Chapter 30

Lin Nan met the legendary artist director of Emperor Motion Pictures, Ms. Huo.

"Lin Dao, our Emperor Motion Pictures has rich production experience, a large number of excellent artists, and our own theater chain. Currently, we have confirmed investment in Director Jiang Wen's new film, and we also hope to cooperate with excellent directors like you in the mainland in the future..."

The career-oriented royal sister in her early thirties is really not blowing, her every move is style.

Emperor Motion Pictures' Yang Shoucheng is a pure businessman, the first batch of film and television bosses in Hong Kong to embrace the mainland.

Jiang Wen has been banned for five years, and the time is just right. Emperor Motion Pictures' actions are fast enough.

"Of course, if there is a chance, I will certainly not refuse Emperor Motion Pictures' kindness."

Lin Nan personally sent her out of the company. He really couldn't be idle recently.

"Lin Dao, she looks really like a big star." The front desk said with envy.

"Of course, she has acted and been a model." Lin Nan said.

Currently famous agents, in the mainland are Wang Chang two people, in Hong Kong is Huo Wenxi.

"It really looks a bit like Faye Wong." Lin Nan nodded and returned to the office.

On the last day, Lin Nan chose to stay at school. Everyone says that the end of the year is a good time to visit relatives and friends, but this is not the lunar New Year. Lin Nan's company has so many people, so he had to hide out.

The administration will help him push everything away, unless it is a particularly important guest, but generally, these will have Lin Nan's contact information.

Familiar classmates will now call Lin Dao, and there are only a few who call Lin Nan's name, fewer and fewer.

Freshmen and sophomores will call Senior Brother, appearing intimate, but Lin Nan may not have dealt with them.

Reality is just so realistic.

It stands to reason that it usually takes until the first semester of senior year to determine the qualification for recommended admission to graduate school.

But Teacher Jiang has already hinted to Lin Nan that Lin Nan's recommended admission will definitely pass, which is also decided by the department.

"Teacher, can I not go to graduate school?"

Lin Nan said his thoughts directly this time. Old Jiang looked very surprised after hearing it. Few people would refuse such a good thing.

"If you want to keep going in this industry, I suggest you go to graduate school. If you can stay at school in the end, it's best. This will make your path go more smoothly."

Teacher Jiang said very directly, this is leading Lin Nan to the path of "one of our own".

"After graduate school, you don't need to stay at school often. You were fishing for three days and drying the net for five days in undergraduate, and graduate school won't require you even more."

Since it had come to this, Lin Nan couldn't refuse anymore.

"That's it, don't spread it around when you go back."

Lin Nan went to the acting department to see. Almost all of the 02 level were not at school. They were already equivalent to graduation.

Art colleges, especially acting majors, competition is so fierce.

Seeing Lin Nan wandering in the acting department, many people whispered, and some thought he was looking for actors.

Those who could sign companies in the 02 level signed. Zhu Yawen actually signed the best. Wang Jinghua, under the same agent, is at the level of Chen Daoming and Carina Lau.

Zhou Yang still followed the company under CCTV, Jiang Yiyan also had her own path, Luo Jin seemed to have signed too, and Lin Nan didn't know much about the other classmates, and the relationship was ordinary before.

Lin Nan walked in school and suddenly had a lonely feeling. Before, he could chat with Zhu Yawen, but now that guy seems very busy.

Tomorrow is New Year's Day. In the afternoon, Lin Nan simply gave himself half a day off and went to China Film to see the post-production of *Return to Dust*. It stands to reason that there should be no problem.

When I went to see it last time, it was already more than half completed, and the effect was good. Besides, it wasn't a special effects film.

When arriving at the place, a manager of the department received Lin Nan.

"Lin Dao, I was going to give you news after the festival, but I didn't expect you to come today."

Listening to this, it seems it's already done.

"Is it done?"

"Yes, it was just done the day before yesterday. Do you want to see it?"

"Then let's see."

Lin Nan followed.

There is a separate screening room, and Lin Nan watched with some post-production staff.

The editing is good, the dubbing is perfect, and the music selection is according to Lin Nan's requirements.

After the two-hour film ended, some people's eyes were red, and Lin Nan also looked quite heavy.

"When editing at the beginning, several colleagues cried. Watching it again this time, the feeling is still very deep." Several staff members said.

Lin Nan was very satisfied with this effect and specially thanked them.

"I hope Lin Dao's work can win an award, it's really a good film."

"Thank you, and thank you all for your hard work."

Before Lin Nan left, someone came to invite him. Han Zong wanted to see him.

Now he is the vice chairman and vice general manager, but everyone knows that the positive one is just hanging a name, and the actual management is mostly decided by Han Zong, although there are several vice chairmen.

"Han Zong."

Lin Nan followed the secretary to see Han Sanping. The office is really big.

"Little Lin Dao, I heard you came to see post-production, so I asked someone to invite you over by the way, sit."

The secretary closed the door and went out.

"Is Berlin confirmed?" Han Sanping asked.

"Yes."

"At the Golden Rooster, I thought you were just talking. It wasn't until you came to see post-production for the first time that I realized you were serious."

Han Sanping paused. "Gu Changwei's *Peacock* will also go. I hope you both have gains."

"I heard you made a film, didn't direct it yourself?"

Lin Nan had to admire, this was the first time he was asked since *Crazy Stone* started filming. It seems that one of the original producers was the one in front of him.

"Haha, Han Zong is the first one to ask me. I thought I could not be discovered until promotion."

Lin Nan admitted happily.

"It was still the people below who saw it in the bureau and told me. However, why don't you direct it? I saw the script was written by you."

"When finalizing this matter, I didn't think about directing it myself. That senior brother of mine shouldn't pit me, he has talent."

Lin Nan continued: "I saw him at school that day, and the script was also made by me in an afternoon, so I didn't tell you. The cost was only 8 million, not worth opening my mouth to you. Wait until the day I make a big one, I will definitely find you."

Han Sanping laughed when he heard Lin Nan say this. He just liked big productions.

"Okay, I'll wait for you. Is the distribution confirmed? Your name now is already a box office guarantee."

Han Sanping was still a bit regretful that he didn't occupy a share of investment. He was very optimistic about Lin Nan and also looked forward to the big production in his mouth.

"Not yet? I want to wait until it wraps up before saying."

Lin Nan was curious. Han Sanping shouldn't look down on distribution.

"That's just right, I'll introduce someone to you, formerly from your school's management department, my old subordinate, also doing film distribution, just happened to be in the group to talk about business today."

Lin Nan suddenly realized, understood.

In less than ten minutes, Lin Nan saw the person coming, round face, a bit chubby.

"Han Zong, Lin Dao."

Bona, Yu Dong.

Lin Nan felt this was not a coincidence.

Accepted Yu Dong's business card, considered formally knowing each other.

After Lin Nan left, Han Sanping looked at Yu Dong and said: "Go yourself if you have anything in the future, don't always come to find me."

"Old leader, I also came out from under your hands. If I have difficulties, I have to find you. It's just that this Lin Dao seems a bit unhappy." Yu Dong was a character who climbed up the pole.

Lin Nan was indeed unhappy. How could there be such a hard business? He had to say that he owed favors to Enlight Media for borrowing money, but in fact, he still wanted to find Enlight Media for promotion.

As for Bona, talk about it later.

The next day, New Year's Day.

The crew that started work wouldn't have any statutory holidays.

Ning Hao's crew in Shancheng went smoothly, inviting Lin Nan to visit the set if he had nothing to do. He treated this film as his turnaround work, hoping to receive attention from the beginning.

Before starting filming, Lin Nan wanted him to keep it secret. Now that it started, Ning Hao wanted more promotion.

Important awards and box office can make a director successful. Ning Hao felt the latter might have greater hope, so he wanted to borrow Lin Nan's name for marketing, which should have been the case.

Lin Nan flew to Shancheng on New Year's Day, entered the crew with great fanfare. When reporters took pictures, he smiled and waved, and invited them together.

The three major portal websites are still in their heyday.

This Sina reporter was obviously very surprised. Lin Nan actually invited him together. Don't most stars reject them?

"Lin Dao, hello." The reporter walked up to greet him without any embarrassment.

"Hello, working on New Year's Day, quite hard."

Having a good relationship with the media is a must. They may not be able to help you, but it's very annoying when they mess with you.

"Reporters, where are there any holidays? I'm lucky to meet Lin Dao today, the material is there." The other party laughed.

"Haha, just take it as your praise. Do you want to go in with me? Looking at you like this, you've been squatting for an hour, right?"

"Can I go in together?"

The other party was very shocked, and heard Lin Nan say: "I am the producer of this film."

"Thank you, Lin Dao." The reporter didn't expect Lin Nan to take the initiative to give him material.

*Crazy Stone* hadn't started filming for many days, and there was almost no progress. Seeing Lin Nan come to visit the set and bring in a reporter, everyone simply stopped.

Ning Hao knew that reporters occasionally squatted outside. He also wanted to let them in, but he was just a director. Now that Lin Nan, the producer and producer, nodded, it would be easy to handle later.

"Lin Dao."

"Lin Dao."

"Senior Brother Guo Tao, Senior Brother Liu Hua..."

The actor of Dao Ge and the actor of Bao Shihong were all from the Drama Academy, 23 and 17 years older than Lin Nan. Calling them Senior Brother is what should be done.

Huang Bo was wearing makeup and blinked at Lin Nan. The two were in the same grade, but the age difference was quite a lot.

"Lin Dao, hello."

Xu Zheng walked over alone. The main creators were either from the Film Academy or the Drama Academy, all from the capital, and he was from the Shanghai Theatre Academy.

Lin Nan shook hands with him. This Best Actor of the Magnolia Drama Award only became famous a few years ago for Zhu Bajie.

"Hello."

Lin Nan could see that this person was very career-oriented.

Sina reporters kept taking pictures on the side, and the outline of the manuscript had already taken shape in his mind.

Especially hearing that Lin Nan was not only the producer, producer, but also the screenwriter and executive producer, he was even more excited. It seemed that this news hadn't spread out, and he hadn't heard of it either.

In the mainland film and television industry, Lin Nan's record was only after Zhang Yimou. Two consecutive films sold well, both directed and written by him, so the prospects of this film could be imagined.

Lin Nan's arrival made the crew rest for half a day. When the reporter finally left, he was happy. The material was put into the camera, and there was a red envelope in his pocket.
