Chapter 573: Six Items, Time to Set Off

As the morning sun rose, more and more people in the film and television circle and entertainment circle paid attention to the film news spread back from Hollywood.

The entire film and television industry was amazed:

Golden Globe, Berlin, Oscars—the first of Lin Nan's three consecutive award charges—has blossomed! And it's in full bloom!

The circle and the internet can be said to be buzzing, exceptionally lively.

Because the last Golden Globe award known to everyone and won by a mainland big director was Chen Kaige's Golden Globe for Best Foreign Language Film!

It's just that I don't know which of the nominations Lin Nan can win this time? It's truly exciting, thrilling, and a shared honor.

Of course, there are also sourness, jealousy, curses, and swearing, after all, the great Lin Dao is not RMB or US dollars.

"The 72nd Golden Globe Awards for Film and Television, the nomination list shows:

Written and directed by Lin Dao Nan, starring Leonardo, Jessica Chastain, Ma Te Damon, and others.

The film *Manchester by the Sea* is strongly shortlisted for Drama Film:

Golden Globe for Best Film, Golden Globe for Best Director, Golden Globe for Best Screenplay, Golden Globe for Best Actor, Golden Globe for Best Actress, Golden Globe for Best Supporting Actor, totaling 6 major awards!"

"The 72nd Golden Globe Awards for Film and Television will be held in Hollywood on the evening of January 11, which is January 12 in capital time."

In order not to affect the quality of sleeping in, Miss Liu turned off Lin Nan's phone last night.

After a large number of industry insiders could not contact the great Lin Dao, they immediately started a "tea party" on his and Liu Yifei's Weibo.

"Lin Dao, shouldn't he take them all this time? Haha..."

"Competing for the Golden Globe for the first time, and getting 6 nominations—this is a unique existence in the country!"

"I used to sigh, we are all mixing in the circle, why are the Cult Leader and Brother Bo mixing so well? Later I realized:

You two are really too good at talking, and every time you say it, you're right. Lin Dao, awesome!"

"Woke up in the morning and heard this news. Yifei, I'm afraid there will be a few more new items in your collection! Bring me to visit when you have time."

"Golden Globe, Berlin, Oscars, this must be a clean sweep all the way, right? A bit looking forward to *Manchester by the Sea*, when will it be released domestically?"

"Isn't it said that the opening film of Berlin is *Manchester by the Sea*? Global premiere! Just go directly to Berlin..."

To be honest, Lin Nan's *Manchester by the Sea* being nominated for 6 Golden Globe awards, and the six most important major awards, truly caught the director circle off guard.

He is only 30 years old, really too young in the director industry.

Under normal circumstances, a director of this age should have just entered the industry.

But Lin Nan? Over the years, from the Silver Bear for Best Director to the Golden Lion, from the Cannes International Film Festival Jury Prize to the Golden Horse Best Director!

How many older generation "big directors" only have "qualifications" and "age" left in front of him.

Even those well-known Fifth Generation big directors, even the top two or three, have more or less mixed feelings in their hearts.

Faced with the "harassment" of media reporters early in the morning, many big directors in the circle had to express their stance.

Because refusal means there might be opinions on Lin Nan winning six Golden Globe nominations, or being "narrow-minded."

"First of all, congratulations to him. He got 6 nominations for his first Golden Globe nomination. As a person who has been through it and a senior, I hope he can maintain a normal mind, be humble and prudent, not be happy by things and not sad by himself, the road is still long, he must not lose himself..."

"Hmm? Got so many nominations? Very good. I've been busy acting in *Mr. Six* recently, and I really haven't paid attention. Actually, he is still young, really don't have to fight so hard for awards..."

"Not bad, you have to work hard while you're young! I was delayed for 5 years, otherwise I would have more drive than him! Looking forward to him passing five levels and cutting six generals this time, sweeping all the way! Haha..."

"I have nothing to say, just five words: animal, animal!"

"I heard about it the first time the nomination list was announced, after all, I am in Hollywood.

Lin Nan is very good, although I haven't seen his film, I think he has that strength. When it comes to influence in Hollywood, he is stronger than me, I have to admit I'm inferior in this point, hehe..."

"Still very happy for him, looking forward to him bringing back the award, after all, I, the teacher, can also share the glory, right?"

It's been two hours since he arrived at the company, Lin Nan just sat in the office scrolling through news, and replied to several emails by the way.

He really didn't expect to get 6 Golden Globe nominations.

The meaning represented by this number is self-evident, that is, *Manchester by the Sea* is a big favorite to win the award!

That's why Leonardo, Jessica, and Ma Te Damon sent him emails one after another, and their excitement was beyond words.

"Calculate the time, it's time to set off, see you then."

Lin Nan murmured softly and got up to go to Tiangong Color. His flight is the morning after tomorrow.

In the film market, Zhou Xun's other film *Meet Miss Anxiety* also joined the battle.

Deserving to be the industry-recognized "apple of God's eye," she really is whatever she acts.

Although the script is ordinary and the investment is not large, with Zhou Xun supporting it, it is still very eye-catching and the evaluation is very good.

Liu Yifei and Shu Chang went to support it today. The great Lin Dao was told again that he had to solve lunch himself!

In the afternoon, the news of Lin Nan's strong nomination for the Golden Globe Awards was still dominating the headlines of film and entertainment news.

And the new "encirclement and suppression" event in the circle also quickly squeezed into Weibo hot searches.

139 screenwriters in the film and television industry issued a joint statement to support Qiong Yao's lawsuit against Yu Zheng, hoping that the law will make a fair judgment!

A large number of people in the circle remained silent because it was the first time they had seen such a "big battle"!

Almost the entire traditional screenwriter industry was naming and encircling that one person. Although it was called "support," the hostile attitude was already very obvious.

Especially counting these 139 people, most of them are big screenwriters with multiple boutique film scripts.

Many of them also serve as film directors, such as Xue Xiaolu, Liu Yiwei, Wang Jing...

When Lin Nan heard this news at China Film Group, he couldn't help but marvel. It's rare to see the circle so united.

It's even more "united" than when the bureau held a meeting to discuss how to deal with artists with bad records!

It seems that Yu Zheng has really offended his peers in the circle over the years.

"Han Dong's mess is another big hole. China Film Group alone has invested nearly 200 million in *The Crossing*. The first part has been released for 11 days, and the box office is only 130 million. How can this be played?"

La Peikang frowned, looking stifled as if he had been blamed for no reason.

Hearing this, Lin Nan subconsciously gasped. Sure enough, it is the main investor; the more you invest, the more you lose!

There was a sentence he didn't dare to say, he could only mutter in his heart:

"Don't talk about Han Dong's *The Crossing* right now, the *The Great Wall* behind it will be like what, it's waiting for you."

"Then why did you ask me to come today?" Lin Nan asked.

At this time, La Peikang changed the subject. "Going to Hollywood recently?"

"Hmm, yes, the Golden Globe nomination list has been announced, and I should go over to participate in PR activities. In addition, the Oscar nomination voting will also start at the end of this month."

"You seem to be very busy these three months, I wish you success." La Peikang nodded and said.

Lin Nan was a bit confused, intuition told him that La Peikang must have other things.

"If you have something to say, just say it directly, no need to pave the way with me, Chairman La?" Lin Nan teased with a smile.

Then he saw La Peikang also reveal a smile:

"It is something everyone is happy to see that you win awards outside. At least on the side of China Film Group and the official side, it is something to be happy about.

But at the same time, the more and heavier awards you have outside, the more painful and faceless the Golden Rooster will be..."

"That, Chairman La. Xixi just called me and asked me to pick her up. How about we stop here today?

I promise, I will definitely not return empty-handed from the Golden Globe, Berlin, and Oscars, I will not return empty-handed!"

Lin Nan said with a smile, and stood up, ready to leave.

"You, I haven't finished speaking yet, what's the rush?"

"I know what you want to say. In 2009, I didn't go to the Huabiao Awards, I will definitely go next time." Lin Nan still talked about other things.

"Huabiao will be the year after next, I am talking about Golden..."

"After the Oscars, I plan to start a commercial film!"

Lin Nan interrupted La Peikang's words again, he was very confident, the latter would not be angry.

Sure enough.

The latter looked shocked, then pleasantly surprised, but still asked for confirmation:

"You're not fooling me, are you?"

"How could it be? I've already made the script."

"Hmm, good. It's a good thing to start a new film. Remember to notify me then. Any resources China Film Group has, you can speak up."

"Okay, then it's settled, I'll go first. Xixi is still waiting."

"Hmm, go ahead."

Hearing this, Lin Nan turned and left the office immediately, not delaying for a second.

Watching the closed door, La Peikang reacted a few seconds later, "I was bypassed by this kid?!"

A speechless smile appeared on his face, and he shook his head: "Lin Nan, *The Taking of Tiger Mountain* still has a lot of value, at least it can definitely fill this hole..."

Originally said to go find Liu Yifei in an hour or two.

Now Lin Nan has to go over in advance, but there will be a price, that is, carrying bags, swiping cards, accompanying eating, accompanying playing, and serving as a photographer...

He knew what La Peikang wanted to say, but he would definitely not agree.

"Xixi, I think you should go to Hollywood with him the day after tomorrow."

In the small elegant room of the cafe, Shu Chang said to Liu Yifei who was eating a small cake in front of her.

"Why?"

"Because Hollywood is chaotic. I heard that at the PR cocktail party, the women are more unrestrained than the other, and many who want to climb up are even more direct and shameless than those in the country..."

Shu Chang chattered and gave her best friend a vaccination: "Hmm, it's delicious, pack some when we leave later. Thank you Xixi, let your family's Lin Dao spend money, hehe..."

Liu Yifei looked at Shu Chang with a cunning smile on her face, but she just didn't remind Shu Chang that Lin Nan was standing behind her.

"I believe Lin Nan, he wouldn't be like that. Eat your cake, Changchang."

"Ah woo, that's what I said. But he is fat meat, especially since he is a big favorite of this year's Golden Globe, and the Oscars are the same. Those foreign women looking at him, absolutely glowing green... I remember you said he went to Victoria's Secret before, right?"

"Hahaha..."

Liu Yifei covered her mouth with her hand, trying hard to suppress her voice, but she really couldn't control her laughter.

She looked at Lin Nan, trembling with laughter: "I... won't care, you beat her."

"Xixi, beat who? Ah, it hurts, who knocked my head... Brother, when did you come? Sit down, this cake... is delicious..."

The voice got smaller and smaller, because from Lin Nan's face and expression, Shu Chang could tell that Lin Nan had heard everything she said.

"You're something, Changchang! While wanting me to pay the bill, while speaking ill of me, why don't you go to heaven?"

As he spoke, Lin Nan knocked on her head again.

"I'm doing this for Xixi, and for you too. You should thank me, stingy... and you, you didn't even remind me..."

While Shu Chang was muttering her dissatisfaction, Liu Yifei had already pulled Lin Nan to sit beside her, "Here, I ordered it for you, try it."

"Hmph, you two are feeding dog food again, I'm full!"

"Full? Then eat some more!"

Lin Nan continued to pretend to be angry and glanced at Shu Chang. This made Liu Yifei beside him giggle, "Stupid, can't you see we are teasing you?"

"Okay, you two have gone too far."

Shu Chang sat down heavily and patted the table.

"Aren't you going to pack it? Why aren't you going yet?" Lin Nan rolled his eyes and looked at Shu Chang.

"Ah? Okay, Brother."

Watching Shu Chang leave in cooperation, Lin Nan looked at Liu Yifei and joked:

"Producer Liu, really not coming with me?"

"No, I'll go with you when it's the awards ceremony."

Liu Yifei said with confidence.

Just as Lin Nan was about to joke and thank her for this trust, Miss Liu leaned into his ear, her breath like an orchid:

"One call every day, either you sleep, or I sleep, or we sleep together! Hehe."

Good guy, these words reminded Lin Nan of before.

Because filming *The Invisible Guest* was too tiring, he slept relatively early at night, and because of the time difference, it happened to be Liu Yifei's morning nap in the country.

The two often chatted and dozed off while on the phone. For several days, the result was that both of them had fallen asleep, but the phone was still connected!

The phone bill list for that month was a bit scary!

"Besides, Tom will supervise you at all times, Lin Dao."

Looking at Liu Yifei with a playful smile, Lin Nan was speechless. He really named Crystal Pictures well!

"Alright, packing is done. I even picked some for Xixi."

The next day.

"Produced exclusively by LeTV Pictures, starring Huang Xiaoming, Yang Mi, Tong Dawei, Yang Ying, and others, adapted from a hot IP, the film of the same name *My Sunshine* officially started filming today!"

"Yang Mi and Tang Yan's fans have been confronting each other for many days because of the drama and film versions of *My Sunshine*, and have now ceased hostilities..."
