Chapter 332 No continuation of filming

Typically, Hollywood studios release box office revenue over the weekend.

However, this convention was broken by the tragedy in the theater on the 20th of this month.

Major Hollywood studios, including Warner Bros., Sony, Fox, Disney, and Paramount, announced on the 21st that they do not plan to release weekend box office revenue before the 23rd.

Rentak, an organization that specializes in tracking box office, also does not plan to disclose weekend box office figures.

To show respect for the victims of the Aurora, Colorado, theater shooting and their families.

Li Mu and Ning Hao went to the headquarters together.

There is finally news about the release of "No Man's Land".

"coming."

When Tong Gang saw Li Mu and Ning Hao, he motioned for them to sit down.

"The issues mentioned by Zhao Baohua have been basically changed after the review team saw the latest film. Let's choose a release date next year."

Tong Gang sat down and said slowly.

Ning Hao breathed out: "Thank you, Tong Bureau!"

"You don't need to thank me, just thank me for making more mainstream films. You have also seen the situation with "Batman""

Tong Gang waved his hand.

Ning Hao smiled.

Li Mu didn't know what to say, and the example he gave was so overwhelming that no one could refute it.

""No Man's Land" has been revised 6 times. The film has made great adjustments to the characters and ending, and it is finally ready for release."

After Ning Hao and Li Mu came out of the headquarters, Ning Hao raised his head and let out a long sigh of relief.

"It's beyond recognition."

Li Mu nodded. It was finally scheduled to be released, but it was a bit different from the version he originally watched.

The female character played by Yu Nan is a victim who never resisted. In the end, Xu Zheng's death prompted her to kill the bad guy with a knife.

But this ending is too unconventional, and the final solution to the problem is still extreme violence, so naturally it cannot pass the review.

So it was modified here, and it became that evil will be punished, and people must redeem themselves. This is a more mainstream value.

"Let's go back and check the schedule carefully."

Li Mu patted Ning Hao on the shoulder. This movie was finally showing off.

"What do you think I'll do with it for the prize?"

Ning Hao suddenly became ambitious.

"Venice? It seems it's too late."

Li Mu calculated the time and realized that he might not be able to make it in time for Venice.

"Berlin next year. I will win all the awards for this movie."

Ning Hao smiled.

"The Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers are also going?"

"Well, I won't go then."

"Hahaha"

The two of them burst into laughter.

All judges of the 69th Venice International Film Festival have been exposed.

The chairman of the jury for the main competition unit of the Venice Film Festival is American director Michael Mann.

The judges come from all over the world, including Huaxia Xiangjiang producer and director Chen Kexin, Serbian artist Maria Abramovich, French actress and model Leticia Caster, Israeli director and screenwriter Ali Forman, a total of 9 people.

The chairman of the Horizon Jury is Chinese director Li Mu.

The judges are composed of Dutch director Sandra Den Hamer from the Rotterdam International Film Festival, British visual artist and filmmaker Islam who was born in Bangladesh, American independent producer Cleot, Lebanese actress and It consists of seven people including filmmaker Nadine Labaki, Macedonian filmmaker Mirjo Manchevski and Iranian filmmaker and photographer Amir Naderi.

Two domestic directors attended Venice and served as judges. The film was full of Chinese elements and made netizens shout out.

"Calling domestic directors to submit to Venice as soon as possible."

"There is only one film festival left this year. If you don't vote for Venice, where else will you vote?"

Directors in the industry are also dumbfounded.

Is this something we can get through if we vote?

"Painted Skin 2" has exceeded 7 million in theaters and is heading towards the million mark.

Of course, a celebration banquet is indispensable.

"We have the most professional team, the most amazing actors and special effects companies, and we have reached high standards in all aspects, so it is inevitable that we will become a hit at the box office. We are very grateful to them for their work behind the scenes to create such a perfect performance for us. Platform, I hope everyone can share the joy together.”

Wu Ershan delivered a speech on the stage.

"Director Wu, the audience is very curious whether there will be a third part of "Painted Skin"?"

Nowadays, the Internet is hotly discussing whether there will be a sequel to "Painted Skin".

"You have to ask Director Li, the founder of the Painted Skin project."

Wu Ershan smiled and asked the question to Li Mu.

The reporters all looked at Li Mu.

"Every story should have its ending, and the story of "Painted Skin" ends here."

Li Mu has no intention of continuing the project, and the reputation of "Painted Skin 2" speaks for itself.

Continuing on will have no other use than making bad money.

Reporters immediately started talking. They thought Mengying Media would continue to develop the "Painted Skin" project, but they didn't expect it to stop. According to this trend, "Painted Skin 3" will definitely not be too bad at the box office.

"Director Li, are you giving up such a good IP like this?"

Zhou Xun smiled lightly and said that this movie is the highest-grossing movie she has ever starred in.

"If you take pictures anymore, you guys will all be old." Li Mu joked.

Jiao Enjun and Zhou Xun are not young either.

"Director Li, my childlike face does not look old, Brother Jiao, I am a flower in my 40s."

Zhou Xun pointed at himself and Jiao Enjun and said.

"Hahaha"

Everyone was happy, but this was true, and if I continued to shoot down, I could still shoot it once or twice.

"Forget it. Besides, haven't you been very busy? A few days ago, I just heard that you are taking a break for the second half of the year and will not take on any more dramas."

“Hey, I’m busy, but there are new projects to look forward to.”

Li Mu's statement at the celebration banquet that he would not make a sequel to "Painted Skin" was also spread.

"Li Mu claimed that every story should have an ending, and "Painted Skin" will not continue to make sequels."

""Painted Skin 2" will be the end, Mengying Media does not plan to continue producing "Painted Skin 3"!"

The audience was not too happy.

"Although "Painted Skin 2" is not particularly good, "Painted Skin 3" can still be made."

"I think so. It's rare to find an IP that can make a sequel. Why do you just give up and stop filming?"

“I can’t see Zhou Xun’s nine-tailed demon fox!”

The reaction from the industry was also intense.

Some production company bosses are even more distressed.

"What a loser."

If it were them, they would definitely continue filming. Why not continue with such a good box office?

Whatever you say must be circled to the point where it can no longer be circled.

"Hollywood sequels are rampant. It is recommended that good domestic IPs learn from Hollywood. This will be conducive to the healthy development of the domestic film industry."

Some experts have given advice and called on everyone to learn from Hollywood.

In recent years, Hollywood IP sequels have indeed harvested the global box office. One after another, they have eaten up the dividends of IP to the end.

However, Li Mu ignored these people's suggestions.

If you blindly rest on your laurels, there will always be a time when everything is exhausted.

Recently, news about celebrity love affairs has been emerging one after another.

For example, the relationship between Li Chen and Zhang Xinyu, members of the Sword Sword Cult, the man posted an affectionate message on Weibo, and the woman was moved and said bluntly: I will be reborn from the ashes because I met the right person.

Li Mu even laughed. Once something happens to this so-called right person, he might just run away without even taking care of himself.

Of course, the one that gets the most attention is "Zhang Sa Lian".

This relationship shocked everyone's jaws. The most important thing is that the two people's circles are not compatible at all. In the eyes of netizens, how can two people who have no intersection in life be together, a CCTV host and an international movie star? ?

"Zhang Ziyi has seen the vicissitudes of life in a wealthy family, and her views on mate selection have become more mature."

"A smoke bomb, definitely a smoke bomb. Promoting "The Grandmaster" is the focus."

"I guess I want to rely on Xiao Sa to restore public opinion and reputation. Poor Xiao Sa, please be more careful."

There are even dedicated industry personnel analyzing this relationship.

At the same time, David was a little lucky to see the latest Hollywood news in Crystal Pictures.

"Fortunately, I listened to my boss and didn't use their wedding to promote it."

David patted his chest. If this was used, the fans would definitely explode this time.

Stewart was photographed having an affair with a married director and made headlines in magazines.

All of a sudden Hollywood knew.

You must know that Stewart was the most lucrative actress in Hollywood last year. Hollywood newspapers sold this report like crazy, and many netizens on social media condemned and cursed Stewart.

Cyber ​​violence is not exclusive to China, it is the same all over the world.

"Boss, I'm afraid this will affect our movie."

David's face looked a little ugly. He didn't care about this, but the movie was about his year-end award.

"Remind Stewart to send a letter of apology immediately."

"Oh, I understand. I immediately asked him to apologize to the public. Damn it, it will be released in a few months, so we can't wait any longer."

David cursed.

"It's one thing to apologize to the public, mainly her fiancé Robert Pattinson. My request should try not to affect the final part of "The Twilight Saga."

"Oh, I understand, boss, you still have the right idea."

David was reminded by Li Mu and instantly realized that the person apologizing for was wrong.

Fans were very satisfied with the relationship between the two before, after all, the movie overlapped with reality.

But at this time, Stewart's behavior is tantamount to betraying the fans, but what the fans want is not Stewart's apology to them, but Robert Pattinson.

"Hurry up and take some time."

Li Mu hung up the phone.

"Mr. Li, are you attending the seminar or..."

Liu Weijuan knocked on the door and came in to ask.

Teito University Film and Television Drama Research Center, Chinese Filmmakers Association "Film Art", Xuebao Film Critics Society, and Nortel Film Department, four film academic units have gathered together many well-known important experts and scholars in Teito University film research and criticism circles, at Teito University Academic seminars on "Search" and "Painted Skin 2" were held.

"Search" is considered a literary film, and its market and commercial value has naturally been proved by its high box office of over 1.5 million.

"Painted Skin 2" is a shot in the arm for this year's sluggish domestic commercial films.

Naturally, these two movies were taken out and studied carefully.
