Chapter 724 If that Day Comes, I Will Probably Quit
Yawning, Lin Nan and several assistants followed the crowd and walked toward the airport exit.
Thanks to Miss Liu's squeeze last night, Lin Nan was able to sleep soundly for nearly 9 hours during the 12-hour flight.
"Director Lin, didn't you see the pick-up car?"
Standing outside the airport, looking at the yellow taxis and other private cars coming and going, Lin Nan also couldn't find the Crystal Pictures car!
"What's wrong with this Tom?"
Just when Lin Nan took out his mobile phone and was about to make a call, a black Maybach stopped in front of Lin Nan, followed by three high-end Mercedes-Benz.
The driver's window opened, and it was Tom's round face that was more than one centimeter longer in diameter!
"Haha, Lin, are you surprised? I changed my car!"
"Surprise? I'm a little surprised."
Looking at Tom's face, Lin Nan was really speechless. It's really time to change cars. I'm afraid the driver's seat of the previous car can't accommodate him, right?
"Get in the car, I've also changed the car for the company!"
Tom ran down in a hurry and opened the back door for Lin Nan with a wicked smile on his face.
Lin Nan smiled helplessly, Tom was good at everything, but with this figure... he had no willpower at all.
"Well, let's go."
All five people in the group got on the bus. Of course, there are only two people in the Maybach, Tom and Lin Nan.
On the way back, Tom started chattering.
"Lin, you are the favorite for this year's Golden Globes and Oscars. When I attended the event, many people were asking about you.
In addition, many big companies are asking whether Crystal Pictures needs new partners..."
partner?
When Tom said the last sentence, his tone was a bit complicated.
Of course Lin Nan knew what this "partner" meant, that is, a new shareholder.
Over the years, Crystal Pictures has become somewhat famous in Hollywood, and at least it is very profitable.
In addition, Lin Nan's boss is also a well-known director, and "The Invisible Guest" has proven his box office performance in the North American market in addition to awards.
Therefore, Crystal Pictures naturally becomes a delicious cake, and it is a cake with great potential and purity!
"We don't need new partners, the cooperation with Lionsgate is good, and so is Warner.
If one day Crystal Pictures really has new shareholders, there is only one possibility. Lin Nan joked with interest.
"What's possible?" Tom wondered.
"I am no longer the boss of Crystal Pictures. If that day comes, I will probably quit."
There was silence in the car, and then Tom laughed loudly.
"Lin, this joke is not funny, really."
"Then what are you laughing at? Haha..."
"Well, I'm hiding my embarrassment."
Tom said simply. Along the way, he never mentioned the company again.
Most of all, we talk about Leonardo, Jessica Chastain and others, saying that they worked very hard when they attended the "Manchester by the Sea" public relations reception!
After all, looking at it this way, "Manchester by the Sea" will be closer to winning the best actor and best actress trophies than "The Invisible Guest".
“By the way, Matt seems to be receiving physical and martial arts training from Legend, and he only came to the PR party twice.
However, he came with a little girl with black hair, saying she was your sister or a friend, I forgot..."
"Jingtian?"
"Uh, yes, that's the name. It's very cultured. Just like Crystal..."
Lin Nan smiled and said nothing.
…
During the awards season, Hollywood gathers a large number of internationally renowned actors and stars, and movie posters and stills are everywhere.
Even here, Lin Nan is not an unknown figure, but a big director - a strong contender for the Golden Globe and Oscar!
Less than two hours after his appearance, word spread here.
Sitting in the office on the third floor of Crystal Pictures, Lin Nan's phone never went off.
Leonardo's, Jessica's, Naomi Watts's, James Wan's, Li An's, Nolan's, Ryan Reynolds, Zhang Ziyi...
Even some ordinary friends, such as Scarlett Johansson, Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway and others, also sent text messages.
Lin Nan knows that the reason why these ordinary friends can take the initiative to greet him is basically because he has been nominated for 6 Golden Globe Awards and is a favorite for the Golden Globe and Oscar!
"Lin, all the movie CDs that were sent are here. But I have asked everyone to share the small gifts that came with them."
Looking at the fifty or so movie copies stacked on his desk, Lin Nan felt a little dizzy. He can't really go through them one by one, can he?
"Well, forget it. Tom, you can write it for me in the empty space on this nomination ballot. I don't have time to watch these movies. I'll take it to the academy by the way."
"No problem. I've been to most of the movie receptions here..."
Tom said with a stern look on his face, his fat trembling, making Lin Nan shake his head.
“When is the next Oscar PR?”
"The morning after tomorrow. But since you showed up, there will definitely be many producers of other movies coming to invite you. After all, you are also a member of the Academy."
Lin Nan was mentally prepared for this matter, "I know, just go with it."
During the day, Lin Nan stayed at Crystal Pictures.
It was just like Tom said, from time to time someone sent an invitation letter to the company, naming him!
"Oh, I remember. Interstellar also applied for the Oscars, although they were all technical awards..."
Lin Nan accidentally saw one of the copies of the movie, and realized it later.
He quickly told Tom to write "Interstellar" on all the empty positions on the nomination ballot.
"So, it is still possible for Sissi to walk the Oscar red carpet with the Interstellar crew? Double guarantee, producer Liu!"
Lin Nan smiled to himself, opened the safe here casually, and took out a script from it.
...
"Do we have a lot of training arrangements for the day after tomorrow?"
Matt Damon put down the prop sword in his hand and asked one of the coaches.
Many actors looked over. Everyone was training together, and it was also for the film to officially start shooting, so that they could have a tacit understanding.
Even actors who don't have action scenes have to participate in physical training and English line training, because "The Great Wall" is a pure English film.
"What do you have to do, Matt?"
"There will be a PR reception for "Manchester by the Sea" the day after tomorrow. This morning, Lin has arrived in Hollywood. I thought if the training volume is less, I won't come."
Matt Damon said bluntly. His physical fitness is relatively good, and his lines are no problem, so there is certainly much less to practice.
"Lin?" The person in charge of Legend muttered.
Jing Tian, Liu Dehua, Zhang Hanyu and others on the side were all refreshed.
"Brother Lin Nan..."
"Director Lin is here?
"Director Lin!"
"Director Lin has won six Golden Globe nominations this time, a hot favorite!"
...
"Matt, we will rest the day after tomorrow. This is a new arrangement, and I am preparing to notify everyone. "
Hearing this, not only Matt Damon smiled, but Jing Tian, Liu Dehua and others also smiled.
"It's just right, let's go meet Director Lin together?" Liu Dehua joked.
"Yeah, yeah." Jing Tian nodded, his eyes rolling.
