Chapter 182: "Assembly", "Chinese Paladin III"

Lin Nan saw a giant poster of The Warlords at the airport.

The world premiere should be held today.

"Director Lin?"

Someone called out, and Lin Nan noticed that it was a few reporters.

"Are you still waiting at the airport today? Aren't you supposed to go to the premiere of Director Chen Kexin?"

"My colleagues went there. We are lucky, so we got to see Director Lin? Haha..."

Don't hit a smiling person.

Lin Nan helped a few reporters to make up for the performance.

Ten minutes later, the interview was over, and Lin Nan got on the car that picked him up.

"Director Lin, The Warlords and Assembly have both sent invitations to the premiere..."

"When is Assembly?"

"The day after tomorrow."

"Go to China Film Group first." Lin Nan ordered.

In less than an hour, the news that Painted Skin had completed all post-production, including the special effects, was on the news.

Photos of Lin Nan chatting with reporters at the airport also appeared on the Internet.

China Film Group, post-production center.

The complete film of Painted Skin is being played, and Lin Nan is working alone.

The picture, background, color tone... all are fine, very beautiful.

"According to Director Lin's request, the one-minute and thirty-second trailer has been edited separately."

"Then contact Bona, this is their job content."

Lin Nan stared at the movie screen and said to the person next to him.

According to the agreed time, CJ and Sony will arrive tomorrow.

In the afternoon, Lin Nan notified several producers of China Film Group about this matter.

On the other hand, the news of the premiere of "The Warlords" was everywhere, and it was like a large-scale cultural and artistic event.

Just from the photos of the scene leaked on the Internet, you can see more than a hundred celebrities in the circle.

Liu Dehua, Jet Li, and Jin Chengwu are the biggest selling points, and Han Sanping is firmly in the middle.

In the evening, Lin Nan drove to Beijing Film Academy. The post-production of "Racing" was done at school, not at China Film Group.

When a few people were having dinner outside, they saw an acquaintance.

Huang Xiaoming was followed by a woman, who looked very intimate.

"Do you want to call him over?" Ning Hao looked at Lin Nan.

Before Lin Nan could answer, Huang Xiaoming had already noticed the people here and led them over.

"Director Lin, Director Ning, what a coincidence, let's share a table."

"Hurry up and sit down, I'll go order some more dishes." Xing Aina got up and left.

"Let me introduce you two, this is my girlfriend, Li Fei'er, we met when we were filming The Deer and the Cauldron."

"Hello, directors, I'm Li Fei'er."

This reminded Lin Nan of Huang Xiaoming's ex-girlfriend last year, who is now with Lu Chuan, and they are not serious.

At the dinner table, Huang Xiaoming was really attentive, and Xing Aina stared at Ning Hao.

This is near Beijing Film Academy, and many people who come and go have noticed this table.

More than an hour later, Huang Xiaoming and his people said goodbye.

"If they hadn't seen the three of us, maybe others would be at home now, making love."

Ning Hao made a joke, which earned Xing Aina's roll of the eyes.

"But I haven't heard of it before?"

"Maybe it's just recently, and the relationship has just been confirmed?"

...

Domestic reporters are also quite capable.

The next morning, Lin Nan saw the gossip about Huang Xiaoming.

In addition to having dinner with himself and others near Beijing Film Academy, he was also photographed returning to the apartment with the woman and left around midnight.

"The Warlords" was officially released.

Lin Nan met people from Sony, CJ and Showbox at the company. The people from the two South Korean companies did not communicate at all.

No one from Xiying and Ningying came. Only four of the six investors came.

The people from Sony watched the movie intently, nodding from time to time, and the people from CJ and Showbox did the same.

The people from China Film, Guangguang and Wanda also watched it seriously. This was also the first time they saw the finished film.

After the movie ended, the people from Sony gave a reply on the spot.

"Next, we can talk about the distribution and release in the island country.

Sony will bring it back to China, and can even cooperate with you to release it on the same day..."

According to the rules of imported films in the island country, there is no problem for "Painted Skin" to be released there.

China Film Group will negotiate with Sony for the subsequent signing issues.

Only CJ and Showbox are left, and neither is willing to give in.

This is the result that Lin Nan and his friends hope to see.

In the end, after much debate, Lin Nan proposed that they cooperate in the distribution, and that was the end of the matter.

The box office of "The Warlords" is out.

In 6 hours, it broke 10 million, and the first-day box office reached 21 million.

The industry exclaimed that it was another movie that would break 200 million.

The one-minute and thirty-second trailer of "Painted Skin" appeared on the Internet.

It attracted a large number of movie fans and audiences, and also snatched a lot of news attention from "The Warlords".

The scene of Wang Sheng fighting with a halberd and meeting Xiao Wei's eyes.

The warmth when he walked out of the tent with Zhou Xun under one arm.

Jiao Enjun, dressed in armor, faced the iron-blooded hundreds of sand bandits.

...

The 90-second video flashed a lot of shots.

"Zhou Xun's eyes really speak volumes!"

"The leader is so handsome."

"Hu Ge's look is so weird, but I like it..."

...

The trailer was surprisingly good.

Wang Zhonglei personally called and asked Lin Nan to come to the premiere of "Assembly".

Lin Nan agreed. Huayi, which has just completed its third round of financing, is now very wealthy.

In this year's Lunar New Year episode, "Assembly Number" is going to compete with "Reporter".

The scale of the premiere is not inferior to that of "The Letter of Contribution".

In the words of Wang Zhongjun: We are not afraid of losing money and making a profit.

Of course I’m not afraid anymore, it’s all on the news network.

When Lin Nan arrived at the scene, he was shocked by the formation.

It feels like attending a film festival.

There are more than two hundred celebrity artists alone.

Even Fan Bingbing, who left Huayi, came.

Zhang Guoli, Zhao Benshan, Zhang Jizhong...

Almost all the actors from Feng Xiaogang's previous movies are here.

"Director Lin, please come in quickly."

Everyone who saw Lin Nan coming and going greeted him warmly.

Ning Hao was surrounded by Li Bingbing, Ren Quan and others, while Jiang Wen was talking to Ge You.

Lin Nan also saw Lu Chuan, flanked by Fan Wei and Gao Yuanyuan...

"Director Lin, I can actually try singing the song "Drawing the Heart"."

Zhou Xun wore a burgundy dress that looked very white and said with a smile.

"Forget it, your smoky voice is not suitable for this song.

It was so good in the past. I also listened to your "Piao Yao". Why didn't you protect it? "

Lin Nan complained.

"Haha, you've heard of my songs, they're not bad, you have the level of appreciation."

Zhou Xun smiled wildly, attracting the attention of many people around him.

A bunch of strange eyes were staring at this side. Lin Nan felt a little awkward and reminded:

"Image, lady..."

"Okay, okay, I've always been straightforward, everyone in the circle knows it.

My voice was fine at the beginning, but I have become a bit dissolute in the past few years, and it is hopeless..."

Lin Nan felt that Zhou Xun was just a tough talker.

The premiere performance begins.

Li Bingbing sang the ending theme of "A World Without Thieves".

Huang Xiaoming came up with the song "See You or Be Seen", and his singing skills were average.

Even Huayi's newly signed "Good Man" group came up and looked familiar.

…

The movie starts.

No wonder Hua Yi and Feng Xiaogang swear by it.

This movie is really well shot, with big scenes of war scenes.

The two-hour movie ended quickly.

Many people are still immersed in the video just now.

Zhang Hanyu and Deng Chao's performances are outstanding.

During the interview session, "Assembly Number" will inevitably be compared with "Report of Nomination" to talk about things.

"If we talk about the content of the movie, I don't think we are any worse than those there. Their cast is just bigger.

As for the box office, it seems a bit false for me to say this. There are many directors here, why not ask them to make predictions. "

Almost all directors have given an estimate of more than 100 million. After all, there is "Certificate of Investment" in the front and "Yangtze River No. 7" in the back. They are all tough battles.

"I think there will be a "Assembly" in the 200 million club soon."

Talking about the matter, Lin Nan cannot deny how exciting this movie is.

Many people couldn't believe it when they heard Lin Nan's words. Are you so sure?

"Okay, Cheng Lin guides Ji Yan."

Wang Zhonglei was the first to speak, with a facial expression smile.

…………

"Assembly Number" was officially released, so much so that the box office of "Report of the Name" was directly cut in half.

The two films shared almost 90% of the market.

The remuneration of the actors in "The Proposal" was revealed by Chen Kexin on the talk show.

A movie that cost 40 million U.S. dollars was converted into 300 million U.S. dollars at the time.

And Li Lianjie directly took away 100 million, which was still a friendship price, and the remuneration was less than 20 million.

In addition, Andy Lau, Kim Sung-wu, etc. all have tens of millions in salary, and the proportion of actors' expenses in this movie exceeds 50%, not counting Chen Kexin's expenses.

After the movie's box office exceeded 100 million, it seemed like it was wilting.

Looking back at "Assembly", it has great staying power.

"There is no need to wait for the result, the "Report of Name" will definitely result in blood loss.

Of course, the only loser is the producer. "

Lin Nan knew who Chen Kexin was. He spent 100 million on those tattered costume props. Who would believe it?

A joint anti-piracy announcement was posted on major news websites.

Lin Nan even felt that China Film Group and the others were beginning to prepare a way out for "The Letter of Contribution".

For example: Is it losing money because there are too many pirated copies?

But the large number of negative reviews cannot cover it up at all.

The aesthetic power is insufficient, the plot and script are weak, and the war scenes lose points...

…

Han Sanping took the time to talk to Lin Nan and complained about the domestic box office of "Twilight". This made the latter want to laugh.

Cai Yinong's call came to Lin Nan.

"Director Lin, we are ready to start the project for "Sword and Sword III".

According to the previous contract, you have 40% of the investment, but you cannot interfere in the creation. "

"Well, I will send someone to Tangren to sign the investment agreement later."

"There is one more thing I want to ask Director Lin."

"whats the matter?"

"Daewoo hopes to invite Yifei, even for a guest appearance. Can Director Lin help?"

With Liu Yifei's current celebrity status, Cai Yinong knew that she couldn't afford to hire her, and the other party also said that she would no longer act in TV series.

But she still wanted to give it a try, even if it was a cameo.

"Mr. Cai, please don't open your mouth about this kind of thing. Yifei will not consider participating in the show or making a guest appearance."

Lin Nan said with an unquestionable tone.

"I, I understand. Director Lin, please send someone over as soon as possible."
