That Year Huayu

Chapter 317 "The Four", Do I Look Like a Coal Boss?

light.

Lin Nan didn't expect the efficiency to be so high.

It had only been two days since he talked to Wang Changtian about the role, so he asked him to come over.

"Director Wang, is it so fast?"

"When you called, we were already preparing for the casting, and the team preparations have been going on for more than half a month."

Lin Nan nodded, "What time will it be turned on?"

He had to ask clearly. After all, Zhao Liying's contract with Hua Yi did not expire until the end of April.

“All the characters will be decided in March, April, or at the end of April at the latest, and filming will officially start at the end of May.

Later, director Chen Jiashang will take people to your place to discuss the special effects, and Tiangong Color will have to send a team to follow..."

Wang Changtian didn't say anything about discounts this time.

"No problem, I will give the order."

Hearing this, Lin Nan felt relieved. He picked up the script and read it.

Suddenly, Wang Changtian smiled and said:

"Haha, if Yifei can come, I'm willing to offer a salary of 13 million yuan and increase the investment to 100 million yuan."

"You really know how to joke."

"I also know it's a joke, it's just talk, haha..."

This time the light is quite atmospheric. Unlike "Painting Wall" where the investment was only 30 million, this time it was 90 million.

"I want the female lead, is that okay?" Lin Nan asked unexpectedly.

Wang Changtian was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"Of course. Our company doesn't have any good actors.

Liu Yan and Xie Nan cannot support themselves, so it would be better to give it to you than to others. "

"Then thank you, Director Wang. But please don't spread the news about the number one female lead before the end of April."

Lin Nan's words made Wang Changtian a little confused. Guangguang was preparing to release the film project to the public in the next two days, and the casting hype would also follow.

"why is that?"

"The new person I signed, her contract with Huayi doesn't expire until the end of April."

"What? Haha, you are really good!

Okay, then wait until the end of April and then give them eye drops..."

After talking about business, Lin Nan left the light.

To be honest, Zhao Liying was much more decisive than Yang Mi and Lei Jiayin. She signed the eight-year contract without any hesitation.

Lin Nan admired this decisiveness.

The leading female lead in the movie "Light" should be treated as a meeting gift prepared by the company for her!

On the other hand, Tangren held a high-profile press conference for "Step by Step" in the capital.

There is the example of "Gong Lock Heart Jade" in the past. This TV series of Tang Dynasty naturally became a contrast, and there were many media present.

Yue Jun attended the press conference on behalf of Lin Nan Pictures.

When a reporter asked Cai Yinong what he thought after comparing the two TV series, the latter directly mocked:

"We prepared earlier than them, prepared for a long time, and shot more carefully. When it is broadcast, I believe the audience's eyes will be sharp.

You will definitely not say that "Bu Bu Jing Xin" is a stitched plagiarism work, even the songs are copied from other people's lyrics intact. We are original! "

Yue Jun couldn't help but want to laugh while sitting at the guest table. Cai Yinong was obviously going to quarrel with the producer over this drama. The news after today should be very interesting.

But what she said is right. These days, "Gong Lock Heart Jade" has indeed been reported to have a series of problems, and "plagiarism" is the biggest criticism.

But it cannot be denied that others are indeed one step ahead and exploded! Even if it arouses a lot of doubts.

"Director Yue, is Director Lin busy today?"

Cai Yinong was still a little regretful that Lin Nan didn't come.

Although there were many guests present, including all the artists from Tang Dynasty, there were no big names and it still looked very thin.

"Director Lin has other matters."

Yue Jun was a little disdainful of Cai Yinong's thoughts.

Cai Yinong, who couldn't guess whether it was the truth or perfunctory, stopped asking and talked about the sharing.

"Director Yue can send people over in the past two days. The first-round broadcast rights have been sold to Mango. The price is very good. The second, third and online broadcast channels are being discussed..."

Yue Jun nodded. After this time, the cooperation between the two companies was completely over.

…………

Female celebrities are fighting each other, using any method.

Paris Fashion Week has just passed a few days ago, and the dresses of several domestic female celebrities are a hot topic of discussion.

At this time, Zhang Ziyi and Fan Bingbing started fighting.

The former's team used a Weibo account to ridicule the latter's fashion week attire: coquettish bitch, nondescript...

Then the live photos of Zhang Ziyi, Gong Li, Liu Yifei and others were highlighted.

I thought it was done quietly, but who knew that the trumpet account was picked up by the media following the usual interaction track of likes, and finally locked into Zhang Ziyi's team.

The consequence was that Fan Bingbing's studio directly responded to the International Chapter in a big way: he was so rubbish, he was kicked back by foreigners, he was disliked by others, and he made trouble...

Two top female celebrities in the industry are fighting, which is much more exciting.

"Why did you choose to open fire on Fan Bingbing?"

Some netizens are curious.

Others were quick to provide answers.

"Gong Li's aura is too strong. If you go to her, wouldn't you slap yourself in the face?"

"Trouble Liu Yifei? What are you thinking about?

Firstly, she is not as beautiful as Liu Yifei; secondly, does Director Lin look like a vegetarian? "

Lin Nan was also a little speechless about Zhang Ziyi's actions.

I used to always compete with Gong Li, but now I start to compete with Fan Bingbing. I really get more and more involved!

"They asked me for my contact information, and I didn't feel like refusing. At that time, the two of them smiled and nodded to each other and said hello..."

Liu Yifei looked at the gossip on the Internet and said softly.

She has also experienced criticism and cyberbullying in the circle, and can understand the dirty push-ups between female stars in the industry.

"Don't worry about them, as long as they don't provoke you." Lin Nan expressed his attitude.

"Well, I know, you are one of them."

Liu Yifei smiled sweetly, very warm.

…………

People are famous and there are many gossips.

A movie "Guanyin Mountain" made Fan Bingbing win the Tokyo Film Queen.

In half a month, the box office of this movie was fixed at more than 80 million, and it was successfully released, making a lot of money!

This is also the reason why Zhang Ziyi chose Fan Bingbing as the target of push-ups.

Unfortunately, the horse has stumbled...

"Warring States" is only one month away from release.

The crew began a large-scale publicity across the country.

The movie market in March was cold and deserted, with no blockbusters.

But it was different in April. The Warring States, which cost 150 million yuan, and Guan Yunchang, which cost 150 million yuan...

The special effects of Tiangong colors have also become the focus of the star-studded publicity!

The publicity of Guan Yunchang has changed a bit. The Hong Kong crew put Jiang Wen, who was originally a supporting role, on the same level as Zhen Zidan.

The reason is still because of Let the Bullets Fly, hoping to take advantage of the influence of this movie.

Lin Nan had previously rejected Yang Shoucheng's invitation to the Academy Awards, and now it seems to be a very correct decision.

Several mainland actors who were nominated, such as Deng Chao, Wang Xueqi, Zhang Jingchu, etc., all did not win any awards.

The most funny thing is the Best Actor Award.

Nicholas Tse actually defeated Zhou Runfa, Zhang Xueyou, and Zhang Jiahui to win the Best Actor trophy, which is so funny!

When accepting the award, he even pretended to be cool!

The mainland media couldn't help but mock him.

"The Hong Kong film industry has completely declined, but these people are still complacent and self-deceiving..."

"This Best Actor award is a bit exaggerated!"

...

Yang Shoucheng called in specifically because "Ip Man 2" also failed to win any awards.

"To be honest, Ying Huang might as well try those films at film festivals such as Golden Rooster, Hundred Flowers, Huading, and Huabiao."

"What do you mean?"

"It's easier to win awards!"

Yang Shoucheng was a little uncomfortable with this.

Lin Nan was telling the truth.

Hong Kong's film awards have always been very exclusive to mainland actors and co-productions.

But mainland film festivals are just the opposite, and they like to award Hong Kong actors or co-productions.

This situation has long made many mainland filmmakers feel very unfair and aggrieved...

…………

Guangzhou officially announced its new project.

"After "Painted Wall", the group will launch a new film project again, which will still be directed by Chen Jiashang..."

"The film "Four Famous Detectives" has a budget of 90 million yuan, and the special effects shots are handled by Tiangong Color..."

"Currently casting..."

This news spread quickly in the circle, the media and the Internet.

The costume martial arts film with a cost of nearly 100 million yuan attracted the attention of a large number of actors.

The industry knows the situation of Guangguang itself. There are not many signed actors, and they are all unknown.

For a time, actors in Hong Kong Island, brokerage companies and artists in the mainland all had their eyes on it.

Hong Kong Island found Chen Jiashang's team, and the mainland contacted Guangguang...

…………

Yue Jun called Zhao Liying.

"Recently, work on your acting skills. Soon, the company will let you join the crew."

"Thank you, Director Yue, I will work hard."

Before thinking too much, Zhao Liying immediately said gratefully.

"By the way, your assistant will be in place in early May..."

"Thank you, Director. Can I ask what crew it is?"

Zhao Liying spoke boldly at this time.

Yue Jun hesitated for a moment, "The film crew, just know it yourself."

At this moment, Zhao Liying's brain was a little out of order, and she reacted after a few seconds.

"I, I will never tell anyone."

When Yue Jun hung up the phone, Zhao Liying still couldn't believe what she had just heard.

There's a movie now?

She has been in Huayi for 5 years, and she can only get some small roles in TV series.

"The Royal Hand" is the only female lead, and Zhou Yi still lost money!

"Eight-year contract..."

At this moment, Zhao Liying knew that she had signed the right eight-year contract! She really signed with the right company!

…………

Stars with strength and ambition are all becoming film and television investors, which is also on the road to capital.

Perhaps they were tempted by the profits of the China Film tribute film "The Founding of a Republic", and Shanghai Film and Changchun Film made "The Revolution of 1911".

The latter's investors also include Jackie Chan and Li Bingbing's studio!

Jackie Chan is already a big shot. This time, Li Bingbing has also successfully connected with Shanghai Film Group and joined the ranks of investors. I believe that he will be able to completely enter the capital circle in the industry in the near future...

In Lin Nan's opinion, Li Bingbing's route is also the most stable route from star to capital!

Huang Xiaoming and others also took this route.

In a few years, it will not be so easy to advance to capital...

"Warring States" began preparing for the premiere nearly a month in advance.

The guests that Starlight plans to invite involve a small part of the film and television industry, and they are all well-known figures.

Lin Nan, Liu Yifei, Guo Fan, Zhang Yi and others were all invited.

…………

If it hadn't been for Yue Jun's reminder, Lin Nan wouldn't have known that Wu Ershan's "The Sword Sees Laughter" had been released.

“How was the box office?”

"The cost of 6 million yuan, excluding the publicity and distribution expenses, has just been guaranteed, and it is not profitable." Yue Jun said with a smile.

"What do you mean? Is it released?"

"The box office revenue in four days was 12 million, and the total box office was over 23 million."

Hearing this, Lin Nan knew that the movie had not finished its release period.

"What about the evaluation?"

"The picture is very good, but the audience can't understand it."

Lin Nan nodded, and now he remembered that the movie Wu Ershan was an avant-garde martial arts film.

What is avant-garde?

To put it simply, it is a minimalist, exaggerated, abstract, and stylized movie.

This kind of film is not for ordinary audiences at all. It may be more suitable for professionals in the industry.

"This guy didn't tell me?" Lin Nan shook his head.

"Maybe you think it's unnecessary? After all, his movie didn't get much response, haha..."

After Yue Jun finished speaking, he remembered something again.

"At the beginning, I was worried that this movie would affect "Painted Skin 2", but judging from the feedback online, it will not affect the audience's expectations for "Painted Skin 2".

Most people pay attention to and look forward to "Painted Skin 2" because of "Painted Skin 1" and Director Lin's name..."

"As long as it doesn't affect it."

…………

When Lin Nan returned to the villa, she saw Liu Yifei holding the computer and chatting in the class group.

His slender fingers clicked on the keyboard with a smile on his face.

"What are you talking about? Are you so happy?"

"Yanyan said in the group that she won the second female lead in "Four Famous Catchers" and everyone was congratulating her."

"Is this so funny? I see you are smiling so happily." Lin Nan asked in confusion.

"She said that her company originally wanted to recruit a female lead for her, but was directly rejected by the company without any room for negotiation.

Everyone was joking at this moment, saying that she must have been hired by someone, maybe even a coal boss who favored the actress. "

Liu Yifei looked up at Lin Nan, smiling from ear to ear.

Lin Nan's expression froze for a moment, feeling that he was offended.

"The candidate for the female lead has been decided..."

"Huh? Did you really guess it right?"

Miss Liu looked at Lin Nan in shock. She knew that Lin Nan had a good relationship with Guang Guang, so she must not have lied to her.

"Really the coal boss?"

Lin Nan said angrily: "Do you think I look like a coal boss?"

Liu Yifei suddenly stood up, "Who do you want the role for?"

"Calm down, calm down, it's for her, the new artist the company just signed!"

Good guy, Lin Nan was almost hammered, such murderous intent!

"Huh? What new guy?"

Miss Liu sat back again. He asked in a gentle voice with a smile on his face, completely unable to see the fierceness just now.

This change in expression and demeanor will definitely add a lot of points if used in daily acting!

Lin Nan nodded and muttered in his heart.

"He is from Huayi. His contract expires late next month and he has signed with Shanhai Media for eight years.

Wait until next month and let her meet you, the boss lady..."

There is only one chapter today because it takes too much time to help the family harvest wheat.

By the way, I haven’t actively asked for monthly votes in more than two months, because I know that my update volume is not worthy of actively asking for votes!
