Chapter 268 Premiere
In April, several domestic films that attracted much attention began to premiere and be released.
Xu Jinglei's "Du Lala" was wholly produced by China Film Group Corporation.
Although the investment amount was only 20 million, Han Sanping went to the stage in person.
"Next, it is estimated that for every movie that China Film Group Corporation participates in investing, President Han will personally attend the scene."
"Why?"
"Since the release of "Avatar" in the mainland in January, there have been few domestic films that have not lost money.
The nearly ten films invested and released by China Film Group Corporation have all lost a lot of money..."
Lin Nan explained to Guo Fan.
"Future Police" was the worst, with an investment of 200 million and a box office of less than 60 million.
It is precisely for this reason that Han Sanping has begun to pay attention to even movies worth 20 million.
In the past, China Film Group Corporation would have at most had a vice president, which was considered good.
Lin Nan glanced at Guo Fan. This guy now stays at Tiangong Color when he has nothing to do, watching the employees work and chatting about special effects.
"Didn't you say you wanted to go back to school and take classes in other majors?"
"Alas, I can't attend classes properly. People disturb me wherever I go."
Lin Nan understood. He was like this when he was in school. There were always people trying to make connections with you, and many of them were even teachers from various colleges and majors.
Guo Fan has now made a name for himself, and he must be the one being wooed.
This is how connections and relationships in the circle are made. Staying in school makes it easier for people to "remember" him.
"It's up to you."
In Lin Nan's opinion, Guo Fan is also not keen on socializing, just like him.
…………
The first day box office was 8.5 million. It seems that this "Du Lala" has the hope of exceeding 100 million.
In the past four months, China Film has finally made a profitable movie.
Yushu...
With the experience of 2008, the entertainment industry is much more active this time.
Liu Yifei took over Lin Nan's share and donated one million in the name of the two.
"Remember to ask them to issue invoices for charity."
Lin Nan reminded Miss Liu on the phone.
"Yeah, I know. I'm not stupid."
Since the Zhang Ziyi incident, anyone who really donated money would ask for a receipt or invoice to avoid another "donation fraud" one day.
Lin Nan looked at the news online.
Various disaster relief, fundraising, and charity performances were held one after another.
Liu Yifei still chose the channel of the Children's Aid Foundation. She might really like children.
From the data published online, most first-line actors and stars have 200,000 or 300,000 yuan, which is very neat;
A few like Lin Nan and Liu Yifei are also familiar faces...
...
The current way of promoting movies is different from before. The promotion started when the filming started.
Several highly anticipated films release some stills from time to time to attract the attention of netizens and audiences.
Outdoor stills of "The Hawthorn Tree", makeup photos of "The Orphan of Zhao", and the big-budget "Warring States".
This time, the Mou girl doesn't seem very smart, giving people a silly feeling.
How to walk, Zhang Yimou taught it hand in hand for two days, but couldn't learn it!
The whole family of Chen Kaige participated in the film "The Orphan of Zhao". His wife produced the film, his eldest son played the board, and his youngest son acted in the film. In addition, Director Chen spent 120 million to build a small city.
What amazed netizens the most was the rich and powerful "Warring States".
Just for the "falling into the water" scene of Sun Honglei, hundreds of thousands of yuan were spent to build a luxurious wooden bathroom, and hundreds of boxes of pure milk were used to complete the "fresh milk bath"...
Netizens called it extravagant!
Many directors in the industry felt a little regretful that they missed the director position of "Warring States".
On the other hand, China Film launched the latest round of "Young Director Support Plan".
Lin Nan and Ning Hao were naturally excluded.
In the words of Han Sanping, "Do you still need support? If I support you two, I will have to write a self-criticism!"
When Lin Nan and the other two went to support the show and sat in the audience, the atmosphere on the scene was interesting.
The people who were supported on the stage were not very "young".
Jiang Wenli, Xu Jinglei...
Lu Chuan is still in it, how shameless.
…………
"Mi Mi, I worked at Meiya for two years before, and I had a lot of contact with them. This is the script I got from them."
Zeng Jia handed a script to Yang Mi.
"But can the schedule be changed? "Painted Skin 2" should be coming soon."
Yang Mi was a little hesitant. She believed in Zeng Jia's vision, but she was more looking forward to "Painted Skin 2".
"There is no conflict. They agreed to make appropriate adjustments. After all, your status is there."
Zeng Jia said it confidently. Yang Mi is the most famous among the young actresses.
Of course, Liu Yifei is not among the young actresses.
"Then let me take a look?"
"Well, you can take a look. This is a very interesting script. I heard that Tangren is also working on it, but the speed is very slow..."
After listening to Zeng Jia's words, Yang Mi understood. Is this trying to get ahead of Tangren?
"I'll read it first."
"As soon as possible..."
After Zeng Jia left, Yang Mi started reading the script. The story was not complicated, even a little rough, but it was "bloody" and novel.
"If I guessed right, the heroine of Tangren should be her..."
...
Ying Huang moved the premiere of "Ip Man 2" forward by one week.
Since morning, the news website has been full of news about the premiere.
The "Ten Fighters" in "Ip Man" is still vivid in my mind.
Now, the second part is finally coming.
"Ip Man 2" held its premiere in Beijing today!"
"The scene is grand and full of stars..."
...
Lin Nan was not in a hurry at all. After closing the computer, he went out and walked towards Liu Yifei's villa.
Seeing the poop shoveler coming from a distance, several clean and beautiful cats surrounded him and were very close.
Liu Yifei was still putting on makeup. When she heard the noise, she knew it was Lin Nan without turning back.
"Wait a little longer, it will be done soon."
"I'm not in a hurry, you take your time."
Lin Nan said softly, looking at Miss Liu's face in the mirror, he was a little absent-minded in a trance.
In fact, waiting for Liu Yifei to put on makeup is not a kind of enjoyment, a kind of peace and tranquility.
After a long time, a voice of anger came, "Still watching?"
"Haha, then I won't watch it."
With that, the makeup artist finished her work.
She looked young and beautiful in a blue printed off-shoulder dress.
Her long black hair was gathered up, revealing her snow-white neck, which was decorated with a platinum necklace and a jade bracelet on her right wrist.
"How is it?" Liu Yifei approached Lin Nan in high heels and asked with a smile.
"I was fascinated by it."
"Haha, let's go." Liu Yifei was very satisfied with this answer.
...
In the eyes of everyone in the industry, "Ip Man 2" is likely to make money.
Many celebrities in the circle have walked the red carpet and entered the venue.
At this time, a black business car stopped in the square.
Lin Nan walked over with Liu Yifei.
"Finally, we've waited..."
Many reporters were waiting for this scene, and the camera instantly turned on the continuous shooting mode.
"Director Lin, Yifei, look here."
"Yifei..."
...
When the two entered the venue, almost everyone looked over.
"Director Lin, Yifei, you're finally here."
Yang Shoucheng walked over first, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei were important guests today.
"We are not the main actors of the crew, so there is no need to rush."
As he spoke, Lin Nan took a general look around.
Yang Shoucheng brought many artists under Yinghuang.
Greetings were heard one after another.
Han Sanping, Wang Changtian, Ye Ning and others were all guests today.
After greeting a group of people, Lin Nan took Liu Yifei to the guest seats.
All around were people from Lin Nan Films, Guo Fan, Lu Yang, Yue Jun, and Zhang Yi.
Not long after, the premiere ceremony officially began.
A group of creators were interviewed in a very harmonious manner, and the reporter did not mention the lack of people during the previous promotion.
The main film began.
The plot of this part is a continuation of the first part, telling the story of Ip Man bringing his family to Hong Kong Island...
The movie is about 100 minutes long, and the plot is basically full and compact.
Zhen Zidan is responsible for fighting, Huang Xiaoming is responsible for the second and funny.
The response from everyone at the scene is quite good.
"Yinghuang is cheap..."
Han Sanping joked with Lin Nan across several seats.
"If there is a third film, Director Lin, remember to take care of old friends."
Ye Ning and Wang Changtian also joined in the fun, and the jokes were often mixed with the truth.
Yang Shoucheng had already started to speak.
"The first film had a box office of over 100 million.
We spent more energy on the second film and made it more delicate, and we hope to have a new breakthrough in the box office."
"What is Director Yang's box office expectation?"
When the reporter asked this, Yang Shoucheng did not pause at all.
"At least 200 million, 300 million is not too much, anyway, the more the better, haha..."
This made everyone laugh, but it cannot be denied that this movie has this possibility.
"Are there any plans for a third film?"
This question made many people quiet down, and they all looked at Lin Nan.
"It depends on whether Director Lin has any plans. Lin Nan Film is one of the producers, and Director Lin is the screenwriter of "Ip Man."
Not only the reporters, but also Ye Weixin, Zhen Zidan, Xiong Dailin and others on the stage looked over.
The microphone was handed to Lin Nan.
"If this movie does well at the box office, then of course we can consider a sequel."
Hearing this answer, the main creators on the stage were very happy, and Han Sanping and others instantly had an idea.
Yang Shoucheng glanced at Zhen Zidan and made some calculations in his mind.
If the box office is a big hit, then continue to hammer, if it is not ideal, then we have to settle the accounts...
Lin Nan just said something, but he didn't say it out loud, "Consideration, it's just consideration."
...
At the cocktail party, Huang Xiaoming came over with a glass.
"Director Lin, Yifei."
Lin Nan and Liu Yifei looked at each other and couldn't help laughing.
"What are you laughing at?"
"Nothing to laugh at, I just saw you talking and laughing with a female artist just now, and you were having a good time, haha."
Lin Nan smiled jokingly.
"Girlfriend?" Liu Yifei followed up Lin Nan's words and teased.
This time, Huang Xiaoming was a little embarrassed.
"When did you gossip so much?"
While talking, he looked back at the distance.
"Just ordinary friends..."
