Chapter 112

The promotion of "Soldier Assault" has already begun. Mengying Media's first project in the TV circle needs to make a name for itself.

The director took the crew to many announcements and variety shows.

The second TV series "Struggle" is also in the final stages of production. Shi Kang, the screenwriter who once spent a week writing "Struggle", said that the director was a little moved after watching Mi Lai's ending.

Such an ending will inevitably be a bit sad, but it seems extremely real.

As time goes by, November, which has never been a hot season for movie box office, ushered in "Ink Attack" at the end.

When 400 theaters across the country hung up red lanterns "New Year's Eve with "Mo Gong"", it was announced that this year's movie New Year schedule has been greatly advanced.

This year’s New Year’s Eve is worth seeing.

Liu Dehua also personally called Li Mu to invite Li Mu to attend the premiere of "Ink Attack". Unfortunately, he couldn't spare the time. It was impossible for Li Mu to spare a few days in the early stage.

At least until "2012" finalizes the details of various early 3D special effects, Li Mu can slow down a little bit.

Seeing Li Lianjie's Monkey King costume, Li Mu felt helpless.

With the support of Donnie Yen, Li Lienjie, and later Aaron Kwok and Peng Yuyan, Sun Wukong fell directly to the bottom. It was not until "The Return of the Great Sage" that his image was restored.

This Chinese-Western kung fu movie directly ruins this character. Robert Minkoff doesn't know what the Monkey King is. He is clearly a monkey monster.

In the end, "The Treasure Hunt" was watched by 1298 million people in South Korea, surpassing "The King's Man" and "The Han River Monster" and successfully topped the Korean box office list.

CJ Entertainment and Han Sanping called again to congratulate me.

The previous copyright owners had increased their prices one after another, but Li Mu did not continue to hold on, as his profits had been maximized. As long as the price was reasonable, he would not hesitate to sell it directly.

The copyright fee was directly sold for 3200 million US dollars, the total fee paid by 12 copyright dealers.

Li Mu originally didn't want to publicize this amount of money, but Han San commented that it was an achievement of cultural export, so he had to publicize it to let the leaders take a look at the booming development of the film industry in recent years.

Sure enough, the title was posted on the portal website within a short time.

All the film companies admire him. A director of Li Mu's level has such a strong earning power. When will he be able to have a director like him at home?

However, this news was quickly overshadowed by a movie with a main theme during the Lunar New Year season. It was publicized tens of millions and spared no efforts in promoting it.

However, the box office of "Yun Shui Yao" is still not ideal. The first day's score of 300 million is basically unable to recover the cost.

Li Mu promised Zhang Yimou to attend the premiere of "A City of Golden Armor", and he couldn't miss this promise.

After all, Lao Mouzi always gives face to Li Mu, so it would be unreasonable for Li Mu not to give him face.

To this end, Li Mu has been working overtime for several days in a row, making a list of the points and details that need to be paid attention to in the follow-up to "2012". During the few days he was away, he sent people from Crystal to keep an eye on it to avoid any mistakes.

This blockbuster, which has already made people "hide" in the city even before it was released, received unprecedented unanimous praise when it was screened, and it was full of domineering power.

Especially recently, the Oscars have begun to become popular, and "The City of Gold" has been entrusted with the important task of representing mainland Chinese films to enter the Oscars and win the statuette.

It has directly raised the popularity to a place where no one can compare. "Shangcheng" is indeed injured. It is not wise to fight Lao Mouzi.

In December, everyone agrees that this will be the month that belongs only to the Golden A.

Li Mu invited Liu Yifei to go to the premiere of Golden Armor. After all, this little girl’s phone calls have not stopped during these days.

However, Zhang Yimou received a letter saying that he was unable to attend the premiere of Golden Armor in person because he was busy directing the opera "Qin Shi Huang" performed on the 21st in New York.

Zhang Yimou was naturally embarrassed to invite Li Mu. It would be a bit embarrassing for Li Mu to go when he was not here.

This made Liu Yifei a little unhappy, after all, they hadn't seen each other for such a long time.

"Sissy, what's wrong?"

Shu Chang also felt strange. Just now, Liu Yifei was happily choosing clothes, but then she answered the phone and instantly looked like a wilted eggplant.

"Li Mu will not attend the premiere!"

"Didn't Director Zhang personally invite him?"

"Director Zhang can't participate either."

Well, after Shu Chang learned the details, he felt that this was a coincidence.

However, it is understandable that when Zhang Yi is away and Li Mu is there, it seems a bit too presumptuous. Are you going to step on the show?

After all, there are only two people in the director club with a box office of 2 million.

There was nothing Li Mu could do about such an unexpected incident, but he saw a promotional poster for "A City Full of Golden Armor" in Beautiful Country.

Gong Li is directly in the center, after all, she is the most famous in North America.

Lao Mouzi's color structure is indeed beautiful and grand, which Li Mu also admires.

At this moment, Li Mu received a call from Liu Yifei.

"What, you're coming to the beautiful country?" Li Mu was still a little shocked. Why did this girl come so soon and Liu Xiaoli couldn't keep her?

This call came after he had already boarded the plane at the departure gate. Li Mu quickly checked the flight information and was ready to pick up the plane.

Li Mu returned to Crystal Pictures, which was still busy with "Twilight" matters.

There seems to be some dispute over the casting.

Handsome, beautiful actors and actresses of their age who are not famous enough.

Those who are famous enough are either not handsome or beautiful enough, or there is some age gap.

Li Mu looked at the pile of resumes of actors and actresses on the table. The woman at the front also had the masterpiece "No More Silence" on her resume.

Li Mu is a new actor. His age can be seen at a glance, followed by photos.

Very familiar, Kristen Stewart, the Twilight girl in her previous life.

Seeing that the two sides were still arguing, Li Mu directly decided on them and picked up his resume: "She will be the heroine. The male lead must fit the image. He is a vampire. I think this one has some similarities. "

Li Muchun pointed to a resume on the right side of the table.

Anyway, I have to submit the list of characters to myself in the end, so I might as well just choose them directly.

"David, come with me to pick someone up tomorrow." Li Mu opened the door to David's office and sat down directly.

"Boss, who's coming? Crystal?"

David couldn't think of anyone else whom Li Mu would greet in person, and it could only be the future hostess. "Yes! Don't forget the time." Li Mu reminded him specifically.

The next afternoon, David acted as the driver on time.

Li Mu stood guard at the exit, looking up from time to time.

The moment he saw Liu Yifei, Li Mu was also a little stunned, feeling suddenly different.

Liu Yifei's skin is as fair as frost, she is tall, and her waist is slender. Paired with a long black skirt that sways in the wind, and the red belt that serves as an embellishment, she looks very girly.

Seeing Li Mu's dull eyes, Liu Yifei deliberately turned around in front of Li Mu.

"How's it going?" The playful voice was a little cute.

"The clothes have been slightly improved." Li Mu held his chin and looked straight at it.

Liu Yifei's eyes were sly: "Just a little?"

"Okay, I admit, you surprised me!"

"You know what's going on!" Liu Yifei looked satisfied. She had been choosing this for a long time.

In the car, Li Mu and Liu Yifei sat in the back row.

"Crystal, you are so beautiful today, much more beautiful than those female models at Victoria's Secret. No wonder the boss was absent-minded at that time."

David never stopped talking once he met him.

Liu Yifei quickly covered her mouth and laughed.

"Does Auntie know you are coming?"

Li Mu thought for a while, this little girl couldn't have escaped secretly.

Liu Yifei rolled her eyes: "No, I slipped out while she wasn't paying attention."

Li Mu quickly picked up his cell phone, preparing to make a notification.

"Oh, I lied to you. I've already told her."

Liu Yifei interrupted Li Mu with a smile.

"Your mother knows?"

Li Mu reacted instantly, feeling like a showdown had already been made.

"Hmm~"

Liu Yifei's face turned slightly red when she thought of what Liu Xiaoli said about her talking in her sleep that day.

"Ah Mu, why don't you wait and watch "A City of Golden Armor"."

In North America, it was released early, and some theaters are still showing it in order to qualify for the Oscars.

Liu Yifei asked: "David, are you going?"

"Zhang's movie?"

David knew only a few people, but he had heard of Zhang Yimou.

Li Mu nodded: "Yes!"

"Then go check it out. The scenes in his movies are really great."

The three of them came to a cinema in Los Angeles. There were not many people watching the movie at this time. After all, it was also the Christmas season in North America.

"Casino Royale" and Leonardo DiCaprio's "Blood Diamond" are still in theaters, as well as a variety of family comedy movies coming soon.

The overall momentum of the movie is very strong, and the scenes are luxurious.

The magnificence of "Golden Armor" is a bit overwhelming, but the emotion behind the magnificence is even more difficult to bear.

The queen worked hard to embroider, and the chrysanthemum silk scarf was a symbol worn by rebel soldiers and a symbol of immunity from execution.

She tried so hard to get her old lover, Prince Yuanxiang, to wear it, but failed to wear it for her youngest son, Yuancheng. From a mother's point of view, it is always a bit unjustifiable.

A layman looks at the picture, an expert looks at the doorway.

Li Mu felt that the story was not told well, and Liu Yifei felt the same way.

On the other hand, David watched it very enthusiastically and said he enjoyed it. He had a completely different perception from Li Mu.

"Is this Gong Li? She's very beautiful, I like it." After watching it, I didn't forget to comment on the female star.

"By the way, boss, what kind of song is this? The rhythm sounds good, especially the classical characteristics of your country."

"Chrysanthemum Terrace."

David sent Liu Yifei and Li Mu back to Beverly Hills, Los Angeles.

Li Mu saw the Chinese premiere of Golden Armor two days later on the website. Unexpectedly, Lao Mouzi, Gong Li, and Chow Yun-fat did not show up. The starlight of this premiere was dimmed a lot.

Li Mu was watching the video clip of the premiere. Shen Teng was indeed the top student in the military art school that year. However, he was sure that Shen Teng had forgotten the lyrics for this line. The four-letter word was just made up, but it turned out that No one heard it.

With Golden Armor's big-name actors and Lao Mouzi's fame, the box office is unambiguous. In the evening time alone, the domestic sales exceeded 1500 million.

It exceeded 9600 million in the first three days of the weekend, approaching [-] million, directly catching up with "Treasure League".

Various media outlets rushed to report that the golden age of movies has arrived, just like the golden armor.

At this moment, Bona's Yu Dong couldn't help it anymore and criticized "The Golden Armor" for signing a monopoly and exclusive screening agreement with digital cinemas.

This news set off a thousand waves, and Mengying Media was also involved.

Li Mu didn't make a sound, and at this moment the gun shot took the lead.

Zhang Weiping directly denied it, saying that Yu Dong's bombardment was "nothing more than a way to promote the film" and expressed disdain for this kind of propaganda method that "harms others and benefits oneself".

However, Zhang Weiping is really ugly. Li Mu has always adhered to the concept of win-win cooperation.

Movies need to be made and money needs to be made, but putting every penny into your family's pockets and making everyone jealous may not necessarily be a good thing.
