Chapter 745: What Should I Do After Marriage? Do You Know?

There are only eight days left until the official opening of the Berlin International Film Festival.

Many mainland production companies, distribution companies and crews have begun to prepare their itineraries.

There are countless filmmakers, actors and stars who are selling and buying copyrights, as well as participating in various related activities of the film festival.

But among so many people, the most valued by the film industry are Lin Nan and Jiang Wen.

Because they are the only two Chinese film directors who have the opportunity to compete for the Golden Bear Award for Best Picture at this Berlin International Film Festival.

It has to be said that the nomination in Berlin has made Jiang Wen, who has suffered a double blow in the reputation and box office of "One Step Away", "live" again.

This guy even has the leisure to "put a message" to Lin Nan on the Internet:

"See you in Berlin. Let me take a good look at your "Manchester by the Sea". What is the quality?"

Okay, Director Lin can't be a coward, right?

He decisively replied: "It should be better than "One Step Away", right?"

Well, after this joke was tagged, before Jiang Wen could react, the Internet was already abuzz.

There were many voices criticizing "One Step Away", and Director Jiang had no choice but to stop and remain silent.

A moment later, he sent a text message to Lin Nan, saying that the crew of "One Step Away" was going to leave for Berlin in the next two days.

When Lin Nan saw the text message, he also received a call from La Peikang.

A full year after taking office as the chairman of China Film, La Peikang decided to lead the team himself to the Berlin International Film Festival to purchase foreign language films. Just like Han Sanping did at the beginning, he did it himself!

"La Dong, Yifei and I will leave on the 2nd. We should not be able to get together, there are so many people."

"Do you think I called to tell you about this? What did you do to those directors? When I went to the bureau today, I saw others talking about you!"

"Me?"

Lin Nan paused and reacted instantly.

"Yeah, I remember now. They came to the company to block me, and I asked my assistant to tell them that I was not in the company. That's all."

"Do they know you are here?"

"They should...know. Yeah, they know!"

"Haha, no wonder you are so upset. It turns out that you are being ignored..."

La Peikang's voice fell, and two seconds later his tone slowed down: "Lin Nan, by then... forget it, let's talk about it at the end of February."

Until La Peikang hung up the phone, Lin Nan still felt puzzled, "What? Let's talk about it at the end of February? Did those old guys go to sue me?"

China Film.

After La Peikang put down his phone, he called his secretary in.

"We will leave early and arrive before the opening ceremony. Tell the people below that if the association comes again, tell them that I'm not here."

"Okay, Mr. La."

After watching the secretary leave the office, La Peikang muttered:

"You are a 'dead task', but China Film Group is not. You should deal with your own problems. It would be best if you can solve them first...

Mr. Han, should you forget about this last resort? The consequences are unpredictable, and Lin Nan's temper may... Otherwise, try my method?"

…………

Liu Xiaoli, who had been "on vacation" for several months in her hometown, finally came back.

Liu Yifei drove her mother's BMW early in the morning and ran to the airport an hour in advance.

However, before she picked up the person, Lin Nan saw the news about Miss Liu on the hot search, and also included him.

"Liu Yifei showed up at the airport to pick up her mother. Director Lin Nan did not follow..."

"The Berlin International Film Festival is about to open, and Liu Yifei will go with Director Lin Nan... Liu Xiaoli arrived in Beijing today and will prepare for New Year's Eve, waiting for the two to return..."

The picture accompanying the news is a photo of Liu Yifei sitting in the main driver's seat, wearing burgundy sunglasses, with long hair, looking out through the half-open car window.

Not to mention, this shot is quite good!

After admiring it for a while, Lin Nan picked up his mobile phone and made a call.

The last time he saw Old Lin was 5 months ago, when he and Liu Yifei got engaged.

And now, it's not far from New Year's Eve, only 20 days left...

The call was answered just five seconds after the other side got through.

"Oh, you called this year, it's quite early to take a taxi? Are you and Xixi coming back or something?"

Old Lin's full voice came from the mobile phone.

I don't know when he started to speak "Mandarin", it seems to have been a long time, but it's hard to get used to it completely.

Lin Nan could tell that there was a hint of expectation in his father's tone.

"Dad, the 18th of next month is New Year's Eve. But I have to attend a film festival in Germany with Xixi, which will end on the 15th. Maybe I can win an award. After that, there may be some film copyright transactions, so I may not be able to come back."

"What? So you two may spend the New Year abroad?"

"Yeah, that's about right."

Lin Nan responded, and only heard a subconscious sigh from the other end of the phone.

"Okay, you two should be safe outside. I'll come over when you get married this year. Also, you're not young anymore, what should you be busy with after marriage, you know?"

Lin Nan's nose was a little sour just now, and he felt that he owed Old Lin a lot, but when he heard "inducing labor", he couldn't help laughing.

"I know, I know everything. Hahaha..."

"Laughing? This is a big event in life! I saw on the news that another celebrity got a marriage certificate a few days ago, you should hurry up..."

Lin Nan listened and laughed. What could he say? He had paid tens of millions of dollars to get the marriage certificate!

"Well, hurry up, hurry up."

"Hurry up..."

After a 20-minute phone call, Lin Nan originally thought that he would be very sad after the call, all because of the sentimentality of his old father, but it turned out not to be the case. The more he called, the more "interesting" it became!

But fortunately, as long as Old Lin can be full of energy to scold people, this is a good thing, proving that he is in good health!

...

Lin Nan was eating a fruit plate and reading the news.

At about 11 o'clock in the afternoon, the sound of a car horn sounded from a hundred meters away and woke him up.

Lin Nan knew that Liu Yifei and Liu Xiaoli were back and should have just driven into the villa next door. After putting on his shoes, he went straight there.

A group of cats and dogs hadn't seen Liu Xiaoli for a long time, and they circled around her.

The tails were wagging, and the meows were meowing. The scene was very warm and harmonious.

"Mom."

"Hey. Lin Nan, I bought some vegetables when I came back just now. You and Xixi wait in the house. We can have dinner soon."

Liu Xiaoli smiled and reminded him, and then took out two plastic bags from the trunk. They were the vegetables she bought.

Lin Nan hurried over to take them, and Liu Xiaoli was not polite.

Liu Yifei watched with a smile on the side, "I can just wait to eat."

"I'd better help, it's faster this way." Lin Nan arranged.

"Xixi, you come too. If you can't cook, you can always pick vegetables. You are so old, what will you do when you have a child?"

As soon as Liu Xiaoli opened her mouth, she pulled her own daughter along.

"Didn't you say I was waiting for dinner?" Liu Yifei muttered.

"I changed my mind, I have to teach you."

"There is the nanny... and you, mom... and Lin Nan... I really can't learn it, it's not like I haven't learned it before, I'm clumsy..."

Liu Yifei continued to be stubborn, and her IQ and EQ were declining rapidly at this time.

Seeing that the situation was not good, Lin Nan walked into the villa quickly with a plastic bag. If he stayed any longer, he might see Liu Yifei being "taught a lesson".

And the final result was that Miss Liu made him share the hardship!
