Chapter 529 Guo Jingming Is Surrounded

"The youth-themed movie "Tiny Times", written and directed by Guo Jingming and starring Yang Mi, Guo Caijie, Guo Biting and others, closed at 71 million on the first day..."

"The movie "Tiny Times" is expected to hit the 1 billion box office mark."

...

The entire production industry was shocked by this number.

A newcomer who just came from another industry and made a movie with a casual touch can get such a box office?

However, although the first-day box office data of 71 million looks very gorgeous, it is not so enviable.

Because after only one day and one night, the Internet has become a battlefield.

No movie has ever been publicly refuted and belittled by most of the film industry.

No director has ever been publicly besieged by a large number of filmmakers and film critics.

Now, "Tiny Times" and Guo Jingming have done it all, and they are enough to be recorded in film history!

"The record of a super bad movie and super box office hit created by Dwelling in the Fuchun Mountains was broken by Tiny Times in less than a month."

"Tiny Times is so bad that it far exceeds all the bad movies in the past. Its ostentatiousness and piling up have reached a morbid level."

"It superficially interprets friendship, love and youth with flat, symbolic and vulgar characters. The whole movie is extremely materialistic, money-worshiping, vain and decadent from beginning to end... all three views are shattered!"

"Tiny Times is a long video that insults the word 'movie'. It is a spiritual opium with the label of youth!"

...

Countless people in the film industry are watching the battle online. It is a rare scene in film history.

A large number of film critics, directors from the Directors Association, screenwriters from the Screenwriters Association, and even producers have rarely stood together to boycott Tiny Times.

Even the Federation of Literary and Art Circles came out and pointed out that Tiny Times is immoral.

For the first time, the industry also saw what the "power" of fans is.

A large number of fans of "Tiny Times" fought to the death and cursed at film critics, film associations, screenwriter associations, literary associations and other organizations on Weibo.

In their mouths, "Tiny Times"'s first-day box office exceeded "So Young" by 26 million, and it is a good movie that will definitely reach 1 billion.

And those who refuted "Tiny Times" are all a group of jealous villains...

Guo Jingming has posted several Weibo posts in a row, denouncing the persecution of himself by the entire film industry and calling on fans to be rational.

"I don't know if I touched someone's cake, so that I was targeted by the entire industry."

"If you have anything, come to me, but please don't curse my fans and fans of my movies. They just want to support their favorite works..."

"I can tell all those who target me that I and "Tiny Times" will not fall, and the second part will be scheduled for August 8.

I will also shoot the third and fourth parts as planned, and even my other novels. I will not stop directing and will not bow to you!"

...

Lin Nan sat in the office, watching the online news, and couldn't help laughing out loud.

"Is this a message to the entire film industry?"

"To use the words of many netizens, this is called: a petite body shouting out the loudest resistance!"

Yue Jun also added jokingly, and then changed the subject:

"Several actors can't escape. Yang Mi's Weibo has exploded. Fortunately, Director Lin had foresight at the time."

Lin Nan flipped through Yang Mi's Weibo. As Yue Jun said, she was the leading actress among the leading actors, and she was the first to bear the brunt.

"No wonder Director Lin Nan emphasized in front of the media that "Tiny Times" was a resource you took on yourself, not found by the company. It seems that he had expected this day?!"

"I heard that you signed a full "Tiny Times" series? Can you break the contract? For this kind of movie, one more movie will add a stain..."

"It's what you deserve. You ruin your character..."

"Why don't you renew your contract? You're going to be in trouble."

"Director Lin is awesome!"

...

Lin Nan found that many people were talking about "Tiny Times" under his own Weibo, Lin Nan Films, and Shanhai Media's Weibo.

Either he was asked to comment on the movie, or it was about Yang Mi signing the contract for Tiny Times.

"Don't pay attention to these topics."

He sighed and said to Yue Jun.

"I understand." The latter nodded.

At this time, Wang Changtian called in.

"Mr. Wang?"

"Lin Nan, your words yesterday, 'set a goal of 1 billion box office first', were just too timely.

Since yesterday afternoon, the stock price has started to turn around and rise. The reply from the agency was very clear, it was because of "Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy"! "

"Haha, I still have this ability..." Lin Nan stopped talking halfway.

It seems that he does have this influence in the film industry!

Otherwise, why does Huayi always want to invite him to the annual meeting every year, and the report occasionally mentions that he is a shareholder of Huayi?

"Have you reacted?"

"Well, I have reacted. Mr. Wang, do you have to give me some stocks?" Lin Nan joked.

"No, no, the principle cannot be changed. The most fundamental strategy of Guangxian is not to be tied to a certain person. Huayi's model is too dangerous. I suggest you have a clear mind."

"I will definitely be concerned about it. It will be soon."

I thought there was nothing wrong and I could hang up the phone, but Wang Changtian started to hesitate again.

Whenever this happens, Lin Nan knows that Lao Wang is definitely trying to take advantage again.

"Well, how about giving the distribution of Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy to Guangguang? Director Han will retire at the end of September."

The meaning of the second half of Wang Changtian's sentence is a bit profound.

The most direct meaning is that after Han Sanping retires, the distribution work does not need to be closely tied to China Film, and can be handed over to Guangguang.

After all, when Han Sanping was in office, the films directed by Lin Nan, especially commercial films, were distributed by China Film.

After he stepped down, Guangguang was the only distributor among Lin Nan Pictures' fixed partners.

But with Han Sanping's retirement, another question came up, which is also the second meaning of Wang Changtian's words.

That is: Should Lin Nan retain China Film's share in the investment of big-budget movies in the future?

"It's still early, let's talk about this matter when the time comes."

Lin Nan could only give this answer, and it really couldn't be decided for a while.

Wang Changtian could also hear Lin Nan's hesitation, "Okay, let's talk about it later. Let's talk about this at the retirement banquet for President Han."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Nan also had a headache.

To be honest, he has never stopped cooperating with China Film since the second movie, and it was all handled by Han Sanping.

He is retiring all of a sudden, how should he cooperate in the future?

People leave and tea gets cold is relative. Most people in the circle think that Han Sanping is the tea, and the position is the person; but for Lin Nan, Han Sanping is the person, and China Film is the cup of tea...

Yue Jun hasn't left yet, and he hasn't finished speaking.

"Continue." Lin Nan gestured.

"Director Lin, how do we solve the problem of Mr. Han's salary?"

"Have all the others been paid?"

"All the other actors' salaries have been paid."

Lin Nan nodded, "Han Jianu belongs to the production team, so she shouldn't have been paid yet, right?"

"The production team's salary is based on the company's payday, so she hasn't been paid yet."

"Then deduct Han Jianu's salary, and after September, pay both of them to Han Jianu at once, so as to avoid unnecessary trouble for Mr. Han in the last two or three months."

"Hmm? Good idea!"

…………

It's funny to say that the entire film industry was set off by a movie called "Tiny Times".

140 million in two days, 210 million in three days.

The fans were like chicken blood, allowing it to maintain a daily box office of 70 million for three consecutive days.

At the same time, the movie's reputation on the entire network has become extremely bad, and only the fans are supporting it.

But this movie is also very special. It can't be reverse-marketed like "Fuchun Mountain Residence" and "Detective Dee". It can't go the black-and-red road!

It's just because most ordinary people can't get into this kind of youth film, even the slightest sense of getting into it, which is much more outrageous than "So Young".

The whole movie gives people a feeling of being high and mighty, which makes ordinary people not interested at all.

The leading actors are also quiet and dare not speak online.

Yang Mi's mood at this moment is like losing her parents.

This is the worst movie she has ever made since her debut, and the whole network is scolding her. She feels like she is getting further and further away from the road of "excellent actor".

"Shouldn't we have taken this role at the beginning?" Yang Mi looked at Zeng Jia and asked.

She clearly remembered that Yue Jun had strongly opposed her taking this role, saying that the novel had a wrong outlook on life and it would definitely be a bad movie, and it would seriously affect the reputation of the actors.

But Zeng Jia and her own opinion is that the original novel has many fans and the box office is guaranteed. Now it seems that Yue Jun is right!

"Don't think too much. Isn't the box office good? And there are a lot more announcements in the past two days.

You are the heroine, and you will still be the heroine in the next two films. This is something that many actresses in the circle envy.

It is impossible for a movie to have no bad reviews. Commercial value is the most important thing for a female star..."

Zeng Jia said on the side, and soon Yang Mi reaffirmed her belief.

In the short term, the blessing of "Tiny Times" to her is indeed more beneficial than harmful. The topic, value, and fans are all increasing.

"By the way, Mimi, "Gu Jian Qi Tan" is about to join the crew, get ready."

"Okay, I know."

...

Lin Nan was a little impressed by Wang Changtian's good luck. I guess Lao Wang is laughing like crazy now.

"Tiny Times" is so bad that it sets off "The Detective", making the audience think that the latter is still acceptable!

This is simply a pie in the sky, the kind that can't be avoided.

In this way, the daily box office of "Detective Dee" magically turned around and rose to 17 million. In 10 days, the total box office successfully exceeded 210 million.

Although it seems that it still cannot make back the investment, at least it can reduce the loss in the end, right?

People in the circle were all stunned. There is such an operation? It all depends on the contrast of peers!

…………

Lin Nan began to work on the post-production editing of "Taking Tiger Mountain by Strategy".

Liu Yifei was also busy with her own announcements, endorsements, magazines, commercials, selecting new brands...

Euphemistically called: saving dowry.
