my superstar girlfriend

Chapter 422
"War God" swept the box office all over the world, and the popularity of Mu Ze, Su Xiaowan and others rose again.

Among them, the one who rose the most was not Mu Ze and Su Xiaowan, the hero and heroine, nor the villain Gu Feng, but Zhang Yao, the director of the Special Administration Bureau.

This surprised even Mu Chen.

Mu Ze and Su Xiaowan didn't rise much, Mu Chen is not surprised, both of them are now stuck in a bottleneck.

Can Zhang Yao.
But it seems reasonable to think about it.

Unfortunately, it would be great if Chenxi Film and Television had suitable actors.Perhaps, with this role, it can also make it go international.

Zhang Yao also gained a lot of popularity internationally with this role.

In "Sword Immortal" and "War God", this character has fighting scenes, and his combat power is extremely high.

He is now at the top of the global fandom charts.

Of course, what kind of combat power ranking is extremely controversial.

Among them, the god king Odin of Asgard and the emperor of the eastern heaven realm had the most votes with the highest combat power.

As for Zhang Yao, he is praised by many movie fans as the strongest person on earth.

Even Baimei and Qinglian Sword Immortal of Shushan Sword Sect are much weaker in popularity.

The strong are admired.

The popularity of this character is naturally high, so it is not surprising that Zhang Yao's popularity has increased.

Of course, there are many debates, and no one can convince anyone.

Neither Chenxi Films nor Dream Films gave a clear answer.

They will not give an answer stupidly.

This kind of controversy, the more the better, how could Mu Chen give an answer?

"War God" hits theaters all over the world, but Mu Chen is still busy.

"I accepted a play." Li Ruoxi said to Mu Chen with a smile.

"Oh, looking at you, you seem to like this script very much." Mu Chen said.

"Well, an art film with a small budget." Li Ruoxi said.

"Little cost, if you play the role, I'm afraid no matter how small you are, you won't be able to go there." Mu Chen shook his head and said.

Today, Hollywood pays Li Ruoxi nearly 2000 million US dollars for the film, which is comparable to the salary of Hollywood first-line stars.

If 2000 million U.S. dollars is equivalent to RMB, that is more than 1 million.

Of course, the country can't reach so much, but it can't be less.

The remuneration of the heroine alone is more than 1 million yuan, and the investment in this film is not considered a small cost.

It is not uncommon for Chinese-language movies to start a commercial blockbuster model, with an investment of more than [-] million US dollars.

However, most of the movies are still only around [-] million Chinese dollars.

Small-budget art films usually only cost tens of millions of dollars.

A little bigger, estimated to be 5000 million, even if it is an art film directed by top domestic directors such as Zhang Gang, the investment will not be too high.

Perhaps, not too high.

"I invested in the film." Li Ruoxi said with a smile, "I acted with zero pay. The entire film investment is only about 1000 million."

"The script is so attractive?" Mu Chen was taken aback for a moment, and then became curious about the script.

Li Ruoxi smiled, and then handed the script to Mu Chen.

"It was written by an independent director." Li Ruoxi said.

Mu Chen nodded, then opened the script and read it.

"how?"

After a while, Li Ruoxi asked about Mu Chen.

"You're not afraid of becoming depressed after acting in this film!" Mu Chen shook his head and said.

The script is really good, but too depressing.

The heroine is miserable, but miserable.

He didn't like these kinds of films, never did.

"However, acting in this film is very helpful to your acting skills." Mu Chen continued, "Perhaps, there is a chance to compete for the Golden Dragon Award for Best Actress."

"I know you don't like this kind of movies." Li Ruoxi laughed.

Mu Chen's movies, whether they are action movies or sci-fi movies, basically don't have too depressing plots, and many of them contain comedy costs.Among them, there are many comedies.

For example, "East and West", which are now regarded as classics, and "Tang Bohu Spots Autumn Fragrance" are both comedies.

"Pay attention to regulating your emotions." Mu Chen thought for a while and said.

He actually didn't want Li Ruoxi to make this kind of film.

However, he also knows that although Li Ruoxi is now the most famous actress in China, she is more like an actress.

"Got it!" Li Ruoxi said with a smile.

Now that she took the role and even invested in the film out of her own pocket, how could she not be clear.

"When will the filming start?" Mu Chen asked immediately.

"There's nothing to prepare for this movie, it's probably half a month away." Li Ruoxi said.

Small-budget art films are naturally much easier to prepare than those commercial blockbusters.

Some even have actors in place, and the shooting can start immediately.

A blockbuster like "Guardians of the Galaxy" is obviously impossible.

I don't know how much time it will take to prepare the costumes and props.

"Ban Yue, are you going to the premiere of Director Xu's film?" Mu Chen continued to ask.

"Isn't his movie released on August [-]th?" Li Ruoxi said, "If the movie doesn't start, go ahead."

Xu Wen's film is undoubtedly delayed for some time.

Originally thought that Mu Chen's "War God" would be released in early August like the previous two years, so it was planned to be released in early July.

As a result, the order of the two films was reversed.

This is related to the fact that Chenxi Film and Television has only one film released this summer.

It was released on August [-]th, and "War God" had been released for three weeks at that time, so the potential must have been consumed a lot, and the impact on his film was naturally not that great.

In fact, two weeks after the release of "War God", there will be a blockbuster movie released.

It's a pity that the word-of-mouth was unsatisfactory. Except for the first day of its release, "War God" was squeezed out of the single-day box office champion, and it could only be inferior to "War God".

On August [-], the film directed by Xu Wen held a grand premiere ceremony.

With an investment of nearly [-] million US dollars, this film is considered a big production in Hollywood.

The reason for holding the premiere is naturally to create momentum for the film.

That night, Mu Chen and Li Ruoxi participated, which attracted a lot of media attention.

"I don't know why, but when I saw you, my heart suddenly became uneasy." After greeting Mu Chen and Li Ruoxi with a smile, Xu Wen shook his head and said.

"What's there to worry about, I won't ask you to pay back the money." Mu Chen said with a smile.

Xu Wen was taken aback for a moment, then laughed.

The talk of repaying the money is naturally a joke.

"I'm afraid that my film will fall under your "War God"!" Xu Wen shook his head and said, "If that's the case, I'll be ashamed. Losing to "War God" is not a shame, but losing to the three Zhou Zhou's "War God" will inevitably be a bit ugly. You have been a little depressed since you haven't seen Lao Bai."

The Lao Bai that Xu Wen spoke of was the director of the blockbuster movie released last week.

That movie was released for a day, and the box office plummeted.

Now, although it is second in the single-day box office list, it was crushed by "War God" which was released for half a month after its release, which is indeed a bit ugly.

"The director Xu I know is not so unconfident!" Li Ruoxi said with a smile.

"He didn't want to take this film." Chen Mouzhi walked over and said, "Unfortunately, I owed too many favors before."

"The investment of nearly [-] million US dollars should be cautious, right?" Mu Chen said in surprise.

Xu Wen didn't want to take it, it is very likely that he didn't like this movie.

"After you watch the movie, you will understand." Chen Mouzhi said.

Although Mu Chen was puzzled, he didn't continue to ask.

Soon, he understood.

Xu Wen's new film is a disaster film, and it somewhat imitates "The Day After Tomorrow".

Of course, imitation is not strong, let alone plagiarism.

This may also be one of the reasons why the producer approached Xu Wen.

If it is directed by other directors, it is estimated that they will be scolded, and their reputation will definitely be affected.

However, Mu Chen felt that Xu Wen seemed to want to get rid of the shadow of "The Day After Tomorrow", but he couldn't get rid of it completely.

No wonder Xu Wen didn't want to take this film.

The film is actually not bad, whether it is the plot or the special effects.

Xu Wen made the disaster film "The Day After Tomorrow" and it was well received. Naturally, he would not have any interest in this somewhat similar film.

"This movie is actually good, and the box office should be good too. Why doesn't Director Xu want to take it?" Li Ruoxi asked with some doubts.

This film may not be as good as "The Day After Tomorrow", but it is definitely a disaster film with a good reputation.

"Will you play a role similar to what you have played in the past?" Mu Chen asked with a smile.

When Li Ruoxi heard it, she immediately understood.

Of course she won't.

In fact, neither famous actors nor famous directors repeat their works.

Especially when it's one of my more famous works.

Of course, the sequel is another story.

When Xu Wen's film was released, the box office of "War God" was naturally affected.

However, although the throne of the single-day box office champion is gone, it is firmly ranked second in the single-day box office.

It can be seen how impressive the box office staying power of this film is.

Within two days, Li Ruoxi went to filming, while Mu Chen continued to prepare for "Guardians of the Galaxy", and then attended the launch conference of "Fuxi".

Directed by Feng Yi and starring Huang Yao, this movie still attracted countless media reporters.

As for Mu Chen appearing at the launch conference as a producer, it was undoubtedly a pleasant surprise for them.

"Director Mu, "Fuxi" tells the story before "Chasing the Deer", and it's not the so-called previous work. So, is Chenxi Film and Television planning to create a mythical movie world?"

Mu Chen's appearance undoubtedly attracted the attention of many media reporters.

Therefore, when the reporter asked questions, the first question was Mu Chen.

Of course, this question is obviously better than asking Feng Yi the director.

Mu Chen is not only the producer of this film, but also the boss of Chenxi Film and Television.

"If possible, it would be great." Mu Chen smiled and said, "However, the film world is so easy to create. Before, Chenxi Film and Television tried to create a world of martial arts, but in the end it ended without a problem."

Chenxi Film and Television really intends to create a mythical movie world?
The eyes of the reporters in the audience lit up.

However, it is indeed not so difficult to create a movie world.

I don't know how many film and television companies in the world wanted to do this, but only Mu Chen succeeded in the end.

There are film and television companies in Hollywood based on the world of comics, and they have failed to create a movie world, let alone others.

There are many myths in China, but they are complicated. If you want to form a movie world, it may be much more difficult than the martial arts world that Chenxi Film and Television tried to create.

It is hard to say whether the adaptation of those fairy tales will be recognized by domestic movie fans, let alone foreign ones.

If it only gets a domestically recognized film world, I am afraid that Chenxi Film and Television will give up.

"Chasing the Deer" has invested one billion Chinese dollars, and "Fuxi" is obviously not too bad, so the film is aimed at the international market.

If it is cold abroad, this mythical film world will definitely die.
