Chapter 308 That's Necessary
  Huaqi Film and Television.

"Mr. Liu, it's obvious that Xu Zheng is still working on the "囧" series. Should we sue them for infringement?"

The female secretary on the side looked at the news from Mengying Media and suggested.

"How to sue? It would be fine if it used 'people are in trouble', but this is it, how to sue?"

Liu Guangwei didn't expect that Xu Zheng could continue to work on a new script, and it was Mengying Media who did it.

If Xu Zheng was the only one, he would definitely take action, but with Mengying Media as his back, he would have to think twice.

The gap between Huaqi Film and Television and Mengying Media is not generally large.

The launch ceremony of "囧囧" was held in the Imperial Capital.

Li Mu and Liu Yifei went over to cheer them up, and Ning Hao also came.

"Brother Bo, when I see the three of you, I feel that there is a very comic atmosphere."

Liu Yifei laughed in a low voice. She didn't know why looking at Xu Zheng, Wang Baoqiang, and Huang Bo, she felt that the comedy atmosphere was rising.

"The relationship is great. It proves that our chemistry is strong."

Huang Bo smiled broadly.

Wang Baoqiang was definitely more restrained than Huang Bo. After saying hello, he didn't say a few words.

"This should be our second time working together."

Li Mu said to Wang Baoqiang with a smile.

"I have to thank Mengying for letting me appear in "Soldier Assault"."

Wang Baoqiang was honest and polite.

"Two-way achievements. Without you, Xu Sanduo might not be as wonderful as he is."

"Hey, it will be great if we all cooperate more in the future."

Huang Bo embraced Wang Baoqiang and said with a smile.

"There will be a chance. I'm very optimistic about this movie. Give it a good performance."

Li Mu's words immediately made Huang Bo and Wang Baoqiang's eyes light up. After all, Li Mu's words carried a lot of weight, and he was optimistic that this movie might be a hit.

"Don't worry, we are all professionals. We only make the audience laugh, and we guarantee that we can hold back laughter on the set."

"Hahaha"

Everyone chatted briefly for a while, and then Xu Zheng took the leading actors to be interviewed.

"I wonder what the photo will look like?"

Ning Hao stood aside, watching several leading actors being interviewed, and said calmly.

"According to the script, it shouldn't be any different. Maybe it will do better at the box office than your "Golden Heist"."

Ning Hao didn't quite believe it: "Real or false?"

"It's not like you've never made a comedy before. Don't you know that this is a very explosive genre?"

Li Mu said slowly: "You can work on a comedy script with that sister later, and you may be a member of the $[-] million club."

"How can that thing be so simple? Let's watch it after "The Golden Heist" is released."

Although Ning Hao was very moved, the script was about seeking inspiration.

"Mengying Media's first film in the Year of the Dragon, "Thailand", held a launch ceremony in Beijing, and many directors such as Li Mu, Liu Yifei, and Ning Hao attended the event."

“梦影传媒旗下两部电影定档，《黄金大劫案》定档4月23日，《画皮2》定档6月28日.”

However, compared to the launch ceremony of "Lost in Thailand", the release dates of "Golden Heist" and "Painted Skin 2" are more interesting.

"I've watched two more movies, Ning Hao's movie and the sequel to "Painted Skin", which are not very far apart. Looking forward to it!"

"Looking forward"

"Why do I always feel that the schedule of "Painted Skin 2" seems a little wrong!"

"Brother, you are right, Lu Xun's "The King's Feast" is scheduled for July 7."

Whether inside or outside the industry, everyone probably knows that "Painted Skin 2" is set to block "The King's Feast".

People in the industry are having fun.

It depends on whether Lu Xun wants to adjust the schedule. The strength of "Painted Skin 2" is not clear, but everyone can still see the first "Painted Skin" as a leader in fantasy movies.

"This is really unreasonable. This Li Mu really can't get along with me."

Lu Xun was angry and unhappy. Doesn't changing the schedule now mean that he is timid?

But without adjusting the schedule, even though "Painted Skin 2" was given up for a few days, he was not sure whether "The King's Feast" could win the box office.

Fortunately, Li Mu didn't shoot it himself, otherwise he would have to change the schedule no matter what.

"Stand still for now, and we'll see what happens with Xingmei later."

Lu Xun made up his mind to ignore it for now, and naturally some people would forget about it.

Recently, Mengying Media also released a trailer for “The Golden Heist” with the English title “Guns N’ Roses”. Under the deliberate promotion of Mengying Media, the English title was spoofed into different Chinese titles by netizens.

"Guns N' Roses", "Fuck! Roses!", "Fuck or Rub to Death" and other English-translated Chinese titles also appeared one after another, winning a lot of popularity for "The Golden Heist".

“So you can still promote it like this!!!”

Many companies have learned this trick. Sure enough, you can always learn something new by looking at Mengying Media’s promotional routines.

Ning Hao also posted a Weibo that seemed to be a response to the English film title “Guns N’ Roses”:
  "There are fewer people talking about 'Gun N' Roses' now. In those years, it represented ideals, violence, a flag, endless cigarettes, endless cigarettes, and endless pretense.

Salute to ‘Guns N’ Roses’! ! ! "

“Director Ning, it’s easy to understand, salute to ‘Guns N’ Roses’!!!”

"Director Ning also made a cameo. I watched the movie to see if your performance was brilliant."

"Hurry up and release it!" Just before Li Mu left for Hollywood, he made a special trip to China Film Studio.

Entering its third week, the average daily box office of "Gravity" is still around 3000 million.

"Director Han, the matter of applying for a key extension for "Gravity""

"Don't worry, I've inquired about this matter, and I'm pretty sure the documents will come out soon. The higher-ups will definitely support this movie."

Li Mu nodded. With the current box office potential, if he applies for an extension of one and a half months, the box office can still jump.

"Is there any hope for Oscar this time?"

Han Sanping is more concerned about this matter, as the lottery draw day is not far away.

"It's hard to say, this time the opponent is quite strong."

Li Mu rarely looked serious.

Han Sanping also knew the situation of this session and nodded slightly.

"By the way, Mengying Media has no plans to launch an IPO yet?"

"Not yet, wait a minute. Speaking of which, how is China Film's listing situation now?"

When Han Sanping heard this, he smiled brightly:
  "A few days ago, the IDU Environmental Protection Bureau made an environmental announcement on China Film Co., Ltd. If progress goes well, China Film Co., Ltd. may be listed within half a year."

But then there was a pause. "If things don't go well, it's hard to tell. Hahaha, I'm about to retire. It will be worth it if I can see China Film Group go public while I'm in office."

Unlike the listings of private companies such as Huayi Brothers, Bona, and Enlight, China Film's journey to the listing is long and involves all aspects.

"There should be a chance."

If Li Mu remembers correctly, China Film should not have gone public until 2016. From this point of view, Han Sanping really did not wait until China Film went public. I have to say that this is also a pity.

Just when Li Mu took the crew and Jiang Wen on a plane to Hollywood to participate in the Oscars, something happened to Feng Xiaogang's "Review 1942".

What went wrong was not Feng Xiaogang's movie, but the actor he chose. Zhang Mo was in trouble.

Zhang Guoli took the lead in apologizing, and the circle was shocked for a while.

Zhang Guoli still has a great influence in the circle, and many people come forward.
  Li Mu and others also got off the plane and learned about the affairs in the country.

There were still people in the crew sighing with emotion, and Jiang Wen also muttered a few curse words. Li Mu didn't pay any attention to it.
  "Old Jiang, I advise you not to get involved in this matter."

Li Mu thought for a while and reminded him.

"I know this, the higher-ups probably have zero tolerance."

Because the six nominations this time involved several awards such as visual effects, sound effects, sound effects editing, and art direction, Li Mu naturally brought along the people involved in the crew.

David was already waiting at the airport early.

While driving, Li Mu also saw a huge poster of "The Hunger Games" in a commercial plaza.

Jennifer Lauren's profile picture looks great with a golden flame-like background.

"Is this movie the upcoming "The Hunger Games" from Crystal Pictures?"

Jiang Wen also followed Li Mu's gaze and took a look.

"This poster looks pretty good."

"Jiang, right? I think this poster is great, but the movie is even better."

David said proudly.

"Boss, I think this movie can be introduced to China, where your country has the second largest ticket sales in the world, and the bill sharing ratio is even higher now."

Li Mu thought for a while: "Okay."

The 84th Academy Awards will be held at the Kodak Theater in Los Angeles, USA, on February 2, Imperial time.

Li Mu, Jiang Wen and the crew took the organizing committee's limo to the ceremony venue.

"This is our first time attending the Oscars."

The crew is very excited. As the world's largest film event, the Oscars will at least have something to talk about when we go out drinking and bragging.

"Hahaha, follow Director Li closely, there will be no shortage of Oscars in the future."

Jiang Wen shouted excitedly.

"What you said to Lao Jiang is reasonable!"

Everyone laughed.

Li Mu was also very happy. It was his ability to bring his own people.

The limo stopped, and Li Mu, Jiang Wen and others got out of the car and walked onto the red carpet.

Li Mu and Jiang Wen have naturally become the focus of the media. After all, Li Mu and Jiang Wen are both one of the favorites to win tonight. Maybe what they are filming now will be the headlines tomorrow!
  If you don’t win an award, it will still be a headline. It will be a hot spot no matter what.

Jiang Wen also posed quite coquettishly for a while and cooperated with the media to take a few more photos.

Naturally, the two also ushered in a red carpet interview.

"Li, according to media predictions, your chances of winning this time are not as good as those of other movies. Are you confident?"

Li Mu smiled when he heard this: "I hope the good luck at the Golden Globes can continue to the Oscars!"

"Hahaha"

"Jiang, do you expect to become the first Chinese Oscar winner?"

"That is required."

Jiang Wen subconsciously spoke Chinese for the first time, but it was obvious that the host did not understand, and then said in English: "Of course!"

Americans wouldn't understand Jiang Wen's words, but the audience watching the live broadcast burst into laughter.
