Chapter 174: Release, Waiver of Copyright

Watching Lin Nan and the three of them walk towards the signature wall.

The host was still a little confused.

There are no less than six directors today, and the yin and yang are weird.

"I'm already considered convergent, I was going to say it directly: Even the Golden Lion and Golden Bear movies can't be shortlisted, why should we make a mistake?"

"That doesn't go wrong with that, right?" Huang Bo asked.

"What are you afraid of, Director Jia and Director Jiang just said similar things. Besides, this is the truth, and it is not a lie. ”

Lin Nan looked indifferent.

Anyway, he doesn't want the golden rooster anymore.

As he spoke, several people entered the award ceremony.

Although they are guests this time, Lin Nan and Ning Hao's position is also good, and the fifth row is by the aisle.

Liu Yifei was on the other side of the aisle, and Cheng Long was in the third row.

"Director Lin, long time no see."

Tang Wei smiled and said hello.

"Long time no see, I haven't congratulated you yet." Lin Nan was stunned for a moment and spoke.

The two first met in the crew of "Time and Space Cruise", because of Tian Yu.

It's inevitable that it's a little awkward to meet at this time, and a good couple will just disperse.

"Thank you." Tang Wei walked away.

"Suddenly becoming famous, for actors, especially actresses, the next time is the test, let alone her way of becoming famous." Ning Hao said.

Cheng Long waved to Lin Nan over there.

"Big brother, what's wrong?" Lin Nan walked over.

"I'm wondering if I want to move up a seat for you to sit down, haha. Don't think about it, just talk to you. ”

Liu Yifei on the side smiled and glanced at Lin Nan.

"No, the impact is not good, hehe......"

Saying that, Lin Nan handed Liu Yifei a candy and also gave Cheng Long one.

"The party is a little long, pad your stomach."

"Quite hearted, just like when I was younger." Cheng Long laughed and peeled off the candy and stuffed it into his mouth.

……

This year's Golden Rooster has too many Hong Kong Island stars and filmmakers, and it is rumored that this is all the credit of Carrie Lau.

She is the ambassador of the festival, which is her hometown.

After Zhang Liangying sang three songs in a row, the closing ceremony performance ended and entered the main topic.

Best screenplay, art, cinematography, music are not very appealing.

What everyone is most concerned about is the news that circulated on the Internet when the list of nominees was announced before.

The best supporting actor and supporting actress are not very famous, and they seem to be all directors in the organization who shoot dramas.

Surprisingly, the award of the actor was placed in front of the actress, and the order was changed?

Chen Kun is the favorite actor, and the Huabiao Award is the title of actor shared equally with Fu Dalong.

Today the two are competing again.

"Best Actor, Fu Dalong, "Tengu" ......"

When the Best Actress is awarded, the taste of the Golden Rooster is right.

"Best Actress, Carrie Lau, "Curiosity Kills the Cat"; Yan Bingyan, "The Teeth of Love......"

It's this operation, or that golden rooster.

The prophecy on the Internet came true, Liu Jialing really won the queen, and she guessed exactly the right points, the double yolk egg queen.

"That's why the order of the awards was changed?" Ning Hao asked in a low voice.

"We're both guests, and you ask me, where do I know." Lin Nan looked ahead and said expressionlessly.

The award presenters are Liang Chaowei and Li Lianjie, and Yan Bingyan looks out of place on stage.

Best Director, there are still two.

That's a bit of a joke.

It wasn't until the Best Picture award was awarded to "The Ballad of Yunshui" that people in the audience realized that tonight's award results seemed to coincide with the online predictions.

At the end of the award ceremony, Lin Nan and his party did not stay and went directly to the airport.

"I'm starting to look forward to tomorrow's news, hehe......"

…………

The next morning, Ning Hao called Lin Nan excitedly.

The Internet is full of mockery of the golden rooster.

"The awards are not tied, the 'hundred flowers' are not opened, the double yolk eggs are not called, and the 'golden rooster' is not called."

In the past, it was just ordinary people mocking, but this time there are a lot of filmmakers.

Lin Nan and Ning Hao's speeches on the red carpet yesterday, as well as the interviews of Jiang Wen, Jia Zhangke and others, are all hanging on the front page of the portal at this time.

The most headline is not these, but the Film Association and the Golden Rooster Organizing Committee are going to hold a media conference today.

Explain and clarify the problem of "double yolk eggs", as well as the matter of "after the film" that netizens said.

"This kind of thing, the more you explain, the more people don't believe it, because you are tired of it.

Odd-numbered judges, why can an even number of prizes always be awarded? ”

Lin Nan didn't care about how the Film Association explained it to the media.

He and Li Yang went to the movie channel to do the last promotion of "Blind Mountain".

On the last day of October, Ning Hao told Lin Nan that Professor Hou Keming ordered him two sentences, and the speech on the Golden Rooster red carpet was a little inappropriate.

Lin Nan still wondered why he didn't look for him, and finally asked Tian Xiangxiang to find out, and was pushed back by the latter.

……

The release date of "Lust and Caution" in China has been changed again and again.

In the end, it was changed to November 1, which was released on the same day as "Blind Mountain".

Although Lin Nan and Li Yang did their best to promote, the treatment of the two movies must be different.

When it was released on Hong Kong Island and Bay Island in October, "Lust and Caution" was the box office winner.

In other words, mainland audiences have been whetted and want to see the movie.

Lin Nan understands that "Blind Mountain" will not pose any threat to "Lust and Caution".

On the first day of November, "Blind Mountain" and "Lust and Caution" were released at the same time.

From the media reports, you can see the difference between the two films.

"Lust and Caution" has almost reached 100% attendance in several cinemas in the capital, which can be called terrifying.

And the attendance rate of "Blind Mountain" is very poor, because the audience knows from the beginning that this is a movie that may be very uncomfortable after watching it.

The next day, Lin Nan called China Film and asked about the box office on the first day.

"Director Lin, the box office on the first day was only 890,000, but the evaluation is very high......"

"Well, I see, thanks."

Lin Nan hung up the phone, this result is already very good, compared with the original time.

In my mind, the total box office of less than 100,000 is simply sad.

On the other hand, the media reported the box office of "Lust and Caution", which broke 10 million on the first day.

The evaluation of "Blind Mountain" on the Internet also came out: this is an indignant and angry movie, and it is also a movie that makes people feel powerless and desperate......

The evaluation of "Lust and Caution" is a little biased towards the actors, from acting skills to plots, from characters to thoughts.

"Lin Nan, this achievement, I cheated you." Li Yang smiled a little helplessly and said.

"Needless to say, this movie didn't think about making money."

In the following days, the box office of "Lust and Caution" remained at eight or nine million, while "Blind Mountain" dropped to three or four hundred thousand, or even lower.

Yu Dong called Lin Nan and said that the film schedule had really improved, but the attendance rate was too low.

The media is already reporting that this will be the first loss-making film produced by Lin Nan.

Liu Yifei went to watch "Blind Mountain", and when she came back, she was depressed and her eyes were a little swollen.

"I told you not to look at it, but you didn't listen." Lin Nan stroked Liu Yifei's eyes.

"If, I'm the Bai Xuemei who was sold......"

"There are no ifs."

Lin Nan said categorically.

Liu Yifei is like this, occasionally quite silly, but most of the time is emotional.

always wants to act in a literary film, like "Blind Mountain", she definitely has ideas.

……

Bona held a press conference for "Blind Mountain".

This is what Lin Nan requested.

The industry is very puzzled, although the box office is not good, but the theater chain has not said that it will be taken off the shelves, it has only been less than a week, what kind of press conference will be held?

"Blind Mountain" is no longer off the shelves, it makes no difference, on the fifth day, the daily box office dropped to less than 10,000 yuan, and the total box office was less than 2 million.

The word of mouth is really good, and that's enough.

The venue of the press conference is in the small hall of China Film.

Lin Nan invited all the famous media in the industry, and in addition to several official media, they were looking for Han Sanping to help.

In the morning, the small auditorium was already full of media reporters.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Lin Nan and Li Yang came to the stage.

"Director Lin, I don't know what the theme of today's conference is?"

"Although the box office is not good, this is indeed a good movie in the true sense of the word......"

……

The reporters were chattering and a little noisy.

"Be quiet."

Lin Nan held the microphone and said, and the field was instantly quiet.

"Today's press conference is indeed for the movie "Blind Mountain", don't worry, listen to me slowly."

"The first movie I made when I entered the industry was "Blind Well" directed by Li Yang, which was also a movie adapted from a real case, although it is a pity that it cannot be released in China, but I believe that there must be piracy, hehe......"

Lin Nan's words amused many reporters.

"In addition, I would like to thank Mr. Yu of Bona for his contribution to "Blind Mountain", so I also handed over the distribution rights of "Painted Skin" to Bona."

This is the first time that this matter has been announced to the outside world, and the reporters instantly felt that it was worth the trip.

"Last but not least, this is the core of today's press conference."

Lin Nan paused and looked at everyone present.

""Blind Mountain" is wholly owned by me, and director Li Yang is a director with a real sense of social responsibility. We discussed it, and after today's "Blind Mountain", we will completely draw it.

And, in order to liberate the abducted women and fight crime, I voluntarily gave up the copyright of this film.

Any audiovisual publisher or website is free to use. Aiming to let more people see this movie, thank you all for ......"

……

The news of "Blind Mountain" spread quickly.

This is the first time that a producer has voluntarily given up the copyright of a film.

Lin Nan and Li Yang's operation shook the eyes of many film and television companies in the industry.

"Linzi, you're awesome."

"Lin Dao Atmosphere."

……

Many acquaintances sent messages and called Lin Nan, admiring his operation.

Nortel's official website reposted the news.

There were only a few voices that said that Lin Nan and Li Yang were stopping the loss in time and grandstanding, but they were soon scolded silently.

"Twilight" is about to be released, and this film is the first theatrical film independently produced by Crystal Pictures.

How well the box office results will directly affect morale.

As the boss, Lin Nan had to fly over and stare at it to stabilize the morale of the army.

In addition, the special effects of "The Martian" and "Painted Skin" have to be seen, especially the latter, after all, the release time has been set.
