That year Huayu

China Film and Wanda contacted Lin Nan one after another.

These two families took over a film project after hearing someone's lie at the Shanghai Film Festival.

"Are you really not coming to this new co-production we're talking about?"

Han Sanping lobbied on the phone, hoping that Lin Nan could join him, like in "Pacific Rim".

"Director Han, I'm really not interested in this subject. I told Ye Ning yesterday."

Lin Nan declined with a chuckle.

"Are you sure you won't come?"

"Well, let's do it next time."

"Hua Yi and Bona also asked me if I could participate in the investment. It's better for you here, I'm not interested yet!

Okay, let’s just use China Film and Wanda, and no one else..."

Han Sanping hung up the phone with a regretful tone. It seemed that Lin Nan had missed a big money-making project.

…

Movies with "Man" in their names are not necessarily blockbusters like "Batman", "Spider-Man" and "Iron Man".

For example, Han Sanping and Ye Ning talked about this "Tai Chi Man".

Although Lin Nan didn't know what the specific story of this movie was, just hearing the name gave him a sense of déjà vu.

So in order to avoid trouble, he declined decisively and politely.

However, it seems that in Han Sanping's eyes, this movie project is quite precious!

…………

This year's Shanghai Film Festival seems to have become a stage for Hong Kong filmmakers to vent their negative emotions.

Wenjun led a group of elderly people to angrily denounce the "shameless behavior" of the mainland film industry that has begun to suppress and exclude the Hong Kong film industry.

All the reasons stem from the recent mainland media bombardment of the bad behavior of Hong Kong circles over the years: "The Seven Deadly Sins of Hong Kong Directors".

Lin Nan saw this report and it was very true.

No wonder Wenjun, Wu Yusen and others are so anxious and angry.

"The older generation of directors in Hong Kong don't want to make progress, they only want to rest on their laurels, and they are destroying the mainland film industry..."

"Hong Kong filmmakers are borrowing money from the mainland to lay eggs: they use the money from the mainland to support the Hong Kong team, and they use the mainland's frontline to support Hong Kong actors..."

"A large number of directors and producers from Hong Kong come to the mainland to suck blood and make money, but at the same time they treat us as idiots and fool us."

"You have one face when you come to the mainland, and another face when you return to Hong Kong Island!"

…

Many mainland film and television companies, directors and actors feel that this report is very well written. This is a true portrayal of the "cooperation and exchange" between Hong Kong and the mainland over the years.

At the Shanghai Film Festival, Wenjun led a group of Hong Kong directors and cursed, saying that the mainland media's reports were too dishonest and vicious...

Wang Jing, Liu Zhenwei, Chen Kexin, Wu Yusen and others even said such soft words as "we are born from the same roots, so why rush to fight each other", which made people angry. How could such an attitude have been seen in the past? In the past, it was all high and mighty.

This kind of thing was said at the Shanghai International Film Festival in front of so many domestic and foreign media, which shows how angry the people in Hong Kong are.

The Shanghai Film Festival was forced to take action and has already begun to calm public opinion.

…

In the past, the two sides were quarreling in private, and at most small-scale disputes broke out.

This time, it was the mainland media who took the initiative to speak out and enumerate the "crimes" in Hong Kong. This is considered to be completely open and clear.

The two sides will definitely continue to cooperate in the future, but the Hong Kong circle is basically doomed. It will be difficult to "hold the airs" as before, because the window paper has been completely pierced.

…………

In this round of publicity, the last stop is the Sixth Princess.

Lin Nan is also an old acquaintance with the movie channel.

Movie Channel has the broadcasting rights of all his movies, although the prices are not high.

The people of the sixth princess asked questions without any scruples.

The host directly asked Lin Nan what he thought of the Shanghai Film Festival and the article "The Seven Deadly Sins of Hong Kong Directors".

"Are you sure you can ask this question?"

Lin Nan asked in surprise, and glanced at Liu Yifei and others who were also stunned beside him.

Seeing the host's smile, he suddenly reacted.

This is a movie channel, not a radio and television channel.

As long as it's about the film industry, we can talk here, which is very comfortable.

"Of course I can, Director Lin, but it doesn't matter."

"Well, overall I agree with that report. It was written very objectively."

"But I would also like to add that there are still many sensible filmmakers and actors in Hong Kong, such as director Chen Jiashang of Guangwang, Andy Lau, Jackie Chan, etc..."

Lin Nan was chatting here, and Liu Yifei looked at him with bright eyes and an adoring smile on her face.

Zhu Yawen and others around him were a little uneasy. They couldn't get involved in this kind of topic. Only a great director like Lin Nan could get involved.

"...the further we go, the Hong Kong industry and Hong Kong films will only be a small part of Chinese-language films. The mainland is the main force, and they can only be vassals. This is a fact, and they must recognize it."

After Lin Nan finished speaking, the staff of the movie channel present applauded because Lin Nan's speech had a sense of foresight.

…………

Only three days later, the Sixth Princess broadcast an interview video with the crew of "The Genius Gunfighter" during the evening session.

Among them, Lin Nan's speech was widely reported by the media. This was the first major mainland director to speak out publicly, and it was on the movie channel.

Lin Nan spoke more objectively, and gave examples of Andy Lau, Chen Jia Shang and others. Coupled with the special broadcast platform, the Hong Kong Island side was at a loss.

I really want to attack him head-on, but I have to endure it because I can't afford to offend the movie channel. In the end, it was said that Lin Nan was biased against Hong Kong...

"The Hong Kong Film Awards will no longer welcome Lin Nan..."

…

"Is this really a joke? Does Director Lin like it?"

"Just close the door and play by yourself, no one will go."

To be honest, Lin Nan didn't take this matter to heart at all.

Hong Kong area? For him, it is dispensable, having Yinghuang is enough.

…………

It is common in the entertainment industry to praise someone who is superior and to criticize someone who is inferior.

How many A-list stars are being stared at by a large number of peers, hoping that they will collapse and fall so that others behind them can take their place and share the resources.

Here, one has to admire the original light, which forced an A-list actress to be brought down.

Huang Shengyi, who was born as a star girl, one of the Four Little Actresses, and an A-list actress, has seen her reputation and status plummet since "White Snake".

Now, this guy has already fallen to the second tier, and he is still one of the last ones. He may fall to the third tier team at any time, which is really a bit miserable.

Yang Zai's brainlessness has made Juli ostracized and discriminated against in the industry. Now he finally recognizes the reality.

He took Huang Shengyi to visit Zhao Benshan.

Huang Shengyi will star in an urban family ethics drama with Zhao Benshan's apprentice, playing a couple!

Once the news was reported, it spread quickly.

Huang Shengyi and Yang Zai instantly became jokes in the circle.

The former is the most miserable "Four Little Actresses" and the fastest-falling A-list actress;

The latter is known as the most deceitful agent, and he brutally crippled an A-list actress!

There really has never been such a precedent in the industry, so this time it is a great experience.

…………

"Director Lin, this is the plan for the premiere of "The Genius Gunfighter"."

A plan was handed to Lin Nan, along with a budget.

"How is the recruitment? Is there any progress?" Lin Nan looked up at Yue Jun.

A few days after the latter returned from Hong Kong Island, he went to Nortel.

The school definitely supports this kind of thing.

"We are still screening. After all, our company is one of the best in the industry and there are many interested people."

Yue Jun said with a chuckle, very confident.

For some professional talents in film and television, the company gives priority to finding them from Nortel.

After all, there is a saying in the industry that is very good and everyone generally agrees:

"Except for the acting major, Nortel is basically better than the Chinese Opera and Shanghai Opera in other majors."

This sentence is both a compliment and an irony!

"Well, I'll leave it to you then." Lin Nan nodded and said.

"Nortel is preparing for the graduation ceremony these two days, and there are a lot of people. I was stuck in traffic every time I went there. There are also many people who are looking for investment..."

"Is it the directing department or some teachers?" Lin Nan frowned slightly and asked.

If it is the two of them, you can give them a chance to hear the specific project content.

"There are all of them, as well as the literature department, photography department and other majors. It is very difficult to attract investment now, and the support funds are just that..."

Lin Nan thought for a while, "Next time I come to you, let them write a movie project plan and send it to your email. Let's try our luck."

"Okay, that's a good idea."

The graduation ceremony is about to be held, which means that Guo Fan and the others are about to officially graduate.

…………

After Yue Jun left, Lin Nan thought of what happened with Xue Xiaolu.

He made a phone call and luckily, they weren't busy there.

"Sister Xue, it's already late June. How is your later stage of "Love in Seattle" going?"

On the other end of the phone, Xue Xiaolu seemed to be in a good mood.

"It's coming soon. It can be completed as early as the end of this month or early next month."

Hearing this, Lin Nan wanted to complain. Is this too soon? The latter stage has been going on for more than two months.

"Okay, you have to hurry up. It's summer vacation soon, so you don't need to take care of students anymore..."

Lin Nan urged, he was also thinking of releasing "Love in Seattle" after "囧", but he didn't know what Xue Xiaolu thought.

…………

In the evening, the villa of Liu Yifei and her daughter was brightly lit, and Shu Chang was also there.

Two girls went out for a crazy day today. Now I am sitting in the garden, petting the cat.

"There are pictures of you two all over the Internet."

Lin Nan stood at the gate and joked.

It seems that Shu Chang will stay with Liu Yifei and her daughter tonight.

"It's okay. I haven't gone out to have fun in a long time. I finally have time today. It's too tiring to do promotions during this period."

Liu Yifei said playfully, patting the seat next to her with a white and tender hand, asking Lin Nan to sit over.

"That's right, when this movie is released, you must give me a red envelope. I have lost a few pounds."

Shu Chang nodded his head and agreed.

"Tell the producer, and if she agrees, she will give you a big red envelope." Lin Nan continued, joking.

"Sissi, I can give you some hidden rules tonight, hehehe..."

"You are becoming more and more dishonest, like a female gangster."

Liu Yifei rolled her eyes at Shu Chang angrily and laughed in anger.

Lin Nan was on the side, watching the two of them staring at each other, which was quite pleasing to the eye.

The next moment, he thought of business.

"By the way, I have to remind you that you will be attending the premiere of "Famous Catchers" in two days. Director Wang just called me and I will tell you..."

The cast and crew of "Genius Gunslinger" were all invited, so Lin Nan notified them on their behalf.

"Yeah, I know."
