Chapter 838 Ban? Male Lead 2
The finalized movie information of "Lu Yao Knows Ma Li" is like a drop of water dripping into the sea without causing a single ripple.
Because the focus of public opinion on the Internet is still yesterday afternoon's "Monster Hunt - Charity Movie Screening Announcement" released by Anle Pictures.
In just five days, this is the third announcement from Anle Pictures.
A series of combination cards were played, which not only successfully reversed the disadvantageous situation of 70% to 80%;
It also allowed the industry to see what it means to have an almost perfect response and public relations after someone has stolen something!
This is also a classic lesson for the film industry.
Although the teaching is from the perspective of "despicable people", there are definitely more people in the industry who have learned and benefited from it.
At around nine o'clock in the morning, Lin Nan left Wen Xiang Ruyu and rushed to the company in a hurry.
On the car radio, Huayi's "Destined" starring Liao Fan and Tang Wei seems to be released today.
Most likely to help promote the movie, director Feng Da's cannon fired again after a long time.
Not only did he revisit the "Lust, Caution" incident, support Tang Wei, and bluntly said that some departments bully the weak and fear the strong;
He also publicly supported Chen Kaige again, mocking the Taoist Association for being purely glassy. , it’s all online in one day.
Tang Wei, who was once bitten by a snake, seemed extremely low-key and sensible. He just replied from a distance, "The hardships in life are over, don't blame anyone," and then fell silent.
Since it is rare for "Little Steel Cannon" to be active, many media directly targeted him online and asked what he thought about the head-on conflict between Lin Nan Pictures and Anle Pictures.
However, the media's expectations were not responded to, because Feng Xiaogang directly avoided the topic and even scolded him in reply: "You are crazy when you step on a horse!" Looking for trouble, right?
......
“Even Director Feng’s big mouth can’t avoid this matter. It seems that everyone in the circle knows that we are really angry.”
Yue Jun sat opposite Lin Nan and said with a teasing smile.
Jiang Yuerou held a page of A4 paper and couldn't help but nod in agreement while browsing.
"The Return of the Great Sage will issue a new secret key at the beginning of next month, and you can also add it."
"Yes, of course."
Lin Nan pinched his eyebrows and responded softly. sentence.
"Director Lin, although this is our private matter, will the General Administration interfere?"
As the company's chief steward, Yue Jun will deal with all possible consequences afterwards. Considered it.
Lin Nan couldn't help but frowned when he heard this.
Jiang Yuerou also looked away from the announcement content and started to think about it: "We can't rule out the possibility. After all, this kind of thing has never happened in the industry."
"No. Has it happened? Then let’s be the first to give the film industry a head start. How can we let them get away with it easily?”
Lin Nan looked directly at Yue Jun, again. Feng Qingyun calmly ordered: "Let's take the afternoon time. The sun is high, suitable for judging Xiaoxiao."
"Okay, I will prepare later."
"Director Jiang, inform Zhang Yi and the others to come to the company on the 30th of this month."
After talking about the announcement, Lin Nan thought of another serious matter and immediately warned.
"Yes, I will notify you."
Did not stay at the company for long, and Lin Nan drove away at early ten o'clock.
Because Zhu Yawen’s daughter’s full moon wine is the day after tomorrow, and he and Liu Yifei haven’t had time to prepare gifts yet, so they happened to go out for a stroll this morning.
...
The two films "The Other Side" and "The Lady of the Dynasty: Yang Guifei" both held their last media conferences before their release this morning.
For these two movies released on the same day, it is obvious that the outside world is more looking forward to the latter.
After all, this is a film directed by two great directors, Zhang Yimou and Tian Zhuangzhuang; and although the former has not yet been released, its reputation has been ruined by "The Taiping Wheel (Part 1)".
When Lin Nan arrived at the place, Liu Yifei and Shu Chang were picking things up wearing masks.
To be honest, Lin Nan and the three of them were confused about what gifts to give to other people's children for a full-moon party.
Even the "insignificant" things I gave to Xie Nan and his family last time were all suggestions given by Liu Xiaoli. Yeah, gold jewelry. Although it is tacky, it is festive.
So, I still choose gold jewelry this time.
Noticing the familiar figure approaching, Ms. Liu's eyebrows suddenly curved:
"Come and take a look, we have picked out several items, and we are still hesitating on which two to choose."
Lin Nan and Liu Yifei had one share, and Shu Chang had one share alone, so that was two shares.
Small gold bracelets, gold locks, gold necklaces... not to mention, they are all very delicate and beautiful. Maybe it's mainly because it's gold? !
“So tacky.” Lin Nan joked with a smile.
"Mom said these are the most appropriate gifts. Zhu Yawen is so traditional." Liu Yifei explained with a smile.
"Yes, he definitely likes tacky ones, hehe..." Shu Chang followed, nodding like a fool, which was quite funny.
Lin Nan was speechless. Well, it does make sense. Zhu Yawen is not only traditional, but also a traditional male chauvinist!
He glanced at the one chosen by Liu Yifei and the other two, and then glanced at the one on the counter further inside.
"Changchang, let's just choose a regular size one.
As for Sissy and I, we have been classmates and friends with that guy for more than ten years. We will inevitably suffer a lot of bleeding this time. Once."
Lin Nan smiled and looked at the counter shopping guide: "Excuse me, is there a larger size of the gold lock?"
The latter is obviously still immersed in the excitement of receiving big stars:
“Some, some, starting from 10 grams and upwards, 24 grams, 68 grams... 188 grams... The largest one weighs one kilogram... ..."
Hey guys, Liu Yifei and Shu Chang were both shocked. Is it so heavy?
"Lin Nan, you don't know how?"
Miss Liu knows Director Lin better, and looking at his eager expression, she instantly understood his mind.
"What a coincidence. A one-kilogram gold lock is just a gift for his daughter! Haha..."
While Lin Nan was laughing and ordering the gift, someone from the General Administration was also very happy. Happy,
...
Jiang Zhiqiang and Anle's two senior executives were sitting in the conference room of the General Administration.
In Jiang Zhiqiang’s opinion, the incident involving the arrest of “Monster Hunt” is almost “over”.
Even if Lin Nan Pictures refuses to give up, what can it do?
It is true that Lin Nan Pictures is a large company with large capital, but it cannot represent the entire mainland film industry, and it does not have a monopoly!
The penalty from the General Administration is the final penalty, and Lin Nan Pictures must accept it!
"Mr. Jiang, I hope you will learn a lesson this time. This kind of disruptive, illegal, and illegal thing that disrupts the market will not happen again. Otherwise, your distribution qualifications and theater qualifications will have to be reviewed. "
"Don't worry, Bureau Tong and Bureau Zhang, the company will bear the responsibility for the mistakes made by the management. We will also keep our word and continue to push forward with fines..."
< br>
"Let's come back after the notification documents come out."
"Okay. Thank you two leaders. I'm sorry for bothering the bureau."
More than ten minutes later, Jiang looked relaxed. Xeon left the General Administration together with company executives.
The "meeting" in Tong Gang's office did not end.
“For things like this, the punishment should be more severe. The punishment is too light. Not to mention revoking the qualifications, at least the business must be suspended for a while for rectification.”
"Cinema chain cinemas are not just cinemas, but cinemas as the main body. Many vendors have to eat.
Pause for a while? Who would go to a cinema not to watch movies, but just to spend money in other shops? What? This will affect the livelihood of many people, so we must be cautious.”
Tong Gang has no choice but to consider the overall situation and proceed from the big picture.
"But I think Lin Nan will not stop. Both of them are not small companies. If they continue to fight like this, it will even get worse..."
"The bureau has set a tone. Just let Anle apologize, it won’t affect anything.”
Although Tong Gang said this, he was still a little worried in his heart; after all, he also knew Lin Nan, and the latter's temper had obviously become stronger and stronger in the past two years.
…………
For the film and television industry, perhaps they have been waiting to see the final excitement and Lin Nan’s final attitude.
This is related to the bottom line position of Lin Nan, a top director, and Lin Nan Pictures, a film and television giant. Where is it? !
At 12:30 in the afternoon, the film and television circles, entertainment circles, media circles and even the entire Internet finally received the attitude of Lin Nan Pictures - an announcement stamped with the company's official seal.
Immediately, the entire film and television industry was in complete chaos, and the entire Internet was in an uproar.
“After a unanimous vote by the company, Lin Nan Pictures has now decided as follows:
Starting from August, including the postponed animation movie "The Return of the Great Sage":
< br>The film "Get Out! Tumor King" directed by Guo Fan;
The film "Charlotte" directed by Yan Fei and Peng Damo;
Director Xu Zheng's film work, the third part of the "囧" series "囧";
Director Wu Ershan's top IP, fantasy, action and adventure blockbuster "Ghost Blowing the Lamp: The Secret of the Dragon";
The film "Detective Chinatown" directed by Lin Nan.
The above 6 movies will not be distributed and shown in the theater chain of Anle Pictures and 29 movie theaters in 17 cities. The distributor, Enlight Pictures, will cooperate with the implementation.
In addition, starting from today, all films exclusively produced by Linnan Pictures, mainly controlled by the company, mainly invested in and has decision-making power, will never be released in theaters under Anle Pictures and in 17 cities. Distributed and shown in 29 movie theaters.
If there are filmmakers who go to Lin Nan Pictures to look for film investment, please know in advance.
This announcement is only a unilateral decision of Lin Nan Pictures and does not involve other partners;
We do not allow people who are robbers and thieves to be exposed to the public after being stolen. Under the nose, it was easy to get away with it openly..."
...
When Lin Nan, Liu Yifei, and Shu Chang chose a restaurant and had a great meal.
Countless filmmakers, production companies, theater companies, and acquaintances in the entire film and television industry are all looking for them like crazy.
Everyone is contacting Director Lin Da and Producer Liu Da!
But it is a pity that after everyone calls, they all get the same "answer": the number you dialed has been turned off...
What follows is a massive amount of text messages and social media. Messages, Weibo messages, etc. were all sent out in an effort to receive responses from the two of them.
In addition, a large number of media reporters rushed to Lin Nan Pictures as soon as possible.
Including the company's front desk phone number, Yue Jun, Jiang Yuerou, Lu Yang, Guo Fan and others were all targeted, and the phone calls continued to be bombarded.
There is a lot of discussion in the industry, like an earthquake; the Internet is in chaos, and public opinion is in an uproar.
Even major state-owned enterprises, associations, art schools, and competent authorities have all paid attention to it - the impact is too great!
…………
“This is so awesome! Is this a unilateral blockade of theaters by the production company?”
"Six movies have withdrawn from the theaters of Anle Pictures... You must know that "Hong Kong", "The Secret of the Dragon", and "Detective Chinatown" are recognized as the three movies with a box office of 1 billion!"
"Director Lin Nan was really hit by the enemy this time. He was so cruel." , and it is indeed ruthless! The movies produced by Lin Nan Pictures have always been guaranteed to be box office.”
“It’s hard to say whether Anle Pictures will die this time, but their theater company will definitely be paralyzed. ! This is just the second half of the year, and there are already 6 commercial movies!”
“If you think about it carefully, it seems that only Lin Nan Films is capable and qualified to do this kind of operation. ! High production, high quality, high box office, high reputation, strong box office appeal! ”
"The people in Anle are really out of their minds, and this time they kicked the iron wall."
"There is no need for sanctions from the General Administration, Lin Nan Pictures will impose sanctions on its own! This is still unilateral, without finding allies. Strong, Confident and domineering! ”
……
Online public opinion spread in a very short period of time, from the mainland to Hong Kong and Taiwan, from the Internet to the entire industry...
But Lin Nan and Liu Yifei had no news and could not be found.
"This time, Lin Nan won." Wang Zhongjun looked at the information on the Internet and came to a conclusion with certainty.
Not to mention the theater chains under Anle Pictures, even the theater chains under Huayi cannot withstand such a knife.
In the production industry, Lin Nan Pictures is definitely one of the top companies in the country.
"The sesame seeds were stolen, the watermelons were gone, and there will never be any more. I have to say, Lin Nan was too decisive this time. Just don't know what's going on?"
"How many films does the film industry produce in a year? Lin Nan Pictures is far from a monopoly and cannot be controlled by the higher authorities!"
"When it comes to box office output, he is among the best."
"No matter how high the box office is, it cannot be used to arbitrarily dominate the market monopoly!"
When it comes to box office, Wang Zhongjun suddenly loses his mood.
Although the recent stock market has not plummeted all the time, it has been hovering between skyrocketing and plummeting. This means there is almost no change or recovery.
Huayi's market value dropped from 90 billion to less than 45 billion in just one and a half months. This made him extremely frustrated. He had to have a high-grossing movie to boost his morale.
But the schedule of "Old Paoer" is... Although it is the biggest schedule, it is surrounded by wolves, especially Lin Nan Pictures' "The Secret of the Dragon" and "Detective Chinatown" The two most powerful movies are attacking each other, and it can really be said that they are in a "difficult situation"!
"How are the preparations for Xiaogang's "I'm Not Pan Jinlian" going?"
"Liu Zhenyun is still working on the script, and Director Feng is already scouting the locations. Oh, by the way. , Zhang Mo is following the crew."
"Well, just follow. This is what we promised Guoli."
In the office, the conversation between the two brothers really didn't feel awkward at all.
Obviously we are de-simplifying and even de-filming movies, but at the same time we are counting on high-grossing movies to stimulate stock prices! ?
…………
At the General Administration at this time, opposite Tong Gang were Zhang Hongsen and La Peikang.
"I really didn't expect it. I just praised Haikou in the morning and said it wouldn't have any impact, and it's almost here. Less than two hours later, he slapped me."
There was no hint of anger in Tong Gang's words, just some helplessness.
"I acted as an intermediary for Jiang Zhiqiang that day and called Lin Nan, but was rejected. His tone was very aggressive and he hung up on me. If I had known better..."
La Peikang did regret it. When he called Han Sanping afterwards, the latter just sighed and told him not to think too much after a long time. But with Han Sanping's tone, how could La Peikang not think more about it? !
"Let them go. The industry produces so many movies every year, and Anle will not be without movie screenings. They should pay the price they deserve. Although the price Lin Nan paid is a bit heavy, it is It’s your own fault.”
Tong Gang’s sigh completely set the tone for this matter.
…………
In the industry, almost everyone’s focus is on Lin Nan Pictures’ unilateral announcement to “block” Anle Cinemas.
Of course, as the target of direct targeting, Anle Pictures is already in a state of panic and irritability.
There was a quarrel within the company. All kinds of curses and noises were mixed together, making it impossible for people to calm down.
“Director Jiang, Lin Nan Pictures has gone too far.”
"We have obviously put down our attitude and are willing to apologize and make up for his losses. He doesn't want it! Why, must we revoke our qualifications and kill them all?"
"He is taking advantage of the situation and bullying others! "
"What do shareholders say? What do shareholders think of Lin Nan Pictures' box office output... Our theater chain, hey, here!"
...
In In such a noisy environment in the office, Jiang Zhiqiang still held his forehead with one hand and closed his eyes, thinking.
But that cold expression was enough to show that his mentality at this time was extremely bad.
Even the giants who have dominated the Chinese film industry for many years are having a headache now.
A long time later:
"Send the box office of "Monster Hunt" to 1.5 billion, preferably 2 billion...then immediately start a project to prepare for the second part. Because it is profitable, so we have to Make a sequel!"
Jiang Zhiqiang's sudden voice sounded, and the conference room fell silent for an instant. After a while, the noise started again, but this time it was obviously excited.
"Good idea! Let's solve the current problem first!"
"Even if there are no movies from Lin Nan Pictures in the theater chain, their movies are not the only ones in the industry that have box office appeal and can make money!"
"In the end, all our burdens can be transferred to the stock market..."
"Yes, everything will be paid for by shareholders!"
"Just do it!"
…………
For two consecutive days, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei did not appear outside.
Because there are many media vehicles squatting outside Lin Nan Pictures, Hongxingwu, and even the villa area. You have perseverance and can persevere!
In fact, during the past two days at home, Lin Nan and Miss Liu also received a lot of phone calls. In addition to sighing that he is awesome, he is just joking and flattering.
Originally Lin Nan thought that the General Administration or the Film Bureau would contact him, but from the looks of it, the higher-ups acquiesced to his behavior.
On the morning of the 27th, Liu Yifei and Lin Nan got up very early because they were going to Zhu Yawen's place this morning.
This guy called yesterday afternoon to remind me, and the baby's cry could still be heard faintly around.
"She will go by herself, we don't have to wait for her."
Liu Yifei walked out of the cloakroom wearing a green floral dress and high-heeled sandals.
Today’s bun is tied a little high, and that oval face looks more lively and delicate.
"Sissi, remember to bring a gift."
Lin Nan smiled and pointed to the gift box on the table in the living room, which weighed one kilogram.
Hearing this, Liu Yifei couldn’t help but laugh.
She rolled her eyes at Lin Nan, holding the bag in her left hand and picking up the box with her right hand casually, "She is really a 'daughter'."
"Today I have designated Lao Zhu Call me 'Dad'!"
"You guys are so boring!"
Liu Yifei complained while naturally stuffing the gift box and bag to Lin Nan: "Are you embarrassed to let me carry heavy things?"
" This is not for you to try your luck, Liu Nuxia! Okay, let’s go.”
A few minutes later, a particularly conspicuous red Ferrari rushed out. The villa area.
The media who were still squatting outside immediately determined that it was Liu Yifei's car and immediately chased after it.
......
Zhu Yawen was indescribably happy when she became a father for the first time. Anyway, the specifications of Full Moon Wine were top-notch.
For this reason, he specially rented a manor, and there were many security personnel.
When Lin Nan and Liu Yifei arrived, the place was already bustling.
At a glance, they are all acquaintances in the circle.
Of course, there are also the parents and relatives of Zhu Yawen and Shen Jiani, as well as the bridesmaids and best men when they got married. Generally speaking, the number of guests has not increased or decreased, they are still the same people.
“Oh my, I’ve been waiting for you two for a long time.”
From a distance, Zhu Yawen and Shen Jiani came up to them. Most of the people around him were smiling and looking at him.
I saw Zhu Yawen coming straight to Lin Nan. To be precise, he came for the gift box in Lin Nan's arms.
"Tsk, tsk, tsk, it's two pounds. Director Lin, Producer Liu, I would like to thank you both on behalf of my daughter. Haha..."
Hey guys, someone leaked the news!
Lin Nan and Liu Yifei looked at each other, then looked at Shu Chang who was making a face in the distance.
“It’s an advantage for you.”
Lin Nan threw it directly and was caught by Zhu Yawen. Why does this guy's smile look so mean?
"He is worthy of being a great director and producer. He is richer than me!"
As he walked into a group of acquaintances, Luo Jin couldn't help but joke.
“When you have a son or daughter, we will also prepare one for you!”
When Liu Yifei said this, she glanced at Tang Yan beside her in a joking manner, The latter apparently took a leave of absence from the crew of "Westward Journey to the West 3: The Final Chapter".
The surrounding people were already laughing, because of Liu Yifei’s eyes and because of Luo Jin and Tang Yan’s embarrassment.
"What are you two doing, in broad daylight?"
Luo Jin reacted quickly and immediately changed the subject.
Following his voice, the people around them all looked at Lin Nan and Zhu Yawen, and saw that the former was "touching" the latter!
Except for the smiling Liu Yifei, a group of people were dumbfounded and looked at the scene in front of them in shock:
I saw Lin Nan pinching Zhu Yawen’s arm and patting her thigh. , touched the chest muscles and abdominal muscles...
The latter was "scared" and backed away repeatedly, blocking with both hands, and even joked:
"Director Lin, although my figure is very good, brother, I don't do homosexuality! I don't accept subverts either. Rules! You really gave these two pounds of gold locks with bad intentions...Yifei, please take care of him."
"You are a big man and you don't want to be taken advantage of. , maybe something good will happen soon."
Liu Yifei laughed so hard that she and Shu Chang supported each other.
Many people around were also dumbfounded and had already picked up their mobile phones to record the video. This is quite explosive "black material".
But at this time, Lin Nan had already stopped.
Under the gaze of everyone, Director Lin looked at Zhu Yawen and nodded with satisfaction:
“I’ll give you two months to keep fit, and your muscle lines will be more obvious. , you can find a professional coach..."
"What are you doing?"
Zhu Yawen had some guesses and asked in surprise.
At this moment, one thought flashed through the minds of many insiders at the venue - that movie from Lin Nan Pictures!
Immediately, the male actors were all envious and wished they could replace Zhu Yawen;
Almost all the female artists present were moving towards Liu Yifei's position.
"After today, hurry up and practice. The second male lead of "Operation Mekong" can be given to you."
As Lin Nan's words fell to the ground, the scene exploded with a bang. Got it!
"Fuck me!"
"Director Lin..."
"Yifei..."
"Producer Liu..."
