China Entertainment started from Nortel 2002

Chapter 79 This damn sense of substitution

"Are you sure you don't want to go to the University of Southern California for graduate school?" Zhou Liang raised the corners of his mouth slightly. Although his tone was questioning, he couldn't hide his happy and distracted look.

"I'm not going, I'm going to stay here for a few more years." Li Mu said slowly, leaning on the sofa.

"The relationship is great. You are suitable to study for a master's degree in our acting department and become an artist." Zhou Liang immediately opened his mouth.

"Fuck you, he should come to the directing department. You guys have already taken advantage of him as an undergraduate, and yet he still does this." Tian Zhuangzhuang, the quintessence of Chinese culture, blurted out directly.

"Old Tian, ​​be careful, we are all cultural people." Zhou Liang said with a look of disgust.

The corner of Li Mu's mouth twitched slightly. When I first came in, the national quintessence of the two people was opening their mouths.

Now the conversation has changed, are they all cultural people?

"As a graduate student, I'd better switch to directing." Li Mu finally decided.

Tian Zhuangzhuang's expression of surprise was beyond words.

"That's right. You don't need to prepare anything. Just come and read it when the time comes. I guarantee there will be no objection." Tian Zhuangzhuang promised, patting his chest.

Zhou Liang rolled his eyes. Although he was not willing to let Li Mu go to the directing department, he couldn't force it.

Anyway, I am still at Nortel, so this relationship cannot be lost.

"By the way, Yifei's film and television production management." Li Mu thought for a while and thought it would be better to provide Liu Yifei with insurance.

"Okay, we get it."

After finishing at Nortel, Li Mu drove over to China Film.

Han Sanping has urged him on the phone many times these days. Telephone communication is not enough, so he insists on offline communication.

I don't know what went wrong.

Forget it, by the way, I will explain all the follow-up matters clearly, so as to avoid calling every now and then.

Li Mu entered China Film Group as casually as he entered his own company. When the front desk saw that it was Li Mu coming, he quickly and respectfully called Director Li.

In the office, Han Sanping was wearing a black jacket and was pouring tea from a teacup.

Seeing Li Mu coming, he greeted him and poured two cups of tea.

Li Mu was not polite and sat down directly, picked up the tea and smelled it. The fragrance of Mingqian Longjing came to his nostrils.

"This tea is okay, who gave it to me?" Li Mu took a sip, and it tasted similar to the batch of tea collected by Lao Li in Yangcheng.

This tea is not cheap.

Usually Lao Li is reluctant to drink it.

"Like it? Take some back." Han Sanping said generously, ignoring the matter of who gave it to him.

"A gentleman doesn't take what others like, so forget it." Li Mu narrowed his eyes. Han Sanping was probably asking for more investment quota again.

"I heard that the University of Southern California invited you to study here." Han Sanping was still making tea, and the words seemed to be said inadvertently.

"Well, Lucas has put in some effort, but I still don't have to worry about it. Just stay with Nortel."

"Well, it's better now in the United States, but it's still comfortable at home."

"Indeed, it's more comfortable at home." Li Mu agreed with this, and Li Mu also knew Han Sanping's thoughts.

Han Sanping saw that Li Mu still didn't take the initiative to talk about business, so he stopped pretending.

"There's nothing to say about Bangzi CJ Entertainment's movie?"

"That's why you asked me to come here. Mr. Han of Bangzi Market also knows this."

Li Mu slightly raised his index and middle fingers and marked the numbers.

"With a 2% investment share, I estimate the total production cost to be around 6000 million."

"U.S. dollars?" Han Sanping nodded, 6000 million U.S. dollars is a big production.

"RMB!" Li Mu replied angrily. In fact, the production cost has not been determined yet, and Li Mu only made a rough calculation.

"6000 million RMB? It's too little. How about more? After all, you are also a big Hollywood director." Han San commented on the production cost and was a little dissatisfied.

Whenever China Film is short of money, it can afford to invest even if it is doubled.

"China Film Investment Corporation has quite a few directors, big and small, right? Not many of them are making progress. How can they still invest so much money?"

"You don't have to have what others have, but you must have what you have."

"Even if the cost is increased, it won't increase much. It's just a [-]% share anyway." Li Mu doesn't want to do it just for the sake of making a big production. This movie only has this production cost, so he can't get a few more hats to use as expenses.

Han Sanjing had no idea. Anyway, Li Mu had the final say on this matter.

"Okay, you don't need to give the share to anyone this time."

"Why don't you hook up with Mr. Ren from Shanghai Film Group?" Li Mu thought for a moment. Shanghai Film Group's phone calls were almost full of calls to him. He must have said these four words next time. Li Mu had said these four words at least dozens of times.It has to be achieved once.

"Old Ren?" Han Sanping pursed his lips but said nothing.

"Come on, you can think about it yourself. Mr. Ren and I also said hello to this matter. You two can argue." Li Mu threw the blame away. He was given a chance anyway, and what happens in the end is none of his business.

Li Mu patted his butt and left quickly.

Li Mu was already familiar with Liu Yifei's residence, and Liu's mother made an appointment with him for dinner in the evening.

The door was opened comfortably, and Li Mu was a little surprised.

It's not that I wonder why Shu Chang is there, but it's usually Liu Yifei who runs over and opens the door for him.

Why doesn't the sun rise from the east today?

"Where's Sissi?" Li Mu asked casually.

"She? You'll know later." Shu Chang looked a little cunning.

Walking into the living room, there were already several dishes neatly placed on the table.

Liu Xiaoli walked out of the kitchen with a spatula and said quickly:

"Sit anywhere and treat yourself as your own home. Just have two dishes."

"Mom, is this ready?" Liu Yifei's crisp voice came from the kitchen.

Good guy, this is cooking, Li Mu is a little worried.

The dishes cooked by Liu Xiaoli and the dishes cooked by Liu Yifei are two different things. The latter has never touched his fingers.

Shu Chang was holding a fat orange cat and was petting it happily. It was the same cat that Li Mu gave to Liu Yifei before.

He didn't even recognize Li Mu now. He was lying in Shu Chang's arms with his eyes half closed, enjoying himself very much.

Shu Chang seemed to see Li Mu's worry and joked: "Qianqian will just cook a dish. Don't worry, I won't poison you to death."

Li Mu felt a little guilty and his eyes drifted to the side.

After a while, Liu Yifei followed Liu Xiaoli and walked out of the kitchen, holding a plate.

"Ah Mu, this is the dish I cooked." Liu Yifei proudly placed the dish on the table, as if she was waiting for praise.

Liu Xiaoli looked at her daughter in front of her, and the corners of her mouth couldn't help but twitch.

The surface of the dish looks very smooth, white and tender, with black and red juice around it.

Well, this steamed egg has some soy sauce added to it, and it looks like the same thing.

"Sissi, you're awesome, you're so good at steaming." Shu Chang was very considerate and immediately turned on the praise mode.

"No way, no way!" Liu Yifei waved her hand, but her expression was extremely happy, and then turned to look at Li Mu.

Li Mu dug out a piece with his spoon and tasted it carefully.

Well, that’s right, just ordinary steamed eggs.

"Yes, these eggs taste very eggy, and they are very close to those made by aunt." Li Mu told the truth, the eggs must have been beaten less, otherwise it would not have such a rich egg flavor.

There is also a hint of milk. Generally, steamed eggs made in Cantonese hotels will put some milk. This should be Liu Xiaoli's suggestion.

Liu Yifei received a satisfactory answer, and the meal felt much more delicious.

Liu Xiaoli and Shu Chang only tasted the steamed eggs once, and Li Mu basically finished the rest.

After eating, Li Mu and the other three were watching TV series, while Liu Xiaoli was still preparing after-dinner fruits.

Liu Yifei frowned while watching the men and women in the TV series and complained:

"Why is it that in TV dramas, the male protagonist is proficient in all kinds of music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but instead of the beautiful second female lead with a white and rich body, he chooses the second female lead who has no advantages, no special skills, and is not as beautiful as the second female lead? What about the female lead who has a bad family?"

"Because the director didn't let me." Shu Chang said directly without thinking.

Li Mu leaned on the sofa and said:

"The reason is very simple. Because we need the market, will you introduce a female lead in TV?"

"No, I like the second female lead. I feel that the first female lead is very domineering but the male lead is spoiled." Liu Yifei thought for a while and said.

"How could it be possible? We must bring in the first female lead." Shu Chang expressed a different opinion at this time.

"You see, your proportion is too low in reality. 90.00% of girls who are five like girls one."

Li Mu's explanation was easy to understand, and Liu Yifei and Shu Chang understood it after listening to it.

It turns out to be this damn sense of substitution.
