Chapter 498 Preview, Registration
The film and television industry has been stirred up by this TV series, and many people in the industry are watching.
Lin Nan discovered that Guangguang is actually one of the investors, which is interesting.
"Huanrui is the main controller, Guangguang participates in the investment, and there are also CCTV's International Television Corporation and the game copyright holder. We jointly produce it."
Wang Changtian is in a good mood. The box office of "The Chef, the Actor, the Scoundrel" has exceeded 100 million, and it has great potential.
Another fairy-tale drama has been invested here, and the business department is unanimously optimistic about the ratings in the future, as long as the casting and production are not problematic.
"Then I have to congratulate Mr. Wang."
"This time the production team is from Hong Kong Island, so there will be many actors there, and even from the two sides of the Taiwan Strait. If you have any ideas, I can help you get people."
Wang Changtian said casually, he really has the qualifications.
"I really don't have any ideas, just those few artists, and they all have their own arrangements later." Lin Nan smiled and declined.
Hearing Lin Nan's words, Wang Changtian didn't continue this topic. He changed the subject and talked about something else.
"Huanrui wants to promote its own artist as the male lead, and wants to find a female lead with sufficient status and popularity to lead this drama."
"Looking at the female lead of previous fairy tale dramas, Yifei, they can only think about it; they don't like Tangren's, and don't want to give it to Cai Yinong; Tang Yan, it's not good enough; finally..."
"Finally, it was decided that Yang Mi, who had just established a studio, would be chosen?"
"Yes, she is the most suitable, the leader of the four little beauties, she has popularity and status, and "Love in Seattle" has just been released."
"Huanrui's vision for selecting people is still very accurate."
Lin Nan sighed, and asked again: "Has it been decided?"
"It's decided. People who have opened their own studios are different. Zeng Jia asked for a high price, but it's worth it."
Sure enough, Lin Nan guessed that Zeng Jia would ask for a high price. Yang Mi is currently a very valuable "commodity"!
Until hanging up the phone, Wang Changtian also told him that if he wanted to force someone in, he could tell him, but as soon as possible.
Lin Nan thanked him again and said that he had no such idea.
But he was still quite emotional that Yang Mi had gone back on her ways.
This kind of drama did not help her in any way except increasing her popularity and making money. It could be said that it was consuming her foundation.
Huanrui officially announced that "Gu Jian Qi Tan" had started casting, but anyone with a discerning eye knew that at most some supporting roles would be released.
Despite this, actors in the circle still flocked to it.
Because everyone knows that even the supporting roles in the fairy-tale dramas adapted from games have their own characteristics, almost like a group portrait, which is not bad!
...
Lin Nan felt that he should consider the next drama.
However, the company's several films are still the top priority and cannot be sloppy.
Lu Yang led the main creative team to almost all the first- and second-tier cities in the country during this period, and the results were very good.
Especially in the short film released, the shot of Wang Baoqiang looking like a madman: "Today we will decide who is better and who is worse, and decide life and death", which is particularly eye-catching.
This shot made a large number of netizens and audiences stop and say that they would go to the cinema to watch the peak showdown between Wang Baoqiang and Zhao Wenzhuo.
One by one, the undecided movies have begun to set release dates.
The imported science fiction blockbuster "Iron Man 3" is scheduled to be released on Labor Day, and the audience is very much looking forward to the participation and performance of mainland actors.
Chen Kexin's "Chinese Partners" is also scheduled in mid-May, making this schedule even more competitive.
"Huayi's "Loyal and Brave Generals of the Yang Family" is a complete failure. In a week, the box office has just climbed to the 30 million threshold.
Now the daily box office has dropped to 2 million. If things go wrong, the 70 million, which is a fraction of the 170 million cost, will never come back!"
Lin Nan listened to Yue Jun's ridicule and just smiled without answering.
On his desk, the new movie script that the company is going to make after "A Man's Martial Arts", "Ip Man 3" is spread out.
"Director Lin, is this script going to be made public now?"
Lin Nan shook her head, "Wait at least half a month after "One Man's Martial Arts" is released."
At that time, it will just be possible to add fuel to the "One Man's Martial Arts" that is currently being released.
"Director Jiang asked me a question today."
Lin Nan glanced at Yue Jun, "What question?"
"Shanhai Media, will you sign anyone at this stage?" Yue Jun said meaningfully.
"Her old acquaintances? Except for Zhang Jin, the others have been washed away by the waves and have no chance..."
Yue Jun and Lin Nan have worked together for 7 years, and he understands what the latter means, "I know."
Such a question should be asked directly by Jiang Xingrou, but she asked Yue Jun instead.
This shows that she has a certain guess about Lin Nan's attitude.
Anyway, Lin Nan thinks that Yu Bo has no chance. He finally showed up in "The Loyal and Brave Generals of the Yang Family", but the result is still such a box office flop, and it will be difficult for him to make a breakthrough in the future.
…………
The Hong Kong Film Awards were presented.
Although Zhou Xun did not attend the event, the mainland film industry still felt sorry for her and felt that it was unfair.
Five films were nominated for the Best Actress Award, of which Zhou Xun took up two spots, "The Listener" and "The Great Magician".
Which of these two films is not better than "Love in a Puff"? Miriam Yeung actually won the Best Actress award.
It can only be said that it was a Hong Kong film festival after all, and Zhou Xun was used as a stepping stone.
"It really disgusts me. I actually lost to an actor who started out as a singer and whose main job is still a singer?"
On the phone, Zhou Xun's temper was not hidden at all and he was cursing.
"Others are Hong Kong people with good roots, and you are from the mainland. Please understand. Haha..."
Lin Nan couldn't hold back and laughed out loud: "You'd better come back quickly. If you come back one day early, "Red Sorghum" can start shooting one day early."
"Just wait, it's the middle of the year. Do you think that the title of goodwill ambassador of the United Nations is free, and it's very free? I have to fly to many places in the past two months..."
Zhou Xun was talking with great enthusiasm. The first goodwill ambassador in the country, amazing?
…………
Word finally spread outside.
Huanrui rejected Tang Dynasty's Liu Shishi, rejected Huayi's Yang Ying, turned down a large number of actresses in the industry, and finally signed a contract with Jiaxing as the female lead.
"After five years since starring in "Fairy Sword III" in 2008, Yang Mi will once again star in the fairy tale drama of the same name adapted from a stand-alone game, "The Ancient Sword and Legend of Legends"!"
"Currently, the TV series "Gu Jian Qi Tan" is currently casting, and only the male and female leads have been confirmed. The male lead will be Huanrui actor Li Yifeng..."
The media quickly reported it, and Yang Mi immediately issued a statement admitting:
"This is Jiaxing's first drama after its establishment. It will definitely not disappoint my fans and viewers..."
As soon as they sang and harmonized, the circle and the Internet became lively.
"If you don't act in movies anymore, why are you taking up TV dramas?"
"After leaving Shanhai Media, you are going back to acting in fairy tale dramas? You are going backwards and have no pursuit."
"Not to mention Liu Shishi, even Yang Ying is more suitable than her..."
"Hu Ge has already said that he will not take on any more fairy tale dramas in the future, as that will limit his acting skills or even lead to deterioration. Others have already acted in dramas!"
…
Ever since Huanrui announced Yang Mi as the heroine, the Internet has been buzzing.
All kinds of negative information, suppression and harassment against Yang Mi have come out again after a long time. I don’t know which company is taking action, or multiple companies together?
"Lin, we have to do a few screenings before July."
Lin Nan was still browsing Weibo at home when Leonardo called, in person, which is really rare!
But it’s understandable, after all, it’s about Oscar, and DiCaprio always seems to be possessed by the devil.
If his current supermodel girlfriend stopped him, he would probably be broken up on the spot, and he wouldn't have to wait until he turns 25.
"So early? This year."
"Yes, the academy has announced this year's registration process. Early July is the final registration deadline. According to the rules, we must complete at least a few movie screenings before then."
At this time, Liu Yifei was wearing pink printed home clothes and walked up to Lin Nan holding a fat orange cat.
"Who?"
"Crystal?"
Without Lin Nan answering, Xiao Lizi asked first.
"Leon?"
Liu Yifei said in surprise. In her impression, Leonardo rarely called Lin Nan directly.
"It's about Oscar." Lin Nan looked at Miss Liu and said.
Then, he said to the mobile phone:
"At the end of this month, I will accompany Sissi to Hollywood, where she will participate in the dubbing of the Disney animated film "Frozen".
When the time comes, let's discuss the screening of "The Invisible Guest" and sign up later. "
Hearing Lin Nan's reply, the other end of the phone was obviously relieved, "Okay, Lin. I'll wait for you in Hollywood."
After getting down to business, Leonardo hung up the phone, really not wasting any time.
"You want to sign up and compete for the Olympics?"
Liu Yifei stood on the side and read something, feeling a bit dreamy.
"Yes, you have to try. If it doesn't work once, try twice. Can't you have more variety in the trophies in your collection?"
Lin Nan held Liu Yifei's waist and said affectionately.
"Yeah, I believe you can succeed. I'm waiting for your little golden man."
Miss Liu was smiling, but she was not polite. She then poured chicken soup into Lin Nan's mouth.
"Haha, so perfunctory."
"Then what do you want?"
Liu Yifei looked at Lin Nan provocatively, as if a soldier was coming to stop him.
Lin Nan glanced at the person in front of him, "Hey hey hey, you know."
I saw Liu Yifei pretending to be ignorant and shaking her head delicately:
"I'm sorry, I really don't understand. I have to go back, my mother's sister is here."
After speaking, Liu Yifei hugged her cat and walked away without looking back. When she walked to the door, she turned around and raised an eyebrow at Lin Nan.
"Mom's sister?"
Lin Nan was confused. Why didn't he know that Liu Xiaoli had relatives there?
Just as he was about to get up and follow him to take a look, Lin Nan reacted instantly.
Wherever he is a relative of Liu’s mother, he is a relative of Liu Yifei!
Lin Nan sighed and wanted to laugh but couldn't. He actually didn't react immediately to Liu Yifei's words.
