That year Huayu

"Wu Er Shan!"

According to the plan, this star gravity project will be brewing for more than two years, and a few will be selected from many candidates for key support.

Lin Nan was recruited by Liu Dehua to speed up the project.

After looking at his resume, I saw that although this person graduated from Nortel's directing department, he worked as an advertising director after graduation.

So far, I have only made one independent film, which won a marginal award at the Busan Film Festival.

"It's really incomparable to Ning Hao." Lin Nan sighed.

But he decided that this was it.

Looking at his resume, Wu Ershan has something in the art field. It should be no problem for him to help him and become an assistant director.

Lin Nan replied an email to Liu Dehua and decided to choose Wu Ershan.

…

"Red Cliff" was originally going to start filming at the end of this month, but suddenly news broke that the cast was changing roles.

The media also learned for the first time the actual budget of "Red Cliff", which was 600 million.

Because the movie was divided into two parts, one and two, many actors were clamoring for a salary increase. For example, Tony Leung, who replaced Chow Yun-fat, asked for an increase from US$1.5 million to US$3 million, and the former wanted a higher salary at the time.

Lin Nan felt that Han Sanping must be having a big headache right now. This project was still decided by him. It looked like he might not be able to start the machine on time.

South Korea's "Monster on the Han River" did not show any signs of acclimatization. It took in a box office of 10 million in the three days of the weekend, and the growth was so fierce that domestic films in the same period were unable to fight back.

Lin Nan's "Buried Alive" will be released a week later.

China Film Group, the company responsible for arranging films, really miscalculated this time. There were too many imported films.

Domestic films in the same period were all complaining about this situation. They were doomed to suffer from being squeezed by imported films.

Hua Yi was looking for trouble and actually released the news that he had got the female lead in Lin Nan's new movie "Painted Skin". As for which actor she was, it didn't matter whether she was revealed or not.

Because Li Bingbing is in "The King of Kung Fu" and "Painted Skin" seems to be about to leave the film, plus the reported production cost of 100 million.

The only person within Huayi who can hold his own is the best actress, Zhou Xun.

This caused many people to come to Lin Nan to inquire about this matter. There was no need for him to hide it and he admitted it generously.

Zhu Yawen was also curious about why Lin Nan gave the role to Hua Yi.

Lin Nan could only be vague. She couldn't expose Liu Xiaoli's shortcomings. She had to consider Liu Yifei's feelings.

In addition, Lin Nan took advantage of the situation and wanted to use Zhou Xun, while making Wang Zhonglei think that this was a benefit given by Lin Nan to completely calm down the Liu Xiaoli incident.

Ying Huang sent a message to Lin Nan that for the drama "Ip Man", they would work hard to do their best.

However, Lin Nan did see a new drama invested by Yinghuang and Shanghai Film Studio, "Slam Dunk".

No wonder Shanghai Film Studio didn't get involved in the "Painted Skin" thing. It turned out that it was focused on this project.

Jay Chou's fan effect has been proven many times. As long as it is a movie starring him, his fans can push the box office to hundreds of millions.

The person chosen by Lin Nan to play Pang Yong has arrived.

Tall, handsome, and well-liked by the audience, he fits the temperament of the first commander of the Wang Family Army in the movie.

Only this kind of person can impress everyone in the movie background and in such troubled times.

"Director Lin, long time no see."

"Brother Jiao, sit down quickly."

In the reception room, Lin Nan invited with a smile.

Jiao Enjun was a choice in his mind. After the news from the Hong Kong media came out, he simply made his decision.

Jiao Enjun is a member of the one-man gang. If a person can push open the door of the CCTV TV drama production center, you can imagine his strength.

Good-looking or handsome actors are always overlooked for their acting skills.

But this is not obvious with Jiao Enjun, his acting skills are great.

What impressed Lin Nan the most was his Zhuo Donglai, whose acting skills were explosive and charming.

"I am very honored to receive a film invitation from Director Lin, but as you know, "The Prequel to the Lotus Lantern" will start shooting at the end of August, so in terms of time..."

Jiao Enjun spoke up.

"Don't worry, it will be completed before July, so there should be no problem. I plan to finish this movie within two to three months."

"That's fine, I can still take it out during this time."

The two sat and chatted for a while, and Lin Nan told Jiao Enjun that Shu Chang was among the actors this time, and they were also acquaintances.

…

Not long after Jiao Enjun left, there was news on the Internet.

There is a high probability that Bay Island actor Chiao Enjun will join "Painted Skin".

Many netizens thought this was Lin Nan's response to the previous Hong Kong media, but most viewers were looking forward to it.

"Jiao Enjun? That's really great. Li Xunhuan, Erlangshen, Zhuo Donglai..."

"If he plays "Painted Skin", he won't kill the fox demon in one round, right? After all, I am the God of Justice, haha..."

Lin Nan could guess how happy the netizens were.

Jackie Chan and Jet Li went to Beijing, along with those foreign actors.

The media broke the news that Li Lianjie was working on "The Mummy 3", and the topic became full of buzz in an instant.

The Beidian Arts Examination has ended successfully, and the final pass list has been posted.

Many people who were dismissed from the undergraduate program turned around and went to Nortel Vocational College with very clear goals.

Lu Zheng called and specifically talked about this matter with Lin Nan. In and out of his words, he hoped to take more care of Jingtian in the future. Now he can be regarded as a senior brother and junior sister.

Lin Nan said a few perfunctory words but didn't take it seriously.

Liu Yifei finally rested and ran out of the martial arts school.

Together with Shu Chang and Zhu Yawen, the four of them had a barbecue at Lin Nan's side.

Wang Jinghua still failed to get Zhu Yawen into the cast of "Red Cliff", but there are many TV series and endorsements.

"The four of us haven't gotten together in a long time."

Everyone agrees with what Zhu Yawen said. We usually have things going on and it’s hard to get everything together.

"Changchang, I heard from Director Zhao that you went to accompany the audition in person?"

Lin Nan asked.

Shu Chang nodded silently, "Well, the elder asked me to follow..."

"Save your own remuneration, this is no longer the case when you were a child." Lin Nan reminded her tactfully.

"Changchang knows, you don't need to remind me." Liu Yifei said.

Only Shu Chang understood what Lin Nan meant. She gave a lot of her salary as a child to relatives, selflessly.

Seeing Shu Chang's absent-minded state, Lin Nan stopped talking about this topic.

Let’s talk about the film and television industry instead.

Lu Chuan's "Nanjing" has spent 20 million to build the city, but the planned start-up time has been delayed again and again.

At this moment, it was finally revealed that the reason was revealed. The script review was rejected and the filming permit was not obtained.

"He should have written something that he shouldn't have written. Otherwise, for a movie with China Film and a provincial radio and television station as the producer, it would be impossible for the script to be rejected."

Lin Nan gave his own judgment.

This kind of subject matter was rejected without even thinking about it. Either the three views were distorted or the theme and thinking were distorted.

I just don’t know if Lu Chuan will change the script a little bit next, or find a relationship with his teacher again, or do both?

It was said to be a barbecue for four people, but the two women really didn't want to get involved.

Shu Chang is better, Liu Yifei really has no talent in the kitchen. Shu Chang followed suit, holding his best friend's arm and waiting to eat.

Lin Nan and Zhu Yawen were busy during the whole process.

A few hours passed quickly, and everyone went back to their homes.

Lin Nan drove Liu Yifei back to the martial arts school.

"The camera will be turned on later, and we won't see each other for a long time. I will miss you..."

Liu Yifei muttered. She didn't know when she started to speak these words easily.

"Me too."

Lin Nan replied politely, and a smile appeared on the girl's face.

"By the way, if you leave Auntie behind and run back alone today, won't she have any objections?"

"No way. Ever since it was confirmed that she would play the role of the Queen Mother, I have been thinking about her two scenes all day long. I am obsessed with it."

Liu Yifei laughed and complained about her mother.

"arrive."

Lin Nan parked the car outside the martial arts school and did not go in this time. When he met Jackie Chan and the others, they had to greet each other for a while.

"Um?"

Liu Yifei pointed to her cheek and signaled to Lin Nan.

Just one click and the task is completed.

"Okay, go back quickly. Didn't you answer the phone just now? You have something serious to do."

Liu Yifei smiled and waved and entered the martial arts school.

It's business.

I was still deciding who to cast for the role of Pei Rong.

As a result, someone recommended actors.

Chen Minghao and Zeng Li recommended their classmates.

As soon as Lin Nan entered the company, the front desk told him that three people were already in the reception room.

Chen Minghao, Zeng Li, and Mei Ting.

I guess I was annoyed by the media, so I decided to just find a movie to film and hide away.

"How do you know I'm the only one missing? Haha."

"This is fate." Chen Minghao smiled.

"Sister Mei Ting, hello."

"Director Lin."

Lin Nan knew the recent entertainment gossip. Mei Ting had been reported to be divorced since November last year, and he officially admitted that they were divorced a few days ago.

The media has been chasing her lately.

If Mei Ting were to play Pei Rong, not to mention it would be quite suitable, with a good acting skills and a good audience base.

Lin Nan also envied Chen Minghao and the others. They were able to introduce resources to each other, which was better than most people.

"Let me make a promise first that no drama will be allowed during the time we are in the group." Lin Nan said.

"Don't worry, Director Lin, the drama will not happen on the set of "Painted Skin"." Mei Ting smiled.

"Okay, until July at the latest, Senior Sister Mei Ting, just set aside this period of time."

Recommendations from acquaintances have this advantage, as they will not push unqualified actors over.

…

"It's really successful? You didn't even try out for the audition?"

In the car, Mei Ting said in a daze.

"How else should I try? Director Lin will take a look and see that your image is suitable. As for your acting skills, he must know about you. You are the Best Actress in Cairo, the Best Actress in Huabiao, and you have been nominated for the Best Actress in Golden Rooster..."

Chen Minghao started counting on his fingers, and suddenly realized something.

"Haha, the year you nominated the Golden Rooster Best Actress, Director Lin's "Into the Dust" also failed to produce any results. It's best not to mention this."

Some actors are very cost-effective, such as Mei Ting, whose acting skills are absolutely up to par and the price is not very expensive.

Now that all the actors have been selected, let’s look at the progress of the logistics team.

Inspection of filming locations, design and production of costumes and props, etc.

It will definitely be easier for Mei Ting to play Pei Rong.

Unlike the original time, Zhao Yanzi actually refused the look the crew designed for Pei Rong after she was poisoned, on the grounds that it would harm her audience image!

It's bullshit.

That is to say, because she is a bigger celebrity, she actually forced the crew to succeed in the end, and successfully changed the look and redesigned it.

Logically speaking, actors cannot ask for this kind of transformational request.

It's outrageous to use the position of the second female lead to steal the limelight from the first female lead, and then turn it into a double female lead during the final promotion.

If this is left in Lin Nan's hands, she will definitely get out.
