Chapter 309 Spring Festival, 1942
Lin Nan ignored one thing.
Yang Mi and Liu Yifei are different, especially in terms of film resources.
Miss Liu’s resources are the best among actresses of her age in the industry, and many people envy her.
There are also a large number of actresses who hope to follow Liu Yifei's path, but resources are hard to find.
Now that she encounters "The Legend of Hongmen Banquet" with an investment of hundreds of millions, it is impossible for Yang Mi not to be moved.
And not all actresses can have Liu Yifei's mentality. Lin Nan said it was a bad movie, so she decisively rejected it.
Sometimes, for young actresses, whether a movie is bad or not may be a secondary consideration. Promoting their status and building their resume are the most important things!
Lin Nan thought for a while and looked at Zeng Jia.
“Are you sure you’ve thought about it and want to take on this movie?”
"Well, Director Lin, we have already thought about it." Zeng Jia nodded without hesitation.
"Okay, now that I've decided, I won't say anything more. If you have any questions, feel free to ask Director Yue..."
Seeing Lin Nan nodding in agreement, Zeng Jia immediately relaxed Heartbroken.
"Thank you, Director Lin, I will finalize it with you as soon as possible."
…………
New Year's Eve is getting closer and closer, and the entertainment industry is becoming more and more lively.
Celebrities and artists are vying to appear on the Spring Festival Gala, and drafts are released one after another.
Lin Nan specially found someone to get some tickets with good seats, thinking that he could take Old Lin in to take a look...
"What are you looking for? What's there to look at?
>
I can sleep when I feel sleepy while watching in the house, but I can lie down and fall asleep when I feel sleepy while watching at the scene.”
This angry look made Lin Nan feel at ease.
“We agreed to come here, but why did you change your mind?”
“Forget it, there have been a lot of people visiting me recently, so I’m too lazy to look for you. "
Hearing this, Lin Nan really couldn't refute. This is indeed the character of Lao Lintou.
“Still those people?”
"Yes, those who don't know think I am a retired worker from the film factory. They are the only ones who give away the most things..."
Lin Nan knew that dad was talking about Xiying. In the past few years, it has been like this almost every year, and it is difficult to refuse.
I couldn’t persuade him any more, so Lin Nan stopped forcing me.
I told the other party to take care of themselves for a long time, but in the end they were rejected for being verbose, which was very speechless.
Lao Lintou suddenly changed his mind and stopped coming, so a few tickets were wasted.
Lin Nan no longer wanted to go to the Spring Festival Gala, and Liu Yifei was even less likely to join in the fun.
…………
Don’t look at it, it’s almost New Year’s Eve.
But Liu Yifei should sleep in anyway.
Early in the morning, Lin Nan was on the phone with Zhang Yi and several others in the yard.
The crew of "Pacific Rim" will spend New Year's Eve in Hollywood this year.
Lin Nan asked Tom to take Zhang Yi and others to visit the parties and receptions during the awards season.
“We went to the public relations receptions for the two movies “The Social Network” and “The King’s Speech,” and they were much more professional than the premieres in China..."
Zhang Yi Like someone who has never seen the world, he talks non-stop.
But one thing is funny. His foreign language proficiency is almost zero, and Jing Tian has been the translator many times...
What Lin Nan didn't expect was that the filming progress of "Pacific Rim" not only did not fall behind, but also seemed to be ahead of schedule.
I can only say that during the first half of the filming, the domestic team worked overtime and it was really amazing!
“So, it’s almost ten days away?”
“Yes, the Warner team estimates that filming can be completed around February 15th, and we can still rush back to eat. Lantern Festival, haha.”
“When I get back, I’ll give you my best wishes for the New Year.”
"No problem, Director Lin."
"Pacific Rim" is a large-scale co-production released globally. To a certain extent, it is more important than the previous "Inception". Lin Nan has to pay attention from time to time...< br>
After talking to Zhang Yi on the phone, Lin Nan also checked the news on the Internet, and sure enough, it had been reported.
“Overseas information, "Pacific Rim" will be officially completed during the Spring Festival."
"The co-production blockbuster "Pacific Rim" with an investment of 160 million US dollars is very likely to be released in the second half of the year or Released at the end of the year! ”
…………
It was almost noon, Liu Yifei finally packed up.
Today is a little better. He is wearing a light-colored down jacket, jeans and short boots, but his face is still very conspicuous.
"I've been waiting all morning. Did you agree on 9 o'clock?"
Lin Nan said with a slightly teasing tone.
I saw a smile on Liu Yifei's face, and said a little rogue:
"I fell asleep, so I forgot about it, but it doesn't affect us going shopping."
While talking, Liu Yifei pulled Get up Lin Nan and walk to the garage...
The entertainment reporters caught someone today.
Other celebrities are busy announcing whether it is this New Year's Eve party or that performance recording.
Only Lin Nan and Liu Yifei are different.
One is a great director and the other is a top actress. They are just wandering around outside, eating, drinking, shopping, and having a great time!
…………
Yang Mi is very happy now, because the company has agreed to her taking on the role of "The Legend of Hongmen Banquet".
“Didn’t you say when the contract will be signed?”
"You can sign it after the Spring Festival."
Zeng Jia replied. This is the reply she just received. After all, today is New Year's Eve.
Hearing this affirmative answer, Yang Mi was relieved.
She believes that this "Legend of Hongmen Banquet" will definitely take her career to the next level. But thinking about the news about "Pacific Rim" in the media, Yang Mi felt a little uncomfortable. It was a US$160 million movie...
...
Feng Xiaogang rarely showed off on Weibo.
"My two movies this year have grossed 1.1 billion at the box office. I'm a little tired. I'm going to rest on my credit and have a good sleep. See you next year!"
A large number of actors in the industry Artists like and leave comments one after another, all with nice words.
Many netizens’ comments are interesting.
"Director Jiang Wen can only sleep 70% full, Director Lin Nan is afraid he will have to sleep twice!"
The media, which has something to do, immediately exposed the results of Lin Nan Pictures' four movies in the whole year. come out.
"The Thief" is a director and screenwriter, "Xiu Chun Knife" and "People on the Road" are screenwriters and producers, and "Thirty-Three Days" is a producer.
The combined box office of the four movies brings the domestic revenue to 1.5 billion!
If you include the overseas results of "Thieves", my dear, it's nearly 2 billion!
No one had mentioned this before, but now that it was reported, the circle was instantly agitated.
When Lin Nan drove Liu Yifei back, the phone kept ringing.
Miss Liu was sitting in the passenger seat, picking people up one by one.
"Why are you joining in the fun? He is driving."
Before Zhu Yawen could start teasing, Liu Yifei came back with a sentence.
"I'm just here to congratulate you. Last year, the total domestic movie box office was only over 10 billion, and he alone accounted for one-seventh..."
After wishing each other a happy New Year with Zhu Yawen, Ms. Liu Just hung up.
She was still very happy, after all, today’s calls were all to compliment Lin Nan.
…………
The Spring Festival Gala will be impossible to watch in another two years.
Zhao Benshan couldn't stand it any longer and led a group of apprentices to perform "My Deskmate", which completely lacked the depth of the previous sketches.
……
I woke up from a dream on the morning of the first day of the new year.
Lin Nan said that it was impossible for Feng Xiaogang’s Weibo post yesterday to have no content.
This guy posted a new Weibo post in the middle of the night.
"Last year, because of the box office, everyone said that "The Great Earthquake" was a commercial film in the name of a disaster film, and many colleagues also had strong opinions.
I thought about it for a long time and decided that in the new year, To make a truly thought-provoking 'movie', we will not introduce other investors this time..."
Many people in the industry paid attention to Feng Xiaogang's Weibo, but they couldn't guess it for a while. What movie is it.
Lin Nan had some vague suspicions...
Liu Yifei got up very early today because she wanted to go see a movie.
Wearing a knitted hat, a scarf, a mask, and simple casual clothes, you really can't tell who it is, except for your temperament that you can't hide!
“Oh, you are still talking about me, look at you.”
As Liu Yifei spoke, she went back and got a black mask for Lin Nan.
"Okay, I'm a director, and I don't often appear in the camera..."
"No, ordinary people can't recognize you, but the media can spot you at a glance."
Reluctantly, Lin Nan accepted Liu Yifei's instructions and bought more masks and hats.
......
Liu Dehua and Gong Li acted in an urban romance film. To be honest, it was a bit abrupt.
Although the quality of this movie is okay, the formula is a bit old. After all, it is adapted from the Hollywood movie "100% Man" more than ten years ago.
Liu Dehua's "coquettish" acting is quite "charming".
Lin Nan couldn't bear to look at her coquettish look while wearing fishnet stockings and silk stockings.
Reminiscent of the Liu Dehua he usually saw, Lin Nan got goosebumps.
Liu Yifei looked at it very seriously and kept laughing.
"Look, even Brother Hua has a better eye for stockings than you..."
Lin Nan couldn't help but joke, talking about Liu Yifei's pink stockings.
"Huh, then you still..."
"Shh, keep your voice down..."
…………
The two movies released on New Year’s Day are "I Know Women's Hearts" and "Wonderful Heroes."
In Lin Nan’s opinion, both movies are probably difficult.
The only shortcoming of the former is that it is cliche, which is also the most serious shortcoming. Moreover, the two leading actors are too expensive, making it very difficult to make back the money.
The latter is just a bad movie, the routine is old and bad. The audience's evaluation is that it is too exaggerated. After watching it for ten minutes, you can completely guess what the plot will be...
...
Huayi announced Feng Xiaogang's new movie plan.
It was just as Lin Nan guessed.
"Director Feng wants to make a real movie, a movie that touches the soul.
To this end, Huayi has bought the copyright of the novel "Reviewing the Past 1942".
We will Invest 200 million to support director Feng Xiaogang in completing this historical disaster blockbuster..."
1942!
Lin Nan saw Huayi's announcement. The script for this movie has not even been started yet, it has just been approved.
The film industry has all turned their attention to it, and many people in the industry know this novel. It is indeed a rare and good book.
But when it comes to making a movie, the filmmakers who had this idea gave up the idea in the end.
As for the reason, it is too miserable...
The word "bitter" is not enough to describe the content of this book!
