Chapter 239 Venice

The filming of "Super Body" has begun to wrap up.

Tom has already taken people to Venice in advance.

News from home spread.

Huabiao officials understand Lin Nan's absence and hope that he will continue to contribute to the domestic film industry and achieve success in Venice.

"The only one who can be so easy to talk to is Huabiao sponsored by the General Administration. The Children's Bureau is optimistic about you.

It's impossible for you to count on golden roosters and hundreds of flowers. The association has the final say over there. "

Han Sanping told Lin Nan that although he could not attend Huabiao, his character plaque and personal honors resume would still be displayed at the party.

"These are no problem. However, Director Han, I have to tell you everything. I will not stay at the Film Association any longer."

Han Sanping on the other end of the phone was stunned for a few seconds and sighed.

"It's up to you, those people are indeed a bit too much, what age are they, and they still use that kind of label..."

Although Han Sanping is the boss of China Film Group, in the association, it is based on seniority. He really has no say, let alone a young man like Lin Nan.

The end of the month is getting closer and closer, and in order to ensure that the filming of "Super Body" is completed before the last day, the filming work of "Super Body" has become intensive.

During the day, Lin Nan almost stayed on the set, and Liu Yifei was in better and better condition during filming.

The crew and crew are not fools.

Before the movie started, Tom from Crystal Pictures was very...pleasant with this girl.

Now everyone basically understands why.

Cakes, snacks, and a bowl of longevity noodles.

The birthday was very simple, just celebrated in the villa, and there were only four people including the assistant.

"Here, try it."

Liu Yifei knows that Lin Nan can cook.

Relatively speaking, she is a "freeloader" in this regard.

"Hehe, I'm starting."

Liu Xiaoli was cutting the cake on the side. She looked at the lively Liu Yifei with a touch of warmth on her face.

My daughter's stubbornness at first seemed to be correct now. She is luckier than she once was.

…………

Today is Liu Yifei's last scene, and it is also the last fight scene between man and god.

"action."

Lin Nan decided to direct this scene himself, and the director readily agreed.

On the monitor, there is a scene in the corridor. Liu Yifei has a cold face, without a trace of human emotion, and highlights a decisive and decisive killing...

…

Maybe it's because of Lin Nan's directing. Liu Yifei tried hard not to make any mistakes. In the past, she sometimes got NG.

One passed, very good.

"cut."

With a soft cry from Lin Nan, the filming of "Super Body" for more than a month was officially announced to be over.

"Everyone, "Super Body" is finished.

Crystal Pictures will host a cocktail party to celebrate, so please be sure to arrive on time. "

Cheers and thanks came one after another. In Hollywood, the reception is an essential part of the movie after it is finished.

"How was my photo taken?" Liu Yifei asked with a smile.

"Very well, let's take a day off and then we'll set off."

"Yeah, okay." The girl nodded lightly.

…

Just when Lin Nan, Liu Yifei and others were preparing to leave for Venice.

Domestically, the Huabiao Awards party has begun.

Although Lin Nan didn't arrive, he still had his prize.

"Outstanding Director Contribution Award!"

This gave Lin Nan a headache. Although Huabiao didn't have high gold content, it was indeed more tolerant than Golden Rooster and Baihua.

This also shows that Huabiao didn't take Lin Nan's absence to heart at all. To them, it was a trivial matter.

It's just that the people from the association are going online to cause trouble.

"Why don't we treat Tong Ju to a meal when we get back? Well, it's best to have it at China Film Academy." Lin Nan murmured in his heart.

It was Han Sanping who came on stage to accept the award on behalf of Lin Nan and gave an acceptance speech.

"Director Lin Nan asked me to accept this award on his behalf.

Everyone knows that his "Hunting" needs to be released in Venice, so he has to prepare in advance. He is also very grateful to Huabiao..."

Han Sanping was very thoughtful.

"Another favor."

Lin Nan smiled and shook his head. Unknowingly, his interpersonal relationship had reached this point.

There are a lot of people who want to beat him up, and there are also a lot of people who want to help him...

The last day of August.

Lin Nan, Liu Yifei, her daughter, assistant, and Matt Damon flew to Venice.

Everyone is very excited.

The voyage was not far, and five hours later, the group landed in Venice.

Tom waited early to be picked up.

"Lin, the promotional venue and screening room are ready and can start at any time."

"Well, let's go back to the hotel first. Let's take a rest and go to the official check-in for the film festival in the afternoon."

"good."

…

In the afternoon, there was an additional film "Hunting" in the huge exhibition hall of the film festival.

Li An called specifically because he was the chairman of the jury and was really not suitable to meet in person, so he only expressed his welcome on the phone.

Film producers always like to pursue big directors and famous directors, and Lin Nan meets their requirements.

It was here last time that he sold The Martian.

Liu Xiaoli and Liu Yifei took their assistants to visit the screening room.

Whether it is Liu Yifei or Liu Xiaoli in her youth, they are both artistic young women at heart.

Venice is just right for them.

"Oh, God. Lin, we meet again. This time you finally brought your work to Venice for competition."

Lin Nan was a bit dumbfounded. He visited Berlin twice and Venice once. This was his fourth time.

"Are you going to buy my copyright this time? Haha..."

"Lin, I can only afford your movies more and more, because I am a small film producer. However, I still wish you a smooth award..."

"Thank you, you can go to the screening room of "The Hunt" later."

As he spoke, Lin Nan handed out a ticket. He only planned to screen "The Hunt" five times, no more.

Not long after, the reporter from Sina found Lin Nan.

Now he can be considered as one of us, and Lin Nan cooperated with the interview.

Soon, the domestic news was updated.

"The Hunt appeared at the Venice Film Festival and was favored by a large number of film producers."

"Director Lin's first visit to Venice, "The Hunt" is quite popular..."

Many people in the industry cast their eyes over.

...

It was simply a ghost.

Lin Nan saw Huang Bo, and the guy was winking at him, and goose bumps instantly appeared.

"Director Lin, you're not that surprised to see me, are you? Come on, give me a hug, haha."

"Why are you here?"

"That's right, I'll definitely come if Bullfight is shortlisted for the Horizon Unit. Director Guan Hu and Yan Ni are also here.

Tsk tsk tsk, you're worthy of being the big boss of the competition unit. You look down on our Horizon Unit and didn't even notice it, right?"

Huang Bo finished, laughing and joking.

Lin Nan really had nothing to say, he really hadn't noticed it.

After hearing what Huang Bo said, Lin Nan knew that there were four Chinese films in the Horizon Unit.

Even Cui Jian brought a 30-minute short film to Venice for promotion.

"Okay."

Huang Bo smiled, "How about we get together in the evening? I'm so uncomfortable here because I don't speak the language."

Lin Nan shook his head. He planned to go to the movies with Liu Yifei in the evening after finishing the promotion in the daytime.

In Venice, there is always a love movie.

This made Huang Bo a little confused. He didn't think Lin Nan would refuse.

"Do you have something to do? I was thinking of calling Yan Ni to meet you. She is from the same hometown as you."

"I have other things to do. There is plenty of time before the closing ceremony. There is no need to rush in the next two days."

Lin Nan gave two tickets to "The Hunt", Huang Bo and Yan Ni, just right.

"Good stuff, I will definitely go and learn Director Lin's masterpiece, maybe it will be this year's Golden Lion."

"Then I also wish you to win the Best Actor..."

Huang Bo was stunned for a moment, and then understood instantly, "Thank you for your good wishes."

...

For many "carpet stars" who have no works, the easiest place to sneak in is the opening ceremony red carpet.

Lin Nan did not go.

He and Liu Yifei watched three art films for three consecutive nights, all of which were romance films.

Lin Nan was a little overwhelmed. Liu Yifei was too emotional and often got teary-eyed while watching, and he was the one who suffered.

After the first screening of "The Hunt", the general plot leaked out.

Sina is very fast.

The portal website has already had the impression of the movie.

"This is a realistic theme that goes straight to the weaknesses of human nature..."

"There is a dragon spring on the tongue, killing without blood."

"Lin Nan's "Hunting" is about human hunting, you and I are both prey."

...

Netizens have discussed a lot.

The Graduate Department of the Beijing Film Academy's Directing Department can finally speak when being interviewed at this time.

"Yes, we gave the highest score to Lin Nan's graduation drama.

Real society is a hunting ground, and everyone is relatively changing between hunters and prey..."

"This is very realistic and ironic. Lin Nan can shoot such an excellent work, and the Directing Department is proud of him."

...

There are more and more film distributors, many of whom are acquaintances who have worked with him before.

They know Lin Nan's habit and will always bet on the final award result.

So before the closing ceremony, they just came to say hello and expressed their interest in the film. After the award ceremony, they will make an offer.

People from China Film also came to meet Lin Nan.

How to say it, Han Sanping really treats Lin Nan as his own.

"What does Mr. Han say? Import or buyout?"

"Director Lin, there are not many quotas for imported films. What do you think of batch films?

Mr. Han said that this time the situation of "Buried" will not happen again.

And you also know what kind of movies are popular in the domestic market..."

Lin Nan understood what he meant. "The Hunt" may not be able to do well at the box office in China. This kind of movie is too depressing.

"You name a price."

"30...30 million."

Lin Nan thought about it and thought that this price should be good in China.

If he takes it back as an imported film, he will get this number. Putting aside the cost of publicity and promotion, the box office must reach about 100 million.

"Okay." Lin Nan nodded in agreement.

Family members know their own business. This kind of movie is not easy to sell at the box office in China.

People from China Film are very happy.

In the hands of other companies, "The Hunt" may not be profitable.

But the scale of China Film's theater chain is not small. With Lin Nan's reputation and Matt Damon from "The Bourne Supremacy", it will definitely not lose money!

In the next few days, "The Hunt" will end its five screenings and will no longer be screened.

More film producers came to inquire about the news.

Lin Nan took the time to meet Huang Bo and Yan Ni. Tong, the shopkeeper, is indeed an actress with high IQ and EQ.

"Director Lin, you are not authentic. If I hadn't run into Yifei, I wouldn't have known that she came to Venice with you."

Huang Bo said with a smirk.

"Everyone says that Xiaolongnu is very beautiful. This time I finally saw the real person. She is really beautiful..." Yan Ni added with a smile.

"You are such a big mouth, just like Ning Hao."

"What you said is slandering me." Huang Bo retorted.

Lin Nan ignored him, but left Yan Ni's contact information.

There are not many good actors. As a director, there may be a role that needs Yan Ni at some point.

"Director Lin, see you on the red carpet at the closing ceremony..."

When the three of them separated, Huang Bo waved.

Lin Nan was a little speechless, and he didn't know if he would get any awards.

However, even if he didn't get any awards, he still had to go to the closing ceremony, at least to show respect.
