this night.

At this time, Li Mu had finished washing and was lying on the bed ready to rest at any time, when Liu Yifei suddenly sent a text message.

"Are you asleep?"

Li Mu smiled at this classic opening line, and then replied:
"Not yet, I can't sleep alone."

"Oh." Liu Yifei replied, "You are an international director, a great writer, and a rich man. There should be many beauties who will take the initiative to throw themselves into your arms, right? Why are you so lonely and sleepless?"

Li Mudao: "There are two types of beauties in the entertainment industry, one is famous women who have their own masters, and we stipulate that we can't do that kind of thing."

Liu Yifei replied: "Isn't there another kind of unnamed flower with an owner?"

Li Mu said: "No one wants it, and neither do I!"

At this time, Liu Yifei on the other end of the phone almost laughed, but she still remembered the purpose of contacting Li Mu tonight.

"I don't know where you learned these strange words. If you don't want them, then you'll be single all the time—Actually, I'm looking for you tonight because I need your consent."

Li Mu asked back: "Need my consent? This really stumps me, tell me!"

Maybe it was because he hated typing too slowly, at this time Liu Yifei dialed the phone directly: "There will be a celebration party for the premiere of "The King of Kung Fu", and the scale will be about 500 people."

"Wang Zhonglei, Mr. Wang, meant that he would invite a world-renowned DJ to play discs. He also said that he would invite the leading actors of the movie to perform at the party."

"If I'm asked to perform, I don't know anything else, either dancing or singing. I really like the song you sang in the car that day. Can I sing this song at the party?"

"You are talking about the song "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky"!" Li Mu said in a long voice, "That song was created after several years of hard thinking and meditation, and it is the most satisfying song so far. A song. It is no exaggeration to say that this song alone can make a singer famous, and maybe a singer can live his whole life relying on this song! In short, the value of this song is inestimable.”

"Hmm...then..." Liu Yifei didn't know what to do, "then...then what are you going to do to let me sing this song at the party?"

"Well..." Li Mu suddenly laughed, "I don't want you 100 million, and I don't want you 200 million. Then, when you sing this song at the party, someone should ask you who this song is Right? When the time comes, you can tell them that this is a song written for you by the very handsome Li Mu, whom you have always had a crush on."

"what?"

Liu Yifei was dumbfounded: "Are you serious?"

Li Mudao: "Of course it is true. Anyway, if you want to sing this song, then follow what I said."

Liu Yifei snorted, "I'm not going to say anything. At that time, I'll just perform a dance or sing a song by Wang Fei. Who cares about your song!"

"Forget it if you don't care about it." After speaking, Li Mu hung up the phone and rested.

But Liu Yifei on the other end of the phone was entangled for almost a whole night because of Li Mu's words.

Ever since Li Mu sang the song "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky" in the car that day, she has fallen in love with this song thoroughly.

Afterwards, she even begged Li Mu to teach her this song. Since then, this song is what she hums the most in her mouth. This is why she immediately thought of this song after the crew asked her to perform. reason.

But what if Li Mu says he doesn't agree with her singing?
Is she really going to say at the premiere that she has a crush on that guy?Do you really want to praise him for being very handsome?
Pooh!
She, Liu Yifei, would rather starve to death than do such a shameful thing!
……

In the blink of an eye, January 2008, 1 arrived.

On this day, Zhou Xingchi's three-year film "Yangtze River No. [-]" held its world premiere in Xiangjiang. Zhou Xingchi held the hand of the young actor Xu Jiao in the premiere, attracting a large crowd of citizens to watch.Actors such as Zhang Yuqi and Huang Lei also attended the promotional event that day.

Almost at the same time, the crew of the film "The King of Kung Fu" spent tens of millions to hold a grand premiere ceremony. Producers of the film Wang Zhongjun and Wang Zhonglei, director Rob Minkoff, starring Cheng Long, Li Lianjie, Liu Yifei, Fan Binbin, Michael Angarano, etc. People walked through the red carpet one by one, causing the audience to burst into endless cheers.

After the red carpet show, there was a celebration party that lasted about an hour. More than 500 celebration guests and film creators gathered together, and everyone pushed the atmosphere of the party to a climax through various interactive programs.

At the end of the party, Liu Yifei, the heroine of the movie, sang an original song "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky" for everyone.

Just three days before the premiere, Li Mu made a special call to tell her that he was actually teasing her before, and she could sing any song she wanted.

【the brightest star in the night sky

Can you hear
the one who looks up

Loneliness and sigh
……

Whenever I can't find the meaning of existence

whenever i get lost in the dark

oh the brightest star in the night sky

oh please light me up
I pray to have a transparent heart

and tearful eyes

give me the courage to believe again

oh go over the lie to hug you
...]

To be honest, Liu Yifei's singing skills are not enough to sing the true essence of this song, but the guests at the scene were indeed amazed by the song of the fairy sister.

The words are good, the music is good, there is an inspiring power.

Just like in the lyrics: "Whenever I can't find the meaning of existence, whenever I get lost in the dark night, oh the brightest star in the night sky..."

It seems that this song can really bring strength to those who are confused.

At the end of the song, many guests at the scene were immersed in the singing and lyrics just now. It was not until the extremely warm applause broke out that everyone reacted to it, followed by even more enthusiastic applause.

There were constant cheers from the guests at the scene.

Then the host came on stage.

"Neither hello, I remember that you said before singing that this is an original song, and now we have seen that this song has conquered all the guests at the scene. I think there must be many people like me who love this song The song is full of curiosity, so now I will ask you the question in your heart, who is the songwriter of this song? Is it yourself?"

Liu Yifei said: "No, how could I write such a song."

The host asked again: "Then can you tell us who the author of this song is? Have all of us heard this person's name? I think it is not easy to write this kind of song. Who should it be? Has been a famous musician for a long time, right?"

At this time Liu Yifei suddenly blushed, a little surprised, a little sudden, even the host showed a surprised look.

"It's said that beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but in fact, in the eye of the beholder, why aren't you the brightest star in the night sky?" The host reacted really quickly, seeing Liu Yifei blushing and immediately said, "Then let me guess Guess, this song "The Brightest Star in the Night Sky" is actually a confession love song written by a boy who has a crush on Yifei, right?"

The guests at the scene were all quiet after hearing the words. Although they knew that Liu Yifei would never reveal their relationship on the spot today, everyone still couldn't help but waited for Liu Yifei's reply with great interest.

"Actually..." Liu Yifei brought the microphone to his lips, "Actually, this song was written by a very handsome boy whom I have had a crush on for a long time."

He said he couldn't sing unless he said what he said, and he said he was just teasing her, why should she be teased by him?At this moment Liu Yifei inexplicably had a rebellious mentality.

But after she finished speaking, she regretted it, so she blushed almost behind her ears.

Then the party scene suddenly fell silent, followed by a tsunami-like noise.

"What did Liu Yifei just say? I feel like I'm hallucinating!"

"Liu Yifei said that this song was written by a very handsome boy she had a crush on—yes, you don't have auditory hallucinations, Liu Yifei is crazy!"

"What's the situation? Is this going to expose the relationship?"

"Who is this man? Did he save the galaxy in his previous life? How dare he let the fairy sister secretly fall in love with him?"

"No - just now Liu Yifei said that she had a crush on her, not her?"

"That's why it's called explosive news!"

"Everyone is wondering who are the male stars in the entertainment industry who can write songs? This song is of such a high level, it can't be the work of some unknown person, right? Maybe we can dig out a big melon tonight!"

"Jay Chou? Lin Junjie? Wang Lihong? Wang Feng? Gao Xiaoshou?"

"Gao Xiaoshou? Why don't you die!!!"

……

The host was also a little dumbfounded, she just asked a random question, but she almost got a super big melon in the entertainment industry, so she hurriedly asked again:

"Who is that person you like?"

Liu Yifei acted coquettishly on the spot, blushing like a burning cloud in the sky: "Stop talking!"

"Yifei's blushing." The host continued to ask after teasing, "Does the other party know that you like him?"

Liu Yifei just smiled this time.

……

almost the same time.

The premiere of the movie "How to Steal the Key" was held at Wanda Cinema in Beijing.Producer, producer, producer, screenwriter Li Mu, director Shen Junsheng, starring Shen Teng, Huang Bo, Gao Yuanyuan and others attended the premiere.

A movie clip was played on the big screen behind the stage, and then Huang Bo sang and walked to the center of the stage:

[look up

sky and earth
There will be a longing in my heart called hometown
wounded all over

I go alone in the wind and rain...]

At the end of the song, Huang Bo played the role of the host temporarily. He first briefly introduced the general situation of the film to the guests, and then invited the main creators of the film——Li Mu, Shen Junsheng, Shen Teng, Gao Yuanyuan Waiting for people to come on stage one by one, and finally he sneaked into the main creative team without anyone noticing.

Then the two hosts of the movie channel came to the stage to take over the important task of hosting.You must know that today's premiere will be fully broadcast on the movie channel.

It is worth mentioning that Gao Yuanyuan took the initiative to hold Li Mu's arm when the group came on stage, and her manner was obviously a little intimate. Mu's shoulders.

Coupled with her affectionate eyes, many audience members were already surprised.

Li Mu glanced at Gao Yuanyuan next to him. Li Mu, who has been in the entertainment circle for more than [-] years in two lifetimes, has long been familiar with this phenomenon. In fact, Gao Yuanyuan's mind is not difficult to guess at all. Just fight for a page by yourself.

With Li Mu's current status and fame in the entertainment industry, if any actress behaved a little closer to him, she would basically have successfully booked the headlines of tomorrow's major entertainment sections.

What do stars pursue?Not famous yet?
May I ask, with such a huge profit, which actress can hold back a little thought?

For example, Li Mu had seen such a scene before time travel—two women, one man and three stars attended a press conference together. During the photo session, one of the female stars leaned her head on the male star's shoulder without a trace. Created an appearance of a good relationship between the two, the male star gave the female star a very surprised look, and the female star raised her head in embarrassment.

To say that it is not easy for female stars to gain fame, Li Mu did not show warning eyes like the male star in his previous life. He is a person who is sometimes soft-hearted.

Of course, this has nothing to do with Gao Yuanyuan's aesthetics. If it were Aunt Ximen who was filming a costume drama with Jiao Enjun, then Li Mu might be more than just warning eyes.

In the following interactive session with the audience, some audience members were very curious about the song that Huang Bo sang when he came on stage, and everyone thought that song was very nice.

"Actually, the songwriter of this song is among us today, and he is..." Huang Bo stretched out his hands in Li Mu's direction and compared, "Our producer, producer, screenwriter Director Li!"

"Director Li can still write songs?"

"If you know how to write a song, you can sing. Director Li, come up with a song?"

"Sing a... sing a..."

The audience started booing one after another.

Li Mu raised the microphone and said with a smile: "There is no hurry to sing, let's talk about movies first."

At this time, the host suggested that Li Mu talk about his original intention of creating this movie.

"The current society is under great pressure of competition. As an ordinary person, you will definitely encounter many setbacks on the road of struggle." Li Mu said eloquently, "Maybe some people are still uncertain at the age of 35." Therefore, he has no fixed job and lives in a small basement, and his girlfriend left him because of this.”

"At this time, we will instinctively find an excuse for our failure, and we will also imagine what would happen if we had other people's resources. This is the starting point of this movie. A 35-year-old depressed actor because of An accident exchanged identities with a killer, which triggered a series of ironic stories. I believe that the reversal of the final story will make everyone think deeply, because the small actors in the story are each of us on the scene. I believe that a story that happened in an ordinary The extraordinary stories of little people resonate with most people."

"Finally someone said they want to hear me sing? I think there is a song that really fits the theme of this movie."
