Chapter 1049 "Old Wang" Became "Old Song", And Jinlian Changed Her Surname to "Ma"!
In the evening breeze, Wang Changtian and Lin Nan talked about "Secret Fruit".
But they had not chatted for a moment when Wang Baoqiang came back quickly, with a barely forced smile on his face.
Although he was trying hard to hide it, his increasingly pale complexion and the anxiety and resentment between his eyebrows were nakedly reflected in the eyes of the two people, and they could see it all at a glance.
"Director Lin, Director Wang, I have to say sorry tonight. There is something urgent at home, and I have to rush back now. Another day, another day... I will definitely apologize to Director Lin and Director Wang in person... Now, I really have something urgent, so I have to say goodbye now..."
Lin Nan is a big director, and Wang Changtian is an old fox. How could the two of them not see Wang Baoqiang's current state?
His face was pale and yellow, and even his lips were bloodless. He spoke with a tremor, as if he was still suppressing the anger in his heart... What happened? !
"The wrap-up banquet prepared for you is a small matter. Family matters are more important. Go back quickly. If you need any help, feel free to call me and Lin Nan. Don't hesitate."
Wang Changtian reacted quickly and spoke immediately.
"Yes, call me anytime." Lin Nan nodded in agreement, not caring too much. After all, who doesn't have some urgent matters at home.
"Thank you, Mr. Wang, thank you, Director Lin. Then I'll leave first. I'll apologize in person another day, another day..."
After apologizing again and again, Wang Baoqiang immediately took his assistant and others and left without looking back; judging from his appearance, it was indeed an urgent matter, because his pace was a little faster.
"Since he's gone, let's eat together. Anyway, there's nothing else to do at the moment. But it's strange to say that there was an emergency at his home, why didn't his wife call? What kind of thing is it that his agent's wife notified him of an emergency? Could it be that they are having an affair? Haha... Just kidding..."
Wang Changtian's words were like a blow to the head, knocking Lin Nan directly to his seat! He was completely upset, and his mind was in turmoil. "Adultery? Is it... today?"
"Pick up your chopsticks, why are you distracted? If I were you, you should have brought Yifei with you today, or you could pack her some midnight snacks to take back?"
"Boss Wang, Yifei didn't want to come. Also, let's go, don't eat, I'm afraid something is going to happen!" Lin Nan smiled helplessly.
"Something? What could happen?" Wang Changtian didn't take it seriously, and laughed and complained.
Faced with this rhetorical question, Lin Nan really didn't know how to answer for a while. After a simple wording in his mind, he spoke:
"Wang Baoqiang is from the countryside and not from a professional background. He has survived all the hardships in the industry. His psychological quality and ability to withstand blows are definitely top-notch;
But Mr. Wang, think about how he looked just now. He was at a loss in front of us and even lost his mind... Is this really a small matter? Although he may have recovered now, and even unusually calm, the "urgent matter" he mentioned must not be a small matter!"
Hearing this, Wang Changtian frowned slightly and put down his chopsticks:
"A call from the agent's wife? Is there something wrong with the company? Or is there something wrong with the agent? Or is there something wrong with both? It can't be that his wife and children are in trouble, right?"
Fuck! Lin Nan looked at Wang Changtian and really wanted to curse him. An old fox is an old fox. To reach the level of Lao Wang, Director Lin felt that he still needed to accumulate experience.
"Let's go, Director Wang. Maybe what you just said will come true."
"What sentence?"
"You told him: If you need any help, call me anytime..."
After that, Lin Nan stood up and told his assistant: "Pack two small cakes for me and take them away."
"Okay, Director Lin."
Wang Changtian also stood up, his expression a little serious:
"If something really happened to him, would it affect "Buddhist in India"? After all, it is scheduled to be released during the Spring Festival, and the post-production has not started yet."
"I don't know, wait for his news."
At around nine o'clock in the evening, Lin Nan returned home. At this time, Liu Yifei was naturally still awake.
She was wearing a vest and hot pants, curled up on the sofa playing a small game and waiting for someone; her mutton-fat skin was shining and dazzling under the light.
After seeing Lin Nan's figure, her eyes suddenly lit up, "You're back so early? I thought you'd be gone after 10 o'clock."
"Isn't it good to come back early to accompany you? Here, I brought your favorite small cake. If you don't mind gaining weight, you can have a few bites."
"Tsk, I'm giving you face with reluctance."
Liu Yifei raised her head and began to be arrogant again. However, the happy smile on her face was enough to fully explain her mood at the moment, which was very good. Well, I am very satisfied with Director Lin!
At night, it was very sweet, like a cake on the lips; and the sound in the villa was also very greasy, like honey...
When the moon was at its zenith, some people hugged each other and fell asleep early. But some people didn't, such as someone who received a call and left in a hurry not long after the reception began.
He brought a large group of men and women and violently broke the door of the hotel room. There were several mobile phones beside him recording the whole process. There was a pair of naked "familiar faces" in the room!
Shouting, cursing, scolding... no physical fight...
The man was trembling as he put on his clothes, while the woman seemed much calmer.
She turned her back to the camera and put on her panties and tube top while cursing... her flushed skin had turned pale, and she simply broke the jar...
…………
Early in the morning, there was a nationwide sensation from the film and television circles to the entire Internet, and even to Hong Kong and Taiwan!
The reason is that the newly promoted "Director Wang" who just completed his filming published a "Divorce Statement" of several hundred words on Weibo at 0:20 in the morning.
He told the whole country in great detail and nakedly that he had been betrayed and stabbed in the back by two of his closest people;
He decided to unilaterally end his marriage, sue for divorce, immediately terminate his position as an agent, call the police...check the company's finances...please the media not to disturb his children and parents.
As an actor with a grassroots background, well-known to the whole people, and very popular with the audience, the public opinion caused by this Weibo can be said to be comparable to a storm, and its influence is unparalleled.
And the live "rape catching" video that was "unintentionally leaked" by the staff on the Internet put him directly on the commanding heights of morality and public opinion, and gained the sympathy of the entire Internet and even the general public!
While countless people were complaining about "Stupid Gener", they were also violently bullying the couple online.
Lin Nan was woken up from bed by a phone call. To be honest, getting up at seven in the morning is really uncomfortable. But the things outside are so big, he can't afford it.
Even Liu Yifei, who was half asleep, woke up a lot when she heard what happened. Then she kicked Lin Nan out of bed and urged him to go to the company.
At nine o'clock in the morning, Director Lin was sitting in the office yawning. Opposite him were Wang Changtian and Ning Hao.
"It means that after he separated from us, he went straight to catch the rapist. There was only two or three hours between us! To be honest, I admire his decisiveness, determination and candor.
This kind of thing is not uncommon in the industry, but no one has ever spoken out publicly like him. They are all trying to save face or suffer the consequences. As everyone knows, sincerity is the most touching thing, and being secretive is not beautiful.
Wang Changtian nodded and did not hesitate to praise.
"So it was his agent's wife who tipped him off? This is really interesting, ha, wonderful!" Ning Hao pursed his lips and smiled silently.
"From the time the rape was caught to the declaration of divorce, it only took an hour at most. It's worthy of my character to get to where I am today. Well, there should be some wise men in the team." Lin Nan's tone was very sure.
"Stealing the boss's wife, embezzling public funds, embezzling and dereliction of duty, transferring assets... This agent can do it. He treats Baoqiang as working for him!"
What Wang Changtian was talking about was other things that the agent's wife reported.
"Director Wang, when did he call you?" Lin Nan asked.
"It was past six o'clock, and he had already called the police. His personal account, his wife's account, his agent's account and his company's account will all be frozen today. After all, it involves job embezzlement...
He asked me to borrow an emergency loan of 6 million to fight the lawsuit and maintain the operation of the company for the next period of time... He even proactively promised me on the phone that he would not delay the post-production and production of "Havoc in Tianzhu" Released. Hey, he really has nothing to say! "Wang Changtian sighed again.
"Let Director Yue come here." Looking at the assistant at the door, Lin Nan ordered.
Under the puzzled looks of Wang Changtian and Ning Hao, Yue Jun quickly came over from his office, "Director Lin?"
"Take someone to find Baoqiang and tell him that we will fully support him. There is no need to worry about lawyers, funds or public opinion...he will definitely win,"
Hearing Lin Nan's words, Yue Jun smiled and nodded:
"Okay, I'll go right away. Also, Director Lin, our movie "Detective Chinatown" is popular again. Isn't there a scene in it where "Tang Ren" was raped by his brother on his wedding day..."
"Haha, good guy, you really rise to the occasion!" Ning Hao really couldn't help it.
"Please tell me something. He can borrow Guangguang's resources at will. If the woman wants to make a comeback, she will definitely retaliate for domestic violence, tax evasion, etc. But he shouldn't be that kind of person!"
Yue Jun left with the mission, and there were only three people left in the office.
Suddenly, a strange expression appeared on Ning Hao's face, and he looked at Lin Nan and Wang Changtian: "Speaking of which, this incident should earn him enough sympathy from the public. Then wouldn't it also increase the box office of your movie?"
"Director Ning, is it a little too unreasonable to have such an idea now?" Lin Nan glared at Ning Hao angrily, who smiled and waved his hands repeatedly.
"It is indeed a bit unorthodox, but what Ning Hao said is also very reasonable. Isn't 'sympathy' a special 'feeling'? It can make the public go into the theater and support that "silly guy".
It's just a pity that no matter how much the box office is after this movie is released, Bao Qiang's share will be half of that of their "Ma Jinlian"! "Wang Changtian sighed, quite sad.
Hearing this, Lin Nan and Ning Hao looked at each other, okay, this is indeed a disgusting thing.
outside world.
For one morning, Wang Baoqiang's experience was the most popular on the Internet, suppressing all news on the Internet.
All media outlets are following the report, and a large number of paparazzi entertainment reporters have been dispatched to protect him and his company regardless of the cost.
And under the indignation and ridicule of the majority of netizens: "Old Wang" finally became "Old Song", and Jin Lian finally changed his surname to "Ma"!
Thinking of this, Ren Zhonglun felt aggrieved.
He was really frustrated because today's good IPO roadshow didn't stir up much. The media and the whole network were all focused on gossip.
"There are less than three days left, I really don't want to consider it. You're retired now, and I, your mortal enemy, gave you some benefits, and you still pretend to be noble?"
Glancing at Ren Zhonglun, Han Sanping still shook his head: "No money, all the family assets were used to buy China Film's stocks."
Hearing this, Chairman Ren's face instantly turned bad: "It's true that the dead are all China Film's people, you are useless when you are given a chance... How far has the Navy's "Operation Red Sea" progressed?"
"I was wondering why you came to my house after the roadshow today, it turns out you are "If you are too nice to someone without any reason, you are either a traitor or a thief!"
"Look at you, this tone is not the way to treat guests."
Ren Zhonglun pointed at Han Sanping and began to talk about other things; then he started to complain about La Peikang:
"When I was filming Sky Hunter, I didn't know about it, so I was excluded by him. But I was present at Operation Red Sea this time. Even so, he still wanted to exclude me, how come he didn't die of starvation?"
Han Sanping opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything; La Peikang was learning from him, but he didn't learn it in a proper way.
"On the 26th, the Film Bureau."
Hearing the answer he wanted, Ren Zhonglun's eyes suddenly sparkled, "On the 26th? Haha, Lao Han, I will be there on time!"
"Where are you going, Uncle Ren?"
Han Jianu rubbed her dark circles and appeared at the stairs, scaring Ren Zhonglun, "You, are you going to steal at night?"
"Well, isn't it just staying up late to steal?" Han Sanping glared at Xiao Han unhappily.
"Hehe, just these few days, just these few days. Speaking of which industry bigwigs will be on the stage when the bell rings the day after tomorrow, Uncle Ren?"
Han Jianu decisively changed the subject. Her script will be completely finished in the next two days, but she wants to present it on the 25th.
Speaking of the guests on the day of the bell ringing, Ren Zhonglun's face instantly had a smile:
"You will know when the time comes. In terms of the guests and shareholders in the industry, they are definitely more famous than China Film. I am not as thick-skinned as La Peikang. I asked the leaders to come to the platform. What's going on?"
...
14th, 15th.
For two consecutive days, the entertainment headlines of the entire network were still about Wang, Song, and Ma. They were as stable as Mount Tai, and no new information could shake their position.
And early in the morning of the 16th, people in the circle had to search for a long time under the news list before they could see the movie information they wanted to know.
"Line Walker" was released for 5 days and cut 360 million;
"Love O2O" and "The Great Wall" were much worse, closing at 180 million and 120 million respectively in 4 days, and both gave the industry a daily box office that was about to stall at any time and would not go far!
At this time, many movies in September seemed to be anxious. Promotional conferences began to gather, and invitations to premieres were everywhere.
"Zhen Zidan?"
Lin Nan saw the news about Zhen Zidan's new film press conference. He, Wang Jing, Liu Dehua and others jointly produced the film, which was jointly produced by Yindu Group and Bona Film Group, and supervised, directed and written by Wang Jing. The film "Chasing the Dragon" was adapted from the old Hong Kong films "Limping Ho" and "Inspector Lei Lao Hu"!
"Pure Hong Kong films are becoming increasingly fading. The Academy Awards Committee believes that every former "big shot" should be cherished, so this is why Zhen Zidan is one of the protagonists again."
Lin Nan didn't know what to say. Huo Wenxi actually called him and explained to him.
"It doesn't matter. We can't just keep fighting after someone asked for a high price. That would make us look like we have no magnanimity or vision. By the way, how is Ip Man 4 going?"
"Director Lin, we have just finished half of the post-production. It should be completed by the end of October."
"That's fine. You can contact the Film Bureau for the release date and publicity."
"Okay, Director Lin, then we will make subsequent plans according to the May Day schedule."
"Okay."
Hang up the phone and checked the time. It was 11 o'clock in the morning, and we could get off work.
"Director Ning, are you going to leave?"
Looking at Ning Hao who was editing the post-production seriously, Lin Nan called out.
"No, why go back so early? Ask someone to order food for me. I'll eat at Tiangong Color at noon." Director Ning didn't even look at Lin Nan, and just ordered casually.
Yes, I guessed that this was not addicted to work, but just didn't want to go home.
"You heard me, arrange a big meal for Director Ning at noon to replenish his yang energy." Lin Nan joked to the middle-level manager behind him, who immediately held back his laughter and nodded.
"Fuck you, you are the one who needs to replenish your yang energy."
"Don't make excuses for Sister Na, saying that I forced you to stay..." Waving his hand behind him, Director Lin left the Tiangong Colors.
Online, the latest entertainment gossip has landed on the top of the hot search list.
In the morning, Wang Baoqiang formally filed a lawsuit with the court through a lawyer - divorce. It's really done as soon as he said it, without any drag!
However, just as Wang Changtian said, the woman is really not a quiet one;
Because she has begun to "fight back", domestic violence, extramarital affairs and other hats are all put on Wang Baoqiang's head, but she can only cry and shout on the Internet, and can't produce any evidence.
"Mr. Jiang couldn't get through to you, so she called me here. Nortel's school term starts at the end of the month, and I'd like to ask if you're free then."
"If he asks that, then I don't have time. Haha..." Lin Nan leaned over and kissed Liu Yifei, and then said with a smile.
"Then you can reply yourself, I won't go."
With a flowery smile, Miss Liu rolled her eyes, and there was a hint of amorous feelings in the corner of Miss Liu's eyebrows.
"Okay, give him face and call him back to ask."
Leaning next to Liu Yifei, Lin Nan used her mobile phone to call back, because the last bit of power in her mobile phone was used on Huo Wenxi's call.
"Good guy, it's really hard to find you!"
"Then let's stop looking for him." Lin Nan liked to be straightforward with Lao Jiang and didn't need to think too much about what he said.
"Haha, you are causing trouble for me. Forget it, the opening ceremony is not a big deal, it is not important. Let's talk about Jia Zhangke's Pingyao International Film Festival. Is that the name?"
"Yes, that's it. What's wrong?" Lin Nan was a little curious, why did Lao Jiang suddenly talk about this matter.
"This morning, the school received the above documents, and the film festival has been officially approved."
"Have the documents been sent to the school?"
"Nonsense, as one of the three major art schools, isn't Nortel not qualified to receive the above documents?
In fact, the main reason is that this film festival was initiated by Jia Zhangke, and most of the co-initiators are from Nortel, just like you, Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Director Tian...
So I am now officially informing you that you must attend the subsequent kick-off meeting. There is no reason for the sponsor to be absent! And our school is the organizer of the Pingyao International Film Festival launch conference and large-scale media conference... Well, the specific launch time will be notified later, but the first Pingyao International Film Festival will definitely be held normally next year. "
Lin Nan looked at Liu Yifei and curled her lips. There were so many things going on.
"You are the leader, hee hee..."
"I can smell the sour smell of dog food through the phone. As an old man like me, I can't stand it, so I hung up."
Liu Yifei didn't feel embarrassed when Lao Jiang gave him a nod. Instead, she thought he had a "wink".
…
Whenever something big and eye-catching happens in the industry, it is almost impossible to keep it a secret.
Just like in the case of Wang Baoqiang, the entire circle saw Wang Changtian and Lin Nan providing support and help from behind.
In addition, Wang Baoqiang naturally stands on the commanding heights in terms of emotion, reason, and law, so the entire industry has a consensus that this is a "farce" that is destined to end from the beginning.
Of course, this is also Wang Baoqiang’s own big joke.
Afternoon, Hong Kong Island, Anle Pictures.
Recalling what happened in "Monster Hunt" last year, Jiang Zhiqiang is still angry.
The 29 movie theaters under Anle will become extremely depressed and suffer heavy losses as long as Lin Nan Films' movies are released in this year... The dropped revenue is money lost!
"Director Jiang, all the main creators have signed contracts."
"Master, are you optimistic about your future?" Jiang Zhiqiang did not respond, but asked about the "auspicious day".
"The day after tomorrow is a good day for the announcement of the project. As for the start-up, the master said that it is best to start after the National Day, when the start-up is best..."
The secretary lowered his body and answered.
He knew very well that his boss was troubled by the mainlanders last year, so this year he would pay special attention to the matter of project approval and filming dates... In the past, he would not take the initiative to ask questions in person. At most, he would listen to the crew leader. report.
"Okay, let's get ready. There will be a project press conference the day after tomorrow to announce the film-related matters. Inform Wei Zai and the others to arrive on time."
"Okay, Director Jiang."
When Jiang Zhiqiang was the only one left in the office, he couldn't help but think of Lin Nan again, "What bad luck!"
