Chapter 595 Completion of the bet, postponement, and review
Speaking of "Xiu Chun Knife" released more than three years ago, the film industry basically agrees that it is a rare high-quality martial arts movie in the mainland.
It takes a different approach, taking the situation of the last years of the dynasty and the collapse of the mansion as a blueprint, supplemented by the struggling of the little people in Jinyiwei.
It also combines court battles, power struggles, foreign invasions, shortcomings in the world, and the love between children to tell a story about a family, a country, and the world.
Compared with those traditional martial arts movies in Hong Kong, "Xiu Chun Knife" undoubtedly has a unique sense of national justice and historical significance, which is impressive.
It was with this film that Lu Yang was promoted to the director of the 100 million yuan club, and now he is the director of the 500 million club.
Now after 4 years, Lin Nan Pictures is going to make a second film?
Not to mention what the production industry thinks, the actors in the film and television industry alone are very excited.
Because there is no doubt that this is one of the top movie resources in the industry!
The crew of "Tiny Times 4".
Yang Mi looked at the so-called "gossip" about "Xiu Chun Knife" in the film and television information, and her emotions were complicated. She was a little concerned about gains and losses.
When "Xiu Chun Knife" was finalized, Lu Yang said in public to the crew that if the box office was okay, he would discuss the sequel plan with Lin Nan.
And the ending of "Xiu Chun Dao" is obviously unsatisfactory. It is open, with unfinished meaning, and there can be many stories behind it!
"This "Xiuchundao 2 Shura Battlefield" is not groundless..."
Although Yang Mi's voice was small, her tone was quite certain. It's just that her mood at the moment is a little unspeakably tangled.
On the one hand, she was still holding on to a sense of luck. After all, this was a series, and the original cast was of course the first choice.
But on the other hand, she has to face the reality that she is no longer an artist of Shanhai Media. Is it possible...
"Jiajia..."
Yang Mi called out to Zeng Jia.
After a moment, the latter quickly walked into the lounge dedicated to Yang Mi from outside.
"What's wrong?"
Actually, Zeng Jia had some suspicions in her mind. After all, the gossip about "Xiu Chun Knife 2" has spread throughout the industry.
When she was chatting outside, many artists, managers, and assistants were talking about this matter.
And these people, consciously or unconsciously, were asking her whether Yang Mi knew about Zhun Xiner.
Oh, how could you possibly know that!
"Jiajia, go and inquire for me and confirm."
Yang Mi raised her head and looked at Zeng Jia, and said firmly.
There are not many good resources in the industry, and even fewer top-level resources. Her best achievements are all related to Lin Nan Pictures, and she doesn’t want to give up...
“But, what can I confirm? What?”
Zeng Jia frowned, feeling that Yang Mi’s idea was a bit unrealistic.
"I think "Xiu Chun Knife 2" is the real thing, not groundless fake news. Please help me find out and confirm."
"Then what? So what if it's true, and what if it's fake? We've already come out. "Yes, is it still possible?"
Zeng Jia said "seriously".
Yang Mi did not waver, she looked at Zeng Jia: "At the end of this month or early next month, the "Tiny Times" series will be completely finished.
But you know, this series of movies In addition to the high salary and popularity, it also brought me a lot of notoriety and negative influence. I need some recognized good and high-quality movies, and "Xiu Chun Dao 2" is just that."
Listening to Yang Mi's serious words, Zeng Jia still felt a little bit regretful for a moment. "Tiny Times" really cost Yang Mi a lot in terms of reputation.
She nodded and agreed: "I will ask, but if it is true, what can you do? Mr. Yue... Yue Jun will most likely ignore me."
"If it is true. I will go by myself."
After a moment, Yang Mi said calmly, as if she had made some determination.
…………
Three days, four workshops, each lasting at least two and a half hours.
Lin Nan felt that he was going crazy because of the tossing, but fortunately no one paid attention to him while he was taking a nap.
As for the news posted on the Internet, neither he nor Liu Yifei bothered to pay attention to it. It will naturally be announced in the bureau in a few days.
At this moment, the eyes of the industry are all on the film market and new film and television information - Lin Nan has completed the box office bet.
""Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" has been in theaters for two weeks, with a total box office of 1.208 billion, making it the box office champion during the Spring Festival."
""Havoc in Heaven" ranked second with a box office of 670 million."
...
"It lasted 14 days and the box office exceeded 1.2 billion. According to the agreement between director Lin Nan and the theater, The total box office betting agreement:
The four producers and distributors, Lin Nan Pictures, China Film, Wanda, and Enlight, will share 46% of the divisible box office after the movie is released..."< br>
Most film companies and filmmakers in the industry have an idea:
"In less than half a month, the 1.2 billion box office bet was completed. Lin Nan shortened this time by nearly half. Thinking about it from another perspective, what will the final total box office be? Will it double?"
More and more people are beginning to predict the final box office results of "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom".
Although many people don't want to see certain things happen, they still can't help but think about the number "2 billion".
At five o'clock in the afternoon, Lin Nan came back from outside as if he was finally free.
“From today until the movie is released, there should be no ‘symposiums’.
I sit for hours and my back hurts for several days! I was just wondering, how did those people train? "
Lin Nan complained to Liu Yifei.
"How about I pinch you? "
Miss Liu flashed her watery eyes and said with a smile, looking forward to it.
Lin Nan hesitated for a moment and nodded, "Try? ”
"Come on, lie down on the sofa." Liu Yifei immediately jumped up and commanded.
“Why are you still lying down if you didn’t just squeeze it?”
Lin Nan was a little confused, but he still lay down honestly.
But the next moment, a cry like a killing pig came from Lin Nan's mouth: "Ah... kill... ah man..."
I saw Liu Yifei dragging She held one of Lin Nan's arms, pressed her knees against Lin Nan's back, and started to "squeeze" as she called it.
"When I was filming "The Condor" and "The King of Kung Fu", I had to train martial arts for several months or half a year. In addition to my daily practice, these simple body stretches are compulsory courses. Don't shout!"
"Is this easy? Are you trying to practice with me?"
After a long time, Lin Nan tried her best to look back at Liu Yifei, and she indeed had a joking expression.
“Hey, it’s your first time doing it on someone else, and you’ll gradually become more proficient in it from now on.”
‘You’re more proficient with me? ’ Lin Nan muttered without tears.
"Just tell me, are you feeling a little more relaxed?"
Liu Yifei sat down on Lin Nan, folded her arms and asked arrogantly.
Okay, Lin Nan didn't deny it. After the pain, he felt much better and felt relaxed all over.
“Well, Princess Sissi is amazing!”
“Huh, that’s right.”
Liu Yifei moved her butt proudly.
……
I couldn’t watch the awards ceremony at the Berlin International Film Festival. The time difference didn’t allow for it. I had to go there at two or three in the middle of the night.
But you can still watch Lin Nan and Liu Yifei during the first half of the red carpet at the closing ceremony.
Lou Ye was very bold. He actually found a real blind person to play "Massage" and also walked on the red carpet, which amazed the foreign media.
Huang Xuan was lucky enough to be put into Lou Ye's crew to play a supporting role. It seems that following Jiang Wenli, he has indeed joined the right company!
The one who stunned Lin Nan and Liu Yifei the most and made them unable to stop laughing was Ning Hao.
This guy led Xu Zheng, Huang Bo, and Yu Nan on the red carpet.
Obviously he is wearing a high-end casual suit, but when he wears it, he looks like a gangster.
Especially the big gold chain around my neck, which is so bright and eye-catching! It attracted the lens of many foreign media reporters.
After persisting until 11 o'clock, Lin Nan turned off the computer and just watched the news tomorrow morning.
……
The next morning, everyone was originally paying attention to yesterday’s awards news in Berlin, but the news from the film bureau in the media shocked the industry even more.
“Reprinted from the film bureau’s announcement document:
After multiple considerations and reviews, four producers, Lin Nan Pictures, China Film, Wanda, and Guangwang, were approved to jointly name the main theme commercial film "Outsmarting the Tigers" Extension key application submitted by "Mountain"
The new extension key will take effect on March 1st and will last for one month. The movie "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" will be postponed to March 31st. "
There is no production company in the industry that doesn't scold me. Is there really no way to survive?
"I'll go, it's really postponed! "
"The movie released in March was so miserable. After a month, I couldn't avoid Director Lin. "That's it, we are heading towards 2 billion steadily..."
……
Hua Yi.
Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei were immediately furious when they heard the news when they arrived at the company early in the morning.
In the chairman's office, Wang Zhonglei sneered and said:
"Haha, the application for the extension key of "Private Customization" was rejected because the conditions were not met.
I now know which one I am dissatisfied with. My feelings are that the name of "Private Customization" is wrong. It should be called "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom"! "
Wang Zhongjun browsed the official website of the Film Bureau: "China Film Co., Ltd. participated in the investment, starring Han Sanping, the main theme of the commercial film, broke 1 billion, and rushed to 2 billion.
Up and down, everyone has achieved political achievements. This is the green light from beginning to end, from top to bottom! ”
Although I know that the main theme film enjoys special treatment, it is understandable.
But because I want to reserve the extension key quota for "Taking Tiger Mountain", I declined the application for "Private Customization" The second king still felt aggrieved by his behavior.
But being aggrieved and angry is of no use. Apparently, even the film bureau is taking sides...
"The days are long, let's wait patiently. I still don't believe it, he won't have time to take a nap."
......
While eating breakfast, Lin Nan felt sorry for Ning Hao.
In movie news, the news that "Taking Tiger Mountain" has been postponed has been pushed out of the headlines.
Now it's all news from Berlin.
Lou Ye's "Massage" both won the Silver Bear Award for Outstanding Artistic Contribution, but "No Man's Land" received no results.
But the biggest winner this time is still the Chinese film.
"Fireworks in the Day" won the Golden Bear Award, and Liao Fan became the first domestic Berlin Best Actor and won the Silver Bear Award for Best Actor.
“Before I went to Berlin, I swore that the silver bear was not beautiful in color. When he brought the golden bear back, he would let me play with it for two days! Isn’t this a slap in the face?”
< br>
Lin Nan teased mercilessly.
"Haha, when they come back, you won't want to expose your scars in front of them, right?" Liu Yifei took a bite of the poached egg and couldn't help laughing.
“That’s impossible to say.”
In Lin Nan’s view, with the level of “No Man’s Land” and reaching the final judging stage of the Berlin Film Festival, will there be any awards? In fact, it was really just a thought. I can only say that it was a bit of bad luck.
After a quick breakfast, Lin Nan drove straight to the company. There was quite a lot of business to do.
Yue Jun arrived at the office immediately.
"After "Taking Tiger Mountain" exceeded 1.2 billion, the daily box office in the third week is still around 40 million..."
"What did you get?"
Lin Nan interrupted Yue Jun and looked at the thing in his hand.
Yue Jun placed the invitation on his desk, "Our movie is too eye-catching, Ali sent another invitation."
"What kind of event is this time?"
Although Lin Nan didn't want to deal with Ali because the latter was too pretentious, it didn't stop him from being curious.
“The Cultural China they acquired has been handed over and integrated, and is ready to be officially operated. For this purpose, many large companies in the industry have been invited.”
Hearing this, Lin Nan was in a daze for two seconds. Seconds, it’s finally time to enter!
"I heard that Zhao Yanzi is already a shareholder, and he is also the major shareholder." Yue Jun added.
Lin Nan shook his head, "It has nothing to do with us whether we are shareholders or not. I can't spare the time, so you can arrange for someone to go."
"Then, okay."
......< br>
On the other side, Zeng Jia tossed around for several times and finally got the inseparable news.
"It should be true. I heard from several employees who were familiar with each other before that director Lu Yang often returned to the company some time ago and met Zhang Yi and Lei Jiayin on the third floor.
I inquired about their schedules and found that they were both free in the first half of the year, and neither of them accepted any acting appointments. "
It's okay that Zeng Jia didn't say this. After she said this, not only Yang Mi's eyes lit up, but she also reacted.
The company can let Zhang Yi Isn’t a movie starring Lei Jiayin a high-quality resource?
Yang Mi had already taken out her mobile phone and looked through her address book, hesitating and struggling...
" Mimi, I'm going out first. "Zeng Jia can't stand it anymore.
"Well, you go and rest. I will take care of the rest."
"Don't take it too seriously."
"I know."
said After speaking, Yang Mi called Yue Jun.
…………
After Yue Jun and Lin Nan decided on a time to go to South Korea again, they left.
Before he could walk back to his office, the call came in.
Looking at the name on the caller ID, Yue Jun instantly realized what was going on.
He still has some feelings for artists who once led the way to sign in and then left after the appointment was completed.
He walked into the office in a few steps and answered the phone.
"Director Yue, I am Yang Mi..."
Before Yang Mi could continue to say hello, Yue Jun interrupted her.
"You should just talk about the matter directly. From what I know about you, I won't call you for nothing."
Yue Jun's words made Yang Mi freeze instantly. I can only swallow all the polite words.
“No matter what, I always want to thank Director Yue for taking care of me.”
"Hey, let's get down to business."
"Director Yue, I heard that there is a sequel to "Xiu Chun Knife", and I would like to ask..."
Yue Jun was not prepared to hide anything:
"We are starting a sequel, and the script is under review, but the director is solely responsible for this project. Because we are familiar with each other, I will give you a suggestion."
Hear Yang Mi was immediately surprised by these words, "Say, Director Yue."
Just listen to Yue Jun sigh:
“You are developing very well now, so don’t think too much about these things.
I have something on hand here, so I won’t talk to you more. "
In an instant, Yang Mi couldn't accept it. Her mind was buzzing and she stammered: "Well, Director Yue, you're busy, see you later."
"Yeah."
...
"Don't think too much, don't think too much..."
Muttering this sentence repeatedly, Yang Mi suddenly understood something;
" Don’t think too much? It means there is a heroine in the movie, so let me not think too much!”
Clenched her teeth, she summoned up her courage again, and dialed Lu Yang’s number.
Two minutes later, Yang Mi was in disbelief, as if she had experienced some serious blow.
Because she only got one sentence from Lu Yang: "There is already a candidate, more suitable than you!"
"More suitable than me?"
Yang Mi Ask yourself, I have acted in the first movie and I am a popular actress, who else is more suitable than me?
She was very sure that it was absolutely impossible for Liu Yifei to act in this movie!
"Zhao Liying? Reba? Or some big star?
Do you want to ask her..."
...
The review efficiency of movie scripts, Much higher than a TV drama script.
Only one day later, the news that the script of "Xiuchundao 2 Shura Battlefield" had been reviewed appeared on the official website of the Film Bureau, including some necessary introductions.
After the media report came out, actors in the entire film and television industry couldn't help but look over.
“The protagonist has not changed, but there are many main characters.”
“It is not a sequel to "Xiu Chun Dao", the timeline of this drama is before "Xiu Chun Dao"!"
"It is indeed a series. From the looks of it, I'm afraid there will be a third one."
"When will the auditions be held?"
