Chapter 178: Anti-Guest-oriented, Orthodox "Ip Man"
Leonardo and Nolan are the kind that treat movies more seriously.
This item will not be leaked at will.
The latter expressed to Lin Nan that he hoped to bring in his old club Warner.
Although this was a request, Lin Nan accepted it without even thinking about it.
The relationship between Nolan and Warner is equivalent to Wen Tsairen and Lionsgate.
Besides, this film also needs to be distributed globally.
Lin Nan told Nolan that he would wait until he identified several investors, and then agreed on the specific division together.
The time is set for next spring.
……
The special effects part of "Painted Skin" has been packaged.
Lin Nan asked Yue Jun to arrange for someone to come and pick it up, and he was not very confident about the way to mail it.
"Director Lin, Director Yue asked me to report to you that the TV series directed by Kang Honglei has begun casting."
"I see. Go back with your things and send them to the post-project team of China Film "Painted Skin". ”
Lin Nan specially instructed.
The last time I went to Jinma was in 03. Lin Nan won the Best Newcomer Award and the Best Original Screenplay.
Unexpectedly, this year, I was in Hollywood, but I received an invitation.
Lin Nan was not ready to go.
"Ip Man" has been filmed intermittently for more than half a year, and now it is almost finished.
Lin Nan had to go over and take a look, and Yinghuang had urged him several times.
Hearing the news that Lin Nan was about to leave Hollywood, Tom was a little regretful.
"Awards season is about to start and you're going to miss a lot of parties and drinking parties.
At least, with your status, it's hard to refuse those young and beautiful chicks, it's a pity. ”
As soon as he opened his mouth, Tom's lewd temperament was exposed.
"Restrain yourself a little and hook up with fewer women, I'm afraid you'll die sooner or later."
"What do you mean?"
"Either she dies suddenly in bed, or the woman is crushed to death in bed, haha......"
"Lin, what you said is too hurtful, I'm already trying to lose weight."
"Okay, I'm leaving, keep an eye on the later stages of "The Martian" and the preparation of the "New Moon" crew.
The next time I come over, it's time to talk about big projects. ”
Tom knew what Lin Nan was talking about, and nodded, "Don't worry, I know the priorities." ”
watched Lin Nan get into the car and be sent to the airport.
Tom slammed his head, "It's time to look at the stocks......"
…………
"Twilight" was released in China.
Although the film had only one week of box office potential in North America, it grossed $70 million.
Zhongying thinks that it can give it a try in China.
Anyway, there are still some funds left to buy films this year, so how can I do it if I don't use it as soon as possible.
"The first-day data is out?"
"It's out, less than two million, maybe we didn't publicize it enough, right?" The secretary replied cautiously.
"How's the feedback?"
"Young people look okay, but they all say that the story is too old-fashioned. And there are too many pirates......"
"Piracy?"
Han Sanping also had a headache. In the WTO, this issue has been complained about countless times in China.
"That's it, try to arrange as many films as possible, anyway, there are no blockbuster movies in the past ten days."
……
Hong Kong Island International Airport.
At the beginning of the year, Lin Nan also flew over from Hollywood.
"Ms. Huo, as the artist director of Yinghuang Group, is she usually so idle?"
came to pick up the airport, and it was Huo Wenxi again.
"Coming to pick up Director Lin is also part of my job."
Looking at Huo Wenxi with a smile on her face, Lin Nan admired her a little, her EQ and IQ were so high.
After getting into the car, the driver drove the car and set off towards the Yinghuang headquarters.
"I haven't congratulated Director Lin yet, the "Twilight" I invested in has been a big hit at the box office again. I don't know, has the sequel continued to participate? ”
"Yes, I'm not short of funds." Lin Nan could hear what the other party meant.
The smile on Huo Wenxi's face did not change in the slightest.
"Dong Yang is waiting in the group, this time Director Lin is coming, I have to let the artists of the group recognize you well, brush your face, and see which of them is lucky to be on Director Lin's movie ......in the future."
Many artists in Yinghuang know that Sister Mani has gone to the plane.
The other party is the youngest director in the mainland.
"It seems that I came to see "Ip Man", which is the only film that the group has cooperated with him."
"Shall we come over then?"
"Take your chances."
……
Lin Nan followed Huo Wenxi into the Yinghuang Building, and as soon as he entered, he had a feeling that he had gone to the wrong place.
There are a lot of young artists.
"Director Huo, do you have an annual meeting?"
"No, this is arranged by Yang Dong, and I will give Director Lin the wind tonight."
"Director Lin, hello, I'm ......"
……
……
Whether you recognize it or not, they all come up to say hello, but why are they all women?
"Director Lin, Gillian Asa, you should remember that they are a group, and when they were at the premiere of "Myth", I took them to meet you.
Gillian is very lucky, she has just finished coming out of the crew of "Mei Lanfang" directed by Chen Kaige, playing the role of Fu Zhifang when she was young......"
Lin Nan looked at the two girls in front of him with a smile on their faces and half-bowed their heads, and nodded, a little surprised in his heart.
Yinghuang really worked hard, and actually stuffed people into Chen Kaige's crew, and he didn't know what benefits he promised.
"It's a pity, they are not here today, otherwise they must come to meet Director Lin, they are male artists who are highly praised by the group in film and television."
When he said this, Huo Wenxi sighed.
He ...... Guys? ”
Lin Nan roughly guessed who Huo Wenxi was referring to, and said bluntly: "No, Mandarin is too bad." ”
Huo Wenxi was a little embarrassed, and Lin Nan's words did not leave the slightest leeway.
"Oh, yes. Director Lin, that fellow, has now confirmed that he will appear in "Dream of Red Mansions" and play the role of Xue Baochai. ”
Lin Nan felt a little funny, "I've only met once, I'm not familiar with it, Director Huo thinks a little too much." ”
Yang Shoucheng's office arrived, Huo Wenxi stepped forward and knocked on the door, and when he heard the reply, he pushed it open.
"Director Lin Nan, sit down, I thought you should be there soon."
Yang Shoucheng still looks like an elegant and elegant person, but this is Lin Nan, and if he changes to other street directors, he will not look like this.
"Yang Dong, "Ip Man" is finished, right?"
"It's already finished, just wait for you to come over and hold a finale banquet."
…………
That night, at Lin Nan's request, there was no warbler Yanyan on the dinner table.
Yang Shoucheng smiled a little strangely, "Listening to Mani, Director Lin thinks that a certain artist in Yinghuang is very suitable for ancient costumes?"
If you want to be a friend, I can still guarantee this, I don't think there is a girl who doesn't admire you......"
Lin Nan was shocked, is it so naked?
"Yang Dong is joking, I'm not Brother Chenglong."
Lin Nan's answer made Yang Shoucheng a little relieved, is this a refusal?
"It's all young people, love is a normal need......"
Yang Shoucheng is not endless.
"Yang Dong, I have someone I like."
Lin Nan raised his voice.
This answer is really fresh and refined, for so many years, Yang Shoucheng has not seen anyone refuse, and he used this reason.
"Yang Dong just said something, don't go around the bush like this."
Lin Nan directly made it clear that this old guy obviously had other things.
"Okay, then listen to Director Lin.
"Painted Skin" has now only set the release time and distribution company in the mainland, but what about other regions? ”
Lin Nan said why Yang Shoucheng did all the bells and whistles as soon as he came up, and he really wanted to make his money.
"I'm going to do this in a few days. Hong Kong Island can be handed over to Yinghuang, because I have no other choice than Yang Dong. ”
Yang Shoucheng was a little satisfied, "What about Southeast Asia?" ”
"There is a high probability that China Film is responsible, except for a few regions."
Although there was a conjecture in advance, hearing this result from Lin Nan's mouth still made Yang Shoucheng a little unwilling.
"Let's focus on "Ip Man", if the results of this movie are okay, Yinghuang and I can continue to work together on the sequel.
If the market feedback is not good, then you really need to be cautious in the future. ”
Yang Shoucheng lifted his spirit for a moment.
…………
The next day, Yinghuang held the finale press conference of "Ip Man".
Lin Nan, as one of the producers, went to the scene.
There are many reporters, and many people have mentioned Wang Jiawei's side of the Ye problem material movie that he is preparing.
In this regard, Lin Nan and Yang Shoucheng have long been prepared.
"This question, you might as well ask the descendants of Master Ip Man, Mr. Ye, he is also here today."
The scene was very embarrassing for a while, and reporters couldn't say that you shouldn't shoot this film in front of their direct descendants, because Director Wang Jiawei had been preparing for a long time.
"I was the consultant for this film, and when this film was made, I was asked for my opinion, and I read the script and agreed to make it.
In order to ensure the quality, Yang Dong of Yinghuang also specially asked me to be the consultant of this movie.
As for the other movies, no one ever said hello to me......"
Anti-customer-oriented, beautiful!
Lin Nan praised in his heart.
After today, "Ip Man" will be a movie recognized by the Ye family, and the rest are not orthodox enough.
The paparazzi on Hong Kong Island turned around and ran to find Wang Jiawei.
As for whether there will be a harvest, I don't know.
The Golden Horse on the Bay Island side also had a result, Li An, a native of his hometown, swept seven awards including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Actor with "Lust and Caution", which can be called terrifying.
Lin Nan did not stay on Hong Kong Island for much longer, and returned to the capital by plane.
The company has sent invitations to Sony, Xijie, and Showbox to watch the film.
It is time to determine the release of "Painted Skin" in South Korea and the island country, two important box offices.
Han Sanping has been in a very bad mood for the past two days.
"Twilight", which was bought for $3 million, did not make much waves in the domestic film market.
Just like it in North America, the box office potential is extremely short, but the numbers are vastly different.
In less than ten days after its release, it was a dumb hit, and the box office finally stopped at 11 million.
Even if China Film releases it by itself and has a theater chain, it is estimated that it will be 7 million.
But to buy this movie, it cost 21 million.
It is equivalent to saying that two-thirds of the loss is directly lost.
"I really let him say it accurately, the water and soil are not adapted!"
Lin Nan was on the plane and saw the domestic box office news of "Twilight".
"Alas, Han Dong, Han Dong, just make up the money for "Buried Alive" at the beginning."
Lin Nan smiled and muttered, in a very good mood.
