Chapter 206: Pressure from the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television
After the negotiation with those game companies collapsed, Lin Nan didn't care, because he knew that if those companies were not stupid, they would definitely come back after the official release of "Resident Evil".
At the end of the post-production of Resident Evil, Twentieth Century Fox finally started promoting Resident Evil, and there were only two things they needed to do, the first was to release the news at the top of the "Zombie House".
The world's first post-apocalyptic zombie movie, "Resident Evil", will be released soon!
The second is to update this message to the new edition of the "Apocalyptic Survival Manual" at the same time, and soon, almost everyone who is obsessed with zombies knows this message.
Judging from the promotional posters, the zombies in this movie are much more exquisite than what they have seen before, and what is even more exciting is that there is a very beautiful woman in this group of zombies - short hair, cold and glamorous, with guns in both hands, full of wild temptation!
Such a glamorous heroine combined with those disgusting and terrifying zombies behind her gives people the feeling of a living Beauty and the Beast, and for men, this is the best poison, full of temptation.
Coupled with the fact that this is the first post-apocalyptic zombie movie, fans are even more sought after, and they have asked Twentieth Century Fox when he will see this movie.
Twentieth Century Fox must still be incomprehensible, because Lin Nan's idea is to release it globally, at least let Huaxia and Europe and the United States be released simultaneously, and Europe and the United States are okay to say. As for the twentieth Century Fox in Huaxia, it is estimated that it will not come, and as for Lin Nan, it is even more impossible to estimate, and he is not even sure whether it can be released or not.
After the post-production of "Resident Evil" was finally completed, Lin Nan handed over all the things in Europe and the United States to Twentieth Century Fox, and he returned to China with the movie, and he now needs to go to China to fight for the release of "Resident Evil".
Lin Nan did not rashly submit the film to the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television for review, but first found Lei Mu, the president of Chuangu Entertainment, and the probability of success in this matter through Chuangu Entertainment is slightly higher, after all, Chuangu Entertainment is also half a state-owned enterprise. And as one of the five giants in the Chinese film and television industry, I can also say a few words on the side of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television.
After Lin Nan and Remu talked about "Resident Evil". Lei Mu also frowned, knocked on the table with a few fingers and said with a wry smile: "You really have a problem for me!" ”
"It's difficult?" Even though he had already guessed, but now hearing Lei Mu say this, Lin Nan still had some disappointment in his heart.
"Hmm!" Remu nodded. continued: "The State Administration of Radio, Film and Television has been relatively strict in censoring this horror genre of films. You this movie. In terms of the level of gore, "Chainsaw" is not much more than your step, and more importantly, in this apocalypse, a monster caused by scientific research has taken over the world...... It's just too hard! ”
Seeing Lin Nan's complexion, his face was a little gloomy. Lei Mu also seemed to be a little unbearable, so he said to Lin Nan: "Actually, it's not impossible, as long as you can change the ending of your movie, you can become a zombie and be controlled in the 'hive', and you haven't escaped, and there is no crisis in the human world, in this case, I will help you move again, and the chance of passing the review is much greater!" ”
After Lei Mu finished speaking, Lin Nan frowned slightly, and changed the ending according to Lei Mu's words? It is impossible for Lin Nan to do this, because it not only seriously affects the quality of the movie, but also affects the plot links of the following movies, causing huge losses.
And more importantly, this will ruin the "Resident Evil" series, and it stands to reason that Lin Nan will not do this.
Seeing Lin Nan frowning and shaking his head, Lei Mu also understood Lin Nan, he understood how difficult it is to let a director change his work, and he also understood that if it was really changed like this, this movie would lose a lot of points, and Lin Nan was unwilling to change it, and he couldn't say anything, so he could only comfort: "Actually, it's not a big deal if it can't be released in China, just like your "Saw Horror" series, although it can't be released in China, But it has been quite successful on the world stage! ”
Lei Mu's comfort obviously did not achieve any effect, Lin Nan still frowned and shook his head, in Lin Nan's heart, "Resident Evil" and "Chainsaw" are different, "Chainsaw" is just a movie that can make money, and it is a key to help him open the door to the European and American film market.
But "Resident Evil" can bring more than just benefits to Lin Nan, what Lin Nan values most is the boom of post-apocalyptic zombie movies that "Resident Evil" will set off around the world, if the producers of Huaxia can catch up with this craze, then this will become an excellent opportunity for Huaxia films to be in line with international standards, and if the producers of Huaxia do not keep up, then after losing this opportunity, Lin Nan does not know if he can help them create such an opportunity.
And Lin Nan now wants to let "Resident Evil" be released in China, not for the sake of the movie's domestic box office, it is not worth mentioning to him, he wants the movie to be released in China just to prove that even if this kind of movie can't go abroad, it will never lose money just if it is released in China, he understands that the worries of that group of investors must be solved, and that group of people will have the possibility to invest money in the movie!
It's just that Lin Nan's thoughts can't be told to anyone, he can only do it silently, no matter whether he succeeds in the end or not, as long as he tries his best, he can be regarded as worthy of the country.
"Mr. Lei, I won't change the movie, but I still hope that you can help me and send this movie to the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, where you can help me do something, no matter how much it costs, as long as the movie can pass the review!" Lin Nan looked at Lei Mu with burning eyes, and said in a low voice, his mood was not high.
Lei Mu also sighed when he saw Lin Nan like this, although he couldn't understand why Lin Nan was so persistent about whether the movie could be released in China this time, you must know that after the last time "Chainsaw" was beaten back by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television in China, Lin Nan decided that the movie would not be released in China without saying a word, how free and easy it was at that time, why can't you watch it so much now?
No matter how much Lei Mu thought about it, he would never have thought of the real reason why Lin Nan did this, but he still nodded and agreed to Lin Nan: "Okay, I'll help you move out of it, but I can't guarantee whether it will succeed!" ”
"I know, I'm happy that Ray can always help me!" The corners of Lin Nan's mouth forced a smile, and then left directly.
Lei Mu saw that Lin Nan's figure when he left was also slightly sad for him, and couldn't help but sigh.
At night, in a barbecue shop on the street of Xijing City, Lin Nan and Zhou Ping sat opposite each other, watching Zhou Ping eating barbecue and drinking wine, but he didn't know what he was thinking.
After eating and drinking a few sips, Zhou Ping looked at Lin Nan's state and seemed a little wrong, so he asked, "Why is this mental state today?" Something on your mind? ”
"Huh?" Awakened from a daze by Zhou Ping's voice, Lin Nan shook his head, picked up the wine glass on the table and was about to take a sip of wine, but when he put it to his mouth, he sighed again, and then put the wine glass on the table without saying a word.
Zhou Ping was also slightly stunned when he saw Lin Nan like this, it seemed that something unhappy had really happened to his brother, so he frowned and thought for a while and then suddenly asked, "You broke up with Zhan Xiaonan?" ”
After asking, before Lin Nan returned, Zhou Ping slapped his palm and continued: "It must be the case, I said why did you kid suddenly chase me from Haidu to Xijing to pull me to drink, it's okay, I don't have a daughter-in-law and a brother, isn't it ......"
"If you want to die, tell me directly, I will satisfy you, you don't have to go around the bend so tactfully!" The corners of Lin Nan's mouth twitched, and then he glared back at Zhou Ping's next words back into his stomach.
Zhou Ping laughed a few times, of course he knew that it was impossible for Lin Nan to have a problem with Zhan Xiaonan, and he deliberately said that just now to ease the atmosphere, and only after the atmosphere eased did he become serious, and asked Lin Nan, "What's going on?" Let Boss Lin become this expression? ”
Lin Nan glanced at Zhou Ping obliquely, and then said, "Career setback!" ”
"Damn, won't you?" Zhou Ping almost stared out his eyes when he heard Lin Nan say this, because the answer Lin Nan said was too in his opinion, almost everyone knew that Lin Nan's career was smooth sailing along the way, and there were almost no twists and turns, and now Lin Nan actually told himself that his career was frustrated, how could Zhou Ping believe it, so he could only say with a wry smile: "Big brother, don't tease me, if your career is frustrated, then the five giants in the Chinese film industry should all go bankrupt!" ”
Seeing that Zhou Ping didn't believe what he said, Lin Nan could only shake his head helplessly and explained: "The movie I'm working on now is estimated to have no way to be released in China!" ”
"What's that, anyway, you've already earned enough abroad, so why bother with it at home?" Zhou Ping shrugged indifferently, and then asked: "I remember that when your "Chainsaw" was beaten down by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, you didn't lose it like this, why can't you look at it now?" ”
"It's not a matter of seeing it or not!" Lin Nan shook his head and sighed.
Zhou Ping asked: "What's the problem?" ”
"Let me tell you this, "Resident Evil", that is, my movie, once it is released worldwide, it will definitely open up a new film genre, and this genre will be hot for a long time!" (To be continued......)
