That year Huayu

Scheduled to be held on the 31st of the month, the celebration banquet for "Beautiful Heart" hosted by Bad Monkey is destined to be a grand ceremony in the film and television industry.

Because this is the fifth movie in the Chinese film industry to break 1 billion in box office.

With this, Ning Hao was officially promoted to become the fourth major Chinese film director with a single film box office exceeding 1 billion, which is of great significance!

There are so many people in his circle who are eager to win over, curry favor with, and make friends with him.

On the other hand, since Matt Damon appeared at the Capital Airport on the 25th, he has been targeted by the mainland media.

In the past three or four days, although his schedule has been kept very confidential, he was still photographed by reporters squatting outside China Film.

If the industry was just skeptical before, then this time it is a direct hammer.

Namely: Matt Damon was selected by the two major Hollywood giants and production teams, Legend and Universal, as one of the core starring actors in "The Great Wall"!

Because regardless of his status or fame, he is 100% in line with the casting requirements for the male lead in "The Great Wall".

Especially on the morning of the 29th, when two well-known Hollywood movie stars, Willem Dafoe and Pedro Pascal, appeared at the Capital Airport at the same time and were picked up by China Film Group Corporation, the mainland film and television industry was completely excited.

Even Lin Nan and Liu Yifei, who had just returned home after eating and drinking at Ning Hao's place, couldn't help but sigh: "The Great Wall" is such a generous movie!

"You were dismissed? Were you notified by phone? You are not suitable in the first place."

Liu Yifei received a call from Zhou Xun and laughed and joked.

The latter's somewhat unconvinced voice came from the mobile phone's external speaker:

"That said, how do you know I'm not suitable? Sister, what role can't I handle?

Oh my gosh, have you seen the script? Otherwise, how could you say I am not suitable? Come on, have you read the script? "

Zhou Xun's reaction was quite fast and he caught the key point instantly.

"I heard what Lin Nan said, don't spread it nonsense."

"Huh? He knows the script, but you didn't go?? Got it! I'd better prepare to promote "A Coquettish Woman Has the Best Life" honestly.

I just don’t know if Xiao Ming has a chance to get the role? During the audition that day, we met at the China Film Studio. "

"Don't think about it, he's definitely out of luck."

Lin Nan came over with a cup in hand. For the two most important male supporting actors, Huang Xiaoming's comprehensive strength is not enough; for the remaining supporting roles, he is even less suitable.

"Hey, are you so sure?" Zhou Xun was quite stubborn.

"Yeah, that's for sure."

Lin Nan handed the brown sugar water to Liu Yifei, who held it in the palm of her hand and smiled sweetly.

…

The industry is indeed very restless right now. The starring cast of "The Great Wall" has been revealed for the first time. It is indeed a top team and makes all the actors excited!

But at the same time, a series of "no" calls were also made to artists or their agents and assistants in the industry who were confident, nervous, excited, or uneasy, including many top celebrities!

"Director Zhang, I am Ziyi..."

When the assistant told Zhang Ziyi that she had been dismissed, the latter couldn't accept it from the bottom of her heart.

In her opinion, "The Great Wall" can definitely help her return to Hollywood, and she doesn't want to lose this opportunity!

After thinking for a long time, she was still unwilling to give in, and immediately called Zhang Yimou himself.

But the result was not what she expected, and there was not even the slightest chance:

"You have also participated in Hollywood movies. Does the director have the final say in casting?"

In just one sentence, Zhang Ziyi's "hope" was completely shattered.

Of course she knew it wasn't the case. She went to see the producers of several of her foreign language films first, and she even deliberately made friends with Weinstein at one point.

"Teacher Zhang, has the heroine been decided yet?" Zhang Ziyi changed her title and asked the last question.

The person on the other end of the phone hesitated and said, "It's settled."

There was one thing Zhang Yimou wanted to say but didn't say, that is, the heroine was decided earlier than he, the director! All the actors who came to audition for the heroine were just going through the motions, and the outcome was already determined.

"I understand, thank you, Teacher Zhang."

…

The same is true for Shiba Culture, except that the two parties in the dialogue were replaced by Wang Jinghua and Zhu Yawen.

"From signing an artist to having the studio under the company's name, I would like to thank Sister Hua for taking care of me over the past ten years."

"Taking care of you? It's not so much me taking care of you, but Director Lin. Wang Jinghua is no longer the same Wang Jinghua she was before."

The former No. 1 agent in the Mainland is now a little lonely.

Just in the morning, she received a notice from China Film Group that Zhou Dongyu's audition had been canceled.

And half an hour ago, Zhou Dongyu came to her in person and made it clear to her that the contract would not be renewed after it expired.

Relying on her experienced experience, she used Zhou Dongyu's words, but the result she got made her even more uncomfortable.

Because the latter has not found a home yet, but even so, Zhou Dongyu still firmly chose not to renew his contract when it expires in the first half of next year!

As for Zhu Yawen's departure, Wang Jinghua has been waiting for this day for a long time.

Relying on her relationship with Lin Nan, Liu Yifei and others, Zhu Yawen has no worries about resources and connections.

"Sister Hua is joking. I was still a newcomer at the time, and you took care of me a lot." Zhu Yawen said politely.

Wang Jinghua smiled and was no longer polite:

"In the last two months, the company will hold a farewell party for you. By the way, do Director Lin and the others know that you want to run your own studio?"

"I haven't said it yet. It won't be too late to say it later."

"Why didn't you try "The Great Wall"?" Wang Jinghua suddenly thought of this.

"Haha, Director Lin and Producer Liu are also going, so I'll follow them..." Zhu Yawen's eyes flashed with a hint of cunning.

…………

The imported blockbusters "Maze Runner" and "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" were released in the last three days of the month.

Not to mention how strong these two movies are, they can outperform recent domestic movies.

Especially Liu Shishi's "Five Minutes Before Night" was so terrible that it was ridiculed by people on the Internet. There were even many press releases saying that she was the most famous of the four actresses with "zero box office appeal"!

It's right to think about it. After 8 days of release, the daily box office dropped to 450,000.

It is estimated that it will be canceled in the next two days, and the total box office will most likely not reach eight figures, and the film studio will vomit blood!

Leaning against the door frame of Liu Yifei's boudoir, Lin Nan quietly watched her dressing up.

Miss Liu does it herself, always as simple as possible.

She wears light makeup, a round head, and a sporty and casual style; she does not wear any jewelry for decoration, only a women's watch, which reflects her simplicity and sophistication. That’s today’s look!

"Matt didn't ask us to take him around, so I specially invited him to attend today's celebration party yesterday." Lin Nan looked at the time and said.

"Ah? You are really good at arranging. He has made it clear that he is the leading actor of "The Great Wall", so he must not be surrounded today?" Miss Liu turned around and rolled her eyes at Lin Nan with a smile.

"Surround us if you want. It's an open secret. I guess China Film Group will announce the results in the next two days."

After another twenty minutes, Liu Yifei completely finished her makeup, picked up her bag, took Lin Nan in her arms and walked out.

…

In the film and television industry, as long as they are first-line actors and stars in the capital, basically all came to attend the celebration banquet of "Heart Blossoms" today. Anyone who didn't come was not invited.

Everyone came here for the two great directors Ning Hao and Lin Nan!

Colleagues in the industry who came to support the movie know very well that "Beautiful Heart" is one of the most profitable movies so far this year.

It is unclear whether Lin Nan Pictures will make more money from "The Road to Flowers" or from "Take the Tiger Mountain by Wisdom"!

The celebration banquet was hosted by Bad Monkey, so Ning Hao came over very early with the main creators, but Xu Zheng didn't come because he was still filming "囧".

At the venue, Huang Bo, Zhang Ziyi, Huang Xiaoming, Li Bingbing and others were all talking to Matt Damon.

The people he talked to the most were Zhang Ziyi and Li Bingbing. After all, they both worked in Hollywood, and the two of them were a bit reluctant to give in to each other.

"Brother Hua is here."

I don't know who shouted something, and many people's eyes noticed Liu Dehua who had just walked in.

The latter smiled and said, "Director Ning, congratulations on becoming a 1.3 billion director."

"Brother Hua, you're welcome. Please come here. Lin Nan and the others haven't... arrived yet!"

Lin Nan and Liu Yifei arrived just in time.

"Director Lin, Yifei."

"Director Lin, Yifei."

…

Matt had a good chat with Li Bingbing there, and after waving to Lin Nan and Liu Yifei from a distance, he didn't come over.

Lin Nan walked straight to Ning Hao and the others, and Liu Dehua was also there.

"Brother Hua, are you sure?"

This endless question made Ning Hao a little confused, but Liu Dehua came to his senses.

He smiled and nodded, his voice a little soft:

"It's decided. I've been staying in the capital recently, waiting for the press conference and then going abroad to participate in some training.

Well, I can also attend the premiere event of Yifei's "Interstellar"... As for Hong Kong Island, I won't go back for now, it's been a bit chaotic recently. "

When Liu Dehua said this, Ning Hao also heard it, "It's settled", referring to "The Great Wall"!

As for what Andy Lau said about Hong Kong Island being a bit chaotic recently? Lin Nan, Liu Yifei and Ning Hao all knew that it was quite chaotic.

Celebrities in the Hong Kong circle were divided into camps because of this and started scolding each other.

There is a camp that fears that the world will not be in chaos; a camp that cannot stand it and fights with reason; and the final silent camp!

Many Hong Kong stars with crooked butts were all exposed this time. I have to say, I hid it really well before!

Jackie Chan, Chen Baixiang and others couldn't stand it, and they criticized those people and those behaviors, but it was useless. Instead, they were arbitrarily insulted.

I heard that Wang Jingdu publicly announced that he had broken off diplomatic relations with those Hong Kong celebrities whose buttocks were exposed. He is still very conscious and has a correct attitude!

Next, mainland film and television companies will need to pay attention and "default ban" certain Hong Kong stars!

…

Inside the huge ice cube was a card with the words "1.308 billion" written on it. The leaders were Ning Hao and Lin Nan, followed by Xing Aina and Liu Yifei.

With a hammer breaking the ice cubes, the celebration party of "Heart Blossom Road" officially begins!
