That year Huayu

The atmosphere at the venue was a bit weird.

The leaders were nodding and thinking about something.

The other directors did not expect Lin Nan to be so bold as to say this, as expected of a young man.

Several big directors looked at Lin Nan with smiles on their faces, while some of the elders in the association lost their composure.

The roll call speech continued. Lin Nan sat there, thinking that what he should have just said was tactful, right?

"Do you really dare to say, Golden Rooster at the end of the year, will you still be able to play "Into the Dust"?"

Ning Hao came over and said something.

This reminded Lin Nan, "Go, why don't you go? I already got the Silver Bear, shouldn't it be the people in the Golden Rooster Jury who are in trouble?"

Ning Hao thought about it for a moment and said, "You are the only one who has the Silver Bear and your age to be so confident."

"Stop talking and listen to others." Lin Nan interrupted Ning Hao.

Being young does have advantages. If you tell the truth, the consequences will not be too serious.

At noon, we settle down in the canteen here, or it is the government canteen. There are cuisines from all over the world, and the taste and style are no worse than those in other hotels. You can get whatever you want. I heard that the cooks are all prepared.

At the end of the afternoon, Wang Xiaoshuai came over specially to chat with Lin Nan. "Green Red" will be released in China in early June. Learning from the lessons of "Peacock", Wang Xiaoshuai was going to hold a premiere and invited the two of them to attend.

"no problem."

"Goodbye, directors." Gao Yuanyuan waved proactively.

After the others walked away, Ning Hao sighed, "I also really want to shoot this kind of subject."

Ning Hao's old habit happened again.

"Don't look, Zhou Zhiruo is gone." Lin Nan deliberately led him astray.

"Anyone who has seen it, don't tell nonsense. I just expressed my feelings. Dramas and realistic films still have to go the route of winning film festival awards."

Mr. Han chased after me from a distance, "You boy, you are so loud today. You dare to say anything."

"Mr. Han, I'm not wrong. Look at those old judges. Some of them are actually making movies. They are all so old and they are still occupying their positions..."

"Okay, okay, given this situation, we have to give the seniors some steps. Changes will definitely happen, and we have to take our time."

I'm afraid I have to wait for many years, Lin Nan complained silently in his heart.

At this time, people from Shanghai Film Academy came over, "Mr. Han, Director Lin, Director Ning."

"Director Lin, why don't you take some time to go to the film festival? Mr. Ren asked me to tell you this. After all, we are the host of Shanghai Film Festival..."

"Magic City Film Festival?"

Han Sanping was stunned for a moment and then came to his senses.

"I don't have any works, so why go there? Didn't Ning Hao already agree to take someone with him?"

Ning Hao was silent on the side. Although he was the director of "Stone", it was obvious that others cared about whether Lin Nan could be present.

"If I don't go, I won't go. Lin Nan has to prepare for the release of "Into the Dust" in the next few days next month."

At this time, Han Sanping came out and said something to relieve Lin Nan.

China Film Group was responsible for the promotion of "Into the Dust" and it was Han Sanping who negotiated the deal in Berlin. Naturally, he wanted Lin Nan to concentrate on it.

"Yes, I'm really sorry. You heard me. I really have work arrangements."

Lin Nan took the opportunity to follow.

The film festival from the 11th to the 19th, to be honest, would not affect the promotion of "Into the Dust", but Han Sanping helped him find a reason, and he just used it.

The people at Shangying had no choice but to leave.

"Old Ren should feel bad because he didn't even go with you, hahaha." Han Sanping said with a smile.

"You can tell by looking at this year's lineup of judges and entries. I went purely to set up a stage for others."

Lin Nan still didn't say anything. It was said to be an international film festival, but the scale was really not big. He didn't want to carry someone else's sedan chair. If next year, he might consider going there.

Many participants left one after another. Ning Hao returned to the studio and took Lin Nan back to school.

"Can't you just buy a car?"

Ning Hao complained all the way that he had never seen Lin Nan with such a master mentality, not buying a house or a car.

"When I get a wife, I'll use hers." Lin Nan said glibly.

"You can pull this off. You don't even have a girlfriend. To give her back a wife is too shameless."

Ning Hao had an expression of disbelief.

…

In March, "The Best in the World", which was supervised, written and produced by Wang Jing, was launched. The ratings were very high. Everyone lamented that Wang Jing was worthy of being Wang Jing. He was good at making movies and TV series.

In the past two days, "Little Fish and Flowers" directed by Wang Jing has been launched, and even more people are following it. Nicholas Tse, Zhang Weijian, Yuan Quan, Fan Bingbing... Just looking at the lineup makes the audience full of expectations.

Film school students also follow dramas. Lin Nan heard many girls talking about 99-level Yang Xue with envy in their words. That was Jiang Yuyan, the anti-heroine throughout the whole drama. There are some in the drama. People like Fan Bingbing and Yuan Quan are all supporting roles.

According to Liu Yifei, Liu's mother and the others are contacting people from Sony and want to produce a Mandarin album and a Japanese album together.

Lin Nan has to admit that the pop music there is indeed very good at the moment. Many singers in Hong Kong have cooperated with them. Sony's strength is also top in the industry.

"It will probably take a year. Good songs also take time to create."

Liu Yifei told Lin Nan the news from Sony.

"Are you not going to take any more dramas during this period?"

"My mother and godfather said that I won't accept TV series anymore. If there are movies, I can watch them."

Liu Yifei said and winked at Lin Nan.

"Haha, don't look at me like that. I won't be able to come up with a script that suits you for a while."

Lin Nan spread his hands.

Liu Yifei has only acted in four TV series at her age. It is difficult for her to star in suitable movies, unless she plays a supporting role. She may not be able to handle some realistic themes.

"Don't forget what you promised me."

Liu Yifei crossed her arms in front of her chest. With these words, she looked fierce.

"I will never forget it. When the time comes, I will definitely ask you to play the leading role." Lin Nan said with a smile.

"That's pretty much it."

…

On June 2nd, Lin Nan and Ning Hao were invited to attend the domestic premiere of "Green Red".

There are many movies released every year, but few of them can achieve the ideal box office in the end, especially reality-themed dramas like "Blue Red". It only gained some confidence after winning the Grand Jury Prize. "Into the Dust" is also like this.

There is not much time left for "Green Red". Jay Chou's "Initial" is coming soon. The power of fans cannot be ignored.

There are many directors who support Wang Xiaoshuai, and many of them are immersed in dramas and realistic themes all year round. Lin Nan and Ning Hao look very awkward in it, mainly because they are not the same age. They are surrounded by people in their forties, or even older. old.

Without staying long, Lin Nan and Ning Hao left as soon as they finished.

"It's still a lively premiere of a commercial film." Ning Hao complained.

"Yeah, I'm thinking that there won't be a premiere of "Into the Dust"."

Realistic themes are generally a bit heavy, and having a banquet after watching a movie always seems out of place. It would be more appropriate if it were a commercial film.

The premiere of "Green Red" was attended by old-school media, mostly official media, and the atmosphere was quite formal, even a little dull, so Lin Nan and Ning Hao couldn't stand it.

"It's fine if you don't do it. Just do a good job in publicity. After all, it's your movie that wins the Silver Bear. Tsk tsk, it will be all profit after the release."

"Haha, yes."

Facts have proved that audiences still don't like to watch such heavy films in theaters. The box office of "Blue and Red" on the first day after its release was only a few hundred thousand.

The media has reported "Blue Red" and "Peacock" together. The two won the Jury Prize at Cannes and Berlin respectively, and the box office was surprisingly low.

The pressure is on Lin Nan. There is still nearly a month until "Into the Dust" is released. Can he get rid of the low box office curse of "Blue and Red" and "Peacock".

Han Sanping contacted Lin Nan and asked him if he wanted to make a public statement, and took the opportunity to start publicity.

Just do what you say, Lin Nan accepted the interview.

"I know that most viewers like family-friendly movies that can entertain the body and mind. Realistic themes generally cannot do this. It expresses stories in life, and there are many regrets and sufferings, but it is real and sincere, and can Most of the things that touch people's hearts are the bitterness and suffering in life..."

The manuscript provided by China Film Group was good. Lin Nan modified it a little and put it to use.

"Into the Dust" is different from "Green Red" and "Peacock". It is more bitter and difficult than the latter two. Lin Nan only hopes that he will not be scolded by then, but his reputation will not be bad.

Lionsgate is really efficient. It has only been a month and a half and "Dead Silence" is almost finished filming.

"James, you didn't lie to me, did you?"

Lin Nan asked Wen Ziren that although he was mentally prepared for this, he still couldn't believe it when he heard that the filming was about to be completed.

"Director Lin Nan, your script is very good. We didn't make any changes, and the crew shot it very smoothly. You know, as long as the prop team has no problems, this kind of film will be fast. We will make it as quickly as possible. In the later stage, when the finished film comes out, you also need to come and take a look..."

"Okay, I'll definitely be there."

According to Wen Ziren, the post-production will be concentrated in June, and it is planned to be completely completed this month.

And depending on Lionsgate’s intention, it will be released at any time after the post-production is completed. This is also the reason for contacting Lin Nan. The time to test the results is coming soon.

Ning Hao took the crew to the Magic City in advance, and everyone was looking forward to it. "Stone" has such a good reputation at the box office, so the probability of winning the award should be quite high, right?

The promotion of "Initial" is in full swing. The most popular singer Jay Chou in the past two years has teamed up with a team of Hong Kong actors to star in the movie, and there is no shortage of gimmicks.

The copyright sold in Cannes for "Blue and Red" definitely made a profit, but after the promotion of "Initial" began, the box office of the former became even more miserable, and it has only reached 2 million so far.

"'Stone' has just been released not long ago. When the time comes, 'Into the Dust' can still be used to capitalize on the former's reputation. You have an advantage over directors Xiaoshuai and Chang Wei."

China Film is already preparing for the release of "Into the Dust", so it is reasonable to use "Stone" to generate a wave of popularity.

Mr. Han is still worried about whether "Initial" will have an impact on "Into the Dust". China Film's promotional expenses are divided from the box office revenue.

"No, there is a gap of twelve days. The focus of their promotion is Jay Chou, but no matter how many fans there are, they can't support the box office forever. The box office should be almost there before July."
