Chapter 182 "Assembly Number", "The Three Swordsmen"
Lin Nan was at the airport and saw a giant poster of "The Certificate of Voting".
The world premiere is supposed to be held today.
"Director Lin?"
Someone shouted, and Lin Nan noticed that it was several reporters.
"Still staying at the airport today? Shouldn't you go to the premiere of director Chen Kexin?"
"There are colleagues over there. We are lucky, won't we be able to defend Director Lin? Haha..."
Don’t reach out to hit the smiling person.
Lin Nan compiled his performance for several reporters.
Ten minutes later, the interview ended and Lin Nan got in the car to pick him up.
"Director Lin, both "The Signature" and "Assembly Number" have sent invitations to the premieres..."
"When is "Assembly"?"
"the day after tomorrow."
"Go to China Film Academy first." Lin Nan ordered.
In less than an hour, the news that "Painted Skin" had completed all post-production, including the special effects, was on the news.
Photos of Lin Nan chatting with reporters at the airport also appeared online.
China Film, post-production center.
The complete film of "Painted Skin" is being played, and Lin Nan is working on it alone.
There is nothing wrong with the picture, background, color tone... everything is beautiful.
"According to Director Lin's request, the one-minute-and-thirty-second trailer has been cut separately."
"Then contact Bona, this is their job."
Lin Nan stared at the movie screen and said to the people on the side.
According to the agreed time, CJ, Sony and other film producers will arrive tomorrow.
Lin Nan notified several producers of China Film about this matter in the afternoon.
On the other side, news about the premiere of "The Call to Action" was everywhere, and it seemed to be a large-scale cultural event.
Just look at the on-site photos leaked online and you can see hundreds of celebrities in the industry.
Liu Dehua, Jet Li, and Jin Chengwu are the biggest selling points, and Han Sanping is firmly in the middle.
In the evening, Lin Nan drove to Nortel. Part of the post-production of "Racing" was done in school, and he did not go to China Film Studio.
When several people were having dinner together, they saw an acquaintance.
Huang Xiaoming was accompanied by a woman who looked very intimate.
"Do you want to call us over?" Ning Hao looked at Lin Nan.
Before Lin Nan could answer, Huang Xiaoming had noticed a few people over there and led them over.
"Director Lin, Director Ning, what a coincidence. Let's share a table."
"Sit down quickly, I'll order some more dishes." Xing Aina stood up and left.
"Let me introduce you two. This is my girlfriend, Li Feier. We met when we were filming "The Deer and the Cauldron"."
"Hello directors, I am Li Feier."
This reminded Lin Nan of Huang Xiaoming's ex-girlfriend from last year, who was now with Lu Chuan, and she was not serious at all.
At the dinner table, Huang Xiaoming was so meticulous that Xing Aina stared at Ning Hao.
This is near Nortel, and many people passing by have noticed this table.
More than an hour later, Huang Xiaoming and others left.
"If they hadn't seen the three of us, maybe everyone else would have been at home right now."
Ning Hao made a joke, which earned Xing Aina a blank stare.
"But haven't you heard of it before?"
"Maybe it's the relationship that was just established recently?"
…
Domestic reporters are also quite good.
The next morning, Lin Nan saw Huang Xiaoming's gossip.
In addition to having dinner with himself and others near Nortel, he was also photographed returning to the apartment with the woman, leaving around early in the morning.
"Report of Voting" is officially released.
Lin Nan met people from Sony, CJ and Showbox at the company. There was no communication between the two South Korean companies throughout the process.
No one from Xiying or Ningying came, and only four of the six investors came.
People from Sony were watching the movie intently, nodding their heads from time to time, as were people from CJ and Showbox.
People from China Film, Lighting, and Wanda also looked at it seriously. This was also the first time for them to see the finished film.
After the movie ended, Sony people gave an answer on the spot.
"Next, we can talk about the issue of distribution and release in island countries.
Sony will take it back to China and even cooperate with you to release it on the same day..."
According to the rules for imported films from the island country, there is no problem for "Painted Skin" to be released there.
For subsequent contract signing issues, China Film will specifically negotiate with Sony.
Only CJ and Showbox were left, and no one was willing to give in.
This is the result that Lin Nan and others hope to see.
In the end, there was a dispute, but it was Lin Nan who suggested that they cooperate in publishing, and the matter was settled.
The box office results of "The Call to Action" are out.
In 6 hours, it exceeded 10 million, and the box office on the first day reached 21 million.
The industry exclaimed that this is another movie that is going to break 200 million.
The one minute and thirty second trailer for "Painted Skin" appeared online.
It attracted a large number of movie fans and audiences, and also grabbed a lot of news attention from "The Film".
The scene of Wang Sheng fighting with a halberd and looking at Xiao Wei.
The warmth of walking out of the tent with Zhou Xun under one arm.
Jiao Enjun is wearing armor and fighting against the iron blood of hundreds of bandits.
…
The ninety-second video flashed through a lot of shots.
"Zhou Xun's eyes can really speak!"
"The leader is so handsome."
"Hu Ge's style is weird, but I like it..."
…
The effect of the trailer is surprisingly good.
Wang Zhonglei personally called and asked Lin Nan to come to the premiere of "Assembly Number".
Lin Nan agreed. Huayi, who had just completed the third round of financing, was now very wealthy.
In this year's Lunar New Year episode, "Assembly Number" is going to compete with "Vote for Name".
The scale of the premiere is not inferior to that of "The Letter of Contestation".
In the words of Wang Zhongjun: We are not afraid of losing money and making a profit.
Of course I’m not afraid anymore, it’s all on the news network.
When Lin Nan arrived at the scene, he was shocked by the formation.
It feels like attending a film festival.
There are more than 200 celebrity artists alone.
Even Fan Bingbing, who left Huayi, came.
Zhang Guoli, Zhao Benshan, Zhang Jizhong...
Almost all the actors in Feng Xiaogang's previous movies are here.
"Director Lin, please come in quickly."
Everyone who saw Lin Nan coming and going greeted him warmly.
Ning Hao was surrounded by Li Bingbing, Ren Quan and others, while Jiang Wen was talking to Ge You.
Lin Nan also saw Lu Chuan, flanked by Fan Wei, Gao Yuanyuan...
"Director Lin, I can actually try singing the song "Drawing Heart"."
Zhou Xun wore a burgundy dress, which looked very white, and she said with a smile.
"Forget it, your smoky voice is not suitable for this song.
It was so good before, I also listened to your "Piao Yao", why didn't you protect it?"
Lin Nan complained.
"Haha, you have heard of my songs. They are not bad and you have the level of appreciation."
Zhou Xun smiled wildly, attracting the attention of many people around him.
A bunch of strange eyes were staring at this side. Lin Nan felt a little awkward and reminded:
"Image, lady..."
"Okay, okay, I've always been straightforward, everyone in the circle knows it.
My voice was fine at the beginning, but I have become a bit dissolute in the past few years, and it is hopeless..."
Lin Nan felt that Zhou Xun was just a tough talker.
The premiere performance begins.
Li Bingbing sang the ending theme of "A World Without Thieves".
Huang Xiaoming came up with the song "See You or Be Seen", and his singing skills were average.
Even Huayi's newly signed "Good Man" group came up and looked familiar.
…
The movie starts.
No wonder Hua Yi and Feng Xiaogang swear by it.
This movie is really well shot, with big scenes of war scenes.
The two-hour movie ended quickly.
Many people are still immersed in the video just now.
Zhang Hanyu and Deng Chao's performances are both outstanding.
During the interview session, "Assembly Number" will inevitably be compared with "The Letter of Voting" to talk about things.
"If we talk about the content of the movie, I don't think ours is any worse than those there. Their cast is just bigger.
As for the box office, it seems a bit false for me to say this. There are many directors here, why not ask them to make predictions."
Almost all directors have given an estimate of more than 100 million. After all, there is "Certificate of Investment" in the front and "Yangtze River No. 7" in the back. They are all tough battles.
"I think there will be a "Assembly" in the 200 million club soon."
Talking about the matter, Lin Nan cannot deny how exciting this movie is.
Many people couldn't believe it when they heard Lin Nan's words. Are you so sure?
"Okay, Chenglin guides Jiyan."
Wang Zhonglei was the first to speak, with a facial expression smile.
…………
"Assembly Number" was officially released, so much so that the box office of "Report" was directly cut in half.
The two films shared almost 90% of the market.
The remuneration of the actors in "The Proposal" was revealed by Chen Kexin on the talk show.
A movie that cost 40 million U.S. dollars was converted into 300 million U.S. dollars at the time.
And Li Lianjie directly took away 100 million, which was still a friendship price, and the remuneration was less than 20 million.
In addition, Andy Lau, Kim Sung-wu, etc. all have tens of millions of dollars in salary, and the proportion of actors' fees in this movie exceeds 50%, and this does not include Chen Kexin's fees.
After the movie's box office exceeded 100 million, it seemed like it was wilting.
Looking back at "Assembly", it has great stamina.
"There is no need to wait for the result, the "Report of Name" will definitely result in blood loss.
Of course, the only loser is the producer."
Lin Nan knew who Chen Kexin was. He spent 100 million on those tattered costume props. Who would believe it?
A joint anti-piracy announcement was posted on major news websites.
Lin Nan even felt that China Film Group and the others were beginning to prepare a way out for "Tou Mingzhuan".
For example: Losing money is because there are too many pirated copies?
But the large number of negative reviews cannot cover it up at all.
The aesthetic power is insufficient, the plot and script are weak, and the war scenes lose points...
…
Han Sanping took the time to talk to Lin Nan and complained about the domestic box office of "Twilight". This made the latter couldn't help but laugh.
Cai Yinong's call came to Lin Nan.
"Director Lin, we are ready to start the project for "Sword and Sword III".
According to the previous contract, you own 40% of the investment, but you cannot interfere in the creation."
"Well, I will send someone to Tangren to sign the investment agreement later."
"There is one more thing I want to ask Director Lin."
"What happened?"
"Daewoo hopes to invite Yifei, even for a guest appearance. Can Director Lin help?"
With Liu Yifei's current celebrity status, Cai Yinong knew that she couldn't afford to hire her, and she also said she would no longer act in TV series.
But she still wanted to give it a try, even if it was a guest scene.
"Mr. Cai, please don't open your mouth about this kind of thing. Yifei will not consider participating in the show or making a guest appearance."
Lin Nan said with an unquestionable tone.
"I, I understand. Director Lin, please send someone over as soon as possible."
Chapter completed!
