Chapter 52 Gold Medal Screenwriter?

Katzenberg did not refute this number in the end. Apparently he had already acquiesced, and the rest did not require communication from people at their level.

Li Mu finally asked Katzenberg to take him around DreamWorks Animation. At this time, Li Mu had to admit that the domestic production level still had a long way to go.

Li Mu looked at these equipment and machines, not knowing when his company would reach this point, Li Mu sighed inwardly.

Fortunately, he has already taken the first step. In his previous life, this movie was produced by DreamWorks Animation, featuring Chinese kung fu and pandas, and made money all over the world.

In this life, Li Mu would have a hand in whatever he said.

It's a pity that if you fall behind, you will be beaten. Even if Li Mu wants to do it by himself at this time, he can't achieve this effect.

Li Mu also didn’t expect that on Google search, the popularity of “Super Girl” has reached North America, and the hot search terms have rushed to the Google hot list.

One can imagine how hot it is in the country.

The main reason is that the popularity is so high that parents have found reasons to shirk their responsibilities and reasons for failing to teach their children well.

It's a pity for Zhang Hanyun in the first year.

Li Mu didn't think too much, so he called Lao Mouzi and asked him to introduce him to domestic martial arts instructors.

Li Mu attaches great importance to the movie "Kung Fu Panda". Although it is not produced personally, it is an excellent carrier for spreading Chinese culture.

The previous martial arts instructor was a Frenchman named Rodolfo, a senior animator at DreamWorks and an amateur martial arts master for 20 years. He had practiced karate, taekwondo, and Israeli military fighting techniques, but unfortunately he had never practiced Chinese Kung Fu.

His knowledge about Chinese Kung Fu basically comes from the movies of Bruce Lee, Jackie Chan, and Stephen Chow.

Of course Li Mu would never do this again in this life, otherwise what would be the point of Li Mu striving for dominance.

Lao Mouzi recommended a few to him, both from the mainland and Xiangjiang.

Yu Chenghui, Sun Jiankui, Xiong Xinxin, Zhao Jian, Xu Haofeng, Yan Hua.
Li Mu thought for a long time. Zhao Jian was a bit difficult. Zhang Jizong was Zhang Jizong's right-hand man. He would later film "Blue Blood Sword" with Zhang Jizong. Zhang Jizong might not be willing to let him go.

Li Mu planned to invite two people to perform their respective duties.

One person should focus on martial arts movements, and the other should integrate both martial arts movements and martial arts styles.

For this reason, Li Mu asked Liu Weijuan to investigate their information and urged her to recruit animation talents and speed up the progress.

After working hard all night, we finally settled on two people, Xiong Xinxin and Xu Haofeng.

To avoid long nights and long dreams, Li Mu directly asked Liu Weijuan to start contacting her in the name of Li Mu.

Liu Weijuan was already used to being surprised by her boss, and she probably wouldn't be surprised if he went to space for a tour one day.

Speaking of Xu Haofeng, this man has some connection with Li Mu. Li Mu even calls him senior brother. He graduated from Nortel's directing department.

An all-rounder, Li Mu was somewhat selfish in inviting him this time. His company was short of such talents. It was a double hit.

Li Mu believed that this senior who loved martial arts would never give up such a good opportunity.

As for Xiong Xinxin, Li Mu was attracted by his superb boxing and kicking skills, and his reputation as "Ghost Kick Seven" was well-deserved.

No one can refuse the invitation of Hollywood at this time. The place has been plated with gold, and if nothing else, the value has increased a lot.

Isn't that what celebrities did in previous lives?

On January 2005, 1, Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences President Frank Pierson and actor Adrien Brody announced the 25th Academy Awards at the Samuel Goldwyn Theater in Beverly Hills, California. Academy Award nominees list.

The event that Li Mu was looking forward to has come. Li Mu naturally had his own plans when he chose "The Pursuit of Happiness" to participate in this year's Oscars.

Each Oscar nomination and award is generated by a voting mechanism.

In other words, a bunch of old, white men control the Oscars.

Therefore, the taste of each judge determines the standards of this Oscar.

What's more, Frank Pearson, the chairman of this term, is more interested in drama films. You must know that "The Pursuit of Happyness" has already entered the second place in the ranking of inspirational movies in the United States.

This movie will eventually leave a strong mark in film history. The only regret is that the ending may not be too popular with those artists.

In the previous version of "The Pursuit of Happyness", it failed to meet the taste of the judges, which caused quite a stir on the Internet that year. "The Pursuit of Happiness" was nominated for three major awards: Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Actor.

The biggest winner of this nomination is "The Aviator", with 11 nominations. These old guys really know how to pull off stunts.

But Li Mu has to admit that "The Aviator" is a good movie.

"Finding Neverland" and "Million Dollar Baby" received seven nominations.

Suddenly, the Oscar nomination information spread throughout the Internet.

The respective film lovers are fighting crazily for their own films.

On the other hand, the DVD rental income of "The Pursuit of Happiness" is rising crazily, reaching 2600 million U.S. dollars, and the DVD sales revenue is as high as 3700 million U.S. dollars.

Is this the influence of the Oscars?
No wonder major companies are crazy about public relations, which can really boost sales.

For a time, most North American production companies and celebrities paid attention to this young man from China.

"The Pursuit of Happyness" has earned Warner at least $[-] million. In terms of current DVD rentals and sales, there is still huge room for growth.

According to forecasts by professional companies, North American DVD rental + sales revenue is expected to exceed 1.5 million US dollars.

With this nomination, even North American audiences began to get to know Li Mu.

Li Mu currently has two films in North America. Many viewers found that these two films were excellent, and they all had a good impression of Li Mu for a while.

After all, who wants to watch bad movies?

At this time, Warner took advantage of the situation and launched "High School Musical". Warner had already filmed it and was preparing to release it in March this year.

Li Mu's name was also mentioned in the promotion. After all, he is the screenwriter of this drama and movie. The popularity is not in vain, and Warner's promotion is not stupid.

Li Mu has nothing to do about this. After all, the higher the box office of the movie, the better for him.

At this time, someone discovered that "Batman Begins", which was released in June, also had Li Mu's name and was also the screenwriter.

For a time, Li Mu was in the limelight, and someone searched out everything he had done in the past few years.

From "Little Miss Sunshine", "High School Musical", "Manslaughter" to "The Pursuit of Happyness", there is not a single miss, they are all hits.

When many American viewers saw Li Mu's experience, they went from disbelief to a bit of admiration. This country has always worshiped the strong and yearned for individual heroism.

Nolan and Will Smith also came out to help.

Nolan shouted directly: "Li, he is the most talented young man I have ever seen."

Will Smith incidentally promoted the new movie.

"There is no doubt about Lee's talent. He is a great director and screenwriter. We are about to collaborate on a new movie, which is another great idea and story."

Li Mu was somewhat relieved to see that at least Will Smith didn't stab him in the back and told everyone that he was the director.

Li Mu felt that the word screenwriter at the end was a bit redundant and was really not needed.

He just wants to be the best director.

For a time, Li Mu was successfully promoted to a gold medal screenwriter in the eyes of Hollywood and the audience.

Many people watched Li Mu's "Manslaughter" through the Internet, and even recognized the title of gold medal screenwriter.

Li Mu's young fans are even shouting that they are looking forward to Li Mu's new movie.

Well, this propaganda is really effective.

All of a sudden, major Hollywood companies sent out invitations, inviting Li Mu to write scripts.

By the way, the prices of Li Mu's blacklisted dramas have increased a lot.

Li Mu was also a little bit dumbfounded. He is a director, and now he has become a gold medal screenwriter, but he has not yet landed a director.
