Chapter 774: Audition Intentions, Cameo Plan for Big Stars!

When he arrived at the company, the internet was already full of hot search news about the national teacher's group.

Zhang Yimou appeared at the Capital Airport with Jing Tian, Wang Junkai, and their respective assistant teams after 4:00 PM.

They will fly to the New York Comic-Con to meet with Matt Damon and Pedro Pascal to promote the film *The Great Wall*. The main focus is to conduct it simultaneously in North America and domestically, not delaying either.

And at this time, Lin Nan also realized a problem after the fact: *Operation Meigonghe* and *The Great Wall* seem to have "competition" in terms of promotion lineup and schedule, that is, Zhang Hanyu.

He is not only the male lead of *Operation Meigonghe* but also one of the leads of *The Great Wall*. Isn't this running back and forth between two films?

If the promotion schedules collide during this period, like tomorrow... then sorry, he can only come to *Operation Meigonghe*!

Lin Nan drove home, drove all the way into the villa area, then passed through the large courtyard and garden, until the garage;

The only ones who chased to welcome him were a group of cats and dogs, while Liu Yifei and Han Jia didn't pay attention at all, no, they just glanced at the car casually when it entered the villa, which was truly hurtful.

"You ran to our house again? Did you come at noon or in the afternoon?"

"Came in the morning, you weren't home, I just happened to eat lunch for you." Little classmate Han rolled her eyes and was quite impolite.

"Crashed a meal, and dragged me to go shopping. Hmm, I paid." Liu Yifei teased Han Jia with a smile.

"So stingy? Still specifically emphasizing that you paid? I also 'worked hard without complaint' to accompany you to eat, drink, and play."

Good fellow, this rebuttal was set after set. Lin Nan and Liu Yifei couldn't help but want to laugh, truly worthy of being the daughter of "Vulture."

"You have reason, okay, there are so many cats and dogs raised, not one more of you, you can come every day."

"You say this, I have to convey it to our Old Han."

"Stop teasing her, are the promotion arrangements for tomorrow all set?" Liu Yifei hammered Lin Nan with a giggle and asked.

"Hmm, everyone is ready. Before 8:30 AM tomorrow, everyone has to arrive at the Communication University. This is the first time the film's first stop promotion has been placed there."

Speaking of the Communication University, this is also another big mountain in the film and television culture industry second only to the three major art colleges;

It has five or six secondary colleges that are counterparts to the film and television culture industry, and it sits in the top chair in the news and media industry, and there are quite a few famous hosts and actors.

And placing the first offline promotion here is also because of the realistic theme of *Operation Meigonghe* and the influence of the Communication University in the media circle... In short, the Jin Dun feels it is most suitable here!

After chatting about tomorrow's itinerary, Han Jia "leaked" the progress of *Dying to Survive* to Lin Nan;

And seriously told him to be prepared, saying that the project would have to be launched next month; making Lin Nan look like a deputy director, and she was the director.

In the end, she even pulled Lin Nan and Liu Yifei to talk about the salary of her and her father in *Dying to Survive*;

And repeatedly "warned" Lin Dao that this time he couldn't drag her salary like he did in *The Taking of Tiger Mountain*, she was waiting for money to buy Tudou's stocks.

In short: her salary cannot be dragged, it's best to give it in advance; and the funds for her studio to participate in *Dying to Survive*, go ask Old Han for it, don't ask her. Truly a broken cotton-padded jacket with a black heart and worms!

"Produced by Emperor Motion Pictures, produced by Hong Kong famous filmmaker Albert Yeung, directed by Raman Hui, starring Tony Leung, Bai Baihe, Jing Boran, Li Yuchun, Eric Tsang, Sandra Ng, Huang Lei, and others;"

"Large-scale fantasy costume action comedy film *Monster Hunt 2* officially started filming at Wulingyuan Scenic Area in Zhangjiajie this morning... dozens of media in the industry gathered at the scene..."

"Producer Albert Yeung faced the lenses of many media and promised again:"

"Compared to the previous work, *Monster Hunt 2* will be exclusively distributed by Emperor Motion Pictures, and there will absolutely be no situation that affects the box office of other films in the same slot during the release period;"

"The film will voluntarily accept public supervision, and it is paid supervision, welcoming all movie fans and audiences to join in, for the sake of *Monster Hunt 2* being better..."

"Last night, Huang Xiaoming attended the brand event and revealed Angelababy's due date for the first time... many artists and media people in the circle praised Angelababy, saying she was pregnant but still stationed in the *General and I* crew, her professionalism is worthy of affirmation and learning..."

Early in the morning, the internet was a series of eye-catching film information and entertainment gossip.

However, *Monster Hunt 2* is indeed a big news; but "professional Angelababy"? This is purely a big joke.

Navy Political Department.

During the training period for the *Operation Red Sea* project, the Navy Political Department also had to send people to follow. They set off tomorrow, and at this moment, they were doing the final checking for omissions and filling gaps.

"Director Guo Fan, Director Lu Yang, and all the creators who are going to set off with the army, remind them again within today, and gather here on time tomorrow morning."

"Okay, Chief."

"By the way, what is Lin Dao Nan doing?"

"Lin Dao seems to be leading the team to run the promotion for *Operation Meigonghe* today, he will also come tomorrow."

"*Operation Meigonghe*? I'm quite looking forward to seeing the box office results of this film. The Ministry of Public Security should attach great importance to it, right? After all, *The Taking of Tiger Mountain* was the first film to break 2 billion!"

"Yes, I heard that the document has been drafted, and their system will support it internally, and there will also be viewing initiatives..."

"Hmm, since it is a mainstream commercial film shouldering the propaganda task, there is nothing wrong with this. Our *Operation Red Sea* can also be like this later, letting more people see the spirit of the navy."

"Chief, the news

"Then just let them keep holding that breath, and finally hold it back in. What a crappy lineup, just messing around. Haha..."

If the people from the Air Force Political Department were here to hear this conversation, they would definitely start "arguing."

This is like the relationship between the second and third brothers; the third brother is getting richer and richer, and he's caring less and less about the second brother. Besides, neither of them can afford to offend the eldest brother, but both feel the eldest brother is a bit of a "country bumpkin"!

At the same time, Guo Fan, Lu Yang, Zhang Yi, Luo Jin, Yu Nan, Zhang Ruoyun, Jiao Junyan, and all the other core creators were packing their luggage in advance;

Because they have to set off early tomorrow morning, and for the next half year, they will only be doing one thing. But no one regrets it; after all, this counts as having an intersection with the Navy Political Department and even the Navy itself. Hmm, it's a big thigh to hug!

……

"So students at the Communication University are this gossipy too?" At this moment, Lin Nan felt quite speechless inside.

On the stage of the Communication University auditorium, Lin Nan, Liu Yifei, Zhang Hanyu, Li Bingbing, Zhu Yawen, Chen Baoguo, and chief cinematographer Ning Hao sat in an arc facing hundreds of teachers and students.

And today's host was the same one from the *Operation Meigonghe* launch press conference—CCTV's top "show-off," the serious legal program host: Xiao Sa!

"After chatting about the things during the filming process, let's interview the actors. As far as I know, among the actors present, Teacher Li Bingbing should be working with Lin Dao for the first time, right? After filming this movie, do you have any thoughts you'd like to share?"

Hearing this, Lin Nan and the others all looked at Li Bingbing, as did the cameras and the gazes of hundreds of teachers and students.

I saw Li Bingbing, who was wearing a single ponytail and light makeup today, looking clean and sharp, smiling as she raised the microphone, "'Thoughts'? I dare not say! Haha."

As soon as these words came out, the atmosphere at the scene immediately picked up, and a burst of cheering erupted from the audience.

"Go ahead and say it, the producer is here today too, so feel free to speak your mind. Producer Liu, don't you agree?"

"Yes, feel free to speak your mind." Liu Yifei was also amused, smiling as she glanced at Lin Nan.

"My thoughts? Actually, I'm not bad either. If there are suitable roles later, please continue to consider me, Lin Dao. Hmm, that's my thought."

After Li Bingbing finished speaking, Lin Nan even applauded. She is worthy of being a top actress; she really knows how to talk.

……

"When filming this movie, we must thank the relevant units in Yunnan for the help they provided. Jin Dun even had people following us the whole time, responsible for coordination..."

……

"Among the 'Four Dan and Two Bing,' Lin Dao has already worked with three of them. Can you provide a critique and comparison of the three of them?"

"Each has their own merits; they all have their own unique characteristics."

……

"Lin Dao has worked with both Zhou Xun and Fan Bingbing, the two top actresses, many times. So is there a chance for a second collaboration with Teacher Li Bingbing? Teacher Li Bingbing just spoke up just now."

"I'm also looking forward to it. If there's a suitable role later, I hope she gives me the opportunity, and don't say there's no schedule." Lin Nan smiled and looked at Li Bingbing, who immediately cupped her hands and smiled apologetically.

……

"*Operation Meigonghe* will be officially released next month. We also hope that the teachers and students of the Communication University can support it. We would like to thank you here first. In addition, many of you will enter the media and film and television industries in the future, especially the media industry. We also hope that you can give your support to positive energy matters like anti-drug efforts in your work..."

……

"Lin Dao's movies don't seem to have used actors from our Communication University yet, right? Have you considered giving actors or current students from our Communication University a chance in the future?"

"Hmm, of course. But it still depends on fate."

……

"Has Lin Dao ever thought about coming to our Communication University to be a professor? Our School of Drama and Film..."

……

At noon, unable to decline the kindness of the Communication University, Lin Nan, Liu Yifei, Ning Hao, and Zhu Yawen stayed behind. Of course, the place for the meal was relatively secluded.

As for the others? Li Bingbing had to rush to pack her bags and fly to Hollywood to join the cast of *The Meg*; Zhang Hanyu also had to go to reshoot *Manhunt*, and Chen Baoguo went home to rest...

"I really didn't expect that this place is no different from the Beijing Film Academy or the Central Academy of Drama. It's even 'crazier' than the three major academies. The gossip questions the students asked were really tricky!"

Ning Hao sighed. Not to mention Lin Nan being asked which of Fan Bingbing, Zhou Xun, and Li Bingbing was the best, even he was "given a hard time."

They actually asked him how he viewed Lin Nan? Was he unconvinced by the latter's honors? Isn't that nonsense? How could he possibly be convinced? Naturally, he was unconvinced!

"Which actors in the industry are from the Communication University?" Compared to Ning Hao's complaints, Lin Nan was more concerned about this question. After all, his brain got hot in the morning, and he had made a promise.

"Ma Sichun." Liu Yifei immediately reported a name.

"Sha Yi's wife." Zhu Yawen followed closely behind.

"And that Deng Jiajia, remember? She won Best Supporting Actress at both the Golden Rooster Awards and the Hundred Flowers Awards for *Silent Witness*. It seems like she collaborated with your company once, right?" Ning Hao added uncertainly.

"Oh right, and Ni Ni! Director Zhang recommended her to you before." Miss Liu nodded and said again.

"Ni Ni? Her image, temperament..." Lin Nan narrowed his eyes and muttered. Don't say it, a thought really flashed through his mind suddenly.

"Lin Nan, you don't want to let her audition in the upcoming casting, do you?" Liu Yifei understood Lin Nan, and reacted immediately.

"We'll talk about it later, it's only next month anyway."

"What kind of riddles are you two playing?" Ning Hao frowned, and Zhu Yawen nodded in agreement.

"Didn't I ask you to help me make a cameo in a play before? It might be approved next month." Lin Nan looked up and replied.

"That script of Han Jia's?" After Zhu Yawen saw Lin Nan nod, he fell silent directly, because he had no part in it.

Actually, during this time, when Lin Nan was drawing storyboards, he had considered many things... especially the cameo part for "big stars."

Not just Ning Hao, Lin Nan also planned to stuff Han Sanping, Ren Zhonglun, Wang Yong, and others into it as much as possible, all as cameos, or even find more...

In one afternoon, the news of the *Operation Meigonghe* crew appearing at the Communication University for movie promotion made it to the hot search.

The questions at the event were naturally all reported.

Many people in the industry and online were joking, saying that Lin Dao went to promote a movie, and the Beijing Film Academy was almost poached of a professor like this...

…………

After staying at home for the afternoon, they went to bed early at night. On the 10th, Lin Nan and Liu Yifei decisively got up early.

At seven o'clock, the two began to wash up and eat breakfast, and at eight o'clock sharp, they set off from home to rush to the Navy Political Department... and the driver had been waiting outside the villa for two hours.

After nine o'clock, when Lin Nan and Liu Yifei arrived at the Navy Political Department, it was already a lively scene.

Guo Fan and Lu Yang were the backbone, and Zhang Yi, Luo Jin, Yu Nan, Zhang Ruoyun, Jiao Junyan, Xie Miao, and others were all gathered around.

The people from the Navy Political Department were also taking roll call and gathering, and would announce some precautions later.

"Lin Dao, Yifei, this time we can't even bring assistants!" Lu Yang leaned over, looking like he was about to suffer.

"We'll board the warship directly when we set off at noon, and enter the adaptation stage directly." Zhang Yi whispered, quite eager to try.

"You guys be awesome, if this movie is filmed well. Awards, hmm, understand?" Lin Nan joked with a smile.

"Exactly, exactly." Liu Yifei nodded, giggling in agreement.

"That's what you say, am I the kind of person who can't distinguish between primary and secondary? Winning awards is secondary; filming a good movie is the most important thing."

"Lu Yang, guess if I believe your nonsense?" Guo Fan mercilessly punctured his partner for this trip.

"You are a full man who doesn't know a hungry man's hunger, don't fight with me when the time comes!"

"You're thinking quite beautifully..."

Ignoring the "bickering" between the two, Lin Nan stepped forward to meet a star of the Navy Political Department.

"Lin Dao Nan, would you like to go see the Lin Yi warship in a while? During this period, crew members can go up as a special case."
