Chapter 170: Xuan-Yuan Sword

"Haha, you said you were rejected?"

Hearing Yue Jun's words, Lin Nan couldn't help laughing.

"I didn't expect it to be such a result; I actually lost to Cai Yinong!"

Yue Jun showed a helpless smile.

In his view, Cai Yinong is indeed a bit cunning, stepping on Shanhai Media, stealing concepts, and fooling newcomers.

"If you didn't sign, you didn't sign; we are not short of these one or two.

By the way, I'm quite curious, what is the newcomer's name, and where is she from? Actually worth Cai Yinong playing tricks."

"She is a fellow townsman of Reba, named Nazha..."

Hearing this name, Lin Nan was stunned. Good guy, it's really fate!

"Lin Dao, what's wrong?"

"Ah? Nothing.

Since others have signed with Tang Ren, let this matter end here."

Lin Nan nodded and ordered.

"Hmm."

…………

Photos of Liu Yifei, Zhang Ziyi, and others appearing at Paris Fashion Week have already appeared on the Internet.

Unlike her usual dress at home, Miss Liu returned to that high-cold state of not eating human fireworks.

Lin Nan saw that there were a large number of likes and forwards under Liu Yifei's Weibo, and the comments on the photos were almost all praise.

The external film market is exceptionally deserted.

Almost all films' box office is not very good.

Liu Dehua and Gong Li's "What Women Want," with an investment of over 100 million, ended with a box office of 65 million.

That "Mr. & Mrs. Incredible" also lived up to the name of a bad film, ending with 50 million...

Films in March have started to move.

But what is a bit miserable is that there are a bit too many imported films in March, and domestic films are afraid they can't withstand the pressure!

"Palace" is about to end, and the ratings have reached a new level, with the audience share even breaking 17 points.

So much so that "Scarlet Heart" of the same theme has also received a lot of attention.

"It is reported that the Qing-dynasty palace drama 'Scarlet Heart', which is of the same type as 'Palace', is about to wrap up filming in Hengdian."

"Tang Ren revealed that this TV drama will meet the audience in the second half of the year..."

Lin Nan admires Tang Ren's methods, starting to use the popularity of "Palace" to promote "Scarlet Heart."

Just as netizens were paying attention to "Scarlet Heart," Tang Ren announced the latest TV drama project.

"Following 'Chinese Paladin 1' and 'Chinese Paladin 3', Tang Ren will once again film a TV drama adapted from a game: 'Xuan-Yuan Sword: Scar of Sky'!"

Lin Nan has to admit that in terms of game-adapted TV dramas, Tang Ren is undoubtedly the most successful in the industry.

Countless netizens were instantly attracted by Tang Ren's announcement.

Think of the past "Chinese Paladin 1" and "Chinese Paladin 3"; they were all hits and made a large group of actors popular.

Many female artists in the industry paid attention. Liu Yifei and Yang Mi have both taken this step and filmed the "Chinese Paladin" series.

Before some people went to inquire about the news, Tang Ren announced the cast of this TV drama.

"'Xuan-Yuan Sword' will be starred by Hu Ge, Tang Yan, Liu Shishi, Jiang Jinfu, Nazha, and others. This TV drama is planned to start filming in May..."

This news can be said to have flashed the waists of many actors; sure enough, it is still that Tang Ren, rarely giving outsiders a chance.

But what surprised the media was that there were two new faces in the cast this time.

Jiang Jinfu.

Nazha.

Especially Nazha, Tang Ren told the media bluntly that this is a freshman in the art exam of the Beijing Film Academy that the company just signed.

I don't know if it was the news Tang Ren spread, or the news the students of the Beijing Film Academy spread.

The matter of Yue Jun contacting Nazha was reported by the media.

The reporters were excited all of a sudden, running over one by one to inquire about the news.

There is no need to hide this kind of thing.

"Yes, I contacted her at the art exam scene at that time, but it was only an intention."

"Signing a contract is a two-way choice; if you don't sign, it means there is no fate..."

Someone rejected Shanhai Media, which surprised the industry.

But thinking about Shanhai Media's newcomer terms, everyone can understand; after all, you really have to be famous early!

Look, others just signed with Tang Ren, and immediately had a TV drama arrangement.

…………

For the few artists of Shanhai Media, this is just news.

"Sign with Tang Ren? Brain problem!"

Yang Mi has been running announcements crazily recently, but she is full of energy, and she is complaining in the background at this moment.

Reba, who is still at school, also saw this news.

She quite envies the other party, being able to film as soon as she signs, but she doesn't regret signing with Shanhai Media.

"In three or four months, the company will arrange it for me; I won't refuse..."

Lin Nan looked at the cast list of "Xuan-Yuan Sword" and felt a bit regretful.

Hu Ge can be considered to have been pitted by Cai Yinong, running back to film this kind of fantasy drama, and still bringing newcomers.

Think about a while ago, Hu Ge also called to invite Lin Nan to eat at his newly opened Japanese restaurant...

"What a pity."

…………

"The Warring States" released the latest promotional film again, this time directly throwing out several large-scale special effects shots.

Tiangong Color's work has been unanimously praised!

"The Lost Bladesman" in the same period as "The Warring States" is not to be outdone, announcing the theme poster and synopsis.

Netizens' brains are really big.

"The story of Guan Er Ye escorting his childhood sweetheart sister-in-law all the way to find his big brother!"

"An ambiguous journey..."

Lin Nan admires these netizens, but he admires these Hong Kong directors and screenwriters even more.

Really, any plot can be written; Guan Yu almost put a hat on Liu Bei.

But what attracted the audience's attention was not Guan Yu played by Donnie Yen, but Cao Cao played by Jiang Wen as a supporting role.

The demeanor and eyes on that poster are absolute!

Lin Nan suddenly felt a bit sorry for this group of people in Hong Kong; you said you didn't know who to find to carry the sedan chair for yourself, why did you have to find Jiang Wen?

He can kick the person in the sedan chair out and then sit inside himself!

At this moment, Lin Nan is looking forward to the release of this film even more; the scene will definitely be very good to watch!

…………

Cai Yinong specifically called Lin Nan to talk about Nazha, which the latter did not expect.

"Just a newcomer, President Cai doesn't need to specifically explain. But thinking about it carefully, it is true; she and Reba will have natural competition and conflict in character resources..."

Now it was Cai Yinong who didn't know what to say; this was what she said to Nazha!

Cai Yinong simply changed the subject.

"'Scarlet Heart' will wrap up in two days; we will hold a wrap-up conference in the capital. Can Lin Dao come to participate?"

Lin Nan shook his head speechlessly; it's another matter of standing on the stage.

"I have to see the arrangements at that time; I'm not necessarily free. If I don't have time, I will let Director Yue or Director Jiang go."

Hearing Lin Nan's words, Cai Yinong understood the other party's meaning.

"Then when the time is set, I will contact Lin Dao again."

"Okay."

…………

The fact that Lin Nan owns Weibo shares can be found.

But this is the first time someone has come to ask him if he wants to transfer them.

It can only be said that there are too many people with sensitive sense of smell.

Lin Nan looked at Yue Jun, "Who passed the word?"

"Said it was that President Ma who does e-commerce; quite a few shareholders have been asked.

In addition, Chairman Cao hopes we keep our promise..."

Hearing this, Lin Nan paused for a moment, and his brain started to think.

Among Huayi's shareholders, this one also holds a large share; he was there in the first few rounds of financing, but he hadn't met at the shareholders' meeting before.

Being able to invest in Huayi fully shows that he has ideas about the film and television industry; Weibo has a large number of actors and stars, and so many users...

"Reply to that side, I have no intention of transferring. Also, inform Chairman Cao."

"Okay."

After Yue Jun left, Lin Nan sat alone in the office in a daze.

"Calculate the time, it's only two or three years..."

…………

There is a saying that is very good: lose at the east corner, gain at the west corner.

Since the establishment of Shanhai Media, it has also received resumes from some actors from time to time.

Most of them are small actors without fame, or second- and third-tier actors who were found to have poor character after investigation.

After dealing with the Weibo matter, Yue Jun saw a resume in the company's mailbox.

This is the first time a Huayi artist has sent a resume to Lin Nan Film Industry.

"This is interesting; she has already acted in several TV dramas, but she is just not famous..."

Following the phone number on the resume, Yue Jun called.

A moment later, the call was connected.

"Hello, I am Yue Jun."

The other side of the phone paused first, and then seemed to trot to a quiet place.

"Hello Director Yue, I am..."

……

More than half an hour later, the call ended.

Yue Jun gave the other party a time for an interview, and he would also ask someone to do an investigation.

"The contract expires in two months; looking at this, she is determined not to renew!"

Huayi's urine, everyone in the circle knows.

The Wang brothers like to dig for some mature artists at high prices, and relatively speaking, they ignore the small artists and small actors in their own company.

When Yue Jun told Lin Nan that a Huayi artist had submitted a resume, the latter was also surprised.

"This shouldn't count as prying Huayi's corner.

The contract expires in two months; this sounds so similar to Yang Mi's time?"

Lin Nan muttered.

"You meet her first; if it doesn't work, then refuse; we would rather be short than excessive."

"Okay, Lin Dao."

Lin Nan thought about it; even if he finally signed someone who came out of Huayi, he wouldn't worry about Wang Zhonglei and Wang Zhongjun having opinions; he is not afraid of them.
