That year Huayu

After watching Song Yiren bow deeply and walk out of the conference room with an uneasy mood, Jiang Yuerou spoke up and expressed her opinion:

"Her acting skills should be considered good among students. But her height and appearance really have no advantage at all in costume dramas, and are even a flaw."

"Baby-faced, a bit short, it gives people the impression of being underage. Director Jiang is right, there is indeed no supporting role suitable for her in "Three Lives Three Worlds"."

Lin Nan yawned and confirmed Jiang Yuerou's statement.

"It's a bit awkward, but if there is a suitable script, others may have the opportunity to play the main role or the heroine in a costume drama.

Okay, let’s go to the next one. Well, level 13, Meng Ziyi? "

Liu Yifei looked through the audition information in front of her, and then asked her assistant to call people in.

"Huh? Or am I a fellow countryman? It's a pity that we are not from the same city." Shu Chang smacked his lips and muttered.

A minute later, when a girl walked in with the same awkwardness, Jiang Yuerou's eyes lit up and she nodded her head with satisfaction: This look is very suitable for a costume drama!

"Hello, Professor Lin, hello Producer Liu, and hello Producer Jiang."

"You should put me in the back, Producer Liu is the boss here!"

Lin Nan couldn't help but joked, and Liu Yifei smiled and gave him a proud eye roll, which was very sweet.

Jiang Yanrou and Shu Chang were also amused. Only Meng Ziyi, who was preparing for the audition in front of him, was a little embarrassed and stood there at a loss.

The acting department is very smart, and the Meng Ziyi in front of them is one of the students they put into Lin Nan's elective course. As for the reason, maybe it’s because he looks pretty good, right?

After all, this is the Nortel acting department, appearance is the most important!

"Relax, you have five minutes to prepare..."

At this moment, Liu Yifei inadvertently revealed her aura as a great producer and top actress, which was very impressive;

Meng Ziyi was in a daze for a moment, and then he clumsily took the "test questions" from his assistant.

From the outside world, a war of words is inevitable, because Huayi directly calls out names.

However, the first to "join the war" are always the audiences and fans who are accused of being scolded, as well as netizens who can't stand Feng Xiaogang's "bird-like" appearance.

"After so many years and so many great directors, only Feng Xiaogang has been publicly scolding the audience and movie fans time and time again. Do we owe him? Are we cheap?"

"He can fall out faster than he can read a book. He praises the audience when the box office is good, and scolds the audience when the box office is bad! Anyway, he must earn at least the same amount of word-of-mouth and box office, otherwise it will be the audience's fault!"

"After more than ten years, hasn't it become clear to everyone how thick-skinned he is, how shameless he is, and how adaptable his character is to the changing circumstances?"

"No wonder he can play the role of 'Old Pao'er'. Where is this acting? This is how his true colors show in the camera!"

"Director Feng is right, it was a bad movie in the first place. It's you people who paid for the trash that led to so many bad movies now..."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, director Gao Qunshu seems to have posted a message calling for a boycott of "Villain Angel"... Director Feng Xiaogang slipped and liked it?"

""Old Pao'er" was originally designed to defeat bad movies like "Bad Angel", but either Wu Yifan or Li Yifeng crushed Deng Chao..."

…

Light, publicity department conference room.

At this moment, Deng Chao is also here.

Unlike Wang Changtian, who had a gloomy face and seemed to be about to explode, he could only endure it with aggrieved expressions of extreme helplessness.

Because whether it is his qualifications, influence, connections in the industry, or the capital behind him, he is far inferior to Feng Xiaogang.

The good relationship he had with Huayi had completely disappeared since he never competed with Huang Xiaoming and then took the initiative to not renew the contract;

This time, the other side is even more direct in using dirty tricks...

"Director Wang, you can only do this kind of thing!"

"That's the truth. The Internet is in chaos, and everyone in the industry is watching the joke. We can't be cowardly. If we take a step back, our momentum will be weak. Those netizens, viewers, and movie fans who support us will have to scold us!"

"Director Wang must come in person. Only in this way can our aura not be weak and let the industry know our attitude..."

There were constant chatter of suggestions, and everyone present had very unified opinions, because everyone could see that this was what Director Wang meant.

"In the first week, our box office will definitely beat Huayi's. This is determined by the nature of the movie.

In the second week, haha, "Detective Chinatown" will be released... "Old Paoer"? I want the box office, and I also want the attitude! "

Wang Changtian said coldly, and then looked at Deng Chao, "Don't worry, with Hua Yi, this time it's not over!"

…

It can only be said that today's entertainment news has caused a sensation in the entire film and television industry.

But these two movies only involve two giants, and at most they involve the small company of Deng Chao;

Therefore, colleagues in the industry are almost all waiting and watching with the mentality of watching the excitement and even hoping that both parties will lose.

All the actors and entertainers in the industry, including all the other main actors in the two movies except Feng Xiaogang, Deng Chao and Sun Li, stayed away for fear of being exposed.

Of course, the two fans of Xiaoxianrou put their "idols" in front; these two people are destined to not be able to escape!

It was approaching 11:30 in the morning, while Liu Yifei and Jiang Yuerou were inside auditioning for the role of Song Yi, Lin Nan came out for some air.

Amid greetings from a group of young faces, he went downstairs and was surrounded by media reporters... He was still squatting?

"What? Say it again."

Lin Nan was stunned and asked in astonishment, wanting to confirm again.

"Director Lin, what do you think about the quarrel between Wang Dong of Guangguang and Feng Xiaogang?"

"What do I think? I have been auditioning all morning, what can I watch? Where do I have time to watch?!"

Lin Nan asked several questions in a row, and immediately confused the reporters. It seems so, Director Lin has been busy here all morning? !

After dealing with the media in a few words, Lin Nan did not go to the meeting room after returning to Hongxingwu, but sat in Liu Yifei's pink office and read the news.

"Good guy, scolding the audience again?

Tsk tsk tsk, Director Wang is strong! This wave of fierceness..."

Lin Nan "relished" gossiping.

A little after nine o'clock, Feng Xiaogang opened fire.

Near 11 o'clock, Wang Changtian publicly responded:

"What is 'old gun'? It is a clear derogatory term! It refers to the old ruffians, hooligans, gangsters, and scoundrels, who often go in and out of prisons and detention centers as if it were commonplace.

A movie that whitewashes and praises old ruffians, old gangsters, old gangsters, and old scoundrels, isn't it really a distorted world view? Why go to the cinema to watch such a movie?

What about the rivers and lakes, loyalty, feelings, singles, and fights? Solve problems with the rules of old guns? Where does this put the law? It's all during the crackdown period !

What's more, the movie "Old Cannon" is still insulting the word "old cannon", because Feng Xiaogang, the protagonist, is not even at the level of "old cannon", at most he is a "parasite" with no future and complains about everything.

Finally, don't get angry if you can't compare to others at the box office and can't afford to lose; after so many years, you still have this face, no one owes you anything! Now the box office is not good, and it will only die more miserably and ugly when it encounters "Detective Chinatown" later..."

Lin Nan knocked his hand on his forehead and couldn't help laughing.

Feng Xiaogang smashed Guangguang's pot, and Wang Changtian directly dug up Huayi's roots - on the standpoint, on the three views, the key is that it can't be refuted, it's really funny!

"8.3 million..."

When he saw this number, the smile on Lin Nan's face suddenly withdrew; the next second, he couldn't help but sigh, it seems that it is really impossible.

Not only him, but also China Film is talking about this matter at the moment.

"A good 2 billion, but it's visible but intangible."

Han Sanping complained speechlessly. He really looked down on La Peikang's behavior of not trying to fight for it at all.

Even if it can fight for four more days, that is, until the last day of this month, "The Lost Tomb" will have more than 90% chance of crossing the 2 billion box office mark.

"It's a pity. I guess Wang Changtian is also scolding it, but the quarrel with Huayi is the most important. Haha..." Ren Zhonglun continued to say sarcastically.

"Why not buy it?"

La Peikang frowned and said an idea that shouldn't be said.

"Come on, are you slapping Lin Nan in the face? He has publicly criticized Anle Films for inflating the box office before, and now you are going to inflate the box office for the movie controlled by Lin Nan Films?"

Han Sanping was very contemptuous, and then looked at the time, "Okay, I should go back too, Jia Nu is still waiting for me to have lunch."

"Then I will go to your place to sit... The bureau will have a meeting at the end of the year, and it will take several days..."

Ren Zhonglun followed closely behind, he and La Peikang had nothing to say, and it didn't matter if they didn't eat the meal at China Film.

Looking at the two figures going away, La Peikang still frowned, and didn't say anything to keep them, so it's up to you.

Outside the China Film Academy, Ren Zhonglun "ridiculed":

"I said that if Old Han does this, China Film Academy will sooner or later become disunited. Who will still follow China Film Academy? Haha, but this is a good thing for us Shanghai Film Academy."

Hearing this, Han Sanping's face instantly turned sour, but he opened his mouth and couldn't say anything to refute, and finally nodded helplessly:

"China Film Academy, which can't help its subordinates and partners, is what's the difference between it and ordinary film and television capital? There is really no difference..."

...

The auditions in the afternoon were to start at two o'clock. Lin Nan, Liu Yifei, Shu Chang, and Jiang Xingrou found a high-end restaurant nearby to reward everyone in Hongxingwu.

"To be honest, Song Yi from the Central Academy of Drama's acting is okay, but I always feel that it lacks taste. It doesn't make people feel bright when it is put into a costume fantasy drama."

Jiang Xingrou picked up the dishes and said to Liu Yifei, Lin Nan and the others.

"That Meng Ziyi is not bad, although his acting is so-so, his brain doesn't seem to be able to turn around, and he speaks carelessly... but he should be good enough to play a supporting role in a costume myth drama."

Shu Chang couldn't help but express her opinion. Among the dozen actors in the morning, she thought this one had the best appearance, but his acting was poor.

"It seems that he is a bit nervous."

Liu Yifei smiled and nodded, and naturally "took" the shrimp meat peeled in Lin Nan's hand. Everything was so natural.

"So?"

Lin Nan was very sure that he must not be in the meeting room for the audition at that time.

Jiang Xingrou looked at Liu Yifei hesitantly: "Yifei, what do you mean?"

Miss Liu raised her head, and there was a slightly thoughtful expression on her delicate face;

She glanced at Lin Nan and Shu Chang, and then nodded seriously: "Okay."

"Then decide on her and give her a supporting role?" Jiang Xingrou confirmed again.

"Well, count her in, so that the college won't always nag."

Liu Yifei, the producer, nodded and threw a proud wink at Lin Nan.

…

Afternoon, Huayi.

Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei tacitly agreed with Feng Xiaogang's public attack on the Internet this morning;

Because this is not only Feng Xiaogang's usual style, but also really good for "Old Cannon".

"We and Guangguang are not the same people. After a series of "propaganda" by those teams and Xiaogang's voice, the public opinion on the Internet is now in our favor.

What about the "old guns" with incorrect values? How many viewers will really care about and understand these?

In their cognition, only "Bad Angels" is a "bad movie" and a "trash movie" that will leave the deepest impression, because it is easy to remember and does not require brainpower!"

Wang Zhonglei took over Wang Zhongjun's words and smiled confidently:

"Many directors and filmmakers have already supported us and stood in line. Judging from the feedback on the Internet in the past half day, the effect is very good."

"Don't stop the press release, bite off as much meat as possible!"

"Okay, big brother. But Wang Changtian mentioned Lin Nan's "Detective Chinatown", will he get involved?

Before, we have dragged down the application for the extension key of "Mojin: The Lost Tomb"!" Wang Zhonglei was a little worried.

"Isn't this not a matter of no involvement? I heard that they are casting in Hongxingwu. Let's wait and see. Hopefully..."

When Wang Zhongjun said this, he was a little unsure.

...

The audition was still going on. Lin Nan was just a companion, watching Liu Yifei and Jiang Xingrou busying themselves there;

Shu Chang would occasionally interject and express her opinions. After all, she had acted in many costume dramas and mythological dramas, so she had a say.

Lan Yingying, who graduated from the Central Academy of Drama and was recommended by the Central Academy of Drama teachers to Lin Nan and Liu Yifei, and was admitted to the People's Art Theater with the first place, was also rejected after her senior sister Song Yi in the morning.

It must be admitted that this is a very hard-working actress and she has acting skills, but her appearance is obviously hard, and she won't look good in costume; and the requirements for the appearance of actors in "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms" are a bit high! We can only say that we will see if there is a chance for cooperation in the future.

"Hello, Producer Liu, Hello, Director Lin..."

Looking at Nazha in front of them, Lin Nan, Liu Yifei and Jiang Xingrou couldn't help but smile silently.

This is from Beijing Film Academy, and she looks good, but...it's really a "bad fate", she rejected Yue Jun at the beginning.

Tangren.

Cai Yinong's expression changed from a blank face to slowly "awake".

"Are you saying that Nazha and Chen Yao both went to Hongxingwu for the audition?"

"Yes, they reported to the company before, and the audition time for both of them is this afternoon.

And they both graduated from Beijing Film Academy, so they have an advantage this time. I heard that Producer Liu had publicly promised before that he would use people from Beijing Film Academy..."

Hearing the secretary's particularly affirmative answer, Cai Yinong was surprised and a little lonely.

The company is getting harder and harder now, and it has been unable to produce any good resources for a long time.

Hu Ge was fine, as he had made some connections outside;

Let’s not talk about Liu Shishi. Since she hooked up with Wu Qilong, she has not been on the same page with Tangren, and she has also used the marketing routines she learned in the company very well... Now she is just waiting for the contract to expire.

As for the other artists, they are really struggling.

“Notify me immediately if you have any news.”

“Okay, Mr. Cai.”

Watching the secretary leave, Cai Yinong frowned; she didn’t think the success rate of the two artists in her company was very high, it should be very low...

In Hongxingwu, Nazha was undoubtedly eliminated.

Because there is already a Reba in the play, there is no need for a second "competitor".

“Chen Yao?”

“It’s me, Director Jiang. Hello, Producer Liu, Hello, Professor Lin.”

Lin Nan also sat up straight, another one in his elective class.

“I’ve seen your role in the web drama, it’s very good.” Shu Chang, who was sitting next to Liu Yifei, commented with a smile.

“Teacher Shu Chang praised you, it’s been a while.”

Chen Yao hurriedly thanked him, very politely. Shu Chang, who debuted as a child star and has many works and good acting skills, deserves to be called "teacher".

"Try this audition topic, villain."

Liu Yifei took out a note from the folder with a playful expression and handed it to the assistant.

...

Light, Wang Changtian has called Lin Nan several times, but he has never been able to get through.

In the morning, he responded to Feng Xiaogang and Huayi's Weibo, but he mentioned Lin Nan's "Detective Chinatown".

He thought, just let Lin Nan help. Who made Huayi also weird about "Mojin" a few days ago? Let's kill "Old Cannon" together!

"Is this Hongxingwu equipped with a signal jammer?"

Wang Changtian complained while hanging up the sixth call.

"Director Lin should be afraid of being disturbed, so he turned on the flight mode?"

Yue Jun smiled apologetically on the side. He brought people here in the afternoon to discuss matters related to the premiere and the celebration banquet.

China Film Group and Shanghai Film Group are far apart, one has a distant relationship, the other is far away;

Ye Ning from Wanda said it was up to him, so Lin Nan Film and Guangguang had to negotiate and plan the on-site process.

"The day after tomorrow night, the CPPCC auditorium, first the premiere, then the celebration banquet and dinner! Xie Nan is the host... I will ask Guangguang people to assist."

"Okay, that's it."

...

There were differences on the issue of Chen Yao.

Jiang Yuerou felt that he was from the Tang Dynasty, and the reputation of the Tang Dynasty in the industry was not very good, and he was even ostracized. He could give it or not, but it was best not to give it.

Shu Chang felt that there was so much emphasis on it, it was just a supporting role, so just give it to him if it suits him.

As for Lin Nan, what did he say?

When "Wuxin Master" was aired before, Yue Jun also expressed regret to him, saying that the Tang people had found a treasure, but it was precisely because of the Tang people that it was a pity that a seedling was lost.

Furthermore, Chen Yao is indeed a student in Lin Nan's class.

"Sissi, what do you think? You are the boss of Hongxingwu and the producer of "Three Lives, Three Worlds and Ten Miles of Peach Blossom"!"

Hearing this, Liu Yifei glanced at Lin Nan and said, "In the acting department, maybe just these two. They seem to be classmates?"

"Well, he is a classmate of the same class. He is a grade 13 student at Nortel, which is 11 grades lower than the two of you."

Shu Chang interjected with a smile, but suddenly his smile faded: "Why does it sound like the three of us are old? But we are obviously still very young!"

"It's not that we are older, it's that they are too young, only 20 years old! And you and Sissi both debuted very early." Lin Nan knocked Shu Chang, but she wrinkled her nose and glared.

"Yifei, do you mean to settle her?" Jiang Yuerou asked.

"Let's decide, they are the only current students at Nortel." Liu Yifei made the decision again, full of aura!

As five o'clock approached in the afternoon, the third actor and actress who was chosen on the first day of the audition was born:

Grade 14 in Chinese Opera Performance Department, Kang Ke. This is the girl who left an impression on Lin Nan and Liu Yifei when they went to China Theater to promote "Detective Chinatown" last time.

At early five o'clock, the audition actors left one after another, and there were not even a few media reporters left.

Lin Nan, Liu Yifei, Shu Chang, and Jiang Yuerou can finally get off work.

"Let's go, have a day off tomorrow, and continue the day after tomorrow!" Miss Liu drove when she came, and when she returned home, it was Lin Nan.

"Sissi, I'll go find you tomorrow."

"Well, okay, I'll wait for you."

Cars abreast, Shu Chang and Liu Yifei waved to make an agreement.

…

After more than an hour's drive, including traffic jams, Director Lin Da and Producer Liu finally arrived home.

Throwing down her bag, Liu Yifei went straight to her room to change clothes and take a shower.

Lin Nan was forced to answer the "harassing phone calls" in the living room on the first floor.

"You answered the phone! Damn it, I'm so angry today. Have you seen the news?"

"See, it's rare for Mr. Wang to be irritable. I just said to Yifei on the way back that the simplest business war is like this, just go up and scold! Haqia..."

Lin Nan couldn't help it anymore. Wang Changtian and Hua Yi were the focus of the entire circle today.

"Those two idiots in Huayi have no intention of stopping at all. When it comes to playing Internet trolls, the lighting is indeed inferior to them. Our advantage lies in radio and television!

Lin Nan, do something with him? One of the main competitors of "Detective Chinatown" should be "Old Paoer".

Movies like "Bad Angels" are all about first-week box office, and there's no way it could overlap with "Chinatown." That guy Wang Zhonglei grossed us out at the movie press conference last time! "

Facing classmate Lao Wang's "kind" invitation, not to mention, Lin Nan was a little moved.

Otherwise, give him a stabbing blow? Did you also blame him once?

"Director Wang has been on the phone all afternoon, is he just waiting for me here?" Lin Nan complained with a smile.

Hearing this tone, Wang Changtian immediately understood that Lin Nan had agreed.

"As you say, we are in the same camp! Especially "Detective Chinatown", which is your first commercial film after winning three international awards from the end of last year to the beginning of this year. Although it is your first time to deal with this kind of subject matter, The box office will definitely not be low, so we have to pay attention to it, right?”

"Okay, that makes sense."

Two minutes later, Lin Nan hung up the phone. He sat there, holding the tablet, and started to finish off the damage with a smile:

“After a busy day of auditions and casting with Producer Liu at Hongxingwu, I just came back and saw today’s online film and television entertainment headlines and focus information. I really learned a lot.

We are all decent people, but we still use this disgraceful method of public opinion warfare? That means going straight to the stage and publicly belittling a competitor's movie!

I think I should have learned it. Do you want to use it when "Detective Chinatown" is released on the 31st of this month, which is also the last day of this year?

For example, let me publicly address the competitors of "Detective Chinatown". I am using an analogy. Please do not bring it into reality:

Let's take "Old Paoer" as an example. Can I also post on Weibo at that time and shout: ""Old Paoer" is really rubbish. It is a rubbish movie with incorrect views. Everyone should watch it." "Detective Chinatown"! ’ By the way, it should be possible to operate like this, right? After all, there is a precedent for today!

In addition, I promise that I will not call the audience trash and at the same time 'order' the audience to pay the box office... My character should be trustworthy! "

At around seven o'clock in the evening, Director Lin Da's "last strike" Weibo was updated!
