That year Huayu

Lin Nan's speech at the Golden Horse Awards ceremony went viral and had a great impact on public opinion.

Early in the morning, many people called me, all saying one thing: "Great job!"

"This kind of thing has not yet reached the level of official announcement, but your influence in the film industry is not small, so it is very appropriate for you to express your attitude on that occasion.

The Children's Bureau called me specifically this morning and asked me to praise you privately. His status, both public and private, makes him unfit to express his stance directly. "

Lin Nan answered La Peikang's call with a smile on his face and nodded from time to time.

"La Dong, isn't this what you should do? What more praise do you need, haha."

"I still want it. You are the first mainland filmmaker to stand up and speak out publicly at the Golden Horse Awards. At this moment, the public opinion on the Internet is even more uproar, and there is even some anger..."

A few minutes later, Lin Nan ended the phone call with La Peikang and continued washing his face and brushing his teeth.

From the mainland and Hong Kong Island, most of the filmmakers who came to participate in the Golden Horse Awards had already left last night, and a small number of them also left today.

Lin Nan met Li An while having breakfast in the restaurant.

"I'm sorry, Director Lin. Some things are sudden and I really can't control them."

Putting down the chopsticks in his hands, Lin Nan looked at Li An:

"Director Li, you should read the news in the mainland and the comments on the Internet today. In addition, the media in Taiwan Province should not have anything good to say about me, right?"

These words made Li An a little stuck. He hesitated: "Half and half."

"I think filmmakers just need to make good movies and don't touch topics they shouldn't touch all day long. Also, I don't like to deal with people with crooked butts. It will be very disgusting." Lin Nan said seriously.

Li An nodded and said nothing more. Instead, he sat down and started eating breakfast.

At nine o'clock, after declining Li An's offer to see him off, Lin Nan took the hotel car with two assistants and went to the airport.

Sometimes, it's really a coincidence.

Lin Nan met Zhang Ziyi at the airport, and she also brought her assistant.

But what's even more coincidental is that the two of them were on the same flight.

Even in the first class, there were only the two of them, while several assistants were in the business class.

"Director Lin, your speech yesterday was really shocking and admirable."

Zhang Ziyi has just become the second Grand Slam Best Actress in Chinese films, and she seems to have regained some of her former fighting spirit and ambition.

"Thank you." Lin Nan nodded and smiled.

His main purpose for this trip was to participate in public relations for the movie "The Invisible Guest", and Zhang Ziyi's purpose was similar.

As a member of the Oscar Academy, she holds a precious vote and is also a guest of major film studios during the awards season.

"Don't worry, Director Lin, when the finalists vote, I will definitely vote for "The Invisible Guest"."

Zhang Ziyi took the initiative to find a topic and expressed his stance to Lin Nan.

"Then, I have to thank you."

"Director Lin is so polite. We are all on our own side and support each other."

Zhang Ziyi had a smile on his face and spoke very seriously. This scene seemed a little touching to Lin Nan.

Sure enough, people who can get into the limelight have some thoughts. As for which one is more or less, it depends on who Zhang Ziyi compares with.

…

During the nearly 12-hour flight, Lin Nan forced herself to sleep for eight hours. When the plane was about to land, she was woken up by Zhang Ziyi.

The weather was very nice today, and my sunglasses blocked the slightly dazzling morning sun.

Outside the airport, Tom was calling Lin Nan from a distance, and Zhang Ziyi also had a vehicle to pick him up.

"Director Lin, see you at the cocktail party."

"Well, I'll see you over wine."

Zhang Ziyi originally wanted to walk over and say hello to Tom, the actual manager of Crystal Pictures, but then thought that this might be inappropriate, so she gave up.

But after getting in the car, she immediately posted a Weibo post.

It was a photo of her and Lin Nan in the first class cabin, with the text:

"I am very happy to fly from the Golden Horse to Hollywood on the same flight as Director Lin Nan. I wish Director Lin's "The Invisible Guest" a great box office success, a smooth awards season, and a successful Olympic bid!"

At this time in China, it is just after nine o'clock in the evening.

Zhang Ziyi's Weibo instantly attracted the attention of the media and netizens, and quickly made the headlines of film and television entertainment news.

Lin Nan sat in the car, listening to Tom's nagging.

"Lin, Lionsgate's publicity has been done well, and we only have to wait for the official opening of the movie in a few days. Our first public relations reception is also scheduled for the opening day."

The public relations expenses of 15 million US dollars are about to be spent like water, and there will only be less reimbursement and no more refunds!

"Leon, you must be very excited, right?" Lin Nan teased.

"Haha, of course. He is always full of expectations and yearning for Oscar, and his enthusiasm far exceeds his love for supermodel girls."

Tom also made a joke about Leonardo. Everyone knows that Leonardo DiCaprio loves supermodels, but he loves the Golden Man even more.

After so many years of loving the new and hating the old, Leonardo has had countless women around him, but he has remained "unswervingly loyal" to Oscar!

"Let's go, take me back to Beverly Hills first, and then make an appointment with them for dinner in the evening."

"That's good, Leon and the others definitely have time." Tom responded.

…………

Many Oscar-winning films are released in November and December, and the competition is extremely fierce.

On the way back to the villa in the car, Lin Nan saw many promotional posters for the movie.

Among them are Disney's "Frozen" and its own "The Invisible Guest". The two movies were released only four days apart.

This movie city has entered the awards season with 24 hours of non-stop receptions and parties.

After returning to the villa and putting away the luggage, employees from Crystal Pictures took Lin Nan's two accompanying assistants to arrange the hotel.

Lin Nan lay down on the sofa and began to contact several leading actors.

"Lin, are you here?"

"Yes Leon, let's have dinner tonight."

"Okay, I just came out from Director Martin's side. I will be very busy during this awards season. Haha..."

He said he was busy, but there was no complaint in his tone, but he was extremely excited.

Lin Nan was in a daze for a few seconds before reacting: "Oh, I remember it. Your "The Wolf of Wall Street" will also be released at the end of December, on Christmas Day!"

"Yes, that's right."

"Then you are indeed busy. It seems that I have to focus on Jessica Chastain and Naomi Watts." Lin Nan said with a smile.

"Don't worry, I will be energetic enough to take care of both movies."

…

At six o'clock in the evening, when the main creators of "The Invisible Guest" gathered for dinner, it happened to be early nine o'clock in the morning here in China.

There are a lot of eye-catching news in the film and television information of major media.

"Directed by Director Lin Nan and produced by Liu Yifei, starring Han Sanping, Zhang Hanyu, Huang Xiaoming, Fan Bingbing and others, the movie "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" successfully passed the review and received a release permit..."

Many companies in the circle were a little bit cursed when they thought of the news that reporters reported that Lin Nan personally went to the General Administration for review a few days ago.

Only six days have passed, and a movie has been reviewed and announced separately? !

Even if it's a back door, a green light, or special treatment, you should keep a low profile!

So naked, what do you think?

The relationship between "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom" is yours, and the other movies are all your stepmothers?

The film market in November was completely drained by the last two imported films, "Gravity" and "The Hunger Games 2."

However, this situation has been anticipated by the industry for a long time.

There is a dazzling array of information on the Internet. Among the newly released film and television information, such a conspicuous and even dazzling one suddenly appeared.

"Noon Sunshine and Lin Nan Pictures also announced that the large-scale period costume conspiracy drama "Nirvana in Fire", jointly produced by the two companies and produced by Noon Sunshine, has been officially approved and casting will begin today..."

This news immediately attracted the attention of all film and television companies, agencies, actors and artists in the industry.

Noon Sunshine was completely born out of Shanying, which is considered the top TV series production team in the industry, not to mention Lin Nan Pictures.

Most importantly, this is a costumed Machiavellian drama!

This is an unchanging truth in the industry that costume dramas make people happy, not to mention costume dramas that are destined to be excellent!

When countless people in the industry received confirmed news from the two companies, they really couldn't calm down.

The original novel has also been translated by various companies and actors.

Everyone discovered that this is not the kind of traditional costumed conspiracy novel.

Instead, it is a popular fictional historical novel that is full of various elements such as rivers and lakes, court, love, revenge, etc., and has a large number of young characters, which is very suitable for making people laugh.

Then, casting, auditioning, recruiting... became the most urgent thoughts in the minds of all insiders.

Companies and actors and artists, while submitting audition resumes in accordance with Noon Sunshine's notice, are thinking of other ways, such as recruiting and informal appointments.

Although Noon Sunshine is responsible for the production and casting, which is a bit strict, but this is the film and television industry, which is about human relations and sophistication, and it is rare to have a truly selfless crew.

Even if it’s difficult to communicate with Sunshine at Noon, isn’t there still Lin Nan Pictures?

No one thinks that Lin Nan Pictures has no power to interfere in casting, absolutely!

Lin Nan, everyone must be out of reach, and there is no hope. After he participated in the Golden Horse and insulted others with his domineering attitude, he never came back and flew directly to Hollywood.

But aren’t Yue Jun and Jiang Yuerou still there?

The most important thing is that Liu Yifei is also in China. To be blunt, this one is more effective with his words than the previous two!

Just like that, after working hard for two days with the crew on promotions, Producer Liu was just about to take a good nap when he was woken up by a barrage of phone calls.

"Oh, I'm so annoyed..."

It was almost 11 o'clock in the morning, Liu Yifei was half asleep and half awake, humming and resentful sounds came from the bed.

After a long time, she got out of the bed, and what she saw was messy long hair and a face that was awake and full of pain and hatred, but it did not lose its beauty at all.

She squinted her eyes, fumbled to turn off her phone, then immediately covered herself with a quilt, shrank down, and fell asleep again...

…………

"Frozen" is officially released in the North American market.

Lin Nan was invited by Disney and attended a premiere event.

After returning, he devoted himself to the preparations for "The Invisible Guest" and the public relations reception.

“The public relations company has screened out Academy judges who are interested in this type of film, as well as Academy members who can be won over, and has sent invitations and gifts.

It is impossible for many judges to come to a cocktail party. After all, according to the rules of the academy, each academy member can only attend a maximum of three public relations receptions before each vote, and they will also carefully consider where to go. "

"Is this why a movie requires so many cocktail parties?" Lin Nan asked with interest.

"Yes, this is how PR receptions are played during awards season."

Tom replied with a smile. During the awards season every year, he always hangs out at the parties of various crews and has close contact with many actresses. He is rich in experience!

"Tom, your smile is a bit lewd?"

"Huh? Really, no." Tom shook his head.

Lin Nan didn't say much, turned around and prepared to go to the second floor of Crystal Pictures to record the VCR for Ning Hao.

After all, China enters December 15 hours earlier than Hollywood, and the premiere of "No Man's Land" is on the 1st and the release is on the 3rd.

Half an hour later, Lin Nan sent a five-minute short video to Liu Yifei via email, which was considered as a promise.

…………

Time flies by and it’s 3 days. China took the lead in entering December 1st.

"Disney's 3D animated movie "Frozen," with Liu Yifei participating in the dubbing performance, was released in the North American market for three days, and the box office revenue in the first weekend was US$66.71 million..."

When Liu Yifei arrived at the premiere of "No Man's Land" on behalf of herself and Lin Nan, she was congratulated by many fellow actors in the industry.

Ning Hao, who used to be carefree, rarely became red-eyed when he led several leading actors to speak on stage.

No one made fun of him because this movie was really not easy.

The review process was stuck for four years, with countless modifications and deletions. In the end, the ending was reshot as a last resort.

"By the way, Director Lin sent a VCR from Hollywood. Yifei just gave it to me, but I haven't read it yet. Can you guys take a look together?"

"good."

"have a look."

…

When the short video was projected on the big screen, Ning Hao regretted it.

"I guess Director Ning Hao will cry today, right? If he didn't cry, I would really be sorry for the more than four years of suffering, and I would be sorry for my Tiangong Colorful Equipment. I spent so long in vain without even paying a penny! Haha... …”

The opening of Lin Nan's VCR made everyone present laugh. Even though Liu Yifei had watched it at home, it was still a bit funny when watching it on the big screen.

"...Have you ever seen a director act crazy? I have seen it. Ning Hao followed the devil during that time and had sex with the film bureau, but it was obvious that he was 'ravaged' miserably.

I heard from the sister that Ning Hao would often hide alone and secretly wipe his tears. At that time, Huang Bo specially sent me photos, and I will show them to you below..."

"His uncle, turn it off quickly, turn it off..."

Ning Hao shouted amidst the cheers of the audience, so that the hundreds of people present could not see his embarrassment.

"Yifei, you and Lin Nan are not authentic."

Turning around, Ning Hao looked at Liu Yifei in the first row and pretended to be angry.

"It's okay, haha..."

…………

North American time, December 1st.

The movie "The Invisible Guest" is officially released.

At the same time, Lin Nan, together with Leonardo, Naomi Watts, Jessica Chastain and other film creators.

In the name of three companies including Crystal Pictures, Appian Trail, and Lions Gate, the first movie reception, commonly known as a public relations reception, was held in Hollywood.

The company responsible for the public relations business provides assistance.

The guests at the scene included Nolan, James Wan, Matt Damon, Ryan Reynolds... Lin Nan's friends from Lionsgate, Warner, Disney, etc., as well as many Hollywood actors and filmmakers... The most important thing , those dozens of academy members.

For the first public relations reception, all the guests combined totaled more than 230 people, which was not a small scale.
