That year Huayu

On the morning of the 31st, Lin Nan and his party walked out of the Capital Airport.

The reporters who were waiting for the news swarmed up and surrounded the group of people.

"Director Lin, when is "Genius Gunslinger" expected to be released to the audience?"

"How's Passengers going?"

"Yifei, what do you think about the conflict between Liu Shishi and Yang Mi?"

"Director Zhang Yimou has been involved in bad luck and scandals recently. Has Director Lin paid attention to it?"

…

These media outlets threw all the hot topics during this period to Lin Nan and the others.

"If nothing else goes wrong, "The Gunslinger" will be released during the Lunar New Year holiday at the end of the year; "Passengers" is in the process of special effects production and should be released soon.

As for the rivalry between actresses, you don’t need to ask Yifei, just compare their film and television works and net worth; as for Director Zhang’s matter, I don’t pay much attention..."

Lin Nan didn't let Liu Yifei answer. No matter what she said, these reporters might twist it into gossip.

There will even be reports about who Liu Yifei is targeting and belittling. Anyway, it is most likely to be written in a way that attracts attention. After all, Ms. Liu was also famous for a while.

The media also wanted to ask about "Pacific Rim", but Lin Nan pulled Liu Yifei and squeezed out with the help of several assistants.

Zhu Yawen, Luo Jin, and Shu Chang followed closely behind, and everyone got into the pick-up car. Reba went back to school directly from Hong Kong Island.

"Aren't you going back with us?"

When Liu Yifei saw that Lin Nan didn't get into the same car with her, she quickly asked.

"Qian Qian, you and Changchang go back first. I have to go to China Film Academy. Director Han and the others are still waiting."

Hearing that it was serious business, Liu Yifei nodded, "Then come back early."

"Yeah, I will."

Several cars set off from the airport and drove in different directions.

…………

"Pacific Rim" dominated the box office charts in the domestic film market in January.

In addition to the domestic market, its overseas box office has exceeded US$350 million and is approaching US$400 million. Southeast Asian countries have contributed a lot to the box office.

As for the domestic box office of "Pacific Rim", that is the common focus of all theaters and the production industry.

To be precise, everyone is paying attention to the results of the split bet between Lin Nan and the theater chain.

The 1.2 billion box office, after excluding the special fund for film industry development and the special business tax, is 46%, which is about 100 million more than the 44.5% of the 1 billion box office after excluding those two items! What's more, it is now 1.15 billion, which is very close to 1.2 billion.

If Lin Nan succeeds, then the production industry will regard this book-sharing bet as a case, and latecomers will only need to copy it!

The vehicle entered China Film Corporation without any obstruction. A secretary was already waiting, taking Lin Nan straight to the chairman's office.

Han Sanping and Ye Ning were sitting opposite each other, drinking tea.

"You came very slowly, the news has already come out." Han Sanping joked.

However, Lin Nan was a little confused. Is this too slow? He went straight to China Film Academy.

"I have your interview briefing at the airport."

Ye Ning pointed to the computer on the table:

“Director Lin’s new film is set to be released during the Lunar New Year!”

"Director Lin Nan alluded to Liu Shi's poetry being inferior to Yang Mi, especially using his film works as an example..."

Lin Nan had a dark face, knowing that these people would add some spice, but it didn't matter.

"I didn't mean that implicitly, I pointed it out explicitly later!"

Lin Nan said embarrassedly.

"Let's talk about the extension of the secret key. What's going on now?" This is what Lin Nan is most concerned about.

Han Sanping and Ye Ning looked at each other and smiled, and the former said: "Not long after I called you this morning, the notice from the bureau came down. I want to contact you again, but you are already on the plane."

"We got a one-month extension, and "Pacific Rim" will be released at the end of February!" Ye Ning added energetically.

Hearing this, Lin Nan breathed a sigh of relief. This wave is stable!

"The new secret keys can be produced within one day and are already being processed."

"Then send out a notice to cheer me up. These media have taken pity on me in the past two days!"

Lin Nan smiled and joked to himself.

…………

After talking about the business, it was Han Sanping's personal matter.

"I want the beautiful girl to join your crew."

"Huh? This is just my first year of graduate school. Besides, my company is currently not short of screenwriters."

Hearing Lin Nan's words, Han Sanping lost his face instantly, "She is a graduate student in the directing department!"

"But, I think she prefers screenwriting! Last time I met Lao Jiang and criticized her, saying that she never took classes in the directing department, but only liked attending the Chinese Department and the School of Management. She seemed to be quite interested in producing... "

Lin Nan didn't pay attention to Han Sanping's frozen face and finished his words with a smile.

"No matter how much I like it, there must be a graduation drama if I want to graduate. If I go to your place, my resume will look better."

Yes, Chairman Han has already talked about this, Lin Nan definitely can't refuse anymore.

"But I've made two movies in a row. I'm afraid I'm going to have to take a break in the short term. Can other movies of the company also work?"

Han Sanping and Ye Ning suddenly became excited and sat upright.

"What project?"

"Next, the company will release 2 to 3 movies, the first of which will be the second part of the "囧" series."

""People on the Road"?" Ye Ning asked.

"Yes, this time I will write the script and Xu Zheng will direct it."

"What about the other one or two?" Han Sanping said.

"An action movie, the script has not yet been decided. There is also another one, which is probably a soft science fiction movie."

"Then let Jia Nu go to the "囧" series and be an executive director. After all, the first one was profitable, so the sequel should not be bad."

Lin Nan nodded, "Of course, the premise is that Director Han convinces her that if she makes trouble after coming in, then I will handle business as usual."

Han Sanping nodded and said it was no problem.

"What about investment? Can Wanda follow?"

"The investment is not high..."

Before Lin Nan finished speaking, he saw Ye Ning shaking his head.

"Forget it, the first one didn't even have a box office of over 100 million, so Wanda won't join in the fun for the second one."

"So is China Film."

…………

After having lunch at China Film Studio, Lin Nan left.

When returning to the villa, Liu Yifei happily announced the good news.

She had just received an invitation from the acting department, asking her to return to school to be a guest for this year's art exam.

"you sure?"

As soon as Lin Nan said these words, she knew she was going to suffer.

Liu Yifei stared at him coldly, as if if you don't apologize, I will beat you to death.

"Well, what I mean is, which round are you going to go to?" Lin Nan hesitated.

"Re-examination guest."

"Okay, the retest went well. Congratulations, Teacher Liu Yifei..."

"Hahaha, you're embarrassed to call me teacher." Miss Liu was quite happy to hear this.

"So, Teacher Liu Yifei, let's play a game?"

Lin Nan said jokingly, smiling a little inappropriately.

Miss Liu was stunned for a few seconds, then suddenly her cheeks turned red and she entered her villa without looking back.

"Bah, gangster..."

…

…

China Film, Wanda Pictures, and Lin Nan Pictures announced the film bureau’s documents almost at the same time.

"After applying, "Pacific Rim" has received the secret key to postpone the film for a period of one month."

The documents stamped with red seals were also posted on Weibo.

The news spread and immediately attracted the attention of various media, theater companies and the production industry!

"He's still here! This is too overbearing, leaving no way for others to survive..."

"The stronger get stronger. This is indeed in line with the application rules for the extension of the secret key, but no one expected that "Pacific Rim" would succeed! After all, "Thirteen Hairpins" and "Flying Swords of Dragon Gate" both failed."

"Director Lin Nan's 1.2 billion box office and 46% split bet agreement are now stable and profitable!"

"Objection! This is completely partial, just because it is a co-production with Hollywood?"

…

"Very good. It shouldn't be difficult to buy tickets for the IMAX 3D giant screen theater next month."

"Support the extension..."

…

Once the news was made public, theaters silently accepted it because everyone knew that this was a win-win situation.

Although several producers, including Lin Nan Pictures, can get a 46% share of the revenue, theaters earn more...

The biggest and biggest opposition comes from the production industry.

People's hearts are complicated. Previously, "Pacific Rim" needed to take the lead and compete with the theaters. , everyone must express solidarity and support.

But "Pacific Rim" really got the key to postponement, and everyone couldn't accept it because it would affect their movie...

Audiences and movie fans are almost all satisfied, because those who have not bought 3D tickets before will not have to fight for them, and maybe the ticket prices will be reduced.

…………

The postponement of "Pacific Rim" is a foregone conclusion and no one can change it.

At this time, an eye-catching movie announced the launch conference time and invited guests from the entertainment industry.

"The action blockbuster "Special Identity", wholly-owned by Starlight, joined by two Chinese action superstars, and starring Jing Tian as the heroine, is scheduled to hold a launch conference in Beijing on February 7th!"

When mentioning Donnie Yen, the first thing that people think of is "Ip Man". Two "Ip Man" films made him successful!

Speaking of Zhao Wenzhuo, the most memorable thing is his performance in Hong Kong movies and his dozens of meters long blood-drinking knife!

At this stage, after Jackie Chan and Jet Li, these two people can barely bear the title of action superstars.

Speaking of Jing Tian, ​​her most dazzling resume is "The Martian" and the currently released "Pacific Rim", especially the latter.

Lin Nan received a call from Jing Tian, ​​"Brother Lin, can you invite you to the launch conference of "Special Identity"? Together with Sister Yifei."

Lin Nan just thought of Zhao Wenzhuo!

"Can."

"Thank you, Brother Lin. Then, I won't disturb you."

"Well, play well."

…

After hanging up the phone, Lin Nan called his assistant in, "Where is Director Yue?"

"Director Lin, Director Yue went to visit the crew of "Jing Zhong Yue Fei". The visiting class there was only opened yesterday."

"Oh, visits are open! That means it's almost finished. Okay, you go contact Xu Zheng and ask him to come to the company."

"Okay Director Lin, I'll go right away."

Lin Nan decided to settle the matter of "囧囧" first, and then meet Zhao Wenzhuo.
