Chapter 675 The Great Wall is coming

After the editing of "In the Name of People" was completed, it entered the final review stage.

If there are no problems, it will most likely be released at the beginning of next year, and the final adjustment time will depend on the review.

However, the smooth progress was also thanks to the efforts of Li Xuezheng and Fan Ziwen.

Dramas with missions are different. They have been given a lot of green lights along the way. Otherwise, given the scale involved in such a drama, it would be very normal for it to be stuck for several years or even not be able to be broadcast in the past.

Li Mu had just come out of the Supreme People's Procuratorate when La Peikang suddenly called.

"Director Li, China Film Group will hold a 2016 strategic cooperation press conference in Beijing on Friday. Director Li, do you have time to come over?"

La Peikang invited.

The strategic cooperation press conference announced the list of co-production films in the next one or two years, including "Dying to Survive" co-produced with Mengying Media.

"Boss La, I won't go. I have too many activities these days. I'll go home and spend time with my child. The little guy hasn't seen me during the day for a few days."

Li Mu smiled and declined, saying that it was optional to attend the strategic launch conference, so there was no need to go.

"Hahaha, that's right, the child is still young, we still need to watch him more!"

La Peikang was not surprised, and he probably guessed that Li Mu would refuse.

As time gets closer to the premiere of "The Great Wall", the film and television industry has gradually become agitated. The last time there was agitation was the days before National Day.

At that time, Li Mu's "Operation Red Sea" filled the industry with expectations.

This time, Zhang Yimou came with "The Great Wall", a Sino-US co-production blockbuster with unique Chinese culture.

"Why wear such pretty clothes? You'll end up wrapped in a coat anyway."

Li Mu leaned against the wall of the cloakroom, watching Liu Yifei trying on clothes one by one, and listening to Liu Yifei asking those questions over and over again, "Does it look good?" "How about this one?" "I feel fat, yes, am I fat?"
"You don't understand. Women dress to please themselves. If I dress nicely and you think I look good, then I'll be happy too."

Liu Yifei was still trying on clothes tirelessly.

"Well, that's it, a white dress as the base, then a black coat, and then a pair of women's high-heeled boots."

Liu Yifei was matching the music while talking to herself.

Of course, this was said for Li Mu to hear.

"Give me the coat!"

Liu Yifei bent down to tighten her shoes, and the perfect curve set off her graceful and slender figure. Although she didn't have a devilish figure, she was still very attractive.

Li Mu picked out the piece of clothing Liu Yifei wanted from the cabinet that was specifically used to hang coats and other clothes, and handed it to her.

"I have to say, your fashion sense has improved over the years," Li Mu praised.

"Can I speak? I've always been this tall. I have artistic talent. I can match these colors easily."

Liu Yifei also pointed out with her finger that these were just small matters.

"Haha, they were all so fancy before. If it weren't for your good looks, I don't know how ugly they would have looked."

Li Mu showed no mercy in his words, which immediately aroused Liu Yifei's anger.

The premiere of "The Great Wall", this grand event, has attracted extraordinary attention in the imperial capital today.

There were 12 popular stars gathered at the scene, and fans on both sides were extremely enthusiastic.

When Li Mu and Liu Yifei arrived, they attracted cheers from fans on both sides.

"Wow, so exaggerated!" Liu Yifei couldn't help but exclaimed when she saw the lineup of the premiere. This scene was really a bit grand.

There were soldiers guarding on both sides of the red carpet, and a variety of "Taotie" posters were standing on both sides.

Zhang Yimou, Jing Tian and Matt Damon came over to greet them. Li Mu saw this and quickly congratulated them:
"Brother, congratulations on the box office success!"

"Matt, Tiantian, congratulations!"

Liu Yifei also followed Li Mu and congratulated him.

"Hahaha, I hope it's a big box office hit. Please come in!" Zhang Yi laughed and motioned Li Mu and Liu Yifei to go inside.

Jing Tian and Matt Damon followed closely behind.

At this time, the other actors who were familiar with Li Mu came over to say hello, including Liu Dehua.

Li Mu also realized that Zhang Yi was deliberately arranging the ranking.

These days, the promotion of "The Great Wall" is very hot, but the ranking of the 12 popular stars is the focus of fans. Moreover, when the first trailer of "The Great Wall" was released, Liu Dehua's experience caused dissatisfaction among fans. At that time, in the official ranking, the long-established Liu Dehua ranked fifth, ranking lower than Jing Tian. At that time, some fans started a topic discussion of "The Great Wall movie gives Liu Dehua justice", and even reported that his role was deleted.

Now it seems that Zhang Yi is planning to use the premiere to directly resolve this issue. There is no doubt about Jing Tian's role ranking, but fans and netizens still don't know.

"Tiantian, you are the protagonist today!" Liu Yifei said to Jingtian with a smile.

Compared to Liu Yifei who was still wearing a coat today, Jing Tian could only wear a white dress for the premiere, looking like a frozen beauty.

"Thank you, Senior Sister. No, there are also Brother Matt Damon and Brother Liu Dehua, they are all the protagonists!"

"Others may not know, but we do. There's no need to be modest. The ranking is only about the role and the amount of screen time."

Li Mu smiled and walked into the venue and saw many familiar faces, such as Zhang Mo, Zhang Ting and Zhang Yi's family who were also there.

"Brother, you guys go ahead and do your work, we'll be fine."

"Okay, let's get busy then."

Zhang Yi did not refuse, as today was indeed a very busy day.

"Go over and say hello to Director Li!"

When Zhang Ting saw Zhang Yi coming with Li Mu and Liu Yifei, she touched Zhang Mo.

Zhang Mo also stood up quickly, "Director Li, Sister Yifei!"

"I've seen the statistics of your new movie. It's pretty good for a newcomer. Keep up the good work!"

Li Mu smiled and said, "Twenty-Eight Years Old Minor" only earned 2000 million on the first day, and it is estimated that this movie has the potential to earn over million.

However, for Zhang Mo, this result is still acceptable.

"Thank you, Director Li!"

Zhang Mo nodded happily.

The person who came from China Film Group was the general manager Jiang Ping, who was quite familiar with Li Mu and came over to say hello.

As time went by, the main creators came in one by one, led by Zhang Yimou, followed by Matt Damon, Jing Tian, ​​Pedro Pascal, Liu Dehua, William Dafoe, Zhang Hanyu and others.

Many big-name movie stars caused the scene to cheer again.

However, as the only woman at the scene who could compare with Jing Tian, ​​Liu Bing, wearing a light-colored lace embroidered skirt, had an outstanding temperament and also attracted a lot of attention.

"Who is this?" Liu Yifei obviously didn't know him.

Li Mu looked at the information and said calmly, "A senior student at the Central Academy of Drama!"

"Oh, Director Zhang still likes to use actors from the Central Academy of Drama. He even uses newcomers for such a big movie."

"It's very useful. The teaching of the actor class in Beijing Film Academy is indeed inferior!"

Li Mu also spoke up for the Central Academy of Drama, mainly because the acting class at the Beijing Film Academy has been a bit desolate in recent years, and it’s only the older generation that is supporting it.

But there are indeed many celebrities.

After the creators told the stories behind the shooting of this unprecedented blockbuster, this blockbuster that fans have been looking forward to for several years finally appeared in front of everyone as the screen lit up.

Zhang Yi looked at the screen with a very complicated expression at this moment, and finally let out a weak sigh.

Before I watched this movie, I felt it was an epic movie just by looking at the title.

Why?

The Great Wall is not only a cultural treasure standing tall in the world, but also a symbol of the Chinese nation.

Such a name cannot be used casually. Since it is named The Great Wall, it must be a magnificent and grand blockbuster.

This is the opinion of movie fans and critics, as well as the opinion of all the guests.

This is what Liu Yifei was thinking at the moment.

However, the story started out fine, and everyone was still thinking about the big scene that would happen later. However, as they watched, something seemed to be getting more and more wrong, because what was being told here was:
In ancient times, an elite army of China launched a massive self-defense counterattack to protect mankind from the invasion of foreign monsters. The decisive battle with the monsters took place on the world-famous Great Wall.

This is almost a magical story with no historical background.

And the key point is that a European named William and his companions traveled thousands of miles to China to steal the formula of gunpowder and brought it back to Europe. They were then shocked by the magnificence of the Great Wall and moved by the loyalty and bravery of China's Shadowless Forbidden Army soldiers. They then joined the battle without hesitation to protect mankind.

Although the several major colors of the Shadowless Army are indeed very eye-catching and you can tell at a glance that they are Zhang Yi's characteristics, and the grand scene of the "Taotie" attacking the city is indeed large and shocking, but that seems to be all.
