Chapter 207 New record, graduation work
442 million!
At the end of October, "The Martian" was successfully released.
The big stone in the hearts of various companies in the film and television industry has finally fallen to the ground.
Lin Nan pushed the box office record of domestic movies forward by 120 million.
No one knows how long it will take for a new movie to catch up to this record, and who can refresh it.
However, the industry agrees that if a new movie breaks this record, it will most likely be the same ones.
"Director Lin, the data for Southeast Asia is out, and the reported revenue is 12 million US dollars."
"Yes, I understand."
Lin Nan is the first Time has seen the film advisory, and the detailed profits of "The Martian" have been reported.
After excluding the cost of this movie, the producer's pre-tax profit is roughly around 380 million.
Incomparably gorgeous data, without a trace of water.
China Film, Shanghai Film, including Wanda and Enlight were all interviewed.
""The Martian" is the group's largest investment profit in recent years, and it is also the most correct one. We are very much looking forward to the next cooperation with Director Lin."
"Wanda plans to enter Working in the upper reaches of the film industry, working with all outstanding film directors, Director Lin will always be Wanda’s best partner..."
To be honest, the money "The Martian" earned Lin Nan was not as much as "Buried Alive".
But when it comes to domestic influence, "Mars" completely crushes "Buried Alive". This is the advantage of commercial films.
Several producers sat together, with smiles on everyone’s faces.
For the two state-owned enterprises, "The Martian" is enough to cover several years of work reports.
Guangguang and Wanda are just happy to make money.
"Director Lin, Guangguang United TV Station is preparing to launch the "National Drama Festival" TV series brand campaign. When the time comes, all your company's dramas can be brought over..."
Wang Changtian said while holding the wine glass.
"Yeah, no problem."
Lin Nan was quite surprised when he heard the name "Chinese Drama Festival", and the light had another good card.
——
"Don't you think your behavior is excessive?"
Hu Ge looked at Yang Mi gloomily.
When I was chatting with Lin Nan about "Sword Butterfly" that day, the latter said something that made him very embarrassed.
“Although we are friends, you can at least say hello to me if you give me my phone number, right?”
Hu Ge was confused at the time, but he also understood that Lin Nan didn’t He would say such things for no reason.
But in his memory, he never told anyone Lin Nan's phone number?
Until today, when the crew filmed the scene of "making phone calls" using a mirror, he woke up as if from a dream.
Last month, Yang Mi seemed to have borrowed his mobile phone, saying it was to make a call, but she returned it within two minutes.
"I, what's wrong with me?"
Yang Mi thought of something for a moment, but she still asked.
"I trusted you, so I lent you my phone. Do you want me to remind you what you did?"
Hu Ge said coldly.
"I, I just checked the phone..."
As Yang Mi spoke, she also pulled Hu Ge's sleeve.
"That's it? If it were someone else, I might not be able to play in the future, and you would have already left the crew."
Hu Ge laughed angrily.
He has a crush on Yang Mi, but not to the point of joking about his future.
Yang Mi’s face turned pale.
"I, I'm sorry, I just want to go to the premiere...
He won't really ban me because of this, right?"
With Lin Nan's status and connections...
Yang Mi didn't dare to think about it. If Cai Yinong knew about this, he would probably tear himself apart.
Looking at the scared look of the girl in front of him, Hu Ge let out a long sigh of relief.
"This matter ends here. I won't tell others. You should also watch your mouth and show off in front of Tang Yan and Shi Shi..."
said After that, Hu Ge turned around and walked towards the crew.
Yang Mi's eyes were slightly red and she stood there for a long time before finally chasing after him.
"Inception" is officially announced to be finished.
Domestic media rushed to report.
With a US$160 million sci-fi masterpiece and a top-notch lineup, it is destined to be a hit when the time comes.
Liu Yifei was miserable and became even busier.
Little did he know how many female artists were envious of him.
A large number of endorsement invitations were sent to Liu Xiaoli, who and her team began to pick and choose, only the highest-end and best-quality ones.
Nolan and Lin Nan talked on the phone.
""Inception" will complete nearly half a year of post-production special effects at Warner.
If you are free, you can come and take a look."
"I guess I can't wait long."
"I remembered, Crystal Pictures' "New Moon" is about to be released."
Nolan can remember such a low-level movie. Easy, all for Lin Nan's sake.
"That's probably the reason. I won't say more. We will meet and chat when the time comes."
……
Director Xie Jin is gone.
The dog surnamed Song chose this time to come out and spray, bite, insult and ridicule.
The attention and topic are on the rise.
The consequence is that the Radio and Television personally came to the rescue and banned them by name.
Shanghai Film Group and China Film Group jointly promoted it, major TV stations implemented it, Sina banned accounts, and the film and television industry boycotted...
After a series of operations, not only the insiders were happy, but also netizens thought it was a great job.
Because this guy really has no lower limit for being a human being, and it is an insult to the dog species.
“In order not to pay child support, you can slander your daughter as not your biological child. It’s cheap to leave this kind of thing until now.”
“Declared to his company Film and television works are not allowed to establish projects and are prohibited from issuing filming licenses. The company's license will be canceled during the review next year..."
Lin Nan heard the specific banning measures from China Film and Television, and this time it was absolutely clean and tidy.
It is estimated that there are many people in the circle who are willing to beat up the fallen dogs, and they are all first- and second-tier people, as well as many big bosses of film and television companies.
Lin Nan remembered that Hua Yi had been bitten for a long time. News of auditions came out of No Man’s Land.
Ning Hao still chose an invitation-based audition this time and did not disclose it to the industry.
This leaves many companies and actors helpless.
The result was not what Lin Nan expected. The cast list was exactly the same as the audition list.
"Acquaintances are easy to use. I learned this from you." Ning Hao joked on the phone.
“The time is set?”
“It’s set, the filming will start in March.”
“You really don’t plan to change the ending?”
"Hey, I understand your good intentions, but I really don't want to change it. The current script is just right!"
When Ning Hao mentioned "No Man's Land", Lin Nan felt the urgency mood.
I just hope that there will be a good result when it is submitted for review.
The industry is waiting for the celebration reception for "The Martian", but there has been no news.
Han Sanping called specifically to ask about Lin Nan.
"If you want to do it, do it, but I may not be able to participate."
"Why?"
"I have booked my flight tickets and am going to Hollywood soon."
"Is your graduation drama a foreign language film?" Han Sanping was obviously excited.
“Haha, at this point, I won’t hide it anymore. It is indeed a foreign language film.”
"Okay, then I'm looking forward to your new work. We have arranged a celebration party."
"Yes."
......
On the last day of October, Yue Jun put the third batch of 15 people on the plane.
Tom will send someone to pick you up.
Liu Yifei drove the big G and walked slowly to the airport, with Lin Nan sitting in the passenger seat.
"Sissi, can you hurry up? At this speed, it is very likely that you will not be able to catch the plane."
Lin Nan knew what Liu Yifei was thinking.
As expected, the latter glared at him, and then the car moved faster.
More than half an hour later, the two arrived at the airport.
After stamping, Lin Nan carried her bag and got out of the car.
“You can’t miss calls every day, you know?” Liu Yifei reminded.
"I know, I know, go back quickly."
......
The celebration reception for "The Martian" was still very grand, and Liu Yifei did not go.
Many people found out why Lin Nan was nowhere to be seen.
"Brother Xiao Ming, have you seen Brother Lin Nan?"
Jing Tian asked Huang Xiaoming with a confused look on his face.
"I really don't know about this, and I'm also wondering. Just wait a little longer, there's probably a traffic jam on the road."
A staff member came over and called several leading actors to come on stage.
Only then did everyone realize something was wrong.
"Director Lin Nan has a flight to catch, so he can't arrive today..."
Han Sanping was talking on the stage, Jing Tian and several other leading actors were standing on the side, she was a little absent-minded.
Before Lin Nan boarded the plane, she also answered Hu Ge’s call about Yang Mi getting Lin Nan’s mobile phone number from him.
The status is really different. Friends around him are starting to be cautious. This feeling makes Lin Nan a little uncomfortable.
The media was not slow to react either.
The news that Lin Nan did not show up at the celebration banquet spread quickly.
"Director Lin Nan was nowhere to be seen at the "Mars" celebration reception."
"Director Lin Nan appeared at the airport, suspected of going abroad."
Lin Nan's graduation drama Almost everyone in the circle knows about this. There is only more than half a year left in time. People with a discerning eye can already guess what is going abroad now.
"Foreign language film?"
"Not surprisingly, it should be."
It has never been stipulated that graduate students from the Nortel Directing Department cannot make foreign language films, but no one has ever done so. Did it.
Because no student is like Lin Nan, who is already a famous director before graduation.
A lot of reporters came to the school.
Lao Jiang put down the thermos cup filled with black wolfberry. He was assigned by Tian Zangzang to meet the media.
“Everyone, please be quiet. Director Tian asked me to answer what you want to ask.
Before submitting any graduate’s graduation work, even if it is just the name, It needs to be kept confidential.
What I can answer for sure is that Lin Nan’s film is indeed a foreign language film, and the script was written before.”
How is the domestic news, Lin. Nan doesn't know.
Hollywood is really miserable here.
The subprime mortgage crisis has affected the Hollywood film industry.
A large number of small and medium-sized companies went bankrupt and were transferred.
Many film projects have been canceled or postponed indefinitely.
Ninety-nine percent of Tom's worth disappeared into thin air.
"Lin, I took the opportunity to receive a lot of top-notch equipment, which is almost as good as new. I only spent the price of second-hand goods..."
"And also received a lot of employees?"
"Hehehe , yes, they are all top engineers from bankrupt companies, and Crystal Pictures is their best choice.
Oh, damn financial crisis, my money!”
Reply. When arriving at Crystal Pictures, many people greeted Lin Nan warmly.
Under the subprime mortgage crisis, life in Hollywood was not easy. A stable job made them feel very secure and cherished it.
