China Entertainment started from Nortel 2002

Chapter 105 Li Mu fell ill
Sure enough, after a while, reporters outside the crew were crowded.

"Come one by one." Li Mu also planned to send them away as soon as possible to avoid affecting subsequent filming.

"Li, the box office of "I Am Legend" has exceeded 5.12 million, which has exceeded your original prediction. Where do you think it can go?"

"I'm not sure where it will go. It mainly depends on whether the audience likes it. I personally hope to exceed 6 million."

"Li, as the second Chinese director to appear on the global box office list, do you have anything you want to say to other directors?"

You are laying a trap for me. Li Mu looked at the reporter wearing a Los Angeles Entertainment Newspaper badge.

"I believe it is more appropriate to ask director Wu Yusen to speak. His "Mission: Impossible 1999" directed by him as early as 2 has already entered the global film history rankings."

"Li, do you think the box office of "I Am Legend" will eventually break through the top 20 in film history?"

"That depends on whether the global audience supports it."

"Li, can "2012" surpass "I Am Legend" at the box office?"

Li Mu finally heard someone ask this question. He had been waiting for a long time.

"'2012' will be an important milestone movie in the new era, and I believe it will surpass 'I Am Legend'."

Li Mu did not hesitate and directly set fire to "2012". This was a good opportunity to promote it.

Sure enough, this sentence instantly aroused enthusiastic reactions from reporters, who all turned to questions related to "2012".

After patiently dispatching these uncrowned kings, Li Mu was also a little exhausted.

"Drink some water." Liu Yifei carefully handed Li Mu a bottle of water.

"How does it feel, to be the heroine of the 36th highest-grossing movie in film history?"

Li Mu said jokingly.

"That's not true. I came on the scene less than 10 minutes ago."

"But you are already the female character with the most screen time in this movie."

News from North America quickly spread back to China via the Internet.

At this time, another bomb was dropped in the circle that had just been dominated by Huayi and Lionsgate.

The 1999 "Mission: Impossible 2" was so long ago that many people can no longer remember it and have no feeling about it.

This movie "I Am Legend" is being released now. The director is from mainland China, and the feeling is instantly different.

At this time, Tian Zhuangzhuang, Xie Xiaojing and others were having a meeting with leaders of various departments in the film industry in a conference room in the imperial capital.

Several major art schools are among them.

Halfway through the meeting, a person who looked like a secretary suddenly walked up behind the leader in the center and said a few words softly.

The leader beamed with joy: "Nortel is worthy of special recognition this year. It has taken the lead in making great contributions to the film industry. We just received news that Li Mu, a first-year graduate student in Nortel's directing department, has directed a film that has been Global film history has reached the box office! Other colleges and universities should learn more and cultivate more talents for China’s film industry.”

The more Tian Zhuangzhuang, Xie Xiaojing and others listened, the more surprised their faces became. If they weren't in the conference room at this moment, they could hardly hide their smiles.

The leaders of Zhongxi Opera and Shangxi Opera felt as if they had eaten lemons, and their stomachs were already sore.

Is it possible for a director of this level to come up with something he wants?
We wanted to, too, but Nortel had some shitty luck to recruit Li Mu. We didn't have such luck.

The news is in the circle, which directly covers up the rest of the news.

Netizens outside the industry are also talking about it. After all, this is the box office ranking in global film history.

"Now call me the Shepherd, everyone is okay with it."

"No objection, I agree."

"Shit, "Mission: Impossible 2" is still ahead, and Wu Yusen hasn't even become a god yet."

Usually when a movie makes over [-] million, it is promoted like crazy.

This movie has already grossed 40 billion yuan, which is twice the total domestic box office last year.

Many netizens also commented,

Huayi is a little depressed now. "The Night Banquet" is about to be released, and the popularity cannot rise at all.

"Continue to increase publicity." Wang Zhongjun ordered.

There is no room for failure in this Huayi drama. I would rather spend a little more money, at least this premiere will bring out the popularity.

Under the bombardment of money from Huayi, "The Night Banquet" was finally exposed.

Zhang Ziyi now also wants to chase the role of the white-haired witch. For this role, "The Night Banquet" is promoted even harder.

When Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei saw this scene, they nodded frequently. Sure enough, this was the correct way to open Huayi.

As long as you have the resources, are you afraid that these actresses won't give in?

Liu Weijuan is still dealing with Mengying's two TV series, as well as the promotion of "Treasure League".

Fortunately, CJ and China Film Group were slowly pushing for the latter, which saved her a lot of trouble.

Li Mu has now finished shooting the last scene of the movie in the beautiful country, so he can relax a bit.

Recently, people are in high spirits when happy events happen, and the filming progress has been a lot faster.

"We'll finish work early today and transfer to China tomorrow."

Li Mu shouted with a loudspeaker.

Li Mu had a simple meal with the crew and then processed work emails in the hotel.

The competition between Yahoo and Google has intensified day by day, and the prices are getting higher and higher.

Li Mu is not in a hurry and waits slowly. Anyway, if the two companies don't decide the winner in one day, the market value of YouTube will increase further.

Feng Xiaogang's "The Night Banquet" first went to Venice for its premiere, and the domestic media gave the title:
"The main creators of "The Night Banquet" reunite with Shuicheng, Zhang Ziyi looks to dazzle Venice"

It suits the style of the domestic media. As for being dazzling, it’s a matter of opinion. Fortunately, I didn’t use glamour.

Jia Zhangke's film "The Good Man from Three Gorges" was also selected into the main competition unit of this film festival.

The chairman of the Venice Film Festival announced that a mainland Chinese film will compete for the "Golden Lion" at this film festival.

But which one it was, it was not specified.

Wang Quanan's "Toya's Marriage" and Jia Zhangke's "The Good Man of Three Gorges" are just the PK between these two.

The news that Li Mu transferred back to China instantly attracted the attention of the Chinese media, who came to interview him one after another.Li Mu had no choice but to use Cheng Long, Charlize Theron, Liu Yifei and others to block the shot.

After all, he is just a director.

However, the reporters still couldn't let it go. After all, it is quite a gimmick that director Li Mu's film has entered the box office record in film history.

Li Mu had no choice but to answer a few questions in a hurry and left smoothly under the protection of airport security personnel.

"Lu Yang, you and the director team will take the crew to Spring City to rest first, and then transfer to Lasa. By the way, we will have a few more medical teams."

Li Mu had better provide the crew with a layer of insurance first. After all, altitude sickness is no joke.

After getting used to it in Chuncheng, we went to Lasa and then to the plateau for filming, so that accidents could be minimized.

As for Li Mu and Liu Yifei, they will return to Nortel, and graduate students have already reported.

This person doesn’t have to come to class, he still has to go to report.

"Let's go." Li Mu drove Liu Yifei to Nortel in his car.

The two separated downstairs at the Directing School. After all, they were not from the same department.

"Teacher Tian!"

Li Mu had already greeted Tian Zhuangzhuang in advance.

"Come back, sit down!"

"How is it? The filming of the movie went well. If you have any difficulties, please tell the school."

"Everything goes well! I won't be polite to you, teacher, if necessary."

Li Mu really didn't need Nortel's help for anything.

Tian Zhuangzhuang nodded. This student is good at everything, but he is too worry-free.

I can't teach anything myself, I can only help with something.

After a brief report, Li Mu walked out of the college gate, and Liu Yifei was already waiting for her.

"Why so fast?"

"The teacher said that people can just hand in some information. Where should we go next?"

"Let's go to the company."

Li Mu thought for a while, he had been filming the movie for several months, and it was time to show his face to the company.

"Is it appropriate for me to follow you?"

"Why is it inappropriate? Let them recognize the future boss lady."

Liu Yifei blushed instantly: "Who said I want to marry you? I haven't agreed yet."

"Okay, then I have to change it, let me see that"

"No! I'll bite you to death."

"Shut up, you idiot"

Li Mu took Liu Yifei into Mengying, which attracted everyone's attention.

After all, what is posted online and what is actually seen are two completely different things.

Li Mu ignored the looks and went directly to Liu Weijuan's office. As for Liu Yifei, she was sitting in Li Mu's office playing on the computer.

"Do you think the boss is with Xiao Longnu? The rumors online are true."

"It looks like they are together."

"The fans are afraid they will be heartbroken."

At this time, Li Mu was listening to Liu Weijuan's report.

"The release date of "Soldier Assault" has already been determined. In December, the company has worked hard and found Capital Channel to cooperate, but it is not during the prime time period."

Li Mu nodded. This time "Soldier Assault" was much smoother than the previous version. The previous version was broadcast on an unknown local station, which greatly delayed the time of its explosion.

"But the fee, Imperial TV, was to give you 40 per episode just for your sake."

After speaking, Liu Weijuan looked at Li Mu with some worry.

"It's okay, it's okay, 40 is not low."

You must know that in his previous life, Kang Honglei couldn't even give him six figures for an episode.

They were slapped hard in the face in the second round.

This time it will be premiered on Imperial Channel, and the price in the second round will be higher than in the previous life.

After settling the company's affairs, Li Mu returned to his office. At this time, Liu Yifei was staring at the screen seriously, her fingers frantically pressing the up, down, left and right keys on the keyboard.

Li Mu came forward and took a look. Good guy, he was playing "Kart Run" emotionally.

Liu Yifei made a drift and successfully rushed into No. 7, and the character was still dancing on the car.

Okay, at least the game is completed.

"How about it, I'm having a good time."

Li Mu didn't know what to say. Are you so confident now?

"Let's go, I'll take you to dinner."

The two of them left the company together again, and Mengying's people whispered crazily after the boss left.

On the other hand, "Night Banquet" received 800 copies, exceeding the 600 copies of "The Golden Armor".

For a moment, Feng Xiaogang was a little carried away, shouting that the movie exceeded 2 million yuan.

Li Mu made simple adjustments for a day, and then took Liu Yifei to Lasa to prepare for filming the follow-up part of "2012".

The rest of the crew also rushed from Chuncheng to meet in Lasa.

Li Mu, who was preparing to shoot the follow-up plot, felt a little uncomfortable after getting off the plane. He thought it was a minor problem.

Unexpectedly, the situation became more and more serious after arriving at the hotel, and he fainted directly in the hotel.
