Chapter 456

"According to the content of Weibo's 'Proposed Listing Prospectus':

Lin Dao Nan has invested in Weibo since its founding, and after several rounds of additional financing, until now, still owns 12% of Weibo's original shares..."

"Once officially landing on NASDAQ, Lin Dao Nan will become its largest individual shareholder, which is also one of the major shareholders."

"According to Weibo's response, Lin Dao Nan does not participate in company operations, does not enter the board of directors, and all voting rights have been entrusted to Chairman Cao Guowei to hold on his behalf."

A series of news made the entire film and television circle countless companies, actors, stars, practitioners, and even paparazzi dazzled.

Because of Weibo's special status and market use in the film and television media industry, the degree of attention paid to it by the film and television circle, entertainment circle, and even the literary and art circle is no less than that of the internet industry.

Lin Nan owning 12% of the shares, the shock of this matter to the film and television industry is undoubtedly like a big earthquake.

What do so many original shares mean? The entire film and television industry knows.

Especially those companies that have always used and are proficient in using water armies, they really know too much!

This means that Lin Nan is inherently invincible in terms of media discourse power, and the people around him are the same.

Even those drafts that smear each other on Weibo, which company, which artist studio, or which actor star do they come from?

In Lin Nan's eyes, all of these will have no secrets.

Huayi.

Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei feel very tired.

They have been in the film and television circle for so many years, relying on industry status and manipulating public opinion, suppressing countless disobedient and uncooperative artists.

If Lin Nan hadn't taken action back then, what Liu Yifei would have faced would also be Huayi's "shameless and despicable" suppression and exclusion.

Now, the film and television entertainment circle can't leave the internet at all, and Lin Nan occupies the largest media discourse platform, Weibo.

"Stay away from him in the future, solve all contradictions openly and honestly, don't think about using off-board means, including the people around him..."

Wang Zhongjun said in a low tone, he had wanted to find trouble later because Lin Nan sold stocks before, in the future, don't think about it.

"Now it's not a matter of whether we take black hands or not, it's about guarding against him taking black hands."

Wang Zhonglei opened his mouth, the words spoken were a bit long for others' ambition, but this is a fact.

"This point can be assured.

After so many years, what kind of person he is, still can't see clearly? As long as you don't provoke him, especially don't provoke Liu Yifei, he won't bother you."

Wang Zhonglei was silent, he remembered when Lin Nan called from Hollywood, asking him and Liu Xiaoli to stop the mutual empty-handed white wolf matter.

At that time, he was still laughing at Lin Nan in his heart.

There are so many good-looking women in the entertainment circle, he doesn't believe Lin Nan can withstand the temptation, just guarding a little girl!

Now it seems that he lost, Lin Nan won.

Wang Zhonglei nodded: "Hmm, I know."

Tang Ren side, Cai Yinong looked at the headlines in the circle, unable to speak for a long time.

She seems to have wandered in front of the gate of hell countless times, how many times just a little bit, really just a little bit — gone.

Think about those drafts Tang Ren bought, like the one smearing Yang Mi a few days ago, if the latter was still in Shanhai Media...

Thinking of this, Cai Yinong breathed a sigh of relief, if Yang Mi was still in Shanhai Media, she couldn't have smeared her.

At this time, Jiaxing side is also the same "shock".

"I originally thought Lin Dao had at most one or two points, who knew it would be 12%? No wonder the company never said to build a public relations team."

Yang Mi said self-deprecatingly, and the two of them, Ceng Jia, looked at each other.

"We have to spend money on public relations, promotion, buying headlines and hot searches. Lin Dao? He can directly ask people to change the code..."

Ceng Jia rarely made a joke, with a thick sour taste in her tone.

Liu Yifei led Watching Shu Chang into the office and sat on Lin Nan's position.

"Tsk tsk tsk, worthy of being Producer Liu, wandering around in Lin Nan Pictures is like being in her own home, and can order assistants at will.

Oh, by the way, isn't it just her own home, boss lady?"

Watching Shu Chang teased sarcastically, fiddling with green plants on the side.

"Wait until we see Director Jiang in a while, help Jiang Xin confirm the role, and we will leave."

Liu Yifei leaned on the huge boss chair and couldn't help stretching.

Under the high-waisted jeans, the graceful waist and hip line were exposed instantly, making Watching Shu Chang couldn't help but roll her eyes.

After waiting for half an hour, the assistant told Liu Yifei that the casting on the third floor was on a break.

"Go, go to the third floor."

Originally, the girl Liu was prepared to call Jiang Xuerou, but the casting has been going on here, and the phone is also turned off.

Send a message, it seems too casual, she can only come in person.

Who let her brag yesterday, promising Jiang Xin that she would let her get the role today.

She won't admit that it's because Jiang Xin speaks well, hmm, don't admit it.

Third floor, many actors and agents saw the figures of Liu Yifei and Watching Shu Chang, but didn't dare to go up to say hello, the status difference is too big.

When Jiang Xuerou heard Liu Yifei's intention, she nodded without saying a word, everything was so understated.

"Already decided so many actors?"

"Yes, regarding the male lead, quite a few first-tier young actors are fighting for it, like Huo Jianhua..."

Speaking of this, Jiang Xuerou paused:

"But still have to wait for Lin Dao to come back to make the final decision, decide the role or adjust. The start time will also be later, even until the end of April or May."

Liu Yifei nodded, she doesn't care about these, "Then Jiang Xin's matter is entrusted to Director Jiang."

"Okay, I will let people notify her agent in a while."

Lin Nan really didn't expect that he could receive Han Jiamei's call even in Hollywood.

"Senior Brother Lin, the time should be in time, right? You must not forget my big matter!"

When Han Jiamei asked this sentence, Lin Nan couldn't help but pat his forehead, really forgot about her graduation defense.

As the producer of the graduation play, he was named by the school to be present.

"No problem, this Manchester by the Sea of mine is about to finish filming, definitely can go back in April."

"That's fine, I'm just afraid you will be absent.

Teacher Jiang said, if you come, my excellent graduate will have it! If you don't come, it's hard to say."

Hearing this, Lin Nan was stunned instantly. Good heavens, is it so direct now? Doing this openly?

"Hmm, then congratulate you in advance, see you then."

"Okay, then I wish Senior Brother Lin's film a complete success, and his worth soar! Haha..."

Looking at the phone hanging up in his hand, Lin Nan shook his head with a smile.

Quite a few friends in the circle have sent messages and called him recently, congratulating and teasing, all because of Weibo's listing.

The third week of March ended, the domestic film industry welcomed a new era, because The Taking of Tiger Mountain.

"Directed by Lin Dao Nan, produced by Liu Yifei, starring Han Sanping, Zhang Hanyu, Huang Xiaoming, Fan Bingbing, Luo Jin, Tong Liya, etc.

Mainstream commercial film The Taking of Tiger Mountain released for 50 days, total box office accumulated 2.003 billion!"

"Chinese film market, officially entered the 2 billion yuan box office era..."

"Lin Dao Nan refreshed the domestic film box office record, becoming the first 2 billion yuan box office club director. Liu Yifei is the first 2 billion box office film producer..."

The film circle has a feeling of "changing the world".

This is really too fast, making people unbelievable, this is the 2 billion box office era?

Zhongying issued three announcements in one day.

Highly praised the fruitful results achieved by the group in The Taking of Tiger Mountain, as well as the huge contributions made by La Peikang, Han Sanping and other two sessions of Zhongying Chairmen.

Even the Film Bureau rarely issued a congratulatory letter, celebrating the country's film stepping into a new era.

The most important thing is that The Taking of Tiger Mountain is a mainstream film.

For Zhongying, for the Film Bureau, this is the greatest political achievement! The kind that can be written in reports for two consecutive years!

However, the film circle doesn't care about any political achievements, everyone only cares about and envies the sharing situation of the four companies: Lin Nan Pictures, Zhongying, Wanda, and Enlighten.

According to the betting agreement between Lin Nan and the cinema line before, the production party and distribution party can get 46% of the distributable box office.

Calculated according to 2 billion, after deducting the film special fund and special business tax, just the distributable box office, the four companies can get 844 million!

In addition, such high box office films also enjoy the rewards and subsidies of the "Film Special Fund" of the current year, distributed according to proportion, which is another large sum of money.

Plus 92.8 million from patch advertisements, still have 10 days of public screening period, daily box office still has five or six million...

Counting all revenue, and then deducting the 150 million investment, the circle reached a conclusion:

The net profit of this The Taking of Tiger Mountain can definitely exceed 800 million, or even reach around 900 million.

Hiss... countless companies in the production industry are more sour the more they think about it, this is worth the efforts of several listed companies combined for a year or two!

Manchester by the Sea is filming faster and faster, several leads are completely in state, the number of times of one take is more and more.

Leonardo even had a feeling of obsession, even when eating and resting, it is the temperament of the male lead in the movie.

Lin Nan flipped through his phone, besides messages from Wang Changtian, Han Sanping, La Peikang, Ye Ning, there are also Ren Zhonglun, Yang Shoucheng...

He couldn't help but smile:

"Congratulatory messages, flattering messages, lobbying... celebration banquet still waiting for me to go back to hold? A bit too flamboyant? But it's okay, haha..."

Ten minutes later, with a shout of "action" from Lin Nan, the film started filming again.

In the monitor, the male lead played by Leonardo met his ex-wife after ten years, things are different.

Jessica's crying scene is not bad, the more she talks, the more excited she gets, regretting that she shouldn't have insulted the male lead back then, but in the male lead's eyes, that is deserved.

One faced and accepted reality, the other still couldn't open his heart.

"Lin, why in your script, the male lead still has to leave Manchester in the end? He has never been able to get redemption, living so suppressed, like a walking corpse drowning in water..."

After the scene, Jessica Chastain, who was wiping tears, asked this question.

"In life, tragedies are often more than comedies. And in drama, it is the same, tragedy is always profound."

Lin Nan won't say because it is a tragedy, so the probability of chasing awards is increased by three points.

But it cannot be denied that the profundity of tragedy can often make people empathize, which of course includes those film festival judges.

"Rest for a while, let's continue to start work. I have planned to finish filming and return to the country in early April."

"No problem, Lin."

"Lin, rest assured, can!"
