Chapter 504: Who am I? What do I care about?
When I came, I didn’t see Tom. When I left, I actually came to deliver the goods in person.
"Lin, Crystal, see you at the end of the year. At that time, we will also hold a public relations reception..."
Hearing this, Lin Nan really didn't know how to complain about Tom. I think about the cocktail party all the time.
Liu Yifei beside her was also amused by this guy.
"You'd better take good care of your feet first."
"Soon, soon. The Chinese medicine doctor said, it only takes a hundred days..."
Good guy, "Injury "One hundred days to move the muscles and bones" is out!
Lin Nan smiled and gestured to Tom, then took Liu Yifei's hand and walked into the waiting hall.
…………
Capital time, 15 hours ahead of Los Angeles, entering May Day in advance.
The domestic film and television industry has exploded with the box office of "Youth" and the box office of "One Man's Martial Arts".
None of this matters anymore, director Lin Nan really signed up for the Oscars!
"Oscar Academy Newsletter: Directed by Chinese director Lin Nan, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Naomi Watts, Jessica Chastain and others.
The movie "Invisible "Guest", meets the registration requirements, has officially registered for the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences Awards, and has declared for all individual awards. ”
As soon as this news reached China, it was picked up by major media outlets.
More than a week ago, everyone was still not completely sure what Lin Nan’s purpose was for holding a movie screening.
Now, everyone is shocked by the news, and they are shocked beyond words.
This is the first mainland director to shoot a foreign language film and compete for Oscars!
“When will he come back?”
"Look at the news, Director Lin and the others were on the plane last night. Calculate the time, they will be back this morning."
"Keep an eye on it. When he comes back, remind me."
"Okay, Director Han."
The big directors in the industry have become the targets of media interviews.
Ask them what they think of Lin Nan Chongao.
Chen Kaige has always been serious;
“This is a bumpy and difficult road. In my opinion, Lin Nan is a bit irrational to compete for the Oscar so early.
He should settle down for a few more years. At least wait until you are thirty-five years old and have more experience and experience..."
Zhang Yimou was interviewed during the Nortel audition:
"He is a young director. It is normal to dare to fight and rush forward. I definitely support and encourage it. The sooner this happens, the better.”
"Awarded? Then I wish him good luck." Feng Xiaogang replied on the set of "Private Customization".
Jiang Wen, Jia Zhangke and others all unanimously support it. The sooner we accumulate experience, the better.
…………
I slept for nearly ten hours on the plane, and when I opened my eyes, it was already time to arrive.
“Hey, do you want something to eat?”
Liu Yifei handed over some oranges, which were already peeled.
"Are you hungry? Go back for a big meal later."
Lin Nan took the orange and said softly.
"Well, okay."
Liu Yifei nodded immediately and responded with expectation in her smile. She is also a foodie.
…
The plane landed.
Lin Nan and Liu Yifei, wearing sunglasses and masks, followed by assistants, joined the crowd and walked toward the exit together.
You can also see movie advertisements on both sides, "To Youth", "One Man's Martial Arts", "Iron Man 3", "China Partner"...
May Day holiday, The flow of people at the airport has also increased several times.
They originally thought they could get through it, but it turned out that Lin Nan and Liu Yifei were overthinking it.
Even if they were separated from the assistant, it would not help, they were still blocked.
“Let me tell you, do you all have sharp eyes?”
Next to the vehicle in Hongxingwu, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei were forced to accept an interview.
"The main reason is that Director Lin and Yifei are too conspicuous. One is handsome and the other is beautiful. No matter how well they are disguised, their temperaments are not ordinary and they are easily exposed."
A Sina reporter wearing glasses said with a smile and a loud voice.
Damn, what a talent.
Lin Nan and Liu Yifei looked at each other and smiled.
Reporters from other media also looked at the colleague next to them: You kid beat me to it!
Lin Nan looked at the reporter and joked: "I will definitely suggest Director Cao to give you a salary increase later."
"Then you'd better answer one more question for me, haha..."
"Ask, let's solve it quickly. We were in a hurry to go back to fill our stomachs, and we only ate a little bit of food on the plane."
......
"Director Lin, when did you decide to compete for the Olympics this time?"
"A few years ago, I owed a favor and promised Leonardo, it was just delayed until the end of last year.”
"Are you sure about this Olympic challenge?"
"Are you sure? Who dares to say that there is such a thing? You can only try again and again. If it doesn't work once, try twice."
......
"Are you ready for your new movie?"
This question made Lin Nan pause for a moment, and finally encountered something different.
"We are preparing, but we cannot disclose it now."
"Yifei, "Frozen"..."
...
It has been delayed for more than half a month. When they were young, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei finally got rid of the reporters.
“Let’s go to the private kitchen first.”
As soon as she got on the bus, Ms. Liu shouted to the driver that these were her employees of Hongxingwu.
When I turned on my phone, I saw text messages popping up one after another, and there were many missed calls.
"Ning Hao's script is ready, let's take some time to go over and get together. You want to congratulate me on winning the Oscar a year in advance? What, haha..."
Lin Nan You’ve already taken it, but you still have to wait a year in advance?
Many people in the circle sent him text messages, asking him to get together when he comes back. They probably wanted to ask about Oscar.
"Script? Forget it, his scripts are generally not suitable for me."
Liu Yifei's interest dropped instantly. "When the time comes, let's go and have a look. He is asking me to participate in investment and nominal production."
"Yes, okay."
No. In half an hour, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei arrived at their destination and had a good meal first.
...
News from the media comes out very quickly.
"Director Lin Nan and Liu Yifei landed at the Capital Airport in the morning."
"The Olympic film "The Invisible Guest" had been decided for Lin Nan several years ago. The director's work of returning a favor..."
"Liu Yifei revealed that "Frozen", in which she participated in dubbing, will be released in the North American market by the end of the year, and may be released simultaneously with the mainland. "
"Director Lin responded positively, and the new film is already being prepared."
......
Many people have seen the news online, so much so that Lin Nan can't even eat a meal. Because his cell phone keeps ringing, he might as well turn it off first.
Oscars are a trivial matter now, and the industry is more interested in Lin Nan’s new film.
Since "The Genius Gunman", Lin Nan has only filmed one film, "The Invisible Guest".
Although the cast of the latter is extremely strong, it is a foreign language film after all, so it is useless no matter how greedy everyone is.
But what Lin Nan said, the movie being prepared, in everyone’s opinion, is definitely a Chinese film.
At present, looking at the entire film and television industry, Lin Nan's movies are definitely the number one cake, no doubt.
Zhang Yimou's "Return" also made countless actors in the industry feel regretful and regretful.
At this moment, everyone is eyeing Lin Nan's new film again, which is more attractive than "Return"!
…………
After eating and drinking, I feel very at ease.
"Sissi, you should go back first."
"What about you."
Hearing Lin Nan's words, he originally looked naive after eating. Liu Yifei suddenly woke up, looked at him and asked.
"Go to China Film and Television for a walk."
Lin Nan said helplessly. She had just turned off her phone, and when she turned it on, she saw Han Sanping's text message.
"Oh, then you can drive this car and I'll take the other car back."
After kissing Miss Liu, Lin Nan got in the car and went straight to China Film.
Sometimes it’s really weird, isn’t it just signing up for an Oscar and being so excited?
After seeing Lin Nan, Han Sanping's first question was about competing for the Olympics.
"I said, Mr. Han, why do you ask this kind of question? This is an Oscar, how can you be sure of it?"
Han Sanping was choked by Lin Nan's words and realized that he The question is a bit silly.
"Not only am I concerned, the Children's Bureau is also asking me. If you really succeed, the Bureau will send you a congratulatory text message."
Huh? This topic was a bit formal and the standards were a bit high, so Lin Nan didn't dare to take it.
"I think about it too, but it's not something you can do just by thinking about it. You'll have to do public relations all the way..."
"By the way, tell me about your new movie. I see you're in the press Everyone said they were already preparing."
Han Sanping suddenly changed the topic, catching Lin Nan off guard.
He looked at Han Sanping in front of him and didn't know whether he should open his mouth.
If I open my mouth, will he call the Security Department and throw me out?
"Well, I'm still making preparations to lie to reporters."
Hearing this, Han Sanping was stunned for a moment and lost his face, "You are so young and you are so lazy day by day. Hurry up and make a movie. "
Lin Nan wanted to laugh. Which director is as diligent as him? Making at least one movie a year, is this called laziness?
Suddenly, something came to his mind and he looked at Han Sanping:
"Director Han, may I ask you something?"
"Say."
"Zhang Dapao gave you a nickname originally, and it is still spreading outside. What do you think?"
Han Sanping seemed to be annoyed by Lin Nan and laughed:
"I'm just a clown. Who am I, and what do I care about? You, you are just out of your mind to ask such a question."
"That's good, that's good..."
Lin Nan smiled and nodded.
Until he left Han Sanping's office, Lin Nan still felt a little unsafe.
But the next second, Lin Nan remembered someone and suddenly became happy: "Junior sister..."
…………
After leaving China Film and Television, Lin Nan Returned to the company.
Yue Jun had been waiting for a long time.
“"One Man's Martial Arts" has a good reputation. Wang Baoqiang's role is the most eye-catching, and Zhao Wenzhuo has also received a lot of praise.
However, our reputation is better than that of "To Youth" , but the box office has always been far behind, and it is hard to catch up."
Lin Nan waved his hand, indicating that Yue Jun should not pay too much attention.
“As long as that kind of movie is not too bad, it will not be bad at the box office. What is consumed is feelings, and if it cannot stand the test of time, we just have to play it slow and steady.”
Lin Nan didn't finish. That "To Youth" has a fan effect from beginning to end.
Whether it is Zhao Yanzi, Han Geng, or the original novel, they all have a large number of fans.
These are incomparable to "One Man's Martial Arts".
"By the way, how's the script going?"
Although Lin Nan said that he would see the finished script when he comes back, that was just an attitude, representing how much he valued it.
"Well, the finished product has been completed and is being revised and refined."
"When it's done, bring it to me."
"No problem."
Speaking of this, Lin Nan thought of another thing.
"The budget for "Ip Man 3"?"
"We are working on it. It will be out in the next two days."
Lin Nan nodded and counted the time. The film project will be announced in a few days.
Nowadays, "One Man's Martial Arts" has a very good reputation, and it is just a good time to take advantage of the situation and replace it with Zhao Wenzhuo. Anyway, Lin Nan will not use Zhen Zidan anymore.
