In the opinion of Tencent Video, if you sell iQiyi a solo drama, it will cost 90 million, and if you sell it, it will take the initiative to drop it to 60 million, is this looking down on my big penguin? Or will the quality of our new drama be significantly inferior to others? How's that going to work? Is my big penguin a mere 30 million short?

Li Mu had no choice but to explain to the other party, saying that "The Promotion of the Crown Princess" has a total of 36 episodes, and for this drama prepared for your company, we plan to make 20 episodes to try first, and the other party nodded in approval.

……

In late September, "Fast Pursuit" has entered the end of the entire release cycle, at this time its domestic box office has accumulated 680 million, overseas box office has accumulated 140 million US dollars, at this time the film's box office growth rate has been very slow, it seems that its final global box office may not be able to break through the $260 million mark.

During the release of the film, Wu Jing received calls from two kung fu superstars, Li Lianjie and Cheng Long. Li Lianlian deliberately dialed Wu Jing on the phone, saying that "Rapid Pursuit" is very successful, but the more successful it is, the more low-key it must be as low-key as possible, and also said that Wu Jing's conditions are very good, but there are many people with good conditions across the country, how many people can really be popular?

In the end, he told him bitterly, saying that the key to your success is not actually more in yourself, but that you happen to belong to the same camp as Li Mu.

In the end, he said very bluntly: "Remember, Huashang is the key to how much you can achieve in the future, don't be carried away by temporary achievements." ”

Li Lianlian's words must be for Wu Jing's good, but this kind of words are actually not popular, but fortunately, Wu Jing listened.

He has been in the Hong Kong circle for so many years, what has he gotten? He has only been involved in Huashang Media for less than a year, what has he gotten?

Mr. Li once told him that the creativity he prepared for the "Fast Pursuit" series alone was enough to shoot six films.

I don't know if Li always talks casually or is it true, if it is true, if the six films can still have the results of "Fast Pursuit 1", then with this series of masterpieces, even if he is still far inferior to Brother Cheng Long and Senior Brother Li Lian, then he is an international martial arts superstar, right?

Besides, in addition to this series, Li Zongxin provided him with "Wolf Warrior" is also very good, he has read the script carefully several times, and he really likes it.

What Senior Brother Li Lian said is actually right, Mr. Li is his biggest reliance on realizing his kung fu movie dream.

Compared with Li Lianlian's heart-to-heart and lungs, what Brother Cheng Long said is relatively simple, in the mouth of Brother Cheng Long, "Fast Pursuit" is a very good kung fu movie, and he sincerely congratulates Wu Jing on the success of his new film.

In addition, there are a lot of insiders who send him congratulatory text messages, including many people who he asked the other party to give him a chance.

In just a few months, the treatment has made a world of difference.

In a later interview with reporters, a reporter asked him that "Fast Pursuit 1" has been a success, so when will the sequel "Fast Pursuit 2" be filmed? Or is there any "Rush 2"?

These are also the issues that many ordinary viewers are most concerned about, although the plot of "Fast Pursuit" is a little weaker, but it has far advantages over other similar films in other aspects, such as action, violence, and decisiveness.

There may be a lot of people who don't like the genre, but there are also a lot of people who like the movie very, very much.

Because this film is almost the ceiling of this type of film in many ways.

Regarding this question, Wu Jing only thought for a moment, and then replied: "There should be a second part, because Mr. Li told me that he had already thought about the plot of the first five parts of this series." ”

"Five?" The reporter was very surprised, although he didn't know whether what Wu Jing said was true or false, but he still complimented, "Five films with a box office of 250 million US dollars, the total box office will reach 1.25 billion US dollars, congratulations, Wu Jing, I think when all five movies are released, you must have made a big career in Hollywood." ”

Wu Jing couldn't help but remind reporters: "Actually, Mr. Li told me that the "Fast Pursuit" series will get better and better, and the box office results will get higher and higher!" ”

……

"Five, $1.25 billion, higher and higher."

Zhen Bullet couldn't help but fall into deep thought when he looked at the relevant reports.

Series movies will encounter the problem of getting more and more difficult to shoot, and the same is true of his "Ip Man" series, "Ip Man 1" has a big box office reputation, and by "Ip Man 2", the box office is still a big hit, but the word of mouth has dropped slightly.

It's not the most terrible thing that word of mouth has dropped a little, the most terrible thing is that he knows that "Ip Man 3" will be useless in a short time, because he can't write a good script.

But even if there are only two "Ip Man", he has already become famous and the box office has soared, and even surpassed the box office of Andy Lau for a time.

But now Wu Jing said that Li Mu has prepared the scripts of the first five parts for his "Fast Pursuit", and the overseas results of "Fast Pursuit" have already crushed the "Ip Man" series, if the number of parts far exceeds "Ip Man"?

Zhen Bullet shook it, and suddenly his heart burst into crisis.

……

Hotel.

Li Mu sat on the sofa, Liu Yifei kept walking around in front of him, only to see that at this time she was only wearing a white T-shirt on her upper body, the T-shirt didn't look very fit, it was a bit big, but it just covered the spring light.

The T-shirt is Li Mu's, and I don't know why she always likes to wear Li Mu's clothes.

Li Mu half-squinted his eyes and looked at the people who kept dangling in front of him, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart: "I remember when I first lived together, even three or four times a day was not enough, it was really rare to have a chance, I didn't expect that after a few years, the person was still the same person before, and he was still as beautiful as before, but he didn't have the interest he had before, just like now, in the face of this situation, there was no wave in his heart, if it was a few years ago, he would have been very happy." ”

"What do you want?"

Liu suddenly stood in front of Li Mu and asked.

Li Mu opened his mouth and said, "Think about it again, how can there be such a beautiful person in this world?" Eight times a day is not enough. ”

"Don't brag, you will sleep like a dead pig three times."

"You don't take rare as 'that', do you? True color! ”

"You're talented!" Liu came up to wrestle with Li Mu, but Li Mu pressed him on the sofa and didn't move when Li Mu used a little force. This made her pill on Li Mu's leg and said, "Didn't you say some time ago that you were going to shoot "Palace 2"? Has the heroine been decided? ”

Li Mu played with her hair with his hand and said, "What, you want to recommend a heroine candidate for me?" ”

"Hmm!"

Liu Yifei blushed a little, she generally never interferes in the specific work of Huashang, especially the casting of the company, she only strives for some interesting roles for herself at most.

In fact, she didn't really want to interfere in the casting of "Palace 2" this time, but I heard that Yang Mi had asked Li Mu to recommend the heroine of "Palace 2", if "Palace 2" is still starring Yang Mi, it will be okay, 1 is played by her, and 2 There is no problem with letting her play, but it is different if she recommends Yuan Shanshan to play.

Huashang Media's casting work, she is not the boss lady of Huashang, why should she intervene in everything?

Well, in fact, the last time she was making out with Li Mu, Yang Mi suddenly sent a WeChat message, which made her feel very unhappy, especially when she asked Li Mu to stop replying first, and he really copied it.

Therefore, she, the "boss lady", has not interfered in the casting, why should she, an outsider, interfere?

So who will Liu Yifei want to recommend?

"Oh? Tell me about it, and I'll see who is so favored by my good daughter-in-law. ”

"Then I can say, don't blame me if it's not suitable."

"Not suitable? No way, what my daughter-in-law said must be right! Later, you will recommend a pig to me, and I will arrange for it to be the heroine. ”

Liu Yifei couldn't help but glance at him and said: "you, you are a pig, you are a big beauty, you are also familiar with this person, it is Song Yi who played Fan Xian's sister Fan Ruoruo in "Celebrating More Than Years". ”

Li Mu smiled: "Who should I be, it turned out to be her!" Well, it's really good, then this matter is decided, for my wife's sake, as long as she is willing to play, we will give her the role. ”

"Really? Don't think about it anymore? What if it's not suitable? ”

"It's not inappropriate, my wife's orders must be followed!"

Not to mention, Liu Yifei's candidate is really quite appetizing to Li Mu, otherwise, Li Mu would be another rhetoric.

Liu Yifei and Song Yi were in the same crew of "Celebrating More Than Years", how good is the relationship between the two? In fact, it is not to the level of a particularly good "girlfriend", but after all, they have worked together, and they are still a little better than others.

I don't know what's wrong this time, I heard that Yang Mi specifically asked Li Mu to recommend casting candidates, so she inexplicably thought that the other party sent Li Mu a WeChat message when she was intimate that day, so she also wanted to recommend a personal choice-for-tat.

In fact, in the final analysis, Li Mu's delay in proposing marriage made her a little insecure.

Fortunately, Li Mu agreed to her in one bite, making her feel that she was actually the most important in Li Mu's heart.

"By the way, what is Shu Sing busy with now?" Li Mu suddenly asked again.

Liu Yifei said: "It doesn't seem to be very busy, what's wrong?" ”

Li Mu smiled: "Isn't she also your best friend?" Just arrange her into the crew of "Palace 2", what do you think? ”

"Huh? Is it appropriate? ”

"Yes, your best friend, it must be suitable."

Liu Yifei suddenly felt a little guilty, she didn't expect Shu Sing just now, but Li Mu remembered that she had such a good friend.

……

A few days later.

The crew of "To Youth".

Yang Mi finally heard the rumors, saying that the company was finally going to start the "Palace 2" project, and as the heroine of "Palace 1", she still had a certain say in "Palace 2", which is why she took the initiative to find Li Mu to recommend her best friend Yuan Shanshan.

In fact, there is no problem with Li Mu refusing her proposal, because she is becoming popular because of "Palace 1", after all, she is only an actor, and Li Mu is really capital, and she is still very awesome.

But why Song Yi?

"Did she recommend it?"

A very beautiful beauty suddenly appeared in Yang Mi's mind, of course it was Liu Yifei! Then she thought, "She didn't mean to target me, did she?" ”

"Target, target! The more she targets me, the more it shows that she has a sense of crisis, and the more it shows that my wife is attractive enough! ”

Thinking like this, there is an inexplicable pride in my heart.

Immediately afterwards, during the filming, she unexpectedly heard two obscene-looking male group actors telling jokes.

"I'll tell you about one too, this one I read from Reader's Digest when I was in school, and it's super funny."

"Well, you say!"

"It's about a couple who had a married life and discussed a code word called: 'Laundry'. One night, the man came and said, 'I want to do the laundry!' ’。 And the woman's uninterested said: 'The washing machine is broken!' ’……”

"Laundry?" Yang Mi was stunned when she heard this.

Somehow, she suddenly thought of the day when the global box office of "Shark Beach" broke $300 million, and she couldn't help but send Li Mu a WeChat message. Remember that Li Mu just said that he was doing laundry at that time?

"Wouldn't it? What was he doing at the time? The WeChat she sent won't also be seen by her, right? ”

"Definitely! Most of the time "Palace 2" used Song Yi was her idea. ”

"Humph! It's a shame that he's still a big man, and he still has to listen to a woman blowing the wind on the pillow at work, which is really useless! ”

"He's not going to be the one who is going back to me, is he?"

Yang Mi was thinking nonsense, and the two group performers who told refrigerator jokes not far away finally saw Yang Mi, only to see the three of them looking at each other with six eyes, and then the two group performers couldn't help but chuckle in their hearts.

"The colorful joke that the two of us just told won't let Yang Mi listen, right? It's — it's really exciting! ”

Originally, the first instinctive reaction in my heart was embarrassment, but when I thought about it, I felt an inexplicable stimulus?

In addition, at the end of September, there is another very important thing, that is, another important film of Huashang Media, "The Richest Man in Xihong City", will finally be officially launched.

In fact, at the stage of designing the plot, Li Mu once thought about replacing Wang Lihong's role with Andy Lau, but after thinking about it, he still forgot it.

In the film, Liu Jiannan has always called himself Little Wang Lihong, and in the end, Wang Duoyu actually invited the real Wang Lihong, which is a more important humor point, which must be retained, and in order to make this joke sound, it is also very important that Liu Jiannan's actor is really a little similar to Wang Lihong.

In Li Mu's opinion, Chang Yuan is really a bit like Wang Lihong.

rashly changing the role of a singer to Andy Lau or Zhang Xueyou may add to the picture.

……

Time soon came to the National Day again, and on this day, Huashang Media's film "Huaxia Partner" officially met with audiences across the country.

On the day of the premiere, Li Mu and Liu Yifei did not rush to the scene to cheer in person, and the two were on vacation in Amsterdam at the time.

According to Li Mu's arrangement, the scene in Amsterdam was left for filming at the end, and after the filming, the crew returned to China in advance, while Li Mu and Liu Yifei took the opportunity to have a good time and spend a vacation.

And in the country.

This year's National Day file "Huaxia Partner" actually has no too strong opponents.

"Tai Chi 1 Starting from Scratch" has a very poor reputation, and the film has been released for 5 days, and the current daily box office is about 16 million.

"Second Exposure" has been in theaters for three days, with a daily box office of about 10 million.

and "Tongque Terrace", which was released for six days and had a daily box office of more than 9 million.

In fact, these are the only competitors, and it is difficult to say how much of a threat these films can pose to "Huaxia Partners".

In the end, "Huaxia Partner" achieved a total of 61 million box office on the first day of release.

The results are good, but they are not amazing.

The next day, the film's word-of-mouth began to accumulate, and finally won 108 million yuan at the box office in one fell swoop.

The box office exceeded 100 million the next day, and the Douban score was as high as 7.8 points.

This is obviously an example of a double harvest at the box office, and for a while the entire crew began to rejoice.

On the third day, the film's word-of-mouth continued to ferment, and its single-day box office directly broke through the 120 million yuan mark, reaching 125 million yuan.

"Huaxia Partner" is undoubtedly one of the best works produced by Huashang at the mainland box office in recent times.
