Chapter 506 Assistant Director
Lin Nan really didn’t expect that Donnie Yen and his agent would actually come to the company and want to see him.
“Are you kidding? He wants to see me, do I have to agree?”
On the other end of the phone, Yue Jun’s laughter came:
“I think so too. There’s something wrong with their brains, it’s not obvious, they just don’t need Zhen Zidan.”
"Leave it to you, I don't have time to talk about it."
"Okay, I'll just give it to Yinghuang. They are doing the external casting anyway."
"Okay."
Reception room on the third floor of Lin Nan Pictures.
Zhen Zidan and his agent have been waiting since they were brought here by the front desk.
The two were told that Director Lin Nan did not come to the company often and that Director Yue Jun would come later.
The moment the door to the reception room opened, Zhen Zidan and the two stood up.
“Director Yue.”
“Sit down, what’s the matter with coming here today?”
Yue Jun asked, pretending to know nothing.
Zhen Zidan and Zhen Zidan knew very well that the other party was pretending to be confused and Ming was pretending to be confused.
The agent was not vague and spoke directly:
"Director Yue, we would like to ask about "Ip Man 3". Zidan acted very well in the first two films, but I don't know about this "One piece, when will the contract be issued?"
Yue Jun couldn't help but glance at the agent opposite, "Okay, I'm pretending!"
"Did you ask the wrong person? During the first two films, did you see Lin Nan Pictures getting involved in this matter? Aren't they all Yinghuang doing it?"
"But..."
"You guys should go back. The casting, signing of contracts, and filming are all handled by Yinghuang. We will not interfere."
Hit After cutting off the other party's words and not waiting for him to speak, Yue Jun continued to add: "I'm going to Bad Monkey Pictures soon, so I won't leave two more people."
After that, Yue Jun smiled at the two of them and nodded. He nodded and walked out of the reception room first.
……
Zhen Zi had a gloomy look on his face and looked back at the Lin Nan Film Building.
Countless illusions of turning over were shattered at this moment.
Yinghuang?
If Yinghuang would send him a contract, that would be hell!
“Zidan, let’s go. Let’s go directly to the airport and return to Hong Kong Island.”
It wasn't until the manager shouted something from the car that Zhen Zidan reluctantly got into the back seat, as if his face was frosty.
......
Lin Nan had just left home and drove to Nortel.
“Little girl, I can’t get through the phone yet.”
As I muttered, I arrived at the school gate, where there was a lot of traffic.
After all, it’s already May, and the annual graduation season is just around the corner.
Lin Nan's face can be used as a pass in school, one of his signatures.
The people from the security department let him drive in without saying a word.
“Hey, isn’t this Director Lin?”
As soon as he got off the car, Lin Nan saw Lao Zhou leading a few students. They didn’t look like they were students at school?
"Teacher Zhou, who are you?"
"Oh, they are freshmen, they came here to study in advance..."
Hearing this, Lin Nan was embarrassed to explain, what does it mean to study in advance? Come to study?
Coming to school more than three months in advance, is that studying?
I was looking for an opportunity, and it seemed like I had some connections in my family.
Every year before the graduation season, a large number of brokerage companies and film and television companies in the industry will appear in the three major art schools.
This is much more than the number of companies purely looking for new talents during the art exam.
Among them are some of the top film and television and brokerage companies in the industry, as well as big brokers.
"You are busy, I have to go to the graduate school."
"Looking for Director Tian?"
"Yeah, almost."
Lin Nan waved her hands and walked away.
A few students were still looking at Lin Nan's figure, feeling a little eager.
“Don’t look at it, Shanhai Media is not easy to get into. None of the contracted actors there are from Nortel. It’s true!”
…………
When Lin Nan arrived at the place, he realized why Han Jia'er's phone couldn't be reached.
Summer vacation is coming and she is taking the exam!
“I’m laughing so hard. If Director Han saw his daughter scratching her head and head in the directing examination room, I wonder how she would feel?”
“What are you talking about? Keep your voice down.”< br>
Outside the classroom, Lao Jiang caught Lin Nan and started chatting.
"Let me tell you, after she graduates, it's really different whether she will be a director or not."
"Why do you say that?"
"I was still regretting it a few days ago, saying that I should have done it in the first place. Department of Journalism and Literature. After one semester, I spent two-thirds of the time there, more familiar with Xue Xiaolu than with me!"
Old Jiang said angrily and pointed at Han Jianu through the window. :
“Don’t think about it, next semester is coming, I’ll take the make-up exam as soon as possible.”
In less than twenty minutes, the exam inside was over, and a dozen graduate students walked out one after another.
Lin Nan waved to Han Jianu, and her eyes lit up instantly.
"Brother Lin, why are you here, looking for me?"
"Yes, let's go to the small restaurant and sit down. It's almost time for dinner."
< br>"Okay, your treat."
"No problem."
…………
Lin Nan felt that he was overthinking and didn't even need him to deceive him. No, he was inviting.
Han Jia'v looked at him and already took the initiative to ask:
"Brother Lin, I heard that you are preparing a new film, are you still in need of an executive director?" Lin Nanrao He asked with interest, "So proactive?"
"Oh, um, I don't want to make up the exam anymore. I'll use my practical results instead, hehe..."
Looking at such a direct Han Jianu, Lin Nan had a headache for Old Han.
Han Sanping is a serious professional director, so he arranged for his daughter to be a director.
But now it seems that his daughter prefers the career of screenwriter, or may become a producer in the future.
"Okay. I originally asked you to tell me this, so that you can practice more before graduation and make your resume look better..."
Lin Nan started to lie against his will. What a sin.
"Thank you, Senior Brother Lin. You and I will go back later and talk to Teacher Jiang." Han Jianu became excited instantly.
"Listen to me first, this time it's not the executive director."
"What is that?" Han Jianyeo opposite was a little anxious.
"One of the assistant directors. Well, he will be responsible for connecting with the actors when the time comes." Lin Nan said pointedly.
"Hello, assistant director. I'm the assistant director. Thank you, Senior Brother Lin!"
"Thank you, too." Lin Nan muttered softly.
"Thank me for what? Just don't think I'm clumsy."
Han Jianu said blankly.
…………
The movie market is already a different scene.
"Directed by Zhao Wei, the movie "To Youth" was released for 15 days, with a total box office of 550 million, and the daily box office will reach more than 9 million."
""To Youth" is bound to surpass "Love in Seattle" has a box office of 582 million. Zhao Ji has become the first female director in the Chinese film market! "
"Directed by director Lu Yang, the film "One Man's Martial Arts" has been released for two years. This week, the total box office revenue was 440 million, the daily box office is still 8 million, and the 500 million box office is in sight!”
...
Among the Chinese films, the most eye-catching ones are "To Youth" and "One Man's Martial Arts".
Secondly, China Film and Chen Kexin's "Chinese Partner" has also attracted much attention and will be released in 8 days.
At this time, invitations to the premiere were also sent out one after another, and Lin Nan must be a part of it.
"Director Ning Hao seems to have started casting auditions." Yue Junti said.
"So fast?"
"Director Ning is obviously relaxed this time. Many agencies are filling in people."
"Speaking of this, I haven't finished reading the script yet. Let’s look back.”
Lin Nan said with a smile. He didn't know if there were any roles suitable for the company's artists.
Simply, Lin Nan took out the script of "The Flowers of the Heart" from the drawer and handed it to Yue Jun.
"Take a look and see if there is any role suitable for them and tell me later."
"You don't want to read it?"
"Yifei's place, there is another book .”
…………
The script of "Lin Hai Xue Yuan" is just in the next couple of days.
Filming this story was much more troublesome than previous ones.
Lin Nan is already ready to go to the film studio to find professional talents.
In the afternoon, as soon as he got home and his butt was still hot from sitting, he was put in a bad mood by a phone call.
It’s the same over in the Hong Kong circle, and it doesn’t stop at all.
"Suspected of the 'Zhao Zhen Controversy', Zhen Zidan offended Lin Nan Pictures and Yinghuang Pictures, and the protagonist of "Ip Man 3" was changed!"
"It makes no sense to change generals on the spot."
"Rumors say that Zhao Wenzhuo will replace Donnie Yen in the third part of the "Ip Man" series."
"Mainland capital, Suppress Hong Kong actor Donnie Yen..."
"The British and Huang side with Zhao Wenzhuo, Donnie Yen has been abandoned..."
...
The gossip is hotly discussed in the film and television circles and on the Internet.
"One Man's Martial Arts" is still being released, and Zhao Wenzhuo's performance is obvious to all.
If he plays "Ip Man 3", it seems that it is not impossible...
But what everyone is most concerned about is the statement: Did Donnie Yen really offend Lin? Nan Pictures and Yinghuang!
Lin Nan has received many calls from people asking about this matter.
The Hong Kong media was very noisy. They had already put Zhen Zidan in the position of the victim. It seemed that they were well prepared.
Yang Shoucheng personally called Lin Nan.
“Director Lin, we will handle this matter as soon as possible without delaying the normal casting and shooting of the movie.”
“Didn’t they just tell the gossip? No need to gossip. , just announce it, just replace him. Is he still a victim?"
Lin Nan said angrily.
Only an hour later, Yinghuang issued an announcement to the outside world that was not official.
“No more guessing about gossip, I can tell you now that the protagonist of "Ip Man 3" will be played by Zhao Wenzhuo. All other fixed supporting roles remain unchanged, and the new roles are being selected."
"As early as 3 years ago, the reason why the "Ip Man" series was suspended and shelved was because of someone who is now pretending to be innocent and vulnerable.
Today, the investment budget of "Ip Man 3" is 100 million, but as early as 3 years ago, he dared to forcefully ask for 30 million and threatened to go on strike..."
An informal announcement by Yinghuang instantly pushed public opinion to the top.
The circle was reminded again of Lin Nan and Ying Huang shelving the "Ip Man" movie series three years ago. At that time, many people didn't understand.
Now everyone understands Yinghuang’s statement.
No wonder a good money-making project is stopped as soon as it is said to be stopped. This is the reason for the relationship.
After a long quarrel, Lin Nan and Ying Huang were still soft-hearted and did not reveal Zhen Zidan's background!
What does it mean now? Why did the Hong Kong media suddenly report this? Casting Zhen Zidan as the weak side.
Everyone subconsciously thought of Donnie Yen whose role was changed!
