Chapter 235 Another Low-Cost Film
Half a day.
Word spread throughout the circle.
Zhu Yawen got the leading role in a movie from Lin Nan.
"Yawen, congratulations."
The first time she returned to the company, Zhu Yawen was called over by Wang Jinghua.
In the past two years, the latter has clearly felt that pure brokerage companies have been unable to keep up with the development of the industry.
In the past, she could talk to the producers on an equal footing with the big-name actors and entertainers at her disposal.
But now, the trend that resources are king is gradually becoming clear.
She regretted a little, maybe she really shouldn't have left Huayi in the first place.
"Sister Hua was joking, it's nothing."
Zhu Yawen smiled and said modestly.
"Haha, tell me, what movie? Do other people in our company have a chance?"
Wang Jinghua asked softly.
Although she did not help Zhu Yawen much in terms of film resources, she did her best in other aspects.
The latter shook his head with a helpless expression on his face.
"The director is unknown, the script is unknown, and the only actor chosen is me."
After he finished shooting for the magazine, he went to Lin Nan Pictures and came back with only a contract.
Lin Nan didn't reveal a word of other information to him, just one sentence: We will decide by the end of the year.
"Not many people in our company can receive high-quality film projects, especially male protagonists. They are all envious of you."
It was difficult for Zhu Yawen to accept Wang Jinghua’s words. He knows the current situation of the company.
Ever since it broke up with Huayi and Chengtian, the company has felt a little bit rejected and isolated.
In Lin Nan's words, it went down all the way, and in the end it was tepid, with only two or three kittens left.
Zhu Yawen was not worried about herself.
He stands very firmly on the second line, and can rush upward from time to time. The advantage of having a big boss as his best friend is fully demonstrated.
Looking at Zhu Yawen's back leaving the office, Wang Jinghua sighed.
Resources couldn't keep up, and more than half of the company's artists began to have their own little ideas.
If this continues, the team may break up...
——
Lin Nan Pictures is about to release a new movie.
There are many actors who are interested in acting.
Yue Jun received many calls from brokerage companies, and he made it clear that it was still early for casting.
Some people are very clever.
Jiang Yiyan did not dare to go to Lin Nan directly, but chose the right time to insinuate Liu Yifei and complain.
Miss Liu is not stupid. How could she not guess Jiang Yiyan's thoughts when she was suddenly chatting with her from such a distance away.
She mentioned this when she was on the phone with Lin Nan.
"Yanyan said that since "Nanjing", she has always been scolded by the audience and netizens, and now there are no better roles for her..."
Jiang Yiyan is a shrewd person and one of the few among her classmates who knows about the relationship between Liu Yifei and Lin Nan.
Therefore, she has been very diligent in maintaining the "friendship" with Liu Yifei as a classmate over the years.
"She wants your help to get a role with me?"
Lin Nan remembered the sentence describing the entertainment industry: When you are popular, you are surrounded by good people.
Fortunately, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei have been like this over the years, with only smiling faces around them.
Liu Yifei has a good personality, sunny and kind, and cherishes her friends and classmates. She sometimes attends level 02 gatherings to eat and sing together, but she is also sensible.
"I can hear that she means this, but I didn't promise her anything.
Hehe, I won’t cause any trouble..."
"Miss Liu, understand the general situation!
You film well, and next time she wants to bring this up, ask her to come to me directly. "
…………
The "Source Code" prepared by Lin Nan was finally given to Guo Fan.
Now, he has to reconsider the subject of his next movie.
the other side.
China Film Group Corporation has announced the release date of "The Founding of the People's Republic of China", which is scheduled for mid-September.
"The Wind" is also in September, but at the end of the month.
There was a gap of ten days, and Lin Nan only hoped that the impact would not be too great.
After all, the latter paid for it himself.
"The Founding of the People's Republic of China" is a tribute film produced by China Film Group itself. It has a strong cast and is directed by the chairman himself.
Even a fool knows what kind of treatment he will enjoy during the film schedule.
"I used to enjoy preferential treatment myself, but now I feel how others felt at that time, haha..."
Lin Nan muttered with a smile.
Another low-cost and high-profit movie was born in the film industry.
Many people pay attention to it, and even think that it is similar to "Stone".
It's just that compared to "The Stone", this "Nightclub" seems more "shabby".
With a cost of two million and a box office of more than ten million under the attack of many blockbusters, it must be said that it is indeed a dark horse.
Lin Nan even watched this movie specifically.
How should I put it, in terms of acting, Xu Zheng is still good.
"As expected of someone who won the Magnolia Drama Award..."
Lin Nan suddenly thought of something, and his eyes lit up instantly.
He took out his cell phone and flipped through it, there was contact information. It seems that the other party took the initiative to exchange the words.
""Love Is Not Blind" is a low-budget film, so it's totally fine to make another low-cost film at the same time!"
…
…
Ning Hao has been lifeless recently, and Xing Aina can't help but look at him like that.
"How about forget it? Let's find another drama to do.
After all, it's not a problem to be beaten back again and again. "
Ning Hao glanced at Xing Aina and smiled bitterly.
"Let me think about it. I joined the crew before my son was a month old, and this is the result. I am unwilling to accept it."
"You are stubborn. When the script came out, I should have listened to Lin Nan..."
Xing Aina just complained and heard movement in the office area outside.
"Who is here?"
As he spoke, Xing Aina got up and left the office.
"Hey, how come you have time to come here today?"
The person who came was Xu Zheng. He smiled and said, "Come to see Director Ning. Here, I brought a gift."
"I'm inside, half dead."
After Xing Aina finished speaking, she went to deal with the fruits brought by Xu Zheng. It happened to be self-produced and self-sold to entertain the latter.
"Congratulations on the big sale of "Night Club."
Ning Hao raised his eyelids and said.
Xu Zheng and Ning Hao have worked together several times and are also acquaintances.
"Is there really no hope for "No Man's Land"?"
"As long as there is no ban, I will not give up. By the way, why are you here today?"
Xu Zheng sat on the sofa, "Director Lin said he wanted to see me for something, so I came here to take a look."
Xu Zheng was a little nervous at the moment, because he was looking forward to something.
It can't be a bad thing to be found by Lin Nan?
"Then I really have to congratulate you, he won't find actors if he doesn't have something important to do."
Ning Hao was stunned after saying that, "Let's go, I'll go with you, just as a way to relax."
Xing Aina came back with a fruit plate, and saw two people going out.
"Why are you leaving just after you get here? Where are you two going?"
"To Lin Nan..."
...
There are many smart people in this circle, and many of them are unconventional.
Sometimes Lin Nan is worried that one day, he will also have problems...
Then think about Liu Yifei, well, the mood is better. In this circle, you need an anchor point, otherwise it is easy to go far...
Ning Hao followed, which was something Lin Nan didn't expect.
"Director Lin, long time no see."
"Really? It's been almost half a year since the celebration party for "Racing."
"Don't be polite, just say whatever you want to say. After that, help me with the matter of "No Man's Land."
Ning Hao urged from the side.
"Director Lin, why did you call me here today?" Xu Zheng asked.
"Congratulations first, "Night Club" has a good reputation. Also, I have a low-budget comedy. Do you want to consider it?"
As soon as Lin Nan finished speaking, he saw that the other party was obviously excited, but he did not agree immediately, but asked:
"Can I see the script?"
This concentration is very good.
"Of course."
Ning Hao walked over, he was also a little curious about what the script was.
"Let's take a look first."
Lin Nan took out the top file bag from the safe and put it on the table.
Xu Zheng took it in front of him with both hands, took out the script, and began to read it.
Ning Hao leaned over and read it too.
This is a simple script, but the characters are very vivid.
"Director Lin, are you directing it?"
Xu Zheng asked suddenly after reading a few pages.
Before Lin Nan could answer, Ning Hao spoke up, "It definitely can't be him. If he makes a movie of this cost, it would be a drop in quality."
Lin Nan raised his thumb and smiled, "That makes sense."
More than half an hour later, the two finished reading the script.
"It's a very interesting story. I can take it. I wonder which role I should play?" Xu Zheng asked.
"What do you think?"
"Li Chenggong?!"
Lin Nan didn't answer, which was considered as a tacit agreement.
He looked at Ning Hao, "Why don't you come? Anyway, "No Man's Land" will definitely not work for a while."
"Fuck, are you talking like a human? That's my hard work."
Ning Hao cursed angrily.
At this time, Xu Zheng spoke up, "Director Lin, how much is the investment in this movie?"
"Five million, if Ning Hao directs it, it can be added..."
"Forget it, my mind is full of "No Man's Land", I don't have the heart to do this." Ning Hao shook his head and refused.
Xu Zheng suddenly smiled, "Director Lin, what do you think of me?"
When these words came out, Lin Nan and Ning Hao both looked over.
"You?"
"Yes, me. I have been an actor for so many years and have studied directing for a long time. I have confidence and assurance..."
…………
Xu Zheng is quite talkative. He promised that if he was given this opportunity, he would only take 70% of the actor's salary, and not a penny of the director's salary...
This courage is indeed ambitious!
Lin Nan agreed.
He really wanted Ning Hao to do this job before, but the latter refused, so he had to make other plans.
Since Xu Zheng was willing to lower the price in exchange for this opportunity, Lin Nan went with the flow.
After Xu Zheng left, Ning Hao talked about "No Man's Land".
Lin Nan looked at Ning Hao with a look of looking at a fool.
"There is only one way now."
"Tell me quickly, what is it?"
"Cut off the second half of the movie and reshoot a new version..."
Now it was Ning Hao's turn to be stunned. It would be better for him to die!
"What a stupid idea you have. It's absolutely impossible. This is not a reshoot, this is a change in the script. Is this still the same movie?"
What a fool! Lin Nan complained in his heart.
Chapter 2, a little later.
