That year Huayu

The crew of "Passengers" was all present, and no one was missing.

As directors and producers, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei are the focus of today's scene.

There is still more than an hour before the premiere officially starts, and everyone is busy socializing.

Liu Dehua, Zhou Xun, Lei Jiayin, and Liang Jiahui are all experienced veterans in this kind of situation.

Only Reba seemed a little unfamiliar and reserved when Liu Yifei took her with him.

Lin Nan, Han Sanping and others were talking when Fan Bingbing came over holding a wine glass in a tight-fitting dress that showed off her figure.

"... I wish director Lin's "Passengers" will be as successful as "The Gunslinger" and win the gold medal."

After speaking, Fan Bingbing drank half the glass of red wine in one gulp.

This bold style is liked by big guys like Han Sanping.

"Thank you. I originally thought you wouldn't be able to come. Aren't you also preparing for the premiere of your movie?"

"Of course I'm going to come. I'll be there in the dormant cabin soon. Speaking of the premiere, I would like to ask Director Lin to take the time to support it. It will be the day when "Passengers" is released on the 27th."

Lin Nan nodded and agreed. This was not a big deal, "Okay."

Seeing that Lin Nan agreed, Fan Bingbing said hello to Han Sanping and others again, and then walked away with a wink.

…

Seeing that the time was almost up, everyone returned to their positions.

The first two rows are state-owned enterprises such as Aviation Science and Technology, China Film, Shanghai Film, and Xiying Film, as well as producers such as Wanda and Enlight, as well as major film and television companies in the industry.

Huayi has two bosses, which gives it a great advantage. One is with Lin Nan, and the other is with "Dangerous Liaisons".

Lin Nan and Liu Yifei stood on the stage, surrounded by five actors.

"Many of the people sitting below today can be seen in the movie in a while."

Lin Nan's words immediately aroused laughter.

People in the industry have long heard that when Lin Nan was filming "Passengers", he was looking for people to make guest appearances and visit the cast, and almost all of them were recruited by Ning Ning.

Only Yu Dong was below, smiling awkwardly. Lin Nan didn't invite him to make a cameo...

"By the way, let me introduce it to you."

At this time, Liu Yifei remembered something and pulled Reba to him.

"Reba, she has already appeared in "The Genius". But really speaking, "Passengers" is her screen debut, and she is the second female lead."

Reba tried hard to keep a smile, feeling very nervous while listening to Liu Yifei introducing herself to all the guests present today.

"...If there is a suitable role, everyone can look for her..."

Liu Yifei talked eloquently and recommended Reba on the stage, which received a round of applause.

"Thank you, I'm Reba... I'm a junior in theater..."

Your name is Reba, why do you stutter when you speak?

Lin Nan and Liu Dehua stood nearby and couldn't help laughing.

In the audience, Yang Mi and Zeng Jia both sighed, Reba, the newcomer, has such a good life!

"She's hugging Liu Yifei's lap." Zeng Jia whispered.

"He is indeed a lucky man. He is more lucky than I was before."

…

Some young actors who were brought in by their elders were a little envious at the moment.

Hu Ge, who was in the middle, smiled and glanced at Cai Yinong beside him, who was indeed frowning.

Maybe in a few years, this Reba will be more popular than the first sister in her company?

…

"Passengers" was officially screened for the first time.

In the lens, the boundless universe and the stars are shining brightly.

The huge yet tiny interstellar spacecraft seems to be flying in front of a very close star. The picture is extremely shocking!

The meteorite swarm is coming towards the spaceship...

The lens zooms in infinitely and enters the interior of the spacecraft. The unconstrained architectural design is also eye-catching.

"The design of AVIC is so awesome, it feels like I'm back to when I was watching "The Martian"..."

Fragmented sounds rang out, and several actors and actresses couldn't help but exclaim.

"Fuck you, Director Han!"

"Holy shit, is it really Director Han?!"

When the first shot of the dormant cabin appeared, all the guests were shocked.

The first shot was given to the boss of China Film Group, Director Lin can do it!

Han Sanping smiled so hard that he couldn't even see his eyes. This shot lasted for six or seven seconds, which was very good.

The movie subtitles still haven't ended, and the long shot of the dormant cabin area begins to go down.

"...Zhang Yimou, Huang Bo...Tian Zhuangzhuang, Huang Xiaoming, Fan Bingbing...Jiang Wen, Ning Hao..."

There were dozens of industry leaders and front-line people, which surprised everyone.

This long shot lasts for three and a half minutes, until it finally freezes in front of two sleeping cabins next to each other.

"It's Director Lin and Yifei!"

"Are they really good at playing? They are guest immigrants and they have to be a couple when they go to an alien planet!"

…

The chatter became louder and louder, mostly with laughter.

The two-hour movie unfolds slowly.

Although it is a romance film, the sci-fi special effects shots are unambiguous at all. Everyone who watched it said it was wonderful.

…

"Ask me about the box office?"

"Yes, you are the producer."

Liu Yifei took the microphone and looked at Zhou Xun with a smile, who glared back in a playful manner.

"I think the box office must be very good, but it may not be better than "The Genius" because the heroine of "Passengers" is Brother Xun, not me!"

"Fuck you." Zhou Xun laughed and cursed.

"Hi, I'm a producer. I'm so disrespectful. I'll be careful not to call you next time."

Liu Yifei pretended to be angry and replied, and at first glance she was joking.

Another burst of laughter suddenly broke out below. Even if the box office problem is solved, it will be over.

…

The longer Lin Nan stays in this circle, the clearer he understands some of the rules of this industry, such as the exchange of favors and the exchange of interests.

Just like this moment, Jiang Wenli brought her niece over to say hello, and Lin Nan started chatting with interest.

“Now it’s not like before. If an actress really wants to stand out, she can’t do without commercial films.

If there is an opportunity in the future, if you give her a role, Director Gu and I would like to thank you in advance. "

"Sister Wen Li, you're welcome. If there's a chance, of course."

"Thank you, Director Lin."

Perhaps after several years of "teaching" by Jiang Wenli, Ma Chun is indeed not as "reckless" as when they first met, and has become much smoother.

"At the beginning, "Into the Dust" had no success in the Golden Rooster. I hope it will have good results in the Golden Rooster this time."

Jiang Wenli looked at Lin Nan and said implicitly.

The original heroine of "Into the Dust" was Jiang Wenli.

And this time for the Golden Horse Awards, she will be one of the five members of the final round of the jury!

Five accounts for two.

Lin Nan smiled and nodded, "Thank you, Sister Wenli, for lending me your kind words."

…………

The premiere is over and the media is busy.

"The premiere of "Passengers" is over. The special effects are stunning. It's a science fiction romance blockbuster. It's not to be missed."

"There are more than 40 guest guests in the industry, and director Lin Nan is a big deal!"

"Liu Yifei recommends the new actor Reba to the producers and film companies present in the film and television industry!"

…

"At the premiere of "Dangerous Liaisons", the guest lineup was a little thin. Xiao Sa hosted it personally..."

"Zhang Ziyi said bluntly with tears in her eyes at the premiere: She just wants to find a good and honest man to marry!"

"Dou Xiao said that his work has been managed by Pu Lun, not the new picture..."

…

Lin Nan and Liu Dehua met. The latter will return to Hong Kong Island and will soon go to the Golden Horse to participate in the judging work.

The next time we meet will be at the Golden Horse Awards in November.

"Director Lin, see you at Golden Horse."

"See you on the golden horse."

…

Several domestic films are gaining momentum.

In terms of media promotion, it has become somewhat deserted.

"Huayi calls on theaters to arrange films as fairly and as comprehensively as possible, rather than just relying on others."

Yue Jun seemed to be telling a joke, which was a joke in the first place.

"Is this for Passengers?"

Lin Nan lowered his head and smiled, knowingly asked.

The theater chain will definitely give priority to Lin Nan's movies because they have a guaranteed box office.

"Obviously. The number of films scheduled on the first day gave us 30%, and even "Looper" was far behind."

"Looper" is an imported blockbuster that several domestic films have to face, and no one can escape.

"They should thank me for taking the lead." Lin Nan joked casually.

…

Two days flew by.

"Passengers", "Tai Chi 1" and "Dangerous Liaisons" were released on the same day.

Both the film industry and major media are a little excited.

Judging from the cast and investment scale, these three movies are all blockbusters. And it was released on the same day, which was also a hot topic of public opinion.

The three movies can be compared and hyped anytime and anywhere, and there is endless material to write about.

On the first day of the movie's release, Lin Nan went to the premiere of "Double Exposure."

Liu Yifei, on the other hand, made an appointment with Shu Chang and Reba and went to sing. Miss Liu is an out-and-out Mai Ba.

The box office on the first day can be said to be highly anticipated.

At the same time, online reviews of the three movies also vary.

“‘Passengers’ grossed 49.6 million at the box office on its first day, a little test of its skills!”

"Different from the pure hard-core science fiction of "The Martian", "Passengers" is a bit more tender, but it is still a wonderful science fiction romance blockbuster..."

"The love movie "Dangerous Liaisons" starring Zhang Baizhi and Zhang Ziyi, with an investment of 200 million yuan, had extremely poor box office on the first day, with a revenue of 4.6 million yuan, and there is no hope of recovering the original investment..."

"Tai Chi 1, produced by Huayi and directed by newcomer director Feng Delun, starring martial arts champion Yuan Xiaochao and Yang Ying, showed its decline. The box office on the first day was 8.9 million, which was far from the set target..."

…

What the industry is most concerned about is the box office, and as expected, it is Lin Nan's "Passengers" that leads the pack.

At this time, online reviews of the three movies had already spread.

How do you say that?

Don’t be afraid of not knowing the goods, be afraid of comparing goods!

When the three movies were put in front of them, both the audience and the media had endless things to say.

Which one is more rubbish and which one is worse? The more you compare them, the more they will become apparent.

Fortunately, "Passengers" is the movie that is used as a benchmark for comparison, not the one that is criticized.
