Chapter 281: Planned IPO
Lin Nan's idea for Lu Zheng was still very effective.
The box office of "My Beauty Boss" reached 8.6 million on the first day.
Although the lineup is not very big, the evaluation is basically good.
"A very pure romance film, although it is an old-fashioned poor boy and a rich daughter, it is very healing ......"
"No kiss scenes, very clean love movie!"
"Jing Tian's acting skills seem to be on the rise!"
"The heroine is extravagant, not losing to Meryl Streep in "Fashion Witch Devil" ......"
……
Lin Nan saw some evaluations, and said that his acting skills were on the rise, and he was afraid that he would be scolded back again.
The schedule of "The Great Earthquake", as Han Sanping said, was lowered a little, but it was still beyond the normal line.
Huayi chose not to respond to the collective accusations of the production companies in the circle, including the ten-day delay.
When the meat is eaten in the mouth, it is the most practical, and a little accusation is nothing.
A transatlantic phone call, called.
"Tom, if I still get a call from you at night in the future, your year-end bonus will be gone."
“Oh,no。
Lin, please don't be so stingy. I'm calling to give you good news. ”
Hearing this, Lin Nan reacted instantly.
It should be a matter of the box office of "Super Body".
"Say, how much?"
"As soon as Paul got the data, he sent it to me.
I didn't delay for a minute, and I still want to deduct my year-end bonus?! ”
"The 5%, don't wait for ......"
Before Lin Nan finished speaking, the other end of the phone was in a hurry.
"103 million, it's 103 million! You should be able to see the news after dawn. ”
To be honest, this number is already higher than Lin Nan's expectations.
After all, Liu Yifei is trying to be a big heroine for the first time. In his imagination, 90 million would be very good.
"You should go back and thank Leon and Matt, they helped out twice in the middle of the way."
Tom reminded.
Lin Nan nodded subconsciously, "I know, when I turn around, I will thank them in person." ”
This favor is owed.
……
On the second day of August, the film and television industry was very lively.
Lin Nan's "The Martian", after maintaining the box office record of domestic films for 21 months, was surpassed and brushed off by "The Great Earthquake".
"The Great Earthquake" lasted 11 days and received 450 million at the box office, becoming the new domestic film box office champion ......"
"Director Lin Nan is like a thing of the past, and "The Martian" has become history."
"No, Director Lin didn't lose, he still has "League of Thieves". We will be back......"
……
The Internet is full of news of the "coronation of the new king", so it is not lively.
The mouth of the media cannot be stopped.
Lin Nan didn't care about losing the box office record at all.
He searched for a while before he found the news of "Embroidered Spring Knife" under a lot of movie information.
"Lu Yang's first costume film "Embroidered Spring Knife" has a box office of 14.8 million ...... on the first day"
Seeing this data, Lin Nan was much more relieved and content.
The market for martial arts movies is getting smaller and smaller. Especially in traditional martial arts films, the living space is even more insufficient.
For example, "Embroidered Spring Knife" adds officialdom and national righteousness.
Xu Ke's recent "Dragon Gate Flying Armor" focuses on martial arts + 3D technology.
Everyone is looking for a different path.
…………
The crew of "Palace".
When Yang Mi knew about the box office on the first day of "Embroidered Spring Knife", she was excited for a while.
"Mimi, you are the heroine. This movie is set to be hundreds of millions! ”
Zeng Jia shook Yang Mi and said excitedly.
"Yes, this will be the first 100 million dollar box office movie I starred in, haha......"
"Congratulations, Mimi."
"Congratulations ......"
On the side, Feng Shaofeng, Tong Liya and others walked over one after another, smiling.
……
At noon, Sina first published the box office results of "Super Body" in North America in July, which caused another sensation.
"Lionsgate News, the sci-fi action movie "Super Body", was released for a month, and the box office was reported to be 103 million US dollars, making a lot of profits......"
Although it lost to "The Great Earthquake" in China, the results of "Super Body" in North America are eye-catching.
For a while, the topic of Liu Yifei on the Internet skyrocketed again.
The little flowers are nothing, they are too far away to be jealous.
On the contrary, the big flowers are now feeling pressure.
"This is another one?"
The crew of "The Grandmaster", Zhang Ziyi was a little emotional.
She left Hollywood in a gloomy way, and the scenery of the "international chapter" was infinite, and it was still like yesterday.
Now she is still unwilling, still thinking about when to kill again.
In Zhang Ziyi's view, Liu Yifei can be regarded as a masterpiece in Hollywood and has a firm foothold.
"Super Body", Crystal Pictures, Liu Yifei...... Lin Nan! ”
Not only Zhang Ziyi, Li Bingbing, Fan Bingbing......
The big flowers who had ideas all thought of Lin Nan.
……
From the moment the news came back, Lin Nan's phone calls never stopped.
How much money has been made on the books of "Super Body" is clearly placed there, and everyone in the circle can calculate it.
Ren Zhonglun, Ye Ning, Han Sanping, Wang Changtian...... There are even Wang Zhonglei and Yang Shoucheng......
One by one, they called, and the meaning was very clear, and they came to the next project.
"Next time you call me, you don't need to ask about the introduction......"
"Money is not a thing, we have money and cinemas, no matter how big the project is, we can give Director Lin a hand......"
Wang Changtian even promised that if he brought light, he would follow the pot and sell iron next time.
To be honest, Lin Nan has indeed been thinking about new projects recently, and the era of commercial films has come.
……
When I returned to the villa, I happened to see Liu Yifei also driving back.
This red Ferrari, Lin Nan rarely saw Liu Yifei drive it, and it actually drove it today.
She usually likes to drive Lin Nan's big G, which is much more than Lin Nan's.
"Where did this go today?"
"Sister Bingbing invited and said that someone wanted to invite me to make a movie, so I went with my assistant, and it was in the café."
Lin Nan frowned, "Who?" ”
"It's the one you said last time, it's better to deal less with Deng Wendi."
Lin Nan nodded, thinking that it was really her.
Looking at Liu Yifei's appearance, she was obviously not fooled.
"What kind of eyes do you have? I'm not stupid, I certainly didn't say anything.
I don't even have a script, so I'm going to have coffee......"
Miss Liu rolled her eyes and glared at Lin Nan.
Lin Nan smiled and did not speak.
It's just that I admire this Ms. Deng a little in my heart, and her efficiency is quite high, so I'm eyeing Liu Yifei!
"If I ask you to stuff the script again in the future, you will directly say that you will bring it to me for check."
"Well, in your name, I know." Liu Yifei said with a smile.
"Haha, that's good."
Lin Nan really meant that.
In his opinion, Deng Wendi will not have any good projects, and his scheming is too heavy to make friends.
…………
When the time came to August, art schools began to mail admission letters.
Lin Nan saw many child stars posting notices or admission text messages on Weibo.
The most eye-catching are Yang Zi and Zhang Yishan, who were admitted to Nortel together and will become classmates.
"Director Lin, Reba has received the admission notice for the play, and the training program can begin."
"Well, you can arrange it.
Tell her, at least, not to mention two years, at least the first year to calm down, don't be affected by other people's going out to take on the show. ”
"Okay."
The media pays more attention to these child stars and famous newcomers.
Reba is also in the news report, after all, he is the first art candidate signed by Shanhai Media.
……
A phone call, called.
Seeing this note on his phone, Lin Nan's heart suddenly burst.
"Hey ......"
"Director Lin, it's me, Wang Wei."
"Mr. Wang, calling at this time, do you want movie copyrights? Or a TV series? Lin Nan asked with a smile.
Director Lin smiled. The funds raised before, buying copyrights and dramas, are almost exhausted.
This time I called Director Lin to inform you that we plan to submit an IPO in early November. ”
It's been two and a half years.
It has been two and a half years since Lin Nan participated in the potato casting, and now it has finally come to this point.
"So what can I do?"
"In our prospectus, we will use Director Lin's personal information.
After all, Tudou is a video website, and its main business is movies and TV series.
And you are the director of the Golden Lion, internationally famous......"
Lin Nan didn't say anything, this was originally the obligation of shareholders.
He couldn't help but ask, "Everything is ready?" No worries, right? ”
When Wang Wei heard this, he was stunned, and then said with a smile: "Thank you Director Lin for your concern, everything is OK." ”
…………
After ending the call with Wang Wei, Lin Nan was still a little unsettled.
Unlike Huayi's listing on the GEM, Tudou is targeting the NASDAQ......
"Success or failure!"
More than two years ago, when Lin Nan invested in potatoes, he considered this issue.
If he succeeds, he earns.
As for failure?
That's another option.
Lin Nan didn't think about it anymore, and the result would naturally come out when the time came.
He turned on his computer and began to look up the stock market in the United States......
…………
The daily box office of "The Great Earthquake" is still strong, remaining above 30 million.
"Embroidered Spring Knife" and "My Beauty Boss" are also relatively stable, ranking second and third among domestic films.
The blessing of Jing Tian in "Mars" has fully exposed this "My Beauty Boss".
Starlight This time, there is a high probability that it will make money.
"Tian Tian, our movie is very likely to be hundreds of millions."
Lu Zheng said excitedly.
Although I thought that 50 million box office would be enough, who would think that the box office would be too much.
"100 million?"
Jing Tian muttered to himself, a smile overflowing on his face.
"Director Lin's suggestion is very good, I heard from Ye Ning that many audiences who came out of the screening hall of "The Great Earthquake" turned their heads and bought tickets for "Embroidered Spring Knife" and "My Beautiful Boss".
Lu Zheng said excitedly, seeing that he was about to see the money back.
"Uncle Lu, thank you."
Jing Tian's sudden words made Lu Zheng a little at a loss.
"Niece, let's not say this ourselves, we should be happy now.
"Warring States" is still almost a month away, and the results will definitely be better by then.
In the future, we will invest in Hollywood movies ourselves, and you will act ......"
