Chapter 375 Guidance, Shu Chang

When Lin Nan was woken up by Liu Yifei, he was confused.

"The script was killed?"

"Well, everyone knows that "Genius Gunner" was called back. What should we do now?"

Liu Yifei said with a grimace.

She had just finished reading the script and was filled with joy. As a result, I received many calls from acquaintances, all talking about this matter.

"Oh, I have a headache."

Lin Nan was stunned for a while, and then took Liu Yifei's laptop over.

The news on the Internet is indeed very lively, full of speculations about "Genius Gunslinger".

There are already a lot of messages on Lin Nan and the company's Weibo, including Liu Yifei's.

Many people in the industry also came forward to join in the fun, such as Feng Xiaogang:

"According to my experience, most of the scripts that can be rejected in one go are good scripts, especially those written by well-known directors."

…

"I believe that Lin Nan will not encounter anything that has incorrect views or is irrelevant. So, I support him!"

Lin Nan wanted to laugh when she saw Jiang Wen's Weibo. When it comes to brushing aside, he feels ashamed in front of Jiang Wen!

Liu Yifei sat on the edge, scrolling through Lin Nan's missed calls.

"Dr. Han's, Mr. Ye, Mr. Wang, Shanghai Film, Xiying, Ning Hao... there are several others who haven't made a note. Do you want to call me back?"

Taking the mobile phone from Miss Liu, Lin Nan shook his head:

“Forget it if you all call them back, I’ll go ask the Children’s Bureau what they say.

I hope it's not like being beaten to death with a stick. Lin Nan looked at Miss Liu and said with a wry smile.

Liu Yifei bit her lips and suddenly became a little frustrated.

"Well, I believe it won't be."

…

…

The outside world was very lively, and most people in the industry did not expect to know about Lin Nan's new movie in this way.

Wudang Mountain.

"Now that I think about it, you are really lucky to have chosen "Love in Seattle." Just by hearing the name, you can tell that it is a romance film, and there is absolutely no chance that it will fail the review."

During the crew's break, Zeng Jia secretly said to Yang Mi.

The latter was not as happy as Zeng Jia imagined, but instead felt a little envious or regretful?

"What's wrong with you? There's nothing wrong with "Love in Seattle". You should be happy."

"Of course I'm happy. But have you ever thought about the fact that the script written by Director Lin specifically for Liu Yifei was rejected? What does this mean?"

"What does it mean?" Zeng Jia asked subconsciously.

"It means the script must be very good. The content will most likely touch on certain points, maybe realistic themes or sensitive topics. This is much more influential than a romance movie!"

Zeng Jia nodded blankly. Sometimes Yang Mi is really smart and reacts quickly!

"No matter how good the script is, it doesn't matter to us. Let's see how Director Lin handles it."

"Well, I guess he will find a way to pass the review!" Yang Mi affirmed.

…………

Those in charge of film review have started acting like monsters again.

When Ning Hao's "No Man's Land" was rejected again and again, someone from the review committee posted a post on Weibo, ridiculing it.

It is said that Ning Hao was immersed, lost and narcissistic in the honors of "Stone" and "Racing", unable to extricate himself and unable to see the reality clearly...

At this moment, Lin Nan was given the same treatment.

“Some young directors, relying on their past achievements and awards, always think that they can test the bottom line of film review.

He doesn't consider at all what negative impact his script will have on society and how many children he will teach.

What story are you telling? What appeal do you want to express? What are you insinuating? Young people, it’s better to take it easy! "

…

Good guy, the movie industry is completely exploded now!

"What on earth did Director Lin write in his script? How could he be so targeted by those old guys!"

"The more I say this, the more I think Lin Nan's script is better!"

"Who was the last person to be targeted like this?"

"Ning Hao, Feng Xiaogang, Jiang Wen...all the great directors seem to have been 'criticized' by name."

…

"Gunner? Could it be that he failed the college entrance examination?!"

"I want to star in Director Lin's new film..."

…

Film Bureau.

Lin Nan had a gloomy face at the moment. He saw the posts of some people from the review committee on Weibo.

These people rely on their old age and pretend to be ignorant, and their words will fall on deaf ears.

"Tong Bureau, you can't wear such a big hat randomly! What I'm photographing is not a domestic exam.

What else do I want to express? What am I insinuating?

They are completely shameless and picky..."

Tong Gang took the time to meet Lin Nan. After all, he had said he would help before, but who knew that those people would kill him first and then tell him.

"It stands to reason that the background and content of your story really have nothing to do with the mainland, which is why I thought I could give it a try.

But you have to know that we are also a country that is big on examinations. If you can get in touch with us even a little bit, you may be used to make trouble. "

"Qingfeng can't read, why bother flipping through books?"

Hearing Tong Gang's words, Lin Nan couldn't help but joke.

"That's it." Tong Gang said angrily.

"You have also read the script. The ending is completely just. Those who surrender surrender and those who are arrested are arrested. It also reflects the reality of the gap between rich and poor.

Why can't we look at it from a positive perspective? This movie can warn and alert those real cases in reality and people who have these thoughts..."

Lin Nan spoke in an orderly manner. He didn't want the script to be cut off in one fell swoop, that would be a pity.

Tong Gang nodded. He thought the script was still very good. The troublesome thing now was the "influence". This matter could be big or small, just by one's mouth.

After a long time, Tong Gang looked at Lin Nan:

"How about this, you go back and revise the script, change the native places of all the characters, and change the shooting location. Avoid all that should be avoided.

Add warning content to the back of the script, mark it with emphasis, and it will be cut into the film..."

"Not only is the story background in Hong Kong Island, but the shooting location is also moved there?"

"Yes, you can leave a few shots to shoot in the mainland, so that it can still be considered a mainland production."

Lin Nan knew that this should be the only way now. Making it an imported film would only be more troublesome.

"Are you sure that if I make this change, it will pass the next review?"

"Go ahead and make the change. Don't send the script to the review office this time. Bring it directly to my office..."

Hearing this, Lin Nan understood instantly, "I understand. Thank you, Director Tong."

…………

When Lin Nan left the Film Bureau, he was blocked by many media.

"Director Lin, are you here today because of "Bad Genius"? Is there any chance for the script to turn around?"

"After listening to Director Tong's guidance today, I will revise the script."

"Can you reveal the content of the script?"

"No, it needs to be kept confidential."

In less than an hour, new news came out again in the circle.

"Director Lin's new movie still has room for maneuver, and the script has been revised."

"The script of "Bad Genius" will be revised and will be submitted for review again soon..."

……

The actors in the industry were very excited.

It seems that Lin Nan's new movie is stable. As long as there is a chance to revise it, it means that it will pass in the end with a high probability.

"You can start asking for casting news!"

...

Lin Nan did not return to the villa. After calling Liu Yifei to tell her about this, he went to the company.

Originally, he was thinking of choosing Beijing Film Academy as the filming location.

But now, he has to consider a new filming location, and he has to ask others for help in Hong Kong Island.

Tom's overseas call came in, and it should be midnight there.

But judging from this guy's current behavior, he is probably attending a cocktail party, after all, the award season is here.

"Lin, I heard that your movie script was rejected? You might as well come here to shoot an English movie.

I just met Leon, and he asked me to remind you that you still owe him a script..."

"Don't talk so much nonsense, let's talk business."

Lin Nan listened to the faint party sounds over there, and knew that he had guessed right.

"Okay, James agreed to a 40% investment share, the contract has been signed, and we are doing the preparations before the start of filming these two days."

"What's the budget?"

"James wants 16 million dollars, but our team thinks it can be reduced to 12 million dollars."

"Okay, very good."

Lin Nan was mentally prepared for the budget of "The Conjuring". It was already very impressive to be able to reduce it to 12 million.

"That's it, tell Leon for me that I haven't forgotten about the script."

"Okay, Lin."

…………

The news that "Bad Genius" will revise the script and resubmit it for review has spread in the circle.

Some things can't be avoided, such as inquiries from several cooperative companies.

"There are not many roles this time, and there are no fancy special effects. It's all about the plot, so the investment is not large."

Han Sanping, Wang Changtian, Ye Ning and others heard this sentence one after another, and immediately understood what Lin Nan meant.

That is to say, Lin Nan Pictures will not accept investment from other companies for this movie, and is ready to do it itself.

"What about casting?" Ye Ning asked before hanging up the phone.

"There will be no public auditions. We'll talk about it later."

"Okay, I understand."

When Yang Shoucheng called, Lin Nan also subconsciously thought that he would ask about investment or casting, but it turned out not to be the case.

"If Director Lin comes to Hong Kong Island to shoot a new movie, you can tell me, Ying Huang will try his best to help..."

"Good guy, you are worthy of being an old fox! You can even guess this." Lin Nan muttered to himself.

I will definitely not refuse, "Wait a few days, if it goes well, I will contact Director Yang."

As soon as Lin Nan finished speaking, laughter came from the other side.

"Hahaha, good. If Director Lin comes, I will definitely hold a banquet for you..."

It can be heard that Lin Nan's reply made Yang Shoucheng very happy.

After hanging up the phone, Lin Nan shook his head helplessly, "I guess he is going to Hong Kong Island."

…………

When returning to the villa, there was a figure on Liu Yifei's side.

"Hehe, who is this? He looks unfamiliar."

"Xixi, look at him."

Shu Chang hugged Liu Yifei's arm and pretended to be pitiful.

"You asked, and I'll help you here."

Liu Yifei said cunningly, turning away from Shu Chang and winking at Lin Nan.

Shu Chang immediately put on a smiling face, "Brother, let's discuss something."
