Chapter 397 is finalized, tidbits, a bad move?
This is the first time Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli have spent New Year's Eve separately.
The two phone calls lasted for nearly an hour.
Through the glass, she looked at the bustling crew in the restaurant and smiled unconsciously.
"Mom, I'm fine here. Lin Nan, Xiao Zhu and Chang Chang are with me, so you don't have to worry. We can wrap up and go back during the Spring Festival..."
< br>
After hanging up the phone, Liu Yifei walked into the restaurant reserved by the crew.
"Come and celebrate the domestic box office of "Pacific Rim", written and invested by Director Lin, exceeding 1 billion! Let's do it!"
Zhu Yawen held up a bottle of champagne and started to compare the bottles directly blow.
Liu Yifei sat next to Lin Nan, glanced at Zhu Yawen, and then joked with a smile: "He is too crazy."
"Let him go, tonight It’s meant to be lively.”
Lin Nan handed Liu Yifei a glass of red wine, "Celebrate!"
"Well, okay."
On the day before New Year's Eve, "Pacific Rim" has been in theaters in China for three weeks, with a box office It reached 1.03 billion.
Media from all walks of life are rushing to report on it.
Lin Nan Pictures, China Film and Wanda, these three companies have become the envy and envy of all production companies in the industry.
On the contrary, "Those Years", which was said to be a dark horse, had a box office of 50 million, with no room for improvement.
On the other hand, "Reverse War", co-produced by Ying Huang and Huayi, with an investment of 200 million, was also a mess at the box office.
After the first daily revenue of 10 million, the daily box office has continued to drop. It is estimated that by the time it is released, the total box office will be over 100 million at most!
There is also "The Magician" co-invested with Bona. Like "Reverse", the box office data is unexplainable.
When Yang Shoucheng was interviewed by the media, he had become embarrassed several times.
...
The news that Lin Nan booked a high-end restaurant in Hong Kong Island was also the headline in the entertainment news.
"Director Lin Nan spent NT$960,000 to book a luxury restaurant on Hong Kong Island, and the crew spent New Year's Eve together..."
"The domestic box office of "Pacific Rim" reached 1.03 billion and is about to enter the There is only one week left before the Spring Festival release! "
"The box office of "Pacific Rim" is 220 million in the third week, and "Pacific Rim" needs to get 170 million in the last week, otherwise there is no hope of 1.2 billion!
"Judging from the declining box office data in the first three weeks, the 1.2 billion target of "Pacific Rim" has little hope..."
…………
After New Year's Eve, it is the Spring Festival.
Early in the morning, Lin Nan met many actors and stars in Hong Kong.
When someone comes to visit, it is still on the first day of the Lunar New Year, so you cannot hide from them.
People we are familiar with, like Andy Lau, Jackie Chan and others, are much more casual to chat with.
Those young actors and actresses feel quite reserved, but they keep smiling and constantly looking for topics to talk about. Lin Nan felt a little embarrassed...
"In Hong Kong circles, the Spring Festival is a rare and good opportunity to make connections. After all, the place is small and you can visit in person."
Liu Tianwang's wife is five years pregnant It's been a month, and he didn't answer any notifications during this period. He had plenty of time, and now he was free to chat with Lin Nan.
“As a Golden Lion director, it’s rare for you to spend the Spring Festival on Hong Kong Island. Artists that various companies can connect with are not allowed to come over and become familiar with each other?”
Lin Nan really couldn't refute this.
In the morning, he met many celebrities, including Simon Yam, Huang Baiming, Wu Zhenyu, Wen Jun, Yuan Heping, Zhang Jin and his wife, Nicholas Tse, Bai Bing...
The second generation of celebrities There are quite a few, and the leader is Prince Long, who was brought here by Jackie Chan himself.
There are also people who irritate Lin Nan, such as Donnie Yen, Eric Tsang...
There are also many female artists who are so thoughtful that they even took up the idea of Liu Yifei, one by one. Producer Liu yelled, saying nice words as he opened his mouth.
However, Miss Liu is not stupid, and her occasional naivety is only towards her own people. She is shrewd in front of outsiders.
Liu Yifei's purposeful flattery goes in one ear and out the other, and she doesn't take it seriously at all.
…………
On the third day of the Spring Festival, the crew returned to the filming site.
At this time, another piece of bad news came back from Hollywood.
The Oscars have announced the nominations for all awards.
In China, "Thirteen Girls" was selected to compete for the Best Foreign Language Film Award, and a backdoor was even opened for this, which attracted a lot of opposition.
Afterwards, the film's North American distributor signed up for "Thirteen Hairpins" to compete for 13 individual awards.
Now the results are out, none of the 14 awards were shortlisted, and they were all wiped out!
The domestic film and television industry is in an uproar. Zhang Yimou failed in the Olympics for the eighth time!
This means that the overseas copyright deal for "Thirteen Hairpins" is completely dead.
For a time, a lot of belittling and mocking voices came out.
“Facts have proved that it’s time for the old people to give up their positions and stop occupying the pit...”
“There are other outstanding directors in China, such as: Director Lin Nan, Director Jiang Wen... Director Lu Chuan..."
"Forget it, Mr. Lu, upstairs!"
...
...
Even if Lin Nan and others are on the set, they can feel the public opinion turmoil outside from time to time.
This time, Zhang Yimou was pushed to the forefront, just because his peers in the industry had accumulated grievances for too long.
“Is this true?”
During the break after lunch, Luo Jin ran over with today's entertainment newspaper, half excited and half excited.
"What's wrong?"
Liu Yifei was lying on Lin Nan's director's chair, covered with a blanket, taking a nap, and was woken up like this.
She narrowed her eyes and shouted, her rosy face was really pretty.
“A whole page is full of tidbits about director Zhang Yimou.”
Now, even Lin Nan, who was looking back at the shooting footage, became curious.
“Let me take a look.”
Lin Nan took the newspaper. The Hong Kong side reprinted gossip news from the mainland.
“What a guy!”
After just one glance, Lin Nan couldn’t help but marvel!
"Director Zhang and Ms. Gong, the crew acted as if there was no one around, and they were lingering..."
"In the middle of the night in 2007, International Zhang and Director Zhang were alone in the room for 48 hours..."
...
< br>"The girl and her mentor in "The Hawthorn Tree" are in chaos, and the room is open 24 hours a day..."
"The girl and Director Zhang in "The Thirteen Hairpins" spend three days and three nights in the villa..."
...
What a thrill!
Behind each title is a short composition, which is very realistic.
Especially the sequence is very clear, the time, place, and which drama are clearly written.
Liu Yifei, Shu Chang, Zhu Yawen and others gathered around, and then they were all stunned.
"This is so exciting!"
Zhu Yawen sighed, smacking her lips.
“Who else can write such a ‘real’ thing except the people around me?” Lin Nan guessed.
Who can really know whether it is true or not, whether it is true or false!
“Needless to say, the Internet must be very lively. As for the entertainment industry, it is probably a mess!”
Zhang Yimou is a top-tier director, and this kind of news is aimed at ruining his reputation.
"Prepare for the afternoon scenes first. Regarding the gossip, it won't be too late for you to go back and take care of it in the evening." Not only Zhu Yawen but also other staff members of the crew also started to chatter. In order not to affect the start of work for a while, Lin Nan shouted directly.
“Okay, Director Lin.”
It will be completed within three days, this is the time Lin Nan set.
Everyone started to move after changing clothes, putting on makeup, and setting up machines.
…………
The popularity of “Pacific Rim” has made Jing Tian’s star status a big step forward.
During this period, the number of announcements, endorsements, and drama appointments sent to Starlight has increased dramatically, and Zhang Yi will certainly not be less generous.
On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Jing Tian’s "Time and Space Rescue" was released.
To be on the safe side, Jing Tian never participated in publicity except for the premiere press conference.
Facts have proved that this decision is right!
“Don’t mention this movie in front of the media in the future. Even if they ask, don’t respond.
I will communicate with the theaters and take the initiative to remove this movie. Anyway, the cost is only It’s only 10 million..."
Lu Zheng told Jing Tian seriously.
"Pacific Rim" brought Jing Tian to a big level, and now he must not let "The Rescuers" drag him down, even a little bit.
"Uncle Lu, is it really that bad?"
Jing Tian asked reluctantly, she felt that she acted seriously.
But the box office of 750,000 on the first day was really eye-catching.
Lu Zheng couldn't help but sigh. He remembered Lin Nan's advice before.
"In the future, we still have to find reliable directors, screenwriters, and production teams..."
...
...
Zhang Ziyi has already posted several messages in succession Announcement, claiming that those who spread rumors will be held legally responsible.
Several young girls did the same thing.
On the contrary, Gong Li was indifferent to this. After all, those days were his real past...
...
"Director Zhang, we spent a lot of money and found a lot of connections. , it was finally determined that these rumors came from..."
"Is it from Zhang Weiping?"
"Well, Director Zhang knows?"
"Haha, who else but him? Thank you Mr. Jia for me."
"Director Zhang is too polite, there is no need to be so open-minded. Mr. Jia said that these rumors will disappear soon..."

…………
Lin Nan frowned and looked at each other with Zhu Yawen and the others. They looked at Liu Yifei eating cookies and drinking milk.
According to the script, the scene of inducing vomiting in the examination room will be performed by Liu Yifei.
This silly girl is particularly yearning for this kind of ugly show, and this time she finally has the chance!
"You'd better eat less and just spit out a little bit."
Lin Nan couldn't help but remind him that he originally wanted to fake the photo, but Liu Yifei just shook her head and wanted to do it for real. of.
Five minutes later, Miss Liu finally stopped.
……
"Okay, everyone is ready...action!"
According to the script, when Zhu Yawen and Liu Yifei were delivering the answers to the second and third parts of the test questions respectively, an accident occurred.
The former stayed in the bathroom for too long and was reported.
He nervously finished his answer as the staff urged him to open the door. The moment he threw his phone into the toilet, the staff kicked open the door and took him out.
As for Liu Yifei, because there were too many people in line for the toilet, she was rushed into the examination room by the invigilator as soon as she took out her mobile phone to send her answers.
She had no time to hide her phone, so she had to take it out. She saw Zhu Yawen being blocked by several staff members, intimidating and interrogating...
At the entrance of the examination room, there were already more people checking and entraining, so she only I was able to hide my cell phone under the water dispenser and enter the examination room.
……
Liu Yifei wrote down the answers to the third part of the test questions silently on the answer sheet of the fourth part of the test questions to avoid forgetting them soon.
She planned to send it back together with the fourth part of the test questions and the keywords of the paper after leaving the examination room.
In the monitor, a close-up shot showed Liu Yifei. She put the pen into her throat, and with just two strokes, she spit out what she had just eaten...
Liu Yifei left the examination room smoothly, took back her mobile phone and ran away. The invigilator discovered that the answer sheet was wrong and chased him out...
Transferring to the station, Liu Yifei was intercepted by a group of people. She finally sent out the complete answer, stuffed her mobile phone into a passerby's backpack, and was asked "Please "Go back...
At the same time, in the secondary scene, Liang Jiahui found Luo Jin and Shu Chang and asked about Liu Yifei's whereabouts, but they were perfunctory.
A large number of 2B pencils with answers were distributed. A group of people rushed to the examination room excitedly...
According to the plot, Zhu Yawen sacrificed herself and admitted cheating, clearing Liu Yifei of suspicion.
……
One was expelled from school and the other graduated from high school successfully.
“It’s easy to make money! Let’s do this from now on, easily make millions in one trip, and we won’t go to jail if we get caught anyway…”
Zhu Yawen smiled darkly. Then, Liu Yifei was invited to cheat on the Oxford entrance exam in the same way.
"If you are short of money, just take my share..."
"You refuse?"
Zhu Yawen's facial expression was ferocious.
"If you don't come with me, I will report you for cheating on the SAT, and everyone else. In the end, your father will be extremely disappointed in you..."
"I, voluntarily bear the consequences of the wrong things I have done. This is what dad wants to see..."
...
After two consecutive days of filming, the last shot was of Liang Jiahui taking Liu Yifei into the SAT test center to "surrender".
"Click, shut down!"
"I declare..."
"I'll do it, I'll do it."
Liu Yifei interrupted Lin Nan and ran over with a smile on her face.
Lin Nan consciously handed over the trumpet in his hand, "Okay, you come."
"I announce that "Genius Gunslinger" is officially finished!"
< br>Liu Yifei’s clear and cheerful voice spread throughout the entire crew through the speakers.
“It’s finished, oooh...”
...
Zhu Yawen and others took the lead, and the crew immediately started making noise. Everyone was very happy and excited.
The news of the completion of "Genius Crew" spread quickly.
“Produced by Lin Nan Pictures and Hongxingwu, directed by Director Lin Nan, produced and starring Liu Yifei, the movie "Genius Gunslinger" officially wrapped up in Hong Kong Island today!"
" Lin Nan Film Director, Jiang Yuerou said that the closing banquet will be held in the capital.”
...
""Pacific Rim" reported revenue of 100 million in its fourth week. 30 days after its release, the total domestic box office reached 1.15 billion. There is only one day left before the release, and it missed the 1.2 billion!"
"Director Lin Nan's account-sharing bet with the theater chain ended up falling short and he failed to get 46% of the account-sharing ratio!"
