That year Huayu

I don’t know when it started, but those celebrities who opened studios especially like to “show off” their year-end bonuses to their employees on Weibo and WeChat Moments.

Of course, those who can show off are all first-line actors and celebrities who are generous and domineering in the circle.

Look, the entertainment headlines this morning are about Huang Xiaoming and Yang Ying giving two million-level luxury cars and many famous watches, jewelry and cash red envelopes to their respective teams.

Well, there are also indispensable boxes of Qingdao prawns. This is also one of the gifts that Huang Xiaoming must give every time he gives gifts.

Lin Nan and Liu Yifei have received many times, especially during the Chinese New Year every year, and they can’t finish them all.

Every time they see a few boxes of prawns, seafood or red wine being delivered, they can’t help but sigh:

“Huang Xiaoming really has mastered the worldly affairs to the extreme, and the main point is perseverance!”

Near noon, the stars are shining.

The guest invitation letter from the Oscars ceremony was delivered to Jing Tian.

This was sent by Legendary Pictures and Universal Pictures, and was specially prepared for the Chinese main creative members of the "The Great Wall" crew.

"You are the heroine, so you are naturally indispensable. However, there are only three invitation letters from the entire "The Great Wall" crew in China." Lu Zheng said proudly.

Jing Tian's white fingers dyed with nail polish gently held the invitation letter. She looked up and asked speculatively: "Three? Then the other two should be Director Zhang and Brother Hua?"

"Well, it's Director Zhang Yimou and Liu Dehua. Others don't have that weight, right? Besides, the number of places that can be squeezed out there is also very limited.

Tiantian, you can prepare your dress in advance. It must be the most advanced. I will help you contact it later, and then go to choose..."

At this point, Lu Zheng paused again, and his eyes seemed to drift away:

"It is estimated that China Film and LeTV should have received the news, but I don't know if they will officially announce this Things? This is a big publicity stunt.

Although there are not many people in China who can be invited to attend the Oscars, there are some;

But there are definitely few who can be invited in the name of movies. This year and even next year's Oscars, "The Great Wall" is special! "

Lu Zheng's tone was a little excited, because according to the release plan of "The Great Wall", it will be released during the Lunar New Year this year;

Even if it cannot be released simultaneously around the world, it will definitely land in the North American film market before next year's Oscars;

Therefore, an invitation to the Oscars next year is definitely not a problem.

Jing Tian's dark eyes were shining with water, and for a moment they were full of longing and expectation.

China Film.

For La Peikang, this is undoubtedly good news that a long drought has finally come.

The A-level blockbuster co-produced by China and the United States with an investment of up to 150 million US dollars was invited to walk on the Oscar red carpet, and then faced the global media lens, expanding the scope of publicity to the international community...

Is this considered a new addition to the political achievements? Of course it is! Because it's called "The Great Wall"!

"Go and say hello to LeTV and send out a joint announcement."

La Peikang was in a good mood and instructed his secretary, who nodded in response.

"By the way, also contact Director Zhang Yimou and ask him to reserve a schedule for the team to go out. Well, try not to miss anyone."

"Okay, Mr. La."

Looking at the secretary who hurried out, La Peikang still couldn't hide his smile on his face, "The Great Wall, Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk... will all be this year."

...

"The Great Wall, a Sino-US co-production jointly produced by China Film, Universal Pictures, Legendary Pictures, and LeTV Pictures, has been confirmed to be invited to attend the 88th Academy Awards red carpet and awards dinner... Director Zhang Yimou, Jing Tian, ​​and Liu Dehua will represent the Chinese creative staff..."

In the afternoon, the front-page headlines of the film and entertainment section and the top of the Weibo hot search list all suddenly became related information about "The Great Wall".

For this co-production, which has attracted the attention and envy of the entire domestic film and television entertainment industry since the project was launched;

Many big-name actors in the industry still feel a little heartbroken and regretful even at this moment.

Because these people are all insiders who failed in the competition and did not get this top-level big cake resource.

When they see the news at this moment, they will naturally "be moved by the scene". After all, a fake Oscar invitation last year was hyped up by Huang Shengyi;

What's more, the invitation to the real Oscar red carpet and awards dinner is in front of them, how can people not envy and jealous?

Lin Nan was speechless. There were not many serious tasks to deal with in the past two days, but there were a lot of miscellaneous small things that could not be pushed away, which was very annoying.

In the afternoon, he had to participate in another promotional event for "The Mermaid", and it was a competition.

Because another large conference hall in the World Trade Center was the press conference site of "The Man from Macau 3".

China Star and Bonanza are the main producers of "The Man from Macau 3", and the Xiang family father and son are also one of the main actors of this movie.

When the audition for "The Mermaid" was held, the fat lady had half of the Hong Kong circle targeting Zhou Xingchi, which naturally affected the movie audition.

If this is not a rival, what is it? From movies to reality, both sides are rivals, mortal enemies!

"Tsk tsk, the next door is talking about charity. The woman from the Xiang family said that they have donated a lot of money to the mainland over the years, and that 'Brother Fa' is talking about donating naked money after he dies."

Lin Nan originally thought that Ning Hao had fallen into the bathroom, but he didn't expect that he was listening at the next door for a while.

"Donate? Donate, yes, but have you noticed that every high-profile donation made by the couple does not change the public's impression of them at all?"

"Hey, don't tell me, it's true. Those two people always give people a utilitarian and purposeful attitude, and no one buys it." Ning Hao was happy and nodded in agreement.

"Let's talk about the person who wants to 'donate naked'. I remember he was saying this many years ago, right? Is it true that you donate naked only after the person is dead, and you don't get a dime while you are alive?"

Lin Nan laughed sarcastically and Ning Hao's eyes widened:

"Good guy, I wouldn't even have noticed if you didn't tell me. I really haven't heard much about him 'plucking his hair' for charity?!"

"It's all just routines and characters. In comparison, I still admire Jackie Chan more. He has promised to donate naked before, and he has been donating money to charity.

But after what happened to Prince Long the year before last, he publicly changed his tune and said that he wanted to leave some family assets for his son.

But look, did anyone scold him after he changed his tune? almost none! Because he is magnanimous and has been using his actions to prove that he is a charitable person! "

After Lin Nan finished speaking, he ignored Ning Hao's expression of affirmation and approval. He looked at the stage - Zhou Xingchi seemed to be making a promise too? !

"If the box office of "Mermaid" can reach more than 2 billion, I will consider a sequel plan; if the box office can be higher, then I guarantee that there will be a sequel, and I will still direct it..."

Everyone knows that Stephen Chow's film output is low, but this is the first time that he has publicly promised to make a sequel.

When all the media reporters at the scene heard this, they immediately became agitated and excited.

"Sequel? It's really rare." Ning Hao sighed.

"It's quite rare." Lin Nan replied meaningfully.

By the end of the afternoon, there was one more popular movie search online:

"Many commercial blockbusters for the Spring Festival, such as "Macau 3", "The Mermaid", and "Three Dozens of Bone Demons", all aim at 2 billion. Who can get what they want and come out on top..."

…

When he woke up in the morning, the temperature outside was minus two or three degrees Celsius, which made Lin Nan couldn't help but shiver. Coupled with the extremely dry air... he had to take good protection, otherwise his skin would definitely suffer.

Although he is a director and does not rely on his reputation to make a living, he was the first to go to the acting department, so he can't really ruin his image.

After "borrowing" some moisturizing and skin care products from Liu Yifei's dressing table, Director Lin went out with confidence.

There is only half a month left before New Year's Eve. Not only has the number of people at the Capital Airport increased dramatically, but the number of entertainment paparazzi and celebrities has also doubled several times.

When Lin Nan drove to the airport, there was a congestion at the exit.

There is a large group of young...fans, right? They were surrounded by celebrities who didn't know where they were coming from, making sharp noises and shouts.

The large number of paparazzi couldn't squeeze in, so they could only take blind photos with their cameras high.

Through the car window, Lin Nan stared for a long time. It was not until the uniformed traffic police came to disperse the crowd that he could see clearly.

What's quite unlucky is that the person Guan Xi praised not long ago is also accompanied by his mother.

In the past hour, six celebrity artists had left the airport, and they were all first- and second-tier celebrities. It was indeed the end of the year with many announcements.

At around 10:30, when Lin Nan glanced towards the exit, it was as if he had a premonition, not a minute earlier and not a minute later.

The figure walked out of the passage at the right time and came into view, exactly like in the photo sent.

Lin Nan couldn't help but laugh, because Liu Yifei really dressed like a rural girl.

The dark red down jacket is obviously old and a little too long, and there are long boots under the jeans, which does not show off his height and long legs;

The hood that came with the down jacket was fastened on her head, and the white mask covered most of her face. The most important thing is that she is not wearing sunglasses and is carrying a suitcase that is not too new.

Now the paparazzi have ruled out even the possibility that she is a celebrity in disguise.

This is undoubtedly a student girl who is too cold, doesn't know how to dress up, and goes to work in the city or goes home during the holidays!

Lin Nan didn't get out of the car because after Miss Liu locked the target, she walked over by herself.

It wasn't until she got closer that Director Lin got out of the car with a smile on his face.

"Still laughing?"

Liu Yifei rolled her eyes angrily, and Lin Nan hugged her into his arms.

She immediately changed her color and hugged him with a smile, "I'm finally back, hehe."

"Huh? Sissi, you've been eating well at home for more than half a month. Why do I feel like my butt is growing again?"

"No, absolutely not, I just wore one more piece. Oh, let go..."

Miss Liu pushed Lin Nan away and glared at him "viciously". After taking off the mask, her appearance became more delicate and a little cold.

Well, it’s true that I’m not plump anymore, and I won’t be able to do it for more than ten days.

At this moment, the paparazzi in the distance also noticed a special situation. Two big fish were missed!

"Hurry up and put your luggage in the car, we're chasing you over there."

"good."

Lin Nan picked up the suitcase and stuffed it into the back seat. In less than ten seconds, the two of them got into the driver's seat and the passenger's seat, closed the door, and sped off.

A group of entertainment reporters rushed to nothing, and could only watch helplessly as the rear of the car gradually disappeared from the end of the field of vision, and sighed helplessly.

…

"In the morning, Liu Yifei returned to Beijing alone with a suitcase, without an assistant following her throughout the journey; Director Lin Nan met her at the airport, and the two embraced each other intimately..."

"Liu Yifei was dressed simply at the airport, and she was free and easy, without any star airs, which is worthy of reference and learning by many artists in the industry."

In less than half an hour, the news and photos of the airport spread in the circle and on the Internet.

So many acquaintances called or sent messages to tease Liu Yifei, saying that entertainment reporters are also bullying the weak and afraid of the strong. They chose angles to report on the ugly clothes they wore, which was despised.

Lin Nan and Liu Yifei did not go home, but went directly to a private restaurant; it was almost noon, so of course it was important to eat.

However, Shu Chang, who was eating for free, arrived at the destination earlier than them. In a beautiful name, since they were late to meet at the airport, they would be embarrassed to be late for dinner!

Facing a whole table of dishes, the two women were very happy to eat and chat, after all, they hadn't seen each other for more than a month.

But Lin Nan was a little impatient, because the calls about serious matters always came in at inopportune times.

"Come over in the afternoon, the rough budget has been released, let's see how to divide the shares."

Wang Changtian is really a busy man, and he should be eating lunch in the office.

"Okay, I see. I'll hang up if there's nothing else, I'm eating."

"Okay."

Seeing Lin Nan hang up the phone, Liu Yifei asked curiously: "What movie does Guangguang want us to work on together?"

"Well, a literary comedy romance, "Passing Through Your World". It is a different story from the same novel as Alibaba Pictures' "The Ferryman."

Obviously, Miss Liu was not interested in this, and neither was Shu Chang, because neither of them asked further questions.

"Xixi, stay at home for another ten days, and we have to leave. On the 2nd of next month."

While picking up the chopsticks, Lin Nan also changed the subject. Liu Yifei wrinkled her nose, smiled shyly, and nodded.

"Hey~~ This is the first time I have followed my husband back to his hometown after becoming a new daughter-in-law." Shu Chang teased while picking up the dishes.

"Eat your dishes, you can't stop talking." Miss Liu had already started to "repair" her bestie without Director Lin saying anything.

However, Shu Chang became a little depressed during the quarrel: "The elders in my family got divorced some time ago, so I don't have to bother her to find resources in the future."

As soon as this sentence came out, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei immediately understood that Shu Chang should be talking about Song Zuer.

"Just take care of yourself, the two of us can only take care of you at most." Lin Nan said to himself, and Shu Chang understood.

"I remember seeing information about a movie yesterday, called "Los Angeles Trickster Plan", which seems to be released in mid-March?"

Liu Yifei looked at Shu Chang and asked. The heroine of this drama seems to be Song Zuer.

"Well, he asked me to help with promotion a few days ago. My uncle told me that we were strangers now and there was no need to sacrifice his personal relationship to help... He even called me and had a quarrel with me, and asked me not to bother him in the future..."

Well, the helpless Shu Chang from many years ago is back again. Lin Nan didn't say anything, leaving it to Liu Yifei.
