Chapter 153: A Trip to Xiangjiang

The publicity of "Wolf Warrior" is getting stronger and stronger, wave after wave, endlessly.

But Mu Chen and his bodyguard Cheng Ting went to Xiangjiang.

Celebrities looking for bodyguards are not just from the perspective of safety. Mu Chen is extraordinary, but in the face of his enthusiastic fans, he is helpless.

There's a bodyguard with you, at least to keep those crazy fans at bay.

Mu Chen has it, and Mu Ze and others naturally have it.

However, Cheng Ting is not only Mu Chen's bodyguard, but also his assistant and driver.

Cheng Ting was born in special forces, and he is still a gossip heir.

As soon as he entered Dawn Film and Television, he was arranged by Chen Fuhai to Mu Chen.

Mu Chen is not used to bringing bodyguards, but this trip to Xiangjiang is prepared.

The security of Xiangjiang is naturally very different from the past, and there should be no danger. But it's also much more convenient to have someone by your side.

"Director Mu, this way!"

When Mu Chen walked out of the airport, he heard a person holding a sign and shouting loudly.

"You are?"

Mu Chen walked over and asked with a smile.

He didn't know the man. However, this question is asking who asked him to pick him up.

"Director Mu just calls me Ah Biao. The man smiled and said, "Brother Hua is in the car." ”

"Is Brother Hua here?" Mu Chen was a little surprised.

Liu Guohua came to pick up the plane in person, and he was still a little surprised.

As for why it was in the car, it was naturally better understood.

Liu Guohua is very popular in Hong Kong, and if he appears at the airport, it will inevitably cause riots.

"Let's go back to the hotel first, take a rest, and introduce you to some filmmakers in Hong Kong in the evening. Liu Guohua said with a smile, "What do you think of this arrangement?"

"Very good. Mu Chen smiled and said.

In addition to him, the director of this movie, most of them are Xiangjiang filmmakers.

This time, the shooting team is also mainly based on Xiangjiang.

Most of the personnel came out of Jinlai Film and Television.

Most of the people who came to Xiangjiang this time were newcomers who were not very experienced.

Mu Chen intends to use Xiangjiang's team to train his own employees.

The curtain of Xiangjiang movies has fallen, but no one can deny the excellence of Xiangjiang filmmakers.

Even if mainland filmmakers have sprung up in recent years, they have to admit this.

In the past few years, in a movie, not to mention the many Xiangjiang filmmakers behind the scenes, if there are no Xiangjiang stars in the cast, it will be difficult to continue.

In this way, it is inevitable to cause some contradictions.

However, when Mu Chen debuted, the arrogance of Xiangjiang filmmakers faded a little, and even the jobs of many behind-the-scenes staff were in jeopardy. This is also the reason why it was able to pull a wave of excellent Xiangjiang filmmakers at the beginning.

"Brother Hua seems to have something to say?"

Mu Chen saw that Liu Guohua wanted to speak and stopped, and asked with a smile.

"If someone says something unpleasant at night, please bear with me. Liu Guohua was silent for a moment, and then said.

When Mu Chen heard this, he was stunned for a moment, thoughtful.

"Does anyone have an opinion?" Mu Chen said with a smile.

Why did Liu Guohua give him a "preventive shot", how could Mu Chen not guess.

There are many well-known actors in Xiangjiang, and there are also many famous directors.

It is time for Xiangjiang films to have to change, this is the consensus of Xiangjiang filmmakers. But there are more excellent filmmakers in Xiangjiang, why find a young director from the mainland?

What can he do?

Mu Chen serves as the director, and it is naturally impossible for those who are not convinced.

Mu Chen's qualifications are still too shallow!

In the film industry, no matter how well you shoot a TV series, it's nothing.

In the film industry, you have to talk about movies.

What works does Mu Chen have?

A "Jingwu Hero", a "Wolf Warrior"!

"Wolf Warrior" has not yet been released, and it is difficult to say how it is.

"Jingwu Heroes" broke the highest record for kung fu films at the box office, and was also nominated for six Golden Dragon Awards and won the Best Action Design Award. But what is that?

Among the filmmakers in Xiangjiang, there are still fewer people who have won the Golden Dragon Award? There are even more people who have been nominated for the Golden Dragon Award.

For many Xiangjiang filmmakers, Mu Chen's achievements are not worth mentioning.

It is self-evident what this film means to Xiangjiang films.

Directed by Mu Chen, how does he convince the public?

Full support from Hong Kong filmmakers?

Liu Guohua said this, and they did it.

Full support, not all support.

However, those people may not be convinced, but Mu Chen feels that it should not be enough to speak ill of each other.

The hotel booked for Mu Chen is very good, and the "banquet" in the evening is also in the hotel.

Mu Chen doesn't know many Xiangjiang filmmakers, and I'm afraid there are only a few people such as Gao Hua who have cooperated.

However, Gao Hua is basically filming in the mainland now, and he spends much more time in the mainland than in Xiangjiang.

Cheng Jie is also one, but he returned from Hollywood and was mostly in Yanjing.

The film and television company he set up is in Yanjing, and his wife and son are also in Yanjing.

I'm afraid he will have less time to return to Xiangjiang.

Cheng Jieqi is a person, and no one regards him as a simple Xiangjiang filmmaker.

There are a lot of filmmakers here, but Mu Chen doesn't know anyone except Gu Wei and Yuan Hong.

Hong Kong filmmakers like to huddle, but they are not xenophobic.

Of course, it's not without xenophobic filmmakers.

This has nothing to do with Mu Chen, he didn't come to Xiangjiang to develop.

"Director Mu should have graduated from film school not long ago, right?"

Mu Chen looked over suspiciously.

He has a good memory, Gu Wei introduced it just now, and he recognized the other party at a glance.

Lin Dong, a veteran director in Xiangjiang, has made many classic Hong Kong films.

However, two blockbusters in a row lost money before, and the reputation was not very good, and now there is a trend of late festivals.

The evening is not guaranteed, this is what the Internet says to him.

Mu Chen felt a little exaggerated.

Lin Dong's two films with a bad reputation are actually not bad movies. It's just that fans' expectations are too high and they are a little disappointed.

"Yes!" Mu Chen nodded and said.

Everyone knows this, he can't deny it, and there is no need to deny it.

However, Lin Dong asked at this time, somewhat alluding to Mu Chen's lack of qualifications and experience.

He may have been setting the stage for what was to come.

"How many movies have you made?" Lin Dong then asked.

"One!" Mu Chen smiled and said.

Before, he may have guessed, but now Mu Chen can be sure.

This guy is finding fault.

"I have read the script of "Infernal Affairs", and if it is filmed well, it will be a Hong Kong film classic. But if you don't shoot it well......" Lin Dong looked at Mu Chen and said, "Director Mu really plans to direct this film himself?"

"Yes!" Mu Chen nodded, still speaking briefly.

"Director Mu, you also have investment in this film, Dawn Film and Television, right?" Lin Dong continued, "Why don't you find a director from Xiangjiang to direct it, that will undoubtedly be more secure." ”

Mu Chen looked at Lin Dong with a smile, but was silent.

"I don't question Director Mu's directing ability, I just think that Hong Kong films can only be directed by Hong Kong directors to make Hong Kong films. Lin Dong said.

"Is this what Director Lin meant, or what Mr. Gu meant?" asked Mu Chen with a smile.

Lin Dong is the contracted director of Jinlai Film and Television.

This film is jointly invested and filmed by Dawn Film and Television and Jinlai Film and Television, if Mu Chen does not direct, then Lin Dong may be the last person to direct.

He may want to use this movie to make a comeback.
