Chapter 99: What rules are violated
Last night, Lin Nan slept in the hotel and didn’t sleep well all night.
The two conversations with Liu Yifei were all in my mind, turning over and over like a cat, scratching itself.
“I like it, it’s good.”
Lin Nan thought of his ideal a few years ago, when he decided to become a Neptune.
But character is sometimes very strange. It is innate and destined. The first moment your heart strikes your heart, your true nature is awakened.
Liu Yifei was well protected by Liu Xiaoli. From the beginning of "Dragon" to the filming of "The Condor", all kinds of dirty words were thrown at this girl.
However, these ugly words did not frustrate Liu Yifei. She "took the time" to go to "The Statement".
After getting Lin Nan's "Journey to the Center of the Earth", those dark words on the Internet came back, even worse than before, but Liu Yifei still held on. An eighteen-year-old girl can do this, It's unbelievable.
She used to be a little surfer, but now she rarely surfs...
This strong mentality is also one of the reasons why Lin Nan likes it.
Perhaps her divorced family since childhood has shaped her heart.
After washing up, Lin Nan left the hotel.
I was so excited yesterday that I didn’t answer many calls and many text messages.
There are many text messages wishing a happy holiday, and there are more people than before, including Zeng Li and others.
"Yesterday, was that a holiday gift?" Lin Nan murmured with a smile.
Turn on the radio in the car and hear a lot of news.
Eason Chan swept the popular music awards ceremony, Supergirl New Year's Eve concert, Feng Xiaogang announced the shutdown of "The Night Banquet" in a flashy way, and thanked the crew for their hard work...
A piece of film and television news attracted people's attention. attracted Lin Nan's attention.
The costume sitcom created by the original cast of "The Story of the Cooking Class" is coming to Yangba.
""Wulin Gaiden"?"
What a drama that made Lin Nan familiar with the show, and the shopkeeper Tong who spoke with an authentic local accent.
"After graduation in June, the company should expand its business."
This idea suddenly became very strong, including TV series business, film and television investment business, and even signing a few artists.
China Film's team for the post-editing of "Time Cruise" did not have a holiday. Lin Nan drove to China Film and had to come over from time to time to see how the editing was going and whether it met his requirements.
There are many directors who often participate in China Film and Television. Many directors come to fight for the annual film support fund, with the amount ranging from hundreds of thousands to several million, which can basically support some low-cost literary films or realistic themes.
Lin Nan doesn’t come to China Film Academy very often, but almost every time he comes he sees some directors who are running away from money, which is not surprising.
But this time the other party had his mind set on him.
"Director Lin Nan, I wonder if you have any film investment plans. My book is still very good. It only costs about three million..."
Lin Nan Everyone is a little confused, what's going on? This is the first time that I have been stopped from investing in China Film!
Looking at several unfamiliar faces, Lin Nan was a little overwhelmed and could only step back.
Fortunately, several staff members from China Film Group came over to block it, and we were relieved.
......
"Director Lin, I didn't scare you, did I?"
A China Film employee asked with a smile.
"What's going on? I remember they were all directors with no name, and they came to ask for funds during holidays?"
Lin Nan was a little confused. Didn't he pay attention to the impact of his status?
The other party made a sad face, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "You are the only one who has a good relationship with the group. I just said that there was a meeting a few days ago. This year's support funds have been cut. Those few people are here. Inside..."
"More than these?"
Lin Nan asked tentatively.
"Almost cut in half."
Lin Nan understands, this is to make up for losses. When it is said to be cut in half, it most likely refers to the total support funds being cut in half, but the number of supported films is absolutely Not too much less, it looks better this way.
Bringing China Film Group to make movies together has the advantage of making full use of China Film Group’s good equipment and talents.
"Director Lin, come to see the post-production?"
Everyone saw Lin Nan and greeted him familiarly. He had done the post-production of "Into the Dust" before, and now he was completely old. An acquaintance.
"Yes, I heard that you are working overtime, so I'm here to express my condolences, haha."
"Then you can't come empty-handed?" someone joked.
"Okay, I will take care of the feast at noon."
Looking at the first scene of Zeng Li and Ning Hao on the screen, Lin Nan said generously.
“Okay, thank you, Director Lin.”
"Thank you, Director Lin, for your hospitality, haha."
......
When this movie was filmed, it was recorded live, and it sounded very good now. The Chinese actors' lines are really good. It's not a boast.
To compare, the three people in this movie completely crush the other three.
Looking at Zeng Li with blood on her face in the picture, Lin Nan also felt that she was not suitable for the small screen, and was more suitable for long shots. It would be very good if she changed into ancient costumes.
"I'm sorry to bother you guys. When the project is completed, I will ask Mr. Han to give you bonuses and project bonuses."
"Director Lin must go and talk to Mr. Han. A great director cannot break his promise and get rich." "
"Yes, that's the truth."
Lin Nan smiled and said that everything was easy to talk about.
Lin Nan told Han Sanping about the multi-regional distribution of this film.
China Film needs to help him with Southeast Asia. For North America and Europe, he can communicate with Lionsgate or New Line and find them for distribution. Han Sanping is in the group today. For people of this level, there is no such thing as a holiday.
Lin Nan stayed here for a while in the later stage, and then Han Sanping sent someone to look for him.
"Mr. Han, you are really a stickler. Every time I come over to watch the post-production, you always call me over."
Lin Nan joked with a smile.
Han Sanping leaned back in his chair, "You still don't want to? If you don't come today, I will call you tomorrow."
Hearing that this meant it was serious business, Lin Nan put away his joking expression, "What? What about the business?"
Han Sanping smiled, "It's about the movie."
"The distribution thing?" Lin Nan guessed.
Han Sanping nodded, "In fact, you already have connections with Europe and the United States. Lionsgate or New Line are both fine, and China Film doesn't have to worry too much."
Lin Nan nodded, that's the truth.
“The multi-regional distribution mentioned before is only in Southeast Asia. Other places are easy to talk about. There is currently a problem in South Korea.”
“What problem can there be?”< br>
Lin Nan asked, logically speaking, there would be no difficulty. Those stickmen have always been proud of the entertainment industry, so the probability of a movie causing trouble should be low.
“It’s not a bad thing.” Han Sanping saw that Lin Nan had misinterpreted what he meant.
"You should know that the economic structure of this country is that many industries are controlled by large companies, the so-called chaebols."
"I know this."
"Before We were working with CJ on "Return to Youth", and originally "Time Cruise" was most likely handed over to them, but this time another company came over, hoping to get the exclusive distribution rights."
< br>“I was shocked, what did I think it was?”
Lin Nan reacted after speaking. CJ was originally a giant in the South Korean film and television industry, and those who dared to compete with it were definitely not small players. .
"Which one?"
"ShowBox, they have a lot of say in theater chains in South Korea." Han Sanping added.
Generally, the more developed the economy, the better the movie box office, so South Korea is a box office that cannot be ignored.
“You mean, let me make a choice?”
Lin Nan asked.
"You have to make a choice, and you will be coming to China in two days." Han Sanping glanced at Lin Nan.
"Who? CJ or ShoeBox?"
"The latter, but there is no guarantee that CJ will come after hearing the news."
Lin Nan thinks this joke is not right Funny, "It's just a movie, and the cost is only 40 million, not 400 million. Is it worth a trip?"
"Besides, it hasn't been long since we started working on the post-production process, so we wouldn't be talking about it so early. Son.”
"Don't think about this, you should consider which one to choose." Han Sanping gave all the questions to Lin Nan.
Lin Nan has only heard of the name of the company there, but doesn’t really know much about it.
When I have to make a choice now, I definitely can’t choose. “It’s better to wait until I go back and think about it. At worst, we’ll talk about it when we meet someone.”
Han Sanping doesn’t care about Lin Nan’s idea. , from China Film’s point of view, it doesn’t matter who you work with, because it itself is prefixed with Chinese characters.
"Over on Hong Kong Island, Ying Huang will probably look for you. Didn't they publish "Stone" once before?"
Han Sanping reminded that Yang Shoucheng had actually talked about this matter with him on the phone, but Lin Nan was the person involved in this project. Han Sanping suggested that he contact Lin Nan directly.
"That's no problem. We've already worked together once."
Lin Nan agreed casually. He had a good impression of Yang Shoucheng. His artist said otherwise.
Before Lin Nan could react, Han Sanping handed over a form.
Lin Nan was stunned and took it.
"This is information that will be released in a few days. Take a look at it first. Don't tell anyone. You can choose a good time for "Time Cruise" this year."
Lin Nan glanced at the document in his hand. His eyes lit up, "Mr. Han, is this not against the rules?"
"It's against the rules? You didn't do anything, what kind of rules are you violating?"
Lin Nan really admires it, a boss is a boss .
The information in hand is this year’s list of imported films! Half of them have the approximate month marked, and a few even have the specific time marked.
"This is just most of them. There are still some that are under negotiation. We will give priority to our own people when the time comes..."
"Understood, Mr. Han."
China Film is China Film, sometimes both Being both a player and a referee means that many things in the game can be mixed together.
"That is to say, our current film industry is still too weak. Otherwise, why would we do this? We are under great pressure to introduce films, and the WTO regulations are there."
Han Sanping The look on his face made Lin Nan a little touched. Although this man acted a bit domineering, his heart for the domestic film industry was genuine.
Lin Nan lowered his head and glanced at the list. "King Kong" will be released ten days later, followed by "The Fighting Pigeon" and "Battle of the Empire".
Three imported films will be released in January, especially with a blockbuster like "King Kong" leading the way. Lin Nan is worried about Jet Li's "Fearless" and only wishes him good luck.
"By the way, Mr. Han. I invited the post-production team to dinner this morning. Do you want to join us?"
Lin Nan did not forget this and said smoothly.
Han Sanping smiled and waved his hand, "I won't go, there are other dinners.
You tell them that I have approved the project bonus you promised them to fight for, and it will be treated as a favor to you. "
"Haha, you actually knew it, it only took a while. Then thank you for this favor. ”
