Chapter 441 1 Billion, Guo Fan's Movie

The Listener, produced by Meiya, was previously scheduled to be released in early August for a reason.

This spy war film, which has an investment of over 100 million yuan, has a very strong creative team.

Its production team, director, and screenwriter are all from Infernal Affairs.

Even the cast consists of several movie kings and queens such as Liang Chaowei and Zhou Xun.

It stands to reason that with such a strong configuration, there is indeed reason not to fear any opponent. However, Lin Nan was encountered.

The first domestic blockbuster that competes head-on with Bad Genius appeared, and the media paid great attention to it, but the result was a bit regrettable.

"Affected by Bad Genius, The Whisperer, directed by Mai Zhaohui and starring Liang Chaowei and Zhou Xun, did not perform well on the first day, far below expectations, closing at 16.5 million."

"Bad Genius ended its second week of release, closing at 442 million this week, with a total box office of 963 million!"

"The domestic film box office record has been refreshed again. Director Lin Nan broke his own record..."

"According to the gambling agreement between Director Lin Nan and the theater chain, the revenue sharing ratio has been changed to 44.5%, and the box office is only 237 million away from 46%."

"The first domestic 1 billion box office movie is about to be born."

"The first 1 billion box office director, the first 1 billion box office heroine, the first 1 billion box office... are about to be born!"

...

Ah, beast!

All the film companies in the industry are now cursing Bad Genius and Lin Nan, and they are really shocked.

The 901 million box office record of The Thieves was refreshed again by Lin Nan himself.

And the new record is still unknown. But it is certain that it will definitely break 1 billion!

All the main actors of "Bad Genius" are eagerly waiting.

Just wait one more day, and everyone will have an extra title.

Net worth, film remuneration, endorsements, announcements...

Career and commercial value will take a big step forward!

The first 1 billion movie in Chinese films must be written into film history!

All young actors born in the 1980s and 1985s are envious.

It turns out that "Bad Genius" was the biggest cake in the circle last year. Unfortunately, outsiders can't get involved.

"If I had known earlier, I would have found Lin Nan last year and put you in. If you can't play the heroine, you can play a supporting role."

Lu Zheng said with envy.

Jing Tian's eyes moved away from the web page, looked at Lu Zheng, and smiled cleanly:

"Uncle Lu, how can there be so many good things. "Pacific Rim" at the beginning of the year has helped me a lot. Let's talk about it later when there is a chance..."

"Yes, let's talk about it later. Director Lin will definitely have commercial films." Lu Zheng nodded.

…………

"Jia Jia, do you think I made the wrong choice?"

Yang Mi looked at Zeng Jia with a confused look.

How to answer this question?

The supporting actress of a billion-box office movie seems to be a great resource.

At least, "Love in Seattle" will definitely not have a billion-box office, nor will it enter the film history and become a milestone.

"It's too late to say this now..."

……

Unlike many people in the circle who were amazed and envious, the atmosphere at Tangren was very wrong.

"First appearance on the big screen, 1 billion box office... This starting point can make that Reba go very far."

"Yifei, this is going to be the first 1 billion box office heroine!"

Hu Ge was inspired, and Liu Shishi and Nazha on the side were a little dazed.

……

Lu Yang is a lazy person, editing the post-production slowly, and some shots require rendering, which is a bit extravagant.

Guo Fan first came to Tiangong Color and said hello.

When Lu Yang heard that Guo Fan was going to make a new play, he also went to Lin Nan Film Studio to join in the fun.

"You have a really good vision." Lin Nan tapped the table with his fingers and said.

"What do you mean, Director Lin?"

Guo Fan and Lu Yang were a little curious.

"I registered this script in Hollywood and almost sold it before, but the price was not agreed upon, so I took it back and made a choice for you."

Lin Nan flipped through the script on the table. Guo Fan had already written and drawn on it and made a lot of notes.

"We all know that science fiction movies are divided into soft science fiction and hard science fiction. For a director, which one is more difficult?" Lin Nan suddenly asked.

Lu Yang shook his head subconsciously. Science fiction movies are not within his scope of involvement.

"I don't think there is an answer. Soft science fiction tests the director's grasp of the role, emotion, and plot. The setting is very important, and the story is king;

Hard science fiction requires the director to have the ability to coordinate and the support of film industrialization. Visual effects are more important, and the plot is simpler."

Guo Fan gave his own answer. He knows his strengths and weaknesses.

He is somewhat lacking in directing ability, after all, he is a latecomer, so he chose soft science fiction, hoping to make up for his disadvantages through practice.

"This represents two different styles of directors, you'd better combine the two."

Lin Nan affirmed Guo Fan's statement and gave suggestions. He himself has shot both and has a deep understanding.

Guo Fan nodded, "So I chose this science fiction love film, "Time Traveler."

"Well, "Butterfly Effect" is the most classic material in soft science fiction. What about casting?"

"Director Lin didn't specify it?" Guo Fan asked with a smile.

"Well, see which supporting role is suitable for Reba, and take her. She can only start as a supporting role at present."

Lin Nan thought for a while and named Reba.

"Only this one?"

"Yes. The remaining actors will have open auditions or invitation-only auditions. It's up to you to decide."

"Okay, then I'll go back and plan. I'll let them take the script for review first..."

…………

It ends on the 8th, and the entire film industry has turned its attention to "The Genius Gunman".

"...Yesterday's box office was 48.4 million. After 15 days of release, "The Genius" has a total box office of 1.0114 billion..."

Boiling.

All major Internet media and official media are reporting this news.

The film industry seems to have made an appointment, with private and state-owned enterprises forwarding and congratulating them one after another.

Whether it is true or false, it cannot be denied that this is indeed a major event in the industry.

The actors and artists are even more crazy, posting on Weibo one by one, and the calls and text messages from Aitlin Nan, Liu Yifei and others have also not stopped.

The Film Bureau even issued a special press release:

"Congratulations to "The Gunslinger" for breaking the 1 billion box office mark;

Congratulations to the domestic film industry for officially entering the era of 1 billion box office! "

Then came the personal honors.

Movie channels took the lead, and official media and online media swarmed in.

"Congratulations to Director Lin Nan for becoming the first director of the 1 billion box office club! Bringing domestic films into the 1 billion box office era."

"Congratulations to Liu Yifei for becoming the first heroine and producer of a domestic film with a box office of 1 billion."

Zhu Yawen, Shu Chang, and Luo Jin were all on the list.

Liang Jiahui, Zhou Xun, and Reba were also named in turn.

…………

Liu Yifei's luxury brands are more proactive than her. They immediately issued announcements to congratulate their spokesperson for becoming a billionaire box office heroine.

"Announcements, announcements, announcements, every time a movie comes out, I have to face these..."

Miss Liu was sitting at the table in her pajamas, puffing her cheeks and complaining.

I was woken up by my assistant's phone call early in the morning. I was furious at the moment, and I didn't even touch the breakfast in front of me.

Lin Nan lowered his head and ate. At this moment, Liu Yifei could only watch from a distance and couldn't talk to her because...it was easy to explode!

The phone buzzed, Lin Nan picked up the phone and walked outside, just in time to meet Liu Xiaoli who had just returned from a walk, still holding a package.

Sitting in the yard, he could vaguely hear the old mother's voice lecturing his daughter, "Eat quickly, how old are you..."

Lin Nan answered the phone.

"Director Lin, congratulations on the movie breaking 1 billion. You are now the only major director in China with a box office of 1 billion, um, and Yifei..."

Andy Lau laughed heartily and talked about the National Day movie "Passengers", hoping that this movie would be like "The Genius".

Lin Nan knew his true purpose of coming.

"Brother Hua, you should know that I can take or take the Golden Horse Award. After all, I have awards from the three major European film festivals."

Liu Dehua on the other side of the phone paused and then said:

"Of course I know that if Director Lin comes to the Golden Horse, he will definitely support him.

But even if Director Lin doesn't care about awards, what about other people around him, such as Yifei and Zhu Yawen?

If a Chinese-language film that has a box office of over 1 billion and sold high-priced copyrights in Europe and the United States does not win awards, will the reputation of the Golden Horse be lost? "

What Liu Dehua said was very naked and realistic.

As has been said in the past two days, if Lin Nan goes to Baihua, he is basically destined to go through the motions to receive the award.

But these words sound nice, but who knows if there will be that 1% accident.

"I'll ask Yifei and I'll reply to Brother Hua tomorrow."

"okay."

…

When he walked into the living room again, he saw that Liu Yifei had finished breakfast.

She was sitting on the sofa in her pajamas, flipping through a hardcover picture album.

"Is it true that you are being plundered, looking for you every year?"

Lin Nan said speechlessly and sat next to Miss Liu.

"You can't say that, it's charity. I don't care what other people do, as long as I do my best."

Liu Yifei raised her head and glanced at Lin Nan, smiling sweetly and sincerely.

This is true, it is Liu Yifei’s style. In 2008, when Lin Nan was still lying down, she donated one million.

In such a large entertainment industry, only a few people donated this amount. If it weren't for Lin Nan and Liu Yifei's donation, a designated group of people would be offended.

“Okay, as long as you’re happy.

By the way, have you figured out where to go? I'm going to reply to Brother Hua. "

Hearing this, Liu Yifei raised her head, her eyes shining, "Golden horse, right?"

"Because it contains high gold content?"

"Um."

Liu Yifei was really rude, smiling and nodding vigorously.

"Okay, then the golden horse."

When she said this, Lin Nan looked into Liu Yifei's eyes, her eyes filled with anticipation and desire for the award.

Lin Nan had no objections to going to the Golden Horse. Firstly, it’s for Liu Yifei, and secondly, it’s to return the favor.

The original chairman of the Venice jury was Li An. It was he who invited Lin Nan to the Venice Film Festival twice and won the Golden Lion.

The Golden Lion Award is considered a favor...

"Well, I just want to give it a try. Maybe I can win the award! My mother even won the Best Supporting Actress in Cannes..."

When this topic came up, Liu Yifei felt a little depressed, but she became happy again in an instant.

After all, it was my own mother who won the award, and she did not cheapen actresses from other movies.

…

Since so many people suggested this movie, I wrote it up.
