That year Huayu

"Avatar"'s average box office growth of more than RMB 100 million in two days has not only made the domestic film and television industry restless, but also the officialdom.

At this rate, those 20 or 30 domestic films are completely gone. It is not an exaggeration to describe them as losing all their money.

When Lin Nan returned to the capital, he heard that in major 3D theaters, tickets for "Avatar" were hard to get, and scalpers were making huge profits.

There are even cases where theater insiders are involved in reselling.

This shows how popular "Avatar" is.

The crew of "Thirty-day Love" also filmed in the capital.

This is the first time Lin Nan has come here since the movie started filming.

As a female director, Xue Xiaolu's filming is very delicate, but the timing is definitely slow.

Don't mention it, Zhu Yawen is indeed very girly when she plays a girly girl.

"Lin Nan, I thought you had forgotten that you invested in this movie."

Xue Xiaolu joked after finishing a period of filming.

"That's what I said. I believe in Sister Xue's strength. Don't worry, that's why I didn't come."

Zhu Yawen and Wang Luodan gathered around with laughter.

"Maybe he's too busy. After all, the producer of "Xiu Chun Knife" is Yifei, haha..."

Lao Zhu joked with a wicked smile.

Lin Nan stared at Zhu Yawen with his eyes widened, and instantly got goosebumps all over his body.

Just because of the tone of the other person's words, the upturned orchid fingers, and the enchanting posture...

"I said, if you are asked to play a character of unknown orientation, don't really make yourself unclear about your orientation!

If this is the case, you will have to stay away from me in the future. "

The people around him also started laughing.

"What are you talking about? I am a real man!"

After beating her chest, Zhu Yawen instantly switched back to her role.

Most of the people in this crew are from Nortel, so the atmosphere is very good.

Wang Luodan, Jiang Yiyan, Zhang Jiayi...

Lin Nan didn't stay long during the visit, because the only people he could chat with were Xue Xiaolu, Zhu Yawen and Wang Luodan.

Others were either unfamiliar or reserved, and could barely say hello at most.

…

The General Administration can be said to have mobilized its troops this time.

A tiger entered the sheep pen and there was no way to deal with it. We could only let it eat and drink before sending it out.

In the morning, a large number of vehicles gathered outside the headquarters.

Major film companies, producers, directors, etc. arrived on time.

Huayi is now in the limelight, Wang Zhonglei is full of style, and he is surrounded by people, all with smiling faces.

Han Sanping, Ren Zhonglun, Xiying, Ningying, Changying...

Wanda, Guangguang, Chengtian, Xiaoma...

With dark circles under his eyes, Ning Hao quickly caught up with Lin Nan.

"Being a thief at night?"

“You’re just a thief, staying up late thinking about the script.

I just often think of "No Man's Land" unconsciously and instantly lose my mood..."

Lin Nan stopped talking about such sad things.

I heard that Ning Hao now holds several different versions from time to time to review those people.

As soon as one side fought back, the other side resubmitted, anyway, it was a good deal.

While talking, I saw Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Feng Xiaogang, and a few Hong Kong directors also arriving.

"I'm really looking forward to Zhang Weiping coming along, haha." Ning Hao said with a smile.

"Then you are overthinking it. He has no friends. He even fired map cannons in front of him, and no one wants to see him when he comes."

The venue was packed with seats.

Lin Nan and Ning Hao were placed in the second row, along with Zhang Yimou, Feng Xiaogang and others.

Huayi and Guangguang, several large private companies, are also in this row.

Companies such as Xiaoma are relatively far behind.

The conversation started from above.

"...According to current market analysis, the domestic box office of "Avatar" will most likely exceed 1 billion."

As soon as Tong Ju said a word, the place fell into dead silence.

Half a month ago, if someone had said that the mainland market could produce a blockbuster with a box office of one billion, they would have been scolded as crazy.

But at this moment, everyone has nothing to say, and only the word "bitter" is in their hearts.

Many film companies here have films that are being released, are losing money, and are losing money every moment...

"According to last year's mainland film industry statistics, "Avatar" accounted for nearly one-fifth..."

…

The theme of this meeting is very clear, requiring all companies and filmmakers to catch up.

Whether it is a state-owned enterprise or a private enterprise, you cannot always count on policy "tilt" and "protection" when making a movie.

"Encourage film and television companies to actively go public if they have the corresponding qualifications..."

"Comprehensively liberalize the financial industry, enter the film and television production industry, and provide sources of funds."

"Encourage and support film companies to create high-quality blockbusters and improve competitiveness."

…………

The group of people below, including Lin Nan, could tell that they were about to enter the fast lane.

The financial industry!

It means money!

There were restrictions in the policy in the past, but now if it is fully liberalized, there will be a steady stream of money.

Everyone immediately had their own thoughts, especially the film company.

Lin Nan knew that the first major salary increase in the industry was coming.

The original intention of the policy given by the above is very good, but it is difficult to say how the people below will use it.

…

A meeting lasted until the afternoon and ended with a small group of people remaining for a while.

"Lin Nan, what are your box office expectations for "Thieves"?"

This question is really straightforward.

"The post-production process hasn't been done yet, the special effects have just started, so we can't predict it."

Han Sanping, Feng Xiaogang and others watched Lin Nan and Tong Ju playing tricks.

"You still need to have some confidence. The records of domestic films are in your hands, haha."

Ning Hao wanted to tell Tong Ju about "No Man's Land", but in the end he held back and did not speak.

However, before leaving, Zhang Yimou called out to Lin Nan and Ning Hao.

"You are young directors, give me some honest opinions. In your opinion, where did "Three Guns" fail?"

When some people around saw this scene, they walked away quickly without any intention of gossiping.

Ning Hao opened his mouth and said politely: "Maybe there is something wrong with the casting and the script..."

Lin Nan looked at Zhang Yimou's questioning eyes and felt a little helpless. There was no need to ask such a question, right?

"Director Zhang, to be honest, if this movie had been made by someone else, it would actually have been okay. Of course, it wouldn't have the box office."

Zhang Yimou was not unhappy, but nodded and said, "Continue."

"A movie should not have two narrators. And the most important narrator is obviously not you, Director Zhang..."

As soon as Lin Nan finished speaking, he saw Zhang Yimou turned around and walked towards the vehicle that picked him up in the distance.

His usually steady steps were a little heavy this time, "Well, thank you."

Ning Hao approached Lin Nan as if he had seen a ghost.

"Are you crazy, giving Zhang Weiping eye drops here? They have been cooperating for more than ten years!"

"There are only three of us, who can spread the word? You or Director Zhang?"

Ning Hao shook his head.

"Besides, he wants to hear the truth, and what I say is true.

Husband and wife still have the seven-year itch, let alone just partners. "

Lin Nan glanced in Zhang Yimou's direction and said nonchalantly.

In his opinion, "Three Guns" should have caused a huge rift between the two people.

It is estimated that Zhang Weiping didn't notice this at all, or that his mind was all about money, and he didn't think about Zhang Yimou's thoughts and feelings at all.

"If this happens once at most, it's time to break up..."

"What are you mumbling about?" Ning Hao asked, looking at Lin Nan who was mumbling.

"Nothing? What do you think would happen if Director Zhang and Zhang Weiping broke up?"

"I guess Zhang Weiping will be miserable. He has offended a lot of people in the industry in recent years, haha..."

Lin Nan thinks so. Without Zhang Yimou, Zhang Weiping might not be able to survive in this industry.

…………

The policies discussed at the meeting were spread within a few days.

The leading companies were the first to take action.

A high-quality film company is the first choice for the financial industry.

Huayi was successfully listed and had a lot of cash, so I didn't really care.

After all, the Wang brothers don't want to share the stock in their hands.

Many sluggish small and medium-sized companies are eager to receive financial support.

However, those who need money the more they are ignored.

In just two days, many strangers came to visit Lin Nan's company.

The answer was affirmative, Lin Nan Pictures did not need investment.

This makes many peer companies both envious and helpless.

Ning Hao's bad monkey was also the target of special attention, and the couple were equally determined not to accept investment.

…

News about the successful financing of film and television companies began to appear on the Internet.

A large number of movies and TV series have begun to be concentrated on projects, and it is obvious that they have attracted investment.

The film and television industry seems to have become lively in an instant.

Xu Zheng took the initiative to come to the company to find Lin Nan.

"Director Lin, it's almost time. I'm ready to officially start the filming."

Of the four movies, now only "The Man on the Road" is left.

"Ready?"

"Well, the crew has made preparations before, and it's just the right time in the past few days."

"Then let's drive."

Lin Nan asked Jiang Yuerou to follow up on this matter. He had to watch the editing of "Thieves" in Tiangong Color.

"Lin Nan Pictures, "People on the Road" officially launches today, with Xu Zheng as director, starring: Xu Zheng, Wang Baoqiang..."

…

Huayi was successfully listed more than two months ago. I heard that this year’s annual meeting was not grand in scale.

As a shareholder, Lin Nan also received a gift.

The annual meeting was widely covered by the media.

The reason isn't how much it cost, or how much it paid out in dividends.

It is the future development direction proposed by brothers Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei at the annual meeting.

"Huayi will prepare many blockbusters in the next few years and prepare for diversified development...

Once the time is right, we will use the film and television business as the basis to expand into other peripheral industries..."

Lin Nan also watched the news specifically.

This plan now seems to be in line with the money-oriented economic situation.

But it is completely opposite to the above idea of ​​hoping that Huayi will "deeply develop" the film industry.

Moreover, this development plan is very easy to go astray...

The profits from "Eclipse" were exchanged for more expensive special effects equipment.

This time is much more valuable than the first batch.

"Lin, this batch of machines has been shipped by sea, and the equipment manufacturer's engineers will arrive on time.

And those employees have already arranged their departure time..."

"Well, I understand."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Nan calmed down. It was hundreds of millions again. It would be fake not to feel distressed.

Thinking about the three floors of Tiangong Color, I don’t know when they will be filled.
