Chapter 108 Setting the schedule and arranging films
The news of Shu Chang being accused had just been forgotten by everyone, and Leader Huang came again and was sued by his own agency.
It can be said that "The Condor", "Liao Zhai" and even "Emperor 3" and "The Night Banquet" were all taken on privately without the company's knowledge, as were many commercial activities.
There are a lot of people watching the excitement. Huang Xiaoming is now a very popular niche. But judging from these scenes revealed, this period has lasted for more than a year. Now that he wants to sue, it is obviously for other reasons, or
There was no discussion in private.
During this week, Lin Nan took his father to visit various scenic spots in the capital, such as the Forbidden City and the Great Wall, to pay homage to great men... and finally went to Babao Mountain.
On the seventh day of the Lunar New Year, Lin Nan secretly called Liu Yifei out. She only wanted to eat, but Liu Xiaoli didn't care.
Here in the private dining room, Old Lintou was still talking about how expensive it was, but when he saw his son bringing a little girl in, his expression changed instantly.
Like an old farmer who saw a good harvest, he smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed.
"Hello, uncle."
Liu Yifei shouted timidly, a little restrained, and pulled Lin Nan's arm.
"Okay, sit down quickly, the food is still hot, I haven't touched it yet..."
Lin Nan felt sour after hearing these words.
My father, Lao Huai, was so pleased that he drank several cups and even told Lin Nan not to smoke or drink, as it was not good for his health.
He looked at Liu Yifei again and said, "You look familiar to me. I think I've met you before?"
"On TV, we are classmates."
Lin Nan explained that since he entered this industry, Lao Lin began to care about this aspect.
"Oh, hello, classmate, hello classmate, I know everything. If this guy bullies you in the future, just tell me, I can't beat him to death..."
Liu Yifei was made a little shy, with a smile on her red cheeks.
This meal was also a farewell meal for Lao Lintou. He couldn't let go of his hotel and wanted to go back.
Lin Nan forcefully bought him a plane ticket.
At the airport, Liu Yifei stayed in the car and did not come out. Lin Nan was pulled aside by her father.
"If you have a girlfriend, just have a good relationship with her. Don't mess around. Just like your cousin in the village, he will change his wife if he has a few bad dollars..."
As he said this, Old Lin looked at Lin Nan with a softer look in his eyes, "I don't care what you do to me in the future, but don't lose your conscience. Okay, you go back, I'll go in too."
As he said this, Lao Lin waved his hand and went straight into the waiting hall without looking back.
Lin Nan didn't return to the car until he couldn't see his back at all.
Liu Yifei is still giggling, but it's very cute. At this moment, she still has the delicate cheeks of Xiao Longnu.
"Do you and your uncle always get along like this? Do you always want to beat you?"
Liu Yifei asked curiously. She wanted to ask just now, but never had the chance.
Looking at Liu Yifei who was gloating about her misfortune, Lin Nan ignored her and said, "Go back."
"Ignore me? You are bullying me. I will tell my uncle, haha."
Lin Nan suddenly said, "How to tell? Do you have my hometown address? Or do you have my dad's phone number? Hahaha..."
"Yeah!" Liu Yifei finally reacted, with an annoyed look on her face, "Drive."
"Okay!"
…
On the first day of closing, the application for a screening permit for "Time Cruiser" was submitted, along with the complete film.
Han Sanping has a big mouth and revealed the news that "Time Cruiser" is scheduled to be released in May without getting a screening permit.
In his words, "Is screening permission a thing?"
Well, Lin Nan admitted that the probability of getting stuck is almost zero.
At the entrance of China Film Studio, Lin Nan was blocked by reporters.
"Director Lin, can I ask, what do you think of the polarizing reputation of "Fearless"?"
"I have been busy with the post-editing of "Time Cruiser" during this period, and I haven't watched the movie yet. But isn't it normal for a movie to have polarizing reviews?"
"Did you know that Huang Xiaoming proposed to terminate the contract with the brokerage company in court?"
"have no idea."
"Who are you seeing off at the airport?"
"My dad."
…
Ren Zhonglun, a rare visitor to the capital, was currently staring at Han Sanping.
"Old Ren, you came here quietly and didn't even say hello."
"Is it useful to say hello? You have a really big appetite and you don't want to take any pictures of me."
Han Sanping smiled awkwardly, "Isn't that why I didn't eat it?"
Lin Nan walked in and said, "Director Ren, we can prepare for the promotion and distribution of the movie."
Seeing the strange atmosphere between the two, Lin Nan interrupted: "The screening permit has been approved."
Ren Zhonglun put on a smile and ignored Han Sanping, "Well, the people below have already started to do it."
"Mr. Ren just called back in front of me, for fear that I would steal his job." Han Sanping joked.
"China Film Group's dominance is no longer just a day or two. Not to mention those private companies, even our companies that come from the same film studio are still being bullied by you."
Ren Zhonglun's words hurt his lungs. That's really what happened.
In the afternoon of that day, the news of "Time Cruise" appeared in various media news.
"Director Lin's latest commercial film has obtained a screening permit and will be promoted and distributed by Shanghai Film Film Corporation."
""Time Cruise" is initially scheduled to be released in May, less than 100 days later."
Everyone in the industry knows that Lin Nan is planning to try to distribute the film in multiple regions, and even North America is being planned.
"Science fiction and horror films should be considered popular genres all over the world. It's not surprising that he has such ideas and plans this time."
News also spread that Lionsgate was helping Lin Nan distribute the movie, and it was Lin Nan who made the contact himself, which made many people jealous.
Because this is not the kind of cooperation that simply provides money for things, Lionsgate gave Lin Nan a lot of praise for his new movie. This is a personal relationship.
The number of work arrangements suddenly increased.
After the film was completed, the crew and creative staff met for the first time.
"I didn't expect that Director Kaige wouldn't even be nominated." Chen Minghao couldn't see the expression of regret, but instead seemed to be mocking.
"In the next period of time, we need everyone to cooperate with some programs. The time is not achieved overnight. It may be quite long. There are also promotional videos and posters. The latter are not only released in China."
Lin Nan emphasized the second half of the sentence, and everyone suddenly became more energetic.
Gao Yuanyuan seems to be in good spirits. When she was filming "Baby Project" in early January, she made the breakup public and she should have come out of it by now.
In the past few years, Lin Nan and the Sixth Princess have been getting along well, and their first stop was the movie channel.
On the way, everyone was still joking that now the monks no longer chant sutras and are focused on getting involved in the film and television industry. The famous temple is currently filming "Legend of the Shaolin Monks".
"I believe they will start a company to go public any day, or enter the real estate industry." Tian Yu prophesied carelessly.
"Don't talk nonsense, it is a religious place after all..."
Zeng Li kindly reminded me.
The movie channel is more formal. Unlike other talk shows, it also asks questions about personal life.
Lin Nan and others knew everything about the film's concept, conception, props, casting, and preparation process, but they must have polished it a lot according to the script.
A few dozen seconds of footage was also shown on the movie channel, with the camera constantly switching and the background music adding a bit of a frightening feeling.
This is also the first wave of promotional content. According to the plan, some clips will be released from time to time in the past two to three months to attract the audience's attention.
The movie channel's recording and broadcast that day will be available to the audience in the evening.
"Is this definitely a science fiction film, not a horror film? How can an animal rot like that just after it dies?"
"It's too short and should be released earlier..."
"Is this just trying to cut the edge of a horror movie? Only a great director can do this!"
The dozens of seconds of video released attracted a lot of people's attention.
The music, colors, scenes and phenomena that resembled a horror movie made it onto the news headlines the next day.
"I watched TV yesterday. It was very good."
Liu Yifei's "The Condor" unfortunately had a small accident. The clips of Blueberry Channel and Lychee Stage were ridiculed by a large number of netizens because in the clips, you can clearly see the through camera, the wire hanging wires, the edge of the swimming pool, etc.
"So, the broadcast has been postponed again?"
"Yes, they said it will be in March."
Originally, Liu Yifei told Lin Nan that she must take a good look at her "The Condor" this time. She missed it every time before. Who knew that something like this would happen.
After comforting Liu Yifei, Lin Nan was attracted by a message.
Good news media rated the eight most competitive film and television companies in China last year.
If Lin Nan can't be judged, then he can't be judged, but he was slapped down in the end.
"Because the company is small in scale, only director Lin Nan is responsible for it. Therefore, although its performance is outstanding, it will not be included in the selection list."
Well, the names on the list are indeed big companies, either New Picture, Huayi, or Chengtian.
According to news from Lionsgate, the filming of "Insidious 1" is in full swing and has been underway for half a month.
Lin Nan is envious of their industrial efficiency. When "Time Cruise" is released, he can learn to engage in this model after graduation.
Tom sent the first batch of small companies to introduce them. They were all at the bottom level. From time to time, they would do outsourcing for large companies, but the scale was really small, and the number of people with equipment was almost the same as that of a studio.
Lin Nan replied, asking to continue screening and not to send any more submissions as small as the studio level.
New Line sent news that the 3D production of "Journey to the Center of the Earth" has been completed. This is quite different from the production time of the 3D movies in Lin Nan's mind.
Only in the end did he realize that he had been led astray by Cameron's 3D. The old card had created a new world, and it was no longer an ordinary 3D movie. Besides, New Line also used stereoscopic cameras when filming. The starting point was
high.
The domestic parties involved in the investment were very happy. It was the first time that everyone sat down together to discuss this matter.
"Did they give you time? When will you come?"
"I told me once before that they want to strike while the iron is hot. In the middle of this year, when it comes to the timetable for introducing films, they will look at China Film and Shanghai Film."
Lin Nan looked at Han Sanping and said.
"Well, I have to check the time later."
"However, it is a pity that when it was introduced to China, most viewers could only see the 2D version. There are currently too few 3D theaters."
When people from Wanda heard this, they had an idea and said: "Several of our cinemas support 3D movies and have 2K digital projectors. We will continue to increase investment in the next few months..."
Chapter completed!
