Chapter 651 Ning Hao's Winning Over
The film and television industry and the entertainment industry have strict classes and chains of contempt, and those at the top are always the great directors and producers in the film industry.
Beside them, there is never a shortage of beauties and irresistible temptations.
In the morning, when the news spread that Xu Laoguai and Shi Nansheng announced their divorce, the entire Chinese film and television industry and even the Southeast Asian film industry were in an uproar.
The 64-year-old Mr. Xu has an old heart after all, and he finally gave in after repeated attempts.
He chose a female assistant who was 30 years younger than him, and abandoned his miserable wife who had guided, supported and assisted him for nearly forty years.
Back then, a poor boy who was down and out met a talented and well-connected rich girl, but now he has reached this point, which makes many people sigh.
Lin Nan and Liu Yifei both had very good impressions of Shi Nansheng.
Lin Nan’s second Silver Bear Trophy for Best Director and the Cannes Film Festival Jury Prize were both presented by Shi Nansheng personally.
I remember that on the awards stage in Cannes, Shi Nansheng praised Liu Yifei’s beauty in person.
When introducing Lin Nan and Liu Yifei to all the guests and cameras at the scene, she specially added the last sentence:
"They are the director and producer of "The Star", as well as the male and female protagonists, and they are both the same." For lovers..."
Thinking about it now, Shi Nansheng is indeed a senior and strong woman in the industry who makes people feel like a spring breeze.
At this moment, a great director cannot resist the temptation, and he is too old to do such a thing.
Other well-known directors in the industry, especially those who have had gossip, immediately became the target of public criticism online.
Many people are complaining that the film and television entertainment industry is a place of moral decay. Among the great directors, there are no cats who don't cheat. Sooner or later, they will have to reach this point.
Weibo is even more chaotic. A large number of netizens are posting comments and messages one by one. Jiang Wen, Ning Hao, Xu Zheng...
Even Lin Nan, who has not yet been officially married, has been A large number of fans and moviegoers "warned": Know how to cherish and stick to your heart!
"This is simply an unreasonable disaster. I only like our Sissi wholeheartedly!"
Lin Nan smacked her lips and said speechlessly.
"It's okay for you. Look on the Internet. Didn't I just go to the bar with them and have a few drinks? How long has it been? I'm still looking through old news. Those girls are not named by me..."< br>
Looking at Ning Hao who was cursing, Lin Nan smiled jokingly: "Haha, who knows? Look at Xu Zheng, there is only a piece of cloth covering him, and you are together."
Speaking of this, Lin Nan suddenly paused, "I think I have to stay away from you in the future, so as not to affect my reputation!"
"Go away, uncle."
The two were chatting and laughing when Xing Aina came in with fruits and said in an indifferent tone: "It's good to stay away from him."
The office fell silent instantly, and Lin Nan didn't know how to respond to this sentence.
Ning Hao had a shy face and said with a playful smile: "What are you talking about? I'm not that ignorant. Family is the most important thing. Besides, it's impossible for me to look like a bandit..."
"Director Xu looks even more..."
"Shut up!" Ning Hao glared at Lin Nan and scolded in a low voice through gritted teeth.
"Lin Nan, eat quickly, the imported fruit you just bought."
"Thank you, sister."
Ignoring the bewildered Director Ning, Lin Nan held back her laughter and ate the cherry on her own.
"I'm going to start publicity here. Are you sure people from your company can't come back?"
Ning Hao was quite smart and changed the topic to business in a blink of an eye. Relieved the awkward atmosphere.
"The production of "A Thousand Bones of Flowers" will probably not be completed until the end of August or early September. She can follow the promotion in the last month."
Lin Nan's implication is that Zhao Liying cannot come back to participate in the promotional activities of "Heart Blossoms" in July and August for one and a half months.
"That's okay. I am an artist in your company. Other actors don't dare to say 'no'." Ning Hao said angrily.
"This is one of the reasons why everyone wants to sign up for my company, haha..." Lin Nan laughed and agreed.
The next second, he changed the subject again: "Tell me, what is the purpose of inviting me here today? It shouldn't just be about complaining and asking for people and eating fruit, right?"
After hearing Lin Nan's words, the smile on Xing Aina's face faded a little, and she looked at Ning Hao intentionally or unintentionally.
The latter chuckled and said, "It's nothing, just these three things. I just have nothing to do, so I came to have a chat with you."
"It's really nothing?" Lin Nan didn't believe it.
"No."
"If I had known, I would have called Sissi when I came out of the company. The cherry is quite sweet." Lin Nan joked.
"Haha, when you leave later, you can bring some for Yifei, there are still a lot of them."
As Xing Aina spoke, she got up and went out to prepare. Everyone is old friends, and Lin Nan is not polite.
More than half an hour later, Bad Monkey was downstairs, and Lin Nan held two small cardboard boxes and put them into the back seat.
"Let's go, see you another day."
Sitting in the driver's seat, Lin Nan waved to Ning Hao and the other two.
Looking at the car driving away, Xing Aina said: "Why don't you mention it? Invite Lin Nan over, isn't it just to talk about the company's affairs?"
Ning Hao frowned: "Xu Zheng and the others have a good idea. They organize some well-known directors to jointly invest in a new company or buy a small listed company as a backdoor, and everyone forms an alliance and becomes capital." At this point, Ning Hao paused. , "But we are still talking about the acquisition at this moment, and we are still talking about it. How can we convince Lin Nan?
And he is the capital! It depends on whether you like it or not. It’s hard to say whether we agree or not. Let’s wait until there is progress before talking to him, and it will be more realistic.”
There are already several partners in this matter, and Lin Nan is in the film and television industry. One of the best partners, so Ning Hao tried to win over him, but Ning Hao hesitated today.
"I feel that Lin Nan may not agree to it then..."
Xing Aina said abruptly. As a friend, she knew that Lin Nan was actually very conservative in character and conduct, and she cherished feathers.
Since you are already in a league of your own in the industry, why would you want to invest in another film and television capital company? Is it just for some shares and money? Lin Nan Pictures has no shortage of these.
“You think I don’t feel this way?”
Ning Hao said softly. The relationship between friends and partners sometimes really needs to be handled carefully, otherwise you may not be able to do either.

The auditions for "Mermaid" have officially begun, and auditions and casting are also in progress.
The audition site here in the capital was almost overcrowded. Female students from major colleges and universities, including Nortel, China Opera, and Beijing Dance Theatre, came.
Lin Nan heard from people at Xinghui that the total number of young girls participating in auditions across the country was as high as 120,000.
As expected, everyone has a dream of becoming a star and becoming famous instantly!
Chow Sing Chi’s current focus is on auditioning for other major roles.
When the audition progresses and there are only a few dozen people left, he will participate and select them personally.
At this point, Zhou Xingchi personally called and invited Lin Nan to watch the competition on site during the final stage of the audition.
China Film and Shanghai Film Group also received invitations, and none of them refused.
At noon, when Lin Nan was helping Liu Xiaoli prepare lunch, Liu Yifei came back from outside in her red Ferrari.
“Ah, where did the big cherry come from?”
Miss Liu started eating while holding the fruit plate, which Lin Nan had washed in advance.
"That sister gave it to me. By the way, how is Wu Gan doing there?"
"Although I have no aesthetic expertise in this type of movie, as far as editing is concerned, I think The editing effect of "Wolf Warrior" is still a bit rough."
Liu Yifei picked up a big cherry and handed it to Lin Nan's mouth and commented.
This morning, Wu Gan called and asked Liu Yifei, the producer and investor, to see the editing effect of the movie. It seemed that the result was not good.
"First of all, he is still a new director, and secondly, it is only the first cut, so it is understandable that he is a little bit close." Lin Nan consoled him.
"Well, that's what I said, too. At worst, I'll pay a little bit."
Liu Yifei is quite open-minded, but Wu Gan probably wouldn't dare to think that way.
The latter has taken a desperate stance. If he loses money again, the director's career will really be difficult to go on.
As if remembering something funny, Liu Yifei smiled and leaned into Lin Nan's ear: "Xie Nan's belly is round and it still moves when touched."
Lin Nan almost died laughing at this silly look, and complained in his heart: "Sooner or later you will be like that."
"Tsk, tsk, Wu Gan even joked that he is living like a cow now. The days of horses." Liu Yifei raised her eyebrows at Lin Nan.
"Being a bully and a horse? That's really miserable. We don't need to sympathize with him."
Lin Nan didn't accept the move, which made Liu Yifei roll her eyes.
"I have to go back in the next two days. If you two are hungry, you can find a way."
Liu Xiaoli said warmly with a smile on her face. Seeing that my daughter is about to get engaged, it seems that the burden on me is lighter.
"Don't worry, Mom, Lin Nan can cook, we can still go out to eat."
Lin Nan smiled and nodded, thinking that Miss Liu is really rude, but Lao Lintou This is indeed what he told his "daughter-in-law" back then.
"Well, that's good. I will notify all the relatives who should be invited this time."
Hearing Liu Xiaoli's words, Liu Yifei felt a little embarrassed and responded in a low voice. : "Oh..."
...
In the movie market, "Tiny Times 3" was officially released amidst the overwhelming cheers of fans who rushed to tell each other.
The gradually decreasing schedules of the three movies "Transformers 4", "Ip Man 3" and "The Breakup Master" were all given to it.
"Oldboy: The Dragon Crosses the River" was not assigned to the film schedule at all, but was even sucked by it.
In the top ten hot searches on Weibo, Guo Jingming, "Tiny Times 3" and the main creative members of the crew account for eight seats, which shows how crazy the fans are.
In the afternoon, news of a blockbuster project came from Hong Kong Island, and it quickly swept the mainland film industry, shocking everyone.
The first Chinese-language film to exceed 100 million U.S. dollars at the box office in the North American market was about to make a sequel, but the team was assembled without anyone noticing and was ready to start filming! ?
