Chapter 560 Guaranteed issuance, 800 million?
Many people on the Internet are commenting that Yang Ying has made great progress in "The Dragon King of God".
But a few viewers knew that it was the result of almost exhausting Xu Kecai to death.
Basically all the shots in the former were only trained by the director after giving him countless instructions.
No, even Xu Ke himself was joking and mocking himself, saying that he was about to become Yang Ying's "exclusive personal trainer" in acting classes.
Lin Nan asked himself, if it were him, he would not be willing to suffer that "bitterness" and would directly replace the actors.
Back then, Jing Tian was much easier to train than Yang Ying.
"Time flies a bit fast, it's October 1st."
Lin Nan stayed in the office, filling in the script while thinking about the evening.
It has been spread among a small circle in the circle that Han Sanping’s retirement banquet will be tonight.
Those who receive invitations are all truly top figures in the film and television industry. There will be no ordinary stars. They must all be senior A-listers at least.
Lin Nan has a headache. I wonder if I should bring a gift?
Logically speaking, Han Sanping's status is not suitable for receiving gifts, but he has retired.
After struggling for a while, Lin Nan made up his mind. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, it would be better to bring nothing.
I believe there are many people in the circle who would agree with him.
"From now on, just take more care of classmate Xiao Han."
Thinking of Han Jia Nu, Lin Nan couldn't help but sigh, where is this Han Sanping's own retirement banquet and birthday banquet?
This is clearly done for Han Ga Nyeo. If not all of it is for Han Ga Nyeo, at least half of it.
Around noon, reports about "The Story of Ancient Swords" appeared in the media.
"The large-scale costume fairy tale "The Legend of Ancient Swords" starring Yang Mi, Li Yifeng, Zhong Xintong, Ma Tianyu, Qiao Zhenyu and others took three months of filming and was officially completed in Hengdian this morning."
"Huanrui said that the drama has signed an exclusive first-round broadcast agreement with Mango Channel..."
Not long after, Wang Changtian called:
"Deng Chao's drama "The Breakup Master" is ready to be filmed in the next two days. Come and show your face when the time comes."
"I know, just let me know when filming starts."
What do you say Lin. Nan himself also accounted for half of the investment, so of course he couldn't refuse this request to show up to support the show.
"Okay, let's see you in the evening."
"Well, see you in the evening."
Not long after hanging up the phone, Lin Nan thought of something.
"Businesses such as evening parties and variety shows seem to be businesses that started in the light industry and focused on the bottom of the box? The experience is absolutely rich!"
In the blink of an eye, Lin Nan had already thought about it in his mind With that in mind, I can definitely work with Guangguang on the mainland version of "Running Man".
A few days ago, the Golden Rooster had just ended with a controversial award result, and the public opinion has not dissipated yet.
Today, the National Day, the nomination list of the Golden Horse was also announced at 12 o'clock noon.
Announced together, there is also a complete list of the jury and awarding guests.
There are many films and actors from the Mainland shortlisted, but Li Bingbing and Lin Nan are the most conspicuous among the jury and award guests.
Because one can influence the final result, while the other is the biggest influencer among the award presenters and was also the best director last year.
In less than two hours, there was discussion on the Internet, speculating which important award Lin Nan would be awarded, or whether there would be more than one.
…………
In the afternoon, Lin Nan did not go to the company because Ning Hao flew back from the set.
"I really admire Yifei. She has raised so many cats and dogs, but your sister doesn't have such hobbies and leisure."
Looking at the little kittens playing on the lawn of the villa, Dog, Ning Hao said, shaking his head.
"So I have one more item in my usual work."
Lin Nan walked out of the villa carrying cat food and dog food and joked to himself.
A group of Paw Team and Meow Team immediately ran towards their "dining area" with all their conditioned reflexes.
After squatting down, they all wagged their tails or meowed at Lin Nan.
There are many fancy and beautiful "dinner plates" there, all carefully selected by Liu Yifei.
"Two days ago, the Television Association issued a proposal asking everyone to reduce their pay. Your company also produces TV series. Have you received it?"
"Yes, what's the use? There are more than just actors and stars in the industry. There are only about 80 responses for tens of thousands, which is no different from everyone’s resistance. How is it possible?”
Lin Nan was handing out cat food with a measuring cup in his hand. Shang said lightly.
"Yes, how many people are willing to take the initiative to lower their income?"
Ning Hao sat in the pavilion and glanced at Lin Nan, "Hurry up, let's go together in the evening Go over and I’ll go back to the set tomorrow.”
…………
Han Sanping’s banquet venue was chosen at a leisure mountain villa in the suburbs.
Since six o'clock in the evening, people from the circle have been arriving one after another.
Lin Nan and Ning Hao set off at five o'clock. They were stuck in traffic for more than an hour and didn't arrive until about half past seven.
“That’s Yu Pang...Yu Dong, right?”
As soon as I got off the bus, I saw a man and a woman not far ahead being led by a waiter and walking inside.
Ning Hao asked with some uncertainty.
"It's him." Lin Nan confirmed with better eyes.
"Okay, has this Peacock Princess succeeded in ascending to the throne?"
"Haha, it looks like she has ascended to the throne. Come on, let's go in too." Lin Nan took the lead and walked in front.
Although sometimes Han Ga Nyeo is very out of tune and often leaks.
But in this situation, he behaves like another person. There is no fault in his words and deeds. This is just a tutor.
"Junior sister Han, you are a good 'welcome'." Standing at the door of the banquet hall, which covers an area of more than 200 square meters, is Han Jianu. She can greet almost everyone who comes. Let’s chat for a few words.
“What’s the ‘welcome’? This is the host’s attitude towards entertaining guests.”
Han Jianu finally met Lin Nan who could joke, so she stopped talking politely.
"Senior Brother Lin and Senior Brother Ning, hurry in. My dad asked me to greet everyone here today. I can't leave."
"Okay, see you later."
The guests in Han Sanping today are all big names. The entrance of Lin Nan and Ning Hao did not cause much excitement.
"Yinghuang, Bona, Guangguang, Wanda, Xingmei, Huanrui, Chengtian, Xiaoma... almost all of them are here, even Wang Zhonglei is here?"
Lin Nan glanced over and saw Chen Kaige, Zhang Yimou, Feng Xiaogang, Gu Changwei, Jiang Wen, Tian Zhuangzhuang, Chen Kexin, Wu Yusen, Xu Ke...
There were basically no directors who were named absent. , many of them, like Ning Hao, came from the film crew.
Han Sanping was joking with Ren Zhonglun, the bosses of several state-owned enterprises, and there was no trace of them being rivals.
Everyone knows that on this occasion tonight, all the top people in the industry will come, which also means connections and resources.
So several big names even brought their younger generations with them, such as Jackie Chan, Leslie Cheung, Gu Changwei, Wang Jinghua and others.
"Let's go, find a place to sit down?" Ning Hao suggested.
Lin Nan could tell that Ning Hao was not interested in today's entertainment, so he nodded immediately.
“Over there.”
Sometimes, social entertainment is something that cannot be avoided.
Even though a few people such as Lin Nan and Director Ning were sitting there, trying to hide and relax, people kept coming to greet them.
It wasn't until almost 8:30 pm that the banquet officially started.
"Thank you all for coming to my retirement banquet today. We used to have more contact with each other at work, but in the future we can just become friends..."
Han Sanping was talking above, watching. Get up full of energy.
"Director Han's words sounded quite sad to me." Ning Hao muttered in a low voice.
"It's quite sour. When have you ever heard him say soft words?!" Lin Nan clapped along with everyone.
The banquet officially begins.
At the same table as Lin Nan and Ning Hao were Yu Dong, Wang Zhonglei, Yang Shoucheng and a few others.
Han Sanping was afraid that he would not be able to sit down tonight, so he took Han Jianu from table to table with a smile on his face.
In Lin Nan's opinion, this is an old father using his retirement banquet to pave the way for his daughter.
"Director Lin, your film "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" should be ready soon, right?"
Wang Zhonglei suddenly asked Lin Nan, which made many people present prick up their ears.
Discussing business at the dinner table is an old tradition of the Chinese people.
But I’m afraid it’s inappropriate for today’s occasion, right? After all, there are so many companies here!
“Don’t even think about the distribution matter, Director Wang. We have already made an agreement with Director La before. Furthermore, the distribution of our company’s films has always been handled by China Film and Television.” Lin Nan pointed out So far, I smiled.
“Director Lin, are you interested in trying the guaranteed distribution model?”
Wang Zhonglei was like a fox, throwing out another bait.
"Guaranteed release?"
This word made several people at this table stunned for a moment, and even Qin Hong and Wang Changtian at the next table turned their heads.
“Yes, a guaranteed bet. Before the movie is released, a box office limit is drawn, and the distributor pays all the shares of this box office to the producer in one go.
If the box office does not reach that point If the box office exceeds the number, the loss will be borne by the distributor, and the excess profit will have nothing to do with the producer.”
"If that's the case, Bona is also very interested."
Yu Dong put down the chopsticks in his hand and interrupted unexpectedly.
The way he smiled was not as "honest" as other fat men, but rather cunning.
Ning Hao touched Lin Nan's elbow and winked.
“Haha, what kind of guarantee is there? How much is the guarantee? I’ll listen to Director Wang’s quotation for me.”
Lin Nan asked with interest.
Sure enough, Wang Zhonglei’s Yue Buqun-like smile became even brighter:
“Director Lin’s box office appeal has always been very strong. But you also know, looking at the box office of film history over the years , the results of the main theme movies are not very good."
"What is Huayi's offer?"
"How about 800 million guaranteed?"
Wang Zhonglei's words made everyone around him take a breath.
If Lin Nan agrees, he can get more than 300 million back in an instant, and his profit will be more than doubled.
Yu Dong opened his mouth and closed it again.
Although Bona is a listed company, it is the poorest listed company in the industry and cannot compare with Huayi.
“Didn’t Mr. Wang slap me in the face?”
"How do you say this?"
"When I came back from filming, I swore in front of the media that I would first set a box office target of 1 billion. Your 800 million is not a slap in my face, what is it? ?”
“But this is a theme theme and cannot be compared with Director Lin’s previous commercial films.”
“If Huayi can release it with a guaranteed box office of 1.2 billion, I can do it. Consider signing a bet. How about it, Mr. Wang?"
At this moment, Wang Zhonglei's expression stiffened as if he had eaten a fly.
