Chapter 883 Postponed? Road closure! Kicked out...
In the morning, Lin Nan yawned and walked on the lawn path, stretching his muscles.
Because we are filming in the capital, we don’t have to rush for time. We just need to get to the Ministry of Public Security before 10 o’clock.
He plans to shoot the scenes in the capital in five days, then take a day off on the 7th, and fly to the capital with Liu Yifei on the morning of the 8th to attend Huang Xiaoming's wedding.
At the same time, the filming team of the film crew will arrive in Yunnan within the next two days, including people and machines, waiting for the filming to start again on the afternoon of the 9th;
The logistics team and people from Golden Shield have also rushed over in advance to make preparations: confirm the hotel where the crew will stay, communicate with relevant departments, and contact the border defense system...
At the movie market, "Charlotte" "Trouble" and "囧" continue to maintain their momentum of "bullying and dominating the market";
The two movies received 93.25 million and 142 million respectively yesterday, accounting for a total of 94.8% of the daily box office, showing steady progress. Making the production industry even more miserable.
Many colleagues in the industry even hope that the three imported films this month, "Inside Out," "Ant-Man," and "Peter Pan: Flight of Dreams" will be released in advance;
< br>This is a good way to combat the "arrogance" of "Charlotte Trouble" and "Embarrassed in Hong Kong", so that everyone can take a breath and have the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.
This kind of mentality of hoping that outsiders can help "target" one's own people is really difficult to evaluate! But it's nothing more than profit, plus jealousy and pink eye at most.
"Lin Nan, come back quickly, there's a call."
Liu Yifei's nasal voice came from afar, accompanied by the calls of several barking dogs at the door - - What a bastard!
When Lin Nan returned to the villa, Miss Liu was still eating her bowl of white fungus porridge slowly and leisurely. Was it almost cold?
Because the crew had already started working, Liu Xiaoli deliberately prepared breakfast earlier for the convenience of Lin Nan and Liu Yifei.
But she didn't expect that her daughter would still have breakfast after eight o'clock, starting at 7:30.
"Director Wang asked you to call back and say it's about the movie."
Liu Yifei held a spoon in one hand and swiped the screen of her phone with the other, giving Lin Nan a gesture of pouting. and smile.
"Calling so early? You're really fifty, you're young, and you're still working hard!"
Lin Nan joked and picked up his cell phone on the table and called back.
Sure enough, he knew that there must be nothing "good" about Wang Changtian:
"Xu Zheng and I discussed it and prepared to apply to the Film Bureau for an extension key for "囧", one month!"
Lao Wang’s voice floated clearly around the dining table through the hands-free speaker.
After Liu Yifei heard this, she immediately raised her eyebrows at Lin Nan playfully, smiled and whispered: "It hit!"
Isn't it just a hit? ! Happy Twist called Lin Nan yesterday afternoon;
The box office and word-of-mouth success of "Charlotte Trouble" went hand in hand, both smashing the charts. They are also preparing to apply for an extension key for the movie, which will also be one month!
"I have no opinion, you just decide; I can only remain neutral."
"Neutral?" Wang Changtian was a little confused.
""Charlotte" also needs to apply for an extension. One movie is okay, but the results of these two movies are too good. I'm worried about the bureau..."
Lin That’s it. Sometimes the better a movie’s performance, the more attention it will receive from the boss, especially this month’s National Day release.
To put it bluntly, the box office market was almost sucked dry by the two movies "Charlotte" and "囧"!
Wang Changtian understood what Lin Nan meant, but he would definitely not change his mind just because of this "little problem":
"Then let the two movies compete head-on. Well, let’s see who can get the extension key in the end;
But the probability of getting them all is not impossible, after all, it has been relaxed a little bit now.”
“Well, it’s true. That’s right.”
Lin Nan didn't chat any more, but let Wang Changtian hang up the phone.
"Lin Nan, are you worried?" Liu Yifei put down her spoon and asked softly.
"Sissi, the film market is not a film market for one or two companies and one or two movies."
Looking at Liu Yifei who had finished breakfast, Lin Nan smiled and explained, Then he urged: "Get ready, we will leave soon."
"Hmm, then help me wash the dishes. I have to change clothes, hehe..."
< br>
"Okay, I've convinced you."
Lin Nan smiled helplessly, took Miss Liu's bowl and spoon and walked to the kitchen;
The nanny followed Liu Xiaoli out, so she couldn't really Let's leave this little thing until they come back. If that's the case, it's really too lazy and shouldn't be done.
......
At eleven o'clock in the morning, in the second scene, Chen Baoguo was sitting in an office of the Ministry of Public Security, as was his opponent's actor.
The main camera was shot by Ning Hao himself, while Lin Nan and Liu Yifei sat behind the monitor, "Get ready, action!"
One is at the department level, the other is at the ministerial level, the two actors are facing each other, As an old subordinate, the former naturally reported the details of the "Mekong River Case".
Chen Baoguo, sitting in the office wearing a uniform, has a somewhat different aura than when he was watching the exercise on the exercise ground;
Dignified but also carrying an elegant and upright temperament, so that At the door, some department officials stopped and looked sideways, nodding their heads: "It looks so good, it can look real!"
The duel between the two actors naturally led to the male lead, Gao Gang, the anti-narcotics team member played by Zhang Hanyu!
He will be appointed as the head of the "Mekong River Case" special operations team, Captain!
“Ka, this shot has passed.
The movement of Teacher Chen holding the chair to adjust his posture just now is very eye-catching. The aura of a leader is amazing!”
< br>Lin Nan said without hesitation of praise, Chen Baoguo smiled and waved his hand. But the applause outside the door also said something, it was really great!
Turn on the phone again after more than half an hour, that is, Zhang Hanyu left the country for the first time;
In the car, the department manager just informed him that he had been successfully appointed as the leader of the action team, and the scene where the two chatted like old friends was completed in only twenty minutes.
This shot not only took one shot to the end, but also took it to the end multiple times, saving several shots.
At this point, the nearly two hours of shooting in the morning have come to a successful end.
Everyone’s lunch is still served in the ministry cafeteria; and today everyone in the crew is treated like a small cook, I heard that the leader specifically told me!
“Let’s just shoot one scene in the afternoon. Teacher Zhang Hanyu analyzes the crime scene to all the leaders in the conference room, including the speed of the Mekong River, the angle of the bullet mark, the trajectory, the shooting direction, and the execution-style 45-degree shooting. Reverse the story of the incident
Start the phone early in the afternoon and try to finish before 2:30, so everyone can go back and rest. The scenes in the capital can be filmed slowly like this, but after the 9th, the filming will have to be repeated several times. "
Sitting at the table in the cafeteria, Lin Nan was chatting and laughing with everyone; finishing early and going home early, everyone basically supported it, except Ning Hao.
"I said Director Ning, How much private money are you planning to hide this time? ”
While picking at Lin Nan’s bowl, Liu Yifei teased Ning Hao; the latter suddenly became uncomfortably calm. The others couldn’t help but laugh when they heard this, but no one interrupted.
“Producer Liu, how can you accuse someone of innocence out of thin air? "Ning Hao replied angrily and refused to admit it.
"Remuneration, friendly price? I am the producer, and all the accounts of the crew must be settled through me. If you feel bad one day, just go and sit with that sister..."
Jue kill!
"Yifei, please show your respect, everything is easy to discuss."
There is really no need to learn the art of face-changing, everyone can learn it by himself, just like Director Ning at the moment.
"You'd better be careful. The sister called and asked again yesterday. She obviously doesn't trust you and even doubts Yifei."
They are good buddies after all, Lin Nan couldn't help but laugh and reminded him again.
"This...hey, I will pay attention to it, it's so hard!"
At 1:30 in the afternoon, the crew started shooting in advance, everyone was eager to take a half-day holiday, and everyone was in excellent condition , the shooting was completed in just fifty minutes.
After deciding to start filming the scenes of road closure and meeting with representatives from the three countries in the Golden Triangle starting tomorrow, everyone on the crew officially called it a day and got off work.
……
I have to say that Huang Xiaoming's wedding was really treated as a "grand ceremony", and it felt like a wedding for the entertainment industry.
No, in the afternoon, they took the initiative to expose some details of the wedding to the media:
6 carat crown wedding ring, a treasure provided by the top French jewelry brand museum ——Antique crown, a pair of high-end luxury jewelry of the same brand...
At this moment, everyone in the circle knows almost everything:
That is, Huang Jiaozhu and Yang Ying The wedding comes with huge commercial attributes, advertising, endorsements, sponsorships... you can definitely make a lot of money, and you need connections, money, pomp, everything!
The general situation of the invited guests has also spread, coming from the mainland, Hong Kong Island, Taiwan Province, South Korea, island countries, Southeast Asia and other regions, covering the film and television industry, entertainment industry, sports industry, folk art industry, media industry...
In terms of scale alone, it is indeed far superior to Lin Nan and Liu Yifei's wedding. The only difference lies in the "quality" of the guests. This is also the most obvious point.
Liu Yifei had a headache. She originally thought that she could relax when she came back in the afternoon and let Shu Chang accompany her to go shopping;
But Lin Nan interrupted the gift for Huang Xiaoming before he had decided on it. her plan.
"There are still four days left. I really can't think of anything to give. I thought you were all prepared?!" Liu Yifei curled her lips and complained to Lin Nan.
"Isn't this what the hostess of the family is preparing for, what do you think, Sissy?"
Very good, Director Lin was so flattering, and Producer Liu immediately showed a arrogant smile, but she Still raising his chin slightly, he said harshly: "Humph, I won't accept your trick!"
"If you really can't think of anything new, then just accept the offer and give money?"
>"But what he gave us was a gift and a pair of mutton-fat jade." Liu Yifei felt a little too careless if he only gave us a gift.
“Okay, there is a high probability that he will be given movie roles in the future.”
Lin Nan smiled nonchalantly. To put it bluntly, his favor was the best courtesy.
"That's fine, I'll just listen to you." Liu Yifei thought for a moment, then nodded.
…………
The next morning, the Film Bureau.
Zhang Hongsen looked at his secretary and asked again for confirmation: "You mean that both movies have submitted applications to extend their release period?"
"Yes, Director Zhang, the extension key applications for the two movies were sent yesterday. You also know that the movies that can take the initiative to apply for the extension key have either been informed by the superior department or have very good box office results. .
At this time, only "Hong Kong" and "Charlotte" meet the conditions, and they are the kind that do their part!" The secretary answered bluntly, without exaggerating the two movies. actual box office results.
But Zhang Hongsen’s expression seemed a little solemn.
"Put this matter on hold for now, so that the people in the departments below will not have to worry about it. I will handle it personally and will give you advice on how to deal with it later."
The secretary was a little surprised, but did not dare to ask more, "Okay, Director Zhang."
Seeing the secretary leave the office door, Zhang Hongsen thought about it and stood up:
< br>"Although these two movies are understandable and meet all the prerequisites for obtaining the extension key, but... let's go and talk to the Tong Bureau."
Immediately, Zhang Hongsen also walked out of the office door. , walked all the way towards Tong Gang's office at the General Administration.
……
At this moment, in the corridor of the Ministry of Public Security building.
In the camera, Chen Baoguo is leading the way, and half a step behind is the actor who plays the deputy director;
The two are talking while walking, the former asks, and the latter takes the initiative Answer and report.
The two middle-aged people following behind them were all in uniforms and had high-ranking police officers. They were all "out of the country" in their true colors, but they were only shot for a few seconds.
But I have to say that after Chen Baoguo, the "fake minister", fully displayed his aura, he really suppressed the "real leader" who played his true self, at least in the camera!
After a few minutes, Lin Nan felt that it was almost done, so he shouted: "Ka! Get ready for the transition. Director Zhang?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Director Zhang from Jindun and the department's logistics manager hurried over.
"Director Lin, the road over there has just been officially closed. You must finish filming this scene before two o'clock in the afternoon!"
"Red Flag Extended Bulletproof Model The convoy of state guests, the escort convoy, and the traffic police convoy responsible for clearing the way... are all ready;
In addition, the inside of the venue is also in place, and they are all colleagues from our public security system and seconded official media reporters, guest appearances Character. Director Lin Nan, the scene can be changed now.”
The two of them were talking about what Lin Nan wanted.
Contrary to Liu Yifei's expectations, Ning Hao beside him was already a little excited and impatient;
Because he was the main photographer, he shot the scene of the road closure, and even asked him to It’s only a second or two after exiting Tiananmen Square!
"Okay, finish the shooting before two o'clock in the afternoon, I have no problem! Everyone, change the scene immediately."
Lin Nan waved his hand and said, hurry up!
……
11:30 am.
A "luxury" formation consisting of four Hongqi extended bulletproof state cars, eight escort convoys, and 24 traffic police cavalry appeared on the roads of the capital.
There were no other driving vehicles on the blocked road section, but there were many stationary waiting vehicles and a large number of "duty personnel" at one end in the same direction.
The luxurious formation with the state guest fleet as the core is driving slowly;
Ning Hao was standing on the front car, with his upper body passing through the sunroof, controlling the camera, and shooting the main shot of the entire motorcade behind him;
At the same time, several other cameras were shooting from behind. Follow-up shots from different angles, even in the car;
When it comes to post-editing, all the shots taken must be reviewed by Lin Nan, selected, deleted, and put into the final film!
On both sides of the wide road, a large number of passers-by and media reporters were holding mobile phones and cameras, excitedly taking photos and videos.
For the former, the most they can do is post on WeChat Moments and Weibo; but for media reporters, this is performance, the tidbits and materials of "Operation Mekong"!
You must know that in the early stages of filming of Lin Nan's movies, such "good stuff" rarely leaks out!
A quarter after one o'clock in the afternoon, when a whole fleet of vehicles turned into the Ministry of Public Security, Lin Nan took the walkie-talkie and shouted: "Ka!"
This paragraph is in the entire movie It can be regarded as one of the most spectacular scenes, even if it is completely finished.
After a hurried lunch, the crew went to the Grand Conference Hall of the Ministry of Public Security and the East Hall of the Great Hall of the People;
After filming the public security system conference, the meeting of representatives of the four countries and the release of the joint statement, Hundreds of police officers and reporters participated in supporting roles, and the scene was shocking.
At the same time, Lin Nan, the director, and Ning Hao, the chief photographer, were also exhausted!
For the next 5th and 6th, the crew only needs to check and fill in the scattered scenes in the capital and finish filming!
......
Time came to the 7th in a blink of an eye. Lin Nan and Liu Yifei had a rare sleep, well, they got up at 11 o'clock in the morning.
Outside, the news of "Operation Mekong" is still on the hot search, and is hotly discussed together with other movie information and entertainment information.
"Co-produced by Zhenledao, Guangguang, and Lin Nan Pictures, directed by Xu Zhengzheng, starring Xu Zheng, Bao Beier, Du Juan, Zhao Yanzi and others;
The third part of the "囧" series "囧" After 12 days of release, the total box office revenue is 1.6 billion; the daily box office is more than 30 million, and there is still a lot of hope to break the 2 billion box office mark! "
"Co-produced by Happy Mahua and Lin Nan Films, Directed by Yan Fei and Peng Damo, starring Shen Teng, Ma Li, Wang Zhi, Yin Zheng, Tian Yu and others, the comedy movie "Charlotte Troubles" has received a great reputation and strong box office since its release;
The film The total box office in the seven days of release was 911 million, and the daily box office exceeded 100 million. Director Lin Nan’s 1.5 billion+ box office prediction is destined to be realized... and even sprint to 2 billion..."
"By Liu Dehua and Liu Ye Starring others, the action drama "Rescue Mr. My" has been in theaters for 7 days. The film schedule continues to be cut down, and there is a serious lack of living space; the total box office is 60.14 million, and the daily income is less than 100,000. I may leave with regrets..."
< br>
"Disney's imported animated film "Inside Out" grossed 18.88 million on its first day of release, far from box office expectations..."
"The movie "Operation Mekong" was shot on a closed road, and the number of views officially exceeded one million ! The popularity and discussion volume of related topics continue to soar and skyrocket..."
Lin Nan was sitting on the swing, holding the little black cat in his arms, looking through the news posts on Weibo.
The combined total of "囧" and "Charlotte Trouble" is 2.5 billion!
Many media are reporting that starting from July, the film market will be the film market of Lin Nan Pictures.
Because so far, including the two movies that are still in theaters, the total box office of these five movies has exceeded 5 billion!
Not to mention, this number sounds quite scary;
But in fact, of the 5 billion box office, Lin Nan Pictures may not be able to get more than 1.5 billion in the end? Hmm... maybe not 2 billion yet!
As for how much Lin Nan Pictures can get after "囧" and "Charlotte Trouble" are released and the accounts are finally divided, we have to wait a little longer.
“Tsk, it feels like a lot?! No, no, no, movies, with such high costs, and several companies and so many people to support, it really doesn’t make any money, well, it doesn’t make any money!”
Lin Nan thought to himself, constantly brainwashing himself!
“Let’s wait until “Mermaid” is released during the Spring Festival and then count the harvest of this year. Awards, career, family, it’s really a bumper harvest. Haha...”
“ Lin Nan, what are you giggling over there?"
Liu Yifei pulled Director Lin's thoughts back from the sky.
“I remember how silly and naive you used to be.” Lin Nan looked at Miss Liu in the distance and joked.
"Hmph, I think you're looking for a beating. Give me back the stuff."
Liu Yifei, who was wearing slippers, walked very fast, ran to Lin Nan, sat down next to her, and pushed him to the side. He squeezed and snatched the cat from his arms.
"Have the tickets been booked at Hongxingwu?"
Lin Nan leaned against Miss Liu beside him, smelled the fragrance in her hair, and asked about business.
Wearing short-sleeves and hot pants, Liu Yifei’s exposed skin is so white, delicate and reflective that people can’t help but want to touch it.
"Well, the tickets have been booked. Let's set off with Changchang tomorrow morning and arrive in the morning. Huang Xiaoming's company has booked a hotel, so we can just check in directly and we can still have fun for half a day."
Liu Yifei I also took advantage of the situation and snuggled up with Lin Nan, planning tomorrow's trip.
Lin Nan nodded, Liu Yifei was right, he could play for a long time.
Because although Huang Xiaoming and Yang Ying's wedding was a Western-style wedding, the ceremony took place in the evening, including the wedding banquet.
But this is understandable. After all, the atmosphere of the banquet at night is definitely stronger, more lively, and more suitable for socializing than during the day.
And large-scale banquets in the entertainment industry are basically held at night!
……
Film Bureau.
Who would have thought that the application for extension keys for two movies would cause two leaders to struggle for several days? !
“Tong Bureau, is this how you approve it?”
"Let's do it this way. Logically speaking, only these two movies have applied for extension, so they shouldn't be stuck for so long, but... we'd better give them the results as soon as possible."
"Okay."
......
In the evening, Shu Chang drove over in her sports car.
After she saw Lin Nan, the first thing she said with a smile was: "Brother, borrow Sissi for one night and sleep with me!"
Yes, she acted like a female gangster, completely led astray by Han Jianu.
Faced with this request, Lin Nan agreed with a disgusted expression, because Liu Yifei had already agreed.
While having dinner, very suddenly, Wang Wei called.
“What’s the matter?”
Lin Nan had a hunch that it must be a big deal, otherwise Wang Wei would not call him at this time. He had never called himself at this time before. Over the phone.
Sure enough, Wang Wei's slightly excited voice came from the phone:
"Director Lin, I just got the accurate news that something happened at Youku."
"Huh? Could it be?”
“Director Lin, the situation has been decided, Gu is kicked out! Now it depends on when Ali will make an official announcement.”
