Generally speaking, the movie "Tang" is a relatively qualified comedy movie, especially among domestic films. Therefore, Chen Feng's recommendation on Weibo is not a violation of conscience.
Of course, "Tang" really cannot be compared with "Charlotte Trouble". Otherwise, Xu Fan would not have "admitted defeat" straightforwardly on Weibo. Even if it seemed like "admitting defeat" was just a joke, it was still true after all.
It's like admitting defeat.
This not only shows that Xu Fan has a high emotional intelligence, but also shows that Xu Fan is very clear that "Tang" cannot compare with "Charlotte". Firstly, it cannot compare at all in terms of comedy effect, and secondly, it cannot compare with the quality of the script.
Of course, the most important thing is that it cannot compare at the box office.
"Charlotte" has a box office of over 100 million for three consecutive days. This kind of achievement is rare for domestic films. Only a few years ago, a costume film directed by a national master-level director had this honor, but that film at that time
The production cost is astonishingly high at 500 million, and it has a gathering of big-name stars. Chen Feng's "Charlotte" is completely incomparable in this regard.
So, to be honest, Chen Feng's second movie created another box office miracle. After all, the production cost was only more than 30 million. It made a profit on the first day of release. After that, the box office exceeded 100 million for two consecutive days.
This kind of achievement, at least in the field of comedy films, is unique in China.
Even Xu Fan, who was previously known as the number one drama director in the country, did not have such good results with his top-grossing film "Horse". His box office of more than 1 billion was achieved through three months of accumulation.
This is also the reason why Xu Fan had to take the initiative to bow to "Charlotte" and Chen Feng on Weibo. In addition to the hype, he also took the initiative to break away from the online comparison between "Tang" and "Charlotte".
Otherwise, those netizens who compare the two movies again and again will definitely continue to lower the reputation of "Tang" and thus affect the final box office.
The audience's eyes are sharp. Everyone buys a ticket and goes to the cinema. Which of the two movies is good and which is not good, and which one is funnier is very objective. This is true after Xu Fan himself has watched "Charlotte"
After that, I felt even more deeply.
Therefore, after careful consideration, he posted this "admit defeat" Weibo. While hyping himself and the movie, it can also help the two movies break away from the contradictory state of being compared and become mutually beneficial.
Chen Feng's subsequent statement undoubtedly made Xu Fan feel relieved. After all, Chen Feng is "notorious" on the Internet, especially on Weibo. He has fought with many people, and so far I have not been defeated.
.
Now things are going well, both sides praise each other, especially Chen Feng's recommendation of "Tang", which has made Xu Fan gain real benefits.
The next day after their Weibo interaction, the box office increased by nearly 10 million. This is the influence of Xu Fan's operation and Chen Feng's recommendation.
For this reason, Xu Fan specially posted a screenshot of the day's box office data to his Weibo and expressed his gratitude to Chen Feng.
"I didn't expect that yesterday's box office increased by nearly 10 million, which is good news for our crew. Here, I would like to thank Director Chen Feng and Chen for his recommendation on Weibo. When you return to China, I will treat you to a meal to thank you.
"
Chen Feng did not respond to him this time. He had already given the favor, so there was no need to interact with him any more. He was not that cheap. More importantly, the two of them did not know each other after all. There was no need for Chen Feng to get into trouble.
Go and post.
The filming of "Prada" is proceeding in an orderly manner. Chen Feng still quite recognizes Holdman's directing skills. Although it is not as good as his systematic directing proficiency, it is not much different.
Therefore, during the filming, the producer Chen Feng basically did not intervene. And he usually didn't say much.
You know, in Hollywood, producers generally have great power. They are often more powerful than directors, and they often interfere in the filming of movies. But Chen Feng did not do this at all, especially when Chen Feng is a best-selling movie
As a director, this is even more rare.
Therefore, Holdman admires Chen Feng very much as a producer. Not only does he admire his professional knowledge, but also his personality. Putting himself in his shoes, he would definitely not be able to completely interfere. But Chen Feng
I did it, it’s really rare.
Therefore, Holdman often took the initiative to discuss the shooting of some scenes with Chen Feng during the breaks in filming. Chen Feng usually just gave his own opinions and views, but in the end it was left to Holdman to make the choice.
Of course, Chen Feng will not care about some minor issues. But if there is a big difference with Chen Feng's splitting of shots for him, Chen Feng will also raise objections.
Often at this time, Hodeman would choose to listen to Chen Feng. Because every time after careful consideration and review, it turned out that Chen Feng was right.
The storyboards Chen Feng gave him were very detailed, but that didn't mean that as a director, he just copied the story. He could still play freely within the framework of the storyboards.
The film was shot in Los Angeles in the early stages, then went to New York and the foggy city for filming, and finally went to Paris for filming.
The estimated filming cycle will take more than two months, and Chen Feng is not in a hurry.
When the crew went to New York for filming, the producer Chen Feng did not go with him. The main reason was that after this period of adaptation, Miranda's acting skills were already quite good, and the director Holdman
He also gained Chen Feng’s trust.
In addition, Tina's new album is about to be produced, and Chen Feng must stay at Beauty Beauty for the final check.
After Tina finally finished recording the last song of the new album that day, she came out of the recording room excitedly, hugged the producer Hawke with tears in her eyes, and then even hugged the boss Chen Feng with all her strength for a long time.
None of them let go.
Because it was in the recording studio, with the heater on and no one wearing much, Chen Feng felt her openness firsthand, which was a bit embarrassing.
After a full minute, Tina didn't mean to let him go. Chen Feng had no choice but to grab her shoulders with both hands, push her away and said: "Tina, now that you have finished recording is only the first step, you have to mess around next."
It will take at least half a month for the new album to come out. When the new album is officially produced and becomes a hit, it will not be too late for you to thank us."
Old Hawke laughed and said: "With my experience, this album will definitely sell well. Tina sings really well. The two title songs you wrote, Chen, are even more wonderful. With these two songs as the foundation, I
You can’t escape thinking about a gold record.”
Tina was pushed away by Chen Feng, but she was not annoyed or embarrassed. Instead, she smiled happily and said: "I feel the same way. To this day, I still feel as unreal as a dream. I never thought about myself
I can really become a singer. All this was given to me by my boss. I feel like Cinderella in the fairy tale, and my boss is the magician who turned me from Cinderella into a princess."
Chen Feng smiled and said: "The reason why Cinderella became a princess is because Cinderella had the potential to become a princess. The same goes for you. I just gave you the opportunity, and you seized it and used your potential.
Come out. This is mainly your own efforts."
Tina smiled and shook her head: "There is never a shortage of talented people in the world, but most of these people are unknown. Only a few people are lucky enough to get the opportunity, and I am one of them. So, I am really lucky. Thank you
,boss."
After Tina finished speaking emotionally, she hugged Chen Feng again. Of course Chen Feng couldn't refuse. Fortunately, this time Tina only hugged him for a while and then let go.
"Boss, Hawke, I'll treat you to dinner. I've already made a reservation at the Mexican restaurant. Let's go together."
When Old Hawke heard this, he immediately said happily: "Okay, no problem."
Chen Feng originally wanted to refuse, but after thinking about it, he seemed to have something to do, and he had rejected her several times before. This time with Old Hawke, he really couldn't refuse anymore, so he agreed.
This Mexican restaurant is not very far from the company, just a ten-minute drive away.
After booking a private room, the three of them sat down together. The waiters here were very good. Even when they recognized Tina, a sexy and popular female singer, they were quite calm and just smiled slightly to express that they were her fans.
, he didn’t say anything more, let alone harass her.
After the three of them finished ordering the dishes, Tina said with a smile: "Actually, I would patronize here from time to time in the past, but no waiter has ever recognized me as a regular customer here. Of course, this may be the case with me, who has been here for at most a month.
This place has something to do with it. In the past, I didn't have much money, so eating here was a very luxurious pleasure. I like the Caesar salad here very much. You can try it later."
Old Hawke smiled and said: "Your experience is the same as mine. Before I became somewhat successful, I also liked the food in an Italian restaurant very much, but I was also financially strapped at that time. I only went to that restaurant once every month or two at most.
.That was my happiest time to enjoy. But when I got rich in the future, I would often go to that restaurant to eat, but suddenly I felt that the food was not as delicious as before. This may be a psychological effect. I cherish what I can’t get, and I feel
That's the best, but if you can get it casually, it feels like it's very common and not worth cherishing. So now, I rarely go to that restaurant."
Tina said with emotion: "Thank you for the reminder. This restaurant has left me with very good memories in the past, and I don't want to come back again. So, in order to keep it fresh, I will try my best to stay there for a month or two in the future."
Come once. You can’t come often.”
Chen Feng smiled and said: "I'm not as pretentious as you. I think it tastes delicious. You may not believe that a year ago or six months ago, I was still poor and had the experience of fainting from hunger on the road. So.
, I take food very seriously. I never get tired of delicious food. As long as it’s really delicious, I don’t mind eating it a hundred times.”
Old Hawk laughed and said: "You're right. Maybe it's because I ate too much at once. I ate at the Italian restaurant for a month, and then I felt it wasn't very delicious. Maybe I
Eat too much."
Tina and Chen Feng also laughed.
The three of them chatted and laughed for a while, and the waiter quickly brought over their orders.
During the meal, Old Hawke answered a phone call, and then left in a hurry with regret. Chen Feng and Tina were the only two people left in the private room.
Chen Feng suddenly felt a little embarrassed. After getting along with each other for this period of time, Chen Feng felt to some extent that Tina had strange thoughts about him as his boss.
This is Meijian. These Meijian people are usually very direct when expressing their affection for the opposite sex. The same is true for Tina. Before, she might have known Chen Feng better because of the gap in status and her "strangeness" towards Chen Feng.
Feng has a girlfriend, so it’s hard to show it too obviously.
But as this period of time passed, Chen Feng spent some time with her in the recording studio every day, discussing the recording work of each song, singing methods, etc. Unconsciously, he became familiar with her. In addition,
Now that Tina is a quasi-little queen, her status in the music world is increasing day by day, and she is obviously much bolder.
The fact that I hugged him twice in the recording studio before was a clear proof.
"Boss, we also offer tequila here. This is the national drink of Mexico and it tastes very good. Let's try a bottle." Tina said with a smile.
"No need. I don't drink much." Chen Feng immediately refused.
Although Tina looks very sexy, this is their Western aesthetic. In the heart of Chen Feng, an Easterner, he still prefers girls with slender and well-proportioned figures like Miranda.
Tina continued: "I didn't like drinking much before. But now that I have become famous, I can't sleep well every time I go home and lie in bed. So I slowly started drinking."
Chen Feng frowned and said: "You are a singer. Drinking alcohol is not good for your throat. I personally suggest that you try not to drink if you can. If you really want to drink, just drink fruit wine and wine."
Tina nodded quickly and said: "All I drink is wine. Because many people say that wine helps sleep."
Chen Feng then said with satisfaction: "That's good. There is a saying. But this method doesn't work for many people. Just drink one drink at most before going to bed. If you drink more, it will be bad."
Tina said helplessly: "In the beginning, one drink was enough. But now, I basically have to drink more than half a bottle."
As the boss, Chen Feng had to be concerned: "Have you ever been to the hospital? Why do you suffer from insomnia? Are you too stressed?"
Tina nodded and said: "I went to see it. The doctor said I had a psychological problem, so I went to see a psychiatrist again. The doctor told me to face my heart and not avoid it. I did so, and it really got better."
Chen Feng frowned and asked, "What psychological problem?"
Tina is now the cash cow of their company, especially after deciding to hide Tiffany. Her importance to the company is even more undoubted. Chen Feng does not want her to suffer from any mental illness.
Tina stared at Chen Feng and said word by word: "I have fallen in love with you, boss."
Chen Feng was stunned on the spot. He knew that Tina was interested in him, but he didn't expect that she would confess to him. And it was at this time and on this occasion.
The personalities of these people from the United States and China were so straightforward, which caught Chen Feng a little off guard.
