Chapter 324: Flying to Hollywood

Zhao Yanzi's "So Young" announced the first movie poster to the outside world.

For a time, it quickly attracted attention from all parties.

Even the Film Academy advertised for it on its official website; after all, it was the graduation play of their own students.

People in the circle, the media, and the vast number of netizens, moviegoers, and fans were all mobilized.

It can only be said that the influence of the Qiong Yao drama back then was really great, affecting a generation.

"Her schedule seems to conflict with ours a bit?"

Yue Jun said with a solemn face; the fan tendency of this movie was too heavy.

The director, actors, and original work all had a large number of fans, and even the theme song was sung by Faye Wong, which had to make him pay attention.

"May Day slot?"

Lin Nan looked at the news on the webpage and said in a low voice.

He also originally planned to put "Kung Fu Jungle" in that time period.

This way, it would be just right to be not long after "Finding Mr. Right," and the two movies of the company could also create momentum and promote each other.

"Does it affect it?"

"What impact can it have? Isn't it just a fan-oriented youth movie? The schedule for 'Kung Fu Jungle' remains unchanged."

Lin Nan said very casually; he had great confidence in Wang Baoqiang and Zhao Wenzhuo's "Kung Fu Jungle," and this time he would also increase the intensity of promotion.

"By the way, after 'Lost in Thailand' is pulled from theaters, then set the date and announce it, giving them a surprise."

Lin Nan believed that since "Lost in Thailand," every movie of Lin Nan Film Industry would be very concerned and valued by the circle.

Because the example was right in front of them; films in the same slot that underestimated "Lost in Thailand" had all suffered big losses!

"Good, I'll tell Director Lu later."

"Hmm."

The premieres of "The Last Tycoon" and "Blood Brothers" in the country collided on the same day.

These two movies were produced by Bona and StarMe respectively, and the investment was over 100 million.

Huang Xiaoming, as one of the leads in both movies, was really busy.

Leaning on crutches, he was at "The Last Tycoon" in the morning and rushed to "Blood Brothers" in the afternoon, with constant topics.

However, the focus of media reports still fell on the directors of the two crews, especially regarding the box office.

Wang Jing was very oily; he didn't say anything about catching up with "Lost in Thailand" or surpassing "Bad Genius," but said bluntly that he would just follow the rhythm of Jackie Chan's "Chinese Zodiac."

A commercial film with a cost of 140 million, following "Chinese Zodiac" with a cost of 300 million, this appetite was not small!

"Blood Brothers" here could be said to be highly concerned, because its producer was StarMe.

You know, that "The Last Supper" was also jointly produced by StarMe, and it withdrew halfway ten days ago, which was very face-slapping.

When asked about the box office, Peter Chan and Qin Hong were very conservative, perhaps afraid of another Lu Chuan incident:

"Breaking even is the first step; how much we can earn, leave it to the audience; they have the final say..."

The next day, "Blood Brothers" and "Chinese Zodiac" were released at the same time, as opponents to each other, and "The Last Tycoon" had to wait another day.

In the past, when Lin Nan went to Hollywood, he basically didn't bring luggage, or brought very little.

He would just buy whatever he lacked after arriving there.

But now, the way Liu Yifei helped him pack things, Lin Nan really couldn't bear to interrupt, although she was clumsy.

After watching for a long time, Lin Nan still spoke, because those clothes in the suitcase were really not folded very well:

"How about forget it? Your luggage is still packed by your aunt and assistant."

"I, I... look down on me?"

After "I" for a long time, Miss Liu said this sentence, but finally gave up.

"I'm also too lazy to bring luggage. But I'm curious, what made you suddenly think of helping me pack?"

Lin Nan asked with a smile, and saw Liu Yifei looking at Lin Nan with a bitter face and frowning.

"Mom said, these will have to be learned sooner or later, and I can't be a 'big lady' like before."

After saying this, Liu Yifei couldn't help but laugh herself; she really was a "big lady" before.

Lin Nan nodded with a smile; Liu Xiaoli's love for her daughter had reached the extreme.

So much so that Liu Yifei could endure hardship in acting and practicing, but her life skills were basically zero.

So far, her best life skill was cooking instant noodles and other simple things.

"You should continue to be a big lady; I can afford to raise you, haha..."

Hearing Lin Nan's words, Liu Yifei decisively threw down the clothes in her hand, sat on the sofa, and laughed like a fool, silly to the extreme.

"This is what you said, yo; if Mom scolds me later, I'll use you as a scapegoat."

"Yes, I said it."

Looking at that silly look, Lin Nan answered very firmly.

"This promise will never change in a lifetime."

"Hmm, I believe you..."

The public announcement document from the Film Bureau made the entire film circle look over.

4 years.

From the start of filming to the current review, it was only two months away from being exactly four years.

"Produced by Zhongying, directed by Ning Hao, and starring Xu Zheng, Huang Bo, Yu Nan, and others, the road crime movie 'No Man's Land' has successfully passed the review and obtained the public screening license!"

"'No Man's Land' has come all the way, extremely bumpy. Over three years of review, countless deletions and cuts. Finally, the script was modified, the ending was re-filmed, and today's smooth review was ushered in..."

Quite a few filmmakers in the circle felt sorry for Ning Hao; the most brilliant "No Man's Land" had been castrated, and now only a defective product remained.

Xing Aina's call went to Liu Yifei, inviting Lin Nan and the two to dinner.

It is estimated that it was to celebrate the passing of "No Man's Land."

"Let's go, just in time to gather with them before I set off."

"Hmm, go for a free meal."

Liu Yifei held Lin Nan's arm and said in a good mood.

The two drove straight to Ning Hao's house; I heard that they called a hotel chef to cook on the spot.

When they arrived, there was already a car parked outside the villa; it seemed to be Huang Bo's.

"Oh my, the big director and the movie queen are here."

This guy Huang Bo didn't treat himself as an outsider at all, as if he were the master here.

"Don't be poor."

"Where am I poor? Didn't you see Liu Yifei's smile at my address?"

Huang Bo pointed at the smile on Liu Yifei's face and argued.

"Alright, go in; I'm here to eat."

Lin Nan said directly, ignoring Huang Bo's words.

Sure enough, it was a happy event that made people feel refreshed; Ning Hao and Xing Aina's state looked different.

Four chefs left with professional quality; they didn't even look at Lin Nan and the others during the process.

"Only us few?"

Lin Nan went to wash his hands familiarly, sat in front of the table, and asked.

"Yu Nan is filming abroad, Xu Zheng well..." Ning Hao stuttered.

"That guy has been very busy these days, but I don't know what he's busy with; he's mysterious, anyway he's contacted quite a few bosses in the circle..."

Huang Bo added casually while distributing bowls and chopsticks.

Those present didn't feel there was any problem, only Lin Nan nodded thoughtfully.

Ning Hao might have really been tempered by the 3+ years of review time; after getting the public screening license, he wasn't in a hurry to set the date at all.

In his words, he had waited for more than three years, so he wasn't in a hurry for this half a year or a year.

However, while eating, Ning Hao still revealed his idea, deciding to put "No Man's Land" in next year's New Year's slot!

This also represented his continued confidence in the "broken" version of "No Man's Land."

Drinking is drinking; he hadn't seen Ning Hao cry after drinking before, so he learned something today.

Huang Bo, this indecent guy, under the threat of Xing Aina's eyes, still took out his phone and recorded Ning Hao!

"Lin Dao, do you want it? I'll send you a copy?"

Liu Yifei covered her mouth and laughed, Xing Aina glared, and Huang Bo still looked at Lin Nan with a cheeky face.

"Good, give me a copy, I'll post it on Weibo later, haha..."

Early morning.

A black sedan drove steadily toward the airport.

Every time Liu Yifei drove Lin Nan to the airport, it was when she drove the slowest.

"Xixi, at this speed, I'll really be late."

"Oh, don't talk, I'm calculating the time."

Although she said so, the accelerator under Liu Yifei's feet still added some force.

More than half an hour later, the car stopped outside the airport.

The two assistants silently guarded the suitcase, their eyes scanning other directions, paying attention to whether there were media reporters coming over; they were responsible for blocking them.

At the car door, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei hugged for a long time.

"I have to go in."

"Oh."

Liu Yifei let go of Lin Nan, looked into his eyes, and pointed at herself with a smile.

"Understand?"

"Understand!"

Lin Nan smiled, lifted Liu Yifei's tender face, and kissed her red lips.

Hmm? Why is she biting?

"Hehe, at most one or two weeks, I'll come find you."

Liu Yifei said with a giggle, blocking Lin Nan with her hand, not letting him wipe off the lipstick.

"You, alright. Go back quickly."

Lin Nan walked toward the departure hall with two assistants, and Liu Yifei got into the driver's seat.

She looked at Lin Nan's back through the car window until Lin Nan disappeared into the crowd, and then she started the car, preparing to go home.

Several media reporters had recorded the whole process.

"Today's material is here again, Lin Dao Nan, Liu Yifei kissing photo at the airport..."

"Eh? Where is Lin Dao going?"

When this question was asked, a group of reporters were stunned for a moment; intuition told them there was big material!

More than an hour later, there were already photos of Lin Nan and Liu Yifei being intimate outside the airport in the entertainment information.

"Lin Dao Nan appeared at Capital Airport, Liu Yifei drove to send him off..."

"Lin Dao took two assistants, destination unknown!"

"Liu Yifei, Lin Nan kissing photo, reporter captured at light speed..."

Another half hour later, quite a few people in the circle and netizens ran to Liu Yifei's Weibo to ask.

"Producer Liu, where did Lin Dao go?"

"Brought two assistants!"

"Yifei, what did Lin Nan go to do, and brought two people?"

"It's almost the New Year, where are you going at this time?"

Before long, the comments and questions were full under Weibo.

Liu Yifei curled up on the sofa, yawning, and typed two words.

"Work!"

Soon, the actors and artists in the circle were attracted by these two words.

Lin Nan went to work?

What work could he do? That could only be a movie director!

"Could he have flown to Hollywood?"

I don't know who asked this, and then the entire film and television circle became restless.

Everyone knew that Lin Nan had filmed movies in Hollywood.

One "Buried," one "The Hunt."

They respectively won the Silver Bear Award for Best Director at the Berlin Film Festival and the Golden Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival!

And Crystal Pictures' movie resources were really quite a few!

Not long after, a large number of film and television companies, brokerage companies, and actors and artists all took action.

Everyone was trying to find out Lin Nan's whereabouts this time, or more bluntly, to find out Lin Nan's movie project this time!

Who could one ask about this kind of thing? It could only be Liu Yifei.

But when quite a few acquaintances reacted, they couldn't contact Liu Yifei at all; she went to sleep in a return cage!

But by the time many acquaintances realized what was happening, they couldn't reach Liu Yifei at all; she had gone back to sleep!
