That year Huayu

"The Dragon King" was released for 23 days, with a total box office of 570 million, but the daily box office fell completely below 2 million.

Just when everyone in the industry thought that the box office would definitely stop at the 600 million threshold, which was a bit regretful, Huayi's operation made everyone's eyes shine.

In order for this movie to successfully pass the 600 million mark, Hua Yi rarely spent a lot of effort and money.

Wang Zhonglei went back and forth to the film bureau several times for several days in a row, and then he successfully applied for an extension key. It was not easy, as he had always been rejected before.

The release date of "The Dragon King" has also been postponed from the 27th of the end of the month to the 10th of next month, giving it an extra two weeks of release time.

This is just a normal method. The most cruel thing is that Huayi took the initiative to lower the bill sharing ratio with the theaters.

It was announced that from October 21st to the end of the movie, the company will only get 30% of the box office revenue in these twenty days, while the theaters can get 70%.

Huayi is trying to gain sufficient support from theaters in arranging films by directly giving away 13% of the divisible box office within 20 days.

Companies in the industry can see that the theater chain will definitely not lose money, but Huayi will definitely make a profit.

Because once the box office of "Shendu Dragon King" reaches 600 million, it will be completely different.

The extra box office is nothing at all. The real big deal comes from the soaring stock price.

Of course Lin Nan is also happy to see the results, which is also a good thing for him.

“I’m cursing and cursing, and this is over 100 million?”

The news of "Special Identity" caught Lin Nan's eyes.

After seven days, relying on black and red, the box office of this movie successfully exceeded 100 million.

Although the movie is destined to lose money, Xingguang Glancing is still working hard to promote Jing Tian.

Because this time the blame cannot be placed on Jing Tian at all. Instead, a large number of netizens are still sympathizing with her and being tricked by Zhen Zidan's team.

The one that has suffered the greatest negative impact is undoubtedly the "Zhen Kung Fu" that was talked about in front of the media before the movie was released. Now its true colors have been completely revealed.

Since "Ip Man 2", all the movies he starred in, just like before "Ip Man 1", were made in such a way that one was made at a loss, and there was no one that did not lose money, or even more.

The title of "box office poison" was once again attached to Donnie Yen by the industry. In just one week, his net worth plummeted and he fell into the second tier.

But maybe in Zhen Zi's eyes, he still has one last chance to make a comeback.

That is the 3D mythical blockbuster "Journey to the West: Havoc in Heaven", which has been scheduled for the Spring Festival in the past two days, with a claimed investment of 500 million and a production cycle of 3 years, in which Donnie Yen plays Sun Wukong.

Lin Nan knew that this movie would also be one of the competitors of "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom", but he was not lying.

Seeing that the Lunar New Year holiday is not far away, many films in the period have begun to prepare for movie promotion.

Ye Ning's call went directly to Lin Nan.

"Director Lin, "New Police Story 2013" is going to hold a press conference. Would you like to take the time to come over?"

"Media meeting? It doesn't need to be so laborious, right? I'll let other people from the company go there."

Lin Nan thought for a while and chose to refuse. Isn't this killing a chicken with a knife?

"Okay, then let Director Yue come over?"

"Can."

Lin Nan hung up the phone and left the office, preparing to go home.

"Inform Director Yue and ask him to represent the company at the media meeting for "New Police Story 2013."

"Okay, Director Lin."

…………

Since the filming of "Interstellar" was completed at the beginning of the month, Liu Yifei has been "decadent" and spent about 20 days of leisurely life.

Finally today, she took part in a talk show on a whim. In her words: "It was just like going out for a walk and going for a drive."

When Lin Nan came back, Liu Yifei was sitting on the sofa applying nail polish carefully.

There are already some conspicuous touches of rose color on the white bare feet, which is full of girlishness.

Not daring to disturb her, Lin Nan's voice became softer, "Do you want me to help?"

"No, you painted it wrong last time." Liu Yifei raised her head, rolled her eyes, and decisively refused.

"Haha, it's not like you said it was itchy and kept moving..."

Looking at the "murderous" look in his eyes, Lin Nan smiled and closed his mouth.

"I went to the movie channel today and talked about the crew and some things related to "Interstellar". They said, when can we go together?"

Liu Yifei suddenly put on a smile and looked at Lin Nan with expectation in her expression.

"Together? That's a good idea. It seems like the two of us have never been on a show together!"

Lin Nan nodded and said with certainty.

The main reason is that he rarely participates in talk shows. He has gone to movie channels many times before to promote movies.

"Well, next time I have a chance, I'll join you."

Hearing this, the smile on Liu Yifei's face became even brighter, she nodded happily and continued to apply nail polish.

As soon as Lin Nan sat down next to Miss Liu, a call came from Wang Changtian.

"Director Wang, Director Han used to like to make phone calls after get off work in the afternoon, why do you do the same now?" Lin Nan complained.

"Haha, let me tell you, "The Breakup Master" is about to be finished."

"What?" Lin Nan thought there was something wrong with his ears.

How long has it been? How many days is left until a month? Is this going to be finalized?

"You heard it right, Deng Chao's "The Breakup Master" will be finished in the next two days." Wang Changtian repeated it again.

"Isn't this too fast?"

After saying this, Lin Nan immediately realized that his mind had not turned around again. He thought of the other party's movies as "serious" movies again.

Wang Changtian smiled, changed the subject, and talked about the main purpose of the call:

"Ask Ning Hao when Zhao Liying's scenes will be completed and come back as soon as possible to promote."

There is no need to ask this question again, Lin Nan answered directly:

"It will probably look like the middle to late next month. I told Ning Hao to adjust the shooting sequence and finish Zhao Liying's scenes as soon as possible."

"Well, that's good, that's good." After getting the answer he wanted, Wang Changtian didn't talk much and hung up after a while.

"A commercial film was almost shot in twenty days?"

Liu Yifei, who had finished applying nail polish, looked at Lin Nan and asked in shock.

You must know that Lin Nan's fastest commercial film was "Taking Tiger Mountain by Wisdom", but it also took a month.

Moreover, preparations were started more than 30 days in advance, nearly 300 people were used, and Lin Nan and Guo Fan were filmed in two lines, which greatly shortened the time.

"It's normal, a low-budget comedy, and I don't pursue acting skills. The script is also a patchwork of various jokes, so of course it's fast.

It might be a hit, but forget about word-of-mouth, which can only be bad or worse. Lin Nan said with certainty.

…………

Another two days passed in the blink of an eye.

Many people in the industry posted the invitation to Zhu Yawen's wedding on Weibo. After all, it was an A-list actor getting married, and he was also Lin Nan's best friend.

"According to insiders, director Lin Nan and Luo Jin, two classmates, will serve as best men at Zhu Yawen's wedding. This is also the first time that the two have served as best men."

"At that time, in addition to many actors and actresses in the circle, all members of the 02-level Nortel Performance Department will also be present to participate in the wedding. This will be the first time that the 02-level acting department will reunite seven years after graduation..."

…

"Your uncle, I will be your best man. It's fine if you don't help me with the clothes. You also asked me to dress low-key so as not to steal your limelight?"

Lin Nan took the phone and shouted cursingly in the garden. Zhu Yawen, this bitch, is just kicking his nose in the face.

"My Director Lin, who makes you a great director? Once you stop there, not only reporters, but also people in the industry may only see you. Brother, when I get married, of course I will be the protagonist! Hahaha …”

It was so reasonable that Lin Nan couldn't refute it, but he changed the topic and replied:

"You only sent one invitation, so Yifei and I can only give you one share of the money."

"Oh, no, I'll give you a replacement..."

Before Zhu Yawen could finish speaking, Lin Nan hung up directly: "Haha, you're so cute."

The news of the "New Police Story 2013" media meeting was also reported.

Jing Tian plays Jackie Chan's daughter in the movie. When the latter was interviewed by the media and talked about the love of parents for their children, something went wrong.

I don’t know whether the eldest brother was feeling it or just following his words. He actually mentioned his "little dragon girl" very rarely and showed great apologies and guilt.

But when reporters continued to ask questions, he quickly changed the topic to his son, wife and parents.

At this moment, everyone on the Internet is talking about this matter. Is the eldest brother planning to leave property to his "illegitimate daughter"?

But it’s hard to say whether the original wife will agree to it or not. That person is also a powerful person!

…………

Liu Yifei was already preparing a dress for Zhu Yawen's wedding banquet, and even asked Lin Nan if she wanted to ask someone to order clothes for him.

"No need, just wear whatever you want. If you steal his limelight, don't you get angry with me?"

"Haha, you two."

Lin Nan watched Liu Yifei's slim figure walking back and forth in the cloakroom, choosing clothes, and it was very pleasing to the eye.

However, Yue Jun's call broke his state of mind.

"Director Lin, do you have time there? You may need to go back to the company."

Lin Nan and Liu Yifei signaled that they should wait downstairs first. Miss Liu waved her hand: "Well, you can go ahead."

"What's the matter, do you want me to go back?"

"Producer Hou Hongliang of Noon Sunshine is here and wants to see you."

Lin Nan was impressed when he heard the name of the company.

This company was just established the year before last, and almost all of its staff came from Shanying, a long-established state-owned enterprise specializing in the production of TV series.

Hou Hongliang is also a well-known figure in the TV drama circle and a veteran of Shanying.

"Are there people in the company now? How many are there?"

"Yes, producer Hou Hongliang is with an assistant at the company."

"Okay, you entertain them first, I'll be there in a moment."

"Okay, Director Lin."

Lin Nan looked at the people on the second floor and shouted: "Sissi, I'm going back to the company."

"Are you coming back for lunch? Mom and the nanny will be back soon."

"No need to wait for me."

…

Lin Nan drove the car and headed straight to the company.

To be honest, Lin Nan Pictures has never had any dealings with this company, which was established less than two years ago.

Even though the other person is an old man in the film and television industry, we have only met each other on some large occasions, and we are just acquaintances at most.

In fact, the person with whom Lin Nan Pictures is most familiar is probably Jiang Yuanrou. After all, she used to be in the TV drama industry.

"Producer Hou, you drink tea first. Director Lin has just set off. It should take more than half an hour to arrive."

Yue Jun sat opposite Hou Hongliang, smiling and making a gesture of invitation.

"Director Yue, you're welcome. I came today to ask for something."

Almost everyone in the industry knows about the butler of Lin Nan Pictures.

While Hou Hongliang was talking, he looked squarely at the person in front of him: Yue Jun, a graduate of Nortel School of Management, majoring in production and marketing. He was originally an unknown person in the Qingying Film Studio. Since he followed Lin Nan, he has completely taken off. Soaring to the sky!

Hou Hongliang came here today with a mission. Noon Sunshine has been established for more than a year, and it is in urgent need of works to open up the situation.

It was hard to find some high-quality stuff, but when I inquired about it, I found out that Lin Nan Pictures had already taken advantage of it at the beginning of the year!

…………

During this period, my work and rest schedules were indeed disrupted. After staying up all night, you won't be able to regain your energy. There will most likely be only one chapter today.
