Chapter 227 The storm is rising


Chapter 227 The storm is rising

Sister Mei spread the news that day.

Screenwriter Xiao Chen made it clear that he is not optimistic about the script of "Red Cliff"!

Although this story was only circulated in the circle at first, reporters always have great powers.

Soon, the media also learned about the relevant news.

Xiao Chen is really the savior of the media, knowing that everyone needs to boost performance at the end of the year.

Various entertainment media and tabloids began to report on it, and gradually spread to larger film and television media.

After all, "Red Cliff" is a hot-selling big production today, but it has been picked up by the industry. Chen Linfeng, who has never failed, thinks the script is not good.

This is a report that will attract attention at a glance.

Some media dug into the inside story of this. Chen Linfeng was invited to play the role. Because it was an exchange between a few people, it was not well known.

However, the script of "Red Cliff" was changed one after another, and the fact that the script written by Lu Wei was not recognized in the end has long been circulated in the industry.

And the classic conversation between Lu Wei and Wu Yusen was also circulated.

The Internet was in an uproar.

“What am I talking about? The domestic film and television industry is completely fucked. Listen, looking for peace in a Three Kingdoms movie is as ridiculous as looking for pure love in a neon movie.”

"If Xiao Chen doesn't like the movie, then I can give up in advance."

"If you don't hold out hope, you won't be disappointed. Don't try to trick me into watching other dramas right away. Anyway, I only watch Xiao Chen's dramas."

Wu Yusen has made a name for himself in Hollywood after all. The great director also has a group of people surrounding him.

These people will also fight back in various related posts.

“Xiao Chen has only been in the industry for a few years, and he dares to criticize a film directed by a Hollywood director?”

“It’s really ridiculous. You don’t even look at how many years you have had a job, and you start to belittle him. Senior.”

But what they can't refute is that this "Peace Shooting" is too funny.

Often as soon as netizens bring this matter up, the other party will immediately start to talk about him or just pretend to be silent.

Some "netizens" also spread some of Wu Yusen's "good deeds" in Hollywood.

For example, the glorious deed of bankrupting a major Hollywood studio.

This kind of post is quickly known to a large number of passers-by through the long-term retention homepage in the background.

Public opinion soon became one-sided.

Not two days later, Chen Linfeng received a call from Shen Fei of China Film Studio.

"Brother Shen, why are you calling me when you have time?"

Shen Fei said with some complaints, "Xiao Chen, what kind of disagreement did you have with Wu Da? Brother, why bother expressing your dissatisfaction with the movie?”

“No, I don’t even know Wu Yusen. There is nothing against us.”

Shen Fei: "Don't tell me. The news in newspapers and on the Internet these days has nothing to do with you. I have heard about it. When I first communicated with people about your agent, I said you were not optimistic about "Red Cliff"."

Chen Linfeng said in surprise, "I said something casually when I was chatting with Sister Mei. I didn't expect that Sister Mei didn't keep her words. I will talk about her later."

Shen Fei was furious. , "Why don't you do this to me? We have known each other for a long time. If we know who you are, Xiao Chen, just tell me what Director Wu did wrong.

Mr. Han asked me to fight. This phone call has no other meaning. It is mainly because we are friends who should be reconciled rather than married.

We are all from the director's circle. We will never see each other again. There is no need for the relationship to be so tense. "< br>


Chen Linfeng said calmly, "Now it's said that everyone is in the director circle. Then Brother Shen, ask Director Wu what it means to ask me to play Zhao Yun. As a director, I should be stepped on by others and be lifted up by others." Arrogant?"

Shen Fei asked in surprise, "Wu Yusen invited you to play Zhao Yun?"

"Yes."

The case is solved now.

Let me tell you, Xiao Chen never provokes him, that's all. If he is provoked, there will definitely be a counterattack.

Shen Fei knew the inside story of the movie, and knew what role Zhao Yun played in the movie "Red Cliff". He was almost a supporting character outside of the top five.

If it is true that Wu Yusen sent an invitation to Xiao Chen to play Zhao Yun.

What Xiao Chen said about putting on airs is really not nonsense.

In the entertainment industry, this kind of thing has always been very sensitive.

It would be better if you were a great director, and let a first-line actor promote others, or degrade yourself.

These actors will definitely be dissatisfied, but since the other party is a senior director, they can only curse a few words in their hearts. Sometimes, for the sake of follow-up resources, they might actually agree.

But who is Xiao Chen? His original status and various types of work are superimposed. He is not necessarily lower than you, Wu Yusen.

The most important thing is that Xiao Chen himself is the top screenwriter in the country and can also direct, so he has no worries about resources.

It is a bit insulting to ask Xiao Chen to be a matchmaker, who is not even a third-level matchmaker.

This is just like asking Jiang Wen to be a mistress. Would a normal person do such a thing?

Most people would not swallow their anger to this extent. It is normal to say a few words of complaint. Besides, Xiao Chen has always had a retributive temper since he was a child.

Shen Fei is willing to figure things out, and it is no longer easy to play the role of peacemaker at this time.

He said with some embarrassment, "Brother Shen didn't understand the situation. If this is true, Xiao Chen, you did the right thing. It has even given us Huaying enough face. I don't Enough talk. I’ll toast you and apologize when we meet again.”

“Hey, Brother Shen didn’t do anything wrong. We’re all our own people. There’s no need to show off.”

“Yes, yes. Yes, I will hang up now and report the news to the leader.”

"Well, goodbye."

......

Shen Fei hung up the phone with a very ugly look on his face.

What a mess this is!

Since the preparation of "Red Cliff" began, there have been constant troubles. The director was picky about the script, and there were also many contradictions in the selection of actors.

Now, filming will start in a few months, and Xiao Chen can still be provoked.

My popularity is so high now, and my status is not low. It’s hard to suppress whatever I say casually.

The most important thing is that Xiao Chen's vision for selecting dramas is well-known in the industry. The past experience of Long and Qilin Company has completely proved this.

Now because of Xiao Chen’s words, some investors have begun to waver, which is a bit fatal.

Shen Fei is not busy reporting the situation to Mr. Han. He first contacts the person to confirm again whether there is any misinformation in Xiao Chen's words or other situations.

After making several phone calls, it was confirmed that Wu Yusen thought Xiao Chen was quite popular and wanted to add some stars to the film.

There is no consideration for the other party’s status at all.

Wu Yusen was still eloquent on the phone, "As a child, even if he has some achievements, he can be coaxed after being invited over. Moreover, Zhao Yun is so famous in the Three Kingdoms, I thought he would definitely be willing to act."

He also complained first, "How did this kid know that Zhao Yun was a supporting actor? Someone on the crew must have leaked the script, and this person should be investigated strictly."

Shen Fei heard at that time At this point, I almost sprayed it back.

"Do you think Xiao Chen has been a genius for so many years? You can just coax him. How can you coax the number one scholar in the country?" That’s why we didn’t start an argument directly on the phone.

As soon as the situation was confirmed, Shen Fei was about to report to Mr. Han, but he got another call from Zhou Runfa’s agent. "Mr. Shen, let me tell you straight. Mr. Fang Zhou is officially resigning from the film "Red Cliff".

Of course it is not right to say that he will resign. Director Wu has been urging him to do so before. Mr. Zhou, he was quite hesitant. In fact, he never explicitly agreed to take on this role.

But now I heard that Director Xiao Chen was not optimistic about it either. Mr. Zhou finally made up his mind. We thought it would be better to give a formal reply. "

Shen Fei's brain is about to explode. Are you going to cause trouble now?

He said eagerly, "But Mr. Zhou had already acquiesced before, right? Moreover, the crew's preparations are nearing completion, and many of the costumes and props are based on your standards.

If you say you won’t act at this time, it will be difficult for us to handle the follow-up. "

The agent said sincerely, "It is difficult for us to handle it. Director Xiao Chen has such a good vision, and he is not optimistic about the Oscar for Best Screenplay. Mr. Zhou is really worried.

And, to be honest, Mr. Zhou has not seen the complete script so far. He keeps changing screenwriters and changing the script back and forth, which is indeed very unprofessional.

I have also heard the rumors in the circle. I have to think that Director Wu did not consider things well this time. I hope Manager Shen can also understand Mr. Zhou's difficulties. "

Shen Fei was already scolding in his heart.

You Chow Yun-fat put forward so many conditions, and the crew was already trying their best to meet them. Now you talk about the script.

And you asked for such a high salary, and the crew agreed to it. Even this is not acceptable. Are you bullying others?

He solemnly confirmed, "Are you sure you want to resign?"

The agent's tone was a little more humble, "Yes, I'm sorry that we couldn't reach a cooperation this time due to various reasons. I hope There will be opportunities for cooperation in the future.”

The devil will cooperate with you!

Shen Fei hung up the phone without saying anything.

He began to have a headache as to how to reply to Mr. Han.

Han Shanping's office.

Han Shanping was not angry and boastful, "How did this matter develop into what it is now?"

Shen Fei said bravely, "It's a chain reaction. I guess Chow Yun-fat had to resign. Xiao Chen’s words are just an excuse.”

This is true. In his previous life, Chow Yun-fat also resigned, but his nature was much worse than this before the filming started.

It is not that Shen Fei did not notice the corresponding signs.

It's just that the negotiations have been advancing in an orderly manner, and the crew has been thinking of ways to resolve Chow Yun-fat's various doubts and conditions, thinking that they can finally negotiate.

Unexpectedly, because of Xiao Chen’s remarks, it broke out in advance.

After hearing what Shen Fei listed, Han Shanping tentatively agreed with this explanation.

"What's going on with Xiao Chen? Why did he suddenly start to have trouble with "Red Cliff"?"

Shen Fei smiled bitterly, "It's not that he has trouble with "Red Cliff", but that he has trouble with Director Wu. .”

"How do you say it?"

Shen Fei recounted the reasons before and after, focusing on the importance of the role of Zhao Yun.

"Play the piano randomly!" Han Shanping slammed the table.

"This Wu Yusen is really mean. Xiao Chen is Yan Ying's baby bump. He is so insulting. Have you ever thought about the future?"

Han Shanping leaned on the back of the chair. , "This public opinion cannot be suppressed at all."

Yes, of course it’s not easy to suppress.

At this moment, the leaders of Yanying Academy have heard about this. Of course, some people have also explained the reasons behind it in detail.

"What's going on with Wu Yusen? We in the mainland have finally cultivated him. He is the only one who can surpass the top male stars there. Does he want to destroy him?"

The leaders of the college were thinking further. They wondered whether this was intentional or unintentional.

RTHK has always used mainland stars to promote their own actors.

It’s just that in the past, people were more or less particular about their food appearance.

Although the main actors are generally actors from Hong Kong and Taiwan, they are at least top stars from Hong Kong and Taiwan. There is no status difference with mainland actors, and they are often even higher.

This way, even if you were asked to play a supporting role, it would be hard for everyone to say anything.

But this time is different. If Xiao Chen is compared with Chow Yun-fat, it will be difficult to compare.

How about compared with Jin Chengwu, Zhang Zhen and Lin Zhiling?

It's not a concept at all.

However, Wu Yusen dared to let Xiao Chen be under these people.

Several leaders discussed and discussed, and finally Dean Zhang Jun made the decision.

“Let’s not talk about whether there are other ideas here. At least Xiao Chen did not do anything wrong. Let’s express our attitude first. I will ask Mr. Han the rest before making a decision.”

After the meeting, Zhang Jun called Han Shanping.

"Old Han, let me ask you something. Is this child Xiao Chen so disliked there that he must destroy him?"

Han Shanping couldn't help but have a headache. This old classmate He protects the calf as soon as he comes up.

"Old Zhang, what you said is serious. It's okay. Wu Yusen is just out of his mind and has no other intentions."

"That's impossible to say. , This is not the first time this has happened in the past few years. I don’t care about anything else. At least Xiao Chen cannot be bullied because of these inexplicable methods."

Zhang Jun began to speak earnestly, "It is not easy for our school. If the trained talents fail to live up to their expectations and can’t get up, I won’t allow them to be manipulated by other means.”

"After all, he is just a child. Do you think we adults can stop looking after him more?"

Han Shanping was full of complaints.

Xiao Chen is quite good in the industry, he has always been smooth sailing, and few people dare to challenge him.

This time Wu Yusen just showed his intention and immediately rejected it. He also spread rumors in the industry, which made it difficult for me to make this movie. Now several investors have doubts. .

It’s just that Wu Yusen was too passive in this matter, and it was difficult for him to say anything to save it.

In the end, he could only agree, "Xiao Chen is a good boy. No one will mess around. I won't agree to let me go. This incident will not affect Xiao Chen. Don't worry."
< br>He suddenly thought of another recent news about Chen Linfeng.

"I heard that Xiao Chen is about to make a movie. This kid only asked your school for help. He didn't even know to come to my place to say goodbye to the dock. After all, he is still young.

For your sake Come on, I'll take the initiative to call him and get to know him, how about it?"

Zhang Jun softened his tone, thinking that he knew that at least Huaying was not involved in this matter.

"The relationship is good, how about I take him to you in two days?"

"No, no, you are very busy. I just need to see him. Don't worry, I won't give him anything." It’s ugly.”

“Okay, I’m a little angry today. I’ll give you a toast next time.”

“Okay, it’s settled.”

The number of words is 8k, which is an extra update if the monthly subscription is over 1,000 this month. It’s over. The monthly subscription is now more than 1,400, almost 1,500.

Although the monthly ticket is only of practical significance for every thousand dollars, this bonus should not be available. . .
