Chapter 293 Literary Romance Film
Lin Nan saw the final makeup photos released for "The Legend of Zhen Huan" on the Internet.
Yue Jun asked about the copyright, but it was too late.
The actors are still those actors, Sun Li, Chen Jianbin, Cai Shaofen, Jiang Xin...
The husband and wife team of Zheng Xiaolong personally directed the film and was unanimously favored by the TV drama circle.
Lin Nan saw Jiang Xin's photo.
Oh, we had dinner together back then.
Why does this beautiful girl look so much stronger now?
Even Liu Yifei was a little stunned when she saw the photo.
……
Sometimes character is something you really have to encounter something to see.
It doesn't matter that "Fist of Fury" was beaten by "Tongtian Empire", the key is that it was still beaten by "Hawthorn Tree", a literary film.
Since the third day, its daily box office has basically been locked below 7 million, with no hope of a comeback.
At this moment, Donnie Yen, who was so amiable during the promotion, suddenly changed his face.
When attending an endorsement event, he bluntly said that he was not to blame for the bad movie, it was the responsibility of the team...
In order to maintain his worth and image after "Ip Man", this "Master Ip" has become a little shameless.
You cannot have close friendship with this kind of person.
The premiere of "The Thief" is getting closer and closer, and the film market seems to be in turmoil.
At this time, Zhang Yimou came out again to add fuel to the fire.
"The movie "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling" will start shooting at the end of the year."
"'Thirteen Hairpins' has currently selected six people..."
"It will be set on 150 acres of land in Jinling..."
"Although we haven't filmed it yet, we have already decided The release date has been announced, which is December 16th next year!”
…
The first news about this movie came just after the Olympics.
In the end, instead of "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins", "Three Guns" came out, which disgusted all the viewers.
Now two years have passed, and we finally have accurate information.
Zhang Yimou's historical drama is destined to be another movie that is watched by countless actors in the industry.
The most important thing is that there are really many female characters in this movie!
For a time, countless actresses looked over.
In Lin Nan's opinion, Zhang Weiping would definitely be able to stretch out his claws in a movie with such a large scope for maneuver.
Especially in terms of casting, or intervening in plot filming.
Lin Nan remembered that the last "Three Guns" incident had already given Zhang Yimou some ideas.
If Zhang Weiping doesn’t have a long memory this time, the result will definitely be a breakup...
Miss Liu didn’t clamor to audition this time, because she had already decided with Lin Nan what to do next. film.
Time comes on the 24th.
After "Hawthorn Tree" received 45 million in five days, the total box office reached 88 million in another five days.
Looking at this strong momentum, it will soon exceed 100 million and will definitely break the record of "Mei Lanfang".
Last days of September.
In the film market, "The Empire of Heaven" is the dominant one, followed by "The Hawthorn Tree", and "Fist of Fury" has fallen into obscurity.
"Lin Nan, remember the premiere, you, the director, don't forget it."
Han Sanping made a special call to remind him that the venue this time was the CPPCC Auditorium.
Generally, only blockbusters or great directors would choose these places. If they fail, it will become a joke.
"Don't worry, how could I forget the premiere of my movie."
Lin Nan admired Han Sanping for having such worries.
"Sword Rain" is really miserable.
It seems that there is no environment for pure martial arts films to survive in China.
This movie, with an investment of 14 million US dollars and nearly 100 million, only had a box office of 5.5 million on the first day.
How to play this?
Lin Nan heard that it was released overseas two days earlier, and the box office was extremely bad. Wu Yusen became cannon fodder this time.
Now, among all the movies in September, there is only one "Thieves".
All the media turned their attention.
…………
The morning of the 29th.
Lin Nan sat calmly in the garden eating melon seeds.
The driver is waiting nearby.
"Would you like to sit down and have something too?
Yifei probably needs half an hour to an hour."
"Thank you, Director Lin, I will No need.”
The driver smiled and refused. Others are polite, but you have to be measured.
After a long time, Liu Yifei's female assistant walked out first, followed by Liu Xiaoli and Liu Yifei.
Today, Miss Liu is wearing a light blue gauze skirt and her high heels are a bit high.
On her smooth neck, there is only a simple platinum necklace and a bracelet on her right wrist, making her look like a lady.
Looking at Liu Xiaoli again, she looked very noble wearing the glass jade necklace that Lin Nan gave her before.
Today the mother and daughter will go to the premiere together.
“Let’s go.”
…………
The cast of “Thieves” is very strong.
The starring team of ten people, headed by Andy Lau, Leung Ka-fai, and Zhang Hanyu, made the media extremely excited.
“Tell me, how ridiculous is it that the director is not with the actors?”
Zhang Yi joked with a smile.
"What you said, I can help you relay it to Director Lin or Yifei later." Luo Jin said with a smile.
“It’s a joke, it’s a joke, don’t take it seriously.”
“Director Lin is probably with Yifei, right?” Fan Bingbing rolled his eyes and guessed it.
Fan Bingbing believes that her luck is really good this year. Although she has several dramas, there are only two that she values the most.
One is "The Orphan of Zhao" by Chen Kaige, and the other is "The Thief" by Lin Nan.
She is the only one in the industry to participate in films directed by Palme d'Or and Golden Lion at the same time.
What's more, Lin Nan's commercial films have always been very good at the box office...
"Let's go to the red carpet first. It seems that we won't be able to wait for Director Lin for a while." Liu Dehua suggested road.
“Okay, let’s go first, so as not to have a main creator inside, which is not good.”
Liang Jiahui nodded in agreement.
Ten people walked onto the red carpet, which was a spectacular scene.
Among them, Fan Bingbing was dressed in a red dress and crushed Yan Danchen to death.
......
At this time, there were many guests in the auditorium.
Zhang Yimou reciprocated the favor and came to support him, bringing with him the newly signed Zhou Dongyu.
From time to time, people come over to inquire about "The Thirteen Hairpins of Jinling".
Han Sanping is the absolute center, with almost all the big names surrounding him.
After Liu Dehua and others entered the venue, they instantly blended into the crowd. …………
A car parked outside and Lin Nan stepped out.
Then he helped Liu Xiaoli get out of the car first, and then Liu Yifei...
The reporters were excited, the real owner was here.
"Director Lin, I wish you a big hit at the box office.
Put on a pose with Yifei and give us something to eat, haha..."
"Then you have to take better pictures."
"No problem."
"Absolutely no problem..."
Liu Xiaoli looked on and laughed. My silly daughter used scissorhands again.
……
The premiere of "Thieves" was hosted by Han Sanping, and the size and quality of the guests were unparalleled.
The moment Lin Nan, Liu Yifei and her daughter came in, they were noticed by most people.
"Sissi, take aunt to her seat first."
"Well, mom, let's go over there, in the first row."
......
Lin Nan walked towards the crowd, and the voices of greetings kept coming and going.
At a glance, they are all acquaintances, and none of them have worked with me.
"Director Han, let's make a quick decision today. We can put the reception and socializing later..."
Han Sanping nodded, business matters are more important.
"It will start in a moment."
…………
Half an hour later, the venue became quiet.
Ten people including Lin Nan and Liu Dehua sat in a row on the stage.
In the first row below, Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli are sitting in the middle, with Han Sanping, Zhang Yimou and others beside them.
After looking at each other and Liu Yifei, Lin Nan started to get down to business.
"Many friends from the media may wonder why the promotion of "Thieves" only started half a month before its release."
There were many chattering and nodding in agreement.
“Actually, I don’t think it’s necessary to be so early.
Since I set the release date of “The Thief” on September 30th.
As you can obviously see, there are many I avoided the movie, haha..."
After saying this, many people laughed. Lin Nan was a little immodest today, but what he said was true.
…………
Reporters are very bold.
"Interviewing Liu Tianwang, which movie do you think will have a higher box office, "The Empire of Heaven" or "The Thief"?"
So many people in the audience thought that Liu Dehua would I went round, but I didn't expect him to be very direct.
"To be honest, I am optimistic about "The Thief"."
"Isn't it because today is the premiere of "The Thief"?"
"No. Director Lin's commercial films are obvious to all, and I He also pointed at him to wash away my bad reputation as a box office poisoner, haha..."
Even Lin Nan accepted Liu Dehua's answer.
Let me insult myself first. It is Lin Nan’s fault that the box office is good. If it is not, he will take the blame.
This emotional intelligence is very high.
The reporter did not stop and the leading actors went to ask questions one by one.
......
"I think our "Thieves" can set a new box office record..." Fan Bingbing said with a smile.
……
The movie officially premieres.
From the very beginning, there is a seductive scene where Fan Bingbing and Hui Yinghong pretend to be mother and daughter.
Under the tight clothes, Fan Bingbing’s perfect figure made the media and industry colleagues stare wide-eyed...
Is it so eye-catching from the beginning?
Director Lin’s play is a little different from the previous ones!
...
Luo Jin was attacked on the breast by a gay man...
Fan Bingbing and Luo Jin kissed...
...
Lin Nan admitted that this The play is indeed a bit different from my previous ones.
The two-hour movie ended quickly, leaving the audience a little unsatisfied.
The comedy effect is very good, there are many action scenes, there are many difficult special effects shots, and the IQ is online...
Many people think that Lin Nan's movie may be really possible. ...
"Don't ask me what my box office expectations are. I won't answer this question today. I will let the audience and fans give the answer after it is released."
Lin Nan took the lead and set the tone.
A group of media members were a little confused. If they didn't ask this question, what would they ask? This is what everyone wanted to ask the most.
"Director Lin, do you have any plans for a new movie after "The Thief"?"
Lin Nan glanced at Liu Yifei, who had a smile on his face.
Looking at each other, Liu Yifei's eyes seemed to be saying: "Answer quickly!"
"Yes, yes."
After Lin Nan finished speaking, everyone looked at him, "Good guy, a big fish exploded out."
This is the first time Lin Nan has such a high work efficiency!
In the first row, Han Sanping, Ye Ning and others looked at Lin Nan. Even Liu Dehua and others on the stage were curious.
What movie? Does it conflict with my own schedule?
"Director Lin, can you tell me what movie it is?"
A reporter asked impatiently, "There will be a bumper harvest today."
"Then let's take advantage of today's occasion to tell you something."
The field fell silent for a moment.
"I'm going to make a literary romance film next..."
Now the actors are more excited than the media.
They don’t need to pay for the artistic films directed by Golden Lion!
I saw Lin Nan continue to say: "It's still because of director Zhang Yimou."
Zhang Yimou below instantly remembered "The Hawthorn Tree" with a smile on his face. This is the only reason. .
“I have already written the script for this movie, and it’s called “The Fault in Our Stars.”
This name sounds very literary!
All the actors were excited.
…………
By the way, “The Fault in Our Stars” is adapted from a novel, but according to the timeline in the book, the original novel has not been written yet.
