China Entertainment started from Nortel 2002

Chapter 5
Li Mu will definitely take the time to go to the beautiful country. Let’s not talk about the editing issue. The final film will definitely need to be finalized by the director.

We still need to confirm the release date with Warner. Li Mu has a rough idea of ​​the release time, but the final result still needs to be negotiated and confirmed by everyone.Things like pre-release publicity, premiere and other things need to be prepared. If the time is too short and too hasty, the gain will outweigh the loss.

"David, you look a lot fatter. It's only been a month. Is it because the food near the company is so good?" Li Mu saw this fat man as soon as he got off the plane.

"Oh, this damn figure, I have gained weight even if I drink water, and I don't know what's wrong." David was very depressed about his weight gain.

"We Chinese often say that when people reach middle age, they gain weight. You have entered middle age early."

"Dear BOSS, please don't mention it, okay? My wife won't let me sleep in the bed recently. She said that if I can't reduce the weight, she will change it."

……

"Okay, I understand." Mr. Han put down the phone in his hand and sat on his chair. There was a newspaper on the table, from Imperial Entertainment, with that photo on the front page.

Mr. Han both loves and hates Hollywood.At present, there are only a handful of people in China who have connections with Hollywood. He has just looked for connections and doesn't know much about Li Mu.

However, there was a book related to Li Mu that caught his attention and interest. It is "The Hunger Games", which is currently very popular among American teenagers.

"The Hunger Games" has currently sold 1500 million copies, and the number is still rising. The market expects total sales to be no less than 3000 million copies.

Mr. Han really wants to participate in a Hollywood movie, but judging from the current situation, it is not suitable.He has heard some of the above rumors and it is expected to be implemented soon. Looking at these domestic films, he doesn't have much choice at the moment.

He really wanted to give Li Mu a push and form a good relationship, which would also be considered as supporting the younger generation.However, the time is not yet ripe. What China Film Group can do is to help introduce it as much as possible so that this film can be successfully released in China.

……

Li Mu went to Warner's editing room and watched the entire film. Basically there were no problems, and minor issues were corrected on the spot.By the way, it was arranged for David to prepare his own company's editing room. He couldn't go to someone else's house every time he edited a film.

All that was left was to discuss the release date with Warner. After some communication, Li Mu convinced Richard to put it on December 12, which happened to be Friday.

Little Miss Sunshine is a children's family comedy that's perfect for a Christmas Eve release.

However, this film, which was nominated for an Oscar and won two awards that year, is not a simple comedy. This film, which looks like a light family comedy, does not convey a simple message. Otherwise, how could the old guys who control Hollywood fall in love with this film? Let it win.

This movie with a simple plot and humorous shooting techniques expresses the most essential and original thinking about life: When ideals and reality deviate, how do we deal with failure?

Or, how should failure and success be defined?

How should we endure when we put in all our efforts and take every step correctly but still get wrong results?

This main line runs through the film and is presented to people in the form of a family comedy.

The edited film has been carefully watched by Warner executives. Many people are very optimistic about this story and want to be nominated for an Oscar. Of course, Li Mu supports it with both hands. This is what he wants, but Warner proposed it earlier than him, which is not the case. He was missing some saliva.

Li Mu clearly felt that Warner paid much more attention to him this time than last time.

Sure enough, conquering others always relies on strength. Capital plus strength is the best method, and Li Mu happens to have both.

There are rules for being nominated for an Oscar. One is the limit on the length of the film.Films nominated for the Academy Awards must be no less than 40 minutes in length and have been publicly screened on 35mm or 70mm film or non-videotape.

The second is the film’s release requirements.Films nominated for the Academy Awards must have been screened in designated commercial theaters in Los Angeles, and their release time must be within one calendar year before the awards ceremony.

The third is the non-public screening requirement.Films shortlisted for the Oscars are also required to not be released in any media other than theaters within six months of the film's premiere, otherwise they will be ineligible.

Li Mu does not need to worry about this aspect, Warner will handle it. After all, multiple award-winning films are also a good thing for Warner, and the copyright can be sold at a higher price.

Li Mu has to pay anyway.

Before leaving Warner, Richard specifically warned:

"Mr. Li Mu, don't forget the premiere. As a director, you have to attend. Do you need Warner to help you arrange your female companion?"

"Emm, thank you, no need for now, I will contact you if you need me, Mr. Richard." Li Mu thought for a while and replied.

……

"My junior brother is really amazing!" Brother Chen Kai said slowly while reading the newspaper at home.

"I'm not from your directing major, but from the acting major. Don't put money on your face." Chen Hong looked at her husband without the slightest politeness. "You, Nortel, are really weird. The senior directors are often from other departments, but not from the directing department."

Brother Chen Kai pursed his lips but didn't answer. He really couldn't answer. This was really strange.

……

"Thunder, have you found the information?"

"Brother, I found it." Wang Zhonglei handed over a stack of A4 paper. The word Li Mu appeared in many places on the paper.

"By the way, what is Xiaogang doing recently?"

"Still perfecting the script~"

"By the way, let our Nortel artists contact more people. After all, they are all from the same school."

"Okay, I'll let Wang Jinghua give the orders."

……

As the release date gets closer, the promotion of "Hero" has gradually become more intense, with various promotional posters all over the streets.

"Hero" can achieve a box office breakthrough, on the one hand, it is Lao Mouzi, who is a top director well-known at home and abroad. On the other hand, the new picture promotion is in place. "Hero" completely abandons the traditional approach, from beginning to end, from beginning to end, Publicity, planning and distribution are all handled by New Picture Company.

In order to ensure the success of future distribution, New Picture Company has conducted comprehensive reports on the planning, shooting and production of the film from the beginning.

New Picture Company is well aware of the magic of hunger marketing and has made great efforts in publicity and reporting.

Li Mu was thinking about future plans as he walked. After all, the road has to be walked step by step. He has made a good start. The only thing left is to lay a good foundation, become a top distributor, and build a pan-entertainment media giant with movies as the core.

It seems that the domestic layout will be accelerated. The company needs to find someone to register it first to avoid subsequent problems.

"Yawen, come out to the restaurant. I'll wait for you at the door." After saying that, he hung up the phone.

According to Li Mu's understanding of Zhu Yawen, he must not have eaten at this point, and he probably didn't know where in the school he was looking at the girl's thighs.

The two finished their dinner and returned to the dormitory.

Li Mu started the copycat mode again. After all, for the sake of a great cause, copying cannot stop. He must first register everything that can be registered.

"Jia Jingwen is so beautiful." These guys in the dormitory are studying the girls in various crews. After all, in the boys' dormitory, there is nothing else but studying this.

At this time, Jia Jingwen had already gained a lot of popularity because of "Flying Dragon in the Sky" and "The Emperor of Han Dynasty".

"It's okay, Zhou Zhiruo is more optimistic." Li Mu said casually.

"You said Gao Yuanyuan, right? It looks like she is. How do you know? You won't be fine just watching this," Luo Jin joked.

"I also read the newspaper." Li Mu broke into a cold sweat. He couldn't say that he knew about it in the previous life.At this time, Gao Yuanyuan was not well-known in the mainland, and not many people knew about it.

"Who do you think is the prettiest in our class?" The smell of gossip suddenly came from the dormitory.

"Liu Yifei!" the animals said in unison.

"Except Liu Yifei?"

"It's still Liu Yifei."

Li Mu added without hesitation.

……

At around [-] o'clock in the evening, just as Li Muchang was getting ready to go to bed, a message with a kitten's avatar came on his phone.

He smiled. Who else could have this avatar besides a fairy? The recent plan to accompany and chat with him was very successful, and it has gradually become a habit.

[Makiko, what are you doing? 】——crystal kitten
