That year Huayu

In the evening breeze, Wang Changtian and Lin Nan talked about "Secret Fruit".

But they chatted for less than a moment before Wang Baoqiang came back quickly, with a barely forced smile on his face.

Although he tried hard to hide it, his increasingly pale complexion and the anxiety and resentment between his eyebrows were nakedly reflected in the eyes of the two people, and they could see it all at a glance.

"Director Lin, Director Wang, I have to say sorry tonight. There is something urgent at home, and I have to rush back now. Another day, another day... I will definitely apologize to Director Lin and Director Wang in person... Now, I really have something urgent, so I have to say goodbye now..."

Lin Nan is a big director, and Wang Changtian is an old fox. How could the two not see Wang Baoqiang's current state?

His face was pale and yellow, and even his lips were bloodless. He spoke with a tremor, as if he was still suppressing the anger in his heart... What happened? !

"The wrap-up banquet prepared for you is a small matter. Family matters are more important. Go back quickly. If you need any help, feel free to call me and Lin Nan. Don't hesitate."

Wang Changtian reacted quickly and spoke immediately.

"Yes, call me anytime." Lin Nan nodded in agreement, not caring too much. After all, who doesn't have some urgent matters at home.

"Thank you, Mr. Wang, thank you, Director Lin. Then I'll leave first. I'll apologize in person another day, another day..."

After apologizing again and again, Wang Baoqiang immediately took his assistant and others and left without looking back; judging from his appearance, it was indeed an urgent matter, because his pace was a little faster.

"Since he's gone, let's eat together. Anyway, there's nothing else to do at the moment. But it's strange to say that there was an emergency at his home, why didn't his wife call? What kind of thing is it that his agent's wife notified him of an emergency? Could it be that they are having an affair? Haha... Just kidding..."

Wang Changtian's words were like a blow to the head, knocking Lin Nan directly to his position! He was completely upset, and his mind was in turmoil. "Adultery? Is it... today?"

"Pick up your chopsticks, why are you distracted? If I were you, you should have brought Yifei with you today, or you could pack her some midnight snacks to take back?"

"Boss Wang, Yifei didn't want to come. Also, let's go, don't eat, I'm afraid something is going to happen!" Lin Nan smiled helplessly.

"Something? What could happen?" Wang Changtian said with a smile.

Faced with this rhetorical question, Lin Nan really didn't know how to answer for a while. After a simple wording in his mind, he spoke:

"Wang Baoqiang is from the countryside and not from a professional background. He has survived all the hardships in the industry. His psychological quality and ability to withstand blows are definitely top-notch;

But Mr. Wang, think about how he looked just now. He was at a loss in front of us and even lost his mind... Is this really a small matter? Although he may have recovered now, and even unusually calm, the "urgent matter" he mentioned must not be a small matter!"

Hearing this, Wang Changtian frowned slightly and put down his chopsticks:

"A call from the agent's wife? Is there something wrong with the company? Or is there something wrong with the agent? Or is there something wrong with both? It can't be that his wife and children are in trouble, right?"

Fuck! Lin Nan looked at Wang Changtian and really wanted to curse him. An old fox is an old fox. To reach the level of Lao Wang, Director Lin felt that he still needed to accumulate experience.

"Let's go, Director Wang. Maybe what you just said will come true."

"What sentence?"

"You said to Wang Baoqiang: If you need any help, call me anytime..."

After that, Lin Nan stood up and told his assistant: "Pack two small cakes for me and take them away."

"Okay, Director Lin."

Wang Changtian also stood up, his expression a little serious:

"If something really happened to him, would it affect "Buddhist in India"? After all, it is scheduled to be released during the Spring Festival, and the post-production has not started yet."

"I don't know, wait for his news."

At around nine o'clock in the evening, Lin Nan returned home. At this time, Liu Yifei was naturally still awake.

She was wearing a vest and hot pants, curled up on the sofa playing a small game and waiting for someone; her mutton-fat skin was shining and dazzling under the light.

After seeing Lin Nan's figure, her eyes suddenly lit up, "You're back so early? I thought you'd be gone after 10 o'clock."

"Wouldn't it be better for me to come back early to accompany you? Here, I brought your favorite small cake. If you don't mind gaining weight, you can have a few bites."

"Tsk, I'm reluctantly giving you face."

Liu Yifei raised her head and began to be arrogant again. However, the happy smile on her face was enough to fully explain her mood at the moment, which was very good. Well, I am very satisfied with Director Lin!

At night, it was very sweet, like a cake on the lips; and the sound in the villa was also very greasy, like honey...

When the moon was at its zenith, some people fell asleep in each other's arms early. But some people didn't, such as Wang Baoqiang.

He brought a large group of men and women and violently broke the door of the hotel room. There were several mobile phones beside him recording the whole process. There was a pair of naked "familiar faces" in the room!

Shouting, cursing, scolding... No physical fights...

The man put on his clothes tremblingly, while the woman seemed much calmer.

She turned her back to the camera, putting on her underwear and bra, cursing as she put them on... Her flushed skin had turned pale, so she just gave up...

…………

Early in the morning, from the film and television circles to the entire Internet, and even spread throughout Hong Kong and Taiwan, there was a sensation across the country!

The reason was that Wang Baoqiang posted a "divorce statement" of hundreds of words on Weibo at 0:20 in the morning.

He told the whole country and the Internet in great detail and nakedly that he was betrayed and backstabbed by the two closest people around him;

He decided to end the marriage unilaterally, file for divorce, and immediately dismiss his agent from his position, call the police to deal with it... check the company's finances... and beg the media not to disturb his children and parents.

As an actor with a grassroots background, well-known to the whole nation, and very good audience appeal, the public opinion caused by Wang Baoqiang's Weibo can be said to be comparable to a storm, with unparalleled influence.

And the live "catching adultery" video that was "unintentionally leaked" on the Internet by the staff made him stand directly on the commanding heights of morality and public opinion, and gained the sympathy of the entire Internet and even all ordinary people!

While countless people were speaking up for Wang Baoqiang, they were also cyberbullying the couple.

Lin Nan was woken up from the quilt by a phone call. To be honest, getting up at seven in the morning is really not something he can get used to. But the things outside are so serious that he has to get up.

Even Liu Yifei, who was half asleep, became much more awake the moment she heard about that. She immediately kicked Lin Nan off the bed and urged him to go to the company.

At nine in the morning, Director Lin was sitting in the office yawning. Opposite him were Wang Changtian and Ning Hao.

"It means that after he separated from us, he went directly to catch the adultery. There were only two or three hours in between! To be honest, I really admire his decisiveness, determination and frankness.

This kind of thing is not uncommon in the circle, but no one has ever come out directly like him. They all want to save face and suffer. Little do they know that sincerity is the most touching, and hiding is not beautiful.

Wang Changtian nodded, not sparing any praise.

"So it was his agent's wife who told him the secret? This is really interesting, ha, wonderful! "Ning Hao smacked his lips and smiled silently.

"From catching the adultery to declaring the divorce, it took no more than an hour. It's worthy of the mentality that can get to where he is today. Well, there should be a think tank in the team." Lin Nan's tone was very sure.

"Cheating the boss's wife, embezzling public funds, corruption, transferring assets... This agent is good, and he treats Baoqiang as his employee!"

What Wang Changtian said was the other things that the agent's wife reported.

"Boss Wang, what time did he call you?" Lin Nan asked.

"It was a little after six o'clock. He had already called the police at that time. His personal account, his wife's account, his agent's account, and his company's account will all be frozen today, after all, it involves embezzlement...

He asked me to borrow 6 million for emergency, to fight the lawsuit and maintain the operation of the company for a period of time... He even took the initiative to promise me on the phone that he would not delay the post-production and release of "A Chinese Odyssey: Part Two". Oh, he is really a great person! "Wang Changtian sighed again.

"Ask Director Yue to come over." Looking at the assistant at the door, Lin Nan ordered.

Under the puzzled eyes of Wang Changtian and Ning Hao, Yue Jun quickly came over from his office, "Director Lin?"

"Take someone to find Baoqiang and tell him that we will fully support him. Don't worry about lawyers, funds and public opinion... He will definitely win,"

Hearing Lin Nan's words, Yue Jun smiled and nodded:

"Okay, I'll go right away. In addition, Director Lin, our "Detective Chinatown" is popular again. Isn't there a shot in it where 'Tang Ren' was cheated on by his brothers on the day of his wedding..."

"Haha, good guy, it's really appropriate!" Ning Hao really couldn't help it.

"Also tell me that he can borrow Guangguang's resources at will. I think if the woman wants to turn the tables, she will definitely bite back some domestic violence, tax evasion, etc., but he shouldn't be that kind of person! "

Yue Jun left with the task, and only three people were left in the office.

Suddenly, Ning Hao showed a strange expression on his face and looked at Lin Nan and Wang Changtian: "Speaking of which, this incident should make Wang Baoqiang earn enough sympathy from the public, so won't your movie's box office be?"

"Director Ning, it's a bit too unkind to have this idea now, isn't it?" Lin Nan glared at Ning Hao unhappily, and the latter smiled and waved his hands repeatedly.

"It's indeed a bit unkind, but what Ning Hao said makes sense. Isn't 'sympathy' a special 'feeling'? It can make the public go to the cinema and support Wang Baoqiang.

It's just a pity that no matter how much the box office is after the movie is released, Baoqiang's share will be half of their 'Ma Jinlian'! "Wang Changtian sighed, quite lamenting.

Hearing this, Lin Nan and Ning Hao looked at each other, well, this is indeed a very disgusting thing.

Outside world.

For a whole morning, Wang Baoqiang's experience was the most popular on the Internet, suppressing all the news on the Internet.

Various media outlets were tracking the reports, and a large number of paparazzi and entertainment reporters were dispatched to stake out his person and his company at all costs.

And under the indignation and ridicule of the majority of netizens: "Old Wang" finally became "Old Song", and Jinlian finally changed her surname to "Ma"!

Thinking of this, Ren Zhonglun felt aggrieved.

He was indeed aggrieved, because today's good listing roadshow did not stir up much splash. The hot spots of the media and the entire Internet were all on gossip.

"There are less than three days left, I really don't want to consider it. You're retired now, and I, your mortal enemy, gave you some benefits, but you still pretend to be noble?"

Glancing at Ren Zhonglun, Han Sanping still shook his head: "No money, all the family assets were used to buy China Film Corporation's stocks."

Hearing this, Chairman Ren's face instantly turned bad: "It's true that the dead are all China Film Corporation's people, I gave you a chance but you are useless... How far has the Navy's "Operation Red Sea" progressed?"

"I was wondering why you came to my house after the roadshow today, "If you are too nice to someone, you are either a traitor or a thief!"

"Look at you, this tone is not the way to treat guests."

Ren Zhonglun pointed at Han Sanping and began to talk about other things; then he started to complain about La Peikang:

"When I was filming Sky Hunter, I didn't know about it, so I was excluded by him. But I was present at Operation Red Sea this time. Even so, he still wanted to exclude me, how come he didn't die of starvation?"

Han Sanping opened his mouth, but he didn't say anything; La Peikang was learning from him, but he didn't learn it in a proper way.

"On the 26th, the Film Bureau."

Hearing the answer he wanted, Ren Zhonglun's eyes suddenly sparkled, "On the 26th? Haha, Lao Han, I will be there on time!"

"Where are you going, Uncle Ren?"

Han Jianu rubbed her dark circles and appeared at the stairs, scaring Ren Zhonglun, "You, are you going to steal at night?"

"Well, isn't it just staying up late to steal?" Han Sanping glared at Xiao Han unhappily.

"Hehe, just these few days, just these few days. Speaking of which industry big names will be on the stage when the bell rings the day after tomorrow, Uncle Ren?"

Han Jianu decisively changed the subject. Her script will be completely finished in the next two days, but she wants to present it on the 25th.

Speaking of the guests on the day of the bell ringing, Ren Zhonglun's face instantly had a smile:

"You will know when the time comes. In terms of the guests and shareholders in the industry, they are definitely more famous than China Film. I am not as thick-skinned as La Peikang. I asked the leaders to come to the platform. What's going on?"

...

14th, 15th.

For two consecutive days, the entertainment headlines of the entire network were still about Wang, Song, and Ma. They were as stable as Mount Tai, and no new information could shake their position.

And early in the morning of the 16th, people in the circle had to search for a long time under the news list before they could see the movie information they wanted to know.

"Line Walker" was released for 5 days and cut 360 million;

"Love O2O" and "Dangerous City" were much worse, closing at 180 million and 120 million respectively in 4 days, and both gave the industry a daily box office that was about to stall at any time and would not go far!

At this time, many movies in September seemed to be anxious. Promotional conferences began to gather, and invitations to premieres were everywhere.

"Zhen Zidan?"

Lin Nan saw the news about Zhen Zidan's new film press conference. He, Wang Jing, Liu Dehua and others jointly produced the film, which was jointly produced by Yindu Group and Bona, and supervised, directed and written by Wang Jing - the film "Chasing the Dragon", adapted from the old Hong Kong films "Limping Ho" and "Inspector Lei Lao Hu"!

"Pure Hong Kong films are becoming increasingly fading, and the Academy Awards Committee feels that every former "big shot" should be cherished, so this is why Zhen Zidan is re-assigned as one of the protagonists."

Lin Nan didn't know what to say, Huo Wenxi actually called him and explained to him.

"It doesn't matter. We can't just keep fighting after someone asked for a high price. That would make us look like we have no magnanimity or vision. By the way, how is Ip Man 4 going?"

"Director Lin, we've only done half of the post-production. It should be finished by the end of October."

"That's fine. You can contact the Film Bureau for the release date and publicity."

"Okay, Director Lin, we'll make follow-up plans according to the May Day schedule."

"Okay."

Hang up the phone and checked the time. It's 11 a.m., time to get off work.

"Director Ning, are you going to leave?"

Looking at Ning Hao, who was editing the post-production seriously, Lin Nan called out.

"No, why are you going back so early? Ask someone to order food for me. I'll eat at Tiangong Color at noon." Director Ning didn't even look at Lin Nan, and just ordered casually.

Yes, I guessed that this wasn't about being obsessed with work, but just not wanting to go home.

"You heard me, arrange a big meal for Director Ning at noon to replenish his yang energy." Lin Nan joked to the middle-level manager behind him, who immediately held back his laughter and nodded.

"Fuck you, you are the one who needs to replenish your yang energy."

"Don't make excuses for Sister Na, saying that I forced you to stay..." Waving his hand behind him, Director Lin left the door of Tiangong Color.

Online, the latest entertainment gossip has landed on the top of the hot search list.

In the morning, Wang Baoqiang formally filed a lawsuit with the court through a lawyer - divorce. It's really done as soon as he said it, without any drag!

However, as Wang Changtian said, the woman is really not a quiet one;

Because she has begun to "fight back", domestic violence, extramarital affairs and other hats are all put on Wang Baoqiang's head, but she can only cry and shout online, and can't produce any evidence.

"Teacher Jiang couldn't get through to you, so he called me. Beijing Film Academy's school starts at the end of the month, and I want to ask if you're free to go around then."

"If he asks, then I'm not free. Hehe..." Lin Nan leaned over and kissed Liu Yifei, then said with a smile.

"Then you can reply yourself, I won't go."

With a flowery smile, Miss Liu rolled her eyes, and there was a trace of amorous feelings in the corner of Miss Liu's eyebrows.

"Okay, give him face and call him back to ask."

Leaning next to Liu Yifei, Lin Nan used her mobile phone to call back, because the last bit of power in her mobile phone was used on Huo Wenxi's call.

"Good guy, it's really hard to find you!"

"Then let's stop looking for him." Lin Nan liked to be straightforward with Lao Jiang and didn't need to think too much about what he said.

"Oh, you are causing trouble for me. Forget it, the opening ceremony is not a big event, it is not important. Let's talk about Jia Zhangke's Pingyao International Film Festival. Is that the name?"

"Yes, that's it. What's wrong?" Lin Nan was a little curious, why did Lao Jiang suddenly talk about this matter.

"This morning, the school received the above documents, and the film festival has been officially approved."

"Have the documents been sent to the school?"

"Nonsense, as one of the three major art schools, isn't Nortel not qualified to receive the above documents?

In fact, the main reason is that this film festival was initiated by Jia Zhangke, and most of the co-initiators are from Nortel, just like you, Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Director Tian...

So I am now officially informing you that you must attend the subsequent kick-off meeting. There is no reason for the sponsor to be absent! And our school is the organizer of the Pingyao International Film Festival launch conference and large-scale media conference... Well, the specific launch time will be notified later, but the first Pingyao International Film Festival will definitely be held normally next year. "

Lin Nan looked at Liu Yifei and curled her lips. There were so many things going on.

"You are the leader, hee hee..."

"I can smell the sour smell of dog food through the phone. As an old man like me, I can't stand it, so I hung up."

Liu Yifei didn't feel embarrassed when Lao Jiang gave him a nod. Instead, she thought he had a "wink".

…

Whenever something big and eye-catching happens in the industry, it is almost impossible to keep it a secret.

Just like in the case of Wang Baoqiang, the entire circle saw Wang Changtian and Lin Nan providing support and help from behind.

In addition, Wang Baoqiang naturally stands on the commanding heights in terms of emotion, reason, and law, so the entire industry has a consensus that this is a "farce" that is destined to end from the beginning.

Of course, this is also Wang Baoqiang’s own big joke.

Afternoon, Hong Kong Island, Anle Pictures.

Recalling what happened in "Monster Hunt" last year, Jiang Zhiqiang is still angry.

Anle's 29 movie theaters will become extremely depressed and suffer heavy losses as long as Lin Nan Films' movies are released in this year... The dropped revenue is money lost!

"Director Jiang, all the main creators have signed contracts."

"Master, are you optimistic about your future?" Jiang Zhiqiang did not respond, but asked about the "auspicious day".

"The day after tomorrow is a good day for the announcement of the project. As for the start-up, the master said that it is best to start after the National Day, when the start-up is best..."

The secretary lowered his body and answered.

He knew very well that his boss had been troubled by the mainlanders last year, so this year he would pay special attention to the matter of approving the film project and choosing a date for filming... In the past, he would not take the initiative to ask questions in person. At most, he would listen to the crew leader. report.

"Okay, let's get ready. There will be a project press conference the day after tomorrow to announce the film-related matters. Inform Wei Zai and the others to arrive on time."

"Okay, Director Jiang."

When Jiang Zhiqiang was the only one left in the office, he couldn't help but think of Lin Nan again, "What bad luck!"
