Chapter 578: Lunar New Year chores, head-on conflict
"In the morning, Director Lin Nan represented China Film, Wanda, Enlight and other film producers of "Taking Tiger Mountain" to sign total box office contracts with theater companies across the country. Betting Sharing Agreement. "
"This agreement continues the betting sharing ratio of the total box office of "The Gunslinger" and "Pacific Rim". When the total box office is fixed in three different ranges: less than 800 million, 800 million to 1.2 billion, and more than 1.2 billion, the producer will get 43%, 44.5%, and 46% of the shareable box office according to the account sharing agreement.
Another piece of dazzling news!
Everyone in the production industry lamented that only Lin Nan could take advantage of these theaters.
Other film companies, including the two industry leaders Star America and Huayi, have all tried to reduce the share of revenue by selling well in exchange for theaters increasing their film schedules.
Compared with Lin Nan's behavior, these two families are undoubtedly inferior.
Think about it, Lin Nan is many times more powerful than Zhang Weiping who used Zhang Yimou to intimidate theaters two years ago.
Otherwise, he would not have been able to get theaters to willingly sign box office betting and splitting agreements one after another.
On the other hand, Zhang Weiping was kicked out of the game after a complete defeat.
The reason is that it still depends on the box office, and at this point, Lin Nan is much better than Zhang Yimou.
……
The Lunar New Year festival is like a large battlefield, with several movies released every day to participate in the war.
But most films will inevitably become cannon fodder and become foils and backgrounds for a few films.
And these few movies are almost all made by big directors or big productions.
They have their own topics and traffic, a certain audience base and stronger box office appeal. This is an advantage that other movies can hardly surpass!
As the main theme commercial blockbuster directed by Lin Nan and released during the Spring Festival, "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" will only be better than it!
But even so, Lin Nan also hopes to promote the movie as much as possible.
""The Storm", "Private Order"...don't ask me about these movies. The most I can spare is to go to the premiere of "New Police Story 2013"."
Looking at the pile of invitations in Yue Jun's hand, Lin Nan said speechlessly.
The invitations sent by these people all invited him by name, but where did he get so much time and energy? Not that interested either.
"After all, Director Lin, you have had too much news recently, and they are all shocking news, so everyone is staring at you. Haha..."
Yue Jun said with a smile, looking proud.
Lin Nan was noncommittal. Isn’t that what these people have in mind?
He has been back for two days, and there are still many media who want to make appointments for interviews. There are people squatting downstairs in the company right now.
"You can figure it out. I'll go back first. I have to go out with Guo Fan and the others tomorrow to promote it."
As he spoke, Lin Nan got up and walked out. Jun also followed out of the office.
…………
At noon, Li Bingbing posted a photo with Deng Wendi.
In this way, after half a year, the attention of the mainland entertainment industry was once again attracted to Ms. Deng.
From being "divorced" in the middle of the year to completing the procedures in these two days, Deng Wendi did not make a fuss or make a fuss, and behaved extremely calmly and cooperatively.
This respectful and submissive attitude also allowed her to receive "a drop in the bucket" compensation from the media tycoon even though she had a prenuptial property agreement.
In other words, Deng Wendi obtained properties worth hundreds of millions of dollars, including courtyard houses in the capital, and hundreds of millions of dollars in breakup fees.
These are actually secondary. What concerns the entertainment industry the most is that Deng Wendi also posted on Weibo:
She said she would invest in the Li Bingbing sisters' film and television media company to provide help and bridges for domestic films and actors to go overseas.
I have to say that this is an accurate grasp of the domestic film and television entertainment industry.
Even though she is divorced from the media tycoon, she is still a big shot in the industry with her many years of connections and wealth! It can make countless actors and actresses flatter and flatter you.
At around eight o'clock the next morning, Lin Nan met several long-lost crew members.
Han Sanping, Zhang Hanyu, Fan Bingbing, Luo Jin, Guo Fan, Han Jianu.
"Huh? Where is Leader Huang?" Lin Nan asked.
"Director Lin, you forgot so quickly?
He is very busy, "Coquettish Women Have the Best Life", "Splendid Adventures of Jinxiuyuan", and I heard that "Taiping Wheel" There are still some scenes that have not been completed yet."
Fan Bingbing reminded with a smile, not forgetting to tease Huang Xiaoming.
“Fortunately, he comes back every three or four days to cooperate with the promotion, and there has been no mistakes so far.” Guo Fan explained.
Lin Nan patted his forehead, forgetting this.
“He is really busy with this drama.”
That is to say, Huang Xiaoming is very popular, he is also a top first-line actor and the Golden Rooster Best Actor. If it were anyone else, he would not be able to beat Wu Yu. Sen's play.
Thinking of this, the shadow of Yang Mi appeared subconsciously in Lin Nan's mind. She was also confused at the beginning, but she hit Chen Kaige's gun!
"Where is Yifei? Didn't she come today too?" Han Jianu looked around and asked Lin Nan.
During the promotion a few days ago, she and Liu Yifei were the only two girls of about the same age on the set who could chat. I didn't see anyone today, and I was still a little unaccustomed to it.
Lin Nan couldn't help but smile. Miss Liu was still sleeping at home at the moment, and the reason was very valid:
"She said that since I'm back, she would let me come, She gave herself a few days off to have a good rest."
"Hey, laziness is just laziness, there are many excuses..."
"Let's go, hurry up and talk to Zhongxi. We have made an appointment to hold a movie presentation in the morning," Han Sanping urged.
...
On the seventh day of its release, "No Man's Land" only dropped 20 million at the daily box office, with a revenue of 17.2 million.
A large number of positive reviews online have shown this road crime film to have great box office potential and vitality.
On the other hand, "Four Famous Catchers 2" is different.
After three days of burning fire, it got a box office of 89.34 million.
But the daily box office on the fourth day was cut in half from 26.4 million the previous day to 12.2 million.
This day’s box office decrease has made the film industry feel a little bit pained. This is no longer a normal decrease, but an avalanche!
The situation of "The Big Four 2" has also caused the production industry to once again have some resistance to traditional martial arts films.
It may really be hopeless.
Lu Yang is still perfecting "Xiu Chun Dao 2", and he also read this information.
However, in his eyes, the "Xiuchundao 2" he has on hand is different from "Four Famous Catchers 2", and he is also different from Chen Jiashang.
"Even Xu Ke has a new style. In contrast, Director Chen Jiashang still hasn't made a breakthrough and is falling behind..."
After muttering something, Lu Yang once again immersed himself in "Embroidery" The script of "Spring Knife 2".
He is confident that he can definitely finish the final draft of the script within half a month, and then start the project!
……
During this period, if you want to ask which actor in the industry has been the most aggrieved or made fun of the most.
Thinking about it, it should be Yang Mi.
Ever since she left Shanhai Media at the beginning of the year, she has been the subject of discussion in the industry.
Most of the fans support her to start her own business, while the other part feels that she should not leave the big tree of Lin Nan Pictures.
Many competitors and companies should be waiting to see her jokes.
Fortunately, in the past year, the performance of many movies and TV series has caused her fans to skyrocket, and her salary and net worth have also soared. She is firmly at the forefront of A-list actresses,
But during this period, The news really made her the object of ridicule in the industry, the kind that can't be refuted!
Even the members of the "Tiny Times 3" crew looked at her with a hint of complexity in their eyes. Was that regret? pity? Or gloating?
"Who would have thought that Director Lin hid so much. He is not a minority shareholder of Crystal Pictures, but a big boss with more than half of the shares...
He owns a well-known Hollywood film company Company! The box office of "The Invisible Guest" has exceeded 100 million US dollars..."
Yang Mi murmured in a low voice, her face extremely gloomy, and her heart was bleeding uncomfortably. She knew what she had lost. Invisibly, she lost opportunities in Hollywood.
"Zhang Yi has joined the cast of "Pacific Rim"...it means that we all have a chance. Why didn't I wait a little longer?"
< br>"Mimi, are you thinking about those things that you have and don't have again?"
Zeng Jia came over at the right time. How can there be any regret in the world about taking medicine? Even if there is, you can’t eat it...
"Jia Jia?"
"Think about it, looking at the mainland entertainment industry, apart from those big stars who have won awards and acted in foreign language films, who among the young actresses can compare with you?"< br>
Seeing that Yang Mi still had a resentful and entangled face, Zeng Jia continued: "Don't think so much, you are already the best little actress.
Those big flowers, even It’s Liu Yifei, who is not backed by a big director or a giant company. From this point of view, you have worked hard to reach this point without their background. It is really an inspirational model!”
Yang Mi forced a smile. , Zeng Jia’s words were right, but she still wasn’t willing to give in.
"One more thing. According to the plan, our studio will be upgraded to a company after the year. As for the name, I plan to use 'Jiaxing' and call it 'Jiaxing Media'. What do you think?"
< br>"Well, it's up to you, it's all the same..."
Yang Mi nodded and said casually, she didn't care about this,
…………
Chinese drama. Drama auditorium.
Han Sanping took the microphone and talked about the educational significance of the play "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" on the stage.
Actually, there is no need to go into detail, because one of the plays that China National Theater usually rehearses is "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom".
However, the nearly two hundred students, teachers and department leaders below still listened very carefully.
After all, the person standing on the stage is Han Sanping!
“Brother Lin, my dad is obviously playing a villain, but his current posture looks like Yang Zirong?!”
Han Jia'v was the assistant director, so she sat next to Lin Nan. She turned slightly sideways and could whisper.
Lin Nan glanced at Han Sanping again.
Well, isn’t it?
The way Han Sanping pointed out the situation and talked eloquently, he looked like a heroic figure.
This is exactly the way he spoke in public when he was the chairman!
In less than five minutes, Han Sanping finished his speech, and warm applause immediately came from below, no less than the applause Lin Nan had just received.
“Why do I feel like I feel like returning to Nortel this time when I come to China Theater? It’s so popular!” Guo Fan also whispered.
"Huh? It should be because of Director Lin..." Fan Bingbing added with a smile.
Lin Nan took the microphone again. As usual, he, the director, had to answer some questions about the movie.
Originally, he thought that Chinese opera students would ask more professional questions, but that was not the case.
"Director Lin, "The Invisible Guest" has been in theaters for 11 days and has received 140 million US dollars. How much can you get?"
This tacky question suddenly made the atmosphere lively. Even Han Sanping Everyone was amused.
"Haha, I can only say that Crystal Pictures can get half of the divisible box office." Lin Nan gave half the answer.
"Director Lin, before the school invited you to teach at China National Opera, why didn't you agree?"
Good guy, when this question was asked, all the Chinese Opera students seemed to prick up their ears. , only the teachers and department leaders in front smiled helplessly.
"There are countless outstanding teachers in China Opera, and I am an inexperienced novice, don't you think?"
Lin Nan still has not publicly said that he will teach at Nortel.
He has been in enough news recently. He should leave some space for others in the headlines.
“The art exam is about to begin. Can Director Lin come to China National Theater to be an examiner?”
I don’t know which student asked this question. Even the department leaders in the front row asked His eyes widened and he was obviously moved.
"So it's not fate. During that time, in addition to Oscar PR, I also had movie plans to do..."
"Movie plans?"
...
This group of people really caught Lin Nan and kept asking him questions for nearly an hour.
Fortunately, the filming trip for "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" has come to a successful end.
After the crew members had a "reception banquet" at the Central Theater, it didn't take long for them to go back to their homes.
However, news from the media spreads quickly, and what Lin Nan said in the drama has already been reported.
“Director Lin Nan is suspected to be planning a new movie early next year. The specific situation needs to be further understood...”
…………
“Haha, learn more ? It sounds like a blind date!”
Liu Yifei held Lin Nan's arm and rested her head on his shoulder, unable to stop laughing.
"Okay, what's so funny. At that time, we should consider filming "Manchester by the Sea"."
Lin Nan held Liu Yifei's waist and chuckled. said.
“I just think the media is so interesting. You only said the words ‘movie project’ and they made headlines for you, and it looked decent.”
“They don’t Just eat this bowl of rice, haha..."
Before Lin Nan finished speaking, the phone on the table vibrated.
"La Dong?"
Liu Yifei instantly let go of Lin Nan and asked him to answer the phone, while she smiled beside her and did not disturb him.
"Hello, La Dong?"
"Let me tell you, you two are going to become competitors this time..."
Five minutes later, Lin Nan said goodbye to La Peikang and hung up the phone.
“What’s going on?”
Liu Yifei came up and asked curiously.
"Well, Sissi, we might have to have a fight."
"Huh? Why?"
Seeing Lin Nan's serious look, Liu Yifei frowned and asked.
"Look at your silly look, it's a movie. China Film and Disney have already agreed on a specific schedule for "Frozen," in which you are dubbing and starring."
"When?"
Hearing this, Liu Yifei's eyes widened instantly and she was a little excited.
This is her first time dubbing a major animated film, and it is bilingual in Chinese and English!
"On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, there is only 5 days between "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom". Although they are not on the same track, they are still competitors! Because you will be used for publicity!"
Lin Nan He smiled and pinched Liu Yifei's cheek, it was so smooth and tender.
This publicity is not a bad thing. To a certain extent, it is also promoting Liu Yifei.
The media who want to come to the mainland will definitely be more excited.
Because "Liu Yifei's "Frozen" and Lin Nan's "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" are going to conflict head-on in the same schedule. Isn't this news very interesting?
