Chapter 145 Berlin, "Buried Alive" Promotion
The director sent an email to Lin Nan and asked him to put it together. The new banner is ready to be customized at any time.
The school also made new promotional materials for him, which will be used during the art exam.
This left Lin Nan very speechless. He was really squeezed by the art exam every year, and this was already his third year.
I'm afraid there will be a fourth or fifth year later, but I don't know if the school will let him go after he graduates from graduate school.
"This really caught me trying to pluck the wool."
Lin Nan quietly made a foreign language film and took it to Berlin. Only then did the domestic media consciously pay attention to his movements in Hollywood.
Without noticing it, I noticed that Lin Nan had attended many film public relations receptions recently, and even met Jackie Chan once.
Two dramas that left a deep impression on Lin Nan have started airing, Hu Jun and Chen Daoming's "Sleeping on the Fire" and Chen Baoguo's "The Ming Dynasty". The former is on CCTV and the latter is on Mango, which is a great drama to start the new year.
They are all actors in "The Martian", and Lin Nan sent a special message to congratulate them.
"Director Catherine, we are not short of time and we will try our best to make the movie as perfect as possible," Lin Nan instructed.
Liu Yifei was too embarrassed to say anything, and Lin Nan didn't bother to care. In fact, everyone had already drifted away.
The two of them left after not staying long.
"Go back and contact him. Don't go away for a few months and your thoughts will wander. We don't like this style..."
At the end of January, Lin Nan and Tom flew to Berlin together. Ryan Reynolds would be there during the opening ceremony. This movie is very special because it does not have a female protagonist.
It's just that this stall sells movies, and they're expensive.
"Yes, I understand."
"No, no, it's too early to talk about this now." Lin Nan said with a smile.
Lin Nan's contract for director Catherine was a series contract. He wanted to make a good start with the first film and try not to change the lineup later, so that the style of the film could remain consistent.
Lin Nan also had a headache. If Zhou Yang was like Jiang Yiyan, he would not have any worries.
Many filmmakers were very curious when they heard the news. They may not have heard of this name in China.
"On the first of next month, you can take a brochure back. This is a very special movie, I promise."
"You are an old man from Berlin, so you don't need to be so formal, right?"
"Then do you think I can afford to compensate?"
"Lin, are you going to the opening ceremony? Or will you arrive before the closing ceremony and awards night?"
This time is considered a normal time, because most of the filmmakers and production companies selling copyrights have almost arrived.
Many film dealers gathered around, making Lin Nan feel a bit like setting up a street stall.
Lin Nan gave him a thumbs up, as everyone knows about it.
Tom gave his advice again.
It is rare for domestic directors to make foreign-language films, but Lin Nan has been in the limelight this time, and a lot more people are paying attention to his film.
A group of people suddenly had some thoughts in their hearts.
But Crystal Pictures is different. After all, the scale was not large before. Even if new people are constantly added during this period, it will always take time to adjust and the efficiency is very low.
"Taylor, how can you know if you don't try it? This movie seems to be the first independently produced film by this company. Maybe we will have a chance with other movies in the future."
The New Line has detailed schedule arrangements for the later stages. For such a large project, it is much more rigorous because of its rich experience.
"That's good, you'll have to rely on yourself from now on." After a long time, Lin Nan only said this.
I just don’t know how many billions of dollars this year’s transaction volume will be.
Not only Tom, but also Wen Ziren is not optimistic about this movie, vampire + youth campus love, which has nothing outstanding in the Hollywood movie market. The story is old-fashioned, the plot is rough, and the emotions are pale...
Drawing on the lessons learned from the last "Into the Dust", Lin Nan will prepare for the promotion of the movie in advance this time.
Almost all the shortcomings that can be thought of when evaluating a movie can be applied here.
On the other side, the girl looked at the mobile phone in her hand and smiled, water dripping on it.
Renting a venue for the premiere and setting aside time for publicity were all Lin Nan had taken into consideration and couldn't be as careless as last time.
Filmmakers and studios from all over the world are rushing here, and large posters of some films can already be seen.
I followed Tom to visit the cast of "Twilight". The filming of this film is planned to take three to four months, and the progress is currently less than half of it.
She understood what he meant by that sentence: you're on your own from now on.
Huang Shengyi and Xinghui won the lawsuit and it was decided in Hong Kong Island.
There are only twenty-six films in the main competition, and they have long been remembered by people.
All the actors' eyes widened. If Lionsgate distributes it, there will definitely be many theaters open. If it can be popular?
Speaking more carefully, Lin Nan arrived relatively late during the first two times he came to Berlin, in time for the opening ceremony.
"Well, what you said makes sense. Do you still have your golden mean and Confucianism..."
Randomly changed his words and banned Zhou Runfa again. People in the industry are happy to see Zhang Weiping's excitement.
"Kristen, you don't really expect this movie to be a hit, do you? Movies are different from novels."
…
"Okay, let's continue recruiting."
"Well, thank you."
"Everyone, please work hard. I have already negotiated with Lionsgate about the release of this movie. You will see it with the entire North American audience."
"Lin, when will your movie premiere?"
Lin Nan took the initiative to hang up the phone and ask everyone to be well.
It's just that Lin Nan delayed it until the end of the award ceremony and sold it to someone else at a high price, not the one in front of him.
When Zhou Yang's call came, it was still night in China.
"Okay, you can afford it."
"Golden Armor" suffered heavy losses, and Zhang Weiping was like a green bull, venting his anger everywhere.
"Before the opening ceremony."
Lin Nan went to the official film festival in person to sign in and rented a large screening room.
The news that Lin Nan appeared in Berlin to promote a new movie spread back to China within a few hours.
I have other plans later..."
"Still more recruiting? But there are already so many."
Catherine looked at the Oriental director in front of her and talked about the current situation of the filming.
"We are currently filming very well. Stephanie will come to see us occasionally. The children are very hardworking."
"You're such a shrewd director, just like you were two years ago."
Jiang Yiyan's development is similar to that of Zhou Yang, but she is better at digging than Zhou Yang, and the drama is still constant. At the premiere press conference of the TV series, she spent time with Lin Nan and Liu Yifei, talked about the friendship between classmates, and did not mention other classmates.
This is also another feature of the International Film Festival that cannot be ignored, the Film Trading Center.
"As for that role, she can almost be regarded as the female lead in "The Prequel of the Lotus Lantern"."
"Not every best-selling youth novel is Harry Potter. Lin, you have to be prepared to lose money."
It takes too long to be released in theaters, and the film sells out quickly, so I have to go in advance.
A European film producer asked, "This is an English film, so that's an extra bonus."
The introduction and brochure of "Buried Alive" were also reported.
Lin Nan looked at Tom in surprise, how much has this guy learned secretly?
"Don't look at me like that. Although I'm usually not serious, when I'm serious, I'm really knowledgeable. In your words, I've learned five things."
Time will make people grow. I don’t know since when, Zhou Yang restrained the bold character of his shareholder Beida Niu.
The school leader said to Tian Zhuangzhuang matter-of-factly.
When I landed in Berlin, I could already feel the atmosphere of the film festival approaching.
"Look at this poster, it looks like a coffin. He is very capable of tossing things around."
"When can I meet with you to talk about copyright issues?"
"Of course it must be formal and give the other party full respect. It may not be beneficial, but it will certainly not be harmful."
"I really envy you, Sissy."
"You have to look at the content of the movie, right? It's definitely not a supernatural movie. I believe in Lin Nan's consciousness."
He and Zhou Runfa started to quarrel again, accusing each other of not cooperating with the publicity.
"Let's recruit, we have such a big office, and there are only a few hundred people there.
When Lin Nan said this, he had an impression. Wasn't the person in front of him someone he had dealt with before?
"What's wrong?"
"Chinese translation: "Buried Alive". Is it so fancy?"
As soon as the promotional sign for "Buried Alive" was placed in the hall, it attracted a lot of attention.
At a glance, you can find movies from all over the world here.
"Buried Alive" is one of them, and the director was the Best Silver Bear Director the year before last.
Seeing that Lin Nan was hesitant to speak, Tom said no more.
Several main actors also gathered around. Lin Nan was a big director to them, and they were all small actors.
"Director Zhao came to see me before, and I just signed the contract today, and there are still some actors who are still undecided."
But as soon as the name of this movie came out, it was indeed very different from Lin Nan's previous style, which inevitably made people think twice.
This is not like the quarrel between Zhang Yimou and Jia Zhangke some time ago, where the General Administration personally came down to persuade them to make peace.
This is the bad thing about the film festival. You have to do the promotion yourself, so Lin Nan directly rented it for half a month, starting from the 1st of next month.
Seeing that evidence, Lin Nan also lamented that Xinghui was really exploiting him. The salary stated in the contract was 769,000, but he was actually only given 60,000. It can only be said that both parties are not good friends.
The result was internal discord among the investors, and the Hong Kong investors refused to let Chow Yun-fat go.
New gossip came out, and the matter of Lin Nan being shortlisted for Berlin cooled down in China.
I heard that this young director is going to Berlin soon. It is really unbelievable that he is competing for the Golden Bear for the second time at such a young age.
…
"Tom, continue to recruit people. We all need technicians and engineers."
At this moment, many media outlets are still making trouble for Zhang Weiping, just waiting to see the joke.
"Have a good performance. Director Yu and the others should start shooting in the second half of the year. Has the contract been signed?"
"Thank you."
Bringing Tom along means letting him work.
"Today, more than 40 film producers have asked for my contact information. Lin, your Silver Bear trophy is really useful."
Tom said with excitement on his face.
Lin Nan ignored Tom. He had just received a call from China Film.
In a few days, their film buying team will come over. This time, Han Sanping will still lead the team. It should be the last time he does this job as a deputy director.
Chapter completed!
