Although Jeff has brought some popularity to "Glass Heart", it just doesn't look so ugly, it is difficult to achieve substantial cooperation with overseas filmmakers with just a poster and a story, Tao Quduo is not Tsui Hark, Jiang Wen, He Mu is not Zhang Ziyi, the influence is slowly accumulated, and it cannot be achieved overnight, unless there is a good chance.

In a few days, He Mu watched a lot of movies in Cannes, the works of four Chinese directors, as well as his favorite Korean director Park Chan-wook's "Bat", and some mainstream Hollywood commercial films. Overall, the quality of this year's shortlisted works is not very strong, and the films of several Asian directors are generally not very high among critics, even Ang Lee's new works, which have already won the Berlin Golden Hero and the Venice Golden Lion, are not optimistic, and Cai Mingming's obscure "Face" is at the bottom of all the nominated films and has missed the award.

Since the possibility of winning the award is not very high, He Mu completed his work as an actor and producer, and simply returned to China to complete the filming of "Glass Heart", and many people who came with him also chose to leave when the film festival was not even halfway through, at this time Jeff and Sister Song Xuan had enough, the taste of Cannes is still not suitable for Lionsgate, only one or two films make him have the desire to fight, the style of European films and American films is too far apart, and it is only serious to focus on the Sundance Film Festival in the future, That's where American studios go.

After returning to China, Zhang Yibai has not come out yet, Xu Jinglei is still carving the script, "Durala" is just an entertainment topic for the time being, which has touched the hearts of countless people, but there is no substantive progress. It's just that after He Mu returned to China, he mentioned in an interview with the media that Shuimu Forest's next plan is "Durala's Promotion", which will be Shuimu's biggest film investment, and as a producer, he will take it seriously. and director Xu Jinglei to complete a pleasing movie.

"May I ask He Mu, don't you act in this movie yourself?"

"Well, I haven't thought about this, let's look at the schedule." He Mu replied perfunctorily.

Schedule? He Mu actually didn't take over the works after "Glass Heart", he was very idle, and the so-called schedule problem was not valid at all.

Although there are many film and television works invited to him, none of them have been accepted. Among them, TV series have the most invitations, and there are many excellent works, but He Mutie is determined to develop in the direction of movies. But there are only a few good works in China every year.,It's so easy to fall on him.,With his current identity, it's not suitable to play a supporting role.,So there are fewer books to choose from than before.。 If you want to make a good movie, you have to do it yourself.

It's just that now He Mu hasn't thought of a suitable subject yet. Shuimu Forest is now mainly small productions, and He Mu doesn't want to act in some works of average quality, it is actually very difficult to take into account the quality of the film and the small cost, even if he is as smart as he can't think of the right one for a while, he does have a lot of cards in his hand, but the story of Hao Lu also needs to be operated by a good director, just like the ingredients of Hao Lu do not have a good cook, then it will definitely not be able to make good dishes. It's better to freeze in the refrigerator and wait for a good director to make a delicious meal.

And He Mu has already starred in two movies this year. Coupled with the two TV series that will be broadcast at the beginning of the year and expected to be broadcast in the summer vacation, he doesn't have to worry about not having enough time this year, even if he doesn't do anything in the second half of the year, it makes sense, do some brand endorsements, it's easy to make money and fast, and he can take advantage of his leisure time to think more and feel more, there are too many good stories in China, whether it is the long history of 5,000 years or the changes of the times in today's society, there are many things worth writing about, not to mention that there are so many novels and literary works with divergent thinking on the Internet and offline, I heard that Feng Xiaogang's new film "Tangshan Earthquake" is adapted from a novel newly published not long ago, so I will always find a good story when I sink my heart.

It's like now, He Mu basically doesn't read comics, and Guoman hasn't read it at all, but I didn't expect to read a comic with Xiao Nan's strong recommendation, and I still like it very much.

This is a girl's comic serialized in a magazine, called "Zi Bu Yu", and He Mu has seen the fifth and sixth chapters. He Mu saw a lot of comic books of the four famous novels when he was a child, and he read them with relish, but when he got older, there were no good domestic comics, Hong Kong comics were not his favorite style, and Japanese comics were not the culture he liked, so he preferred words after that, and read a lot of literary works.

He Mu was disappointed in domestic comics before, and the reason why I was able to patiently read this girl's comic was mainly because of the name of the comic, Zi Buyu, Zi Buyu was strange and confused, which reminded He Mu of the great Qing Dynasty writer Yuan Mei's "Zi Bu Wen Collection", which is close to Pu Songling's "Liao Zhai Zhi Wei" style, and it is also about ghosts and strange stories, which He Mu likes very much, so he also became a little interested in this "Zi Bu Yu".

After reading it, I found that the cartoonist Xia Da's "Zi Bu Yu" and Yuan Mei's "Zi Bu Yu Collection" have similarities, and it is also about ghosts and ghosts, but the style is very fresh, with a little girl experiencing bizarre events in a small town as the main line, stringing together many characters and deeds in the non-Anthropocene world, with a unique style of painting and classical Chinese charm.

In order to understand this comic story, He Mu also deliberately found the first few issues of the magazine, and then he understood the process and development of the story, and later became a loyal reader of this series of comics, but at this time he didn't think about adapting it into a movie, after all, it involves ghosts, and it's still too sensitive, and the Film Censorship Bureau is not happy.

"Lao He," Tao Quduo called He Mu, "the last scene is the last." ”

In the past two months, "Glass Heart" is finally on the verge of completion, He Mu put down the comic magazine in his hand, and walked over quickly to complete the last shot of the movie.

"Click!" Tao Qu shouted the last word, and the movie was finally finished.

He Mu couldn't leave all the time to the crew because he had too many identities, so he was delayed a lot, but fortunately, the director was more considerate of him, and the heroine Zhang Yuqi was also very accommodating to him, when there was no male protagonist, she would do some commercial activities or take some magazine covers, and the star girl with a good figure was still very favored by the fashion industry, and finally, the film was filmed intermittently.

This is Zhang Yuqi's first time as a heavyweight female number one, in fact, He Mu is also the first time to assume the main responsibility for a movie, although he has been starring several times before, but "One Shot 147" has Wang Xueqi, who has outstanding acting skills, "Night. "Shop" has the best Xu Zheng of "Laughing Fruit", "Very Perfect" has the K-pop idol Su Ji-sub and the strong female one and two women, the aura of the male protagonist in the above films is not so shiny, only this time, he is the only male protagonist, there are almost no supporting actors, the heroine is not as plump as the male protagonist in terms of character design, and the director is a newcomer, this movie can really test He Mu's ability to resist the box office as a first-line popular idol, He Mu will wait and see.

The company's budget for Tao Quduo is 10 million, including the cost of shooting, post-production and publicity, the shooting has cost six million, and the income from advertising placement is also very Weibo, and the rest of the money is already very tight for post-production and publicity, so He Mu paid out of his own pocket to invite all the members of the crew to a banquet and ate a beautiful finale banquet.

As an actor He Mu is serious, as a boss He Mu is serious, and now He Mu is active and enthusiastic, cup after cup of respect for every staff member who has paid sweat and wisdom for the movie, relying on a thousand cups of not drunk physique, he poured everyone into a daze, and he continued to talk about the gains and losses of the film shooting after taking a sip to moisten his throat.

After the whole movie was filmed, He Mu had nothing to say about his performance, and he was very sure of Zhang Yuqi's performance, and the most gratifying thing was the change of Tao Fun. Directing a movie for the first time, and having no previous experience with a film crew, Tao Qu made a lot of mistakes before Yang Qing in "Night. Shop" made a mistake because of "Night. The filming cycle of "Shop" is too short, and some of Yang Qing's problems in directing have been with him, but Tao Quduo has made great progress, including mobilizing the emotions of the actors, choosing the angle and technique of shooting, setting off the atmosphere, etc., his progress is visible, and it can be clearly seen that the quality of the outdoor part in the second half is better than the indoor part in the first half, and he even claimed that if the two heroes and heroines are willing, he will want to reshoot the front again.

At this time, Zhang Yuqi will blush, there are too many bed scenes in front of her, she used to shoot without scruples when she was unfamiliar, but now she is so familiar, I don't know if Lu Dao will not dare to start, thinking of those beautiful shooting pictures, even if she is heroic, she can't help blushing and heartbeat, how could she be so bold in the first place.

After eating the finale banquet, everyone drank a little too much, He Mu tirelessly told everyone to take a taxi back, don't drive by yourself, of course, it is best for someone to pick up, before he has secretly called Zilin's phone, and then there will be a beautiful woman on the side of the road to greet him, "Handsome guy, do you want a ride?" ”。

Now that the filming is over, it's time to enjoy life next, and Mr. Zhang's health is fine, Zilin can come back to live, and the cohabitation life will continue from now on.

After seeing most of the people leave, there is not much left, He Mu and Xiao Nan, Zhang Yuqi and her agent, director Tao Quduo and assistant director Lin Qingyi, and several lighting engineers, among which the most sober is He Mu, the others are either supporting each other, or staggering and barely standing, so He Mu is responsible for sending everyone away to feel at ease.

At this moment, a white BMW drove over, He Mu thought it was Zilin, her new car was a BMW, but unfortunately not, this BMW seemed to be more luxurious than Zilin's, and a young man who was not too tall and a little handsome walked from the car, and he walked towards Zhang Yuqi in a daze with a ball of flowers...... (To be continued......)
