Chapter 567 Live in the Moment
After all, "La La Land" is a literary film. Although it has a romantic attribute, is directed by Li Mu, stars Liu Yifei, and has the Palme d'Or, it is not likely to be as popular as a commercial film.

It’s only a matter of time before it breaks the record of literary films with this box office.

North America performed well, with more than 1300 million US dollars on the first day of filming, which is very good for a movie.

The time then came to August 8, Liu Yifei’s birthday.

This birthday, Li Mu and Liu Yifei planned to have a simple birthday at home with just their two families and a few of their classmates and friends, without making any announcement to the public.

"Isn't the gift too little?"

Tang Yan was a little nervous, "Would you like to buy more?"

"No, neither Brother Mu nor Yifei care about these things!"

Luo Jin smiled lightly and said, let's go, it's time.

In Liu Yifei's villa, friends came one after another.

"Is Luo Jin's rumored target here?"

Shu Chang looked very pleased and asked as soon as he came.

"He said he brought it with him, and she is not the subject of scandals."

Liu Yifei complained, "Don't say that later."

"I know, can I still not understand?"

Zhu Yawen and Huang Bo arrived one after another, followed by Zhou Yang and others.

Luo Jin and Tang Yan arrived not too slowly, just behind a few others.

"welcome!"

As the hosts, Li Mu and Liu Yifei naturally stood up to welcome them.

"Wow!"

Zhu Yawen's funny voice sounded, and Huang Bo also echoed.

"What are you arguing about? I've never seen a girlfriend before."

Tang Yan blushed, so Luo Jin could only stand up and defend her.

"Hahaha!!!"

"."

The friendships during school days are actually more pure than after coming out. It is not easy to maintain a few good friends when you grow up.

Of course, the stronger you are, the more friendships you will have. However, this kind of friendship is not too pure. Of course, there are exceptions, but they are relatively few.

Three or five friends, when they get together at a certain opportunity, they will basically talk about what happened when they were young.

There are no exceptions for any gathering.

Liu Yifei and Tang Yan also got along well with each other, and they became quite familiar with each other after a while.

"one more year older."

At night, when everyone dispersed, Liu Yifei held her head and looked at the starry sky. A few scattered stars were shining with faint light, which came from who knows how many millions of years ago.

"Live in the moment, why bother"

Li Mu was also imitating Liu Yifei at this moment, holding his head and looking at the sky.

This look of the two of them would be a beautiful picture if someone took a photo of it.

""La La Land" has accumulated 10 million in 5.3 days, which is only one step away from the 7 million of the literary film "Wolf Totem"."

"'La La Land' has earned US$7000 million in North America, and its global box office has exceeded US$1.8 million!"

"."

From mid-to-late August to mid-to-late September, after the summer vacation, it is a period of slight downturn for the film and television industry.

If you want to climax again, you have to wait until the National Day holiday. During this period, "La La Land" is still struggling to support itself, but it is one of the few movies that can still attract box office.

At the global box office, "La La Land" did not disappoint. At present, it seems that it will not be a big problem to exceed US$4 million, and it may be able to hit US$5 million.

Entering September, Li Mu's main work has been focused on "Operation Red Sea".

Preparations have entered a white-hot stage, and advanced personnel are already preparing in Morocco.

In September, naturally, the Venice International Film Festival is indispensable.

Among them, Zhang Xinyu, who once had the "Northeastern aunt look", once again attended the red carpet. She appeared in an all-white off-shoulder fishtail dress, which was a little less distinctive and a little more normal.

However, this side of the industry once again caused a sensation because of a piece of news.

"Chinese films have laws to abide by! The film law has been brewing for many years and has finally been released!"

As the scale of the industry continues to develop, the bill continues to improve, and this time there is finally news.

The industry is looking forward to it because the draft for comments mentions several major initiatives.

For example, the entry threshold for film shooting is lowered, and companies engaged in film production are no longer required to supervise the omission and underreporting of box office and pre-roll advertising. It also includes tax incentives for film shooting, distribution, and screening. For many circles, It is beneficial for companies and companies that want to enter the industry.

When Li Mu, Wang Changtian, Yu Dong and others were having dinner and chatting, they occasionally discussed that after all, those who work in business must be sensitive to policies.

At the same time, another musical film was released, from Johnnie To's "The Gorgeous Office Worker".

A love musical about the struggle of working people to survive.

"Musals should be made, it doesn't matter if they don't do well at the box office!"

"The West has gone very far in this regard, while China has been a lot slower. Director Li Mu is ahead in this regard! Music, as a kind of grammar, should also have its development, even if it is just a small step, it doesn't matter.

I think there are some things that should be done by someone. When the market is hot enough and everyone makes movies that make money, it doesn’t make sense. "

"In fact, it doesn't matter if the subject matter is bad. Director Li Mu's "La La Land" is an example. As long as the filming is good enough, you can still make money."

When Johnnie To is being interviewed, he will mention "La La Land" from the past two weeks from time to time.

However, things didn't go as expected. Although it was affected by "La La Land", the box office on the first day exceeded 1500 million, and it was still on Wednesday.

However, due to poor reputation, the sales took a sharp turn, falling from 1100 million to more than 800 million.

The film and television market is also slowly waiting for the arrival of the National Day, because everyone knows that unless a dark horse blockbuster emerges, the downturn will continue for more than half a month.

During this period of time, Li Mu basically spent time with Liu Yifei besides being busy with "Operation Red Sea".

After all, he would have to go filming soon.

The frequency of the two people's tooth-fighting festivals began to decrease, because as time went by, some precautions came.

Liu Yifei's belly has slowly begun to show signs.

"Can't you still feel the baby moving?"

Li Mu gently laid his ear on Liu Yifei's belly and stayed there for a while. He heard nothing and could only ask Liu Yifei.

"The doctor said that it takes 4-5 months to feel the fetus moving. If you want to listen, you need to use a stethoscope or earpiece."

Liu Yifei smiled at this moment, looking particularly gentle, like the spring breeze blowing on her face.

"I really wanted to hear the child's movement before I went to take the photo."

Li Mu couldn't help but feel a bit of expectation at this moment. After all, they were connected by blood, and there was an inexplicable feeling.

"Yes, I feel faster."

Liu Yifei tilted her head slightly and leaned on Li Mu's shoulder, "We're going there at the end of the month, right?"

Li Mu reached out and touched Liu Yifei's hair:
"Well, the special training over there went pretty well, and the Moroccan side is also very well prepared. I thought I would leave early and come back early."

"Well, it's okay. My child and I are waiting for you to come back. We must make an excellent movie."
