially those movies produced by Feiyue Film and Television, the box office is even higher than the previous one! Now, a 5 billion box office masterpiece has been born!

While his eyes were greedy, Wang Zhongjun was already full of confusion and doubts.

He suddenly began to think, if the company had focused on film and television production and brokerage business, with the support from above, would it have achieved its goal of exceeding 100 billion in market value already?

After all, eight years ago, Huayi was the only company listed as a private film and television company.

At present, the government has given them a lot of subsidies and subsidies, almost single-handedly helping them enter the A-share market.

Unfortunately, they failed to live up to the high expectations from above and started to "de-simplify movies", which made the leaders in charge at the time very dissatisfied.

But dissatisfaction ended with dissatisfaction, and Huayi resolutely embarked on another path.

The slogan that was shouted at the beginning was "de-simplification of movies", but now, the word "single" in it seems to have disappeared...

However, listening to his brother's words, Wang Zhonglei disagreed very much.

He only cares about the company's stock price, because this is real money. It doesn't matter what industry he is in. He can choose whichever one is profitable.

"Brother, I think you should not think too much. There is no need. Let's study carefully how to arrange the movies invested by the company in the future, and how to use these movies to clean some dirty 'things'. As for the other things , What does it matter to him?”

"..."

Wang Zhongjun knew in his heart that Wang Zhonglei did not like to hear what he said.

But for some reason, he always had a bad feeling in his heart.

It would be fine if they could continue like this, but if what they were doing was discovered one day, they would be in big trouble!

"Forget it, let's talk about it then. Besides, if you do it so secretly, can you still be discovered?"

After muttering to himself for a few words, Wang Zhongjun changed the topic: "How is the post-production of "Ex-Files 3" and "Detective Dee: The Four Heavenly Kings" going? Is it going smoothly?"

"Yeah, it's going pretty smoothly."

Wang Zhonglei responded, and then asked back: "By the way, brother, the post-production of "Ex-Files 3" is almost over. When do you think it would be appropriate to schedule this movie?"

Wang Zhongjun subconsciously said: "The summer vacation is almost over, and the remaining ones are the National Day and Lunar New Year schedules?"

"No! You can't go to either of them!"

Wang Zhonglei said his opposition categorically, and explained: "The National Day schedule has several blockbusters such as "Sewing Machine Band", "Sky Hunter", "The Shameful Iron Fist", and "Beyond the Shadows", which have already given the market to It's almost divided.

Especially the movie "Sky Hunter", which is influenced by "Operation Red Sea" and "Wolf Warrior 2". The market is very optimistic about this movie. Li Chen has even made his character into a "copy" of Wu Jing, and the popularity is at its peak. "Ex-Files 3" will only be crushed.

As for the Lunar New Year period, there are several blockbusters such as "Dying to Survive", "Youth", "Legend of the Demon Cat", and "Ready Player One". I don't think "Ex-Files 3" can stand out. "

Hearing this, Wang Zhongjun couldn't help but wonder: "This period is not good, and that period is not good. How to arrange it?"

"Ye Ning recommended the January period, which just took over the Lunar New Year period and can also take advantage of the popularity of the Spring Festival period."

"Then let's go to January." Wang Zhongjun agreed without much consideration.

The two movies they currently value most are "Youth" and "Detective Dee: The Four Heavenly Kings". As for "Ex-Files 3", the two of them don't really care much about it.

The reason is very simple. The investment scale of this movie is too small, and the operating space is almost non-existent, which does not meet their expectations at all.

As long as it is not a loss, it can be released at any time.

…

…

No matter how turbulent the domestic situation is, it will not affect Chen Fei at all.

The next morning, a new day of shooting for "Manchester by the Sea" officially started.

The male protagonist Lee Chandler was taken to the police station because of a drunken loss of control and a conflict with others.

The conflict originated from his dispute with others in the bar, and then he wandered aimlessly on the street, showing obvious depression and suicidal tendencies. Therefore, the police took him to the police station for questioning and placement for safety reasons.

After being taken to the interrogation room, he sat on a hard chair.

Facing the indifferent walls and the lights in the interrogation room, his eyes were empty and his face was haggard, revealing deep despair and helplessness.

The anesthesia of alcohol did not alleviate his inner pain, but instead made those deep memories surge out like unlocked floods.

He once again recalled the fire that took the lives of three children. It was the darkest moment of his life!

Whenever it was late at night, those painful memories would haunt him like a demon, making him unable to sleep.

He felt that he was a complete loser, an incompetent person who could not protect his family... This deep self-blame and guilt were like invisible shackles, trapping him firmly in the shadow of the past.

At this moment, he once again clearly realized that his life had completely lost its meaning, and every breath seemed to remind him of the unforgivable mistakes he had made.

So when he was about to leave the police station, he suddenly made an amazing move!

He rushed forward and snatched a gun from the gun bag on the waist of a passing policeman!

His finger was on the trigger, and his eyes flashed with a resolute light... At this moment, he seemed to see the dawn of liberation, a possibility of liberation from endless pain.

However, the moment he pulled the trigger, the gunshot did not sound.

He forgot to load the bullet...

Without any hesitation, he pulled the bolt, ready to point the gun at his temple again.

But at this time, the policemen coming and going around discovered his actions in time and quickly took action to stop him.

He failed... He will be immersed in pain again and can't extricate himself!

"Click!"

As Chen Fei's voice sounded, the originally restless police station suddenly quieted down.

The police officers loosened their hands holding Matt Damon and stepped aside.

Matt sat on the ground, gasping for breath, like a fish about to die of thirst, his eyes full of pain, despair and rejection of the world!

The psychologist rushed over and came to his side, gently soothing his emotions.

"Fei, this guy is in a bad state. I feel that he is too deep into the play. I am afraid that it will affect his subsequent life after the filming of the movie is completed."

Leonardo walked to Chen Fei and whispered his judgment.

Chen Fei nodded slightly and responded: "It is obvious that the failure of "The Great Wall" put him under great pressure. He wanted the movie to succeed so much that he forced himself not to act out after the filming was over."

Leo shrugged and complained: "Men with families are like this. In order to raise children, one is more desperate than the other."

Chen Fei thought for a moment and suddenly changed the subject: "Leon, do you have time to help me do something?"

"What?"

"Go to Los Angeles and pick up his wife and children, and let them appear on the set tomorrow."

"Hmm? That's a good idea!"

Leonardo's eyes lit up, and he nodded and agreed immediately. He soon left the set and headed straight for Los Angeles.

He didn't want to see his friend sink into a nightmare because of a movie and never get out of it.

Although he and Matt Damon often quarreled and insulted each other all day long, they were close friends and had a very deep friendship.

So, if he could help Matt Damon, he would be very happy to do it.

~

The day's shooting ended smoothly.

Matt Damon was not surprised by Leonardo's departure. After all, the latter had often appeared and disappeared before, and he had long been accustomed to it.

After dinner, he once again rejected the invitation of others to play cards, and at the same time said goodbye to the psychiatrist and returned to the room alone.

The film will be finished tomorrow, and he must maintain his current state and not act out of character.

The final ending is crucial. In order to win the award, he has already risked everything!

After watching him leave the restaurant, Chen Fei found Matt Damon's assistant and solemnly instructed: "Always pay attention to Matt's condition. If there is anything wrong, notify me immediately."

"Okay."

The assistant responded, stood up quickly, and chased in the direction where Matt Damon left.

After dinner, Chen Fei returned to the room.

He was originally going to make a video call to Liu Yifei, but just as he took out his phone, a caller ID suddenly appeared on the screen.

Pressing the connect button, he said: "Yang Yu?"

"Director Chen, are you busy?"

"It's okay, go ahead, what's the matter?"

"Nothing, I just want to tell you about something." Yang Yu's tone was a little depressed.

"What's the situation?" Chen Fei asked curiously.

"Recently, there was a news about a Sino-US co-production animation "Transformers: Nezha" on the Internet... It tells the story of the protagonist Xiao Zha who has always dreamed of becoming a hero like Nezha and Transformers. One day, he was suddenly summoned and teleported to the other world where Nezha was while sleeping. After that, Xiao Zha and Nezha and others joined hands to defeat evil together.

Then I received news that Stephen Davis, the global CEO of Hasbro, led the team to CCTV Animation Co., Ltd. some time ago to discuss the co-production animation project "Transformers: Nezha", and reached a consensus on production specifications, broadcast time, intellectual property ownership, legal affairs, etc.

I am a little worried now. Will this Sino-US co-production animation affect our upcoming "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World"? Especially in terms of copyright, if there is a problem, it will be troublesome."

"Nezha and Transformers???"

On the other end of the phone, listening to Yang Yu's description, Chen Fei's face was already full of confusion.

Nezha combined with Transformers? What kind of style is this?

Hybridization is okay, but promiscuity is a bit too much, right?

After being stunned for a while, he comforted Yang Yu: "You don't have to worry about copyright. As an image in ancient myths and legends, Nezha has experienced a long period of inheritance and evolution, so the copyright of the original image cannot be traced back to a specific author, so its original image has entered the public domain.

According to the provisions of my country's Copyright Law, the copyright of a work belongs to the author, and the protection period is the author's lifetime plus 50 years after his death.

Now the author of the character Nezha has been buried for a long time, so there is no need to worry about the copyright of the production."

Speaking of this, he couldn't help but pause for a moment.

The combination of Nezha and Transformers is so outrageous that he didn't know how to comment for a while...

"Anyway, just shoot our "Ne Zha" safely and steadily, and you don't have to care about the others. Let them do whatever they want. It has nothing to do with us anyway."

"Well, okay, then I'm relieved."

Yang Yu breathed a sigh of relief, hung up the phone, and continued to work.

At this time, Chen Fei subconsciously went to the entertainment news website and searched for relevant information about "Transformers: Nezha".

According to the information released, Nezha in "Transformers: Nezha" is still the "young hero Nezha" in the 2003 version.

However, he can transform into a huge "Transformer Nezha", and the iconic ball head is also reflected in the mechanical design.

At the same time, Shiji Niangniang, Xiaolongnu, Tuxingsun, and Lei Zhenzi also have mecha transformation forms...

Seeing this, Chen Fei inexplicably thought of the 1989 comic "Sun Wukong Fights Transformers Three Times".

Now, this "Transformers: Nezha" is somewhat similar to the former, or it can be said that it is completely in the same vein!

"My grandma's legs, this is really magical!"

Chen Fei shook his head, exited the website, found Liu Yifei's WeChat, and chatted with her again on the phone.

He didn't go to bed late tonight, but he didn't sleep well all night.

Because my mind is too messy!

There are so many bizarre scenes in the dream...

Smoke rises on Cybertron, Lin Daiyu captures Megatron seven times!

Diao Chan goes to the Kingdom of Light seven times, kills Tiga and captures Taro alive!

Li Bai cleverly sets up a series of tricks, Xi Shi captures Emperor Huang Tian alive!

Ma Chao bravely captured Singapore, and Kong Ming overturned the theory of flat earth!

Guan Yu lost California due to carelessness, and the light boat had already passed San Francisco!

The old Jade Emperor made a wild statement, and the Shu army arrived at the Lingxiao Palace!

Huang Zhong rode and shot Apollo, and Wei Yan angrily killed Maitreya Buddha!

The dream was so wonderful that he couldn't sleep well, really couldn't sleep well!

As a result, the next morning, he went to the crew of "Manchester by the Sea" with two dark circles under his eyes.

In order not to be discovered by other crew members, he deliberately wore sunglasses and temporarily became the King of Sunglasses.

Leonardo, who rushed back from Los Angeles early in the morning, looked at his outfit and couldn't help wondering: "Fei? What are you doing? Cosplay?"

"I have conjunctivitis, my eyes hurt, I'm afraid of the wind, so I cover them."

Fai Chen made up an excuse and changed the subject naturally: "Where are the people? Have you brought them here?"

"Well, everything has been arranged. They will show up when the filming is finished."

"Okay, let's get ready."

Fai Chen pushed the sunglasses on his nose, and at a command, all the crew members immediately entered the shooting state.
