That year Huayu

I hadn't noticed it before, but Magnolia seemed to be having trouble again.

Recognized by the entire network, in the TV series "Hey! Li Xuejian, who contributed a top performance in "Old Man", was not nominated? !

At this moment, Magnolia, which is about to hold an awards ceremony the night before the opening ceremony of the Shanghai International Film Festival, has become the target of public doubts.

Not only are there a lot of scoldings on the Internet, but the industry also feels that Magnolia has gone too far this time, and it is completely messy and insulting.

Many directors, such as Guo Jingyu, Yan Jiangang and others, even publicly expressed their opinions: Teacher Li Xuejian was not nominated, which is really incredible and difficult to understand.

Li Xuejian’s wife also wrote a letter to the organizing committee, asking about the selection criteria for nominations, and couldn’t help but post a long article:

We don’t fight when the old man (Xue Jian) ​​has no works. The old man has works. With such a hard-hitting work that the audience likes, how can we not even give him a nomination? Only acting can give him vitality. Nomination is respect. I know he cares...but he only said four words, which was not flattering or humiliating.

"Tomorrow night is the Magnolia Awards Ceremony. Do you want to go and see it? Brother Xun has nominated a visual actress."

After leaving the airport and heading to the hotel, Liu Yifei's voice interrupted Lin Nan's thoughts.

Zhou Xun was nominated for the Best Actress for "Red Sorghum" and was also the Magnolia Award proposed by Zheng Xiaolong, who is a frequent visitor here.

"Okay, just think of it as just watching the fun. Speaking of which, they are indeed quite arrogant. Teacher Li Xuejian's acting skills are not even qualified to be nominated? This year's Magnolia, tsk tsk, is getting more and more amazing!"

While Lin Nan was complaining, he continued to scroll through the film and television information on his phone.

The awards ceremony is really approaching, and the Internet is full of ridicules for Magnolia;

The latter's reputation and credibility are on the verge of collapse, and this matter has developed into a major "crisis of trust."

"Sissi, when we get back to the hotel to pack up, can we go shopping early in the afternoon?"

Shu Chang hugged Liu Yifei's arm and shook it with a smile, quite playful.

"Yeah, okay." Miss Liu seemed to accept everyone who came, and there was nothing serious to do anyway.

"You two have a good time, I won't go."

"Hey, I didn't want to take you with me."

Liu Yifei raised her eyebrows and gave Lin Nan a nice wink.

…

A TV festival and a film festival brought together 70% to 80% of domestic film crews;

Especially the latter, there are many foreign films participating, and with them, a large number of foreign filmmakers.

Under such circumstances, one can imagine the number of media who came to the Magic City. They were absolutely countless.

Soon after Lin Nan, Liu Yifei, and Shu Chang arrived at the hotel and were photographed by entertainment reporters, the news came out online.

Many insiders in the Magic City also received the news.

"La Dong, Director Lin and his party have arrived in Magic City and just checked into the hotel."

In a conference room of a star hotel, the staff knocked on the door and reported to La Peikang.

And it wasn't just China Film Group's La Peikang who was sitting there chatting and laughing. Looking around, there are also big bosses from several companies such as Zhou Xingchi, Ye Ning, Zhang Qiang, etc.

"Come here. Speaking of which, I haven't seen him for almost four months."

La Peikang looked at Ye Ning, Zhou Xingchi and others and said with a smile. Everyone had smiles on their faces, as if they had been waiting for Lin Nan for a long time.

Among the people, Ye Ning felt a little helpless. He was the only person at the scene besides La Peikang who knew that there was a gap between Lin Nan and China Film.

"Then everyone can get together for tonight's dinner." Zhou Xingchi nodded, speaking not very fast.

"Who is going to invite Director Lin? I am a little eager to see him. This morning, more than an hour ago, Yue Jun from his company was very, haha."

Zhang Qiang smiled and teased without finishing his sentence, his tone was quite teasing.

"I'll go, I don't know if he and Yifei have any plans for the evening."

Ye Ning took the initiative to take over this matter, and everyone present had no objections, including La Peikang.

Because the relationship between Wanda and Lin Nan is indeed the closest among all the owners or companies on site.

And this "destined" blockbuster, coupled with the participation of Lin Nan Pictures, will definitely be even more powerful, and it will definitely be invincible at the box office!

…

The ten o'clock flight arrived in Shanghai just after noon.

Liu Yifei and Shu Chang checked into the hotel, and the first thing they did after putting away their belongings was to order lunch, and help Lin Nan order it too.

Because Director Lin Da was taking a call from Yue Jun, who called according to the time.

"The number you quoted is quite good. I said it was no less than 100 million, but you directly added 20 million!"

"Since they entered the film and television industry, haven't they labeled themselves as 'Big Dogs'? I regret that I quoted 120 million. They should have quoted 150 million!"

Although they didn't agree on the spot this time, they didn't refuse either. In my opinion, with the consistent style of Alibaba, the possibility of final transaction is very high! "

Listening to Yue Jun's sworn conclusion, Lin Nan couldn't think of anything to refute for a while.

Because Alibaba seems to be like this. Things that can be solved with money are never sloppy. In addition, Alibaba Pictures is also affected by the blessing of the parent company, and it is also booming in the Hong Kong stock market. It is a listed company worth nearly 100 billion... They are all arrogant masters from top to bottom!

"Okay, it's up to you. It's probably just for these two days. They can't be lazy. They're too proud." Lin Nan said with certainty.

"Ao? Director Lin, don't tell me, I was also 'arrogant' when we were talking... I have to imitate them, and even talked about big data, haha..."

When Lin Nan hung up Yue Jun's call and walked to the living room of the suite with a smile on his face, the table was already filled with food, and Liu Yifei and Shu Chang were feasting on it.

"Here, come and sit down. I see you are busy, so we won't wait for you."

Miss Liu patted the place next to her and called Lin Nan.

"When you two go out in the afternoon, remember to bring a few more assistants with you. There are a lot of paparazzi in Shanghai during this time."

Lin Nan sat at the dinner table and reminded her gently.

"Yes, we will bring four assistants. When we come back, we will probably carry a lot of bags..."

The three of them chatted and laughed while eating, and ended their lunch after more than half an hour.

Liu Yifei and Shu Chang were both in high spirits. They ran back to their rooms to change clothes, put on light makeup and prepare to go out.

Lin Nan, on the other hand, received the second call today. During the call, his expression sometimes looked flat and smiling, and sometimes showed contempt.

"...Anyway, that's the sentence: There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests. You will know when you come over tonight.

How can I put it this time? Many giants in the industry have indeed been gathered together. After all, it is a series, and it is also a super IP..."

Lin Nan chuckled after listening to Ye Ning's words and asked:

"So among all the companies currently, China Film, Xinghui and Wanda are the clear main parties, and the others are participating investors? Has Shanghai Film been squeezed out again?"

Ye Ning paused after hearing this and smiled:

"Lin Nan Pictures can also be the main controller. As for Shanghai Film? Our director feels that he has only learned 80% of the skills of Director Han, and he is always a little bit less interesting, haha..."

"Okay, I'll be there on time in the evening to see the excitement."

Hearing Lin Nan's consent, Ye Ning didn't think much more, "Okay, see you in the evening."

Looking at the date display of "Thursday, June 11th" on the phone screen, Lin Nan muttered in a low voice:

"I must give face to so many people... It's just to watch the fun, nothing else."

…………

In the afternoon, Liu Yifei and Shu Chang were dressed in casual summer clothes and took their assistants out for a walk, while Lin Nan went to the film exhibition area.

Although the Magic City International Film Festival has only officially opened the day after tomorrow, the film festival's promotional exhibition area was opened a week in advance, and most of the films are already in place.

"The Return of the Great Sage", "Xiu Chun Dao 2 Shura Battlefield", "Get Out!" "Tumor King", "Hong Kong Embarrassing", "Charlotte Trouble"...

All the films of Lin Nan Film Department are all together and connected into one piece. The scene is very spectacular!

There are many media reporters in the huge exhibition area, and filmmakers in the industry, including some foreign media and filmmakers, can also be seen everywhere.

The Magic City International Film Festival has indeed grown a lot in recent years.

"Hey, why are you alone? Where is Yifei?"

In "Slaying the Wolf 2", Lin Nan met Wang Changtian.

"She and Shu Chang went shopping. There won't be any movie screenings here today and tomorrow, right?"

"Yeah, that's right. Are you free tonight? Let's have dinner together?"

Facing Wang Changtian's invitation, Lin Nan smiled and shook his head.

"Why, do you want to accompany Yifei?"

"China Film and Company invited me in advance."

Hearing this, Wang Changtian frowned momentarily. Experience taught him that the light missed something!

"Please invite me again tomorrow, the market value of Raytheon has increased a lot recently!"

Lin Nan changed the topic, and Lao Wang suddenly smiled brightly again: "It's true that it has risen a lot. The market is about to break 6,000 points. Let's go and take a look..."

…………

At seven o'clock in the evening, Liu Yifei called Lin Nan. After confirming that he would not be back until later, she didn't ask any more questions because it must be business.

At this time, Lin Nan and his assistant had already arrived at the scheduled location, which was the hotel where China Film, Xinghui and others were staying.

"Director Lin, please come this way."

The people from China Film took Lin Nan directly to the 28th floor. Including this floor, the upper and lower floors were all conference halls used for business offices.

"I should be the latest to arrive, right?"

"Director Lin was joking, everyone just arrived not long ago."

As expected of a clerk from China Film Group, he speaks well.

As the door of the conference hall opened, Lin Nan was invited in. He saw a huge long table and scattered listening seats around it. Of course, everyone here also looked over.

Around the long table, most of them are giants and big names in the industry, and a few are small companies:

La Peikang, Zhou Xingchi, Ye Ning, Zhang Qiang, Wang Zhonglei... from several theater companies, Hengdian Pictures, Xiangshan Film and Television Base...

The surrounding seats were also "famous" figures in the circle: Xu Ke, Wu Yifan...

"Lin Nan."

"Director Lin, please take a seat quickly."

"Director Lin, the box office of "Manchester by the Sea" is so strong."

…

Saying hello, greetings, talking and laughing, one after another.

Lin Nan glanced at Zhou Xingchi and then at Wang Zhonglei, feeling contempt in his heart.

Ye Ning's phrase "There are no eternal enemies, only eternal interests" refers to these two people tonight. It's so interesting!
