The combination of Chen Shu and Lu Yang, for Li Mo and Zong Shuai, is not even a qualified opponent at all.

Don't look at them, they seem to have been working hard in this circle for a longer time, but in the face of a combination of traverser + old fox in the entertainment industry, they are too far behind in terms of negotiation skills and personal experience.

Of course, the most important thing is that no matter from which point of view, the strength of Molong Media is destined to the final result.

After initialing the contract, Zong Shuai happily transferred the first part of the remuneration for the purchase of the script to Chen Shu's account, and the current situation of this young lady is really a little unbearable.

Although it is still a little difficult for her to complete a million-word book in six months, Chen Shu feels that her slow coding speed will become the biggest obstacle to completing this contract......

Not to mention how Chen Shu will exercise his hand speed when he goes back, at least Lu Yang will take office immediately.

His new position is the assistant director of "Happy Death Day".

Although in the original time and space, Lu Yang's directorial path stopped at "Embroidered Spring Knife???? Shura Battlefield", but it is undeniable that this guy is still a director who has studied in a professional director course and has actual experience in joining the group.

…… Even if he may not have an accurate grasp of the audience's tastes in the field of commercial films, in the crew of "Happy Death Day", he is not responsible for this aspect at all.

Because it deliberately kept a certain distance from several old media companies, Molong Media hardly got any help in terms of contacts and relationships in the circle.

So all Li Mo can do is to pick up the leaks pitifully.

Lu Yang is not sure about the tastes of commercial audiences?

Then just let him make a film and control the editing power.

Li Mo still doesn't believe it, can he go astray by controlling Lu Yang so much?

In order to thank the Modu Drama Academy for its help in the casting of "Langya Bang", and also to fulfill his promise, Li Mo has decided to put the filming location of "Happy Death Day" in Modu.

Anyway, there are no big scenes in the original movie, and it doesn't make much difference which city these elements are placed in......

After kicking Lu Yang to the magic capital in the name of exercise, which was actually squeezing, Li Mo still needed to confirm the release time of "Happy Death Day" with Zong Shuai before leaving the imperial capital.

On the issue of the release time of "Happy Death Day", Li Mo and Zong Shuai had a certain degree of disagreement.

The reason is very simple, because of Li Mo's one-year appointment with Ye Ning, Zong Shuai has now reached the point where he absolutely cannot tolerate any setbacks for Molong Media.

"Xiaomo, I still stick to my original opinion and block the screening time of "Happy Death Day" in October or November. ”

In the general manager's office of Molong Media, Zong Shuai looked at the notebook spread out in front of him, and persuaded him bitterly: ""Happy Death Day" is your first time really participating in the competition of summer files, I don't question your ability, but next to you is Sister Xiaolu's "Beijing Meets Seattle", you need to open a situation for her, after all, Sister Xiaolu is the first time to direct a commercial film......

Li Mo shook his head, thought about it for a while, and said, "No, I still think it should be in September." ”

"Happy Death Day" in the original time and space didn't know which tendon was wrong with the distributor, so it was actually released in the New Year.

There are so many taboo things in the Celestial Empire during the New Year, not to mention that the word 'death day' is clearly written in the name of the movie, even if something is broken during the New Year's dinner, the older generation will have to chant 'New Year's peace' several times before it is over, let alone go to the cinema to watch a movie with the word 'death day' in its name.

The final box office result was also disastrous, in the early 60 million......

I don't know if the issuer has recovered its costs......

Now that this movie is in Li Mo's hands, the production budget is only 40 million yuan, and even if the distribution costs are added, it is only 60 million yuan at most.

"But in September, there are now 36 movies squeezed in," Regarding the grasp and prediction of the film market, Zong Shuai thinks that he can't catch up with Li Mo, so he doesn't continue to insist on his opinion, "Let's step in again, it's difficult to have a good position." ”

"Of all the movies in September, which one was the most expensive?"

Li Mo naturally didn't have time to slowly understand what the situation of more than 30 movies was, so he simply asked about the one with the largest investment.

Flipping through the movie release schedule pasted on the notebook, Zong Shuai replied with a strange face: "It's HY Investment, Xu Ke's "Di Renjie's Divine Dragon King". ”

"Hehe, it's HY again," don't say that Zong Shuai's face was strange, even Li Mo felt that this world was really small when he heard the news, "It's better to be familiar than to be familiar, let's ...... in September."

"Huh?" The commander-in-chief didn't understand the meaning of the word, but it didn't sound like a good thing, "Xiaomo, you have to think clearly, after all, HY is still the industry boss, and the first part of Xu Ke's "Di Renjie" still has quality assurance, so let's just bump into it......"

"Brother Zong, don't worry, I'm not a fool, how can I hold a grudge because Wang Zhonglei did something to Yifei at the celebration banquet of "Chinese Partner" last time, and I have been holding a grudge until now......"

Zong Shuai directly sent a 'I believe you are a ghost, you are a bad old man's bad drip' look.

If you really don't remember, why do you have nothing to say the time and place so clearly?

I didn't expect your kid's heart to be so small......

It seems that it is better to stay away from you in the future.

Li Mo, who had calculated his advantages and disadvantages, how did he know that Zong Shuai could bring out so many inner activities when he was thinking in such a flash, so he explained directly.

"Brother Zong, think about it, since the success of "Painted Skin", have there been a lot of martial arts or magic-themed action movies on the market recently?

Hearing this, Zong Shuai's eyes lit up, "You mean to say that the market has become saturated with such movies, and the audience's acceptance and tolerance for such movies is constantly declining?"

"Yes, every type of film, after it reaches its peak, will always cause the market to weaken. Li Mo crossed his fingers and began to count, "Police and bandits, war, martial arts, comedy...... Of all the themes, none of them can escape this fate. ”

"What's more, the disadvantages of "Shendu Dragon King" are not only this, compared to the combination of Andy Lau in the first part, Liang Jiahui, Li Bing and Deng Chao, this time the actors of "Shendu Dragon King" directly came to a big change, Zhao Youzhu, Lin Gengxin and Yang Tianbao are more than one and a half stars worse than the first one in terms of acting skills and popularity appeal......;

"Eh, Brother Zong, why are you looking at me like this?" Just as Li Mo was about to continue to complain, he suddenly caught a glimpse of the expression on Zong Shuai's face becoming more and more strange.

"Xiaomo, this movie HY is still in post-production, it is estimated that even Wang Zhonglei doesn't know what the finished film will look like in the end, do you ...... How do you feel like you've seen the whole movie?"

Li Mo only realized at this time that he seemed to be quick to talk for a while, and poured out all the complaints after watching the movie in his previous life, so he could only quickly find a way to make up for it, "Uh...... The last time I met Brother Xiaoming, I heard what Yang Tianbao said. ”

"Forget it, listening to you say that, I feel a little more confident inexplicably. Zong Shuai clapped his hands and made a note in the notebook, "Then we decided to release "Happy Death Day" on September 6th, and you can control the filming time yourself." ”

"No problem, Brother Zong, filming will start in early May, and such a movie will definitely be completed in forty days at most. Even with post-production and editing, I'm sure I'll be able to deliver it by early August at the latest!"

The next day, when Molong Media announced the filming plan of "Happy Death Day", Li Mo had already taken a flight to the magic capital.
