Chapter 594: Departure, Hollywood

"Let me tell you, "Breakup Master" is going to be set for the summer and will be released at the end of June."

After receiving Wang Changtian's call, Lin Nan couldn't help laughing: "This is really a coincidence. ”

"What's the coincidence?"

"Half an hour ago, Ying Huang just talked to me on the phone, and "Ip Man 3" will also be scheduled to be released in the summer file, and the time is June 27."

At this moment, Lin Nan obviously felt that there was a sense of déjà vu that his left hand was going to fight with his right hand.

It's just that he owns 60% of the share and copyright of "Ip Man 3", while he only accounts for 50% of the investment in "Breakup Master".

Hearing this, Wang Changtian was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile:

"What a coincidence! But that's it, the summer file is so big, it can fully accommodate these two movies to compete in the same schedule without affecting each other. ”

"That's, after all, one is a comedy, the other is an action movie."

"Are you ready to go?" Suddenly, Wang Changtian changed his words and asked.

"I've booked my ticket, and I'll leave in two days."

"Well, then I wish you and Yifei a smooth trip to Hollywood and win awards.

We are all looking forward to it, looking forward to you becoming the first Oscar Best Director in the mainland! ”

"Haha, thank you Wang Dong Jiyan. Do your best, let it be the fate of heaven. ”

Lin Nan sincerely thanked him, but who can say for sure that there is such a thing as winning an award.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Nan didn't bother to continue to work on the script.

He was attracted by today's movie information, and the media and the industry are talking about "The Return".

Sure enough, the literary films of top directors will never worry about making money, and there will never be a shortage of buyers who are generous.

And you don't have to go to the film festival to trade, the other party will find it by itself.

No, Zhang Yimou's "Return" is like this.

The film had just been cut, and the overseas distribution rights in many regions, including North America, were bought by Sony at a high price.

The production industry is full of emotion, it is worthy of the combination of Zhang Yimou and Gong Li, and it is influential in the international film industry!

"The literary film that these two collaborated on is indeed famous."

Lin Nan also agrees with the views in the circle. At that moment, there was a knock on the door.

"Director Lin, "The Invisible Guest" has passed the review." Yue Jun was dressed quite formally and walked in.

"Then choose a schedule and report it back to China Film." Lin Nan said casually.

"I think it's better to wait until the beginning of next month, after the Oscars."

"Huh? Okay, too. I hope you can come back with good news this time. ”

"Definitely."

Yue Jun nodded, looking confident. On a 2 p.m. flight, he will take people to South Korea.

I have already made an appointment with that side to negotiate a time, and it is still a matter of the copyright of "Running Man".

……

Huayi is holding a press conference again.

The theme of this movie is a bit "high-end", and it is known as the first movie in the Chinese film industry to focus on abduction - "Orphaned"!

The protagonist even invited Liu Dehao, which is also the first time he has challenged the role of a rural father in the mainland.

For Liu Dehao, who wants to be a good actor and achieve a breakthrough to prove himself, the temptation of this kind of script is fatal.

I heard that when the crew communicated with him, it could be described as "effortless".

However, the press conference was supposed to be good, but the media blocked Wang Zhonglei.

The reporter pointed to the words "the first focus on cracking down on abduction ......" on the banner at the press conference, and asked Wang Zhonglei, the producer:

“…… What do you think of "Blind Mountain" directed by Li Yang and "Dear" directed by Chen Kexin, which has not yet been released? ”

Good guys, the scene of the press conference directly turned into a slap in the face, publicity, blown overblown!

……

Lin Nan and Liu Yifei have begun to pack their luggage piecemeal.

There are less than ten days left before the Oscars, and the two of them have to leave early.

"Interstellar informed me that I needed to make up the dubbing, and this time we can do it together."

Liu Yifei walked down from upstairs, looked at Lin Nan in the living room and said.

"That's good, save me an extra trip."

Lin Nan responded without raising his head, he was reading the message sent by Wang Baoqiang.

"What are you doing, absent-minded?"

Liu Yifei walked up to him and saw the chat interface.

She realized that it might be a serious matter, so she picked up the black cat on the carpet, sat down on the couch, and went to play a little game by herself.

Lin Nan looked at the message on his phone and was a little speechless for a while.

How to say it, he admires Wang Baoqiang a lot.

Although the latter came out of the countryside, his vision and "wisdom" are no worse than others.

"Huang Bo really guessed wrong this time."

Lin Nan muttered in his heart, and his mobile phone vibrate.

He shook the phone in his hand at Liu Yifei, "I'm going to the garden." ”

"Hmm."

As soon as the phone was connected, Wang Baoqiang's voice came from there.

"Director Lin is good."

"Hey, you've fallen apart too......"

Hearing Lin Nan's words, Wang Baoqiang paused for a moment before reacting, "Brother Bo too?" ”

"Well, that's right. The two of you have really done it together." Lin Nan quipped.

Wang Baoqiang, like Huang Bo, when Xu Zheng communicated with him about "Hong Kong Embarrassment", he put forward a request to invest or exchange zero remuneration for box office sharing.

The result was obvious, and it was rejected.

Wang Baoqiang is a little better, he was not talked about seriously, but he also did not negotiate the salary.

At this point, Xu Zheng is indeed a bit ruthless. He actually wants to sign Wang Baoqiang with the salary of "Thai Embarrassment", how is this possible!

Wang Baoqiang can see it, and there is no negative emotion:

"It's a joke, Chengdu is already like this. Since Xu Zheng said that "Hong Kong" would find another actor, then I don't want to.

It's just that I acted in the first two parts, and suddenly I was absent from the third part, I still want to tell you Director Lin, that's all......"

Listening to Wang Baoqiang's words, Lin Nan still felt a little touched, and his character was really good.

"Then I won't bother Director Lin, I wish you a smooth Oscar early next month."

"Thank you."

Looking at the phone hung up in his hand, Lin Nan sighed with emotion, this Xu Zheng is really enough!

……

"Ip Man 3", "Breakup Master", "Small Times 3".

Three movies in a row announced their entry into the summer file at the same time, which made the atmosphere of the entire film industry instantly agitated.

You can fully predict how lively this summer file will be.

At the same time, February also entered the fourth week, and the total box office of "Outwitting Tiger Mountain" successfully exceeded 1.5 billion, reporting 1.503 billion. But at this time, the daily box office has fallen by 30 million.

The industry can see that it is impossible for the box office of "Outwitting Tiger Mountain" to reach 2 billion this month, it depends on the revenue in March!

The script of "Flower Thousand Bone" has been sent to the General Administration for half a month, and there has been no news so far.

Jiang Yurou also explained to Lin Nan:

"TV drama scripts, especially such mythological themes, take a little longer to review. I guess I'll have to wait until March. ”

Lin Nan nodded and didn't say anything.

He is still struggling with one thing at this time, that is, after the Oscars, should he prepare "Manchester by the Sea" immediately, or wait?

Lin Nan looked up at Jiang Yurou:

"Director Jiang, if the script is reviewed, you will start to set up the project, casting, and audition. It is estimated that by then, there is a high probability that I will not be in the country. ”

"Okay, Director Lin."

……

A magic movie "Zhong Kui Fu Demon" with an investment of 200 million yuan starring Chen Kun and Li Bingbing held a grand opening ceremony in Beijing.

The film industry is hot, and the producers are even more clamoring to benchmark the special effects of top Hollywood blockbusters.

According to Ye Ning, Guangguang and Wanda also got a small amount of investment because of their own business advantages and became co-producers.

Lin Nan didn't want to hit his allies, but he really hadn't heard of any Hollywood blockbuster with special effects that could be made with an investment of 200 million yuan.

Throughout the history of domestic films, eight out of ten movies that use Hollywood special effects as a publicity gimmick have died, and two are half-dead!

He could only wish Light and Wanda good luck.

The time came to the 23rd.

Hollywood has completely entered the atmosphere of the Oscars, and the popularity and grandeur are no weaker than those of the three major European film festivals.

Domestic media are reprinting and reporting, and even official media such as Movie Channel have sent reporters over, because this year is really different.

In addition to Hong Kong Island's "The Grandmaster" being nominated, more importantly, Lin Nan, a mainland director, was shortlisted for four awards.

In the morning, three SUVs were parked in front of the villa.

Lin Nan and Liu Yifei's luggage were neatly stacked in the trunk.

This time, the two of them won't be able to come back for a while.

Miss Liu leaned on Lin Nan and dozed off, and Liu Xiaoli counted her down on the side.

"The alarm clock can't wake you up, does it? Now I'm telling you to wake up, and when you have a child later, let your child call you? Day by day......"

Liu Yifei listened to her mother's "nagging", her heavy eyelids flashed, and she showed a flattering smile.

"Mom, you really have a good idea, you can try it in the future, hehe......"

Good guy, Lin Nan couldn't help but give a thumbs up, Liu Qianqian really dared to think about it!

"I'll let you try."

As Liu Xiaoli spoke, she was about to twist her daughter's ears.

"Ah, Lin Nan save me......"

"Auntie, it's time to go."

Lin Nan blocked half of his body in front of Liu Yifei and said with a smile. He is also very weak, but the mother-in-law in front of him......

Liu Xiaoli glanced at Liu Yifei, who was smiling with a smile on her face, and stopped.

"When you arrive, remember to send a text message back to report that you are safe."

"Got it, Mom."

……

At about nine o'clock in the morning, three cars set off from the villa area and headed for the capital airport.

Lin Nan and Liu Yifei each brought two assistants on this trip, and a few others, who had already gone over to prepare two days in advance.

Outside the airport, when media reporters saw Lin Nan and Liu Yifei, not to mention how excited they were.

Because you don't have to guess where they're going and what they're going to do – Hollywood, the Oscars.

There was no interview, the two just smiled and waved at the reporters. Then hand in hand, we entered the departure hall.

But from afar, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei can still hear their blessings:

"Director Lin, Yifei, I wish Oscar a smooth ......"

……

Today's second chapter, most likely in the early hours of the morning.
