Chapter 1086: Each based on strength?

Li Mu slowly opened his eyes, and the sunlight poured into the room through the gaps in the curtains. Liu Yifei beside him was still leaning in his arms, sleeping soundly.

Her long hair was scattered on the pillow, soft and messy, like willow branches blown by the wind.

Li Mu gently stretched out his hand and used his fingertips to lightly brush away the hair on her cheek. His movements were gentle, for fear of waking her up.

"I accidentally ate too many oysters and kidneys last night."

Li Mu was muttering to himself, but unexpectedly Liu Yifei seemed to feel his touch, frowned slightly, and then slowly opened her eyes.

"Why so early?" Liu Yifei's voice was a little lazy, like a kitten just waking up, soft and gentle.

Li Mu smiled and said, "It's still early, go back to sleep. I'll take my daughter to school."

"It's all your fault!" The blush on Liu Yifei's face was still there, making her look particularly attractive at this moment.

Seeing this, Li Mu couldn't help but stepped forward and pinched the tender little face, "You have to control yourself."

"What should I control?" Liu Yifei was puzzled. Then, seeing Li Mu's gaze, she immediately pulled up the quilt and buried herself in it completely. Then she said in a muffled voice, "Go quickly, or you'll be late."

"Got it." Li Mu said with a smile.

As the two were chatting, Li Mu's cell phone rang. He picked up the phone and took a look. It was Wang Changtian calling.

"Director Li, good morning!" Wang Changtian's voice came from the other end of the phone. "Director Li, have you read the joint proposal for the National Day file? What do you think?"

Li Mu smiled and said, "Boss Wang, you called me so early just for this?"

Wang Changtian laughed, "I'm just worried that you'll be busy. If you settle it sooner, everyone will feel more at ease. This year, the Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day are together, which is a rare long holiday. If anyone does something behind the scenes, it will be very unpleasant!"

Li Mu hesitated for a moment, then said, "Okay, I agree to join. But the content of the proposal needs to be revised. It can't just be slogans, there has to be something substantive."

Wang Changtian quickly responded: "No problem, Director Li, if you have any suggestions, feel free to give them!"

Li Mu thought for a moment and said, "First, the proposal must clearly prohibit various prohibited behaviors. Secondly, you must have corresponding punishment measures, otherwise what's the point."

Wang Changtian nodded repeatedly, "Director Li is right, okay, these are just minor issues."

"Let's create a group later so we don't have to make a special trip to meet up, right?"

"Director Li, I'm looking at you. It's okay if you don't want to see me!" Wang Changtian laughed.

"Then drag me in. You guys can do so many things in this schedule." Li Mu pursed his lips. These people are just idle.

But sometimes a single move can bring in tens of millions or even hundreds of millions at the box office, and some people really can't stand the loneliness, and if they just fight each other like this, I'm afraid it will not end well.

"Pull you!"

"Row!"

On September 9, Zhang Yimou's "As Solid as a Rock", Chen Kaige's "The Volunteer Army" and Tian Hanyu's "Ex-Files 28" were released first, marking the first batch of this year's National Day and Mid-Autumn Festival films.

The eight-day holiday is a rare golden period. Several movies have already started a war of publicity on all major platforms.

At this moment, on the Huayi Brothers side, the Wang brothers were looking at the real-time data of "Ex-Files 4" and breathed a sigh of relief.

"It seems that winning today's championship should not be a problem." Wang Zhonglei said with a hint of pride and excitement.

According to the current situation, judging from the data on the 28th, the day before the holiday, it seems that he can beat Zhang Yimou and Chen Kai. This is also a relatively outstanding result after his return to Huayi Film.

"Don't be so excited. Ex-Files 4 has an IP foundation. It's hard to say whether it can win in the golden period. Let them keep up with the publicity. They can't lose to Rock Solid and Volunteer Army. We will follow them in terms of how much money they are willing to spend on marketing." Wang Zhongjun seemed particularly domineering at this time, "Let the industry see that Huayi is not at the point of bankruptcy yet."

Speaking of this, Wang Zhongjun was also depressed, because from time to time, there were rumors among the people that Huayi was not doing well and was going to go bankrupt.
Although Huayi's stock price is now 3.2 yuan per share, with a market value of 88.78 billion yuan, which is a 2015% drop from its peak market value of nearly 900 billion yuan in 90, there is still room for improvement.

"Brother, we don't have much money." Wang Zhonglei didn't want to interrupt Wang Zhongjun's domineering attitude, but earlier, the 13.90% shares of the listed company held by the two brothers had been 100% frozen by the court due to personal reasons.

However, due to new rules on share reduction and share freeze, the two had to terminate the share reduction ahead of schedule.

This also led to the two men's road to repaying their debts by reducing their holdings of Huayi Brothers shares becoming a dead end.

"Huh!" After hearing the question, Wang Zhongjun also seemed a little silent.

"By the way, brother, Wang Changtian seemed to have invited Li Mu to join the group just now, saying that he wanted Li Mu to be a witness."

Wang Zhonglei quickly changed the subject.

"Well, this is a good thing. Li Mu is a trustworthy person. If he comes as a witness, there will be less trouble during this period, which is also a good thing for us."

Wang Zhongjun said calmly that Huayi was weak now, and if the other companies did something, they might really be in a passive position.

"Yeah! Wang Zhonglei nodded silently.

“By the way, keep a close eye on Xiaogang, give him more instructions and ask him to pay more attention,” Wang Zhongjun continued. This is the masterpiece that will help Huayi turn things around this year, so they have to pay close attention to it.

"I see. Xiaogang has to be serious. If he doesn't, there will be no one like him in the circle." Wang Zhonglei sighed. "But fortunately, Xiaogang's movie has advertisement placement, so the loss should not be too big. No matter what, there will still be a box office of 500 to 600 million."

In Wang Zhonglei's opinion, even if Feng's humor has gone downhill, "If You Are the One 2" still contributed 2011% of Huayi's revenue in 30 financial report.

Such a stylish movie, directed by Feng Xiaogang, is sure to be popular with the audience.

Of course, Wang Zhonglei's judgment is indeed the judgment of many advertisers, so they started betting early.

Li Mu didn't know about Hua Yi's affair, and even if he knew, he would just laugh it off.

Huayi’s success is due to Feng Xiaogang, and its failure is also due to Feng Xiaogang. Today, it still cannot get out of this quagmire and is still immersed in the past model.

"Director Li was a witness? This initiative is somewhat useful."

Chen Hong couldn't help but say as she looked at the messages in the group.

"Well, it all depends on your own ability." Brother Chen Kai nodded, appearing particularly confident.

Although the promotion of "Volunteer Army" caused quite a stir some time ago, as a mainstream masterpiece, he had directed "Changjin Lake" with Li Mu and Zhang Yimou, the No. 1 box office movie in Chinese film history, so there was no possibility of failure.
You know, just two days ago, there were even media reports that professionals predicted that the box office of "Volunteer Army" would exceed 10 billion yuan, and it is expected to become the box office champion in Chinese film history.
