That year Huayu

The seventh day of the Lunar New Year, the 14th, is not only the Spring Festival period, but also Valentine's Day.

Because the entire network is dominated by the box office information of several commercial blockbusters such as "The Mermaid", few people noticed that the two movies "Murder Like Water Years" and "Run for Love" also officially started to be released today;

The former is starred by Yang Ying and Ruan Jingtian, with Re Yizha, Hao Lei and others as supporting roles, while the latter is starred by Zhang Ziyi, Peng Yuyan, Zhou Dongyu and others.

However, everyone in the circle can see that these two movies will definitely not have good results;

It's like a group of tigers fighting during the Spring Festival period, and suddenly two huskies sneak in. Where can they run away if they don't die?

Lin Nan and Liu Yifei also didn't pay much attention to the relevant information of the two movies. At this moment, the two were entertaining Jing Tian.

Miss Liu was full of smiles and was very enthusiastic. She was completely like the hostess after a guest came to her house, and her aura was very stable.

And Lin Nan stood by and watched and smiled, because... there was really nothing to say.

"Before I came back, Uncle Lu suggested that I treat Brother Lin and Sister Yifei to a meal; but after thinking about it, I still think it's better to come to pay New Year's greetings.

Well, I don't know what to bring. After asking others, I took the initiative to bring some food and a few bottles of wine. Uncle can keep them and eat them slowly."

Jing Tian sat there, raised her head, and looked very honest, like a good girl.

"It's good. When I visited other people's homes before, I didn't know what to bring. My mother helped to prepare it."

Liu Yifei also smiled generously and wanted to keep Jing Tian for lunch.

"Lin Nan, come here. You two girls are chatting, don't worry..."

At this time, Old Lin shouted from a distance.

Director Lin went to the front in three or two steps, leaving Liu Yifei and Jing Tian to continue talking in the courtyard behind.

As soon as he arrived, Old Lin pulled Lin Nan mysteriously and whispered: "The wine this woman brought is better than the one sent by Xiying! What does it have to do with you two?"

Lin Nan smacked his lips and paused for two seconds before speaking: "You keep it for yourself. She is similar to Shu Chang."

"Oh, I know it. What kind of best friend is she? She is very nice."

Well, Lin Nan did not deny it. Best friends are best friends. There is no difference. They are all treated as sisters.

For lunch, Jing Tian really stayed.

Lin Nan found that Liu Yifei seemed to have switched states. It has been many years since she has seen her show such a strong social ability. Not to mention, it made Lin Nan reminisce.

At the dinner table, Jing Tian was asked about her next work schedule. Her schedule was very similar to that of Lin Nan and the others. They all went back to the capital in the next two days and flew to Hollywood after a few days of rest.

But she left with Zhang Yimou, and the specific time has not been determined yet.

…

Afternoon, capital, Lin Nan Pictures

Everyone in the company has ended the Spring Festival holiday and entered the working state.

At this moment, Yue Jun is answering a call from Ying Huang. "Ip Man 4" is about to start filming.

"Although Director Lin will be back tomorrow, it is unlikely that Fei Mo will attend the opening ceremony; he and Yi Fei still have to prepare for the subsequent schedule, so they have to conserve their energy."

Hearing this answer, Huo Wenxi was obviously a little disappointed, but he did not give up. After all, Lin Nan Pictures is one of the producers, and its recent popularity is even stronger than before.

"What about Director Yue and Director Jiang?"

Yue Jun couldn't help laughing when he heard this: "Director Huo may be disappointed. I am too busy to leave, and Director Jiang has already left Beijing to prepare for the crew."

Well, Huo Wenxi really has no choice now and can only give up.

"It's such a pity. OK, I'll report to Director Yang and won't bother Director Yue."

"Okay, see you next time."

After hanging up the phone, Yue Jun looked at the assistant in front of him, "What's wrong?"

"Director Yue, the Huabiao Awards has just announced the schedule for the event, which is scheduled for June 24th..."

...

China Film.

A group of people sat together and La Peikang seemed extremely excited.

Because the box office performance of "The Mermaid" is not inferior to that of "Detective Chinatown" in its first week of release; what this means is self-evident, and everyone present understands.

"Director La, do you mean that we can submit the extension key application now?"

For more than six days, Zhou Xingchi has been like taking drugs, always in an excited state.

"Well, the bureau just changed its policy last month. If we apply for an extension now, there will basically be no accidents."

"Then let's do it for one month. But I guess the two movies "The Man from Macau 3" and "The Legend of the White Skeleton Demon" should also try to apply for an extension;

After all, everyone can see that this Spring Festival period has exploded, and the film market has more than doubled. No one doesn't want to eat more meat!

As for whether the bureau will approve the extension of the second movie, it depends on the result. If approved, it will continue to be the opponent of "The Mermaid." Ren Zhonglun nodded and said.

Shanghai Film also held a meeting these two days. Everyone believes that starting from this year, the Chinese-language film market will completely embark on a path of wild growth.

This is undoubtedly a great thing for the entire industry!

"Then apply for a month first." La Peikang made the final decision.

...

On the morning of the 15th, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei did not sleep in.

At eight o'clock, Lin Nan alone moved his and Liu Yifei's suitcases into the trunk of the brand new Mercedes-Benz SUV.

Although Lao Lin was used to driving a jeep, he liked this car very much because it was bought by his daughter-in-law.

"Have you packed? Then get in the car quickly."

Looking at the two people who came out wearing the same orange down jacket, Lao Lin asked and urged with a smile on his face.

"Okay, Dad."

Lin Nan opened the back door and let Liu Yifei get in first, and then he went to the co-pilot.

A few minutes later, the Mercedes-Benz SUV went straight to the next international airport.

Yesterday was the last day of the first week of the Spring Festival. "The Mermaid" was directly pumped up, breaking its own first-day and single-day domestic film box office record of 271 million.

The new record is now 315 million, which really shocked the entire production industry.

The daily box office of "The Man from Macau 3" and "The Monkey King 3" dropped to 89 million and 100 million respectively.

As for "Detective Chinatown", it was 8 million.

The imported movie "Kung Fu Panda 3" has already stopped at 850 million, and it is gone.

So far, after a full week of release, "The Mermaid" has taken 1.819 billion, "The Man from Macau 3" and "Three Strikes on the White Bone Demon" have taken 791 million and 768 million respectively.

As for Ning Hao's "Nian Beast Battle", it was really miserable, stopping at 30.11 million and being withdrawn; it was really a one-week tour, and it must be a blood loss!

And "Run for Love" and "Murder Like Water Years" that premiered yesterday, took 36 million and 9.32 million;

But a large number of industry insiders analyzed that the box office of these two movies is only worth watching on the first day, because the movies are really rubbish, and from the second day on, it is definitely an avalanche!

At half past nine, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei wrapped themselves tightly, and the two waved to Old Lin, and after a long time, they walked into the airport waiting hall, looking back every few steps.

Until he could no longer see his son and daughter-in-law, Old Lin blew on his hands, rubbing his hands and sitting in the driver's seat, ready to go home.

Huayi.

Wang Zhongjun sat in his office chair, tapping his fingers on the desk, and he was faintly trembling with excitement;

Opposite him sat Wang Zhonglei, who was also a little excited.

"It's the 8th today, and everyone who should go to work has gone to work. What about Ye Ning?"

"His annual leave ended yesterday afternoon, so he should have just entered Wanda headquarters now, right?

According to Wanda's personnel system, any employee, including senior executives, will take effect immediately and automatically enter the resignation procedure as long as they submit their resignation, which will be completed in a maximum of three days."

"Three days? Then three days, at the end of this month, we..."

"Okay, big brother."

Near noon, Ye Ning walked out of Wanda headquarters.

Faced with the retention of many old colleagues and the vice president of human resources, he submitted his resignation without hesitation and decisively.

As for the big boss, he is not in China at the moment. I heard that he is leading a team to discuss acquisitions abroad. Wanda is really in its heyday.

Looking up, Ye Ning stared at the headquarters building, the group where he had worked for more than ten years, for a few seconds, and then got into the car resolutely.

"Go back, the group should issue an announcement in three days."

...

After leaving the airport, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei were caught.

It would be fine if you asked the two people whether they had fun in their hometown, but it was a bit too much to ask Lin Nan about the current box office status of "Detective Chinatown" which was just one step away from success and would leave a lot of regrets.

What could Lin Nan say? Before he could say anything, Liu Yifei snatched it away: "We don't care about those regrets. It's good now and we are very satisfied."

Well, Miss Liu answered very well and generously!

After getting rid of a group of media reporters, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei got on the RV that Hongxingwu came to pick them up at the airport;

In less than half an hour, the news that they returned to Beijing appeared on the hot search and also spread in the circle.

It's said that artists like RVs because they have large space. Lin Nan and Liu Yifei sat face to face, looking at the scenery outside the window.

Suddenly, Miss Liu raised her eyebrows at Director Lin and called softly: "Brother Lin, let's have lunch at home, you cook."

"This Lin, no, this Sister Liu, it's a pity that you don't play Daiyu."

Lin Nan stretched out his hand and pinched Liu Yifei's cheek, teasing with a smile, and then she bit him.

"Hehe, I'm just learning. Our dad really treats Jing Tian as a prostitute. Yesterday he sent so much homemade beef jerky."

"We brought back more! I didn't realize that you still..."

"What else can I do?" Liu Yifei's beautiful eyes narrowed slightly, and Lin Nan immediately felt murderous.

"Nothing, maybe I ate too well these days, and I'm a little indigestible. Let's have something sour at noon, do you want to join, Sister Xixi?"

"Humph, I don't eat sour food, I'll cook you and eat it!"

As she spoke, Liu Yifei was amused by herself, and she was grinding her teeth?

"Hmm, phone call?"

The ambiguous atmosphere was destroyed by a phone call.

After Liu Yifei answered the call, she said unhappily: "Why are you calling when you are not in the crew preparing well?"

"Xixi, are you angry? So fierce?" Shu Chang is indeed a true girlfriend.

"Yes, tell me, what's the matter."

Glancing at Lin Nan, Miss Liu's tone instantly became much gentler.

"You really don't want to come and see me? I haven't filmed a TV series for a long time, I will be very tired..."

...

While Lin Nan and Liu Yifei were teasing Shu Chang, Chen Hong at Shengkai Film and Television also saw the news that the two of them had returned.

"It's been 40 days since the script was submitted. It was delayed for two weeks at most because of the Spring Festival. If nothing goes wrong, it should be available by the middle of next month."

Chen Hong analyzed the approximate time issue with Chen Kaige, who nodded in approval.

"Then how will the casting be done this time?"

"Just notify the industry, it's a recommendation and invitation system, ordinary actors and amateurs will not be considered."

Chen Kaige said seriously, he is also not a director who likes to use amateurs, and he made an exception last time for "The Taoist Goes Down the Mountain". He attaches great importance to this movie and will not waste energy on newcomers and ordinary actors.

"Okay, I'll invite them when the time comes."
