Chinese Entertainment 2017: Starting from the Top Writers

Chapter 386: Exposure, Oda's Discovery
There was a brief silence at the entrance of Shanghai Film Studio.

Then, like boiling water, the scene began to boil!
"Mr. Wang! You just said that Shanghai Film Group is going to invest 500 million in Fanhua?"

"Mr. Wang, may I ask what considerations led Shanghai Film Group to make this decision?"

"Mr. Wang, it seems difficult to recover the cost with this investment. I wonder if Shanghai Film Group is ready to lose money?"

"Teacher Nanxun, when will the auditions for Fanhua begin? What are your thoughts on the actors?"

"Teacher Nanxun, as far as I know, today is the last day for auditions for Xinghan Canlan. Xinghan's investment is as high as 4 million, which has set a record in the ancient idol drama sector. May I ask how much is the total investment in Fanhua Nanxun Culture?"

"Teacher Nanxun, as President Wang said, Shanghai Film Group will invest 5 million to build a film and television base for Fanhua. Is it possible that the total investment in Fanhua will exceed billion?"

"Mr. Wang..."

"Teacher Nanxun..."

The media reporters at the scene were excited, and the microphones were almost touching Lin Li and the other man's faces. The flash lights and the sounds of cameras gathered together, and the atmosphere was very lively.

Big deal! Big event!
Wang Jianer raised his hands and pressed them down, looking around.

"Everyone, I can tell you for sure that the 500 million investment is definitely correct, and we will add more money later depending on the situation."

Wang Jianer never stops making shocking remarks and makes another bombshell statement!
Lin Li raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at the kind-looking middle-aged man next to him.

He didn't expect that this person was so courageous.

"Mr. Wang, have you thought carefully about this decision?"

"Mr. Wang, do you believe that Fanhua will be a big hit and will recoup the cost?"

"Although Fanhua is well-known and is the work of Teacher Nanxun, for such a huge investment, doesn't Mr. Wang consider the rate of return?"

"Mr. Wang..."

Wang Jianer looked at the excited media in front of him with a calm smile and was very satisfied with their reactions.

When he felt the heat was about right, Wang Jianer raised his arm and pressed his hand again.

"As we all know, "Flowering Flowers 12" was published by Mr. Nanxun in Harvest Magazine. It quickly aroused enthusiastic response soon after its release and was rated as the number one novel in the domestic novel rankings in 12 by the Novel Society."

"In 13, Fanhua was rated as the No. 13 Chinese Book of by the Chinese Book Review Society, and won the Novelist of the Year Award at the th Chinese Literature Media Awards, as well as the Novelist of the Year Award at the st Lu Xun Culture Awards."

"In August 15, Fanhua won the 8th Mao Dun Literature Prize."

"Fang Hua tells the story of the cultural appearance of Shanghai in the 1990s. It is the Shanghai in people's memory and the Shanghai in the turbulent transformation of big cities. It condenses the turning point of personal destiny under the tide of the times."

“There is no doubt that the 1990s was an era of rapid development, but also an era of great changes and elimination.”

"The description of the Yellow River street lights, debauchery, sensuality, and beautiful women in "Flowers" by Teacher Nanxun is people's memory of the past, and the filter added to it is bright and colorful."

"We at Shanghai Film Group will make this film, which can highlight the culture of our Magic City, even if we lose money."

"Besides...when has our teacher Nanxun ever failed? Hmm?"

Wang Jianer's tone was passionate, and his last rhetorical question left all the media present speechless.

Because it sounds like there really isn't a problem, right?

"Let me add one more thing. First of all, I can confirm that Fanhua will hold actor auditions on the 26th of this month. The auditions will be led by Director Wang. In order to fit the characters, most of the roles will be played by local actors in Shanghai."

"In addition, the film and television base invested by Shanghai Film Group can be used for a long time, so it is not completely included in the investment of Fanhua. In addition, we will work with Penguin Pictures to invest a total of 3 million to create the work Fanhua."

"In addition, I will provide the script and Director Wang Jiawei will direct it, striving to create a visual feast for everyone."

"As for Xinghan, I won't talk about him here."

Lin Li and Wang Jianer stood side by side in a row, tall and with clear voices and a steady tone that showed their immense confidence.

There was an uproar at the scene. No one expected that the investment of Shanghai Film Group was not fully included in the investment of Fanhua. In addition, another 300 million yuan was needed to create this drama. It was a huge investment!

"Teacher Nanxun, besides the male lead Hu Ge, which other local actors from Shanghai will be participating in the filming of Fan Hua?"

"Teacher Nanxun, may I ask why you don't personally direct Fanhua?"

"Teacher Nanxun, I heard that your new movie, Better Days, is already in post-production. What are your box office expectations for this film? Do you think it can surpass the box office of Sadness?"

"Teacher Nanxun..."

The media's cameras were stretched out longer and longer, and seeing something was wrong, Wang Jianer quickly called for the security personnel nearby to protect them and barely blocked this group of emotional reporters.

"Okay, everyone. Please continue to pay attention to the official websites of Shanghai Film Group and Nanxun Culture for follow-up information. That's all. Thank you."

Wang Jianer walked up to him and greeted him with a smile, then extended his hand to invite Lin Li to come into the studio for a detailed discussion. Lin Li had no objection, and after nodding and smiling, he also extended his hand politely.

Wang Jianer smiled brightly, then he lightly supported Lin Li's shoulder and they walked away together.

On both sides of them, a group of senior executives from Shanghai Film Group automatically split into two rows and watched them go ahead, then followed them and walked slowly behind them.

Not far away, there were many media outlets who were reluctant to leave.

The photo of Lin Li and Wang Jianer walking away side by side just now was also faithfully recorded by them.

They have to send out this big news quickly!
-

Shanghai Theatre Academy canteen.

At mealtime, the cafeteria was already packed with people, with the sounds of laughter and noise interweaving into one. There was a long queue at each food pick-up counter, and the hall, which could accommodate hundreds of people dining at the same time, was packed.

Tian Xiwei and her three roommates, including Zhang Yaqin, were also chatting and laughing while having lunch. The cafeteria was bustling with people, and it was the peak meal time, and the scene was lively. Almost everyone who passed by Tian Xiwei would subconsciously stop to look at her face. As the most popular actress currently studying at the Shanghai Theatre Academy, she was also a highly regarded figure in the academy.

"Oh my god! Nan Da has come to the Magic City!"

Following a girl's exclamation, many people in the cafeteria were drawn to the scene and looked over.

"What's going on!"

"Where is Nanda? What are you doing in Shanghai?"

"Tell me the address right now, I want to meet you in person!"

"Will you come to our college? I'm looking forward to it!"

"Isn't today the last day for Xinghan's audition?"

"Just open your phone and check it out. Every time NCU takes action, it's big news!"

"..."

After the exclamation, many men and women in the cafeteria opened their mobile phones and checked Lin Li's messages.

"Xiaotian, Nanda came to Shanghai and also went to Shanghai Film Studio! Oh my god! Shanghai Film Studio is going to invest 500 million to build a film and television base for Fanhua!"

"This base is not even counted as part of Fanhua's investment. In addition to this, Nanxun Culture and Penguin will invest another 300 million to create this drama!"

“500 million to build the base, 300 million to invest, starring Brother Hu Ge, directed by Director Wang Jiawei, and the original author of Nanda also served as the screenwriter and provided the script!”

"What a divine lineup!"

"I thought Xinghan was shocking enough, but I didn't expect Fanhua to be even more outrageous!"

"Xiaotian, you already knew it, didn't you? You must have known it a long time ago since you are so calm!"

"Great! Xiaotian, you actually knew that Nan Da was coming to the demons and didn't tell us earlier!"

"What's with your attitude! How can you talk to Oda like that?!"

"Oda, can you please let us meet Nanda~"

Tian Xiwei's two roommates first exclaimed after seeing the hot search content, and then noticed that Tian Xiwei next to her looked calm and composed. They immediately realized that she must have known about Lin Li's coming, and immediately started to grab her and shake her.

They all hope to see Nan Da with the help of Tian Xiwei!

Zhang Yaqin also looked at Tian Xiwei: "Xiao Tian, ​​you already knew that Teacher Nanxun came to the Magic City, right?"

"Yes, I found out yesterday, but I only knew that he came here for something important, and I didn't know the specific details. As for today's incident... I just found out about it just like you guys."

Tian Xiwei picked up a tissue and gently wiped the greasy corners of her lips, with a hint of surprise in her eyes.

She also didn't expect that Lin Li would cause such a big fuss.

"So you're going to meet with Nan Da today, right? Can you take us with you? If not, you can just bring us an autograph!"

"Yes, yes."

Tian Xiwei's two roommates grabbed her two slender arms respectively and hugged her arms and acted coquettishly.

"Not today. He said he's going to have dinner with Director Wang, Senior Brother Hu Ge and the others tonight. It will probably be very late, so we'll meet tomorrow."

Tian Xiwei pursed her lips, blinked her big, Caroline eyes, and looked at her two roommates innocently.

The temperature in Shanghai has risen as April begins. Today, Tian Xiwei is wearing a printed lace dress with her slightly curly long hair draped over her shoulders. Her pink and tender face is hidden under her slightly messy bangs. Combined with her little expression at this moment, she looks like a lovely and soft beautiful girl.

"Okay, then tomorrow, if possible, let us meet Teacher Nanxun as well."

"If it's really inconvenient, you can just sign it. We're easy to deal with."

Although Tian Xiwei's two roommates were a little disappointed, they still smiled and begged in a flattering manner.

"no problem."

Tian Xiwei grinned at them and made an "OK" gesture.

"Xiaotian is the best!"

"Oda is awesome!"

When Tian Xiwei's two roommates heard this, they immediately hugged her and shook her with gratitude. She had no choice but to look at Zhang Yaqin who was smiling beside her and shrugged helplessly.

Zhang Yaqin covered her mouth and laughed secretly, showing a helpless expression towards her.

Tian Xiwei had no choice but to pout, looking like a comic book girl sighing, so adorable.

But at an angle that no one could see, Tian Xiwei's eyes were slightly narrowed.

She understood that Lin Li would have social engagements in the evening, but these engagements shouldn't leave him without time for the entire evening, right?

She knew very well how much Lin Li could drink.

It's okay for him to come to see me even after a social event, unless... there's someone at the evening social event that he doesn't want me to see.

It seems that "Fan Hua" needs a lot of local actors from Shanghai. That Wang Churan seems to be from Shanghai.

Ah……
