Lin Nan drove Liu Yifei back to the company.

The two people who came to pull investment with the idea of trying their luck suddenly seemed a little panicked.

Because the people in front of him, one is an internationally famous director, the other is a top actress and producer, and both of them are the capital parties of the film and television industry.

And the company of the two of them, compared with Lin Nan Pictures and Tiangong Color, is just a grass platform team that does animation outsourcing.

"Director Yue only told me that it is an animated film project, can you introduce it to Yifei and me again?"

In the large conference room on the third floor, Lin Nan sat in the main seat, smiling, and said naturally.

Liu Yifei sat on the side, also a little curious.

She also likes animated movies, almost all of the animated movies on the market are produced by Hollywood, and I haven't seen it in China.

"I'm ashamed." A middle-aged man stepped forward.

"We've always done animation outsourcing, and we've always had plans to make original animated feature films, and we had them back then in '06."

"It wasn't until the year before last that we mustered up the courage to choose the theme of "Journey to the West", because all employees like this, and for the sake of dreams, they can ......"

Seeing that his companion stumbled to speak, the other person took the initiative to take over.

"We think too simply, where is the original so easy to do, design, action, testing, as well as experience, technology, equipment are the key factors restricting us."

"I swore to investors that it would be done in two years and released in 13 years.

But for the sake of quality, the 2-minute scene was repaired back and forth for a year. Not long ago, investors have withdrawn their ......"

The two of you complement each other sentence by sentence, very sincerely.

Lin Nan glanced at Yue Jun, this ordinary investor must withdraw, there is no hope, and the risk is still great.

The two people in front of me are definitely from science and engineering, because at the beginning of the project, it was actually for the ideal!

Liu Yifei listened very seriously, this is her consistent attitude.

"How many people are in your company?"

Lin Nan suddenly asked, the two people opposite were a little unnatural.

"Dozens."

"To be specific?"

"Twenties, originally in their early thirties......"

Lin Nan knows very well that for technology-based companies in the film and television industry, this number is a bit small, and if you can't eat, you have to run away.

"The two-minute scene was brought?"

Hearing Lin Nan's words, the two people on the other side were obviously in good spirits, "Bring it, Director Yue just saw it." ”

Yue Jun also nodded, the reason why he called Lin Nan and said it was good was because he watched the two-minute shot.

"Then let's put it again, I'll see."

A laptop was moved to Lin Nan and Liu Yifei, and the faces of the two opposite sides were already a little more confident.

Although the video is only two minutes long, the two of them still put effort into packaging before they came.

Opening subtitles: "Picking up the Moon Culture - Short film footage of "Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage". ”

Lin Nan nodded, sure enough, this is it!

"Big animated movies are time-consuming and laborious, and there is no precedent for box office profitability in the domestic market, and Hollywood's animated films are harvesting the global market. It was hard to find investment before, right? ”

Faced with Lin Nan's question, the two people on the other side smiled helplessly and acquiesced.

"How many companies have you found to attract investment this time?"

"Director Lin's side is the first one we are looking for. At that time, I was thinking of trying my luck, and if it didn't work out, I would continue to find another company. Kim Dae-young replied decisively.

"Huh? Why am I the first choice? ”

Although Lin Nan had a guess in his heart, he still asked.

"Funds are found wherever they are found, but making such high-end animated films requires more technology, equipment, and talents.

And these, Tiangong colors are all there, and they are all the top in China. Tian Xiaopeng added.

Hearing this, everyone present laughed, direct enough!

Lin Nan thought for a moment, glanced at the two people opposite, and nodded at Yue Jun again:

"You talk, later, Director Yue will tell me the result."

Lin Nan's words made the bodies of the two people opposite instantly tense, and then relaxed again.

"Director Lin, we, are you willing to invest?"

"Well, let's talk to Director Yue."

Lin Nan smiled and nodded, he voted for this project.

"Thank you Director Lin, thank you Director Lin." The two thanked each other excitedly.

Liu Yifei followed Lin Nan, and the two walked out of the conference room.

The next investment negotiation is Yue Jun's job.

……

…………

It's been another two days, the Lunar New Year file is still going on, and the film industry is already dumbfounded.

10 days after the release of "Thai Embarrassment", because there was no opponent, the number of films scheduled was increased by the theater again, and the daily box office returned to 80 million.

At this time, the daily box office of "1942" had dropped to 5 million, and the total box office was reported to be 320 million.

The industry has predicted that this movie will exceed 400 million, which is very difficult. Even 350 million is a big threshold!

At this time, when everyone thinks of Huayi's betrayal of the issuer's alliance in exchange for an incremental ladder account-sharing contract, they only think it's funny and ridiculous, and it is estimated that Huayi will regret it.

On the other hand, Cheng Long's "Zodiac" held its premiere eight days in advance.

Lin Nan and Liu Yifei were not absent.

In the eyes of the circle, the two of them are definitely the most popular couple this year.

Starting from "Genius Gunman", to the Golden Horse Awards, and then to the current popular "Thai Embarrassment", there are Lin Nan and Liu Yifei!

"Director Lin, Yifei, congratulations. This year, they have made a lot of money. In the industry, they are all envious. ”

Wang Zhonglei's appearance of smiling without smiling is really uncomfortable.

"Mr. Wang is polite, just lucky."

Hearing Lin Nan's words, Wang Zhonglei paused unconsciously, is Huayi unlucky?

"Hurry up, everyone is waiting for the two of you."

"Okay, thanks."

Liu Yifei held Lin Nan's arm and laughed quietly: "I guess your words definitely made him choke." ”

"That's his business. But think about it, "1942" did lose quite badly, and it also affected the stock price, tsk. ”

The two walked all the way into the venue, and there were many guests and greetings constantly.

Cheng Long's face is indeed big enough, the big names in the entire entertainment industry are here, and there are many gringos, this is the result of decades of hard work in the film industry.

"Director Lin, Yifei, congratulations on the big sale of "Thai Embarrassment".

Fan Bingbing walked over with a wine glass, his clothes showing his figure a little, and swaying.

"Thank you."

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Ziyi, Li Bingbing and others came to greet one after another.

These people also have a tacit understanding and will not "coincide" to bump into each other.

Liu Yifei is also the object of being wooed and stammered by insiders, but she obviously doesn't like the feeling of being surrounded by people.

So, he took Lin Nan to the side to taste the food, and people with eyes would not come up to disturb him again.

……

In Cheng Long's movies, there will never be a shortage of women, and they are all beautiful women, and "Zodiac" is the same.

Good guy, take the key with one word, and it is also a loss to the eldest brother to be strong and strong, and he can fully consider the actor's own conditions to conceive this kind of plot!

Cheng Lung also fought hard for this movie, and even his wife Lin Fengjiao, who had been in the film for 30 years, invited the scene, this gimmick, I didn't say anything.

even joked about his own death, very confident:

"If I die now, I will definitely become a legend like Bruce Lee and James Dean. "Zodiac" will also be my last work, which will go down in film history. ”

These words, listening to the ears of the guests at the scene, not to mention how exciting they are.

Those who mix in this industry are more or less superstitious, especially on Hong Kong Island, but Cheng Long still said so, which shows how much he attaches importance to this movie.

"I hope its box office can be like the two movies of Director Lin's company, rushing to more than 1 billion."

On the stage, Cheng Long looked at Lin Nan and Liu Yifei and shouted with a smile.

……

In the afternoon, the headlines in the circle were not only "Zodiac", but also Lin Nan Pictures.

This really shocked the circle.

"Lin Nan Pictures signed an investment agreement and will invest tens of millions of funds in the next one or two years to complete the production of a domestic animated film......"

"Lin Nan Pictures, as the producer of "Thai Embarrassment", has submitted an application to the Film Bureau for postponement of the screening, and the new extension key is limited to one month."

Two pieces of news made the entire film industry not calm.

12 days, 800 million box office, "Thai Embarrassment" has this qualification!

Can you animate a big movie?

"Is he floating? I really think that there is such soil in China, and I have invested in domestic animated films?! ”

"Animated films? What genre? Got a head? ”

"It's a postponement again! And let not let other movies live? ”

……

The news spread, and Lin Nan's phone was never disconnected.

Han Sanping, Wang Changtian, and Ye Ning, one moved faster than the other.

"You really voted for cartoons?"

"That's an animated movie, not a cartoon, it's going to be compared with Hollywood!"

Lin Nan once again corrected the fast-talking Han Sanping.

When these people mention domestic animated films, they unconsciously think of those young and infantile cartoons, which is indeed a disadvantage of the domestic animation market.

Foreign animated movies are not inferior to Hollywood blockbusters at all, but in China, on the contrary, I think that they are for children!

"Benchmarking Disney and DreamWorks?" Han Sanping reacted.

"yes, make our own animated films."

"Okay, the organization supports you, and I need to say something. The bureau has also mentioned this, but no company is willing to develop in this area, and the films made are the kind that coax children. ”

"You're not talking about investing anymore?" Lin Nan quipped.

"Forget it, it's too long. At that point, you know, I'm not necessarily in power......"

Han Sanping's words made Lin Nan stunned.

He really hadn't thought about it, and when he calculated the time, it seemed that it was indeed fast.

After ending the call with Han Sanping, Lin Nan sat there and pondered, this is indeed a thing.

……

…………

"Lin, are you coming?"

Tom's voice was still a little excited.

"yes, have someone clean the Beverly Hills villa thoroughly, and I'll be there in a few days."

"Remember to clean up, Tom." Liu Yifei was also on the side, and shouted with a smile.

"Oh, dear Crystal! It's been a long time since I've seen you, will you come over this time? ”

"yes, it will."

"Then when I arrive, I must send some more people to pick you up. Don't worry, I will find the best cleaning company to do the hygiene of the villa. ”

"By the way, Lin, at the Oscar party two days ago, Leon was still complaining about you."

Lin Nan couldn't help laughing, "Then you tell him, see you in a few days." That's all for today. ”

"No problem. Goodbye, dear Crystal, and my unreliable boss! ”

Before Lin Nan could say a word, the phone had already been hung up by Tom.

Lin Nan has to admire Tom, when he and Liu Yifei are present at the same time, this guy always knows who to stammer, he is a chicken thief!
