Chapter 409 The smell of burning weeds

The news about Yu Zheng's remake of "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" has once again made waves, because the pending casting of Bruce Lee has finally been confirmed.

Subsequently, the set photos of the crew were exposed through Sina Weibo.

In the exposed photos, Xiao Longnu is not dressed in traditional white, but in white as the main tone, with a light blue skirt, a baby-fat face and a slightly chubby figure, all of which have become reasons for netizens to complain.

"Little Dragon Girl has turned into a steamed dumpling!"

"Is the big eagle still too hump to touch my aunt?"

“The food in the ancient tomb is so good”

"Xiao Longnu, please stay in the ancient tomb. Don't come out. Don't come out."

"Thank you. This couple is really worth complaining about. They are so happy. Are you sure this isn't a costume country love story?"

The comments are endless.

As a result, some netizens put #陈奕祇Get out of the entertainment circle# and #宇正get out of the entertainment circle# to the top of the hot topic list.

On the contrary, the water chestnut-like hairstyle in Michelle Chen’s makeup photo is extremely strange.

At the end of the movie, the audience gave me applause. I don’t know if this applause was for me back then or for this movie today.

Liu Yifei looked at Li Mu without knowing why, but she didn't feel much.

Seeing Jiang Wen's dazed look, Li Mu couldn't help but joked.

"I can guarantee that after the TV series comes out, no one will say that she doesn't look like Little Dragon Girl."

"No, let me rest for a while."

Liu Yifei frowned slightly and looked at the photos published in the media reports on her mobile phone. She didn't quite understand how the two of them looked alike.

The first screening of the film was packed with seats, with the director and the two main actors in the film, Xia Yu and Geng Le, all present.

"Why do you, an old man, feel this way?"

"Let's leave now and come over in a few days to attend the premiere of my new movie."

The restored versions of the Chinese-language classics "Sunny Days" and "Sweetie" will not only return to the Venice Film Festival, but the restored version of "Sunny Days" will also have a low-key premiere in the imperial capital.

"Li Mu, you are going to make me mad."

Not only Jiang Wen was immersed in memories, but the fans who saw the movie were also collectively immersed in memories.

Just like the classic monologue in the movie.

However, Chinese-language films are not without success.

"."

"."

The re-release of the restored version of this movie has made many movie fans born in the 70s and even the 80s excited about it.

"???"

After Li Mu and Jiang Wen said hello, they took Liu Yifei and left first.

For this reason, Yu Zheng had to stand up and defend the new version of Xiao Longnu and himself.

"Outing" by Taiwanese director Tsai Ming-liang won the Grand Jury Prize, second only to the Golden Lion.

"She is really thin, beautiful, celestial, and unimaginably beautiful."

"Be gentle and it will hurt!!!"

"What happened that summer is always accompanied by the smell of burning weeds in my memory."

"You know what's most like you about her?"

For this reason, Jiang Wen specially invited Li Mu and Liu Yifei.

Li Mu held his belly and laughed non-stop, tears streaming down his face.

The closing ceremony of the 70th Venice Film Festival also kicked off a few days ago. This time, the Golden Lion Award was a bit surprising. It was awarded to the Italian documentary "Grand Tour".

Seeing that Liu Yifei didn't seem to have recovered from the movie, Li Mu wavered in front of her eyes a few more times.

After a lapse of 19 years in the movie, everything seems to be different.

"."

After Li Mu regained his breath, he asked with a smile.

"You see, you all have dumpling faces, but she is more obvious, she is a xiaolongbao."

Jiang Wen glanced at it and found that most of the people watching the movie on Broadway were older.

Liu Yifei jumped directly on Li Mu and pinched his flesh crazily.

"Chen Yanxi gave me a lot of confidence. She is so beautiful. The key is that she has lost a lot of weight."

"What's wrong? Are you still in a trance?"

Li Mu slapped his thigh and laughed wildly.

This is not what Yu Zhengnima said when he opened his eyes and told lies.

"No, I'm just thinking about what the middle-aged viewers will be like back then."

"No, I was wondering what burning weeds smells like."

Liu Yifei is not old enough and has no experience.

"That's the smell of memory. Your mother probably knows that too."

Li Mu smiled. "At that time, there was a lot of 'spring cleaning', and the grass, stems and leaves swept out from schools, government agencies, family homes, and streets would be piled together and burned.

The presence of this smell in the air means it's autumn.

You can understand that it is a unique hormonal taste."

Li Mu found that when he was explaining, he seemed to have an inexplicable feeling. This might be the residual warmth of the movie still lingering in his heart.

At this time, Akira Kurosawa and Hayao Miyazaki, known as the animation industry, held a press conference in Tokyo, Japan, to officially announce their retirement.

The 72-year-old Hayao Miyazaki has always insisted on drawing his works by hand. It may be difficult to complete another feature film in the future, and retirement seems to be a normal thing.

"The Wind Rises" will also be his last animated feature film. On the day of his retirement, it exceeded 100 billion yen, and the box office on that day even surpassed "Your Name", which is currently being released in Japan.

For many directors, after they finish filming all the subjects they want to film in their lifetime, even if the box office is not good, even if they go against everyone's opinions, as long as they realize their dreams, it is time to say goodbye.

Taking "The Wind Rises" as the final chapter of Miyazaki's directorial career, it is most appropriate to use this realistic film to summarize his creative career.

The story inspired by the Zero Fighter is about anti-war, about teenage dreams, about the urge to fly, and most importantly, this is an extremely realistic animated feature film, somewhat similar to Studio Ghibli's previous anti-war work " Goodbye Fireflies".

Li Mu also made a phone call and went over to say hello.

"Thank you, Li. I watched your animated version of "Your Name" and it was very amazing."

Hayao Miyazaki sincerely praised, "I hope you can go further and further on this road."

"I'm not a pure animation director."

"That's such a pity."

Hayao Miyazaki said with regret in his words.

After "Your Name" exceeded 7 million domestically, it didn't have much energy to move forward. A few days before the release of "Edge of Tomorrow", it dropped to 7.34 million.

Although the box office has not exceeded 10 billion, it is still the holder of the highest box office for domestic animated films.

Previously, it was held by "Kung Fu Panda 2".

However, it is still very popular in Japan. After taking in 25.5 billion yen in the first week, it is still moving forward with about 2 million yen every day.

It seems to be even more powerful than the real-life version.

It is very likely to set a new record for Li Mu's movies in Japan.

"The animated version of "Your Name" was exported overseas and became a hit, breaking the overseas box office record for domestic animated films."

"Mengying Media once again achieved great success in overseas sales, and "Your Name" became a hit overseas."

Although the media's title is very impressive, it is Japan that actually created the conditions for "Your Name" to become popular. The box office in South Korea is still not as good as some Hollywood blockbusters currently in theaters, but the box office is still considerable.

Li Mu expects to earn more than 2000 million U.S. dollars, which is pretty good for a small country like South Korea.

As for North America and other places, Warner bought the rights directly.

Europe and the United States are still more interested in Hollywood-style cartoons, and their estimation of this fresh and refreshing genre is just that, so Li Mu didn't bother and just packed it up and sold it.

At present, "Your Name" has not been released in North America. Li Mu estimates that European and American audiences will not be able to see it until next year, because the Christmas period in Europe and the United States will soon be ushered in, and competition before and after this period is extremely fierce.

For example, the second part of Crystal Pictures' "The Hunger Games" was released at the end of November.

The time is gradually approaching. After the overall weakness of the movie market in September and the coldest single-day box office of this year, two masterpieces came one after another to save the market.

Facing the film market that has fallen into a small trough, it is given hope of rescue.

The first to appear is Tsui Hark's "Detective Detective Dee: The Dragon King", which returns to the National Day release after three years.

The premiere was very flashy, taking the audience into the prosperous Tang Dynasty, and it was grandly released on September 9.

Li Mu took Liu Yifei to watch the movie, and the filming was indeed good. In addition to the shocking "Dragon King", "Asia's Biggest Monster" and "Ao Huang", there are also the creepy "Gu" and other movie "software".

The Chinese film’s first exploration of “hardware” such as the 3D underwater world also makes the film one of the representatives of the top 3D technology in Chinese films.

"Director Li, the pressure is on you."

Tsui Hark called loudly early the next morning.

The box office of "The Dragon King" soared after its release. The box office on the first day was about 6400 million yuan, and it was definitely over million yuan the next day.

Many theater managers showed smiles when they saw it. It could be said that it was the first explosion in September, and the rain came after a long drought.

This is currently Tsui Hark's highest-grossing film in a single day.

"Director Xu, why don't the shots of Oiran Eun Rui Ji not have enough close-ups? There are some flaws. Why do you zoom out so often?"

Li Mu saw this and struck quickly to suppress Old Monster Xu's momentum.

You must know that Tsui Hark is best at photographing women, especially beauties of ancient styles. In his shots, all of them are natural and beautiful, and they are all stunning.

Hearing Li Mu talk about this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. He was really blind when he chose Yang Ying to play this role.

It seems that Yin Ruiji in the film is graceful and charming. It can be said that everything from her eyes to her movements is beautiful, but little did she know that what he filmed was really a torture.

These two scenes alone took him seven days, causing the entire play to continue to lag. Just the pipa-playing scene took three days and three nights to shoot.

She wanted to dance, but she couldn't dance, so she had no choice but to ask the crew to find a blower and keep blowing away the flowers, while Yang Ying only had to hold the pipa and make poses.

In the scene of seducing Mr. Yuan, a few loving movements gave him a headache, so he could only go to the scene to guide and demonstrate the movements one by one.

The final shot was still substandard in his opinion.

"Today's so-called popular stars are at most third-tier actors whose standards still have a lot of room for improvement."

Tsui Hark said bluntly, and then laughed: "Now we wait to see your performance, Director Li."
