That year Huayu

Chapter 543 Box Office

It is said that every time Chen Kaige makes a blockbuster movie, he does a lot of construction work.

In the end, whether a movie is successful or not, and whether it is a blockbuster or not, it will not affect the fact that it makes money.

The key to profitability lies in the newly built film and television base or film and television city with high-quality work and materials.

Because there are always local governments, eager to provide land and funds to pay for it.

And what is left after the film is filmed is indeed a film and television base that can drive tourism and cultural industries for a long time.

And the local government will continue to expand the scale of the film and television city on this basis, making it a more eye-catching business card!

As early as when the project of "The Orphan of Zhao" was established and cast, there were rumors in the industry that Chen Kaige's team would adapt "The Ghost Banquet of the Tang Dynasty" by Kukai the Samurai.

After "The Orphan of Zhao" was released, Chen Hong did publicly say to the outside world that Chen Kaige had invested in the adaptation of the script of "Samana Kukai".

Originally, the industry thought that after nearly three years, Chen Kaige, who also directed the "Search" in the middle, would start filming "Kukai the Great Tang Ghost Banquet".

As a result, Chen Hong’s announcement again today was beyond everyone’s expectations:

"Because the Tangcheng Film and Television Base cannot be completed as scheduled, the film project adapted from "Kukai Kukai: The Ghost Banquet of the Tang Dynasty" will be temporarily put on hold.

After careful consideration, Director Chen decided to officially start the project and prepare for the Republic of China fantasy martial arts film "The Taoist Comes Down the Mountain", and the casting will start from now on..."

The news of the Palme d'Or director always attracts the attention of the entire film and television industry.

Whether it is filmmakers, actors and stars in the industry, or a large number of netizens on the Internet, they are all discussing it.

"Three years ago, the Tangcheng Film and Television Base officially started construction because of Director Chen, for the movie "Kukai Kukai: The Ghost Banquet of the Tang Dynasty."

"It depends on the situation. "The Taoist Comes Down the Mountain" is a temporary replacement. It seems that this movie does not have a supporting film and television base, haha..."

"This is director Kai Ge's first attempt at a martial arts movie!"

"I wonder when the casting will start. Will there be open auditions?"

Looking at the top news on the Internet and the large number of discussions on Weibo, Lin Nan couldn't help but sigh, Director Chen is really a legend among directors in the industry.

He has finally understood the model of one blockbuster and one city, and he is the only representative figure in the film industry.

For two consecutive days, Lin Nan went to the premieres of "A Romantic Affair" and "A Night of Surprise".

Although he didn't stay long, the favor was finally received. As for the other films, they were handed over to other people in the company.

""The Dragon King of the Divine City"? It's the National Day show again!"

Lin Nan saw the news that Huayi held a media meeting. The second part of the "Detective Dee" series has been scheduled for September 28.

Recalling "Tongtian Empire" three years ago, it seems that it was originally a National Day release.

But in the end, in order to avoid "Thieves", it was postponed for half a month and changed to September 16th.

"Produced by Huayi, the low-budget romantic comedy "The Story of My Ex" has officially started filming."

"Zhang Guoli joins the Spring Festival Gala host team..."

After Lin Nan flipped through the news for a while, he closed the page. It was really boring. It was all Huayi's information.

After getting up and leaving the office, Lin Nan went to Tiangong Color. There was only a little bit left in the post-editing of "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom".

"The editing team is working overtime. Is it okay to finish "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" today?"

"No problem, Director Lin. No need to work overtime!"

"It can definitely be completed before I get off work in the afternoon."

…………

The crowded premieres of domestic movies are still going on.

The August schedule, destined to be filled with smoke, has officially begun.

On the morning of the 1st, "Space Traveler" has officially opened in all domestic theaters.

As the first domestic film in August and produced by Lin Nan Pictures, this film undoubtedly has a huge advantage in terms of attention and scheduling rate.

"The crew and creators are still posting on Weibo to promote it."

Liu Yifei reminded Lin Nan while editing her own content.

"I know, help me."

Lin Nan was surrounded by a group of cats and dogs, all waiting for him to feed them. Miss Liu was lazy and threw the work to him.

"Well, leave it to me."

At noon, Lin Nan got some attendance data from Ye Ning.

In the face of imported films such as "Fast and Furious 6", the attendance rate of "Space Traveler", at least for Wanda, was 86% on average.

This figure is already very high. Lin Nan estimates that it will not be less than 35 million on the first day.

In the afternoon, the online movie reviews came out.

"This is a movie that walks the line between science fiction, love and life. It is completely different from previous science fiction films."

"It's not as successful and arrogant as imagined, and it doesn't have the slightest hint of being second-rate. It's a very high-quality story about ordinary people, love and family, and it's great to watch!"

"Chicken soup is actually added to a science fiction movie, but it doesn't feel greasy at all and tastes delicious..."

"Director Guo Fan is right. I can completely believe in Director Lin Nan's script. It's a very heartwarming science fiction film!"

Seeing the positive reviews from many filmmakers and netizens online, Lin Nan knew that this movie was a solid one.

Although some people still complain that the movie is not "tense" and "exciting" enough, it is difficult to agree with everyone.

This kind of audience may be more suitable for a plot like "Fast and Furious 6".

At this moment, domestic films of the same period are under pressure.

Because "Space Traveler" seems to have made a good start, which also means that this movie may really be the first to take the lead in the August schedule? !

"Don't worry, you will be able to see the first-day box office tomorrow morning."

Guo Fan made a rare call to Lin Nan and talked about the box office.

"Director Lin, I also want to calm down, but I can't. Starting from tomorrow, there will be one or two movies released almost every day!"

Guo Fan said mockingly, this is also true, there are too many competitors.

"Okay, I'll sleep late today. After China Film Distribution Company gives me the data as soon as possible, I will forward it to you?"

"Then I'll trouble Director Lin, haha..."

"You're welcome."

Lin Nan said with a smile that he had not planned to go to bed early tonight. He had recovered well in the past few days.

…………

Ning Hao really means what he says.

I had previously said that "No Man's Land" would be put on the Lunar New Year schedule, but it was finally scheduled to be released on December 3rd.

Now I’m really starting to think about going to the film festival.

For this reason, he specially called Lin Nan to invite Lin Nan out for dinner and asked about his experience!

"I thought you were joking, are you serious?"

"I have been making movies for so many years. My highest honor is the Best Director at the College Student Film Festival. I have to improve!"

Ning Hao raised his glass and drank half a glass of beer. Xing Aina was eating food beside him and teased:

"It's time to make progress. Others who write novels have already won the Best New Director at Category A Film Festivals."

"Can it be the same? He is too wet."

Ning Hao retorted, then looked at Lin Nan: "Tell me, what do you think of me going to Berlin?"

"So you didn't sign up for Venice some time ago, and you were just waiting for Berlin?"

"Yes, wasn't I thinking that this subject matter would be suitable? Tell me, it would be great if you were a member of the jury in Berlin!"

"That's unfortunate. Otherwise, if the film is postponed for another two years, I can try to become the chairman of the jury?"

Lin Nan was so happy, Ning Hao was too daring to think about it.

But one thing he was right about was that Lin Nan might indeed be invited back to be a judge, and the probability was not small.

"Two years? That's impossible. After all, you won two Silver Bear Awards for Best Director there. Do you think "No Man's Land" has a good chance?"

Ning Hao was a little unwilling to give up and continued to ask.

"There's no way to say for sure. I can't guarantee the current version of "No Man's Land."

How about...you bring the original version of "No Man's Land" with you? I think that one has a pretty good chance of winning an award, at least the Alfred Ball Silver Bear! "

Lin Nan looked at Ning Hao with a wicked smile and gave him a "good" idea.

"I'm going to die!"

Xing Aina reacted the fastest and spat at Lin Nan.

"Damn it, I didn't poison this meal, but you actually want to harm me?"

Ning Hao immediately pointed at Lin Nan and cursed with a smile.

"Isn't it just a 3 to 5-year ban on guiding? If you give it a try, maybe you can get a golden bear?"

"Haha, I don't have that courage. I can't compare with Jiang Wen and Lou Ye. I'll just sign up for this version that has been reviewed."

Lin Nan smiled and nodded, he was just joking. "Is this settled?"

"It's decided, let's go to Berlin."

…………

At about seven o'clock in the evening, Lin Nan was a little drunk and was driven back by the bad monkey.

After returning home and drinking a glass of honey water that Liu Yifei handed him, Lin Nan originally wanted to lie down for a while to sober up.

But as soon as he closed his eyes, he really fell asleep. He only vaguely remembered that Miss Liu helped him take off his clothes.

When Lin Nan woke up again, it was already the next morning and he was woken up by peeing.

"Oh, it's all Ning Hao's fault. He made me drink!"

Looking at Liu Yifei sitting in the living room who got up so early, Lin Nan knew that she came to see him.

I saw Miss Liu showing a sly smile, "It doesn't matter if you haven't drunk too much, relatives are here..."

Well……

This is not good news.

"Check out the movie information. The box office is very good!"

Liu Yifei patted the place next to her and motioned to Lin Nan.

Sure enough, the box office of "Space Traveler" did not exceed Lin Nan's expectations.

"Produced by Lin Nan Pictures and directed by Director Guo Fan, starring Luo Jin, Wan Qian, Reba, Tang Yan, Sun Yizhou, Deng Jiajia and others, the movie "Space Traveler" reported a box office of 38.5 million on the first day..."

"The low-budget movie "Youth Party" starring the post-90s movie star Dong Zijian and the Golden Horse movie queen Qin Hailu is officially released today."

Lin Nan patted his forehead.

"What's wrong?" Liu Yifei asked confused.

"I promised Guo Ban yesterday to help him ask for data. I have to apologize to him later..."

Lin Nan turned on her phone while talking.

Among the text messages was a message received at 12:10 in the morning, which was the first-day box office data of "Space Traveler".

"You go and wash up first. Mom has cooked porridge, and I'll bring you a bowl."

Liu Yifei said thoughtfully, and before Lin Nan could react, she got up and walked out.

Looking at Miss Liu's graceful figure, Lin Nan couldn't help but reveal a gentle smile on his face and muttered:

"What a fool, I can go there with you after I wash up, but I have to make an extra trip. It's so stupid, hehe..."

At this time, Lin Nan suddenly remembered something in his mind.

When he left Nortel two days ago, he saw Chen Jinfei with his assistant.
