Chapter 706 Matt Damon, 130.8 Billion!
Chapter 706 Matt Damon, 1.308 billion!
"Matt?"
Following the sound, Lin Nan looked over.
Isn't it Matt Damon? Behind him were two foreign bodyguards and a female assistant.
The other party had a smile on his face, "Lin, did you guess it was me? Haha..."
"It's a bit unexpected, but it's a pleasant surprise."
Lin Nan stepped forward and hugged Matt Damon cordially, joking.
Liu Yifei stood at the edge and reminded with a smile: "Let's leave quickly. Many people are watching and it will affect the traffic."
Hearing the sound, Lin Nan quickly signaled to Matt Damon, and then they walked outside.
There were many passengers going in and out, and many of them stopped to watch. Many of them were taking photos or videos with their mobile phones, which indeed caused some congestion.
A group of media reporters in the distance were already extremely excited.
The first one was Liu Dehua, and the second one was director Lin Nan who came to pick up Liu Yifei.
What's even more unexpected is that traveling with Liu Yifei is actually Hollywood's top A-list movie star - Matt Damon!
This morning, everyone really made a lot of money! Shouldn't this contribute to several entertainment headlines?
Liu Yifei's assistant and bodyguard got into the Hongxingwu car with their suitcases and went back without stopping.
As for Liu Yifei herself, she must be with Lin Nan.
Several cars apparently coming to pick up Matt Damon were parked outside the airport. It was only now that Lin Nan noticed that it had just stopped next to him.
"Lin, Crystal, aren't you curious about what I am doing in China this time?"
The reporters were stopped outside by the staff who picked up Matt, and several people were talking beside the vehicle.
"I'm not curious. It must be related to a movie or announcement, it's a commercial secret."
Liu Yifei joked, Lin Nan followed and nodded.
"Well, it is classified as confidential. But you will know after it is completely confirmed in a few days.
I will stay in China during this period until the premiere of "Interstellar" here. Do you have time to take me for a walk? "
Matt Damon smiled and extended the invitation, and of course the two would not refuse.
"Okay, give me a call when you're free. I think you'll be busier than us these days." Lin Nan smiled pointedly.
"Then get in the car, shall we? I guess Matt has other plans."
Liu Yifei noticed that the person picking up Matt Damon seemed a little anxious, but did not dare to disturb him, and then spoke.
Of course Lin Nan and Matt also noticed it, "Okay, see you later."
The three of them waved goodbye and got into their cars.
Sitting on the passenger seat, Liu Yifei instantly became lazy and leaned back lazily.
She asked Lin Nan uncertainly: "Matt is here for "The Great Wall," right? Doesn't that movie require first-tier Hollywood actors?"
"What else could it be besides "The Great Wall"? Among the people who just picked up the plane, there are people from China Film Group. I know them."
After saying this, Lin Nan couldn't help but laugh again, "Matt's salary is probably very high, so why don't we ask him to treat us later?"
"Huh? That's a good idea, haha. Let's go home, I'm hungry."
…
At noon, entertainment news is extremely eye-catching.
"Andy Lau appeared at the Capital Airport, suspected to be here for the Sino-US co-production blockbuster "The Great Wall"!"
"Liu Yifei joined the crew of "Interstellar" and finished her overseas promotion. She returned to Beijing today. Director Lin Nan picked her up and the two hugged each other sweetly..."
"Matt Damon, the famous Hollywood first-line movie star, arrived in the capital on the same flight as Liu Yifei, and had a pleasant chat with director Lin Nan outside the airport."
"After many years, Zhang Ziyi once again accepted the audition for director Zhang Yimou and frankly expressed his confidence in "The Great Wall"..."
"After Li Bingbing's audition for "The Great Wall", in the interview, he claimed that he had shown his best to the director. He did his best to obey fate."
""Beautiful Heart" is about to be released. It lasted 27 days and successfully exceeded the 1.3 billion box office mark!"
…
There are never fools in the film and television industry and entertainment industry.
So many big names are flying to the capital these days, or rushing back, and today even the top A-list actors in Hollywood are here.
The reason is already obvious. It’s basically certain that they all came here for “The Great Wall”!
"They actually met?"
Listening to the secretary's report, La Peikang smiled softly and was a little curious.
"It seems that Matt Damon also starred in "Interstellar", so after the movie promotion, he happened to be on the same flight as Liu Yifei. Then I met Director Lin and chatted for a long time."
After hearing this explanation, La Peikang suddenly realized.
The male lead confirmed by Legendary and Universal is Matt Damon, and other Hollywood actors will arrive in two days.
The latter came here to see Zhang Yimou.
And he also has a close relationship with Lin Nan. He has participated in two of Lin Nan's movies, and he won the Venice Best Actor with Lin Nan's "Hunting"!
"Um, La Dong, they said they couldn't do Director Lin's job...he came to ask us what should we do?" The secretary hesitated and talked about another thing.
"Haha, it's a joke. Now you know how to ask us? You didn't take China Film Group seriously before!"
La Peikang paused and sneered. But the problems that should be solved still need to be solved.
"Don't we just start signing up in March? Let's give some advice in advance then. Also, please talk to Director Han about this matter after the year. He is one of the leading actors."
La Peikang still had a playful smile on his face when he said the last sentence.
"Well, Mr. Han's performance as Zuo Shandiao is really good, haha."
The secretary suppressed his facial expression and didn't laugh. The leader can make fun of the previous leader, but he can't have the slightest "overstepping".
...
The first thing Lin Nan did when he got home was to post a Weibo to promote "Red Sorghum", because this big drama will be broadcast the day after tomorrow.
He only remembered this after Zhou Xun, Zhu Yawen and others tagged him, after all, the broadcast rights have been sold for a long time.
In the kitchen, Liu Xiaoli was busy with lunch, while Liu Yifei was eating secretly on the side, and was nagged from time to time, and she responded by acting like a spoiled child.
After Lin Nan tagged Zheng Xiaolong, Zhou Xun, Zhu Yawen and other main creators, he received a call from Yue Jun.
The invitation letter to the cocktail party sent by Jiaxing and the personal call to Yue Jun to invite him were indeed a bit troublesome.
There must be a sense of incense.
But for a company that mainly deals in artist management and relies on outsourcing for production, although it is very profitable now, Lin Nan really can't get too interested.
In his eyes, production is the king!
"Director Lin, what about this matter?"
"Since it's for you, then you can go and take a look."
"But this is a cocktail party for them to seek investment, what about us?"
"Go and listen to their business situation and see how confident they are? They have been independent for less than two years, and they dare to go for financing, haha..." Lin Nan couldn't help laughing.
"Okay, the day after tomorrow night, I'll go and see."
As soon as he hung up the phone, Liu Yifei came out with a plate in her hands, with a little bit of a wrong expression.
"Come and help."
Lin Nan quickly took it, it was indeed a little hot, "Xixi, you should sit here and wait for dinner, I'll do it."
"Go, go, I'm waiting for you to say this."
…………
The movies that were affected can't escape.
Following "Monster Hunt" and "The Sun Also Rises", Guo Jingming and the producer of "Tiny Times 4" also made an official statement before the end of October, and it was very direct.
"According to the spirit of the documents of the superior department, the film company decided to withdraw "Tiny Times 4". The film will be re-edited, all shots of actor Ke will be removed, and the subsequent film will appear in the form of sound."
As soon as the news came out, the Internet was really in chaos, especially those fans, who began to target the producer and Guo Jingming.
However, the latter was really cunning, and he specially posted a Weibo explanation to appease fans: This is not the director's decision, and he is also innocent!
Time went by in a blink of an eye and it was the 29th.
"Red Sorghum" lived up to expectations. After two days of broadcasting, the ratings were stable in the top three in the country at the same time.
Although Zhou Xun's Jiuer is different from Gong Li in the movie version, she also received rave reviews! After many years, Zhou Xun returned to the small screen and was very successful.
Maybe it's because youth films have made too much money in the past two years. Look, a new cross-industry director is about to come online.
Early in the morning, the news spread online that the host of Mango TV was also preparing to shoot a youth film and was working on the script.
Copying the template of "My Deskmate", it was also adapted from a song, and the script and the movie name were both: "Gardenia Blossoms"!
It can only be said that the influence of Mango TV should not be underestimated. Most of the film and television circles are posting congratulations to help He Jiong promote it.
It seems that once a movie is released, it will be another 500 million+ box office performance, and it is bound to give birth to another "commercial film director" like Guo Jingming!
"Produced jointly by Bad Monkey Pictures and Lin Nan Pictures, directed by Ning Hao and supervised by Lin Nan, the movie "Lost Flower Road" was officially released last night!"
"After one month of release, the total box office of "Lost Flower Road" has accumulated 1.308 billion, and the copyright transaction amount is 21.58 million US dollars. It is expected to become the most profitable in the domestic film market this year!"
"It is estimated that Bad Monkey Pictures and Lin Nan Pictures can share more than 568 million in profits with the movie "Lost Flower Road"!"
...
The film industry is jealous again.
There is no need to wait for the Lunar New Year holiday. "Heart Flower Road" is likely to be the most profitable movie this year, no doubt about it!
Lin Nan brought Liu Yifei to attend the dinner party of Ning Hao and Xing Aina. This guy is walking with a sense of floating.
The seven words "billion-dollar box office director" are almost written on his face.
"Who would make a youth film if they have some aspirations? This is to make money. Every ticket is a ticket. As much as you can make, you can make as much as you can!"
Director Ning commented on He Jiong and the movie "Gardenia Blossoms" in a "pointing at the world" style.
"Okay, don't say this outside. Come on, congratulations to Ning Hao, the 1.3 billion box office director!"
Lin Nan smiled and raised the red wine, first clinked it with Liu Yifei, and then sent it to Ning Hao.
"Haha, thank you Director Lin and Producer Liu for your support. I made nearly 300 million for your family. It hurts to think about it!"
Ning Hao pretended to be uncomfortable and rubbed his chest.
The buzz cut, the fat face, the big gold chain, and the artificial expression and action are too out of place, and people can't help but get goose bumps.
"Yifei, come here, this is a dish specially ordered for you."
Xing Aina and Liu Yifei were chatting and laughing, in a good mood, and ignored Ning Hao.
"Thank you, sister Na." Miss Liu smiled sweetly.
At this time, Ning Hao suddenly felt something:
"In this circle, people really flatter the powerful and trample on the weak! Lin Nan, do you know what invitation I received yesterday?"
"What?"
"Guan Hu and Feng Xiaogang invited me to guest star in "Mr. Six"! I was in a good mood at the time and agreed immediately. Now that I think about it, it's really realistic!
It's obvious that they came for my new status and reputation as a big director in the 1 billion box office club, and for the popularity of "Lost in Thailand"!"
