Chapter 50 Youth has advantages
The atmosphere at the venue was a bit weird.
The leaders are nodding their heads, thinking about something.
The directors below did not expect Lin Nan to be so bold to say this, as expected of a young man.
Several big directors looked at Lin Nan with smiles on their faces, while some old people in the association lost their composure.
The roll call speech continued. Lin Nan sat there, thinking that what he should have just said was tactful, right?
"Do you really dare to say, Golden Rooster at the end of the year, will your "Into the Dust" still go?"
Ning Hao came over and said something.
This reminded Lin Nan, "Go, why don't you go? I already got the Silver Bear, shouldn't it be the people in the Golden Rooster Jury who are in trouble?"
Ning Hao thought about it and it was really like this, "Only because you have the Silver Bear and your age can you be so confident."
"Stop talking and listen to others." Lin Nan interrupted Ning Hao.
Being young does have advantages. If you tell the truth, the consequences will not be too serious.
We settled in the canteen here at noon, or it was the government canteen. There are cuisines from all over the world. The taste and style are no worse than those in other hotels. You can get whatever you want. I heard that the chefs are all Braided.
At the end of the afternoon, Wang Xiaoshuai came over to chat with Lin Nan. "Green Red" will be released in China in early June. Having learned the lessons of "Peacock", Wang Xiaoshuai is going to hold a premiere and invites the two to attend. .
“No problem.”
"Goodbye, directors." Gao Yuanyuan waved proactively.
When the others walked away, Ning Hao sighed, "I also really want to shoot this kind of subject."
Ning Hao's old habit happened again.
“Don’t look, Zhou Zhiruo is gone.” Lin Nan deliberately led astray.
“Whoever watched it, don’t tell nonsense. I’m just speaking out of my feelings. Dramas and realistic films still have to go the film festival route to win awards.”
Mr. Han chased after him from a distance, "You boy, you are so big-mouthed today. You dare to say anything."
"Mr. Han, I am not wrong. Look at those old judges. There are a few people who are actually making movies, and they are all so old, and they are still holding on to their positions..."
"Okay, okay, given our situation, we have to give some steps to the seniors. , Change will definitely happen, you have to take your time. "
I am afraid it will take many years, Lin Nan complained silently.
At this time, people from Shanghai Film Academy came over, "Mr. Han, Director Lin, Director Ning."
"Director Lin, why don't you take some time to go to the film festival? Mr. Ren asked me to tell you this. After all, we are the host of Shanghai Film Festival..."
"Magic City Film Festival" ?”
Han Sanping was stunned for a moment and then came to his senses.
"I don't have any works, so why go there? Didn't Ning Hao already agree to take someone there?"
Ning Hao didn't say anything. Although he was the director of "Stone", But it can be seen that others are very concerned about whether Lin Nan can be present.
"If you don't go, you won't go. Lin Nan has to prepare for the release of "Into the Dust" in the next few days next month."
At this time, Han Sanping came out and said something to relieve Lin Nan.
China Film is responsible for the promotion of "Into the Dust". Han Sanping negotiated it in Berlin. Naturally, he wanted Lin Nan to concentrate on it.
"Yes, I'm really sorry. You heard it. I really have work arrangements."
Lin Nan took the opportunity to follow up.
The film festival from the 11th to the 19th will not affect the promotion of "Into the Dust" to be honest, but Han Sanping helped him find a reason, and he just used it.
The people in Shangying had no choice but to leave.
"Old Ren must feel bad because he won't even go, hahaha." Han Sanping said with a smile.
“Just look at this year’s lineup of judges and entries, and you will know that I went there purely to set up a stage for others.”
Lin Nan still had nothing to say, over there It was said to be an international film festival, but the scale was really small. He didn't want to carry someone else's sedan chair. If it were next year, he might consider going there.
Many participants left one after another. Ning Hao returned to the studio and took Lin Nan back to school.
“Can’t you just buy a car?”
Ning Hao complained all the time. He had never seen someone with Lin Nan’s attitude as a gentleman. He didn’t buy a house or a car.
"When I marry my wife, I will use hers." Lin Nan said glibly.
“You can pull it off, you don’t even have a girlfriend, but you still have a wife, and besides, you are too shameless.”
Ning Hao had an expression of disbelief.
......
In March, "The Best in the World", which was supervised, written and produced by Wang Jing, was launched. The ratings were very high. Everyone lamented that Wang Jing was worthy of being Wang Jing. If you have fun with movies, you can make good TV series.
In the past two days, "Little Fish and Flowers" directed by Wang Jing himself has been launched, and even more people are following it. Nicholas Tse, Zhang Weijian, Yuan Quan, Fan Bingbing... Just looking at the lineup makes the audience full of expectations.
Students at the film school also know how to follow dramas. Lin Nan heard many girls talking about Yang Xue, who was rated 99, with envy in their words. That was Jiang Yuyan, the villain throughout the whole drama. As for the heroine, there are people like Fan Bingbing and Yuan Quan in the drama, but they are all supporting roles.
According to Liu Yifei, Liu's mother and the others are contacting people from Sony and want to produce a Mandarin album and a Japanese album together.
Lin Nan has to admit that the pop music there is indeed very powerful at this stage. Many singers in Hong Kong have cooperated with them, and Sony's strength is also top in the industry. "It will probably take a year. Good songs also take time to create."
Liu Yifei told Lin Nan the news from Sony.
“Are you not going to take any more dramas during this period?”
"My mother and my godfather said that I won't accept TV series anymore. If there are movies, I can watch them."
Liu Yifei said and winked at Lin Nan.
"Haha, don't look at me like that, I won't be able to come up with a script suitable for you for a while."
Lin Nan spread his hands.
Liu Yifei has only acted in four TV series at her age. It is difficult for her to star in suitable movies, unless she plays a supporting role. She may not be able to take on some realistic themes.
"Don't forget what you promised me."
Liu Yifei crossed her arms in front of her chest. At this moment, she looked fierce with these words.
"I will never forget it. When the time comes, I will definitely ask you to play the leading role." Lin Nan said with a smile.
“That’s pretty much it.”
……
On June 2nd, Lin Nan and Ning Hao were invited to attend the domestic premiere of "Green Red".
There are many movies released every year, but very few of them can get the ideal box office in the end, especially for reality-themed dramas like "Blue Red". It only gained more confidence after winning the Grand Jury Prize. , the same is true for "Into the Dust".
There is not much time left for "Green Red", Jay Chou's "Initial" is coming soon, and the power of fans cannot be ignored.
There are many directors who support Wang Xiaoshuai, and many of them are immersed in dramas and realistic themes all year round. Lin Nan and Ning Hao look very awkward in it, mainly because they are not the same age, and they are surrounded by four people. Around ten, maybe even older.
Without staying long, Lin Nan and Ning Hao left as soon as they finished.
"It's still a lively premiere of a commercial film." Ning Hao complained.
“Yeah, I’m thinking that there won’t be a premiere of “Into the Dust”.”
Realistic themes are generally a bit heavy, and having a banquet after watching the movie always seems abrupt. It would be suitable if it were a commercial film.
The premiere of "Green Red" was attended by old-school media, mostly official media, and the atmosphere was quite normal, even a little dull, so Lin Nan and Ning Hao couldn't stand it.
"It's fine if you don't do it. Just do a good job in publicity. After all, it's your movie that won the Silver Bear. Tsk, tsk, it will be all profit after the release."
"Haha, that's right."
Facts have proved that audiences still don't like to watch such heavy films in cinemas. The box office of "Blue and Red" on the first day after its release was only a few hundred thousand.
The media has reported "Blue Red" and "Peacock" together. The two won the Jury Prize at Cannes and Berlin respectively, and the box office was surprisingly low.
The pressure is on Lin Nan. There is still nearly a month until "Into the Dust" is released. Can he get rid of the low box office curse of "Green Red" and "Peacock".
Han Sanping contacted Lin Nan and asked him if he wanted to make a public statement and took the opportunity to start publicity.
Just do what you say, Lin Nan accepted the interview.
“I know that most viewers like family-friendly movies that can entertain the body and mind. Realistic themes generally cannot do this. It expresses stories in life, and there are mostly regrets and sufferings, but it is Most of the things that are true and sincere and can touch people's hearts are the bitterness and suffering in life..."
The manuscript given by China Film Group was good, and Lin Nan revised it a little and used it.
"Into the Dust" is different from "Blue Red" and "Peacock". It is more bitter and difficult than the latter two. Lin Nan only hopes that he will not be scolded by then, but the reputation It shouldn't be bad.
Lionsgate is really efficient. It has only been a month and a half and "Dead Silence" has already been filmed.
"James, you didn't lie to me, did you?"
Lin Nan asked Wen Ziren. Although he was mentally prepared for this, he still couldn't believe it when he heard that the filming was about to be completed.
"Director Lin Nan, your script is very good. We didn't make any changes and the crew shot it very smoothly. You know, as long as the prop team has no problems, this kind of film will be fast. Next we will Do the post-production as quickly as possible. When the finished film comes out, you need to come and take a look..."
"Okay, I will definitely be there."
Listen to Wen Ziren. , post-production will be concentrated in June, and it is planned to be completely completed this month.
And depending on Lionsgate’s intention, it will be released at any time after the post-production is completed. This is also the reason for contacting Lin Nan. The time to test the results is coming soon.
Ning Hao took the crew to the Magic City in advance. A group of people were looking forward to it. "Stone" has such a good reputation at the box office, so the probability of winning the award should be quite high, right?
The promotion of "Initial Letter" is in full swing. The most popular singer Jay Chou in the past two years co-starred in the movie with a team of Hong Kong actors, and there is no shortage of gimmicks.
The copyright sold in Cannes for "Blue and Red" definitely made a profit, but after the promotion of "Initial Letter" began, the box office of the former became even more miserable, and it has only reached 2 million so far.
""The Stone" has just been released not long ago. When the time comes, "Into the Dust" can still capitalize on the reputation of the former. You have an advantage over directors Xiaoshuai and Chang Wei."
< br>
China Film is already preparing for the release of "Into the Dust", and it makes sense to use "Stone" to generate a wave of popularity.
Mr. Han is still worried about whether "Initial" will have an impact on "Into the Dust". China Film's publicity expenses are divided from the box office revenue.
"No, there is a gap of twelve days. The focus of their promotion is Jay Chou, but no matter how many fans they have, they can't support the box office forever. The box office should be almost there before July. ”
