Han Fei didn't know anything about the outside world until one day he received a call from Li Junmiao, who asked him if he needed investment.
Han Fei was stunned for a moment: "If Mr. Li is interested, it's not impossible."
As soon as he heard Han Fei's words, Li Junmiao understood: "Hey, you don't know yet, right? The outside world is now rumoring that your investment failed and your new film will be aborted."
"What's this all about?" Han Fei couldn't help but smile bitterly. He was really popular among many people. He had been staying at the filming base for half a year, and the media was still thinking of making an issue about him.
"So, you didn't fail in your investment, right?" Li Junmiao also secretly breathed a sigh of relief. He knew very well what Han Fei was doing now and what it meant to Chinese-language films. It was a billion investment. If the capital chain broke midway,
, even greater than the box office failure.
At that time, investors will withdraw their capital one after another, and slightly larger investments will be restricted. At that time, it will be a nightmare for Chinese-language movies. No one in the same circle can want to stay out of it.
Li Junmiao was reassured and then thought about it. Han Fei had always been a solitary person in his films. He seemed to be relenting just now, so he asked tentatively: "Mr. Han just said that he can accept investment?"
"Well, others can't, but for the sake of Mr. Li being the first to call, I can accept an investment of 100 million, how about it?" Han Fei said half-jokingly.
Li Junmiao secretly rolled his eyes, listen, is this human talk? Which producer would treat investors as if they were meeting an uncle? But this guy said: "I accept your investment, yes."
He is probably the only one in the entire film and television industry who has the attitude to give you face.
"You kid, come on, I'm not as courageous as you. 50 million is enough to support the sky."
After hanging up the phone, Han Fei was actually not short of the 50 million. He was interested in the American financial capital behind Xingyi Media. As of now, Chinese-language films have not opened up the North American market for nearly ten years.
, if you want to rush out, you need capital to drive it, otherwise the possibility of success is almost zero.
There has been no response from Han Fei, and the rumors from the outside world have become more and more outrageous. Especially after the media discovered that Xingyi Media transferred 50 million funds to Feiniao Film and Television, the rumors that Han Fei's capital chain collapsed were confirmed.
Although Li Junmiao has repeatedly clarified, the outside world does not believe his words. After all, Han Fei is known to like to eat alone. If he really couldn't stand it, how could he accept the investment from Xingyi Media?
Well, it’s so reasonable that Li Junmiao can’t even explain it.
Then Han Fei received calls from many friends, including Teacher He and Teacher Wang, as well as Xie Buchen and others. Yang Kexin said domineeringly: If you get into debt in the future, I will support you, and Zhang Yue will also join in the fun.
I transferred 30 million directly to him.
If it hadn't been for such a fuss, Han Fei would have never known that he was so popular in the industry. Unfortunately, more and more people called him, so Han Fei could only clarify on his Weibo.
However, some people still think that he is just holding on, and Han Fei simply doesn't bother to explain. In fact, his investment tendencies have always been very conservative, and he buys funds with relatively low returns. He may suffer losses in the short term, but in the long run
It seems that there is still money to be made, with the annual rate of return generally around 5%.
The outside speculation did not interfere with the normal filming of the crew. Although some people were talking behind their backs, seeing that everything was calm on the crew and the staff were doing their jobs meticulously, the actors soon let go of their anxiety.
.
"Click, OK, great, I announce that Teacher Zhao's play is finished!"
The crew burst into applause. Zhao Mengru dusted off the ash on his face and head. This was the last scene where he received a box lunch. His face and head were covered with ice particles, but it was midsummer and the ice melted them quickly. Finally,
You can only use gray paint on your face and cover it with special effects later.
"Thank you, it's all hard work." Zhao Mengru also breathed a long sigh of relief. He has been acting for so many years. To be honest, this is the most difficult film to shoot because there are too many special effects shots. Many times he is right.
Acting in the air, only when the director talks about the play, he knows what kind of scene will be in front of him, which is a test of his performance skills without physical objects.
"Old man, thank you for your hard work." Han Fei greeted him.
Zhao Mengru smiled bitterly: "It's hard enough. Now I almost lost my life here. Hey, I'm old, my body and bones are not working anymore. When I was young, and I'm not bragging, I didn't even use oxygen during the filming of this film.
"
Okay, let's pretend you're not bragging. Han Fei secretly complained and sent Zhao Mengru to the hotel to rest.
"When promoting this drama, please remember to give me a shout out, as my old bones can still be of help." Zhao Mengru shut his mouth tightly.
Han Fei nodded: "Of course." To be honest, if it weren't for the huge investment in this film and the need to do the best in every aspect to achieve the expected results, he really wouldn't want to let the old man follow.
It’s so tiring to do all the promotional work together.
For those who work seriously, time always passes so casually. Unknowingly, the filming period of "The Wandering Earth" officially reached one year.
The outside world seems to have lost enthusiasm for this film, which has an investment of 1 billion and has been in production for a year with no news of finalization. Many media have also begun to turn their attention to other stars and gossip.
This year, the entertainment industry has not changed much. Some traffic stars have become confused, and then a new batch of traffic appears. Capital can always find a way to harvest leeks.
In the same year, the Chinese film market also emerged, with many high-quality films. Gold Medal Films finally won the 11th box office championship with its "Little People", with a total box office of 2.38 billion. This result was originally quite good, but
Compared with the previous box office records of the 11th, this number always feels a little watery.
This year's Chinese film market seems to be a little quiet. It's not like last year when a hundred flowers bloomed. This situation seems to have continued into the Lunar New Year period. Until New Year's Day, no film's box office exceeded 2.5 billion.
In the comment area of Douban.com, many movie fans also commented, saying that the Chinese film market this year was boring. At the same time, many movie fans started to talk about Han Fei.
Some fans even said that Han Fei's sudden silence caused the entire Chinese-language film to lose its original vitality. Everyone seemed to be busy making money. However, there was no innovation in the film itself, either in terms of subject matter or visual effects.
.
In this regard, Huang Hexiang said that he was very hurt. He finally won the box office championship once, but there was no media coverage? This is too unscientific. In the past, you didn't react this way when Han Fei won the box office championship.
And one day in April after the New Year, a piece of news broke on the Internet that "The Wandering Earth" had been completed. For a while, many media outlets did not even bother to check the authenticity of the news and directly forwarded it.
As a result, the overwhelming public opinion created a sense of déjà vu that "that man is finally back."
