Chapter 361 Blocked? Thoughts
"Director Lin, you should understand that great directors are very serious and even serious about their film works..."
Of course Lin Nan understands these truths, but Chen Hong What does it mean to call and say this?
“Sister Hong, what do you mean by this?”
Chen Hong over there didn’t hide it and said directly:
"Previously Director Chen was casting for a new play, and I was the producer. Yang Mi from your company came over to audition for the supporting actress. After many considerations, and for your sake, I finally cast her without even thinking about it. < br>
Before signing the contract, I made it clear that during the filming of the movie, she could only have one role, "Search", which is also Director Chen's consistent request..."
The more Chen Hong talked, the angrier she became. , his tone unconsciously became a bit harsh.
After all, following Chen Kaige for so many years, he has always been a top player in the industry, and that momentum has long been engraved in his bones.
After a while, Chen Hong realized something was wrong. The person facing her was no ordinary insider, and her tone immediately softened.
"Director Lin, that's the thing. I definitely don't want this person anymore.
Director Chen doesn't like to get involved in such trivial matters. According to my temper, I would at least announce a ban on the circle..."
Lin Nan felt a little embarrassed at this moment. He was lectured in person and could not refute. Because he knew that this was Yang Mi's style.
"Well, thank you Sister Hong for giving me this face. I think the crew's decision is very reasonable. I will go over to visit the crew another day..."
"Haha, Director Lin is too polite. You are welcome at any time. Yifei, come here.”
…………
It’s true that good things don’t go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles.
"I heard that Yang Mi was expelled from the crew of "Search" directed by Kai Ge?"
"She must have been replaced. No matter what, she was worried about Director Lin's face. ”
“Isn’t it common in our industry to take on several dramas at the same time? ”
"But that's Chen Kaige's movie, can it be the same!"
......
This kind of gossip about popular actresses will always spread in the film and television entertainment circles immediately, and many girls The actors were all gloating.
In addition, since Yang Mi has been kicked out, doesn't that mean there is another chance?
Many people are speculating on what will happen to Yang Mi who offended Chen Kaige and Chen Hong.
In the eyes of the latter two, what does a first-tier actress mean?
Some people are even looking forward to a contest between the two great directors. It's very childish...
At this time, Yang Mi and Zeng Jia were in a state of complete panic.
"Probably, it shouldn't be banned. After all, Director Lin..."
Zeng Jia said nervously, stuttering a little.
Yesterday afternoon, the two of them were "left" from the "Search" crew, and they have been hesitating whether to tell Yue Jun about this.
Unexpectedly, when I woke up this morning, the news spread in a small area...
"Let's go to Director Yue and tell him."
Yang Mi She was also very nervous and scared, but her remaining sense told her that she had to quickly find the company to help her deal with the aftermath.
When Zeng Jia heard this, she suddenly woke up, "Yes, yes, you have to tell Director Yue quickly."
As soon as she finished speaking, Yang Mi's phone vibrated.
The caller ID above clearly states the words "Director Yue".
"Hurry up and pick up."
While urging Yang Mi, Zeng Jia took out her mobile phone from her bag and found two missed calls.
Yang Mi answered the phone tremblingly, her heart beating fast.
There was no yelling or sarcastic words as expected, but a calm notice asking her and Zeng Jia to return to the company.
This tone of voice without any emotion made Yang Mi even more uneasy.
"Jiajia, Director Yue asked us to go back. Director Lin wants to see us."
When Zeng Jia heard this, her heart skipped a beat. Regarding her usual work matters, she They are all connected with Yue Jun.
…………
Lin Nan hung up the phone and wanted to laugh but couldn't.
In just two hours, many acquaintances in the industry called.
Everyone was asking him if he had any conflicts with Chen Kaige and if he needed mediation to make peace.
Han Sanping and others even suggested that they should set up a table in the middle. After all, Lin Nan and Chen Kaige are both top mainland directors, so it is best not to have any conflicts.
"There is quite a lot to think about. How can there be any contradiction in this trivial matter? Is it worth it?"
Lin Nan smiled and muttered. Thinking of Yang Mi, I was momentarily speechless.
…………
Not long after they went out, Yang Mi and Zeng Jia found themselves being followed by reporters.
When we arrived at Lin Nan Pictures, reporters even trotted up to us:
"Yang Mi, can you tell us about your departure from the crew of "Search"?"
The two ignored it and quickly entered the building.
Many employees along the way saw this company artist, a first-line actress.
"Director Yue has something to do. I asked you to go directly to Director Lin's office when you arrive."
"Well, okay."
......
There was a knock on the door and a "come in" came.
Yang Mi and Zeng Jia saw Lin Nan writing something, which seemed to be a script.
The two sat on the sofa and waited for more than twenty minutes. The office was quiet, but the two of them were very uneasy.
Suddenly, Lin Nan stopped the pen in his hand and looked at Yang Mi and Zeng Jia.
"Do you think that the more popular a star is, the more he should be in dramas, and the more dramas he has, the more popular he is?"
Lin Nan's face was expressionless, and there was no emotion in his voice.
Zeng Jia didn’t know how to answer, but Yang Mi nodded blankly, that’s how she understood it.
"Chen Hong wants to ban you..."
Hearing this sentence, Yang Mi lost control of her emotions instantly, "I didn't delay any of her scenes, it's just that I didn't have any part in the scene. When I was there, I wasn’t on the set.”
"Yes, you are right. But you seem to be hiding something. Actors in "Search" are not allowed to participate in other dramas at the same time?"
"I, I..."
Yang Mi’s face turned pale, and Zeng Jia’s face next to her also didn’t look good. Do you really want to ban her? Chen Kaige has this strength!
"Maybe I should have talked to you earlier." Lin Nan glanced at the two of them.
“As you might imagine, the more popular you are, the more you will be involved in dramas. This is very common in the industry, but since you promised the crew not to be involved in dramas, you should do it.
I can understand Chen Kaige's request. For a great director, he definitely hopes that the actors can fully integrate into their own drama. Interrupting the scene can easily affect the role's substitution and affect the actor's state.
You don’t have Tony Leung Ka Fai’s acting skills, so why should you dominate the director’s drama? ”
Lin Nan’s words are very naked, but they are true.
At this moment, Yang Mi’s mind was filled with the word “ban”, her eye circles were reddish, and her body was trembling slightly. Terror and fear remain, and so does Zeng Jia.
“If you continue like this, sooner or later it will be over. With so many dramas, how much energy can be put into each drama? How much has your acting skills improved?
The company has never forced you to work so hard to take on a role. If you are perfunctory in the first place, you will know later that you are perfunctory in yourself, and your reputation and impression will plummet..."
Lin Nan stopped talking, wiping tears. What the hell? How old are you?
At this time, Zeng Jia couldn't help but say, "Director Lin, are you really going to ban Mimi over there? "
"Haha, how about banning me as well? ”
Hearing Lin Nan’s words, the two of them instantly felt as if the death penalty had been cancelled, and were extremely excited.
Before the two of them could be happy, Lin Nan spoke again, "After this few drama appointments are over, you can take care of yourself. If you do this again in the future, I won't be as easy to talk to as I am today.
Now you can If you don’t take Chen Kaige seriously, you might do something else in the future! Don’t you think so?”
…………
Under the Lin Nan Film Building.
Yang Mi and Zeng Jia were sitting in the car, looking at the building in front of them, thinking about what Lin Nan just said.
"Blocked? It turns out that even if you get to the front line, you will be blocked!"
Zeng Jia glanced at Yang Mi, wondering why she said this?
"Jiajia, I used to think that A-list celebrities should have a high status in the industry, but now I know that is not the case at all. Mrs. Chen, don't you just block whoever you want to block?"
Yang Mi’s voice was full of weakness. She felt good about surviving the disaster, but she was still a little scared.
She seems to have forgotten that she did not comply with the requirements of the "Search" crew.
Zeng Jia nodded:
"The difference is that she is the producer and Director Chen is the big boss in the industry. They are resource providers and capital! They have great say and influence in the industry Power!
And you are just an actor. If it weren’t for Director Lin, I wouldn’t have imagined this time...”
After saying this, the car suddenly became quiet. Yang Mi and Zeng Jia looked at each other sharply.
Having been together for so many years, the two of them have a tacit understanding about some things. At this moment, an idea came into their minds.
"Let's go back and talk about it first."
"Well, okay."
…………
The crew of "Search" was quiet.
Neither Chen Hong's company nor Shanhai Media had any news, but the industry is very sure that Yang Mi has indeed left the crew.
This makes many young actresses in the industry feel regretful. Every first-line actress takes up a lot of resources, such as drama appointments and endorsements.
The collapse of any frontline means that a lot of resources will be freed up for others.
Obviously, Yang Mi held on. As for the reason, it must be because there is a good company.
“It’s really a pity. I can offend Director Chen Kaige without any problems. I really found a good backer back then.”
Cai Yinong was happy to see Yang Mi’s jokes, but it didn’t work out. People wish.
…………
To talk about cool operations, it has to be Yang Zai, who is extremely powerful.
Originally the three movies were all released on the 29th, but now that there were only three days left, Yang Zai made a series of tricks.
Juli co-distributor Fang Bona has moved forward the release time of "The Legend of White Snake" by 6 hours, to be released at 6pm on the 28th.
The last one to do this was Chen Kaige's "Mei Lanfang", in order to achieve better first-day box office results.
Other movies have a 24-hour first day, but with "White Snake", the first day is 30 hours.
And after six o'clock in the evening, it is obviously the peak time for movie watching.
This little idea has been criticized by many film companies in the industry. After all, the first-day box office is also a big promotional selling point in the future!
Guang Guang even came out to express his position, "If you don't have confidence in yourself, just say so. You'll just go through some crooked ways and you won't be able to get on the stage..."
Yang Zai just said it:< br>
"A large number of movie fans are anxiously waiting for the release of "The Legend of White Snake". In order to meet everyone's requests, we specially discussed with Yu Dong of Bona to release it 6 hours in advance, and the theaters also agreed."
"We dare to spend 240 million to make "The Legend of White Snake", just to be worthy of the ticket price in the hands of the audience. If they watch it happily, that is my greatest success..."
Lin Nan can't wait to see it. These two movies go head to head.
Wang Changtian is cunning and cunning. He has been silent until now. He is obviously holding back his big move.
