Chapter 173: Scheduled, 20 Years Old

Yu Dong has taken over the distribution business of "Blind Mountain".

The news spread quickly.

If there is a first cooperation, there will be a second one.

As a popular commercial film director in China, Lin Nan had many companies eyeing him.

But all along, the people he cooperated with were very fixed, and few others could squeeze in.

This time, Yu Dong of Bona was considered successful.

"Brother Li, are you really not going to consider it again at this time?" Lin Nan asked.

Li Yang has communicated with the people of Bona, and the movie will be released in November.

"Don't think about it. The sooner the audience sees this kind of movie, the better."

Li Yang's words were deafening.

This is how a movie about fighting human trafficking should be.

After watching Li Yang enter the airport, Lin Nan drove back.

He was thinking about a problem. The subject matter of "Blind Mountain" might not be welcomed by the market.

...

After five months of filming.

The Forbidden Kingdom, which has an investment of 70 million yuan, finally announced that it will be completed.

This is what Jackie Chan and Jet Li said in an interview when they left the crew and went to North America to promote "Rush Hour 3" and "Battle Ranger".

"Did you miss me?"

"No."

"Did you miss me?"

"Really not."

"I'll give you one last chance, did you miss me?"

"Yes, yes, okay."

Lin Nan stopped teasing Liu Yifei and admitted decisively.

"Hehe, in a few days, my mother and I will be able to go back."

Liu Yifei was talking about the filming situation in the past two months on the phone.

She was well taken care of by everyone in the crew and often asked questions that she didn't understand during the filming.

Whether it was Jackie Chan or the director, they would patiently explain to her.

"They now call me a hundred thousand whys.

Because I always ask: Why shoot like this? Why act like that? Haha..."

It was really about to wrap up, and Liu Yifei seemed much more lively.

Lin Nan saw an interview with Jet Li.

When he was interviewed by foreign media, he said, "I hope everyone will not have too high expectations for "Double J Project".

This is just an ordinary co-production movie, and it is more about the feelings of Director Mingkov, me and Jackie Chan who want to work together once.

In fact, we don't want to make action movies anymore, because we are old, and the fighting is definitely not as exciting as when we were young..."

Lin Nan couldn't help but sigh, as expected, the leading actor himself understands the movie he made.

The Red Mansion crew, which has been making a lot of noise for a long time, also heard news.

The original chief director Hu Mei was confirmed to no longer be the director of the new version of Red Mansion.

Lin Nan heard some internal news at China Film.

Because Director Hu Mei felt that the people selected from the audition did not meet the temperament of the Red Mansion role, and she did not agree with the requirements of many producers to insert people, and she even wanted to start a new business.

So, the final result was that she was replaced.

Although the person who replaced her was not announced, everyone knew it well, that was Li Shaohong of Rong Xinda.

Then, it should be that each investor arranges their own people to join the group.

I guess at most one or two people will be picked out from the auditions.

Give them a small supporting role to deal with public opinion.

Kang Honglei's script is almost finished.

This drama has many more big scenes than the previous "Soldier Assault".

So much so that Kang Honglei told Lin Nan that he would talk about the production cost after the script is completely completed.

This is to make Lin Nan mentally prepared, as this is a drama with a large investment.

Speaking of TV dramas, "Struggle" in the middle of the year is really popular.

However, Lin Nan is more optimistic about the currently popular "Golden Wedding".

Starring Zhang Guoli and Jiang Wenli, all the supporting roles are also powerful.

It's much better than the fake struggle in "Struggle".

...

The efficiency of the post-production of China Film is very high.

After removing the special effects part, the rest of the content is about to be completed.

Lin Nan also specially pulled the completed part.

The quality fully meets the requirements.

"Director Lin, you see that the Shaolin abbot has started to be a producer. Will Taoist priests also come out to make movies in the future?"

This question stumped him.

"Probably not. A serious Taoist priest is much more low-key and doesn't have such thoughts."

As he said this, Lin Nan leaned over and took a look.

That temple has a new drama again.

There are many people supporting it this time, Hong Jinbao, Tong Kee-lai, Hai Yan...

All are celebrities in the film and television industry. It seems that they really want to become bigger and stronger.

Since the Golden Rooster Award in 2005, Lin Nan has only been to the Golden Eagle TV Festival and the Shanghai Film Festival.

The Golden Eagle is for Liu Yifei, and the Shanghai Film Festival is for the promotion of "Painted Skin" and to give face to Ren Zhonglun.

Hua Biao thought that Lin Nan would no longer refuse this kind of activities, so he sent him an invitation.

The result is obvious. Lin Nan refused.

Facts have proved that the water of domestic film festivals is still so deep. This time it is a double yolk egg.

Two best actor and two best actress.

In order to promote the theme of "Yun Shui Yao", the higher-ups gave Chen Kun and Li Bingbing the Best Actor and Best Actress awards.

Logically, the other two, Fu Dalong and Ding Jiali, should have deserved the awards.

In the end, the honors were evenly divided.

A few days later, "The Forbidden Kingdom" was announced to be completed.

Reporters from all walks of life flocked to the completion ceremony held in Hengdian.

At the same time, the release date of this film in China was also determined, which is the end of April next year.

The goal is very clear, it is for the May Day period.

Lin Nan went to see Han Sanping.

"Are you going to stop thinking about it?"

"They released it at the end of April, and I chose April 1st. There was still about 20 days left in between, so there was almost no competition.

Besides, these two movies are placed one after another in April, so other movies have to consider whether to withdraw from that time period. "

From beginning to end of April, there are commercial blockbusters, which can be regarded as occupying the schedule of that month, and there will be a siphon effect.

Whether it is news reports or film schedules, it is difficult for other films that are not large enough to compete.

Han Sanping thought for a moment and realized what Lin Nan said made sense.

"Since you want this schedule, then it's up to you. But you have to promise to make the film before that time."

"The post-production process is almost complete. The only thing missing is the special effects. I've asked, and there will be no problem before the end of the year."

Lin Nan answered affirmatively.

Following "The King of Kung Fu", the news that "Painted Skin" is scheduled to be released on April 1 next year has also been announced.

Many film companies and media also called China Film to verify, and it turned out to be true.

"Let's change the gears. We won't be here in April..."

"This is driving away other movies..."

Because of the release date of "The King of Kung Fu", many films that originally wanted to be released in April next year are hesitant.

Now there is no need to hesitate and make a decisive decision to change the schedule. If you are stubborn, there is a high probability that you will finish the game.

Hua Yi is very happy. Both movies will benefit from Lin Nan's approach.

Liu Yifei, her daughter and her assistant finally got rid of a group of reporters and got into the car.

"I finally don't have to get up early tomorrow, I'm so happy, haha..."

Liu Xiaoli listened to her daughter's words and smiled fondly.

"Okay, I know you've been working hard for the past six months, so that's it."

Liu Yifei leaned lightly on Liu's mother's shoulder, "Mom has worked hard these past six months."

…

Looking at the many missed calls on his phone, Lin Nan felt that something was going to happen.

Han Sanping called me to a cocktail party last night and drank so much that I slept through it today.

After hurriedly washing up, when she went downstairs, she saw Liu Yifei sitting on the sofa in the living room, hugging her cat.

"It's already 11 o'clock. You promised to pick me up!"

Liu Yifei can hang a soy sauce bottle on her lips.

"It's all my fault, Director Han, for dragging me to socialize and delaying my business."

Lin Nan smiled and squeezed beside Liu Yifei.

The pure white cat meowed and was about to crawl into Lin Nan's arms.

"I kissed you more than I kissed you." Liu Yifei was a little angry.

"Haha, I've been feeding them a lot in the past two months since I came back."

Suddenly remembering something, Lin Nan took Liu Yifei's hand and went to the study.

"what?"

Liu Yifei asked curiously as Lin Nan took out a piece of song and lyrics information.

"Try if you can sing it. This is the ending song of "Painted Skin"."

At this moment, Liu Yifei smiled and curled her eyebrows.

"Let me see, arrange work for me as soon as I come back. I still want to have a good rest..."

The duplicity looks very Liu Yifei.

Lin Nan can guarantee that if he says to find someone else right now, he will most likely be killed.

The two went to the garden in the yard.

Liu Yifei hummed softly.

After a while, she stopped.

"You did it on purpose. I can barely sing the high notes, but the effect is definitely not comparable to that of a professional singer...

This is the ending song of your movie again. I don’t want to mess it up, so I might as well not sing it. "

Liu Yifei frowned slightly. Although she wanted to sing the ending song of Lin Nan's movie, she knew the importance.

"If you don't sing, then help me find a reliable singer." Lin Nan chuckled.

"snort."

Among Liu Yifei's friends, there is only one singer.

She still didn't know what Lin Nan meant. This was a favor, and it was up to her to give it to him.

…

Zhang Liangying never expected that Liu Yifei would give her such a big surprise.

"The effect of my singing on this song is definitely not as good as yours."

"Sissi, you are so humble. We just have our own strengths."

What Zhang Liangying said was very emotional.

She had met Liu Yifei before because she sang the theme song of "The Condor".

The song "Unparalleled in the World" paired with Liu Yifei's Little Dragon Girl is simply perfect.

She knew the specifications of "Painted Skin".

Singing the ending theme of this movie will undoubtedly help her career.

"Should I go and thank Director Lin in person?"

"No, you and your agent can go to his company to sign a contract when the time comes."

Liu Yifei said with guarantee.

At this moment, Zhang Liangying became more and more sure of his original suspicion.

…

Liu Yifei's 20th birthday was not a big deal.

Right at home.

There were only Liu Xiaoli, Lin Nan, Shu Chang, and Zhu Yawen around.

But it's warmer than when I was eighteen.

"Blow out the candles quickly. This is a cake that Lin Nan spent all morning making. I have to try it."

Shu Chang urged Liu Yifei who was sitting in front of the cake to make a wish.

Liu Xiaoli looked on with relief.

For many years, my daughter was very lonely.

"What wish did you make?"

Facing her best friend's questioning, Liu Yifei smiled happily, but didn't say anything and glanced at Lin Nan...
