Chapter 1087: Coward Again; Wrap-Up, Flight, Press Conference
Chapter 1087: Be a coward again; Wrap-up, flight, press conference...
At seven o'clock in the evening, on the Bund, Lin Nan, Liu Yifei, Ning Hao, and Zhu Yawen finally had the dinner that Tang Yan invited them to.
Zhang Hanyu didn't come. He left immediately after the press conference ended because his schedule was too full;
In addition, he also knew that if he came, it would definitely affect the atmosphere of the meal, so that no one could relax.
"We are drinking red wine and eating delicious food here. I don't know what my brother Luo Jin is doing now? Well, it is likely that he has been training for a day and is lying on the bed with sore body!"
"Go to hell." Tang Yan frowned and glared at Zhu Yawen unhappily. This guy did it on purpose.
"It's almost the same. Anyway, it won't be too comfortable. But he will definitely make money on this trip, not only in terms of resources, but also in terms of connections."
Lin Nan said with a smile. The project of the Navy Political Department is not just a matter of a single movie. It will leave an impression on the leading actor, which is the most important gain for an actor outside of the movie.
"Tangtang, Luo Jin might even win an award this time. Director Lu Yang was so cocky those days, Lin Nan guessed he must have gotten a big prize from the Navy leaders."
Liu Yifei giggled and winked at Tang Yan.
"No, I didn't say that." Director Lin immediately shook his head and refused to admit it.
"Ah? Right, right, you didn't say that, I guessed it, okay?" Liu Yifei quickly changed her words, but her smile was obviously a little fake.
"He has been nominated several times. I hope your guess is right this time, Xixi. Come on, let's drink to your good wishes."
Liu Yifei and Tang Yan started drinking. Lin Nan wanted to make a joke, but Ning Hao interrupted him and handed him his phone as if he was watching the fun:
"Look, you directly criticized Feng Xiaogang by name at the press conference this afternoon. It's only been more than an hour, and the Internet has quickly fermented and spread.
When we wake up tomorrow morning, it will probably be a completely uncontrollable situation. Director Feng has been ruined by your colleague again on the Internet. He has lost face."
"He did something shameless and shameless. Can I blame it on him? I just said a fair word for the Normal University with a clear attitude. .
In addition, I was truthful and didn't lie to slander him. It was he who had bad intentions to slander the school in order to take advantage of the opportunity to hype and embarrass all filmmakers! What, he still wants to make trouble for me? "
"Haha, guess how much you believe me? You must still want to take the opportunity to kill the competitor "I Am Not Madame Bovary"!
But they also brought it upon themselves and burned themselves with fire, and you just happened to catch them and add insult to injury. Tsk tsk tsk..."
Lin Nan did not deny it, but smiled and nodded in the "expecting" eyes of the three people, "Is it not too much to say something personal when I speak out for justice?"
"Hahaha, you are really a thief..."
"Hehe, I support Lin Nan."
"Director Lin, I didn't hear anything, hehe."
...
At about 9:40 in the evening, Lin Nan and the other four boarded the return flight. When they landed at the Capital Airport two hours later, it was already early in the morning.
And when the four people went back to their homes to report their safety, it was almost two in the morning. However, this time is completely commonplace for people in the film and television industry.
"Why... did you set the alarm? It's still... 7:30 in the morning?"
At home, Liu Yifei was lying on the bed in a daze, looking at Lin Nan, squinting her eyes and asking with a hum.
"My classmate Liu Qianqian, have you forgotten? There is also the premiere of "Mr. Donkey" this morning."
"Ah? Then hurry up... go to sleep, I want to... sleep to death..."
Seeing Liu Yifei's sleepy look, she fell asleep before she finished speaking. Lin Nan couldn't help laughing, raised his hand and stroked her smooth face... Turn off the lights, hold her in his arms, and go to sleep!
The next morning, the sun just came out. The film and television entertainment news that had been fermenting for an afternoon or even a night finally broke out on the entire network.
"Yesterday morning, the famous director Wang Jiawei made a slip of the tongue at the press conference of "The Ferryman", claiming that the film was his attempt to direct a comedy film;
But he corrected himself in time a moment later, saying that the film was the comeback work of his own company, that is:
The Zedong Film Company has been established for 25 years. 25 years ago, it filmed the comedy "East is West", and 25 years later, it returned to the comedy "The Ferryman", which is just back to the starting point!"
"Director Wang Jiawei strongly supports actress Yang Ying, praising her acting skills for the role and her professionalism better than Liu Dehua. He also said frankly that after "The Ferryman", Yang Ying will be a truly excellent actress!"
"The actor Liang Chaowei used "digging potatoes" to describe Yang Ying's acting: She surprised me. It's like you go to the field to dig a potato. You keep digging and digging, and you end up digging a bunch of potatoes. Then you keep digging and digging, and you dig out a watermelon... I think she still has a lot of possibilities and creativity on the road of being an actor, and she is also very energetic on the set. "
"The official account of East China Normal University issued a solemn statement, refuting the unreasonable behavior of director Feng Xiaogang and the crew of "I Am Not Madame Bovary"... wantonly manipulate public opinion, slander, smear... causing bad influence..."
"Yesterday afternoon, Director Lin Nan was at the promotional conference of "Operation Mekong" in Shanghai, and sternly scolded Director Feng Xiaogang for being evasive...
He used a fraudulent method to build a plank road in secret... He knew clearly about the safety risks of large-scale gatherings and the need to report to the public security organs in advance, but he still pretended to be confused and incited the emotions of the uninformed masses, and committed cyber violence... in order to promote the movie. His personal purpose...disgraced the film and television industry and filmmakers..."
…
"Director Lin Nan is the only one who dares to 'criticize' Director Feng by name! You must know that Feng Pants has been a well-known little steel cannon in the mainland film and television industry for so many years, haha..."
"Good guy, is this the first time Director Lin has spoken out for justice? Why does it feel like he has been quarreling with Hua Yi so many times? Every time, he still manages to quarrel without even farting!"
"Upstairs, doesn't this mean there's something wrong with Director Feng? He feels guilty and doesn't even dare to refute..."
"You are so courageous! After all, it is also a 211 key normal university directly under the management of the Ministry of Education. How dare you slander... Okay, it didn't take half a day to get slapped in the face?!"
"By the way, are you sure Yang Ying's acting skills are good? How much money did this great director and actor receive to say such unconscionable things?"
"Shit, that's my own movie, of course I have to say good things about it."
"A group of anti-fans, the baby already has acting skills..."
… While Lin Nan and Liu Yifei were working hard to attend the rather shabby premiere of "Donkey Gets Water", Director Feng was yelling at Hua Yi.
For ordinary netizens, the statements made by the official accounts of National Normal University and Ping An Wuhan have little influence at all and cannot create much waves.
But Lin Nan was different. He made such a statement and ridiculed him in front of nearly a thousand people and hundreds of media. The entire industry and even the entire network knew it clearly!
Yesterday during the day, almost everyone on the Internet was on his side, but just one night later, he, Liu Zhenyun, and Fang Fang turned into rats on the street, with everyone shouting to beat them up, and everyone shouting curses...
"How many times has this happened? He, Lin Nan, is getting more and more aggressive now! Let's not talk about the past, let's talk about this incident and the conflict between us and the light last year. When did it have anything to do with him?
What is he? Why is he gibbering? What kind of big-tailed wolf is he pretending to be? He has won a few bad awards, so what if he is capital? Do you really think he is the only one in the film industry? Son of a bitch……"
Looking at the furious Feng Xiaogang, Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei were completely speechless.
After so many years, Lin Nan has indeed never followed the unspoken rules of the industry, and has become more and more outrageous! He doesn't "respect the elders", doesn't "cooperate", and likes dogs to play with mice when nothing happens...
However, just as Feng Xiaogang scolded, Lin Nan has awards, charisma and influence, and even more capital. The most important thing is that he is too young. This is the scariest part!
This resulted in the fact that no one in the industry dared to provoke him, and he was the only one who provoked others with his unobtrusive and nosy manner.
"This matter needs to be cooled down. Stop promoting the movie during the period before the premiere. After all, everyone has already known it. In addition, you should also keep a low profile during this period. Don't show your face and don't do anything." Argue with those people online, don’t scold netizens, don’t get caught again..."
Wang Zhongjun did not answer Feng Xiaogang's words or comfort him. Instead, he directly arranged the following matters to cool down and end it!
When Feng Xiaogang heard these words, his pale and jagged face instantly became more ferocious. Because the meaning behind Wang Zhongjun's words was to give in once again.
Since he won the Golden Shell Award last month, he never dreamed that in less than a month, he would knock out his teeth "again" and swallow them by himself. This is really ironic.
"Sooner or later, I'm waiting to see how he dies; longevity has never been said in the industry, so I'm waiting for that day!" Feng Xiaogang gritted his teeth and cursed angrily.
He has been in the film and television industry for decades, and apart from being cowardly when he first fawned over Wang Shuo and the others, he has never felt aggrieved in many years. But how much trouble has Lin Nan suffered in the past few years? This tone made him panic!
Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei looked at Feng Xiaogang like an idiot. If it were anyone else, it might be easier to retaliate. But Lin Nan? A gold shell is really not enough, even if he has a day when the tiger falls in peace. He is too young.
"There is no doubt that "Donkey Gets Water" is a masterpiece among low-budget comedy films!" At the premiere, when the microphone was handed to Lin Nan's hand, he started to praise it very nakedly.
Lin Nan had promised Yan Fei before that he would come to support this movie that was not very influential but was indeed of high quality; now, he would naturally not be stingy with praise.
Sure enough, as soon as he finished speaking, the audience burst into applause. The media reporters behind the cameras were even more excited. Because the movies that Lin Nan publicly says are "good" are never false!
Not long after, the premiere entered the free social time, and Yan Fei also joined Lin Nan and Liu Yifei.
"Director Lin, how far do you think this movie can go at the box office?"
Hearing this, not to mention Lin Nan, even Liu Yifei laughed. The production cost of the movie is only 15 million, how much box office do you want?
"Let's work hard to reach the 200 million box office first. It's impossible for theaters to increase the number of films just because I think it is a good movie. After all, the lineup still has too little market appeal, and they are all new faces."
Lin Nan said with a smile, rather tactfully. Yan Fei was an understanding person, so he immediately stopped asking any more questions, "Okay, let's use 200 million as a barrier, so let's face it first."
Lin Nan and Liu Yifei did not stay at the premiere for long, and left quietly soon after.
When they just got home and were thinking about what to eat for lunch, Tom called at an inopportune time.
"Are you telling me about the election again? I remember the results should be out in the next half month, right?"
"Lin, have you been so busy lately that you're confused? It's already the end of the month, and what I want to tell you is definitely about Pacific Rim 2.
According to the schedule I've agreed with Warner and Lionsgate, the entire project team will charter a plane to China on the morning of the 28th, which means they'll arrive at noon on the 30th.
You have to make arrangements for the airport pick-up, and I won't go with you this time. I'll find time to visit you after the official start of filming."
When Tom was halfway through his speech, Lin Nan had already reacted. He had indeed forgotten about this matter during this period of time:
"Okay, I'll go to the airport with the domestic producers. By the way, there are hundreds of people, how many flights are there?"
"Three flights, you may have to pick them up for several hours."
Yes, it's a big project. After all, it's not just the 150 people who went to Hollywood before who are coming back, this time there are also Warner and Lionsgate filming teams coming with them.
In the afternoon, Liu Yifei was pleasantly surprised to report the latest news to Lin Nan: Hongxingwu received a notice that "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms" had passed the internal review, and the public notice document would be released tomorrow.
Coincidentally, Xie Nan also called in the evening: "Wolf Warrior 2" will finish shooting in China the day after tomorrow morning, which also means that the film, which took 5 months to shoot, will finally be completely finished.
…
Changshengtian Pictures.
"Director Lin Nan is really amazing! Even though he slapped Feng Xiaogang in the face, he didn't respond even a word." Song Ge flipped through his phone and said with interest.
"This is strength and confidence. Even Huayi and Feng Xiaogang have to bow their heads." Wu Ershan said enviously, and then looked at Song Ge: "Director Song, are you ready for the media press conference on the morning of the 30th?"
"Yes, it was just prepared this morning. Director Wu, our script can be submitted for review." When it comes to business, Song Ge's momentum suddenly changed, and he was as gloomy as a laughing wolf.
"Okay, I'll send it over this afternoon."
Wu Ershan's voice was trembling, he was excited.
International big directors are too far away from him, he dare not hope; but to be a capital, especially to be a big director and big capital in the domestic film and television industry... He is still full of energy.
