Chapter 317: "Charcoal in the Snow"

...... on the web

"Hahaha, I guessed right, it's really Zhou Mu. ”

"I thought it was Yu Nian. ”

"The two are good friends, of course they are partners together, it is estimated that this time, Yu Nian is the producer again, responsible for the checks. ”

Watching the lively, I am never afraid of big things.

For Zhou Mu suddenly announced that he was going to shoot a movie, and the subject matter was related to Zhang Bo, this was clearly in response to Mo Huaixuan's provocation more than a month ago.

Waiting for you to fight......

Gee.

The smell of gunpowder is so thick.

Everyone has their own position and opinions on this matter.

It's nothing more than support, opposition, neutrality.

Zhou Mu had already expected that when this news was announced, there would definitely be all kinds of hustle and bustle on the Internet, and even a miasma, so he didn't bother to pay attention.

He's having a headache right now.

is mainly the preparation of the crew, thousands of things, all kinds of trivial things, gathered on his hands, and he needs his clapstick.

These things, which used to be shared with residual thoughts, are easy to handle.

But now it's all backlogged on Zhou Mu. Strictly speaking, from now on, it will be his first time to fully control the crew.

Costumes, props, location, sets......

There are all kinds of things, one after another, and he needs to decide.

This is the power of the director, and it cannot be faked.

If you even have to be the shopkeeper of these things, then when you officially shoot a movie, who will recognize the authority of the director?

So no matter how troublesome it is, no matter how trivial and cumbersome, Zhou Mu has to do it himself.

Fortunately, the crew members pulled up by Yang Hong are basically those who have worked together before, and they are a group of people who know the roots, and they will not go against Zhou Mu's arrangement.

So it took a week or two to run in, and everything was on track.

The most important thing is that under Chu Yuan's activities, his script has passed the review of the Film Bureau and officially filed the project.

"Zhou Mu, let me tell you ......"

Chu Yuan chattered, "This time, I really let go, and more than ten years of contacts and friendships were all spent on this matter." ”

"If you don't succeed, you will become a benevolent!"

Instead of complaining, he was convinced, "Some friends don't understand why I'm taking this risk." They don't understand my love for Zhang Bo. ”

"In the eyes of some people, I am a speculator, just by being unconventional, publishing some 'sensational' articles, 'pointing fingers' at Zhang Bo, and winning public attention. ”

Chu Yuan shook his head, his tone deep, "The old-fashioned never refuse to admit that they are outdated with the times, and they will only complain that the times can't tolerate themselves. ”

"This is a disease, and it must be cured. ”

He clenched his fists, "Your movie is a good start." Even if it fails, it can become an anthill that destroys the causeway!"

“......”

Zhou Mu was full of black lines.

After doing it for a long time, Chu Yuan was not optimistic about this movie, he just wanted to be a "martyr" and wake up more colleagues with his own "sacrifice".

This spirit of self-sacrifice is really singable and weeping.

Zhou Mu rolled his eyes, no longer paying attention to Chu Yuan, who was still intoxicated by himself, he was going on a date now......

But not with a beautiful woman.

Near the company, an elegant tea house. Zhou Mu walked out directly, and under the candid photos of some entertainment notes, he came here openly.

The manager of the teahouse personally came out to greet him, giving the big star enough face.

As for the reporters who poured in to cover the ......

Inexistent.

When it comes to the point of A-list stars, there is naturally a set of unspoken rules. is not a reporter, but he is qualified to interview Zhou Mu.

It's not big newspapers, big websites, official media, companies that just ignore it.

During the informal activities, the reporter rushed up to interview, is it really that the bodyguard next to him is paid for nothing? Therefore, those entertainment reporters have no way to contact Zhou Mu at all, so they can only "secretly take pictures" from afar.

This is also why, a lot of entertainment news, most of which are "talking by looking at pictures".

A picture at the beginning, and the content is all up to the editor.

It doesn't matter if it's true or not.

Traffic is key.

......

Tea house, private room.

The person who had an appointment with Zhou Mu had been waiting for a long time. Zhou Mucai entered the door, and the man immediately greeted him with a smile, "Teacher Zhou, thank you for coming to talk about it." ”

Zhou Mu sat down and said directly: "Manager Tang, you and I have dealt with each other so many times, and we can barely be regarded as acquaintances." I won't be polite to you, don't go around the bend with me, and talk straight about something. I've been busy lately and don't want to waste my time. ”

"Okay, refreshing. ”

Tang Dongqing smiled, "It's worthy of Teacher Zhou, frank." Then I'll get straight to the point...... I don't know if there is an opportunity for Shifang Angel Investment Company to participate in your project?"

"You're really optimistic about me?"

Zhou Mu was a little surprised.

He didn't go online, it doesn't mean that he doesn't know, and the general public opinion of people in the industry basically looks down on him. I don't think he has the ability to shoot "Zhang Bo" well.

In fact, the industry is very fair, not only is it not optimistic about him, but it is also not optimistic about Mo Huaixuan.

Someone even spoke, just to see who of the two was worse. It is such a public opinion environment that makes investors daunting.

You must know that after a few movies, some investors have more trust in Qinghong culture, including Zhou Mu.

However, Zhou Mu's "Zhang Bo" movie was approved, but no investor came to the door to negotiate investment.

This shows that most people feel that Zhou Mu can't control such a theme.

After all, there is Zhang Huang preparing, and Mo Huaixuan took over the pearl and jade of "Zhang Bo", and then making a genre film with the same theme, it will definitely compare with each other, step on the low and praise the high.

What's more, Zhou Mu wants to fight with Mo Huaixuan, maybe he deliberately arranges two movies to be released on one schedule.

In this case, the box office must be miserable.

Either they die together, or one side wins a big victory, and the other loses all their money, and there is absolutely no win-win result.

So this project, the risk is very high.

Which one doesn't get tangled?

"Yes. ”

Tang Dongqing smiled.

The company may not be optimistic about the movie, but it is indeed optimistic about Zhou Mu.

In addition, in his opinion, the move of Shifang Investment Company can be called a send-off in the snow, and it is no wonder that Zhou Mu is not moved.

After all, when no one was optimistic, he came with good intentions. If Zhou Mu is emotional, maybe he will cry a lot, which is normal.

It's just that Zhou Mu didn't cry, but asked calmly: "How much do you want to invest, and are there any conditions?"

Cold-blooded......

Tang Dongqing was slandered in his heart, but on the surface, he picked up a cup and drank tea, very confident, and wrote lightly: "What is your budget?"

This tone, this attitude, and this confidence, as if no matter how many words Zhou Mu says, it is not a problem.

"A billion. Zhou Mu said unceremoniously.

"Poof!"

Tang Dongqing squirted out a sip of tea, wiped his lips in embarrassment, and said angrily: "What you want to make is obviously a small-budget movie, how can you make a lion...... Ugh!"

Seeing Zhou Mu's sneer.

Tang Dongqing calmed down, and his face was a little more embarrassed.

"Sure enough. ”

Zhou Mu said lightly: "You already know that the investment cost of my movie is not large, so I deliberately came to sell it." ”

"Ahem!"

Tang Dongqing hated to slap himself in the mouth, why did he leak it.

Yes, they just inquired that the "Zhang Bo" that Zhou Mu was going to shoot was not an epic blockbuster with an investment of more than 100 million yuan as everyone imagined, but a movie with a cost of tens of millions, so they came over to "send charcoal in the snow".

In their imagination, even if they lose tens of millions, what can they do?

As long as you take advantage of Zhou Mu's relationship and draw him into his camp, this loss is worth it.

But I didn't expect that Zhou Mu didn't play cards according to the routine, and he would ask for one billion when he opened his mouth.

It's no wonder that Tang Dongqing was in a hurry and showed his feet.

Ay.

Tang Dongqing sighed to herself.

It's not that he's stupid, it's mainly that the enemy is too cunning and has a lot of eyes. A kind person like him is naturally not an opponent.

After comforting himself, Tang Dongqing had to change his strategy and said with an embarrassed smile: "Teacher Zhou, you are really discerning, I can't hide it from you." ”

"In that case, I'll spread it out. ”

Tang Dongqing changed his serious expression, "Teacher Zhou, do you know that you have stabbed the hornet's nest, and many people hate you to the bone." ”

"Oh?"

Zhou Mu raised his eyebrows.

If it doesn't work softly, do you start intimidating?

It's like a fortune teller on the street, who says oops, it's not good when you see someone, and when you see that your Yin Tang is black, I'm afraid that there will be a bloody disaster.

With such a trick, he will not be fooled.

“......”

After waiting for a long time, seeing that Zhou Mu did not cooperate, this made Tang Dongqing helpless, "Teacher Zhou, I am not alarmist, but telling a fact." ”

"You want to shoot Zhang Bo, which hinders the interests of many people. For them, you are moving their cake, how can you be indifferent. ”

Tang Dongqing reminded: "Haven't you noticed that there have been a lot more black materials on the Internet recently than before, and this is what they did." ”

"And, that's just the beginning, little ...... Nudge. ”

He said seriously: "When your movie is finished, there will definitely be a lot of trouble waiting for you, so that you can learn a lesson and suffer hardships." ”

Zhou Mu understood as soon as he heard it.

hacked him, and it was not necessarily Mo Huaixuan who troubled him, but invested in the behind-the-scenes capital of the biopic "Zhang Bo".

These people are not Mo Huaixuan, but they will not let Zhou Mu's movie be released for the sake of the so-called "showdown". The greatest possibility is to nip the threat in the bud.

"So what?"

In this regard, Zhou Mu scoffed, and was not worried, "No matter how powerful those people are, can they still cover the sky with one hand?"

Of course, this is impossible, if capital has this ability, it is not capital, but official ......

Ahem, anyway, the sky is blue and the sun is bright. As long as he sits upright, he is naturally not afraid of those ghost tricks.

"Of course, it's impossible to cover the sky with one hand, but it's definitely okay to cause some trouble and make some small stumbling blocks. ”

Tang Dongqing reminded, "For example, in the theater scheduling and distribution channels, it is not difficult for them to make some small means." ”

“......”

Zhou Mu's eyes flashed, and he suddenly asked: "The establishment of Hongtian Entertainment, ordinary people don't understand the meaning, but we in the industry know that this is the beginning of the end of capital and the entertainment industry." ”

"People's tens of billions of plans, all the rage, every three or five times, on the news. ”

Zhou Mu provoked: "Why haven't you moved? You must know that there are some things, once you lose the opportunity, you will fall behind step by step, and it will be difficult to smooth the gap." ”
