That year Huayu

Hua Yi's actions attracted the attention of the entire film and television industry, including Lin Nan, a shareholder.

Brothers Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei spent 252 million to buy 70% of the equity of Zhang Guoli Company.

Since then, Zhang Guoli signed a contract with Huayi, and his company has been completely merged into Huayi, becoming a part of Huayi Group. It seems that he has boarded a giant ship.

I heard that this was the result of Feng Xiaogang's matchmaking between the two parties.

Otherwise, Zhang Guoli, the boss of the film and television company, would not suddenly sign a contract with Huayi.

Of course, it is possible that it is indeed what Zhang Guoli said.

He felt that he was getting older and his hard-working approach could no longer keep up with the times, so he accepted Huayi's olive branch.

The industry is very optimistic about the cooperation between Huayi and Leslie Cheung.

Because Zhang Guoli's company is very strong in the field of TV drama production, it has produced many well-known works over the years.

It can be seen from the rising stock price of Huayi that this is indeed good news.

But these are superficial. Lin Nan is more concerned about the gambling agreement between Hua Yi and Zhang Guoli.

"Lao Zhang seems to have made a profit, but there is a risk. Although the risk seems very small at the moment. But Huayi will never lose money..."

As Lin Nan is a shareholder, according to the rules, the Wang brothers must notify them of this matter.

This gambling content is very interesting.

After Zhang Guoli received 252 million in cash, he had to buy back 150 million worth of Huayi shares, which were locked and could not be sold within 3 years.

In addition, within the five years of the gambling period, starting from the first year, which is this year, Zhang Guoli's company's after-tax profit must reach 30 million, and will increase year by year thereafter.

If within five years, the profit of any year is lower than that year's figure, then Zhang Guoli will have to make up for it out of his own pocket!

Bet against bet, the bet is a future.

Once a bet is signed, a good actor will no longer be able to choose the script. Under pressure, he will gradually lower the threshold and focus on money.

…

"Yes, I'm sorry. In fact, when I graduated from graduate school, the school asked me about staying in school.

He told me last year, and Director Tian talked to me again not long ago. In principle, I have agreed. "

The person on the other end of the phone laughed immediately when he heard Lin Nan's words.

"No wonder you were hesitant to speak last time. It seems that I interrupted you, which was too rash.

Okay, since there is no fate, I can't force you. If there is a suitable movie opportunity in the future, I hope you can consider the actors in the film, they are all very good. "

"That's for sure. Everyone in the industry knows that actors from China National Theater are actors. Several of my movies were all performed by senior brothers and sisters from China National Theater."

"You can be an actor in a Chinese drama, you say so, but in the end, you still have to be given a chance by the director of Nortel? You think so? Haha..."

Lin Nan complimented her politely, but when the other party came back, he found it hard to answer.

China is a director-centered system, and actors are indeed subject to the director.

This is also the reason why, although actors from China Theater Company have a better reputation than those from Nortel, Chinese Opera actors have always been suppressed by Nortel in the industry.

"Just a clear reply will be enough. I won't waste your time. I look forward to your next casting call."

"good."

After ending the call, Lin Nan was still a little sad.

"If I had gone to China Theater Academy, what would be my situation now?"

This idea came to Lin Nan's mind involuntarily, but he shook it off in the next second.

Because if that were the case, maybe he would be another Lin Nan now.

People around me don’t know if it will be Liu Yifei. What's more, there might really be a forest around him.

…

For the film industry, there are several major directors who will be making new films in the second half of this year.

Previous castings also attracted actors in the industry.

The first one is Wu Yusen. The filming of "The Wheel" has been started for more than two months, and some of the characters are even about to be finished.

Now, the second great director has finally started working.

All major news media have given a lot of space to report on this matter, and everyone inside and outside the circle is paying attention.

"After "Jinling Thirteen Hairpins", the two went their separate ways, nearly two years ago."

"It is reported that director Zhang Yimou is still asking for arrears of remuneration and box office split from Zhang Weiping. The latter has disappeared and is hiding."

"Director Zhang Yimou's comeback film "Return" officially starts shooting today."

"Faced with reporters' questions, Gong Li did not shy away from his past with director Zhang Yimou. He bluntly said that the two are now old friends, better than family members."

…

After Lin Nan browsed the news for a while, he stopped paying attention.

He casually spread out the script on his desk.

To be precise, this cannot be regarded as a script, it can only be said to be an outline of the script, or more of a detailed outline.

"More than three years, almost four years?"

According to the detailed outline of this movie, it has been almost 4 years since it was released.

Lin Nan stood up and left the office.

"Director Lin, what's the matter?" the assistant responded quickly and asked.

"Inform Director Lu Yang and ask him to come to the company, now."

"Okay, I'll contact Director Lu immediately."

After speaking, Lin Nan returned to the office and waited for others.

The outside world is very lively. Following Zhang Yimou and Feng Xiaogang, many people in the industry have responded to the "invitation" from China Television.

Many declined for various reasons, but some accepted.

Although Jiang Wen was far away in Venice, he also posted on Weibo and made a public statement.

He neither accepted nor rejected, but chose to compromise.

He will be a guest lecturer, and there will be no establishment or salary.

In his words, it is all about giving back to his alma mater.

However, based on Lin Nan's understanding of him, "repaying his alma mater" may be mixed with a hint of pretense.

When you are free and in the mood, you go to give lectures. When you are not in the mood, you don't go. The main thing is that you can come and leave at any time, and you still have a strong personality!

Lin Nan watched the news again while waiting for someone.

Unknowingly, before Lu Yang arrived, he received a call from Han Sanping.

He answered the phone and joked: "Director Han, don't tell me that you still have work matters to ask me?"

"You kid are teasing me on purpose, right?"

"Haha, don't you dare, are you kidding me? You are just a few days away from retirement. You should be very relaxed recently, right?"

"It's quite relaxing. I come to China Film Studio every day to sit, drink tea and read the newspaper, then continue drinking tea and reading the newspaper. At most, I have to go back and forth to the restaurant and the bathroom a few times.

I used to long for this day, haha..."

Han Sanping's tone could not be heard as "longing", but instead sounded a bit grumbling and depressed.

Before Lin Nan could speak, Han Sanping sighed again:

"Sigh. Although there is still more than half a month until he officially retires, all the work is already being handled by La Peikang. He is the one with the bustling crowd."

Good guy, in this sentence, Lin Nan actually heard the feeling that a hero is late, but he is still an old man.

"You're just not used to it for a while. If you ask me to retire this month, you can just open a company and let's make it bigger and stronger..."

"What did you say?"

"Me? I said, make it bigger and stronger?"

"last sentence."

"Open a company?" Lin Nan said softly.

"Open a company...Open a company? There's something going on!"

Lin Nan could hear the sound of slapping someone's thigh through the phone.

"I can open a company for the beautiful girl, and I'll hang it with her..."

At this moment, Lin Nan felt a little emotional, Lao Han really thought about everything for his "leaky cotton-padded jacket".

"By the way, I'm holding on to your salary and that of Junior Sister Han. I'll send them to Junior Sister Han next month."

"I know you are interested. I called you today because I was bored and because it was a private matter.

The time has been set. Even on the 1st of next month, no invitation letter will be sent out. The location will be notified at the end of the month. "

Lin Nan understood what Han Sanping was talking about. It was his retirement and sixtieth birthday party.

"Okay, I will definitely arrive on time. But Yifei may be in doubt."

"It doesn't matter, you bring her share, haha..."

I chatted with Han Sanping for a while, just to pass the time.

It is probably difficult to find someone like Lin Nan in the industry. He has a high status but is relatively young.

I happened to be able to chat with Han Sanping, and I could make jokes and make jokes, which others couldn't do.

Lu Yang rushed to the company.

"It took exactly one hour from the time I received the call to the time I entered the company."

After entering Lin Nan's office, Lu Yang opened the refrigerator and took a bottle of mineral water while talking, and then sat down.

"Director Lin, you suddenly called me to the company. What's the matter?"

"Here, let's take a look."

Lin Nan pushed the script forward, and Lu Yang picked it up easily.

The next moment, his eyes widened.

"A sequel to "Xiu Chun Dao"?"

After finishing speaking, he quickly started to turn over the pages.

"It's not a sequel. If we follow the timeline, the story of this script takes place before "Xiuchundao", and it can be regarded as the second part of the "Xiuchundao" series."

"Only Xizang?" Lu Yang raised his head and asked.

"Yes, it's a detailed outline, but the characters and story line are very clear and perfect. You just need to go back and fill in and polish it a little bit." Lin Nan said with a chuckle.

"I originally thought that "One Man's Martial Arts" would break 500 million, but why don't I take a break?

Now, Director Lin, you are so cruel, just like putting contraband in front of a drug addict! "

Lu Yang looked at Lin Nan with a confused but excited look on his face.

"The detailed outline of this script was originally written together with "Xiu Chun Knife". It was put away for four years and is now handed over to you."

Lin Nan leaned on the chair and expressed his attitude of letting go of the shopkeeper.

"No problem, I will perfect it before the end of the year and make it as perfect as possible. This is my first series!"

Lu Yang lowered his head again, reading the script as if fascinated, still muttering:

"Jin Yiwei, I don't want to change the core Zhang Zhen, the others..."

Having said this, Lu Yang hesitated and asked, "Director Lin?"

"Well, what's wrong?"

"There is a heroine in this script, so why should we use Yang Mi?"

To be honest, Lu Yang wanted to retain as many of the original cast members as possible, but he also understood that Yang Mi was no longer an artist in the company.

Although Yang Mi was not an artist in the company when she first filmed "Xiu Chun Dao".

But this time and that time, it was completely different.

Lu Yang looked at Lin Nan, waiting for his answer.

Lin Nan pinched his eyebrows. How could he not know what Lu Yang was thinking.

"You should work on the script first, and then we can talk about this when the time comes to decide on the project and cast the characters."

"Then, okay." Lu Yang nodded.

"By the way, before the official preparation of this movie, try to keep it as secret as possible to avoid trouble."

Regarding "Xiu Chun Dao 2", Lin Nan still wants to go it alone and not bring along other companies.

"Don't worry, Director Lin, it will be kept strictly confidential."
