Chapter 144: New Suspense Work
After having dinner with Liu Yifei nearby, the two returned to Li Mu's villa.

The two of them were already inseparable late at night, and it didn't matter whether they were on the phone or not.

When it comes, he has to press it down.

Fortunately, Li Mu didn't lose the bet.

Liu Xiaoli did not call in the end.

In the early morning, Li Mu got up early, while Liu Yifei usually didn't get up until she was tired.

It was still early for her to get up.

Li Mu didn't plan to go to Mengying today. Isn't making money just to enjoy life?

After preparing breakfast, I exercised outside the villa for a while, took a bath, and prepared to wake up Liu Yifei.

At this time, Liu Yifei opened her eyes, her eyes were sleepy and she felt like she was still in a dream.

"Hold me!" His arms tightly wrapped around Li Mu's neck, as if he refused to let go.

Li Mu had no choice but to hug the princess and carry her into the bathroom.

"I have to go to Phoenix City tomorrow. Do you want to go with me?" Li Mu asked while taking a bite of a small piece of bread.

""Painted Skin"? I'll go too!" Liu Yifei was very interested.

"Then what did you and aunt say?" Li Mu smiled evilly. He was curious about what Liu Yifei would say.

Liu Yifei dialed the phone in front of Li Mu without hesitation, "Mom, A Mu has something to tell you."

After saying that, he handed it to Li Mu with a smile.

Li Mu was almost fooled by Liu Yifei's combo. Fortunately, he reacted quickly and quickly answered the phone, "Auntie, it's like this."

It took Li Mu ten sentences to finally express what Liu Yifei could have solved in one sentence.

Putting down the phone, looking at Liu Yifei with a proud look on her face, she dragged her back to the room and gave her a severe lesson.

Liu Yifei came out of the room, her eyes still full of spring and slightly charming.

""Assembly" was really not filmed by Feng Xiaogang?" Liu Yifei looked at the news on the computer and asked Li Mu.

???

Li Mu was a little confused, so what do you mean it wasn't taken by Feng Xiaogang?
Li Mu stepped forward and looked at it carefully, and said "good guy" directly.

Now the entire media is bombarded with rumors, including the news that Transformers is about to premiere.

The person who broke the news seemed to be a bit unsophisticated. He directly said that Feng Xiaogang had hired a hotshot. Feng Xiaogang was rarely seen at the scene and was busy directing and acting in commercials to make money.

The whistleblower also used the posters and trailers of the two films "Assembly" and "The Flying Taigeuk Flag" as evidence, which are exactly the same.

For example, there are too many similarities in the explosion scenes, the use of lenses, and even the shapes in the film.

It's so clear-cut that it's hard not to doubt the truth.

No wonder Liu Yifei would be suspicious. If Huayi didn't respond quickly, it would be either shit or shit and it would be directly placed on Feng Xiaogang's head.

Fortunately, Huayi's reply was quite timely, and a bunch of actors came out to testify.

The main reason is that apart from these few supporting evidences, there is no actual evidence to follow.

The possibility of proxy shooting for "Assembly Number" is very small. The director's shooting habits and techniques are difficult to deceive people in the industry, and Li Mu knows it well.

As the producer of "Painted Skin", Li Mu would go over from time to time to check on Lu and Yang's filming.

Otherwise, if his name is used, the final film will not be good, which will not only ruin his face, but also ruin Mengying's reputation for good movies.

There was not much left to shoot for "Painted Skin". The first thing Li Mu did when he came back was to go over and take a look at the results of the past few days of shooting.

As for Liu Yifei, she was watching the crew filming.

"Yifei, did you come here with Director Li?" Everyone in the circle knew about the relationship between the two. Zhou Xun took advantage of his break to say hello to Liu Yifei.

Liu Yifei nodded, admiring Zhou Xun's acting skills: "Sister Xun, you are really good at acting as a fox."

"Your acting skills will be better than mine in the future." Zhou Xun smiled. Liu Yifei followed Li Mu, and her resources were much better than mine. Maybe one day she could surpass her.

"Are you joining the cast soon?" Zhou Xun also always pays attention to the news. The Hollywood A-level production "Inception" has been approved and actors are being selected.

However, the important roles seem to have already been decided, with Leonardo playing the male lead and Marion Cotillard playing the female lead.

Zhou Xun also had to envy the girl in front of him. This resource was so good that it made people jealous.

You must know that "The King of Kung Fu" is a B-level production in Hollywood. However, except for Cheng Long and Li Lienjie, the other actors were all fighting for their heads.

One can imagine how many people will be envious of the role of the A-level production "Inception" with a cost of 1.6 million US dollars.

"Well, wait for the notification!" Liu Yifei nodded lightly.

"I'll call Director Li to have dinner with me after the filming." Zhou Xun waved and rushed back to continue acting.

Li Mu watched the latest film and checked that it was OK, and then he was ready to watch the crew's scenes.

Most of the staff have been completed, leaving only the leading actors and some temporary extras.

Ning Hao's "No Man's Land" is also ready to be completed, and it is estimated that it will only take two weeks.

"Transformers" held a huge premiere in the United States, followed by an opening of 7000 million US dollars. Not only the North American media were shocked, but also the domestic media were exclaimed.

Because a week later, the domestic premiere will also be held.

This toy with childhood sentiments has now become a real-life movie. Who doesn’t buy a ticket to watch it?

And unlike "Pirates of the Caribbean 3", this movie has a mass base in China, and fans have been looking forward to the arrival of this movie for a long time.

There were loud voices and enthusiasm in the forum.

"This is a bit exaggerated, Director Li. It wouldn't be this exaggerated in China." Zhou Xun and others were shocked when they heard the news.

"You'll know in a few days." Li Mu smiled and did not answer.

But after hearing Li Mu's words, everyone probably guessed the answer and couldn't help but feel embarrassed.

Maybe it’s really such an exaggeration!

Li Mu and Liu Yifei only stayed with the crew for a few days before leaving in a hurry. After all, as a well-known director, Li Mu still had to attend the Xiangjiang return party to save face.

The location is in the CPPCC Auditorium.

Those who could participate were all big names from both places. Li Mu sat directly next to Tian Zhuangzhuang, Zhang Yimou, Chen Kaige and others.

Looking at this energetic Lao Mouzi, Li Mu also admired him a little.

"Brother, how are you preparing for the Olympics?" Before the party started, Li Mu also started chatting with Zhang Yimou.

As soon as he said this, Li Mu clearly felt that Tian Zhuangzhuang and Brother Chen Kai also pricked up their ears.

Apparently interested too.

Being able to direct this opening ceremony is something that many directors only dream of. It brings glory to the country.

Brother Chen Kai was still full of passion and recited a poem.

I almost made the superiors angry.

"It's not easy. It can be said to be carried out in an orderly manner." Zhang Yimou also smiled bitterly. This life is not easy. Coordination up and down can kill people.

Fortunately, this is a dead mission, and you have to get it out no matter what.

"I believe in your level," Li Mu said with a smile.Zhang Yimou suddenly remembered, "At the end of August, should I send you an invitation letter and come over, or should I give you two invitation letters?"

"Just one." Li Mu estimates that Liu Yifei will join the crew at the end of August.

Zhang Yimou nodded slightly, and the two of them continued chatting about other things.

At the party that night, celebrities gathered around Li Mu in circles, all trying to become familiar with each other.

Anyway, after several laps, Li Mu couldn't remember a few. There were so many people coming that it felt like a movie scene, all passing by in a flash.

Transformers has already caused a sensation on the first day it was released in China.

The midnight premiere at Wanda International Cinema in the Imperial City was originally scheduled to show only two shows, but it was still overcrowded, so two additional screenings were added at last.

Other theater chains are in roughly the same situation.

Domestic movies have been difficult. In the past two months, Li Mu looked at the movies on schedule and shook his head slightly.

You must know that "Transformers" was followed by "Harry Potter", and the domestic summer movies were directly bombarded.

Li Mu did not watch "Transformers". Instead, he found a theater and watched the documentary "Nanjing" shot by foreigners.

The film cost US$200 million and took two years to create, and Li Mu was a little stunned while watching it.

He almost booked the theater, and there were only two or three people in front and behind him.

After reading it, Li Mu became more and more emotional and thought back to Lu Xun's "Nanjing!"Nanjing! ", Li Mu couldn't help but want to go over and destroy him.

What the hell did he film?
After relaxing his mood, Li Mu left the scene.

The first-day box office of "Transformers" has been released, 2241 million!The first-day box office set a record high for imported blockbusters.

What's even more noteworthy is that the first day of the release of "Transformers" is neither on a weekend.

This news even silenced China Film and Korean Film and Television Reviews.

The media are now silent about what will happen to "The Fuse".

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that "Transformers" is ready to crush even "Ip Man".

The theaters are all laughing. After all, they make money regardless of whether they are domestically produced or imported.

But the film company was in a state of turmoil again.

Li Mu was a little silent after learning about it, but it is normal for "Transformers", an IP movie with natural fans and industrial Hollywood production, to be unable to compete domestically.

At least it's been a little difficult these years.

In the past few days, Liu Yifei has been buried in the script almost all day, and Nolan has already given notice that filming will begin next week.

Domestic news has spread all over the country. After all, it is a large-scale A-level production. Some people even approached Li Mu, hoping to introduce him.

In the end, no one except Liu Yifei could join the group.

Domestic female celebrities are not only envious but also envious. They have not seen that even Gong Li is walking on thin ice in Hollywood. It is not easy to find a role.

Li Mu and Liu Yifei rushed to Morocco. This movie was going to be transferred to six countries, and this was just one of them. Li Mu's face twitched twice after hearing this.

"Li! Crystal!" Nolan saw Li Mu and gave him a hug first.

"Mr. Nolan." Liu Yifei responded with a chuckle.

Leonardo and Marion Cotillard also came forward to welcome and greet Li Mu.

The other actors also looked over one after another. After all, Li Mu's fame in Hollywood is not something that can be built on.

Liu Yifei naturally came into view, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that the relationship between the two was unusual.

The actors are not fools. They know very clearly who they can offend and who they can't.

Li Mu came here just for this purpose, just to catch up with Nolan.

Take a look at how this live-action monster was filmed.

Nolan always wears a four-piece suit on the set, a black coat, a black suit jacket, a suit vest and a light-colored shirt.

Then carry a thermos of Earl Gray tea with you.

Anyway, Li Mu has seen him many times and it has never changed.

After staying for a few days, Liu Yifei basically adapted to the filming of the crew. The role was not difficult, so Li Mu returned to China.

At this time, "Transformers" had already grossed over [-] million in box office in just five days, becoming the fastest imported blockbuster in the history of Chinese films to have a box office of over [-] million.

"King Kong" took 14 days, and "Spider-Man 3" took 12 days.

The media cried wolf.

"The King of Kung Fu" is probably about to be finished. Stills have been shown frequently, including Li Binbin with white hair and cool looks, Jing Tian with a dashing ponytail, and Cheng Long in tattered clothes and disheveled hair.
During this period, Lu Zheng also started working for Jingtian again. He continued to look for resources and even made several calls to Li Mu.

It seems that I don't plan to stay in school for a year or two.

Li Mu couldn't control that much. He had already given the suggestion anyway, so it was other people's business to do what he did.

Mengying has made two movies during this period, and "No Man's Land" was completed first. Ning Hao came back after a long journey and got into post-production within a few days.

According to Ning Hao, he can't wait to see his new works.

Li Mu smiled slightly awkwardly. He probably wouldn't be so impatient when it comes time to submit for trial.

When he mentioned Ning Hao's "No Man's Land", Li Mu thought of Yu Feihong's special call a few days ago. Her "Love Has Afterlife" was started, and he invited Li Mu to check it out and give some advice when he was free.

By the way, I also thanked Li Mu for making Duan Yihong the Best Actor at Cannes. This movie started with a lot of popularity.

The media rushed to interview him. After all, this is Duan Yihong's first movie after winning the Best Actor Award at Cannes. It has a very high gimmick.

I casually found an excuse to excuse Yu Feihong, and was just about to say that I could finally have some free time.

Liu Weijuan walked in and said that the company was going to be idle and that "Painted Skin" would be completed within this period of time.

Ask Li Mu if he has any follow-up plans.

The theater chain has received the money, but it still has to wait a few months. Now Golden Harvest is just on the shelf and has not been actually sold yet.

At this time, there is a huge gap in talents for domestic theaters, and it is not easy to recruit for a while. Fortunately, the personnel of the theaters can first use what Jiahe already has. Li Mu and Wu Kebo specially discussed this.

However, the person in charge of the theater chain has to ask a headhunter to help find one. Liu Weijuan certainly cannot take care of so many things by herself.

Li Mu thought about it for a moment. Now he occasionally has to watch the later stages of "2012". Even though "Painted Skin" is not a producer, he has to keep an eye on it.

Li Mu was not particularly at ease with the filming of "District [-]", a new director.

The movie "District [-]" needs to be deep and deep, and it is an award-winning film. It can be regarded as the first award-winning film independently produced by Mengying. As a producer, Li Mu is also very concerned about it.

The details and picture processing of the previous movie were somewhat rough, which needs to be improved, at least to make this movie more outstanding than the previous movie.

In the remaining fragmented time period, blockbusters cannot be released, and there should not be too many characters in the movie, but as few as possible.

A very brain-burning movie suddenly flashed in my mind. There were few characters, but it was extremely classic.

It can be regarded as one of the pinnacles of the suspense genre.

There are surprisingly many twists and turns throughout the film, but each twist makes people suddenly realize something.

Li Mu made up his mind. He had not seen a movie with this kind of plot since "Manslaughter".

This time, I can just do something interesting.
