Chapter 449 Participation
Perhaps "Sad Fairy Tale" has already booked its position as the worst commercial film in the second half of the year.
On the third day, the box office was still 2.06 million, but on the fourth day, it dropped directly to 1.03 million, which was terrible.
When Yang Mi's "Wudang" hit the streets, she was often criticized by Liu Shishi's fans.
At this moment, the opportunity for the "bees" to take revenge comes.
"Weren't we all looking forward to the release of "Sad Fairy Tale" before? Now that it's released, why is there no news? Oh, it turns out that it has the title of 'box office poison'!"
"Netizens have many suggestions. Okay, just make a TV series honestly. Actors like this with dull eyes, expressionless faces, no soul, and no class are not worthy of being on the big screen."
...
A movie. Although the movie was terrible at the box office, it still contributed a lot of gossip.
Everyone in the media is very excited and has come to the conclusion that the Tang Dynasty actresses seem to be very unpopular with actresses in the industry.
To be more precise, it was Tang Dynasty's past propaganda tactics that offended many companies and actors in the industry.
"It will be released on the 27th, so the premiere will be on the 25th. You go notify China Film Group and they will save you from having to worry about it every day."
"Okay, Director Lin." The assistant nodded. Left the office.
Looking at the news on the Internet, Lin Nan could imagine how bad Wang Changtian was feeling at this moment.
It is said that theaters have completely abandoned "Sad Fairy Tale".
Where have I seen this before? For a commercial film, the daily box office dropped to 500,000 yuan on only its fifth day of release?
This time I have seen it, it is fully produced by Guangguang! The heroine is still a very popular A-list actress, who would believe it?
......
From the outside, it seems that the casting of Yang Mi's "Tiny Times" has not been completed yet.
But she has already relied on this series contract to gain a large number of fans, all of whom are readers.
This also made her more convinced that her decision to choose this movie was the right one.
"Director Lin, I plan to set the start time of "Space Traveler" at the end of October."
When Guo Fan returned to the company to organize the filming staff, he reported it to Lin Nan by the way. Down.
“You are the director, it’s up to you.”
Lin Nan answered as he packed his things.
"Where are you going?"
"Someone is treating me to dinner and going to keep an appointment."
Lin Nan said with a smile, he was not kidding, it was indeed Ye Ning who was the host.
…………
The movie Wanda is planning to make this time is a very old series.
But it can also be described as putting new wine in old bottles, which is nothing more than using that layer of skin.
Lin Nan drove straight to the destination.
Lin Nan also called Liu Yifei midway. She wanted to say not to wait for him for lunch.
As a result, Ms. Liu temporarily went to participate in film activities as a producer.
I heard that the banquet was full of actors and directors, and some people were looking for investment from her.
"Okay, just take your time and play. This time, don't get carried away and watch some pseudo-artistic film. Last time, you almost invested 10 million."
"Are you laughing at me again? I You're making rapid progress, okay, that was all last year, don't keep mentioning it!"
On the other end of the phone, Liu Yifei was very resentful. Lin Nan had been laughing at her for more than half a month.
"Okay, if someone really comes to you for investment and you like the script, you can bring it back and I will read it for you..."
Hearing this, Liu Yifei immediately laughed. He said, "Well, okay, I know."
...
There were only three people in the hotel box.
Ye Ning, Lu Zheng, and Jing Tian.
After the waiter brought Lin Nan over, he immediately left.
"Director Lin."
"Brother Lin."
"Mr. Ye, Mr. Lu, Tiantian."
Lin Nan nodded in greeting and sat next to Jingtian.
Jing Tian, who has acted in many dramas, does seem much more confident than before.
"I'm curious, how did you keep Jackie Chan's salary down?" Lin Nan asked after taking the water Jing Tian handed over and taking a sip.
I saw Ye Ning smile mysteriously, "Didn't I tell Director Lin before that the relevant departments will participate in the filming and publicity."
"Yes, I am also curious, which relevant department it is. ?”
“The Publicity Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security will participate in the joint production and help with publicity, because this movie is originally meant to be a promotional film.”
Lin Nan suddenly realized it. , no wonder Jackie Chan would reduce his salary.
And the name of the movie also directly follows the "Police Story" series.
"The project has just been approved, and there are only Wanda and Starlight. We didn't bother Director Han. Director Lin, do you want to come?"
Lu Zheng said in time, the invitation was full of meaning. .
Lin Nan looked at Ye Ning and Jing Tian, and nodded, "Okay."
"Okay, then we'll wait until the accurate budget comes out Yes, I will inform Director Lin.”
Ye Ning said slightly excitedly, and added:
"Our current approximate budget for this movie is 100 million, and it is estimated that it will not be too far away by then."
Lin Nan nodded, "Okay."
While speaking, Jing Tian had already poured red wine for Lin Nan.
“I drove here.” Lin Nan was a little speechless.
"I can call a driver for Brother Lin."
Jing Tian said crisply with a smile on his face.
……
Let’s get down to business as soon as we arrive, and it will be much easier when it’s time to eat.
During the dinner, I heard from Lu Zheng and Ye Ning that Wanda’s film resources would give priority to Jing Tian in the future.
If this news spreads, there will be a group of actresses suffering from pinkeye in the industry.
“When will Director Lin’s next film be released?”
“It can’t be that fast, it may be late in China.”
An inadvertent sentence Ye Ning and Lu Zheng caught the key words.
“Are there plans to make a foreign language film?” the two of them exclaimed in unison.
Lin Nan smiled and said nothing. This only made the two of them more excited.
"If there is a chance, please ask Director Lin to give Tiantian a chance. She is very good at foreign languages."
Lu Zheng said hurriedly. Jing Tian nodded with expectation in his eyes.
Lin Nan was indifferent. Even if there was a chance, he would still choose Liu Yifei.
“Let’s talk about it later, my foreign language films may not be suitable for...”
...
After a meal, the investment was finalized, and it will be kept secret for now.
“At that time, when the crew decides on other roles, I will ask someone to send a copy of the script to Director Lin.
If the company has suitable actors to recommend, Director Lin can directly Say hello.”
It always feels inappropriate to say this before the project has even started.
"Okay. You can show it to me then, but I will still respect the crew's casting first."
Lin Nan did not refuse and said politely. Then he got into the back seat of the car.
Speaking of informal actors, he probably can’t decide on them. He only has a few people under his command, and they all have their own dramas.
……
Looking at the car driving away, Ye Ning couldn’t help but say:
"Foreign language films, Director Lin is afraid that he is going to compete for awards films?"
"It seems, the possibility is very high!"
Only Jing Tian felt a little regretful, it was indeed not suitable, she had Self-awareness.
……
Suddenly I became allergic to mango. I had never had this problem before. Now I am so swollen that I can't even open my eyes. There is only so much in this chapter, I will continue to fill it in later.
