That year Huayu

"Following the end of January, Director Lin Nan once again cashed out Huayi shares at high levels in the secondary market, with the transaction amount reaching more than 52 million yuan."

"According to Huayi's response, this transaction is indeed the second time Director Lin Nan has sold the group's shares. It is a normal transaction and has no other reason."

"According to statistics, within four months, Director Lin Nan sold Huayi shares at high prices twice, with a total transaction amount of 220 million yuan..."

Since morning, this has been the headline news in the film and television and entertainment circles.

To be honest, Lin Nan quite admired Huayi's operation.

Although Wang Zhonglei has not disclosed to the outside world how many shares Lin Nan still has, he has repeatedly emphasized in front of the media the fact that Lin Nan still owns a large number of original shares.

And he also hinted to reporters that Lin Nan would definitely not completely clear out his stock. This will stabilize the morale of the military.

Director Lin Da updated Weibo at 9 a.m.:

"Don't ask me why, just ask, it's just four words: improve your life!"

Many people in the industry were joking and joking on Lin Nan's Weibo.

He said he was too lazy to even make up the reasons, so he just copied and pasted them from last time.

"I just want to know what kind of life Director Lin usually spends, drinking and meat? Tsk, tsk, tsk, tsk."

"Well, as Lin Nan's classmate and good friend, I testify that he lives a life like a 'wine pool and meat forest'. He doesn't even bring anyone with him!"

"Lao Zhu, I think your method of spreading rumors will soon disappear from Director Lin and Yifei's communications or be blocked. I'm looking forward to it. Haha."

"The thighs are there, and as for the person holding the thighs, they can be replaced!"

"I'm the only one who thinks that Director Lin is saving up for a gift?"

"Let me go, Yifei's betrothal gift is so high?"

"What are you talking about? Our Sissi has a lot of dowry!"

…

Lin Nan's chat on Weibo went off the rails more and more. Even Liu Yifei, who was lying in bed and didn't want to get up, couldn't help but join in the fun:

"Don't talk nonsense, I don't need any gift. Because, it's all mine. Hahaha..."

As soon as the news came out, Miss Liu was caught by a group of people, followed by a burst of ridicule.

At the same time, Lin Nan was in the office, looking at the banquet invitation sent by Hai Run.

The latter's backdoor transaction was successful at the beginning of the month and is in the process of restructuring. It will only wait for the official stock sale one month later.

"It has only been less than 5 months. What Xiao Ma failed to accomplish, Hai Run did."

"After all, we don't have the ability to go public independently, so we can only go public through a backdoor, or through a backdoor company that produces bearings."

Yue Jun's tone was slightly contemptuous. Lin Nan nodded and agreed with his words.

Going public independently is the most difficult, but it also represents the strength and potential of a company.

The most intuitive manifestation is that independently listed companies basically have a much higher market value and are more favored by investors.

"The film and television industry has ushered in the era of capital operation..."

"Hey, Sun Li is actually the largest individual shareholder, accounting for 2.61%!"

Lin Nan glanced at the public notice document that Hai Run had just issued, and then he figured it out. After all, she was the first sister.

"Director Lin, our company really doesn't consider it?"

"What are the people below talking about again?" Lin Nan raised his head and asked.

"Well, we are discussing, and outsiders are also asking about our intentions."

Yue Jun said truthfully, his smile was a little helpless, he was very annoyed.

"It's been several years, but my answer remains the same: Lin Nan Pictures is not considering going public."

Lin Nan said for sure.

Other film and television companies need to go public for capital operations, but Lin Nan Pictures does not.

"Okay, then I'll deal with them like this later."

…………

A week passed in a hurry.

The Hollywood science fiction blockbuster "X-Men: Days of Future Past" is officially released.

The first week box office results of "The Invisible Guest" and "The Return" were also reported by the media.

"Directed by Zhang Yimou, the movie "Return" earned a box office of 151 million in the first week and has a stable reputation."

"Directed by director Lin Nan, the foreign language film "The Invisible Guest" grossed 241 million at the box office in its first week, showing full box office potential."

""The Amazing Spider-Man 2" has exceeded 500 million within 20 days of its release..."

"The 17th Shanghai Magic City International Film Festival will open on the 14th of next month. Gong Li is the chairman of the jury for the main competition unit of the Golden Goblet Award..."

…

At the beginning of the year, an Oscar trophy and "Taking Tiger Mountain" with a box office of 2.053 billion brought Lin Nan honors, but also a lot of troubles.

No, although he didn't sign up for the Magic City International Film Festival, the Magic City official invited him by name.

At least during the film festival, those unit activities such as professional forums, dialogues between Chinese and foreign filmmakers, and film and television industry exchange conferences, etc., kept contacting Lin Nan.

"We can't avoid it this year, so let's go there."

Lin Nan asked someone to reply to the Magic City, and he would arrange time to go there next month.

On the desk, there is the script of "The Secret of the Dragon".

Lin Nan has been considering Wang Changtian and Ye Ning's proposal two days ago.

Today he made a decision. He can submit the script for review first. If it is approved, he will start preparations for the project.

After the assistant left the office with the script of "Searching for the Dragon", Lin Nan called Wang Changtian.

"I've been waiting for your reply for the past two days, how about it?"

Wang Changtian's voice was full of energy and faintly excited.

"I'll arrange for someone to take it to the film bureau for review. If the script can be approved, I'll do it." Lin Nan answered in the affirmative.

"good!"

Wang Changtian was overjoyed at first, and then thought of a question:

"With your current status, you will definitely not be able to make this kind of movie. So who will be the director this time?"

"There is no rush to consider these things. Even if the script is approved, the preparation work will still take a lot of time. After all, the landforms and scenes in the novel must be restored as much as possible."

"That's right, then there's no rush. Also, let me tell you that the filming and production permit for "Running Man" has been obtained."

Hearing this, Lin Nan suddenly felt more at ease.

Applying for a filming permit for a variety show, especially an outdoor reality show, is much more troublesome than applying for a filming permit for a movie or TV series.

"Then let the project team speed up the progress and start filming the first season as soon as possible."

…

After hanging up the phone, Lin Nan thought about "Ghost Blows Out the Lamp" again.

It is impossible to shoot a movie in the order of the novel, because it is necessary to show the most content in a limited time and make money.

So the movie script had to be adapted, and the plot from the novel had to be selected, and finally "The Secret of the Dragon" was decided upon.

"In fact, the most suitable way for this kind of novel is to make it into a TV series, no, it is a web series, not a movie.

Only web dramas can adapt the original plot as little as possible. If you want to enter the theater, you have to go under the knife, which is unpleasant both inside and outside. "

Lin Nan muttered something softly, and suddenly, an idea flashed through his mind.

"Reba, it should be able to be stuffed into "The Secret of the Dragon", right?!"

…………

As expected, Fan Bingbing, who played a role in "X-Men: Days of Future Past", was besieged by trolls again, saying that she had disgraced the Chinese people!

But it is undeniable that this movie is worthy of being a Hollywood science fiction blockbuster.

On the first day of its release, the first-day box office directly cut off 66 million, and even the box office on the second day soared to 96 million, which was a mess!

With just over a week left in May, Lin Nan chose to take a day off at home instead of going to the company.

In the morning, Yue Jun made a phone call, and then went to represent Lin Nan Pictures to attend a conference jointly organized by the Copyright Administration, the Cyberspace Administration of China, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Ministry of Public Security and other departments.

To be honest, Lin Nan was quite curious about the specific content of this meeting. After all, there was no news about it in the media, and Han Sanping also spoke in general terms at the time.

"You're just sitting there watching, right?"

Just as Lin Nan was wandering away, Liu Yifei's dissatisfied voice came from the distance.

She crossed her arms and hugged her chest, bulging her cheeks and "glaring" at Lin Nan. There were several bags of cat and dog food at her feet, and she was already surrounded by people.

"Haha, you should call me."

Lin Nan sat up from the swing chair and walked towards Liu Yifei.

"It's because you don't have the eyesight to see. I've been busy for a long time." Miss Liu rolled her eyes.

"Okay, Princess Sissi, thank you for your hard work. I will do the rest."

"Together, I didn't call you just to be lazy."

Liu Yifei raised her head proudly, her high ponytail swaying gently, her fair and delicate face under the sun was glowing with a layer of crystal glow, like a person walking out of an oil painting, which made people look lost.

…

The Cannes Film Festival ended quietly because there were no Chinese-language films in the official competition section of the festival.

Even "The Return" only went to the non-competition screening section.

However, Wu Yusen's "The Peace Wheel" and Jiang Wen's "One Step Away" stole the show.

The film festival officials erected huge promotional posters for these two films in the most conspicuous location in Cannes.

People who don’t know may think that these are two epic films that are about to be released globally.

But speaking of it, these two people are indeed not modest. Jiang Wen and Wu Yusen made it clear during interviews that their movies would be masterpieces!

Lin Nan wanted to laugh a little when he saw the news.

He knew that Jiang Wen had this kind of character, but why did Wu Yusen dare to say this? His last "epic blockbuster" "Red Cliff" is still on the list of bad movies!

…

"Director Lin, "Nirvana in Fire" will be finished in the next two days."

Nearly four months had passed since the phone was turned on, and Hou Hongliang finally called.

"As for post-editing, please leave it to the noon sun." Lin Nan said politely.

"This is what it should be. We are going to hold a closing banquet in Hengdian. Do you want Director Lin to send someone over?"

This problem really made Lin Nan a little worried. He didn't go when the movie was started. If he didn't go to the wedding banquet again, it would be a bit too serious.

But Lin Nan didn't want to go. It was already the second day of Yue Jun's meeting and it wasn't over yet... Suddenly, he thought of Jiang Yuanrou.

"Director Jiang is on the set of "A Thousand Bones" in Hengdian. I'll ask her to go over to attend the closing banquet then."

"That's fine. Speaking of which, everyone is in Hengdian. I haven't met with Producer Jiang yet, haha..."

Lin Nan and Hou Hongliang chatted for a long time, and the latter promised to accept Lin Nan's recommendation for future film and television castings for Noon Sunshine.

Lin Nan is quite satisfied with this promise, and people around him will have many good places to go in the future.

The film and television industry is about to change!

In just one night, major news media, Weibo headlines, and the state-run media were all reporting on one thing.

The entire film and television industry, the Internet industry, and major video websites have all turned their attention to this, because it is related to the vital interests of several industries.

"The National Copyright Administration, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, the Cyberspace Administration of China, the Ministry of Public Security and other departments will jointly enforce the law, and the 'Sword Net Operation' will officially start in June."

"Operation Sword Net aims to..."

Early in the morning, Lin Nan was awakened by Yue Jun's call and hurried back to the company.

In the office, Lin Nan was yawning, and Yue Jun was also yawning.

"The meeting was really tiring. I slept all night and my energy and energy were not restored."

It took two whole days, seven to eight hours of conference every day, and it would be strange if it wasn't tiring.

"Tell me, I'm too lazy to read the news. The little words on the news are definitely not as much as what you have heard in the past two days."

Lin Nan leaned on the chair, stretched and asked.

Yue Jun suddenly sat upright and his expression became much more serious.

"Director Lin, you guessed it right. The spring of the film and television industry is here, and the authorities are serious about it. I am afraid that film and television piracy will really disappear this time."

"In the past, when we talked about combating piracy, it was just a big thunder but a small rain. After a month or two, it was neither a root cause nor a temporary solution."

"But this time it's different. The entire industry was called to a meeting, and the leaders made it clear:

This year's "Operation Sword Network" will start in six months, and there will not even be an end time. It will be a thunderous sweep, rather than letting go of the wrongdoers, be strict, severe, and kill them all. It will clear all obstacles for Internet companies to enter the film and television industry. From now on, there will be no more film and television piracy..."

Lin Nan swallowed subconsciously as he saw Yue Jun getting more and more excited as he spoke.

He admitted that this was a huge good thing for the film and television industry, but since then, Internet capital has been able to completely let go of its hands in the film and television industry.

Compared to the Internet industry, the film and television industry is really like a younger brother and can be manipulated and ravaged at will.

The phone on the desk kept vibrating, and text messages were pouring in.

"Hello?"

"Lin Nan, you are so foresighted. Tudou has bought the copyrights of so many movies and TV series. If there is no piracy in the future, we will be rich in resources! Haha..."

Wang Changtian was crazy. He remembered that when Lin Nan wanted to do this, he had questioned whether the TV series he would film in the future would not be as good as these old dramas?

At the moment, I’m happy about the piracy. I’ll watch it later and I’ll be so happy!

"Say hello to Wanda, and then inform Wang Wei to continue to increase the purchase of TV series, movies and other copyrights, and choose the best ones first..."

Lin Nan's voice was slightly trembling. He thought that Youku and other companies would also start doing this, but it was already too late. They were too far behind.

This time Wang Changtian did not hesitate at all and agreed very decisively, "Okay, okay..."

Yue Jun said he was tired and was drinking tea. He looked at Lin Nan and smiled:

"During the conference, starting from the morning of the second day, companies started asking me one after another, wanting to know when Director Lin plans to start financing Tudou. They are all in the film and television industry, Internet companies, and financial institutions."

"Everyone has such a keen sense of smell. Want to know when to start financing? Wait until you have to raise financing."

Lin Nan smiled and asked a riddle.

What he meant by "having to raise funds" was not that you were about to run out of money, but that the external environment forced you to raise funds and go public.

At that time, the market was definitely at its hottest, and it was also the time when Tudou accumulated the most, and everyone recognized its potential and explosive power after its listing.
