The box office trend of "Journey to the West" is better than the original "Thai Embarrassment", second only to "Genius Gunman".

At the end of the first week, the box office was cut at 510 million, standing out from the crowd and winning the championship among the Spring Festival movies!

And "Love Seattle" followed, with 103 million in three days, which also made all the production companies in the industry envious.

In just three days, "Love Seattle" has fully recouped its costs, and it has made a lot of money.

Which company in the circle wants to say that it is not red-eyed, it is absolutely fake.

Several movies that have attracted much attention in the industry have also been completed during this Spring Festival.

"Produced by Guangguang Pictures and directed by Chen Jiashang, "The Four Famous Catches 2" and "The Four Famous Catches 3" were officially shut down yesterday afternoon in Hengdian Film and Television City after eight months of filming."

"It is reported that the second and third parts of "The Four Famous Catches" will be produced in 3D versions, which is worth looking forward to......"

"The first and second parts of the movie "Little Times", written and directed by Guo Jingming, starring Yang Mi, Guo Caijie and others, and filmed, were completed today......"

"Director Guo Jingming made it clear that the first part of "Little Times" will meet the audience in the second half of the year.

……

Lin Nan Pictures, Tiangong Color, and Shanhai Media have all begun to work normally.

In the office, Lin Nan saw Zhao Liying, who flew back to the capital last night.

"How have you been in the crew for more than half a year?"

Hearing Lin Nan's inquiry, Zhao Liying nodded excitedly: "I have lived a very fulfilling life, I have learned a lot of things, and Director Chen will teach patiently." ”

"I've been busy for so long, let's rest for a while. An actor can't rotate continuously, so he has to leave time to digest what he has learned and experience in the crew. ”

"Thank you, Director Lin. The brokerage team is also set like this, and the drama date will be put on first. The main work for the later period of time is announcements, endorsements and commercials, and by the way, take a vacation. ”

Zhao Liying said very seriously, these are also the actor development plans formulated by Yue Jun and Jiang Yurou for Shanhai Media, rather than making artists a pure money-making tool.

"Next month, Yang Mi's contract will expire. She had already talked to the company a few months ago, and the contract would not be renewed after it expired. ”

"In the company's film planning, there were originally some resources left for her, and they will be allocated to you when the time comes, and I will tell you in advance."

Lin Nan had a faint smile on his face, and he said very casually.

But these words, listening to Zhao Liying's ears, instantly made the latter's brain blank and buzzing.

After losing her mind for a moment, she was a little cramped, and she couldn't suppress her excitement:

"I, thank you Director Lin, I won't let the company down."

When Zhao Liying spoke, she stammered a little excitedly.

"Well, there are not many people in Shanhai Media, and we still have excess resources. If nothing happens, you can go back. ”

Lin Nan said with a smile, in Zhao Liying's eyes, this smile was like a spring breeze.

"Well, goodbye Director Lin, I'll go first."

"Oops, I almost forgot. I'm going to go with you, and I'm going to go to the layers of heavenly colors. ”

Lin Nan patted his head and muttered with a smile.

Under the company building, Zhao Liying was still thinking about what Lin Nan said just now.

"Not renewing? What did she think? ”

Zhao Liying was puzzled.

It wasn't until the agent called her in the car that Zhao Liying stopped thinking about this problem.

"Whatever, maybe she hasn't struggled at the bottom, and she's a little ambitious, right?"

In Zhao Liying's opinion, since Yang Mi's debut, she has definitely not suffered as much as she did when she was in Huayi!

…………

Lin Nan also admired Wang Xiaoshuai and their group.

In "Journey to the West", there are some terrifying scenes.

For example, there is a footage of a horrific corpse hanging in the fireplace;

The shot of the fish demon opening his bloody mouth and eating a human head;

A shot of a banshee cutting off human flesh bit by bit with a knife and fork and eating it.

These terrifying scenes scared many children in the theater to cry.

Wang Xiaoshuai and others took advantage of this topic to talk about the movie classification two months ago, and challenged it!

A group of people posted, yin and yang weird, and the outline was online:

"I blushed when I heard the child's cry. I don't understand why the uncles don't do film ratings? What are they afraid of? What are you afraid of? ”

"When parents are powerless to protect their children, only the film rating system can protect them for them."

……

To be honest, Lin Nan felt that these people were stunned, and if they continued like this, they were afraid that they would have to play themselves to death, right?

Sure enough, only one day later, Lin Nan received an invitation from these people, and they wanted to do it again two months ago.

This time, Lin Nan was in the country, and he couldn't hide.

But before Lin Nan could come up with an idea to refuse, the above had already taken the lead.

The children's bureau directly held a meeting and spoke:

"It's the same censorship, why are some directors able to make high-grossing movies? Can you pass the review and go abroad to get the grand prize?

And other directors will only blame their incompetence on the system?

Or do these people have impure intentions and pick bad things to shoot in order to shape their own image? ”

Okay, that's interesting.

Lin Nan heard that not long after the meeting, some of the film projects that Wang Xiaoshuai and others had already finalized were basically all yellow.

Those who got the support funds were stuck or discounted. Where state-owned enterprises have participated in the investment, they have all withdrawn their investment.

When the rest of the investors see this situation, can they still not understand what it means? Decisively, all run!

…………

Heavenly colors.

The second part of "The Four Famous Catches" gives priority to special effects.

Wang Changtian specially called to instruct, hoping that the special effects of the second part would be as fast as possible, and the light was still waiting to be arranged.

But this kind of thing, how can it be said that it can be fast, unless the quality of the special effects is sacrificed, Lin Nan will be "scared" back.

only said that I would strive to get the second part in the first half of the year, and as for the release time, I have to wait for the second half of the year at the earliest, so don't think about the summer file.

At the same time, Lin Nan was not idle, busy with the post-editing work of "The Invisible Guest".

At this time, the news of the Hollywood Oscars was transmitted back to China.

"Lin Nan directed the foreign language film "The Invisible Guest", the female number one Naomi Watts and the female number two Jessica Chastain lost to Jennifer Lawrence at the Oscars and missed the Best Actress Award!"

The domestic media rushed to report it, and there were many people in the circle who either regretted or gloated.

Most people on the Internet basically feel sorry for Lin Nan.

"Almost, in Director Lin's new movie, there is almost an Oscar actress!"

"It's a shame. So far, there has not been a mainland director's film starring an Oscar-winning actor or actress. Director Lin, it's just a little bit! ”

"That Jennifer Lawrence is too unscrupulous, isn't he? When she received the award, she actually shouted: Thank you Weinstein for cleaning up all her opponents for her! ”

……

If Liu Yifei hadn't called and told Lin Nan about this, the latter would still be working hard in Tiangong.

"Send an email and comfort me. Anyway, it's also a friend. ”

Lin Nan muttered, saying that he would do it.

In all fairness, he watched all those movies, and he really didn't think Jennifer Lawrence was better than the others.

But this result just shows one thing, at the Oscars, public relations is really the top priority!

"Well, I have to send a congratulatory email to Li An, this is the second Oscar for Best Director, right? Not to mention, I'm a little envious......"

……

Several movies in the outside world are still fighting fiercely.

"Journey to the West" won 640 million in eight days, and rushed to 700 million in nine days!

The industry is applauding, as if this whole year will be such a good situation.

Although "Love Seattle" ranked second, it has been left far behind, and in 5 days, it received 180 million!

However, as the old saying goes: happiness is contrasting.

Looking back, in other movies, it is a group of local chickens and dogs, and the mood is immediately better.

Huayi's side.

"Report the application for the extension key to "Journey to the West", it will take a month."

Wang Zhongjun's face was ruddy, and he also responded to the old saying: People are in good spirits when they are happy!

The mainland box office revenue of "Journey to the West", Huayi enjoys 70%. Because the production cost of this movie is only a little over 100 million.

And Huayi has accumulated 88 million as a distribution deposit before, and according to the agreement, this money also belongs to film investment funds.

Wang Zhonglei nodded, also in high spirits.

After a few months of loss, I finally saw the money back.

But it's a bit of a pity, the stock price is still motionless, it's a strange thing!

"Okay, I'll go now, I will definitely be able to do it this time!"

Wang Zhonglei said with an oath.

……

On the other side, Lin Nan returned to the villa.

Liu Yifei poured him a glass of water like a little daughter-in-law.

"Leon is estimated to be uncomfortable to death, and the supporting role of the same crew won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, and he doesn't have as many scenes."

Miss Liu joked with a smile.

Lin Nan also nodded, this is indeed sad news.

It's okay if you didn't make the shortlist, but you won the award with the crew, and when you compare it, it is estimated that it will be more uncomfortable.

Suddenly, Lin Nan's mobile phone on the table vibrate.

"Han Dong's phone number."

Liu Yifei handed the phone to Lin Nan.

"It's all off work, I don't know what's going on? If you tell me to go out social, I won't go. I'll just say you won't let it. ”

Looking at Miss Liu's pretty face, Lin Nan teased with interest.

"Okay, if you're not afraid of being laughed at, then I'm not afraid either."

Liu Yifei held her chest with both hands and looked at Lin Nan, very arrogant.

"I'll answer the phone first."

Lin Nan shook his head and connected the phone.

"Han Dong, it's all at this point in time, is there anything else?"

"Good thing. Tomorrow, you ask someone from your company to apply for an extension key for "Love Seattle", and it will be extended until the end of March, half a month. ”

Hearing this, Lin Nan was stunned, he had this idea.

But Han Sanping called to talk about this, and he really didn't expect it.

"When did you take the initiative to care about this kind of thing?"

"When? Right now! In the same schedule and time period, the number of movies that can get the extension key is stuck, basically only one. ”

Lin Nan seemed to understand something, and reacted the next moment.

"Over there, Hua Yi has applied for an extension of the secret key for "Journey to the West?"

"Haha, you're quite quick to react. That's right, that's it. ”

Han Sanping's laughter was very loud, and Lin Nan could already guess what he was going to do at this moment.

"You're going to be fine, right?"

"Tell me, what did I do?" Han Sanping was in a good mood, and asked Lin Nan with a smile.

"Haha, I didn't do anything. I'll let Yue Jun apply tomorrow. ”

"Well, as soon as possible."

After saying three words, Han Sanping hung up the phone, not dragging his feet at all.

Liu Yifei looked at Lin Nan with a shocked expression: "Han Dong won't want it?" ”

Lin Nan nodded, and couldn't help laughing:

"I have a little sympathy for Huayi, Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei offended no one, but provoked Uncle Han! Hahaha......"
