That year Huayu

Chapter 1059: Fight for the Oscar before the end of the year...

"According to informed sources, the script for director Feng Xiaogang's new film "Youth" has been submitted to the Film Bureau for review this morning..."

"Because director Feng Xiaogang and all the creative staff of "I'm Not Pan Jinlian" were promoting the film abroad, Huayi Chairman Wang Zhongjun accepted a phone interview with the media on his behalf and said:

This information is true. The movie "Youth" is adapted from the unpublished period novel of the same name by the famous screenwriter Yan Geling. The background is taken from the military art troupe in the 1970s;

According to the group's plan, after the script of "Youth" has been reviewed, the project will be approved and casting will begin... The film is scheduled to be officially launched on a certain date after the release of "I'm Not Pan Jinlian"..."

In one noon time, Lin Nan and others divided up the investment shares of "Operation Red Sea", and also had a big meal at the film office;

When everyone left, they heard that news about Feng Xiaogang's new movie had spread outside; countless actors and actresses in the industry were discussing it, and a large number of netizens on the Internet were ridiculing and joking about it.

Feng Xiaogang deserves to be said to have signed a gambling "selling oneself" agreement with Hua Yi. His work efficiency was immediately maxed out. The movies were one after another without any breaks!

"The script was sent over today?" Zhang Hongsen looked at the secretary.

"Zhang Ju, it's the script sent by Hua Yi. As for the news outside, they should have released it themselves."

As soon as the secretary said this, Lin Nan and the others immediately became happy. Hua Yi was indeed skilled at this skill.

"Boss, the three of us will leave first." After having enough wine and food, Lin Nan didn't want to stay at the film bureau any longer, so he simply left.

"Then I'll go back too."

"Let's go together."

Han Sanping and Ren Zhonglun followed closely behind. It seems that these two people still have an appointment?

Only La Peikang didn't speak. He just nodded, but he also had the intention of leaving. After all, the people from Haizheng left half an hour ago.

"Okay, you go back and make preparations. The script will be released on time tomorrow morning." Tong Gang waved his hand, with no intention of holding back.

In a moment, several people got into the car. However, when Han Sanping and Ren Zhonglun passed by Lin Nan, they intentionally stopped. The former even lowered his voice and whispered:

"We have to take our time with the "God of Medicine" thing. Three months, Lao Ren and I will try to smooth out all the relationships before the end of the year and get the green light... The Magic City has also agreed to help."

"Well, okay, then Director Han and Director Ren have worked hard these past few months. Huh? That's not right! It's not a project I advocated. What should I be grateful for? Should I be thanked?!"

Lin Nan's expression froze and he reacted instantly. Isn't this Han Jia's worry and concern when she is busy? Why did it become him?

"Haha, it's your project now! Who told you to agree to the beauty last year?"

Han Sanping immediately made a face and scolded in a low voice. Ren Zhonglun smiled and pointed at Lin Nan, "You deserve it."

In the distance, La Peikang, who saw this scene through the car window, couldn't help but frowned, and then asked the secretary in the passenger seat: "Director Han has been mysterious recently. What is he busy with?"

When the secretary heard this, he hesitated and said:

"La Dong, Director Han seems to be running something these days, but I don't know exactly what it is. I only know that outside of the film bureau, he seems to have gone to China Propaganda several times..."

"Find out and tell me when you come back."

A few seconds later, La Peikang's emotionless voice sounded in the car; but the secretary could hear that there was some hidden indifference in his tone. "Okay, La Dong."

…

Lin Nan, Guo Fan, and Lu Yang parted ways at the entrance of the General Administration.

The latter two went back to their respective homes, while Director Lin called Liu Yifei and went directly to the company.

Regarding "Operation Red Sea", he had to tell Yue Jun in advance what should be explained and arranged;

He doesn't have to worry about preparing and arranging auditions later, and can be a hands-off shopkeeper with peace of mind.

For Tiangong Colors, the post-production progress of "Second Generation Fairy" is already ahead of "Marriage Story". The reason is that Director Lin often arrives late and leaves early, and from time to time he finds excuses to give himself a holiday.

So for the entire afternoon, Lin Nan was determined to stay in Tiangong Color, not going anywhere, and rushing to work!

However, although he was determined to "work overtime", he did not want to let him go because of the miscellaneous things in the circle.

"Are you saying that all those movies sent me premiere invitations? Including Hong Kong films such as "July and Ansheng" and "Anti-Corruption 2"?"

Lin Nan looked at Yue Jun who came to disturb the later work and asked suspiciously. But before the latter could reply, Ning Hao, who had just cut a special effects shot next to him, was already muttering and joking:

"Although most people in Hong Kong know that you don't want to see them, that doesn't stop others from inviting you.

You have to know that things are different now from a few years ago. The mainland film and television industry completely ignores them, and even looks down upon them. You are the number one person in the mainland who excludes the Hong Kong industry in their eyes. Are you just selling it now? I don’t want to be criticized or targeted by you, haha..."

"What the hell, are you so exaggerated?" Lin Nan looked in disbelief. When did he actually become the "big villain"?

"Director Lin, what Director Ning means is quite different. The main reason is that China Star's "Legend of the Gods" was targeted so harshly some time ago that most of Hong Kong has been in a state of turmoil for fear of offending people. And then..."

Yue Jun smiled and affirmed, and stopped there. Hasn't the fat lady of the Xiang family been banned several times? As for who did it, everyone knows.

"Turn them all off. From tomorrow, there will be more things to do!" Lin Nan was too lazy to "fight" with the two of them, and ended the topic directly.

"Okay, I'll reply one by one later."

After Yue Jun turned around and left with a smile, Lin Nan once again devoted himself to the editing work of "Marriage Story"; well, he was busy chatting with Ning Hao.

But in less than half an hour, another overseas call came in, which really made Director Lin restless.

"I said, why are you not sleeping in the middle of the night, why are you calling? It's already 12 o'clock in the evening in Hollywood, right?"

After the call was connected, Lin Nan complained with disdain before the other party spoke. Even Ning Hao subconsciously looked at him with a slightly puzzled look.

"Hey, Lin. You can't blame me for this. I was thinking about not disturbing your late sleep, so I was going to call you at noon. But I forgot about it halfway, so, hehe, I had to call now. But it should be afternoon there, right? It's not too late."

"Well, if you have something to say, just tell me. I'm very busy now, doing post-production." Lin Nan urged.

"It's like this, in a few hours, the last round of voting for the Oscar Lifetime Achievement Award will begin."

"Well, what's wrong? Didn't you vote for me the first two times?"

Lin Nan asked without thinking. The Oscar Lifetime Achievement Award has a different process from the annual Oscar award selection. The former is voted two or three months before the award season begins;

The voting results will be announced together with the annual Oscar nomination list, but unlike the latter, the Lifetime Achievement Award will announce the final list of winners.

Because the winners of the Lifetime Achievement Award every year are basically foreign and Hollywood filmmakers of advanced age, Lin Nan is almost unfamiliar with them, so he left the voting to Tom.

"Lin, I just got the news this afternoon, the result of the last round of preliminary selection... Jackie Chan ranked in the top three... Maybe this time..."

Instantly, Lin Nan narrowed his eyes, "I know, you vote for him."

After a while, when Director Lin hung up the phone, Ning Hao asked with a surprised expression:

"Your partner just said that Jackie Chan has a great chance of winning the Oscar Lifetime Achievement Award at the end of the year?"

…………

Huang Xiaoming's next play is "Nirvana in Fire: The Wind Rises in Changlin" produced by Noon Sunshine and Lin Nan Pictures;

With excellent directors, production lineups and no perfunctory casting, Huang Xiaoming is confident that he can play this costume drama well.

In the past year or so, he has "let himself go" in several movies, TV series and variety shows, so that his audience popularity and reputation seem to be a little... well, criticized!

He felt that it was time for him to get back on track... But right now, his family was "making a fuss" because of the "Nirvana in Fire" incident, which made him feel a little overwhelmed.

"I'm talking to you about business. My "The Princess Weiyoung" has already finished filming, can't you help me ask? There will definitely be female characters in a costume drama like "Nirvana in Fire 2", just like Liu Tao in the first part."

Facing Yang Ying's "hysteria", Huang Xiaoming looked at her belly, then looked into her eyes, and spread his hands speechlessly.

"You should stay at home and take care of your baby. You can learn post-production techniques at Huace, but at Noon Sunshine and Director Lin's company, do you still want to only enter the shots above the chest? Let the crew take care of you?

Besides, acting, acting, don't you understand? Director Lin's company has so many dramas, which one have you been selected? After you give birth to the baby, I will send you to Beijing Film Academy to sign up for a class... OK, just pretend I didn't say anything."

Huang Xiaoming shut up. Yang Ying has become more and more unreasonable since she got pregnant, and even completely unreasonable. In her heart, it seems that everything has become a matter of course, as if she can get whatever she wants. She even began to be "blindly arrogant" about her acting skills some time ago.

Yang Ying stared at Huang Xiaoming with her big eyes, without saying a word, just staring at him. There was no way, Huang Xiaoming could only bow his head and apologize, but it was impossible for him to communicate with Noon Sunshine.

"How about this, when you have a baby, I will help you find a TV series with a heroine as soon as possible?" In the end, Huang Xiaoming had no choice but to find another way.

At this time, Yang Ying also reluctantly agreed, but after nodding, she was still angry and sat on the sofa alone.

Huang Xiaoming did not go forward to continue to comfort her because a phone call came in.

"Producer Hou, you called now, is there something wrong?"

"Xiaoming, I thought about it, you'd better check your schedule these days, don't arrange anything on the 5th. Then come with me, go to Lin Nan Pictures..."

Hearing this, Huang Xiaoming immediately reacted;

After getting the male lead of "Nirvana in Fire: The Wind Rises in Changlin" so long in advance, he has been busy taking care of Yang Ying, and it seems that he has not shown up at Lin Nan Pictures yet. Is it time to go over and sit down, and have an attitude.

"Producer Hou, don't worry, I will be there on time. How about this, call me when you land in the capital, and I will pick you up at the airport..."
