That year Huayu

Although May is not over yet.

However, several domestic films released in June and July have already started promotional activities.

The one that received the most attention was "The Great Earthquake". After all, the topic was there and it was supported by the official media.

What is unexpected is that Jing Tian's "My Beautiful Boss" is also very popular. Maybe it's because of the blessing of the big-budget movie "Warring States".

More and more people are making movies across borders.

Guo Degang's "Three Smiling Talents and Beauties" was released in despair amidst ridicule. It is said that the total box office was only around 7 million.

However, Zhao Benshan's "Laughing in the River", which has just started shooting recently, is favored by many film companies in the industry.

Whether it's a bad movie or not, no one cares.

But I estimate that the box office won't be too bad by then. After all, I have been a Spring Festival Gala veteran for many years, and I still have this appeal.

"Director Lin, the Magic City International Film Festival will be opening in two days. Do you want to bring a few films there for promotion?"

Lin Nan had considered Yue Jun's proposal before.

Although the Magic City International Film Festival is relatively inferior in Category A, it is indeed a very good promotion platform.

In 2007, Lin Nan took "Painted Skin" there to promote it.

"Okay, let them prepare the promotional posters and brochures in the next two days. Go and contact them and sign up for all four movies to participate in the exhibition."

Lin Nan ordered.

Although he did not intend to bring his work to the competition, this did not prevent him from bringing his film to the exhibition.

One of the purposes of the Magic City Film Festival is to provide a platform for domestic and foreign films to exhibit, promote, and communicate.

"Will you go then?"

Yue Jun asked with a smile. The company has signed up four films for the exhibition, and the other party will definitely take Lin Nan's idea.

"go."

Since you want to promote a movie, you have to do it right.

"Okay, I'll contact the organizer later."

After Yue Jun left the office, Lin Nan thought of "Super Body". How could he miss such a good publicity opportunity?

Immediately afterwards, he sent an email to Tom and said hello to Han Sanping. After all, China Film was responsible for the introduction and supervision of the imported film "Super Body".

…………

I have to say that "Ip Man 2" really made Donnie Yen popular.

Although Lin Nan and Ying Huang have stopped the "Ip Man" project, it does not prevent others from receiving new dramas.

And as soon as they were picked up, they were two movies with an investment of hundreds of millions.

They are "Guan Yunchang" with an investment of 150 million and "Martial Arts" with a production cost of 145 million.

When Lin Nan saw the news, he felt a little speechless about the casting, which was purely for temporary fame.

Donnie Yen, who is just over 1.7 meters tall, has to play the role of Guan Yu, who is nine feet tall. No matter how he thinks about it, it feels awkward.

"It's probably two more movies that hit the street..."

Within two days, news spread that four films from Lin Nan Pictures would be exhibited at the Shanghai Film Festival.

In addition, among the imported films participating in the exhibition, there is also "Super Body".

Ms. Liu has already arranged her schedule and will fly to Shanghai with Lin Nan and others to promote her movie.

"If I had known, you should have said this two months ago."

Ren Zhonglun called Lin Nan.

"What's the meaning?"

"I asked you to be the judge of the film festival. You can also fill in now..."

"Director Ren, I'm not interested in this matter. Besides, are you going to work for a Hong Kong director?"

Lin Nan's words made Ren Zhonglun a little stuck. In recent years, the chairman of the jury has been either a foreign director or a Hong Kong director. This year, it is Wu Yusen.

"That's right. If you come, you have to be the chairman of the jury no matter what, haha..."

Lin Nan politely rejected Ren Zhonglun's true intention of making this call.

Firstly, he doesn't need to make a name for himself, and secondly, he doesn't care about his qualifications. He has no interest in this kind of waste of time.

It's better to stay at home with Miss Liu.

…

The posters of "The Lost Journey" began to appear in prominent locations in various theaters.

Logically speaking, such a low-budget film directed by a novice should not receive such treatment.

But who made it produced by Lin Nan Pictures?

In addition, the screenwriter is Lin Nan, so this preferential treatment is still available.

Time enters June.

Xu Zheng, Lu Yang, Xue Xiaolu, and Guo Fan were the first to set off for the Magic City.

Actors who can find a schedule will also arrange time to go there.

Anyway, Zhu Yawen and Jiang Yiyan are no longer available.

The former is filming "Painted Skin 2", and the latter is filming a romance film with Huang Bo.

There are already photos from the film festival on the Internet. The promotional positions for Lin Nan Pictures' four films are connected together and look the most conspicuous.

Liu Yifei has been preparing for several days. She will set off with Lin Nan.

On the morning of the opening ceremony, the two of them landed at the Magic City Airport with their assistants.

“This year’s star lineup is stronger than in previous years.”

Yue Jun, who had been here for several days, came to pick him up in person.

"You can guess, so rich..."

Lin Nan laughed and complained, and Miss Liu next to her was also amused.

The Shanghai Film Festival is like this. Money is always spent on appearance, but its international influence has not increased at all. It can be called the most inferior Class A film festival.

When we arrived at the hotel, we could see at first glance that there were so many familiar faces in the industry, including many media reporters.

"Director Lin, Yifei..."

"Director Lin."

…

…

In just ten minutes, no less than fifty people greeted Lin Nan.

"The highlight is the opening and closing ceremony red carpets."

Lin Nan had no plans to walk on the red carpet of the closing ceremony. He was neither here to compete nor a guest, so there was no way he could walk on the red carpet of the closing ceremony.

He was just here to promote the movie, and the red carpet for the opening ceremony was just right.

"Shall we go to the movie promotion place?"

Liu Yifei is thinking about her "Super Body" right now.

"Well, let's go to the booth and have a look."

Guo Fan, Lu Yang, Xu Zheng and others are now in the movie promotion area.

Just a few steps away, there was another large group of acquaintances.

Gao Yuanyuan, Li Xiaoran, Liu Ye, Fan Bingbing, Qin Hailu, Jia Zhangke, Wang Xiaoshuai...

There are also many celebrities from Hong Kong and Taiwan, socializing in groups.

"Is that Xiao Ming?"

Miss Liu had a good look in her eyes, and Lin Nan also saw it.

Huang Xiaoming, who was originally supposed to be on the set of "Painted Skin 2", was talking to Chen Kaige.

As if he noticed something, Huang Xiaoming also looked here, then said a few words to Chen Kaige and walked over.

"Director Lin, Yifei, I didn't miss work.

Director Wu Ershan is filming the scenes between Yawen and Mimi today and tomorrow, so I took two days off. I also participated in "The Orphan of Zhao". "

Huang Xiaoming explained with a smile.

"I didn't say you were absent from work." Lin Nan joked.

"Come on, the exhibition areas for those movies are still inside. They are all good locations."

Huang Xiaoming led the way and walked in front.

I saw Guo Fan and others from a distance. There were many people in the surrounding circle, and they seemed to be having a great time chatting with each other.

"Director Lin, Yifei."

The four film exhibition areas are connected together, and they are all films from Lin Nan Pictures.

The imported film exhibition area next to "The Thief" is "Super Body".

The picture on the 3-meter-high poster stand is very simple, it is a promotional photo of Liu Yifei.

The background is the endless starry sky, her eyes are indifferent, without a trace of human emotion...

On one side of the sign is the slogan: "Super Body" - from human to divine.

Liu Yifei had already walked to her promotional poster and waved to Lin Nan. The latter understood what she meant.

As soon as Lin Nan stood over, the reporters couldn't wait to press the shutter.

"Remember to send a copy to my company later." Lin Nan told a reporter from Sina.

"No problem, Director Lin."

…

On the red carpet of the opening ceremony in the evening, Lin Nan planned for everyone to walk together and not be separated.

It's just that Xue Xiaolu has to walk twice, and she, Jet Li and Wen Zhang also have to walk on the red carpet once.

Walking around the movie exhibition area, Lin Nan saw six character posters from "Warring States".

Not to mention, Jing Tian's appearance in armor and holding a long sword is quite good-looking, and he has a heroic appearance.

…

Throughout the afternoon, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei accepted interviews from many reporters, and the main content was about movies.

Lu Yang and the others had already experienced this kind of media bombardment a few days ago.

Fan Bingbing came to ask if she wanted to go on the red carpet with her to represent the crew of "Thieves".

But Lin Nan refused.

Most of the actors didn't come, and it seemed a bit awkward to bring Fan Bingbing along.

…

The red carpet is the battlefield for female stars.

Today, Liu Yifei chose a pure white evening dress and paired it with Lin Nan's black suit, which was just right.

"Let's go."

Liu Yifei dragged Lin Nan out of the room.

Guo Ban and the others were also in neat suits and had been waiting in the lobby for a long time.

"A talented man and a beautiful woman!"

"A perfect match!"

…

"Director Xue's "Ocean Paradise" is relatively early, and he will join us later."

Guo Fan said something.

In the red carpet waiting area, Lin Nan and his group attracted the most attention.

Although there are only five people, they represent five movies.

Liu Yifei is the only actress, the other four are directors, and the lineup is extremely luxurious.

The red carpet begins.

The actresses really adhere to one principle: strive for beauty and beauty.

Fan Bingbing looked extremely seductive in a bright red dress and high ponytail.

Li Bingbing's silver close-fitting evening dress is full of femininity...

Zhong Xintong, Zhang Baizhi, Zhang Jingchu...

Gong Li's black tube top evening dress has a breathtaking aura that no one can match.

Many foreign actresses are even more open-minded.

…

Lin Nan stopped looking because her waist hurt a little.

…

"Director Lin, it's our turn."

Not long after Xue Xiaolu returned to the team, it was Lin Nan's turn, and they were the last lineup to appear.

The six people stepped onto the red carpet, and the media was instantly agitated.

"Now on the red carpet are Director Lin Nan, Liu Yifei, Director Guo Fan, Director Lu Yang...

Movies "Thieves", "Super Body", "Xiu Chun Dao"..."

Five directors, one actor, and five movies, this is the most powerful combination on the red carpet tonight.

"Director Lin, "Unfortunately" will be released this month. What are your expectations for the box office of this movie?"

The red carpet host got right to the point right away.

"You have to ask Director Xu. After all, I only provided the script."

"Of course I hope the more the better, preferably 100 million, haha..."

Xu Zheng said jokingly, just think of it as one more gimmick to promote the movie.

This answer sounded like a joke to the ears of the media, and no one took it seriously.

Several films have been asked about it.

Come to "Super Body".

Now everyone in the industry knows that Liu Yifei's movie with a heroine is written by Lin Nan.

"I hope it will surprise me and everyone. As for the results, we will know next month."

"Thieves" was the last one to be asked about, because the director is Lin Nan, and so far, he still has the record of domestic films.

"This is the first time I have used so many leading actors in this movie. As for the box office..."

"I hope it will set a new box office record."

As soon as Lin Nan said these words, the media around the red carpet became excited.

Several major mainland directors have new films this year. Is this considered an exaggeration by Lin Nan?

All the reporters had thought about it. Regardless of whether it was considered a lie or not, they would write that Lin Nan had lied to several other big directors!
