Chapter 851 I’ll vote for the remaining 5 million
At around 11 noon, in response to a big explosion in Tianjin, the donation list of the film and television industry was successively exposed on the official websites of the public security, fire protection, etc. The accident was really Very miserable.
Jackie Chan, 3 million; Huang Xiaoming and Yang Ying, 2 million; Fan Bingbing, 1 million; Wu Gan and Xie Nan, 1 million...Xiang Yiqiang 1 million...Yang Mi 800,000...
Huayi 2 million, Guangguang...Bona...Anle Pictures 5 million...Bazaar...
It cannot be denied that sometimes donating money is also very "fastidious".
If you donate too much, you will be too conspicuous and unsocial; if you donate too little, even though it is your intention, you will definitely be criticized and ridiculed by many people.
So, after careful consideration, Lin Nan chose to donate 6 million in his and Liu Yifei’s personal names.
After all, there are two people. This number won’t seem too much, it’s just right.
As for the artists in the circle who donate money in the name of their companies and studios, Lin Nan never thinks there is anything wrong with their approach. Donating is a good thing.
It’s just that he doesn’t feel that it is necessary, because even if it is a tax deduction, how much can it be deducted? For Lin Nan Pictures, the tax deduction is really dispensable.
At the same time, in this situation where public figures in the industry "work together", there are also some "interesting" things happening.
Logically speaking, donation should be a pure thing;
But often some impure people say a few more words and add other things after donating. As for causing quite a stir in public opinion.
For example, she would like to emphasize:
My family has always been charitable, committed to charity, and has a clean background...but they are always slandered and slandered by many people with ulterior motives on the Internet, using all possible means. Dirty, shameless...
But not to mention, with the "momentum" of donations, not only many actors, stars, public figures and media responded to her, but there were also unexpectedly many netizens who expressed support online!
I just don’t know how many of the so many netizens are spontaneous and how many are “purchased”?
......
"The total box office of "Get Out! Tumor King" in the first week was 430 million. If it continues to maintain, it will definitely exceed 700 million."
< br>At noon, Lin Nan did not go back, but had a meal with Guo Fan and others who had finished their promotion.
"Well, I believe it can easily exceed 700 million, but it's hard to say how much stamina this movie will have. After all, it doesn't cost much, and it's not a big production."
Although Guo Ban said this , but there was no expression of regret on his face at all, he was already very satisfied.
Ma Chun and Jiao Junyan, who were sitting at the same table, also looked happy, because a movie with a high box office is of great help to the actors participating in the starring role.
The reason why only Ma Chun and Jiao Junyan followed Guo Fan today is because Shu Chang flew to the Magic City like Liu Yifei, and Luo Jin also had other announcements,
"What about you?" "July and Ansheng", got it?"
Lin Nan glanced at Ma Chun and asked with a smile.
"Director Lin knows?"
"With the mainland and Hong Kong Island, the upper level of the film industry is only so big. It is not a project that is deliberately kept secret. It is not a secret at all in the small circle. It is rumored that Very quickly.
And Chen Kexin is indeed a great director. Among the top circles in the industry, it is an open secret that literary films are his strong point! ”
Lin Nan explained that even if he didn't want to ask, someone would take the initiative to mention it in his ear.
It can only be said that the Hong Kong circle is still the same Hong Kong circle. Even though it is declining, it is still trying its best to support its own people, the old and the new.
This time, the new director who is personally produced and supported by Peter Chan is none other than Eric Tsang’s son, a second-generation Hong Kong actor with a well-established background.
“Well, my uncle took me around, and I got it without even auditioning.”
Ma Chun smiled sheepishly, after all, this kind of role got the role. method, she was indeed a little embarrassed to tell it bluntly.
Sure enough, when Jiao Junyan next to him heard this, his eyes were full of envy.
"But there are still a few months before the start of filming, and preparations are still underway there."
"You should be quite suitable for literary films." Guo Fan smiled and nodded affirmatively.
“Thank you, Director Guo, thank you, Director Lin.”
…………
In the film and television industry, as long as an actor becomes famous instantly, the resources will be I keep looking for them, especially similar resources.
In the afternoon, Lin Nan was originally invited by Yan Fei to watch the drama "The Donkey Gets Water", but he received a call from Yue Jun midway.
Since three of the company's artists successfully set up a studio half a month ago, it has now been officially opened. In other words, many announcements and drama appointments have been received in the name of the studio.
What Yue Jun said in the news is that she made the decision on Zhao Liying's studio and took over the first drama after the studio was established!
Because "Flower Thousand Bones" has not yet finished its premiere on Mango Channel, it still dominates the ratings list of current TV series, and its popularity remains high, ranking first in the TV series circle, so An olive branch was extended.
"It's Huanrui. They sent an invitation to ask Xiao Zhao to be the female lead in a new drama, partnering with their company's popular artist Li Yifeng. Just like the previous "Gu Jian Qi Tan", A big one, well, it will probably take another two or three months to prepare before it can be launched
The salary they offered was quite good, and it was also a top IP. Then Xiao Zhao signed the contract after considering it for a few days. Director Lin, let me tell you, I almost picked up this novel..."
""Zhu Xian"? ”
Lin Nan sighed lightly,
When it comes to IP, there are really many, many, and not one person or company can win them all or eat most of them. Yes, because almost all companies in the film and television industry are grabbing and hoarding.
The popular IPs that Yue Jun has missed are not just one, two, or three, but there is no doubt that he is in the IP copyright circle. "Well-known figure", top "copyright dealer", famous!
"Well, now that she has signed, let's get ready. For them now, the studio has just been established, making money is indeed the first priority in their hearts! After all, they are already the boss, they have pressure and motivation, haha ..."
After briefly chatting with Yue Jun, Lin Nan hung up the phone. For artists who have already established studios, the company should not interfere too much. This is out of respect.
Returning to the audience seat again, "Donkey Gets Water" on the stage is already finishing.
“What do you think, Director Lin?”
“It’s really good!”
Lin Nan nodded and affirmed.
The top actors are basically on the drama stage, drama actors are also despised in the entertainment industry, and they are the only ones higher than movie actors.
But compared with film actors, professional drama actors can only be "proud" of their acting skills after all. When it comes to other external things, such as fame, income, industry status, influence, etc., Far from it!
Who makes movies belong to the big screen, while dramas are only niche.
“Before, the reason why I told you that the cost of changing it into a movie will not exceed 15 million is because they will use the heroine of the play, which is the same as "Charlotte" and is cheap."< br>
Yan Fei introduced in a low voice from the side, while Lin Nan turned his eyes to the actress on the stage.
"The acting is very good, but with her looks... maybe the acting scope is a bit narrow? Can it only be literary and realistic films, or maybe add a comedy?"
Hearing what Lin Nan said, Yan Fei followed the words and looked at the actress taking her bow on the stage, and then echoed helplessly:
"Director Lin, as soon as you say this, others may I don’t even have a head start, haha... But it is indeed possible that I can only take the acting route."
Yan Fei commented tactfully, this is true.
"Let's go, don't you want to take me to the backstage?"
Lin Nan stood up and reminded.
"Well, come with me. I have already told them in advance that you will come to watch the show this afternoon."
Backstage of the theater in five minutes.
A group of people looked at Yan Fei and Lin Nan in front of them, and they were all quite restrained, mainly because of Lin Nan.
"Director Lin, let me introduce to you. This is the heroine of our play today, Ren Suxi. She graduated from China National Theater and is in the same major as you."
"Hello, Director Lin. , I am Ren Suxi. I have watched all your movies, and I watched this year's "Manchester by the Sea" twice..."
In the crowd, I saw Ren Su who had not yet had time to change clothes. Xi took a step forward awkwardly, half-lowered her body, and stretched out her hand.
For ordinary actors in the industry, the aura of a great director is really oppressive.
With a smile on his face, Lin Nan tried his best not to make the other party nervous, and shook hands.
"Or director Jiang Wen's junior sister... huh? Well, I forgot, he is from the acting department."
Lin Nan made a joke, and the atmosphere instantly relaxed and started to laugh. Voice.
But what about the directing department of Chinese Opera? Just like Nortel’s performance department! Weak, very weak!
"I dare not compare myself with Director Jiang. I am not good at studying and cannot be a director. I can only earn a living as an actor."
Huh? Lin Nan's eyes lit up, he was very nice, he was someone who knew how to answer questions.
"It's not easy for an actor to make a living, but your acting skills are not inferior to those from the Chinese Opera Performance Class."
"Thank you, Director Lin, for the compliment. You are a great trainer on the stage of drama."
Looking at Ren Suxi who was smiling, a little... indeed... well, quite ordinary, Lin Nan didn't say anything else.
“Just feel free to prepare for this movie. Happy Mahua will help you with the financing, production and post-production.”
Amidst the thanks, Lin Nan and Yan Fei left Backstage.
...
"How do you decide on Happy Twist? How much to invest?"
Sitting in the driver's seat, looking through the car window, Lin Nan asked Yan Fei who was standing outside. He previously suggested investing all in, but it seems that it is a bit "difficult" for Ma Hua to do so?
"Director Lin, "Charlotte Troubles" hasn't been released yet, and the promotion is expensive. The theater's revenue is just like that, and Shen Teng's artist managers... are still third-tier now..."
"You just said you were going to ask me how much I wanted, right?" Lin Nan couldn't help but laugh. With just that little money, is there anyone who is so poor?
Sure enough, after hearing what Lin Nan said, Yan Fei immediately smiled, as if his evil plan had succeeded.
"Just prepare a budget of 15 million. The company can take up to 10 million..."
"Okay, I will invest the remaining 5 million. ”
Before Yan Fei could finish speaking, Lin Nan had interrupted him with a rather joking smile.
"Okay, okay, thank you so much, Director Lin."
Without any further chat, Lin Nan said goodbye decisively; in the rearview mirror, Yan Fei was still waving his hand, his figure getting smaller and smaller.
The black big G went straight to the Capital Airport, where Director Lin was going to pick someone up.
Flying there in the morning and flying back in the evening, Ms. Liu really didn’t plan to stay in Shanghai for a moment longer. In her words: It’s better to stay at home and feel more comfortable!
…………
The next morning, several pieces of film and television information were included in the hot searches, attracting the attention of the industry and the entire Internet.
"Adapted from Guo Jingming's best-selling novel of the same name, starring Feng Shaofeng, Song Qian, Ma Tianyu, Zhang Meng, Jin Xishan, Xu Jiao and others, the large-scale fantasy costume TV series "Fantasy City" officially started filming in the morning."
"Anle Pictures announced:
As the company is the main producer, the fantasy film masterpiece "Monster Hunt" has achieved a high box office of 1.901 billion and has been widely praised;
The company has unanimously decided to launch the "Monster Hunt" series project and officially prepare for the sequel of "Monster Hunt", namely "Monster Hunt 2""
"Anle Pictures' announcement stated that the director and production team of "Monster Hunt 2" will spend at least a year carefully polishing the script of "Monster Hunt 2" and preparing the special effects composition;
"Monster Hunt 2" On the basis of ensuring the original cast, more powerful celebrities will be invited to join;
Compared with the first part, "Monster Hunt 2" will significantly increase the production cost, add special effects shots, and will be more Exciting and more fantastic, this will contribute to the development of domestic films.”
“The Busan International Film Festival will officially open on October 1. On the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the film festival, the organizing committee announced yesterday afternoon. Selected as one of the top ten directors in Asia by the Busan Film Festival
Director Jia Zhangke became the only mainland film director selected and the youngest among the top ten directors; in addition, director Wang Jiawei from Hong Kong, Hou Xiaoxian from Taiwan, and Director Yang Dechang was selected! ”
...
There was a lot of news on the Internet, and it was even more ironic, and Lin Nan was a little overwhelmed for a while.
Anle Pictures is really shameless to the extreme, and is it still contributing to the development of domestic films? Using shady means to falsify the box office to add fuel to the fire?
Although Lin Nan’s focus is on Anle Pictures’ high-sounding “disgusting” announcement, the focus of debate among netizens is the “Top Ten Asian Film Festival” selected by the Busan International Film Festival in South Korea. "The best director"!
In the huge mainland film market, the second largest ticket market in the world, only Jia Zhangke, a great director, has been selected? And in Taiwan, a tiny province, there are two people?
You must know that there are many great directors in the mainland who "cut melons and vegetables" at international film festivals. What does South Korea want to do?
While countless netizens were scolding the Busan International Film Festival and South Korea, they were also debating the rankings and seats of major mainland directors. This messy quarrel really left the director circle in the industry speechless.
“As the third director in the Chinese-language film industry to receive Golden Lion and Golden Bear awards, and the first Mainland China director to receive Golden Globe and Oscar Best Director, isn’t it inevitable that you, Director Lin, will be on top?”
Yue Jun smiled and placed an invitation letter in front of Lin Nan - "Busan International Film Festival and 20th Anniversary Invitation Letter"!
"Haha, do you think I have time? Or am I interested?" Lin Nan rolled his eyes.
"This is handled by the relevant departments, cultural exchanges between China and South Korea..."
Seeing Lin Nan's "disgusting" look, Yue Jun stopped talking.
He smiled and waved his hand: "Director Lin is busy, so I will go there first. The investment conference on the third floor will start in an hour."
Lin Nan glanced again I glanced at the invitation on the table, and saw that a regional B-type film festival was more fanciful than an international A-type film festival?
Tsk, tsk, tsk, it is indeed the South Korean style, so thick-skinned!
Walking to the window and looking at the increasing number of brand-name vehicles downstairs and the media reporters who had been waiting early, Lin Nan decided to leave work early to avoid being blocked by too many people later.
“Nine thirty in the morning? Well, it can’t be considered as leaving early.”
……
Brother Dong, who just married the milk tea sister, spent 10 million to make a couple The two people donated money in their names and won unanimous support from netizens;
But who would have thought that his behavior, just after it was reported, would directly lead to the murder of the old horse next door. Force donations online!
Jack Ma's Weibo was directly criticized by countless netizens, and he was completely ruined.
As noon approached, the topic "forced donation" had already topped the list of hot searches on Weibo and topped the headlines of major portals, but Alibaba remained silent.
When Lin Nan stayed at home and read the news, he felt quite emotional.
On the one hand, there is moral kidnapping, and on the other hand, there is Ma, the richest man who likes "speeches" and is like a "myth". It is impossible to evaluate!
"The company has no artists now, and has set up studios for them. Artist management business is not the main business in the first place, and the people signed at the beginning were just 'following the trend', haha..."
< br>
Lin Nan answered Hou Hongliang's call and said with a smile.
The Noon Sunshine side was casting for the new drama "Ode to Joy", so Hou Hongliang came to ask Lin Nan if there were any actors here who were interested;
Because they had worked there before I promised that if there are any roles in the future, I can give priority to artists from Lin Nan Pictures.
"Director Lin, this is a bit regretful. Then I can only inform Director Kong Sheng and let him decide the role according to the current candidate list, and then start filming."
" Well, it doesn’t matter. We’ll talk about it later when we have a chance. Sunshine at Noon has finally recovered, and there is no shortage of funds. I think the production speed will not be slow, right?”
"Well, that's the plan. I plan to produce two to three TV series every year.
To be honest, Director Lin's approach of setting up a studio for artists inspired me."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
Lin Nan didn't react to the second half of Hou Hongliang's words for a while.
“The Noon Sunshine team is a pure production team, and our current artist management business seems to be a bit conflicting. I just heard what Director Lin said, and a thought suddenly flashed through my mind:< br>
If one day the company's artist management business really drags down the production business, we will definitely not have as many resources as Director Lin to build a studio for them, so we will simply abolish it, haha..."
" The skyrocketing remuneration in the film and television industry is a major trend. Is Producer Hou willing to do so? ”
“For Noon Sunshine, production is the foundation, artist management business is to make quick money; only if the production business is done well, can we stay in the film and television industry for a long time and become bigger and stronger. , Haha..."
Hou Hongliang is always a decisive person, Lin Nan can tell that he is not joking, but is really "inspired" by himself.
"Then I wish you all the best at Noon Sunshine. ”
"Thank you, Director Lin. We'll see you later."
After hanging up the phone, Lin Nan couldn't help but smile, ""Ode to Joy"..."
"What are you laughing at? Are you ready to eat?”
In the distance, at the door of the villa, Liu Yifei was wearing a white printed T-shirt, three-quarter pants, flip-flops, and greeted Lin Nan with her arms folded.
The slightly raised chin showed that Miss Liu was a little angry at this moment, and she urged Lin Nan several times.
Two barking teams squatted on both sides of her, barking at Lin Nan. It felt like a dog fighting against a man's power.
“Here you go, didn’t you answer a phone call?”
“I called you several times before you answered the phone!”
Liu Yifei didn’t say anything. He exposed Lin Nan mercilessly, and his pretty eyes flew wildly.
……
At the dinner table, Liu Xiaoli talked about Chen Jinfei.
The year before last, when Lin Nan and Liu Yifei were on the set of "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom," Chen Jinfei formed a co-production.
He wants Liu Yifei to star and Lin Nan to participate in the investment. Once the two agree, the tiger's skin will be pulled off immediately, and the movie will become a "big project" in an instant;
But unfortunately, they were both rejected by Lin Nan and Liu Yifei in the end.
After that, he asked Liu Xiaoli for help, hoping that Liu’s mother would talk to Lin Nan and Liu Yifei;
But what shocked him was that he was decisively rejected again, and this time the person who rejected him was Liu Xiaoli, whom he had "trusted" the most in so many years!
Ever since that time, Chen Jinfei and Liu Xiaoli seemed to have broken up directly. The former was disheartened...
And this time for the wedding of Lin Nan and Liu Yifei, the invitation list of elders, relatives and friends It was Liu Xiaoli who did it. Now, she is hesitant about Chen Jinfei.
"There has been basically no contact in the past two years. Sissi, Lin Nan, what do you mean?"
Liu Xiaoli looked at Lin Nan and Liu Yifei and asked softly.
Miss Liu glanced at Lin Nan, then looked at her own mother, and nodded after a moment:
"Please. Lin Nan and I discussed this matter before. Mom, you are really in trouble here. "
"Anyway, Mr. Chen should invite me."
Lin Nan nodded, and then added hesitantly: "It's just an invitation. "
Hearing this, Liu Xiaoli immediately felt relieved and had a smile on her face.
Liu Yifei, on the other hand, avoided Liu Xiaoli and glared at Lin Nan cryptically.
She is like a female Sherlock Holmes, how could she not understand the meaning of Lin Nan’s words!
What is a "single invitation"? Don’t you mean, don’t bring that little girlfriend!
Lin Nan responded to Liu Yifei with a curled lips and raised eyebrows: If she really brought it with her, what's the point?
“What’s wrong with you two, are you winking?”
Liu Xiaoli interrupted the "communication" between Liu Yifei and Lin Nan. Although she didn't know what the two were doing, there must be something going on.
"Oh, it's nothing, I'm playing with Lin Nan. Mom, hurry up, the ribs you made today are so delicious, hehe..."
"Yeah, the fish is also Fragrant.”
Lin Nan followed Liu Yifei, flattering her mother-in-law.
"You two just fool me, you must be giving some secret code by winking."
Although Liu Xiaoli was complaining, the smile on her face did not break.
How could the little moves of her daughter and son-in-law escape her eyes? Dancers need to be more alert on stage, especially their eyes and ears. She just doesn’t want to pay attention to the young couple in front of her. I really think she Old?
While the three of them were having lunch, the gossip about Lin Nan Film Industry Investment Promotion Conference had already entered the entertainment headlines and Weibo hot searches, and spread rapidly, making the film and television industry stunned. !
Wang Changtian was even more impatient and called Lin Nan to celebrate.
