Chapter 113 Blue Dragon Award!end of year
A few days ago, the organizing committee of South Korea's Blue Dragon Film Awards announced the shortlist for this year's 15 awards, of which League of Thieves won six.

Highest Box Office Award, Best New Actor, Best Action Design, Popular Star Award, Best Director, Best Film.

CJ Entertainment spared no effort to promote the movie.

Li Mu doesn't plan to go, he can just let the crew accept the award on his behalf. He doesn't need the Korean Blue Dragon Award to clear his name.

I used the excuse of post-production on "2012" and just pushed it.

"Director Li is not coming?" Quan Zhixian was walking on the red carpet with the crew at this time. He was a little disappointed when he saw that Li Mu did not come with the Huaxia team.

The red carpet time of the "Treasure League" crew is the prime time, where big names gather and the exposure is the best.

This is also a preferential treatment given by the organizing committee.

"Director Li is still busy with "2012" and can't come." Liang Jiahui explained.

He could tell that Li Mu didn't care at all whether he won or not.

How willful, Liang Jiahui thought to himself.

If it had been another director, he would have rushed here long ago. This would still be a moderate honor.

But if it were Li Mu, he could understand it if he thought about it carefully.

Golden Jackpot has completely filled up the film schedule in the mainland, and theater chains only want to make money. As long as people watch Golden Jackpot, they don't care about other movies.

When Jia Zhangke screened his film "The Good Guys" at Peking University, he once said something that won applause from the audience: "I want to see who is still paying attention to the 'good guys' in this era of 'gold'".

Li Mu felt that what he said was "sour", but the two movies were not on the same level in the eyes of the audience.

"The Good Man", which is destined to be only noticed by the minority, will definitely become the "love-sacrifice" version of "Golden Armor" chosen by the public.

In recent years, big-budget martial arts films have been released one after another, and Li Mu also felt a little emotional.

This is an era in which martial arts blockbusters are rampant. Ever since "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" tasted the sweetness at the American Oscars, Chinese directors have been rushing to film similar themes like a hungry tiger.

While their repeated defeats have caused domestic and foreign audiences to feel aesthetic fatigue, will they also allow some people to see the filmmakers' persistence in Chinese films?
This Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film is really a complex of these directors.

Li Mu originally wanted to take Liu Yifei, a little girl, for a stroll, but she was refused, saying that she would not disturb Li Mu's work.

Li Mu had no choice but to take her to visit Industrial Light and Magic, then to Crystal Pictures, and then to DreamWorks Animation to watch "Kung Fu Panda" which was in production.

It was hard for a girl to refuse this panda, and Liu Yifei smiled happily after reading it.

"Ah Mu, when will this movie be released? Pandas are so cute. I want to raise one too." Liu Yifei's eyes were full of love.

"When you grow up, you can still be angry after two palms. You win." Li Mu smiled. What is this little girl thinking? She also wants to raise a bear. Although he is stupid and cute, his palm strength is not Just joking with you.

"But we can adopt one." Li Mu thought for a moment and remembered that domestic adoptions are allowed and will not be sent to other countries after adoption.

It's just that the cost of adoption is high, and the panda can only stay in the base and cannot follow the adopter.

"really?"

Liu Yifei's face was full of expectations and her mind was filled with daydreams.

The Blue Dragon Awards have been announced. "The Treasure Hunt" won the highest box office award, best action design, popular star award, and best film.

Li Mu delivered his acceptance speech remotely, and the crew accepted the award on his behalf.

"Treasure Hunters" successfully completed its mission, and the top executives of China Film and CJ were laughing from ear to ear.

I can’t wait to see more movies a year.

Li Mu currently has no movie plans at hand except focusing on the later stages of "2012", which has attracted the attention of many film companies.

This represents an opportunity. Even if they just participate in investment, they are willing to do so.

Over the years, those who participated in Li Mu's films have made a lot of money, even if they are scraps.

Mengying Media not only has movies blooming, but its first TV series "Soldier Assault" premiered on Imperial Channel. Although it is not a prime time, it slowly started to become popular due to Mengying's deliberate promotion.

The senior executives of Imperial TV Station thought they were selling out favors, but they didn't expect to get a surprise.

Seeing the ratings data skyrocketing, it was a bit unbelievable for a moment.

Everyone knows the trend of TV dramas in recent years, and the popular routines have been engraved in their minds.

This three-no TV series was able to break out of the crowd, which really made the industry feel a bit unreal.

Some actresses are also a little distressed. There is not even a single female character in this show, and if it can still be a hit, why do we need to do it?

The media are not just freeloaders. The popularity of this TV series is due to contrast, and it is the best way to attract traffic.

I write drafts one after another, but someone will read them anyway.

The positive reviews online are one after another.

"Damn, this show made me cry."

"Shi Jin and Gao Cheng were riding through Tiananmen Square in a car. Shi Jin was crying in the car, and I was crying in front of the TV!"

"This is one of the best dramas this year. The three actresses are all wonderful. The village beauty, the saleswoman, and the female drug dealer. Do you remember it?"

"I am a woman and I like to watch them all."

Wang Changtian watched the popularity of "Soldier Assault" in the light and almost slapped himself.

Fortunately, I was willing to lose money and invest in order to gain a big advantage, otherwise I would not be laughed at as a Muggle by the industry this time.

Wang Changtian could even imagine the mocking faces of those people when he gave up investing and attended various banquets.

He quickly called Li Mu to thank him.Liu Weijuan also felt that it was a bit unreal. No one could have predicted the popularity of this drama.

Otherwise, the script would have been around for more than four years and no one would have dared to take over.

These days, various TV stations are calling, wanting to buy the second round broadcast rights of "Soldier Assault".

The place of negotiation this time was different, it was set at Mengying Media.

The initiative has returned to Mengying.

Liu Yifei, who was accompanying Li Mu in post-production at Industrial Light & Magic, was also a little unbelievable.

"So your company's drama became such a hit?"

Liu Yifei's little head is still a little hard to turn around.

"You can have a look."

Li Mu gave her a suggestion. Maybe Liu Yifei would like to watch this TV series.

"Amu, is your company going to turn to TV series? Do you want me to help you? I have a lot of fans."

Liu Yifei was still a little proud when she said this.

Since the release of the Divine Eagle, the number of fans has increased dramatically.

"You?" Li Mu thought for a moment and shook his head slightly.

"That's not necessary. Your popularity has already reached its ceiling through TV dramas, so there's little point in acting again. Mengying's TV dramas are controlled by professionals, so there's no need for you to take action yourself."

"All right!"

Liu Yifei sat next to Li Mu boredly, looking at him concentrating on his work, her beautiful eyes shining brightly.

Domestic Lunar New Year movies are still struggling, and Andy Lau's "Ink Attack" ultimately failed to break the 6000 million mark and only collected [-] million at the box office.

On the other hand, news came out from the "City of Hurt" side that Leonardo bought the U.S. rights to "City of Hurt". This news actually gave a lot of popularity.

The box office of Golden Armor has exceeded 1.5 million yuan and continues to grow with an average daily box office of about 1500 million yuan.

The media once again issued an article saying that it is expected to break the 3.5 million yuan box office record set by "Titanic" in China.

The last time I posted an article was on "The Treasure Hunters". Even the title and content of the article were not changed, but the name of the movie was changed.

Liu Yifei has been in the beautiful country for a while, and after thinking about it, she decided to return to China first, because Li Mu talked to her about this year's New Year a few days ago.

Liu Yifei immediately became nervous and dangled in front of Li Mu for a while. The last time she asked Liu Xiaoli, she thought it was for the future, but she didn't expect that she would have to use it this year.

Li Mu kept comforting him, but it didn't work at all.

In the end, Liu Yifei decided to go back early, and she had to ask experienced people again. For an inexperienced person like Li Mu, it would be unconvincing to comfort her.

"Crystal, don't you want to stay a little longer?"

David once again took on the role of driver.

Liu Yifei shook her head, "No, there is still something going on over there in China. David, your boss is leaving it to you."

"Don't worry, I, David, will do what I say, right, boss!"

David still looked a little proud at this time.

Li Mu couldn't help but nodded. Over the years, it's hard to say in other aspects, but in terms of work, this guy is really like this, otherwise Li Mu of Crystal Pictures wouldn't be able to trust him to take care of it.

After sending Liu Yifei away, Li Mu started a new round of work.

Li Mu had to keep a close eye on the pre-production of "2012" so that he would have some free time in the later stages.

Li Mu is also thinking about whether to make a movie during the gap period. After more than two years of post-production, it would be hard to make a movie.

Emperor Yang also called recently. The post-production of "Ip Man" has been completed and the schedule has been selected in the middle of next year.

There's "Spider-Man 3" in May and "Transformers" in July.

Emperor really doesn't want to run into these Hollywood blockbusters that are destined to hit the box office. There have been enough failed movies in the past few years, and the latest one may even suffer from toothache.

After Li Mu discussed with him, the date was finally set for June.

The box office performance of Golden Armor gave Zhang Weiping unparalleled confidence, and he directly responded to Jia Zhangke.

"I'm too lazy to pay attention to him (referring to Jia Zhangke). Didn't his film just win a Golden Lion? It's not like we haven't won it before. We just got the rest."

In the end, he even criticized the chairman of Venice Film Festival.

Fortunately, Lao Mouzi was well-liked in the circle and the incident did not become a big deal in the end. However, for Zhang Weiping's remarks, Lao Mouzi ultimately took all the responsibility.

Li Mu was dumbfounded after seeing it. This guy really dares to talk about anything. I wonder if he will come to the film conference at the end of the year when the leaders are present. Li Mu has other expectations.

The year-end meeting was about to be held, and Han Sanping called Li Mu specifically. As the current box office champion of Chinese movies this year, it would be inappropriate for Li Mu not to participate.

Leaders of relevant departments will participate, which can be regarded as a report card for the film industry this year.

Nortel's leaders are in high spirits and have already written their speeches early. There are too many things worthy of mentioning this year.

Regardless of Zhang Yimou or Li Mu, whose film can become the champion this year, it belongs to Nortel.

The leaders did not hesitate when writing the manuscript, and directly wrote the word "Guanya" heavily on it.

As for teaching performance, Li Mu alone is enough, while other colleges are mediocre.
