Chapter 203 Premiere Arrangements
The mess in America eventually affected the whole world.
The funniest thing in the industry is that Liu Tao, who had just married into a wealthy family and was ready to take care of her husband and children, ran out to look for a role again.
It was only eight months after she said her bold words of quitting the industry that she was slapped in the face.
I heard that Liu Tao complained in front of many people that Wang Ke was already bankrupt, in debt, and seriously ill...
There were many people in the industry who laughed at her and thought her words were too fake and exaggerated.
But Qin Hailu was really righteous and really helped Liu Tao introduce the crew.
Lin Nan's refusal to participate in the Hundred Flowers Awards has been mentioned from time to time in the past two months.
On the day of the closing ceremony, many actors and stars at the scene were asked about this topic by reporters, and they all hesitated.
Feng Xiaogang was uncharacteristically, "Director Lin Nan is still too young. Maybe she was wronged, but this is also a test, isn't it."
Wow, that night "Assembly" almost monopolized the Hundred Flowers Awards.
Best Feature Film, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Supporting Actor...
The Best Actress award went to Li Bingbing's "Yun Shui Yao".
"No wonder Director Feng's tone has changed. Has he been recruited?"
"Director Feng's tone has changed temporarily. Wait until next time, he will definitely fire back..."
"This year's Hundred Flowers Awards is for Huayi, right?"
The comments online were all one-sided, but they were indeed very appropriate.
Lin Nan got the last round of bids for accompanying advertisements, which was also the highest bid. These big dogs are really rich.
Many stars are in a hurry to hold press conferences because they all endorse a certain milk powder. It's really a man-made disaster...
Several producers of "The Martian" met at China Film.
"The premiere can be prepared." Han Sanping is most concerned about this matter.
Everyone has a consensus that the premiere of "The Martian" cannot be small, after all, it has been two years in the making.
"Why not hold it in the Great Hall?"
Someone from the Aerospace Science and Technology Group suggested.
"Great Hall?"
Everyone's eyes lit up. This location is indeed the most suitable.
"Lin Nan, what do you think?"
"Let's choose the Great Hall. This is the best place I can think of. It is of great significance."
Zhang Yimou's "Hero" and Jackie Chan's "Myth" were both filmed there.
Lin Nan thinks that the current "The Martian" can also be used.
"Should we invite the leaders of the Space Administration?"
"Well, of course we should invite them. The Space Administration also supported the project when it was launched."
After a morning of discussion, the premiere of "The Martian" was completely settled.
In the afternoon, China Film announced this to the media.
The science fiction blockbuster, which took two years and invested 300 million yuan, is finally going to meet the industry.
For the invitation of guests this time, China Film will still refer to the "Painted Skin" that time. Companies and artists in the circle who are not qualified will not be invited.
This news instantly occupied the headlines of major portals.
The news that "Nanjing" had just won the San Sebastian Golden Shell Award was ruthlessly suppressed.
Liu Yifei is already picking clothes and planning what to wear to support Lin Nan that day.
Although she is usually very casual at home, she is definitely not perfunctory in formal occasions, but sometimes she may not have a good eye for choosing clothes.
"Don't bother so much, no matter what you wear, it won't affect your beauty."
"Hehe, you are getting better at speaking now."
…………
"Can we go to the premiere of Lin Nan's "The Martian"?"
In the crew of "Chinese Paladin III", several leading actors were chatting, talking about Lin Nan's movies.
"If you want to go, you need an invitation." Tang Yan answered Yang Mi's question.
Cheng Tian went to the "Painted Skin" before, but Tang Yan was in the crew and couldn't leave.
If nothing unexpected happens this time, she can still go with the company.
"Where is Hu Ge?"
"He will definitely be fine, and he has a good relationship with Director Lin."
After talking about it, Yang Mi found that only she and Liu Shishi had no chance, not to mention those Hong Kong and Taiwan actors.
Such a big occasion is too tempting for actors, connections, resources...
The more Yang Mi thought about it, the more unwilling she became. She took advantage of her break time to go to find Hu Ge.
"What do you want my phone for?"
"Nothing, just borrow it, my phone is out of battery."
After Yang Mi got Hu Ge's phone, she started to look through the address book. She remembered that Hu Ge had talked to Lin Nan on the phone.
"Found it!"
Yang Mi's eyes were shining, and she quickly wrote down the phone number with the words "Lin Nan" on it.
"So fast?" Hu Ge asked with a puzzled look on his face.
"Well, I'm going to rest first." Yang Mi ran away after saying that.
Lin Nan was helping Liu Yifei feed the cats, and the latter was taking a nap.
These little guys were as familiar with Lin Nan as they were with Liu Yifei.
The sound of the phone vibrating startled the cats, and their tails stood up, and then they recovered instantly.
"Still an unfamiliar number? Hello, who is this?"
"Director Lin, this is Yang Mi."
Lin Nan was a little confused, "Where did you get my number?"
"Haha, I got it from Hu Ge. Director Lin, can you give me a copy of the invitation to your movie premiere? I also want to watch your movie..."
Lin Nan really wanted to refuse, but it would be too embarrassing for the other party.
"Okay, just one copy, you can pick it up at school later."
"Okay, thank you senior. Then I won't bother you anymore, and then..."
Before Yang Mi could finish speaking, Lin Nan died.
On the other side, Yang Mi looked at the hung up phone without any dissatisfaction, but saved the number.
"The crew will have a break during the two days at the end of the month."
When Yang Mi came back, she heard the news.
"Are you going to the capital?"
"Yes, Lao Hu and I are going to the premiere of "The Martian", so the crew has to stop work for two days." Tang Yan explained.
Only Liu Shishi looked confused. Tangren Company did not receive an invitation from China Film Group. Only Cai Yinong and Hu Ge had personal invitation letters, so they could not bring her.
"Then let's go together then, I'll go too." Yang Mi smiled.
"Has Rong Xinda received the invitation this time?" Tang Yan asked tentatively.
"No, I asked Director Lin for it."
Yang Mi smiled and said, what other people think is their business.
…………
The actors of "The Martian" have all received notices and must save their schedules to attend the premiere.
Only Zeng Li, Liu Ye and Chen Minghao are in a hurry.
Because the day before the premiere, they had to attend Hu Jing's wedding. The three of them are in Malaysia these days.
Jackie Chan's "Shinjuku Incident" is confirmed to not be released.
It has been rumored that the film will be released at the end of September and will be released on the National Day schedule.
But the latest news is that this movie was not sent for review when it started filming. Therefore, the ban on broadcasting in the mainland is inevitable.
In Er Dongsheng's words, because it was determined from the beginning that it would be impossible to pass the trial, there was no need to submit it to trial.
Lin Nan thinks what Er Dongsheng said is right. In this film, the Chinese in the island country are either gangsters, coolies, or mamasangs who work in hotels.
Even if you say that it is based on real materials, if you really want to send it to the higher authorities for review, the old men and women on the review committee will most likely call it back with the words "harming the image of overseas Chinese".
Originally, Lin Nan planned to take the lead actor on a promotional run, but China Film gave him some advice.
This time, don’t promote it like before.
The Martian is already very popular, so why not keep it a mystery until the premiere?
Lin Nan thinks this idea is very good.
This movie has been attracting attention since it was shot, so let the audience go to the theater with a sense of anticipation.
Many media and TV stations have been waiting for so long in vain, thinking that they would have an interview for "The Martian".
Chen Kaige's "Mei Lanfang" did not catch up with the Olympics, but the great director's influence is still very stable.
"Masterpiece".
This is the evaluation of Chen Kaige's movie by the Mei family.
It even promised that it would no longer authorize anyone else to film Mei Lanfang’s story for at least 50 years.
This reminds the film and television industry of that movie again. Is this another "Farewell My Concubine"?
Wen Ziren's phone call came.
"James, you rarely make cross-country calls to me, haha."
"Lin, I'm on vacation recently. I heard that your movie is going to premiere?"
"Yes. What, are you coming over?" Lin Nan smiled.
“It’s a dream come true, it’s just the right time to travel.”
Lin Nan felt that Wen Ziren had something to say.
Sure enough, after chatting for a long time, Wen Ziren spoke.
"Insidious 2 didn't meet its revenue targets, but the company isn't ready to give up on the idea of a big-budget horror film.
I want to take advantage of this time to make "Happy Death Day 2". What do you think? "
It has been almost two years since "Happy Death Day 1" was put on the agenda. It is not good to wait too long between the series.
"Okay. Then when you come over, we will discuss the investment division this time."
"Well, see you at your premiere."
Wen Ziren is also a straight-tempered person. He hangs up after talking about the business, and he is not reserved at all.
A poster for "The Martian" hangs on Nortel's publicity board.
Jing Tian, a sophomore student, stood out when he appeared inside.
There are no students in the performance department who are not jealous and envious.
Looking at the acting department in the past few years, except for the one in level 02, it is Jing Tian.
Other students, not to mention movies, have very few TV series to offer, and their resources are too meager.
"We can't envy this kind of big-budget movie."
In the eyes of many students, Jing Tian is also the kind of student who rarely comes to school, but seems to have no shortage of film and television resources.
This made everyone think of Liu Yifei inexplicably.
"Li Mi's Conjecture" ended its release with a stumbling block, but it was successfully completed and the final box office revenue was 14 million.
The latest film advisory has been published in the media.
""Li Mi's Conjecture" has a strong literary and artistic flavor, but it is difficult to compete with commercial blockbusters."
"After "Blind Mountain", director Lin Nan once again lost money and made money..."
…
On the 25th, Shenzhou VII successfully took off.
Chinese people successfully conducted a space walk for the first time.
The blessing effect of this on "The Martian" is unparalleled.
The statement made when the movie was originally planned and filmed was once again found out by the media.
"...The fact that we can't go to Mars now doesn't mean that we won't be able to go to Mars in five, ten, or twenty years. We will land on the moon, have our own space station, spaceship, and Mars probe..."
The Internet is abuzz.
"Is this movie a prophecy?"
"I have to go to the cinema to see it..."
