Chapter 661 One-Sided
Liu Yifei pouted unconsciously. Of course, she knew what Lin Nan was talking about.
Originally, according to her personality, she was always too lazy to pay attention to other people's affairs. She just needed to be self-disciplined, take care of herself, and take care of the people around her.
But now that Lin Nan wanted to do this, she would definitely choose to support him without hesitation.
"You, really."
Liu Yifei said softly, her eyes rolling, full of tenderness.
"Just think of it as being willful for once, and do something for the industry."
Lin Nan smiled and pinched Liu Yifei's smooth face, but she bit him "fiercely".
The outside world and the entire film and television industry seemed to be a bit nervous.
Although in the morning, everyone tacitly responded to Lin Nan's "ban" proposal.
But the first thing many companies and industry leaders did after returning was to restrain "their own people".
Those who have not done those things should take it as a warning and stay away;
If you have been in contact with them or have friends around you who have problems, cut off contact and distance yourself from them;
If there are really people doing it, stop it immediately, it is still not too late to be quiet;
As for those who are ignorant of the immensity of heaven and earth and don't know how to live or die, just wait for death!
Because the higher-ups can hold such a meeting, it means that the relevant departments have already had the idea of taking action, and it is hard to tell when something will happen.
Once they really take action, it will not be a small matter, it may be a big purge and a more stringent industry supervision and punishment system.
…………
After half a month of release, the daily box office of "Tiny Times 3" dropped by 50,000, and it was withdrawn by the theater chain in advance with a box office of 460 million.
And Han Han's "See You Tomorrow" took eight days and cut a box office of 410 million.
Although it has a better reputation and more potential than "Tiny Times 3", the box office trend of this movie still belongs to the category of fan movies, and the industry estimates that it will not last more than two weeks.
Finally, there is the movie "The Legend of the White-Haired Witch: Kingdom of the Moon", which also performed very well at the box office.
Thanks to the beautiful shots and wonderful performances of Fan Bingbing and Huang Xiaoming, it earned 223 million in four days.
It is certain to make money, and the copyright is also very easy to sell!
Lin Nan paid special attention to "Dragon Nest: Dawn of the Dragon Warriors", and could only sigh that it is not easy to make a domestic animated movie.
Even though the daily box office is rising, the schedule is constantly being cut. After getting 35.25 million in four days, it is estimated that it will not last for a few days.
"Director Lin, there will be a celebration banquet for "The Master of Breakup" tomorrow morning; "Ip Man 3" is scheduled for the day after tomorrow, but it conflicts with the premiere of "The Legend of Sword and Fairy" at Xiying."
The assistant came over to remind Lin Nan of the schedule for the next few days.
"I know, someone else will represent the company for "Ip Man 3."
Putting down the pen in his hand, Lin Nan looked up and said. He promised Xiying something, and he would not break the promise.
"Okay, Director Lin."
After the assistant left, Lin Nan was too lazy to continue his broken train of thought.
So, he went to Tiangong Color to see Lu Yang's post-production work on "The Swordsman 2: Battle of Shura", and then left the company.
The car radio was full of interesting film and television entertainment information.
After "Legend of Ban Shu", Lu Zheng found another TV series with a female lead for Jing Tian - "Legend of Da Yuer"!
This TV series held its opening ceremony at the Chuzhou Film and Television Base this morning, with Nie Yuan, Yu Rongguang, Hui Yinghong and others as supporting actors, and the lineup was not small.
Lin Nan was a little puzzled while listening to the news. In the past, this girl would always post on Weibo when she started shooting a new drama or joined the crew. Why didn't she post this time?
...
In the first half of the summer season, among domestic films, "Ip Man 3" and "The Breakup Master" ranked first and second in box office.
In other words, among all the domestic production companies, Lin Nan Pictures made the most money.
After all, the combined box office of these two movies is as high as 1.43 billion.
Liu Yifei had no interest in attending the celebration banquet, so the next morning, Lin Nan left home alone to go to Guangguang.
The normal state of the film and television industry, which is to flatter the high and trample the low, was very nakedly displayed at the celebration banquet of "The Breakup Master".
When Lin Nan arrived at the scene, a large number of actors in the circle, especially many young actors, surrounded Deng Chao and talked and laughed, congratulating this new commercial film director!
That's right, no matter how bad the reputation of "The Breakup Master" is, Deng Chao has indeed become a film director with a strong crossover, which cannot be denied.
"Director Lin."
"Director Lin"
...
When a group of people saw Lin Nan, they immediately rushed to greet him. How can a new commercial film director compare to a top international director? !
Deng Chao greeted Lin Nan with a smile on his face, as if there was something big and happy.
Yang Mi, enjoying the halo of the heroine of the 600 million box office, also moved closer from a distance; Nazha followed the crowd, a little at a loss...
Lin Nan smiled and waved his hand, indicating that everyone was busy and didn't need to pay attention to him.
And he went in the direction of Wang Changtian, and the people around the latter walked away with a tactful look.
"Why didn't Yifei come with you?"
"She had to go to the airport to pick up my mother-in-law at noon, so she didn't come here." Lin Nan said with a smile.
"Hahaha, you changed your name to mother-in-law outside? When did you call her 'Mom'?"
Wang Changtian laughed loudly, and many people around heard it. Some young actresses were even more envious!
Lin Nan did not respond, but lowered his voice and said: "Mr. Wang, let's talk about business later."
"Hmm? What are you going to do?"
Damn! Wang Changtian's subconscious question made Lin Nan a little speechless. Is his intention so obvious?
"Don't look at me like that. I just had a momentary hunch that you must be up to no good!"
Wang Changtian smacked his lips and said with a very sure tone.
"Then your hunch is not accurate!"
After a few words, Lin Nan and Wang Changtian agreed to talk slowly after the celebration banquet.
The box office data of 660 million is very good. All the insiders and media reporters present also learned for the first time that the production cost of "Breakup Master" was 40 million!
With such a comparison, Deng Chao's "status" was instantly raised a lot.
Wang Changtian was also very courageous and made one thing public: Guangguang had signed a contract with Deng Chao and would invest in other movies directed by Deng Chao in the future and provide strong support!
To be honest, Lin Nan admired Lao Wang's decisiveness this time. It was not easy to raise a "own" director, so of course he had to hold on tightly!
Today's celebration banquet was destined to be a great success for both the host and the guests, and the media would definitely give face and make a lot of positive reports.
What Lin Nan didn't expect was that Nazha would actually muster up the courage to come over and toast, but she was very nervous and her voice was shaking.
To be honest, it was a pity to sign such a "stupid" person to Tangren.
Wang Changtian and Lin Nan left the scene early and did not participate in the cocktail party of the crew.
"Tell me about the serious matter you are talking about, I want to hear if it is a moth."
Sitting in his boss chair, Wang Changtian said jokingly.
Lin Nan smiled, cleared his throat, and prepared to... lobby.
"I want to invite Guangguang and Lin Nan Pictures to unilaterally ban those bad artists."
Wang Changtian almost choked to death with this sentence. He quickly put down the teacup in his hand and looked at Lin Nan as if he was a fool.
"Are you crazy? What nonsense are you talking about? Do you know what the consequences of doing this will be?
This is not as simple as shouting slogans at the conference. This is a real fight against most people in the film and television industry! It is not good for us, and it is thankless..."
Wang Changtian looked constipated and tried his best to persuade Lin Nan to give up this idea.
"After the conference that day, Director La's secretary came to me."
"Yes, that's right. Ning Hao and I saw it, so I saved you the money for a meal!" Wang Changtian nodded and said.
"That day, we had lunch at the General Administration, and Director Tong, just the three of us."
Hearing this, Wang Changtian's face suddenly became solemn.
He looked directly at Lin Nan and asked tentatively, "What gossip did you hear?"
Lin Nan didn't hide it:
"I heard from Director Tong that several leaders seemed to support my proposal that morning. But because most people opposed it, it was left unresolved, but this does not mean that the higher-ups have 'surrendered'."
"Are you sure you are right?"
Wang Changtian was a little excited. He could actively respond to the policy and gain a reputation. Even if he offended his peers in the short term, it would still be a gain!
"I'm sure. Mr. Wang, think about it. The opinions of hundreds of people that morning can be roughly divided into two types, namely, giving them a chance to correct their mistakes and banning them. But why did Director Tong only say the former before the meeting ended, and didn't mention my suggestion at all?"
"Appease the emotions of most people? But if that's the case, why not support it directly..."
Wang Changtian muttered, and suddenly widened his eyes. "It means... the bureau does not approve of their opinions, but is just trying to stabilize them. Your suggestion is the most promising one in the bureau!"
Swallowing his saliva, Wang Changtian frowned even more tightly.
Lin Nan was not in a hurry to get Wang Changtian's statement, but smiled and said:
"Even if Guangguang doesn't do it, I will do it myself...
Alas, as a listed film and television company, why did Huayi have so many policy support in the past? It's because Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei dared to fight and take the lead, co-produced films and blockbusters. It's a pity that they are not obedient now..."
Hearing Wang Changtian muttering the four words "leading role", Lin Nan knew that the deception was successful!
"Fuck you, I'm on your pirate ship again." The cursing voice sounded in the office of Guangguang's chairman.
"Do you want to call Wanda and Ning Hao?" Wang Changtian asked unhappily.
"Wanda's film and television company is no different from an empty shell, forget it. Ning Hao's size is too small, so I won't cheat him."
"So you cheat me?"
"Just the two of us, I'll issue a notice when I go back." Lin Nan smiled and answered the question irrelevantly.
"Hurry up, go. I get a headache when I see you."
"Mr. Wang, keep up with me. Hahaha..."
…………
When Lin Nan got home, Liu Xiaoli had already returned.
She was sitting on the sofa in the living room, arguing with her daughter.
When she saw her future son-in-law, she immediately waved: "Lin Nan, come and pick out the venue and scenery for your engagement day?"
"What's there to pick? Of course you have to listen to me when I'm engaged. Just choose the one I want."
Liu Yifei muttered to herself, and when her mother wasn't paying attention, she warned Lin Nan with her eyes.
"No, the scenery you picked is not solemn enough, follow mine."
Well, Lin Nan finally understood what the two were arguing about. In addition, was Liu Xiaoli sure that she asked him to come and pick? Didn't she ask him to come and stand in line?
"Well, Sissi, why don't you just listen to our mother?"
When Lin Nan shouted the words "our mother", the mother and daughter opposite were stunned.
This is the first time Lin Nan has changed her words in front of Liu Xiaoli and Liu Yifei at the same time, and it is also the first time Liu Xiaoli has heard it!
Immediately afterwards, a very happy and satisfied smile appeared on Liu Xiaoli's face, while Liu Yifei's face was red and her eyes were sweet: "Flattery..."
"That's it, then just listen to me." Liu Xiaoli's smile did not disappear for a long time.
Not long after, Liu Xiaoli looked at Lin Nan and said hesitantly, as if she remembered something.
"Lin Nan, I want to tell you something. When you and Sissi got engaged, her father couldn't come back. He works so hard that it's not easy to come back. But he will come back in time for the wedding."
After speaking, Liu Xiaoli glanced at her daughter and said, "Sissi, don't blame your father."
"I know."
Liu Yifei seemed to have been mentally prepared for this. At this moment, her temperament became very quiet and mature.
Lin Nan knew that this was another side of Miss Liu that she usually kept in her heart.
"Your father will be here in two days. You two should pick him up together." Liu Xiaoli instructed.
…………
At around three o'clock in the afternoon, the entire film and television industry was in a sensation.
Major portal websites, media information, and hot searches on Weibo are all just posted on Weibo by Lin Nan Pictures:
"The film and television culture industry is an industry that stands in the spotlight. Because of its particularity, the film and television entertainment industry is also recognized as a vanity fair!"
"But in recent years, a large number of actors, stars, and employees have been involved in gangs, pornography, drugs, etc., which has seriously damaged the image of the industry and conveyed distorted views to the public, which has had a serious negative impact on society."
"After careful consideration, Lin Nan Films only represents itself and announces:
From now on, all film and television works produced or jointly produced by the company, and film and television works in which we participate in investment, will refuse to use any artists involved in gangs, pornography, drugs, etc., and will voluntarily accept public supervision. "
Lin Nan also posted the same content on his private Weibo.
Liu Yifei, Shu Chang, Lu Yang, Guo Fan... Zhang Yi, Lei Jiayin... Ning Hao, Jiang Wen...
People and close friends are the first to like and repost. They also listened to Lin Nan's words and did not comment too much.
Only five minutes later, the same announcement came out:
"...Starting from today, Guangguang will no longer cooperate with any bad artists or public figures involved in gangs, pornography, drugs, etc...."
The film and television industry is in chaos. No one expected that two industry giants, Lin Nan Pictures and Enlight Pictures, would jointly announce a unilateral ban on so-called "bad artists"!
They posed a difficult problem for all their peers.
Who can say that this decision was made wrong?
No one dares to say that Lin Nan Pictures and Enlight have done something wrong, and no one dares to publicly oppose it.
Because to oppose and criticize is to offend the public anger, the public anger of ordinary people!
There are already massive cheers on the Internet, and 99% of netizens and ordinary people are supporting Lin Nan Pictures and Guangguang.
"Director Lin and Director Wang are so tough, they are so manly!"
"This is what a large company in the industry should do. It is a responsibility and obligation!"
"If the ban is done well, the cancer should be eradicated."
"Support Linnan Films and Ray."
"Finally someone stood up..."
…
The Internet is very lively, but the problem in the film and television industry has come, and it is a big problem!
Other film and television companies, major directors, producers, associations, etc. in the industry are all at the forefront of the storm.
Want to take a stand? No one wanted to follow Lin Nan and Wang Changtian, and no one dared to speak out against them, so they could only remain silent.
"Ignore the outside world! They are the only two families who are aloof, right? What the hell!"
"Lin Nan and Wang Changtian are so damn selfish."
"Unorganized and undisciplined, and not considering the overall situation... Nortel is going to let such a person go back to teach?"
…
"Hey, Lin Nan is just young, why is Wang Changtian so radical?"
La Peikang looked at the news and murmured with a smile. He himself supports Lin Nan, but China Film is too special and not as straightforward as a private enterprise.
…
At around five o'clock in the afternoon, another company spoke up. Although it was late, it still came, right?
"Support Lin Nan Pictures and Enlight! From now on, Wanda Pictures will no longer invest in any film and television works performed and produced by bad artists and public figures involved in gangs, pornography, drugs, etc...."
At the end of the day, three major companies spoke out to unilaterally ban bad artists.
The Internet is still very lively, and the public opinion today is even more intense than the past few days, but it is positive and positive.
Contrary to the Internet, the entire film and television industry is almost silent, except for those three companies.
Many colleagues in the industry were cursing and heaving a sigh of relief. Fortunately, Tudou and Wanda Cinema Line did not get involved.
It’s not that I don’t want to get involved, it’s that I can’t. In that case, it would really cause a big fuss!
After all, one is the largest theater chain in the country, and the other accounts for nearly half of the market share. If they follow suit, they will definitely force the officials to quit.
"Does Director Lin not trust us? He didn't even notify us!" Ye Ning joked on the phone without any displeasure.
"Isn't this because Wanda's main business is theater chains? Can theater chains still be allowed to speak out? That would be to lift the table and kill them all! Haha..."
"Director Lin is right.
In addition, I was delayed this time because I went to consult the group’s opinion—the big boss nodded. ”
…………
How should I put it? Actually, I was a little stuck today…
