In recent days, in the film and television circle of the imperial capital, there are two news that have become the focus of attention of all parties.

Li Mo, the director of "Master of Hypnosis", is preparing a new film work.

Li Mo's new work will be a realistic work about inspiration and growth.

If Li Mo's attitude of starting the preparation of his next film before his first film is released is admirable, then the type of film he chose is a little confusing.

Whether it's in Hollywood or the Celestial Empire, in general, continuing to expand in an already successful field is the most beneficial option for directors.

After all, most directors have their own inherent habits, such as Spielberg is good at entertaining at the same time, both highly artistic, and his works are full of humanistic care, James Cameron often explores the relationship between people and technology in his works, George Lucas constructs a huge world view of "Star Wars" is amazing, and Martin Scorsese has always used his own unique perspective to calmly dissect the various stubborn diseases of society and human beings with movies.

According to the opinion of most people in the industry, since Li Mo has won the first battle in the field of thriller themes, it may not be impossible to continue to work hard and become the Celestial Empire's version of Wen Ziren.

After all, he is only twenty-two years old, and there are still infinite possibilities.

In the end, he was fine, and quietly made such a thing......

Li Mo's behavior made many film and television companies that were originally optimistic about him and planned to seek cooperation opportunities temporarily stop and plan to continue to wait and see the follow-up development.

……

There are those who plan to wait, and there are naturally those who plan to seize the opportunity.

In the chairman's office of China Film Group, Han Shanping looked at a project plan in his hand while listening to his subordinates introduce the relevant situation of the project.

After a while, Han Shanping finished reading the plan in his hand, and asked a little puzzled: "Old man, the project of "Chinese Partner", I remember that Xu Xiaoping once wrote a script before, but then there was no news, how did the screenwriter's name become Li Mo in the script handed over this time?"

Sitting opposite was a middle-aged man in his forties, who was also one of the deputy general managers of China Film Group, and after a little bit of thought, he opened his mouth to explain the whole story, "Mr. Han, the script written by Xu Xiaoping last time was later handed over to a director named Chen Kexin in Xiangjiang, but he was not satisfied with the script, so Xiangjiang began to rewrite the script. ”

"So, this Li Mo is a screenwriter on the other side of Xiangjiang?"

"Uh, no. The screenwriting team of director Chen Kexin's team wrote several versions of the script, but none of them were satisfactory to Director Chen, so he had already notified us before the Spring Festival that he had officially given up the project of "Chinese Partner". ”

"So that's the case," Han Shanping finally understood the whole story when he heard this, "So that means that this script, except for the same name, is actually a completely different project?"

"Yes, after we received this script, we thought it roughly objectively reflected the story of three young people who met and met when they were students, co-founded an English training school, and finally realized the "Celestial Dream", and the overall look is still very inspirational and positive. ”

Han Shanping also watched the introduction of the plot of this movie just now, and also knew that although the deputy general manager's words had a certain tendency, they were still a statement from an objective standpoint.

Han Shanping has been the chairman of China Film Group for 5 years.

As he gets older, Han Shanping's attitude towards movies has gradually changed from the original director's perspective to the perspective of the chairman of China Film Group.

For him now, the box office of the movie is not a big deal, word of mouth is the key.

Speaking of word-of-mouth, China Film Investment's "Red Cliff", "Dream of New Red Mansions", and "New Shaolin Temple" really can't hold back a mouthful of old blood.

But since his subordinates can speak in this tone, I think it should be a reliable project.

Thinking of this, Han Shanping made a decision: "Old man, you continue to follow up on this project. We can invest less than 10 million yuan, and the income can be shared proportionally. ”

"Understood, Mr. Han, we audited the crew and sent people to station according to the regulations. ”

……

Optical Fiber Media Imperial Capital Headquarters, Wang Changtian's Office.

Recently, Wang Changtian's mood can be described as ups and downs, if it weren't for the box office trend of "Hypnosis Master" being strong enough, his mood would probably go all the way down.

Since December last year, Optical Fiber Media has produced and distributed a number of films, except for "Hongmen Banquet", which successfully exceeded 100 million, whether it is "Speed Angel" blessed by Tang Wei, Liu Ruoying, Zhang Baizhi, or "Piff" starring Wang Xiaoming, the final box office has not exceeded 30 million.

For a while, in Wang Changtian's eyes, whether it was a treasure island actress or a mainland male god, they were all so hateful.

…… There is nothing surprising about it, in the eyes of businessmen, if they can't bring benefits to themselves, no matter how glamorous and dazzling that skin is, it is a worthless product.

But today seems to be Wang Changtian's lucky day.

Because she had just started work early in the morning, Li Xiaoping, the vice president in charge of daily operations, handed in a project plan and script.

Looking at the director in the crew list, Li Mo's name was written in the screenwriter column, Wang Changtian subconsciously felt that this book should be considered reliable.

Read on, the project name: "Chinese Partner"?

It's not like a thriller.

Let's take a look at the list of scheduled actors......

Wang Xiaoming?

Deng Chao?

Wang Kai?

Wang Changtian looked at Li Xiaoping differently, are you sure this is not HY's project plan, and you got it wrong temporarily?

Li Xiaoping looked at Wang Changtian helplessly, "Mr. Wang, this was personally sent by Zong Shuai early in the morning, and it is impossible for me to take the wrong one." You read that right, the scheduled actors of this "Chinese Partner" are indeed the two of HY. ”

"What the hell is Li Mo planning to do?" Wang Changtian was a little angry, "Could it be that he cooperated with HY so soon?"

"It shouldn't be," Li Xiaoping was more rational at this time, "The Wang brothers of HY did meet with Li Mo a few days ago, but judging from their next actions, the two sides should not have reached an intention to cooperate." ”

"Really?" Wang Changtian was still a little unconvinced.

"You don't know what the character of the Wang brothers of HY is? If they win over Li Mo, how can there be any reason to hide it. ”

"That's just as well. Wang Changtian nodded, he also knew that the Wang brothers were not forbearant people.

"So, Mr. Wang, will we continue to cooperate with Li Mo's studio this time?"

"Who else has received a proposal for this project besides us?"

Li Xiaoping thought about it, although she felt that the news from Zhongying was a bit incredible, but she still decided to tell the truth.

"Mr. Han of China Film is said to have read this plan, and it is said that he has already felt invested. ”

"Then let's vote too, since we have already believed in Li Mo once, we will continue to choose to bet on him this time, not to mention that according to this plan, isn't the heaviest investment still made by Li Mo's studio itself?"

Wang Changtian made the final decision.
