Chapter 559: When you say that, I feel like I'm a bull
It's fast into April.
Mu Chen's works were not shortlisted for the Oscars this year, but he was also invited to be the guest of honor.
Dream Pictures' films were also shortlisted, but they weren't amazing.
"Gone with the Wind", written by Mu Chen and directed by Steve, has just been completed, and the post-production has not yet been completed, so naturally he did not participate.
However, there will definitely be a place for this film at the Oscars next year.
After participating in this year's Oscars, Mu Chen did not stay in Los Angeles for long.
Marin's wedding is approaching, and friends for so many years, how can they miss it.
The wedding, held in Yanjing, did not follow the trend and held a wedding in Muchen's "Titanic" theme hotel.
Nowadays, Muchen's hotel has become the first choice for many couples' wedding banquets.
Of course, only if your financial conditions allow it.
Muchen this theme hotel has love to death, but more because of the interior decoration style of the hotel.
The interior of this hotel is full of Western style, which is undoubtedly a good match for a Western-style wedding.
From nobles to commoners, there is a need for any grade.
Well, it's the civilian style, and it's not something that civilians can afford.
The "Titanic" theme hotel is now extremely hot.
And the business of the Dawn Dream Theme Park is also extremely hot.
It's just that Mu Chen pays less attention.
Marin's wedding was still held at the hotel owned by Wansheng Group in Yanjing.
Mu Ze, Mu Chen, Wang Hao and others were all held in this hotel.
Guests gathered, and many big names in the circle squeezed time to come. The bride is not an insider, and naturally there are many guests outside the circle.
"The old horse is now a matter of his mind. Zhang Gang looked at the stage and said.
Ma Lin's father is a well-known photographer in the circle, and he has worked with Zhang Gang and others, and they are familiar with each other.
"If my son can be like Marin, he can wake up laughing when he sleeps. Xu Wen said.
Marin is definitely better than blue.
Even if he didn't follow the path of a photographer, he changed careers to become a director.
It's all a circle, and it is natural to be able to compare.
Marin's achievements are definitely much better than his father's.
What's more, the director has a great advantage over the cinematographer itself.
Mu Chen is not counted, Marin is definitely the hottest director of his age, and he is also the most accomplished director.
Of course, the reason why Xu Wen said this is because of Ma Lin's filial piety.
Marin's father retired and wanted to buy a courtyard house for retirement, so Marin immediately paid for it.
It is said that he also borrowed a lot from Mu Chen.
If you have a son like this, what more can you ask for!
Of course, before this, for Marin's lifelong event, his father was also heartbroken.
Now, the big stone in my heart has landed.
"Your son is not bad, although he has not entered the film and television industry, isn't he also thriving in the business circle?" Chen Mouzhi said with a smile.
"What is the wind and water, compared with Mu Chen, it is nothing. Xu Wen said.
However, there was a bit of pride on his face.
Obviously, he is quite satisfied with his son's achievements.
"Mu Chen, that guy is a metamorphosis, who compares to him, isn't it nothing?" Zhang Gang smiled and said.
Mu Chen's achievements in the film and television industry, there is no need to say more.
But in the business circle, Mu Chen is definitely a legend.
His legendary color is much stronger than that of Wang Hao.
Wang Hao can be said to be the most successful among the stars who have quit the entertainment industry to do business.
But Mu Chen has invested in those industries of his, and even such as shared bicycles, Meituan, Douyin, etc., are all Mu Chen's ideas.
Although Mu Chen is still active in the entertainment industry, his industries are all over the field.
Mu Chen, who was rated by the media as the star who is the best at investing.
Although many of his investments have lost money, more of them have made a lot of money.
Otherwise, Mu Chen would not have stayed on the rich list all year round.
"Director Zhang, I'll just treat you as praising me. Mu Chen said with a smile.
Is it really okay for you to say I'm a pervert to my face?
Zhang Gang laughed and said, "Your new film is really going to shoot a fantasy movie?"
"Hmm!" Mu Chen nodded.
This matter, not to mention that it has been spread all over the circle, there are few people who don't know about it.
"It's not easy to make this kind of movie. Xu Wen said.
There are actually not many fantasy movies.
However, there are only two successful ones. Not to mention the influential.
"It's just a try, and it's not like I can't afford to lose. Mu Chen said with a smile.
"If you lose, the impact will be great. Chen Mouzhi said.
He didn't want to admit it, but he had to admit that Mu Chen is now an iconic figure in Chinese films. They can't match these old guys.
Domino effect.
If Mu Chen pounces on a film, the impact will be far greater than that of them.
Even, if it is serious, I am afraid it will affect the international market of Chinese films.
"And the momentum, it's also a good thing. Zhang Gang said, "If you are like us old guys, if you are too cautious, it may not be a good thing." He's not old enough to be stable!"
Zhang Gang and others, there is one less film to film.
If any of the films are smashed, there may be a danger that the festival will not be guaranteed. But Muchen is now in the prime of life, and he has failed, so he will come next time. As Mu Chen himself said, he can't afford to lose.
Youth, is capital.
is based on the physical condition of ordinary people, Mu Chen can shoot for at least 20 years. What's more, Mu Chen's physical condition is much better than ordinary people.
Of course, Mu Chen may not be photographed old. But he is obviously still a long way from retirement.
"It feels like I'm going to smash it. Mu Chen said with a smile, "Actually, compared with the past, the international market foundation of this kind of film is much better." ”
Films such as "Sword Fairy" and "Martial God", in fact, put aside their "superhero" labels, and there is nothing wrong with saying that they are fantasy movies.
Under the influence of so many films, the market foundation of fantasy films at home and abroad is naturally not comparable to the past.
If it weren't for that, Mu Chen would not have taken a rash shot.
A lot of things need to be done gradually.
Just like the superhero movies in China, if they were filmed directly, would there be today's "grand occasion"?
"When you say that, how do I feel that you have started to lay out this fantasy movie a long time ago?" Chen Mouzhi said, "You started the superhero movie with "Iron Man", and brought out the Chinese superheroes with "The Avengers". Films such as "Sword Fairy", "Martial God", "Mage", and "God of War", in fact, there is nothing wrong with saying that they are fantasy movies. ”
"Using superhero movies as a gimmick to lay a good market foundation for fantasy movies. Chen Mouzhi looked at Mu Chen and said, "Step by step, interlocking." If I'm not mistaken, you're not going to make a fantasy movie, you're going to create a fantasy movie world?"
As soon as Chen Mouzhi's words came out, Zhang Gang and the others gasped, and then looked at Mu Chen with shock.
Before those superhero movies, Mu Chen's movies may have gone out of the door, but the international influence of Chinese films is very limited, and the market foundation is average.
But after those superhero movies became popular all over the world, the market for Chinese films abroad has obviously expanded a lot.
If this is the case, Mu Chen thinks a little far-reaching.
This thought, if you don't accept it, you can't do it!
Could it be that Mu Chen has been tossing for so long, and even created a superhero movie universe, just to lay a market foundation for his fantasy world?
Mu Chen was a little confused at this time, and when he heard Chen Mouzhi say this, he felt that he was simply bullish.
"Director Chen, you really dare to think about it!" Mu Chen shook his head and said, "I do have the idea of creating a fantasy movie world." Moreover, the new film is also considered. If it is successful, the corresponding plan will be implemented. However, Director Chen got the order wrong. ”
"The reason why I have the idea of creating a fantasy movie world is because of the success of the superhero movie world and the popularity of many superhero movies in China, which has laid a good market foundation for fantasy movies. Mu Chen shook his head and said, "According to Director Chen's statement, it seems that the superhero movie world is a foreshadowing for the fantasy movie world." I'm not that godly, and I can't think about it that deeply, so far. ”
Li Ruoxi looked at Zhang Gang and the others, and then couldn't help laughing.
She obviously saw that Zhang Gang and the others didn't believe Mu Chen's words at all.
I don't know if it's preconceived.
However, Mu Chen promoted Chinese superheroes to the world through a "Avengers", which had too great an impact and has always been talked about by people in the circle and regarded as a classic case.
Mu Chen naturally saw the disbelief on the faces of Zhang Gang and the others, and then didn't bother to explain.
Love how you want it!
Marin's wedding is over, and Mu Chen continues to be busy with the new film.
Not long after, "Covering the Sky" was launched.
As a new film after "Titanic", Mu Chen's new film has naturally attracted much attention.
What's more, after the Golden Dragon Award, the sporadic information revealed by this film has attracted the attention of countless people, and even heated discussions.
At the start-up press conference, a lot of domestic and foreign media came.
Mu Chen sat in the middle.
On the left, the male protagonist Li Yunyi and the supporting actor Zhou Liang, on the right are the newcomer Chen Si, who is about to be promoted by Dawn Film and Television.
There are also a number of important supporting characters, one of which is a Western face.
There is such a character in the original work, Mu Chen naturally did not delete it, and even this role is very important. If the first film is successful, this character will attract more Western faces in subsequent films.
There are also considerations for the Western market.
"Director Mu, this "Covering the Sky" tells the story of the other side of the starry sky, why is it a fantasy movie instead of a science fiction film?"
When it was the reporter's turn to ask a question, a reporter immediately raised the doubts in everyone's minds.
Mu Chen made a brief introduction to the film just now, and mentioning this made many people wonder.
"Because the way to get to the other side of the stars is fantasy, not science fiction. Mu Chen said with a smile, "What's more, who stipulates that the story about the starry sky is science fiction? Just like Chang'e running to the moon, do you say it is science fiction or fantasy?"
"Director Mu, is your film the story of Chang'e running to the moon?"
A reporter hurriedly asked.
"I'll just give you an example. Mu Chen shook his head and said, "This film has nothing to do with Chang'e running to the moon." ”
