Chapter 223 Defence, Film Industrialization

The incident in "Nanjing" seems to have not happened.

Lu Chuan kept a low profile and no longer showed up for publicity.

But several articles appear on the Internet from time to time, and "interpretation" of this movie is all about praise.

"The pain of truly restoring history."

"The good and evil of human nature..."

"The cruelty of war, let us cherish peace..."

"The starring show true feelings and interprets those dark and tragic years..."

There are many articles, all for the audience to read.

But there is no manuscript that mentions the position in the movie.

Very scary.

If it is a foreign director, this kind of idea of ​​forgetting and reconciliation can make sense.

But this is the case in China, which has made many industry insiders feel angry.

——

Lin Nan was sitting at home, and he could find troubles on his head.

The Hong Kong Island International Film Festival is being held in the past two days.

Feng Xiaogang and Hong Kong Circle are working hard openly.

The former scolds Hong Kong audience for discriminating against mainland movies.

No matter how big the production or how good the movie is, it is low-level in the eyes of Hong Kong people and is not as good as the movies on the Bay Island.

He is a big director with a comprehensive score of over one billion, but he is not as good as a director with a box office of over one hundred million in Bay Island.

It doesn’t matter if Feng Xiaogang is looking for trouble, but the Hong Kong circle has responded.

They accuse mainland directors of discrimination against and reject Hong Kong island actors. Even if they are used to play the leading role, they will always be just a few old people.

In the example given, Lin Nan and Ning Hao were ranked at the top, while Jia Zhangke, Wang Xiaoshuai, Lou Ye and other directors were all behind.

It’s very realistic to have a commercial film director before.

Feng Xiaogang got up and said bluntly that he deserved it, and he did it himself.

And he said that his future movies will no longer consider the box office on Hong Kong Island...

Now, the media is full of criticisms.

As the current record holder of domestic films, Lin Nan is inevitably brought up to talk about the matter.

Although Feng Xiaogang was provoking this wave of verbal battle, everyone understands that the Hong Kong circle is seriously injured.

Because the former can indeed ignore the box office on Hong Kong Island, this is the confidence of the big commercial film directors.

On the contrary, Hong Kong Island movies will die faster if they leave the mainland.

Lin Nan ignored the news outside and received a call from Lao Jiang.

"Why are you the first to participate in the defense?

With you here, they don’t dare to show up, they all want to retreat, haha.”

"There's still this?"

Lin Nan felt it was a bit incredible.

“After all, the status is too different.

Although they are all classmates, the pressure they put in front of you is no less than that in front of Director Tian and others."

After Lao Jiang said this, Lin Nan understood.

"Then I'll be the first to come."

"Well, don't be late at nine o'clock tomorrow morning."

“No.”

That afternoon, Lin Nan's first defense was announced at Beijing Television.

Many professors and teachers applied to attend.

Even a large number of students in school want to join in the fun.

…………

The next morning, Lin Nan was wearing casual clothes and drove away.

Liu Yifei went out earlier. Today she has photos of fashion magazines to take, which is classical.

There are a lot of people on campus, and there are still many reporters involved.

They are all very interested in Lin Nan's "Hunting" and hope to get some insider information.

"Director Lin, can you reveal the content of the movie?"

"Sorry, no."

The reporter and student followed Lin Nan's footsteps and went to the graduate department of the Director's Department.

"Unrelated personnel are not allowed to enter the graduate student defense site, especially when the film is screened."

There were security guards who maintained order early here to stop media reporters and a large number of students.

"It's just you who have this treatment. Go ahead and see when I graduated from graduate school and have this situation?"

Lao Jiang joked and reminded him again.

"When the thesis speech was delivered, other graduates were there, but they did not participate in the film screening."

Lin Nan was a little surprised. According to the rules, classmates who graduated together could watch other people's works.

Lao Jiang saw Lin Nan’s doubts.

"I'm afraid they'll go out and talk nonsense.

This is a special treatment for you. If you can’t win the prize, you have to repay the favor, haha.”

"Okay, this is a good plan!" Lin Nan complained.

The two of them all the way to the stairs classroom.

There were more than 200 seats and one quarter of them were sitting, and the scene was really big.

Lin Nan glanced at him and found that there were nearly twenty people from other majors who came to listen to him.

Lao Jiang took over the copy of "Hunting" and went to prepare.

Lin Nan went to the podium alone.

"It's time to start."

Tian Jingshi looked at his students on the stage and said with a smile.

"Okay, teacher."

On the seat, both the professors and other graduates were instantly cheered up.

Lin Nan adjusted his thoughts and was preparing to dismiss the manuscript today.

"Everyone knows that I filmed "Martian Rescue", participated in investment and participated in "Inception."

The person below pricked up his ears and listened attentively.

"My thesis content is also related to these two films and is further deepened."

"Today, the topic of my speech is: "Heavy Industry Film and Film Industrialization."

As soon as Lin Nan finished speaking, the people on the stage had different expressions.

The director's professors, led by the shape of the field, had a glimmer of light in their eyes.

Teachers from other majors showed solemnity and felt that the trip was worthy.

Only those graduates who were attending the audition were all confused.

"Is this beyond the rules?"

A student muttered in a low voice.

"There is no such thing as 'film industrialization' in China, which is the biggest difference from Hollywood.

Their large-scale commercial films can be made like assembly line products.

Standardized, modular, process-based, simplified and extreme…”

...

...

Lin Nan talked happily for more than an hour.

He elaborated in detail on the production model of heavy industrial films, the advantages of film industrialization, and the role of promoting the entire industry.

There are also the relevant scientific research level, industrial design and manufacturing capabilities required, and various professional talents...

There were more and more people frowning below, sighing from time to time.

It took a long time before Lin Nan finished speaking.

"Heavy industrial films have the characteristics of highly specialized, process-based, capital-intensive, technology-intensive, and typified creation, and are the product of the highly developed film industry.

The above is my defense content. Please ask questions from teachers.”

Lin Nan looked at the professors in the first row and waited for them to speak.

"Director Tian, ​​you'd better come on. He knows more than me, what can I ask?"

Several professors looked depressed and helpless.

"He is indeed better than us old guys in this regard, so I won't ask."

Tian Jingshi shook his head and made a decision, but no one else objected.

Lin Nan didn't expect that this would be the result. It's really beyond the scope?

When the Hunting was screened, a group of graduates went out consciously.

"Fuck, is this the difference between us and him?"

After the group of people came out, they looked at each other, and Lin Nan's defense content was still flashing in their minds.

Not to mention writing this paper, they didn't even dare to think about it.

"Hunting" begins to play.

Unlike the paper that just talked about large-scale commercial films, the movie in front of me is a realist theme.

Scandals, lies, hatred, suspicion, everyone can make money, follow the crowd...

Once the seeds of doubt are planted, they are like white paper stained with ink and can no longer be wiped clean.

Academic professors are very good at this kind of film.

"It's worthy of being the one who took the Silver Bear twice.

Director Tian, ​​with Lin Nan as a reference, your future students will have a lot of hard work."

"Haha, it's a good thing to struggle, so that you can have goals and motivation."

...

It was not until around 2 pm that Lin Nan's defense was completely over.

"You're graduated."

Tian Shishi patted Lin Nan on the shoulder, although he was not as tall as the latter.

"Thank you for your care over the past few years, which has blocked me a lot of trouble."

Lin Nan said it sincerely, he has to be grateful.

Tian Shishi waved his hand, "It should be, I'll make a good movie in the future."

"Well, I will."

Lin Nan did not stay in school for much longer.

After getting the copy back, he returned to the company.

——

In the morning, Huayi announced a new film project to the media.

They will invest in a costume blockbuster directed by Xu Ke.

The industry is making fun of it. It seems that the old monster Xu has emerged from the attack of "Seven Swords".

That movie made Xu Ke's reputation plummet, and he was in a mess.

"Die Renjie series?"

Lin Nan saw the online report, and it was indeed "Tongtian Empire".

Not only has the investment reached 130 million, but the actors have also been confirmed and will start the filming early next month.

The listing is imminent, and these newly launched projects will add to Huayi.

A knock on the door sounded, and Lin Nan shouted "In".

"Director Lin, you guessed." Yue Jun walked in with a smile on his face.

"What's going on now?"

"It will take a few months, but it does not exclude our investment. After all, their competitors are all equally matched."

Lin Nan asked Yue Jun to pay attention to this matter at the beginning of the year.

After so long, I finally got an answer.

"How many shares can they give up?" Lin Nan asked.

“Not more than 10%.

After Yue Jun finished speaking, he couldn't help but ask again: "Director Lin, is it necessary to invest?"

“Yes…”

Lin Nan smiled and said, "Something that cannot be said."

"This matter is very important, and it is still above the Zhou Yi incident."

Yue Jun was a little shocked when he heard this.

He has been staring at Zhou Yi for so long and has met Jiang Chengrou for so many times, but he is still not as good as this matter!

"I understand, I will communicate with them again when I look back."

"But, I want more."

Lin Nan looked at Yue Jun and said firmly.

"But that person doesn't seem to let go at all, and it will be very difficult."

"On the basis of 10%, you can get a little more until you have nothing to talk about."

Seeing his boss's unquestionable appearance, Yue Jun could only nod.

"I'll do my best."

"Yeah, go."

Lin Nan leaned on the chair alone and breathed a sigh of relief.

…………

In the evening, Lin Nan received a call from Lao Jiang.

The reporter interviewed Lin Nan’s content during graduation defense from someone’s mouth.

News came out in the afternoon, and after several hours of fermentation.

The Internet has been a lot of noise now.

"I guess I asked about it from a graduate, and it's not a big deal.

I'll check it out later, how do I comment on me online, haha..."

Lin Nan said indifferently.

The purpose of writing this thesis was very simple at the beginning, which was the graduation thesis.

Of course, it would be even better if it could have a positive effect on the industry.
