Chapter 916 Arthur? Ali flipped the table again!
Chen Hong led her son and walked over with a smile.
"Director Lin, Director Jiang."
"Sister Chen, you came to school today...are you preparing for the art exam?"
Lin Nan indicated with his eyes She looked at "Xiao Chen" beside her and asked with a smile.
"No, there is no plan to let him take the art exam yet; we just want him to come to school to sit in for half a year, learn something first, and then join the group so that he doesn't understand everything."
After speaking, Chen Hong urged her son, "Hurry up and call someone, this kid."
"Hello, Director Lin, Teacher Jiang." "Xiao Chen" beside him quickly bowed slightly, very obedient.
“Oh, by the way, I forgot to introduce it to Director Lin. This is my youngest son, his name is Feiyu;
You can also call him Arthur. This is after sending him to study abroad. At that time, our director Chen gave it an English name himself.”
"Arthur? Arthur!"
Lin Nan smiled and nodded. He glanced at Chen Feiyu, who kept smiling and was very respectful next to Chen Hong, and then recalled to Chen Hong:
"I have the impression that I saw him at the premiere of "The Promise". He was still a child of five or six years old at that time... It has been 10 years."
"Lin The director has a good memory. I had my eldest son at the time, but he was no longer in the film and television industry; we planned to let Fei Yu become an actor, and he also had the intention..."
Looking at Chen Hong's "gushing" "Incessant" and enthusiastic, Lin Nan exchanged glances with Lao Jiang in a vague way. Both of them knew: the topic is coming!
"Please also ask Director Lin to take care of our Feiyu in the future...We are not outsiders..."
"Director Chen's resources may not be used up, so how can we use others to take care of us? Haha... "
Lin Nan interrupted with a smile. It is impossible to refuse this kind of favor in person.
“It’s still necessary. Our Director Chen is no better than Director Lin... He’s also getting older... Lin Nan Pictures is the top production company in the industry...”
Okay Guys, Lin Nan and Lao Jiang were stunned!
This is really Chen Hong's biological son. For the sake of his son, he actually said a few "bad words" about Director Chen Da?
If Director Chen knew about this... well, Chen Kaige wouldn't be angry. After all, this is Chen Hong, his "favorite" who has publicly confessed countless times over the years!
After another ten minutes of greetings, Lin Nan deliberately raised his wrist and looked at his watch.
Lao Jiang understood and immediately took the initiative to help end the topic:
"Producer Chen, I'm afraid you have to talk to Lin Nan at another time. He has to go to teach the students. Time is up. Arrived.”
"Ah? That really delayed Director Lin's time. I also saw you from a distance, so I couldn't help but bring Feiyu over to say hello.
I won't bother you now. Director Lin, you are busy, so we have to We're going to the acting academy, let's talk later..."
While laughing, the four of them separated.
But before walking too far, Lao Jiang began to lament and complain: "Where have I seen such an approachable Chen Hong before?
Although she is not as pretentious as Director Chen, she is He is also aloof and self-assertive! I have experienced Director Zhan Lin's glory once.
But I can also see that others are here for you, the great director, and they didn’t look at me during the whole process... Of course, I’m just a little guy. ”
“It’s good to be self-aware! "
Lin Nan immediately made up for it with a smile. Without waiting for Lao Jiang to curse, he added: "But you are right. This is the first time I have seen Chen Hong in this state.
But it is understandable, after all, he has to pave the way for his son; Director Chen cares too much about status and face, and always puts on airs, so this kind of thing can only be done by Chen Hong. "
"Well, that's the truth. Hey, don’t mention it. Director Chen’s name is quite impressive. Arthur, Arthur, he went for ‘King Arthur’! ”
Lao Jiang belatedly exclaimed, and then he became playful again:
"Lin Nan, to be honest, that boy and you just now are the same generation, and his father and Director Tian are classmates!"
"Haha, Director Kaige doesn't even dare to say that his son and I are equals!" Lin Nan retorted angrily.
"Yes, that's right. With your achievements and status in the industry, you are just as senior as Wada's master and apprentice, and you are already the same generation as other great directors of the fifth generation!"
On the other side, go On the way to the acting academy, Chen Hong also "teached" his son.
"You are destined to be different from those ordinary actors. You will not lack the resources, connections, and background that they lack; the road has been paved for you, just go step by step.
But there are very few in the industry You still have to pay attention to the important people and make friends and maintain them with your heart...Director Lin Nan just now is one of them, a very, very important kind..."
Chen Feiyu followed him and kept nodding and responding. Followed closely by Chen Hong.
Chen Hong saw it and was very satisfied. In her opinion, her son is better than other second-generation celebrities in the industry. He is obedient, humble, well-behaved, and polite...
This is due to Chen Kaige's way of educating him since childhood... Although he is very Strict, cruel, and domineering, but with her protecting him...it's okay.
...
In the afternoon, the hot search for online film and television entertainment information should have been as popular as yesterday's "The Secret of the Dragon".
But as it approached three o'clock, the news about Alibaba Pictures directly overturned all the film and television entertainment information on the hot search list, landing in the first place.
To be precise, Alibaba Pictures has once again flipped the table, flipping the table of the film and television industry.
At the Magic City International Film Festival last year, Zhang Qiang pointed out that in the creation of film and television works in the Internet era, Alibaba Pictures will not hire professional directors to direct movies;
And this afternoon, they held a large-scale industry forum event in the film and television industry on "Why is there such a rush for originality and IP to compete with each other?" In the face of many media and people in the film and television industry, Zhang Qiang, President of Alibaba Pictures, made another "bold statement":
"After a year and a half, big data applications have become mature. From now on, Alibaba Pictures will continue to After refusing to hire professional directors, we will no longer hire professional screenwriters to create scripts! For future movie scripts, we will ask relevant IP post bar owners and countless fan fiction authors to complete them;
That is, select dozens of the best people and let them write scripts and stories based on the novels, and they will be eliminated continuously like a killing game; the one who writes the best in the end will stay, be given a heavy reward, and retain the signature of the screenwriter... ...In the end, the most you can do is find a professional screenwriter to sort it out and layout it. It does not count as participating in script creation!
This is the development process of super IP, that is, starting from the audience's perspective, not the screenwriter's perspective... ”
With such a public statement, Alibaba Pictures directly blew up the screenwriter circle!
In less than two hours, the entire screenwriting community rose up to attack Alibaba Pictures; hundreds of well-known screenwriters attacked Alibaba Pictures online!
To be a professional screenwriter, your pen and mouth are like a knife and a gun! The great screenwriters are fighting on the front line:
“This is not writing, this is raising worms and fighting beasts!”
“Please reject Ali’s films just like you reject drugs. Industry..."
"Screenwriters don't just know more than others. The core skill of a screenwriter is to select and combine what they know into a good story with connotation.
We invite IP bar owners and fan fiction authors to enter the Colosseum to talk about themselves. Killing, this is using capital to enslave Internet writers;
After the killing, professionals are brought in to harvest the blood-bathed IP among the corpses. Professional screenwriters may not cooperate, and Internet writers will also rise up. We are not slaves Make..."
...
After class, Lin Nan sat in the car and turned on the phone. The moment she turned on the phone, she was completely confused.
Because the phone kept popping up, a lot of messages were pouring in:
SMS, social software, and Weibo... Dozens of top screenwriters Lin Nan knew were all publishing Aite. He, I hope he will speak out together, after all, Lin Nan is also a screenwriter!
“Tsk, tsk, tsk, last time the screenwriting community jointly boycotted Yu Zheng, there seemed to be only 156 screenwriters, but this time it doubled? It’s indeed Alibaba Pictures!”
Lin Nan Quite shocked, he discovered that the Screenwriters Guild was also publicly condemning Alibaba Pictures, which was very interesting.
But one phenomenon is also very obvious, that is, many of the filmmakers in the industry who are both screenwriters and have other professions have not spoken out; only those whose main job is screenwriters are fighting on the front line!
As for the reason, you don’t need to think about it. It’s just that you’re afraid of offending Ali. After all, the Alibaba department at the moment, even in capital, is a behemoth!
Many students came and went, all looking at the red Ferrari intentionally or unintentionally, Lin Nan was inside.
After hesitating for a few minutes, Lin Nan decided to post on Weibo.
After all, he is from the traditional film and television industry. Although he is a capital, he is also a director, screenwriter, and filmmaker:
“During the Magic City International Film Festival last year, I refuted Alibaba Pictures on the spot. "Internet production model", I still think it is a fallacy! Without a professional director or screenwriter, what can be produced?
Even Wall Street only dares to invest in Hollywood and is fooled around. However, Alibaba Pictures, which has an Internet background, wants to cross industries and subvert the professionalism of the film and television industry... Sometimes when I think about it, it really feels like a pyramid scheme... ..."
The addition of Lin Nan made the industry even more chaotic.
In less than ten minutes, calls came in one after another; but Director Lin was driving, so he refused to answer them all.
But the phone here can’t be reached, but the other side is not guaranteed.
……
Liu Yifei was helpless. This was already her third call. Shu Chang was watching the fun with a smile.
"Your director Lin is too direct. I just forwarded it to resist, but he actually did something original!"
Xing Aina's voice came from the phone, There was Ning Hao's laughter beside him.
"Yeah, but it's the truth, isn't it? I saw that many great directors who were screenwriters have expressed their opinions one after another, including Director Jia Zhangke, Director Xue Xiaolu, Director Cao Baoping..."
< br>Liu Yifei counted them one by one, and took a moment to bite the straw and take a sip of juice. What can she do? Of course I support Lin Nan!
On the other side, Alibaba Pictures.
“Every industry we enter, the final result is successful; for the film and television industry, there is naturally no second result.
This year is the second time Alibaba Pictures was established Years, take your time, the traditional film and television industry will be changed and led by us sooner or later.
Isn't it that the "traffic star" aspect has already achieved results? It will also be a major trend in the future. This is the first change we have brought to the film and television industry!"
In the conference room, Zhang Qiang made an impassioned speech.
He has no regard for those people in the traditional film and television industry who are jumping around online, including Lin Nan, Jia Zhangke and other big directors and traditional film and television capital.
"By the way, how is "The Ferryman" going?"
"Mr. Zhang, Director Wang Jiawei is taking a break. Director Zhang Jiajia completely listens to Director Wang...you can stop the production. During this period, the cost is constantly increasing!”
Hearing this, Zhang Qiang couldn’t help but frowned.
“Let me remind you, I have only heard about Wang Jiawei’s Moji before, but this is the first time I have seen it...it is indeed Moji! Although we are very fond of the ‘big data + big IP + big director’ model We are confident, but unnecessary cost increases should be avoided as much as possible!”
After finishing speaking, Zhang Qiang looked at his subordinates again, "Wang Jiawei didn't say how long it will take to finalize the plan?"
"I'm afraid... I'm afraid it won't be until next year. The specific time, Director Wang said, can't be estimated. It depends on the situation.”
Hearing this, Zhang Qiang was shocked.
The film will be launched in early July, but it won’t be until next year. I can’t estimate when it will be finalized? Are you really filming "The Grandmaster 2"? ! Wouldn’t that cost...
