Chapter 313: The Twelve Chinese Zodiac Signs, Tang Dynasty

"Star" appeared on the Cannes Film Festival's entry list.

This means that Lin Nan has officially embarked on a journey to compete for the Palme d'Or.

"Promotional materials, posters, short films, these are prepared in advance..."

"Copy that, Director Lin."

Cannes is indeed Cannes. The number of films participating this year is expected to exceed 3,000, making competition extremely fierce.

Lin Nan saw the "Golden Broom" award that had just been established two years ago. The organizer announced the list of winners for the second session.

With "If You Are the One 2" and "Earthquake", Feng Xiaogang single-handedly won three awards: Most Disappointing Director, Film, and Advertising Placement, which became a hot topic in the industry.

Netizens overwhelmingly supported Feng Xiaogang.

It was impossible to accept the award, but Feng Xiaogang was still happy to do it with a few words of ridicule on Weibo.

"Don't call the judges idiots. This is uncivilized. They should be smart, and they should be given the Golden Abacus Award."

To be honest, Lin Nan didn't think there was any difference between the two movies, except that there was no need to quibble about the placement of advertisements, but for commercial films, making money is the first priority...

As Feng Xiaogang said, these people probably want to use his reputation to promote this film award. After all, it’s all business…

Lin Nan was thinking at this moment, what would he do if he was targeted by this group of people?

He must be too lazy to pay attention! Unless I really make a bad movie, this will never happen.

…………

"The King's Feast" is on.

Lu Chuan is really a bit shameless.

He vowed to the media that he would choose an amateur to play Yu Ji.

Then I auditioned nationwide for so long, attracting a lot of attention and achieving the purpose of promoting the movie.

As a result, the final candidate is not an amateur! At a glance, you can tell who inserted the unpopular actress.

The consequences of deceiving the public and the media can be imagined. There was a chorus of abuse on the Internet, which felt like going back to the time when "Nanjing" was released.

There are also many people in the industry who are watching the fun and beating up the lost dogs, especially the "Legend of Hongmen Banquet".

Lin Nan and Liu Yifei attended the media conference of Jackie Chan's new movie together.

After ten years, he returned to directing again.

Jackie Chan will write, direct and act himself.

This is also his 101st movie, the action blockbuster "Zodiac".

"Hua Yi is very generous this year! We have approved seven or eight movies in this series, right?"

Ning Hao looked at Lin Nan and asked.

"It's nine movies." Lin Nan said casually.

The stock price keeps rising, Huayi is rich and powerful.

Jackie Chan's "Zodiac" is also exclusively produced by Huayi, and its cost is higher than that of "1942".

An action blockbuster with an investment of 300 million is rare in China.

"Tsk tsk tsk, it's really different now that it's on the market."

In the circle, there are not only the terms "Mou Girl" and "Star Girl", but also "Dragon Girl".

It's just that this time the Dragon Girl can only play the second female lead, and the first female lead is from Huayi.

Jackie Chan led the second female actress over.

"Director Lin, Director Yifei, Director Ning, thank you for coming to support me today."

"It should."

"Brother, you're welcome."

…

The second female lead is Jackie Chan's new apprentice. I heard that she used to be an athlete on the national team.

"This kind of action movie is very suitable for Yifei, like "Super Body", but it's a pity that there are not enough characters."

Jackie Chan said seriously with a smile on his face.

Lin Nan and Liu Yifei both knew that this was a courtesy, but it was also the truth.

"I'm also looking forward to working with my brother again. There will be opportunities in the future."

Miss Liu smiled and replied, looking down and out.

At the end of the day's event, the Internet was full of news about Jackie Chan returning to work as a director.

At the same time, "Thirteen Hairpins" also became a hot topic.

Everyone in the industry is saying that Zhang Yimou and Zhang Weiping have a vicious vision, and signing Bell is a huge profit.

Because news just came back from Hollywood that Bale won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor!

"I have never doubted whether the domestic box office goal of 1 billion can be achieved. Now it seems that this goal is a bit conservative, and at least another 200 million is needed.

"The Thirteen Hairpins" will be the first domestic film to have a box office of over 1 billion, or even 1.2 billion or 1.3 billion..."

Zhang Weiping's speeches are always so positive and arrogant...

…………

Nortel has finally released the rankings.

Zhou Dongyu, who has received much attention, "stepped over the line" and passed the test and was admitted.

Another child actor who participated in "Wulin Gaiden" regretted being written off.

Netizens are joking that Nortel’s performance department now only looks at two things for admissions.

Either you have great connections, or your appearance and temperament are very good. Full of irony.

Cai Yinong met Nazha again, this time with an assistant.

She heard from her assistant that Yue Jun had also been in contact with this girl a few days ago, and now Cai Yinong would not let her go.

"Congratulations on passing the final exam."

"Thank you, Mr. Cai."

"Mr. Yue of Shanhai Media should have also talked to you. What do you think?"

Nazha didn't expect Cai Yinong to ask such a direct question, and she was a little at a loss for a moment.

Judging from the apparent strength, Shanhai Media is backed by Lin Nan Pictures, which is much more powerful than Tang Ren...

From the expression of the girl opposite, Cai Yinong could see that she was a little entangled in her heart, and she was vaguely leaning towards Shanhai Media.

However, Cai Yinong was not in a hurry. She came to rob someone after making sufficient preparations.

"At this time last year, Shanhai Media signed a new artist from the Shanghai Theatre Academy. She is from the same hometown as you."

Naza nodded blankly when she heard this, not quite understanding what it meant.

"If you go there, your looks and resources will be in direct competition. The one that suits you will definitely suit her."

This time, Naza understood. In the same company, this kind of thing is inevitable...

"We all know that in this circle, you have to become famous as early as possible.

And Shanhai Media has a contract for newcomers, which is that they will not be given resources within two years. They will lay a foundation in school. The girl has not received any roles so far.

Maybe you will yearn for the film resources of Lin Nan Films, but how many actors can become famous through movies?

On the contrary, TV dramas are easier to accumulate audience favor and make you more popular. You should know the achievements of Tangren in TV dramas..."

Naza listened to Cai Yinong's words and felt that they made sense. For a while, she was in a dilemma. Can she survive in a big company?

"But what if I go to Tangren?" she asked.

A sly look flashed in Cai Yinong's eyes. This is what she was waiting for.

"We don't have the idea of ​​asking newcomers to wait for one or two years. The "Legend of Sword and Fairy" series has made many actors popular, including Hu Ge, Liu Yifei, Yang Mi, Tang Yan, Liu Shishi...

Now the company has also approved another TV series adapted from a game. As long as you sign in to the company, the remaining one of the three female roles can be given to you.

Your partners will be Hu Ge, Tang Yan, and Liu Shishi. After this drama comes out, you will definitely be popular..."

Cai Yinong's words, like a spell, lingered in Nazha's heart.

"I can't give you an answer now. I want to discuss it with my family..."

"Okay, no problem."

…………

Lin Nan sent Liu Yifei and her assistant to the airport.

The Paris Fall/Winter Women's Fashion Show is about to begin, and Liu Yifei needs to go.

The media reported two days ago that Zhang Ziyi, Fan Bingbing, Li Bingbing and others have arrived in Paris in advance.

"Take care of yourself."

"Well, I know, I'm not a weak woman. Besides, I'll only be there for a few days."

Liu Yifei said, blinking at Lin Nan and flexing her biceps.

After instructing several assistants again, Lin Nan was relieved and watched them walk into the terminal hall.

After a long time, Lin Nan drove back to the company.

…………

The special effects of "Legend of the White Snake" are completed.

It has been a little over 3 months since the end of November last year, just a little slower than "Painted Wall".

Lin Nan has never shown up on this project from beginning to end.

Now that the special effects are done, it is inevitable to meet Yang Zi and Huang Shengyi.

The other party has made so many appointments, and it is not good for reputation if they keep refusing.

"Director Lin, you are at Tiangong Color."

"Have you accepted it?"

"It is being accepted."

When Lin Nan arrived at the Tiangong Color floor, he saw Yang Zi and Huang Shengyi watching the special effects shots.

He has a short haircut and wears sunglasses indoors, which is really cool.

"Director Lin, I finally meet you."

"Director Lin."

As soon as he came up, he grabbed Lin Nan's hand and shook it, which was a bit too familiar.

"How is the finished product? Are you satisfied?"

Lin Nan silently pulled his hand back.

"Good, very good."

Huang Shengyi simply greeted him and stood beside Yang Zi, just like a vassal.

The employees were packaging the special effects shots, and Yang Zi kept talking here.

Lin Nan understood that this guy had opened a film company and was a little arrogant.

"Director Lin, next time you start a new movie, you must tell me that Juli Films really hopes to invest together, no matter how much money is fine..."

Lin Nan looked at Yang Zi as if he was a fool, and really wanted to say: You can talk to Han Sanping and others first.

I really don't know if this guy is really stupid or pretending. He even said that if he chooses a role in the future, he can consider Huang Shengyi.

Lin Nan thought to himself, it's just a special effects collaboration, and he's still taking advantage of it?

Two hours later, Yang Zi and his group were finally sent away.

"Haha, I'm dying of laughter. Director Lin, you don't know what he said when he first came here, it was very cunning."

"What did he say?" Lin Nan was a little curious.

"He said that with such good special effects, it's okay to advertise that it cost 100 million yuan! Isn't the meaning very obvious?"

…………

Yue Jun answered a phone call and went out.

Yue Jun met Nazha in the cafe next to Beijing Film Academy.

"The thing you asked about is indeed true..."

When he heard Nazha asking about the terms of the new contract of Shanhai Media, Yue Jun almost guessed the answer.

This industry is like this. Everyone has their own ambitions, and everyone has the right to choose the path they want.

Obviously, the girl in front of him has chosen Tangren.

Yue Jun shook his head and stopped forcing it. He could understand this kind of thing.
