Looking at Lin Nan and the three of them walking towards the signature wall.
The host is still a little confused.
Today there are no less than six directors, and they are very weird.
“I have already restrained myself. I was going to say it directly: even the Golden Lion and Golden Bear movies were not shortlisted, so why should we make a mistake?”
"So there won't be any problems, right?" Huang Bo asked.
"What are you afraid of? Director Jia and Director Jiang just said similar things. Besides, this is the truth, not a lie."
Lin Nan looked indifferent. .
Anyway, he has no hope for the Golden Rooster.
While talking, several people entered the award ceremony.
Although they were guests this time, Lin Nan and Ning Hao had a good seat, in the fifth row by the aisle.
Liu Yifei is on the other side of the aisle, in the third row with Jackie Chan and the others.
"Director Lin, long time no see."
Tang Wei smiled and said hello.
“Long time no see, I haven’t congratulated you yet.” Lin Nan was stunned for a moment and said.
The two first met on the set of "Time Cruise" because of Tian Yu.
It is inevitable to feel a little embarrassed when we meet now. A good couple just parted ways.
"Thank you." Tang Wei walked away.
"Suddenly becoming famous is a test for actors, especially actresses, especially for her kind of fame." Ning Hao said.
Jackie Chan waved to Lin Nan over there.
"Brother, what's the matter?" Lin Nan walked over.
"I'm thinking about setting up a seat for you to sit over, haha. Don't think too much, I just want to chat with you."
Liu Yifei on the side looked at her with a smile on her face. He glanced at Lin Nan.
"No, the impact is not good, haha..."
As he said this, Lin Nan handed Liu Yifei a candy and also gave one to Jackie Chan.
"The party is a bit long, so I'll give it a nap."
"It's very thoughtful, just like when I was young." Jackie Chan said with a smile, peeling off the candy and stuffing it into his mouth.
……
This year’s Golden Rooster, there are too many Hong Kong stars and filmmakers coming, and it is widely rumored that this is all the work of Liu Jialing.
She is the image ambassador of this film festival, and this is her hometown.
After Zhang Liangying sang three songs in a row, the closing ceremony ended and we got down to business.
The best screenwriting, art, photography, and music are not very attractive.
What everyone is most concerned about is the news that circulated on the Internet when the nomination list was announced.
Both the Best Supporting Actor and Best Supporting Actress are not very well-known. They all seem to be directors working on dramas within the organization.
Surprisingly, the Best Actor Award was given before the Best Actress Award. Has the order been changed?
Chen Kun is the favorite for Best Actor, and the Huabiao Award is the title shared equally with Fu Dalong.
Today the two compete again.
"Best Actor, Fu Dalong, "Tengu"..."
When the Best Actress is awarded, the smell of the golden rooster is just right.
"Best Actress, Liu Jialing, "Curiosity Killed the Cat"; Yan Bingyan, "Love Teeth"..."
Is it this operation or the golden rooster.
The predictions on the Internet came true. Liu Jialing really won the Best Actress, and he guessed it exactly, the Double Yolk Egg Best Actress.
"Is this the reason for changing the order of awards?" Ning Hao asked in a low voice.
"We are both guests, you ask me, how do I know." Lin Nan looked forward and said expressionlessly.
The award presenters were Tony Leung Chaowei and Jet Li, but Yan Bingyan looked out of place on stage.
For best director, there are still two.
This is a bit of a joke.
It wasn't until the Best Picture was awarded to "The Ballad of Clouds and Waters" that people in the audience realized that tonight's awards results seemed to be 80% consistent with what was predicted online.
At the end of the award ceremony, Lin Nan and his party went directly to the airport without staying.
"I'm starting to look forward to tomorrow's news, haha..."
…………
The next morning, Ning Hao called Lin Nan excitedly.
The Internet is full of people mocking Golden Rooster.
“If the awards are not tied, the ‘hundred flowers’ will not bloom; if it is not a double-yolked egg, the ‘golden rooster’ will not crow.”
In the past, it was only ridiculed by ordinary people, but this time there are many more filmmakers.
Lin Nan and Ning Hao's speeches on the red carpet yesterday, as well as interviews with Jiang Wen, Jia Zhangke and others, are all on the front page of the portal.
The biggest headlines are not these, but that the Film Association and the Golden Rooster Organizing Committee will hold a media meeting today.
Explain and clarify the issue of "double yolk eggs" and what netizens said about "after internal fixation".
“The more you explain this kind of thing, the less everyone will believe it, because you are inherently tricky.
How come an odd number of judges can always award an even number of awards?”
Lin Nan didn't care about how the Film Association explained to the media.
He and Li Yang went to the movie channel to promote "Blind Mountain" for the last time.
On the last day of October, Ning Hao told Lin Nan that Professor Hou Kenming gave him a few words and his speech on the Golden Rooster red carpet was somewhat inappropriate.
Lin Nan was still wondering why she didn't find him. Finally, she asked Tian Zhuangzhuang and found out that he pushed him back.
……
The domestic release date of "Lust, Caution" has been changed again and again.
Finally it was changed to November 1st, the same day as "Blind Mountain" to be released.
Although Lin Nan and Li Yang tried their best to promote, the treatment of the two films is definitely different.
When it was released in Hong Kong and Bay Island in October, "Lust, Caution" was the box office champion. In other words, mainland audiences have been whetted and want to see this movie.
Lin Nan understands that "Blind Mountain" will not pose any threat to "Lust, Caution".
On the first day of November, "Blind Mountain" and "Lust, Caution" were released simultaneously.
From media reports, you can see the differences between the two films.
"Lust, Caution" has almost reached 100% attendance in several movie theaters in the capital, which is terrifying.
The attendance rate of "Blind Mountain" was very poor, because the audience knew from the beginning that this was a movie that might be uncomfortable after watching it.
The next day, Lin Nan called China Film and asked about the box office on the first day.
"Director Lin, the box office on the first day was only 890,000, but the reviews were very high..."
"Yes, I understand, thank you."
Lin Nan died Telephone, this result is already very good, compared with the original time.
In my mind, the total box office of less than 100,000 yuan is simply sad.
On the other hand, the media reported that the box office of "Lust, Caution" exceeded 10 million on the first day.
The online evaluation of "Blind Mountain" has also come out: This is a movie that makes people angry and angry, and it is also a movie that makes people feel powerless and desperate...
The evaluation of "Lust, Caution" is a bit biased towards the actors, from acting to plot, from characters to ideas.
"Lin Nan, I cheated you with this score." Li Yang smiled helplessly and said.
“Needless to say, this movie is not trying to make money.”
In the following days, the box office of "Lust, Caution" remained at eight or nine million, while the box office of "Blind Mountain" dropped to three or four hundred thousand, or even lower.
Yu Dong called Lin Nan and said that the film schedule has really improved, but the attendance rate is too low.
The media is already reporting that this will be the first loss-making movie produced by Lin Nan.
Liu Yifei went to see "Blind Mountain" and when she came back she felt depressed and her eyes were a little swollen.
"I told you not to look, but you didn't listen." Lin Nan gently stroked Liu Yifei's eyes.
"If, I am the Bai Xuemei who was sold..."
"There is no if."
Lin Nan said decisively.
Liu Yifei is like this, occasionally quite silly, but most of the time she is emotional.
She has always wanted to act in a literary film, like "Blind Mountain", and she definitely has the idea.
......
Bona held a press conference for "Blind Mountain".
This is what Lin Nan requested.
The industry is very confused. Although the box office is not good, the theater chain has not said that it will be removed from the shelves. It has only been less than a week. What kind of press conference will be held?
It makes no difference whether "Blind Mountain" is taken off the shelves. On the fifth day, the daily box office dropped to less than 10,000 yuan, and the total box office was less than 2 million.
The reputation is really good, that's enough.
The venue of the press conference is the China Film Auditorium.
Lin Nan invited all the well-known media in the industry. In addition, there were several official media who asked Han Sanping for help.
In the morning, the small auditorium was already filled with media reporters.
Seeing that the time was almost up, Lin Nan and Li Yang came on stage.
"Director Lin, I wonder what the theme of today's press conference is?"
"Although the box office is not good, this is indeed a good movie in the true sense..."
… …
The reporters were chattering a little noisily.
“Be quiet.”
Lin Nan held the microphone and said, and the venue fell silent for an instant.
"This press conference today is indeed for the movie "Blind Mountain". Don't be impatient, please listen to me."
"My first movie when I entered the industry , is "The Blind Shaft" directed by Li Yang, which is also a movie adapted from a real case. Although it is a pity that it cannot be released in China, I believe that there must be pirated copies, haha..."
Lin Nan's words are funny. many reporters.
“In addition, I would like to thank Mr. Yu from Bona for his contribution to “Blind Mountain”, so I also handed over the distribution rights of “Painted Skin” to Bona.”
This was the first time this matter had been announced to the outside world, and the reporters instantly felt that the trip was worthwhile.
"The last point is also the core meaning of today's press conference."
Lin Nan paused and looked at everyone present.
"I fully invested in the production of "Blind Mountain". Director Li Yang is a truly socially responsible director. We discussed it and "Blind Mountain" will be completely canceled after today.
And, in order to rescue abducted women and fight crime, I voluntarily gave up the copyright of this film
Any audiovisual publisher or website is free to use. The aim is to let more people see this movie, thank you all..."
...
The news of "Blind Mountain" spread quickly.
This is the first time Once, a producer voluntarily gave up the film rights.
Lin Nan and Li Yang's actions dazzled many film and television companies in the industry.
"Lin Zi, you are awesome."
"Director Lin is very impressive."
......
Many acquaintances sent messages and called Lin Nan, admiring him for this operate.
Nortel’s official website forwarded this news.
There were only a few voices saying that Lin Nan and Li Yang were cutting their losses in time and trying to please others, but they were quickly scolded into silence.
"Twilight" is about to be released. This film is the first theatrical film independently produced by Crystal Pictures.
The box office performance will directly affect morale.
As the boss, Lin Nan had to fly over and keep an eye on him to stabilize the morale of the army.
In addition, you have to check out the special effects of "The Martian" and "Painted Skin", especially the latter, after all, the release date has been set.
