That year Huayu

Suddenly someone called "Teacher Lin" from behind. Lin Nan didn't react for a while. When he looked back, he realized it was Guan Xiaotong.

Well, there is indeed nothing wrong with Nortel students and incoming freshmen calling him "Teacher Lin."

Moreover, this title can also shorten the distance between each other, which really allows these students to find a "shortcut".

"Are you in this movie too?" Lin Nan blurted out and asked.

The main reason is that the number of actors in "The Founding of an Army" is the same as that of the previous two films. There are too many actors. Even if there are previous reports, he cannot remember them all.

"Well, yes, I play Teacher Zhu Yawen's lover."

Good guy, when Lin Nan heard this, he immediately glanced at Lao Zhu beside him. The latter smiled and nodded. Is this an old cow paired with young grass in the play?

"Then you should act well. His face is a bit ugly. Just don't laugh when you act opposite him, haha..."

Looking at Guan Xiaotong, who was still very young at only 19 years old, Lin Nan smiled and joked, and the people around him also laughed.

"I may not be as handsome as you, but buddy, I still have thick eyebrows, big eyes, and a dignified appearance... I don't ask you to praise me, but please don't belittle me either. Okay, Director Lin?"

Zhu Yawen complained with a look of resentment, which heated up the lively atmosphere.

"Okay, of course it's no problem. To play Premier Zhou, you need to be well-groomed."

While several people were chatting and laughing, Lin Nan suddenly discovered that there were quite a few acquaintances in "The Founding of the Army". Many of them had worked with Lin Nan Pictures, and they were all present at the scene:

Liu Ye, Zhu Yawen, Zhang Hanyu, Yu Hewei, Liu Haoran, Zhou Yiwei...

There are a lot of acquaintances, but it has to be said that this movie has more people involved, and they are all related to the management and the director! And they are all related people who got the core roles: Li Yifeng, Han Geng, Ou Hao, Zhang Yixing... including Lu Han, Guan Xiaotong and others.

At around ten o'clock, the launch conference of "The Founding of an Army" was already halfway through and entering the middle stage;

It can be seen that the higher-ups are paying more and more attention to the main theme and the gift video. The leaders of the General Administration, Central Propaganda and other units took turns to speak, and La Peikang and others had to queue up behind.

As the last part of a trilogy of tribute films, the leaders' requirements are not low. The words "the film's reputation cannot be inferior to the first two" directly put the pressure on the shoulders of China Film.

When Lin Nan heard this request, he really couldn't help laughing. There is already a huge gap in the quality of the actors, so why not lose to the first two films? Take the lead?

"It's almost 11 o'clock, are you leaving now?" Liu Yifei tilted her upper body and whispered in Lin Nan's ear. She knew that Lin Nan still had a dinner party.

Looking at the new watch on his wrist that Miss Liu bought for him yesterday, Director Lin nodded, "Well, it's almost time to leave. What will you do at noon? Should you go home?"

"You don't have to worry, Yifei will follow me to eat and drink in a while."

Before Liu Yifei could speak, Han Jianu had already taken over the conversation in a low voice, patting her chest, with a confident expression on her face.

"Well, I'll go with her." Miss Liu also smiled and nodded.

"Okay, if you have anything to do, call me and I'll leave first. Also, help me say hello to Director Han and the others."

After Lin Nan finished speaking, he immediately walked out of the venue without paying attention to the looks of many guests and media present.

…

Guomao, Song Ge's assistant has checked the menu several times.

Chairman Song and Wu Ershan were standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling windows of the small banquet hall, looking out at the scenery outside.

"The development trend of the domestic film and television industry has become more and more obvious. Capital will have absolute say and dominance, and will be more 'dominant' than the big Hollywood companies.

Therefore, Director Wu should seize this opportunity. I will help you become a capital. Although it is not comparable to big capitals such as Director Ning Hao and Director Xu Zheng, I can still guarantee a place in the capital circle. Director Wu will definitely have it! "

Song Ge did not dare to mention Lin Nan, because the latter could not be summed up by the phrase "top capital in the film and television industry";

Production business, special effects business, Tudou and Weibo, Hollywood companies, investment...Although there are few allies, they are all top capital, and I have my name on them. Even in the international film circle, he is a well-known figure at home and abroad. business card!

"I know, so I ask Director Song to take care of me this time. I will cooperate with your operations, and I also ask Director Song to cooperate with my project. Can we win-win?"

"Director Song, Director Wu, and Director Lin Nan have already entered the elevator." The door to the banquet hall was pushed open, and the assistant reminded.

"Director Wu, let's go and greet him. Director Lin came over from "The Founding of an Army" on the way, hehe..."

Song Ge took the lead with a smile, Wu Ershan nodded and followed closely behind.

To be honest, Lin Nan wouldn't have wanted to come here if he hadn't been in love with Wu Ershan.

His own circle of friends has always been small, so he is actually unfamiliar with many capitals in the industry and other industries because he has never dealt with them.

On the way to China World Trade Center today, he carefully conducted a "back-up investigation" on Song Ge for this purpose; well, he called Wang Changtian to consult.

Lao Wang does know a lot. After all, there is a lot of lighting business and a lot of communication. According to him, this Song Ge can be called a poisonous snake in the capital circle.

The film and television company founded by the latter earlier was not worth much, but he did not know what method or connections he used, and finally let the listed company Jingxi Culture acquire his company, and he himself joined Jingxi Culture along with him;

After that, in just two or three years, this guy seemed to be cheating, and started to eat away at Jingxi culture from the inside step by step. In the end, he even ousted the original chairman and major shareholder, completing the She Tun Xiang and The "feat" of a dove occupying a magpie's nest;

And now Jingxi Culture, a listed company, is the name of Song Ge. What he is best at is not film production, but financial operations by participating in some movies... The water is very, very deep.

After Lin Nan was "ceremoniously" welcomed into the small banquet hall, Song Ge immediately told his assistant: "It's already past 12 o'clock, tell me to serve. As for the wine, open the bottle I brought..."

The banquet hall is decorated with many green plants in full bloom, giving people a relaxed and natural feeling.

"Director Lin, it's really troublesome for you to come all the way from "The Founding of an Army"." Wu Ershan said politely.

"If I promise others things in advance, I will basically never break the promise. Besides, the itinerary for "The Founding of an Army" was also decided after you."

Suddenly, the door of the banquet hall opened again, and a group of waiters filed in. The bright red color in the decanter was even more conspicuous.

When there were only three people left in the room again, Song Ge made a "please" gesture: "Director Lin, let's get started. Let's chat while eating, Director Wu, you..."

"Oh, by the way. Director Lin, wait a moment." As he spoke, Wu Ershan stood up and took a thick document bag from the desk with a vase on the side.

Lin Nan glanced at it and knew that the "dinner" was coming. He was also very curious as to what was the real purpose of these two people dating him for so long.

When Wu Ershan sat down again and opened the document bag, Song Ge also spoke at the same time:

"Director Lin, Director Wu and I have not known each other for as long as you. We just met last year, but I am very optimistic about his project;

Director Wu Ershan has collaborated with Lin Nan Pictures several times, and I also hope to invite Director Lin to work together through his project, so that we can get to know each other and officially become friends..."

Lin Nan did not respond to the other party's words, but took over the three scripts handed over by Wu Ershan.

""Fengshen Part 1: Chao Ge Fengyun"!"

When he opened the first script and saw the line on the first page, Lin Nan read it subconsciously. At this moment, his heart was shocked, and he felt as if the fog had been cleared away and enlightened!

He glanced at Song Ge and then at Wu Ershan, ""Fengshen...Part Three"?"

"Haha... Director Lin is not so shocked, is he? The "Fengshen Trilogy" directed by Wu Ershan will not be as rubbish as China Star's "Fengshen Legend". Their director is bad, the script is bad, and the makeup is bad. There are no Chinese elements in Chinese or Eastern mythology..."

Song Ge obviously didn't notice the strange expression on Lin Nan's face, and was still laughing and playing "Legend of the Gods" while Wu Ershan nodded in agreement, also smiling.

"Director Lin, I plan to make the entire "Feng Shen" into three large-scale special effects blockbusters; we plan to invest a total of 3 billion to complete these three films, and it will take another two years to audition and train new talents around the world. New actors, supplemented by veteran actors and experienced actors in the industry, shot three movies at once..."

Wu Ershan followed closely behind, introducing his "grand plan" to Lin Nan.

But at this moment, Director Lin is a little absent-minded, because buried deep in the deepest "dream" in his heart, he has never seen this movie. To be precise, he has not seen the finished film...

But judging from his many years of film experience, 3 billion for three movies? hehe!

"A movie is more than two hours long. Do you plan to use CG throughout?"

Lin Nan asked "sincerely". The two guys in front of him were obviously trying to trick him into participating in this movie, and they wanted to use his reputation to cause trouble!

Sure enough, after seeing Lin Nan's "something's wrong" expression, Wu Ershan was speechless for a moment, "Director Lin, the three movies will use a lot of special effects shots and high-quality special effects... In addition, we are going to do some Training camps are also time-consuming, labor-intensive, and expensive...but are they all for the movie?”

""Fengshen" is just like "Journey to the West". The plot has been set there. No matter how you shoot it or do the special effects, its upper limit is there. It is fixed and the same!

Unless you can be like Zhou Xingchi in "Journey to the West" in "Fengshen", the current Zhou Xingchi will have to come out again and act in the "Westward Journey" series by himself!

Otherwise, it costs 1 billion to make a movie, haha, and sells 3 billion to get back the cost? It's not a particularly nutritious subject. How much free time do I have to spend two years with you playing this? It seems that our friendship has not reached that stage, right? "

Lin Nan had a smile on his face, but his words were filled with disdain; even if Wang Changtian told him about a similar project like this one day, he would definitely follow it;

Who would be so free every day to engage in such a project that consumes time, money, and is difficult to achieve high profits? Unless it was not about making a movie from the beginning, nor was it expected to make a profit through the box office, and it would be a high profit!

Thinking of this, Lin Nan subconsciously looked at Song Ge, only to see that the latter did not have Wu Ershan's awkward expression at all, but instead looked calm and calm.

"Director Lin, a movie, a super IP special effects masterpiece based on traditional Eastern mythology, and it is also a trilogy series! In fact, as long as it is filmed and the audience is satisfied, it will not lose money, it will only make money!

Director Lin should understand what I mean. After all, you are also a top capital giant. Weibo is a listed company on Nasdaq, and Tudou is about to be listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. "

Wu Ershan kept silent and handed the home court to Song Ge, while Lin Nan looked at him with interest and motioned for him to continue. These words were really naked!

"Director Lin has unparalleled appeal in the film industry, among audiences and fans, and in the film market; Director Wu and I would like to invite Director Lin to work together and be the producer of this film, just by name.

As for investing? Not only can Director Lin get a share of the box office without investing any money, but we will also pay you 50% of the market premium... I can even give you shares in Beijing West Culture...

Director Lin, Jingxi Culture is a listed company and will control this film. If a cooperation can be reached, you should know how the financial market will react... I can harvest the shares I give you on your behalf to ensure there is no leakage. We can even give you a guarantee of 500 million. What do you think, Director Lin? Of course, with our operations, we naturally hope to harvest as much as possible..."

Song Ge talked eloquently and followed instructions. Although Wu Ershan did not interrupt, the expression on his face was full of approval and approval.

Lin Nan glanced at the two men and couldn't bear it anymore, so she immediately interrupted the former:

"Oh, Director Song, are you going to get straight to the point and speak frankly?

Do you really just want to cut leeks to death? Or is it that in the production process of these three so-called 1 billion-cost super-large IP special effects masterpieces, there may be some stained things that need to be dealt with from time to time?

After all, in my opinion, the risk of cutting leeks is also very high, and the process is not simple. It is also time-consuming, labor-intensive, and the scale of leeks in the film and television industry is so large. How many can be cut?

Huayi is the listed company with the highest market value in the film and television industry, but I can say with certainty that they would never dare to use 3 billion to make three movies just to cut the leeks!

Therefore, what Director Song told me about cutting leeks was probably just a cover, or a minor operation, right? "

Lin Nan flipped the table over with just one word. He did it on purpose.

At this moment, the drop of a needle could be heard in the banquet hall, the atmosphere was deathly silent and extremely solemn.

Song Ge's face was gloomy and frighteningly pale, while Wu Ershan lowered his head and remained silent.

"Director Lin is joking, isn't it? You can't make such a joke casually." The former's smile was a little forced, and the confidence in his voice was not as strong as before.

Lin Nan smiled and shook his head, picked up his cup of tea on the table, but put it down after thinking about it:

"It has been 13 years since I officially got involved in film production in 2003. When it comes to film production and operation, I have more experience than you. Even in the stock market, I have taken shares of Huayi and am now a shareholder of Weibo. Potatoes will also be on the market later...

Director Song, your roundabout ways of fooling other directors will most likely succeed, but in my case, the loopholes are too big! Besides, as far as your intention is concerned, we are indeed not the same person! "

After speaking, Lin Nan stood up.

He had only been sitting here for half an hour, and he didn't touch any of the food or drink on the table, nor did he plan to touch it.

At this moment, he was ready to leave and go back to meet Liu Yifei; but after all, they were not the same people here, and there was no speculation.

The two people in front of them obviously saw Lin Nan's intention, but they did not stop him because Lin Nan's words just now had already broken their skin and it was impossible for them to cooperate.

And the two of them can't offend Lin Nan...

"Director Wu Ershan." As he walked to the door, Lin Nan turned around and shouted again.

"Director Lin?"

"Your previous cooperation with Lin Nan Pictures was very successful, and it can be considered a successful end. This is the end of this sweet relationship. After the Hundred Flowers Award, everyone will be well."

After finishing speaking, before the other party could react, Lin Nan strode out of the banquet hall door and disappeared from the sight of the two of them.

Wu Ershan's face looked strange for the first time today, but he had no regrets.

"Director Song, as I said before, I am not sure about this matter."

"Since he is so arrogant and aloof, let's just do it ourselves!"

"But, will Director Lin know it?"

"Don't worry, the unspoken rules of the industry are there. How many are clean? If he dares, he will really become the target of public criticism; and it is not just the target of public criticism in the film and television industry! In addition, as far as I know, Hua Yi It’s not very clean either!”

…

Liu Yifei was still a little confused when she received Lin Nan's call. Why did she do it so quickly?

"Then come over quickly. Jia Nu and I are at the private restaurant. I'll leave you some leftovers, hehe..."

"Didn't you say that she took you to eat and drink? Why did you get there?" Lin Nan joked curiously while driving the car.

"It's all about eating and drinking. It's all about your Producer Liu." Han Jianu's voice sounded, with obvious arrogance and arrogance in her tone.

…
