Chapter 205: Inserting People

After waking up naturally, Liu Yifei arrived at the studio in the afternoon.

"Lin Dao, Yifei, hurry up and get your makeup and clothes changed."

Guo Fan took over for Lin Nan, sat behind the monitor, and urged the two.

"Let's go."

"Mm."

More than half an hour later, the two returned to the shooting scene, and everyone's eyes lit up.

"Wow, if you two walk out holding hands like this, the head-turning rate will definitely be off the charts."

Zhou Xun teased first, making a "tsk tsk" sound.

The cameo roles all required simple makeup.

Liu Yifei's light makeup didn't need to be mentioned.

Her exquisite face didn't need much embellishment or decoration. Her long hair draped down, interpreting that pure and refined temperament to the extreme, just like a fairy walking out of a painting.

As for Lin Nan, he was originally admitted to the acting department, so he naturally wasn't bad either.

"It's not as exaggerated as you say, hehehe..."

Liu Yifei retorted with a beaming smile, which sounded more like politeness.

Lin Nan smiled and didn't speak, but walked to a position further inside.

There were two sleep pods here specially prepared for him and Liu Yifei, right next to each other.

According to the plan, in the final film, all cameo actors would be edited into a long shot.

And the final image of this shot would be the sleep pods of Lin Nan and Liu Yifei, just the two of them.

"Lin Dao, Yifei, hurry in."

The two lay into the sleep pods, their heads tilted, just happening to look at each other, and they couldn't help but smile.

"I'm really convinced by you two, childish," Zhou Xun complained.

"Ready, action!"

Before the words fell, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei quickly closed their eyes.

Two cameras swept past from several angles, and it ended quickly...

It really was that saying: one hour of preparation, three minutes of actual shooting!

The shooting progress of "Passengers" had already reached the final third.

Liang Jiahui, Liu Dehua, Zhou Xun, and Reba were all ready.

"Action!"

As the sound was called out, the three leads instantly entered the state.

"Report on the risks we might face after the spaceship's core components are damaged and other functional modules are affected!"

The camera cut to Reba.

"Potentially affected are the life support system, fusion reactor, ion drive, propulsion system, gravity maintenance system..."

In front of the camera, Zhou Xun reacted subconsciously after hearing this: "Our spaceship might be about to crash!"

At this time, Liang Jiahui's scene came.

"The diagnostic system is damaged, and there's no way to fully detect where the problem is. We can only find the fault ourselves; this is a major project..."

Liu Dehua spoke, "Where should we start?"

Lin Nan looked at Liu Yifei and Lei Jiayin next to him, "Watch Liang Jiahui's performance carefully."

On the monitor, as soon as Liu Dehua finished speaking, Liang Jiahui's lower legs went soft, his head tilted, and his whole body collapsed on the spot.

The action of falling gave people the feeling that Liang Jiahui was completely soft and powerless, very natural, rather than falling stiffly.

"Cut!"

Lin Nan shouted.

"Sigh, counting it all up, I'm about to wrap up? Haha," Liang Jiahui said with a smile.

"Although the scenes are few, Mr. Liang's role is very important, a key role."

The medical pod was also a sci-fi selling point.

Reba reported the body test results of the character played by Liang Jiahui: necrosis of active tissues throughout the body, malignant organ failure, life in danger!

Before "dying," he gave his identity bracelet to the male lead so that he could obtain higher spaceship permissions and enter various areas.

"Congratulations, Mr. Liang, you've wrapped up!"

Lin Nan walked up and hugged Liang Jiahui, followed by Liu Dehua, Zhou Xun, Lei Jiayin, and Reba.

"Not enough fun, still miss the time of 'Thieves'.

Lin Dao, remember to find me next time there's a role with more scenes; I'm much cheaper than Brother Hua, haha..."

Liang Jiahui also started joking.

Liu Dehua said with a smile: "But I can bring capital into the crew, oh..."

"Mm, I've noted it. Next time there's a suitable role, I will contact Mr. Liang."

Lin Nan nodded and said to Liang Jiahui.

The shooting of "Passengers" had always been very confidential, but the actors wrapping up couldn't be hidden.

"Lin Dao Nan's new film 'Passengers' is suspected to have entered the final shooting stage, Movie Emperor Liang Jiahui wrapped up and left the crew today!"

"Liang Jiahui left the China Film Digital Production Base, and crew members sent him out of the gate."

"The Fault in Our Stars" entered its third week, with daily box office cut in half, but it still had 10 million.

Films in early September increased their promotional efforts and had no fear of "The Fault in Our Stars," which would be in its fourth week of release early next month.

"The film and television industry has developed well in the past two years. Everyone is coming in to open film and television companies?!"

Lin Nan and Liu Yifei were on set and both received invitations.

LeTV Film and Television was established, inviting hundreds of celebrities in the circle to attend their "LeTV Film and Television Festival."

Leaders of various state-owned enterprises in the film and television industry, famous directors, producers, and actors were all on the invitation list. The scale was indeed worthy of the word "festival."

"Lin Dao, you don't even know, they actually wanted to send it directly to the crew here, but I stopped them."

Yue Jun clicked his tongue in wonder. It was his first time encountering such a thing. Did they really not know the limits?

Lin Nan looked at the invitation Yue Jun brought, with Boss Jia's signature, and couldn't help but shake his head.

"You go, just attend the event and socialize, don't talk about cooperation, don't make friends..."

Yue Jun nodded subconsciously.

In his impression, he rarely saw Lin Nan say such things, and he understood the meaning: they were not on the same path!

"Mm, I know."

LeTV had successfully gone public before, and its performance was very "gorgeous."

Now that the film and television company was established, with one shout, it indeed made a large number of celebrities and filmmakers in the circle unconsciously flock to it, with even more taking the initiative.

"Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige, Feng Xiaogang, Jiang Wen... Zhang Guoli, Zhang Ziyi, Li Bingbing, Zhen Zidan..."

Lin Nan roughly looked at the news, good heavens, they had almost swept up everyone with fame in the circle!

Outside.

The media were all reporting that another powerful company had been established in the film and television circle, followed by a series of flattery and promotion.

Looking at the film market again, "The Fault in Our Stars" had officially broken 400 million in box office, pushing the box office record for art-house films forward by more than 200 million.

Facing the reporters who ran to the digital production base, Liu Yifei went to deal with them alone again.

"500 million? We really haven't thought about this number. The current box office performance is already very good. As for how much the final box office can reach, let's wait and see."

"The shooting progress of 'Passengers' has indeed reached the late stage, and it will wrap up by mid-September at the latest..."

"Celebration banquet? Mm, we will hold a celebration banquet, and we will definitely invite all media friends then."

Lin Nan was still filming when Wang Changtian's call came again.

The latter chose the time well, calculating that it was mealtime, so it wouldn't affect the shooting.

"Chairman Wang, what's the matter?"

"What I asked you last time, do you want to insert someone into that 'The Patriot Loyal Yue Fei'?

If you don't insert anyone, we'll finalize the actors here. Currently, only Huang Xiaoming cannot be changed..."

Lin Nan patted his forehead; he had really forgotten about this.

"Are you sure no one will object or have opinions if I insert someone?"

Lin Nan asked tentatively; there were quite a few investors in this TV series.

"Who would dare object? Light Chaser, China Film, plus you, among the other investors, would Xiaoma Pentium, Huang Xiaoming, and Fan Bingbing not give you face?"

"Oh my, I really filmed 'Passengers' until I was dazed!"

Lin Nan mocked himself and then said: "How about this, Chairman Wang, send someone to bring the script to me, today, send it to my crew, I'll take a look first."

Regardless of whether there was a suitable one, Lin Nan said directly.

"Fine, it will arrive within an hour."

The distribution of "The Fault in Our Stars" was done by Light Chaser, which made many distribution companies in the industry envious.

Even Han Sanping had mentioned it several times in front of Lin Nan.

Previously, Jiang Xuerou had suggested whether the company should develop a film distribution business.

Lin Nan had thought about it for a long time and finally rejected it.

Distribution business wasn't something you could do just by talking about it; it required massive connections and channel relationships, as well as a professional team.

The strongest private distribution companies in the film industry were Light Chaser and Bona.

The former had connections in the television and broadcasting system, and the latter was from the system and backed by Poly, which was self-evident.

"Following Lin Dao to film has one benefit: the food will never be bad, it's very sumptuous!"

At lunchtime, Zhou Xun sighed.

No one really refuted this, and even Liu Dehua nodded.

"It's just that I can do this as a director. For the crews I invest in, it's not necessarily the case," Lin Nan said with a smile.

The films he directed were definitely also invested in and produced by Lin Nan Film Industry.

In terms of the budget for meals, he was always very generous and basically hired chefs for the leads.

"There's fruit after the meal, don't eat too much and affect the afternoon shooting," Lin Nan joked.

Liu Yifei was sitting in the director's chair at this moment, eating the fruit platter Lin Nan handed over.

A staff member brought the script for "The Patriot Loyal Yue Fei."

This scene attracted the attention of everyone who was eating.

"Don't look, it's just a TV series we jointly invested in, a script sent by Light Chaser. I'll see if there are any suitable roles I can give them."

Hearing this, Lei Jiayin and Reba instantly raised their heads.

"Reba, mind your image."

Liu Yifei reminded with a smile, and the latter was a bit embarrassed, wiping the corner of her mouth awkwardly.

Taking advantage of the lunch and rest time, Lin Nan quickly flipped through the script.

He didn't even think about male roles; Huang Xiaoming was the absolute lead.

Zhang Yi and Lei Jiayin couldn't possibly go in to play bit parts and be supporting roles for Huang Xiaoming.

Especially Zhang Yi, Lin Nan had given him so many resources that he was no longer allowed to play supporting roles in TV series; at the very least, he had to be the lead in a high-quality TV series.

If male roles wouldn't work, then he could only look at female roles!
