Chapter 302 Rejection of "Hongmen Banquet", invitation from the film festival

Ning Hao was much more cautious this time, and he gave Lin Nan the new script of "No Man's Land".

"Let me see, I keep as much of the original plot as possible."

It should be that he remembered the experience of being beaten back again and again before, and Ning Hao's tone was a little depressed.

"Okay, I'll take a look."

Lin Nan began to read this newly created script.

How to say it, "No Man's Land" can no longer be considered a reshoot. To be precise, it should be a reshoot.

After all, more than half of the content in the script is different.

"The three of them have no objection?" Lin Nan looked up and asked.

Huang Bo, Xu Zheng, Yu Nan and others have all increased a lot.

"Well, I agreed a long time ago that the schedule and pay are fine."

Ning Hao knew what Lin Nan was asking, and he still had this kind of favor.

"Then let's take a photo. Although it's not as amazing as before after the correction, it's still very exciting." Lin Nan gave a positive answer.

"With your words, I can feel at ease to ask Dong Han for money, haha." Ning Hao's face showed a smile this time.

Even if something unexpected happens in the project of China Film Investment, when the remake requires funds, you still have to communicate with them first. It is difficult for others to intervene rashly.

In the afternoon, Lin Nan received a call from Ning Hao.

Han Sanping was very generous and directly approved 20 million yuan, which was higher than the investment amount at the first time.

…………

There are a lot of news in the entertainment industry, many of which are acquaintances.

"Steel 2" in the first half of the year scored more than 600 million US dollars worldwide.

At the same time, "Black Widow" was officially launched and has a very popular one.

Let's look at Ryan Reynolds again, it seems that he is still standing there, waiting for the opportunity...

I remember that Ruian invited Lin Nan to attend his engagement. This scene seemed to be yesterday.

But in a blink of an eye, the two of them left and said that they were separated, highlighting the clean and neat!

Lin Nan didn't take this news seriously. Isn't that the case in this circle?

He began to devote himself to the post-production editing of "Star Fortune".

Maybe it's because of personal feelings, he always feels that not much of this movie needs to be cut, and it's all very good...

"Leave a full version and I want to save it myself."

The editors can guess Lin Nan’s intentions for this request.

I should keep it for you to watch with Liu Yifei in the future. After all, this is a very beautiful and unforgettable memory.

"Don't worry, Director Lin, there is absolutely no problem."

The employees are very energetic about their boss’ movies.

...

The highly anticipated "The Flowers of War" has announced the main creative lineup to the outside world.

According to the original novel, the male protagonist chose a foreigner, Bell.

What the industry is most concerned about is the Mou Girl.

Although this time it was the "Flowers of the Flowers", there is only one real girl.

Nie!

The new picture was abnormal and I posted the makeup photos in advance.

A large number of people in the circle are sighing that it is Zhang Yimou, and the vision of choosing an actress is still so tricky.

Lin Nan also paid attention to the company. To be honest, it’s really good!

It was not until Lin Nan saw the production cost of "The Flowers of Flowers" that he realized why the promotion had already begun before the filming started.

The production cost is 600 million! It is also exclusively produced by the new picture!

This figure made all production companies in the industry widen their eyes.

It is absolutely impossible to make a profit by relying on box office, and you can only rely on selling copyrights.

But the story background of "The Flowers of Flowers" is not the type that foreigners like...

Zeng Jia and Yang Mi also saw Ni Ni's makeup photos.

"To be honest, it looks like that..."

Zeng Jia had previously complained about the selection requirements for "The Flowers of War" and now I saw the girl in the photo and had nothing to say.

It is indeed in line with the eight words of "smoking" and "pure and desire"!

"I'm so lucky..." Yang Mi sighed and said.

He was not a professional actress and his first movie was Zhang Yimou's heroine, or a movie with an investment of 600 million yuan.

In Yang Mi's opinion, the start of this newcomer should be the ceiling in the circle, and she can envy her to death.

Of course, among the actresses born in the 1980s, Liu Yifei is still the strongest...

…………

Since "Super Body", Liu Yifei's film pay has increased to 12 million.

Although it is already the highest group among actresses, the more this happens, the more movie projects you will stare at her.

Just like the invitation I just received today.

"I heard from them that the main actors have not yet been decided, and the heroine's first thought of me was me, so she sent an invitation."

Miss Liu was quite happy when she said this.

"What movie?"

" "Hongmen Banquet", ask me to play Yu Ji."

Lin Nan put down the water cup that he had just picked up.

He looked at Liu Yifei and asked confirmation: "Hong Kong Island team?"

"Well, it seems. The directors and screenwriters are all from there."

Lin Nan was relieved now, "Say it."

"Ah? Why? You haven't even read the script."

Liu Yifei asked in confusion. Although she could listen to Lin Nan, she still wanted to know the reason.

"Because people in Hong Kong can never shoot historical subjects well.

Of course, don't say this when you go out, haha..."

Miss Liu nodded and gave Lin Nan a blank look, "I'm not stupid, so I won't be looking for trouble."

"Then I'll let the people in the company refuse them?"

"Yeah, refuse."

Lin Nan remembered the previous entertainment news.

Originally, the investor wanted to find Lu Chuan to film "Hongmen Banquet", but that guy was slow and troubled, so he was replaced.

Although he was kicked, Lu Chuan, who thought he was a little hard-working, was unwilling to accept it.

After criticizing each other with the investor for a few days, he turned around and went to Xingmeira Investment. After finishing his work, he continued to write the script "The King's Feast".

In Lin Nan's opinion, both movies are destined to end.

One is a historical film on Hong Kong Island, which is naturally flawed. The other director is Lu Chuan, a guy with no experience in commercial films and a low-key attitude.

"Haha, if this is not a loss, it's a hell!"

...

The last time I met Xue Xiaolu was in early November. "Thirty-Three Days" had not been released yet.

It’s different to see Xue Xiaolu again now.

"Director Xue, congratulations." Lin Nan joked.

"It still sounds comfortable in 'Sister Xue'.

These days, the word "Director Xue" has made my ears calluses."

Among the three movies, "Lost in the Road", "The Embroidered Spring Sword" and "Thirty-Three Days", the latter has the highest profit.

Lin Nan cannot favor one and the other. Yue Jun is ready for the red envelopes from Bao Jingjing and Xue Xiaolu.

“In fact, there is no need to give so many extras.

Thank you for giving me this opportunity, which gave me the title of a 300 million-dollar club director.”

Lin Nan waved his hand, "It should be. If there are any projects in the future, can we continue to cooperate, right?"

Hearing this, Xue Xiaolu was no longer polite.

"Okay, if there is a movie without director in the future, please contact me at any time.

In addition, if I have a suitable movie role here, I will definitely give priority to Yifei, Zhang Yi and others..."

...

The premiere of "Orphan of Zhao" is today.

Lin Nan must have given Chen Kaige's face.

I remember the first time I participated in Director Chen’s movie premiere, when Lin Nan filmed "Time and Space Cruise".

It was just a movie called "The Promise", which made him confused throughout the whole process.

"Okay, let's go."

Liu Yifei, who had her short hair cut with her ears, chose a casual outfit today to highlight her heroic beauty.

It only took more than half an hour to put on makeup, which was much faster.

"Let's go."

After the two got in the car, the driver set out towards the destination.

Although Lin Nan had been mentally prepared for a long time, when he arrived at the place, he was still quite moved that Chen Kaige was really good at playing.

The premiere of "The Promise" was very fancy, but this time it was still the case.

Hundreds of people in costumes stood on both sides of the red carpet, lined up to welcome the guests.

It was the first time that Liu Yifei saw such a premiere and was very interested for a while.

“Go to the red carpet.”

Lin Nan stretched out his hand and Miss Liu took it.

As soon as the two stepped on the red carpet, they saw the "costume actors" on both sides making a unified welcome posture.

This show is really done!

The protagonists in today's venue are Chen Kaige and Ren Zhonglun, one director and the other producer.

Han Sanping didn't seem to be here, probably on the crew of "The Founding of the Party".

"Director Lin, Yifei."

"Director Lin..."

The first one to greet was Huang Xiaoming, followed by Fan Bingbing.

"Congratulations, I took the Tokyo Film Queen."

"Thank you, Director Lin."

Fan Bingbing smiled and thanked. Although the Tokyo Film Festival is not ranked high in the International Class A Film Festival, its actress bestie is still very good at making it.

Lin Nan led Liu Yifei to the most central position.

"Lin Nan, Yifei, welcome to the premiere of "The Orphan of Zhao".

Chen Kaige has one characteristic, which is that he always holds his posture and pays great attention to etiquette.

"Director Chen is polite."

After a few greetings with Chen Kaige and Ren Zhonglun, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei sat in the first row.

Not long after, the premiere officially began.

There are more than a dozen directors and actors on the stage, and they look so similar to the original "The Promise".

Lin Nan couldn't help laughing.

When asked about box office expectations, Chen Kaige did not speak, but was spoken by Chen Hong, the producer.

"Our movie investment and promotion are definitely over 100 million.

Director Chen spent a lot of effort on this movie.

At the box office of the movie, we hope to guarantee a minimum of 500 million, the more the better..."

Lin Nan looked at Liu Yifei, "When the premiere of "Star Fortune" will be held, I will leave the speech to you."

Miss Liu smiled sweetly, "No problem, don't underestimate me."

Starting from Ge You, actors have introduced their roles in the movie and their feelings...

The main film is here.

Liu Yifei watched it very seriously. She was very interested in non-commercial films such as Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige.

The first third is really good, the middle third is ordinary, I won’t talk about it later...

This is Lin Nan’s experience of watching the movie.

"Why do you feel a little confused after that?"

Liu Yifei whispered to Lin Nan's shoulder and pressed her ears.

"Xiqian, your skills have increased." Lin Nan replied softly.

When Miss Liu heard this, she was stunned at first, then she sat upright, and the director made a mistake too?

In Lin Nan's opinion, if it were a normal director, the movie would actually be qualified...

The video ends.

Amid the applause, Chen Kaige smiled happily. This is a great director who is addicted to flowers and applause.

During the cocktail party, Liu Yifei joked with Huang Xiaoming and talked about the latter's girlfriend, which made the leader hesitate and finally said that he would introduce him to him another day.

Lin Nan greeted the two and walked away. He saw an interested actor.

"Hello, Mr. Zhao."

There were almost no one around Zhao Wenzhuo.

He was already preparing to sit next to eat something, and he would go home after the end.

Who knew that Lin Nan came over at this time, which caught him off guard for a while, "Director Lin, hello, I am Zhao Wenzhuo."

Many people in the distance saw this scene and had some conjectures in their hearts.

At the premiere, Lin Nan said hello to strange actors. The previous one was Wang Baoqiang, and there was "Lost in the Road" behind it...

Many people saw Zhao Wenzhuo handing Lin Nan a business card with both hands.

"This is my contact information, and I hope I can cooperate with Director Lin in the future."

Zhao Wenzhuo did not expect that there would be unexpected gains today.

"There are not many excellent action actors now. I will contact Mr. Zhao next time I have the chance."

Lin Nan nodded and accepted the business card.

"Thank you, Director Lin."

...

When he returned to Liu Yifei, Huang Xiaoming said with a smile:

"When in the crew, Brother Zhuo performed his skills, which was very shocking!"

...

The media is already reporting on the news about "Orphan of Zhao".

The slogan of guaranteeing a box office of 500 million has spread throughout the circle.

In addition, the topic of Zhao Wenzhuo and Lin Nan's friendship also appeared online...

"Do you have any plans to make a kung fu or action movie?" Liu Yifei was a little curious.

"I haven't planned this for a short time, but when I see him, I'll ask for a contact information. Maybe I'll use it someday."

Liu Yifei thought there was a new show, so she was so happy.

Lin Nan didn't lie. When Lu Yang invited them to watch "Su Qi'er" last time, he said that he would have the chance to film Zhao Wenzhuo in the future.

...

"Thirty-Three Days of Love" has not finished its release period, and the box office has stopped at 355 million.

It became the biggest dark horse in the film market this year, unless there is a movie in December that has a higher yield than it, but the possibility is slim.

Lin Nan continued to stare at the later stage of "Star Fortune".

Liu Yifei also came to Tiangong Color from time to time to take a look, and bought a lot of fruits to share with everyone, winning people's hearts...

"Director Lin, someone comes to the company to see you."

"Who?"

"It is said that he is the film selection director of the Berlin Film Festival in Asia."

Hearing this, Lin Nan patted his forehead with one hand, and he forgot about it.

In the conference room on the 3rd floor, Lin Nan saw a foreigner.

In the past, he signed up for his own movies, and this was the first time he came into contact with the film selection committee.

"Lin, I'm very happy to meet you.

I heard you made an art film called "The Fault in the Stars"?"

...

Berlin has a different meaning for Lin Nan.

His first best director trophy was won from Berlin.

In the eyes of outsiders, he is considered the direct descendant of the Berlin Film Festival.

...

"Yes, "The Fault in the Stars" is in post-production."

Lin Nan had nothing to hide, and he knew very well what the other party was going to do.

"Lin, you are an internationally renowned director and won the Silver Bear Award twice.

On behalf of the organizing committee, I will invite you to Berlin…”

...

...

Lin Nan did not agree on the spot, and promised to give an answer when the post-production was completed.

After all, the Berlin Film Festival will not open until February next year, and it is still a long time before the closing time will be completed in early January.

"Berlin?"

"Cannes?"

"Venice...forget it."

There is only one chapter today, and this chapter is written with all my might.

Because the author has yang, the second yang, the symptoms are similar to the first time...
