Chapter 629: Fixed Angle, Golden Globe and Oscar, Yang Mi's Proposal
In the circle, pickled things happen or are broken every day.
Yu Fatzi, who also made a high-profile appearance at the finale press conference of "After the End" yesterday, was sued by his ex-wife this morning.
The latter used a sprinkled denunciation article to clean up the fat man from beginning to end, from the inside out.
In the long post on Weibo:
From the man's soft rice to marital derailment, to the woman's harassment and provocation by the junior in the circle during pregnancy, until she was forced to give up the founder's equity and divorce.
Even after a few years of divorce, the woman's experience of still not getting any promised compensation and child support for the two children was written in detail.
There was an uproar on the Internet, and a large number of netizens were filled with righteous indignation, with countless voices of condemnation and abuse.
The chairman of a listed company in the film and television industry is actually this kind of goods, which is really disgusting!
On the contrary, the entertainment industry is very quiet, and everyone is silent.
Because everyone knows that what Yu Fatzi's ex-wife said is basically the truth.
She even left some affection and said lightly, she should take into account the feelings of a pair of children.
"Although they refused to respond, the heat of this matter is constantly decreasing on major news media and social platforms, and the means are amazing!"
"Capital can manipulate public opinion, and that's just to suppress it.
No one will take the initiative to offend the fat man and give him eye medicine for irrelevant things. On the contrary, standing on the side of the fat man, you can get benefits. ”
Lin Nan felt it and looked disdainful. Other people's family affairs, just look at the excitement.
"Huang Xiaoming, Xia Yu, Liu Xiaoqing, are their contracts ready?"
Yue Jun nodded and laughed: "It's all ready, this time Director Jiang Wen owes us a favor, hahaha." ”
"In a movie, he stuffed two people in, and they were all main actors, and he had to be returned next time."
Lin Nan couldn't help but joke that Jiang Wen's character is like this.
The more he treats you as a friend, the more he will be able to make some "excessive" demands, and he will not see you at all anyway.
This mode of getting along with friends is full of gentlemanly energy.
If there is something, he can help you carry it; If there is something, he is really looking for you. The main thing is to go straight and not around the corner!
There was a knock on the door, and the assistant stood at the door: "Director Lin, Director Yue, Teacher Huang Bo and Teacher Zeng Li have arrived." ”
"No need to go to the third floor, please come here."
"yes, okay."
Lin Nan looked at the watch in his left hand, it was not too early or too late, half an hour earlier than the scheduled time.
"I'll go to Heavenly Colors first." After Yue Jun said hello, he also left.
When Zeng Li and Huang Bo met downstairs, they chatted, and both of them realized that they wanted to partner with each other in "Looking for the Dragon".
Huang Bo not only has high emotional intelligence, but also can be eloquent, and in just a few minutes, he has already praised Zeng Li with a smile.
Lin Nan looked at the two people who were brought in with a smile and a smile, and was a little confused. Because in his memory, these two people should not know each other!
But after a while, he reacted, Huang Bo in front of him was an old fritter, the kind that made Lin Zhiling fall into a play.
"Director Lin."
"Director Lin."
Zeng Li, who was wearing a cyan casual dress, looked taller, and she was about the same height as Liu Yifei.
Huang Bo on the side is much inferior in appearance.
"Sit. Long time no see, Senior Sister Zeng Li. ”
"It's been a long time, Director Lin." Zeng Li said with a smile.
How do you evaluate Zeng Li?
She gives people the feeling of heroic and tough beauty in appearance, after all, she is the skeleton of Da Tsing Yi.
But her personality is completely opposite to her appearance, too soft and not bold enough.
"Hey, Director Lin, and me. Such a big, living individual in front of you. Huang Bo quipped.
"Not long ago, we just had dinner at Ning Hao's." Lin Nan scolded angrily.
ignored Huang Bo, who was smiling, and Lin Nan got to the point.
"At present, "Dragon Quest" is not sure when it will be launched, maybe in July, maybe in August, can you wait?"
"I'm fine, Director Lin." Zeng Li nodded and said first.
Lin Nan looked at her and emphasized:
"Senior Sister Zeng Li, Yang Xueli's personality in "Looking for the Dragon" is bold and generous, and she is a little different from you, so you have to pay attention to it when the time comes."
"Director Lin rest assured, how can I say that I am also a professional actor, and it is no problem to 'act'.
The rest of my classmates are very strong, and all of them are famous, but that doesn't mean I'm bad. ”
Zeng Li's tone suddenly became a little "harder", and it smelled like that!
"I'm sure I'm fine. If any actor in the circle pushes the play of Lin Nan Pictures, it is purely a bad brain. Haha......"
After Huang Bo finished speaking, he asked curiously: "Director Lin, can you reveal who the other actors are?" I promise confidentiality. ”
"I don't need you to keep it a secret, it's going to be announced in the next two days.
Huang Xiaoming, you and Senior Sister Zeng Li, Xia Yu, Reba, and Liu Xiaoqing. The main actors are just the six of you. ”
Hearing the detailed list, Zeng Li and Huang Bo both paused.
"Tsk, this lineup is strong, can't it be more than one billion box office?" Huang Bo is not modest at all.
"Then I'll be able to talk to Quan'er in a moment." Zeng Li smiled.
While these two were in the company, Lin Nan asked the assistant to bring the contract over.
Originally, they were asked to take it back to see it first, but the two of them signed it on the spot.
That's right, Huang Bo runs his own company, and he is the boss. Although Zeng Li has a compilation, he also has his own studio, which can also call the shots.
Half an hour later, the two left Lin Nan Pictures with the contract and script.
The paparazzi downstairs were excited:
"The agent and assistant didn't follow and came down with the document bag themselves? This picture is a little familiar. ”
"I vouch for my head, it must be a contract or a script."
"There's nothing else but "Dragon Quest", right? The casting of "Charlotte's Troubles" is not the responsibility of Lin Nan Pictures! ”
……
By noon, Weibo, media reports and photos had already spread and were firmly in the headlines.
"Following director Wu Ershan, Huang Bo and Zeng Li appeared in Lin Nan Pictures, and left with their document bags more than an hour later."
""Ghost Blowing the Lantern: Looking for the Dragon" may not have a public casting, or even the casting has been completed!"
"In the record information of the Film Bureau, "Looking for the Dragon" has no other information except for the information of the producer."
Many brokerage companies and actors in the film and television industry are in a hurry all of a sudden.
Everyone has been waiting for the casting news of Lin Nan Pictures, and every movie casting time before will be made public.
Netizens were impatient and ran to Lin Nan Pictures' Weibo to ask.
Even Lin Nan and Liu Yifei's private Weibo were swiped. Many people also went to the Weibo of Huang Bo, Zeng Li and others to inquire.
"The budget for "Dragon Quest" has not been made yet, but it should be these two days."
As soon as Lin Nan arrived home and parked the car, the calls of China Film, Wanda and Guangguang came in one by one, obviously seeing the entertainment news on the Internet.
"The main actors were really chosen, and the rest was easy. Forget it, I'll let people announce it in a moment.
The flying guests of the first season were also set in advance, or calculated the time, and accepted some crew actors to come over to participate in the show with promotional ......"
Although the recording of "Running Man" has not yet begun, the broadcast time of the first episode has been planned, which is in October.
Lin Nan habitually ran to find Liu Yifei, and only realized after entering the villa that Miss Liu had a notice today and was not at home at noon. The prospective mother-in-law was also not in the capital, so she went back to her hometown.
"Looks like I'm going to have to spend noon with you today." Lin Nan picked up a cat and went back to his side.
……
In the afternoon, the news of the update on the official website and Weibo of Lin Nan Pictures completely made many people in the film and television industry lose their minds.
"The suspenseful adventure movie "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: Finding the Dragon", adapted from the famous network "Ghost Blowing the Lantern", has completed the team formation."
The movie "Ghost Blowing the Lantern: Looking for the Dragon" is jointly produced by Lin Nan Pictures, China Film, Guangguang and Wanda, and Lin Nan Pictures is responsible for the production.
It will be directed by Wu Ershan, starring Huang Xiaoming, Huang Bo, Zeng Li, Xia Yu, Reba, Liu Xiaoqing and others, and the specific start time is to be determined. ”
Immediately afterwards, China Film, Guangguang and Wanda reposted Weibo at almost the same time and made the same announcement.
A high-profile and anticipated movie, this is really waiting for the project to start!
On the Internet, countless netizens, book lovers, and fans are as happy as the New Year.
Because whether it is Lin Nan Pictures and other four producers, or this group of leading actors, they are almost all top-notch.
Although many people have their own opinions on casting, thinking that this is good and that is not suitable, most people have an attitude of expectation and support.
After all, this is "Ghost Blowing the Lamp", and it is better to let Lin Nan Pictures, which has a guaranteed reputation, shoot it than to let other companies mess around.
And as we all know, it's impossible to completely replicate the content.
There are only Lin Nan Pictures and China Film, which have the ability and strength to retain as much of the original plot as possible!
"Female No. 2, it's really a good resource all the way."
Jiaxing, Yang Mi looked at Reba in the announced actor list, and said with some emotion.
The fans of "Ghost Blowing the Lantern" are not comparable to "Little Times", and the former can be regarded as a whole network kill.
Gao Weiguang, Zhang Yunlong, Li Xirui, Liu Ruilin and other newcomers in the company who have not been signed for a long time all looked at Yang Mi, the eldest sister and one of the bosses, and they didn't dare to speak out.
Several people know that the two bosses of their own company have been in Shanhai Media for 3 years before, that is, under Lin Nan Pictures.
"We went on to say that the company will invest in the production of some TV series, and you will be given priority. I will also tie you up as much as possible when I take on side plays, including some public events, red carpets, ......"
Yang Mi came back to her senses and continued to talk to the newcomers about the company's future plans, and taught some of the experiences she had learned in the circle over the years and the things to pay attention to.
Ten minutes later, Zeng Jia came over.
"Mimi, there is a promotional event for "Breakup Master" tomorrow morning, don't forget.
Also, the casting of the happy twist you asked me to help you inquire about, I inquired, it's a female number two, it's not good.
Although this was voted by Lin Nanying's owner, I think the female number two is really not worthy of your coffee position. And Happy Twist is a small company, with no filmmaking experience at all, and their leading actors are not as famous as you, so don't think about that......"
Listening to Zeng Jia's unquestionable words, Yang Mi hesitated, and then nodded in agreement.
She simply thought that the movie that Lin Nan invested in must be good, so she took the initiative to ask Zeng Jia to inquire.
"Since this is the case, then forget it."
"Well, that's how it should be."
…………
In the film market, the back wave pushes the front wave.
"Director Lin Nan's work, "The Invisible Guest" was released for 20 days, with a total box office of 451 million, and the daily box office is less than 100,000, or it will be painted."
"Starring Gong Li, Chen Daoming, and Zhang Huiwen, the movie "Return" was successfully screened, with a revenue of 295 million yuan, setting a new box office record for director Zhang Yimou's literary film!"
"X-Men: A Future Past" was released for two weeks, and the total box office earned 700 million, which is unbeatable."
……
Looking at the reports in the media, Lin Nan still had some regrets.
"The Invisible Guest" failed to complete the one-month release period after all, and it lost its box office potential in twenty days.
Lin Nan thought back to his award-winning films and literary films, and it seemed that the best results were still his and Liu Yifei's "Fault in the Stars".
not only completed the one-month release period, but also got a box office record of 488 million domestic literary films, which has not been broken so far.
"Lin Nan, Tom's phone." Liu Yifei's voice came from the villa.
Lin Nan got up from the swing chair in the garden, picked up the tablet and walked back.
Miss Liu rarely got up early today, it was only less than 10 o'clock in the morning.
She was wearing pajamas, with a purple headband and black hairbands, and she was lazily leaning on the sofa and applying a mask, extremely leisurely.
"Oh, hurry up, it's been ringing for a while, and I'm holding both hands."
"It's occupied, eating snacks while applying a mask, and watching cartoons, it's so beautiful."
Lin Nan quipped, but in exchange for Liu Yifei, she spit out her powder tongue and laughed heartlessly.
He picked up the phone, "Aren't you supposed to be ready for some drinking party or party at this time, Tom?" ”
On the Hollywood side, it should be around seven o'clock in the evening, so Lin Nan will swear so much.
"Lin, you still know me, I'm going to a dinner party at Legendary Pictures in a while. But before I do that, I have to report back to you on the progress of the work. ”
"Say, I'll listen to it too."
Without waiting for Lin Nan to speak, Liu Yifei interrupted beside him.
I only heard Tom instantly turn into the "Tom Cat" who saw the master, and his voice was clamped, disgusting.
"Dear Crystal, your voice is better, definitely more beautiful......"
"Haha...... Tom, you're really good at talking. ”
Liu Yifei smiled flamboyantly, she was a fool.
"Seriously, you sycophant."
Lin Nan urged angrily, doesn't this guy know who the boss is? Actually put him aside!
"Lin, Crystal is asking, I can't help but answer. The ancient oriental culture says that it is better to please the boss than to please the boss lady......"
"I suggest you change to a Chinese teacher, the more you learn, the more crooked you are, and you will learn the essence."
As he spoke, Lin Nan couldn't help but laugh himself.
"If you learn crookedly, how can you learn the essence again? Do I need to change personal trainers? ”
Sure enough, Tom's Chinese level was still not enough to understand the meaning of Lin Nan's words.
"I don't need to change teachers, I'm learning pretty well." Liu Yifei interjected with a grin.
"Alright, let's get down to business."
"Lin, Crystal. The company plans to begin a week-long screening ceremony for "Manchester by the Sea" in five days. One ...... each morning and one in the afternoon"
Lin Nan knew that this was the case, and his second trip to the Olympics was about to begin.
Liu Yifei also listened quietly, this is related to Lin Nan's career.
“…… And then there's the PR thing. ”
Tom's voice was a little muffled when he said it to the end.
"PR? Is it a matter of expense? What exactly is the problem this time? ”
"Lin, it's the same thing as last time. Oscar and Golden Globe, do you want to sign up at the same time? ”
"Let's talk about the difference."
Lin Nan estimated that it might be two awards for public relations and one award for public relations, and the cost was different.
"Because you already have an Oscar-winning work, they're offering a little bit lower this year."
"Say."
Lin Nan urged, Liu Yifei pricked up her ears even more, and even turned off the cartoon.
"If it's like last year, just publicizing the Oscars, their overall offer is $15 million, and there is no need to add it later. If we want both the Golden Globe and the Oscars, it's 20 million dollars. ”
"So expensive?!" Liu Yifei exclaimed.
"Crystal, it's not expensive. Because Lin already has "The Invisible Guest", there is hardly a big problem with the nomination.
Last year, we spent $15 million on "The Invisible Guest" in the early stage, and then added an additional $4 million. Fortunately, the movie is all earned back. Tom explained.
Liu Yifei looked at Lin Nan and stopped talking. Lin Nan didn't tell her how much money she spent last year.
Although Lin Nan had been mentally prepared before, when he heard these two numbers at the moment, he still had a little palpitations, just like Miss Liu sang "Heart Palpitations".
"Leon, the salary they saved me is all going to be used here." Lin Nan muttered with a smile.
He glanced at Liu Yifei beside him, those watery eyes were full of love and his courage.
"Golden Globe and Oscar, it's all PR." Lin Nan cut the railway.
"I also have money......" Liu Yifei tugged at the sleeves of the people around her.
"Lin, are you sure?"
Lin Nan shook his head gently at Liu Yifei, with a doting smile on his face.
"I'm sure, PR Golden Globe and Oscar at the same time. The two of them will be registered together, and all the major awards will be declared. ”
"Okay, I'll go and talk to them tomorrow."
After hanging up Tom's phone, Lin Nan also leaned back on the sofa, and he had to slow down.
"You're so decisive, 20 million dollars, more than 100 million."
Liu Yifei's slender and white fingers picked up the small cake and brought it to Lin Nan's mouth, with some worry in her tone.
"Ahh
Lin Nan swallowed it in one gulp, and it was not until he swallowed it in his stomach after more than ten seconds before he said:
"It's okay, I'll throw more Huayi shares next time and make up for it."
"Hahaha, where is your algorithm?" Liu Yifei was amused and gently slapped Lin Nan.
……
The official, the media, and the film industry began to build momentum for the Modu International Film Festival a week later.
This year's Magic City Film Festival, in addition to a large number of Chinese and foreign stars and award ceremonies, the biggest gimmick is the "Internet-Film and Television Industry Summit".
Gong Li, as the chairman of the jury of the main competition unit, also named Lin Nan in an interview with the media.
said that he hoped that in the future, he would have the opportunity to cooperate with the only Oscar director in the mainland. In this way, Director Lin Da was sent to the headlines.
The next morning, Lin Nan went to attend the media conference of "Breakup Master", but he did not accept the interview during the whole process.
The reason is because he is only an investor in this movie and did not participate in the production. In addition, the quality of the film is also indescribable.
However, Lin Nan noticed Zeng Jia, she led a group of signed artists to socialize, all of them were young people with little fame.
"Jiaxing, this can be regarded as recruiting troops, and it has begun to become bigger and stronger? Hehe......"
When Zeng Jia led a group of people towards Lin Nan, he turned his head and went somewhere else. Only the former was left to stop awkwardly for a moment, and also turned a corner.
"Director Lin, respect you."
"Director Lin, please."
Deng Chao led Sun Li and walked over.
"Hmm. As soon as the end of this month, "Running Man" can start recording. You're the captain, so you're going to give some strength. Lin Nan also raised his glass.
Both of the Deng Dynasty are shrewd people, and Sun Li immediately complimented:
"I have to help Director Lin a lot. He is very envious of Xiao Ming for being able to star in "Looking for the Dragon". ”
"Haha, I'm really envious, this is a commercial blockbuster."
"Does each man have his own fate?" Lin Nan said ambiguously.
After a while, everyone dispersed.
In the face of Yang Mi's greeting, Lin Nan smiled and chatted a few words.
After all, everyone also has some incense, there is no contradiction between flies and dogs, and even Lin Nan admires her a little.
Compared with when she was in Shanhai Media, Yang Mi has worked harder for more than a year, and I heard that she is almost spinning in a row, and she is dedicated to her career!
Seeing a group of artists in Jiaxing calling Yang Mi "Sister Mi" from a distance, Lin Nan couldn't help laughing, which was a little interesting.
……
"Mimi, that is, you and Director Lin can talk for a few words, I just wanted to go up...... Alas, forget it. Zeng Jia looked embarrassed.
"If you don't have a grudge or a grudge, why can't you talk about it?"
Yang Mi glanced at it from a distance, and remembered that when she saw Lin Nan at school before, she often recommended herself.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through her mind and looked at Zeng Jia.
"Jiajia, how has it been during this time?"
Zeng Jia understood what Yang Mi was asking.
"Those big companies and capitals say that our current profit scale is still a little worse than the scale of the company.
Even if we promise to invest, we have a lot of appetite, and we are too passive and too losing...... Well? Why did you suddenly ask about this? ”
Following Yang Mi's line of sight, Zeng Jia looked over. In that direction, Lin Nan and Wang Changtian were talking and laughing, joking with each other.
"This is the circle of real industry bigwigs."
"You say, how about we find Lin Nan Pictures to pull investment or financing at that time? Not long ago, Director Lin just invested in a small company. ”
Hearing Yang Mi's words, Zeng Jia subconsciously shook his head, and his face darkened.
"It's still early, don't worry, don't worry, and Director Lin doesn't necessarily look down on us......"
Looking at Zeng Jia's appearance, Yang Mi was a little puzzled:
"Didn't you say that you want to contact those large companies and capital parties in advance to prepare for investment and financing in the future? You're doing it these days, too. ”
"I'll talk about that later."
Zeng Jia squinted his eyes, looked into the distance, and said perfunctorily.
The investor she wants is a simple investor, not a giant in the film and television industry like Lin Nan Films, and it will be ...... if she can't get it
"Okay, listen to you, we'll talk about that later. Still, I think I had a good idea. Yang Mi said casually, without thinking about it again.
……
Lin Nan was chatting with Wang Changtian about "Running Man".
"Zhang Jin's name as a martial arts action actor should be enough, and the body type does not need to be completely benchmarked. If you want to ask for everything, you can just play "Running Man".
According to the script, absolutely no problem. What is a reality show? It is half 'true', half 'show', and then 'people' play in the middle. ”
Wang Changtian said it so reasonably, Lin Nan couldn't help but give a thumbs up.
"Variety shows are worthy of the core business of light, and Wang Dong's summary is incisive! Admire! ”
"Haha, you're welcome, it's all your own people."
Wang Changtian accepted Lin Nan's praise without modesty.
"Then pick a time, gather everyone together, and everyone will meet. By the way, the recording time of the first episode of the first season is set. "Running Man", it's time to run! ”
"Yes, you can."
