my superstar girlfriend

Chapter 274 Is Mu Chen Still Good at Animation Movies?
Among many big-name actors, Mu Ze is definitely young.

However, he is the actor with the highest cumulative box office in China.Even Li Long and Cheng Jie, who have starred in many films in Hollywood, are not as good as him at the box office.

And now, he is the first Chinese actor nominated for the Oscar for Best Actor.

This undoubtedly added a brilliant touch to his resume.

Perhaps, his current international reputation is not as good as that of Li Long and Cheng Jie, but it is probably only a matter of time before he surpasses them.

"How do you feel about being shortlisted for the Oscar for Best Actor?"

"Surprise! Well, there is still some pressure." Mu Ze said, "Whether I win or not, I think it's an affirmation of my acting skills."

In the words, Mu Ze obviously did not have confidence.

He probably doesn't think he can win an Oscar for Best Actor with "Inception".

"Will you go to Hollywood to develop like Cheng Jie and Li Long?"

"If there is a good script, I will definitely accept it." Mu Ze thought for a while and said, "However, it shouldn't be possible to talk about going to Hollywood to develop! The times are different, and Chinese-language movies can go abroad, so Chinese actors naturally don't need to go to Hollywood. , can also have a place in the international arena.”

Mu Ze has never been without Hollywood, and now he has gained international popularity with Chinese-language movies?

When "I Am Legend" is released, it is estimated that he deserves the title of "International Superstar".

Of course, the premise is that "I Am Legend" can achieve good results internationally.

Movies have gone abroad, so movie actors will naturally go international with the movies.

Times have indeed changed.

Back then, if Li Long and Cheng Jie wanted to gain international fame, they could only go to Hollywood.

The influence of Chinese-language films at that time was hard to compare with today's.

Mu Ze is undoubtedly catching up with a good time.

"Will Su Xiaowan quit the entertainment circle and take care of the children at home?"

This is not the first time Mu Ze has been asked this question.

"No!" Mu Ze said with certainty, "However, as for when and how to make a comeback, it has not been determined yet."

Su Xiaowan has made great achievements in movies, TV, and even variety shows.

If she comes back, these are all options.

However, how to make a comeback specifically still requires the corresponding department of the company to make a plan.

After all, Su Xiaowan hadn't appeared in front of the public for a long time.

It's definitely down in popularity these days.

The exposure rate has a great influence on the popularity of a star.

Su Xiaowan is not bad, Mu Ze is on fire now, as Mu Ze's wife, even if she doesn't do anything, she still has a lot of exposure.

Her popularity may have declined, but her background is still there. Once she comes back, with the resources of Chenxi Film and Television, it is possible to make her go further, let alone reach her previous heights.

As the company develops, its artists will naturally follow suit.

"Are you going to the Golden Dragon Awards Ceremony?" Mu Chen asked Li Ruoxi.

"I won't go." Li Ruoxi glanced at the sleeping child not far away, and said, "Although I got a nomination, the chance of winning is very small."

"Alright." Mu Chen nodded.

Although Li Ruoxi won the best actress nomination for "Inception", Mu Chen was not optimistic.

Mu Chen also hired someone to look after the children, but Li Ruoxi preferred to do it herself.

More people are invited to direct or help.

"Sister Xiaowan going?" Li Ruoxi asked casually.

"I'll go!" Mu Chen said, "She seems to be preparing to make a comeback. According to what Lao Chen said, the company is still considering whether to let her appear in variety shows or film and television dramas."

"What does Miss Xiaowan mean?" Li Ruoxi asked.

"She probably intends to join variety shows," Mu Chen said.

"Variety show?" Li Ruoxi was a little surprised.

Su Xiaowan's popularity exploded, indeed from variety shows.However, there are more variety shows, and for an actor, the impact is not small.

That impact has been both good and bad.

"The filming cycle is too long." Mu Chen said.

When Li Ruoxi heard it, she immediately understood.

The child is still young, so Su Xiaowan obviously doesn't want to be separated for too long.

Whether it's a TV series or a movie, at least it takes a month or two.

It's different when it comes to variety shows. It only takes two or three days to record one episode.

The Golden Dragon Award Ceremony is approaching, and the Spring Festival fight has come to an end.

"The Richest Man in Xihong City" eventually became the biggest winner.

With an investment of only more than 1 million yuan, the final box office exceeded 30 billion yuan.Chenxi Film and Television once again achieved a good harvest.

Li Chao made a comeback with this film and regained his confidence as a director.

Of course, this film also made him gain a lot.

He not only starred in and directed the film, but also invested in it.

Although, his investment ratio is not large.

Can't stand the high rate of return of this film!
"There is a director. When I think of Chenxi Film and Television, I am a little undecided."

Mu Chen had just entered the office and was about to go to the special effects department to continue the post-production special effects of "Avatar", but he didn't want Chen Fuhai to walk in.

"Who is so awesome that Mr. Chen is embarrassed?" Mu Chen looked over in surprise.

There are quite a few directors in Chenxi Film and Television, but not many.Compared with actors, directors are undoubtedly more lacking.

As for Chen Fuhai's ability and vision, there is no doubt about it.

Chenxi Film and Television has today, and he has contributed a lot.

He actually struggled with signing a director?
This made Mu Chen curious.

"Tian Peng!" Chen Fuhai said.

When Mu Chen heard this, he felt embarrassed, obviously he had never heard of the director's name.

If it was an unknown person, Chen Fuhai would not be embarrassed.

"The director of "Magic Boy"!" Chen Fuhai said.

""Magic Boy"? The director of the animated film with an investment of over [-] million and a box office of over [-] million?"

Mu Chen remembered it all at once.

He also guessed why Chen Fuhai was struggling and couldn't make up his mind.

Chen Fuhai nodded.

"I also watched that movie on the Internet." Mu Chen said, "The picture is good, but the plot is a bit bloody. Many parts are handled well. That movie really invested [-] million?"

In Mu Chen's opinion, that movie had an effect of at most 5000 million!
As for the box office hitting the street, there is a big factor in not giving it to you in the announcement.

"Many film promotions will exaggerate the cost." Chen Fuhai said, "The same is true for the animated film "Magic Boy". As far as I know, the production cost of this film is only [-]!"

"3000 million?" Mu Chen was a little surprised, and said, "It's not bad to be able to achieve this level with 3000 million. This director's ability is still good."

3000 million investment blown into [-] million?
The bragging is so big, do you really think the audience is a fool?

The box office hit the street, and there may be reasons for this.

Mu Chen had to mourn for the director for a second.

The success and failure of a movie is really a combination of many aspects.

"Tian Peng should be said to be the best animation director in China." Chen Fuhai said.

"Aren't you also fond of animated movies?" Mu Chen looked at Chen Fuhai and asked with a smile.

Chen Fuhai was entangled, obviously it was here.

Tian Peng is undoubtedly a talent.

But if you sign someone in Chenxi Film and Television, you can't put it on the shelf.

Then you have to invest in an animated film.

"The national conditions are so!" Chen Fuhai shook his head and said.

National conditions!

What national conditions?
Animated movies are younger or childish.

When it comes to cartoons nowadays, the first thing many people think of is undoubtedly what children watch.

If that adult ran to see it, he would probably have received ridiculed blank stares.

To be precise, it is a domestic cartoon.

Hollywood animated films actually do well at the domestic box office.

"I'm very optimistic about the potential of the animation film market." Mu Chen said.

"Oh?" Chen Fuhai looked at Mu Chen, but smiled, and said, "Then signed him?"

"Sign!" Mu Chen said, "I'll talk to him some time."

Chen Fuhai is actually optimistic about the potential of the animation film market, but domestic animation is almost all juvenile, which is a status quo that has to be considered.

If you invest in animated films, the risk is obviously not so big.

If the "cognition" of domestic movie fans cannot be changed, then the box office of animated movies is limited.

However, now that Mu Chen spoke, Chen Fuhai's hesitation was gone.

"Are you going to enter the animated film?" Chen Fuhai looked at Mu Chen and said.

"It's not me, it's Chenxi Film and Television." Mu Chen said with a smile.

Mu Chen may not be able to direct, but writing a script is still credible.

Seeing Mu Chen nodding his head, Chen Fuhai immediately looked forward to it.

In the previous life, there were so many classic animated films, and the global box office broke one billion US dollars.

Of course, it was impossible for Mu Chen to watch all the movies.

For example, "Frozen" with a box office of over 12 billion US dollars, Mu Chen has only heard of it, but has never seen it.

However, there are quite a few animated movies in his mind.

Such as "Ice Age" series, "Shrek" series, "Kung Fu Panda" series, "Despicable Me" series.
Are these not enough?

In addition, domestic high-grossing animated films such as "The Return of the Great Sage" and "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World" and so on.

There are many choices, but Mu Chen is not entangled.

A few days later, Tian Peng came to Mu Chen's office.

Mu Chen struck a sword, but was stunned for a moment.That Tian Peng is tall and burly, with a big bald head, quite like a big brother on the road.

There are indeed talents in the group of domestic directors!
"Sit down!" Mu Chen said with a smile.

He could see that Tian Peng was a little restrained.

The style of the big brother on the road is gone.

Tian Peng is naturally restrained, and Mu Chen is his boss now.What's more, even if Mu Chen is not his boss, he is still an internationally renowned director. Now he is just an animation director on the street.

"Look at it first, after reading it, let's talk about it." Mu Chen handed over a script directly.

""Kung Fu Panda"?" Tian Peng looked at Mu Chen in astonishment, but his heart suddenly became excited.

Just by looking at the name, Tian Peng can tell that it is an animated movie.

Kung fu belongs to China, and pandas belong to China.

This is an animated film script with Chinese characteristics.

Suppressing the excitement in his heart, Tian Peng opened the script and read it carefully.

Mu Chen's script can be encountered but not sought after.

Big directors like Zhang Gang and Chen Mouzhi had to give up some interests to cooperate with Chenxi Film and Television, just for Mu Chen to write a script.

The plot is not complicated, it just tells the story of a clumsy panda who aspires to become a martial arts master.

However, the characters inside are very distinctive.

The main characters, with distinct personalities.

The wisdom of Master Turtle, the thoughts of Master Raccoon, the persistence of Po the Panda, the cleverness and bravery of Jiaohu, the kindness of the Crane, the calmness of the Golden Monkey, the kindness of the Spirit Snake, the enthusiasm of the Praying Mantis, the bravery and cruelty of the Great Dragon, Mr. Ping The wisdom and the cowardice of the mountain steward
Tian Peng understood why the outside world praised Mu Chen's script so highly.

And behind the script, there are some images of the main characters.

Is Mu Chen still good at animation movies?
