Chapter 206: Dragon Spring on the Tongue
Lin Nan left a week for everyone, and it was officially launched a week later.
Tom pulled a copy of "Vanity Fair" and sighed and read it all morning.
The cover of this issue is Kate Winslet.
Sitting naked on a stool with his legs crossed, he was draped in a large white suit.
On the first page, black silk heels, undressed, lying on the sofa.
The fur is half-covered and half-exposed, with well-defined curves.
"Tom, you're a big influence on other people's work." Lin Nan reminded.
Leonardo may come over in a moment, and Tom's squinting look is a little inappropriate.
"Lin, look how sexy she is."
"Leon will come over later, you can discuss it with him."
"Huh? It doesn't have to be. β
When Tom heard this, he put away the magazine and remembered something.
"I saw a film from my country being promoted in Hollywood, as if it was made by a director of the Palme d'Or."
Lin Nan knew that Tom was talking about "Mei Lanfang", and he also saw the poster, which was still the Peking Opera version of the poster.
The Li name above is the heroine of the Peking Opera "Hongni Pass", which is simply called a male and female.
There are many strange foreigners to see on the spot, and Peking Opera is also one of the iconic cultures in China.
In the morning, Leonardo came by in a car, and I heard that I had recently broken up peacefully again, probably because the other party was going to have a birthday.
"Matt, that guy, kept saying that your script was very good, but he didn't tell me the content."
"It's okay."
"No, no, no, I know him. Just as I talked about "Inception" in front of him, he also used the same words to describe your movie script. β
Lin Nan really convinced these two people, "Then do you want to see the script?" β
"I can't ask for it."
Leonardo followed Lin Nan up to the third floor, and many employees looked at the two.
"It's the biggest international star I've ever seen."
"Me too, I wonder if I can take a photo in a while?"
β¦β¦
A group of people who had just come from China not long ago were discussing excitedly.
"What's all the fuss about, Director Lin and ......"
One of the first batch of people was just about to say something, but they swallowed it back.
"What's wrong with Director Lin?"
Many of the first two batches came over, looking at the brother who was almost speechless just now, with a wicked smile on their faces.
"It's nothing, isn't Director Lin a big name?"
"This sycophant, there is a level."
β¦β¦β¦β¦
Leonardo drank coffee, flipped through the script, and greeted Matt Damon from time to time.
Lin Nan sat in front of the computer and looked at the domestic news.
It has been rumored in the industry that Chen Kaige will cut Zhong Xintong's role, but it has never been officially announced.
Now, China Film, the producer, has spoken, and the scenes involving Zhong Xintong in the film have indeed been all deleted.
As for the reason, I won't say it, everyone understands it.
Leonardo grimaced, "Lin, you should come to me first." β
"Again, you're too expensive." Lin Nan shook his head.
"Lin, next time you have a script, you must show it to me first, the salary is a later story."
Leonardo returned the script with regret.
"Then we'll talk about it next time."

"The Martian" has made many domestic film and television companies and directors move the idea of making big-budget sci-fi films.
Lin Nan was inevitably compared.
Wang Jing's "Future Police" was invested by China Film, and the cost was close to 200 million.
"The Martian produced by Lin Nan is very good, and we will try our best to keep up with this film and do our best to make "Future Police".
On the other hand, another "Cyborg" invested by LeTV is very capable of blowing, and it is worthy of being directed by Liu Zhenwei.
"Mr. Jia has given support, and I will definitely shoot well.
This movie is definitely a sci-fi film comparable to The Martian, and even surpasses it......"
Netizens complained wildly.
"You can't just say big things here just because you've filmed "Big Talk."
"The cost of 10 million dollars, what do you compare to? Take the mouth to transcend? β
β¦β¦
The reason why Lin Nan waited a week to start filming was because "New Moon" was about to be released.
As a pure fan movie, it can't have a long life cycle.
Lionsgate's issuance this time is even better than last year's.
The release time is still Friday.
On Monday, Paul called Linnan.
"The box office is very good, and it should reach 100 million in the end.
But again, the box office potential is insufficient, and it is drastically decreasing every day, and you should have chosen to release globally in the first place. β
"No need. Thank you, Paul. β
"You're welcome."
Lin Nan never thought that the second part could reach the results of the original time and space.
After all, the impact of the financial turmoil is indeed very large.
"Tom, you can contact the equipment vendor in advance.
The profits from "Crescent" are used to buy machines, and when the time comes, I will ship them back to China......"
Lin Nan was ready to spend money for a long time.
The box office of "New Moon" sounds like a lot, but the special effects company is a real bottomless pit.
"Well, I'll get in touch in the next two days."
Tom admires Lin Nan a lot, he knows that the trend on the mainland is to take special effects abroad to do it.
But Lin Nan had been preparing for opening a special effects company a few years ago, and Crystal Pictures was the pedal.
Han Sanping sat in the office, looking at the report of "New Moon", frowning.
When "Twilight" was released last year, Lin Nan had some proportion, so what about "New Moon" this time?
"What did he say?"
"Director Lin said that his proportion is still less than 10%, and asked if we want to buy out the piece?" The secretary replied.
The corners of Han Sanping's mouth twitched, last year's "Twilight" was a miserable loss.
"Buy? Do you continue to lose money when you buy it back?
thought about it very beautifully, and told him that Zhongying would not buy it. β
Han Sanping remembers that Lin Nan persuaded him last year that "Twilight" might not be adaptable.
This year, I actually asked China Film directly if I wanted to buy out the film? I definitely won't buy it.

The divorced male look designed by the stylist for Matt Damon fits the script very well.
He has a slightly yellowish complexion and wears glasses.
The cheeks look thin and fleshless, with an embarrassing beard, and he looks like a typical middle-aged and good man.
"Matt, you've got to get your spirits up, I want to get the movie done within a month."
"Lin, don't worry, I won't let that bastard Leon see a joke."
Lin Nan felt that these two people were really interesting.
The crew is all set.
βactionγβ
Matt Damon in the camera instantly presents the protagonist's shy and restrained tone and demeanor.
In the script, it is also this kind of character that can make the male protagonist get along with a group of children.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
For the Berlin International Film Festival, Lin Nan does belong to the lineage of the lineage.
After learning that he had started a new film, which was still a feature film, the official invitation of the Berlin Film Festival came.
"Last year, it was good to say that "Buried Alive" almost didn't have to do post-production, just cut it.
But this movie can't be done like this. β
Lin Nan's head is big, and next year's Berlin Film Festival is nearly a month earlier than last year, so it's too late.
He also didn't want to affect the quality of the movie because he was in a hurry.
After thinking about it again, Lin Nan replied to the Berlin Film Festival official.
Explained the reason why I couldn't go, and expressed gratitude.
The domestic media is still excited.
"Director Lin Nan and director Chen Kaige are very likely to learn from Golden Bear."
"The competition between two generations of directors, the domestic film industry is full of talents......"
β¦β¦
When Liu Yifei told Lin Nan about the domestic news, the latter was taken aback.
So much hope to see yourself and Chen Kaige compete head-on?
"I can't go, don't say it's in time for the nomination, or before the opening ceremony, and there is a high probability that it won't be good in the later stage."
Liu Yifei's recent commercial film is very full.
So much so that Lin Nan called back many times, but Liu's mother answered it, because Liu Yifei was busy.
Filming scene.
Lucas, played by Matt Damon, is confessed for the first time by a precocious little girl who is less than ten years old.
At first, I felt abrupt, and then I smiled and rejected the little girl, which was not taken seriously at all.
Then the nightmare came.
Here in the little girl, it perfectly embodies what it means:
It's in the nature of women to lie, they are natural actors.
"Lin, your script is fantastic."
Matt Damon gave another thumbs up.
"You should have started the film sooner so we wouldn't have missed the Berlinale."
"I've already refused, don't be sorry for yourself."
Filming continues.
Everyone, including parents, became suspicious and investigated.
As a result, Lucas's house did not have the basement that the little girl said, and all the evidence proved that he was innocent.
Originally, the actor thought that everything was over, but in fact, the nightmare had just begun.
β¦β¦β¦β¦
"New Moon" was released for more than a week, and it was painted again.
But this does not affect its status in the fan base, and the coffee positions of several leading actors have skyrocketed to the highest.
The matter of the third part has to be considered again.
"Lin, they want to increase their salary."
Tom conveyed the meaning of the main creative team.
"What do you think?" Lin Nan asked rhetorically.
"If it is executed according to the earliest contract, it is indeed too low for those actors.
But it's reasonable not to increase the salary, after all, we signed a contract. β
This is indeed a problem, Lin Nan thought for a while and made a decision.
"Give them a two-percent increase, after all, you also said that we can not go up."
"Well, I'll arrange it."
The "Twilight" series is just a cow, and Lin Nan still hopes to rely on it to prop up the special effects company.
When the news of Lin Nan's rejection of Berlin came back to China, the media's reaction, just like the "Hunting" he is now filming, was full of gossip.
"Director Lin Nan met "Mei Lanfang", and he was suspected of lacking confidence......"
"Director Lin, retreat before you fight."
β¦β¦
"These people are really idle, and they can make up this kind of reason." Lin Nan was also speechless.
The filming of "Hunting" became more and more unhurried.
Whether it is Matt Damon, other actors, or director Lin Nan, they have all entered the state.
In the camera, Lucas, played by Matt, is cooking dinner with his son.
A stone, shattering the glass of the window, flew in and almost hit Lucas in the face.
Matt Damon's facial expression is on point.
The subtle expression of the protagonist who realizes something in his heart is perfectly played by him.

"Take a break."
