That year Huayu

"Co-produced by Xinghui, China Film, Shanghai Film, and Lin Nan Pictures, and directed by Zhou Xingchi, the science fiction comedy romance movie "Mermaid" has officially been released."

"After three years, following "Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons," director Zhou Xingchi's film will once again compete for the Spring Festival, and will be released on February 8."

"Two years have passed since the box office share dispute between Zhou Xingchi and Huayi. Can the former use "Mermaid" to strongly counterattack derogatory and humiliating remarks such as 'layman' and 'judges know more about movies than him'? Let's wait and see."

"According to data from the Stock Exchange, Zhao Wei recently reduced his holdings of Alibaba Pictures shares at a high level and cashed out 1 billion..."

…

Lin Nan did not participate in the negotiation for the schedule of "Mermaid". This release time was unilaterally set by Xinghui and notified to several producers.

Facts have proved that Zhou Xingchi must be holding his breath in his heart. After all, he is not a clay figure.

What's more, he was cheated out of money by Hua Yi, and was later severely humiliated by Wang Zhonglei in front of the entire media.

Lin Nan moved his eyes away from the news page and continued working on his own shots.

At this time, Yue Jun entered the office.

"I feel a little sympathy for director Wang Xiaoshuai. I heard that the film schedule of his "Intruder" has not been higher than 2% since the first day it was released.

After I sent out a statement yesterday asking fans to support and denounce the theater chain's "murder", today's film schedule rate was directly cut to 0.5%! "

Hearing this, Lin Nan couldn't help but raise his head, a little surprised:

"It's a bit like that. Normally, 8% to 10% is not too much. Director Wang is also an internationally renowned director, and this film even competed for the Golden Lion Award last year."

"Director Lin, the development of the industry is a little different now than before." Yue Junyi pointed out.

"you are right?"

Lin Nan put down the pencil in his hand, smiled, and looked at Yue Jun with interest.

"In the past, the output of movies was not high, especially movies by big directors. They had appeal and influence and could control the downstream theaters. Just like directors Zhang Weiping and Zhang Yimou.

But the industry has developed very fast in the past few years. The number of theaters and film output have skyrocketed every year. Even bad movies can make money! Therefore, theater chains, which were originally downstream of the industry, have begun to move in the opposite direction. "

"The opposite trend?"

Lin Nan muttered and nodded, that was indeed the case.

Most production companies and ordinary directors have begun to bow down to the film schedule in front of theaters, or at least lower their posture. What happens next?

"Academies are going against the trend and starting to enter the production field. This is much easier than a production company getting involved in theaters! When the movies produced by the theaters and the movies of the production companies compete, which one's film has the advantage? Woolen cloth?"

"so?"

Lin Nan could already vaguely guess what Yue Jun was going to say. At this moment, he really wanted to send another red envelope to the teacher at the School of Management!

"Director Lin, we have to be prepared for danger in times of peace, or in other words, prepare for a rainy day."

Yue Jun finally told what he had learned from Wang Xiaoshuai's incident today. He felt it was very necessary to tell it and remind Lin Nan.

"Cinema, theater chain?"

"Yes, it's a theater."

Lin Nan was silent for a moment, then looked at Yue Jun and smiled:

"Actually, I have thought about it...but now is not the time...the theater chain is a big money maker...it should be there."

…………

Guo Jingming's "Legend of Legend" has officially announced the starring cast, which has attracted the attention of countless people in the industry, and a large number of fans online are even more enthusiastic and restless.

Fan Bingbing, Wu Yifan, Chen Xuedong, Chen Weiting, Lin Yun, Wang Yuan... This lineup is undoubtedly luxurious!

The industry also knew for the first time why Guo Jingming was able to invest in LeTV Pictures, because the latter is the producer of "Grand Trail".

This movie can be considered a typical example of a movie that has completely exploded on the Internet before filming even started.

It's just that Guo Jingming and Zhang Zhao's slogan of "striving to be comparable to "The Lord of the Rings"" instantly caused ridicule in the circle. It's really funny!

"Yang Mi took the initiative to lower the salary, which is the same as in the first film."

Walking around the Nortel campus, Lin Nan could see many students wearing bachelor's uniforms taking graduation photos in groups of twos and threes, playfully and playfully.

It used to be like this when he graduated as an undergraduate, but after graduating from graduate school, it became much more deserted because the classmates were not familiar with each other at all.

"She's pretty good at being a good person, but what about this "Grand Trail"?"

"She will make a guest appearance only after "Love in Seattle 2" is completed."

Xue Xiaolu said with a smile. She is different from other directors at Nortel in that she can use students from her own school as much as possible.

"The filming will start next month. I wish Sister Xue good luck with the filming. I'm just going to choose courses first?"

"I thought you came to me after finishing your course selection and haven't chosen your relationship yet? Then go quickly. Since last year, those students have been eagerly waiting for you!"

Xue Xiaolu couldn't help but tease Lin Nan.

Director Lin Da came to school in the morning to book elective courses. It will be opened on the school intranet in September for students to choose from.

"Well. Sister Xue, see you later."

Lin Nan smiled and waved, heading towards the school's Academic Affairs Office, not the Directing Department.

…

After finishing his business, Lin Nan didn't stay at school or go to the company, but went home directly.

He made an appointment with Liu Yifei to visit the crew of "The Great Wall" in the afternoon. The two of us took a stroll and took a look around.

"Guangguang called Hongxingwu. The box office distribution of "Wolf Warrior" will probably be at the end of this month. They will keep urging the theaters."

Seeing Lin Nan, Liu Yifei happily told the good news she had just received.

"278 million, Mrs. Liu! Have you prepared extra red envelopes for Wu Gan and Xie Nan?"

Lin Nan asked. He remembered that Liu Yifei had said before that if the movie made a profit at the box office, she would give Wu Dan and Xie Nan another red envelope.

"Yeah, no more, no less, give them the 8 million."

Liu Yifei's performance is quite impressive. You must know that on this basis, Wu Gan has already received double salary for the director and starring role!

"It's good. The motivation for him to make a sequel has been strengthened."

"This is the truth. However, I heard Xie Nan say that in Wu Gan's plan, the scale of the next movie may be a bit large, and it is not ruled out that the budget will be doubled several times."

Liu Yifei flashed her beautiful eyes and looked at Lin Nan with a smile, with a hint of showoff in her eyes.

"Whatever, just follow along. Is it possible that you can still invest all the money you made from "Wolf Warrior"?"

Lin Nan followed Liu Yifei's thoughts and said that she had made up her mind to continue to invest!

"Hehe, listen to you... I told Xie Nan the same thing."

…

At noon, Huang Shengyi was scolded and became a hot search topic.

It seems that Yang Zai's elder passed away. The media took photos of Huang Shengyi and his son wearing sackcloth and mourning at the funeral.

This matter is nothing at all in the film and television industry, but it is a big deal online.

Because for so many years, Huang Shengyi has always denied having a special relationship with Yang Zai, and has emphasized countless times that the two are just simple bosses and entertainers.

She even mentioned her criteria for choosing a spouse many times in interviews with the media and talked about her desire to find a boyfriend.

Now it's good, the yellow girl's character of telling lies has been completely destroyed in the public's mind. No wonder it can lead to such a big drama in Hollywood!

Not only that, countless netizens with great abilities also uncovered many "clues" and, after connecting them together, came to a conclusion:

In other words, this "star girl" of the year most likely rose to the top through an improper identity, which is simply awesome!

On the other hand, from the perspective of the film and television entertainment industry, starting from today, Huang Shengyi is completely done.

Even in the third-tier artist team, it is estimated that she will never be seen again. Because she has been covered with negative labels, her popularity on the Internet has disappeared.

"To be honest, this day has been doomed ever since she was instigated by Yang Zai to file a lawsuit with Zhou Xingchi."

Lin Nan parked the car outside the villa yard. He leaned on the car door and joked with Liu Yifei, who was walking over with a bag.

"There is also gossip in the group. Zhu Yawen, Luo Jin and others are gloating more than the other."

Liu Yifei rolled her eyes and complained.

"Okay, let's get in the car. Let's go to Huairou Film and Television Base. I brought my camera."

Hearing that Lin Nan had brought a camera, Liu Yifei immediately became energetic;

Although her selfie skills are not very good, she still likes to take pictures. There are only eight words for the reason: stinky and arrogant! This is what Liu Xiaoli said since childhood.

…

Zhang Yimou had invited Lin Nan several times before to visit the crew of "The Great Wall" when he was free. Lin Nan and Liu Yifei also promised that Matt Damon would visit the crew, and today they just fulfilled their contract at once.

If the crew were to shoot special effects scenes in Qingdao Oriental Film Capital, then Lin Nan and Liu Yifei would have to set off in the morning, because it would take six or seven hours to drive there.

But fortunately, the crew was filming exterior scenes at the Huairou Film and Television Base these two days, which is very close, right in the capital.

When we arrived at the place, the assistant was already waiting outside with the crew of "The Great Wall".

If the crew doesn't come out to pick them up, then Lin Nan, Liu Yifei and their assistants will have to buy tickets to get in. The most important thing is that the place is hard to find!

"Director Lin, Producer Liu." Zhang Yimou's assistant greeted.

Many cast members, tourists, and extras who came in and out looked at Lin Nan, Liu Yifei, and others from a distance, especially the actors, with fiery eyes.

"Are you working at the moment?"

"The filming for the afternoon scene has just started, and there are quite a few people from the industry who came to visit the studio today."

"Huh? Besides the two of us, who else is there?"

Lin Nan was a little curious, but she could figure it out.

After all, "The Great Wall" is the largest investment blockbuster directed by a domestic director so far, and it is a foreign language film!

There are definitely no shortage of filmmakers in the industry who are curious and ambitious.

"Director Chen Kaige..."

"Director Lin, what a coincidence."

Zhang Yimou's assistant had just announced Chen Kaige's name, but before he could say the second name, he was interrupted by a voice from afar.

Lin Nan and Liu Yifei heard the sound and looked behind them. They were people from Hong Kong. Are you here to visit "The Great Wall" too?

"Director Wang, what a coincidence. Are you here? "Macau 3" shouldn't be filming here, right?"

The visitor is none other than Wang Jing, the Hong Kong director, screenwriter, and actor most familiar to mainland audiences!

"No, we are still working on the script for "Macau 3" and will start shooting in the second half of the year. Aren't I here to visit the crew of "The Great Wall" and pick up stories by the way? Director Lin and Producer Liu together?"

Wang Jing obviously knew Zhang Yimou's assistant and had already guessed the purpose of Lin Nan and Liu Yifei's trip.

"Then let's go together. Let's go in quickly, there are more and more people watching here."

Lin Nan glanced around, tightened Liu Yifei's hand, and the two of them were about to walk in.

Wang Jing and his party hurriedly kept up. Such a large group of people walking in the Huairou Film and Television Base was extremely conspicuous and eye-catching.
