That year Huayu

Leonardo and Nolan are both serious about movies.

This project will not be leaked casually.

The latter expressed to Lin Nan that he hopes to introduce his old club Warner.

Although this was a request, Lin Nan accepted it without thinking.

The relationship between Nolan and Warner Bros. is equivalent to that of James Wan and Lions Gate.

Besides, this movie also needs to be distributed globally.

Lin Nan told Nolan that he would wait for him to identify several more investors and then discuss the specific division together.

The time is set for next spring.

…

The special effects part of "Painted Skin" has been packaged.

Lin Nan asked Yue Jun to arrange for someone to pick it up directly. He was not very confident about the mailing method.

"Director Lin, Director Yue asked me to report to you that casting for the TV series directed by Kang Honglei has begun."

"I understand. Take the things back and send them to China Film's "Painted Skin" post-production team."

Lin Nan gave a special instruction.

The last time I went to Golden Horse was in 2003. Lin Nan won the Best Newcomer Award and Best Original Screenplay.

Unexpectedly, I received an invitation this year while I was in Hollywood.

Lin Nan is not ready to go.

"Ip Man" has been filming on and off for more than half a year, and it is almost finished now.

Lin Nan had to go and have a look, and Yinghuang had urged him several times.

Tom felt a little regretful when he learned that Lin Nan was about to leave Hollywood.

“Awards season is starting and you’re going to miss a lot of parties and drinks.

At least, with your status, it is difficult to refuse those young and beautiful girls. What a pity. "

As soon as he opened his mouth, Tom's wretched temperament was fully exposed.

"Be more restrained and try to flirt with less women. I'm afraid you'll be killed sooner or later."

"What's the meaning?"

"Either you died suddenly on the bed, or the woman was crushed to death on the bed, haha..."

"Lin, your words are so hurtful. I'm already trying to lose weight."

"Okay, I'm going to set off. Keep an eye on the later stages of "The Martian" and the preparations of the "New Moon" crew for me.

The next time I come here, it will be to talk about big projects. "

Tom knew what Lin Nan was talking about and nodded, "Don't worry, I know the priorities."

Watch Lin Nan get into the car and be taken to the airport.

Tom slapped his head suddenly, "It's time to go check out the stocks..."

…………

"Twilight" was released in the country.

Although the film had only one week of box office potential in North America, it grossed $70 million.

China Film believes that it can give it a try in the country.

Anyway, I still have some money left to buy movies this year, so why not use it as soon as possible.

"Is the first day's data out?"

"When it came out, it was less than two million. Maybe we didn't publicize it enough?" the secretary answered carefully.

"How's the feedback?"

"Young people think it's okay, but they all say the story is too old-fashioned. And there are too many pirated copies..."

"Piracy?"

Han Sanping also has a headache with this problem. In the WTO, this issue has been complained about countless times domestically.

"That's it, try to arrange as many movies as possible. Anyway, there won't be any blockbuster movies in these ten days."

…

Hong Kong Island International Airport.

At the beginning of the year, Lin Nan also flew over from Hollywood.

"As the artist director of Yinghuang Group, Ms. Huo is usually so free?"

It was Huo Wenxi again who came to pick him up.

"It's part of my job to pick up Director Lin."

Looking at Huo Wenxi with a smile on her face, Lin Nan admired her for her high EQ and IQ.

After getting in the car, the driver drove towards the Yinghuang headquarters.

"I haven't congratulated Director Lin yet. The movie "Twilight" I invested in was a box office hit again. I wonder if you will continue to participate in the sequel?"

"Yes, I am not short of funds." Lin Nan could hear what the other party meant.

The smile on Huo Wenxi's face did not change at all.

"Director Yang is waiting at the group. This time Director Lin comes over. I have to let the group's artists recognize you and make you familiar. Let's see which one of them is lucky enough to be in Director Lin's movie..."

Many artists in the UK and Huang know that Sister Mani has passed away.

The other party was none other than the youngest director from the Mainland.

"It seems that he came to see "Ip Man". This is the only film the group has collaborated with him on."

"Then shall we come?"

"Take a chance."

…

Lin Nan followed Huo Wenxi into the Yinghuang Building. As soon as he entered, he felt like he was in the wrong place.

A lot of young artists are there.

"Director Huo, are you holding an annual meeting?"

"No, this is arranged by Director Yang. He will meet Director Lin tonight."

"Hello, Director Lin, I am..."

…

…

Regardless of whether they knew each other or not, everyone came up to say hello, but why were they all women?

"Director Lin, Gillian and Sa, you should remember that they are a team, and I took them to meet you at the premiere of "Myth".

Gillian is very lucky, she has just finished filming "Mei Lanfang" directed by Chen Kaige, playing the role of the young Fu Zhifang..."

Lin Nan looked at the two girls in front of him who were smiling and half bowing their heads, and nodded, feeling a little surprised.

Yinghuang really worked hard, and actually stuffed people into Chen Kaige's crew, and he didn't know what benefits he was promised.

"It's a pity that Tingfeng and the others are not here today, otherwise I would have come over to meet Director Lin. They are the male artists that the group's film and television industry strongly supports."

When saying this, Huo Wenxi looked sad.

"them?"

Lin Nan roughly guessed who Huo Wenxi was referring to, and said bluntly: "No, Mandarin is too poor."

Huo Wenxi was a little embarrassed, Lin Nan's words didn't leave any room.

"Oh, by the way. That fellow director Lin is now confirmed to star in "Dream of Red Mansions", playing the role of Xue Baochai."

Lin Nan found it a bit funny, "I've only met him once, so I'm not familiar with him. Director Huo is thinking too much."

When Yang Shoucheng's office arrived, Huo Wenxi stepped forward and knocked on the door. When he heard the reply, he pushed it open.

"Director Lin Nan, sit down quickly, I thought you would be here soon."

Yang Shoucheng still looks elegant and polite, but this is Lin Nan. If another director came over, he would not look like this.

"Director Yang, is "Ip Man" finished?"

"It's already finished. I'm just waiting for you to come over and then hold the final banquet."

…………

That night, at Lin Nan's request, no Yingying Yanyan appeared at the dinner table.

Yang Shoucheng smiled a little strangely, "I heard from Mani that Director Lin thinks a certain Yinghuang artist is suitable for ancient costumes?

Do you want to be friends? I can guarantee this. I guess there is no girl who doesn’t admire you..."

Lin Nan was shocked. Why are you so naked?

"Director Yang is kidding, I am not Jackie Chan."

Lin Nan's answer made Yang Shoucheng a little nervous. Is this a rejection?

"We are all young people, love is a normal need..."

Yang Shoucheng is not done yet.

"Director Yang, I have someone I like."

Lin Nan raised his voice.

This answer is really fresh and refined. For so many years, Yang Shoucheng has never seen anyone refuse it for this reason.

"Director Yang, just tell me what's going on, there's no need to go around so much."

Lin Nan made it clear directly that this old guy obviously had other things on his mind.

"Okay, then just listen to Director Lin.

"Painted Skin" has only set a release date and distribution company in the mainland, but what about other regions? "

Lin Nan asked why Yang Shoucheng made all these fancy things as soon as he came up. He really wanted to make money from him.

"I'm preparing to finalize this matter in a few days. I can leave it to Ying Huang on Hong Kong Island, because besides Director Yang, I have no other choice."

Yang Shoucheng was a little satisfied, "What about Southeast Asia?"

"There is a high probability that China Film Group is responsible, except for a few areas."

Although he had a guess in advance, Yang Shoucheng was still a little reluctant to hear this result from Lin Nan.

"Let's focus on "Ip Man". If the results of this movie are okay, Ying Huang and I can continue to work together on sequels.

If the market feedback is not good, then you really need to be cautious in the future. "

Yang Shoucheng cheered up for a moment.

…………

The next day, Ying Huang held the final press conference for "Ip Man".

Lin Nan, as one of the producers, went to the scene.

There were many reporters, and many of them mentioned the film about Ye Wen that Wang Jiawei was preparing.

Lin Nan and Yang Shoucheng were prepared for this.

"You might as well ask Master Ye Wen's descendant, Mr. Ye, about this question. He is here today."

The scene was very embarrassing for a while. Journalists couldn't say in front of direct descendants that you shouldn't make this film, because director Wang Jiawei had been preparing for it for a long time.

“I am the consultant for this movie. When this movie was made, I was asked for my opinion. I read the script and agreed to it before we made it.

In order to ensure quality, Director Yang of Yinghuang specially invited me to be a consultant for this film.

As for other movies, no one has said hello to me..."

Mainly anti-customer, beautiful!

Lin Nan praised it in his heart.

After today, "Ip Man" will be the movie recognized by the Ip family, and the rest are not orthodox enough.

The paparazzi in Hong Kong turned around and ran to find Wang Jiawei.

As for whether there will be any gains, I don’t know.

The Golden Horse on the Bay Island also came out with results. Li An, a native of his hometown, swept seven awards including Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Actor with "Lust, Caution", which is terrifying.

Lin Nan did not stay longer on Hong Kong Island and took the flight directly back to the capital.

The company has already sent movie invitations to Sony, CJ, and Showbox.

The release of "Painted Skin" in South Korea and island countries, two important ticket markets, should also be confirmed.

Han Sanping has been in a bad mood these past two days.

"Twilight", which was bought for US$3 million, did not make much waves in the domestic film market.

Like it in North America, the box office potential is minimal, but the numbers are wildly different.

Less than ten days after its release, it failed to perform well, and its box office finally stopped at 11 million.

Even if China Film Company distributes it itself and has theater chains, the amount that can be distributed is estimated to be only 7 million.

But it cost 21 million to buy this movie.

It is equivalent to losing two-thirds directly.

"He really made it right, he's not acclimatized!"

Lin Nan saw the domestic box office news of "Twilight" on the plane.

"Oh, Mr. Han, Mr. Han, just think of it as making up for the money you paid for "Buried Alive"."

Lin Nan smiled and muttered, feeling very good.
