Last year, Ms. Liu rejected Sony's offer to study abroad.

In the past two days, she discussed with Lin Nan and Liu Xiaoli and began to go to Nortel to listen to classes.

The school is very welcoming.

"I'm free to go to the lectures, and I don't go back to school, so I need to be so formal?"

Liu Yifei smiled proudly.

"You are also a signboard of the school, but you can't focus on it?"

"Then when will you come back this time?"

Thinking of the right thing, Liu Yifei suddenly asked Lin Nan.

"I don't know, I may wait until the special effects of "Painted Skin" end."

"Well, okay then, remember to call me."

"Okay."

Lin Nan drove away from Nortel and drove towards the airport.

Liu Yifei walked alone and walked to graduate school.

"Mimi, that's Liu Yifei? It's really beautiful......

"It's cute!"

"It's rare for me to see a woman......"

Several junior girls were arguing, only Yang Mi stared at the figure in the distance, indifferent.

"It's just lucky, if you change me, I can do it too."

"Mimi, what did you say?"

"Didn't say anything, aren't you clamoring to go to the audition, hurry up."

…………

When Lin Nan was on the plane, he heard the news that Orange Sky had invested in Golden Harvest.

The shareholder structure of the latter is complex, including Li Bancheng.

This is a huge ship that is dying, and with the recession of the Hong Kong Island film market, it is now all hanging on to the foundation of the past.

It is estimated that Orange Sky has also been in contact with Jiahe for a long time, and Tang Yan and others can see it in the Hong Kong circle.

Tom was already waiting at the Los Angeles airport.

"Lin, I heard that the movie you invested in lost money?"

"Some movies, even if you know that he will lose money, still need someone to make them."

Lin Nan replied nonchalantly.

Tom started the car and got on the road.

Lin Nan saw a huge billboard on the side of the road, on which was a promotional advertisement for "Spy Shadow 3", and Matt Damon looked very gentlemanly.

"The movie hasn't been painted yet?"

"It's coming soon, it's already over $200 million at the box office in North America, and it's going to be celebrating it soon.

Looks like it's going to be released in your country in a few days? ”

Lin Nan nodded, when he set off, "Spy Shadow 3" was about to be released in China.

All the way back to Crystal Pictures.

Tom moved in quickly, "Lin, come and see, I've managed the company in an orderly manner." ”

Tom suddenly spoke Chinese, which attracted the attention of many employees.

I saw Lin Nan walking in.

The eleven people sent from China were a little excited in an instant.

They have known a lot of things during this time, and the most shocking thing is the fact that the owner of this company is Lin Nan.

However, these are also in the confidentiality agreement, and they cannot be passed on indiscriminately.

Soon all the employees withdrew their gaze and continued with the work at hand.

"Are you still adapting?" Lin Nan took the initiative to ask.

"It's okay, we're trying to learn, it's just a little bit slow. I feel that the teaching in domestic schools is too outdated......"

Someone got up and replied.

"Take your time, you're the first to take the lead."

Lin Nan said a word of encouragement, and went to the office that the latter had prepared for him with Tom.

"Lionsgate has done everything it can do, and "Twilight" has put a lot of posters and short videos, so let's see the results of the release now.

The people in the crew all hope to shoot a second episode. ”

"I'll talk about this when I see the data for the first weekend."

Lin Nan began to check the progress of the special effects of the two movies.

The special effects shots of "Painted Skin" are much less.

The final part has been completed and is expected to be completed within a month.

There are too many parts to render in "The Martian", and some of them are relatively long continuous shots.

From the beginning of last year to the present, it has been done for a whole year, and about three-quarters of the time it has been completed.

Integrating the progress of the new line and Crystal Pictures, it is absolutely no problem to complete it in the first half of next year.

The next day, Wen Tsairen's call came.

"'Twilight' is going to start soon, and I knew you'd be coming."

"So sure?" Lin Nan asked rhetorically.

"Haha, you underestimate yourself, you are also a famous oriental director in Hollywood, two silver bear trophies. It was the paparazzi who photographed you. ”

In this way, Lin Nan figured it out.

"Isn't "Latent 2" busy? You still have some free time to chat with me here? ”

Lin Nan made a joke.

"Lin, maybe you're right."

After a long time, Wen Ziren said slowly. This time the tone was much lower than just now.

"What did I say?"

"If you want to make "Insidious 2" a big production with a cost of 20 million dollars, you have to fill it with a plot.

But the original story is already very reasonable, and expanding it will only have the opposite effect......"

Lin Nan clearly understood, Wen Ziren, who was accustomed to small-budget production, was a little clueless in the face of a horror film with a cost of 20 million, and his previous cognition and experience seemed out of place.

"I can't help you with this, good luck."

At this moment, Lin Nan realized that Wen Ziren's real intention in calling was to ask him, a screenwriter, for help and advice.

What advice can he give? Just kidding, it's a dime gone.

Seeing that he really couldn't get any advice and help, Wen Ziren gave up, "Then forget it, I'll continue to shoot according to the expanded script now......"

Two days passed in the blink of an eye.

"Twilight" was officially released.

And Lin Nan received an invitation to the party.

"Shutter Island?"

"I heard that it was a release reception for the film project, so you will know when you go."

"Okay, I'll go around."

The last "Infernal Affairs" was Lao Martin and Xiao Lizi, and this movie is these two again, and it seems that there is a tacit understanding in cooperation.

Hollywood sounds like a big place, but it's really not a big place.

From Crystal Pictures, in less than half an hour, it arrived.

The combination of Lin Nan and Tom is very eye-catching, one is a Chinese Silver Bear director, and the other is purely body type.

"Lin, here."

Turning his head to look, Lin Nan realized that it was Paul of Lionsgate.

"Long time no see, James didn't come?"

"He's still on the crew, and he can't leave."

As he spoke, he saw the protagonists of today's cocktail party come out.

Martin Scorsese, as well as Xiao Lizi and others, and there are also people from Paramount, the producer.

This film is scheduled to be filmed early next year.

At the beginning of the cocktail party, many people came to say hello to Lin Nan, and the market response of "Buried Alive" was very good, and Ryan Reynolds was better than before.

This made many second- and third-tier actors pay attention to Lin Nan, the silver bear director.

chatting with Paul in the corner, Lin Nan also saw a lot of familiar faces.

Kate Winslet, who worked together again after a decade.

Matt Damon, a box office hit, and Christopher Nolan, the director of "Batman", ......

From time to time, Paul whispered some gossip about the guests.

"Nolan ......"

"Lin, what are you talking about?"

"Ah, didn't say anything. By the way, is the filming of "Batman: The Dark Knight" finished? ”

"It seems to be in the end, it should be finished, otherwise Nolan would not have come to the reception."

"Well, okay. Paul, I'll go over there first. ”

"A drinking party is supposed to be a place to socialize, so go ahead."

Lin Nan glanced around and saw Tom accosting a young actress in the distance, not to mention, this guy has a set, and the other side of the amuse has been laughing.

Through the crowd, Lin Nan found his target.

"Director Christopher, hello, I'm Lin Nan."

This is a world-famous commercial film director, Lin Nan has to be solemn.

"Hello, I know you, that "Buried Alive" is very good. Excuse me, what's the matter? ”

"I'm a big fan of the movie "Deadly Magic", can I talk to you about it?"

When Lin Nan saw the other party's eyes, he suddenly brightened up a lot.

"Of course, we go outside to the garden and say, it's quiet there."

There are some reasons for the filming of movies, which may not be believed by everyone, and that is to realize the beautiful fantasies of childhood.

This is how the movie "Deadly Magic" was made, without ambition or consideration of box office gains and losses, just to fulfill the interest I loved when I was a child.

But it's a magnificent fantasy movie, and the script was written by the Nolan brothers.

"In my opinion, making a film is about creating a world, and I can add anything I want to it, whimsical ideas that can't be achieved in reality......"

Talking about "Deadly Magic", the great director seems to have opened the conversation.

Even though the $40 million movie didn't pay for itself, it seems that Nolan still loves it.

"Director Christopher, like you, I'm both a director and a screenwriter.

I've got a script in my hand that I think you're going to love very much......"

Lin Nan said coldly about the script, which made Nolan a little unresponsive.

"You said you had a script you wanted to recommend to me?"

"That's what it means, it was written a few months ago." Lin Nan smiled.

Nolan began to look squarely at the oriental director in front of him, thinking that the other party simply wanted to talk to him about "Deadly Magic".

"But I won't necessarily be available."

Nolan smiled and politely declined.

"Take a look at my script, it shouldn't take much of your time......"

Lin Nan sent out an invitation.

"Well, then take a look at ......"

Nolan nodded and agreed, mainly because he had to concentrate on the production of "Batman: The Dark Knight" in the next six months, and he really couldn't spare time to think about other movies.

…………

Tom was a little confused, he came out to attend the drinking party together, why didn't Lin Nan say a word to him and left alone?

At Crystal Pictures, many employees saw that the boss came back with a person and went to the office.

"Who's that?"

"It seems to be the director of "Batman", ......"

Nolan was flipping through the script in his hand.

The eyes are getting brighter and brighter.

With an excited smile on his face, even his breath was a little short.

At this moment, it seems that I have met a confidant.

"Perfectly creative!

I've had similar ideas before, but haven't had time to develop and refine them.

Lin, your script is simply amazing, very wonderful......"

Looking at Nolan's excited face, Lin Nan smiled and didn't answer.

"Lin, let me seriously think about it for two days, I have too much to do, but I don't want to give up this script......"

Nolan looked at Lin Nan and said sincerely.

"Okay, I'll wait for you. If it really doesn't work, then I'll shoot it myself. ”

The moment Lin Nan said this, he saw Nolan's eyelids twitch, and the expression on his face was a little unnatural.

The hand that grabbed the script tightened.

Some directors are pure.

Nolan's eyes just looked at the script just like Lin Nan looked at Liu Yifei.

That's what he wants.

……

Tom returned to the office and saw Lin Nan sending a man out of the door.

The two of them talked and laughed like old friends.

"Lin, he ...... He is? ”

"Christopher Nolan."
