Chapter 846 "Three Lives Three Worlds" - Movie TV Series

"Produced by Lin Nan Pictures and directed by Director Guo Ban, starring Shu Chang, Luo Jin, Ma Chun, Jiao Junyan and others, the inspirational, love, and comedy comic film "Get Out! Squeeze the Tumor King" was officially released this morning For the public release, the overall screening rate is as high as 30.2%.”

"Indeed, as Lin Nan Pictures' announcement said, the release of the movie "Get Out! Tumor King" has not entered the 29 movie theaters of Anle Cinemas in 17 cities."

"Anle Pictures' movie "Monster Hunt" has been in theaters for 21 days, with a total box office revenue of 1.71 billion. The film failed to obtain the extension key and is no longer expected to hit the 2 billion box office mark."

"According to multiple media reports, the number of customers at Anle Cinemas' cinemas today dropped by nearly 20% year-on-year."

"Except for "Broken Wind" and "New Step by Step", there are no other eye-catching new domestic movies in Anle Cinemas."

"According to multiple theaters, "Get Out! Tumor King" is indeed leading the audience's viewing intentions among new films in August..."

…

Hong Kong Island, Anle Pictures.

Led by Jiang Zhiqiang, a group of executives are discussing the box office of "Monster Hunt", that is, how many billion should it be released with in the end?

"There is still 290 million short of 2 billion, but the 'charity screening period' will end in these two days. There is no way to reach 2 billion, and we can't reach 2 billion!

If it really reaches 2 billion, then isn't this just a lice on a bald man's head - is there something obviously wrong? "

"Mr. Jiang, more than 22 movie theaters reported that today's booking rates did not increase but dropped. Even the movies "Broken Wind" were affected."

"Mr. Jiang, the decline in passenger traffic of all movie theaters exceeds the 20% reported online, and the average is about 23%. Almost all of the passenger traffic we have lost has been shared by Wanda's theater chains and movie theaters."

…

Noisy sounds filled the conference room, and Jiang Zhiqiang felt a headache for the first time. He was not so powerless when faced with Lin Nan's public naming and real-name reporting.

Because the previous opponent was Lin Nan alone and a company called Lin Nan Pictures.

Now, Lin Nan Pictures' "unilateral blocking" has exposed Anle to "targeting" from ordinary audiences and movie fan groups. This is a spontaneous behavior of the market.

When the goods on your counter are not complete, especially if you lack the latest and most popular products of the season, you will naturally be disliked by customers and abandoned.

But Anle cannot solve this problem. Unless Lin Nan Pictures "raises its hand", there is no solution. But judging from the attitude of Lin Nan Pictures, this is absolutely impossible!

"Using the last two days, we will once again increase the film schedule of "Monster Hunt" so that more people can see this 'public welfare movie'.

After that, we will support the small and medium-cost movies released this month until the end of the month; by then, movies such as "Terminator: Genisys", "Assassin Nie Yinniang" and "Scorching Sun" will all be released.

As for the box office of "Monster Hunt"? There are still 9 days left, and it is really not appropriate to get more than 2 billion. It is too obvious, so let’s just go to 1.9 billion. "

Jiang Zhiqiang said one by one, looking as steady as a rock.

"It's okay this time. It will be like this every time in the future. It's too..."

"As the film market becomes more prosperous, the number of commercial blockbusters and blockbuster films will only increase; and the larger the base of films produced each year, the lower the influence of a certain company will become. Don't worry."

Jiang Zhiqiang was not only comforting the executives, but also convincing himself.

…………

The morning before yesterday, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei went to Nortel to deliver some wedding invitations and then had a hot pot meal. When they came back, they were told that someone from Alibaba Pictures had contacted the company.

Because of this matter, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei had been having fun at home all day yesterday.

Until today "Get Out!" "Tumor King" was released. They thought about it and found it interesting. Of course, Shu Chang also came to join the team today.

"They don't even think about it. The copyright was sold from Lin Nan Pictures. If you and I play the leading role again, what's the deal?

Then why don't I keep the copyright and make it for my own company, and then the two of us can play the leading role? From a boss to a wage earner? Do I think I earn too much? "

Leaning on the sofa, Lin Nan complained again.

Lin Nan can't guarantee whether he will direct foreign films in the future; but if he does a foreign film, it must at least be directed by a trustworthy director! But the production team of Alibaba Pictures, what the hell is this?

To be honest, Lin Nan had really imagined in his mind that he would star in Alibaba Pictures' "Three Lives Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom", but at the same time, another "idea" came to his mind, and in his opinion, it was inevitable. What will happen is that he will definitely quarrel with the director and production team of Alibaba Pictures, and then transform into Lin Jiangwen Nan!

"I heard from the assistant that when he was on the phone, he was very arrogant. He seemed to think that my studio's answer of 'no intention' was stupid and disrespectful."

Shu Chang sat next to Liu Yifei and complained about the people of Alibaba Pictures.

"This matter should be over, right? We didn't contact him again yesterday."

Miss Liu leaned against Shu Chang and asked Lin Nan.

Director Lin is not sure whether there will be a follow-up to this matter. If it is from other companies in the film and television industry, then he can predict it, but people from Alibaba? Those are all crazy people! The official boss, their second child!

"I don't know. Anyway, the attitude of the three of us is very clear. We are not interested in the movie "Three Lives, Three Worlds and Ten Miles of Peach Blossoms". What else can Alibaba Pictures do? Throw me money to kill me?"

"How can you make such a metaphor?" Liu Yifei smiled and rolled her eyes.

Just when Lin Nan was about to continue joking, the mobile phone on the table rang.

"Sissi, your mouth is open!"

Lin Nan teased Liu Yifei with interest because the caller ID showed "Zhang Qiang". This was the contact information exchanged during the Shanghai International Film Festival last year.

At that time, Zhang Qiang took the initiative to hand business cards to all the bosses of the "big companies" in the film and television industry, and Lin Nan was certainly among them. After that, he politely gave them their phone numbers.

"Ah? Did you call me personally?" Shu Chang glanced at the incoming call on his phone and exclaimed.

"Lin Nan, listen to what he has to say."

Liu Yifei urged, with a sly smile on her face.

Looking at the two "curious babies", Lin Nan smiled speechlessly and then answered the phone.

"Hello?"

"Director Lin, I will contact you as soon as I finish my chores."

"Is there something wrong with Mr. Zhang?"

"Director Lin, you don't know? Forget it, let me tell you the truth. Alibaba Pictures wants to invite you and Producer Liu to star in "Three Lives Three Worlds Ten Miles of Peach Blossom". If you two can agree, we will no longer consider the other actors.

As for the remuneration, Director Lin can rest assured that we will definitely satisfy you. According to the exchange rate of Producer Liu's salary in Hollywood, we can give him 35 million. Although Director Lin rarely acts in movies, we can also give him this amount..."

"Mr. Zhang, no need."

Lin Nan interrupted Zhang Qiang, causing the latter to suddenly get stuck.

"What do you mean, Director Lin? Too little? We can still talk..."

"Ali's "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" is planned to be completed in one film, right?"

"Yes, one film is finished."

"Yue Jun once told people at Alibaba Pictures that this novel will be made into a movie, and it is recommended that it be made into at least two parts... This was also one of my company's previous plans.

So, Mr. Zhang, let’s not say that Yifei and I have no intention of starring in Alibaba Pictures’ “Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom”. Even if we did, we would still act in a series of two or three movies. Only in this way can we Tell the story well so that you won’t be scolded..."

Lin Nan didn't say the word "piece", but the meaning was already there.

Sure enough, after Zhang Qiang heard this, his tone instantly became much colder.

"Alibaba Pictures has its own production plans and ideas, which are different from Director Lin's understanding. If a big IP is broken up, the release timeline will be too long, and the cost... In short, since Director Lin doesn't have this idea, then forget it When we have the chance, let’s sit down and talk..."

"Well, then I won't waste Mr. Zhang's time."

He hung up the phone as soon as he said it, and Zhang Qiang obviously had a temper.

"Isn't that too shameless? Do you still understand differently? Is there anyone in Ali who understands movies better than my brother?"

Good guy, Shu Chang is so flattering.

Lin Nan gave her a satisfied look, while Liu Yifei knocked her best friend on the head, "I give you a thumbs up!"

…………

Alibaba Pictures.

Zhang Qiang had a gloomy expression on his face after hanging up the phone.

In his opinion, Lin Nan was very shameless. The movie hasn't even started filming yet, but you dare to say that Alibaba's "Three Lives Three Worlds" will be criticized as a bad movie. It's simply arrogant to the extreme.

"Are you there yet?"

"Mr. Zhang, we all arrived half an hour ago, except for Director Lin. In addition, Director Zhang Yibai, Director Anthony Lamorinara, and Director Zhao Xiaodeng are also there."

"It's not bad, let's decide among these 7 people."

Zhang Qiang said coldly, and none of his men dared to speak. Because they could all guess the general situation, it was just that Mr. Zhang had a problem with Director Lin Nan.

…

In the large conference room,

Although the actors seem to be in harmony with each other, this is only superficial. In fact, they all maintain a sense of distance.

After all, as the old saying goes: Enemies are extremely jealous when they meet. And among the same-sex people here, they are all enemies who want to compete.

Yang Mi and Liu Shishi are old enemies and have no communication at the moment;

Yang Mi and Yang Ying have collaborated before, but only once. A smile and a nod to say hello are enough;

As for Yang Ying and Liu Shishi? Even more unfamiliar! Even in Yang Ying's view, Liu Shishi was not a threat, because in terms of backstage and connections, the other party was completely inferior to her.

As for the male actors, it seemed much more natural. Especially when everyone found out that Lin Nan was not here, the huge feeling of pressure disappeared immediately.

"Everyone, let's go try on the clothes now, and then take a look in the mirror."

As Zhang Yibai's voice sounded, Yang Mi and others instantly became serious.

Afterwards, several female employees from Alibaba Pictures led everyone to the fitting room, with agents following them.

Not long after, Zhang Qiang walked in first.

"How about it?"

“Based on their understanding of the original work, they have done their homework.

However, judging from the team's analysis report on the market value of several of them, there is no distinction between actresses and actors. Overall, among the seven, Yang Mi has the highest market value!

Of course, if Producer Liu, Shu Chang and Director Lin can come, then..."

"No, Lin Nan clearly rejected me."

Hearing this, Zhang Yibai understood immediately.

"Then let's see how the fitting goes. If everything goes well, we think Yang Mi is more suitable for the heroine..."

…………

At noon, there was undoubtedly an extra pair of chopsticks on the dinner table.

Liu Xiaoli really liked this kind of lively scene.

Especially when Liu Yifei and Shu Chang were grabbing food, it was like they were together on the set, full of memories.

"Changchang, call 'Sister' and come listen."

Suddenly, Liu Yifei put down the chopsticks in her hand and raised her eyebrows at Shu Chang.

"Don't shout. I've been calling you Sissi for more than ten years. If you want to take advantage of me, there's no way. You're only 3 months older."

Shu Chang was holding the rice, but he didn't follow the rules!

Lin Nan looked at this scene and was curious about what Liu Yifei was going to do.

"Don't shout? Then don't regret it. I just remembered something. The TV series "Three Lives, Three Worlds and Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" seems to be in preparation. The team of Lin Nan Pictures has analyzed that this TV series will definitely be a hit.

Unfortunately, when the TV series is ready, it will be produced and produced by Hongxingwu... Well, now we are missing a leading heroine! I remember some people played vixens, right? It’s also a TV series and a classic character! Who is coming? "

Lin Nan was stunned. Good guy, is Ms. Liu going to appoint the heroine again?

"elder brother?"

Shu Chang opened his mouth and looked at Lin Nan.

Director Lin nodded, "Sissi didn't fool you, there is a 99% chance that it will be a hit... I am currently working on the script."

When Shu Chang heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

She first looked at the "arrogant" Liu Yifei, and then looked at Liu Xiaoli with an aggrieved look on her face: "Godmother, Sissi often bullies me..."
