Chapter 220 Mu Chen's Least Favorite Work
How to do it?
Mu Chen talked for a long time, but he didn't have a substantive answer. He mentioned the movie "Tang Bohu Spots the Autumn Fragrance" several times.

how so?

The reporters naturally knew that Mu Chen was advertising the movie that was released.

They wanted to ask Mu Chen: Is it really okay for you to be so "brazen"?
The box office of "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" went straight to 30 billion. Are you still not satisfied with the box office?

"Director Mu, which of the two films "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" do you like best?"

a reporter asked.

Don't you like to mention "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance"?

Now it's up to you how to answer.

Although, when he asked this question, he already guessed how Mu Chen would answer.

It's nothing more than "like all".

This is Mu Chen's usual routine when facing the problem of making a decision.

What he wanted was Mu Chen's answer.

If he didn't answer that way, how could the next question push Mu Chen into a corner?

""Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance"!" Mu Chen replied very simply.

"what!"

Everyone present was stunned.

None of them expected Mu Chen to answer like this.

The reporter who was going to "bury the thunder" on Mu Chen was even more confused.

This is out of routine!

"'Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon' is the film I've put the most heart into so far, but it's also the one I dislike the most." Mu Chen continued.

Everyone: .
Is Mu Chen pretending?

This girl must be pretending!Fifteen nominations for the Golden Dragon Award and ten nominations for the Oscars. If you participate in other awards, I am afraid there will be no fewer nominations.

However, Mu Chen actually said that he didn't like it the most?
You don't like it the least, but you still take it with the most heart?Filmed also got such an amazing nomination.

You are a liar!

"Then Mu Chen, which work do you like most?"

A reporter asked quickly.

""Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance"!"

Mu Chen also answered this question very simply.

Everyone: .
Will you die if you don't advertise?

"Why? Why isn't "Wolf Warrior 2", which created a box office miracle, your favorite work?"

The reporter was not reconciled, and then asked.

"Wolf Warrior 2" has undoubtedly the most fans among Mu Chen's works.

So many people subconsciously think that Mu Chen likes this movie the most.

"Because I starred in this movie!" Mu Chen said with a smile, "Of course, the most important reason is because this movie is still in theaters."

I go!

The reason why you like this is too straightforward!
It seems that there is still some shamelessness.

"Why do you dislike "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" the most among Director Mu's works?" A reporter asked, "You don't like "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" before it's released. How can you make fans like it? You say so Aren't you afraid of affecting the film's box office?"

""Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" is my favorite, but there are still so many people who don't like it!" Mu Chen said, "I don't like "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" the least, so those people must like it."

I like your sister!You don't like it anymore, how could those people like it.They'll just dislike it even more.

Also, why is it "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" again, you are endless!

Well, not right!

Is Mu Chen satirizing those who criticize "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance"?

Or is it implying that after the release of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", there will be people hacking?
"How many Golden Dragon Awards and Oscars does Director Mu have the confidence to win? As the first Chinese director nominated for the Oscar for Best Director, are you confident to win the Golden Dragon Award for Best Director this time?"

The reporter no longer struggled with the previous question, and continued to ask.

"Those who are familiar with me know: I never give you a chance to slap your face." Mu Chen said, "Don't ask me if I have confidence, it has nothing to do with my confidence whether I can win an award or not!"

"When will "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" meet fans?"

"The end of March or the beginning of April." Mu Chen said, "The specific release date will be announced soon."

"Does Director Mu have confidence in the box office of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon"?"

"This question refers to the answer to the previous question." Mu Chen smiled.

Everyone understands it in seconds.

This is an opportunity not to be slapped in the face!

Do you want to be so cautious!Didn't it mean that people are not frivolous and waste youth?

Isn't Mu Chen only in his 20s now?
Answering questions like this is worse than those seventy-eighty old directors?
Those old directors, who mentioned that their own works are not full of confidence, as if Lao Tzu's works are the best in the world.

Even if you get slapped in the face every time, it's the same as before.

Um?Mu Chen is only in his 20s!
"Director Mu, what do you think of being the youngest nominee for Best Director in Oscar history?"

Thinking of this, a reporter randomly asked.

"I didn't say how I feel about it. I'm still the youngest person nominated for best director in the history of the Golden Dragon Awards? Haven't I been in soy sauce for several years?" Mu Chen said with a curled lip, "One nomination doesn't explain anything."

Although he was nominated for an Oscar for best director, Mu Chen didn't think he would win the award.

In fact, Mu Chen didn't pay much attention to awards.

At least to choose between box office and awards, Mu Chen will definitely choose the former.

It is true that he made "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" for awards, but the main purpose is to gain international fame and take the first step towards the international stage through Oscar nominations.

Perhaps what Mu Chen is most concerned about now is not how many awards the film will win, but how the box office will be.

Of course, it would be even better if he could win an award.

An impromptu press conference lasted for two or three hours.

"Do you need to celebrate?" Chen Fuhai said to Mu Chen with a smile.

A "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" made Mu Chen go international, and it was also the beginning of Chenxi Film and Television's going international.

At this time, many filmmakers from Europe, America and other places have already come to the door.

"Forget it, after the celebration, if you don't win the prize, it will be a bit embarrassing. After you win the prize, it's not too late to celebrate." Mu Chen shook his head and said.

"Being nominated is worth celebrating," Chen Fuhai said.

"Then celebrate." Mu Chen said.

This kind of celebration is also a kind of cohesion for the people of the company.

The more awesome the company is, the more honor the employees have, and naturally the more they have a sense of belonging.

What's more, the treatment provided by Chenxi Film and Television has always been good, and let the employees see the development scene, and the sense of belonging will naturally increase.

Celebrations are just internal company celebrations.

However, many people from the industry also came to join in. Huarui Film and Television has always had a good relationship with Chenxi Film and Television, so naturally many people came.

In addition, Chen Mouzhi also came.

His last movie was a collaboration with Guangzheng Films, but he is not a contracted director of Guangzheng Films.

A big director like Chen Mouzhi, who has been famous for many years, either has shares in a film and television company or has his own film studio.

Zhang Gang has a large share in his company, while Chen Mouzhi has his own film studio.

Chen Mouzhi looked at Mu Chen with complicated eyes.

He remembered the first time he met Mu Chen.At that time, Mu Chen was still a college student about to graduate, busy with his first work, visited Li Ruoxi, but had a conflict with Wu Fan.

In just a few years, his films have received ten Oscar nominations, and he has achieved something that many Chinese filmmakers have failed to do.

The younger generation is terrible, terrible.

When Chen Mouzhi came here, his support was just a matter of incident, the real purpose was to find out what Mu Chen said.

He has a good relationship with Zhang Gang. Although he has only heard some sporadic news about Zhang Gang and Mu Chen's new film, he can see Zhang Gang's confidence in this film.

This confidence is definitely not for propaganda, but from the heart.After all, there is no need for Zhang Gang to be like this in front of them.

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" made Chen Mouzhi see Mu Chen's ability to control the international market.

"Director Chen seems to have something to say to me?"

Mu Chen saw that Chen Mouzhi hesitated to speak several times, so he asked with a smile.

"I heard that the "Jurassic Park" you collaborated with Lao Zhang is about to wrap up?" Chen Mouzhi said.

"is it?"

Mu Chen smiled awkwardly. As the producer of "Jurassic Park", Mu Chen didn't seem to have even been to the crew. He really didn't know if it was going to wrap up.

"When will we cooperate?" Chen Mouzhi looked at Mu Chen and smiled.

As a great director, he undoubtedly likes a producer like Mu Chen very much.

It seems irresponsible, but it actually reveals a kind of trust.

A director like Chen Mouzhi probably wouldn't like having a producer pointing fingers at him.

"Okay!" Mu Chen responded immediately.

"Oh?" Chen Mouzhi was taken aback for a moment, but then smiled.

He didn't expect Mu Chen to agree so simply.

However, thinking about it, it does not seem to be surprising.

The relationship between the two has always been good, not to mention that Chen Mouzhi's director level is not bad.

The cooperation between the two parties can be regarded as a strong alliance.

There are not many contracted directors for Chenxi Film and Television, especially in terms of movies, except for Mu Chen, there seems to be none.

However, the films produced by Chenxi Film and Television are not limited to the works directed by Mu Chen.

Mu Chen could cooperate with Yuan Hong, Zhang Gang and others, so naturally he would not refuse to cooperate with him.

"How does Director Chen want to cooperate?" Mu Chen said, "Like Director Zhang and Director Yuan?"

"Okay!" Chen Mouzhi nodded and said.

In fact, the films that Yuan Hong is making now are not written by Mu Chen, but by the screenwriting team of Chen Xi Film and Television.

"What kind of film does Director Chen want to make?" Mu Chen nodded and said.

How to cooperate is determined in general. As for the details, it is the negotiation between Chen Mouzhi Studio and Chenxi Film and Television.

This Mu Chen will not interfere.

"What about Director Mu's opinion?" Chen Mouzhi said.

In fact, Chen Mouzhi is good at many genres, especially historical war scenes.

However, Mu Chen knew very well that when Chen Mouzhi asked him to cooperate, he obviously wanted to seek a breakthrough in the international market. If he was making this type of movie, there was no need to come to him.

"How about I think about it first?" Mu Chen said, "After I write the script, if Director Chen is interested, then we can talk about it."

"Okay." Chen Mouzhi nodded.

There was no rush for this.

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was nominated for ten Oscars, and it was extremely sensational, even CCTV News reported it.

The intensity of the CCTV movie channel's report is naturally greater.

Of course, Mu Chen's press conference also aroused great heated discussions.

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon is Mu Chen's least favorite movie."

"Mu Chen's favorite work is actually it."

"Mu Chen mocked the sailors who blacked out "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance"."

Mu Chen mentioned the film "Tang Bohu Spots the Autumn Fragrance" several times at the press conference, and the effect was pretty good.

At least the box office has gone up a lot.

"How?" Mu Chen looked at Chen Fuhai with a smile.

"Look again." Chen Fuhai smiled and said, "Your sci-fi movie is a bit mind-boggling."

Mu Chen smiled and stopped urging.

Every time before he prepares to shoot, he will habitually show Chen Fuhai first, and then listen to his opinion.

Although, sometimes Chen Fuhai holds different opinions.

"How much do you estimate the production cost of this film?" Chen Fuhai asked.

"One hundred million." Mu Chen thought for a while and said.

"So little?" Chen Fuhai said subconsciously.

The production cost of a martial arts film is more than [-] million. How could such a sci-fi blockbuster be only [-] million.

"U.S. dollar." Mu Chen said.

Upon hearing this, Chen Fuhai nodded.

That's not too far from his estimate.

This movie is Mu Chen's second step towards the international market, and it is very important to fully open up the international reputation.

What's more, Chen Fuhai, who has read the script, knows very well that if the investment in this film is low, it will not be able to produce any effect at all.

However, Mu Chen's [-] million US dollars, the possibility of overspending is not small.

This movie needs more budget.

Chenxi Film and Television is now rich and powerful, but after acquiring Xuanying Digital Special Effects Company, it is now deploying domestic theaters. If "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" hadn't been amazing at the box office, it would really not be able to get it out for a while.

Of course, after "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is released, there should be a lot of money coming in.

One hundred million was indeed Mu Chen's initial budget.

The original made more than $5000 million, and it was only the official answer.

As for the actual cost is high, or low, it is not known.

However, the cost of domestic filming is far lower than that of Hollywood filming.

Whether it's actors' remuneration, or props and costumes, etc.

If this film hadn't been shot in many foreign locations, the production cost would probably be lower than the original version.

"Who are the actors going to use?" Chen Fuhai continued to ask, "Should Ke Bu let your brother act?"

Produced by Chenxi Film and Television, whether it is a TV series variety show or a movie, the choice of actors is naturally limited. Consider the contracted artists of Chenxi Film and Television.

Today, among the contracted artists of Chenxi Film and Television, Mu Ze is the only one who can take on the leading role in this film.

Mu Chen became famous internationally with "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", so Mu Ze will definitely develop internationally gradually.

After "Wolf Warrior 2", Mu Ze's domestic development has fallen into a bottleneck.

"Ask when my brother comes back." Mu Chen thought for a while and said.

Chen Fuhai looked at Mu Chen with some doubts.

"My brother and the others are getting married." Mu Chen said.

"What? What!" Chen Fuhai was a little surprised when he heard it.

He feels a little. Fast!
Yes, it is fast!
Mu Chen and Li Ruoxi have announced their relationship for so many years, but there is no sign of marriage.

But Mu Ze and Su Xiaowan seemed to be together only last year, right?
"Why so suddenly?" Chen Fuhai said.
