Chapter Twenty-Nine: The Year Is Coming to an End
"After resting for so long and preparing for months, I think it's time."
Ning Hao is very confident and confident.
"Then I'll let the finance give you the remaining half, and I'll hand over the rest to Senior Brother."
Lin Nan didn't delay, and immediately let the finance office.
Ning Hao left satisfied, he wanted to arrange the crew immediately and prepare to start work.
For "Crazy Stone", Lin Nan is full of confidence, and the producer, producer, and screenwriter are all Lin Nan's names.
When the filming is completed next year, he will also try his best to promote it, and will not let the movie be released quietly like the original time, relying on word-of-mouth to emerge in the second half.
When I returned to school, I heard that the enrollment plan for the 05 level had come out, and the whole school planned to enroll more than 680 people, 30 undergraduates in the acting department, 15 in higher vocational education, and 15 in the animation school.
Every year, there are a lot of people who plan to enroll, and there will always be a few more people who come in at the end.
Wait another two years, and the term will still expire, and we will have to find ways to increase it.
The registration for the art examination began on February 16, and Lin Nan seemed to be unable to escape from three sides, and he might not be able to escape from both sides.
Lin Nan was honored to be written into the enrollment brochure, ranking last as an outstanding student, and the previous ones are all glorious histories, and Zhang Yimou is impressively listed in the list of directors.
If you take the admissions brochure of the School of Drama, you will find that there are still more actors and actresses over there.
The vigorous development of the film and television industry is doomed, and it can be seen from this year's enrollment expansion that those who are prescient will always be insiders.
Many actors enter the industry first and then take the art academy, which is very advantageous, and they have resumes when they are interviewed, and if they have worked with big names and have masterpieces, or have become famous, then there is almost no big problem in admission.
Lin Nan was on the brochure and was laughed at by his classmates for a long time, but some classmates actually knew that he would participate in the three-sided review of the acting department, which is very strange, shouldn't this be kept secret?
On the 9th, "No Thieves in the World" was released, with a box office of 11 million on the first day, and the media published it early.
For this reason, Mr. Xiao Wang of Huayi was interviewed, and his words were the hardships of the crew's creation and the prospect of the box office.
Feng Xiaogang's appeal, coupled with Liu Tianwang's gimmick, no one will question whether this film can make money, only think about how much it will make.
On the first Sunday, the box office of 11 million indicates that he will inevitably break 100 million, and in a short time, maybe in just a week, there will be another person in the 100 million yuan director club.
As expected, Lin Nan's "Return to Youth" was pulled out for comparison, as if it could easily crush Lin Nan.
On the first day, it was more than one million more than Lin Nan at the beginning, but on Monday the next day, the box office of "No Thieves in the World" instantly dropped by 20% to 9 million.
At this time, "Kung Fu" also started nationwide publicity, and Huayi was under pressure.
The production cost of Lin Nan's "Return to Youth" is 20 million, and everyone can inquire about it, but it has not actually arrived, and the box office is more than 110 million, making a lot of money.
And the cost of "No Thieves in the World" is 30 million, and the profit pressure is much greater, it is impossible to have a large lineup and fanfare for so long, and it is not as much as "Return to Youth", which is not very slap in the face.
Feng Xiaogang was interviewed and talked about his guest appearance in "Kung Fu", but when he wanted to ask Zhou Xingchi to return the gift, he was refused.
The publicity worked well, but it didn't seem to help much at the box office.
Everyone has doubts about whether the box office of "No Thieves in the World" can surpass "Return to Youth", because according to the box office growth of the former, it is very close to the latter.
The difference between the production cost of 10 million is that the box office of "No Thieves in the World" is 10 million more than that of "Return to Youth", which can be regarded as a loss, not to mention that looking at it like this, it may not be able to have so much more box office in the end.
No one doubts that if you break 100 million, you will definitely be able to make money, but the grievances are absolute.
The publicity of "Kung Fu" is overwhelming, and it looks like it is about to be released, which is another heavy blow to "No Thieves in the World", and no one can ignore the existence of Zhou Xingchi.
Lin Nan stayed at school during this time, and it was the end of another semester, and the teacher no longer required his test scores.
The other students in the directing department are very serious, and some people are already preparing for the graduation play.
Planning the graduation drama a year and a half in advance made Lin Nan see what attitude is.
Many families with average family conditions will tell their children to study hard, and sometimes they will look down on those art students and sports students.
But the family that can really support the art and sports students to the end, the economic conditions must not be bad.
In addition to their dissertation, directing students are also required to direct a film, which can be a short film, which is equivalent to the graduation of other universities.
Several of them asked Lin Nan to help read the script, but Lin Nan did not refuse.
"No Thieves in the World" can climb to the threshold of 100 million, Huayi has opened up publicity for this, and the third director with a box office of 100 million yuan in the mainland was born.
is different from newcomers like Lin Nan, Feng Xiaogang is already an old face for many years, and this time he has taken this step, and he has established the identity of the director in a grand manner.
The promotion of Feng Xiaogang's status will also make Huayi even more powerful.
At this point, after the box office of "No Thieves in the World" soared for a while, the growth began to become slower and slower.
"Kung Fu" was released.
If you want to talk about forced qualifications, "Return to Youth" and "No Thieves in the World" are not as good as "Kung Fu".
The mainland, Hong Kong Island, Malaysia, and Singapore will be screened on the same day, and they have gone to Toronto and Tokyo film festivals in September and October, and the screening times in Southeast Asian countries have also been scheduled.
The mainland box office reached 10 million on the first day, and this was Thursday.
It has been fourteen days since the release of "No Thieves in the World", and the box office, which was already struggling to grow, was completely trampled on the ground by "Kung Fu" on this day.
"I guess it's no show." The theater chain has continuously increased the schedule of "Kung Fu", and "No Thieves in the World" has been frozen on 120 million.
A few days ago, it was the news of "No Thieves in the World", but in the past few days, it has been replaced by "Kung Fu", and the name of the king of comedy has exploded again.
Lin Nan no longer pays attention to the box office, "No Thieves in the World" has a box office of four million more than "Return to Youth", which is still released by the media, and Hua Yi should not be happy when he sees it.
Three times without loss, four times with a small profit, this is "No Thieves in the World".
I haven't contacted Li Yang for a long time, "Brother Li, are you still in Germany?" I have a film I want to take over, I invested in it myself, I didn't look for anyone else, okay, then please Brother Li. ”
If you want to go to the film festival to compete, you can sign up according to the normal process, but Li Yang has been working in the German film and television industry all the year round, and he has won a silver bear, so he definitely knows some people.
Lin Nan signed up and was recommended by herself, and the degree of attention must be different.
Li Yang didn't hesitate, so he agreed to help Lin Nan find someone, and said with a smile that he would show him the film.
Ning Hao has already taken the crew to the filming location, and the start-up is just a few days away.
The crew didn't have any big names, and the start-up did not attract media attention.
Lin Nan thought that he would wait until the filming was almost over, and then carry out publicity and momentum, his name is still quite attracting media attention.
Lu Chuan's "Ke Ke Xili" was a box office disappointment, but the film festival was proud.
At the Golden Horse earlier this month, "Ke Ke Xili" won the Best Film Award without any doubt, and Lu Chuan on the stage seemed to hold his breath and made a long list of comments.
Lin Nan remembers reading a sentence out of nowhere: The most honorable thing in Lu Chuan's life is that he filmed "Ke Ke Xili".
This circle is "in dire straits", there are not many people with three positive views, even fewer people who have always been upright, and there are countless hypocrites and true villains.
Xing Ye's unusual visit and promotion for "Kung Fu" really worked wonders, and the box office growth rate in the early stage was almost double that of "Return to Youth" and "No Thieves in the World".
At the beginning of the year, Lin Nan was in the crew of "Baolian Lantern", and often went to the crew of "Fairy Sword" next door, and at that time, the Tang people planned to add Lin Nan to the marketing at that time.
What is surprising is that Lin Nan has become a 100 million yuan director with "Return to Youth", and the Tang people are even happier.
Now that "Fairy Sword" is talking about the first round, the behind-the-scenes footage in the hands of the hand is beginning to be released, and Lin Nan is impressively listed, with a lot of clips.
I didn't know and thought he was playing Li Xiaoyao, Cai Yinong specially called to talk about it, for Zhao Linger's sake, he didn't care.
chatting with Liu Yifei at night, the filming intensity of "Condor" is very intense, and there are seven or eight out of ten scenes in the scenes of Xiaolongnu.
"I enjoyed the filming process, looking at myself on the screen of the machine, I was very satisfied and enjoyed." Liu Yifei said happily.
She was also very satisfied with Lin Nan's caring attitude, "I will probably finish in April next year, and then I will take a break for a while, and then I will go to your company to play, I haven't been there yet." ”
Looking at the message sent by Liu Yifei, Lin Nan replied: "Okay, but now it's time for you to rest, staying up late will make girls get older, although you may age slower." ”
"Huh."
seconds replied two words.
Lin Nan smiled and muttered in a low voice, "I don't just want to be a girlfriend......
When I first entered my freshman year, I saw her, and she was still a little one at that time, just like Bai Xiuzhu, cute and cute.
Lin Nan couldn't help but get closer. She had few friends in her childhood, and her mother protected her very well due to family reasons.
Slowly, Lin Nan got acquainted with her, and found that there was still some violent factor under her quiet appearance, she had practiced dancing and martial arts!
In this way, Lin Nan gradually abandoned his original intention, and he didn't know how much he could experience in this circle, because he seemed to have found that tree, as for that forest......
After chatting a few more words, Lin Nan ended it first, just wanting her to rest early.
04 is really going to pass, and there are only three days left.
In view of Lin Nan's current box office performance, many investors are contacting him, and those who have no contact information actually come directly to the company.
For those who find a company, most of them want to invest in films, but there are also those who want to buy shares.
If you want to praise people, you should leave a few contact information, and if you want to buy shares, you will directly refuse.
Those who can contact Lin Nan by phone are all industry insiders, and it is really not much for Lin Nan to take the initiative to contact a few people, but there are really a lot of people who get his phone number.
Ying Huang has come into contact with Jiang Wen, and Lin Nan has heard of it. But taking the initiative to contact Lin Nan made him not expect that Hong Kong Island movies were already in decline.
Especially after the fake drama was fought in September this year, mainland actors who had been pressed by Hong Kong and Taiwan artists for a long time began to have a voice of resistance, and the Hollywood Actors Guild called the victims, and for a time the scandal spread all over the world.
