The time came to the 5th.

"The Great Earthquake" took only half a month to push the box office record of domestic films to 550 million.

At this point, its schedule is finally back to normal.

"Embroidered Spring Knife" strives to maintain the rare good results of martial arts movies, with a daily box office of about 12 million, and the word-of-mouth response is also good.

Lin Nan, Liu Yifei, and Lu Yang are all very satisfied with this result.

Especially the latter two.

Liu Yifei's name as a producer can be regarded as a complete start.

Lu Yang will also become the director of the 100 million yuan club.

Sometimes I have to admit that the potential of romance movies is not as good as other movies after all.

Three days after the release of "My Beauty Boss", the daily box office began to jump twice, and now it hovers around two million.

"Without the blessing of big-name stars, maybe this is what it should have been......"

"Even so, it should still be possible to reach the expected target of 50 million."

……

Lin Nan flipped through the movie information.

"My Beauty Boss" is indeed a bit of a pity.

This movie was originally used to practice Jing Tian's skills. If the cast were a little bigger, the results would definitely be better.

"Hong Kong films are dead", the four-character headline hangs on the news page, which is very conspicuous.

"The Informant", which invested 150 million, had a box office of less than 5 million on the first day in the mainland.

"City Alert", which cost 100 million yuan to produce, was 7 million on the first day.

……

So far, except for "Ip Man 2" in the first half of the year, the rest of the Hong Kong films released have almost all been wiped out.

Lin Nan could think of Yang Shoucheng's mood at this moment.

The money earned from the two "Ip Man" was returned cleanly.

China Film, Guangguang, Huayi, including Hong Kong films invested by Orange Sky and other companies, also ended up with serious losses.

"No wonder I've called several times in the past two days, and this is the reason for my feelings?!"

Lin Nan realized it later.

Let's just say why Yang Shoucheng has been contacting him recently to ask about cooperation.

……

Huayi announced good news.

"The Empire of Babel", which is wholly owned by them and directed by Xu Ke, was shortlisted for the main competition unit in Venice.

This year, this is the only Chinese film shortlisted in Venice.

"Last year's Golden Lion Award winner was director Lin Nan, and I hope this year will still be our domestic director. Director Xu Ke! ”

The media, which has good things, is already reporting it. If Xu Ke wins the Golden Lion Award, then the September schedule will be interesting.

The head-on collision of the two commercial films "Babel Empire" and "Thieves" must be very interesting and topical.

Many people asked Lin Nan on Weibo for his opinion on this matter.

Although it is a competitor, at this time, there can only be one answer: I wish Director Xu Venice to win gold!

On the other hand, Ning Hao's "The Great Robbery" was officially launched in the Magic City Film and Television City.

There were a lot of media on the scene, but only half of the people cared about "The Great Robbery", and the other half asked all about "No Man's Land".

"Director Ning, was "No Man's Land" really sentenced to death?"

"When will it be released?"

"Is it because all the main characters are bad guys?"

……

This time, Ning Hao was much more decisive.

"That's pretty much what everyone guessed, it's impossible to pass the trial.

However, I will reshoot the ending of "No Man's Land" after "The Great Robbery" is completed......"

At this moment, even if it is a complete showdown in the circle.

A group of filmmakers took advantage of this incident to start talking about censorship again, and many of them fished in troubled waters......

"Super Body" is an imported film, and Lin Nan never thought about holding a celebration banquet or anything.

However, Han Sanping was very enthusiastic, and he invited Lin Nan and Liu Yifei to have a meal.

As a distributor, China Film made a lot of money this time.

There were only three people at the table.

"This time, Yifei's "Super Body" can be regarded as a fight to become famous, how do you plan for future development?"

When Liu Yifei heard Han Sanping call her name, she glanced at Lin Nan and said with a smile: "I listen to him." ”

"Han Dong is talking about Hollywood?"

"Hmm."

Lin Nan had thought about this question a long time ago.

"Don't delay on either side. I want to rest, I want to film, and she's also a producer now. ”

Han Sanping nodded, with Lin Nan here, Liu Yifei does have this condition.

"I talked to you some time ago about the next project. How's it going? ”

Sure enough, Han Sanping had a treat, this meal was not so easy to eat.

Previously, Lin Nan planned to make a lighter movie, such as a romance film or a literary film.

He knew that what Han Sanping said was definitely not this, and the latter was fond of big-budget commercial films.

Especially because of "Super Body" this time, many people know the relationship between Lin Nan and Crystal Pictures.

They started to think about it.

Take a boat to sea, participate in Hollywood movies, co-productions, Cypriots......

"Still thinking about it."

Lin Nan did not give an accurate answer.

Liu Yifei didn't get involved in the conversation between the two, and ate something on the side.

"How about a co-production? I don't need you to direct, just check it......"

Han Sanping proposed.

This is indeed a good way to cooperate, and it is currently supported and encouraged in terms of policy.

When Crystal Pictures was established, it was mainly to borrow chickens and eggs, but it did not prevent co-productions from making money!

Lin Nan thought for a while, "Wait for me to think about it seriously in the past few days." ”

"Okay, I'll wait for your good news."

That's what Han Sanping wants.

…………

There is a lot of gossip in the circle.

First, Guo Degang's villa occupied a public green space, and a reporter from Capital TV was beaten when he went to cover it.

Then Deyun Society and Capital TV sprayed each other and did not admit it.

The cross talk jokes are extremely ridiculous, the neighbor is poor, the reporter is a "prostitute", and the capital station that makes him popular is a "dirty unit......

I thought there was no evidence, so it wasn't false at all.

Who knew that someone else threw out the full video and was slapped in the face in an instant.

Now I can only pinch my nose and start the development project, bow my head to admit my mistakes, apologize, and give in......

In just a few days, the attitude took a 180-degree turn.

Guo Degang, who used to have an honest image, smashed the signboard all of a sudden, and this wave is estimated to slow down for a long, long time!

……

After "The Great Earthquake" reached 550 million, the market finally seemed normal.

But the audience seems to be overdrawn, and the box office that "The Great Earthquake" lacks has not been made up for other movies.

"How many "Embroidered Spring Knife" are now?"

"In the last two days, it has rebounded a bit, and it has been released for seven days, with a box office of 84.4 million."

Yue Jun reported a number.

The revenue of a movie accounts for the majority in the first half of the month.

Lin Nan estimates that the final box office of "Embroidered Spring Knife" should fall around 200 million, either lower or just over the line.

"Very good, let's go contact the light, add two more publicity, and notify Lu Yang by the way."

Lin Nan commanded. Now everyone in the circle is saying that his decision to sign Guo Wan and Lu Yang is very predictable.

……

The picture of last year's "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic" is still vivid.

In the past two days, "The Great Cause of the Founding of the Party" has been launched again.

However, this time Han Sanping only hung up his name, and it was director Huang Jianxin who actually worked.

Compared with the previous work, the cast of this part is much inferior.

But what surprised Lin Nan was that Lu Chuan's goods actually mixed into the director team, which was really speechless.

"Lin, do you really want to start this project?"

After Tom received the email, he called to confirm.

The script has been made for a long time, but it has been shelved, he didn't expect Lin Nan to do this project at this time.

"What's wrong, do you have any suggestions?"

"I don't have a suggestion, it's just that we can't do it alone, and you're sure you don't do it yourself?"

Lin Nan never thought of directing such a popcorn-style co-production.

"I'm not going to be the director of this film.

You go talk about Lionsgate and Warner, and if possible, I want to make it a co-production. ”

What co-production means, Tom understands.

This means that once the film is completed, it can definitely enter the Chinese market.

"Okay, Lin. I am sure that they will not refuse such a big cake. ”

"Well, do it as soon as possible, and let me know as soon as there is news."

……

Lin Nan considered several film projects, and finally chose this one.

Because he accidentally saw stills from "Transformers 3" on the Internet......

In terms of time, it was only the beginning of August, but I didn't expect the gunsmoke in September to begin to fill.

The new picture first announced the trailer of "Hawthorn Tree" at 2 minutes and 36 seconds.

Not to mention, the response was pretty good.

"That's right! Girls in those days looked like that, malnourished......"

"His eyes look clear!"

"Why do you look a little silly?"

……

Liu Yifei also paid attention to the trailer of "Hawthorn Tree".

After all, she wanted to play this heroine at the beginning.

"You see, even if you put on makeup, wear a coarse cloth jacket from the countryside, and put some dust on your face, you won't be as 'inconspicuous' as her......"

Lin Nan joked and was given a blank look.

"Where are you talking like that? So what am I like? ”

An image instantly popped up in Lin Nan's mind, a small widow......

Thinking of something bad, Lin Nan shook his head instantly.

"Anyway, the temperament doesn't match, even if you were asked to audition, Director Zhang would probably brush you off."

"Humph......"

Although she knew this in her heart, Miss Liu was still a little unconvinced.

"No, I have to ask them to help me find the script for the literary film, or ......"

As she spoke, Liu Yifei looked at Lin Nan with some anger in her eyes.

……

Ten days after "Embroidered Spring Knife" was released, it successfully exceeded 100 million box office, and the daily box office also dropped to 6 million.

Speaking of which, this is the second movie Lu Yang has made.

"Director Lu Yang has been successfully promoted to the 100 million yuan box office director club."

"Liu Yifei served as a producer for the first time, and the box office of the movie was hundreds of millions of ......"

……

In addition to Lu Yang, the happiest person is Yang Mi.

"Jiajia, it's really hundreds of millions!"

"Congratulations, Mimi. In the future, you will be the heroine of a movie with 100 million yuan, haha......"

In Zeng Jia's opinion, the higher Yang Mi's achievements, the greater the benefits of her as an agent, and the two complement each other.

The icing on the cake will always be more than the one who gives charcoal in the snow.

Whether it is a nodding friend or a good relationship, many celebrities have congratulated Lu Yang on Weibo and praised "Embroidered Spring Knife".

No one can refuse honor!

Even Feng Xiaogang, who usually says that he doesn't care about the Oscars, changed his face as soon as he knew that "The Great Earthquake" defeated "Hawthorn Tree" and won the "Olympic" place.

"Since my superiors have given me this opportunity, then I will definitely take advantage of it, prepare carefully, and see Oscar ...... when the time comes"

……

As soon as these words came out, you can imagine what the ridicule on the Internet will look like.

"I remember when "Golden Armor" was in the Olympics, Director Feng said: He doesn't care about the Oscars! That's a scam......"

"When was Director Feng not like this? He's shrewd! ”

……

When Lin Nan saw these comments, he couldn't help but want to laugh.

is different from the complaints on the Internet, almost all of them in the circle send blessings, except for Zhang Weiping.

"It's hypocritical to the extreme, choose one of the two, why is "The Great Earthquake"?

The misery it sells? Or is it based on the water-injected box office? ”

If Feng Xiaogang is a small steel cannon, then Zhang Weiping is a big cannon.

squirted people, there is nothing Zhang Weiping didn't dare to say.

This is no longer spraying Huayi and Feng Xiaogang, even the recommended unit for the best foreign language film, the General Administration, is also being sprayed......

For a while, the actors and artists in the circle instantly hid away, and the two directorial camps opened fire, for fear of being affected by the pond fish.

To be honest, Lin Nan couldn't figure it out, is Zhang Weiping smart or stupid, the General Administration of Hard Steel?

I don't know if Zhang Yimou came forward to make a statement, or if someone else spoke? The cannon that was still vigorous in the morning died down in the afternoon.

Lin Nan saw half of the excitement, and it ended inexplicably......

…………

Tom's efficiency is quite high.

"Lin, maybe you have to come over."

"What, is there a problem?" Lin Nan asked.

"It's such a big project, it's still a co-production, and they want to interview you ......"

Lin Nan can figure this out.

"Mean, they agreed?"

"So to speak. According to you, I'm pretty much done talking to them. However, co-production is more troublesome after all, and there are many places to communicate.

They think it's safer to talk to you face-to-face again......"

Hearing this, Lin Nan understood what he meant.

The co-production procedures are complicated, and it has to be reported for approval in China, and when Huayi made "The King of Kung Fu", it took a long time just to file it.

"Okay. You tell them that I'll bring someone there in two days. ”

"Well, I'll let you know, Lin."

……

Lionsgate and Warners were able to invite Lin Nan to come over in person, indicating that the cooperation in this film will basically not go wrong.

When the time comes, it is only necessary to finalize the investors on both sides.

"The movie can't be finished, and there is a high probability that it will be operated like this often in the future."

Lin Nan is very aware of this situation, one person's energy is limited, and the ceiling of the two companies is also there, no matter how much, it is really too busy......

……

Lin Nan took out his mobile phone and made a call to go out.

"Han Dong ......"

Han Sanping didn't expect Lin Nan's efficiency to be so high, what he just said two days ago, there is a result today!

"Okay, listen to you. If you want someone, I'll give you someone, and I'll personally help you run the formalities, which is definitely faster than Huayi's time......

But the project, are you sure? ”

"Sci-fi blockbuster. As long as the special effects can keep up, it's definitely a good project! ”

"Good!"

To be honest, I've been coerced by some readers, which doesn't bode well.

Today, I changed part of the outline and forcibly changed it, so it took a lot of time.

I wanted to ask for leave, but I was embarrassed, but I really didn't have enough time, so I could only write 4,000 words.
