Chapter 290 Let’s Make a Romance Movie
Lu Zheng bought into Wanda Pictures to pave the way for Jing Tian.
Ye Ning came along this time, which also showed Wanda's intention.
In the end, Lin Nan gave the female role in "Pacific Rim" to someone else.
After talking about the business, the few people were taken to visit Tiangong Color.
The post-production and special effects of "Warring States" have already started here.
"I seem to see cat food and dog food in Director Lin's office?" Ye Ning asked suspiciously.
Yue Jun smiled when he heard this and explained:
"Yifei often comes here and brings her pet from time to time."
Hearing this, Ye Ning understood.
"Couples who come out of school are pretty beautiful."
…………
Zhang Yimou's art films are a very important business card in the entire film industry.
Those who can receive invitations to the preview ceremony will basically not be absent.
The news has spread throughout the film industry.
"Zhang Yimou's new film, The Hawthorn Tree, will be screened in the Beijing Film Academy's small auditorium on the 31st of this month."
"It is reported that the invited guests are all professional directors, actors, film critics, and media professionals in the industry..."
This time, Lin Nan will go with Liu Yifei.
On the other hand, Huayi held a celebration banquet for "Earthquake", which was also a fan meeting for "If You Are the One 2".
The most frequently asked question on the scene was not the achievements of "Earthquake" or the expectations of "If You Are the One 2".
The most frequently asked question was Sun Haiying's repeated attacks on Feng Xiaogang and "Earthquake".
Sometimes there are many mentally ill people in the circle.
It's okay to be jealous of others' achievements.
But while scolding "Earthquake" as garbage, all domestic films are garbage, and domestic audiences are garbage, he emphasized that he never watches domestic films, only American films!
This is disgusting.
Given this perception, why do you still want to stay in China to make movies and TV series?
Lin Nan felt that this was no longer a mental or brain problem, but a problem with the buttocks, which was crooked beyond all limits!
"It's terrifying to think about it."
…………
With all the movies being promoted, Chen Kaige couldn't stand the loneliness.
"The Orphan of Zhao" released the "pregnancy clothes" for the role of Zhuang Ji played by Fan Bingbing.
Let's not talk about the plot, Director Chen is indeed a master in color and aesthetics.
Fan Bingbing's stills were forwarded crazily on the Internet, and they were indeed very stunning.
"It's just... that."
Liu Yifei didn't know when she came around behind Lin Nan and said something out of the blue.
Lin Nan subconsciously wanted to close the computer, but then he realized that he didn't seem to have done anything shameful?
"It's not that good, not as good as you..."
Lin Nan nodded and hurriedly agreed.
There was a sense of solemnity in the air.
His words were true, everyone has their own preferences, and Lin Nan likes Liu Yifei.
Fan Bingbing always gives people a coquettish feeling.
"Get ready, we're going to school."
Liu Yifei stopped arguing with Lin Nan and talked about business, the preview of "The Hawthorn Tree".
"Thinking about it, it seems like I haven't been back to school for a long time."
"Then I'll go around with you today?" Lin Nan suggested.
"Yeah, okay."
The girl smiled and nodded lightly.
…………
Today, we're keeping a low profile. We're driving Lin Nan's G-Class, with Liu Yifei at the wheel.
Among all the directors at Beijing Film Academy, Zhang Yimou's treatment is the highest.
At the school gate, there was a banner for the preview of "The Hawthorn Tree", various signboards, and many students leading the way...
One after another, expensive cars drove into the school after registration.
The security guard at the gate was still an acquaintance.
"Director Lin, please come in quickly, come in quickly."
"Thank you."
The car drove all the way to the directing department before stopping.
In the past, Lin Nan's car often parked here, not in the public parking area.
"Isn't this Director Lin and Yifei?"
As soon as I got off the car, I heard a sarcastic voice. I didn't even need to look up to know it was Lao Jiang.
"Teacher Jiang." Liu Yifei called sweetly.
Lin Nan looked at Lao Jiang, who hadn't changed much, and the thermos cup in his hand that was one size larger.
"Are you even weaker? This cup can hold half a pound of black wolfberries, right?"
"Can you talk? This is called health preservation!" Lao Jiang's smile to Liu Yifei just now turned black in an instant.
Liu Yifei kept laughing on the side.
The two walked into the office and saw that only Lao Jiang was there.
"Everyone else went to the small auditorium. Although Lao Mouzi's new movie is only a preview, the show is not small..."
Lao Jiang kept talking about what big-name actors and directors came...
Lin Nan searched Lao Jiang's nuts, opened a small bag, and handed it to Liu Yifei.
"I said you're done, you didn't bring anything back, and you ate my food?"
"Ning Ying gave me a lot of wolfberries, I'll get you some later." Lin Nan replied.
"Then... do it as soon as possible."
…………
The two left the directing department and walked towards the small auditorium.
Liu Yifei stuffed a pine nut into Lin Nan's mouth from time to time, and it was over in a few minutes.
"When you were in school, did you get along with Director Jiang like this?"
"Yes. He's a very casual person to get along with."
Many students took the initiative to greet Lin Nan and Liu Yifei on the way, even though they didn't know each other.
Some of them seemed to want to take a photo with Liu Yifei, but finally stopped.
It was awkward to see several big-name actors from the Central Academy of Drama in Beijing Film Academy.
These were all actors who had acted in Zhang Yimou's movies before, such as Zhang Ziyi, Sun Honglei...
"Lin Nan, Yifei."
"Director Zhang."
...
Zhang Yimou looked very energetic, more than twice as strong as the old Jiang just now.
There were not many people inside, about 200, but there were many familiar faces.
On the director's side, Tian Zhuangzhuang, Gu Changwei, Jiang Wen and others were all there.
On the actor's side, Li Xuejian, Zhang Ziyi, Wang Jinsong, Wang Jinsong, Sun Honglei, Huang Bo, Yan Ni...
Sure enough, there was no small role.
Lin Nan took Liu Yifei to sit in the director's team, and a group of actors saw it, without any objection.
"Next time I start a new movie, let Yifei save a schedule?"
Jiang Wen said as soon as they met.
"Lucy" is too powerful, with 100 million US dollars in North America and 400 million in China. If converted into its own currency, it would be more than 1.1 billion.
You can imagine how popular Liu Yifei, the heroine, is now.
Before Miss Liu could speak, Lin Nan refused.
"Forget it, your movie is not suitable for her."
"Alas, why are you saying that? Why is it not suitable?"
Jiang Wen's movie, he was so excited that he could ask any actor for anything, and Liu Yifei was a bit literary and artistic...
Lin Nan would definitely not agree.
"Yifei, what do you say?"
Seeing that Lin Nan was a little determined, Jiang Wen asked Liu Yifei again.
"Director Jiang, I listen to him."
"Alas, it's strange." Jiang Wen was a little speechless.
…………
On the stage, Zhang Yimou led the male and female protagonists and a group of supporting actors.
After just a brief introduction, the feature film began to play.
What do art films usually talk about?
Some directors like to be mysterious, so that you can't understand, which can reflect his level.
Zhang Yimou's "Hawthorn Tree" is not like that.
There is no fancy tricks, but it is straightforward and goes straight to the heart...
…………
Liu Yifei leaned on Lin Nan's shoulder and sobbed from time to time.
"Fortunately, I was prepared. Here."
A tissue was handed to Miss Liu, who did not refuse.
This movie is a tragedy, not a family movie.
In terms of training new actors, Zhang Yimou is really good. This is a very pure literary love movie.
After a long time, the last subtitle popped up on the screen:
"I can't wait for you for a year and a month, nor can I wait for you to be 25 years old, but I will wait for you forever."
At the end of the movie, the faces of the people around were very solemn. Pure love can only appear in movies, memories, and that era...
Almost all the actresses were wiping their tears, and Lin Nan's shoulders were wet.
"Let's make a love movie..."
Lin Nan turned his head and glanced at Liu Yifei. The girl's eyes were red and watery.
"What did you say?"
"I said, make a love movie."
Liu Yifei repeated again, and Lin Nan heard it clearly this time. Her nasal tone was a bit heavy just now.
"Is that so?"
Lin Nan nodded. Miss Liu was moved by "The Hawthorn Tree" and had begun to make requests to her boyfriend.
"Make a movie, I'll be your heroine, okay?"
The rustling voice made people feel pity.
"Or, you can deal with your snot first?" Lin Nan handed another tissue in a sly manner.
Miss Liu glared at him unhappily.
…………
The applause was like thunder.
Zhang Yimou's movie was recognized by everyone at the scene.
"Director Zhang is still Director Zhang. He is unique in art films.
I can't make such a pure one, haha." Jiang Wen sighed.
Today's preview ceremony was much more harmonious because Zhang Dapao didn't come. I don't know what he did.
Zhang Yimou led two newcomers and wandered among the guests. It seemed that he wanted to help them.
"Lin Nan, Yifei, what do you think of my movie?"
"Director Zhang's art films are of course very good, otherwise they wouldn't have moved so many people."
Lin Nan spoke first, and Liu Yifei nodded.
"By the way, let me introduce you to the male and female protagonists of my movie, Zhou Dongyu..."
"Hello Director Lin, hello Sister Yifei."
…………
It looks like the two protagonists, the female one should be signed, so I'll focus on introducing her.
After chatting for a few minutes, Zhang Yimou said that Zhou Dongyu has already signed up for the art exam at Beijing Film Academy, because the school leaders came to talk to him...
This is equivalent to being recommended, and just need to go through the formalities.
"You haven't agreed to me yet."
On the way back, Lin Nan drove the car.
Miss Liu kept talking about this.
"You didn't think of it on a whim today, did you?" Lin Nan asked for confirmation.
"Hmph, just say whether you agree or not, don't try to perfunctorily tell me..."
Hands crossed, hugged in front of chest. Liu Yifei looked very fierce.
"Then let's shoot."
Lin Nan said softly.
"Really? Don't fool me!"
"Really, why would I lie to you? Give me some time, I'll think about the script."
"Okay, muma..."
"I'm driving, take it easy..."
...
