That year Huayu

Chapter 796: 900 million in 7 years; box office; thanks...

At a glance, all the major news websites, Weibo, Tieba... and even the entire Internet are filled with photos and entertainment information of Huang Xiaoming's official announcement.

Huang Xiaoming and Huang Guozhu, recognized as diamond kings in the Mainland and major investors in the film and television industry, received their certificates 6 years after they were first rumored to have an affair with Yang Ying!

In most of the film and television and entertainment circles, countless netizens rushed to tell each other, congratulations, jokes, badmouthing... overwhelming and countless.

Compared with the competing reports from the mainland media, the Hong Kong media seemed more excited and excited. A large number of long-form articles and columns of gossip are constantly flooding the screen.

The reason is simply that Yang Ying was born in Hong Kong and debuted as a young model, but she successfully won over one of the top capital bosses in the mainland film and television industry.

A sense of superiority in Hong Kong arose spontaneously in the hearts of those people!

"The two Weibo posts by the leader and Yang Ying showing off their marriage certificates are much bigger than the one between Jiuji Zhang and Wangpi Pants more than half a month ago!

"Well, no, it has already caused a sensation in the entire entertainment industry. I heard that Master Huang didn't even sign a prenuptial agreement, so he is really obsessed with the woman."

Lin Nan was holding a tablet, and several people were video chatting.

Liu Yifei leaned on his shoulder and joined in the fun, smiling sweetly: "Lin Nan and I didn't sign that thing either."

"You two? Hahaha... You can be regarded as watching Lin Nan become bigger and stronger step by step. You two definitely don't need to distinguish each other!"

Zhu Yawen said with a laugh, with a hint of ridicule in her tone.

"The two of them are working together to forge ahead! What do you mean by 'watching them grow up'? It sounds awful, hehehe..."

On the screen, Zhou Xun put on a facial mask and laughed at Lin Nan and Liu Yifei, and then started to "complain":

"Hey, this year's share of the income has increased. Hurry up and film with me, Director Lin and Producer Liu."

"You're using private goods? Brother Xun? Have you bought the movie tickets for "Manchester by the Sea"?" Huang Bo took over the conversation and asked with a smile.

"Yeah, hurry up and buy tickets to support my movie."

Lin Nan urged with a smile. Today's movie-related hot searches were all suppressed by the matter of Master Huang.

"Buy it and go see it this afternoon. How many tickets do you still need from us?"

“After watching the movie, remember to post on Weibo and place an advertisement.”

Liu Yifei reminded Zhou Xun in a clear voice, and immediately received several eye rolls.

To the outside world, Huang Xiaoming's marriage registration and the official release of "Manchester by the Sea" are undoubtedly the two biggest focuses in the industry today.

Especially the former has captured the public's attention. Yang Ying's popularity also experienced another surge, thanks to Mrs. Huang's new identity.

…………

"Produced by Lin Nan Pictures, written and directed by director Cao Baoping, starring Liu Ye, Zhang Yi, Wang Ziwen and others. The black humor and suspense movie "The Chaser" was officially shut down at noon in Caiyunzhinan!"

"Zhang Yi was interviewed and expressed that he had no regrets about returning from the Cannes trip empty-handed and was already content."

"Director Cao Baoping said with a smile that he will treat "Heart of the Sun" being shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Shanghai International Film Festival with a normal attitude. Whether he can win the award or not, he will do his best and leave it to fate."

During lunch, Lin Nan also talked with Cao Baoping on the phone. In the latter words, the post-production of "The Murderer" may take a long time.

Because the total shooting time was nearly 5 hours, and they were all very exciting shots, he had to pick and choose slowly, and finally cut it to less than two hours. Even his tone was full of reluctance and regret.

Huayi, Chairman's Office.

Wang Zhonglei hurriedly knocked on the door and came in. Wang Zhongjun was answering the phone.

"Well, congratulations to you. It's okay for baby's studio to leave Huayi. You can go through the formalities and terminate the cooperation agreement in these two days. Chen He and his studio have already left at the beginning of the year. Originally, the group has been cutting this A piece of business..."

A few minutes later, Wang Zhongjun hung up the phone with Huang Xiaoming and then looked at Wang Zhonglei, "What's wrong?"

"Lin Nan has less than 400,000 shares left. All positions will be cleared tomorrow morning at the latest."

"More than four hundred million...how many times did he throw it away?"

Wang Zhongjun asked with no expression on his face and no emotion or anger in his tone.

"Since the beginning of last year, including this time, there have been a total of 5 sales. The funds cashed out in the first four times were approximately 168 million, 52 million, 110 million, and 120 million. The approximate amount this time will not be known until he clears his position. .”

"He invested 24 million yuan in early 2008 and took away 900 million yuan through stock increases in 7 years. It was really a huge profit! But we didn't lose money either. The market value has reached 87.5 billion."

Wang Zhongjun muttered softly, but actually his heart ached, even though Lin Nan took money from the stock market! Not to mention Wang Zhonglei, in his opinion, apart from his two brothers, Lin Nan is definitely the biggest "leech" among Huayi shareholders!

"From now on, we have nothing to do with him. From now on, we can compete without any scruples..."

"Well, that's the truth!"

…………

In the afternoon, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei simply chose to go out for a walk. Today’s movie review, I can’t wait any longer!

However, in the movie information, although there is no news about "Manchester by the Sea", "The Assassin" which just returned from Cannes and Jia Zhangke's "Old Man" have been scheduled together.

The former will be released on August 27th, while the latter is scheduled for October 30th. I just don’t know how competitive it will be at the box office once it’s released.

Online, Chen Kexin's company announced in a high profile that it has obtained Li Na's authorization, that is, the movie "Li Na Biography" will be included in Chen Kexin's filming plan in the next few years.

Not to mention, as soon as this news came out, it attracted the attention of many actors in the industry, and many people flocked to it. The number of artists who like and comment continues to increase.

When Lin Nan and Liu Yifei were shopping, they were still joking, saying that Chen Kexin was really "scheming".

The first film was "Partners in China", and the second was "Li Na". It was simply "tailor-made" for the mainland!

When can you have a correct attitude and correct buttocks, why do you need these thoughts?

Just as he picked up the coffee cup, Lin Nan's call came.

"From the bureau?"

When Liu Yifei, who was sitting opposite, heard this, she raised her head and looked at Lin Nan, "What's wrong?"

"I'll take it first... hello?"

"Is it Director Lin Nan? This is the Film Bureau. Regarding the review of "The Secret of the Dragon"..."

A few minutes later, Lin Nan hung up the phone, speechless.

"I heard what happened to the word 'review'?"

Liu Yifei took the cake from the waiter while pursuing Lin Nan.

"It's nothing. I can pass the trial normally. I just found fault."

Lin Nan didn't say much. The call just now was from the secretary of the Children's Bureau.

The review department requested that some scenes be deleted from "The Secret of the Dragon", but Tong Bureau spared them.

It is not ruled out that some people will continue to "criticize" later, so Lin Nan has an idea, but don't point your nose and scold him back. Now that his status is different, the impact will not be good.

"So, you can get the release permit in the next two days?" Liu Yifei responded.

"Almost, it should be within the next few days."

Lin Nan nodded, then picked up the spoon and touched Miss Liu's cake.

After all, he was really good at scolding those people if they really wanted to cause trouble.

At first, the people in the review department "criticized" Ning Hao in a weird way, but he didn't tolerate this kind of anger.

…………

Maybe it’s because “Manchester by the Sea” is so sad and depressing that there was no movement on the Internet all day long.

But this situation only lasted for one day.

Since the evening, Lin Nan's Weibo and Lin Nan Film's Weibo have been constantly flooded with comments, and there are real "curses"!

Director Lin Da had no idea because he had a "fight" with Liu Yifei and was very tired and went to bed very early.

The next morning, they didn't get up lazily until the sun rose.

At this time, the Internet was already a "busy" scene. As Lin Nan expected, he became the target of "punishment".

"Produced by Crystal Pictures, directed by Lin Nan, starring Leonardo DiCaprio, Jessica Chastain, Matt Damon and others.

It has won 8 international awards including the Golden Globe, Berlin, and Oscar. The drama film "Manchester by the Sea" grossed a strong box office of 62.55 million on the first day of its release, and its reputation has exploded..."

"Film critics are rarely unified: "Manchester by the Sea" uses a realistic narrative and seemingly relaxed performances to convey a series of real pains such as infinite sadness, depression, silence, and despair without resistance... The film There is a threshold for watching movies, and viewers need to be mentally prepared..."

"Movie Channel reported: "Manchester by the Sea" is like a drop of water piercing a stone. It is filled with a heartbreaking emotion from beginning to end. Director Lin Nan is like tearing a wound, slowly unfolding the memories and plot..."

Countless filmmakers and directors long for a situation where "scolding you" is also "praising you."

And "Manchester by the Sea" should achieve this, if not all of it, then it is 7788.

"Okay, very good. After watching the movie, I felt uncomfortable all day long, depressed! What a 'bad movie', it made me so uncomfortable. I don't need to refund the money..."

"Director Lin Nan deserves to die! He is no longer a human being this time..."

"This movie contains a mental attack. It's not obvious, but after watching it, I was attacked inexplicably! I seem to be depressed? Do I need to take medicine?"

"Don't listen to the above, and don't listen to the media. This movie is very good, I testify! I suggest you go and see it if you haven't seen it. I can't be the only one to bear it..."

…

"Leonardo deservedly won three Best Actors for this movie! Well, nothing to say... Let's just scold Director Lin. Who made him the director and screenwriter... What the hell? Bullshit!"

"It's so miserable, it's really miserable! But it's not the same as the 'miserable' kind of fifth-generation directors..."

"From the beginning to the end, there is no talk of 'despair', 'pain', 'depression', or 'life is worse than death'... because from beginning to end the male protagonist is a living corpse... he has been dead long ago..."

"It's undoubtedly a bad movie. It's boring throughout and I can't watch it!"

"This film won so many awards? Am I still having problems or are there problems with those film festivals?"

"Upstairs, you are too impetuous, or too young!"

…

Phone calls from many directors in the industry came to Lin Nan one after another.

It is really the only one in China that an award-winning film can achieve this kind of first-day box office. For so many years, there has only been one Lin Nan!

"It should be considered the result of many factors. First of all, I have made so many commercial films, and the box office appeal is there;

Secondly, the leading actors in this movie are all well-known Hollywood movie kings and queens;

Finally, this movie did win a lot of awards, and the audience must be very curious! The box office in the following days will definitely plummet. "

After hearing Lin Nan's analysis, Jia Zhangke, who came to "ask for advice", was speechless.

"Okay, I can't compete with you. I'd better leave my "Old Friend in Mountains and Rivers" to fate..."

"You don't rely on box office for your livelihood. I don't believe that the copyright of "Old Friends in Mountains and Rivers" sold very little in Cannes!"

Lin Nan said with a smile, his tone was very sure.

"Hahaha... I can't hide it from you. I must have made money from the copyright, but who doesn't want to be better at the box office?"

…………

Directors, filmmakers, actors and artists in the industry all gave "Manchester by the Sea" positive reviews.

Previously, many people in the industry were still skeptical and censorious due to the fact that it was kept secret, not promoted, and no one saw the finished film.

Until this moment, this movie, which has won 8 Golden Globe, Berlin, and Oscar awards, is truly well-deserved in China.

Matt Damon called specifically from the set of "The Great Wall".

This is the first time for him to pay attention to the box office of a movie he participated in in a foreign country. It feels amazing.

"Have you changed places?"

"Yes, Lin. I just arrived here yesterday. It's called the 'Oriental Movie Capital Base'."

When Lin Nan heard this, he immediately understood that "The Great Wall" had begun to wrap up and was reshooting those special effects shots.

"Brother Lin, your movie is really great. Director Zhang took us to see it last night, and he rated it very highly."

Jing Tian's voice suddenly came from the phone.

"Thank you. Also thank Director Zhang for me."

"Okay, Brother Lin."

Lin Nan didn't talk much and hung up the phone after a few minutes because Liu Yifei was waving from the side.

The two of them have a flight tomorrow morning, and it seems they haven't communicated with Yinghuang yet.

"Huo Wenxi will bring someone to pick him up. I just sent a message there."

Ms. Liu was holding her mobile phone and a tablet in front of her. She looked quite "busy", but she was actually chatting.

"Well, it doesn't matter if someone from Yinghuang is there to pick you up. We can't avoid the media on this trip. Ever since your naturalization information was announced, the Hong Kong media should have been waiting for you."

"Huo Wenxi said the same thing. The paparazzi on Hong Kong Island are much more rampant than the entertainment reporters on the mainland."

As Liu Yifei spoke, she picked up the tablet again.

I saw that the chat interface was full of acquaintances in the industry. After watching the movie where Liu Yifei complained about Lin Nan, I felt so depressed and blocked that I was about to suffer from depression. I asked for compensation!

"A group of people are still 'claiming compensation'? Tell them to chat with me privately and I will compensate them!"

"Hehe, they would never dare."

…

On the Internet, the promotion of "Flower Thousand Bones" has been fully launched.

There are only the last 10 days left before the TV series starts airing on Mango.

The exclusive production and production by Lin Nan Pictures and the gimmick supported by Tiangong color special effects have also made this large-scale costume fairy tale a hot topic of public opinion.

The eyes of the industry are also focused on Zhao Liying, and they want to know whether she can stand on the front line through this drama.

Because there has always been a consensus in the industry: excellent fairy tale dramas are really popular!

After arriving at the company, Lin Nan did not rush to Tiangong Color to work on the post-editing of "Detective Chinatown". Instead, he first contacted Yue Jun and Jiang Yanrou.

"Does Director Lin mean to talk to all the artists in the second half of the year and follow Lei Jiayin's model?"

"But their contract hasn't expired yet, and Reba has only just started for two years..."

Yue Jun and Jiang Yuerou spoke one after another, somewhat questioningly.

"I just have this idea at the moment. In addition, the unexpired contract, is this a thing?

The company opening a studio for them just changes the way of cooperation. They will have more freedom, work harder, and earn more, and the same goes for the company.

If they feel they have extra energy, they can even sign artists themselves, what do you think? "

Today's film and television industry is already in the era of high pay, and it's still rising.

For artists to work part-time or be their own bosses, the latter is definitely more "passionate" and more desirable, and there are also policies to take care of taxes.

Rather than them having ideas, it would be better for Lin Nan to pave the way for them in advance.

Moreover, Lin Nan's principle has never been "squeezing". Whatever is good for the artists, do whatever it takes!

It’s not like our relationship will become strangers just because we opened a studio.

"When you think about it, it's really good. There will be a lot less to worry about. Shanhai Media only needs to coordinate a few studios."

"You can try. But if they really sign their own artists..."

…………

On the afternoon of the 30th, Lin Nan received a call from the securities company as soon as he got home.

After 18 days of selling, all the Huayi stocks in his hands were completely cleared.

And he has to admit the fact that the current stock market is indeed a bull market.

"Director Lin, on the day you asked us to sell, Huayi's stock price was 61 yuan and 8 cents. Now it is 63 yuan and 85 cents, with a market value of 88.4 billion. Huayi is still rising. We analyze that Huayi is likely to exceed 1,000 yuan this year. 100 million……"

The operator on the other end of the phone was a little embarrassed. Huayi has been making rapid progress from last year to now, and its market value has more than doubled!

In his opinion, if Lin Nan, a great director, had waited a little longer, he would definitely be able to get even higher.

But then he felt that he was thinking too much, that everyone was not on the same level, and Director Lin didn't care about that at all.

Lin Nan said in a gentle tone: "Thank you for your hard work this time. Your red envelope will be forwarded to you by the securities company. I have already said hello in advance, and I am very grateful for your help in the past six or seven years."

"You're welcome, Director Lin. I am your one-to-one operator. This is what I should do."

The voice on the other end of the phone was suppressed with excitement, because he already knew the amount of the red envelope given by Lin Nan, 660,000.

"Well, that's it."

"Okay, Director Lin can come to us in the future if necessary..."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Nan looked at Liu Yifei, who was sitting cross-legged on the sofa wearing hot pants.

She was checking Lin Nan's account at the securities company.

"Lin Nan, now it's time to completely clear out the inventory.

Then when I go to Hong Kong Island this time, just follow me and carry my bag, okay? "

As Liu Yifei spoke, she suddenly tilted her head and looked at Lin Nan with a smile, her charming eyes constantly hinting at him.

"Of course it's no problem, Princess Sissi."

Lin Nan smiled and sat next to Liu Yifei, reaching out and taking the tablet from the other side of her.

"What do you want to do?" Miss Liu asked suspiciously.

"How can I say that I have been a shareholder of Huayi for 7 years, and now I am clearing my position and leaving the market? I can't say goodbye?" Lin Nan smiled maliciously.

"You, they can't scold you to death? That's too bad, hehe..."

Liu Yifei leaned on Lin Nan and laughed non-stop, watching him post on Weibo.

Five minutes later, the edit was successful, and a "thank you" Weibo was updated.

In just half an hour, the film and television industry was blown up by Lin Nan.

The entire film and television industry turned its attention to Huayi, and trading on the GEM had stopped at this time.

“It has been seven years since I bought 8 million original shares of Huayi in 2008.

After being a shareholder of Huayi for 7 years, today is the time to officially say goodbye. Thanks to Director Wang and Mr. Wang for the original invitation, I did make some money, thank you.

Huayi has developed very well in the past seven years, and its market value is about to exceed 100 billion. I wish Huayi can successfully exceed 100 billion. Thanks again to Director Wang and Mr. Wang, the funds from this liquidation are just used for the wedding..."

Huayi is the leader among listed companies in the film and television industry, but what about Lin Nan?

He is the director of the film and television industry’s Golden Lion, Golden Bear, Silver Bear, Cannes Grand Jury Prize, Golden Globe, and Oscar, and he is also the top capital in the industry!

When such a shareholder liquidated Huayi's shares, the impact on Huayi could not be greater!

Countless people in the film and television industry were dumbfounded after seeing this Weibo post, and then began to speculate and conjecture.

As for the stock clearance Lin Nan mentioned, was it for marriage? Just kidding, he is not short of money at all!

…

When Lin Nan and Liu Yifei were checking their bags for the next day, Huayi was already full of gunpowder, and the chairman's office was filled with a chilling atmosphere.

"What does this bastard want to do? Thank us? Just thank you like this? Clear out the warehouse in a big way to thank..."

As Wang Zhongjun cursed hoarsely, the only vase left on the desk shattered to the ground again.

"Let's think of a way... As soon as his Weibo comes out, tomorrow's stock price will definitely be affected."

At this time, Wang Zhonglei was also feeling aggrieved. His "joke" came true - Lin Nan released the news himself!

"How, how? There is no movement in several real estate projects... there is no ready good news in games, finance...

There is still a fixed date for "Old Paoer" to be registered for the Venice International Film Festival, so we should announce it first and deal with it..."

"good."

…

The circle has been quiet since the night passed, and many people are waiting to see the joke today!

In the morning, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei boarded the car to the airport with their assistants and bodyguards. The group's flight to Hong Kong Island was at 9:30 in the morning.

The daily box office of "Manchester by the Sea" was released on the second day. In addition, the media also dug up news from the financial circle.

"Produced by Crystal Pictures and directed by Director Lin Nan, it won 8 international film festival awards including the Golden Globe, Berlin, and Oscars. The movie "Manchester by the Sea" grossed 53.8 million at the box office the day after it was released, with full potential... It is expected to break the domestic market The film market breaks the box office record for award-winning films!”

"According to relevant insiders, Director Lin Nan cleared 7.08 million shares of Huayi stock this time, with a cash withdrawal amount of about 442 million! He has completely withdrawn from the ranks of Huayi shareholders..."

"It is reported that Director Lin Nan has cashed out Huayi shares five times since the beginning of last year, with a total of about 900 million cashed out!"

"In 7 years, I invested 24 million... and harvested 900 million... Director Lin Nan achieved 36.5 times the income..."
