That year Huayu

The May Day holiday is not considered a big holiday, and the three-day long holiday is destined to be a smoke-filled situation.

The first one to retreat when the situation turned bad was "The White-Haired Witch: Moon Heaven" which was just scheduled to be released in less than two weeks at the end of April.

Yu Dong decisively chose to change his schedule and went to the summer vacation, a big time period, and went straight to the Chinese Valentine's Day.

In his pretentious words when interviewed by the media:

“In order to avoid the internal friction of domestic films and not cause too much pressure and unnecessary box office losses to other domestic films.

"The White-Haired Witch", a martial arts blockbuster with love as its core, decided to give in and choose a summer Chinese Valentine's Day release that is more suitable for it.

Xiao Ming and Bing Bing are the leading actors. We are absolutely confident that we can set a new box office record for domestic martial arts movies, just like "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom." "

In the eyes of many people in the industry, Yu Dong's words are extremely shameless.

Not only does it elevate its own movies, but also denigrates other movies, and it also rides on the popularity of "Taking Tiger Mountain". It's quite cunning!

Lin Nan didn't have any objections to being criticized.

After all, Huang Xiaoming and Fan Bingbing were originally one of the leading actors in "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom."

He is currently busy with "Flower Thousand Bones".

On the desk, there is a stack of documents, including the list of intentions after the audition and the corresponding actor resume information.

I won’t talk about Zhao Liying, the unofficial female lead.

The competition between the male lead and several male and female partners is fierce, and many companies are competing with each other.

For each of these roles, there are more or less several candidate actors, most of whom Lin Nan didn't know.

"Huh? Jiang Xin, has Xixi been decided?"

Seeing the special mark on the list, Lin Nan smiled subconsciously and asked.

"That's right, Yi Fei came here specifically to see me that day." Opposite him, Jiang Yuerou smiled and nodded.

"Then let her."

Lin Nan looked at the list and continued to ask: "Is there no one more suitable than Huo Jianhua for the male lead?"

Although the male lead in "A Thousand Bones of Flowers" is just a tool man.

But the first person on the candidate list and highlighted was actually a Taiwanese actor, which still made Lin Nan feel a little awkward.

It's not that Lin Nan has any objections to this person. He is not interested in the gossip about the actor's private life, and he has never thought about it.

"We have considered it. But his character creation in "Sword and Sword III" is really suitable to move here. He has high popularity and can be a supporting role for our people. Even his shortcomings of not being very good in acting, It can also be turned into an advantage.”

Hearing this, Lin Nan couldn't help but laugh and joked:

"A slightly stiff expression turned into an otherworldly thing, and a habitual frown turned into a melancholic temperament?"

"Haha, yes. In terms of the popularity of male actors in fairy tale dramas, Hu Ge ranks first, and he is second. This is a TV series with a heroine, so you have to promote yourself like this.

Even though Director Lin found Hu Ge, his on-screen image in the fairy tale drama was completely inconsistent with the character of "The Immortal of Chang Liu" and was out of place. "

Lin Nan really couldn't find a reason to refute Jiang Yuerou's twists and turns.

After all, we need someone to support Zhao Liying, so let’s just use this Taiwanese actor. Xianxia, ​​just the right professional counterpart!

"Okay, I won't care about the rest of the matter and leave it to Director Jiang."

"No problem, Director Lin."

…

It has been two months since the filming of "Nirvana in Fire" started during the Spring Festival.

According to Hou Hongliang's feedback, the filming is only halfway through and is expected to take another two months to complete.

As for "Red Sorghum," which was filmed at the end of October last year, so far, the post-production is about to be completed, and it just needs to be sent to the General Administration for review.

Liu Yifei had another announcement and was going to shoot for some fashion magazine. Lin Nan had to attend Jackie Chan's 60th birthday party alone.

It can only be said that the eldest brother is indeed a rare international superstar among Chinese people. The scale of holding his 60th birthday is comparable to that of a film festival.

There are actors and stars from across the Taiwan Strait, Japan, South Korea, Southeast Asia, and even Hollywood, and most of them are big names.

It's not good to have too many people. All kinds of social interactions, active and passive, make Lin Nan feel very annoyed.

So as soon as the birthday banquet was over, he found an excuse and ran away.

The news on Weibo has once again attracted the attention of the film and television entertainment industry, the Internet industry and the financial industry.

"Cao Guowei led Sina's senior management to rush to New York in advance to prepare for Weibo's landing on Nasdaq..."

“Weibo will officially ring the bell and go public within this month!”

…

Lin Nan is also waiting for the day of listing.

It is estimated that the good media will help him calculate how much the 12% of the shares are worth and then report it.

"In the future, I'm afraid I won't be able to avoid all kinds of messy wealth lists..."

Ning Hao called and asked Lin Nan to come over and watch the film. The post-production of "Heart Blossoms on the Road" was completed.

When we arrived at Bad Monkey, there were quite a few people here.

Xu Zheng and Huang Bo were both present, but they did not look as enthusiastic as before.

"Director Lin, you will soon be the major shareholder of a listed company, and you need a treat!"

As soon as he entered the door, Huang Bo came up to him and made a joke. Several people around him echoed, saying that he must be invited.

"Okay, when the bell rings over there, I will set up a table and invite just you guys."

"Hurry up, I'm waiting for you."

Ning Hao shouted and took the lead into the small conference room, which had projection equipment.

The two-hour movie is not only a comedy, but also has a lot of connotations.

It’s the “Avatar” part, it’s very tasty!

After the movie was over, Ning Hao couldn't wait to ask Lin Nan, "How was it? Give me an estimate."

Huang Bo and Xu Zheng also looked at Lin Nan expectantly.

"I can't predict it. But I can congratulate you in advance. It will definitely help you get out of the director's club with a box office of 200 million and jump up several levels."

Hearing this, Ning Hao suddenly had a smile on his face.

“The next thing to fight for is promotion and schedule.

Moreover, I am the director, starring Huang Bo and Xu Zheng, and you are the producer, so there is no way to promote it! Ha ha……"

"Then let's set a schedule and head towards the big schedule. How about the Lunar New Year stall?"

Lin Nan suggested. The comedy is paired with a Lunar New Year episode, and coupled with such a luxurious production team, it is very interesting to think about.

Ning Hao was a little moved, but also a little hesitant.

“The summer season is fine too,” Huang Bo said.

"I won't go to the summer festival. There should be a lot of imported films. But in the Lunar New Year festival, you ask me to have sex with Jiang Wen? It's a bit thankless, isn't it?"

Obviously, Ning Hao is a bit vain. After all, Jiang Wen's last movie "Let the Bullets Fly" was so amazing.

And this "One Step Away" is the second part of the "Beiyang Trilogy" that Jiang Wen publicly announced.

"Forget it, let's not go to the Lunar New Year stall, let's go to the National Day stall instead."

"Listen to me, New Year's Eve."

Lin Nan suggested again that he was hypnotized by Jiang Wen's script, and the audience would never accept it.

But Ning Hao, this guy, was stubborn: "Forget it, be more careful, it's the National Day time.

"Heart Blossoms on the Road" is on the National Day schedule, which is the biggest trick! Let other movies be the meat-grinder that is the Lunar New Year movie. "

Lin Nan looked at Ning Hao who had made up his mind and could only sigh: "Just don't regret it then."

"What can I regret about this? Can I still go out on the street during the National Day holiday?"

Uh... Lin Nan had nothing to say, "Okay, you are the prosecutor, I will listen to you."

When leaving Bad Monkey, Lin Nan and Xu Zheng chatted for a while downstairs.

The latter's "囧" script was rejected and needed revision.

The originally planned start-up time had to be postponed.

"Have you found all the actors?"

"The main cast has been decided."

"I think if it were still the same cast, word-of-mouth and box office would be guaranteed."

"Director Lin, please believe me, the box office and reputation of "囧 in Hong Kong" will definitely not be worse than "囧 in Thailand"."

Xu Zheng did not explicitly reject Lin Nan, but his intention was already clear. It was impossible to use Huang Bo and Wang Baoqiang.

Lin Nan was silent for two seconds, "Okay, the copyright has been given to you anyway, I just sit back and wait for the division of the money."

"Well, I won't let Director Lin down."

Xu Zheng's tone was very polite and official, which also meant that he was unfamiliar.

People will eventually change because of interests.

…

The weather is quite cold despite the late spring weather.

In the evening, Liu Yifei got out of the nanny's car wearing a down jacket.

As soon as she entered the door, she slumped down on the sofa, lazily, not wanting to move.

Then a phone call summoned Lin Nan from next door, like a young lady summoning her son-in-law.

After Lin Nan put down the script and came over, the first thing he did was to use it as a pillow for her?

"Sissi, you are very stylish."

Lin Nan joked while stroking Liu Yifei's long hair.

"Yeah, don't move, I'll tell you something."

Liu Yifei knocked down Lin Nan's other hand and held it in her arms.

"Say it."

“They want to invite you to shoot a magazine issue.

Say it in advance, it’s because you don’t have an agent that you came to me. He told me when he was about to finish work. "

"I'm not an actor or entertainer, so I don't need these things. Your brand owners just try to take advantage of me regardless of anything, and they take advantage of me a lot."

Lin Nan refused with a smile.

"Okay, I'll reply to them tomorrow." Liu Yifei said immediately.

"However, if there is a chance in the future, we can do a double issue of the magazine, you and me."

Hearing Lin Nan's words, Miss Liu's eyes suddenly lit up, "Well, okay."

…

In the evening, during the Hong Kong Island Film Awards ceremony, the mainland media and even Weibo only gave some short messages.

"The Grandmaster" won 12 awards, which sounds like a joke.

People on the Internet are joking that this is not the Hong Kong Film Awards ceremony, but a commendation ceremony for "The Grandmaster".

Many people in the industry are still joking, saying that Zhang Jin, who came to Hong Kong as a "brother-in-law", was finally regarded as one of his own and won the Best Supporting Actor award.

The Hong Kong Film Awards are completely in decline.

Even Chen Jiashang, the chairman of the jury, was laughing at himself, saying that the Academy Awards were like kindergarten children playing house, with no surprises and seeing the whole thing at a glance.

The next day, Lin Nan got up so early that she was kicked by Liu Yifei who was in a daze, disturbing her sleep.

"Brother Lin, when will you arrive? It will start at nine o'clock."

While washing up, Lin Nan replied: "I'm going out soon, why are you in a hurry? Let Lao Jiang put you in a row at the back."

Today is the defense of the postgraduate student of Nortel's directing department. As Han Jianu's thigh, Lin Nan was reminded several days in advance not to miss the time.

"Then hurry up. Let me tell you something by the way. The school leader seems to have just asked Teacher Jiang when you will arrive."

"Oh, I see."

Lin Nan wiped his face and had some guesses in his mind.

The leaders of the film school probably wanted to take this opportunity to interview him.
