Chapter 491: Movies, TV Series, Dubbing
After settling the matter of film investment, Wu Yan completely let go of his hands and feet.
"In the next two or three months, he will first do casting and troop training, and he will be able to start shooting in the middle of the year.
When the time comes, you and Director Lin will definitely have to come to the set to take a look. He's got tanks and artillery, what a man! ”
Xie Nan is like a virtuous helper, helping Wu Yan deal with personal affairs. Every now and then, I make a phone call to talk about the progress of the film's preparations.
"Well, that's fine."
Liu Yifei also agreed very simply, this is the first movie she invested and produced alone, which is of great significance.
Lin Nan didn't get involved in "Wolf Warrior" anymore, he hurried to finish the post-editing of "The Invisible Guest".
……
The film market in the mainland has returned to a state of bloody rain, but all domestic films are bleeding and turning into cannon fodder.
And "Love in Seattle", although there are still more than ten days to be released, the daily box office has fallen by 100,000, and there is not much left in the number of films.
Lin Nan decisively chose to paint in advance, just to leave a little more living space for other domestic films.
"The potential of the movie "Love Seattle" was exhausted, and the film was released ahead of schedule. The total box office of the movie was reported to be 582 million, unfortunately stopping at the threshold of 600 million. ”
"Produced by Lin Nan Pictures and directed by Lu Yang, "One Man's Martial Arts" will be released at the end of next month, taking over "Love in Seattle".
……
"This movie is a romance film, and the three patch ads are all jewelry, cosmetics and the like, and the revenue is 32 million.
This is still because the movie is produced by our company, otherwise it would be impossible to reach this number with Director Xue's commercial appeal. ”
Yue Jun reported to Lin Nan the summary data of "Love Seattle", this movie is still small and big, and it is very profitable.
"What about "One Man's Martial Arts"?" Lin Nan asked.
Although "Embroidered Spring Knife" is not as high as "Thirty-three Days of Broken Love", due to the type of movie, Lin Nan feels that Lu Yang should be more attractive to advertisers than Xue Xiaolu.
Sure enough, I saw Yue Jun laughing even more happily, "According to the company's practice, there are up to three patch ads, but this time there is only one." ”
"One?"
"Yes, liquor." How can Wulin's lack of wine? They bought out three roll ads and will shoot a long one. The total price is 57 million! ”
Hearing this explanation, Lin Nan understood.
This price, for Lu Yang, is actually a bit inflated. But who is called Yingjing, Jianghu and Wulin, wine is indeed indispensable, and these companies are not bad for money!
At this time, Lu Yang is taking a group of main creators to go on the show and run roadshows, and this movie is still under pressure.
Yinghuang is also busy over there, and they are doing the distribution in Hong Kong and Taiwan.
Speaking of Yinghuang, Lin Nan thought of Jiang Wen's new movie "One Step Away". In the past two days, I have already started casting for the movie.
And Jiang Wen's steps this time are very big, which makes the film industry feel a little crazy.
The initial budget of the whole film is 300 million, and from the start of filming, it is 3D cameras and supporting facilities to prepare for IMAX and other 3D movie versions.
Jiang Wen vowed to benchmark against top Hollywood blockbusters, and the technical team directly hired the Colombian team.
The most important thing is that he is very bold this time, full of confidence and ambition, as if he wants to eat a full meal and get back all the things he lost and earned less.
With an investment of 300 million, Jiang Wen didn't take anyone with him, all of it was borne by him and Ma Ke's Joyful Pictures, and it was wholly produced!
Even the investment intention of his old acquaintance Yang Shoucheng was politely rejected by him, which shows Jiang Wen's appetite and determination this time.
But no matter what, anyway, Lin Nan is confused about the script of "One Step Away".
On the plane back from Cannes last year, the plot and conceived scenes that Jiang Wen talked about had a very good hypnotic effect!
"By the way, the "Chef Ruffian Play" sent an invitation letter to Director Lin, and it was just delivered to the company in the morning."
When Yue left, he didn't forget to remind him.
This movie is also the most anticipated domestic film by the audience in March, known as "three actors, one play".
"yes, I see."
Lin Nan answered and continued to send text messages.
…………
It is said that people are shameless and invincible in the world.
In Huayi, this sentence is vividly embodied.
A few days ago, Zhou Xingchi failed miserably in the lawsuit and returned to Hong Kong Island. That's it, he was also sneered at by many filmmakers in Hong Kong.
Especially those old enemies and old opponents, it can be said that they are unilaterally chasing and scolding, chasing and biting, and their words are extremely unbearable.
And Zhou Xingchi didn't respond to the cynicism of these people, but it was rare to say something else.
In the eyes of the public, Zhou Xingchi's movie output efficiency is very low, but this time it is not.
When he was interviewed by Hong Kong media, he bluntly said that the next movie was on the agenda.
And it was during the filming of "Journey to the West" that he was already thinking about the new movie.
And the new movie will choose between the sequel to "Demon Suppression" and another film project, this time it will not be too long, at most a year and a half to two years of preparation, and the project can be launched.
This news spread from Hong Kong Island to the mainland, and the film industry was excited.
Whether it is a film and television company, a distribution company, or a large number of fans and audiences, they are all looking forward to it.
Several large companies have publicly expressed their intention to cooperate and issued cooperation invitations.
At this time, some mainland media went to interview Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei:
Xing Ye said that preparations for the new movie have begun. So, is it possible for Huayi to cooperate with him in the future, or does Huayi still want to cooperate with director Zhou Xingchi? ”
It is such a question that made the film industry see Huayi's face.
Wang Zhongjun did not hesitate at all, "Of course." Zhou Xingchi is an excellent filmmaker, and Hua Yi doesn't want to miss it. ”
"But the conflict between you has reached the point of a lawsuit, is it possible to cooperate in the future?"
Wang Zhonglei smiled like Yue Buqun and added:
"On the matter, a lawsuit is a lawsuit, cooperation is cooperation, and we very much hope to continue to cooperate with Mr. Zhou Xingchi......"
Just this face makes many peers in the circle "admire", worthy of Huayi!
Wang Zhonglei seems to have completely forgotten that his ridicule and belittlement of Zhou Xingchi a few days ago was extremely humiliating between his words!
In less than half a day, Zhou Xingchi responded to Huayi's statement very rarely, but did not name him;
"In the future, I will carefully choose partners and learn from the lessons I will draw on the films I will direct or produce. Thank you. ”
It's lively, and the circle is lively in an instant.
Although this is a tact, everyone can understand that the movies directed and produced by Zhou Xingchi in the future will not cooperate with Huayi!
You must know that Zhou Xingchi rarely responds to these contradictions and disputes, and this time it can be regarded as an exception for Huayi.
Lin Nan just watched the excitement, the ancients also knew that the daughter bought horse bones, and when he arrived at Huayi, he directly became unloading the mill and killing the donkey, and did it to the partner!
…………
"Actress comparable to Gong Li......"
Lin Nan went through the actresses in the circle, not to mention comparable, but only a little, and there were only a handful.
At this time, the mobile phone on the table came in.
Lin Nan glanced at the caller ID and smiled.
"See my text message?"
"See. I have to say, Director Lin, you really have a vision! ”
"So, do you want to come and sign the contract? I know that you have never limited your path, and you will accept movies and television. ”
Lin Nan invited jokingly.
Zhou Xun on the other end of the phone paused:
"There is no schedule for the first half of the year. I even turned down next month's Hong Kong Island Film Awards, you must know that two of the five films nominated for Best Actress are me! ”
Zhou Xun said this very arrogantly, this is where an actor's real confidence lies.
"Then the second half of the year. I've gone through it in the circle, only you can try it, after all, the object of comparison is Gong Li. Except for ......"
"Hehe, except for being older? Say, I just hung up the phone. ”
"In addition to not being able to enter the group immediately, your temper is also very similar to 'Jiu'er'!"
Lin Nan changed his words in time, this person is really smart!
"That's pretty much it. Then I'll leave the schedule for the second half of the year to you, it's official, I'm very expensive. ”
Lin Nan smiled, "That's it, come back and sign the contract." ”
"Got it."
……
The cost of TV dramas is generally very high, especially when choosing big-name actors.
But Lin Nan doesn't care about these, the webcast channel of this TV series is destined to be a potato.
And the price of the TV station will definitely not be low, just because the cast and the original author are Nobel Prize winners.
After deciding on the male and female protagonists, Lin Nan handed over the rest to Jiang Yurou and them, including the casting of the director and other actors.
Outside, a few little flowers seem to be in the ring.
From time to time, the Tang people here put some Reuters photos of Liu Shishi in the crew of "Step by Step", and Ni Yi and Feng Shaofeng show their affection over there.
Yang Mi is firmly in the top spot, and the 582 million "Love Seattle" is still hot.
The one who wants to complain the most is Yang Ying.
The media is ceremoniously reporting: "One of the new four little flowers, Yang Ying, will star in the new drama of Yu Zheng Studio, "Song in the Clouds of Han Love". ”
Subsequently, Yang Ying also posted a high-profile Weibo, "I will not disappoint you when I join the group next month." ”
Huang Xiaoming is also on Weibo, cheering for his girlfriend and waving his flag, and the momentum is quite big!
However, netizens complained a lot, and there was no shortage of cynicism and sarcasm.
"Yang Ying who has no acting skills, the leader of the knife sect, and Yu Zheng who plagiarizes, this match is absolutely amazing!"
But I also have to say that this combination is full of topics! It's all negative news......"
……
When Lin Nan got home, he received a phone call, which was a joke.
At the end of November last year, he and Liu Yifei, Shu Zhan, Zhu Yawen, and Luo Jin, on behalf of the crew of "Genius Gunman", went to Jinma, and became the big winners.
This incident put the mainland film festival in an embarrassing situation for a while, especially the golden rooster, which was pushed to the forefront.
The call at this time was from a certain "peacemaker" from Nortel.
I hope he can participate in this year's Golden Rooster Award registration, whether it is "Genius Gunman" or "Time and Space Traveler", you can sign up for one or two.
Lin Nan laughed angrily, what kind of shameless request is this? made it clear that he wanted him to go to the golden rooster as a step.
"Registration deadline at the end of May? What does it have to do with me! Look at me like a fool? ”
Lin Nan didn't show any mercy, not to mention that he wouldn't go, but his two movies were 108,000 miles away from the "taste" of the Golden Rooster.
In Lin Nan's view, in the style of the Golden Rooster, even Feng Xiaogang's suffering blockbuster "1942" goes, it is possible to be played, let alone Lin Nan's commercial film.
When he hung up the phone, the other side also asked Lin Nan to think about it again, and Lin Nan replied directly: "Don't think about it." Golden Rooster, I can't climb high, so I won't be a monkey. ”
Tian Xiangzhuang didn't call Lin Nan, which illustrates the problem.
These people definitely didn't say anything about Tongtian, so they had to come to contact and lobby Lin Nan in person, and they didn't look like they were begging for help.
Liu Yifei held her mobile phone in both hands and chatted there. I don't know who I'm talking to, but I'm typing pretty fast.
"Oh, Class 02 class! What are they gossiping about this time? Lin Nan glanced at it and asked.
Miss Liu raised her head and looked at Lin Nan with some confusion:
"I also just saw the gossip more than half an hour ago, they said Tang Yan...... Hurt by love...... Cutting your wrists to find a short view? ”
it!
Hearing this, Lin Nan was dumbfounded, is there such a stupid girl now?
But when he thought about it in the next second, he was relieved, maybe there really was.
Turn on the computer, and the Internet is lively.
After the photos of the hospital were exposed, Tang Yan's studio immediately responded: "I missed cutting the fruit, thank you for your concern." ”
But when you cut fruit, no matter how you miss it, at most you can cut it, how did it become a wrist?
In addition, this month, the media exposed that she was a scum and broke up, and her agent and assistant also accused the man of being shameless and a scumbag, which made the majority of netizens think about it even more.
"Well, maybe she's a silly girl?" Lin Nan sighed and muttered.
At this time, Liu Yifei also came over.
She looked at Lin Nan and said coldly: "If one day, you become a scumbag." ”
"How could I ......"
Lin Nan immediately retorted, he has always been an honest man and does his duty...... The key is that Liu Yifei's eyes are quite scary, she is very serious.
"I mean if, if there really is a day......"
"How?"
Lin Nan swallowed, looked at Liu Yifei's delicate face, and asked with a smile.
I saw Miss Liu's pretty face pasted over, less than ten centimeters away, face to face, looking directly into Lin Nan's eyes.
Suddenly, a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth, she gritted her teeth, and spit out a sentence in a gentle tone:
"Then, let's be sisters."
Hiss......
Lin Nan instantly felt a little cold on his body.
"Then don't think about it, you can have a pair of sisters at most."
"you, who...... Woohoo......"
Fortunately, Lin Nan was witty and blocked Miss Liu's mouth, and it is better not to discuss the topic of being sisters.
The night passed.
The headlines in the entertainment information have been replaced by Tang Yan's news.
The scumbag on Bay Island has become the target of attacks by mainland netizens. What a good girl, white-skinned, beautiful, with long legs...... was actually scum by a young actor on Bay Island, and he was also given a green hat!
…………
"Why did you really become a crow's mouth?"
Zhu Yawen came to Lin Nan Pictures to sign the contract, and said suspiciously.
At the beginning, he was joking with Luo Jin and asked him to try it with Tang Yan. In the end, he joked that having an object is not necessarily a good match, so it's good, it's really right.
"Congratulations, Master Zhu, for making you right."
Lin Nan handed the contract that the assistant had prepared a long time ago to Zhu Yawen.
That is, a dead friend, can go directly to Lin Nan's office to sign the contract, and other actors, at most, go to the conference room on the third floor.
"I wondered, should I go and say hello? After all, they are all quite familiar, and they are all friends. ”
"Privately. Well, it also reminded Luo Jin. Lin Nan nodded and said, I have to say hello.
"By the way, the start-up is going to be in the second half of the year. The partner I found for you is Zhou Xun, study hard. Brother Xun's acting skills will throw you eight streets. ”
Hearing Lin Nan's words, Zhu Yawen immediately retorted:
"How can you be so exaggerated, at most...... Up to four or five streets bar......"
…………
The Golden Rooster Award officially opened for registration.
Last year, because of the competition for the Olympic quota, "1942" missed the Golden Horse, and finally lost to "Search", Feng Xiaogang was so angry, but he complained for a while.
Therefore, this time he signed up for "1942" for the first time.
Immediately afterwards, including "Search", all kinds of "in-system" films, or co-produced films on Hong Kong Island in the mainland, all began to sign up, which are all Golden Rooster's "favorites".
"It is reported that director Lin Nan will be absent from the selection of this year's Golden Rooster Film Festival again, and so far, it has gone through 4 ......"
I don't know where the media got the news, but Lin Nan estimated that it should have been revealed by the Golden Rooster.
In the circle and on the Internet, they can all guess and talk about it.
"Sure enough, there is still no director Lin Nan this year."
"Refuse to refuse, or be absent? invisibly saved face for himself, a cultural person, just can chew words! ”
"It's another year of the Golden Rooster Award, it depends on what moths will come out this year......"
……
"Lin, my dear boss, I waited until it was daytime on your side to call you."
Tom's call came to Lin Nan's side, and his tone sounded like there was some good news.
"Yes, long memory. What is the matter with this call? ”
"Good thing. Is Crystal there? Related to her. ”
"I'm in the company, she went to participate in the magazine shooting, and she said something directly."
"Okay. Lin, didn't you come into contact with Disney at the last Frankenstein cocktail party? They sent in an invitation. ”
Although it has been two months, Lin Nan has not forgotten what he talked about with Disney people.
"Are you sure you've received an invitation?"
"Of course, the invitation was sent to Crystal Pictures. You'd better reply as soon as possible, and Disney will notify you of the follow-up arrangements.
I guess in a month or two at most, Crystal will have to come over for post-dubbing, unless you choose to turn down ...... now."
"What are you thinking? How could I possibly refuse, after all, I mentioned it. ”
Lin Nan said with a smile. After confirming that it was true, he was in a very good mood.
At that time, Liu Yifei went to Paris, and Lin Nan was invited to participate in the public relations reception of "Frankenstein" in the evening.
At the reception, Lin Nan knew that Disney was doing "Snow White", and then he recommended it at the reception, but he didn't expect it to happen.
"Well, I see, I'll pass it on to her. Thank you, Tom. ”
"You're welcome, say hello to the hostess for me. Looking forward to seeing you and Crystal in a month or two. ”
"Haha, yes."
