That year Huayu

"Director Lin, are you looking for me?"

Zhang Yi sat on the sofa with a smile on his face.

"Yes, Yue Jun told you, right?"

"I told you that there won't be any drama appointments for me in the next two months. I will join the cast when "Pacific Rim" starts filming."

While speaking, Zhang Yi could not hide his excitement.

This is a Hollywood co-production, and it is a science fiction movie with such a large investment.

"Don't spread it out yet, lest the media fry it again." Lin Nan warned.

"Don't worry, my mouth has a zipper, haha..."

…………

"Earthquake" seems to have overdrawn the entire August movie schedule.

Even though its data can no longer run, other movies still haven't seen a rebound in the box office.

For example, "Xiu Chun Knife", which has a box office of 160 million in 20 days of release, is already the best result after "The Great Earthquake".

As for Jing Tian's "My Beautiful Boss," the box office was finally set at 52.1 million, and it exited early.

"The box office of "Earthquake" has reached 673 million, and the daily revenue is less than 80,000..."

"A new domestic movie box office record has been born, which is 673 million."

…

Some media raised a question.

"The record of "The Martian" was broken in 22 months.

How long can the record of "The Great Earthquake" be maintained? "

This kind of topic is still very attractive, and the discussion rate soared instantly.

Zhang Yimou's "The Hawthorn Tree", Xu Ke's "The Empire of Heaven", and Lin Nan's "The Thief" are all among the candidates.

What's more, I feel that Feng Xiaogang's record can only be broken by his own "If You Are the One 2".

When Lin Nan saw these posts, he thought of Chen Kaige and Jiang Wen.

I don’t know how these two people feel, but they are just excluded by netizens by default?

Hong Kong movies are also ignored by everyone and are considered to be impossible to set box office records.

"Director Lin, Director Zhang sent a screening invitation on the 31st."

The assistant's words made Lin Nan a little confused.

In his impression, Zhang Yimou's movies always have screenings or premieres just before they are released.

How could it be half a month earlier this time?

Screenings and premieres are different. The former only invites peers and professional media people, and is rarely open to the mass media.

"Are you sure it's director Zhang Yimou and not a new picture?"

Lin Nan thought about this problem.

"It should be Director Zhang. It's handwritten and signed."

"Bring it here."

Lin Nan opened it and took a look. Yes, it should have been given by Zhang Yimou.

Because the writing above was very colloquial, he and Liu Yifei were invited. Apparently he still remembers when Lin Nan went to ask about the character on behalf of Liu Yifei.

To be honest, Lin Nan didn't like Zhang Weiping, but he admired Zhang Yimou.

Ms. Liu also likes Zhang Yimou's literary films and thinks she can give them a try.

"Click for screening half a month in advance?" Lin Nan was still curious about this unusual behavior.

It wasn't until he saw the production cost of "The Hawthorn Tree" on the Internet that he suddenly realized it.

Only Zhang Yimou dares to do this!

A literary film with a production cost of 70 million, using purely new male and female protagonists.

Lin Nan estimated that it was Zhang Weiping who brought up the idea of ​​screening the film half a month in advance. The pressure to repay the money was too great, so he could only work on publicity in advance.

…………

On the second day of Liu Yifei's birthday, "Xiu Chun Knife" was successfully released.

"The movie "Xiu Chun Knife" produced by Lin Nan Pictures and directed by Lu Yang has a revenue of 168 million."

""Xiu Chun Knife" is the first theatrical film directed by Lu Yang, and he became famous in one battle!"

Nortel is very happy. Lu Yang’s information is now on the homepage of the official website, and he has taught a billionaire director.

News came back from Warner.

"Lin, they have already made a plan."

"Tell me how they arranged it." Lin Nan urged Tom.

"Your people are so efficient. They stay up most of the night and work overtime. This is very inhumane! We have been complained about many times..."

Lin Nan even wondered if he heard it wrong. This was not the answer he wanted.

"What's going on?" Lin Nan couldn't help but ask.

Tom's explanation left people speechless.

The people at China Film Group were as if they had been given a shot of chicken blood. They really didn't sleep in the middle of the night. For more than a week, I worked overtime to create dozens of Chinese-style mecha designs.

And there’s a lot of hard work.

The terracotta warriors and horses, the generals, the generals, gods and demons in the murals...

There are also outer armor, Mingguang armor, Yanyue sword, various ancient weapons...

The names chosen are also very coquettish, such as Chi You, Xing Tian...

I guess the final selection will take a long time.

"Is this going to heaven?"

It was completely different from what was deep in Lin Nan's mind, and it gave me a headache.

"Let's talk about how the time is arranged?" Lin Nan didn't want to worry about that and continued to ask.

"They plan to use 2 months to prepare, complete the shooting within 4 months, and 6 months to complete the post-production special effects!"

Lin Nan was stunned for a while after hearing this. This efficiency is really incredible. Anyway, the country will not be able to reach this level in several years.

"Okay, I understand. The latest start-up time is the end of October, right."

"Yes."

…

Not only did Lin Nan get the specific information, China Film and Wanda also got the news.

The latter two immediately announced the news to the public.

""Pacific Rim" will officially start filming by the end of October at the latest."

"The domestic shooting locations are set to be in coastal cities such as Shanghai..."

…

The crew of "Gong Lock Heart Jade".

Zeng Jia looked sad and unhappy. Five minutes before the news came out online, she had just received a call from Yue Jun.

Yang Mi was filming at the moment and didn't know about this yet.

"I missed it..."

She knows that in movies like "Pacific Rim", it doesn't matter who the actors are. The selling points are mechas, monsters, and special effects.

But this does not hinder the fact that it is a top-notch science fiction film that can bring actors a glorious resume and increase their status.

After half an hour, the crew began to take a break.

Zeng Jia took Yang Mi to the dressing room.

"What's wrong, Jiajia?"

"Mimi, the start time of "Pacific Rim" is out."

"How long? Before or after I finish filming?"

When Yang Mi heard this, her eyes widened instantly, she grabbed Zeng Jia's wrist and asked eagerly.

Before Zeng Jia could say anything, Yang Mi had already realized that Zeng Jia's face had not looked very good from the beginning.

"Mimi, listen to me, there is news outside, and the filming will be started by the end of October at the latest..."

Before she finished speaking, Yang Mi sat down on the dressing chair, her face turning pale.

""Palace"... will be finished in early November..."

At this moment, Yang Mi felt as if the sky had fallen, and her eyesight turned a little dark.

"Director Yue said that the company will find all the main actors during this period..."

Zeng Jia looked at Yang Mi's look and continued, "That's it anyway."

…………

Lin Nan took Zhang Yimou's invitation letter back.

Ms. Liu also checked her itinerary and was relieved after confirming that there was no time conflict.

"This is the first time a major director has sent me a screening invitation."

Liu Yifei said with excitement.

"I'm not asking you to act in a movie, so what?" Lin Nan teased with a smile.

"Hmph, you are the only one who talks a lot. Remember to come with me when the time comes. There are two people's names written on it."

Liu Yifei glared at Lin Nan and warned.

…

"Warring States", which started filming in early March and invested 150 million, was completed before the end of August.

Lu Zheng invited many media reporters who visited the team to attend the closing banquet.

"The filming of "Warring States" has been completed recently!"

"The post-production and special effects will be completed at Tiangong Color."

There are a lot of stills from "Warring States" appearing online. If nothing else, Jing Tian's stills are very beautiful...

"My Beautiful Boss" also helped Jing Tian gain a lot of popularity.

Immediately after the finals banquet, Lu Zheng, along with Jing Tian and several assistants, left early and returned to the capital.

…

"Director Han, the Chinese faces required for group shots, close-ups, or a small number of lines in "Pacific Rim" were all handled by China Film.

Try to find someone from a movie studio or an art troupe. You must have a good image and a strong face..."

Lin Nan came here specifically to tell Han Sanping about this.

"This is not nonsense! It represents our image and there must be no mistakes."

Han Sanping always pays special attention to matters related to his own status and political achievements.

…

As soon as he left Han Sanping's office, Lu Zheng's phone call came in.

"Director Lin, are you free?"

"Well, Mr. Lu, tell me."

"That's what I consulted Director Lin about last time. Didn't the start-up time come out?"

Lin Nan knew this was the case.

"Come to my company in the afternoon, I'm still at China Film Academy."

"Okay, we'll be there on time this afternoon."

…………

I remember the first time I met Jing Tian, ​​it was in Bad Monkey.

At that time, I just felt something, as if I saw another version of Liu Yifei.

The first time he was impressed by a girl was at the dinner table, with her authentic hometown dialect...

…

In the afternoon, the assistant brought Lu Zheng, Jing Tian, ​​and Ye Ning to Lin Nan's office.

It seems that this time, Wanda Pictures also supports Lu Zheng by default.

"Director Lin."

"Brother Lin."

…

"Sit down, congratulations on finishing."

"Thank you, Brother Lin."

Jing Tian smiled and thanked her while looking around.

I came here once during the casting of "The Martian", and the layout was completely different from the current one.

Now, there are a lot of things for girls here...

"Director Lin, the female character hasn't been decided yet, right?" Ye Ning asked with a smile.

Lin Nan glanced at the three people.

"Yifei is not interested. At Shanhai Media, one is on the TV series crew and the other is still a student, so we haven't decided yet."

Hearing Lin Nan's words, Lu Zheng's face instantly showed a smile.

"Can Tiantian give it a try? We are all our own people anyway."

Lu Zheng was straightforward, and Ye Ning nodded in agreement, "I think you can try it too."

Lin Nan looked at Jingtian.

"Do you think you can do it?"

Jing Tian was stunned for a moment, looked at Lin Nan, and bit his lip, "Brother Lin, I, I will try my best to do my best."
