That year Huayu

The next morning, the entire film and television industry paid attention to the announcement issued by Hong Kong Anle Pictures.

After procrastinating for three and a half months, I finally couldn’t procrastinate any longer.

"According to relevant documents and policies, the company decided to re-shoot the fantasy film "Monster Hunt" starring the evil artist Ke Mou.

Actor Jing Boran will serve as the male protagonist and complete the filming of all real-life scenes... It is expected that the film will be available in theaters and meet the audience within this year. "

Although this news comes unexpectedly, the industry has actually been mentally prepared for it.

After all, something happened to the male protagonist, and it can’t be solved by deleting scenes;

And for a movie with an investment of two to three billion, it is impossible to give up. We can only bite the bullet and change the angle and reshoot it.

But the actor's salary cost will inevitably double, and the pressure to repay the money will instantly increase!

Many companies and countless artists in the industry are a little envious, because this "Monster Hunt" has become the cake of the "Huayi Series", and both the male and female protagonists have been included in the bag.

In the eyes of colleagues, Anle Pictures seems to have been taken advantage of this time.

"It's the 27th, right? Well, yes, I will be there on time. I haven't congratulated Mr. Wang yet. Huayi's market value is about to exceed 70 billion."

Lin Nan said a rare compliment, which made Wang Zhonglei a little uncomfortable. He paused for a second before speaking:

"Same congratulations. Doesn't Director Lin also have 6 million shares of the group in his hand? He will distribute some more this time."

"Then I'm looking forward to the day of the shareholders' meeting."

"Director Lin can reconsider the previous proposal. Huayi is the largest listed company in the film and television industry, and it is expected to reach 100 billion... If I really have to leave, I can pack it up and buy it..."

"No, I don't like giving discounts to others."

Lin Nan refused directly, leaving the other party stuck.

"That's okay, I won't bother you."

The other end of the phone suddenly became more "cold" and lost the enthusiasm just now.

After ending the call, Lin Nan couldn't help but reveal a contemptuous smile on his face.

This guy Wang Zhonglei still wants to take advantage? Isn’t this a daydream?

"This is the last time I attend Huayi's shareholders' meeting. In a few months, we can say goodbye completely.

Is there still hope for 100 billion? hehe. Is it possible to make 100 billion by relying on real estate and finance businesses?

You have never remembered that when Huayi was listed, it was listed in the film and television cultural industry! Or, were you just pretending to be confused because you understood? "

Looking at the market value and stock price of Huayi Online, Lin Nan couldn't help but murmur in his heart. The original "deal" with Huayi was really not a loss, and the profit was dozens of times!

But thinking about Yue Jun's call yesterday afternoon, Lin Nan had a headache again.

"I'd better wait for him to call me. Without one permanent guest, there will definitely be a lot of people in the circle vying for it..."

…

Just a few days after returning from Hollywood, I had to make arrangements for my trip to Berlin.

Liu Yifei even paid more attention to this trip to Berlin than Lin Nan. She even took the initiative to ask when it was leaving so that she could let someone inform the brand.

Director Lin Da originally thought she was concerned about the two of them flying to Paris during the Berlin Film Festival.

But the answer I heard was a very sweet one.

“Going to Paris is something you, the soon-to-be son-in-law, should take the initiative to worry about.

As for my concern about going to the film festival? Who told you not to take me with you the first two times you went to Berlin to attend film festivals to win awards? "

Liu Yifei sat there, raising her chin slightly, raising her eyebrows at Lin Nan, and then charged him with a "crime"!

"Sissi, you are the conscience of heaven and earth! When I won the Silver Bear Award for Best Director for the first time, you were on the set of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" and we had not yet established our relationship;

When you won the Silver Bear Award for Best Director for the second time, you were training in a martial arts school to prepare for the launch of "The King of Kung Fu". What do you mean I won't take you? "

Lin Nan smiled and shouted that he was wronged, it was so wronged.

"Humph, I don't care. In short, the fact is that I was not there and you didn't take me with you."

Miss Liu looked at Lin Nan with a playful expression of "I'm not going to reason with you." Her meaning was very clear. This time I went to Berlin with you in a "special capacity"!

How could Lin Nan not see Liu Yifei's arrogant little thoughts? He couldn't help but laugh and quickly nodded his confession:

"Yeah, blame me. I went to the Berlin International Film Festival for the third time to compete, and I only thought of bringing you, my girlfriend and fiancée. This time, Producer Liu came to the rescue, so I decided not to be a Silver Bear."

"You've passed the test, hehe..."

Miss Liu's shrewd energy has passed, and a naive smile appears on her face again, she can switch easily.

"Then book the flight on the 2nd? Sissi."

"good."

…

The film industry has missed Han Sanping for more than 15 months.

Whenever an imported blockbuster is to be released on a big schedule in the mainland, everyone misses this "mountain eagle" who was once scolded behind his back by most of his colleagues in the industry.

It's a pity, no matter how much I miss it, it's useless. The person in charge now is La Peikang.

In January during the Lunar New Year holiday, the first imported blockbuster to be released was "The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies."

When the entire crew of this film came to China to attend the film press conference and showed great importance to it, more than half of the audience was already conquered.

You don’t need to think about the box office, it will definitely not be bad. As for the producers of domestic films, they can only feel angry, speechless and helpless!

In the afternoon, when Lin Nan went out for an appointment, Yue Jun was also meeting with Lei Jiayin at the company.

On this floor of Shanhai Media, only a few artists and their logistics teams usually come.

At this time, Lei Jiayin was sitting slightly awkwardly in the office, next to his agent, and across from him was Yue Jun, who was in charge of the entire Shanhai Media business.

"Director Yue, are you discussing my contract today?"

Lei Jiayin asked knowingly, but he had to ask knowingly. Because he was actually very nervous inside, and he just used this to cover it up.

"Well, that's right, your contract only has two months left. I won't beat around the bush..."

Both the manager and Lei Jiayin looked at Yue Jun, their hearts beating.

“There are three development models for actors and actresses in the film and television industry.

The first is to be a pure actor and sign with a film and television company or an agency;

Second, open a studio or company and work alone, like Zhu Yawen, Shu Chang, and Yang Mi;

Third, the company supports artists to open studios under the company’s name. Of course, in this model, the two parties have a cooperative relationship, and the company has to hold shares. "

After Yue Jun finished speaking, he looked at Lei Jiayin.

The latter had a vague suspicion in his mind that the company didn't want him to choose the first option, or in other words, the company didn't want to renew the contract and asked him to choose between the latter two!

"You also know the current environment. Film remuneration is constantly rising...you will earn more..."

Listening to what Yue Jun added, Lei Jiayin's mind was spinning rapidly. Has the company made up its mind and wants him to start his own business? !

"Director Yue, will they take this step after their contracts expire?"

"Yeah. Director Lin said that he doesn't even rule out discussing this matter in advance."

Hearing this, Lei Jiayin swallowed.

Choosing the second option, that is, you are your own boss, is the most profitable of the three options. But the third kind...

"Director Yue, I've thought about it..."

"Okay, let's do this. Director Lin's words should be kept secret from the other people."

"Director Yue, I understand."

…………

Not to mention, Wang Baoqiang looks quite the same when he wears black-rimmed glasses.

Lin Nan went to Wang Baoqiang's appointment, and the latter invited him to have afternoon tea; as for what was going on, he knew what was going on.

"Tell me about it. Yue Jun called me, but he just briefly told me about you."

Wang Baoqiang was a little embarrassed, but he still spoke.

"Director Lin, the company received other announcements for me before, which conflicted with the recording of the second season of "Running Man"..."

""Running Man" is recorded and broadcast at the same time. If there is still a conflict, then it seems that you are very busy with another announcement?"

Lin Nan analyzed, and then added: "It's okay, an actor with pursuits really shouldn't stay in variety shows."

He still admires Wang Baoqiang, an actor with a grassroots background, who is also a good person.

Wang Baoqiang's expression was a little embarrassed:

"Director Lin, actually, there is actually a variety show over there. It is a variety show with a military flavor, and troops are involved. Food, accommodation, and recording are all in the troops, and you are not allowed to leave during the period.

I will join the army at the beginning of February and will not be released until the end of March... I can’t say the name of the variety show, I signed a confidentiality contract... and the second season of "Running Man" is scheduled to start recording in early March..."

Lin Nan was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

With Wang Baoqiang's character, he would indeed prefer this kind of "tough guy" style variety show. After all, his famous work is "Soldier Assault".

Lin Nan knew better than to force this kind of thing, "Okay, I respect your choice. It's just that we have to find someone to replace you within a month and a half."

Suddenly, Director Lin remembered another serious matter, "Are you still on schedule after the variety show recording ends?"

For a moment, Wang Baoqiang's eyes widened, and his tone was quite excited: "Are you, are you, Director Lin?"

"There is a movie that may start filming in April. I need a leading actor, haha..."

"I, I, no problem, you are here when you call. Even if there is another contract, I will terminate the contract immediately and pay liquidated damages..."

"Well, let's wait until you come back at the end of March and come to the company to discuss it."

"Don't worry, it's absolutely fine. Thank you, Director Lin, thank you..."

…………

At the end of August last year, Wanda announced that it would release "One Step Away" produced by Yi Lehu Pictures with a guaranteed box office of 1 billion yuan.

LeTV Pictures decisively withdrew "Rogue Detective" from the Lunar New Year schedule on December 18, and rescheduled it to January 16.

The purpose of this move is very clear, which is to avoid "One Step Away", which will definitely receive special attention from Wanda Cinemas in the film schedule.

But now, I have indeed avoided "One Step Away", but I am not living up to expectations, and I have to rush to the street when I should. 4.86 million on the first day, which is extremely bad.

First, "One Step Away" and then "Rogue Detective", two movies that were favored by "big data", both failed, which caused great confusion in the industry.

Sometimes, I have to admire the people on the Internet. After some analysis on the Internet, they came to a conclusion for everyone:

"Big Data" has done everything it needs to do, and what if the movie still sucks? That is entirely a problem of the director and the script, and a problem of "software". The hardware of "big data" does not take the blame!

Not to mention, this view is really convincing! Many people in the industry think it makes sense. "One Step Away" was made by Jiang Wenpiao, and "Rogue Detective" was caused by a problem with the director's quality...

Lin Nan, who was looking at the film and television information, felt that the industry was probably hopeless, because everyone had already begun to convince themselves? !
