That year Huayu

This is the first time Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli have spent New Year's Eve separately.

The two phone calls lasted for nearly an hour.

Through the glass, she looked at the bustling crew in the restaurant and smiled unconsciously.

"Mom, I'm fine here. Lin Nan, Xiao Zhu and Chang Chang are with me, so you don't have to worry. We can wrap up and go back during the Spring Festival..."

After hanging up the phone, Liu Yifei walked into the restaurant reserved by the crew.

"Come and celebrate the domestic box office of "Pacific Rim", written and financed by Director Lin, exceeding 1 billion! Done!"

Zhu Yawen held up a bottle of champagne and started blowing on the bottle.

Liu Yifei sat next to Lin Nan, glanced at Zhu Yawen, and then joked with a smile: "He is too crazy."

"Let him go, tonight is supposed to be fun."

Lin Nan handed Liu Yifei a glass of red wine, "Celebrate!"

"okay."

Just one day before New Year's Eve, "Pacific Rim" has been in theaters in China for three weeks, and the box office has reached 1.03 billion.

All media outlets are rushing to report on it.

Lin Nan Pictures, China Film and Wanda, these three companies have become the envy and envy of all production companies in the industry.

On the contrary, "Those Years", which was said to be a dark horse, had a box office of 50 million, with no room for improvement.

On the other hand, "Reverse War", co-produced by Ying Huang and Huayi with an investment of 200 million, was also a mess at the box office.

After the first daily revenue of 10 million, the daily box office has continued to drop. It is estimated that by the time it is released, the total box office will be over 100 million at most!

There is also "The Magician" co-invested with Bona, and like "The War", the box office data is unexplainable.

When Yang Shoucheng was interviewed by the media, his face turned dark several times.

…

The news that Lin Nan booked a high-end restaurant in Hong Kong Island was also a headline in the entertainment news.

"Director Lin Nan spent NT$960,000 to book a luxury restaurant on Hong Kong Island, and the crew spent New Year's Eve together..."

"The domestic box office of "Pacific Rim" has reached 1.03 billion, and it is about to enter the Spring Festival season. There is only one week left in the release date!"

"The box office in the third week was 220 million, and "Pacific Rim" needs to get 170 million in the last week, otherwise there is no hope of a box office of 1.2 billion!"

"Judging from the declining box office data in the first three weeks, the 1.2 billion target of "Pacific Rim" has little hope..."

…………

After New Year’s Eve, it’s Spring Festival.

Early in the morning, Lin Nan met many actors and stars in Hong Kong.

When others come to visit, it's still on the first day of the Lunar New Year, so you definitely can't hide from them.

People we are more familiar with, like Andy Lau, Jackie Chan and others, are much more casual to chat with.

Those young actors and entertainers seemed quite reserved, but they kept smiling and constantly looking for topics to talk about. Lin Nan felt a little embarrassed...

"In Hong Kong, the Spring Festival is a rare opportunity to make connections. After all, the place is small and you can visit in person."

Liu Tianwang's wife is five months pregnant, and he won't answer announcements during this period. He has plenty of time, and now he has time to chat with Lin Nan.

"As a Golden Lion director, it's rare for you to spend the Spring Festival on Hong Kong Island. Artists that various companies can connect with are not allowed to come over and become familiar with each other?"

Lin Nan really couldn't refute this.

Throughout the morning, he met many celebrities, including Simon Yam, Huang Baiming, Wu Zhenyu, Wen Jun, Yuan Heping, Zhang Jin and his wife, Nicholas Tse, Bai Bing...

There are also many second-generation stars, and the leader is Prince Long, who was brought here personally by Jackie Chan.

There are also people who irritate Lin Nan, such as Donnie Yen, Eric Tsang...

There are also many female artists who are so thoughtful that they actually took up the idea of ​​Liu Yifei, shouting out producer Liu one after another, with nice words coming out of their mouths.

However, Miss Liu is not stupid, and her occasional naivety is only towards her own people. She is shrewd in front of outsiders.

All these purposeful flattery, Liu Yifei goes in one ear and out the other, and she doesn't take it seriously at all.

…………

On the third day of the Spring Festival, the crew returned to the filming site.

At this time, another piece of bad news came back from Hollywood.

The Oscars have announced the nominations for all awards.

In China, "Thirteen Girls" was selected to compete for the Best Foreign Language Film Award, and even a backdoor was opened for this, which attracted a lot of opposition.

Afterwards, the film's North American distributor signed up for "Thirteen Hairpins" to compete for 13 individual awards.

Now the results are out, none of the 14 awards were shortlisted, and they were all wiped out!

The domestic film and television industry was in an uproar. Zhang Yimou failed in the Olympics for the eighth time!

This means that the overseas copyright deal for "Thirteen Hairpins" is completely dead.

Suddenly, a lot of belittling and mocking voices came out.

"Facts have proved that it's time for the old people to give up their positions and stop occupying the latrine..."

"There are other excellent directors in China, such as: Director Lin Nan, Director Jiang Wen...Director Lu Chuan..."

"It's upstairs, Rikutaro, just forget about it!"

…

…

Even if Lin Nan and others are on the set, they can still feel the public opinion turmoil outside from time to time.

This time, Zhang Yimou was pushed to the forefront, just because his colleagues in the industry had accumulated grievances for too long.

"Is this really fake?"

During the break after lunch, Luo Jin ran over with today's entertainment newspaper, half excited and half excited.

"what happened again?"

Liu Yifei was lying on Lin Nan's director's chair, covered with a blanket, taking a nap, and was woken up like this.

She narrowed her eyes and shouted, her rosy face was really pretty.

"The whole page is full of tidbits about director Zhang Yimou."

Now, even Lin Nan, who was looking back at the shooting footage, became curious.

"Let me see."

Lin Nan took the newspaper. The Hong Kong side contained gossip news from the mainland.

"Good guy!"

After just one glance, Lin Nan couldn't help but be amazed!

"Director Zhang and Ms. Gong, the crew acted as if no one else was around, and they were so affectionate..."

"Late at night in 2007, International Zhang and Director Zhang were alone in the room for 48 hours..."

…

"The girl and her mentor in "The Hawthorn Tree" are in chaos, and the room is open 24 hours a day..."

"The girl Mou and Director Zhang from "The Thirteen Hairpins" spent three days and three nights in the villa..."

…

What a thrill!

Behind each title is a short composition, and the writing is very realistic.

In particular, the sequence is very clear, and the time, place, and drama are clearly written.

Liu Yifei, Shu Chang, Zhu Yawen and others gathered around, and then they were all stunned.

"This is too exciting!"

Zhu Yawen smacked her lips and sighed.

"Who can write such a 'real' thing except the people around me?" Lin Nan guessed.

Whether it is true or not, how close it is to true or false, who can really know!

"Needless to say, the Internet must be very lively. As for the entertainment industry, it is probably a mess!"

Zhang Yimou is a top-tier director, and this kind of news is aimed at ruining his reputation.

"Prepare the afternoon scenes and gossip first. It won't be too late for you to go back and take care of it in the evening."

Not only Zhu Yawen, but also other crew members started to chatter. In order not to affect the start of work for a while, Lin Nan shouted directly.

"Okay, Director Lin."

Finishing within three days was the time Lin Nan had set.

Everyone started to move after changing clothes, putting on makeup, and setting up machines.

…………

The popularity of "Pacific Rim" has taken Jing Tian's star status a big step forward.

During this period, the number of announcements, endorsements, and drama appointments sent to Starlight has increased dramatically, and Zhang Yi will certainly not be too generous.

On the second day of the Lunar New Year, Jing Tian's "The Rescuers" was released.

To be on the safe side, Jing Tian never participated in publicity except for the premiere press conference.

Facts have proved that this decision was right!

“Don’t mention this movie in front of the media anymore, and even if they ask, don’t respond.

I will communicate with the theaters and take the initiative to remove this movie. The cost is only 10 million anyway..."

Lu Zheng gave Jing Tian serious instructions.

"Pacific Rim" brought Jing Tian to a big level, and now he must not let "The Rescuers" drag him down, even a little bit.

"Uncle Lu, is it really that bad?"

Jing Tian asked reluctantly, she felt that she acted seriously.

But the box office of 750,000 on the first day was really eye-catching.

Lu Zheng couldn't help but sigh. He remembered Lin Nan's advice before.

"In the future, we still have to find reliable directors, screenwriters, and production teams..."

…

…

Zhang Ziyi has issued several announcements in succession, claiming that those who spread rumors will be held legally accountable.

Several young girls also did the same thing.

On the contrary, Gong Li was indifferent to this. After all, those days were his real past...

…

"Director Zhang, we spent a lot of money and found many connections, and finally determined that these rumors came from..."

"It's from Zhang Weiping, right?"

"Well, Director Zhang knows?"

"Haha, who else could it be besides him? Thank you Mr. Jia for me."

"Director Zhang, you're welcome. There's no need to be so outspoken. Mr. Jia said these rumors will disappear soon..."

…………

Lin Nan frowned and looked at each other with Zhu Yawen and others. They looked at Liu Yifei eating cookies and drinking milk.

According to the script, the scene of inducing vomiting in the examination room will be performed by Liu Yifei.

This silly girl is particularly yearning for this kind of ugly show, and this time she finally has the chance!

"You'd better eat less and just spit out a little bit."

Lin Nan couldn't help but remind him that he originally wanted to fake the photo, but Liu Yifei just shook her head and wanted to do it for real.

Five minutes later, Miss Liu finally stopped.

…

"Okay, everyone, prepare...action!"

According to the script, when Zhu Yawen and Liu Yifei were delivering the answers to the second and third parts of the test questions respectively, something happened.

The former stayed in the bathroom for too long and was reported.

He nervously finished his answer while the staff urged him to open the door. The moment he threw his phone into the toilet, the staff kicked open the door and took him out.

Liu Yifei, on the other hand, was rushed into the examination room by the invigilator as soon as she took out her mobile phone to send her answers because there were too many people in line for the toilet.

She had no time to hide her phone, so she had to take it out. She saw Zhu Yawen being blocked by several staff members, intimidating and interrogating...

At the entrance of the examination room, there were already many people checking the entrapment, so she could only hide her mobile phone under the water dispenser and enter the examination room.

…

Liu Yifei wrote down the answers to the third part of the test questions silently on the answer sheet of the fourth part of the test questions to avoid forgetting them soon.

She planned to send it back together with the fourth part of the test questions and the keywords of the paper after she left the examination room.

In the monitor, a close-up shot was shown of Liu Yifei. She put the pen into her throat, and after just two strokes, she spit out what she had just eaten...

Liu Yifei successfully left the examination room, took back her mobile phone and ran away. The invigilator found that the answer sheet was wrong and chased her out...

Transitioning to the station, Liu Yifei was intercepted by a group of people, and finally sent out the complete answer, stuffed her phone into a passerby's backpack, and was "invited" back...

At the same time, in the secondary scene, Liang Jiahui found Luo Jin and Shu Chang and asked about Liu Yifei's whereabouts, but they were perfunctory.

A large number of 2B pencils with answers were distributed. A group of people rushed to the examination room excitedly...

According to the plot, Zhu Yawen sacrificed herself and admitted cheating, clearing Liu Yifei of suspicion.

…

One was expelled from school and the other graduated from high school successfully.

"It's easy to make money! Let's do this from now on. We can easily make millions in one go. Anyway, if we get caught, we won't go to jail..."

Zhu Yawen smiled sinisterly and invited Liu Yifei to cheat on the Oxford entrance exam in the same way.

"If you are short of money, just take my share..."

"You refuse?"

Zhu Yawen's facial expression was ferocious.

"If you don't come with me, I will report you for cheating on the SAT, and everyone else. In the end, your father will be extremely disappointed in you..."

"I voluntarily bear the consequences of the wrong things I have done. This is what dad wants to see..."

…

After two consecutive days of filming, the last shot was of Liang Jiahui taking Liu Yifei into the SAT test center to "surrender".

"Click, shut down!"

"I declare..."

"I'll come, I'll come."

Liu Yifei interrupted Lin Nan and ran over with a smile on her face.

Lin Nan consciously handed over the trumpet in his hand, "Okay, come on."

"I announce that "Genius Gunslinger" is officially finished!"

Liu Yifei's clear and cheerful voice spread throughout the entire crew through the speakers.

"It's finished, oooh..."

…

Zhu Yawen and others took the lead, and the crew instantly became noisy. Everyone was very happy and excited.

The news of the completion of "Genius Crew" spread quickly.

"Produced by Lin Nan Pictures and Hongxingwu, directed by Director Lin Nan, produced and starring Liu Yifei, the movie "Genius Gunslinger" officially wrapped in Hong Kong Island today!"

"The director of Lin Nan Pictures, Jiang Yuerou, said that the finals banquet will be held in the capital."

…

""Pacific Rim" reported revenue of 100 million in its fourth week. 30 days after its release, the total domestic box office reached 1.15 billion. There is only one day left before release, and it missed the 1.2 billion!"

"Director Lin Nan's book-sharing bet with the theater chain ended up being just one step away from getting the 46% share ratio!"
