Chapter 605 The Two Billion Era
“According to the content of Weibo’s “Prospectus for IPO”:
Director Lin Nan has been a shareholder of Weibo since its founding, and after multiple rounds of additional financing, Until now, he still owns 12% of the original shares of Weibo..."
"Once officially listed on Nasdaq, Director Lin Nan will become its largest individual shareholder, that is, one of the major shareholders."< br>
“According to Weibo’s response, Director Lin Nan does not participate in the company’s operations and does not join the board of directors. All voting rights have been entrusted to Chairman Cao Guowei to hold on his behalf.”
...
The series of news has dazzled countless companies, actors, stars, employees, and even paparazzi throughout the film and television industry.
Because of Weibo's special status and market use in the film and television media industry, the film and television circles, entertainment circles and even the literary and art circles pay no less attention to it than the Internet industry.
Lin Nan owns 12% of the shares. This incident has undoubtedly shaken the film and television industry like a major earthquake.
What does it mean to have so many original shares? The entire film and television industry knows it.
Especially those companies that have always used trolls and used them proficiently, they really know it!
This means that Lin Nan is inherently invincible when it comes to the right to speak in the media, and so are the people around him.
Even those press releases on Weibo that are slandering each other, which company, which artist studio, or which actor or star are they from?
In Lin Nan's eyes, there will be no secrets in any of this.
Huayi.
Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei felt very tired.
They have been in the film and television industry for so many years, relying on their position in the industry and controlling public opinion, they have suppressed countless disobedient and uncooperative artists.
Had Lin Nan not taken action, what Liu Yifei would have faced would have been Huayi's "shameless and despicable" suppression and exclusion.
Nowadays, the film and television entertainment industry is completely inseparable from the Internet, but Lin Nan occupies Weibo, the largest media platform.
"Stay away from him in the future. All conflicts will be resolved openly and honestly, and don't even think about using extraneous means, including the people around him..."
Wang Zhongjun said in a low tone that he was thinking about finding trouble in the future because of Lin Nan's selling of stocks, but he didn't want to do that anymore.
“Now it’s not that we can’t do something dirty, we have to guard against him.”
Wang Zhonglei opened his mouth, and what he said was a little too ambitious, but this was fact.
“You can rest assured about this.
After so many years, you still can’t figure out who he is? As long as you don’t provoke him, especially don’t provoke Liu Yifei, he won’t talk to you. .”
Wang Zhonglei remained silent. He remembered that Lin Nan called from Hollywood and told him and Liu Xiaoli that this was the end of the matter.
At that time, he was still laughing at Lin Nan in his heart.
There are so many good-looking women in the entertainment industry, but he doesn’t believe that Lin Nan can withstand the temptation, so he just sticks to the movies of a little girl!
Now it seems that he lost and Lin Nan won.
Wang Zhonglei nodded: "Well, I understand."
...
On the Tang Dynasty side, Cai Yinong looked at the headlines in the circle and could not speak for a long time.
She seemed to have wandered in front of the gate of hell countless times, and how many times she was just a little bit away, really just a little bit away - gone.
Think about those press releases bought by Tangren, such as Hei Yangmi’s a few days ago. If the latter is still in Shanhai Media...
Thinking of this, Cai Yinong breathed a sigh of relief. If Yang Mi is still in Shanhai Media, and it is impossible for her to slander her.
At this time, Jiaxing was also "shocked".
"I originally thought that Director Lin would only have one or two points at most. Who knew it would be 12%? No wonder the company never talked about setting up a public relations team."
Yang Mi said self-deprecatingly, and Zeng Jia and Zeng Jia looked at each other.
"We have to spend money on public relations, publicity, headlines and hot searches. Director Lin? He can directly ask people to change the code..."
Zeng Jia made a rare joke, his tone It has a strong sour taste.
...
Liu Yifei led Shu Chang into the office and sat down in Lin Nan's seat.
“Tsk, tsk, tsk, you are worthy of being producer Liu. Walking around in Lin Nan Pictures is just like at home, and you can even order your assistant at will.
Oh, by the way, it’s not just me. Home, boss lady?"
Shu Chang joked in a weird way, playing with green plants on the side.
"I'll meet Director Jiang later and help Jiang Xin determine the role, and then we'll leave."
Liu Yifei leaned on the huge boss chair and couldn't help but stretch.
Under the high-waisted jeans, the graceful waist and hip lines were instantly exposed, making Shu Chang roll his eyes.
After waiting for half an hour, the assistant came over and told Liu Yifei that there was an intermission for the audition on the third floor.
“Let’s go to the third floor.”
Originally, Miss Liu was planning to call Jiang Yuerou, but there were auditions all the time and the phone was turned off.
Send a text message, and it seems too casual, so she will have no choice but to come over in person.
Who made her brag about Haikou yesterday and promise Jiang Xin that she would get the role today?
She won’t admit it. It’s the reason why Jiang Xin speaks so well. Well, she won’t admit it.
On the third floor, many actors and agents saw Liu Yifei and Shu Chang, but they did not dare to go up to say hello. Their status was too different.
When Jiang Yanrou heard Liu Yifei's intention, she nodded without saying anything. Everything was so understated.
"So many actors have been appointed?"
"Yes, regarding the male lead, there are several A-list actors competing for it, like Huo Jianhua..."
Speaking of this, Jiang Yanrou paused for a moment:
“But we still have to wait for Director Lin to come back to make the final decision, fix the angle or adjust it. The start-up time will also be later, even to the end of April or May. "Liu Yifei nodded, she didn't care about this, "Then I'll leave the matter to Director Jiang."
“Okay, I’ll have someone notify her agent soon.”
……
Lin Nan really didn’t expect that she would be able to receive requests from Hollywood Han Ga Nyeo’s phone number.
"Senior Brother Lin, you should be able to make it in time, right? Don't forget my important event!"
When Han Jianu asked this question, Lin Nan couldn't help but slap her forehead, and she really forgot about her graduation defense.
As the producer of the graduation drama, I was called upon by the school to be present.
"No problem, my movie "Manchester by the Sea" is about to be finished, and I can definitely go back in April."
"That's okay, I'm afraid of your absence.
Teacher Jiang said, if you come, I will have an outstanding graduate! If you don’t come, it will be hard to say.”
Hearing this, Lin Nan was immediately stunned. Good guy, are you so direct now? Doing this openly?
"Well, I'll congratulate you in advance, see you then."
"Okay, then I wish Brother Lin a successful completion of the movie and a skyrocketing net worth! Haha..."
Looking at the hung up phone in his hand, Lin Nan smiled and shook his head.
Many friends in the industry have sent him messages and called him recently. Those who congratulated and ridiculed him were all caused by Weibo's listing.
At the end of the third week of March, the mainland film industry ushered in a new era because of "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom."
"Directed by Director Lin Nan, produced by Liu Yifei, starring Han Sanping, Zhang Hanyu, Huang Xiaoming, Fan Bingbing, Luo Jin and others.
The main theme commercial movie "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" will be released for 50 days , with a total box office of 2.003 billion!"
"The Chinese film market has officially entered the era of 2 billion yuan box office..."
"Director Lin Nan broke the box office record of domestic movies and became the first 2 billion yuan box office era. Director of Yuan Box Office Club. Liu Yifei is the first 2 billion box office film producer..."
...
There is a feeling of "changing the world" in the film industry.
This is really too fast, it is unbelievable. Is this the era of two billion box office?
China Film Group issued three announcements in one day.
Highly praise the group's fruitful achievements in "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" and the great contributions made by two-time China Film Chairman La Peikang and Han Sanping.
Even the film bureau issued a rare congratulatory letter to celebrate the entry of domestic films into a new era.
The most important thing is that "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" is a main theme movie.
For China Film and the Film Bureau, this is the greatest political achievement! The kind that can be written in a report for two consecutive years!
However, the film industry does not care about political achievements or not. Everyone only cares about and envy the division of accounts between Lin Nan Pictures, China Film, Wanda, and Guangwang.
According to the previous gambling agreement between Lin Nan and the theater chain, the producer and distributor can get 46% of the divisible box office.
Calculated based on 2 billion, excluding the special film fund and special business tax, the four companies can get 844 million from the box office alone!
In addition, such high-grossing movies also enjoy rewards and subsidies from this year's "Special Film Fund", which is distributed proportionally, which is another large amount of money.
Coupled with the 92.8 million from pre-roll advertisements and 10 days of release, the daily box office is still 5 to 6 million...
Counting all the revenue and excluding the 150 million After the investment, people in the industry came to a conclusion:
The net profit from "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" can definitely exceed 800 million, or even reach around 900 million.
Hiss... Countless companies in the production industry are getting more and more annoyed the more they think about it. This is worth the combined efforts of several listed companies in one or two years!
......
The filming of "Manchester by the Sea" is getting faster and faster. The leading actors are completely in the state, and the number of times they pass is increasing.
Leonardo even felt like a demon. Even when he was eating and resting, he had the temperament of the leading actor in the movie.
Lin Nan flipped through his phone. In addition to news about Wang Changtian, Han Sanping, La Peikang, and Ye Ning, there were also news about Ren Zhonglun and Yang Shoucheng...
He couldn't help but smile:
"Congratulatory messages, goodwill messages, wooing... the celebration banquet has to wait for me to go back? Is it a bit too showy? That's okay, haha..."
More than ten minutes later, with Lin Nan’s “action”, the movie started shooting again.
In the monitor, the male protagonist played by Leonardo met his ex-wife after ten years of absence, and things changed.
Jessica’s crying scene was pretty good. The more she talked about it, the more excited she became. She regretted that she shouldn’t have insulted the male protagonist so much, but in the eyes of the male protagonist, that was what she should be doing.
One has faced and accepted the reality, but the other still cannot open his heart.
......
"Lin, why does the male protagonist in your script have to leave Manchester at the end? He can never be redeemed and lives so depressed, like a creature that has been drowning in water. Dead people..."
After the show, Jessica Chastain, wiping away tears, asked this question.
“In life, there are often more tragedies than comedies. And the same is true in drama. Tragedy is always profound.”
Lin Nan would not say that because it was a tragedy, the probability of winning the prize was increased by three points.
But it is undeniable that the depth of tragedy often makes people more sympathetic, which of course includes the judges of the film festival.
"Take a break and let's continue working. I have planned to return to China in early April."
"No problem, Lin."
"Lin , don’t worry, it’s okay!”
