That year Huayu

On the morning of the 8th, Wang Changtian personally led people to Lin Nan Pictures.

"As I told you before, although these two movies are commercial blockbusters for the Lunar New Year, they are only willing to sign a betting agreement on the total box office of "Detective Chinatown";

As for "The Secret of the Dragon", don't even think about it. Not many theaters agree. Wu Ershan is far inferior to you. He does not have the box office appeal, even if it is a top IP. "

"Not a few theaters agree? Then I'm curious about how many theaters agree? Which ones are they?"

In the office, Wang Changtian fell silent when faced with Lin Nan's inquiry.

Yue Jun next to him glanced at Lin Nan subconsciously. He had already guessed something, maybe not even "a few".

After a moment, Wang Changtian hesitated and spoke:

“Among the top ten theater chains with the largest market shares, only Wanda and Dadi Cinemas agreed, while the other large theater chains all opposed it, so that small theater chains that followed suit and opposed it swarmed in;

China Film Group's theaters, Polybona's theaters, Huayi Cinemas, and Star America Cinemas are all...actively opposed. "

The office fell silent for a moment. Unlike Yue Jun's surprise at the Central Theater Line, Lin Nan's face showed no strange emotion at all.

"Director Wang, as the distributor, Enlight would like to thank Wanda and Dadi Cinemas for me. I won't embarrass them either. "The Secret of the Dragon" will just be a bet without signing it."

Lin Nan said decisively and then looked at Yue Jun.

"Director Yue will follow Guang Guang to sign the total box office betting agreement for "Detective Chinatown" with major theater chains, and try to get it done within this week."

"No problem, Director Lin." Yue Jun nodded.

A few minutes later, only Lin Nan and Wang Changtian were left in the office, and everyone else left.

"To be honest, I think China Film's handling of things this time is a bit rough, but they have their share." Wang Changtian complained.

"Even if you have a share, you can't force others to bet. Once you sign a bet, it means that more film arrangement resources will be allocated to "The Secret of the Dragon", but whether you can receive the expected return on profits depends on It’s hard to say. After all, you don’t think Wu Ershan has that strong box office appeal, don’t you?

Lin Nan said tepidly. As for Huayi? They are all competitors, and of course they will oppose "The Secret of the Dragon".

As for "Detective Chinatown," Huayi couldn't afford to object, because most theater chains would definitely be willing to do it. If any family objects, it is very likely that Lin Nan will kill them to scare the monkeys.

Suddenly, Wang Changtian smiled and glanced at Lin Nan with a strange expression, "I discovered something interesting."

"What?"

"At first it was "Painted Skin 2" directed by Wu Ershan, and Shanghai Film Group fell behind; this time it was "The Secret of the Dragon" directed by him, and China Film Group actually fell behind even though it was a participating investor?! You think it's a coincidence? unfortunately?"

"It's really... it's really a coincidence."

Lin Nan smiled and shook his head. Shanghai Film had to wait for 5 years from "Painted Skin 2" to "Detective Chinatown".

Not long after, the two went to Tiangong Color.

If nothing else, the publisher of "Operation Mekong" is still Guangguang, well, at least it accounts for the majority.

Looking at the special effects company with more than 200 people, Wang Changtian couldn't help but feel envious: Lin Nan has many companies under his name, and Tiangong Color is undoubtedly the most valuable!

But when he saw Ning Hao, Lao Wang was a little confused. When it comes to post-editing of the movie, Ning Hao is not needed, right?

Under the awkward smile of Director Ning Da, Lin Nan could only joke, "He is busy at home, so he came to help, and it's free, just take care of the food. Haha..."

…

For four days in a row, Lin Nan was at home and at the company.

I turned on the news in the morning, and my dear, all the film and television information and entertainment gossip were suppressed by the news about the Water Cube and Ali’s Double Eleven Party last night.

To describe Alibaba’s Double Eleven Party in one sentence, that is: it really “bought” most of the entertainment industry to join in. It was inhumane and extravagant to the extreme!

Zhao Yanzi even posted a photo with Jack Ma, claiming that she would like to work as a customer service person at Alibaba... and the popularity and topic volume exploded.

And Youku's exclusive live broadcast of this party has earned enough traffic, and the limelight at this time completely crushed Tudou.

Not only that, in media reports, it is already stated: With Alibaba’s backing, Youku will sooner or later reach the top position in the domestic industry, and take advantage of the trend to overthrow Tudou...

When it comes to propaganda and "confused people", Lin Nan admires Ali, and even more admires "Feng Qingyang".

Morning, Nortel.

Lin Nan walked around the school. Today was the start time of his second elective course.

Many students around are rushing to the large terraced classrooms, and the limit of 30 elective courses is the same as before.

"What are you going to talk about today? The 'hidden rules' you talked about last time caused quite a stir in public opinion."

"I will continue to talk about 'rules' today, the rules for survival in the film and television industry, 'choice' and 'effort'!"

Lin Nan looked at Lao Jiang and couldn't help complaining again:

"Nortel's young actors are still too good. When Yifei Company's "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" is open for casting, I'm afraid I will have to try out in Chinese operas, or choose among those Chinese opera actors who have graduated before. ”

"My Director Lin, please keep your voice down. If people from the acting academy hear it, they won't dare to trouble you, but they dare to criticize me all day long."

Lao Jiang had a sad face. He originally thought that after becoming the deputy director, he could have "five people and six people";

But after he became the deputy director, he realized that it was not that the leaders of the acting school did not dare to complain in front of the director of the directing department, but because the previous director was Tian Zhuangzhuang, that's why they did not dare to complain!

"Whatever you are afraid of, just say it was me." Lin Nan smiled and put his arm on Lao Jiang's shoulder. In Nortel, he could also walk sideways!

"Relax, I am the instructor of Qin Department after all...I still have something to do."

"What's going on?" Lin Nan asked curiously.

"Preparations for the Grade 16 Art Examination are about to begin. Didn't you see many new faces in the school?"

Lin Nan heard this and followed Lao Jiang's gaze.

Sure enough... some people came early to "familiarize themselves with the environment", and the acting school was very lively.

Um? Lin Nan saw an acquaintance and looked over there.

"Hello, Director Lin."

The girl in the distance smiled and bent over, and the middle-aged man following her also lowered his head with a smile on his face as a greeting.

"Um."

Lin Nan nodded without saying much.

"you know?"

"You don't know? That little girl's first movie was Director Chen's "The Promise". She previously participated in my company's "Painted Skin 2", and this year she auditioned for my "Chinatown Detective". She is also in the industry. Guanhu...but his character is okay."

Hearing this, Lao Jiang immediately reacted, "That should be no problem. With this resume, I can enter the acting department with my eyes closed."

Good guy, Lin Nan doesn’t even know if Lao Jiang is praising Guan Xiaotong or satirizing the acting academy? But it's true.

"Oh, I almost forgot something. I just happened to meet you."

Lao Jiang patted his forehead and asked Xiang Lin Nan, "Do you want to take care of students?"

"What do you mean?" Lin Nan was a little confused.

"You are an associate professor, you can supervise graduate students, and you will be promoted to full professor within one or two years... The department asked me to communicate with you before... Hey, don't run away..."

"Are you kidding me? I don't have this kind of interest. It's not a good idea to be free. I'm out of my mind and will cause trouble for myself..."

The voice became smaller and smaller, and Lin Nan had already run away.

Lao Jiang looked at the retreating figure and murmured with a smile: "Oh, this guy's reactions are so quick!

The school does not lack a professor who can teach graduate students, but it lacks someone like you: the identity, status, connections, influence, and international reputation of a top director in the film industry..."

When Lin Nan walked into the classroom, she was still complaining in her heart. Want to prostitute him for nothing? Beautiful thought!

Today's classroom is still full.

Standing on the podium, Lin Nan glanced over and saw Chen Yao, an artist from the Tang Dynasty.

It really corresponded to the topic of his lecture today: "Choice" and "Effort".

Although the web drama "Wuxin Master" is very good, she "chooses" Tang people, which is a trap. What if I try harder later?

…

While Lin Nan was giving lectures, Liu Yifei was not idle either.

She was sitting on the sofa, with her right leg crossed over her left leg, arranging her work with an impressive aura:

"Be prepared, our casting this time will mainly focus on TV drama actors, mainly from the three major art schools, with China Drama first, then Shanghai Drama and Nortel...

After the script has been reviewed, the audition announcement can be sent out immediately, and Director Jiang from Lin Nan Pictures will help with the audition and casting..."

The two assistants nodded hurriedly and memorized every word.

"You really learned from your family, Director Lin. You came from Nortel, but you 'discriminate' against Nortel."

"I didn't. Don't talk nonsense. This is the industry's recognized and tacit acceptance!"

Looking at Tang Yan and Luo Jin who came to the capital from the crew's vacation, Liu Yifei denied it with a smile.

"It's not like Yifei excluded Nortel. Isn't there Nortel?" Tang Yan helped Luo Jin.

"Okay, that's all, you can go back."

After sending away the two assistants, Liu Yifei's aura calmed down a bit: "Wait for Lin Nan, he will be back at noon, and we will have lunch together then."

"Okay. By the way, where's Auntie? We've been here for twenty minutes and we haven't seen Auntie yet." Tang Yan asked curiously.

"Mom has returned to her hometown again. My grandma and the others are very old and need someone to accompany them."

Liu Yifei explained, then picked up her phone, "Let's figure out where to eat lunch first, or order food to be delivered to home?"

"House or guest, it's up to you. We only have two days off. After Luo Jin reports to Alibaba Pictures tomorrow, we have to go back to the set."

"Is the movie version going to be started?" Liu Yifei responded.

"Well, it's about to start."
