Chapter 25

By the 20th, the box office of "Return to Youth" was only a few hundred thousand a day.

Finally, it came to the 23rd, the film was completely taken off the screen. According to the data obtained by China Film and the others from the cinema side and the official, "Return to Youth" was released for 23 days, and the cumulative box office reached more than 116.4 million.

Following Zhang Yimou, the second 100 million box office commercial film director was born, Film Academy 02-level directing department, Lin Nan!

From this moment on, he is no longer a second-line director, but a first-line commercial film director. Box office is the most powerful proof and basis.

Also glorious is the film heroine Yan Danchen. I heard that many producers have been looking for her recently, including coal bosses.

"Lin Dao, 'Return to Youth' box office exceeded 100 million, do you have any thoughts? What is the work arrangement next?"

"Thank you very much for the audience's support, I will continue to work hard. As for work, I will enter the crew next month..."

"Lin Dao, as a director of the 100 million box office club, how do you view 'Kekexili' released at the same time, because the box office was bleak, it was taken off the screen in less than a week?"

"I watched this movie, it is a very good movie, with extremely important educational significance."

"Lin Dao, many film critics think that the plot of 'Return to Youth' is very nonsense, especially the setting that the grandson fell in love with the grandmother who returned to youth, which is completely incorrect in three views. What do you think?"

"This is a fantasy commercial film, picking bones in the egg is too much. Hmm, let me reveal that this film has been confirmed to be introduced by the Korean side, including purchasing the copyright of the remake..."

Lin Nan dealt with a batch of reporters at the school gate, and then got into the sedan. The celebration banquet held by China Film and the others for him was in the capital, and a banquet hall was contracted.

When Lin Nan arrived, it was 4 o'clock in the afternoon.

"Lin Dao, those reporters followed." People from Enlight Media reminded.

"Don't worry, those with invitation letters will enter, and those without will naturally be blocked."

"Let us welcome the director of 'Return to Youth', Lin Nan."

The applause was very warm, and Lin Nan saw many familiar faces.

Smash ice, open champagne, raise glasses to celebrate.

This is a celebration banquet, and it is also a place for everyone to contact feelings and expand contacts.

In addition to Shanghai Film, China Film, and Enlight Media, Lin Nan also saw Yu Dong of Bona, Little General Manager Wang of Huayi, and many bosses of talent agencies.

"Lin Dao, I hope there will be opportunities for cooperation later, congratulations."

"Thank you, General Manager Yu."

"Lin Dao, congratulations. I invited you to join Huayi at the beginning but you refused. We also regretted it for a long time. This is Bingbing, who just won the Hundred Flowers Actress last month."

"Hello Lin Dao, I went to see your movie, it is very creative. Remember to find me when you make a movie again, I am very cheap."

Lin Nan held the hand extended by the other party, and it was indeed stunning at close range.

After dealing with a circle of bosses and actors, Lin Nan found a corner and wanted to be quiet.

Yan Danchen and Shu Chang came over, "Did Zhu Yawen sign Wang Jinghua? I saw him following Wang Jinghua and contacting some producers."

Lin Nan nodded, "Signed for a month."

"What date did you set for the start of filming next month?"

Yan Danchen asked Lin Nan, referring to "Return to Dust".

"Start filming on the 5th, choose the northwest piece."

During the release of "Return to Youth", Lin Nan had already set the crew matters of "Return to Dust".

"It's quite urgent, it's already the 28th today, and you promised others to visit the crew." Shu Chang said unexpectedly.

Lin Nan was like a cat stepped on its tail, "How do you know, she told you?"

"Hehe, I knew it." Shu Chang said proudly.

"Follow you, but don't you regret choosing a non-art institution this year?"

Yan Danchen was too lazy to guess the riddle of the two, and went to the side just now.

"Yes, I don't know how long I can do this line of actors. Learn something else. If I change careers later, I will have a guarantee." Shu Chang is quite open-minded.

Lin Nan didn't think of this matter at that time. Last year, Shu Chang was admitted to the Drama Academy with 520 points in the college entrance examination, but didn't go. This year, she made trouble again.

"You will regret it sooner or later, sister."

"Haha, if one day I really regret it and have no play to act, I will come to rely on you, or go to find Xixi." Shu Chang laughed heartlessly.

"Follow you, I will set off to visit the crew tomorrow, do you want to go together?"

"Go, why not go, but it's the last time. I plan to live a good university life in the next few years."

"Doesn't it affect your class? After all, it's not an art institution."

"I asked for a week, it won't delay the course."

"That's good, buy a ticket tonight, I have a flight at 10 am tomorrow."

"No problem."

At 10 o'clock in the evening, Lin Nan slipped away with an excuse, the celebration banquet had not ended yet.

People from Enlight Media sent it, Lin Nan transferred his box office share to Enlight Media, took money from Enlight Media in advance, and deducted the previous loan by the way.

Enlight Media is very happy to help with this favor. Within two days, there will be more than 10 million on Lin Nan's company account.

The production cost of "Return to Dust" was finally set by Lin Nan at 3 million, the director's fee was zero, and taking money from Enlight Media in advance was for "Return to Dust".

The adaptation right in Korea was initially set at 8 million, and China Film went to dock. Because Lin Nan is a screenwriter, the proportion increased to half.

In addition to the three actors set for "Return to Dust", other roles were found for actors under Western Film. Although the reputation may not be great, they are all acting bones who really eat this bowl of rice.

When boarding the plane, Lin Nan and Shu Chang were together, and specially upgraded to first class, which was convenient for chatting together. Lin Nan treated.

In fact, in terms of acting skills, Lin Nan feels that Shu Chang is better than Liu Yifei, but her mentality is not firm, always thinking about some things, and Liu Girl is wholeheartedly acting her play.

After getting on the plane, Shu Chang actually took out a script from her bag.

"Didn't you say you want to live a good university life, why did you take the play again as soon as you finished speaking?"

Lin Nan joked.

"This is the last one." Shu Chang handed the script over.

"'Jingwei Filling the Sea'!"

It is another childhood memory.

Lin Nan flipped through it casually, "Not bad, Little Jingwei is quite suitable for you."

"Of course, I am also an old actor, and my vision is not bad."

"The Return of the Condor Heroes" started filming in Jiuzhaigou in mid-October, and is currently filming in Yandang Mountain.

Two and a half hours later, Lin Nan and Shu Chang arrived locally.

Three Mountains and Five Mountains, Yandang Mountain.

"No news leaked, right?"

"Definitely not."

Shu Chang turned up her hood, put on wine-red sunglasses that covered half of her face, stood beside Lin Nan, and mixed into the crowd of tourists.

Nearly half of the location of "The Return of the Condor Heroes" was filmed in Yandang Mountain. Because this is a tourist attraction, the crew will inevitably be watched by tourists.

"The air is really good." Shu Chang took a deep breath and said.

Lin Nan sat on the stone pier on the hillside to rest. Both of them came out with backpacks, and they were all on him at this time.

"Let's go, Lingyan is not far away." Lin Nan got up and urged Shu Chang who was still looking out.

Walking all the way, the scenery of Yandang Mountain can be called an extraterrestrial realm. Surrounded by mountains, ancient temples and Zen sounds; where the cliffs return, Lingyan flies across.

"Passionless Valley." From afar, Lin Nan saw the crew's machines and tents, busy staff, and tourists watching from the outside.

The road to climb the cliff is just beside Zhuobi Peak. Under the clouds and sky on the cliff, looking back, it is a bit frightening, "Is it so high?"

Lin Nan is still a bit afraid of heights. "High? Not high." Shu Chang took a look and didn't feel it.

"It's right there, let's hurry up." Shu Chang urged.

The "The Return of the Condor Heroes" crew is very large and well-made.

Lin Nan really admires Zhang the Bearded's ability to choose scenery. Looking at the front river from afar, he can substitute into Yang Guo's state of mind, sixteen years of looking forward to it.

The crew specially built water pavilions here to film the Passionless Valley segment, which is easy to find.

Dozens of meters outside the crew's filming venue, there is a sign, and there are special people guarding it, trying not to let tourists break in and affect the filming.

Being blocked is certain. Lin Nan looked at Shu Chang and handed it to her. She has cooperated with Zhang the Bearded several times, and she must be familiar with the staff around her.

"Leave it to me."

Shu Chang took out her mobile phone and dialed a number. There is still a signal here, China Mobile, right?

"It's Producer Zhang's assistant, I call her Sister Du."

Oh, Lin Nan knows this, and later she moved up.

Not long after, a woman walked over, medium height, very good temperament, greeted with a smile on her face, "Changchang came to visit the crew, actually didn't say hello early, hurry in."

Lin Nan followed behind Shu Chang and was also let in.

"Sister Du, long time no see, you are beautiful again." Little Shu classmate's mouth is quite sweet.

"Where is it?"

The other party smiled very naturally, and looked at Lin Nan wearing sunglasses, not like Shu Chang's assistant.

"This is?"

"Sister Du, he is Lin Nan, Lin Dao, came with me."

Lin Nan smiled, "Hello."

The woman reacted in less than three seconds, looking surprised, "Lin Dao, 100 million club big director, the crew has been talking about you a lot these two days, really amazing."

The woman is very sophisticated, and the sense of proportion is grasped very well. It is worthy of being the person who followed Zhang the Bearded since graduation.

"Everyone is polite."

Lin Nan and Shu Chang followed behind, listening to her introduce the recent progress of the crew.

The crew is preparing for the Battle of Broken Intestine Cliff, before Little Dragon Maiden jumps off the cliff after Huang Rong's persuasion.

There are many tents temporarily built by the crew, and you can see staff coming in and out. Director Yu Min is communicating with the staff.

"Lin Dao, everyone must be very happy to be able to visit the crew." Assistant Du said.

"I went once during 'Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils', and I was with Zhu Yawen at the time, still a student with no reputation."

"In two years, becoming a top big director in the country shows that Lin Dao is indeed talented."

Lin Nan smiled and didn't speak. This woman can always find a good step for you.

"Sister Du, where is Xixi?"

Shu Chang asked, and Lin Nan also tilted his head to listen.

"The big tent at the innermost is Yifei's, you go over, I still have to go to the producer's side."

Du Xinglin said very sensibly and walked away.

"Lin Nan, I guess Producer Zhang will look for you." Shu Chang smiled unkindly.

"I have been mentally prepared for this for a long time. He likes hype marketing too much and won't let me go, including you."

"Oh, yes. You and I are the main creators of 'Return to Youth', one director, one actor."

"Just know it, go, let's go over and scare her."
