Chapter 213: To Venice
Lin Nan went to see Han Sanping.
"Han Dong, the time has been determined over there, and in July, it will be released worldwide.
The matter of imports needs to be solved by China Film. ”
According to Nolan's email, Inception will be able to complete all the special effects and post-production in April.
The best schedule is the summer file.
When Han Sanping heard this, he was obviously in good spirits, and his face showed joy.
"July was good.
I will inform the following to leave a quota for imported films, and you can ask a few companies over there to send someone to sign the contract. ”
Han Sanping arranged in an orderly manner and glanced at Lin Nan again.
"By the way, the later stages of 'The Hunt' are all done. You're not thinking about your next project? Don't be lazy while you're young. ”
"I'll think about it when the equipment comes back with someone."
After making a deal with Han Sanping about "Inception", Lin Nan left China Film.
The school was already calling him to go to a meeting.
This year's undergraduate art examination and graduate re-examination just collided together.
After all, the former has three rounds of interviews and written exams for professional courses, so the time inevitably coincides.
Again, the film school has no winter vacation, and there is almost no change in it.
Even if there is a change, there are more people.
"Lin Nan is good."
A crisp greeting came, and Lin Nan saw a familiar face.
"Jiao Junyan, senior year, are you still hanging around in school, how many plays have you acted?"
Lin Nan still has an impression of this girl, after all, when he was taking the art exam, his first reaction when he saw this name was Jiao Enjun.
The truth is that the two are not related.
"I didn't play a single one. I'm not in a hurry, although they filmed early, I laid a good foundation in school......"
It's still a guy with his own ideas, which is rare in film school.
"Then you slowly lay the groundwork, I'm going to a meeting."
"Senior Lin Nan, goodbye."
…………
In the past, Lin Nan walked around the offices of the directing department and the acting department at most, and today he entered the school's large conference room for the first time.
He and Lao Jiang sat in the back, listening to the school leaders arranging the process of art examination and graduate re-examination.
Hearing the end, Lin Nan was stunned.
He was not subdivided into the directing department, but followed several associate professors to conduct interviews that did not involve professional knowledge in the first half, which is equivalent to meeting every candidate for the interview.
"Old ginger, don't you bring this kind of fun, right?"
"Originally, Director Tian didn't agree, but the school leaders said that this would give full play to the 'value' of Ling."
"It's too much."
"The last time, I should contribute to my alma mater, don't be late after the year." Old Jiang advised.
The meeting ended quickly, and many people greeted Lin Nan and left.
Although it is a holiday, many of these teachers and professors have "part-time jobs", and it is impossible to rest.
"The Wind" held a press conference.
The leading actors met the public for the first time.
The media are reporting that this is the second time that Lin Nan and Hua Yi have intersected in movies, the first time is "Adventure in the Center of the Earth".
Regarding the script of "The Wind", the gossip that the role of the characters has increased and decreased and resumed has not been spread somehow.
The more and more it is spread on the Internet, it is almost enough to write a 20-episode TV series.
The main creative team denied this, but Lin Nan heard that Wang Zhonglei had opened several employees.
On the other hand, after getting 12 million on the first day, "Racing" earned 9 million on the second day and 8 million on the third day.
The online reviews are one-sided, but at this time it is close to Chinese New Year's Eve, and there will definitely be a significant reduction in the box office.
Liu Yifei took a book of cookbooks and read them all morning.
Lin Nan sat opposite her with a dark face, and whenever the girl looked at him, Lin Nan shook her head, very firm.
Just as the two made eye contact, Lin Nan's phone vibrate.
"Who?" Liu Yifei asked.
"Stranger. Hey, who's that? ”
"Director Lin, it's my ......"
…………
More than half an hour later, Lin Nan drove the car and prepared to go out.
"Are you coming back from dinner?"
Liu Yifei stood outside the car window and asked, like a little daughter-in-law.
"Come back."
I drove all the way to my destination, an upscale tea house.
Lin Nan didn't know if Li An had made a special trip to find him, or if he was passing by.
But since others were kindly invited, he also came.
"Director Lin Nan, sit."
In addition to Li An, there was also a waitress making tea in the box.
After Lin Nan sat down, the waiter withdrew.
"Director Lin's "Hunting" has been completed?"
Hearing this, Lin Nan seemed to understand something.
"It's done, Director Li came to me to talk about it?"
"Yes, I've met with a lot of directors in China these days, and they either don't have the right films, or they've already decided to go to Cannes.
Director Lin's graduation work is my last thought, haha. ”
"Venice?" Lin Nan muttered.
He had thought about Cannes before, and the invitations he had received from Cannes a few years ago had been sent to the school.
But at this time, Li An personally came to invite, which made Lin Nan feel a sense of hospitality.
After all, when it comes to age, qualifications, grades, and prestige, no matter which aspect, the other party is a senior.
"Well, then I'll go to Venice this year and hope for a good outcome."
After thinking about it again, Lin Nan gave a promise.
"Haha, okay, then thank you Director Lin."
Li An held the teacup, and the two saluted each other.
More than an hour later, the two walked out of the teahouse side by side and left separately.
The meeting between the two directors can't be hidden from the media.
By the time Lin Nan returned home, the news had already spread on the Internet.
"Director Li An's appointment with Director Lin Nan, will it be a cooperation?"
"The two directors met in the teahouse, and the specific reason is unknown......"
……
Netizens are sometimes faster than the media.
"One is the president of this year's Venice Film Festival, and the other has a new film, what else can it be!"
Many acquaintances came to ask Lin Nan, and he answered truthfully.
In less than half a day, this matter spread all over the circle.
In the eyes of many older generation filmmakers, going to the film festival is orthodox, especially a Nortel student like Lin Nan.
But there are more opinions, because since the Golden Rooster Award that year, Lin Nan has never participated in any domestic film festival with his works.
Many people remembered what Lin Nan and Ning Hao said on the red carpet of the Golden Rooster the year before last.
"Golden Lion and Golden Bear may be simpler and easier!" This is ironic.
On Chinese New Year's Eve, Shu Zhan came to eat again.
"My small studio is okay, and it's comfortable to be my own boss."
Shu Zhan and Liu Yifei are very similar, they generally have no desires, so they can have fun.
On TV, it is Zhao Benshan's sketch "Not Bad Money", which is already cultivating newcomers.
The next day, all major media were the news of the Spring Festival Gala.
Zhao Binshan's apprentice became popular all over the country overnight.
Lin Nan was looking through the text messages in the early hours of yesterday morning, hundreds of them, all of which were New Year's greetings.
There are a lot of stuck time sends, and Jing Tian's text message is the first, it seems that it is in the crew for the New Year.
The second is Huang Xiaoming, and then Zhang Yi, Hu Ge, and Yang Mi......
…………
"No, they don't have acting skills at all, I don't agree with using these people."
"We are a commercial film, and making money and box office are the first place.
He is very popular now, the kind that is popular all over the country, and he plays it, which is only good for the box office. And they agreed, as long as they can join our crew, the salary is a trivial matter......"
"Still no, I have to be responsible for the movie, even if I used to use newcomers, that's what I was looking for in a professional college, this, what can I do?"
…………
After Chinese New Year's Eve, the daily box office of "Racing" began to recover, and it received 55 million in the first week.
On the other hand, "Under the Red Cliff" is already a bit of a run out of oil.
Just like the media and netizens asserted before, not to mention surpassing "Do Not Disturb" and "The Martian", even the box office of "On the Red Cliff" did not catch up.
The producer may not want to struggle anymore, and after the box office reached 260 million, he chose to go down.
As for the sum of the two "Red Cliffs", whether it is earned or accompanied, only the producer knows.
Over the years, the most sensational thing in the film and television industry came from the new picture.
Zhang Weiping held a media conference to announce Zhang Yimou's new film.
"We will use Xiao Shen Yang, who will shine in the Spring Festival Gala, as well as the members of the Zhao family, this is a new attempt.
At present, the script has been prepared, adapted from the famous foreign movie "Blood Labyrinth".
It will take a few months to start filming, and it will take time to select other actors, filming locations, and crew preparations......"
For a while, the actors in the circle all set their eyes on it.
The new film, which I said a few months ago, has finally been announced.
When Lin Nan saw the news, he couldn't help but want to laugh. "Three Guns" is about to be released.
No need to guess, this is definitely Zhang Weiping's idea. I used to use Zhou Jielun, but this time I used Xiao Shen Yang, who understands traffic.
The art examinations of Nortel and Chinese opera began at the same time.
The two colleges were flooded with tens of thousands of candidates, and it became very crowded for a while.
Lin Nan was called back and prepared for the re-examination of graduate students.
Many candidates look at Lin Nan as if they are looking at a rare thing, you must know that Lin Nan will participate in the art examination every year before, and he is also in this year's brochure.
"Director Lin Nan won't participate in the interview with the art examination this year?"
A lot of candidates who didn't pay much attention to the news asked each other.
"Director Lin does not participate in the undergraduate art examination this year, but as an examiner of the postgraduate re-examination, he will participate in the postgraduate re-examination."
An undergraduate student who maintained order at the scene explained.
A stack of materials was handed over to Lin Nan, and this is the resume of all the students who are going to retake the exam today.
"Lin Nan, you have to be careful today.
You are young, and when you are interviewing, ask questions from your peers.
Our art academy still needs to be active......"
In the future, the update time should be changed, and it will be updated at half past eight in the evening at the latest.
