Chapter 616: Investing?

Because I caught a flight when I came back from Hengdian, I got up early.

So after lunch and a short walk, Liu Yifei naturally went to catch up on her sleep.

Even so, she did not forget to remind Lin Nan: "Remember to wake me up before 6 pm, so that I don't oversleep and can't sleep in the second half of the night, and finally a vicious cycle."

Lin Nan couldn't help laughing after hearing this:

"Others may still have day and night reversed, but Producer Liu will never do that. Just let go and sleep, adjust your work and rest time? Isn't that easy?!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a little bear pillow hit Lin Nan, and he grabbed it and threw it to Liu Yifei who was sitting on the bed angrily.

"Hurry up and take a rest, my Princess Sissi."

"Hmph!"

After that, Lin Nan dodged and closed the door, avoiding the next wave of attacks.

At 2:30 pm, Lin Nan returned to the company.

Under the building, Jiang Xingrou was organizing people, and the filming team was going to set off early.

"The opening ceremony will be handled by Director Jiang."

"No problem, Director Lin."

Jiang Xingrou understood what Lin Nan meant. That is, neither Lin Nan nor Yue Jun would go to the set.

"Oh, by the way, how is Red Sorghum going?"

Lin Nan suddenly remembered this drama. It should have been finished for almost half a year. Why didn't he hear any news from Zheng Xiaolong?

"Director Zheng said that post-production is expected to take another two months. After all, it is a large-scale TV series with about 60 episodes, and the original author and the movie are so famous, so we have to be careful."

"Well, that's how it should be. I see."

Lin Nan nodded and walked into the elevator. Yue Jun was already waiting for him in the office.

Two minutes later.

"What did Happy Twist say specifically?"

Lin Nan walked into the office and asked at the same time.

"A director named Yan Fei contacted me and mentioned Director Lin's promise to find us to invest in the movie, and then formally asked for an appointment to meet."

Yue Jun recalled the phone call in the morning and repeated it.

He had already obtained detailed information about Happy Twist during his free time at noon.

This company has nothing to do with the film and television industry. Its business scope does not include movies and TV series, only stage plays, and at most it has a bit of agency meaning.

"Director Lin, are you sure you want to invest in their movies?"

How could Lin Nan not hear what Yue Jun meant: "Don't underestimate them. Happy Twist's stage plays are very popular, and almost all of them are original stage plays, which represents creative ability.

Although small, they have everything. Their team can easily be transformed into a film and television company. What they lack now is only funds, connections and opportunities. And we can provide all of these."

"If you put it that way, it is indeed true. It's just that the span from stage plays to movies is still a bit big! Haha..." Yue Jun laughed.

"No matter how big the span is, they are all directors, actors and screenwriters who are formally trained. They are more professional than writing novels, right?" Lin Nan also joked.

"So how to arrange it now, Director Lin?"

Lin Nan sat in a chair and thought about it.

There are some things that he can't say in person, even if he means it.

"The investment cost of comedy has always been low, not to mention that the actors of Mahua are paid even less. Set a time and you will meet them on my behalf."

At this point, Lin Nan paused, and Yue Jun also waited for the following words in tacit understanding.

"Investment funds, filming team, post-production equipment, support in terms of connections, and even help with publicity, these are not a problem. But, I want one thing..."

"Investment?"

Yue Jun blurted out, he knew that although this kind of company is small, it will definitely not be sold...then it can only be shares.

Lin Nan smiled, "Well, that's right. Let you negotiate, and get as much as you can. For them, it's not a loss, it's a lot of money!"

Although Yue Jun didn't quite understand why Lin Nan would care so much about a company that does stage plays, he still nodded.

"The profit scale of this company is like a mosquito leg, I think it should not be difficult."

"Then it depends on you, Director Yue."

…………

At about three o'clock in the afternoon, the Capital International Film Festival ushered in the closing ceremony red carpet.

The number of filmmakers, actors and stars at the scene was more than double that of the opening ceremony.

Lin Nan received several calls urging him to show his face and be the face of the crowd, and ended up stealing the limelight from many people.

"Boss Han, take a look, those actors abroad are exactly the same as those in China, all of them are 'fawning' faces."

Ning Hao pulled Han Sanping and pointed at Lin Nan and teased: "The actresses just greeted us and chatted with us at most.

But when they heard it was Lin Nan, they kissed and hugged directly. Look, Director Lin's face is covered with a lot of makeup. The perfume on his body is a bit mixed, right?"

Lin Nan immediately retorted: "Damn it, you look so fierce, it's good that others don't avoid you."

Ning Hao reacted quickly and pulled Han Sanping, "Boss Han, I think he is talking about you."

"I'm used to it, I'm used to it. After all, you are the 'mountain eagle' in Director Lin's heart, so you have to be fierce? I admit that you are ugly!"

Has Han Sanping really let go completely after retirement? He can also make jokes? !

Lin Nan ignored the actors around who wanted to laugh but held back, looked at Ning Hao, and said jokingly:

"If Director Ning wants to have close contact with a foreign actress, just tell her, and I promise not to tell that sister again."

"Unfortunately, I have to tell Yifei that Director Lin had close contact with five or six actresses today, and there is one who wants to talk to her, haha."

At this moment, Lin Nan was instantly stuck and clasped his hands in fists: "Okay, you are great. Director Ning wins this round."

"Young man, do you know what it means for a married man to be fearless?"

Lin Nan felt that Ning Hao was distracted and said silently: "I only know that there are people who often avoid debts..."

There were a lot of people on the scene who understood it instantly, and the topic became dead-end in no time.

Ning Hao adjusted the watch on his wrist, pretending that nothing had happened and it had nothing to do with him.

"Hahaha, okay. Lin Nan, do you want to go in with us for the awards show later?"

Han Sanping changed the subject and asked with a smile.

"No, I have to go back soon. Then I'll watch the live broadcast at home."

Lin Nan checked the time. It was almost five o'clock. When he rushed back, he was just in time to wake up Liu Yifei.

"That's fine, it's up to you."

At this time, the crew of "Rebirth: The Frozen Gate" was already on the red carpet.

Zhen Zidan was dressed in a white suit, holding a white skirt and wearing a sky-high yellow holy robe. He looked funny, and he was more than half a head shorter.

Wang Baoqiang on the side also waved to Lin Nan, Ning Hao, and Han Sanping.

…

When he came back, Lin Nan was catching up to watch the fun.

There was no need for him to tell Liu Yifei to get up, Liu Xiaoli did it herself.

Following the sound, Lin Nan tiptoed to the door of Miss Liu's boudoir.

The door was open, and Liu Xiaoli was "teaching" her daughter inside.

"You are still so lazy when we are about to get engaged. Are you planning to stay like this after getting married?"

"Mom, let me sleep a little longer. There is no conflict between getting married and sleeping in. Lin Nan will definitely not rush me anyway..."

"You are still reasonable. It's all your fault that I spoiled you..."

Lin Nan saw Liu Yifei sitting on the bed through the crack in the door, with her long hair messy and a resentful look on her face, while Liu Xiaoli was standing beside the bed.

"Ahem, um, auntie, what should we have for dinner?"

Seeing Lin Nan's figure, Liu Yifei suddenly sobered up and winked at him.

"What do you want to eat? Why don't you have something light for dinner? I'll go take a look...the nanny is busy today..."

Liu Xiaoli instantly lost the attitude she had when scolding her daughter, and instead put on an amiable smile, walked out of the room and walked to the kitchen.

"It's up to you."

"good."

After Liu's mother walked away, Lin Nan came to Liu Yifei. Her expression seemed a little angry.

"Now it seems that you are my mother's biological son, and I picked you up."

Hearing this, Lin Nan laughed out loud instantly. He held Liu Yifei's puffy face and said with a smile:

"Remember my biological father's attitude towards you. In comparison, I'm not even picked up. I'm like a passerby in your house. It feels like he wants to kick me out at any time, haha..."

"Pfft, what are you talking about?"

Hearing Lin Nan's words, Liu Yifei also laughed out loud.

"Okay, get up quickly so that Auntie won't have to talk to you again later."

"Um……"

Liu Yifei nodded softly and waxy.

…

After sleeping all afternoon, Ms. Liu took a bath again and felt a hundred times more energetic.

After dinner, the two placed snacks in the garden, blew in the evening breeze, and watched the live broadcast of the awards ceremony.

This "The Grandmaster" really brought Zhang Ziyi back to the top of his dream, and his career also reached its peak again.

With this movie, she has won 10 Best Actress trophies in the Chinese film industry and the Southeast Asian film industry.

Tonight's Capital International Film Festival Best Actress Award is the 10th!

"Ning Hao actually dozed off in the first row?"

Liu Yifei's sharp eyes saw a scene.

"It means the award ceremony is too boring and has no new ideas," Lin Nan said with a smile.

In the live broadcast, Zhang Ziyi was delivering an acceptance speech, saying that he would regain his past honors and continue to work hard until he surpasses them.

"Is she declaring that the 'International Chapter' is back?" Liu Yifei joked.

Lin Nan shook his head: "It's early, it's just a movie, it has won so many awards, and the most important one is only three gold medals.

Whether we can go back to the past, the next "Taiping Wheel" is the key..."

Anyway, in Lin Nan's opinion, this should be Zhang Ziyi's last glorious moment.

"Peace Wheel"? That's a sinkhole!

As the night passed, not many people seemed to be discussing the news about the Capital International Film Festival.

The headlines of film and television news are all about "My Deskmate" and "Rebirth: The Frozen Gate".

The two movies will have their premieres in the morning and will be released on the same day. They are very competitive.
