Chapter 1087 Subsequent Acquisition of New Comedy Scripts
While several companies were still closely watching the real-time box office on the premiere day, Li Mu called Ye Ning and Liu Weijuan to hold a small meeting alone.

The matter is naturally Wanda Film’s business.

It is well known in the industry that Wang Jianlin has been raising funds in recent days.

The bet is almost impossible to complete, and no miracle will happen.

In order to cope with the increasingly urgent funding needs, Wang Jianlin had no choice but to cut off his arms to survive, and a series of assets have begun to be packaged and sold.

This naturally includes the last Wanda Film shares in Wang Jianlin's hands.

"President Wang hinted to me a few days ago that Wanda Films will have changes in the near future." Li Mu said to the two, "Let Ye Ning take charge of this matter, and the group will provide support!"

The first time Li Mu had to go out in person, but the second time theoretically he didn’t need to go through the trouble, everything would come naturally.

The only thing we need to worry about is someone starting a price war and directly raising prices.

But this would not only disgust Mengying, but the shares she would get would not be much more than what Mengying has now. This is a lose-lose situation, and no one would go against money unless there is a deep hatred.

"Mr. Li, should we contact Ruyi Film and Television first? Feel out their attitude."

"You should contact Ke Liming first. Wanda has decided to invest the remaining 51% of Mengying shares, but we don't mind Ruyi and Tencent joining in later."

Li Mu thought for a moment and then spoke slowly.

The entry of Ruyi and Tencent is still beneficial to Wanda Film, but the prerequisite is to ensure that Mengying Media is the major shareholder.

Ye Ning understood Li Mu's meaning very clearly. Obviously, if the other party was interested and did not want to compete for the majority shareholder, Meng Ying would not mind helping Ruyi to acquire the shares of other shareholders and become the second largest shareholder.

"I understand!" Ye Ning nodded.

"The rest you and Mr. Ye are on."

"Okay, Mr. Li!"

Seeing Li Mu standing up and preparing to leave, the two of them also stood up hurriedly.

At around 11 o'clock in the evening, the competition for the first day box office on the 28th had basically come to an end.

The industry was in an uproar.

Because the champion on the first day was "Ex-Files 4" directed by Tian Hanyu, which grossed over 9000 million, beating Zhang Yimou's "Rock Solid" and Chen Kaige's "The Volunteer Army".

If this is the case, it is not too rare, because the IP foundation and fans of "Ex-Files" determine that its first-day box office is bound to be high. Whether it can stand out depends on the next few days of the holiday.

But what is surprising is that Chen Kai's "Volunteer Army" had a box office of only over 2000 million on the first day, which is really surprising.

I'm sure even Brother Chen Kai didn't expect this result. Although some people may not like it due to the previous publicity storm, this is not the last result on the first day.

"Oh my god, there's something wrong with the box office. Could it be that Huayi is doing something tricky?"

"Not really. Didn't they issue a joint initiative? The results will be known in the next two days. It's just that Chen Kai's box office performance of The Volunteer Army is a little confusing. Logically, it shouldn't be that bad."

"."

There was a lot of discussion for a while.

At this moment, even the National Day initiative group that Li Mu joined was somewhat silent.

For a moment, Brother Chen Kai seemed a little anxious and hurried out to promote it.

On the first day of the Mid-Autumn Festival, Zhang Yimou's "As Solid as a Rock" soared to the top, and despite its mediocre reputation, it took in 1.1 million yuan at the box office, ranking first.

"Volunteer Army" was a little more normal, earning more than 6000 million, but it still couldn't match the 4 million box office of "Ex-Files ". This really made Chen Kai embarrassed, the box office was too poor, basically in the first two days, you can see the potential, and the theaters still gave it enough screenings.

"I heard that Chen Feiyu was scolded half to death by Brother Chen Kai."

At Li Mu's house, Shen Teng couldn't help but happily talk about the interesting things he had heard.

At this time, Ma Li, Yan Fei and Peng Damo were all there. They said they came to visit and of course to talk about the latest projects.

"Director Li, you know what, can you reveal some information?" Shen Teng looked at Li Mu curiously. After all, if Li Mu spoke, these things would definitely be true.

"How would I know if Director Chen scolded me or not? It shouldn't be that serious." Li Mu smiled and shook his head. Liu Yifei on the side listened with great interest.

"Oh, it's not that serious. Zhang Yi just talked to me about it a while ago. Not long after the beginning of the year, his son Chen Feiyu was involved in a scandal. Oh, that's not even a scandal. That's a sex scandal. Tsk tsk tsk, even Director Chen was on the hot search list.

Then Director Chen got furious and made Chen Feiyu kneel inside and outside the office for a long time, saying he knelt for a whole day.

He and Zhang Songwen tried to persuade Director Chen to calm down, but guess what happened. "

Shen Teng paused as he was talking and looked at the few people with wide eyes.

"Don't ask riddles, just say it now!" Li Mu said unhappily. Actually, he knew about this, but some people here might not know it yet.

Shen Teng probably only dares to say it when he is at his home, and he keeps it to himself at other times.

It’s just that Zhang Yi is such a big mouth, Li Mu silently complained about it.

Shen Teng chuckled and continued, "Then Director Chen was still angry and pointed at Zhang Yi and Zhang Songwen and scolded them, saying that if they said one more word, they would cut all their scenes together, so the two of them shut up."

"Oh my god, this is so exciting, why didn't you tell me earlier, Brother Teng!" Ma Li's eyes lit up when she heard it.

"How dare I say that outside? Only here, with Director Li's protection, can I say a few more words. Otherwise, what if I get banned?" Shen Teng said, and he did not forget to remind Ma Li and the others, "Don't say anything nonsense outside!"

"Really?" Liu Yifei gently touched Li Mu's shoulder and asked in a low voice.

Seeing this, Li Mu also nodded.

"Why didn't you tell me?" Liu Yifei pouted, as if blaming Li Mu for not telling her gossip.

"What's there to say about this?" Li Mu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said in a voice that only the two of them could hear, "Okay, okay, I'll tell you next time, okay."

"Director Li, although we are not single, you and Yifei are whispering in front of us. Do you want us to avoid it?"

"Get lost!" Li Mu was also amused when he heard that. He couldn't help but kick him, but he was easily avoided.

"Let's get back to business. I read the email you sent me. This script is quite promising."

Li Mu asked them to prepare a comedy some time ago, and now the comedy script is already ready.

"Yeah, I think so too. We were working on this script at the beginning, but we didn't think it through, and then it was delayed by "The Richest Tomato"."

"Let Yan Fei and Peng Damu direct it as soon as possible. By the way, how did they come up with this idea?" Li Mu was also a little curious. The script was indeed very interesting.

"Hehe, catching dolls, catching dolls, as the name suggests, you see little bun is suitable for catching dolls!" Before Yan Fei could speak, Shen Teng said in a mean way.

"Okay, for dinner tonight, Shen Teng and the kids will sit at the same table. My little Baozi is just right for eating with you." Li Mu said unhappily upon seeing this.

"Hahaha"

Everyone couldn't help but laugh when they heard this.
