That year Huayu

Ying Huang's announcement directly made Donnie Yen a joke in the industry, looking like a clown.

It is true that it is relatively common in the industry to ask for a salary increase while taking advantage of the situation, but this must be done within a certain limit.

But three years ago, he dared to ask for 30 million, which was really a bad idea.

After all, the mainland box office of "Ip Man 2" was only 260 million.

The salary of 30 million three years ago was far beyond the market price.

Moreover, he still used a strike as a blackmail method and demanded a price of 30 million.

How arrogant and arrogant do you have to be to dare to do this?

Blackmail the film crew?

No matter how popular an actor is, he is not irreplaceable.

No matter how popular you are, you are still playing with fire.

Perhaps, there was once an actor who held the position of celebrity and forced the film studio to succeed.

But now it seems that Zhen Zidan is one of the unlucky ones.

What he met was Lin Nan, but Lin Nan didn't accept this trick at all. She directly shelved the project, cooled it down for three years, and then restarted it and changed roles!

The industry has already acquiesced that the replacement of Donnie Yen was mainly due to Lin Nan's intention, because the main producer of "Ip Man" is Lin Nan Pictures.

At this time, everyone couldn't help but think of what Hong Jinbao said sarcastically to someone during the "Zhao Zhen Controversy":

"Some people are just stupid and do stupid things every day."

The Internet is very lively, everyone is discussing the announcement about Ying Huang's slap in the face, and speculating on how Donnie Yen will respond.

The circle was much quieter, and almost no one dared to speak randomly or interfere with this matter.

Ying Huang's statement made the Hong Kong media's voices quieter.

Mainland media are watching the excitement. Just like during the "Zhao Zhen Controversy", most of them are on the opposite side of Zhen Zidan.

But it is undeniable that whether it is the mainland or Hong Kong, there are always mountains and competing interests.

There must be people who spoke for Zhen Zidan. They were all trying to smooth things over with Xi Ni and want to get rid of the matter as soon as possible.

Lin Nan saw Zhen Zi's unilateral Weibo reprinted by the media and got scared?

"The matter of the 30 million yuan salary was purely a misunderstanding and a joke in the communication between the agent and Ying Huang at the time.

It was our failure to communicate well that caused the problem. Afterwards, I explained to the film crew many times and apologized..."

Lin Nan was so angry that he laughed when he saw this post. Is this a trick?

There were many sensible people in the circle, but not many idiots, and they could all see that Donnie Yen was giving in and looking for a way out.

However, Huo Wenxi's private Weibo still slapped the other party in the face, making a large number of netizens applaud.

"The arrogance has turned into a joke? A year and a half or two years later, after being riddled with bad movies, and the value of the movie has plummeted, are you just apologizing? The acting is good, who are you trying to fool?"

In the Hong Kong area, someone has come forward to be a peacemaker and is looking for Yang Shoucheng.

Even Lin Nan received a few calls, asking him not to pay attention to such a trivial matter and drop the price.

This made Lin Nan a little depressed. He had never cared about such a trivial matter and had always treated it as a joke.

Now, Donnie Yen is indeed a joke. He found his steps and climbed down them. But instead of walking down, he just rolled down.

…………

"Over at Ying Huang, the casting of "Ip Man 3" is quite high-profile."

"Yang Shoucheng probably did it intentionally, just to stimulate some people, haha..."

Lin Nan glanced at the news online and saw that the second male lead had been announced, and it was Zhang Jin.

There is a heated discussion in the media and on the Internet. In a movie, the first and second male leads are both Wuying-level action actors. This is so rare, it is simply a luxury.

Therefore, "Ip Man 3" has become a highly anticipated movie.

A large number of viewers and fans hope that the fight scenes in the film will be more eye-catching and more eye-catching.

"Director Jiang seems to have said hello?" Yue Jun teased.

"It doesn't matter, he is a rare action actor and martial arts instructor in the industry. Putting aside this status, I think he is better than Donnie Yen in terms of acting skills."

Lin Nan told the truth and took the script, "Lin Hai Xue Yuan" handed over by Yue Jun.

"This is the final version after refinement."

Lin Nan roughly flipped through the script and nodded:

"Let's just take it and send it for review. I didn't read it carefully. Who knows if I might change the lyrics on the spur of the moment during filming."

"Then I'll go in the afternoon."

"Well, go find someone you don't know, otherwise you'll be on the news in less than an hour."

Lin Nan was not kidding. If Yue Jun went to submit the script for review in person, in the evening, there would definitely be news on the Internet: "Director Lin Nan's new script is suspected of being submitted for review."

By then, there will definitely be a group of people coming to bother Lin Nan.

He plans to decide on the investors after the review. This is the first time he is making a main theme movie, so it is better to be more stable.

Yue Jun took over the script and talked about another thing:

"Director Ning's "The Flowers of the Heart", I think you can really put a person in it..."

…………

After 21 days of release, Zhao Yanzi's "Youth" has really climbed the 600 million threshold, with a revenue of 610 million.

As previously touted by the media, she surpassed Xue Xiaolu and became the first female director in the Chinese film industry.

The icing on the cake is always a common feature in the film and television and entertainment circles.

Female directors are already rare, which is also a major bonus for Zhao Yanzi.

For a time, she seemed to have completely stepped into and firmly established herself in the top director class, unparalleled in the limelight.

At this moment, Lu Yang was a little worried.

After 20 days of "One Man's Martial Arts", the total box office reached 480 million. It just missed the mark. The more I watched it, the more uncomfortable it became, but there was no point in rushing.

For Han Sanping's sake, Lin Nan went to the premiere of "Partners in China".

Huang Xiaoming, Deng Chao, and Tong Dawei should be regarded as the three top first-line male stars in the mainland.

Although they filmed a movie together, it was still obvious at a glance that they were alienated from each other, and they hardly communicated with each other.

"Director Lin, here's to you."

"You toast me out of nowhere, it makes me think too much, haha..."

Lin Nan looked at Huang Xiaoming who was holding red wine in front of him and joked.

"Didn't I hear that Director Lin is going to make a new movie?"

Leader Huang is quite straightforward and smiles.

"I can't guarantee that there will be a suitable role for you."

"Just try your luck. Just think about it when casting."

Lin Nan smiled and nodded without rejecting, "Of course it's no problem, of course I will consider it."

After a few words of conversation, Wang Changtian came over, and the leader naturally found an excuse to leave.

"I saw that you and Deng Chao were chatting there for a long time. What did you say?"

"Of course it's business. By the way, how are you preparing for your movie this time?"

Lin Nan even laughed. He knew that Wang Changtian came here with a purpose.

Before Lin Nan could complain, Wang Changtian continued:

"Didn't you ask what Deng Chao and I were talking about?"

"Yeah, that's right."

"He is the 'new director' candidate signed by the group..."

Lin Nan was not surprised by this answer.

After all, Wang Changtian has always been very kind to Deng Chao, and he has treated Deng Chao several times.

"We just decided on a movie yesterday. Enlight is investing in it and he will be the director. Are you interested in making a deal? The cost won't be too high.

I can't take your boat every time, I have to reciprocate, right? But at present, the Rays are definitely not able to do big projects. "

Hearing Wang Changtian's words, Lin Nan didn't think much about it. Lao Wang was indeed a long-term partner.

At present, several long-term partners such as China Film, Enlight, and Wanda have all invited Lin Nan to invest.

It's just that Han Sanping may be a bit evil. Although every project Lin Nan is invited to is a big production, they are all poisonous.

"Okay, give me a call when you decide later. Also, my movie this time will be with several companies."

Lin Nan smiled and gave Wang Changtian the answer he wanted, the second half of the sentence.

"Okay, haha, I'm waiting for your greeting."

Wang Changtian turned around and waved to Deng Chao, who walked over with a smile on his face.

"Director Lin, I hope to learn more from you on the path of directing. You can do whatever you want with me."

After finishing speaking, Deng Chao drank a glass of red wine in his hand.

Lin Nan looked at Wang Changtian, good guy, were you trying to get him to join the gang just before you came here? !

Han Sanping was quite busy at this premiere, and Lin Nan didn't even find a chance to chat with him.

"Forget it, I'll go to China Film Academy alone."

…………

The premiere of "Partners in China" is over.

Lin Nan had to think about what Yue Jun said.

After waiting in the company for nearly an hour, Zhao Liying, who had a little bun face, came with light makeup and looked very delicate.

Since the "Four Famous Catchers" series was completed in February, she has been half working and half on vacation, which is very comfortable.

Today I suddenly received a call from Yue Jun, saying that Director Lin was looking for her and asked her to come to the company.

She didn't ask anything and rushed over immediately.

"Director Lin, are you looking for me?"

"Yes, I'm going to find a crew for you."

"ah?"

"Haha, I'm not asking you to join the team right away. The filming will probably be delayed in the second half of the year. Come on, follow me to Bad Monkey, there are auditions over there."

Lin Nan didn't call Ning Hao, he was going to lead his men to kill him directly.

During Zhao Liying's audition, he stood up and took a look at the actors.

The lead female lead in "The Love of My Heart" has been announced, and it's Yuan Quan, a powerful star.

Thinking about it, it should be no problem to let Zhao Liying act as Yuan Quan's partner.

At present, Zhao Liying only has one film, "Famous 1", that has been released to the public. She is not a big star and is only a second-tier actress.

"Let's go."

"oh."

Following Lin Nan, the two of them left the company building and got into the car. The driver went straight to Bad Monkey.

…………

At this time, there are still many stars auditioning for Bad Monkey.

According to the announced cast, the male leads are Xu Zheng and Huang Bo, and the female lead is Yuan Quan.

These are all big names in the industry. Playing supporting roles for these people will not reduce the price at all, and you can also make connections.

Wang Jinghua personally led Zhou Dongyu, and beside Yang Mi was Zeng Jia;

At a glance, there are quite a few top stars in the industry, including Yang Ying, Ni Nai, Liu Shishi...

For these people, the second female lead in a movie by a great director is an opportunity that cannot be missed.

When Liu Shishi, Yang Ying and others came out one after another with unnatural smiles, the people outside were very happy.

When Zhou Dongyu and a few others appeared with excited expressions, everyone was a little uneasy. This was to be decided...

Not long after, when Lin Nan led Zhao Liying from a distance, all the remaining actresses had something wrong with their expressions.

What are you doing here?

A very bad thought suddenly popped up in the minds of a group of actresses.

As for the male actors, it doesn't matter.

"Director Lin."

"Director Lin."

…

The greetings came one after another, and Lin Nan nodded one by one.

Until they saw Yang Mi and Zeng Jia, they felt a little unnatural, but only for a moment.

"Didn't you accept the TV series? I heard it will be launched in July, and you are still here?"

"I was thinking maybe the schedules wouldn't conflict."

Yang Mi said bravely, as if she had been caught for making a mistake again, her smile was a little stiff.

Lin Nan didn't say anything more and led Zhao Liying directly inside.

Looking at the backs of the two people, many people outside were a little nervous, especially Yang Mi, who had mixed emotions.

"How did you come?"

Xing Aina asked curiously, and looked at Zhao Liying again, as if she understood something.

"Let her try the second female lead, the role that kills Matt."

When he said this, Lin Nan couldn't help but laugh.

Zhao Liying on the side was a little confused, killing Matt?

"Okay, if the difference is not much different, I can make the decision to choose her."

Xing Aina looked at Zhao Liying, nodded and said.

"Thank you, Sister Xing." Zhao Liying thanked her quickly.

For a role that doesn’t require much acting skills, it’s still very relaxing.

…………

When he got home, Lin Nan really felt a little tired.

He just went to stuff someone, but Ning Hao ended up kidnapping him on the spot.

"The training for "Wolf Warrior" is only half a month away. When the time comes, will you go to the opening ceremony?"

The girls Liu Yifei and Xie Nan spent the day strolling around, and there are still photos of them eating and drinking online.

"Of course, no problem. I'll support the movie that Producer Liu has invested in."

Lin Nan rested on Liu Yifei's lap, taking a nap with her eyes closed.

It feels tight and elastic, very comfortable, but the ends of my hair are a little itchy when brushed on my face.

"Huh? Why don't you sleep?"

Looking at Lin Nan sitting up, Miss Liu asked doubtfully. She was about to take a photo of Lin Nan and send it out...

"I remembered something I forgot to do."

As he spoke, Lin Nan picked up his cell phone and called Han Sanping.

"A little nervous." He muttered quietly.

In less than half a minute, the call was connected.

"It's strange. When I called you at this time in the past, you always said you didn't talk about business after get off work.

Now, I can say this. Let’s talk quickly, I’m busy too. "

On the other end of the phone, Han Sanping's gloating laughter came, which could be regarded as making him turn over an army.

"Good thing." Lin Nan adjusted his tone.

"What's the good thing?"

"It's about my new movie. Will Director Han be at the group tomorrow?"

"Zaizai, come directly."

Hearing that it was a good thing, Han Sanping's tone changed instantly.

"Okay, I'll come over tomorrow. Director Han will have to support me this time." Lin Nan began to dig a hole.

"Nonsense, when have I not supported you? At that time, there was no way to make "The Martian" in China, and everyone was not optimistic about it. It was not my decision, so I took you to find the Aviation Industry Corporation of China and the Space Administration..."

"With your words, I feel relieved. Don't say a word 'no' tomorrow."

"Haha, if you need any support, just ask. China Film needs money and people. If I say 'no', you can go to Ren Zhonglun..."

This vowing tone was the answer Lin Nan wanted.

"Then see you tomorrow."

"Well, I'll wait for you."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Nan was in a good mood.

"Is this movie going to be made with several people together?" Liu Yifei asked softly.

"Yes. We are a husband and wife team, and you will be the producer?"

Looking at Liu Yifei's pretty face, Lin Nan couldn't help but pinch it.

"Well, okay, I'll be the producer."

Miss Liu smiled and nodded.
