Chapter 320: This is all in exchange for my endorsement!
found something to do for Tian Yining, and Lin Mu finally had time to go to other courtyards.
It's not that Lin Mu is tired, but this kind of thing always has to pay attention to a rain and dew evenly.
Fan Bing's reaction was very enthusiastic and full of wrapping, probably because he walked through the red carpet of the Oscars, so he also looked funny.
Not to mention Jiang Yiyan, after seeing Lin Mu's singing scene, he directly turned into a devouring demon, and almost swallowed Lin Musheng.
Lin Mu sacrificed hundreds of millions of elite soldiers to get out of the hands of the two.
As soon as he returned to the company, Master Liu came over.
"Boss, the location of the festival has been chosen."
Lin Mu yawned: "Where is it?" ”
"Chang'an."
"Chang'an? Okay, too. ”
Lin Mu nodded.
There are six cities with the strongest Chinese rock atmosphere, Yanjing, Chang'an, Xichuan, Youzhou, Northeast China, and Jiangxia.
Among them, Yanjing has the most talents, and Chang'an has bred many excellent musicians.
Of course, that is Lin Mu's world, in this world, although the rock atmosphere in these places is still strong, but for some reason there are no excellent rock talents.
It is reasonable to choose the location in Chang'an.
Lin Mu nodded, and was ready to let Master Liu go to Chang'an to arrange it on the spot.
The festival has already been decided, and as soon as the time comes, it will start directly.
On the other hand, the release of the movie is also coming as scheduled.
……
On the day of the movie's release, even if Lin Mu didn't want to publicize it, he had to follow Zhao Shan twice.
Before filming, Lin Mu told Zhao Shan that this movie doesn't care about the box office, what it wants is word-of-mouth and awards.
Zhao Shan naturally knows Lin Mu's intentions, the first thing in this movie is to help the audience wash away their impression of himself.
At the box office, with "The Grandmaster" as the foundation, the audience will not question their acting skills.
But the inherent impression must be slightly lightened, otherwise this will be harmful to Zhao Shan's future film development.
But even so, Zhao Shan was still a little worried.
After all, the box office is low, and it really doesn't look good, isn't it.
Lin Mu had no choice but to pat Zhao Shan's shoulder and comforted: "Brother, our movie is not a commercial film, and the box office is definitely not as important as word of mouth." ”
Zhao Shan nodded, and then asked, "Then when will we make another commercial film?" ”
Lin Mu was asked suddenly, good guy, why are you waiting for me here?
Some crying and laughing: "Brother, don't worry, it's only been a long time, I can't rest for a while, and how can the movie be so fast, I also need inspiration, don't I?" ”
"I believe others who say they need inspiration, you definitely don't need it, how much time have you spent on these scripts, and it's not like I haven't read them." Zhao Shan didn't believe it, he had seen Lin Mu write something, and it was written in a few minutes, and the script didn't take more than a week.
Now I don't have a book.,It's definitely because he's lazy.。
Lin Mu really can't explain it now, it's over, the genius is too stable.
But it stands well!
Lin Mu smiled: "Then you can't come if you have a book, you play the leading role as you, then you can only go up to other types of roles." ”
"It's enough to have your words." Zhao Shan also knows that his image cannot play the leading role in a commercial movie, it is not a matter of age, it is a matter of appearance.
But as long as there is a role, Zhao Shan does not pick.
The two were whispering, and the movie was officially released.
The theater darkened, and Zhao Shan hurriedly sat up straight, the tension on his face visible to the naked eye.
At this time, the boss of the Spring Festival Gala was like a primary school student waiting for the teacher to review his homework, and he was uneasy.
Lin Mu was very calm, he knew it in his heart.
This movie is definitely a good movie, but a good movie can't be linked to the box office.
The audience's aesthetic has not yet reached that level, and they know that this is a good movie, but at this time, the audience still has an idea, that is, film is an entertainment pastime.
They pay to go to the cinema to see great fights, beautiful special effects, and a brilliant story.
Instead of looking at some old and helpless reality.
But this can't be said that the audience is wrong, after all, today's Chinese people are not rich enough to spend money and time to go to the cinema to block themselves.
Therefore, the result of this movie is bound to be high reputation and low box office.
In fact, just as Lin Mu said, after the premiere, all the film critics in the audience stood up.
gave his own applause to this wonderful literary film.
They see a lot, and their needs for audio-visual are not very large, but their needs for the spiritual core are hungry.
"Falling Leaves Return to the Roots" falls right on their point.
Many film critics looked at the screen and their hands were red!
The excitement on his face is palpable!
It's not pretending, it's an outpouring of true feelings!
It was definitely the best movie they've seen in a while!
When Zhao Shan saw such a scene, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, glanced at Lin Mu, led his hand, and brought many main creators to the stage.
As soon as a few people stood still on the stage, the applause at the scene rang out again.
The flashing lights of the media in the audience also lit up unscrupulously at this time, almost blinding people's eyes.
There are more media this time than when Lin Mu's movie was released, after all, Zhao Shan has many friends, and everyone has to give Zhao Shan a face.
finally waited for the film critics to be quiet with the media, and Zhao Shan had to say a word.
"Don't move, don't move, you guys, I thought you were going to roast me?"
This sentence made the film critics laugh below.
Zhao Shan held the microphone, "Come on, is there any problem?" ”
"Mr. Zhao Shan, I want to know how you entered the role when you created the character, or what is your understanding of the role?"
The reporter began to ask questions.
This was followed by the normal media question-and-answer session.
Zhao Shan's answer was indeed a bit level, and even the actors of the entire crew were not the kind of desperately illiterate.
Maybe the diplomas of these old artists are not very high, but their culture is not low, and their emotional intelligence is even better.
Every answer is substantial, not meritorious, not arrogant, but not overly modest, and swiped a wave of goodwill in front of the media.
But when it was Lin Mu's turn, the scene was different.
A reporter looked at Lin Mu and said excitedly: "Director Lin, what was your original intention in making this movie?" As far as I know, all the movies you have made in the past have been commercial films, why did you choose the theme of rural Northeast China this time when you came into contact with literary films? ”
"Because of the box office." Lin Mu replied as a matter of course: "At present, the domestic box office potential has been almost squeezed by me, and it will be a bit impossible to make a big-budget movie." ”
Lin Mu's answer was so sincere that Zhao Shan almost didn't hold back, and the reporters at the scene also laughed.
Indeed, Lin Mu's previous movies were all frighteningly high at the box office, and his production speed was also surprisingly fast.
According to Lin Mu's filming speed, the domestic box office growth will definitely not be able to catch up with Lin Mu's growth rate.
So now that I have precipitated it, it is a good thing to make literary films that do not make money.
After that, Lin Mu's answer was more regular.
After all, the movie was produced by Zhao Shan, and it is not easy for him to dominate as a director.
Although Zhao Shan doesn't care about these, Lin Mu's movie was originally given to Zhao Shan, and it will definitely not work if he steals too much limelight.
But Lin Mu still underestimated his influence.
After the premiere, in addition to some reports about Zhao Shan's amazing acting skills, media reports were more about Lin Mu's news.
There is no way, who made Lin Mu's popularity high.
"Domestic movies, please hurry up and catch up with Lin Mu's footsteps!" 》
"What about the literary films made by commercial film directors? 》
"An unromantic road movie, but I burst into tears when I saw it, Lin Mu, what else can't you do? 》
"Falling Leaves Return to the Roots, a Milestone for Domestic Literary Films!" 》
These news appeared after the premiere ceremony of the movie, and netizens saw these news and realized that Lin Mu actually had a new film released?
Good guy, Lin Mu hid this movie too deeply!
didn't say it, there are Lin Mu's movies that must be watched!
What? Literary films?
Watch literary films too!
As a result, on the first day of release, the box office of "Falling Leaves Return to the Roots" came to an astonishing five million!
This result scared the theater to advance and increase the film schedule.
Don't look at the box office of 5 million is a bit low, you must know that the total investment of this movie is only 2 million!
Of course, this is because Zhao Shan and other actors are not paid, including Lin Mu, who does not get a director's salary.
But the investment in this film is really low, and it can be said that it has already started to make money on the first day of release.
At this time, comments from ordinary netizens began to appear on the Internet.
"It's good-looking, I didn't expect Mr. Zhao Shan's acting skills to be so good."
"Not only Mr. Zhao Shan, haven't you noticed that almost all of these movies are big-name artists!"
"It's very good-looking, I have to say that Lin Mu is still talented."
"It's a bit boring, it's not my thing."
"Normal, this movie is not a commercial film."
"Well, maybe not to my taste."
The comments of netizens are very real, good-looking is good-looking, praise what should be praised, and those who want to scold are all directed at Lin Mu.
This is also the reason why Lin Mu did not hype up this movie.
The audience of literary films is already small, if the audience is deceived into the theater for the box office, then it will not be this kind of scene at that time, and there will definitely be people who will scold Lin Mu for being a profiteer.
Now this tepid scene is also appropriate.
And Zhao Shan didn't know what to do when he saw the comments on the Internet.
You are either scolded or praised, what is this tepid?
Is this movie made or ruined?
Lin Mu looked at Zhao Shan's confused eyes and said with a smile: "Don't worry, brother, this movie is like this in China, but not necessarily abroad." ”
When Zhao Shan heard this, he immediately became excited: "What do you say abroad?" ”
"The foreign box office may not be high, but the awards are certain."
Lin Mu had said the same thing to Zhao Shan before, and saying it again at this time was just to calm Zhao Shan down, and there was no need to suffer from gains and losses.
Zhao Shan also knew that he was a little out of shape, but after all, this was his first movie as the protagonist, and it was understandable to be nervous.
invited the whole crew to have a meal, and Zhao Shan took the team to continue the roadshow.
And Lin Mu also returned to the company, waiting for the start of the music festival.
……
Night.
Lin Mu took Master Liu to the Lingmu Bar.
At this time, it was just night, and the door of the bar was crowded with customers from all over the world who came to check in.
Carefully bypassing the customers at the door, he entered the bar, and as soon as he entered, he heard the voice of Han Bing teaching.
The bar is where he teaches during the day, and at night it is naturally the place where these students practice.
At this time, a boy on the stage was singing Lin Mu's "I Am Angry".
The voice is okay, but I don't know if it's Master Liu's illusion, she always feels that compared to Lin Mu, this boy's singing is a little uninteresting.
Seeing Lin Mu coming in, Han Bing beckoned to Lin Mu, and several students quickly stood up and looked at Lin Mu excitedly.
These students have been at the bar for several days, but Lin Mu has never shown up.
If it weren't for Han Bing and a few people here, they would all think that Lin Mu was lying.
Now that Lin Mu has come over, this bar should be no problem!
"I'm practicing." Lin Mu nodded to the students: "How is it, Old Han, these students are all okay, right?" ”
Han Bing nodded: "It's okay, they all have a professional foundation, it's not difficult to learn, and there are some bands that haven't come to teach, they are ready to perform on stage at night, don't go, stay and give some advice." ”
"Okay."
Lin Mu said a few words to Han Bing, and then found a place to sit down.
The bar is currently purely losing money, after all, the salaries of Han Bing and several people must be paid, and these students not only do not pay, but also receive money.
sang in the bar, and the bar gave them a performance fee according to the market price, as for the tuition fee or anything, Lin Mu didn't mention it, and Ning Tao didn't decide.
But when these people get up in the future, the entire rock circle is Lin Mu's people, and this money is not a loss!
Just thinking about it, Lin Mu suddenly felt a little strange. Turning his head around, he asked, "What about Jiang Shu?" Don't have to train today? ”
Master Liu replied honestly: "They went to sign a contract." ”
"Signing? What is the contract? Lin Mu's expression at this time was called confused, he didn't remember that he had a task for Jiang Shu!
Master Liu said: "YY Company sent someone over and wanted to ask Jiang Shu and them to be spokespersons. ”
"I ......"
Lin Mu was about to speak, and Jiang Shu and the others walked in through the back door.
As soon as they saw Lin Mu, several girls ran to Lin Mu with a chatter, and Xiao Zhen rushed over and gave Lin Mu a facial cleanser.
It's a pity that the milk taste is too weak, and Lin Mu almost didn't die.
Lin Mu pushed Xiao Zhen away with a little disgust and rubbed his nose: "Signed?" ”
The tone is a little sour, after all, he is the protagonist of the live broadcast, but YY has only signed a few contracts with Jiang Shu.
It's not Lin Muyu's endorsement, but it's unreasonable!
Why is his popularity so high, YY still hasn't signed him!?
"Thank you, boss." x4。
Jiang Shu and the others bowed to Lin Muyi.
Lin Mu waved his hand angrily: "Okay, okay, just have an endorsement, sing well in the future, don't go to YY live broadcast when the time comes, I was asked." ”
Lin Mu was about to start preaching, Xiao Zhen and Sun Junli glanced at each other, and sat beside Lin Mu on the left and right.
Holding Lin Mu's arm, Lin Mu was speechless for a moment.
Xiao Zhen panicked, Sun Junli didn't, her arm fell into it in one fell swoop, and she almost softened Lin Mu.
Lin Mu's body fell uncontrollably in the direction of Sun Junli, and he still had time to pull out his other arm from Xiao Zhen's arms.
was so angry that Xiao Zhen almost rushed forward to bite Lin Mu.
The surrounding women watched this scene and laughed one after another.
And Lin Mu also enjoyed the atmosphere at this time with peace of mind.
This is all in exchange for my endorsement!
