Chapter 477: Let Reba Act in

~14 min read 2,765 words

"Following the end of January, Lin Dao Nan once again cashed out Huayi stocks at a high price in the secondary market, with a transaction amount as high as over 52 million."

"According to Huayi's response, this transaction is indeed Lin Dao Nan's second sell-off of group stocks, which is a normal trading behavior with no other reasons."

"According to statistics, within four months, Lin Dao Nan sold off Huayi stocks twice at high prices, with a total transaction amount of 220 million yuan..."

From the morning, the headlines of film and entertainment news had been about this matter.

To be honest, Lin Nan quite admired Huayi's operation.

Although Wang Zhonglei didn't disclose to the outside world how many shares Lin Nan still had, he repeatedly emphasized the fact that Lin Nan still owned a large number of original shares in front of the media.

And he also hinted to reporters that Lin Nan would definitely not completely clear his position. This was to stabilize the morale.

And the Great Lin Dao updated his Weibo at nine o'clock in the morning:

"Don't ask me why, if you ask, it's four words: Improve life!"

Many people in the circle were teasing under Lin Nan's Weibo.

Saying he was truly too lazy to even make up a reason, directly copying and pasting the last one.

"I just want to know, what kind of life does Lin Dao live usually? A pool of wine and a forest of meat? Tsk tsk tsk."

"Hmm, as a classmate and friend of Lin Nan, I testify that he lives a life like 'a pool of wine and a forest of meat.' Actually not bringing everyone along!"

"Old Zhu, I think your way of spreading rumors will soon disappear from Lin Dao and Yifei's communication or be blacklisted, I'm looking forward to it. Haha."

"The thigh is right there, as for the people hugging the thigh, they can be changed!"

"Am I the only one who thinks Lin Dao is saving up for a bride price?"

"My goodness, is Yifei's bride price so high?"

"What are you saying? Our Xixi has a lot of dowry!"

The chat under Lin Nan's Weibo went further and further off-track, even Liu Yifei, who didn't want to get out of bed, couldn't help but join in the fun:

"Don't talk nonsense, I don't need a bride price. Because, it's all mine. Hahahaha..."

The message was sent, and Miss Liu was instantly caught by a group of people, followed by a burst of teasing.

At the same time, Lin Nan was in the office, looking at the banquet invitation sent by Hairun.

The latter successfully borrowed a shell at the beginning of the month and was restructuring, waiting for the stock to be officially sold in a month.

"It's been less than 5 months, but Hairun did what Xiaoma couldn't."

"Ultimately, it doesn't have the ability to list independently, so it can only borrow a shell to list, and it's borrowing the shell of a company that produces bearings."

Yue Jun's tone carried a bit of disdain. Lin Nan nodded, agreeing with his words.

Independent listing is the most difficult, but it also represents the strength and potential of a company.

The most intuitive performance is that the market value of independently listed companies is basically much higher and more favored by investors.

"The film and television industry has entered the era of capital operation..."

"Yo, Sun Li is actually the largest individual shareholder, accounting for 2.61%!"

Lin Nan glanced at the public announcement document just issued by Hairun, and then he understood, after all, she is the number one sister.

"Lin Dao, is our company really not considering it?"

"Are people below discussing it again?" Lin Nan asked, raising his head.

"Hmm, they are discussing, and the outside is also inquiring about our intentions."

Yue Jun said truthfully, his smile a bit helpless, he was annoyed enough.

"It's been quite a few years, but my answer remains the same: Lin Nan Pictures is not considering listing."

Lin Nan said very certainly.

Other film and television companies need to conduct capital operations through listing, but Lin Nan Pictures doesn't need to.

"Fine, then I'll deal with them like this later."

One week passed in a hurry.

The Hollywood sci-fi blockbuster "X-Men: Days of Future Past" was officially released.

And the first-week box office results of "The Invisible Guest" and "Coming Home" were also reported by the media together.

"Directed by Director Zhang Yimou, starring Gong Li, Chen Daoming, Zhang Huiwen, the film 'Coming Home' grossed 151 million in the first week, with stable word-of-mouth."

"Directed by Lin Dao Nan, the foreign language film 'The Invisible Guest' grossed 241 million in the first week, with full box office potential."

"'The Amazing Spider-Man 2' released for 20 days, breaking 500 million..."

"The 17th Shanghai International Film Festival will open on the 14th of next month, Gong Li is the jury president of the Golden Goblet Award main competition unit..."

At the beginning of the year, an Oscar trophy and the 2.053 billion box office of "The Taking of Tiger Mountain" brought Lin Nan honor, but also quite a few troubles.

Just look, although he didn't register for the Shanghai International Film Festival, the Shanghai official side named him and invited him.

At least the professional forums, dialogues between Chinese and foreign filmmakers, film and television industry exchange conferences, and other unit activities during the film festival were constantly contacting Lin Nan.

"Can't hide this year, then go once."

Lin Nan asked people to reply to Shanghai, saying he would arrange time to go next month.

On the desk, lay the script of "Mojin: The Lost Legend."

Lin Nan had been considering the proposal of Wang Changtian and Ye Ning two days ago.

Today he made a decision; he could send the script for review first, and if it passed, then launch the project and prepare.

After the assistant left the office with the script of "Mojin: The Lost Legend," Lin Nan called Wang Changtian.

"I've been waiting for your reply for two days, how is it?"

Wang Changtian's voice was full of energy, faintly carrying excitement.

"I arranged for people to take it to the Film Bureau for review. If the script can pass, then do it," Lin Nan gave a positive answer.

"Good!"

Wang Changtian was happy first, then thought of a problem:

"With your status now, you definitely won't film this kind of movie. Then who will be the director this time?"

"These don't need to be considered in a hurry. Even if the script is approved, the preparation work will take some effort, after all, we have to restore the terrain and scenes in the book as much as possible."

"Also true, then don't rush. By the way, let me tell you, the shooting permit for 'Running Man' has been obtained."

Hearing this, Lin Nan felt much more at ease.

The shooting permit for variety shows, especially outdoor reality shows, is much more troublesome to apply for than the shooting permits for films and TV series.

"Then let the project team speed up the progress and start filming the first season as soon as possible."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Nan thought about "Ghost Blows Out the Light" again.

The filming of the movie cannot be in order, because you have to show the most content in a limited time, and you have to make money.

So the film script has to be adapted, the plot in the book has to be selected, and finally "Mojin: The Lost Legend" was set.

"This kind of book, actually the most suitable path is to film it as a TV series, no, it's a web drama, not a movie.

Only web dramas can adapt the original plot as little as possible. If you want to enter the cinema, you have to use a knife, pleasing neither side."

Lin Nan muttered in a low voice, suddenly, a thought flashed through his mind.

"Reba, should be able to be stuffed into 'Mojin: The Lost Legend', right?!"

As expected, Fan Bingbing, who played a bit part in "X-Men: Days of Future Past," was besieged by water armies again, saying she lost the face of the Chinese people!

But it cannot be denied that this film is worthy of being a Hollywood sci-fi blockbuster.

Released on the first day, it directly grossed 66 million, and the second day's box office even soared to 96 million, fierce to a mess!

There was only a week left in May, and Lin Nan chose to rest at home for a day, not going to the company.

In the morning, Yue Jun called, and then represented Lin Nan Pictures to attend the meeting jointly organized by the Copyright Bureau, Cyberspace Administration, Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Ministry of Public Security, and other departments.

To be honest, Lin Nan was quite curious about the specific content of this meeting, after all, the media didn't have a whisper of wind, and Han Sanping said it quite generally at the time.

"You're just sitting there watching?"

Just when Lin Nan was wandering in his mind, Liu Yifei's dissatisfied voice came from afar.

She crossed her arms over her chest, puffed up her cheeks, and "glared" at Lin Nan, with several bags of cat food and dog food at her feet, the whole person already surrounded.

"Haha, you should have called me."

Lin Nan sat up from the swing chair and walked toward Liu Yifei.

"It's you who have no eye for it, I've been busy for a long time." Miss Liu rolled her eyes.

"Fine, Princess Xixi worked hard. Leave the rest to me."

"Together, I didn't call you just to be lazy."

Liu Yifei raised her head proudly, her high ponytail swaying gently, her fair and exquisite face under the sun shining with a layer of crystal glow, like someone who walked out of an oil painting, making people lose their minds.

The Cannes Film Festival closed quietly, just because there were no Chinese films in the official competition unit of this film festival.

Even "Coming Home" only went to the non-competition screening unit.

However, Wu Yusen's "The Crossing" and Jiang Wen's "Gone with the Bullets" could be considered to have stolen the show.

The film festival official erected huge promotional posters for these two films in the most conspicuous position in Cannes.

People who don't know might think these are two epic blockbusters about to be released globally.

But speaking of which, these two people really didn't humble themselves. When Jiang Wen and Wu Yusen accepted interviews, they said it clearly, their films are blockbusters!

Lin Nan wanted to laugh a little when he saw this news.

He knew Jiang Wen had this personality, but why did Wu Yusen dare to say this? His previous "epic blockbuster" "Red Cliff" was still hanging on the bad movie list!

"Lin Dao, 'Nirvana in Fire' can be finished filming in these two days."

Nearly four months had passed since the start of filming, and Hou Hongliang's call finally came.

"Then the post-production editing, please leave it to Daylight Entertainment." Lin Nan was polite.

"This is as it should be. We plan to hold a wrap-up banquet in Hengdian, does Lin Dao want to send someone over?"

This question really made Lin Nan worry a bit; he didn't go when it started, and if he didn't go to the wrap-up banquet, it would be a bit too dismissive.

But Lin Nan didn't want to go himself, Yue Jun's meeting hadn't ended even after two days... suddenly, he thought of Jiang Xuerou.

"Director Jiang is in the 'The Journey of Flower' crew in Hengdian, I'll let her go to the wrap-up banquet when the time comes."

"That's fine, speaking of which everyone is in Hengdian, I haven't met Producer Jiang yet, haha..."

Lin Nan chatted with Hou Hongliang for a long time, and the latter promised that Daylight Entertainment's future film and television works casting could accept recommendations from Lin Nan.

For this promise, Lin Nan was quite satisfied; people around him would have a good place to go in the future.

The film and television industry is about to change!

In just one night, major news media, Weibo headlines, and central media were all reporting one thing.

The entire film and television circle, Internet industry, and major video websites had cast their eyes over, because this was related to the vital interests of several industries.

"Jointly enforced by the National Copyright Administration, Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, Cyberspace Administration, Ministry of Public Security, and other departments, the 'Sword Net Action' will officially start in June."

"'Sword Net Action' aims to..."

Early in the morning, Lin Nan was woken up by Yue Jun's call and rushed back to the company.

In the office, Lin Nan was yawning, and Yue Jun was also yawning.

"Attending meetings is really tiring, I slept for a night, and my spirit hasn't recovered."

Two whole days, seven or eight hours of big meetings every day, it would be strange if one wasn't tired.

"Tell me, I'm too lazy to read the news. The text in the news definitely doesn't have as much as you heard in these two days."

Lin Nan leaned on the chair, stretched, and asked.

Only to see Yue Jun sit up straight immediately, his expression much more serious.

"Lin Dao, you guessed right. The spring of the film and television industry is here, they are moving for real this time, film and television piracy is afraid it's really going to be gone this time."

"Before, talking about cracking down on piracy was just thunder and little rain, tossing around for a month or two, neither curing the root cause nor the symptoms."

"But this time it's different, the whole industry was called to attend the big meeting, those leaders clearly said above:

This year's 'Sword Net Action' starts at six months, and doesn't even set an end time, it's going to be a thunderous sweep, rather kill wrong than let go, strict, heavy, knock them all dead, to clear all obstacles for Internet enterprises to enter the film and television industry, from now on there will be no more film and television piracy..."

Lin Nan watched Yue Jun getting more and more excited, and subconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

He admitted that this was a great thing for the film and television industry, but from then on, Internet capital could also completely let go in the film and television industry.

Compared to the Internet industry, the film and television industry is really a younger brother, who will be manipulated and ravaged at will.

The phone on the desk vibrated constantly, and text messages poured in.

"Hello?"

"Lin Nan, you really have foresight. Tudou bought so many film and TV copyrights, now that there's no piracy, we are the resource giants! Haha..."

Wang Changtian was crazy with joy; he remembered when Lin Nan wanted to do this, he questioned it, saying wouldn't the TV series filmed later be worse than these old dramas?

It was happy because of piracy first, wait until later to see, it won't make you happy to death!

"Say hello to Wanda, then notify Wang Wei, continue to increase the purchase of TV series, movies, and other copyrights, pick the best quality to buy first..."

Lin Nan's voice even carried a hint of trembling; it's likely Youku and the others would start doing this, but it was already too late, they were lagging too far behind.

This time Wang Changtian didn't hesitate at all, agreeing very decisively, "Good, good..."

Yue Jun was already tired of talking, drinking tea there, he looked at Lin Nan and smiled:

"During the meeting, from the second morning, companies were inquiring one after another, wanting to know when Lin Dao plans to let Tudou start financing. Film and television industry, Internet companies, financial institutions, all have."

"Everyone's sense of smell is so sensitive, wanting to know when to start financing? Wait until it has to be financed."

Lin Nan said a riddle with a smile.

The "have to be financed" he said doesn't mean the kind that is almost out of money, but when the external environment forces you to finance and list.

By then, it will definitely be the hottest time in the market, and also the time when Tudou has accumulated the most, and everyone recognizes its potential and explosive power after listing.
