That year Huayu

Zeng Li's "The Barber" was released at the end of April, hoping to take advantage of the Golden Week schedule.

One person appeared in two movies at the same time, both of which were female protagonists. Zeng Li suddenly received a lot more reports.

When the media interviewed her classmates and friends, everyone praised her, including her appearance, personality and good memories of the past campus.

"Insidious" lived up to expectations. In the last week, it slowly reached a global box office of 100 million, and Lionsgate's press release was distributed all over Hollywood.

"Director Lin, are you excited that it's about to be released? Your "Insidious" has achieved great success around the world."

On the last day of April, many people called to congratulate Lin Nan.

"It's okay, I hope it continues, haha."

Lin Nan suppressed his heart. He couldn't guarantee what kind of fruit "Time Cruise" would bear. No one could say bad things about this script in his previous life, but the box office was still pretty good.

On May Day, Lin Nan got up early. I believe the theater chain was preparing last night. Theaters will be very busy during this period.

After cleaning up and washing up, Lin Nan was ready to go to the cinema, but she still felt a little uneasy.

The festive atmosphere is strong and it can be seen from the traffic jams.

The theater was already crowded outside. Lin Nan put on a hat, adjusted his flat glasses, and walked in.

The most talked about "The Da Vinci Code" will have to wait until the second half of the month, as will "Lu Xiaofeng", and the rest are feature films.

On the contrary, there are a few movies in April and some audiences. Zeng Li's "The Sweeney" is still ranked at the top.

The crowd was mainly on the side of "Time Cruise". It can be said that among the films shown, "Time Cruise" attracted 70% of the audience.

China Film's film schedule is amazing.

Lin Nan contributed a share of the box office for himself, and the theater was almost full.

As the plot of the movie unfolded, Lin Nan heard the buzz around him.

"Is this science fiction?"

"Did the heroine die in the car accident? Why did the child disappear?"

"This driver is the director of "The Stone"!"

…

The difference in time between watches and clocks was a detail that was highlighted during editing. When the audience discovered it, they started discussing the plot setting again, and the effect was very good.

When a heroine returns home and sees her other self, the plot reaches a climax, and the audience in the theater is left wondering, who is the real heroine?

Everyone thinks that they are the real one, because they are the real ones in different time and space. Only the one in this time and space realizes this...

Lin Nan left the theater. He found that the response from the audience was pretty good after the end. Many people even wanted to watch it again because some clues were not clear yet, but they understood 70% to 80% of it, which was very heart-wrenching.

May Day is a big time, and the media will inevitably be stationed in various theaters to report on it.

The Penguin message was flashing, and many acquaintances said they were going to contribute ticket money to Lin Nan.

Wang Luodan even said that several members of the "Struggle" crew went to watch the movie as a group and were reimbursed.

That night, Han Sanping called Lin Nan for dinner. According to the feedback from the top theaters of China Film and Television, the attendance rate was unique. After all, there were no competitors during the same period.

"Come, come, eat and drink with peace of mind, the first day's box office will be out in a few hours."

Han Sanping held up his wine glass and smiled.

The announcement was made by Shanghai Film Studio, and there was also a senior executive from Shanghai Film Studio at the dinner table.

"Congratulations to Director Lin, and I wish this film will break the box office record on the first day."

The news in the media has been revealed.

“‘Time Cruise’ is uniquely blessed with an exclusive Golden Week slot!”

"The attendance rate is high, and Lin Nan's new film is expected to set its own record."

"The film schedule is a bit unfair. "Time Cruiser" has no competitors at the same level..."

The current first-day box office record for domestic films is in the hands of "The Promise". Although Lin Nan has some expectations, she doesn't have high expectations.

He slept in the hotel that night and drank some, but Lin Nan vaguely remembered that someone knocked on the door for no reason in the middle of the night, but luckily it was locked.

The first-day box office of 18.5 million exceeded the original "The Stone", but it still did not reach the level of "The Promise". After all, Chen was betting on his reputation for decades.

This data is issued by China Film Group, which is in charge of the national distribution business and is always the one who knows the first-hand data.

"Lin Zi, you bombed again, watch the news." Ning Hao's call came in at the right time.

Online reviews of "Time Cruise" are very subtle. Most viewers find the movie to be imaginative, the plot to be endless, exciting and interesting.

And film critics can always find faults.

"Science fiction is science fiction, and horror movies are horror movies. It's a mixture, neither fish nor fowl..."

"It seems to leave room for the audience's imagination, but in fact it is pretending to be profound..."

If these people don't play devil's advocate, they don't seem to be able to show their professional characteristics. Lin Nan really wants to say that if you have the ability, you can do it.

"You think which one is more eye-catching, their fault-finding or their compliments?" Lin Nan said.

When many people in the circle were interviewed, they congratulated Lin Nan and carried the sedan chair.

On the second day, the box office did not increase significantly, but it remained at 15 million. The media boldly predicted that Lin Nan's previous expectation of 200 million might actually have a chance to come true.

The news coming back from abroad is not optimistic. There are a lot of Hollywood blockbusters in April and May. They suffer a loss in the domestic film schedule, but they are popular around the world.

Lin Nan, a novice going out to sea, was hit on the shore by a big wave.

"Forget it, take your time from now on. Who dares to say that you can catch a big fish the first time you go to sea, haha."

Lin Nan could only comfort himself in this way.

On the third and fourth days, until the end of the first week, "Time Cruise" successfully exceeded 100 million.

China Film told Lin Nan that pirated discs had appeared.

As Lin Nan became famous, his films were inevitably targeted, which is the treatment given to great and famous directors.

Fortunately, the daily box office was still over 10 million. It was not until the 11th that the Hollywood movie "Level 1" was released, causing the daily box office of "Time Cruiser" to significantly decrease.

"Two hundred million should be no problem, right?"

"By the time it is released at the end of this month, there shouldn't be any big problems." Lin Nan predicted.

Because of "Level 1", the daily box office dropped to below 10 million, to 8 or 9 million, and the situation of killing in the first ten days was completely gone.

Just two days into the third week, "The Da Vinci Code" was released simultaneously around the world and once again stole some of the audience. The daily box office of "Time Cruiser" reached 5 to 6 million.

Lin Nan knew that this was a normal phenomenon, but it did not affect his stated goal.

The time was fixed on the 25th. China Film and Shanghai Film Corporation issued an announcement to celebrate the domestic box office of "Time Cruiser" reaching 200 million, and Lin Nan entered the list of directors in the 200 million box office club.

At this time, the daily box office is already less than 2 million, and the film will be released at the end of the month.

A text message from Nortel was sent, "Celebrating Lin Nan, an outstanding student in the 2002 class of our school's directing department, whose new film "Time Cruiser" has a box office of over 200 million!"

The first Zhang Yimou is from Nortel, and the second Lin Nan is still from Nortel.

"It's a pity that the leading actor is from China." A leader lamented.

Zeng Li is quite popular. "The Sweeney" fell at the feet of "Time Cruiser", but it did not affect her.

Among her classmates, she finally has her own representative work, and she is still a high-grossing heroine.

"On Hong Kong Island, the current quotation is 22 million, and it has stopped moving."

Listening to this data, Lin Nan also understood that considering how many people there were, this number was already very good.

However, the data outside is really unsatisfactory. The total amount is only 12 million US dollars. It is profitable, but it is not ideal.

If this idea was known to the outside world, Lin Nan would definitely be scolded for being shameless.

Even before the movie was released, Shanghai Film and Television Films and China Film Group held a celebration party.

So far, the two companies have not lost money in cooperation with Lin Nan. They have all made money. Especially this time the box office exceeded 200 million, which is a milestone.

Capital Hotel, this time there is no more eyesore like Lu Chuan.

China Film and Shanghai Film Group, Lin Nan and the crew were all here. Respectable film and television companies, actors, artists, directors and producers, no one was left behind.

Mr. Huayi Xiaowang led two ice soldiers, Wang Changtian, Yu Dong and others were also there. This time there were also some people in the industry specializing in TV dramas.

"It seems that many TV drama production companies are here?"

Ning Hao asked.

"The company has started to do this, and we will deal with them in the future. Taking advantage of this opportunity, I invited some." Lin Nan said.

New faces such as Tang Dynasty and Zhou Yi were indeed not seen in previous movie celebration banquets.

Shu Chang was chatting with Zhang Jizhong and Huang Xiaoming, and came over after a while.

"Isn't Sissi back yet?"

"Her Japanese album and EP are almost ready. She will be back in two days. She also has a movie to be released next month."

Lin Nan said.

Huang Xiaoming followed, "Director Lin, congratulations to you, you are the only director of the 200 million club in China. Shu Chang and I have finally gotten to know each other, and the crew will take care of each other."

"Thanks."

Lin Nan looked in Hua Yi's direction and said, "This drama is produced by Hua Yi. Are you ready to sign with Hua Yi after terminating the contract?"

Shu Changquan pretended not to hear these words and walked aside.

Huang Xiaoming smiled and nodded, "I have this plan, and we are negotiating. Huayi can provide me with more and better resources. Of course, it will be an even greater honor if Director Lin takes care of me in the future, haha."

"You really think about it, if you have the chance." Lin Nan raised the cup in his hand.

Many reporters and media came to this celebration banquet. Han Sanping wanted to take this opportunity to get rid of his bad luck. The 25% investment share of China Film was entirely due to him.

"I'm about to graduate, what are your plans for your next movie?"

Ren Dong asked in a low voice, but there were many people around who raised their ears.

"I'm still thinking about it. At least I have to wait until "Journey to the Center of the Earth" is released next month. My company is also investing in TV series."

Lin Nan replied.

"Haha, let's wait until this movie is over before we talk about it. It's better to strike while the iron is hot and prepare for the next one."

"Thank you very much, Director Ren, for your concern."

…

"Hello, Director Lin, I am Jiang Yanrou..."

There are not many famous female producers, and this is another one.

Lin Nan invited many companies and people from the TV industry this time, and everyone can guess the purpose.

Even if you are one of the best in filmmaking, aren't you still a novice when you step into another industry?

Tang Dynasty and Zhou Yi are able to do so well in TV dramas because they have their own complete team and a behind-the-scenes team they have trained themselves, including lighting, martial arts, directors, and screenwriters. They can complete it independently from beginning to end.

"I look forward to working with Director Lin one day."

"Me too. If you need investment someday, Mr. Jiang can contact me."

Lin Nan said with a smile that it is easy for the other party's production model to have financial problems.

"Thanks."

Everyone, please help your character click red hearts to level up.
