Chapter 260: This is to form the Avengers Alliance
By the way, Lu Tailang is Lin Yicheng’s senior at the Beijing Film Academy.
He is also a graduate of the directing department of Beijing Film Academy.
However, Lu Tailang’s reputation in Beijing Film Academy is not very good.
Even within the two schools, the Chinese Academy of Drama and the Beijing Film Academy, there is a saying that is widely circulated.
"Jiang Wen from the Central Academy of Drama likes to show off, but he has the ability, so he is awesome. Lu Chuan from the Beijing Film Academy also likes to show off, but unfortunately he has no ability, so he is just an idiot."
Lin Yicheng agreed with this statement.
If Rikutaro wasn't an idiot, why would he shoot that movie from the devil's perspective?
From "Lust, Caution" to "Nanjing! Nanjing!", it reflects a very abnormal phenomenon - some directors, no matter what kind of film they shoot, no matter what the background of the event is, they have to be self-abuse, self-abasement, and narcissistic to create some so-called "glory of human nature" to show off.
This kind of person just wants to win the favor of foreigners.
It seems that if it is not like this, it won’t be satisfying enough.
to be honest.
These people wear the veil of "patriotism" on the surface, but once they take off the veil, their faces are full of their twisted and disgusting pro-Japanese mentality.
Rikutaro, who is already a "bamboo shoot in the mountains, with a sharp mouth, thick skin and an empty stomach", has nothing but a pro-Japanese mentality etched into his bones and a shitty ability! ——
In the past, this movie had several investors.
In addition to China Film, Media Asia, and Jiangsu Optoelectronics, there is also a company called Modou Bailiang Investment Consulting Co., Ltd.
Since it is an investment company, it must have investment projects, right?
However, if you dig deeper into the company's investment history, you will find that apart from "Nanjing! Nanjing!", the company has not invested in any other projects.
It's obvious.
This is the shell company that Rikutaro uses to conceal the source of funds!
Speaking of China Film Group, Lin Yicheng thought of Lao Han.
In his previous life, Lao Han's reputation was very controversial, with both merits and demerits.
He is a domineering person and is known as the "Mountain Eagle".
On the other hand, they often invest in producing bad movies, such as "Stand Up, Meng Meng" and "Sister Zhiling's Cross-dressing Show".
The key point is that he often invests in directors with bad reputations like Lu Tailang and Wu Baige, and shoots films like "Nanjing! Nanjing!" and "The Crossing".
Think about it again, when Mr. Han reached the age of 60, he did not take any further steps, but retired directly, skipping the process of retreating to the second line.
It's hard to say whether this is paying for his previous mistakes.
Now, Old Han has become Uncle Han, and Lin Yicheng is ready to go back and remind him not to go down the same old path and make the same mistake.
As for Rikutaro.
Lin Yicheng planned to let him be proud for a while.
Waiting for his movie to be released.
Lin Yicheng wanted to let Lu Tailang know whether the "Proposal" he had taken the lead in proposing before was just a piece of waste paper! -
On the sixteenth day of the first lunar month, Jing Tian returned to the capital.
Lin Yicheng went to the airport to pick him up in person.
It is impossible to keep a bowl of water level.
It was Fan Xiaopang who took the initiative to find Lin Yicheng to make peace.
Lin Yicheng is willing to take the initiative towards Jing Tian.
After all, they are childhood sweethearts.
Of course, although it is proactive, it is absolutely impossible to admit mistakes.
These are two different things.
This "little cold war" seemed simple on the surface. It was nothing more than Jing Tian and Fan Xiaopang being jealous and wanting to join forces to teach him a lesson.
But if we look beyond the surface, it would be terrifying if these two people really joined forces in the future.
Women are very likely to become more and more demanding and always want more.
What if they succeed this time?
Will they ask for more in the future?
For example, join forces, take the initiative in the relationship, and then try to control him?
Of course that won’t work!
If that's the case, how can he enjoy himself among the flowers in the future?
Jingtian can give her the status she wants.
Fan Xiaopang can give her the benefits she wants.
However, shouldn't they also satisfy Lin Yicheng's hobby of guiding actresses in acting and discussing scripts with them?
Respect is mutual.
If it weren't for this interest, why would Lin Yicheng enter the entertainment industry?
Mencius once said, "Food and sex are human nature."
Xun Ge'er also said, "I am not good at sex. If a flower is in full bloom and I don't appreciate it, it would seem that I don't understand romance."
Mr. Ji Xianlin also wrote in his diary, "I only hope that I can have sex with more women."
You see, so many predecessors have the same idea.
The ancients can't be wrong, right?
Well, Lin Yicheng was certainly not wrong to follow in the footsteps of his predecessors and learn from them!
Of course, Lin Yicheng also has his own bottom line and principles.
Be romantic but not vulgar, passionate but not promiscuous, fickle but not fickle, like new things but not hate the old.
As long as you stick to the bottom line and principles, nothing else will be a problem.
-
After getting in the car, Jing Tian kept looking at Lin Yicheng with a look similar to "admiration".
It was as if the two had met again after a long separation and had gone through some life-and-death ordeal.
There was some silence between the two.
Jing Tian didn't say anything, and Lin Yicheng didn't know how to start.
Jing Tian is not really stupid. She certainly knows why Lin Yicheng avoided her and even did not go home for the New Year.
After returning home for the past few days, meeting so many uncles and aunts, and hearing them talk about some messy things in that circle again, Jing Tian finally figured it out completely.
There are some things she really can't stop.
If she tried to stop it by force, it would only affect the relationship between her and Dachengzi.
This will give those vixen women an opportunity to take advantage of you.
As long as she can always tolerate Dachengzi, consider him and think about him in everything.
Then Dachengzi would naturally feel her feelings and her kindness, and would definitely not abandon her or ignore her.
As for those women, as long as you don't bring them home, you can have fun with them.
Anyway, her big orange is a man, so she won’t suffer any loss.
-
After an unknown amount of time, Jing Tian spoke.
"Big orange."
"Ok?"
Jing Tian did not answer, but just held Lin Yicheng's hand tightly. The smile on her face was very beautiful, and the light in her eyes was very sweet.
Lin Yicheng also laughed.
it is more than words.
"Big Orange, I brought back a lot of local specialties from my hometown, enough for us to eat for a long time."
"On the first day of the new year, I spent it at your house with my godmother and godfather."
"There were performances in the Tang Paradise this year, and the song and dance performance "Song of Everlasting Regret" was especially wonderful."
……
Jing Tian regained her previous lively self and started chattering.
Lin Yicheng just listened with a smile.
He really likes this kind of atmosphere of getting along with others.
-
After arriving home, Lin Yicheng helped Jing Tian pack up the things she brought back.
The first few boxes were normal, containing nothing more than clothes, local specialties and the like, but something was wrong with the last box.
That was a whole box of medicinal herbs!
Lin Yicheng suddenly felt something was wrong.
"What is this?" Lin Yicheng asked.
"These are the herbs I bought after I asked my aunt and uncles for advice after returning home."
"Please advise? What do you want to ask?" Lin Yicheng swallowed.
Jing Tian's aunt is a doctor, and her uncles are very active in that circle and are getting old...
Of course Lin Yicheng could guess what Jing Tian was asking them about.
However, he was somewhat unwilling and wanted to struggle a little longer.
"Please tell me the prescription." Jing Tian said as if it was a matter of course.
"Look, I bought a lot, Polygonatum sibiricum, Radix Astragali, Rehmannia glutinosa, Poria cocos, cinnamon bark, Chinese angelica, Codonopsis pilosula, Lycium barbarum, Ligusticum chuanxiong, Atractylodes macrocephala, Ligusticum chuanxiong, Cornus officinalis, Ophiopogon japonicus, Schisandra chinensis..." Jing Tian recited the names of these medicinal herbs as if he were reciting a crosstalk.
"Stop, stop, stop talking."
Lin Yicheng said seriously, "First of all, I don't have any problems at all, so I don't need these things. Secondly, I'm allergic to medicinal herbs now. As soon as I drink Chinese medicine, I will feel nauseous, vomit, and feel weak all over."
"Big Orange, don't worry, these are not for making medicine."
"What's that for?"
"Making wine. I've learned a lot, such as Shiquan Dabu Wine, Yuanshen Wine, Yuting Wine, Baibei Wine, Di Sui Wine, Zhuangwei Wine, Changchun Wine and Yejiao Wine. There are dozens of kinds." Jing Tian counted them one by one with his fingers.
"No, I don't want to drink either. You know I can't drink much." Lin Yicheng kept shaking his head.
"These are all tonic wines. They are very beneficial. They can strengthen your body and prolong your life." Jing Tian hugged Lin Yicheng's arm and shook it.
"I'll drink with you. I asked, and girls can drink this kind of wine. Let's drink a small cup every day from now on, okay?"
"Just a small cup?"
"Yes, just a small cup, not too much." Jing Tian nodded in agreement.
"Can it really prolong your life?" Lin Yicheng asked again.
"Of course, my uncles and aunts are all drinking this. Their predecessors are also drinking it, it's useful." "Okay, I'll drink it. Let me make it clear, we drink it to prolong our lives."
"Yeah, I know." Jing Tian agreed quickly.
-
In fact, she didn't report the full name of the wine.
Among them, there are two kinds of wine, called "Qianliang Gold Wine" and "Duozi Wine".
My aunt said that this wine is very effective.
As long as you drink it for a period of time, you can get pregnant smoothly.
As long as I can get pregnant successfully, the big orange will give birth to a few small oranges and tangerines.
Who else but her could take on the position of queen?
Anyway, she is an adult, so pregnancy is not a problem.
Anyway, she hasn't entered the entertainment industry. After she gets pregnant, the worst that can happen is that she won't enter the industry anymore.
Her original intention of entering the entertainment industry was to be closer to Dachengzi.
But if you have a child, is there anything closer than this?
Jing Tian's little abacus was clacking away.
But she seemed to have forgotten one thing: having a child is not just her business.
If the farmer is unwilling to sow seeds, even if the land is fertile with fertilizer, it will not produce fruit.
-
In the next few days, Lin Yicheng was basically in the company.
"Taken" is about to start filming, and he has to take advantage of this time to deal with some company matters.
"The Unforgettable Number", after a long period of negotiations, Beijing Satellite TV, Tomato Satellite TV and Blueberry Satellite TV, the three finally agreed to buy it with the basic film purchase fee + advertising share.
The basic fee is 1000 million, and the advertising share is 20%.
This drama will be broadcast on these three TV stations in March.
Liu Kang was helping the coal bosses make those movies.
The progress is going quite smoothly at the moment. I heard that two films have already been shot and they will be ready for release once the post-production is completed.
Lin Yufen has also joined Xinghe Film and Television Company, but Lin Yicheng has not yet given her any projects or scripts.
There are limited behind-the-scenes members at Galaxy Film and Television Company, and some of them are on standby, ready to follow Lin Yicheng to join the crew of his new movie.
The other part was lent to coal bosses to make movies with Liu Kang.
Therefore, if Lin Yufen wants to shoot a TV series, there are not enough behind-the-scenes members available.
So, Lin Yicheng transferred her directly to Tangren.
Ever since Cai Yinong drove Li Guoli away, Tangren’s TV drama projects have basically come to a standstill.
Anxious Cai Yinong has urged Lin Yicheng several times.
It is very appropriate to let Lin Yufen take over the filming of Tangren's drama.
They are all costume idol dramas, and Lin Yufen is very good at it. Her ability is no worse than Li Guoli, and even stronger.
Li Muge, the assistant director of "Heart Love", was also transferred to Tangren by Lin Yicheng, allowing him to continue to serve as assistant director for Lin Yufen.
This guy only knows how to shoot beautiful women. "Taken" is a man's movie and there is no place for him to use his talents.
Let him learn from Lin Yufen and experience a few dramas, and he will be able to stand on his own and become a real director in the future.
-
In terms of movies, "Lost on Journey" has also completed post-production.
Ning Hao had previously called Lin Yicheng to ask when the movie would be released.
Lin Yicheng just said indifferently that he didn't need to worry about it and it could be released during the Lunar New Year holiday this year.
Ning Hao was a shrewd man. He understood what Lin Yicheng meant and knew that Lin Yicheng was dissatisfied.
Even after all this, this guy still refuses to bow his head to Lin Yicheng and apologize.
It seems that he is confident and knows that the box office of "Lost on Journey" will be good.
Since Ning Hao said so, Lin Yicheng would not be polite.
He found Yang Qing and handed him a script directly.
"Crazy Racing".
After Yang Qing filmed "Crazy Nightclub", his directing ability was no longer a problem.
Although "Crazy Racing" also has multiple narrative lines, it is not that troublesome as long as you strictly follow the script.
This year is the Olympic year, and the Chinese people's enthusiasm and attention for sports are growing day by day.
Shooting "Crazy Racing" at this time and releasing it before or after the Olympics is called following the right timing.
-
Speaking of which, looking back on Ning Hao's directorial career, his finest work is undoubtedly "Crazy Racing".
Perhaps "No Man's Land" exhausted his talent and inspiration, and extinguished his passion and ideals.
His subsequent works, such as "The Golden Robbery", "Lost in Thailand", and "Crazy Alien", gave people the feeling that each one was worse than the last, and he was gradually going downhill.
At the beginning, "Dying to Survive" had already found him, so why didn't he shoot the film himself, but instead pushed it to Wen Muye and just served as a producer?
He knew in his heart that he couldn't make this kind of movie because he didn't have the ability to do so.
When it comes to "Mr. Red Carpet", Ning Hao has run out of ideas.
Ning Hao and his "noble man" were on a two-way journey.
When these two people are together, it's like a perfect match.
One completely exposed his true ability, while the other still showed his true colors as the king of bad movies.
It’s hard to say who cheated whom between the two of them.
-
The trendy brand HL is also developing smoothly.
After becoming famous thanks to the popularity of "Heart Love", HL became an instant hit in China.
There is no role for Fan Xiaopang in "Taken", and she does not accept other people's scripts.
Spring is coming and new products are about to be launched.
So Fat Fan became a flying man, flying all over the country.
I will attend HL's commercial performance today, appear at HL's ribbon-cutting ceremony tomorrow, and attend HL's new product launch the day after tomorrow.
If he changed to another brand, with Fan Xiaopang's current status, he wouldn't have to work so hard.
But who says this is her own career?
HL has her shares.
For these, Fan Xiaopang really tried his best.
It’s no exaggeration to say that she is a “desperate woman”.
Lin Yicheng is of course very happy to have such a good wife who can and loves to make money.
According to professional forecast statistics, the sales of HL brand will reach a very impressive figure in the winter of last year and the spring and summer of this year.
After deducting costs, the net profit should at least reach several small targets.
Whether Lin Yicheng can have enough funds to successfully acquire the video website this year depends on how hard Fan Xiaopang works...
-
The company's affairs were almost dealt with, and Lin Yicheng went to China Film Group to meet Uncle Han.
The first is to discuss the investment amounts for the two films, "Taken" and "Crazy Racing".
Besides, there were some other things he needed to discuss with Uncle Han in person.
On the way, Lin Yicheng received a call.
Coal boss, it’s Mr. Yu calling.
After hanging up the phone, Lin Yicheng sneered.
Mr. Yu told him something. Qian Yongqiang, the Hong Kong director who wanted to approach a coal boss to raise investment for the filming of "Painted Skin", had changed his mind.
Qian Yongqiang did not explain the specific reasons to Mr. Yu, but just perfunctorily said that there were problems with the project and it was temporarily shelved.
Of course, Mr. Yu wants to find out the truth.
Then I found out.
It turned out that Qian Yongqiang had found a rich man.
The Silver Capital Agency, which had rejected him before, is now willing to invest in his film.
One is a state-owned film company that has great influence in Hong Kong Island.
One is a layman coal boss who has just entered the circle or has not even entered the circle yet.
Of course Qian Yongqiang knew which one to choose.
-
Last time, Yindu Organization made things difficult for Lin Yicheng and refused to give face to Uncle Han. Lin Yicheng has not forgotten this incident.
Today, the Hong Kong entertainment industry has been defeated by him and no longer has the arrogance it once had.
But a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.
Those people in the Hong Kong circle still have strength and family background.
It seems that Yindu Organization has also set its sights on the leading position and wants to sit on it.
If it were just that, it wouldn’t be a big deal. Who doesn’t have ambitions and aspirations?
The key point is that Mr. Yu also found out that Yindu Organization is said to be interested in contacting Huayi for cooperation.
Silver Metro Group is responsible for the film's distribution and screening in Southeast Asia, while Huayi Entertainment is responsible for the mainland.
This is where things get interesting.
Huayi had a feud with Lin Yicheng, and "Assembly" suffered a great loss when it met "How Bad Movies Are Made".
Because Lin Yicheng hit the Hong Kong circle, the interests of Yindu Organization were also damaged.
Now that the two have joined forces, they are going to form the "Avengers Alliance"!
Lin Yicheng couldn't help but snap his fingers lightly.
He was looking forward to that day.
That’s all I have for today: 5100 words.
I went to the hospital for a follow-up check today, and my right hand is recovering smoothly. It will be fully recovered in a few days.
By then, I will be able to type on the computer, and I will update more often.
