Chapter 892 Financing Dinner; "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" is ready
In the morning, the crew of "Operation Mekong" only shot one set of scenes, that is, the scene where the building where the law enforcement department of the four-nation joint operation is located is attacked by a suicide bomb.
This attack was planned and commanded by the big drug lord Nuoka, just to avenge the "Mekong River Case·Chinese Special Operations Team" for arresting his son and killing his right-hand man!
The murderers who carried out the suicide bombing mission were the "Boy Scouts" death squads "tamed" by the drug cartel with drugs;
This type of character design is also based on the reality of the former Golden Triangle. Condition, without a trace of adulteration or exaggeration.
The characteristics of these "boy scouts" are also very unified:
They have been controlled and tamed by drugs since they were young. They have violent personalities, shoot decisively, murder ruthlessly, and are not afraid of death; There is no humanity at all, all kindness is gone, and all they know is drugs and their "father" - the drug lord!
Training children to act is not an easy task, and acting with children is even more difficult;
Lin Nan and the other actors were busy from about seven o'clock in the morning to 10 o'clock in the morning. It took the crew nearly three hours to successfully complete the filming of this scene.
As for the special effects accompanying the explosion moment in the finished film, the Tiangong Color Team will make it as realistic as possible and provide moderate visual "rendering".
"This is the end of our morning shooting. Everyone can go back to the hotel to rest and continue in the afternoon."
Lin Nan shouted with a dry mouth while wearing a sun hat. The assistant quickly handed over the mineral water.
"You are really good at it. Your phone was in Do Not Disturb mode all afternoon yesterday, and you won't turn it on today!" Ning Hao ran over, waving his folding fan.
“Nearly a hundred missed calls in one afternoon made me so scared that I might as well just turn off my phone.”
Lin Nan complained and turned on his phone. Oh my god, another call came in instantly.
"An unfamiliar number in the capital? No need to guess, it's definitely not a wrong number, it's definitely for you! Haha..."
Lin Nan switched from vibrate mode to silent without even thinking about it. , and after the busy signal is automatically hung up, it immediately switches to the Do Not Disturb mode.
"I was harassed like this on the set. Just think of Director Wang who is in the capital... Tsk, tsk, tsk, you can't live in peace!" As they walked and talked, Lin Nan felt a little sympathetic to Wang Changtian.
“It’s so hypocritical. Although you are right, there is a high probability that Chairman Wang also enjoys this ‘pain’.”
Ning Hao hit the nail on the head, his tone full of disdain. Potatoes are not comparable to joy. The two are not of the same magnitude at all.
At this moment, the capital.
Yue Jun saw off the seventh "visitor" this morning and the second "visitor" in the financial industry - ICBC executives.
Without exception, these people all traveled in vain!
"According to the procedure, they should all go to Tudou. What's the point of coming to our company? Are they really taking shortcuts?!"
Jiang Yuerou ended her annual leave early and joked from the side.
“Yes, business, especially in this kind of investment circle, isn’t it all about relationships, connections, and shortcuts? The cake doesn’t go to the outside, it’s all eaten by the inner circle.
Tudou is pretty good, and there is no other capital involved. Otherwise, how can there be any public financing reception? It will definitely be reserved for several rounds until the prospectus is announced during the IPO!”
Yue Jun was very open-minded and laughed. He explained, and then asked Jiang Yanrou:
"The screenwriting department's "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" should be coming soon, right? Director Jiang has worked hard this time."
"Well, it's only been four or five days. It's not hard work, you have to be worthy of your annual salary and dividends, right? Haha..."
When it came to getting down to business, Jiang Yuerou immediately became serious.
She was responsible for leading the people from Hongxingwu to do the TV series "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom", which was arranged by Lin Nan before.
No one in the company has any objections to this. After all, the landlady and the boss are the same, and their work is not in vain!
……
China Film, La Peikang was receiving Zhou Xingchi and Ren Zhonglun, but the atmosphere at the scene was not very "harmonious".
The reason is that China Film wanted to win the exclusive distribution rights of "Mermaid", but Shanghai Film and Xinghui disagreed.
In Ren Zhonglun’s view, distribution is inherently a very profitable business. The higher the box office of a movie, the higher the distribution fee will be after commission. Of course, SIPG will get a share of the pie!
For Zhou Xingchi, he hopes that the more distributors, the better;
Because only in this way can the film distribution be maximized, the film schedule and screenings can be full, and the box office can also be Reach the highest.
The issuance fees will not increase as a result, but all issuers will allocate the money again according to a certain proportion!
“Now everyone has an equal share, but China Film is the project leader!” La Peikang is still insistent.
For the project "Mermaid", China Film Group Corporation holds 25% and Shanghai Film Group Corporation holds 15%. Xinghui previously sold two-thirds of its 30% share to many small producers, leaving only 10%.
So now it’s 25%: 25%. Those small producers are not the first investors and have no say!
“Don’t use your status as China Film Group to make excuses. Just ask Lin Nan for his opinion. He has 30% of the share. What a simple thing!”
Ren Zhonglun said with a smile that in the days without Han Sanping, China Film was much easier to deal with than before!
"Can you get through his phone number?" La Peikang asked angrily.
Hearing this, Ren Zhonglun reacted instantly: "China Film is also making up its mind?"
Zhou Xingchi sat on the edge, a little confused for a moment, and couldn't understand what the two of them were talking about. .
“He doesn’t want to be disturbed by phone calls, but he will always read text messages or messages, right? It’s not like he’s talking about potatoes.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Ren Zhonglun was already sending a message. At this time, Zhou Xingchi realized it later.
On the other side, Lin Nan was making a video call with Liu Yifei, showing off the roasted whole lamb in front of him.
But the next second, he saw the text message pop-up window at the top of the phone screen, it was from Ren Zhonglun.
"Did you hear that? I said, Changchang and I will try it this afternoon. It will definitely taste better than yours. It looks really ugly..."
"I heard it. , you guys have a good time, remember to take pictures for me.”
"Yeah, okay. I won't disturb you guys for eating. Bye~~"
Sensing that Lin Nan had something to deal with, Liu Yifei decisively chose to hang up the phone, not forgetting to give her a wink.
"State-owned enterprises...you guys eat first, I'll be back soon."
Lin Nan nodded to Ning Hao and others, then stood up and walked to a quiet place, dialing the phone in his hand Got out.
Wang Changtian is now waiting for the financing dinner on the evening of the 25th. After the 25th, the market value of Tudou will be determined with real money;
Of course, this is only the market value during the first round of financing. In most cases, with each round of financing, the market value will get higher and higher... But Tudou only has two rounds at most!
For those who want to get on the bus and take advantage, he has been hiding since noon yesterday;
Because the result has basically been predetermined, unless the quota and shares are increased again, but... still Forget it, no one wants to!
"Director Wang, Director Lin's phone number." the assistant reminded.
“Well, give it to me.”
Wang Changtian took his personal mobile phone and asked happily: "I'm calling from the crew. Is there something serious? Or is it a happy event?"
"Director Wang's hunch is quite accurate. Well? Remember to treat me and Yifei to a big dinner when I get back from the filming!"
Wang Changtian immediately brightened up when he heard Lin Nan's slightly teasing words.
“What a good thing?!”
“The distribution business of "Mermaid" can be messed up by light. I have offended China Film for this, but it doesn't matter. Director Wang will go find it. Let’s talk to Mr. Ren.”
"This, this is really a great thing! When you come back, I can treat you two to a month's worth of meals, haha..."
China Film, La Peikang looked at it with a cold face. Ren Zhonglun's mobile phone screen was dangling in front of him, and above it was the text message Lin Nan replied: "It would be better to have more publishers, including light..."
...
In the afternoon, Lin Nan He also changed into camouflage.
Because next is the several-day mountain forest combat scene, the real "Operation Mekong River" scene!
There are even many professionals - special police officers from the public security system participating in the performance. To them, this is just an exercise, and they still use blank ammunition.
The items in the prop department are also very "genuine" and are provided by Golden Shield Communication.
That is, police drones, reconnaissance robots, organized special military dogs that can deliver bombs...
"When facing those 'boy scouts', you need to perform hesitation After all, they are just a group of children under 15 years old, and the characters you play are Chinese police and soldiers;
But you can only hesitate for a moment, just like the line says, 'Try not to hurt them. ', just 'try your best', because this is a battlefield! ”
Lin Nan once again reminded that many people on the scene are not professional actors;
On the big screen, the real police are likely to be more police-like than the police played by actors, because some details of the performance, only Actors can do it.
In the eyes of most viewers, the actor who performs seriously is what a police or soldier should look like; the police and soldiers who actually appear on the scene are likely to be labeled as "this extra is really bad at acting" label! Reality is often like this.
"The actors are ready;
The photography is ready;
The props team is in place;
Aerial photography is in place;
..."
Responses came to Lin Nan, and he subconsciously glanced at the tongue sticking out. The German shepherd, this little guy actually looked at him with understanding? He is indeed the first choice for military dogs and police dogs. He is really smart!
"Every unit is ready, 3, 2, 1, action!" ”
Lin Nan's voice fell, and the crew immediately entered shooting mode;
In the monitor, a "special operations team" composed of Zhang Hanyu, Zhu Yawen, Li Bingbing and others, as well as armed police and special forces, sneaked in in an orderly manner.
The drug cartel's lair is in disarray:
The drug lord is still angry. Although his son escaped after the death squad blew up the building where the law enforcement department of the Four Nations Joint Operation is located, But so far, no one has been found and no one has returned... A group of boy scouts are also playing cards... Even though there are drug dealers armed with guns on guard, it seems full of loopholes.

Alibaba Pictures.
Since the online voting for the film version of "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" has ended and the heroine has been selected, Alibaba Pictures has finally finalized all the main actors and actresses after two months.
In other words, except for the perfect combination of Liu Yifei and Lin Nan, and Shu Chang, who came second in the actress vote, who was not picked by Alibaba Pictures, the rest of the actors did not refuse, and even It’s a dream come true, because no one can resist the temptation of “big IP + fan movie + famous director + high salary”!
"Then let's make an announcement and the boot information." "Okay, Mr. Zhang."
Zhang Qiang is personally eyeing this project, and it must be decided by him!
On the morning of the 21st, the industry’s attention was attracted by Alibaba Pictures.
"In the morning, the mythical love masterpiece "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom", exclusively produced by Alibaba Pictures and adapted from a popular IP, officially announced the full creative lineup:
Famous director Zhang Yibai will serve as the producer of this film, and will be co-directed by directors Zhao Xiaodeng and Anthony Lamorinara;
Actors Yang Mi, Yang Yang, Luo Jin, Yan Yikuan, Li Chun, Gu Xuan and others will star in the film..."
"It is reported that the movie "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" will officially start shooting at the end of next month. The shooting location will be built indoors by the Hollywood location team, and the entire special effects lens will be completed by a well-known Hollywood special effects company..."
Not allowed Not to mention, Ali's announcement once again made many actresses in the industry cast envious glances at Yang Mi;
Because there is no doubt that this is really the top cake in the film industry, and it can be seen that Ali is indeed It’s all done with care, and I’m very willing to invest!
Jiaxing, Yang Mi was happy but also a little disappointed. To be precise, it should be regretful.
"I have communicated with them many times, saying that our company's artists can star in low-paying roles, but their tone always feels very contemptuous..."
Listening to Yang Mi's description, Zeng Jia felt helpless. Alibaba Pictures was so arrogant that her little plan failed at all.
"Don't be discouraged, I am mentally prepared. Your heroine, this big cake is enough for us to digest for a while!"
"Yeah."
Yang Mi nodded silently, the days are long.
……
It was rare for Liu Yifei, Shu Chang, and Tang Yan to get together. After shopping, they found a coffee shop.
“I remember you said, haven’t you already selected the actors for your movie “The Young Lady” and are preparing to start shooting next month? Then why did Luo Jin accept the filming appointment there?”
Faced with Liu Yifei's curious inquiry, Tang Yan smiled sheepishly.
"Alibaba Pictures knew about this and allowed him to run on both sides; as for "Splendid Weibo", I am one of the producers, so there is no problem.
You don't know , Ali’s salary is really irresistible. Luo Jin told me that his salary is much higher than that of the male lead, and the same as Yang... and the female lead.”
After hearing what Tang Yan said, Liu Yifei understood that she could join in the drama.
“It’s indeed an Internet company, it’s really a big dog!” Shu Chang complained, pouting.
"What you said, after all, Tudou is also an Internet company. Are you slandering Director Lin? Aren't you afraid of being beaten by Producer Liu?"
Tang Yan glanced at Shu Chang, Digging a hole in front of her.
“How could you do this?”
"Don't worry, I beat her often!"
"Sissi, please, I'm your sibling..."
...
There are a lot of bugs in the mountains, Lin Nan was stung by a scorpion. Her left hand was painful, swollen, and a little numb.
“Some time ago, I was hit by a blank shell, and you laughed at me all day long. Should I take a photo of you and post it on WeChat today, you pig’s trotters?”
Ning Hao waved his cell phone in front of Lin Nan, and he was the only one in the crew who dared to make such a joke.
"Then I can finalize the deal for you in advance and let you go back to accompany that sister!"
Lin Nan stretched out his left hand and let the female doctor on the crew clean and ice his wounds. Applying medicine and applying medicine while replying to Director Ning.
Sure enough, the only one who can cure Ning Hao is Xing Aina! No, he fell silent all of a sudden.
“You really have no martial ethics!” Director Ning Da’s words directly made Zhang Hanyu, Li Bingbing and others laugh.
"I said, Director Lin, your hand won't affect the filming progress, right?" Zhu Yawen came over chewing gum.
"It doesn't affect it."
This scene lasts about half an hour in the finished film and involves the "Chinese special operations forces", the armed gang of the big drug lord Nuoka, and the people behind Nuoka. The big boss’s private armed forces;
It’s completely a one-on-two scene with the Chinese action troops, and there are a lot of sacrifice scenes. It’s not easy to shoot, it takes at least a week, so naturally Lin Nan can’t delay , otherwise it will really affect the progress.
"That's good. After we've finished shooting this large part of the scene, we're almost ready to wrap things up, right?"
Zhu Yawen asked. It could be seen that he probably missed her daughter.
Lin Nan nodded, "Well, it will be around the end of the month or the beginning of next month."
Other crews were slow to film, taking two or three months, basically because they took a while to film. After a while, there will be more actors involved in the scene, more troubles with the crew, and even the director himself has many problems; especially those crews that shoot for more than half a year, without exception, this is the case for all.
But here in Lin Nan, there will be no such nonsense; actors have to stay permanently after joining the crew, unless your scene is finished or you are willing to offend Lin Nan... so the progress must be fast.
"Director Lin, the helicopters and speedboats are ready."
At this time, the people from Golden Shield ran over again. These important props involve the final chase scene on the Mekong River.
“Okay, thank you.”
“You’re welcome, that’s what we do.”
After Lin Nan gave the medicine, the crew took a rest for an hour , and then everyone entered the shooting state and continued working!
The 21st ended in a hurry.
Early on the morning of the 22nd, the crew entered the mountains and forests again.
Over the whole day on the 23rd, "Operation Mekong" finished many supporting roles; among them was Chen Baoguo's son. Lin Nan was very proud of the "minister".
On the 24th, the filming of the scene in the mountains and forests was completed, and the Chinese special operations troops suffered heavy casualties...
"Gao Gang" played by Zhang Hanyu retreated to the Mekong River with the seriously injured Nuoka, and boarded the The speedboat escapes, and private armed forces are in hot pursuit...
The second male lead, played by Zhu Yawen, is covered in scars and also drives a speedboat on the Mekong River... in an attempt to support the captain...
As for Lin Nan? He was following in the sky in a helicopter.
And Ning Hao was on the speedboat, just the speedboat responsible for filming.
In addition, every speedboat in the shot is equipped with multiple hidden high-definition cameras to easily capture the actors’ expressions and action details.
At the same time, the rescue team responsible for responding to the accident has also been following the Mekong River, including boats from relevant departments!
At five o'clock in the afternoon, in the afterglow of the setting sun, Lin Nan shouted "Ka"!
.........
The final box office record of "囧 in Hong Kong" was reported online on the morning of the 25th, 1.771 billion!
The celebration banquet held by Guang Guang and Zhen Ledao for "囧" in the morning attracted even more attention from the industry.
It can even be predicted that among the guests present there will definitely be many capital tycoons, and even people from the financial industry and the Internet industry.
Because Wang Changtian, who has been missing for several days, will appear at the celebration banquet, and tonight is the time for Tudou’s financing reception and dinner!
"Co-produced by Happy Twist and Lin Nan Pictures, the comedy movie "Charlotte Trouble" was released for 25 days, with a total box office of 1.77 billion. The daily box office dropped by 3 million. It is a pity that it missed the 1.8 billion..."
"The film directed by Jia Zhangke, "Old Friends in Mountains and Rivers" held its premiere in Beijing this morning; the film stars Zhao Tao, Zhang Aijia, Zhang Yi, Dong Zijian and others."
Liu Yifei was originally going to attend "Mountains and Rivers" "Old Friend" premiere ceremony, but after much deliberation, he canceled the trip temporarily and asked Zhang Yi to help explain it to Jia Zhangke.
Because if she showed up now, she would definitely be surrounded like Wang Changtian at the "囧 in Hong Kong" celebration party on the other side. All because of Tudou’s financing dinner tonight!
"Sissi, if Lin Nan is not in the capital, you really won't go there either? Doesn't he, the major shareholder, need to have a representative present?"
Liu Xiaoli has also been harassed a lot in the past two days. She has been her daughter's assistant for a long time, so her contact information is naturally known to many people in the industry;
In the past five or six days, she has been Some people call in, and they are all looking for their daughter. Who told Lin Nan that there was "no word from" at all and he couldn't be contacted!
"Lin Nan said not to worry, they have already made arrangements before. If there is a particularly high-quality capital source, Director Wang and the others will pay attention to it and wait until he comes back to discuss whether to increase the quota..."
Liu Yifei raised her head and looked at her mother standing in front of the sofa, laughing. At this moment, her cell phone rang, and Liu Xiaoli picked it up and handed it to her daughter.
Liu Yifei looked at the caller ID and then answered the call: "Director Jiang?"
"Yifei, the TV series script of "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" has been completed. Do you want to come to the company today to have a look? Or ask a few people from Hongxingwu to come?"
Hearing this, Liu Yifei His eyes lit up instantly, "I'll come over in person. I'll be there in a moment. Sister Jiang asked someone to print out an extra copy for me, and I'll take it with me when the time comes."
"Okay, I'll let someone arrange it right now."
After hanging up the phone, Liu Yifei immediately stood up and prepared to change clothes. After she ran upstairs in a hurry, she remembered another thing:
"Mom, call Changchang for me. Let her go to Lin Nan Films now and we will meet there!”
"You girl, you don't know how to make phone calls."
Liu Xiaoli complained with a smile, and immediately picked up her biological daughter's cell phone to find her goddaughter's number and dialed it.
……
The celebration party for "囧 in Hong Kong".
Just as Wang Changtian expected, there was a huge crowd! Among so many people, only 60-70% came for the "囧囧" celebration party itself. The rest were all concerned about Tudou's financing.
"This is the celebration banquet for "囧 in Hong Kong". Don't discuss other issues. As for Tudou's financing, there will naturally be relevant agenda at the dinner tonight..."
Wang Changtian held the microphone. He said indifferently, but with a smile on his face.
He saw Wang Zhonglei, Yu Dong, and even Qin Hong, Zhang Zhao, Zhang Qiang... They all had good ideas, but unfortunately they were probably going to be disappointed at night!
"Director Wang, congratulations."
Xu disputed his wine glass and gave Wang Changtian a toast. He was referring to potatoes, and Huanxi had already gotten the invitation letter for tonight.
"Yes, congratulations."
Wang Changtian replied with a smile. What he said was just "囧 in Hong Kong"!
