Chapter 215 "Racing" is released
On the day "Under the Red Cliff" was released, "If You Are the One" was successfully finished.
The latter reported a revenue of 340 million.
It is still 102 million short of the domestic box office record of "The Martian".
“Director Feng Xiaogang has tried his best.”
"I believe that no one will be able to break the box office record of "The Martian" for a long time."
Huayi held a grand celebration cocktail party in the capital, inviting everyone in the industry.
Lin Nan did not go, he accompanied Liu Yifei to watch "Madagascar 2".
In the evening of that day, Wang Zhonglei called and told Lin Nan that Huayi would be listed on the Mainland GEM in the second half of the year.
Lin Nan remembers that Wang Zhonglei vowed to go public in the United States before. He was probably frightened by the subprime mortgage crisis.
Huang Xiaoming took the initiative to visit Lin Nan.
He got the role of the senior brother in "Ip Man 2".
"If someone else had acted in "Painted Skin", they would probably look down on this kind of supporting role." Lin Nan said with a smile.
"I am different from those people. As long as it is a work that I think is good, I can accept leading and supporting roles."
Lin Nan believed what Huang Xiaoming said.
Otherwise, why would I be the number one young actor in Mainland China and act in "Bubble Summer" produced by Bay Island?
But I have to say that this time, my vision is indeed a bit downgraded, and I am already on the way to becoming the president.
"Think about it carefully, you have acted in many of my movies, two of which I directed, and two of which I participated in investing."
Lin Nan suddenly remembered this matter.
"Haha, it's quite fate. I'm still waiting for Director Lin's "Painted Skin 2"."
"It will probably take a long time."
——
The media published the first-day box office of "Under the Red Cliff".
Compared with the previous part, it was a full 12 million less, with a reported revenue of 15 million.
The decline in word-of-mouth is directly reflected in the box office data.
Ning Hao decided to take the opportunity to do another round of promotion to gain more attention and viewers for "Racing".
Lin Nan was miserable. She was forced to appear on the show twice.
But not to mention, two big directors promoted the same movie together, and the effect was surprisingly good.
The topic of "Racing" in the media and on the Internet has nearly doubled in just a few days, surpassing the termination of the Fast Man Champion.
“Are these brokerage companies so ruthless in making money? Are they squeezing them to death and asking for sky-high compensation when the contract is terminated?”
Ning Hao looked at the news with a shocked expression.
"It seems like that, indeed." Lin Nan replied.
Tianyu has always been famous in this area, but who lets others rely on Mango TV?
Lin Nan thought of Hongxingwu. A long time ago, he suggested that Liu Xiaoli buy back Zhang Jizhong's shares, and the latter quickly settled the matter.
Now in the Hongxingwu company, Liu Xiaoli is the legal representative, and all the equity is in the hands of Liu Yifei and her daughter. They work for themselves and are very free.
"Have you ever praised a British actress?"
Ning Hao seemed to have seen some incredible news and said with a smirk.
“What’s going on?” Lin Nan was also confused and stepped forward to take a look.
"Myth" is going to be made into a TV series.
Jackie Chan is the producer, Tang Jili is the artistic director, Hu Ge is the male lead, and Bai Bing plays Princess Yushu...
Lin Nan wanted to retort, but he opened his mouth and couldn't find the words. He did say that Bai Bing was suitable for ancient costumes.
“At that time, when I was in the later stage of the production of "Painted Skin" at China Film Group Corporation, I came across Huo Wenxi and this girl going to Director Han to ask for the role of Xue Baochai, so I commented too much."
"This should be regarded as a top-notch TV series. It is spearheaded by Jackie Chan, produced by Shanghai Film and Television, and produced by Yinghuang Film and Television. Director Ren and Yang Shoucheng personally took the stage."
Ning Hao nodded and commented.
…………
With the box office results for the second and third days of "Under the Red Cliff" released.
The industry has concluded that, let alone surpassing "If You Are the One" and "The Martian", even compared with "Red Cliff", the final box office will be much worse.
After more than a month of publicity, Ning Hao’s long-awaited premiere is coming.
Liu Yifei changed into a long dress early, which was one of the outfits she wore when shooting for the "Vogue" fashion magazine two days ago.
Whether it is her hairstyle or her clothes, she looks several years older.
Lin Nan watched from the side, Liu Yifei was looking in the mirror, looking very satisfied.
Girls are like this. When they are young, they always want to be more mature. When they get older...
Lin Nan smiled helplessly. Even when she gets older, Liu Yifei also Don't pretend to be young.
“Stop taking pictures, it’s already very beautiful.”
“Hee hee, I think so too.
By the way, can you walk the red carpet with me today? "
Liu Yifei looked at Lin Nan expectantly,
"I'm afraid not. I'm one of the producers and I have to be with Ning Hao and the others. That guy reminded me several times. "
"Okay then. "Liu Yifei no longer dwells on this issue.
Today is Ning Hao's home court. Xing Aina is about to give birth and did not come.
After Lin Nan and Liu Yifei separated, they met with the crew and headed to the premiere together.
“I’m a little nervous for no reason, haha.” Ning Hao clenched his fists.
“After today, Director Ning may soon become a director worth 200 million.”
Huang Bo flattered him.
"Is this why you were promoted from a supporting role in "The Stone" to the protagonist in "Racing"?"
Someone made a joke and everyone laughed.
“Am I the kind of person who flatters you? I’m just stating a fact.”
The premiere of "Racing" was not as good as "Painted Skin" and "Mars" 》You select people like that, so there are many guests.
Ning Hao is the only two young directors who have emerged in recent years, and the other one is Lin Nan next to him.
So, there are many actors who want to support us. The people sitting in the front row were all acquaintances.
"Yifei, you are dressed very beautifully today. If you had known, you would have walked on the red carpet with us, haha."
Although Ning Hao was joking with Liu Yifei, his eyes were playful He looked at Lin Nan.
“What a great idea, it looks more beautiful.”
“Hey, hey, it’s not so harmful.” Huang Bo said with a smile.
Many actresses are a little bit sour, but Liu Yifei can already joke with a great director like Ning Hao.
The premiere of "Racing" didn't have much to do.
Soon, it was time for the video to play.
The one-hundred-minute movie, with six narrative clues, compact plot and rigorous logic, challenges everyone's IQ and attention.
In the end, all the seemingly scattered lines converged into one point.
The "Eighteen Farewell" after the subtitles is also very creative.
The scene erupted into violent applause. Many people reacted slowly and were still thinking about the plot just now.
Ning Hao took the microphone and was a little excited.
"The script of this movie was written with reference to "The Stone". Although it is a different story, they are in the same style."
When a reporter asked Ning Hao , when asked about the specific expectations for the box office of "Racing", the latter handed the microphone to Lin Nan.
"Director Lin is very experienced in box office estimation. Let him do it."
Ning Hao's operation made many people laugh at the scene.
"Okay, I'll do it. I'll do it." Lin Nan did not refuse.
"The production cost of "Racing" is only 10 million. Including publicity, it is less than 15 million at most. This is considered a small cost in a commercial film.
Director Dan Ning Everyone knows that "Racing" is not inferior to "The Stone", so it is still very possible to hit a box office of 200 million during the Lunar New Year period. "
Many people were stunned for a moment when they heard the figure Lin Nan said. They thought it was a bit fanciful to have a box office of 200 million with a cost of 10 million.
But then I thought, didn't the original "Stone" also cost 8 million and had a box office of hundreds of millions?
Now, more than three years later, it is still during the Lunar New Year period and it does not seem impossible to hit a box office of 200 million.
There is one more news material for today.
During the cocktail party, Lin Nan was stopped by a stranger.
"Hello, Director Lin. I am Zhong Lifang from Xiaoma."
A business card was handed over.
"Hello, what's the matter?" Lin Nan saw Liu Yifei in the distance, chatting with Xie Nan.
"Our pony has established a film company, and I am in charge of this. I hope to cooperate with a great director like Director Lin in the future..."
"Well, let's talk about it when we have the opportunity in the future."
Seeing that Lin Nan seemed a little unmoved, Zhong Lifang still kept smiling.
"Xiao Ma started his career in TV dramas, and he can also provide a lot of help to Director Lin's company in this area..."
Looking at the people talking in front of him, Lin Nan finally understood , why Ning Hao told him that this woman is very good at speaking.
He has indeed heard about Xiaoma company, and it seems that many of the top executives are relatives.
This kind of company has advantages in the early stage, but the disadvantages become greater the further it goes.
After more than ten or twenty minutes, Lin Nan got rid of Zhong Lifang.
“Are you good at chatting?” Ning Hao asked happily.
"Yes. But do you think I will cooperate with a company like this that has just entered the film industry?" Lin Nan asked.
"Haha, no. Pony is not even worthless to you, but it is different for others."
Ning Hao said, motioning to Lin Nan to look far away.
I saw a group of actors and filmmakers already surrounding Zhong Lifang, just like the latter did when he was next to Lin Nan just now.
This is the naked reality in the film and television industry.
…………
The title ""Racing" has a box office target of 200 million yuan" appeared in the media.
On the first day of its official release, there were a lot of positive reviews for "Racing" online in the afternoon.
"The duplex cemetery that extends one floor down, as well as the villa and CBD...it makes me laugh to death!"
"Being a killer, you have to do what you do and love what you do..."
"This It tastes wrong!
Can it taste right?”
……
"How much was it on the first day?"
"More than twelve million, which is pretty good."
Ning Hao was very satisfied with this result.
According to this data, it will definitely exceed 100 million. As for 200 million, it depends on luck.
If it doesn't work, let's see if the next "No Man's Land" can hit 200 million.
Many companies took note of Racing's first-day numbers.
"Let Lin Nan catch it again, so lucky."
Han Sanping said with emotion.
A commercial film with a cost of 10 million, it is another hit like "Stone" and will enter the history of film.
“After "Racing", Director Ning has completely secured his position as a great director.
That’s also good news for No Man’s Land if you’ve decided to invest in it. "
The secretary answered it at the right time.
"You're right, I fully invested in this movie. When it is released next year, I will choose a good time for it, haha... …”
Han Sanping has already acquiesced, and there will be one more credit on his credit book.
Ten minutes, Chapter 2.
Checking for typos.
