Chapter 1115 Arrangements for Xiao Han; One person achieves enlightenment, a chicken and a dog ascend to heaven
“This is just an outline of the script. You can complete it and complete the script. After that, I can invest and you will be the director to direct this movie. , it can also be regarded as your debut as a film director."
Lin Nan looked at Han Jianu, who was still in a stunned state, and smiled and snapped her fingers in front of her eyes. Then he joked to Han Sanping: "Director Han, is your daughter stupid?"
"This is too sudden for you."
Han Sanping smiled and shook his head, but there was a look in his eyes. Bright but unabashed. No matter what his daughter thinks, he is very willing to let Han Jia Nyeo accept it.
Because if a "newcomer" wants to direct an excellent theater movie, the difficulty is far from being as simple as it seems on the surface.
This not only requires funds and movie scripts, but also requires a large and complete team to support;
From project preparation to location selection, from filming and production to The announcement of the release also includes the overall planning and consideration of the entire crew during the operation stage, and even the final profit risk...
There are problems in all aspects, which greatly affects the enthusiasm and enthusiasm of the "newcomers". But these problems are not a problem for Lin Nan.
Also, despite the fact that Ren Zhonglun always joked about investing in movies for Han Jianu in the past, Han Sanping knew that this was all a joke and it was impossible for Shanghai Film to pass.
Therefore, at this moment, this is indeed Han Jia's opportunity, so much so that Han Sanping himself wants to speak up and accept it for her, but he knows that he cannot do this.
"Brother Lin, didn't you just ask me a few days ago? I already said that now I just want to finish "The God of Medicine" first...and I have no experience, so if I mess it up , what should I do if I lose..."
This is the first time Lin Nan has seen Han Jianu, who is submissive and somewhat ladylike, and she feels really strange for a moment. But he could also see that classmate Xiao Han was slightly tempted.
"You first work on the script slowly, and after the filming of "The God of Medicine" is completed, you can devote yourself wholeheartedly to the film project of "The Unknown Man".
You don't have to I'm afraid of losing money if I screw up. This type of subject is typically shot with a small and medium-sized budget of tens of millions. Don't you have that much confidence? This is not like the Han Jia Nyeo I know!"
< br>
Speaking of this, Lin Nan paused for a moment. He glanced at Han Jianu, who was looking at him eagerly, and then glanced at Han Sanping aside, and then a "malicious" smile appeared on his face:
"You said that you have no experience in directing films independently. Well, isn't this a retired great director? He has plenty of free time and energy.
So, let your dad do it for you Let's start. While being your film producer, he will also work as an assistant director to assist you.
Of course, he will only give you a few words when you have a headache. Too much interference in your directorial debut. The crew and shooting can only be controlled by you. Only in this way can it be your work!"
After Lin Nan finished speaking, Han Sanping also started to curse. But it wasn't because of anger, but because he was "set up" by Lin Nan again, and he could only admit it through gritted teeth.
"You are so shameless. Just like in "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom", you asked a beautiful girl to tell me something, and I was sure that I couldn't refuse!"
"Hey, Director Han praised me, This is for your daughter I'm carrying a sedan chair. And I have to spend tens of millions of real money to get in, let alone a team. Isn't it safer if I add you?"
Mr. Han glared fiercely. Director Lin glanced at him and thought He laughed angrily, and then said seriously to Han Jianu:
"Jianu, Lin Nan has already given you all the considerations. What are your thoughts now? You need to know the domestic industry. , it’s a director-centered system after all!”
Han Jianyu’s eyes glanced back and forth between her father and Director Lin, with an eager expression on her face: “Shall I give it a try?”
"Okay, let's give it a try." Mr. Han's worried heart finally fell to the ground, and he was very happy.
"Brother Lin, will you name me as a producer when the time comes? Even though it's my first movie, I also want to have a good box office, right? You're a good person and you'll do it to the end, please."
Facing Han Jia's "soft and weak" pleading look, Lin Nan had goosebumps a little bit, "Can you please be normal? My heart can't bear it."
Besides, Mr. Han's face was already covered with frost, just because of Xiao Han's words " "Lin Nan's ambition will destroy his father's prestige": Doesn't his being a producer help the box office? Lin Nan is the producer?
……
The three days of the 9th, 10th, and 11th ended, and "Operation Mekong" has been released for two weeks.
On the morning of the 12th, the entire Chinese film industry saw the dazzling figure of 2.224 billion.
At the same time, "Operation Mekong", the first shot of this year's Lunar New Year film, continues to attack cities and destroy villages; in comparison, other movies seem extremely "small".
Er Dongsheng's "The Sword of the Third Young Master" has been in theaters for 10 days, and it's completely gone. The daily box office revenue was zero, and it could only end with a final score of 50 million.
However, Zhang Mo’s directorial debut performed well, earning 72 million in the first three days of the weekend. It turns out that there is always a market for chick flicks.
During the schedule, the more than two dozen Chinese-language cannon fodder movies are not included. As for those external films:
"Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" was released with 420 million..."Moana" was released with 180 million... "Your Name" lasted 10 days with a total box office revenue of 500 million, but it has already declined...
"The circle has been criticizing it since yesterday morning. Well, it hasn't stopped yet. Your "Operation Mekong" can't wait to be postponed for a month, which has made many competitors break their guard!"
Hua Yi is working on "The Demise of Romance"! 》premiere, and Lin Nan’s house was also having a dinner party; Zhou Xun couldn’t help but talk about the situation at the premiere, where she signed in and ran over.
"Let me listen, who is scolding? I will write them down in a small book one by one, and return them slowly." Lin Nan flipped the meat skewers on the grill and sprinkled the condiments on them. , while joking.
"Then you probably need to prepare a thicker notebook. Hold on to the Huayi series first and let them return it."
"Unfortunately, this is saved, because Wanda will do it for you." Liu Yifei Shu Chang joked next to him while holding a plate of vegetarian dishes, while Shu Chang stared at the grill intently.
Over in the wine cellar, Zhu Yawen spent a long time choosing, probably having trouble choosing again. Wu Gan ran to urge him, but the result was that the drunkard entered the wine cellar. Fortunately, Lin Nan didn't have Maotai here.
Xie Nan and Tang Yan were setting up dishes not far away. In addition to barbecue, there was also hot pot, which was perfect for the weather in December.
“Tsk, tsk, you really won’t stop until you die.”
Zhou Xun sighed sadly. Since the day "Pan Jinlian" was released last month, the entire industry has known about Wanda's attitude. It seems that "The Death of Romance" is definitely not saved!
"Director Lin, is your phone vibrating?" Suddenly, Tang Yan shouted from a distance, and Lin Nan's phone was indeed placed on the table over there.
"I'll get it for you." Shu Chang responded and trotted over.
Lin Nan also temporarily handed over the task of turning over strings to Zhou Xun, and joked to Xie Nan: "Host, go see your Director Wu, don't get drunk. In the wine cellar."
"He shouldn't be that embarrassed, right?" Xie Nan stood up with a smile and walked quickly from the garden to the villa. Taking the mobile phone from Shu Chang, it was Wang Wei's number. Lin Nan immediately walked to the pavilion, "Mr. Wang, tell me, what's the matter?"
"Director Lin, your memory is not very good, isn't it? It was you who told you to call you when the shares for internal subscription before the listing can be allotted. Why did you forget? Haha... "
Yes, Lin Nan remembered it instantly after Wang Wei reminded her.
This is the stock he and Liu Yifei prepared for Shu Chang and several others. It is equivalent to the Huayi stock he got for 3 yuan per share before Huayi went public that year.
Lin Nan and Liu Yifei will definitely do it if one person can achieve the goal of a chicken or a dog ascending to heaven, because they are both lay people with emotions and desires, as well as relatives and friends.
"These two days?"
"It's not these two days, it's next month. This was just decided during the morning meeting. Director Lin, please have someone prepare the funds and go directly to the company next month Come to sign a contract, it’s ordinary stocks..."
Hung up the phone before Lin Nan could take two steps. Well, another person came in, this time from ICBC, "Hello?"
"Director Lin, all the procedures have been completed. I will personally deliver the documents to you."
>"Thank you. There is no need to come in person, you can just have someone send it to my company..."
Funds, lawyers, and notary office staff, these are the most important things that the three parties must prepare in advance when Lin Nan goes to Weibo on the 20th!
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, after Zhou Xun, Wu Gan, and Xie Nan left one after another, Liu Yifei spoke to the remaining three people, Shu Chang, Zhu Yawen, and Tang Yan:
"You guys go back and get ready, next time Yue Tudou will notify you. Tangtang, please take the time to call Luo Jin in the next two days."
"It's finally here, hehe..." Shu Chang smiled and narrowed his eyes. , holding Liu Yifei’s arm and shaking it.
“No problem!”
"Well, I will call Luo Jin tonight to talk about it."
...
As the time enters its third week, the daily box office of "Operation Mekong" has also dropped to 8 Around ten million.
At this point, theaters have long since stopped thinking about the box office betting agreement, because the high box office of the movie forces them to ensure that the film is scheduled.
This situation is undoubtedly very unfair to the films behind the Lunar New Year schedule; only those two or three films related to big directors can be spared, and the schedule of the remaining films can only continue to be reduced.
But there is no way. The Lunar New Year holiday is a battlefield, and it is life and death. If one person eats one more bite, the other person will starve, or even starve to death. No one will sympathize.
Enlight should be regarded as the most comfortable listed company in the film industry. Since the first half of last year, it has "defaulted" to completely contract the distribution business of all Lin Nan Films' films.
You must know that in the past, the distribution business of films directed by Lin Nan was generally handled exclusively by China Film; as for the distribution of other films by Lin Nan Pictures, China Film would also be more or less involved. Feet, until...
“Thank you, Mr. La, for making Guangguang’s annual report beautiful. It's a big deal, and it will be like this every year. I'm looking forward to blockbusters like "Pacific Rim 2", "The God of Medicine" and "The Wandering Earth".
Oh, by the way, your company has already produced them this year. Finished the later "Marriage Story" and "Second Generation Fairy", haha..."
Wang Changtian smiled so wildly that Lin Nan didn't even bother to pour cold water on him; while Wang Baoqiang's smile looked a little tired.
That’s right, Wang Baoqiang completely ruined himself during a movie promotion road show and he has been hanging on a bottle for two days. As for the promotional schedule, it was naturally stopped by Lin Nan and Wang Changtian.
In fact, to put it bluntly, if it was just for the box office of the movie, "Havoc in Tianzhu" really does not need such vigorous publicity, because Wang Baoqiang has his own "sympathy card"!
"The only competitors to "Havoc in Tianzhu" are Zhou Xingchi and Xu Ke's "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons", Jackie Chan's "Kung Fu Yoga" and Han Han's "Riding the Wind and Waves";
< br>As for other films before and after the Spring Festival, don’t worry about them at all, just focus on these three. In addition, the promotion plan must also be changed.”
Back to the topic, Lin Nan warned Wang Baoqiang quite seriously; the latter had no choice but to smile and nod, "Well, change it, I happen to be in the capital to accompany my mother."
Hearing this, Lin Nan Nan and Wang Changtian fell silent immediately. Because the hospital has given Wang Baoqiang permission to say that he won't be able to survive for a few years.
I have to say that he is indeed "strong". In just four months, he suffered two major disasters!
......
"In the morning, Lin Nan Pictures released the final casting list for the movie "I'm Not the God of Medicine". The starring actors include the following: Xu Zheng, Zhou Yiwei, Wang Chuanxuan, Bai Bing, Zhang Yu, Jin Shijie, Chen Minghao, Ni Nai..."
"Lin Nan Pictures, director Jiang Yuerou revealed in an interview with the media that the movie "I'm Not the God of Medicine" will have many 'big names in the industry' participating in guest starring roles; the specific details are not disclosed at the moment, and we look forward to the audience's announcement in the theater..."
On the morning of the 14th, "I'm Not the God of Medicine" officially announced its main creative lineup.
No one expected that Mou Girl and Lin Nan’s first collaboration would become a hot topic in film and television entertainment news, with high levels of discussion and topics.
So much so that Zhang Yimou noticed it and even called Ni Na specially.
"Actually, I recommended you to him at the beginning, but there were more objective problems at that time... Fortunately, you are now in contact with his circle."
"Thank you, teacher. I'm very content with how things are now."
After a brief chat, Zhang Yimou hung up the phone. He looked at Zhang Mo in the office: "After Zhang Ziyi, actually Ni Na is my favorite.”
"Is that why I chose her for "28 Years Old Minor"?" Zhang Mo said with a smile, but then he became serious again, "Dad, have you made your decision?"
The office was quiet, Zhang Yimou looked serious and remained silent.
After a long time, he seemed to have made up his mind, his cloudy eyes were filled with energy, and he said sonorously: "Make an appointment with Dong Ping for me..."
