Chapter 396 Script, treat
It’s that time of year again when New Year’s Eve is approaching.
Looking at the situation this year, Lin Nan, Liu Yifei and others will probably have to stay in Hong Kong Island with the crew to celebrate the New Year.
Yinghuang even sent an invitation to Lin Nan, asking him to attend the New Year's Eve party with the crew.
However, Lin Nan discussed it with everyone and decided to have New Year's Eve dinner with the crew of "Genius Gunslinger" instead of going to Ying Huang's place.
On the other side, the news that "Thirteen Girls" lost the Golden Globe Awards has spread quickly, and everyone in the industry is watching the excitement.
Failure to win the Golden Globe Award means that the probability of "Thirteen Hairpins" winning an Oscar is even slimmer.
This will undoubtedly make the sale of film copyrights even worse.
So far, Chen Kaige is still the only director in China who has won the Golden Globe Award. Our position in the industry is as stable as Mount Tai!
“Are South Korean girl groups so popular? Today’s news in Hong Kong is all about them.”
On the crew of "Genius Gunslinger", Zhu Yawen grabbed the newspaper and muttered something.
Girls' Generation, a nine-member girl group from South Korea, arrived on Hong Kong Island this morning and heard that they would hold a concert here tonight.
The fans picking up the airport caused a short-term traffic jam at the airport and suddenly became a gossip headline.
"I heard that it seems to be quite popular." Luo Jin interjected.
"What? Do you want to take a look? I can give you half a day off."
Lin Nan asked Zhu Yawen while playing back the footage.
"Forget it, it looks good. But among the nine people, how many of them have real looks?"
"Then you can ask Director Lin for help. , see if he has channels in South Korea to keep you at zero distance..."
"Ahem, cough, cough..."
Before Luo Jin finished speaking, he was struck by Lin Nan's The cough was interrupted.
Because Liu Yifei and the other three girls were walking this way.
"What are you talking about?"
"Zhu Yawen is talking about the South Korean girl group, they are good-looking, Luo Jin and I are criticizing him, most of them have been punished there."
"Yes, you are criticizing him." Luo Jin agreed.
Zhu Yawen’s eyes widened, good guy, are you guys working together to hack me?
"I, I..."
"Okay, stop teasing him, get ready to put on makeup and get to work!"
Just when Zhu Yawen was about to defend himself, Lin Nan interrupted him .
…………
Long legs in black stockings, high heels, small suit, hip skirt, plus heavy makeup, waves and glasses……
This is the makeup and style given to Reba.
Lin Nan is not the kind of person with morbid aesthetics. He will not ask his artists to be thin.
Twenty-year-old, slightly voluptuous Reba, coupled with her ethnic minority looks, instantly gave off the air of a mature woman nearly thirty years old after putting on makeup.
“Pay attention to your appearance and temperament. Think about the scenes in school of those female teachers invigilating exams. In the scene, you are more professional than them.”
Age and appearance can be enhanced by makeup. It’s the difficult part, the worst thing is to take a few more pictures!
"Yes, I understand, Director Lin."
Lin Nan understood that it was indeed a bit reluctant to let Reba play this guest role.
But there is really no other better guest role in the movie, but fortunately her scenes total only three or four minutes. You can still take good photos with snacks.
Lin Nan also ordered the lighting engineer to try to make Reba look more mature.
“What are you looking at? Your eyeballs are falling off!”
Hearing Lin Nan's scolding, Zhu Yawen and Luo Jin were both a little embarrassed. They smiled and argued:
"Nothing else, just appreciation."
"Yes, Yes, enjoying it!”
…………
On the same day, the film schedules of “Thirteen Hairpins” and “Flying Swords of Dragon Gate” were cut to less than 1%.
This indicates that two movies will be released soon.
Film companies in the industry are unconsciously paying attention to their box office...
"Affected by "Pacific Rim", since January, "Thirteen Girls" and "Dragon Gate" The daily box office of "Flying Swords" has dropped significantly..."
""Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" was successfully released, with a total box office revenue of 521 million."
"Bona Chairman Yu Dong said that he was disappointed. This result has been very satisfactory. The company has achieved profitability and the stock price has risen..."
"The dream of a billion-dollar box office for "The Thirteen Beauties of Jinling" was shattered, with a total box office of 560 million, and its overseas box office failed even more!" "Three Hairpins" failed miserably at the box office, and they also parted ways. This investment in new pictures resulted in huge losses!"
Two blockbusters were released, and only one "Reverse War" with an investment of 200 million was added.
Movies such as "Pacific Rim" and "Those Years" took advantage of the situation to grab some schedules.
Lin Nan Pictures’ Weibo has posted a message of celebration.
""Pacific Rim" has been released for half a month, and the box office has exceeded 810 million, aiming for 1.2 billion!"
The production companies all understand the meaning of 810 million.
This means that the three-party account sharing ratio of Lin Nan Pictures, China Film and Wanda has reached 44.5%!
......
"Director Han, has the result of the application to postpone the release of the film not been announced yet?" This is the fifth time Ye Ning has pressed this matter.
Most of the box office revenue of a movie will be generated in the first half month of its release.
He is very worried about whether "Pacific Rim" can reach 1.2 billion before the end of January.
The box office of 1 billion and the box office of 1.2 billion, after paying the special film fund and surcharge, are divided according to 44.5% and 46%, the amount that the producer can get is about 100 million, but there is a difference of about 100 million.
Han Sanping was also helpless, "The bureau is still considering it, after all, neither of the two movies has been approved for postponement."
It would be a lie to say that he is not excited, but Han Sanping is also excited. With an extra 100 million divisible box office, based on the investment ratio, China Film Group will have 20 million more!
“I can only wait now, the children’s department won’t answer my calls anymore, haha...”
…………
Lin Nan was on the set and received an unexpected call. Fewer congratulatory calls.
Guangguang's, Huayi's, Xiying, Ningying...
Everyone is eagerly waiting to see whether "Pacific Rim" can break 1.2 billion in China.
Because the overseas box office has been announced by Warner
"In two weeks, the overseas box office exceeded 300 million US dollars. Not counting the subsequent audio and video copyrights. Director Lin, your movie Destined to make a lot of money!”
Yang Shoucheng personally came to the filming site of the SAT test center, and his words were not only congratulatory but also envious, and there was something else.
Liu Yifei, Zhu Yawen and others were shocked by the figure of 300 million US dollars. This was the news that just came out at noon today.
"It's okay. After all, you took big risks when you invested earlier, didn't you?"
Lin Nan looked at Yang Shoucheng, who was always smiling, and said modestly.
During this period, Yinghuang sent people here whenever he had something to do, and did a lot of big and small things.
Lin Nan and the crew felt more comfortable and relaxed when filming than in the mainland.
Lin Nan could guess Yang Shoucheng's intentions, so he simply revealed them today.
"Director Yang, our company will develop a movie project later, and Ying Huang can join us."
Hearing this, Yang Shoucheng was instantly excited.
"Director Lin, is it "Ip Man 3"?"
Lin Nan shook his head, "Let's talk about it then, I will let someone inform Director Yang."
Yang Shoucheng didn't ask any more questions. Lin Nan's promise was enough.
"Okay, I'm waiting for the news from Director Lin."
Half an hour later, Yang Shoucheng left the set with satisfaction.
"Lin Nan, what movie were you talking about just now? Wasn't it "Ip Man 3"?"
Liu Yifei asked with a suspicious look on her face.
“There are two script options, and I’m still deciding which one to decide. After we finish filming and go back, I’m going to discuss it with Lu Yang.”
…………
The shooting continues.
On the main camera side, Liu Yifei and Zhu Yawen enter the examination room.
Reba walked in the examination room on high heels, her English lines already memorized.
"Please write down your personal information on the answer sheet and pay attention to checking. The first part has 52 questions and takes 45 minutes..."
"Stop!"
Lin Nan's shout made everyone nervous, especially Reba.
"Reba, you come from the back of the examination room and face the camera. Don't subconsciously look at the camera, understand?"
Reba nodded blankly, "Director Lin , I will pay attention next time”
“Everyone is in place, prepare for...action!”
The same lines were repeated, but Reba was much better this time. His eyes were on the candidates on both sides of the corridor instead of subconsciously looking at the camera.
......
"Now I have to collect the papers, you have ten minutes to rest..."
Liu Yifei and Zhu Yawen walked out of the classroom quickly and ran to the bathroom, There are mobile phones hidden there.
The second camera lens is Luo Jin and Shu Chang.
When Liu Yifei sent back the first part of the answer in camera No. 3, Zhu Yawen in camera No. 4 did not move. He asked for another one million and transferred the money immediately via computer.
In camera No. 2, Luo Jin was furious and cursed emotionally, but it was Shu Chang who used his own money to advance part of it...
“I helped you with the previous one million. I deserve this million for cheating, which is the compensation for me being injured and hospitalized and missing the exam..."
...
"Ka! Done!" >
"The shooting of the remaining three parts of the practical test questions is the final climax of our movie.
This means that we are not far from finishing. We are here today!"
>Lin Nan called Jiang Yuerou over.
“New Year’s Eve is just two days away. Director Jiang, go find a better restaurant and book it. The budget can be higher. By then, the whole crew’s New Year’s Eve dinner will be there.< br>
In addition, the bill does not need to go to the movie’s budget, it comes from my account, and I treat you.”
Jiang Yuerou nodded and said with a smile: "Director Lin is very generous, so I will choose a high-end restaurant?"
Hearing this, Lin Nan also laughed: "I can only accept six figures at most. It’s seven figures!”
“Haha, don’t worry, Director Lin, it will definitely not be seven figures...”
