Chapter 798: Sell to Them

"Produced by Wang Zhonglei and Ye Ning, Wen Zhang's film directorial debut "Lu Yao Zhi Ma Li" was officially launched this morning, with Bao Beier, Zhu Yawen, Song Jia, Jiao Junyan and others participating in the starring roles."

"Director Lin Nan's film "Manchester by the Sea" ended in the first week of release, with a total box office of 290 million, which is expected to become the highest box office of such award-winning films in the domestic film market!"

With Lin Nan's box office appeal, as well as the great name of 8 awards such as Golden Globe, Golden Lion, and Oscar.

After "Manchester by the Sea" entered its second week, the daily box office did not show that kind of plummeting decline, but fell to 30 million.

This box office performance once again made Director Lin Da the object of ridicule and envy of his peers in the circle.

After all, it is too difficult for a winning film to get a high box office.

So far, among the few high-grossing award-winning films in the domestic film market, Lin Nan accounts for two.

One is "The Fault in the Stars" starring him and Liu Yifei, and the other is "Manchester by the Sea", which has not yet been released.

It's been two whole days, and "Wang Banbi" still occupies half of the entertainment hot search;

In the other half, there are seventy or eighty percent of the sentences made by the media and netizens to various big names in the film and television entertainment industry, using the word "half of the country".

In addition, the relevant information and topics of the Magic City International Film Festival have also popped up in large quantities, and the popularity is rising.

"I'm going to give out two or three awards?"

"Yes, Director Lin. Whether it's awards, box office, seniority, prestige or international fame, you're the right fit. ”

Hearing the word "seniority" on the other end of the phone, Lin Nan couldn't help but want to laugh.

The word "seniority" was finally added to his head, how could it feel ridiculous?

After all, he has been emphasized by the old men in the industry for the countless times that he is young and "underqualified".

But think about it, since he won the Silver Bear Award for Best Director for the first time, it seems that 10 years have really passed, isn't these 10 years a proper qualification?

"Well, I see, just give me the process card for the award ceremony when the time comes."

"Thank you Director Lin for supporting our work, then I won't bother you, see you at the film festival."

Hanging up the phone, Lin Nan shook his head with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and continued to be busy with the sub-shot.

After a moment, he couldn't help but mumble again: "Qualifications?" Will I become a dragon in the future? ”

…………

The much-talked-about youth movie "Gardenia Blossom" is quite confidently set for July 10, the summer file, as if it is ready to "grab food".

and the fantasy masterpiece "The Great Wall", co-produced by China and the United States, has also released set photos for the first time, and it will be completed soon.

In major art academies, tens of thousands of 11th grade graduates are about to start their real "crawling" journey in the entertainment industry as the graduation season is coming to an end.

At the end of this graduation season, Jiang Yanrou personally led the team to Nortel. This information quickly spread in the circle.

But what makes the school and countless acting students feel helpless is that Jiang Yurou, the senior executive of Lin Nan Pictures, is not going to sign a new actor.

Her goals are clear, namely the School of Management, the School of Animation, the Department of Photography, the Department of Fine Arts, and the Department of Literature...... There is just no acting academy!

Director Lin Da is rarely at home, and he still sees his own hot search news.

The headline of the news is concise and to the point: Lin Dao Company ignored Nortel Performance Academy for the Nth time, and many other departments have signed contracts......

"Looking at Chinese opera, Nortel, and Shangju, the most famous one in Level 11 is Zhou Dongyu, and this is the result of the college talking to Director Zhang at the beginning. Now look at the following sessions, there is basically nothing famous. ”

"So the school feels very aggrieved by your behavior of sending a new student who has become famous before entering the school to Chinese opera."

Liu Yifei sat on the sofa with her legs folded, holding a book in her hand and flipping through it;

After hearing Lin Nan's words, she immediately raised her head and teased, with a sly smile on her face.

"I can't complain about this, it's all providence."

Lin Nan couldn't help but smile, I heard that Liu Haoran had been admitted in advance by the Chinese opera, and this operation was quite decisive!

As he spoke, Lin Nan picked up the invitation to the premiere of "Taoist Priest Descending the Mountain" on the table.

"Tsk, Director Chen is bursting with self-confidence again this time. The premiere was held on the 25th, and invitations began to be sent nearly 20 days in advance......"

"Not only that, Producer Chen also specially instructed him, I hope we both go."

Liu Yifei closed the book and added it crisply.

"Then go ahead, the flattery of the insiders at the premiere to Director Chen is definitely much better than the movie."

Lin Nan was even more interested when he thought of this kind of thing that would inevitably happen.

Chen Kaige has always enjoyed sycophants very much, and those who come do not refuse, maybe he can really recognize the joke of "half of the country"!

"You, really." When Miss Liu heard this, she glanced at Lin Nan with a smile.

Zhao Yanzi has been in full swing recently, and I heard that the couple followed Ali's old horse to sweep the Hong Kong stock market, and several people gained at least 20 billion Hong Kong dollars.

Even if Lao Ma takes the lion's head, Zhao Yanzi definitely has more than ten or two billion shares. The charm of the financial industry is so naked that it seduces the film and television industry.

At the same time, the domestic market index rushed to 5,100 points in one go after breaking through 5,000 points.

Some experts have already sworn to predict that the real bull market in the domestic stock market has just begun, and in the future, our country can completely rely on stock speculation to support their families, just like the United States......

The domestic stock market is thriving, and in a good situation, some half-dead companies listed abroad cannot sit still.

is talking about Bona Films, they directly issued an announcement to the public:

After the study of the board of directors of Bona Films, Mr. Yu Dong, chairman of the board of directors, commented:

Since its listing on NASDAQ for more than 5 years, the group has not received any effective development, and now decides to submit a delisting application to NASDAQ to officially start the privatization process...... Preparing for a return to A-shares......"

An announcement directly ridiculed the entire domestic film and television industry and financial circles.

If you know today, why bother in the first place? Huayi is going to be 90 billion, but what about Bona? After the exchange rate is converted, the market value is still about 5 billion yuan!

You must know that even the light is steady and steady, and the market value is almost 20 billion! In contrast, over the years, Bona has really been standing still!

……

Before leaving for the Magic City International Film Festival, Lin Nan still maintained the daily rhythm of the company and home, two points and one line.

And "Manchester by the Sea" also lived up to expectations, after getting 290 million in the first week, it won 150 million in the second week.

achieved a box office result of 440 million in two weeks, and Lin Nan was already very satisfied.

As for how much he can get later, he is completely relaxed and does not force his mentality.

Because "Jurassic World", a global IP movie, has been officially released, and on the first day, it completely took out the posture of taking over and continuing the super high box office results of "Avengers 2: Age of Ultron".

"Produced by Legendary Pictures and Universal Pictures, the fourth part of the sci-fi film "Jurassic Park" series "Jurassic World" won 105 million ...... at the box office on the first day of its domestic release."

"Director Lin Nan's film work, the daily box office of "Manchester by the Sea" has dropped to more than 10 million, and it is expected to hit the box office of 600 million."

"Films such as "Doomsday Collapse" and "Extreme Speed" are weak and uncompetitive, and they may be eliminated from the ......"

……

Lin Nan listened to Yue Jun's analysis while browsing the movie information on the Internet.

"It is undeniable that there are indeed many fans of this film, whether it is made into a movie or a TV series, it has a large number of topics and very high popularity.

But the team has also analyzed it in the past two days, if it is to be made into a movie, and it is to be made into a high-quality product, then it needs to be made into at least two parts, each of which is 120 minutes to 150 minutes.

Only in this way can the story be told clearly and the coherence will be clear, so that only fans of the original book can understand it. Of course, it would be best if it could be filmed in the upper, middle and lower parts, but this is even more unrealistic.

In addition, there is no need to talk about the TV series, as long as you follow the original book and don't mess around, you will definitely be able to explode! ”

After Yue Jun finished speaking, he looked at Lin Nan like this.

At the dinner that day, he didn't immediately reply to Ali, but just said that he would go back and think about it; After coming back and talking to Lin Nan about this matter, he still didn't reply to Ali.

In the past few days, the company has conducted a detailed market assessment of this film and has come to a very good conclusion.

Lin Nan's fingers tapped on the table, thinking in his heart.

To be honest, it's okay to make a story into two movies, but it's a bit too much to do it for the sake of an Internet. It's not super IPs like "Journey to the West" and "Romance of the Gods"!

"What does Ali want?"

"Huh?"

Yue Jun didn't react for a while, what Lin Nan asked, "Director Lin is saying?" ”

"Does Ali want movie rights? Or TV series rights? Or do you want them all? ”

Lin Nan looked directly at Yue Jun and asked very seriously.

"Director Lin, are you confused? Ali shouted the slogan, but it has always been 'big entertainment'. Hehe......"

When Lin Nan heard this, he immediately patted his forehead. Well, he's confused.

What is "big entertainment", isn't it the big screen?!

"Sell it to them."

Lin Nan smiled and said decisively, he was curious about what Ali would do later.

At this time, in Yue Jun's eyes, Lin Nan's smile seemed a little ill-intentioned?

"Sell to them? And what about the price? ”

"No less than that, you can quote a little higher!

Ali has less money and you want less, and they may still think that you are looking down on them and despise their production model and thinking of 'popular IP + fan movies + celebrity directors'. If you want less, it will not reflect the high box office value of this movie in the future! The more we want, the more optimistic we are about this movie, the more optimistic we are about them......"

Lin Nan drew a number, and Yue Jun opened his mouth slightly, he was really frightened.

"Is this going to work? Too much, right? ”

"How do you know if you don't try? Don't worry, you can pull a few more times, anyway, the copyright is with us, and the cost is not high. ”

"Okay, I'll have someone reply over there, talk at the dinner table. I have to hold on to this posture. Yue Jun smiled and nodded.

"Well, that's up to you."

"What about TV series copyrights? Shall we keep it to ourselves? ”

Yue Jun, who had just gotten up and was about to leave the office, suddenly stopped again.
