Chapter 877 Follow-Up, Investment Division

After a whole night, the news on the Bazaar Star Charity Dinner not only did not cool down at all, but became even more popular and boiling from the early morning.

The related entertainment information has reached the point of hot discussion on the entire network; the public opinion is very exciting!

"The Bazaar Star Charity Dinner ended successfully last night; the total amount of donations raised during this charity dinner reached more than 50 million yuan."

"Last night, the Golden Rooster Award trophy and certificate for Best Director, which was just awarded five days ago and symbolizes the highest honor in the mainland film industry, was casually auctioned by Director Lin Nan..."

"Director Lin Nan specifically emphasized: This trophy and certificate have never been touched, never entered the house, are not second-hand goods, and do not need this one..."

"Director Lin Nan's Golden Rooster Award trophy and certificate for Best Director, the starting price is 100 yuan;

After several rounds of bidding, it was finally auctioned by Starry Pictures at a high price of 2.6 million yuan, and the latter donated 2.6 million yuan in the name of its artist Jing Tian."

…

"Awesome! Director Lin is blatantly at odds with the Golden Rooster Awards this time. He gave out the awards and then sold them. He insulted them in person!"

"All the trophies and certificates of film awards Director Lin has won are Liu Yifei's collection;

Every time there is an update, she will post all her collections, that is, all the trophies of the family, to "show off";

But this time is an exception. The couple may really think that the Golden Rooster is disgusting? There is not even a photo with the Golden Rooster!"

"Did no one notice? This starting price is amazing!"

"Haha, yes. If it is a starting price of 1 yuan, it can be said that this is a symbolic starting price, which is an interpretation of the priceless honor; but 10 What the hell is 100 yuan? "

"Just as Director Lin Nan said at the Bazaar Star Charity Dinner, when pricing the auction: 100 yuan, isn't that the cost of materials and processing?

The production cost of the Golden Rooster Award trophy and certificate is definitely no more than 100 yuan, and the starting price is the cost price of materials and processing fees. Director Lin is clearly selling waste... auctioning handicrafts!"

"Starting from last night, the Golden Rooster Award will have a factory price of 100 yuan! And how much it can be sold for and how much premium it can get depends on who has it! "

"Tsk tsk, after Director Lin Nan's blessing, it went from 100 yuan to 2.6 million, with a premium of 2.599 million! The starting price is the price of the Golden Rooster, and the premium is due to For Director Lin!"

"If anyone in the film industry auctions the Golden Rooster Award again in the future, the upper limit will be 2.6 million, because Director Lin sold it for 2.6 million.

Unless the person who auctions the Golden Rooster Award for the second time has achieved more than Director Lin Nan, otherwise, it will be completely unconvincing!"

"If that's the case, can we just give 2.6 million to the Golden Rooster Award Committee and give it a prize? There are many stars who can afford to give money, have you given it? !"

"Although they are all chickens, they are not sold in this way, it..."

"You two upstairs are so bold, be careful of the Golden Rooster lawyer's letter warning!"

...

Lin Nan doesn't know how chaotic the Internet is, because he is still sleeping and recuperating.

But the Film Bureau has been the first to bear the brunt of the quarrel, and it is unusually "lively".

The Golden Rooster Committee, the Film Association Council, the Review Committee... The overlap of personnel in these units and departments is very high.

At this moment, Tong Gang was blocked by a group of people, and Zhang Hongsen happened to be "hiding" in Tong Gang's office, so he was blocked as well.

"We are not blind, he is deliberately disgusting us and humiliating the entire Chinese film industry! He vented all his dissatisfaction with the Golden Rooster, the General Administration, and the government here."

"Director Tong, Director Zhang, go and see what people are saying online now. What is the Golden Rooster worth 100 yuan? They also asked where to pay to reserve the Golden Rooster Award next year..."

"Some of our committee members and directors couldn't help but accuse and criticize Lin Nan's auction of the Golden Rooster Award online, but the post was deleted just a few minutes after it was sent out, and he was banned for half a year! They said we were abusing for no reason and that we violated some community convention..."

In the huge office, more than a dozen old cadres, all over 55 years old, seemed to have taken gunpowder, and listed Lin Nan's crimes in indignation.

Although Tong Gang and Zhang Hongsen looked calm, they were disgusted in their hearts: You cursed so harshly, but others are shareholders. If the platform doesn't ban you, who can it ban?

"Forget it, it's charity. He didn't make a penny. The 2.6 million yuan given by Jing Tian was donated to poor counties to buy an ambulance..."

"Yes, you gave out awards, and others used them for charity. Is there any problem with this? I wish every film worker in the mainland had such awareness!"

"Others not only provided the auction items, but also donated the same 2.6 million yuan! Compare them, how much did you donate? How many times have you donated?"

Tong Gang and Zhang Hongsen talked back and forth, playing Tai Chi lightly, and even turned the tables.

More than a dozen "old cadres" were angry, but they didn't know how to fight back.

How much did they donate? Most people didn't donate. But they have advocated others to donate many times, but this can also be regarded as a contribution to charity!

"But why is the starting price 100 yuan, not 1 yuan? Isn't this trampling on the dignity of the Golden Rooster?"

Tong Gang frowned. Do these people not understand what people say or do they just don't want to listen to people?

"Is there any difference between a starting price of 100 yuan and 1 yuan?"

Zhang Hongsen helped Tong Gang out with one sentence, and everyone fell silent. The office was in a dead silence.

Is there a difference? Of course there is a difference!

But no one on the scene can tell the difference. If anyone says it openly, he will be the one who insults the Golden Rooster Award!

A few minutes later, only Tong Gang and Zhang Hongsen were left in the office, and the dozen or so "old cadres" were gone.

They came angrily with the "will" of dozens of people from several departments, but they slipped away in disgrace.

Because they saw that the two direct leaders were openly favoring Lin Nan!

"He was indeed a little too ruthless this time, leaving no room for himself and the Golden Rooster!" Zhang Hongsen sighed.

"What he said was actually right. He doesn't need this award."

Tong Gang muttered with a smile, and then called in the secretary.

"Director Tong?"

"Let the people below notify the relevant units and platforms to suppress the heat. It's really a joke."

"Okay, Director Tong."

"Director Tong, you really take care of him. I hope he won't make trouble during the Huabiao next year."

"Lin Nan knows his limits. He won't."

Tong Gang smiled and shook his head, and then seemed to think of something interesting:

"Last night at the Bazaar Charity Night, when he stood on the stage to auction the Golden Rooster Award trophy and certificate, I think the scene must have been exciting. If you raise a sign, you will offend the Golden Rooster; if you don't raise a sign, you will offend Lin Nan! Haha..."

"Most people chose to befriend Lin Nan without any hesitation!"

…………

Lin Nan got up sleepily at half past 10 noon.

He and Liu Yifei returned home last night, and it was almost 12 o'clock; the two of them took a bath and tossed around for a while, and it was two o'clock in the morning... so they slept too late!

In the garden, Lin Nan sat on the swing without any desire, looking through the missed calls in the morning. It was Yue Jun who called.

Liu Yifei was refreshed, carrying cat food to feed the cat with full blood and smiling.

The call was called back and connected: "What's the matter?"

"Director Lin, Li Bingbing came with his assistant at around 8 o'clock this morning and said that you gave her the leading female role in "Operation Mekong"? "

Lin Nan patted his head. He was obsessed with women and forgot about this matter!

"Well, she was booked at the Bazaar dinner yesterday and agreed to go to the company today. How did you deal with it?"

"The contract has been signed. I think no one in the circle dares to come to our company to cheat for roles, hehe..."

Yue Jun smiled and joked. He called Lin Nan just to confirm and report this matter.

"Now the entire "Operation Mekong" project has been prepared.

Notify all actors, crews, and logistics teams, and then contact Golden Shield to prepare special "props"... Especially Mr. Chen Baoguo, shoot his scenes first."

Lin Nan smiled, and then ordered without hesitation;

After the filming of "Detective Chinatown", we took a break for 5 months, and now we are ready to start work again!

"Okay, Director Lin."

...

In the afternoon, the attention of the film industry seemed to be instantly attracted by Huayi.

After two years since the "money-making" "bad movie" "Private Tailor", Feng Xiaogang finally announced the news of a new film.

"Feng Xiaogang Studio under Huayi issued an announcement that Dongyang Meila Pictures, which is wholly owned by director Feng Xiaogang, has been officially established."

"Jointly produced by Huayi, Dongyang Meila, and Yaolai Pictures, directed by director Feng Xiaogang, and written by Liu Zhenyun, the film "I Am Not Madame Bovary" has been officially approved; from now on, it will start casting for the film and television industry..."

"Director Feng Xiaogang claimed that the new film "I Am Not Madame Bovary" has a profound intention and explores human nature, and will become one of the most outstanding masterpieces of his career."

"The third film in the "囧" series, "Hong Kong囧", will be officially released in theaters across the country after 12 o'clock tonight!"

Lin Nan also has a task, which is to help the premiere of "Charlotte's Troubles" the day after tomorrow.

This movie has no big names, and the only one who can help it quickly build a large number of moviegoers is Lin Nan, the producer and shareholder of Happy Twist.

In his expectation, he hopes that the total box office of the two films "Charlotte's Troubles" and "Hong Kong囧" can reach more than 3.5 billion, and then sweep the National Day file!

As for other movies, I can only say sorry.

And facing the upcoming release of "Charlotte's Troubles" and "Lost in Hong Kong", the industry once again turned its attention to the 29 cinemas of Anle Cinema Line. In one word, miserable!

…

On the morning of the 25th, Liu Yifei accompanied Liu Xiaoli out, and Lin Nan received an invitation from Wang Changtian.

The focus of Guangguang's work this month and next month is on the distribution business, on the two movies "Lost in Hong Kong" and "Charlotte's Troubles", and its ambition is even greater than before.

"You auctioned the Golden Rooster Award, which was so hot, but it was suppressed by 80% to 90% in just one day yesterday. If I'm not mistaken, it should be the top who spoke?!"

"Well, I know."

Lin Nan drank Wang Changtian's tea, which cost more than 10,000 yuan per tael, and smiled indifferently. Weibo called him, and it was indeed the competent department that made the decision.

"You drink it too, it's rare that Director Wang has changed the tea again."

Looking at Wang Baoqiang, Lin Nan raised his cup.

"I'm like a cow chewing a peony. I can't taste the flavor. Director Lin, please."

Wang Baoqiang smiled sincerely, but he even said the words "cow chewing peonies", how could he still be "stupid"? Over the years, he has continued to learn and improve!

"Let's talk about the main business today. I know you are about to start filming "Operation Mekong", so I specially invited you here today."

After Wang Changtian finished speaking, he looked at Wang Baoqiang again. The latter nodded hurriedly and waved to the assistant behind him.

A document bag was handed over, and after opening it, there were three identical film production budgets-"Havoc in Tianzhu".

"So fast?" Lin Nan asked.

"Because this is my first time as a director, so if I hold on tight, my efficiency will be higher." Wang Baoqiang explained with a smile.

At this moment, the office became quiet, and Lin Nan and Wang Changtian were already looking through the budget planning document.

Both of them are experienced filmmakers. Although they can see ten lines at a glance, they will not miss anything at all.

"110 million? Are you sure it's that high?"

Lin Nan was a little surprised, considering that Deng Chao's first movie only cost 40 million!

"It's not like you don't know how the film salary market has increased in the past two years! Do you think that all directors are you? The actors in the industry are eager to participate in your movie with ultra-low pay or zero pay, or are willing to do it themselves Reduced salary to star in your company’s Lu Yang and Guo Fan movies?”

Wang Changtian replied to Lin Nan angrily.

"It's gone up again?"

Lin Nan asked belatedly. It seemed that he still underestimated the development of the industry.

“Well, so far this year, it has gone up twice, and it just went up once last month.

But I don’t blame you, after all, major directors are basically insensitive to the remuneration market, because they are never short of money, let alone you! "

Well, Lin Nan also realized at this time that Li Bingbing probably didn't get the latest salary yesterday, because the budget plan for "Operation Mekong" was made nearly three months ago.

"Okay, let's talk about the division. Let me emphasize again, I will use Shanhai Media to participate in the investment this time, as it is to support new directors."

Lin Nan said seemingly casually, and glanced at Wang Baoqiang, who quickly thanked him.

"What's the difference between Shanhai Media, Lin Nan Pictures, and Tiangong Color? They're all your company, right?"

Wang Changtian said nonchalantly, and then asked Wang Baoqiang: "You are the director, how much are you prepared to invest?"

When talking about this topic, Wang Baoqiang's expression instantly became more serious, very serious: "Director Wang, Director Lin, I can give you 20 million... I won't take the salary of the starring or the director, it has been removed from the budget."

Lin Nan could see that Wang Baoqiang was indeed trying his best.

"Sure. Shanhai Media will offer 40 million. Ray is the main controller, and the remaining 50 million will be left to Director Wang?"

After Lin Nan finished speaking, he looked at Wang Changtian with a smile and picked up the teacup again.

"Of course it's no problem. Come, let's celebrate with tea instead of wine."

Wang Changtian proudly lifted the teapot and poured himself a cup.

In the office, there was another round of talking and laughter.

In fact, the last time I heard Wang Baoqiang talk about the script outline in detail, Lin Nan had no expectations for the quality of the movie.

But for new directors, if it doesn’t work once, you can try it a second time.

Especially Wang Baoqiang's character is completely worth investing in! Moreover, the movie is a comedy movie, and with his comedy audience popularity, it is absolutely impossible to lose money.
