You made me a superstar
Chapter 257 Retire!
Chapter 257 Retire!
March [-]nd.
There was a light rain outside the window.
Feng Kai stared blankly at the ceiling, staring at the lamp on the ceiling for a long time.
The lid on the antidepressant bottle on the table is opened and closed, and opened every few minutes...
But after all, I didn't eat any more.
He is emotionally confused.
The whole person is obviously very tired, every cell in the body is exhausted, but the spirit is extremely excited. In the first half of the night, he kept holding a laptop and watching the various praises of "Jinyiwei" from netizens. After the box office results came out in the second half of the night, That kind of excitement turned into worrying about gains and losses again, and he reminded himself over and over again that it was time to sleep, but when he closed his eyes, he thought of the ups and downs of "Jin Yiwei" these days, and his reason told him that he should take antidepressant drugs to block that. An unbalanced emotion, but somehow after getting the medicine, I put it back...
The box office of "Jinyiwei" actually exceeded expectations.
It took half a day, and it was not a big-name production, so I expected about 200 million or so.
He didn't even dare to think about the box office of 500 million before!
The total investment is only 700 million, and you won 500 million in half a day. What kind of bicycle do you want?
But when he saw Jiang Ge's 700 million, the complex emotions of loss came spontaneously.
The sensitive emotions of depression are like a vibrating kite string. Any disturbance can turn Feng Kai's mood into an earth-shaking change. Then, in the earth-shaking changes, he will gradually think in a worse and more extreme direction ...
Django!
It can be regarded as the leader of the younger generation of directors.
When Feng Kai just graduated, Jiang Ge had already made a name for himself with several big productions.
There are representative works that became famous earlier and joined the Directors Guild earlier. After a few films, the personal box office has already exceeded [-] million. Among the directors of the younger generation, there are really few who can do him.
At the moment when Feng Kai was the most swollen, what he wanted was not to surpass Jiang Ge, but to become a director who was not inferior to Jiang Ge.
"Mechanical Man" is undoubtedly another blockbuster work.
With the lineup of "Superman", the blessing of the Hollywood special effects team, and the escort of the five generations of Chinese directors, it is difficult for "Mechanical Man" to hit the street.
in a sense……
There is indeed a gap between "Jin Yiwei" and "Mechanical Man".
I'm already pretty good!
It's already great!
And it's only the first day of the premiere, so it's not necessarily known who will win or lose next time!
Time passed little by little.
Feng Kai heard that the rain outside the window had stopped, and a meter of sunlight penetrated the curtains and began to shine.
Tossing and turning all night made Feng Kai dizzy.
He turned his head and felt that meter of sunlight, and the gloomy mood finally began to brighten up.
He finally got up from the bed, went to the bathroom, finished washing, and then looked at himself in the mirror.
Under those tired dark circles, there was still a sense of loss.
His cell phone rang.
His assistant Zhang Meiling sent him the latest news from the Directors Association.
When he saw the latest news, his face changed slightly, and he was stunned for a moment when he was originally disappointed.
"Jiang Ge is the vice president?"
"Didn't you say Zhou Yang before?"
"Didn't you swear by Zhou Yang!"
"Why did you secretly choose in the middle of the night!"
"What does it mean!"
He panted heavily, his originally lost mood instantly turned into fury, and he in the mirror began to become ferocious.
Then, he got a call.
The call came from the Huaxia Directors Association. The content was that as a member of the Huaxia Directors Association, he must be present today, and then discuss the association's plan for the invasion of Hollywood blockbusters in the first half of 07.
After Feng Kai answered the phone, his expression was extremely gloomy.
It is said to be an arrangement, but who doesn't know that this is to meet Jiang Ge, the new leader?
....................................
Eight in the morning.
In the meeting room of the Huaxia Directors Association in the Yanjing Hotel, a group of young people followed the older generation of directors and took their seats one by one.
The bright sunshine shone in the entire huge conference room. Django was dressed very decently today, and he showed a bright smile on his face at this time, who usually does not show his emotions.
"Is Zhou Yang here?"
"not yet……"
"What about the rest?"
"Basically everyone else has come, including Feng Kai."
"it is good!"
The assistant followed Jiang Ge in a low voice, Jiang Ge nodded after listening, then glanced in Feng Kai's direction, and greeted Feng Kai with a smile on his face.
Feng Kai rarely attends meetings of the China Directors Association.
In the early years, these people did not invite him, and he was not qualified to participate at all. Later, after falling out with several people in that meeting, he was stepped on the ground, unable to even struggle.
This time, the Directors Association was extremely harmonious. Django shook hands with him with a smile on his face, and praised "Jin Yiwei" for its excellent filming. He even skillfully explained the plot of the entire film and some details of the filming. Obviously, Django had done his homework.
After Feng Kaipi dealt with Jiang Ge with a smirk, he found that other veteran directors who were wrong with him also came over. Even Cao Bangguo and the others looked at him with smiles, and said that some heroes were born as teenagers. If it wasn't for Feng Kai who was used to seeing too many ups and downs when he was at the bottom, he would even feel that he was recognized by everyone up.
Feng Kai looked around.
This time the meeting was very well attended, even Wang Shuai and Shen Changwei and some people who did not appear often came...
The meeting will start soon!
The meeting focused on introducing Jiang Ge as the vice president of the China Directors Association. After bursts of warm applause, Jiang Ge bowed to everyone, and took out the schedule with a radiant face, and began to sit down. The position next to the main seat reveals the arrangement above and a series of severe situations of imported blockbuster films this year.
Feng Kai was absent-minded the whole time, thinking about something all the time.
After Jiang Ge finished speaking, he looked at everyone with a smile on his face: "Today's protagonist was originally directed by Zhou Yang. He just came back from the United States and can show us the style of Oscar. I am very eager to communicate with Director Zhou. Exchange shooting experience, but unfortunately, maybe Director Zhou is too tired, the phone has been turned off..."
After Jiang Ge finished speaking, Feng Kai saw an empty seat not far away, which was also the only empty seat on the scene, with the word "Zhou Yang" written on it.
After staring at it for a while, he looked at Django who was talking in the main seat.
He felt sick, and then stopped looking at him.
but……
He didn't want to watch Jiang Ge, but Jiang Ge wanted to mention Feng Kai.
Jiang Ge mentioned some of Feng Kai's past films, among which "Brothers" and "Shocking Sea", two films independently directed by Feng Kai, were pulled out by Jiang Ge and praised fiercely.
Waves of applause erupted at the scene, and in the applause, except for Shen Changwei and Wang Shuai, Feng Kai felt that everyone's attitude towards him was completely different from before...
He didn't know what the hell they were going to do.
"Director Feng, I sincerely invite you to serve as a director of the China Film Association and contribute to the revitalization of China Film Association. What do you think?"
Feng Kai was stunned.
He couldn't believe it.
Django's expression is extremely sincere, without any pretense, and at the same time, his smile is very bright.
"The future situation is too severe, Director Feng, let the ups and downs of the past be wiped away! No matter what, everyone is a member of the China Film Association. I hope everyone can put aside their past suspicions and unite. , unanimously to the outside world! The era of Hollywood is coming to an end!"
The sudden praise made Feng Kai unbelievable.
He heard applause, very enthusiastic applause.
He froze for a long time, as if it was a dream.
Obviously, this is a great thing. After becoming a director, he can participate in the big and small matters of the China Film Association and fully express his opinions...
This is the dream of all Chinese young directors!
But for some reason, at this moment Feng Kai found that he didn't feel any joy, or even any excitement, not even the slightest fluctuation.
He didn't know what was wrong with him.
Everyone is waiting for his reply.
But he uncontrollably glanced at the empty place not far away, and he didn't know what was going on with him.
At this moment, a text message appeared on his cell phone.
He glanced down at the text message.
The text message was sent by Zhou Yang.
"Director Feng, where are you? Is it convenient to call?"
After he read the text message, his originally complicated emotions instantly turned into a burst of unspeakable joy. He hesitated for a moment, then glanced at Django.
"President Jiang, I'm going out to answer the phone."
"it is good!"
The meeting of the Huaxia Directors Association has been going on, this time the meeting was very emotional, and many young directors expressed their excitement and thanks.
Feng Kai walked away from the meeting room and went to the bathroom. He called Zhou Yang back.
"Director Feng, I don't know how to fill in the information of the China Young Directors Association...I don't understand a lot of technical terms, why don't you help me look?"
"Mr. Zhou, what does the Young Directors Association mean?"
"Oh, it's the arrangement above. It's about giving me some power. Let me set up a similar young directors' association on the basis of the Huaxia Directors' Association, which is at the same level as the Huaxia Directors' Association. In the future, it will be a little faster to apply for some benefits. Some……"
"what!"
........................
Half an hour later.
Feng Kai walked into the conference room again.
The once complicated emotions began to become a little high.
He seemed to be wearing an inexplicable brilliance, and his steps became extremely light.
"Director Feng, what do you think?"
"Director Jiang, I'm sorry, I'm not interested in the directors of the China Directors Association..."
"Oh, that's a pity..." Django was taken aback for a moment, and then showed a regretful smile.
"Director Jiang, President Zhou, President Feng, and seniors, colleagues, I hesitated and considered again and again, and finally made a difficult decision. I feel that my ability is limited, and I really feel ashamed to be in the Huaxia Directors Association again. Stay here, this is my application for resignation, I hope the leaders will approve it!" Feng Kai didn't feel any regrets, he looked around everyone, and finally fixed his eyes on the chairman's seat...
He looked at Feng Minrui, Chairman Feng.
Then...
Under everyone's eyes of astonishment and disbelief, an application for withdrawal was handed out.
