Chapter 1016 Jackie Chan opens his eyes for the artist surnamed Wu; Academy Reform
After Lin Nan came back from playing outside all day, he took a shower, changed his clothes, and then went out alone. .
Liu Yifei was too lazy to follow him to support him. She wanted to sort out the photos and videos taken during the day with Shu Chang and Han Jianyu.
Yes, Director Lin finally acted as the photographer for a group of people in the afternoon!
At seven o'clock in the evening, the closing ceremony of the second "Jackie Chan Action Movie Week" was held grandly on the Binjiang River in the magical city of Xuhui.
Shanghai Film Academy is half the organizer, so Ren Zhonglun is tonight’s host.
Most of the big-name guests tonight were invited by him, including Lin Nan. And the other small part is Jackie Chan's face.
“There are games in the morning, games in the afternoon, and activities in the evening. Sure enough, even though I am a capital investor now, I still can’t compare with you. You can just ignore those social activities and spend time with your wife. Let’s go out for a day!”
Ning Hao yawned and quickly caught up with Lin Nan at the end of the red carpet.
"That means your capital is still too small. Learn from Lu Bu, a man was born between heaven and earth, how can he live in depression for a long time! Kill Dong Ping and Xu Zheng, you will be the only one who is happy became a big boss and successfully joined the ranks of the big capital in the industry..."
"You're talking nonsense again." Ning Hao replied angrily.
Lin Nan was just joking, Ning Hao has never been a qualified capital party; he can neither be completely evil nor have the strength to become a big capital on his own; the way he is now, in fact, fine.
"What are you two whispering about?"
Wang Changtian waved at Lin Nan and the two of them, immediately attracting everyone's attention. Lin Nan glanced around and saw that there were quite a few people who were not going to be dealt with tonight.
"I didn't mutter anything. Director Ning said that he had a quarrel with his big screenwriter, so he was kicked out."
"Fuck you, uncle, you were kicked out." Faced with Lin Nan's joke, Ning Hao immediately retorted.
The seats on site are clearly differentiated.
Lin Nan, Wang Changtian and others are far away from Hua Yi. After all, during the Lunar New Year last year, Guangguang and Hua Yi had a heated exchange of words online, and Director Lin helped. .
“We don’t need so many media reporters, right? There are fifty or sixty of them?”
Ning Hao was the first to notice the anomaly. There were indeed too many media reporters tonight. , "Jackie Chan Action Movie Week" is far from being able to use this kind of specifications? !
"I heard it was Jackie Chan Pictures' intention to invite twice as many media outlets." Wang Changtian explained in a low voice.
A few people chatted for more than half an hour, until almost eight o'clock, the event officially started.
Jackie Chan, wearing a Tang suit and black-rimmed glasses, walked onto the stage amidst applause; but he did not make the opening remarks of "Jackie Chan Action Movie Week", but...
" I would like to welcome and thank all guests and friends from the industry for taking time out of their busy schedules to attend the second Jackie Chan Action Movie Week.
Before the official closing ceremony and award ceremony, I would like to take this opportunity to... I would like to solemnly announce something to all the media and industry colleagues present tonight..."
"What?" Lin Nan was a little confused.
"Well, look over at Hua Yi."
Ning Hao whispered, and several people looked over instantly.
I saw Jackie Chan stretching out a hand and making a "stand up" gesture toward the other side, and the artist surnamed Wu next to Wang Zhongjun, Wang Zhonglei and Feng Xiaogang just stood up; First public appearance after "negative news"!
Dozens of media outlets instantly became agitated, as if they had been given a shot of blood. There is a big movement tonight!
At the same time, Lin Nan also narrowed his eyes. He and Wang Changtian beside him both remembered what happened at the "Mermaid" celebration dinner:
Ren Zhonglun, who was at the same table at that time, revealed something, that is, Jackie Chan Pictures has signed Wu Yifan and will announce it during the Shanghai International Film Festival!
“Yes, it is true that Xiao Wu has signed a contract with a certain film and television giant that has been posted on the Internet these days.
Here today, with the help of the Magic City International Film Festival Opportunity, I officially announced:
He, the popular idol Wu Yifan's film and television agency contract was signed by Jackie Chan Pictures, a company I hold shares. Come on, take advantage of tonight's movie week. Hello friends from the media..."
In full view of everyone, Feng Xiaogang led the person up with a smile and took the microphone immediately.
“When I first heard that my eldest brother’s Jackie Chan Pictures had signed Fanfan, I subconsciously said something in my heart: This is a great thing.
< br>I hope that my eldest brother can make Fanfan a capable actor and an international superstar like you. I treat him as my own son, and our entire Huayi family is his natal family..."
Lin Nan and Wang Changtian were a little nauseated, but Feng Xiaogang took Wu Yifan's hand and handed him over to Jackie Chan.
"I feel a little sick, I'll withdraw first..."
Before Lin Nan could finish speaking in a low voice, a reporter from the media was heard "violently" interrupting the "bridal send off" scene on the stage.
"Brother Jackie Chan, Wu Yifan has been involved in a controversy of public opinion recently. Why did Jackie Chan Pictures sign him at this time? Didn't they consider the public response?"
Good question!
At this moment, Lin Nan’s raised butt fell down again. Not only him, but Ning Hao, Wang Changtian and others also wanted to hear an explanation. Sure enough, the artist surnamed Wu above was trying his best to remain calm and silent, but his face was extremely ugly; while Feng Xiaogang showed an unhappy expression and scolded:
"Have your media collected evidence and are just adding fuel and jealousy here?
How many young and promising artists in the industry have had a bright future, but their futures have been ruined by unscrupulous media. Even if they are clarified in the end, It doesn't help..."
"Why does it smell so bad when these words come out of his mouth? Are there many incidents of Hua Yi manipulating public opinion and harming actors and artists? "Even Ning Hao? I can't listen anymore.
“Listen, I’ll leave after I finish listening.” Lin Nan crossed his legs and said nonchalantly.
“Director Feng, you have to change your temper.”
Jackie Chan interrupted Feng Xiaogang with a smile, then looked in the direction of the media and said very kindly:
"Everyone has negative news, actors and artists have it, and I have it too. Doesn't the media keep accumulating it over the years?" Are you reporting it? It’s true. I admit it. I never admit it’s made up.
Of course, those news are in the past, but I have learned from experience that the more popular you are, the more low-key you must be. "
At this point, Jackie Chan turned around and put his hand on Wu Yifan's shoulder, preaching:
"Be low-key and speak less. In the era of self-media, we don't have the energy to target all kinds of things. False news must be refuted one by one or debated and evidenced; however, freedom of speech and speculation also need to abide by the bottom line of the law. When necessary, we must learn to attack decisively and fight back..."
"It's withdrawn. I'm here to support the award ceremony to give Shanghai Film Group a good reputation. I'm not here to attend some 'signing ceremony' or 'negative news media meeting.'"
Throwing a word in a low voice, Lin Nan stood up straight away and walked quickly towards the side door of the venue. Many big shots and even officials at the scene thought he had gone to the bathroom.
"Well, Mr. Wang, I will withdraw too." Ning Hao followed closely and chased after him.
"I..."
Looking around, Wang Changtian curled his lips and left silently under Ren Zhonglun's gaze.
Half an hour later, the people from Shanghai Film Academy came to Ren Zhonglun and whispered:
"Director Ren, Director Lin, Director Wang and Director Ning were not outside at all. The security personnel said that they were there half an hour ago. Just take the car and leave.”
“Okay, I understand!”
Ren Zhonglun looked serious and cold, and responded in a low tone.
He looked at Jackie Chan on the stage who was presenting the award with a smile on his face, frowned slightly, and shook his head cryptically again, "Who are the people signing this."
...
When they returned to the hotel, Liu Yifei and the others were still playing with the videos and photos from the day, and were quite surprised that Lin Nan came back so early.
Lin Nan didn't explain much. He just said it was boring, changed his clothes and went to the open-air bar on the 16th floor of the hotel, so as not to disturb the rest of their work.
But Tom was a bit stuck and called over.
"Lin, the launch date of "Fifty Shades Freed" has been set, at the beginning of next month. We plan to land in the North American market early next year and then release it in Europe..."
"Well, this time is no problem." Lin Nan waved to the waiter and asked for a glass of soda.
"By the way, there is one more thing. There seems to be a meeting at the academy recently, and the Oscars are going to reform."
"Well, what do you mean? What reform?" Lin Nan I really didn't react for a while.
“I heard from James that it seems that the qualifications for Academy members, that is, Oscar judges, are going to change!”
“Tell me more.” Lin Nan waved again and asked for a pastries.
"Previous Oscar judges were tenured for life, just like you. But after the reform, the newly added Academy members only have a 10-year term. Well, this is all I know for now, and a formal document should be issued in the second half of the year at the earliest. "
"Newly added?" Lin Nan muttered.
“Yes, it is only for new members. The qualifications of past Oscar judges will not be affected and they will still be tenured for life. Many people have analyzed that after the reform, the number of Oscar Academy members may increase many times each year.
Especially for China, because of the development speed and prosperity of the Chinese film market, Hollywood may invite many Chinese filmmakers to join the Oscar Academy every year. This is also a purpose of the reform. Although the new members only have a 10-year term, they can use their membership of the academy to greatly shorten their relationship with filmmakers and film markets in various regions..."
Lin Nan finally understood, Oscar and his gang are really thieves. This is a completely benign reform for Oscar, with no harm at all.
Because newcomers who have qualified as Oscar judges must be leaders in the film circles of their respective countries; these people will definitely pursue and support the authority of the Oscars, and their influence will continue to expand invisibly!
