Chapter 562 Rejection, "The Price of Salt"

The movie market in October has been completely warmed up by "The Dragon King of Gods".

Among the domestic films that will be released soon, "I Want to Be Good with You" by Feng Shaofeng and Ni Nai, and "Special Identity" by Donnie Yen and Jing Tian are the films that have attracted the most attention.

Among the imported films, "The Wolverine 2" takes the lead, and "The Lone Ranger" and "Stalingrad" are also eyeing it.

The promotional activities and premiere dates of these movies have been spread all over the Internet and are very popular.

At the same time, the news that "The Breakup Master" was officially launched also made headlines.

Especially what Lin Nan said at the press conference made many companies in the industry ponder for a while.

Lin Nan Pictures' resources are given priority to its own people. That is what it should be and it is very reasonable.

But since you said you are not enemies, then everyone will continue to cooperate with Yang Mi by default.

It would be a pity not to use A-list actresses who make so much money and accept all comers.

No one will have trouble with money. As long as you don't explicitly say "ban", everyone will pretend they don't know and won't worry about it.

"Director Lin, there's an invitation from Starlight."

""special identity"?"

Lin Nan raised his head and looked at Yue Jun walking into the office.

"Yes, it looks like their premiere will be grand."

"As long as you have money, this is what Lu Zheng is like. You can go there by yourself, or arrange for others to go."

Lin Nan joked that he had no interest in the movie.

"The person others want to invite is you, hahaha." Yue Jun smiled and accepted the job.

Ignoring Yue Jun's joke, Lin Nan picked up the vibrating cell phone on the desk.

At noon, a piece of movie information spread in the circle and on the Internet.

"After four months of shooting, the third installment of the "Ip Man" series, jointly produced by Lin Nan Films and Yinghuang Films, officially wrapped up this morning."

"Yinghuang Pictures held a wrap-up banquet for "Ip Man 3" on Hong Kong Island, and Yang Shoucheng attended in person."

This news has moved the mainland film industry, and there are also various expectations online.

Just because it has been a full 6 years since the first "Ip Man" was launched in 2007, the third one has finally been completed.

Now basically everyone knows the reason why "Ip Man 3" has been delayed for so long, that is, Donnie Yen has a big mouth.

In addition to the "Zhao Zhen Controversy" early last year, there is also the upcoming "Special Identity".

At this moment, a large number of netizens on the Internet are applauding Zhao Wenzhuo and looking forward to his "Ip Man".

"Zhao Wenzhuo is definitely better than Zhen Zidan, I am optimistic about him!"

"Donnie Yen said that the scenes in "Special Identity" were great and worth going to the theater. It was by no means a bad movie. Can you trust him again?"

…………

Looking at the message in the text message: "Thank you, Senior Brother Lin, for the big red envelope," Lin Nan knew that Han Jianu had received her pay.

He glanced at the time on his phone and cast his gaze out the car window.

Because the National Day has not yet ended, the flow of people outside the Capital Airport is still very large at this time, and there is even some congestion.

A slim figure wearing a floral dress, high heels, a sunhat and sunglasses appeared in Lin Nan's field of vision from a distance.

In the sea of ​​​​people, you can lock Liu Yifei at a glance. This is a required course for Director Lin Da!

"I said before that this dress was almost meaningless, why don't I bring it with me anyway? Haha, woman, you are really duplicitous."

Lin Nan had a smile on his face and complained about Liu Yifei.

"But it's really beautiful."

It looks good, but since it can catch Lin Nan's attention instantly, it will definitely attract the attention of others.

Among them are the media reporters who have been squatting outside the airport for many years. They can also quickly locate targets.

Sure enough, as soon as Lin Nan got out of the car, she saw Liu Yifei surrounded by a group of media reporters.

Under the cover of four assistants, she kept walking and answered reporters' questions with a smile while continuing to walk out.

When she saw Lin Nan waving, Liu Yifei's smile grew even brighter.

The pace of her feet involuntarily quickened, with a hint of impatience, but she did not lose any grace in her walking.

"Thank you everyone, that's it. We are going back."

Liu Yifei decisively got into the passenger seat, while Lin Nan waved to a group of reporters.

The four assistants took their suitcases and went to the car in Hongxingwu behind.

"Director Lin, can you..."

Before a group of people could continue to ask questions, Lin Nan's car had already started and accelerated slowly.

Taking off her sunhat and throwing it into the back seat, Liu Yifei stretched out, looking very lazy and exposing her curves.

"I'm finally back. Originally, Nolan and the others wanted me to fly with them to Hollywood to attend the wrapping party."

After saying this, Liu Yifei stared at Lin Nan's side face and said with a smile: "However, I miss you more, so I declined."

"Then it's a great honor for me, Princess Sissi."

Lin Nan took over the conversation and joked.

"Smei, it's you, not just you. There's you, there's mom, there's Changchang...well, you, you account for at most more than half..."

As he spoke, his voice gradually became softer, and even Liu Yifei herself laughed.

"Let's go, because of the words 'I account for more than half', this director will take you to have a big dinner, and then I will unspoken rules for you..."

"Okay, who's afraid of whom?"

…………

There are some things in the entertainment industry that really cannot be left under the sun, as that would be very dazzling.

Very abruptly, the media added a "prostitute-hiring-gate" and quickly rushed to the headlines.

Maybe for people in the circle, this is completely rare, but for netizens, this is a topic worth discussing.

Although the media reports do not include names, it is no different from adding names.

"A first-line actor in Taiwan is suspected of hiring prostitutes in the mainland!"

"He has a handsome appearance and has played many costume TV dramas. He is most famous for his roles in fairy tales and has many fans."

"The agent responded to the reporter: I don't know the specific situation. I will reply after understanding it."

...

The Internet is very lively, and a group of powerful netizens have turned into Conan.

Not only did they instantly lock on the "suspected" artist, but they also listed a lot of "clues" in the past to prove that this is a "habitual offender"!

In the past, when actors and stars got into trouble and were exposed by the media, artists in the circle would take the initiative to stand up and defend him.

But this first-line actor in Taiwan is special. There is actually no one in the circle who speaks for him. It's all fans who are fighting.

"Not to mention that this is definitely fake, even if it is true, it is cheap for that prostitute."

"It is definitely fake. There are so many beautiful girls among the fans, how can they find a prostitute..."

"Impossible, absolutely impossible..."

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that this situation itself has already explained a lot of problems!

…………

Chen Kaige's company officially announced to the outside world the male lead of "The Taoist Goes Down the Mountain", which is Wang Baoqiang.

All the male actors who auditioned in the industry were somewhat unacceptable to this result.

Why do so many big directors treat Wang Baoqiang, who came from a grassroots background, so "favorably"?

To count them, Feng Xiaogang, Lin Nan, Jia Zhangke, Chen Kaige, all are big directors!

And this time, Chen Kaige will also audition "women" nationwide for Wang Baoqiang in the play.

Lin Nan ate a lot, leaned on the sofa to digest the food, and liked Wang Baoqiang's Weibo by the way.

And the first thing Liu Yifei did when she returned home was to change into home clothes, and was driven by Liu Xiaoli to take a hot bath by the way.

Only half a day had passed, and the news of Miss Liu's return to China had already appeared in the media.

"In the morning, Liu Yifei returned from the crew of "Interstellar" and landed at the Capital Airport. Director Lin Nan personally met her at the airport."

"According to Liu Yifei, the sci-fi blockbuster "Interstellar", produced by Warner and directed by Nolan, was completed two days ago."

...

Lin Nan did not pay much attention to other reports, but looked at the news of "The Dragon King of the Capital of Gods".

"202 million in four days, 311 million in six days, Huayi's tail is probably going to be lifted to the sky this time?"

The National Day holiday is half over, but the daily box office of "The Dragon King of the Capital of Gods" has never been less than 50 million. Judging from this posture, it is going to be the weekly box office champion.

Liu Yifei's mobile phone on the table suddenly rang.

Lin Nan picked it up and saw that it was the assistant from Hongxingwu who called.

"What's the matter?"

"Director Lin?"

"It's me."

The assistant confirmed it and then spoke:

"Director Lin, Bazaar just called and wanted to invite Yifei to the charity dinner in the middle of the month again. What do you think?"

Hearing this, Lin Nan was so angry that she laughed.

At the end of August, Liu Yifei went to the crew of "Interstellar".

At the beginning of September, Su Mang contacted Hongxingwu to ask about the specific schedule and wanted to know if she could make it.

Lin Nan made the decision for Liu Yifei and directly turned down the invitation.

Unexpectedly, Liu Yifei had just returned for less than a few hours, and they called again. They were quite well-informed.

"Tell them that I said: I won't go this year. Yifei just came back from the crew and needs to rest for a while. In addition, there is no schedule reserved."

"Okay, Director Lin."

The assistant didn't say much and agreed directly, because she knew that Lin Nan could make the decision.

"You've been participating for five consecutive years, and you've only managed to get one sheep to fleece? No, two!"

Lin Nan felt that Su Mang was a little tactless this time. She had already rejected her once, but she still didn't give up.

Even though Liu Yifei came back before the Bazaar Charity Dinner, it was a bit too much to have her eyes on it right after she came back.

...

Su Mang had just hung up the phone from Red Star Wood, feeling a little disappointed.

She had always been the one to carefully contact some of the top names in the circle, especially those with capital.

During this period, several big directors were filming new movies and rejected Bazaar's invitation.

In Su Mang's opinion, this year's charity dinner was expected to be a little "shabby".

In the morning, the news that Liu Yifei returned from the crew of "Interstellar" spread throughout the circle and also reached Su Mang.

Originally, she thought that Liu Yifei's situation was bright and hopeful again, but who knew that Lin Nan's attitude was so firm.

Now that we have lost this couple who are both capital and big names, there are really not many big guys left at the dinner party!

…………

After taking a shower, Liu Yifei felt lazy. With a rosy face, she came to Lin Nan and handed him the hair dryer.

"Here, I'll give you a chance to serve you."

Lin Nan patted the sofa and smiled, "Okay, come and sit down."

But just when Liu Yifei sat down with her back to Lin Nan, Fat Tom called.

"Oh, it's not that I won't help you blow dry your hair, but maybe there's something important."

"This Tom, he really doesn't choose the right time to call."

Liu Yifei muttered, raised her eyebrows, and smiled slyly: "It's okay, I can wait until you finish the call."

Lin Nan smiled and shook his head, and answered the phone.

"Tom, if you don't have something important to say, Crystal will be offended by you."

"Business? I'm sure it's business! Lin, someone wants to buy the copyright of the novels we hoarded."

"Is this business?" Lin Nan wanted to scold Tom.

"Didn't I say that similar things can be bought and sold as long as you make money."

"But this is the more important part that you have classified before."

"Which one?" Lin Nan asked curiously.

"The Price of Salt..."
