"A film that can win an award?" Wei Junbo couldn't help but roll his eyes after hearing Lin Nan's words: "Is that what you can shoot if you want to?" ”

Because Lin Nan has basically shot pure commercial films since his debut, and he has also shown everyone his talent in commercial films, but it is difficult for a purely commercial film to win any awards, and the current situation is that not only the media questions Lin Nan's ability to win awards, but even Wei Junbo obviously does not think that it is easy for Lin Nan to win awards.

Lin Nan knew very well what Wei Junbo thought, but he didn't bother to argue with Wei Junbo, so he changed his words: "Junbo, how about we play big this time?" ”

Hearing Lin Nan say this, Wei Junbo was obviously interested, sat up straight and asked, "What's the big game?" ”

"How much liquidity does the company have now?" Lin Nan asked.

Wei Junbo was a little puzzled when he heard Lin Nan ask this, but he still frowned and replied, "About 400 million!" ”

"How much can be taken out without affecting the normal operation of the company?" Lin Nan continued to ask.

Wei Junbo glanced at Lin Nan deeply, he now probably understood what Lin Nan just said about "playing big", but now he didn't think he was the time for her to give her opinions, so he still replied: "The company doesn't have any projects now, and it's not a problem to come up with 200 million!" ”

After hearing Wei Junbo's answer, Lin Nan breathed a sigh of relief, 200 million words are definitely enough, although his next plan will definitely cost a lot of money, but it is estimated that it will cost less than 200 million yuan.

"What the hell are you trying to do?" Wei Junbo saw Lin Nan's relieved look, and he was even more puzzled in his heart, so he asked curiously.

After Lin Nan heard Wei Junbo's inquiry, he showed a smile with a little madness at Wei Junbo: "I want to gather those superstars together to make a movie!" ”

"Are you kidding me?" The corners of Wei Junbo's mouth twitched slightly after hearing Lin Nan's so-called big plan, and his face stiffened as he asked.

Lin Nan rolled his eyes: "No!" ”

"Then you must be crazy!" Wei Junbo directly defined Lin Nan's thoughts, then got up from the chair and walked to Lin Nan's side and said, "Let's not talk about how much it costs to gather those Celestial superstars together, I'll ask you." Do you know that those heavenly kings are constantly making appointments, and it's not easy to find a time to schedule them all! ”

Hearing Wei Junbo say this, Lin Nan also thought of this, it is indeed not easy to bring this group of heavenly kings together!

Lin Nan originally wanted to make the extremely classic "Infernal Affairs" as soon as his head was hot. But now after Wei Junbo's reminder, I realized that I really thought about this matter too simply.

Let's not say that he doesn't have any friendship with those kings now, just talking about the schedule is a headache, after all, with his current energy, those kings are unlikely to adjust the schedule specifically for him, and which of these kings who can be found to film is not a character with a head and a face, even if the kings really adjust the schedule for him, then Lin Nan is bound to offend many people.

Thinking of this, Lin Nan also knew that his plan could only be temporarily stillborn, at least in a short period of time, it would be difficult to realize, unless it really came to his hands and there was something that made several heavenly kings itch.

Wait a minute!

Lin Nan's eyes suddenly lit up. The thing that makes the kings itch seems to have one thing in their hands - that is, the ability to sell movies abroad.

The success of "Chainsaw" in the global market is the biggest difference between itself and other directors, although there is currently only one "Chainsaw" series, which may not be attractive enough for several kings, but this is easy to solve. Wouldn't it be okay to raise this allure yourself?

Moreover, I should also find a chance to get to know those heavenly kings.

Since the matter of "Infernal Affairs" has been put on hold for the time being, Lin Nan has once again focused on the original micro-film competition, and the literary website does not need him to worry about it for the time being, the receipt is still in progress, and after obtaining a certain number of manuscripts, the website can be officially launched.

In the last part of April. The number of people who submitted to the original micro-film contest was much smaller than before, because most of the contestants were concentrated in the period from mid-March to early April, and at the end of April, Lin Nan also selected twenty more potential contestants with several people from the think tank, and then as soon as April ended, the list of twenty people who passed the pre-selection was posted on the homepage of the original micro-film contest. Then immediately contacted these 20 people, and after signing the contract, they gave these 20 people start-up funds ranging from 100 to 500,000 yuan, and let them complete their own micro-film production.

The production time of the micro-film lasts for two months, and after two months, the contestants will call out their works, and then make a unified selection.

After the micro-film competition enters the second stage. Lin Nan did not sit idle, but quickly organized the crew to shoot the third part of "Chainsaw", such a profitable movie, if it weren't for the audience's consumption fatigue, Lin Nan really wanted to release one every month, and he would have made a fortune in that year.

During the filming of the third part of "Saw Horror", Lin Nan also listened to the opinions of Twentieth Century Fox and introduced several foreign actors in the film, according to Twentieth Century Fox, this will make European and American audiences less resistant to the movie, and the box office is likely to rise sharply.

Lin Nan thinks about it, after all, European and American fans have rarely seen movies with Oriental people for so many years, and suddenly seeing a movie with all Oriental faces in it, it is natural to feel a little uncomfortable.

Unlike the previous two films, Lin Nan, the third part of "Chainsaw", did not plan to direct, nor did he plan to shoot independently, but chose to cooperate with Twentieth Century Fox to shoot, and the director was also selected by Twentieth Century Fox, which is also a show of favor to this company by Lin Nan, after all, if you want to stand tall and go far in this world, you must have friends and partners, and you only want to make money by yourself, so the result is that you can't make money.

Lin Nan is not afraid that Twentieth Century Fox will deliberately send a garbage director to ruin the film, after all, the value that "Chainsaw" can bring to Twentieth Century Fox is not small, and Fox also attaches more importance to it.

After handing over the crew of "Chainsaw" to the newly sent director, Lin Nan was not idle, in fact, after the "Infernal Affairs" plan was put on hold, another plan immediately came to Lin Nan's mind, that is, "Journey to the West", which is no less classic than "Infernal Affairs" in another world.

And compared with "Infernal Affairs", the biggest advantage of "Journey to the West" for Lin Nan is that there is only one star among the superstars needed, and the other actors are easier to talk about.

But there are also shortcomings, that is, Lin Nan has no experience in the production of such movies so far, and the closest to "Journey to the West" in the drama movies he has filmed may be "Wulin Gaiden" - at least they are all ancient costumes.

The lack of experience caused Lin Nan a lot of trouble, but Lin Nan still felt that he had to talk to Xing Ye first, after all, his decision was the only variable that affected whether this movie could be filmed smoothly, as long as Zhou Xingchi's problem was solved, then other problems would not be a problem.

Now that it has been decided, Lin Nan also began to make preparations, he first explained the entire plot background of Journey to the West, including the selling points, and Jiang Lin and them explained it in detail, and then Jiang Lin and them improved the content of the script and highlighted the selling points.

After that, Lin Nan asked Wei Junbo to help him contact Zhou Xingchi, and after briefly talking to Zhou Xingchi on the phone, Zhou Xingchi was also more interested in Lin Nan's shooting plan, and soon, Lin Nan made an appointment with Zhou Xingchi to discuss in detail.

In this world, Zhou Xingchi is still a simple actor, occasionally making cameo appearances as a director, and did not set up a company like another world and finally betrayed his relatives, Lin Nan guessed that Zhou Xingchi's temper in this world should be much better than in that world.

After seeing Zhou Xingchi, Lin Nan's heart was also a little excited, after all, he grew up watching Zhou Xingchi's movies in his previous life, and suddenly saw his idol and said that it was false not to be excited, but Lin Nan quickly took a few deep breaths and suppressed the excitement in his heart, and he needed to maintain a calm mind during the negotiation with Zhou Xingchi.

After meeting, the two began to get to the point after a few polite words to each other, but Zhou Xingchi's lame Mandarin really made Lin Nan uncomfortable to hear, so he said directly to Zhou Xingchi: "Mr. Zhou, I see that you still speak Cantonese, I understand!" ”

"I didn't expect you to know Cantonese, it's rare!" Zhou Xingchi obviously knew what level his Mandarin was at, so after smiling, he directly changed to Cantonese.

Seeing Zhou Xingchi's surprised eyes, Lin Nan secretly said in his heart: This is all thanks to Hong Kong movies and Cantonese songs, after all, this is something that has accompanied him throughout his youth, although he is not very good at speaking now, but he can still understand it.

And Zhou Xingchi is the same, although Mandarin is difficult to speak, it sounds no problem, so the two of them began to communicate in Cantonese and Mandarin.

"Mr. Lin, I want to know what kind of movie you asked me to make this time?" At the beginning, Zhou Xingchi got into the main topic.

Lin Nan nodded, took out a document from his bag and handed it to Zhou Xingchi, which is a synopsis of the overall plot line of "Journey to the West", including Zhou Xingchi's scenes and the highlights of the film, which are clearly marked.
