That year Huayu

When she got up early in the morning, Lin Nan heard that Wang Jing's "Macau Storm 2" was going to hold a launch conference in the capital in the morning.

Due to the huge pressure of public opinion in the mainland and the official attitude of tacitly banning it, Bona and Wang Jing’s team made decisive adjustments.

In the first film, some Hong Kong stars who were blatantly crooked have been eliminated, and many mainland actors have been added to this film.

The media on Hong Kong Island seem to have learned a little better in the past two years, but only a little.

Although I didn’t dare to openly refute the official ban, I was still arrogant and scolding.

It is said that the mainland market is too glass-hearted and petty, and it is always picky and picky about Hong Kong actors.

Even some Hong Kong artists are still defending the idiots who have been banned. They don't know if they are pigs or have ulterior motives.

Just before eight o'clock, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei finished washing and had breakfast.

"Let's go, let's go home."

After putting on her sunglasses and holding Lin Nan's hand, Miss Liu was about to go out.

The high ponytail swayed slightly, looking very excited.

Lin Nan was holding the phone with her other hand, half a body behind her.

"Don't forget to sign a contract with China Film Group the day after tomorrow."

"Don't worry, La Dong, I will be there on time."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Nan saw another text message from Wang Changtian.

"Running Man" will officially start recording in four days, and then we have to make an appearance and build momentum.

"'Mermaid'?" Liu Yifei raised her head slightly and asked.

She learned about Zhou Xingchi's new movie from Lin Nan two days ago, and the 90 million yuan was invested in this movie.

"Yes, that's it."

Lin Nan pretended to be in pain, "I have to regain my strength in the past two days, and take advantage of the sharp rise in Huayi's stock price to cash out some stocks."

"Hahaha, don't say it's about improving your life anymore. They are all joking now, saying that you let me control your money, saying that you are too lavish."

Looking at Lin Nan, Liu Yifei smiled and joked.

"You? Haha, you can't even take care of your own finances, yet..." Lin Nan smiled and suddenly looked into Liu Yifei's eyes teasingly.

"What's that look in your eyes?" Miss Liu was a little stupid.

"I was wondering, was someone hinting at me just now? Princess Sissi, what do you think?"

"Ah? Then you are simply overthinking, and I am planning to let you eat soft rice."

Liu Yifei raised her chin slightly and crossed her arms on her chest. She is a standard independent woman.

"Tsk, tsk, it's not easy. You are such a soft-mouthed person, but I have been waiting for you since the first time I saw you in school..."

"Yeah, stop talking."

After saying something embarrassingly, the smile on his oval face couldn't stop.

The car drove quickly towards the airport. There was not much traffic at this time and we arrived at early nine o'clock.

Tomorrow night is the closing awards night of the Shanghai International Film Festival, which is the grandest red carpet event in the end.

It is estimated that except for Lin Nan and Liu Yifei, basically no celebrities in the industry will leave the Magic City today.

Because for most stars, the red carpet of Class A film festivals is the top resource, exposure, camera, and commercial value.

Those who have film works will definitely not be absent, and those who don’t will find ways to get involved.

When some entertainment reporters saw Lin Nan and the two at the airport, they were a little emotional.

"Only Director Lin dares to play like this. He really brought Liu Yifei to participate in the forum and have fun. Oh no, he just took Liu Yifei to attend the forum by the way!"

…………

The backdoor operation was successful and Hairun, which had been restructured for nearly two months, received news in the morning that the stock had officially resumed trading and issuance.

So far, there is another listed company in the film and television industry.

When Lin Nan and Liu Yifei left the Capital Airport, they were blocked by reporters and asked about their views on the matter.

While congratulating him, he also publicly stated his attitude for the first time - Lin Nan Pictures has no plans to go public and will not go public.

Immediately afterwards, the news spread rapidly on the Internet.

A large number of companies in the industry, Internet companies and financial institutions feel it is a pity.

You know, once Lin Nan Pictures goes public, the guarantee will be another Huayi, and it will most likely be stronger.

Many people even think that Lin Nan is a bit ungrateful and too independent. He just doesn't want the big guys to take advantage of him!

"Backdoor listing, the potential is really not that good, the market value is only 2.522 billion?"

Liu Xiaoli was preparing lunch, and Liu Yifei ran back and forth, saying she was attacking, but in fact she was causing trouble.

Lin Nan was ordered to wait in the living room for dinner, and he immediately started reading the news.

Compared with Huayi's, Hairun's market value is only one-third, which is really like a joke.

However, the Deng Chao couple successfully became capital through the listing of Hairun.

After having lunch with Liu Yifei and her mother-in-law-to-be, and resting for more than an hour, Lin Nan hurried back to the company.

The filming work for "The Secret of the Dragon" is progressing very smoothly, and the start date may be advanced.

"The first-round broadcast rights were bought by Capital TV, Dragon TV, Blueberry TV, and Shandong TV, and the profits were very good."

In the office, Lin Nan took the details handed over by Yue Jun and read them carefully.

The production cost of "Red Sorghum" was as high as 120 million, mainly because Zhou Xun was very expensive. After all, she is a three-time Best Actress, so she only received 30 million.

Even though she had a good relationship with Lin Nan and offered to reduce her salary, Lin Nan couldn't really reduce her salary.

If she lowered her salary for the TV series, will she still be lowered if other big directors or big companies come to her in the future?

If it is lowered, it will affect the market quotation after the weekly news. If it is not lowered, it will offend people!

Simply speaking, one episode was paid 500,000 yuan, but Lin Nan didn't give Zhou Xun a penny last year.

"Sixty episodes, the transaction price for each episode is 1.1 million. This is the price that a recognized and influential high-quality drama like "Red Sorghum" can be sold for." Yue Jun said proudly.

"The four companies in the first round each cost 66 million. This profit is indeed not bad. How about some companies only make TV series? Although the profit is not as good as that of blockbuster movies, the risk is much smaller." Lin Nan agreed. Nodding.

"By the way, Director Lin, there are also several invitations and invitations from you."

Looking at the red wedding invitation at the top, Lin Nan couldn't help but smile, it was true.

"Let me see. My dear, at the end of November? We went together with the Golden Horse, and we were still in Taipei! There won't be any Golden Horse down here, right?"

Lin Nan admired his crow's mouth. As soon as he finished speaking, the next letter was a guest invitation letter from Golden Horse.

"Tsk, tsk, I am the "Genius Gunslinger" and have won several awards, so it still sticks to me? Let's talk about it, and I will most likely not be free.

This year, "Manchester by the Sea" will be registered for the Golden Globes and Oscars. During that time, I may go to Hollywood to stay. "

After chatting for a while, Lin Nan asked about "The Secret of Seeking the Dragon".

Wu Ershan personally led the team to go to the scene to collect scenery, and they would be back before the end of the month.

If it goes quickly, "The Secret of the Dragon" will be officially launched in July.

…

The Shanghai International Film Festival, which has been bustling for nearly ten days, has finally come to an end.

Since early in the morning, Weibo has been full of interactive photos sent by the assistants or studios of various stars.

Those who were trying on dresses, putting on makeup, and taking photos were all either beautiful or handsome, and none of them were ugly anyway!

All female celebrities are preparing carefully for the red carpet, and they must use their best skills in those two or three minutes to compete for the top spot.

Lin Nan and Liu Yifei had nothing to do at night and even watched the live broadcast.

Sure enough, in the eyes of all stars in the industry, the most important thing about the Shanghai International Film Festival is not the awards ceremony, but the closing ceremony red carpet.

"Even if Gong Li comes to serve as the chairman of the jury, he can't change the style of the Shanghai Film Festival."

After watching the award ceremony, Lin Nan sighed.

In addition to the Jury Prize, all the important awards in the main competition were won by foreign films as expected.

However, this year's Movie Channel Media Awards category is quite interesting. Completely opposite to last year's skepticism, this time everyone agreed.

Because they are two powerful actors, Li Baotian and Tao Hong, who won the Best Actor and Best Actress.

Even the Best New Director was not criticized like Guo Jingming last year, but instead received a lot of praise.

"Xiao Yang, "Oldboy: The Dragon Crosses the River"! It seems to be released next month?"

…

In the morning, La Peikang's secretary called specifically to remind him.

Lin Nan took two employees from the company and went directly to China Film.

La Peikang, Ren Zhonglun, Zhou Xingchi and Lin Nan were still the same as when they met a week ago.

It's just that this time everyone brought one or two more people because it involved contract matters.

"Has Director Zhou found all the investment?" Lin Nan asked subconsciously.

"Thank you, Director Lin, for your concern. I'll pay for part of it, and I've decided on some more."

The four people were chatting and laughing, while their subordinates were carefully checking the film investment agreement.

"Director La, Director Ren, and Director Lin, there is something I want to talk to you three about in advance."

"Director Zhou, please speak."

"In order to ensure the publicity effect of this movie, my team is preparing to conduct a two- to three-month audition to select the heroine."

Hearing Zhou Xingchi's words, La Peikang and Ren Zhonglun's eyes instantly lit up.

A few famous "girls" that people talk about in the circle are Mou Girl, Star Girl, and Dragon Girl.

These titles are undoubtedly names for newcomers.

And every time a new person is introduced, it can arouse huge discussion and attention from the outside world.

If a special audition is held for the new "Star Girl", you can imagine that the publicity effect will be sensational!

"good idea!"

"Shanghai Film Support."

"I have no opinion."

"Lin Nan, you haven't even praised a 'Lin girl', you're not doing your best!

That Jingtian, I guess half of it. Although you acted in "The Martian," the first movie to be released was the horror film "Anaconda." "

La Peikang looked at Lin Nan and joked.

Lin Nan didn't pay attention to Zhou Xingchi and replied casually:

"Didn't La Dong notice? These 'Mou Girl', 'Dragon Girl', and 'Star Girl' have all had scandals with the name in front of 'Girl'."

"Good guy, are you henpecked?!" La Peikang and Ren Zhonglun laughed.

Zhou Xingchi on the side shook his head with a smile. He had been involved in a lawsuit with "Xing Girl".

"La Dong, it's no problem."

"Director Ren, there is no problem with the contract."

"Director Lin, it's okay."

Following the reports from their subordinates, several people began to sign the contract.

China Film 25%, invested 75 million; Shanghai Film 15%, invested 45 million; Lin Nan 30%, 90 million!

"I have an idea. Do you want to hear it? It's about publicity."

After signing several contracts, Lin Nan suddenly looked up at a few people and said.

"If you have a good idea, just say it."

"Director Lin, I humbly ask for advice."

"Director Zhou has starred in many classic comedy movies. In the past, most mainland audiences watched pirated movies online or for free on TV.

And the three words "Zhou Xingchi" are also the "god" in the hearts of countless mainland movie fans! To address this, we can play the emotional card in publicity. "

After hearing Lin Nan's words, Ren Zhonglun and La Peikang both nodded after thinking.

Only Zhou Xingchi smiled sheepishly and said, "How can Director Lin be so exaggerated?"

"Can you just tell me how to use the emotional card for publicity?" La Peikang asked.

"For example, we can start online marketing from now on, and the core content is just one sentence: We all owe Zhou Xingchi a movie ticket!"

After Lin Nan finished speaking, he looked at the three of them.

La Peikang, Ren Zhonglun and Zhou Xingchi were all stunned, but their eyes were glowing green!
