Chapter 375 Guidance, Shu Chang
When Lin Nan was woken up by Liu Yifei, he was confused.
"The script was killed?"
"Well, everyone knows that "The Genius Gunman" was canceled, what should we do now?"
Liu Yifei said with a grimace.
She had just finished reading the script and was filled with joy. As a result, I received many calls from acquaintances, all talking about this matter.
“Oh, I have a headache.”
Lin Nan was stunned for a while, and then took Liu Yifei’s laptop over.
The news on the Internet is indeed very lively, full of speculations about "Genius Gunslinger".
There are already a lot of messages on Lin Nan and the company's Weibo, including Liu Yifei's.
Many people in the industry also came forward to join in the fun, such as Feng Xiaogang:
“According to my experience, most of the scripts that can be rejected in one go are good scripts, especially those written by well-known directors.”< br>
......
"I believe that Lin Nan will not encounter anything with incorrect views or irrelevant things. So, I support him!"
Seeing Jiang Wen Weibo made Lin Nan want to laugh. When it comes to brushing aside, he feels ashamed in front of Jiang Wen!
Liu Yifei sat on the edge, scrolling through Lin Nan's missed calls.
"Dr. Han's, Mr. Ye, Mr. Wang, Shanghai Film, Xiying, Ning Hao... there are several others that have not been noted. Do you want to call me back?"
Answer After passing the mobile phone handed over by Miss Liu, Lin Nan shook his head:
“Forget it, just call them all back. I’ll go ask the children’s bureau what they said.
I hope he wasn’t beaten to death with a stick. That kind of thing." Lin Nan looked at Miss Liu and said with a wry smile.
Liu Yifei bit her lips and suddenly became a little frustrated.
“Well, I believe it won’t be.”
……
……
The outside world is very lively, and most people in the circle are not. I thought I would learn about Lin Nan's new movie in this way.
Wudang Mountain.
"Now that I think about it, you are really lucky to have chosen "Love in Seattle". Just by hearing the name, you can tell that it is a romance film, and there is absolutely no chance that it will fail the review."
During the rest time of the crew, Zeng Jia secretly said to Yang Mi.
The latter was not as happy as Zeng Jia imagined, but rather a little envious or regretful?
"What's wrong with you? There's something wrong with "Love in Seattle". You should be happy."
"Of course I'm happy. But have you ever thought about what does it mean that the script written by Director Lin specifically for Liu Yifei was rejected?"
"What does it mean?" Zeng Jia asked subconsciously.
“It means that the script must be very good. The content will most likely touch on certain points, maybe realistic themes or sensitive topics. This is much more influential than a romance movie!”
Zeng Jia nodded blankly, sometimes Yang Mi is really smart and reacts quickly!
“No matter how good the script is, it doesn’t matter to us. Let’s see how Director Lin handles it.”
"Well, I guess he will find a way to pass the review!" Yang Mi affirmed.
…………
Those in charge of film review have started acting like monsters again.
When Ning Hao's "No Man's Land" was rejected time and time again, someone from the review committee posted a sarcastic post on Weibo.
It is said that Ning Hao was immersed, lost and narcissistic in the honors of "Stone" and "Racing", unable to extricate himself and unable to see the reality clearly...
At this moment, Lin Nan was given the same treatment.
“Some young directors, relying on their past achievements and awards, always think that they can test the bottom line of film review.
Without any consideration of what harm their scripts will cause to society How many children are you trying to influence?
What are you trying to express? Young people, it’s better to take it easy! br>
Good guy, the movie industry is completely exploded now!
“What is in Director Lin’s script? How could he be so targeted by those old guys!”
“The more I say this, the more I think Lin Nan’s script is good!”
"Who was the last person to be targeted like this?"
"Ning Hao, Feng Xiaogang, Jiang Wen...all the great directors seem to have been 'criticized' by name."
...
"Gunner? Could he have failed the college entrance examination?!"
"I want to star in Director Lin's new film..."
...
Film Bureau.
Lin Nan had a gloomy face at the moment. He saw the posts of some people from the review committee on Weibo.
These people rely on their old age and pretend to be ignorant. No one's words will fall on deaf ears.
“Tong Bureau, you can’t use such a big hat randomly! What I photographed is not a domestic exam.
What else do I want to express? What am I insinuating?
< br>They are completely shameless and picky..."
Tong Gang took the time to meet Lin Nan. After all, he had said he would help before, but who knew that those people would kill him first and then tell him.
"Logically speaking, the background and content of your story really have nothing to do with the mainland. This is why I thought I could give it a try.
But you have to know, we are also taking exams If you can get in touch with a big country, you may be used to make trouble."
"Qingfeng can't read, why bother reading books?"
Hearing Tong Gang's words, Lin Nan couldn't help but tease.
"That's it." Tong Gang said angrily.
"You have also read the script. The ending is completely just. Those who surrender surrender and those who are arrested are arrested. It also reflects the reality of the gap between rich and poor.
Why can't we look at it from the front? From a perspective, this movie can serve as a warning to those real cases in reality and people who have these thoughts..."
Lin Nan said methodically. He didn't want this book to be cut across the board, that would be a pity.
Tong Gang nodded. He thought the script was quite good. The troublesome thing now is the "influence". This matter all depends on one mouth, whether it is big or small.
After a long time, Tong Gang glanced at Lin Nan:
"Let's go back and change the script, change the place of origin of all the characters, change the shooting location, and avoid everything that needs to be avoided.
There is also a warning at the end of the script, which will be highlighted in the final film..." "Not only is the story set in Hong Kong Island, but the filming location is also moved there."
“Yes, you can leave a few scenes to be shot in the mainland, so it can still be considered a mainland product and production.”
Lin Nan knew that this should be the only way now. Making it into an imported film will only be more troublesome.
“Are you sure that if I change it like this, it will pass the next review?”
“Go ahead and make the changes. If you send the script this time, don’t send it to the review office. Take it directly to my office. Come..."
Hearing this, Lin Nan understood instantly, "I understand, thank you Tong Ju"
…………
When Lin Nan left the film bureau, he was blocked by many media.
"Director Lin, did you come to the Film Bureau today because of "The Genius Gunman"? Is there any improvement in the script?"
"After listening to the guidance of Tong Bureau today, I will Modifying the script."
"Can I reveal the content of the script?"
"No, it needs to be kept confidential."
In less than an hour, new news came out again in the circle.
"Director Lin still has room for maneuver in his new film, and has already begun to revise the script."
"The script of "The Genius Gunman" will be revised and will be submitted for review again soon..."
......
The actors in the industry are very excited.
It seems that Lin Nan's new movie is stable. As long as it is given a chance to revise, it means that it will most likely pass in the end.
“You can start asking about the casting news!”
……
Lin Nan did not return to the villa. After calling Liu Yifei to tell Liu Yifei about the matter, he went to the company .
Originally, he was thinking of choosing the filming location in Nortel.
But now, we have to consider new shooting locations, and we have to find others for help on Hong Kong Island.
Tom’s overseas phone call came in. It must be midnight over there.
But judging from this guy's current urinary behavior, he is probably attending a cocktail party. After all, it's awards season.
"Lin, I heard that your movie script was rejected? Why not come over and make an English film.
I just met Leon, and he asked me to remind you that you still owe him Script..."
"Stop talking nonsense and get down to business."
Listening to the faint sounds of the party over there, Lin Nan knew that he had guessed correctly.
"Okay, James agreed to 40% of the investment share, the contract has been signed, and we are making preparations for the start of the machine these two days."
"What is the budget?"
“James’ side requires 16 million U.S. dollars, but our team believes it can be reduced to 12 million U.S. dollars.”
"Okay, very good."
Lin Nan was mentally prepared for the budget of "The Conjuring". Being able to get it to 12 million is already very impressive.
"That's it. Tell Leon for me that I haven't forgotten the script."
"Okay, Lin."
…………< br>
The news that "The Genius" will revise the script and resubmit it for review has spread in the circle.
Some things cannot be avoided, such as inquiries from several partner companies.
"There are not many characters this time, and there are no fancy special effects. The focus is on plot, so the investment is not big."
Han Sanping, Wang Changtian, Ye Ning and others heard this one after another. With just one sentence, I immediately understood what Lin Nan meant.
In other words, Lin Nan Pictures will not accept investment from other companies for this movie, and plans to make it on its own.
"What about the casting?" Ye Ning asked when hanging up the phone.
"There will be no public auditions, let's talk about it later."
"Okay, I understand."
When Yang Shoucheng's call came in, Lin Nan also subconsciously I thought he would ask about investment or casting, but it turned out not to be the case.
"If Director Lin comes to Hong Kong Island to shoot a new movie, you can tell me and Yinghuang will help as much as possible..."
"Good guy, you are indeed an old fox! You can guess this." Lin Nan muttered in his heart.
I will definitely not refuse if I refuse, "Let's wait a few days. If everything goes well, I will contact Director Yang."
As soon as Lin Nan finished speaking, there was a message from over there. laughter.
"Hahaha, okay. If Director Lin comes over, I will definitely hold a banquet for you..."
It can be heard that Lin Nan's reply made Yang Shoucheng very happy.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Nan shook his head helplessly, "I guess I'm going to Hong Kong Island."
…………
When I returned to the villa, there was an extra person at Liu Yifei's side. figure.
"Haha, who is this? He looks strange."
"Sissi, look at him."
Shu Chang hugged Liu Yifei's arm, pretending to be pitiful.
"You ask yourself, and I will help you get here."
Liu Yifei said slyly, leaving Shu Chang aside and winking at Lin Nan.
Shu Chang immediately changed his smile and said, "Brother, let's discuss something."
