Chapter 124 Inception

May 2st, morning.

Li Mu sorted out the relevant materials of "Inception" in the office. Looking at the list of cast members and actors of this movie, Li Mu's heartbeat accelerated uncontrollably.

Thinking of him, Li Mu, he was just a mediocre director in his previous life, but he didn't expect to be able to organize such a luxurious game in this life.

Movie Name: "Inception"

Producers: Han Sanping, Li Mu, Victoria Alonso (one of the Big Six in Hollywood, representative of Disney), Yan Yiyun, Wang Changtian, Yu Dong, Wang Zhongjun.

Producers: Huang Jianxin, Jeremy Racham.

Director: Li Mu.

Assistant directors: Zhou Xiaowen, Diao Yinan, Anthony Russell, Joe Russell.

Producers: Li Mu, Thomas Tour.

Photography: Zhao Fei, Emmanuel Lubezki.

Two of the foreign assistant directors-Anthony Russell and Joe Russell are two brothers, and the two brothers will direct the third and fourth parts of the "Avengers" series in the future.

Foreign photographer Emmanuel Lubezki is the photographer of "Gravity" in the original world, and he also won the Oscar for Best Cinematography for this film.

The 3D technology of "Gravity" has made breakthroughs on the basis of "Avatar". Li Mu will definitely make "Gravity" in the future, and even intends to rush to release it before "Avatar", so he pays more attention to the past life. The production team of the film.

At this time, 3D technology is close to maturity, and Li Mu's idea is not completely inoperable.

As for the other assistant directors and photographer Zhao Fei, they are all members of Xiying Film Studio. These people have also cooperated with Li Mu several times, and they know each other well.

Let's look at the main cast list of the movie:

Actor Dom Cobb (Dream Inception) played by: Tom Hanks.

The heroine Mel (the actor's late wife) is played by Marion Cotillard.

Actress (Dream Maker) played by Liu Yifei.

Outpost played by: Li Mu.

The pharmacist is played by Hong Jinbao.

The Pretender: Michael Fassbender.

This role was played by Tom Hardy (the protagonist of Venom) in the original movie, but now Li Mu has replaced him with Michael Fassbender (played by Magneto in the original time and space "X-Men: The First War") for various reasons. By)
Tycoon Saito played by Ken Watanabe.

Target Fisher played by Cillian Murphy.

The actor's father-in-law Miles is played by Michael Caine.

Most of the actors are from the original time and space. The "Inception" of the original time and space has proved the vision of director Nolan in selecting candidates, so there is no need for Li Mu to be thankless and superfluous.

……

At around eleven o'clock in the morning, actor Chen Zhixi came to Li Mu's office.

"Hello, Mr. Li."

"Hello, sit down."

Chen Zhixi carefully sat on the sofa, and at the same time quietly looked at the furnishings of this office and Li Mulai behind the desk.

She usually has a very carefree character, but today's meeting seemed a bit unusual, so she had to be cautious.

What she got was just a flight attendant who didn't have many roles, and Li Mu actually made Li Mu call her personally and make an appointment to meet her, which seemed unbelievable to Chen Zhixi.

Li Mu picked up Chen Zhixi's information and looked at it, then raised his head and said:

"If Huashang wants to recruit you to be Huashang's signed artist, are you willing?"

Chen Zhixi quickly calculated the gains and losses in her mind, guessed Li Mu's purpose, and said vaguely at the same time:

"I already have a contracted company. If I change jobs, it may be more troublesome."

Li Mu smiled and said, "Don't worry about that, we will come forward and talk to your contracted company."

"I am willing." Chen Zhixi said decisively after quickly weighing the pros and cons.

Who in the current entertainment industry doesn't know the almost limitless potential of this company, Huashang?
As long as you can get into the eyes of director Li Mu, your future will be limitless.

She just didn't understand what Li Mu was looking for in her, but this did not prevent her from desperately grasping this hard-won opportunity.

At this time, I heard Li Mu say again: "Alright then, go to the manager's office to find Liu Siying, and she will be fully responsible for the specific operations of terminating the contract with your original company and signing with Huashang."

Chen Zhixi nodded, then turned and went to Liu Siying's office.

At this stage, Chen Zhixi is just an ordinary actor. If Li Mu directly said that he wanted to recruit her as his assistant, it would seem a bit too abrupt.You might as well sign the economic contract with your own company first. After the filming of "Inception" starts, the two will naturally have many opportunities to meet on the set. At that time, Li Mu can use the reason that she feels suitable to be an assistant through observation. new job.

2 month 28 day.

Li Mu, Liu Yifei, Huang Jianxin, Zhou Xiaowen, Diao Yinan, Zhao Fei, Chen Zhixi and others flew to Paris, France, where "Inception" will be the first filming location.

Among them, Hong Jinbao will lead some members of the Hong family to set off from Xiangjiang; Tom Hanks, Marion Cotillard, Emmanuel Lubezki, Anthony Russell, Joe Russell and others will set off from the United States, and everyone will gather at that time In Paris, "Inception" is officially launched.

This time Li Mu didn't plan to hold a launch ceremony, but the reporter still got the news that "Inception" will be launched in Paris, and also exposed the film's cast list.

Looking at this super luxurious cast, there was another upsurge of discussion on the Huaxia Internet.

3 month 1 day.

Li Mu and his team arrived in Paris smoothly. At this time, the American team had already moved into the hotel rented by the film crew. Li Mu and others met and communicated with the American team as soon as they arrived.

That night, all the main personnel of the crew came to Li Mu's room, and everyone reconfirmed the details of tomorrow's shooting together.

"Bill Hakem Bridge is one of the most famous century-old bridges among the 37 bridges on the Seine River. The Swan Island in the center of the bridge is an excellent location to watch the Eiffel Tower. There are many tourists passing by here every day. Although we We have obtained the local filming permit, but we must try our best not to affect the normal sightseeing behavior of tourists, so we will try our best to solve the scene tomorrow.”

Speaking of which, Li Mu turned to look at Liu Yifei: "Yifei, your play tomorrow is very important. Although the character is stabbed in a dream, the setting of this movie is that the dream is so real that people can't tell what it is." Reality is a dream, so the fear of being stabbed to death but unable to wake up no matter what must be performed."

Liu Yifei nodded.

Li Mu said again: "It's best to think about how to act tomorrow tonight. We all know that for an actor, fear is the most difficult feeling to recreate."

"Because when people feel fear, most of the physiological reactions are caused by your body system unconsciously, such as pupil constriction, heartbeat speeding up, adrenaline rising, pale face, and inner and physical manifestations are different. Ordinary courage and strength, etc., and these physiological reactions are the most difficult for an actor to control."

Liu Yifei immediately became nervous when he heard the words.

Do you have to act in such a difficult scene right from the start?
