China Entertainment started from Nortel 2002

Chapter 169 Transition, King of Kung Fu

This news caused heated discussions on the Internet
Although there have been rumors on the Internet that Li Mu will play the male lead in the movie, it is still not as shocking as Mengying's own announcement.

"Li Mu and Liu Yifei star in this movie. Thinking about it makes me excited!"

"These two are not together, and I swallowed all the keys to my house."

"Nine times out of ten, they are together. They have been together for many years, but they have not been announced."

"Doesn't anyone care about Li Mu starring as the male lead?"

"It's not surprising for the basic actors in the directing world. Zhang Yi and Jiang Wen have also acted, but things between him and Liu Yifei are easier to do."

The media also wants clicks and traffic. They will post whatever netizens like.

"The story that Li Mu and Liu Yifei have to tell!"

"Li Mu stars again, only for her!"

"The cast information of "Your Name" has been revealed. Are Li Mu and Liu Yifei a couple?"

It has to be said that these headlines are very gimmick, and the number of clicks is very high. Although Li Mu said nothing, he just speculated, but couldn't explain the reason.

On the contrary, it is this cast that has people in the industry talking about it.

After all, the affairs of Liu Yifei and Li Mu are no longer news in the industry. This almost all-Nortel lineup makes the actors in the industry feel unfair.

Except for Shu Chang, who is from Bei Er, and Wu Yanshu, who is from the Repertory Theater Company, the rest of the important supporting roles are all from Beitel. It made several other art schools shed tears after watching it, especially the drama.

The acting teachers at the theater were all lamenting, why is this Li Mu so different from his fellow directors? They thought the first few movies were a bit better, but unexpectedly they changed their minds again.

In recent days, Liu Yifei would laugh a few times while holding the newspaper.

There is no other reason, because it contains reports that she and Li Mu are suspected of being in love.

As a person involved, she loved it so much that she finally saw the light of day again.

Moreover, the fans were not very resistant and even encouraged her to take down Li Mu.

This made her happy.

"Sissi, what's wrong with you? You've been giggling for a long time." Shu sang "Magic Phone" which has been aired and returned to the set two days ago.

In the past two days, Shu Chang found that whenever he had a break, this fool would flip through the recently delivered newspaper from time to time, not reading other sections, only reading the gossip section and the news section.

Shu Chang felt that all his Yuyu syndrome had been cured by Liu Yifei.

The ratings of "Magic Phone" are indeed not a problem, and it is broadcast during prime time on CCTV-8. However, these negative reviews don't care about the ratings, they came in droves.

Even the media was full of bad reviews, and both the appearance and the plot were questioned.

"Hey, Chang Chang, don't be so unhappy. Your drama is very good and I really like watching it." Liu Yifei put down the newspaper and looked at Shu Chang's melancholy expression and comforted her.

"I've been too tired from filming recently and haven't gone online. Let me see what netizens say."

Liu Yifei turned on her computer and quickly searched for places such as the "Magic Phone" post bar. Shu Chang leaned on Liu Yifei's shoulder, and the two of them read the comments from netizens.

"What role does the beautiful Shu singing girl in leather boots, tight pants and exposed navel play in the play?"

"Silly girl cell phone."

"Why does Zhu Bajie wear a leather jacket and ride a Harley?"

"Chasing girls while paying homage to Terminator."

“What does the Superman with the most Chinese characteristics look like?”

"Little Lee is as handsome as Fei Dao, has Ultraman's figure, and has as many abdominal muscles as he wants on his clothes."

"Pfft." Liu Yifei suddenly burst into laughter. She laughed for a while and then covered her mouth. She seemed to have remembered something. When she turned around, she saw Shu Chang's resentful eyes staring at him.

"That singing, I'm sorry, I definitely didn't mean it. I'm a professional actor and I don't usually laugh randomly."

Liu Yifei instantly stopped her smile and said seriously.

After saying that, he quickly turned around and went back, sliding the mouse and ignoring Shu Chang's penetrating eyes.

Liu Yifei continued to browse, expecting a good comment to cheer up Shu Chang's miserable soul.

"Did the stylist of "Magic Phone" grow up reading American comics?"

"Then who can tell me whether the man in black who fell from the sky is Spider-Man or Batman?"

"Why do so many of the looks look familiar?"

"I guess I didn't use up the costumes from "Lotus Lantern" last time, so I'll wear them again this time."

“What is the function of Sha Niu’s mobile phone?
"I love you for the power-on password. It has rich expression functions, and the various expressions of joy, anger, sorrow, sadness and bad are comparable to those of the Yangtze River No. 2060. It has a first-class memory and good flying skills. It can travel through time and space, identify good and evil, and can become invisible at critical moments. It is said that it is A replica of Doraemon. (It’s a pity that this [-] mobile phone cannot prevent theft. Has mobile phone technology regressed?)”

"Oh, no, I'm going to die laughing." Liu Yifei finally failed to maintain her identity as a professional actress and kept laughing.

Shu Chang burst into tears upon seeing this, and even Liu Yifei laughed like this, so this drama is so ridiculous.

There was no one in sight.

"No, singing, maybe it's just that my laughter point is low. I guarantee that A Mu and the others will not laugh after watching it. This plot is so normal. This line focuses on one word: unique." Liu Yifei hurriedly comforted her bestie. .

Liu Yifei was a little pity that there were still many netizens' comments that she hadn't read yet, but she didn't dare to skate anymore for fear of irritating Shu Chang, so she could only watch secretly when she was alone.

"It's strange, I think it's pretty good-looking." Liu Yifei also muttered in her heart, "Why are there so many people saying it's ridiculous?"

The next day, when Liu Yifei told Li Mu and others these comments, Li Mu didn't show much expression. The netizens were indeed very talented, but Zhu Yawen made a few people laugh so hard that they fell off their feet.

"Hey, don't tell me, Shu Chang, why don't you wear leather boots, tight pants and expose your navel? We haven't seen it yet." Zhu Yawen laughed and mocked.

"Poor baby." Li Mu looked at Zhu Yawen. The consequences of talking nonsense would be to be severely tortured.

"Ah" Zhu Yawen cried out in pain.

Li Mu looked at today's filming schedule. If everything goes well, today will probably be the last day of filming here. After filming, he will have to move to the Magic City.

Also on this day, Jingtian's "Anaconda" was released, and there was a report in the newspaper this morning. It seems that the popularity of "The King of Kung Fu" is still good.

In the evening, Li Mu shouted: "Ka, passed! We will transfer to the Magic City tomorrow."

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of cheers in the studio.

"I'm leaving, but I'm still a little reluctant to leave." Liu Yifei also felt a little emotional when she heard this.

These days, this scenery is so healing, and I feel a bit enjoying filming here.

Director Yang from the scenic area has been coming over from time to time these days, asking if there is anything he needs help with, and he is very enthusiastic.

Today I learned that Li Mu and others were going to the Magic City and wanted to treat them to a meal. Li Mu couldn't refuse, so he called the crew and went together.

"Director Yang, you have caused trouble during this period. The ecology of the scenic spot has not been damaged at all, so you can rest assured." "Hey, what are you talking about? Director Li, can I still worry about you filming? As for Ma not being troublesome, as long as I As long as Mr. Yang is still here, the door of the scenic spot will always be open to Director Li." Director Yang patted his chest and spoke with some pride.

Li Mu is very particular about filming. The scenic spot staff all praised him and the people below also reported on it.

He can't wait for a few more directors like this to come and promote this place, which would also be a great political achievement.

If the filming of Oriental Girl Country is Liu Yifei's home field, then the Magic City is Li Mu's home field. Here, his role is more important, and he has to perform the feeling of being a woman wearing a man's clothes.

Recently, Li Mu has also been consciously observing Liu Yifei's movements and demeanor in life.

You can't lose face in the magic city.

"Senior sister, here we come!" Li Mu was still in Shanghai preparing for the next day's shooting, and Yan Danchen had quickly joined the set.

She plays the role of the male protagonist's working senior, a beautifully dressed female college student, and the object of admiration for men including the male protagonist.

"I have to thank Director Li for this opportunity!" Yan Danchen knew very well that Li Mu was nostalgic, and from time to time some characters would think of alumni they had worked with before.

"Didn't I send you a text message to thank you? You don't have to be so polite." Li Mu said with a smile.

The next day, in an apartment in Shanghai, the crew rented a house for filming.

All kinds of filming equipment are already in place, and everyone is ready to watch Li Mu's performance intently.

The first paragraph is when Sanye possesses the male protagonist and begins his life in the magical city.

In the male protagonist's bedroom, the alarm clock on his mobile phone rang in the morning. Li Mu was sleeping on his stomach on the edge of the bed. When he heard the sound, he used his hand to search for his mobile phone. He fell out of the bed with his face upward. The mattress covered his entire head, and then he fell. Go down.

Li Mu sat up and shouted: "It hurts. It hurts!"

"Where is this?"

I touched my Adam's apple and my buttocks, and felt something else on my inner thigh, so I couldn't help but reach out.
When this scene is shown, there will be a quick cut of the camera.

"Ka!" Li Mu shouted to himself.

When the voice sounded, Liu Yifei and the others couldn't help but smile. Li Mu like this was indeed very interesting.

Li Mu felt a little awkward at this time, and he also experienced the awkward feeling Liu Yifei had when she first performed.

"This scene is really difficult to perform." Li Mu thought to himself that although he usually observed a lot of details, when it came to actually acting, there was still a gap.

As a perfectionist, Li Mu did not relax his demands on himself.

This section took nearly 10 shots before I passed the test.

"Director Li has some strict requirements on himself."

"That's why Director Li's movies are so popular. Stop talking and get ready for the next one."

The next scene is much simpler, with a combination of shots, a magical city, tall buildings, and endless traffic.

The male protagonist is walking among the crowd (looking up, pinching his face to confirm if it was a dream)
The film uses a dual-line narrative throughout the film. The two branches of the male and female protagonists unfold in parallel. Combined with the plot of time and space travel, an emotional bond is created.

Among the two narrative lines, Liu Yifei’s perspective dominates the rhythm of the first half of the film.

The more important second half is contrasted by the reversal of Li Mu's main perspective.

Across time and space, they kept meeting and missing each other, and finally met again in the vast sea of ​​people because of longing and obsession.

The story is delicate, beautiful and moving.

While Li Mu was still filming, on April 4, the world premiere of "The King of Kung Fu" was held at Chaoyang Park in the imperial capital.

The film is the second "global film" produced and distributed by a Chinese-language company in conjunction with Hollywood forces. The first one was Li Mu's "2012", which is currently in the late stages of production.

"The King of Kung Fu" has unprecedentedly brought about the highly anticipated big screen showdown between 53-year-old Cheng Long and 44-year-old Li Lienjie.

Wang Zhongjun took this movie very seriously, as it was related to Huayi's subsequent capital plan.

The appearance of Cheng Long, Li Lianjie, Jing Tian and Li Binbin aroused cheers from many people

In order not to delay the filming of the crew, Li Mu directly postponed the premiere. At this time, the crew was still preparing for the next filming.

"Director Li, I think the main action scene of "The King of Kung Fu" is already available online."

"Let me see!"

It had just premiered, and it would not be released globally for another two days. Li Mu was a little unbelievable that the piracy was so fast.

Almost everyone went to watch.

The leaked scenes were very clear, including the clips of Cheng Long fighting Li Lianjie and Li Binbin fighting Jingtian. Since the clips were in English, Li Mu knew at a glance that they were leaked from foreign sources.

"The fight between Li Lienjie and Cheng Long seems a bit exciting from this perspective." Some people were still discussing.

The PK scene between the two major Hollywood kung fu stars in China is still talked about.

"The part between the white-haired witch and the golden swallow was good, but it felt weird. Why did the white-haired witch come out?"

When Li Mu heard their discussion, he secretly smiled inwardly. The Chinese mythological stories directed by foreigners were full of ghosts, and there were only a few fighting scenes, which were really pitiful.

Fortunately, only a few clips of the footage were leaked, otherwise "The King of Kung Fu" would have suffered a loss. Huayi also urgently contacted the United States to investigate, hoping to prevent the spread.

"Is this the role you wanted me to play before? It doesn't feel right."

"It's not good." Li Mu responded softly.

The popularity of "The King of Kung Fu" has even overtaken the Hong Kong Film Festival. This time, Chen Kexin's "Famous Film" won 8 awards. He lost investment but won fame awards and made himself rich in the process.

On the 18th, The King of Kung Fu was released in North America, opening in 3151 theaters, with a box office of US$775 million on the first day, and receiving rave reviews in North America.

It took in 2100 million US dollars in the first three days. Hua Yile is blooming, and people here in China are eager to see this Kung Fu blockbuster loved by American audiences and see the famous scenes of the two Kung Fu superstars.

"Want to go and see it?" Li Mu looked at Liu Yifei buried in his arms and asked.

"Uh-huh!"

"Okay, I'll ask someone for some tickets, and we can all go and see it together."

"You're so kind!" Liu Yifei rushed forward and kissed her.

"go to bed early!"

Li Mu touched Liu Yifei's little head and returned to his room.

The next day, the filming progress was normal, and work ended early in the afternoon. Li Mu called Shu Chang, Zhu Yawen and the others, dressed up in disguise, and went to Xingmei Cinema to watch a movie.

The movie begins in Chinatown. An American teenager who is crazy about Hong Kong and Taiwan Kung Fu movies gets a Ruyi golden hoop in a Chinese antique store. With the power of the golden hoop, he returns to China thousands of years ago.

Originally, such a setting was not impossible, but the more Liu Yifei and others looked at it, the more strange it became.

Because the film strings together elements from different time and space such as the White-haired Witch, Sun Wukong, Tang Monk, and Golden Swallow.
