Chapter 873 Financing Celebration Reception, "Operation Mekong" Shooting Plan
"Bazaar Charity officially updated the latest guest list. Director Lin Nan and Liu Yifei confirmed that they will attend the Bazaar Star Charity Dinner held in Beijing on the evening of the 23rd. "
"This Harper's Bazaar Charity Dinner is the first public event in the industry for Director Lin Nan and Liu Yifei after their marriage, which is very exciting."
"Yu Zheng strongly refuted the entire network. "The Romance of the Han Dynasty" has negative reviews, calling Yang Ying the most beautiful woman in the country..."
...
A red Ferrari drove into Nortel, it was Lin Nan.
He received a call from Xue Xiaolu, saying that the post-production of "Love in Seattle 2" has been completed and asked him to come over and take a look at the finished film.
Inside the school, freshmen who have just finished their military training are returning to school;
Although they are all dressed in camouflage, they still cannot hide their appearance without makeup.
All the men are handsome, and all the women are beautiful, with more or less innocence. After all, we are still just a freshman.
Lin Nan's figure was particularly eye-catching among the crowd.
It has been 20 days since the start of school, and all the new students have thoroughly "recognized" Lin Nan, both from the school and from the teachers.
This is the biggest "opportunity" that current students can encounter in school and have the opportunity to encounter, the ceiling of the industry!
“Look at the way those little girls look at you, they are all shining.”
Before Lin Nan arrived at the literature department, he met Lao Zhou, who was once in the performance department. Counselor, only for one semester.
"You can't say this nonsense. I am now married and have a wife. They are just, um, admiring or admiring."
"Haha... I remember your class is not today. ? Why are you here?"
"Sister Xue is looking for me. The post-production of the movie is done. I have to go to the school to see who is taking my class."
Lin Nan almost forgot about it if it wasn't for Lao Zhou's reminder.
“Hey, there aren’t any new students anyway, they were all snatched up by the veterans.”
Wow, Lin Nan really made me guess, the newcomer is so young!
In less than two minutes, after getting rid of Lao Zhou, Lin Nan went straight to the literature department.
"Why did you come so quickly today? Did I just call half an hour ago?"
Xue Xiaolu was quite surprised to see Lin Nan.
“I was just at Happy Twist, and voted for a movie. I came right over after receiving a call from Sister Xue.”
Lin Nan did not fool Xue Xiaolu. He had just read the first draft of the script of "Donkey Gets Water" and asked the company to transfer the money to Happy Twist.
"You are quite busy. How is "Operation Mekong" going?"
"The characters will be decided in these two days and will be launched during the National Day!"
Lin Nan Following Xue Xiaolu all the way to the screening room, the two chatted while walking.
Xue Xiaolu did not cut many scenes in "Love in Seattle 2". After all, it is a female-oriented love movie, so it must be more delicate.
Looking at Yang Mi's performance on the screen, Lin Nan didn't know what to say. She had some acting skills, wasn't this just "squeezing" them out? !
"Sister Xue, what do you think about the schedule? I remember last time it was the first half of next year, right?"
"Well, the Lunar New Year schedule and the Spring Festival schedule at the end of the year must be No, your company only has two blockbusters, and Stephen Chow's "Mermaid";
The Valentine's Day movie won't work either, it's too close to "Mermaid", I'm going to put it on the May Day movie It will be released at the end of April, what do you think?”
I have to say that Xue Xiaolu has taken all the objective factors into consideration, and it seems that she does have great expectations and ambitions for the box office.
"Yes, it's very good. Let's go to the May Day stall."
Lin Nan nodded and said without objection.
At this time, suddenly, someone knocked on the door of the screening room:
"Professor Xue, your invitation letter has been placed on your desk. It seems to be sent by Jiaxing Media Yeah, it’s Yang Mi’s company.”
“Okay, thank you.”
At this moment, not only Xue Xiaolu was curious, but Lin Nan was also curious.
Five minutes later, the two returned to the literature department office, and Lin Nan also saw the invitation letter given to Xue Xiaolu by Jiaxing.
“‘Jiaxing Media’s First Round Financing Celebration Reception…’, has her company developed to this point?” Xue Xiaolu looked at Lin Nan in surprise.
“How did I know? You really did a big thing quietly!”
Lin Nan chuckled and said perfunctorily. I think by now the news has spread to the outside world, right?
Just as Lin Nan expected, when he left Nortel at around 11 a.m., news from Jiaxing Media could be seen everywhere on the Internet.
And depending on the situation, we cannot rule out the possibility that Jiaxing has also conducted public relations to build momentum for this matter!
“In the morning, Jiaxing Media announced that the company has obtained the first round of investment from Shangshi Pictures; the company plans to hold a film and television industry financing celebration reception in Beijing on October 10.”
"It is reported that the specific amount of this round of financing for Jiaxing Media is unknown, and the details of the financing are unknown. The industry speculates that Jiaxing Media and Shangshi Pictures will most likely disclose the specific financing matters and investment process, total amount and related matters at the celebration reception. Terms..."
"This morning, most film and television companies, filmmakers, actors, celebrities, and entertainers in the industry have received invitations to Jiaxing Media's celebration cocktail party..."
"Produced by Bona, written and directed by director Wang Jing, starring Zhou Runfa, Liu Dehua, Zhang Xueyou, Zhang Jiahui, Liu Jialing, Li Yuchun, Xiang Eiqiang, Xiang Zuo and others, "Macau Storm 3" lasted for one and a half months and was released today Filming was officially completed in the morning.
Director Wang Jing said in an interview that "Macau 3" will be scheduled for the Spring Festival and will not be afraid of any competition in the film..."...
Sure enough, both Lin Nan Pictures and Hongxingwu received invitation letters from Jiaxing, and they were handwritten by Yang Mi because they had her signature.
In Lin Nan's opinion, using the word "heart higher than the sky" to describe Yang Mi is very accurate. When she left Shanhai Media, it was just for "today", and now she has done it.
"It's hard to say whether I'm going or not, because I can't tell now whether I'll have time.
"Operation Mekong" will indeed start shooting in the capital first, but will it have already transferred to Yunnan or Bangkok on the 10th? Not sure yet."
Lan Nan and Liu Yifei were talking about this matter.
Not many people in the circle will reject a financing celebration reception like this, because it means that another company has embarked on the road of capital, and no one will not give face to others and will take advantage of it. A joyous one.
“I’m quite curious about the valuation at which their company was financed? She seems to be the mainstay, right?”
Liu Yifei was sitting there, with the two cats holding her feet on the left and right as she swung them, meowing and meowing, enjoying themselves endlessly.
“A billion or so at most. For investors, a low valuation is not good, and a high valuation is not good either. More than a billion is the most suitable!”
Speaking of which , Lin Nan paused, and he thought of potatoes again. Why hasn’t there been any movement from Youku? It should be soon, right?
......
The popular "The Pretender" is currently on the air, coupled with the "Nirvana in Fire" that has also become a hit just two days after it was aired, after a few years, Hu Ge once again returned to his position as the most popular actor in the TV drama circle. It feels like the king has returned after being out of business for a few years!
But compared to Hu Ge's smooth sailing, the Tang people were a bit miserable.
I don’t know if the company that pried Jiang Jinfu out has exerted its efforts. Now the Internet is full of black material about the Tang Dynasty.
I just need to make a list and publish all the actors and stars in the industry that the Tang Dynasty hired trolls to smear in recent years.
There are even rumors that the reason why "Pocahontas" passed the review was because of dirty deals!
The Tang people, who were once proficient in using the navy, also showed fatigue for the first time and could not cope with it.
That kind of waning twilight is exposed nakedly in front of the film and television industry; I guess there will be more and more colleagues who follow Tang people in the future, because they all see clearly its reality.
On the 22nd, Lin Nan did not take Liu Yifei with him but went to the premiere of "囧 in Hong Kong" alone as he and Wang Changtian had said before.
This movie, recognized by the industry as a box office hit of 1 billion+, is the focus of attention of the entire industry and media. The premiere was overcrowded.
And director Xu Zheng is the center of attention.
Because many people in the film industry believe that this third part of the "囧" series has a high probability of reaching more than 2 billion, and it has been promoted this way before.
Once this movie really reaches 2 billion, Xu Zheng will be the second commercial director in China to have a box office of 2 billion+ after Lin Nan. He will be really hot!
At the beginning of the movie, Lin Nan and Wang Changtian were sitting together.
"Box office is one of them. I hope this movie can bring out the artists of my company."
Lin Nan smiled, Lao Wang is still making up his mind?
"Director Wang, have you ever seen the finished film of "囧 in Hong Kong" before?"
"No, just like you, today is the first time to see the finished film. Just to have a surprise." Wang Changtian laughed.
"Then let's talk about it after reading it, and see what the difference is between your company's Bao Bei'er and Wang Baoqiang."
Lin Nan meant something, he admired Wang Baoqiang.
As the movie played, the laughter of the guests did not stop. Xu Zheng fully upgraded the movie to make it more than just a comedy.
But in Lin Nan's opinion, Xu Zheng used too much force, and he failed to balance the two lines of emotional scenes and action scenes well.
He hopes to use the emotional line as the driving force to drive the entire movie and make it more sublime than the first two films of "囧", but the emotional line is still weak.
The smile on Wang Changtian's face has faded a bit compared to other guests.
"Dr. Wang, did you see it?"
Lin Nan asked jokingly.
If there were no "People on the Road" and "囧囧", then Xu Zheng's "Hong Kong囧" would be absolutely fine;
But with the comparison of the first two films, the problems of "囧 in Hong Kong" are bigger, and the biggest problem lies with Bao Bei'er.
Crude, forced, and unnatural, it looks like an act at first glance, and it feels like someone is deliberately pretending to be stupid.
In other words, Bao Beier is imitating Wang Baoqiang. But it’s a pity that painting a tiger cannot be an anti-dog!
"The box office won't be too affected, right?"
The smile on Wang Changtian's face has disappeared, although many people at the scene are still enjoying themselves and laughing.
"With the strong popularity of the first two movies and the pretty good plot, there shouldn't be a big problem at the box office; but there will definitely be criticism, and it won't be small. Let the people in your company be mentally prepared."
< br>Lin Nan gave her own advice in a low voice, and then added with a smile:
“You can learn from Wang Baoqiang, but you can’t be like him, because no matter how similar you are, it’s fake, and you have to have something of your own. In addition, Don’t be too arrogant, everyone outside knows the name of Brother Guangguang.
Before Zhang Yi and others opened the studio, there were only four of them in our company, but they never called themselves that outside!" br>
