Chapter 227

The audition for "33 Days After Love" also followed.

"Yifei, do you have any ideas about your heroine?" Xue Xiaolu closed the script in her hand and asked.

"Director Xue, I won't interfere in the casting!"

Liu Yifei shook her head. This has always been Mengying's style. Producers rarely interfere in the director's casting, and even Li Mu only gives some advice occasionally.

"It's not an intervention, just a suggestion. Ify, you have been both an actor and a producer, so you have more experience than me in this regard."

Xue Xiaolu is just a new director, and she really wants to listen to Liu Yifei's advice.

The two of them will have to work together later, so they can get acquainted with each other in advance.

Liu Yifei seemed to understand and thought for a while: "Director Xue, starting from the setting of the movie, the heroine needs to be portrayed as a bold, arrogant, proud, innocent and lovely image of a contemporary urban girl with a kind heart who dares to love and hate. "

Xue Xiaolu listened and nodded from time to time. Liu Yifei had the same idea as her.

"Quite talented, I should mention it to Director Li!" Xue Xiaolu thought for a while, and it seemed that Li Mu didn't notice this either.

"Director Xue, I will not participate in the subsequent casting!"

Xue Xiaolu was not surprised. It was obvious from the chat just now, "Okay, once I'm sure, I'll send it to Director Li."

The final list of actors still needs to be confirmed by Li Mu, although Li Mu generally does not change it.

Whoever successfully grabs this movie with a heroine may be able to enjoy it for the rest of his life.

Many people are looking for relationships like crazy.

"Pity!"

Cai Yinong has received the message from Mengying, and the two parties have begun negotiations. Cai Yinong could not give up this opportunity, and "33 Days of Love" could only give up with tears.

"I wonder who will get it?" Liu Shisi muttered secretly.

The male lead actors who have been confirmed to audition include Huang Xiaoming, Deng Chao, Lei Jiayin, Su Youpeng, Zhu Yawen and Luo Jin.
The competition for the heroine selection is unprecedented.

Yang Mi felt a little uneasy when she looked at the actresses who were no worse than her.

"Why is she here?" Yang Mi watched Shu Chang coming, and she became worried.

Who doesn't know that Shu Chang and Liu Yifei are best friends, and Liu Yifei is also a producer.

Gao Yuanyuan, Tong Liya, Wang Luodan, Bai Baihe, Jiang Xin, Bai Bing and others looked unhappy when they saw Shu Chang.

"If I had known, I wouldn't have come! I haven't even gone through the back door yet." Shu Chang felt that everyone in the group seemed to be full of hostility towards her.

She also learned that Liu Yifei had no intention of intervening in the casting, so she came here specifically to audition. But it seemed that whether she believed it or not was not up to her, but to the competitors.

Yang Mi went in for the interview first, took a look at the person sitting in front of her, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

"Fortunately Liu Yifei is not here!" Yang Mi secretly rejoiced in her heart.

Bao Jingjing was brought here by Xue Xiaolu to see the world together. After all, she was a student of her literature department.

"Teacher, why isn't Senior Sister Liu Yifei here?" The audition has begun, but Bao Jingjing hasn't seen Liu Yifei yet.

"Yifei won't participate in the audition. Watch carefully. It will be good for you as a screenwriter in the future."

Xue Xiaolu was still talking to Bao Jingjing.

The casting director next to him had already handed the audition script to Yang Mi.

A very bloody plot. The heroine witnessed her best friend having sex with her boyfriend who has been in love for many years. At this time, the boyfriend suddenly called.
The casting director personally acted with Yang Mi.

Li Mu didn't go to Mengying today and stayed at home.

When Liu Yifei came back, Li Mu was still a little confused: "Is the casting over?"

"No, Director Xue is choosing, so I won't get involved."

Li Mu nodded. It didn't matter whether he participated or not.

"By the way, Shu Chang went to audition."

Liu Yifei was a little surprised: "She didn't tell me!"

"It's just because she doesn't want to tell you."

"Then if Shu Chang is elected, won't everyone think that I am operating in secret?"

Li Mu mocked: "So what if you operate behind the scenes? You can't even bring the people around you to your side. Doesn't that make you look useless?"

"You are useless, I will fight with you"

Liu Yifei and Li Mu instantly started to fight again. The two of them were chasing each other and having a lot of fun on the sofa.

After Yang Mi finished her performance, she bowed and walked out.

"Jingjing, what do you think?" Xue Xiaolu specially studied Bao Jingjing.

"She is not suitable. She is a bit different from Huang Xiaoxian in my book."

Xue Xiaolu nodded. The screenwriter should also have his own views on the compatibility of the characters.

"Call the next one!"

"."

After Yang Mi walked out of the door, she was dejected. It was already rumored in the circle that the heroine of "Xiu Chun Dao" had been given to Liu Shisi.

Her current fan base is beginning to lose ground in the face of Liu Shisi's fans.

Now "33 Days Out" is no longer available. For the role of Huang Xiaoxian, she felt that she did not perform it well, which made her look a little ugly.

The next day, Li Mu had received Xue Xiaolu's role list, and also sent a message about Liu Yifei.

After Li Mu read it, he thought a little and saw Xiao Nizi who was still playing Weibo happily.

Liu Yifei seemed to sense something and turned to stare at Li Mu: "What's wrong?"

"It's okay. Director Xue has chosen a good person. Come on, let's watch together." Li Mu called Liu Yifei over.

"Let me see who Director Xue has chosen."

Xue Xiaolu did not directly choose one person for a certain role. Instead, he chose two people for the male lead and three people for the female lead.

Li Mu smiled, he was indeed someone who had been in the industry for a long time.

After looking at the list, I found that the people chosen to play these two roles were quite suitable, but just to be on the safe side, they had to be crossed out.

Male protagonists: Wen Zhang, Luo Jin.

Female protagonists: Wang Luodan, Bai Baihe, Shu Chang.

Li Mu crossed out Wen Zhang's name directly in front of Liu Yifei.

Liu Yifei blinked and looked at him.

"Housewife, you do it." Li Mu handed the pen to Liu Yifei.

Liu Yifei hesitated.

Seeing her hesitation, Li Mu directly picked up the pen and crossed out Wang Luodan and Bai Baihe, then handed it to Liu Yifei: "Take it to Director Xue tomorrow!"

Liu Yifei didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and said angrily: "Why don't you do it for me?"

"I'm here to help you make a decision!"

“This list may be a bit criticized within circles!”

Li Mu said disdainfully: "Who is looking for money from Mengying? Do you need to look at other people's faces? Even if someone says something, they don't dare to say it openly!"

"."

Now that the cast list has been announced, there must be some controversy within the industry.

"It's great to have a relationship!"

Especially when Shu Chang was elected as the heroine, a lot of actresses were unconvinced from the bottom of their hearts. Why didn't Liu Yifei compete for it and it wasn't our turn?
But no one dared to say it openly.Li Mu didn't bother to pay attention. No matter who he chose, no one else would be convinced. This kind of opportunity for a leading heroine was too rare.

However, the matter of Mengying's casting has finally been settled.

The continuation of the Berlin Film Festival has become a hot new topic in the industry. This Berlin Film Festival has many Chinese elements. The two Chinese participating films have very different styles, one is a commercial film and the other is an art film.

However, Zhang Yimou himself knows very well that "Three Guns" is not an award-winning film at all. He went to Berlin just to party with old friends.

Berlin always coincides with the Spring Festival every year. During this year's Spring Festival, Li Mu has already called Li Peng and Li's mother to watch the Spring Festival Gala together.

"Zhao Benshan's sketch this year is not good!" Li's mother commented at the scene.

"There are too many advertisements!" Liu Xiaoli nodded aside, quite agreeing with this point of view.

Li Muze and Liu Yifei occasionally whispered closely.

However, the stage design and dance programs of this year's Spring Festival Gala were so outstanding that people were a bit unexpected.

Although the Spring Festival Gala has been moving forward on the road of stage refinement in recent years, this year's stage design is so amazing.

The stage background and LEDs on both sides can play animations, and even the floor and large screens can play animations. The stage effect is displayed in an all-round way.

And due to the angle, it can produce a three-dimensional effect.

Audiences can experience the 3D stage effect without wearing glasses.

This feeling of familiarity is as if the "scroll" of the Olympic Games opening ceremony has been moved into the Spring Festival Gala.

"It's worth it. You can't see this effect on TV." Mother Li was also amazed by this dance.

In the dance "Moonlight over the Lotus Pond", the dancers wore fluorescent clothes and sang and danced. The mesmerizing scenery of the lotus pond was displayed on the big screen behind them. The golden lotus bloomed in the deep blue sea water, and the effect was quite outstanding.

The cameras of the Spring Festival Gala occasionally glanced at the table of Li Mu and Liu Yifei, and exposure was inevitable.

On the day of the Spring Festival Gala, people were already talking about it on Weibo.

"Are good things coming for Li Mu and Liu Yifei?"

"Are the two families going to get married when they meet?"

"It's over, my goddess is getting married, woo."

After returning home, Liu Yifei was holding a mobile phone and still scrolling through Weibo, watching happily.

"When you two go to France, take Li Mu to meet him when you have time." Liu Xiaoli looked at Liu Yifei lying casually on the sofa and said softly.

"Ah!" Liu Yifei jumped up from the sofa and nodded.

"Go to bed early!" Liu Xiaoli ignored this night owl and turned directly back to the bedroom.

Liu Yifei looked at the comments made by netizens on her mobile phone about her and Li Mu, and smiled sweetly, as if she was still thinking about something.

During the seven-day Spring Festival holiday, the national box office reached 2.5 million, of which "Avatar" accounted for half of the market share. Chinese films such as "The Guardian", "Little Soldier", "Love in the City" and "Pleasant Goat 2" also performed well.

Then another super heavyweight Hollywood blockbuster, "Sherlock Holmes" finally locked its schedule after the traditional Spring Festival.

At Mengying, three movies have been launched one after another. The first to be launched is Xue Xiaolu's "33 Days of Love", followed by Li Mu's "The Martian", and finally Lu Yang's costume martial arts movie.

Li Mu held a press conference in the Imperial Capital with actors from China and the United States, and then went directly to the space base built in Gansu.

"The filming has finally started. Why do you feel that Jiang Wen's temperament is different?"

"I heard that he was thrown into training by Li Mu!"

"Hahaha, Jiang Wen is also here today, but luckily it's Li Mu!"

"That's right. If it were a director like Lu Xun, the people who might be thrown into training would have to be replaced!"

"Brother, you're going to make me laugh!"

"."

Lu Xun also peeked at the screen from time to time, especially the information about the two enemies, Li Mu and Jiang Wen, he was always paying attention to.

But when he saw the ridicule from netizens, he was furious.

"There is no truth to this!"

Lu Xun was cursing.

This year's Berlin Film Festival also came to an end after the year. "Honey" directed by Turkish director Saimi unexpectedly won the Golden Bear Award for Best Film. Chinese director Wang Quanan directed "Honey", which showed the reunion of two families from the Mainland and Taiwan after separation. The film "Reunion" won the Best Screenplay Award.

"Three Guns" directed by Zhang Yimou failed to achieve anything, just as he predicted.

"Ip Man 2", a collaboration between Mengying and Emperor, is scheduled for April, and the promotion has already begun. The new story of "Ip Man 2" also involves the young Bruce Lee, which is not a big deal for the audience. Appeal.

"Boss, "The Witch" is scheduled to be released during the summer vacation. What do you think?"

"The Witch" basically has no special plot, has a small amount of violent scenes, and almost no crude violent scenes, and does not exceed the moderate range. It is defined as PG-13, and parents are strongly urged to guide teenagers under the age of 13 to watch.

"Okay, let's put it at the end of July."

Li Mu took a look at the current schedule of July and August in the United States, and found that "Despicable Me" was okay, and the other movies did not pose much of a threat.

"Crystal is so cool this time. She will definitely become popular in North America." David had watched the finished film, and it was obvious that the fighting scenes were extremely comfortable.

"Haha, she's not here with me, she can't hear what you're saying!"

"That's a pity."

"Okay, I'll explain it to you."

Li Mu hung up the phone with David and returned to the set.

Guo Fan took the crew members to familiarize themselves with the environment of the base.

"You are so generous!" Jiang Wen looked at this huge space base and felt a little shocked.

Who would make a science fiction movie and just set up a base? Brother Chen Kai is not so generous.

"This is an investment. Next time you make a science fiction film, just pay some money and you can make it!" Li Mu said with a smile. He likes these big directors to also make science fiction films, so that his base can make another fortune. .

"Come on, I make science fiction movies, and I don't even know what I'll make!" Jiang Wen waved his hand. He was not the type to make this type of movie.

"This spaceship is so damn cool!" Although Jiang Wen doesn't make science fiction movies, he still likes the toy of a man's dream, which can't be bought with money outside.

Lu Zheng also came with Jingtian and was shocked when he saw this big scene.

Jingtian looked at Li Mu with an uplifting look.

"Tsk, your charm is quite attractive to little girls!" Jiang Wen stood aside with a smirk on his face. He knew that the look was definitely not looking at him, but was undoubtedly looking at Li Mu.

But after thinking about it, I think it's normal.

"Stop talking nonsense!" Li Mu interrupted Jiang Wen and gave instructions: "That's almost it. Let's put on the space suit!"

The crew produced a total of 15 spacesuits for the six astronauts in the film.

Li Xuejian hasn't joined the cast yet, and his role hasn't come yet.

Operator: Jingtian, Commander: Jessica Chastain.
In this movie, there is no villain, and there is no one who will prevent Jiang Wen from surviving and returning to Earth, except for the natural environment of Mars.

The film built about 20 scenes, which is not many compared to other films, but these scenes are very exquisite in craftsmanship.

"First scene, first shot, Action!" Li Mu directed.

At the beginning, Li Mu changed the stereotype of scientists in the past. The scientists carried out arduous scientific research in the spirit of entertainment, first taking real photos in the spacecraft.

This is also a simple session for everyone to get a feel for.

Guo Fan was on the side. As the assistant director, he was much busier than when he was working on the crew before, but he still enjoyed it.

"This is a true science fiction blockbuster."

Guo Fan's eyes lit up when he saw the scene when the crew was filming.
