Chapter 306: Spring Festival, 1942
Lin Nan ignored one thing.
Yang Mi and Liu Yifei are different, especially in terms of film resources.
Miss Liu's resources are the best among actresses of the same age in the circle, and there are many people who envy her.
There are also a large number of actresses, hoping to repeat Liu Yifei's path, but the resources are not easy to find.
Now that she has encountered a "Legend of the Hongmen Banquet" with an investment of hundreds of millions of dollars, it is impossible for Yang Mi not to be moved.
And not all actresses can have Liu Yifei's mentality, Lin Nan said that this is a bad movie, so she decisively refused.
Sometimes, for young actresses, whether a bad movie is bad or not may be the second thing to consider, and the most important thing is to raise the coffee position and brush up the resume!
Lin Nan thought for a while and looked at Zeng Jia.
"Are you sure you've thought about it, and you want to take this movie?"
"Well, Director Lin, we've already thought about it." Zeng Jia nodded, without hesitation.
"Okay, now that it's decided, I won't say anything more. If you have any questions, please feel free to contact Director Yue......"
Seeing Lin Nan nodding in agreement, Zeng Jia immediately relaxed.
"Thank you, Director Lin, I will finalize it with that side as soon as possible."
…………
Chinese New Year's Eve is getting closer and closer, and the entertainment industry is becoming more and more lively.
One by one, star artists are vying to go to the Spring Festival Gala, and the drafts are coming one after another.
Lin Nan specially found someone to get a few tickets with a good location, thinking that he could take Lao Lin Tou in to have a look......
"What do you see? What's there to see?
I can sleep when I am sleepy in the house, and I can lie down and sleep when I am sleepy when I am sleepy at the scene? ”
This intimidating appearance made Lin Nan feel at ease.
"Come on, why are you changing your hexagram again?"
"It's a good idea, there have been a lot of people who have come to see me recently, so I don't bother to go to you."
Hearing this, Lin Nan really couldn't refute it, this was indeed the character of the old Lin Tou.
"Or those people?"
"Yes, those who don't know think I'm a retired worker in a film studio, and they give the most things......"
Lin Nan knew that Daddy was talking about Xiying. In the past few years, almost every year, it is not easy to refuse.
I really couldn't persuade him, so Lin Nan didn't force it anymore.
After telling the other party to pay attention to his body for a long time, he was disgusted and verbose, which was very speechless.
Lao Lin Tou suddenly changed his mind and couldn't come, and a few tickets were wasted.
Lin Nan has no idea of going to the Spring Festival Gala, and Liu Yifei is even more unlikely to join in the fun.
…………
Don't look at it, it's Chinese New Year's Eve soon.
But Liu Yifei should have slept lazily, and she didn't sleep properly.
Early in the morning, Lin Nan was talking on the phone with Zhang Yi and a few people in the courtyard.
The crew of "Pacific Rim" has to spend Chinese New Year's Eve in Hollywood this year.
Lin Nan asked Tom to take Zhang Yi and a few people to the party and cocktail party of the awards season.
"We went to the PR reception for the two films, "The Social Network" and "The King's Speech", which were much more professional than the domestic premieres......"
Zhang Yi is like a person who has never seen the world, chattering non-stop.
But one thing is funny, his foreign language level is almost zero, and Jing Tian has acted as a translator many times......
What Lin Nan didn't expect was that the filming progress of "Pacific Rim" not only did not fall behind, but also faintly advanced.
It can only be said that in the first half of the shooting, the domestic team worked overtime, which was really amazing!
"So, in ten or so days, it's about the same?"
"Yes, the Warner team estimates that it can be completed around February 15th, and we can still rush back to eat the Lantern Festival, haha."
"Then I'll come back and catch you up. By the way, I wish them a happy new year on my behalf. ”
"No problem, Director Lin."
"Pacific Rim" is a big-budget co-production released worldwide, and to a certain extent, it is more important than the previous "Inception", and Lin Nande pays attention to it from time to time......
After talking to Zhang Yi on the phone, Lin Nan also took a special look at the news on the Internet, and sure enough, it had been reported.
"Overseas information, "Pacific Rim" will be officially completed during the Spring Festival."
"The $160 million co-production blockbuster "Pacific Rim" is likely to be released in the second half of the year or at the end of the year!"
…………
When it was almost noon, Liu Yifei finally cleaned up.
It's a little better today, the upper body is a light-colored down jacket, and the lower body is jeans with short boots, but the face is still very conspicuous.
"I've been waiting all morning, 9 o'clock?"
Lin Nan said in a slightly mocking tone.
I saw Liu Yifei with a smile on her face, and said a little scoundrelly:
"I fell asleep and forgot about it, but it didn't affect our shopping."
As she spoke, Liu Yifei picked up Lin Nan and walked to the garage......
The entertainers can be regarded as arresting people today.
Other celebrities and big names are busy announcing, either this New Year's Eve party or the performance recording.
Only Lin Nan and Liu Yifei are different.
One is a big director and the other is a top actress, just wandering outside, eating, drinking, shopping, and having a lot of fun!
…………
Yang Mi is very happy at this time, because the company has agreed to her to take over this "Legend of the Hongmen Banquet".
"Didn't you say when the contract would be signed?"
"When the Spring Festival is over, you can sign it."
Zeng Jia replied. This is the reply she just received, after all, today is Chinese New Year's Eve.
Hearing this affirmative reply, Yang Mi was relieved.
She believes that this "Legend of the Hongmen Banquet" will definitely make her career to the next level.
However, thinking of the news of "Pacific Rim" in the media, Yang Mi felt a little uncomfortable again, it was a $160 million movie......
……
Feng Xiaogang rarely showed off on Weibo.
"This year, my two movies have done 1.1 billion at the box office, and I'm a little tired, so I'm going to lie down on the credit book and sleep well, see you next year!"
A large number of actors and artists in the industry have liked and left messages, all of which are good.
The comments of many netizens are interesting.
"Director Jiang Wen can only sleep seventy percent full, and Director Lin Nan is afraid that he will have to sleep twice!"
The media with good things immediately posted the results of Lin Nan Pictures' four films in a whole year.
"Thieves" is the director and screenwriter, "Embroidered Spring Knife" and "People in Embarrassment" are the screenwriters and producers, and "Thirty-three Days" is the producer.
The box office of the four movies combined, the domestic results alone reached 1.5 billion!
If you count the overseas results of "Thieves", good guys, nearly 20 billion!
No one said anything about this before, but now that it was reported, the circle was instantly agitated.
When Lin Nan drove Liu Yifei back, the phone rang non-stop.
Miss Liu sat in the co-pilot and went over one by one.
"Why don't you join in the fun, he's driving."
Before Zhu Yawen could tease, she was scolded back by Liu Yifei with a word.
"I'm just here to congratulate you. Last year, the total box office of domestic movies was only about 10 billion, and he did one-seventh of it alone......"
After wishing Zhu Yawen a happy New Year, Miss Liu hung up.
She was still very happy, after all, today's call was to compliment Lin Nan.
…………
The Spring Festival Gala, I really won't be able to watch it in two years.
Zhao Binshan couldn't stand it anymore, and took a group of apprentices to play "You at the Same Table", which completely lost the depth of the previous sketches.
……
When I woke up from a dream, it was the morning of the first day of the Lunar New Year.
Lin Nan said that Feng Xiaogang's Weibo yesterday could not have been without the following.
This guy posted a new Weibo in the second half of the night.
"Last year, because of the box office, everyone said that "The Great Earthquake" was a commercial film in the name of a disaster film, and many peers also had great opinions.
I thought about it for a long time and decided to make a truly thought-provoking 'film' in the new year, and this time I won't bring in other investors......"
Many people in the industry paid attention to Feng Xiaogang's Weibo, but they couldn't guess what movie it was for a while.
Lin Nan faintly had some conjectures......
Liu Yifei got up very early today because she was going to watch a movie.
Wearing a knitted hat on his head, a scarf around his neck, and a mask, simple casual clothes, I really can't tell who it is, only the temperament can't be hidden!
"Oh, and say me, look at you."
As Liu Yifei spoke, she turned back and took a black mask for Lin Nan.
"Okay, I'm a director, and I don't often appear in the camera......"
"No, ordinary people can't recognize you, and the media can find you at a glance."
Helplessly, Lin Nan accepted Liu Yifei's pampering and added masks and hats.
……
Liu Dehao and Gong Li acted in urban romance films, to be honest, a bit abrupt.
Although the quality of this movie is okay, the routine is a bit old, after all, it is adapted from the Hollywood movie "Man 100%" more than ten years ago.
Liu De played a "commotion", which is still quite "charming".
The appearance of complaining in mesh stockings and stockings really made Lin Nan unbearable to look at directly.
Thinking of the Liu Dehao he usually saw, Lin Nan had goosebumps.
Liu Yifei looked at it very seriously and couldn't stop laughing.
"You see, even Brother Da has a better eye for choosing stockings than you......"
Lin Nan couldn't help but joke and talked about Liu Yifei's pink stockings.
"Hmph, then you still ......"
"Shhh......h
…………
The two movies released on the first day of the Lunar New Year are "I Know a Woman's Heart" and "Wonder Heroes".
In Lin Nan's opinion, these two movies are estimated to be difficult.
The only drawback of the former is that it is old-fashioned, which is also the most serious shortcoming, and the two leading actors are too expensive, and it is very difficult to get back to the cost.
The latter is purely a bad movie, and the routines are old and rotten. The audience's evaluation is too exaggerated, and after watching it for ten minutes, you can completely guess what the plot is behind......
……
Huayi announced Feng Xiaogang's new film plan.
Sure enough, it was as Lin Nan guessed.
"Director Feng wants to make a real movie, a movie that goes straight to the soul.
For this reason, Huayi has bought the copyright of "Reminiscences of 1942".
We will invest 200 million yuan to support director Feng Xiaogang to complete this historical disaster blockbuster......"
Nineteen forty-two!
Lin Nan saw Huayi's announcement, the movie hasn't even started to work on the script yet, but the project has just been established.
The eyes of the film industry have been cast, and many people in the industry know about this, it is indeed a rare good book.
But when it comes to making a movie, filmmakers who have had this idea have finally dispelled the idea.
As for the reason, it's too miserable......
The word "bitter" is not enough to describe the content of this book!
