Chapter 731: Good Words Cannot Persuade the Damned Ghost
Wang Jinghua is indeed an old veteran in the industry, and she is quite good at doing favors.
At about 11 o'clock in the morning, Shiba Culture released an official announcement on its official website and official Weibo one week in advance.
"Based on the future development needs of the actor and his studio, the company respects Mr. Zhu Yawen's choice and ends the ten-year cooperation relationship with him.
The two parties broke up peacefully and will not renew the contract. They said goodbye to each other and will still be family in the future. I wish his career will flourish and the studio will prosper."
Only two minutes later, Zhu Yawen's personal Weibo and studio Weibo were updated:
"Thank you, Sister Hua, for your help and care over the past ten years, which has allowed me to go from a newcomer in the film academy to where I am now. The future remains the same, and we are still relatives..."
The film and television industry is a hot topic. Wang Jinghua has lost another general?
The former godmother of the entertainment industry, now she only has two or three kittens under her, right?
And it seems that there is only one famous artist left.
That is, Mou Girl - Zhou Dongyu!
The industry estimates that Shiba Culture will not be able to keep these artists for long, especially this Mou Girl.
Because everyone in the circle knows that Wang Jinghua is consuming her heritage and past connections at all costs, paving the way for her son, and resources are seriously tilted!
Unlike the sighs for Wang Jinghua and Shiba Culture, the circle is full of congratulations for Zhu Yawen's departure and running her own studio.
Who let others have the thigh of Director Lin? In terms of connections, she is really not inferior to those old-fashioned agents.
Lin Nan saw that many people in the circle, such as Liu Yifei, Shu Chang, Luo Jin, Zhou Xun, etc., were liking and congratulating Zhu Yawen's Weibo, so he was too lazy to pay attention, because Miss Liu represented herself and Lin Nan.
After parking the car, before walking to the main entrance of the private restaurant, I saw Jiang Wenli from a distance, and her niece Ma Sichun was following her.
"Director Lin, we haven't seen each other for a long time."
Jiang Wenli greeted with a smile and came to meet him.
"Hello, Director Lin." Ma Sichun followed behind with a soft smile.
"It's been a long time since we last met, Sister Wenli."
After Lin Nan responded, he looked at Ma Sichun again and nodded.
The first time he saw her was in 2007, when he had just returned from the Shanghai International Film Festival. Jiang Wenli asked him to help him find out about the admission to the directing department.
At that time, Ma Sichun was only eighteen or nineteen years old, still a little irritable, and her emotions were clearly visible on her face.
In recent years, she has obviously matured a lot, her eyes are quite clear, and her face is also very good.
"Director Lin, let's go in. It's just dinner time, and the dishes can be served." Jiang Wenli invited.
"Well, okay."
The film and television entertainment industry is so realistic. Children with parents are always carefree and have no worries about resources. The only worry is that they can't find the right resources.
For example, Ma Sichun, a real princess of the Northwest Circle, must have different planning for the actor's path and the choice of resources from ordinary actors.
Of course, Jiang Wenli, as an aunt, will not allow her to make do, and will only arrange everything for her properly!
Half an hour later, at the dinner table, business came.
"Director Lin, our director Gu said that the company's movie "Go Away Tumor" is casting. Why don't you take a look at Si Chun?
I have taught her step by step in the past few years, and Director Gu will often give her guidance. She will definitely not be worse than the actors in the Central Academy of Drama."
Putting down her chopsticks, Jiang Wenli smiled. Ma Si Chun also looked at Lin Nan expectantly. She has confidence in herself.
Lin Nan couldn't help laughing in her heart. No matter how fierce the quarrel at home, she is still "our director Gu" outside!
Gu Changwei is indeed an alternative in the circle and a "good guy" among big directors. He has a very close relationship with Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige and others.
When Jiang Wenli asked this question, the result was actually tilted by more than 60%. After all, everyone has a good relationship, and it's just a small role.
But...
"There is a female supporting role with a good role that has not been decided yet, at least I haven't received a call yet.
But Yifei decided the female lead when the script just came out.
I'm really embarrassed to ask Guo Fan again. A director's casting right is very important."
Lin Nan said it in a tactful way-it's time to pull.
"Sichun can go to the audition. It shouldn't be difficult to cut in line?"
Jiang Wenli was still smiling. She was worthy of being a queen of the screen and was also very smart.
Her words were very interesting, and there were a lot of things in them!
Although she said she was willing to audition, it seemed like a polite remark, but it was not the case.
As long as she went to the audition, whether she succeeded or not, it all went through Lin Nan's side.
In addition, Ma Sichun cut in line to audition. Guo Fan was not a fool. There was also the face and favor of Gu Changwei and Jiang Wenli...
How to make a decision, let Guo Fan.
"Okay, then let her go to the company. Guo Fan happened to be auditioning actors today, she can try."
"Thank you so much, Director Lin."
"Thank you, Director Lin, I have confidence that I will not be worse than professional actors."
Until Liu Yifei called, Lin Nan hurriedly finished the meal and said goodbye to Jiang Wenli and the others.
After he took the incubator handed over by the waiter, he put it on the co-pilot seat. Inside was the food ordered for Miss Liu.
"You can just go to the company this afternoon, I'll say hello."
Lin Nan said to Ma Sichun through the car window.
"Well, thank you, Director Lin."
Looking at the Mercedes-Benz going away, Jiang Wenli muttered to her niece:
"Lin Nan Pictures' film resume will be of great help to you. Although he did not agree to make a direct deal in person, but..."
…………
The news in the afternoon has once again made the film and television industry excited.
The lawsuit between the Taiwanese man and Yu came to an end. The latter was ordered to pay compensation of 5 million and publicly apologized.
Hundreds of well-known screenwriters, film and television people in the entire circle liked, forwarded and commented.
Even the headline on the headline read: "Justice is in the hearts of the people." A large number of netizens rushed to tell each other and cheered.
It really corresponds to the saying that was ridiculed on the Internet before: When my mother is in trouble, everyone will like it.
Immediately afterwards, the daily newspapers and CCTV all stood up and directly criticized him by name, causing public opinion to boil to the peak in an instant.
However, Mama did not bow her head and directly expressed her position on Weibo: If she is not satisfied, she will appeal.
Liu Yifei was there eating her meal carefully.
Two assistants were reporting on the demands of some high-end luxury brands, regarding the outfits, accessories, etc. when she and Lin Nan attended the Golden Globe Awards ceremony.
These are the enviable hidden values that belong to Liu Yifei and are not included in the contract, so they can only be "demands" made in a good voice.
Lin Nan was pacing on the lawn, answering Wang Wei's call.
"Since the court has ruled, let's take it off the shelves. Who told Tudou that there were no supplementary clauses in the original contract? It's not too late to make amends.
In the future, if the purchased film and television works are removed from the shelves due to the producer's reasons, you will directly file a claim! "
"Okay, Director Lin."
After Wang Wei responded, he hesitated and said: "Wanda is also one of the defendants and participated in the investment and production of "The Palace"."
Lin Nan was stunned. He didn't know about this before, "Good guy, what a surprise!"
After hanging up Wang Wei's call, Lin Nan dialed another number and returned to the villa ten minutes later.
"You have to work during meal time. Producer Liu is really a busy man."
"It's almost two o'clock in the afternoon now. Your flattery is too perfunctory, Director Lin."
Liu Yifei rolled her eyes at Lin Nan, and then took another small bite of rice.
The way the two female assistants wanted to laugh but were holding back was very funny.
"You should go back first. We will discuss these matters another day."
"Well, okay, Director Lin."
After sending away the two assistants from Hongxingwu, Lin Nan sat next to Liu Yifei.
At this time, it was on the third floor of Lin Nan Pictures.
Guo Fan had a helpless smile on his face and joked, "Director Lin really gave me a difficult problem!"
"What's wrong?"
Lu Yang threw a piece of orange into his mouth and asked. Yue Jun looked at Guo Fan with the same suspicion.
"He said that director Gu Changwei's niece would come to audition for a supporting actress and asked Director Yue to arrange for her to join the cast."
Guo Ban said to Yue Jun, who nodded subconsciously, "Okay."
"It's a troublesome thing! Director Lin didn't give you a word of affirmation?" Lu Yang responded quickly.
"He said to let me decide. If I think the girl's acting skills are okay, I'll keep her. If I don't think she's suitable, I'll tell him directly. He will deal with it."
Just when Guo Fan was dumbfounded, someone knocked on the door and came in, "Director Yue, someone is looking for you. It's Director Gu Changwei's wife, and she's bringing someone with her."
"Oh, here we come."
Yue Jun stood up and walked out without forgetting to look back, "You can continue the audition, don't affect the progress."
"Then the actress who just participated in my third female supporting role in "Xiu Chun Knife 2" has little hope?" Lu Yang joked with a smile.
"Let's take a look at it later."
Guo Fan was relaxed. Anyway, with Lin Nan in front of him, he would handle business matters. He was not a local like Shu Chang, and his acting skills and appearance were obvious to all.
…
Liu Yifei had already put on one of her "simple" down jackets, put on light makeup, a beanie hat and sunglasses and was ready to go out to play.
In the yard, Shu Chang was sitting in the passenger seat of the Ferrari, who was dressed more exquisitely than Miss Liu.
"In less than ten days, you are going to Hollywood, and I am also going to join the team. Taking advantage of these few days of free time, Sissi and I must seize the time to go shopping, driving, and shopping. Director Lin, are you right? ?”
"Ah, yes, yes, it's just that I was almost finished shopping several times before I thought of me."
Lin Nan parked the car next to the Ferrari and said angrily.
"Hehe..." Shu Chang smiled and said nothing, while Liu Yifei pulled down her sunglasses and gave Lin Nan a flirtatious look:
"Director Lin, let's go first. You may be asked to pay the bill. Remember to answer the phone. If you don't pick up the phone, hey hey... you know!"
"Slow down...and drive slower."
Lin Nan warned, but before he could finish speaking, Liu Yifei had already stepped on the accelerator and let the red Ferrari jump out.
"It's time for me to set off. I tried my best not to let you fall into the trap, but what happened to Li An was God's will. La Dong, you'd better not learn from Dong Han!"
…
China Film, Chairman's Office.
"Yesterday afternoon, Li An also said hello to Huayi, Bona, LeTV... and even Shanghai Film.
After leaving China Film Academy this morning, he went to Bona again. He didn't know where he was at the moment. But the people from Shangying have already arrived in Beijing. "
La Peikang frowned, thinking.
Han Sanping's "Peace Wheel" was a huge pit, and the biggest loss on China Film's books was "Peace Wheel".
This has also become a worry for La Peikang during this period. It has only been a year since he took office, and there is such a deficit and mess, which really gives him a headache.
However, he is confident that in his own hands, China Film will never have a "serious accident" like "Tai Ping Wheel" again! It is impossible for a Hong Kong director to get any large investment from China Film!
"Li An said that it was Lin Nan who gave him the idea. Let him come to China to look for film investment. When Lin Nan arrives soon, let's ask his opinion."
La Peikang raised his head and said to his secretary.
The secretary has been with La Peikang for so many years, how could he not understand what the big boss means? He said he was asking Director Lin for his opinion, but in fact he was already tempted, wasn't he?
"What about Shangying and the others? There's no way they can give up..."
Hearing the secretary's words, La Peikang sneered.
After sitting in this position for a year, the more he sits, the more he realizes the "dominance" of Han Sanping back then!
"Shangying? Haha."
…
"Director Li, Shanghai Film Academy can help you solve all the remaining funding problems today. You don't need to talk to other companies anymore..."
The one who came to the capital this time from Shanghai Film Academy was Ren Zhonglun’s secretary.
This kind of position is not a small person, whether within SIPG or in the film and television industry.
Li An just wanted to say thank you to Lin Nan and treat him to a meal.
Because the idea of returning to China to attract investment is absolutely right!
Where is this to attract investment? He only made a few phone calls, but everyone was more anxious than him. They rushed to make appointments to discuss investment conditions, global box office splits, and cooperation details!
But at this moment, Li An couldn't immediately agree to the most sincere Shangying. Although he wanted to agree, China Film Group said that they should consider it.
Li An is not involved in the domestic film industry, but he clearly knows that China Film Group is the big brother. He has a "power of life and death" that no one else has!
…
"You're cheating! I shouldn't have given Li An that idea, just refused to invest. Now it has nothing to do with me, but I still have to get involved."
Lin Nan drove directly into the China Film Academy. He enjoyed special access here. It was approved by Han Sanping at the beginning, and La Peikang did not revoke it after he took office.
Lin Nan got out of the car cursing, and tightened his down jacket tightly. The wind was still quite cold.
I don’t know how Liu Yifei and Shu Chang could stand it and still go shopping? Well, it won’t be warm if you stroll around. Women are indeed more energetic than men when they go shopping!
Someone was waiting for Lin Nan. After seeing his figure, he came directly to greet him, "Director Lin, La Dong is waiting for you."
…
"Lin Nan, what do you think of Li An's "Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk"?"
Good guy, Lin Nan just walked in the door and faced this question? !
"I think the idea of 120 frames of 4K ultra-high-definition footage and a lot of first-person shooting is very extreme and difficult for the public to accept. In addition, his narrative techniques and thinking are too 'breakthrough' from tradition and are not in line with the market!"
"Is that a pioneering 120-frame 4K3D ultra-high-definition movie, an unprecedented first-person feature film, and a brand-new narrative method and thinking?"
La Peikang's eyes were a little wide and bright.
Lin Nan was stunned immediately. Is that what he just said?
"...In addition, Li An, who is full of honors and is famous all over the world, directed it himself. I heard that the screenwriter is also the screenwriter of "Life of Pi"..."
Lin Nan looked at La Peikang talking to himself there, and his heart twitched. What the hell was that smile on La Dong's lips?
"No, I don't think this movie is good. Otherwise, how could I have suggested that he return to China to look for investment if I had already invested in it?"
"But you also said it, so many advantages are combined into one. Once it's done, it will be a movie that will leave a mark in film history. After all, so many firsts will be applied in this movie...and, he is Li An!"
La Peikang's words made Lin Nan a little confused as to what to say.
You are so determined, why are you looking for me?
"Director La, I don't recommend that China Film invest in "Radio Lynn's Midfield War." Listen carefully, I once said this to Director Han. The original words are: I don't recommend that China Film invest in "Taiping." wheel"!"
The office was quiet.
Lin Nan only hoped that La Peikang would listen to his advice, but the fact was that Chairman La Peikang was a bit "obsessed"!
"But this movie hasn't been made yet, right? Just because Li An wants to make a breakthrough, you don't like him? He's different from Wu Yusen. He hasn't made any mistakes yet. Every movie is either a hit or a hit. Award winning!”
understood!
At this moment, Lin Nan could only say "I'm so sorry" for La Peikang.
How do you say that?
Oh, right!
It’s hard to persuade the damn ghost!
"Okay, you're right. From what you say, do you want to join this drama?"
Hearing Lin Nan's words, La Peikang couldn't help but smile.
"I'm not going to hide it from you, I do have intentions. Although Shanghai Film Group Corporation is also involved, it's all a trivial matter. As long as the movie wants to be released in China, he has to cooperate with China Film Group Corporation!"
Damn it, why does Lin Nan think the person sitting in front of him is Han Sanping?
"As for people like Bona and Huayi, aren't they just holding the reins?"
This sentence is even more powerful than Han Sanping!
"One is "The Great Wall" and the other is "Billy Lynn's Long Halftime Walk." In the next two years, China Film will not only have successful international commercial blockbusters, but also films that can compete for Oscars!"
Lin Nan looked at La Peikang, why did he think he was a little fanatical? This is exactly the same as Han Sanping's enthusiasm for "pointing the country" back then!
Smacking his lips, Lin Nan had only four words in his mind: It's over!
Half an hour later, after leaving the chairman's office, Director Lin sighed. He tried his best, and he couldn't be blamed for the rest of the show.
…
In the outside world, after 16 episodes of "The Empress of China", there was a sudden news of suspension of the show.
A TV series that has attracted the attention of the entire film and television industry and the entire Internet, and they are asking for information in various ways. What happened?
Just because those pairs of big and round steamed buns are so pleasing to the eye and so eye-catching.
That yield is simply terrifyingly high!
Only a few people in the industry know the specific reasons, including Lin Nan.
Because Tudou has also received a notice that the online broadcast must be suspended after 16 episodes, waiting for a new edited version.
It was reported!
It's all the fault of "steamed buns"!
… …
