Chapter 57 Being a Guest
There are bright lights and a bustling scene in the distance. Here, beer and barbecue, coupled with the smoke of fireworks, the combination is quite wonderful.
The place Huang Bo picked was pretty good, with a lot of customers. The four of them found a remote corner to enjoy the night view, eat, drink and chat.
"Director Kai Ge has been criticized from top to bottom recently. The crew made the scenic spot look like that and left with a pat on the back. Now that things have become like this, the local authorities are suing him. "
Ning Hao took a bite of meat and said.
"I saw the photos on the Internet. This must be a great director. He dares to go to Tianchi to see large-scale illegal construction."
Huang Boting joked happily.
Lin Nan didn't pay attention to this matter before, but I have this impression. Director Chen has always been very happy with success. "The Promise" is endorsed by China Film Group, so he must make a big deal. Who knows that Chen doesn't consider the consequences? Now there's trouble.
“When we make movies in the future, we must learn from Director Chen’s lesson. Once this incident comes out, our name will be on the pillar of shame from now on.”
Lin Nan and Ning Hao said.
"How can I have Director Chen's energy? It would be absolutely impossible for me to do this kind of thing. I just don't know what the success of his movie is, and how he can pull off so many things. When the time comes, I We have to go and watch it.”
“Go together, go together, we really need to study the director’s film,” Huang Bo agreed.
Lin Nan wanted to laugh but held it back, "Then go and pay homage then."
"By the way, there will be "Seven Swords" at the end of the month. Xu Ke's, do you want to go? Look, I've always liked his martial arts films." Ning Hao said.
"I like "Green Snake"." Huang Bo said unexpectedly.
The tacit understanding between the men was immediately revealed. Lin Nan and Ning Hao did not answer because Xing Aina was also there.
"After the release of "Into the Dust", you really have no new film plans?"
Ning Hao asked Lin Nan, Huang Bo also looked over.
"There must be one. I'm still thinking about it. Why do everyone care about my movie plan?"
Lin Nan has heard this question asked many times by different people.
"There are only a few directors, and many of them have fixed collaborators. If you are idle right now, there won't be many people watching you.
Don't look at me, I have a pretty good schedule. There’s so much, so there’s no time to spare,” Ning Hao said while eating.
Lin Nan looked at Xing Aina, who nodded, Ning Hao didn't lie.
After a few people finished eating, they wandered for another two hours before it was over.
Huang Bo called someone and drove him back.
Xing Aina didn't drink, so she took over the driving role and dropped Lin Nan at the door of the film school.
It's nine or ten o'clock in the evening. There are still many students entering and leaving the school, and there are also many luxury cars at the school gate. This is almost the case in several art academies.
......
The next day, Lin Nan received a call from Shanghai Film Studio. They had already held a meeting to discuss what he said yesterday, and the opinions were unanimous.
Shanghai Film made it clear that it wanted to invest, and Lin Nan lamented its efficiency, which was much faster than that of China Film. Mr. Ren was worthy of being the master of the matter.
As for the specific share, they will send someone to communicate with Lin Nan, or Lin Nan will organize several parties to discuss it together.
In Mr. Ren's eyes, Shanghai Film's only competitor is China Film. Even if there are other film studios, they don't take it seriously, let alone private film companies.
“Okay, Mr. Ren, let’s do this. China Film Group hasn’t given me a clear answer yet. When the results come out, I’ll let you know and we’ll discuss it with me at that time.
With these shares, I will also keep some for myself.
Other private companies must also have some..."
Lin Nan admired Mr. Ren's idea. He actually thought that just two or three companies would be enough. It would be best for Lin Nan to work with Shanghai Film and China Film and not consider private companies.
If I switch to China Film Group, I guess the idea is the same.
But Lin Nan is still preparing to make money. Private enterprises' participation in Hollywood movies has a strong incentive for fame and prestige. It seems that Huayi will need this very soon.
A glance at the news showed that three weeks after the release of "Initial Letter", the mainland box office had finally reached 60 million, and it couldn't run any further. The producer was preparing to hold a celebration banquet in a very high-profile manner.
The promotion of "Seven Swords" is very tight. Xu Ke is a very experienced director who has focused on martial arts films for many years. This time, Li Ming and Donnie Yen are starring again, as well as Sun Honglei and Lu Yi, Zhang Jingchu and others participated, and the audience's expectations for this movie are very high.
Liu Yifei called, accompanied by Shu Chang's noise, and invited Lin Nan to come over for a meal. Although she didn't understand what the two girls were going to do, Lin Nan readily agreed.
Liu Yifei and her daughter have a separate villa in the capital, which is much more comfortable than Lin Nan's.
In the past, Lin Nan had been invited once or twice, but he politely refused because he clearly felt Liu's mother's grudge.
The grudge seemed to have subsided gradually, but there was no chance to visit him again. Several girls in the class did go there, such as Jiang Yiyan and others.
According to the address Liu Yifei mentioned in his memory, Lin Nan took a taxi to the nearby area. It was indeed a high-end residential area, a single-family villa in Yishui.
"Hey, here it is."
From a distance, I saw Shu Chang waving there, wearing a single ponytail, white short sleeves and jeans, looking youthful and beautiful.
Lin Nan trotted over and said with a smile, "Long time no see, Changchang"
"You are a busy man. I may want to see you in the future, but I may not be able to see you. Shu Chang joked.
"Others don't dare to tell me. Don't you have my phone number? Call me directly."
"Come on, let's go in, Sissi is still waiting for us."
Shu took the lead and walked inside.
It can be seen that Mother Liu likes a unique life. There are many green plants planted in the yard of the villa, and there is also a garden with a set of leisure tables and chairs, and an exquisite swing.
Mother Liu was also there and saw Lin Nan smiling, "Xiao Lin, Chang Chang, come in quickly."
"Hello, Auntie."
Lin Nan still shouted politely.
"I heard that you just came back from there and things went well at work?"
"Pretty smooth."
When I walked into the lobby, I saw Liu Yifei wearing Wearing a home sweater and kicking slippers, he came down from the second floor, accompanied by two solid-colored cats, one black and one white. "He came very quickly. Call Xiao Zhu. He seems to be busy and can't leave. Yanyan also made an announcement. It's just the three of us."
"Hua Yi, I've been busy lately. I guess things will get better in a while."
Lin Nan sat on the sofa and said.
In the blink of an eye, Liu’s mother no longer knew where she was going. Only three people and a few cats were left in the hall.
"Why do you want to call me here today?" As he said that, Lin Nan looked around.
“Originally I said I was going out with Changchang, so I called you and Xiaozhu by the way, but my mother said it’s the same as at home, you haven’t been over as guests yet, who knows where Xiaozhu won’t be able to leave.”< br>
Liu Yifei and Shu Chang sat together, each holding a cat in their arms.
"It means I can have a meal here today." Lin Nan smiled.
"Yes, me too."
Shu Chang rubbed his face against the white cat and said.
"By the way, I have something to tell you." Liu Yifei said slyly.
"What's the matter?"
"My birthday is next month, remember to prepare a birthday gift for me."
Shu Chang nodded in agreement solemnly.
“You don’t have to prepare the same thing, why are you so happy.”
Lin Nan looked at Shu Chang’s look and was a little speechless.
"We are best friends, and what's hers is mine." Shu Chang leaned against Liu Yifei and said.
"Okay, I'll prepare it for you, and remember to inform Zhu Yawenha that I can't be the only one bleeding."
"Of course, you can't run away."
< br>Liu Yifei squinted her eyes and pretended to be a bad guy.
Mother Liu should have contacted the restaurant and made an order. According to Liu Yifei and Shu Chang, Mother Liu doesn't cook either, just like Liu Yifei.
"I remember one time, I came over and made dumplings for Sissi. She only knew how to cook instant noodles."
Shu advocated exposing Liu Yifei's background without mercy.
"You must be awesome, Shu Chang Nv Xia."
Liu Yifei looked at her best friend and smiled beautifully.
The three of them chatted happily. The nanny brought a large plate of fruit, put it down and walked away.
Liu Yifei's album is already being produced in full swing. In the next year, in addition to the album, she will go to school more and wait for film resources.
Shu Chang is now in his sophomore year at the start of school, and all performing arts activities have been completely suspended. His manager is no different from a stranger.
Fortunately, there will be CCTV's "Lotus Lantern" by then, and the role of Xiaoyu should be able to maintain a long-term popularity with the audience.
After a while, Liu's mother came back from outside, "You guys will eat at home in the morning, I have already ordered the meal."
"Thank you, Auntie."
Mother Liu went to change her clothes with a smile on her face, as if she had something to do and had to go out temporarily.
"You guys have fun, Auntie has to go out for something."
Mother Liu put on her burgundy sunglasses and went out.
"Sissi, what are you doing, auntie?" Shu Chang asked curiously.
"It should be another company that wants to negotiate a contract. You know, the company my mother and others established for me is actually an empty shell."
"There are many companies that have contacted you, right?"
Lin Nan said something.
Liu Yifei nodded.
“Since the filming of "The Condor" was completed, many agencies have contacted me. Especially after my mother planned for me to take on future movies, I contacted even more companies.
Most frequently It’s Hua Yi, and there are also many people from Tang Dynasty. I have met several famous agents many times. I guess which company is dating my mother..."
Mother Liu has a strong desire to control her daughter, but this is also a manifestation of love.
"Tell me about your birthday. Why do you want to make such a big deal?"
Lin Nan couldn't understand this kind of birthday party.
“My mother and my godfather discussed what they were going to do. Firstly, they would invite some producers in the industry to pave the way for me. Secondly, they would also use this opportunity to expand their network of contacts and resources. This is what my mother told me. I have your invitation."
Liu Yifei sat on the sofa with her legs crossed, and the pure black cat in her arms meowed lazily from time to time, enjoying the owner's touch.
"What if I have other things to do that day?" Lin Nan asked playfully.
I saw Liu Yifei staring over.
"Then you're dead."
Obviously, Lin Nan did it on purpose.
“Haha, I won’t not go.”
Shu Chang looked at his best friend, "Sissi is so cute when she stares at people."
As he said that, he was going to pinch Liu Yifei's cheeks, and the two girls instantly twisted into a ball.
