Chapter 62: Jing Tian
"This month, Sissi is holding a birthday party, and you all have to come over then."
Mother Liu said to Lin Nan and Zhu Yawen with a smile.
"Auntie, don't worry, we'll be there."
"That's good, you talk, I'll go in first, and advocate drinking less ice orange juice."
Shu Zhan has a very good relationship with Liu's mother, just like his other daughter.
"Got it, Auntie."
Shu Zhan replied, usually still pouting on the straw.
"You girl."
Mother Liu shook her head with a smile and entered the villa.
"If you want me to say, you just call your godmother." Zhu Yawen said.
"Good idea." Liu Yifei agreed.
"Auntie is very good, if you call your godmother, you really have to let Sissi be my sister, I won't do it."
Shu Zhan shook his head and grinned.
"You're pretty good at it." Liu Yifei quipped.
"That's not it."
……
The decline of "Seven Swords" is a little unstoppable.
Blockbusters with huge investments, judging from the current box office situation, let alone making profits, it is difficult to recover costs.
Xu Ke was the best director of the Golden Horse a long time ago, and the cast of "Seven Swords" this time is even stronger.
Before the release, when it was promoted, he emphasized that he had worked hard to polish the script for several years, and now it's okay, the plot is the biggest failure, and he can't come back.
The crew stepped up to make up for a promotion, and the big names came out together, with the advantage of the lineup, the media gave a lot of face, and the report was a lot, but the effect was not too optimistic.
Film critics and audiences are once again on opposite sides, the former praises the superb acting, gorgeous pictures, and careful shooting, but the audience is more likely to say that they don't understand it, and only remember that there are many stars.
The box office can't be saved.
"Hidden in the Dust" was divided, and after China Film deducted the publicity and distribution fees proportionally, it was equivalent to half of the points with Lin Nan's side.
From the beginning, I didn't think that this film would have much box office, but fortunately, both of them were profitable.
Lionsgate's share of "Dead Silence" is being settled, and it will be connected with Lin Nan in accordance with the contract, and the future re-screenings, discs, etc. will continue to make profits, and they will also be cumulatively shared.
Since Hua Yi admitted that Wang Jinghua left, the industry has been very concerned about the latter's whereabouts, especially since there are dozens of mature artists, actors and stars behind her.
Whoever can recruit Wang Jinghua means lying down to win, because the most important link of smashing resources and cultivating artists is saved, and this is a team that can directly make money.
The news gradually became clear, and the media took photos of Wang Jinghua and Orange Sky meeting at the top of the city.
As soon as the news came into the newspaper, the news also came out from there.
"Orange Sky welcomes Jinghua Wang's team to join us, and we respect Ms. Wang's comments on team management and accept some of her plans that could not be implemented before.
The company will jointly establish an economic company with Ms. Wang, which is controlled and independently managed by Ms. Wang Jinghua, and we will do our best to help make the new company the largest and most professional performing arts agency in China......
This announcement directly poked Huayi's lungs.
Wang Jinghua was more direct to the media announcement, "Thanks to Orange Sky for its selfless trust in me, the new company has been established, the office address is selected in SOHO Modern City, and we also welcome past partners, major sponsors, and film and television companies to come to discuss cooperation ......."
I don't know how the two Huayi brothers reacted when they saw it, anyway, Lin Nan was amazed at the efficiency of this work, if Wang Jinghua and Orange Tian didn't discuss it before, he didn't believe it.
Subsequently, all the artists who left with Wang Jinghua followed suit, and the business negotiation address also fell on the new company address.
No wonder they all say that Huayi has been hollowed out, isn't this just eighty percent, the newly established brokerage company directly jumped to the top three in China, and its artists are at least third-tier.
An invitation letter was sent to Lin Nan's company, signed by Shibi Culture and Orange Sky, and the former was the name of Wang Jinghua's new company.
The front foot has just been announced
The company was established, and a celebration reception was held on the back foot, which was actually a business move, and I heard that there were many insiders who were invited.
Lin Nan still decided not to go, the reason is best to find.
The main reason is that he doesn't want to have anything to do with Orange Sky, and he has just made a fortune of Huayi, which can be regarded as a partner, so he has to take care of it somewhat.
……
Listening to Zhu Yawen's meaning, although there were many people who went to the cocktail party, there were few big names, and many directors, producers, and film and television companies invited did not arrive, or those who went were all deputies, and Huayi's influence should not be underestimated.
This loud drinking party was not a success, but it was still rendered in the media, and it was obviously spent money.
A few months ago, the Modu International Film Festival invited Lin Nan, he found a reason to refuse, Mr. Ren still had a lot of opinions, and not long after that, he received an invitation from Huabiao, in order to take care of the face of the Modu Film Festival, Lin Nan also refused.
At the end of this month, Huabiao presented the awards, and at the Capital Exhibition Hall, Lin Nan also took a special look at the list of nominees.
Good guys, worthy of an encouraging film festival, for one outstanding feature film award alone, seventeen films were nominated.
Depending on the situation, the rhythm of the award is given, because its purpose is to encourage nature, and more yellow eggs are the norm.
Ning Hao sighed a little, because the Magic Capital Film Festival injured him, and when Lin Nan asked him again if he wanted to go to Huabiao, he refused without thinking about it, which would be dumbfounded, Huabiao is ready to wholesale trophies, although the gold content is not high, but it is also an official award.
When Lin Nan arrived at the bad monkey, Ning Hao still had a bitter face, and Xing Aina laughed on the side and couldn't look away.
"Why are you here?"
"Come and see, is it a good watch?" Lin Nan joked.
"As for the serious film festival awards, I haven't won them yet, they were all short film awards before. With the results of "Stone", I have a personal award for what I go."
Ning Hao said angrily, and thought that it seemed that he had refused, which made him even more uncomfortable.
"Sit down, I'll get you some fruit." Xing Aina turned to leave.
"Thank you, sister."
"You're welcome, isn't it?"
Lin Nan leaned back in the chair very casually, "Last time I came, I saw that you were working on the MV plan, why haven't you decided yet?"
"The lyrics and songs have been revised over there, and I will definitely make some adjustments here, but the framework is the same, and I will start work here when the songs are recorded first."
Speaking of work, Ning Hao instantly had energy.
Xing Ai brought a fruit platter, and several people chatted while eating.
When it comes to this year's film festival, we have to say that the timing of the Golden Horse and the Golden Rooster is that the award ceremonies are next to each other. ….
Originally, the meeting had been decided, and after this year, the golden rooster would be changed to biennial, and the flowers would be staggered.
Sanya is the host of this year's Golden Rooster, a tourist attraction, and has been preparing to hold a special event to drive a wave of economy, but the Golden Horse over there directly threw out the holding time, which started earlier than the Golden Rooster and ended later than the Golden Rooster.
In terms of influence, the golden rooster at this stage is far inferior to the golden horse.
The invitation lists sent out by the two film festivals coincide to a large extent, and they can only go to one place in terms of time, and it is very embarrassing to decide how to choose.
Lin Nan agreed to go to the Golden Rooster, and by the way, he also helped Ning Hao decide together, and the latter could participate in a "Stone", so Lin Nan could make this decision.
"Hey, I just hope there will be a good outcome." Ning Hao said.
The reason why Lin Nan chose the Golden Rooster is to a large extent because he wants to pick up the leaks, everyone runs to the Golden Horse, and the chance of winning the award in "Hidden in the Dust" is greater.
There are many companies looking for Ning Hao to cooperate, and when Lin Nan stays for this time, there are several invitation calls, appointments, meals, and meetings, and Lin Nan hears that there are ponies galloping.
"You have more business than I do." Lin Nan quipped.
"My business is still more than Zhang Yimou, the volume is different, can it be compared? You're going to make a big one." Ning Hao replied.
"That's it, Ning Hao said yes
The director of "Stone" is not a part-time job for you."
Xing Ainaf sang with the woman and said with a smile.
Lin Nan had to clench his fists and say for mercy.
There was movement outside, and the people from Ning Hao's studio ran over, "Director Ning, that sister, Mr. Lu is here, in the reception room."
Ning Hao reacted and picked up a few manuscripts on the table.
"I thought I would come later, Lin Nan, you sit down first, I'll go for a while."
With that, he left.
"Sister, who is this?"
Lin Nan asked.
"Just look for the boss of Ning Hao to shoot the MV, I guess that little girl is also here, quite a polite girl."
Lin Nan didn't take it to heart, Xing Aina talked about "Seven Swords", she is a professional screenwriter, and Lin Nan's opinion is almost the same, Xu Ke's script was changed too badly, which is a serious mistake.
After a while, Ning Hao came over alone, looking at Lin Nan a little embarrassed.
"What's the matter, I'm a little empty with your expression."
Lin Nan was a little hairy by Ning Hao.
"It's the boss who said last time that I introduced you to him, I didn't hear that you were here with me, so I wanted to get to know him, and I came to ask for your opinion."
"If you have something to say, I thought it was something terrible." Lin Nan gasped.
"That's all he has."
Xing Aina also complained about Ning Hao.
Lin Nan didn't expect to meet this Mr. Lu, a starry boss in this scene.
"Director Lin, it's better to meet than to be famous, it's a pleasure to meet you, it's really the youngest big director."
"Hello, Mr. Lu."
Lin Nan shook the other party's hand.
"Tian Tian, this is Director Lin Nan, didn't you say you wanted to get to know each other, why was you stunned when you saw someone."
Lu Zheng said to the girl next to him with a smile.
"Ah, Director Lin, hello, I'm Jing Tian, I like your movies very much."
The girl seemed to wake up from her distraction, and spoke quickly, and her cheeks could be seen to be slightly red.
Lin Nan looked sideways, and the girl in front of her had bright and upright facial features, a high nose bridge, big eyes, fair skin, and an eccentric melon seed face.
Lin Nan looked at the girl's outstretched hand, and let go of it with a gentle touch, "Hello."
I hadn't paid attention to who Ning Hao was shooting the MV for, but now Lin Nan finally knew who was going to release the EP, which was Jing Tian in front of him.
To say that Jing Tian is really very similar to Liu Yifei, because of family reasons, his debut is supported by manpower, similar starts, similar gossip, and the same enthusiasm and seriousness as his work.
Originally, I was looking for Ning Hao, but in the end, I talked to Lin Nan a lot.
Lu Zheng intentionally or unintentionally said that Jing Tian loved the profession of an actor very much, and gave her the opportunity to talk to Lin Nan.
The girl was really trying to find a topic, but her cramped appearance made Lin Nan laugh.
He found that Jing Tian's personality and speech were very similar to Liu Yifei, straight and straight.
