Chapter 614 Film and Television Investment

After being "annoyed" by this group of people in the circle for a day, Lin Nan finally lived a peaceful life.

At the same time, the Capital International Film Festival officially opened.

Although "The Invisible Guest" did not participate in the exhibition, there is really a lot of connection between this film festival and Lin Nan.

Because "The Master of Breakup" and "Lost in Thailand" that he participated in the investment are both participating films. Both crews have to walk the red carpet.

Lin Nan thought that since La Peikang asked him to show up, he might as well go for free and watch those unreleased movies in advance.

As for Liu Yifei, she got on the plane at 9:30 in the morning and went to Hengdian to visit the set.

First, she is the producer of "The Sword of Assassins 2: Battle of Shura" and she has to go and see it.

Second, it was purely Shu Chang who was shouting, and Liu Yifei was also going to play there for another day.

"You really don't want to walk the red carpet with us? Or let's go together."

The opening ceremony was in the morning, and Ning Hao wanted to kidnap Lin Nan to go with him.

"Let go, I'm here for a walk today, not for work." Lin Nan opened Ning Hao's hand and scolded with a smile.

These people were all in suits or dresses and high heels, while Lin Nan was in casual clothes, like someone who was out for an outing.

"Look, this is the attitude after the net worth skyrocketed by 3.1 billion. Alas, the friendship has faded, and we are no longer on the same path. I feel bad."

Ning Hao acted in front of many people around him.

The rough man with a face full of flesh pretended to be resentful and heartbroken, which gave people goose bumps.

"Haha, this shot of Director Ning Hao is worth a Best Actor trophy."

In the distance, Jackie Chan walked over with a smile, followed by Ren Zhonglun and Wang Zhonglei.

Lin Nan was a little puzzled, these three were mixed together?

"Director Lin, congratulations on your net worth doubling. Weibo's stock price rose again yesterday." Wang Zhonglei said with a fake smile.

"You three, are you together this time?"

Lin Nan changed the subject and asked curiously.

Jackie Chan pointed to several actors in the distance, including foreign actors, and said, "Take them to the red carpet together."

At this time, Ren Zhonglun also spoke:

"Shanghai Film Group, Huayi and Jackie Chan's Yaolai Films have jointly invested in a costume blockbuster, which will start shooting in the next two days. Today, it happened to be announced at the Capital International Film Festival."

"Well, it's a great script, "The Great Wall", which tells the story of the Western Region Protectorate during the Western Han Dynasty." Jackie Chan explained enthusiastically.

"This time we are going to make a real costume historical masterpiece, and our budget is as high as 400 million!"

Wang Zhonglei added slowly, which invisibly gave many crews around him a warning and demonstrated the strength of the giant company.

"Oh, then I wish this "The Great Wall" a big box office success."

Lin Nan nodded and gave a blessing. With such a high cost, it is not easy to operate, but with Jackie Chan, I think the copyright should be easy to sell.

In less than half an hour, the opening ceremony red carpet officially began, and Lin Nan turned around and walked towards the screening room area.

What's good about the red carpet? It's nothing more than male actors playing supporting roles and female actors competing for beauty.

Many movies that have not yet been released are being screened at the Capital International Film Festival.

There is no need to worry about piracy, because those who can enter have their real names registered, either insiders or from the media, and the higher-ups can't afford to lose this person.

"Blue Bones? Not interested."

"Beauty and the Beast, a French movie, looks pretty good..."

...

After a selection, Lin Nan finally walked into the screening room of "The Breakup Master".

"Let's see how much return I can get from my investment first."

It is said that most of the people who can come in to watch movies are insiders, and sure enough, Lin Nan really met an acquaintance.

There were not many viewers in the screening room of "The Breakup Master", only less than ten, because it was red carpet time after all, and most people were there.

"Director Lin?"

"Director Lin."

Lin Nan was stunned and looked at the only two people sitting in the middle of the fourth row.

"Yan Fei, Shen Teng?"

"Hey, Director Lin still remembers me. Oh, my little heart is so excited. Haha..."

"Director Lin, please sit here."

Faced with the invitation of others, Lin Nan naturally couldn't refuse, so he sat next to Yan Fei.

On the big screen, "The Breakup Master" has not started yet, and it will take another two or three minutes.

Lin Nan simply started chatting, "Why didn't you go to the red carpet?"

Before Yan Fei could speak, Shen Teng answered.

"Unlike you, you are too lazy to go. But what can we say? We are neither movie actors nor invited to the red carpet. If we go there and look at others, we will only envy and be jealous, and it will be annoying. Don't you think so?"

Yan Fei also nodded with a smile, "Why not come and watch the movie."

Lin Nan didn't respond to the two people's words. Just as he was about to change the topic, the big screen lit up and the movie started.

"Oh, I remember that Director Lin's company also invested in this movie."

On the big screen, in the producer column, Lin Nan Pictures and Light Media appeared side by side, following behind.

"Yes, I invested half of it." Lin Nan nodded.

"Old Yan, you see, other people's plays can be adapted into movies, when can we try it?"

Shen Teng's tone was teasing, but also envious.

He and Yan Fei were able to come to the screening room of "The Breakup Master" because they heard that this movie was also adapted from a play.

"What the hell, do you think a movie is a theater performance? If a performance fails, it's just an apology and an extra performance for free, and the ticket is only tens of thousands of yuan.

Filming is a high-risk business. It involves not only production costs, but also publicity and distribution costs. If you lose money, it will be eight figures, not eight figures starting with 1! Will you cover it? Just your performance fees and film remuneration..."

Lin Nan watched "The Breakup Master" while listening to the two people's whispered bickering, which was quite interesting.

Suddenly, an idea popped up in his mind, took root and sprouted in an instant, and grew into a towering tree.

"If your company has the idea of ​​entering the film industry, you can come to me, whether you lack funds or connections. One of my company's businesses is film and television investment. . "

Lin Nan's voice was like a spell, which made the two people quiet instantly, and they all looked at him.

Yan Fei widened his eyes, and Shen Teng didn't dare to interrupt this time. He couldn't get involved in such high-end topics.

"Director Lin, are you kidding? Our company doesn't have such a strong ability to withstand pressure. It's originally a small company and a small theater. "

Yan Fei knew that if he encountered an opportunity, he had to seize it, but he didn't dare to seize it at this moment.

The person in front of him was a big shot in the circle, and he couldn't afford to offend him... The two of them couldn't make the decision.

"You guys watch the movie first, and talk in half an hour."

Lin Nan changed the subject and pointed to the "Breakup Master" that was being shown.

Yan Fei and Shen Teng heard it and began to watch it seriously.

If Lin Nan were asked to evaluate Deng Chao's "Breakup Master", he might use four words: forced funny.

Through specific shapes, body movements, and even disgusting behaviors, the purpose of making people laugh temporarily is achieved.

This is the lowest type of comedy.

After a period of time, the audience will definitely forget the plot, and at most remember some shots and clips.

And a good comedy is a story that comes first, with unique characters, performances and lines, and it is best to have some deep meaning.

Half an hour later, Lin Nan looked at Yan Fei and Shen Teng, who seemed to have been waiting for him early.

"How is this movie?"

"It's okay. "

"Well, it's okay. ”

The answers given by the two made Lin Nan want to laugh, but he did not refute.

"If you make a comedy, can you achieve this effect?"

"You should be able to try."

"I don't know, I'm just an actor."

Lin Nan nodded and asked, "Has your company ever thought about making a movie?"

"Yes, of course. But when I think about the huge investment in making a movie, if I lose a movie, the company may have to break up, so I didn't think about it."

Yan Fei was honest and said everything he should say. No wonder he made the rules and regulations clear when he confronted Shen Teng just now.

"You can take my words back today. If you really want to make a movie but lack funds and connections, you can come to me."

Lin Nan said with a smile, and then stood up.

"Okay, I'll go to other screening rooms to have a look. See you later."

"Director Lin, take care."

"Director Lin, shall I see you off?"

Watching Lin Nan walk out of the screening room door, the two looked at each other.

"Old Yan, do you want to talk to the boss? "Shen Teng suddenly became playful and smiling.

"I, how would I know? I'm just a skit and drama director..."

"Just tell me if you and Lao Peng want to be movie directors? Anyway, I'm eager to be on the big screen, not just a guest appearance... Besides, we can't keep doing this with so many people."

Shen Teng said carelessly.

Yan Fei hesitated, gritted his teeth and said, "Tell the boss when we get back. As for what to do, it depends on him as the boss."

"Okay, let's do it. Haha..."
