That year Huayu

Liu Yifei's talk at the premiere of "Detective Chinatown" last night has been on the front page of film and television entertainment news since midnight.

In the morning, its popularity and discussion were even higher, attracting the attention of the entire film and television industry and the entire Internet.

The three commercials accompanying the film actually sold for an unprecedented and astonishing price of 210 million. What does this mean?

This means that although "Detective Chinatown" has not yet been released to the public, it has already achieved a net profit revenue of 90 million, because the production cost of the film was only 120 million.

As the number one top director in China, Lin Nan's box office appeal and market influence are undoubtedly fully reflected at this moment.

If at the premiere, it was just the sky-high price of the commercials sold with the film that made the industry dumbfounded, then that would be fine;

The key is that Liu Yifei is rare, revealing Lin Nan Pictures' future film project plans in public for the first time.

In other words, "Detective Chinatown" is being considered for production into a series!

The release of such "internal" news was no less than the dropping of a depth bomb for the film and television industry, and the repercussions were huge.

"What is the most important part of the series? The most important thing is the original cast!"

Early in the morning, there was a lot of noise at Nortel.

Because the registration for the art exam is just around the corner, Liu Haoran, last year’s freshman at China Drama, has overnight become the focus of heated discussion and the envy of the level 16 art exam candidates;

Incidentally, Lian Zhongxi Opera is also at this juncture of the art exam, and there is a faint tendency to overtake Nortel in the limelight.

Chinese drama, art exam freshman, Lin Nan Films, commercial series... these words are strung together, it is a naked slap in the face, a slap in the face of Nortel.

"You'd better not hang around the acting academy these days. They are so aggrieved when they mention Liu Haoran and "Detective Chinatown".

The top cake of commercial series was given to the actors in the drama by their own great director! Tsk tsk tsk, as expected, it is always your own people who hurt your own people the most! Ha ha……"

Listening to Lao Jiang's teasing and joking, Lin Nan smiled speechlessly and continued to fill in the information while asking:

"According to the procedure, it will be announced before summer vacation next year?"

Hearing this, the smile on Lao Jiang's face that had just been filled with excitement in the performance department disappeared instantly, and turned into a "lemony" expression in the blink of an eye.

"Well, it will be announced at the end of the semester. And other associate professors must submit papers or works before the end of March next year and participate in promotion defense in April.

As for you? There is no need for a defense. How do those judging professors sitting below have the qualifications to judge you? They also want to lose face. Just submit your work! "

Lin Nan understood immediately when he heard this, "Can you help me with the professional title review materials?"

"Haha, if you have time, you can do it yourself! I'm such a hard worker..." Lao Jiang said angrily, full of resentment.

"Then thank you, Deputy Director Jiang, haha..."

Director Lin smiled and handed over several documents such as the "Registration Form of Work Information" and the "Letter of Commitment for the Defense of Nortel Director Department Promotion to Senior Professional Title" signed with his name.

"Huh? It's not "Detective Chinatown"!"

Lao Jiang glanced at the "Movie Title" column and exclaimed.

"Operation Mekong is more suitable. But in order to avoid the risk of the source of the film being leaked, I can only send the copy over on the defense day in April. Is that okay?"

Lin Nan said without any doubt. After all, according to his idea, "Operation Mekong" will be released in the second half of the year.

"Director Lin's request is of course no problem!"

Lao Jiang smacked his lips and nodded to Lin Nan.

After finishing his business, Lin Nan didn't stay at school for a moment; his goal was too big, and if he didn't meet it, he would be blocked by the acting academy or someone else.

But he has to come again tomorrow morning because he has his last elective class.

As 11 o'clock approached, another piece of entertainment news suddenly appeared on the top of the entertainment headlines of major portal websites and the top trending searches on Weibo.

The entire film and television entertainment industry and countless netizens on the Internet immediately focused their attention on the first sister of the Tang Dynasty and the former Thunderbolt Tiger who had not been seen for a long time.

“After registering their marriage at the beginning of the year, this morning, popular actress Liu Shishi and ‘Fourth Master’ Wu Qilong announced their wedding guest invitation list;

The two have officially sent wedding invitations to the film and television industry; the wedding is scheduled for late March next year in Bali..."

"It is reported that Cai Yinong and Tangren Film's official Weibo did not repost Liu Shishi's wedding related Weibo..."

"Informed industry insiders revealed that Liu Shishi's actor management contract with Tangren Pictures will expire within next year; the former's attitude is unclear and he is suspected of intending to leave..."

…

Tang people.

Cai Yinong looked at the wedding invitation in his hand, his expression was rather reminiscing, but also obviously indifferent.

She discovered Liu Shishi in the last few days of 2005. After being given the resources for a TV series, she signed a contract in the second half of 2006. It will be 10 years ago.

For more than a year, Liu Shishi's perfunctory attitude in the face of many tentative "sustainment" efforts from the company and her has made the problem clear, that is, the contract will not be renewed when it expires!

That's why Cai Yinong is so "cold".

"Have Hu Ge and the others received it?" Cai Yinong looked at the secretary.

"I've received them all. They have reserved their time slots in advance and will go. Mr. Cai, is this the company's side?"

"Just give me a gift. After all, I am an old man of 10 years."

Cai Yinong said coldly that she would not go.

"By the way, is there any news from Nazha and Chen Yao?"

At this time, Cai Yinong was more concerned about the affairs of the other two artists than being a wolf who was promoted to the front line and was not familiar with them.

"They both went back to school today. There is no news about the results of the auditions yet."

"Go back to school? If you don't make many announcements at the end of the year, what school should you go back to?" Cai Yinong frowned.

"It seems that they are, they are students in Director Lin Nan's elective class, and they have the last class tomorrow."

Upon hearing this, Cai Yinong was immediately speechless.

For young actors, an announcement is definitely not as important as leaving a good impression in front of a big director!

Cai Yinong nodded, then fell silent again.

After a long time, she looked at her secretary and asked a question that made the other party speechless:

"After she leaves, in terms of resource allocation in the company, who can be the 'first sister'?"

…

Liu Yifei and Shu Chang were eating snacks there and waiting for lunch in the restaurant.

Lin Nan looked at the wedding invitation on the table with a disgusted expression and complained:

“After registering a marriage is so popular now, do you need to hold a make-up wedding after more than one or two years?”

"What, there must have been a wedding before. But now that we are famous, it is just a grand event. There must be a purpose of hype, publicity, and character building."

Shu Chang made the final decision and came to the conclusion firmly. She felt that Bao Bei'er didn't look like a good person.

That's right, the wedding invitation in front of Lin Nan was sent by Guangguang. After all, he was the first brother of Guangguang.

"For Wang Dong's sake, just go along with him. Let Xie Nan help you take him there later. We have nothing to do with each other."

Liu Yifei expressed her opinion while eating melon seeds.

"Okay, listen to my wife."

Of course Lin Nan had no objection and raised an eyebrow at Liu Yifei.

Miss Liu caught it and then threw it over with a playful wink in return.

"It's time to have lunch soon. Can you guys calm down? I want to eat, not dog food!"

Shu Chang pouted, rolled his eyes, and complained angrily.

"Others may not be qualified to eat our dog food, but you still dislike it." Lin Nan teased with interest.

"Yeah, just be content, hehe..."

Like a female bandit, Liu Yifei hugged Shu Chang's shoulders and shook her with a smile.

Lin Nan saw this, and there was a moment of hesitation in his expression.

Why does Miss Liu's action look so familiar? Good guy, this is what I was taught by that female gangster Zhou Xun!

…

Sometimes I have to say that some people are really suitable for the entertainment industry.

In the afternoon, Lin Nan saw movie information on the Internet;

Shu Chang's "little cousin" who is not related by blood must have successfully hooked up with a certain film and television capital in the industry.

The movie she starred in in the second half of last year has been officially scheduled for mid-March; and her co-star is Xia Yu, with Yang Zi as her voice actor.

It’s just that the name of this movie sounds like it’s going to hit the streets – “Los Angeles Trouble”!

I just don’t know how it will hit the market by then. After all, after the Spring Festival, the film market will inevitably be depressed for a month.

Early morning on the 30th.

As expected by the industry, "Bad Angel" continued to plummet. Yesterday, the daily box office on the 29th dropped from 31.1 million on the 28th to 23.7 million.

Although the daily box office of "Lao Pao Er" plummeted from 70.35 million to 50.1 million on the 28th, yesterday on the 29th, it managed to hold on to the 50 million threshold and closed at 51.01 million.

The fact that the two movies compete at the box office has indeed attracted the attention of the industry;

However, the popularity of information related to Hongxingwu's "Three Lives, Three Worlds and Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" is no less popular than that of "Villain Angel" and "Old Paoer".

"At around 8 o'clock this morning, Hongxingwu Pictures announced the core cast list of actresses in the TV series "Three Lives Three Worlds":

After several big-screen movies, popular A-list actress Shu Chang returns to the TV drama stage and will play the female lead;

Popular actress Reba will challenge the second female lead;

Chen Yao and Meng Ziyi, grade 13 students of the Nortel Acting Department, will play the roles of Su Jin and Xuannv respectively; popular actor Mu Tingting will play the role of Rouge;

Kang Keren, a grade 14 student in the Chinese Opera Department, will play the role of Shaoxin;

…”

Lin Nan hasn't set off for school yet, but he knows that Nortel must have "exploded" because the Internet is even more popular!

"I'm going, Shu Chang? The goddess is back to act in a TV series?"

"She has played the role of a vixen! In the early stage, Xiaoyu was pure and pure, but after turning into a black girl, Xiaoyu is even more beautiful and sassy!"

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, good fellow, in terms of qualifications, acting skills, and achievements, don't you think we should be scorning the movie version of Yang Mi?"

"Upstairs, have you forgotten? In the voting for the heroine of Alibaba Pictures' movie version, Shu Chang was second, before Yang Mi..."

"This year is coming to an end. There are still 45 years until 2060. I wonder if I can wait?"

“Look at the photos, all the members are beautiful! It’s so eye-catching!!”

"Shu Chang has so many costumed characters and costumed mythical characters, and I am deeply impressed by them all! Concubine Dong E, Tianshan Tonglao, Shui Sheng, Xu Lian, Jingwei, Xiaoyu..."

…

Obviously, among the actresses in the drama version of "Three Lives, Three Worlds, Ten Miles of Peach Blossom" announced by Hongxingwu, Shu Chang is the undoubted focus of the entire network.

Because in terms of audience popularity, she is really impeccable among actresses born in 1985, and she can compete head-on with Liu Yifei!

The crew of "Dear Translator".

When Yang Mi and Zeng Jia saw the list of actresses in Hongxingwu, they were stunned.

"I knew it, I knew it wouldn't be ordinary. Shu Chang...it's no different from asking her to act!"

Yang Mi's mouth was bitter, and she felt like the pressure had doubled, and even the expression on her face subconsciously became serious.

Zeng Jia was extremely embarrassed at this time. She always told Yang Mi: There are not many actresses in your age group who can compare with you...

But usually there are only a few who come out to challenge each time - those who are stronger than Yang Mi! Or acting skills, or celebrity status, or resources, or nationality, or a combination of several!

"Mimi, we..."

"It's nothing, I don't take it seriously."

In just a minute or two, Yang Mi's momentum became much fiercer.

In her opinion, she is not inferior to anyone or any actress of the same age... She was not inferior to them before, but now she is more confident!

Even if the other party is a child star who debuted as a child star, has excellent acting skills, has many hit masterpieces, and has very high national popularity... a first-line actress!

"Okay, well said. I will always firmly believe that you are the most resilient! Shu Chang is just lucky and has a good best friend..."

Zeng Jia cheered for Yang Mi excitedly.

…

Cai Yinong was very excited because Chen Yao got the role.

Originally, she had guessed that both of them would fail, but now one of them had good luck!

This is indeed a great thing for the company.

"Although Nazha didn't choose..."

At this point, Cai Yinong also realized the main reason why Nazha lost the election. That is, Nazha is very good-looking, but she collides with Reba.

"Although Chen Yao's acting skills are not bad, this is the entertainment industry, and actresses have to look at their appearance after all! There are a few who can truly take the route of acting!"

Cai Yinong looked at the secretary and said seriously and solemnly.

Of course the latter understood what Cai Yinong meant: from now on, the few resources of the Tang Dynasty, especially those in Hong Kong, would fall to Nazha, replacing Liu Shishi's position.

Lin Nan drove the car and entered the Nortel school gate.

Originally, Liu Yifei wanted to join in the fun and come along to "listen to the class", but she was abducted by a phone call from Zhou Xun, who immediately called Shu Chang to go hang out with her.

There is a "noisy" atmosphere in the school.

Because there are only 7 days left to register for the art exam at Nortel, and all departments are busy preparing for the art exam, and a large number of art candidates are also busy making up classes and making connections at Nortel...

Not only that, the actress lineup announced by Hongxingwu is also an important reason for the excitement and excitement in the school.

After all, this is the first time that a student from the Nortel Performance Department has been selected by Liu Yifei and Lin Nan. It is indeed worthy of celebration; and in many cases and many things, if there is a first time, there will be a second time!

"I've been squatting here for you for a while."

Seeing Lao Zhou's smiling face, Lin Nan always had a bad feeling.

"Teacher Zhou, why are you squatting with me?"

"I'm afraid you'll slip away too quickly after class, so I'll stop you in advance.

This morning, word spread in the school that Chen Yao and Meng Ziyi are both students in your elective class. Is this the reason why Yifei decided to settle down with you?

No, someone has already suggested that you should double the number of students who can take courses next time. "

"So, I want you to be a lobbyist?"

Lin Nan joked with a smile, and he felt relieved after hearing this.

"You have also been working under me for a semester. How can I not know what your temper is like? I will not do such a thankless job. Deputy Director Jiang also slipped away very quickly!"

"Then what are you doing?"

"Yifei, do you want to sign someone? Under my hand... Hey, don't run away, you look like you have long legs, don't you..."

"Teacher Zhou, I didn't choose them because they are the people in my elective course. Besides...you have a pretty good idea. How could Yifei, who is such a Buddhist, sign an artist. Haha..."

Lin Nan raised his hands above his head without looking at the waving hand behind him. Teacher Zhou's voice became farther and farther away.

At ten o'clock in the morning, there were more students in the large staircase classroom than when Lin Nan had her first class;

It was so crowded that there were even scenes where two people sat in one seat.

And in the first row are those familiar faces. There are Chen Yao and Meng Ziyi who have just been confirmed by Hongxingwu, and there are also Nazha and Song Yiren who have been brushed off...

"First of all, I want to tell you some good news. This is the last section of my elective course this semester. I am finally liberated."

Lin Nan first made a joke to calm down the atmosphere.

Others are joking to liven up the atmosphere, but he is "cooling down", which shows how lively the atmosphere in the classroom is.

It is estimated that many people have assumed that the reason why Hongxingwu chose Chen Yao and Meng Ziyi is because they are students in Lin Nan's elective class!

"Second good news, there are no end-of-semester exams for my electives because I hate exams too!"

As soon as Lin Nan said these words, there was a burst of laughter on the scene.

Obviously there are only thirty people in the class who are official students, but at this moment it is as if everyone is a student in the class who does not need to take exams, and the atmosphere is extremely good. Maybe it's because Lin Nan, a top director, is easy to talk to and young.

"In the last class, let's talk about the mentality you need to have when you are struggling in the film and television entertainment industry; that is, everyone must have an understanding that the effort and reward are never proportional.

To sum it up, it is fourteen words: small red depends on support, that is, resources; big red depends on fate, which is metaphysics!

So, if you want to last long, you must have a good mentality..."

This class seems to be delayed by Lin Nan. It's not that he wants to delay the class, but because he was surrounded and asked if he would teach next semester.

Lin Nan has not thought about this matter yet, but he should be very busy next year, and he is likely not to come to school to teach.

...

Time flies, and it is finally the last day of December, which is also the last day of this year.

For the production industry, the most important thing today is that Lin Nan's "Detective Chinatown" is released, which is another movie that leaves no room for everyone.

Early in the morning, the film and television entertainment information was flooded with news about several Lunar New Year movies. At a glance, it was all data.

"Produced by Huayi, directed by Guan Hu, starring Feng Xiaogang, Wu Yifan, Li Yifeng, Zhang Hanyu, Xu Qing, Liu Hua, Bai Jugang and others, the Lunar New Year action drama "Old Cannon" has been released for a week, with a total box office of 398.5 million, and yesterday's box office was 46.07 million."

"Controlled by Enlight Pictures, co-produced by Orange Image, directed by Deng Chao, starring Deng Chao, Sun Li, Liang Chao and others; the Lunar New Year comedy film "Bad Angels" has been released for a week, with a total box office of 574 million, and yesterday's box office fell to 15.87 million..."

"Produced by Lin Nan Pictures, Enlight, Wanda, China Film, and Shanghai Film, directed by Lin Nan, produced by Liu Yifei, and starring Wang Baoqiang, Starring Liu Haoran, Tang Yan, Xiao Yang, Chen He, Zhang Zaifeng and others;

The comedy, action, and detective blockbuster "Detective Chinatown" has landed in theaters nationwide early this morning and was officially released..."

"According to the theater data, on the first day of the release of "Detective Chinatown", the comprehensive screening rate was as high as 58.88%!

The screening volume of many Lunar New Year films such as "Old Cannon" and "Bad Angels" has been greatly reduced and squeezed... The audience has been seriously diverted and plummeted..."

...

Lin Nan felt that Huayi must want to kill him at this moment, because the 58.88% screening rate must have been obtained by sucking the marrow from other movies.

And "Old Cannon", which has just been released for a week, must be the first target.

"Lin Nan, Mr. Wang's call."

Liu Yifei, wearing a facial mask and a pink cotton pajamas, lazily lay on the sofa and waved to Lin Nan.

She had just gotten up and was woken up by Lin Nan because Liu Xiaoli called back in the morning!

"Boss Wang?"

"Lin Nan, the first week of "Bad Angels" is almost over. The next "Old Cannon" is handed over to you. Don't leave it any chance, haha..."

Hearing this, Lin Nan didn't know what to say to Wang Changtian for a while. How could this be decided by personal will? All he could do was to do his best and leave the rest to fate, and he had already done everything he could.

"Let's watch it tomorrow. Fortunately, it's not only the Lunar New Year's Day, but also the New Year's Day tomorrow. The box office should continue to explode."

Lin Nan thought briefly in his mind and said with certainty: "It will definitely be no problem for the first day box office to exceed "The Lost Tomb", after all, the screening rate is so high."

"Can it reach 2.5?"

"It's hard to say, but we should be able to expect it."

"If it can reach 2.5, then with your appeal, 2 billion in a month should not be a big problem..."

"Stop!"

Lin Nan shouted hurriedly, and Liu Yifei beside him was startled. She hummed at him unhappily, and then began to close her eyes and rest.

"Okay, okay, I won't open champagne before the game. I just want to call you to tell you that Huayi's screening rate has been cut a lot, and it has to beat the dog when it's down...Okay, I still have next year's project plan to look at..."

Wang Changtian was about to hang up the phone, but Lin Nan suddenly remembered "Pacific Rim 2" in his mind.

When Pacific Rim 1 was being produced, China Film was among the producers, and it was Lin Nan who took the initiative to give it a share.

But this time, he has made up his mind not to bring China Film.

If China Film is not brought, should the domestic production camp bring Guangguang? Or add others? After all, it is an A-level co-production, so the bigger the lineup, the better.

"Mr. Wang?"

"Well, what's wrong?"

Wang Changtian responded, but Lin Nan was a little stuck again, his mind was a mess, and he had to sort out his thoughts carefully.

"It's okay, let's talk about it after the New Year."

"Hey, you are still inexplicable. That's it, I'm dead."

"Well."
