Chapter 739: Association, Spineless?

After the Golden Globe Awards ceremony, Hollywood has entered late night.

Except for the crew parties that continued to party, most people, like Lin Nan and Liu Yifei, were relaxing and enjoying their dreams.

But this is not the case here in China, it is daytime. The entire film and television industry, entertainment circle, major media and even the entire Internet are still in a state of restlessness.

The results of the Golden Globe Awards will undoubtedly have a huge impact on the Chinese film industry!

"Best Director Golden Globe Award! Directors Lin and Chen are currently the only two top mainland directors to win the Golden Globe Award! There is a 32-year age difference between them!"

"One movie has won four awards. This is Director Lin's pinnacle. Everyone in the cast and crew has a share, including the director, best actor, best actress, and best supporting actor! Even Yifei has a Golden Globe gift. I'm really jealous. very sour……"

"When Director Lin and Yifei come back in the next two days, we have to treat them to a treat and give the rich man a good beating!"

"Golden Ball, Berlin, Oscar, this is a good start! What's next? Tsk tsk, I don't dare to think about it, I don't dare to think about it..."

"I passed by Beijing Circuit today and it made me laugh to death, hahaha..."

"What's wrong? The banner has been pulled up?"

"Not only that, Director Lin's full-length photos holding the Golden Globe Award and certificate are all hanging on the official website, and large posters have also been released! A living sign..."

"Is the director's circle very quiet?"

"It's only been two hours, so it must be quiet. But how could the media miss the opportunity to 'incite hatred' for Director Lin? It's completely impossible!"

"I don't know when Director Lin's next film will be released? Maybe it will be the new film of the Oscar-winning best director..."

"Uh..., I have to talk to Yifei and ask her to help me blow my pillow!"

"Brother Xun reacts very quickly! I'll go too..."

…

When the sun rises at eight in the morning, Hollywood isn't deserted after last night's Golden Globes curtain call.

On the contrary, the atmosphere of awards season has reached a new level and is even more exciting.

Because if nothing else happens, the Oscar nominations will be announced in the next two days.

Looking at the golden Golden Globe trophy on the bedside table and the certificate pressed under the base, Lin Nan felt an indescribable sense of satisfaction.

"Sissi, would you like to get up and go out for a walk with me?"

"No, don't disturb me..."

Liu Yifei replied to Lin Nan without even opening her eyes, her soft and waxy nasal voice was pleasant to the ear. Then she tightened the quilt again, covering her delicate collarbones and smooth shoulders.

"Let me sleep a little longer. At noon...call me for dinner..."

"Okay, then you can go back to sleep."

Lin Nan smiled silently, got dressed and washed up.

The Hollywood media is frantically reporting on the news about last night's awards ceremony. One night passed, Lin Nan and the crew of "Manchester by the Sea" were already famous figures and the center of attention.

Not to mention domestically, after the phone is turned on, the vibration that lasts for two or three minutes is enough to explain the problem, all of which are message reminders.

More than an hour later, Lin Nan met Zhang Yimou and others at Crystal Pictures. They came to congratulate Lin Nan on winning the award and visit the company.

"I bought Crystal Pictures in April 2006, and it will be nine years ago now."

Lin Nan took Zhang Yimou, Liu Dehua, Jing Tian, ​​and Zhang Hanyu to visit the first and second floors for a long time before finally going up to the third floor and entering the office.

Several people were quite shocked by the scale of Crystal Pictures. This is not an ordinary small business at all, it can definitely be regarded as a medium-to-large production company.

"The industry basically assumes that you are the boss of this company, but when you were interviewed by the media, you said that you only owned 55% of the shares. Why are you so candid and open today?"

Zhang Yimou took the tea brought by his assistant and joked with a smile. Liu Dehua and Jing Tian also looked surprised and surprised.

"Because now I am confident that I have the strength and confidence to hold on to this company. Director Zhang, what do you think?" Lin Nan smiled pointedly.

"Well, at that time, it was really not suitable for me to be public. A young filmmaker from the Mainland had a well-developed Hollywood film company..."

Everyone in the office understood this. Isn't it just children holding gold through the market? Lin Nan at that time was not Lin Nan now.

While chatting, Zhang Yimou revealed his flight back to China. What a coincidence, it was the same flight as Lin Nan and Liu Yifei, that is, tomorrow morning.

He went back to prepare for the location, while the leading actors will not be able to return to China until the end of February.

More than an hour later, Lin Nan sent several people downstairs. Seeing acquaintances in a foreign country always makes you feel friendly.

"Director Lin, I wish "Manchester by the Sea" has the same Oscar nominations as the Golden Globes, the more the better, and finally wins the trophy."

Liu Dehua always maintains a high emotional intelligence and a smile on his face.

"Brother Lin, I wish you another victory." Jing Tian followed behind, shouting with a smile on his face.

"Thank you. When "The Great Wall" starts filming, I will visit your class."

After seeing off a few people, Lin Nan looked at Tom, who had always wanted to say something.

"What's wrong?"

"Lin, on the 5th of next month, "Manchester by the Sea" will have its world premiere as the opening film of the Berlin International Film Festival.

Will you sell the rights after that or release it to the public? Or, like "The Invisible Guest", sell the rights except for North America and China? "

Hearing this, Lin Nan really felt a little worried.

It is definitely necessary to bring the film back to China for screening in batches, after all, it is the film that won the award. But in the European and American markets?

"Tom, what do you think of Manchester by the Sea?"

"It's great, but will it be too depressing? It's hard to judge the box office."

This is really a revelation. Lin Nan muttered to himself.

"Then sell the copyright, except for the copyright for the Chinese-language film market."

"Hmm? Good! I will take people to Berlin in advance at the end of this month."

…………

Since the morning, Hollywood has been sending invitations to cocktail parties and parties to Lin Nan and Liu Yifei, but both of them declined them.

Because there is only one afternoon left, they don't want to be busy with such social activities. It's better to stay at home to pack up their luggage, spend time alone, and prepare to return home.

When they came to Hollywood, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei had a big team, with 10 assistants and bodyguards.

Now that they have won the award, a group of people will look more impressive when they go back, instead of "returning in disgrace" after getting nothing.

"They are really something. They just flooded my Weibo. But, Lin Nan, do you want to read the domestic news?"

In the evening, Liu Yifei sat in the living room, holding a tablet in her hand, enjoying the fireworks show outside the floor-to-ceiling window while chatting with Lin Nan.

Director Lin was packing the most important gains of his trip - the Golden Globe Award and certificate for Best Director.

"What's wrong?"

"Many domestic directors have been interviewed about you winning the Golden Globe Award. There are also many...many people that you and Directors Ning Hao and Jiang Wen often belittle..."

"Huh? Those, those old guys?"

Lin Nan stopped what he was doing, walked up to Liu Yifei with a teasing look on his face, and took the tablet.

"Come, let me see what these people are talking about?"

"Don't say dirty words!"

Liu Yifei frowned and looked at Lin Nan, with a fierce expression.

"Okay, I can't help it."

Lin Nan smiled and squeezed next to Miss Liu and looked through the news. "Oh, this time, it's really different from before?"

If you ask which awards the mainland film industry is most obsessed with, it is undoubtedly the Golden Globe and the Oscar, the latter is more than the former.

"Don't ask me about Lin Nan, I'm so tired. I can't be friends with him in the future. The gap is getting bigger and bigger, and more and more unequal. This beast, really a beast..."

"Won the Golden Globe for Best Director? Damn it, I said that we should be brave and fight while we are young, but I didn't let him do it for real? Where will I put my face when we meet in the future? I don't have those awards! Cut this part off and start over, hahaha..."

"Well, congratulations to him. I still have to prepare for the next scene, so I won't say more."

"I saw the news, it's okay, not bad. I have something to do with "The Taoist Goes Down the Mountain", so let's stop here."

"It's pretty good to follow Director Lin. He is a big shot, and I'm just a small director working part-time. I'm very happy, very happy. Because the bigger the big shot, the better. It's getting thicker and thicker...Guo Fan? He's busy with "Go Away! Tumor King", it's normal that you can't find him..."

...

"As the youngest and internationally renowned Chinese director in China, we sincerely congratulate him on winning the Golden Globe Award for Best Director, and wish him success in Berlin and the Oscars.

The Film Association is a big family in the film industry, and we sincerely hope that he can go home. In addition, major associations such as the Directors Association, the Screenwriters Association, and the Producers Association also hope that he can join..."

Looking at the hot search news on Weibo, Lin Nan smiled contemptuously, "Are you showing your goodwill? Are you crazy? Daydreaming... It doesn't matter anymore."

"It seems that since the beginning of last year, Teacher Li has been the chairman..."

Liu Yifei looked at Lin Nan and said softly.

Lin Nan shook his head, "Xixi, it's not that simple. People in the circle are promoted to positions to show off to outsiders. Where do they get the energy to worry about these things? They are all face-saving projects.

The real troublemakers are those old guys who are not very well-known and do not show off. They are somewhat related to the industry, but they never come to "do nothing". They have long been accustomed to letting others abide by their rules. The chairman and vice chairman are almost like mascots, and they don't have much say..."

"Oh, then I understand." Liu Yifei nodded, leaned on Lin Nan's shoulder, and said nothing more.

And Director Lin was a little confused at this moment: "When did these old stubborn people become spineless? It's too unreasonable and too abnormal!"

...

The next day, the Crystal Pictures convoy set off from Beverly Hills.

After 5 days, Lin Nan, Liu Yifei and his party embarked on the return journey back to China, but compared to when they came, they returned with a full load!

"Director Zhang."

"Director Zhang."

"Lin Nan, Yifei."

Zhang Yimou arrived earlier, and everyone greeted each other immediately after meeting, and talked and laughed for a long time.

At 10:30 in the morning, a group of nearly 20 people boarded the plane on time, and the flight from Los Angeles to the capital of China took off smoothly.

Just over an hour later, Hollywood, the award season, once again ushered in another climax after the Golden Globe Awards.

The nomination list for the 87th Academy Awards was officially announced, and it spread from Hollywood to the world at the first time.

"The Academy of Oscars issued an announcement, and the nomination list for each award of the 87th Academy Awards is as follows..."
