Chapter 112: Parents, Please, Coming Soon
No surprises, the next day's headlines were there.
It is rare for everyone to see Lin Nan say heavy things on a positive occasion, and this is the first time.
"Nortel's two directors are-for-tat, one belittles horror films, and the other satirizes the plagiarism of each other's films......"
"Director Lin Nan is suspected of standing in line...... documentary director"
……
The matter at the dinner that day spread out, and Lin Nan didn't care who spread it, so be it, what you say, admit it.
Jiang Wen is a big deal to join in the fun, and "The Sun Also Rises" is still filming, so he told the visiting reporter that he regretted that he was not at the scene at the time, otherwise he would have to drink two cups.
The lawsuit of "Ke Ke Xili" was heated up all of a sudden, and there were originally only a few media reports, but now more people are paying attention.
Lin Nan didn't expect that the news about Lu Chuan could go hand in hand with hot news such as "Super Girl" and "Good Boy".
A dog surnamed Song bluntly said that this was Lin Nan's hype for the upcoming "Time and Space Cruise".
Lin Nan only replied to the reporter: A dog is a dog, since he claims to be a dog in the entertainment industry, don't always mix people.
It can be regarded as revenge for Miss Xiao Liu.
It was the first time the media saw Lin Nan so rigid, and he was polite in interviews before, but this was the first time he scolded people without naming them in front of the microphone.
……
Miss Liu, who was far away from Sony's headquarters, made a special call to come back, and she was moved, why did she cry while talking......
"Tengu" held a screening at Nortel, and Lin Nan, who is a director at the school, was also invited.
Fu Dalong, an actor who went out from Nortel, a rare and powerful faction, played really well in "Tengu".
Originally, I was listening to the creators talk about their feelings about this play, but someone over there looked for Lin Nan, "Senior Brother Lin, the department called you over." ”
"It's still coming."
Lin Nan thought it was funny, is this the parents going to mediate?
At present, the pressure of public opinion is on Lu Chuan's side, and Lin Nan is the first celebrity in the circle to stand up and speak for the documentary director, and this person also thanked Lin Nan for his righteous words through the media.
Tian Xiangzhuang quite recognized Lin Nan's behavior, just on the facts, yes.
But the fight between the well-known directors of the two schools has a really bad impact on the school.
said that he was looking for it in the department, but isn't the head of the department his own teacher? Lin Nan muttered in his heart.
In the Tian-like office, Lin Nan's undergraduate supervisor Lao Jiang is also there.
After Lin Nan knocked on the door and came in, he closed it with his backhand.
"Sit down." Tian pointed to the side of the old ginger.
"You kid is really not worried." Old Jiang smiled and counted.
"Saying this, the surname Lu always thinks that he is more than a round older than me, so he can hold the shelf, and he has nothing to do to find to smoke."
Lin Nan said first, and the responsibility was clear.
"For both of you, the department has had a meeting."
"Not really, right?"
Lin Nan was a little unconvinced, this was not a big deal.
"Professor Jiang said hello over there, let's stop this matter, give the old man some face."
Tian Zhuangzhuang said suddenly, this tone is about to set the tone.
"Are you really looking for parents?"
Lin Nan said incredulously.
Now he really believes in the rumors in the rivers and lakes, Jiang Wen is mainly anti-customer, and Lu Chuan called late at night to complain!
Tian Xiangxiang glanced at his student, but the analogy was quite appropriate.
"After that, don't speak about this matter, as for plagiarism or not, the other two will deal with it themselves."
"Okay, listen to you."
Lin Nan said helplessly, this is the reality.
……
The box office of "Latent" is still growing, but it is a little different from the previous "Dead Silence", the North American box office growth is not as good as the latter, but the global box office is much better than the previous "Dead Silence".
The email sent by Lionsgate is similar to what foreign media reported, in the first week, "Latent" got nearly 40 million dollars around the world, according to the law of decreasing box office over time, this time it should not be a big problem to exceed 100 million.
The second round of publicity for "Time and Space Cruise" began, but unfortunately Zeng Li couldn't come.
"The Barber", which started in 02, experienced the untimely death of the crew, the restart of the role, and the death of the director, and it was not confirmed that it would be released until this month.
This is Zeng Li's first female protagonist movie, the male protagonist is Chen Kun, and Lin Nan let Zeng Li go there.
"Lizi took this movie two years ago, and it was the first time someone asked her to play the heroine of the movie......"
Chen Minghao recalled.
Lin Nan knows this, Zeng Li's film road is much more difficult than her female classmates.
Sitting in the rest area of the CCTV building, the big screen is the award video of the Hong Kong Island Film Awards, Zhou Xun won the actress, relying on "If Love", Jay Chou won the best new actor.
There were many actresses in the mainland who joined in the excitement in the past, Li Bingbing and Zhang Ziyi were all award guests.
"Director Lin, do you think our film can win an award?"
Tian Yu's question is not easy to answer, this is a science fiction film is a commercial film, and it is not easy to go to the film festival.
"Where to get it? Hundred flowers? Hehe. ”
Chen Minghao answered, and he couldn't help laughing.
Lin Nan was thinking in his heart, it is estimated that if he wants to win the award, he can only go to Baihua or Huabiao.
Inside the studio.
"Director Lin, what are the box office expectations for this movie?"
The host of the movie channel asked.
"I hope the domestic box office will reach 200 million." Lin Nan said the expectations in his heart.
After this number was said, the host had a smile on his face, and several leading actors were also a little excited.
The last movie that exceeded 200 million in China was "Hero" at the end of 02, and "Wuji" a few months ago fell to 180 million, which was also last year's box office champion.
"Director Lin is confident?"
"Ask the leading actors, hehe."
"Have faith!"
"We believe in Director Lin, haha."
……
Major theaters have hung up the release poster of "Time and Space Cruise", and the fourth film directed by Lin Nan will be officially released on May Day.
The movie went abroad for the first time, and Lionsgate did its best, and the film schedule can only be said to be ordinary.
In the words of the head of Lionsgate's distribution department, "Lin, this is the first time, so it can only go so far, and the next time, it will be different." ”
Lin Nan understood this truth, and he must have suffered some losses for the first time.
The news from Showbox is better, their theaters will be a little more preferential, and other theaters will be much more cautious.
Since Tian Xiangzhi greeted Lin Nan, the latter has not been interviewed by reporters, and the news on the Internet seems to have disappeared all of a sudden.
Sometimes I have to admit the butterfly effect, I remember that Lu Chuan's lawsuit will last for a long time, but after Lin Nan's intimidation, the first round of lawsuits announced that the matter was over.
The plaintiff retorted in court, citing a series of testimonies that were useful to Lu Chuan, and he was eager to change the identity of the plaintiff and defendant on the spot.
When this news was broken by a certain media, there was a sigh on the Internet.
"It's a pity that Director Lin Nan's righteousness has spoken ......"
"Bad luck."
"Director Lin Nan's script didn't dare to write like this, Lu Chuan came out directly to the director!"
"Money, money, money, good money, everything is easy to say......"
There were still many people who comforted Lin Nan, and he couldn't explain it, his first reaction was just to reply to Lu Chuan.
The publicity that should be done has been done, and Lin Nan is just waiting for the movie to be released.
On the other hand, spanning nearly a year, when "Golden Armor" was fully launched, Zhang Yimou got his letter of appointment as the chief director, and the national teacher was about to take up his post.
Shu Zhan came to Lin Nan with an invitation to the TV series, but Liu Yifei's mother and daughter were not there, so he had to ask him for ideas.
"Do you want to pick it up?"
Looking at Shu Zhan, Lin Nan asked.
Zhang Jizhong's "The Legend of Deer and Ding" was invited, and Shu Zhan has cooperated with him many times, this time the role is Princess Jianning.
"Director Zhang said that there are not many scenes, and he will not delay my school's affairs."
Understood, Shu Zhan still wants to take it.
"Then take it, as long as you don't do it like before, if you have anything to call me, I will also ask Huang Xiaoming to take care of your ......"
"Hmm."
Since the last lawsuit, Shu Zhan's attitude towards Lin Nan has changed a lot, when he laughs, he will call his name, but he will call his brother more often.
"New Shanghai Beach" is still in a hurry, but Huang Xiaoming has already signed the next play, I just hope that the crew here will not have problems and affect the schedule.
Lin Nan's request, he agreed to it, the great director's favor is not good, these are all precious connections.
"Brother Xiao Ming, who are you talking to on the phone and smiling so happily?"
Sun Li, who played Feng Chengcheng, asked with a smile, and Huang Haibo on the side also had a smiling face.
"Lin Nan. My next play was "The Legend of Deer and Ding" produced by Zhang, and he asked me to take care of his sister. ”
Huang Xiaoming didn't hide it, saying this kind of thing is also good for himself.
"Director Lin Nan? Does he have a sister? "Everyone was very curious, but they hadn't heard of it.
"It's Shu Zhan, she plays the role of Princess Jianning. They seem to have known each other from "Baolian Lantern", haven't they often seen the news of their people shopping and playing before? ”
Huang Xiaoming explained, speaking of which, Shu Zhan still plays his wife in the play.
The global box office of "Latent" rushed to nearly 70 million dollars at the end of the second week, and 90 million in the third week, and then began to plummet.
This box office result, according to Lin Nan's estimate, Wen Ziren's reply should not be far away.
The box office data on the other side of the ocean was transmitted back to China, and the public was once again shocked by the ultra-high profitability of horror films, and regretted the domestic policy.
Shangying called and persuaded Lin Nan not to think about taking the opportunity to promote the horror of "Time and Space Cruise".
"Be safe, don't promote this, science fiction is science fiction, no matter what you said before, don't mention it now......
The release is imminent, and there are definitely people with red eyes, and if they find something for you, they will be very passive. ”
"Understood, Ren Dong, I won't do this."
Lin Nan really has this idea, and takes advantage of the high topic of "Latent" to publicize it.
After listening to Ren Zhonglun's words at this time, he realized that he was a science fiction film.
When the script is reviewed and the screening permit is applied, the reports are all science fiction, if you hype up the horror tone, wouldn't it be a problem for the bureau? Can't find yourself comfortable?
