Chapter 568: Clamping the Throat, Coquettish

~11 min read 2,050 words

For several consecutive days, Golden Horse has been trying its best to remedy the "public opinion crisis" and "trust crisis" caused by this "major mistake."

Big directors, actors, and filmmakers who have won awards in previous Golden Horse sessions have all been invited out to smooth things over.

Even Lin Nan and Liu Yifei received an email that was "sincere" and "earnest."

Hoping that the two of them could understand Golden Horse's decades of reputation and delete the remarks on the internet.

Lin Nan and Liu deleted some things, but what they deleted was this email sent by the Golden Horse Committee.

Facts have proven that most of the people who came out to help Golden Horse smooth things over and do PR were Hong Kong and Taiwan filmmakers; almost no one in the mainland helped, and they were all singing the opposite tune.

Looking at these people who went to Golden Horse to win awards this year, everyone wished they could be low-key to death, so how could they go to attract fire.

……

As expected before, the funeral at Mount Babao became the focus of media and entertainment circle attention, and the internet was also full of heated discussions.

Especially the thirty-character couplet:

"Heart towards China, patriotic and loving family, laughing at the wind and clouds of the world, eternal success, being a hero and righteous, book friends always accompany the name of the national scholar" was discussed the most, with mixed reviews!

But the memory kill of many Hong Kong stars in the 80s and 90s in the same lens also made the public sigh: time will never return.

For the film and television industry, this is another wave of farewell to the Hong Kong film era, and that era was buried in deeper book pages.

"Zhou Xingchi has not come and gone with that family for so many years, no matter how they shout and kill, he doesn't respond with a word.

But this time, for Xiang Huasheng's matter, he rarely accepted media interviews, and you can still see something in it."

Lin Nan held coffee and chatted with Huang Bo about the news in the circle.

"It hasn't ended over there yet; I heard that many mainland actors, stars, and big shots also went."

Huang Bo said, and flipped through the news on his phone, "Hey? What's wrong with Ning Hao today? Listless?"

Director Ning raised his head and glanced at the two, looking like he had just woken up, "The sleep quality these two days is not good."

"Paying debts, in Huayi almost made a mistake, it's just that the drinking capacity is okay, so he sat in the embrace and didn't mess up! Haha..."

Hearing Lin Nan's teasing, Huang Bo instantly stared at Ning Hao with a gossip smile, while the latter glared at Lin Nan with murderous eyes.

"Oh my, incredible. Really became a billion-dollar director, a major shareholder of a quasi-listed company, this heart started to bloom?! Tsk tsk..."

"Shut up, your grandfather." Ning Hao retorted to Huang Bo unpleasantly.

The latter continued to laugh happily, then looked at Lin Nan:

"Lin Dao, I'm flying to Taiwan on tomorrow's flight, are you sure you want me to help you with the gift money?"

"Hmm, that's right. I'm too lazy to go, just let you represent me."

Huang Bo is going to Taiwan to attend Gao Yuanyuan's wedding, and Lin Nan thought of letting him help with the gift money; after all, he received the wedding invitation.

"It seems that Director Chen Kaige and his wife are the matchmakers, right? I heard." Ning Hao asked listlessly.

"Hmm, this is one of today's trending searches, big director matchmaker concurrently serving as the main matchmaker and witness. The scale of the scene at that time will definitely not be small."

"I'm looking forward to the wedding of our Lin Dao and Producer Liu; is it next year?"

Ning Hao took over Huang Bo's words and teased.

"It's next year. You two can save up the gift money in advance; if you prepare less, I won't send an invitation. Haha..."

…………

Time came to the 26th, the war of the New Year's Eve slot had quietly sounded, and the film market entered a state of comprehensive restlessness.

"Directed by Nolan, starring Matthew McConaughey, Liu Yifei, Jessica Chastain, and others:

*Interstellar* has been released in the country for two weeks, with a total box office of 1.062 billion, the second imported blockbuster to break 1 billion box office this year."

"*Interstellar*'s global film box office has exceeded 600 million USD, and the box office potential remains."

"Produced by LeTV Film, adapted from a popular IP, the film version of *My Sunshine* is officially established. Huang Xiaoming and Yang Mi will play the male and female leads, and Tong Dawei, Angelababy, and others will participate in the starring roles."

"The drama version of *My Sunshine* is scheduled to be broadcast on three major satellite TVs and Tudou on January 10th. Two major young students, two popular young actresses, will have a head-on pk!"

"Daylight Entertainment issued an announcement: jointly produced with Lin Nan Film Industry, the television drama *The Disguiser* is scheduled to open for auditions on December 1st."

……

The news of *Goodbye Mr. Loser* being submitted for review also spread in the circle.

Many industry peers calculated an account and found that Lin Nan Film Industry's films next year seem to be a bit too many, and everyone is afraid that they cannot avoid "going to war" with them.

Online, Yang Mi's fans and Tang Yan's fans have started to step on each other because of *My Sunshine*.

Although they can't beat the "Little Lions," these two families can still achieve "back and forth" with each other.

Without attending the premiere of *Women Who Flirt*, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei went straight to the cinema on the 28th.

Facts have proven that this film is indeed quite interesting.

Huang Xiaoming and Zhou Xun are both subversive performances, and their roles are completely opposite to their own personalities in reality. For Lin Nan and Liu Yifei, this naturally adds a sense of joy and humor!

Until returning home, Liu still couldn't help but want to laugh:

"I have to go and mock Xun; the way she speaks coquettishly with a clamped throat is really too inconsistent; I have goosebumps, haha..."

"How about you clamp one for me to listen to?" Lin Nan teased Liu Yifei.

Just seeing Liu sit on the sofa, her temperament instantly became graceful, first lowering her head to brew for a while, then slowly raising it.

She bit her lip lightly, her eyes full of spring water, looking at Lin Nan's eyes tenderly, clamping her throat, and said softly and glutinously: "I don't want it~~"

Good guy, the tone is bent!

Although Liu Yifei at this moment is really tempting, the kind that eats bones and melts souls, Lin Nan still couldn't help but laugh on the spot:

"Hahaha, sure enough, this is not your style, I can't stand it... I still like the normal Xixi."

"Really, Lin Dao? I can... scared..."

Liu Yifei, with a face that could kill people without paying for her life, flashed a pair of eyes, and even acted.

"Please, Xixi, change it back."

"Look, I can also clamp my throat and be coquettish... Haha..."

Holding her stomach, Liu Yifei laughed herself to death first, and Lin Nan sat on the side, acting as her pillow.

Within one day today, besides *Women Who Flirt*, there were several films released at the same time, such as Lou Ye's *Blind Massage*, the Hollywood imported film *Automata*, and the South Korean imported film *The Admiral: Roaring Currents*.

The industry is complaining, saying that the China-South Korea cultural exchange promoted above has made the film industry cut meat. Because South Korean films have entered the mainland New Year's Eve slot for the first time.

Han Sanping's call came again, and Lin Nan didn't need to think to know his purpose.

"I say Han Dong, you don't have to call me every three days to remind me, right?"

"I'm afraid you kid will play dumb and muddle through. Tomorrow is the film premiere, I must see your person, if Yifei is okay, come and see too."

Liu Yifei nodded playfully at Lin Nan, and then said: "Han Dong, no problem. I happen to have time tomorrow."

"That's good, you two come together. *The Crossing* is the only big project I have hosted that has not been released, and I am counting on it to draw a more perfect period for my work, achievements, and honor during my tenure."

Han Sanping didn't hide it; the ambition in these words is not small, and he still wants to go up another level!

"Alright, that's it, see you tomorrow."

After hanging up the phone, Lin Nan looked at Liu Yifei leaning on him speechlessly.

"What's so good about this film, you are rushing to follow."

"Didn't you say it was destined to be a bad film? I'm curious, go see how bad it is. Hehe..."

"This reason of yours is really unrefutable, idle enough."

Lin Nan stroked her long hair and complained.

…………

"Deserve to only act in the television drama *My Sunshine*..."

Zeng Jia returned to the company cursing; she just came back from talking about "PR business."

The two families' fans have already fought a real fire on the internet, and as the company behind the parties, they certainly can't be so "soft."

Because they are both popular actresses, no matter which side retreats, the consequences will be very serious. Being weak means losing some resources.

The entertainment circle is so unreasonable; right and wrong have never been important; only the most popular one can eat everything.

Just like the "stabbing knife sect" incident back then, the right one has long disappeared from the ranks of the first and second lines.

"It's okay, since *Chinese Paladin 3*, I have been drifting away from Tang Yan, Liu Shishi, and the others. Now it is completely like strangers, just life-and-death opponents. There are only those resources, I won't let anyone, including reputation and limelight!"

Yang Mi said firmly; now she has the upper hand because films are more advanced than television dramas!

……

The next day, there were two most lively things in the circle.

One is Gao Yuanyuan getting married in Taiwan, Chen Kaige and Chen Hong are the main matchmakers and witnesses, and many stars went to attend the wedding.

The other is the big event in the film circle. A large number of actors, stars, and filmmakers in the industry will attend to support.

That is, the first half of the film *The Crossing*, jointly produced by China Film, Huayi, LeTV, Youzu, and Xiaoma, with an investment cost added from 400 million to nearly 500 million, is about to officially hold a premiere ceremony.

Han Sanping serves as the general producer, John Woo directs, China Film, Huayi, LeTV are several giants, Zhang Ziyi, Takeshi Kaneshiro, Song Hye-kyo, Huang Xiaoming, and other stars participate... Who in the circle will not give face to this *The Crossing*? Who dares not give face?

Lin Nan was wearing a casual suit waiting for Liu Yifei; he couldn't bear to look directly.

Liu is also thinking of one thing today; the upper body is a sweatshirt, the lower body is a leather skirt, silk stockings, and long boots, and she mixed and matched it herself!

But there is no way, who let people be born beautiful?

"Does it look good?"

Liu Yifei carried her bag and turned around in front of Lin Nan, with a smile on her face that she was very satisfied with.

"Hmm... good looking." Lin Nan had to admit this fact and nodded.

They say people rely on clothes, but this sentence has to be completely reversed here in Liu Yifei. Even if she is draped in a sack and smeared with mud on her face, she is still good looking.

"Alright, let's go. Lest Han Dong calls to urge you again later."

Happily hooking Lin Nan's arm, Liu Yifei walked out. Of course, the bag had already been thrown to Lin Nan to carry.
