Chapter 116 New Movie

After finishing the script, Li Mu thought about it carefully and felt that he still had to go back.

He also remembered what David said last time.

After telling David to get some snacks and pay attention to the later events, Li Mu boarded the plane directly and sent a message to Liu Yifei before boarding the plane.

"Sing, sing, get up, get up!" Liu Yifei said hurriedly when she saw the text message on her phone.

"Xiqian, what's wrong?" Shu Chang was still confused, why did Liu Yifei suddenly become so angry?

"Hurry up and pack it up! Li Mu is already on the plane."

Liu Yifei looked at the mess in the room and felt a little desperate.

"Sissi, this flight will take at least a day. You won't have time to wake up and pack it up tomorrow."

After Shu Chang finished speaking, he ignored it and fell back to sleep. He had been playing games with Liu Yifei these days and was crazy about it.

"It seems right!" Liu Yifei thought for a while, and it was true.

Drowsiness hit me instantly, so I had to take a nap first.

What was explained to Liu Weijuan last time has been settled.

As soon as Li Mu returned to Mengying Media, Liu Weijuan came over with his newly recruited secretary.

Lu Yu is also Liu Weijuan's junior sister, even though she has been separated for several years.

A girl who had just graduated, was quiet and delicate, and wore black-rimmed glasses.

Li Mu is not too picky about his image, as long as it is not too ugly, it is best to be pretty.

The most important thing is to accurately understand what you are expressing and do your job well.

Thinking about it, Liu Weijuan's junior sister shouldn't have much of a problem with this matter.

The two have also handed over their work.

"Let the publicity department spread the word about my new movie. As for the genre, it is a science fiction romance film, which is more literary and artistic. Don't mention anything else yet." Li Mu ordered.

Li Mu doesn't care how much turmoil the announcement of a new movie will cause in the industry.

Li Mu took the script and left Mengying directly and walked towards China Film.

Anyway, it was inevitable to communicate with Han Sanping and submit the script for review. With Li Mu's status, as long as the script did not involve too sensitive subjects, it would be given a green light all the way.

"Director Han, Director Li is here."

Han Sanping's secretary also came in and announced.

As soon as Li Mu came in, he heard the title.

Good guy, we are preparing for promotion. Li Mu thought for a while, and it seems that the meeting time is not far away.

"Congratulations to Director Han!" Li Mu's first words were congratulations when he entered.

"Don't give me those polite words."

Han Sanping seemed to refuse on the surface, but his smile still betrayed him.

Also, if it were anyone else, they would inevitably be unable to control their inner joy at this time.

"I heard that you have a new movie?"

"Director Han, you are really sensitive to information. It must have been less than half an hour since I made the announcement."

"There are a lot of people staring at your company's official website. Believe it or not, the portal is now full of information."

His secretary had already told him that he had the best information about which director was making any movie these days.

"Award for the prize? Do you have a share to share?" Han Sanping already knew what Li Mu meant when he saw the literary sentence.

"The investment is not big. Mengying will do it by herself this time, but the distribution can be handed over to China Film."

Li Mu leaned back on the sofa and said slowly.

Han Sanping nodded lightly. He had guessed the result. It was like this in all literary and artistic films.

"Are you confident?"

"Director Han, as you said, none of the three major European companies have come to me yet."

Han Sanping laughed and scolded: "Why don't you let this news out and wait for others to find it? If others don't know, how can I not know?"

"But your subject matter is really interesting, science fiction romance."

Han Sanping looked at the word science fiction and found that this kind of thing has not yet been achieved in China.

"I also plan to pave the way for domestic directors. The concept of science fiction is real, but it's just not hard enough."

Li Mu took out the script and said, "The script is ready for review. Mr. Han can help me speed it up."

"Hehe, I'm just saying, I won't go to the Three Treasures Hall for anything." Han Sanping didn't show politeness to Li Mu and picked up the script and started reading it.

"Good script!" After a long time, Han Sanping put down the script and uttered three words.

"I regret not voting for China Film Group."

"China Film Group makes so many movies a year, and this one is not bad."

"Okay, you have to rush to the film festival. I'll get this script for you. You can shoot it first. There's nothing wrong with the script."

Seeing that his goal was achieved, Li Mu didn't stop much, said goodbye to Han Sanping and went straight to Liu Yifei's villa.

The media have also posted this matter on their portals.

"Li Mu is about to start a new theme movie, science fiction love is eye-catching!"

"Li Mu's new movie may be a winner for awards, with a new theme of science fiction love!"

Although there are few successful science fiction films in China, the media do not dare to ridicule them at will.

Netizens didn’t worry so much.

"Does Mu Shen plan to save Chinese science fiction? I can still look forward to making Hollywood science fiction. To be honest, this subject in China is really not good."

"The four words "domestic science fiction" are already a dead end, and the addition of love is a dead end. I can't even imagine how Li Mu would film it!"

"Science fiction love, oh my god, I have an ominous feeling!"

Compared with netizens' fear of this subject, the actors are much more realistic.

Whether it's a big deal or not is another matter, but only after you get this role do you have the right to think about this.

The news announced by Mengying Media is already obvious. This is a movie that is competing for awards.

Moreover, if you don’t fight for a film that is a contender for Oscars for Best Screenplay and Best Picture, you will be sorry for yourself as an actor.

Zeng Li looked at the information on Mengying Media's official website and felt excited. Which actor wouldn't want to win awards, especially international awards.

I remembered that I had a chance to shoot a Li Mu movie back then, but I haven't had the opportunity in recent years, so I have to take advantage of it this time.

Several people in Zeng Li's dormitory had good relations and wanted to fight. They all wanted Zeng Li to ask. After all, she was the only one who had Li Mu's contact information.

Looking at the string of numbers stored in the phone, I felt a little hesitant. I usually send text messages to greet people during holidays and festivals, but I almost never made this call.

At this time, Yang Mi has already won the supporting role of the pretty maid Qingwen in Dream of Red Mansions.

This time the casting of "A Dream of Red Mansions" also made her sober up a lot. Rong Xinda basically couldn't help her, and the industry was not that beautiful.

When she learned that Li Mu was launching a new movie, she was also excited, but after thinking about it, she felt a little powerless.

If it's suitable for her, it's basically suitable for Liu Yifei. This will at least have to wait until Liu Yifei voluntarily gives up before other people of the same age can take their turn.

This is an unfair competition.

Just like "The King of Kung Fu".

Jingtian looked annoyed. She also wanted to participate in Li Mu's movie, but she had already got the role in "The King of Kung Fu" and was about to arrange a series of trainings. It was impossible to get away.

Lu Zheng also gave some comfort. He knew that Li Mu's resources were rare, but the time was not right, so he had to give up.

At this time, in Liu Yifei's room, Shu Chang and Liu Yifei were busy cleaning up the messy room, their foreheads covered with sweat.

"Sing, sing, didn't you say you can clean it up in time today?" Liu Yifei felt that she had been deceived. When Liu Yifei took one look at this messy house, she felt like her head was a little big, and it was too late to look at it.

"It's not you yet. You have to sleep until you wake up naturally. You're not sleepy anymore, but it's a bit laborious." Shu Chang felt that he was naive. Sure enough, laziness is contagious, and the infection speed is very fast.

"How about this? Li Mu might not be able to come up anyway." Shu Chang wanted to give up.

"No, I have to show him my most perfect side."

Liu Yifei was instantly angry.

"Okay, okay, I'll listen to you." Shu Chang felt that he would be tricked to death sooner or later.

Li Mu rang the doorbell several times, and Liu Xiaoli opened the door.

"Auntie, I'm sorry, where is Sissi?"

Li Mu felt a little strange. He didn't answer the call and didn't even open the door.

She is usually not the most active person to run out and open the door.

"She just got up!" The corners of Liu Xiaoli's mouth twitched slightly, and she obviously didn't know what to say.

She had heard the two people's movements early in the morning and was still fussing around in the room.

As soon as Li Mu entered the hall, there was some noise coming from upstairs and he couldn't hear clearly, but the two female voices were still very familiar to Li Mu.

Liu Xiaoli had already gone to prepare ingredients and fruits. Li Mu thought about it and walked upstairs.

As soon as they reached Liu Yifei's door, the door was still open. Shu Chang was sitting at the computer desk and Liu Yifei was sitting by the bed.

The two of them were still out of breath and couldn't lift their arms.

Li Mu looked at the neat appearance of the room. The biggest flaw was that there were no flaws at all.

How could a room that was occupied by someone be so tidy? It must have been temporarily tidied up.

However, Li Mu didn't expose it and sat directly next to Liu Yifei.

Shu Chang was already used to it, "Director Li, I heard that you have released a new movie."

"Speak humanly!" Li Mu rolled his eyes.

Liu Yifei laughed and said: "Ah Mu, let's listen to the movie."

"Do you want to act?"

"Are you going to be the leading actor?"

Li Mu shook his head. Even if he wanted to do it, he was not suitable for his age.

"Then I won't act." Liu Yifei decisively refused.

???

"why?"

"I only play love movies with you!"

Liu Yifei said firmly.

Shu Chang and everyone were dumbfounded. What's going on? Aren't we talking about a movie?
Why can you quickly switch to romance.

This is not scientific!
Li Mu slowly explained: "The character doesn't even have to show his face. He's dubbing the whole thing. Maybe he can even win a supporting actress award."

"Then I won't act either."

Liu Yifei refused without hesitation.

Shu Chang feels incredible, can such a role exist?

But then she thought about it and said with a smile: "Sissi, I suspect that Li Mu is saying that you have no acting skills. I have proof. You won't even show your face when you watch his movie."

"Really?" Liu Yifei's doubtful little eyes turned to Li Mu, as if seeking confirmation.

The little hands have already reached Li Mu's waist.

"Well she's talking nonsense"

"Do you have any evidence?"

"It hurts."

After eating, Li Mu stayed for a while and then left.

Liu Yifei couldn't help but ask Shu Chang: "Chang Chang, you were able to mention that just now, you should be able to do that role too."

"Forget it, maybe a bunch of people will arrange for me to go through the back door."

Shu Chang was lying when she said she wasn't interested. Since the character didn't even have to show her face, there was no such thing as acting skills. Naturally, she could give it a try.

It's just that the relationship is too familiar, which makes it more difficult to say this.

Li Mu returned to his villa and picked up the script. He was also worried about selecting actors. He did not plan to audition on a large scale this time. Quick invitations were the first choice to save time.

The male protagonist also had to choose someone who was more literary and artistic, and the three female supporting characters each had their own characteristics.

The calls came one after another, people calling to inquire about roles or recommend actors.

Even Zeng Li, who had almost never made a phone call, called to recommend herself and brought several other golden flowers with her.

As expected, it is a society of favors. Li Mu smiled bitterly and shook his head.

It's not that Li Mu dislikes this, but he really can't answer the phone.

It seemed that the actor would be confirmed soon, so Li Mu looked at the resume sent by Mengying Media and made up his mind.

At this time, Liu Yifei called.

"Ah Mu, I'm wondering if Changchang could be considered for your movie." Liu Yifei said on the phone.

Liu Yifei's words made Li Mu think more. After thinking about it, he had to say that Shu Chang was quite suitable for this role.

"Is Shu singing's "Magic Mobile" finished?"

"It will be completed in November. Why are you asking? Don't worry she has no other job now." Liu Yifei was still explaining.

"No, I just feel like she's quite suitable. This character is a bit similar to her in Magic Phone, so that's her."

Li Mu did not hesitate.

"Really? You won't choose randomly because of my recommendation." Liu Yifei was a little happy and a little worried when she saw Li Mu agreeing so decisively.

"My movie is going to win awards. Do you think I will randomly choose people?"

"Hehe, okay. Then I'll quickly tell Chang Chang the good news."

"Wait a minute, let's work together as a film producer. It's time to catch up on your graduate studies." Li Mu turned around and remembered what David had said to him.

"Are you saying you can't bear to leave me?" Liu Yifei's bright voice came from the phone.

Li Mu said flatly, "This movie has a passionate scene."

"Wait for me! I'm going to make up some classes first." Liu Yifei quickly hung up the phone.

Li Mu put down the phone, smiled and shook his head. Li Mu originally planned to invite Liu Yifei to participate in the production of this movie, rather than participate in acting. After all, he also had selfish motives.

I didn’t expect that this little girl would want to act in a romance movie with me.

The trace of desire in Liu Yifei's eyes when she spoke today deceived others, but not Li Mu.

Li Mu returned to the sofa and quickly wrote Shu Chang's name in the character list, AI column.

As for the other people, Li Mu directly asked Mengying to notify them on their behalf, and the audition location was at Mengying Media.

In terms of crew preparations, Mengying has already started to take action. This movie is not complicated, and it will be ready in about a few days.

Li Mu's new movie review is already going through the expedited channel and he will jump in line directly. Han Sanping also informed Li Mu that the results will be available within a few days.

"The Queen's Flower" was released in South Korea and caused a wave of movie viewing. A total of 38 people watched the movie, directly winning the first week box office championship in South Korea.

The domestic box office has been weak, stopping at 2.86 million. 2.9 million is not a problem, but it is difficult to break 3 million.

However, it also left "The Treasure Hunter" behind and locked the domestic box office championship this year. However, with the investment cost of 3.6 million, Golden Armor still has a long way to go overseas.
