Chapter 88 What am I wearing under my cloak?

Brother Chen Kai learned that Li Mu and others were coming, and quickly got up with Chen Hong and the actors to greet them.

"Brother, the premiere was well done. It was very impressive." Li Mu looked around and praised.

"I originally planned to organize two more teams, but unfortunately it was not approved." Brother Chen Kai was very proud, but he was still a little dissatisfied in his words.

"Director Li, please come inside, please come inside, it's cold outside!" Chen Hong quickly invited Li Mu in and said hello to Liu Yifei, Zhu Yawen and others.

Zhang Dongjian, Hiroyuki Sanada, Chef Xie, Zhang Baizhi, Liu Ye and others also said hello to Li Mu one by one.

Li Mu was slightly surprised when he saw Zhang Baizhi, who was wearing a red dress with diamonds and no coat on.

Female celebrities really work hard to look good, and they still dress like this in this cold winter.

While walking, Li Mu and Brother Chen Kai were at the front, communicating with each other.

Chen Hong and Liu Yifei were communicating, covering their mouths and laughing softly from time to time.

Zhang Baizhi was also a little surprised when he saw this, and then he felt envious.

Although she didn't know Chen Hong very well, she had been in contact with him for several months on the set of "The Promise".

As the producer of "The Promise", Chen Hong is also the wife of Brother Chen Kai. Her status in the industry can be said to be one of the best in the circle of directors' wives, and ordinary people cannot catch her eye.

When did Zhang Baizhi see her behave like this towards other people?

This is really comparing people to each other, which is really annoying.

Zhang Baizhi turned his gaze to the right. Next to her on the right was Nicholas Tse, who was walking with her, slightly slower than Liu Yifei and others.

As soon as he stepped into the auditorium, Li Mu saw Han Sanping waving to him, indicating to sit here.

"You two go, I'll go to that one." Zhu Yawen pointed to the actors and there were some Zhu Yawen acquaintances.

"Okay, let's go back together later!" Li Mu didn't force it, so he had no choice but to rush there with Liu Yifei.

"Yawen, why don't you come with such a good opportunity?" Zhu Yawen had just sat down, and the people next to him looked at Liu Yifei and Li Mu sitting near Han Sanping with envy on their faces.

Zhu Yawen chuckled and did not respond.

The male actors were okay, the actresses' eyes were slightly red, and they all dreamed of Liu Yifei's position.

"I heard that "The Promise" will be adapted into a musical and will appear on Broadway." Li Mu felt that it was better to say something to make Han Sanping happy now.

"The information is very good. I signed a contract a few days ago." Han Sanping was as excited as a chicken.

"Congratulations, Mr. Han has made a fortune again."

"Little money, little money. How is "The Treasure Hunt" going? When do you plan to release it next year?" Han Sanping felt that Li Mu was his lucky star. Since meeting him, things have gone smoothly and China Film's life has been much better.

"It's coming soon. Production will be completed in January next year. Let's see what the post-production schedule is in a few months."

Han Sanping nodded.

Han Sanping and Li Mu are both big bosses. Directors, heads of various companies, and theaters also gave China Film and Brother Chen Kai face, and there were constant exchanges.

Li Mu didn't have much time to spare during the whole process, and he had to say a few words to everyone who came over.

Watching the movie in the evening, Liu Yifei was very excited, ready to see what this epic blockbuster that had been promoted for several months would look like.

Li Mu had a look of helplessness. Not to mention his previous life, he and Lao Mouzi also watched it in advance in this life. If it was a good movie, Li Mu would just watch it one more time.

Apart from looking at what Zhang Baizhi is wearing under his cloak, there is really nothing to see. It is just like looking at a beautiful picture.

Brother Chen Kai's artistic attainments are indeed top-notch. There is no doubt about this. This is the story.
On the big screen, there are circles of city walls and magnificent palaces.

In front of the hall, there were soldiers in silver-white armor, with spears like a forest and flags fluttering.

On the roof of the palace, Qingcheng played by Zhang Baizhi, with picturesque eyebrows, flaming red lips, and cold eyes: "Does anyone want to see what I am wearing under my cloak?"

Liu Yifei looked confused when she saw this. What is going on?
Some LSPs in the field took a deep breath and whispered.

Brother Chen Kai saw the reaction of the people in the venue and nodded frequently, just for this effect.

For this commercial art blockbuster, it must be me, Brother Chen Kai, who knows what is a selling point and what is a hit.

The film ended with praises from many audiences.

"Big production, the pinnacle of fantasy!"

"The picture is gorgeous, the pinnacle of Chen Kai's work!"

"I was shocked, this is what movies should be like!"

"You can't imagine how beautiful Zhang Baizhi is!"

Under the operation of China Film and Chen Kaige, film critics and various media have praised "The Promise" and cheered for The Promise.

Star-chasing fans are also shouting crazily for their stars.

Brother Chen Kai is very satisfied. He feels that the audience's reaction is very real. This is what his movie should be like.

Some of the moviegoers were whispering.

"Xiaomei, do you understand? If I say I don't understand, will I be made fun of?"

"I understand, don't you understand such a beautiful movie?" Xiaomei's eyes flickered and she looked arrogant.

"Ah Mu, what is the movie about?" Liu Yifei didn't even dare to make a sound, so she whispered to Li Mu in his ear.

"Let's go, go back first." Li Mu looked at the scene and really didn't want to say anything.

Neither the audience, China Film nor Brother Chen Kai looked very sober at this time.

After the movie, Brother Chen Kai and others had to be interviewed. Li Mu really didn't want to waste time here, so he said hello to Brother Chen Kai and left the venue with Liu Yifei and Zhu Yawen.

On the way out of the venue, I met a reporter interviewing an audience member. ""The Promise" is better than I imagined. Especially the bull fight is very shocking. The big scenes are no less than Hollywood blockbusters, and there have been climaxes since then. The visual effects are also very beautiful. The only regret is that the lines are a bit The places are worthy of scrutiny, and there are some dramatic exaggerations that made some parts of the scene laughable."

Li Mu also heard a few words, and he heard the laughter, because he accidentally laughed himself.

The three of them quickly walked back to the car in the cold wind.

Liu Yifei, who walked to the car, dared to say loudly: "Do you understand this movie?"

Liu Yifei looked at Li Mu and then turned to Zhu Yawen.

"Uh." Zhu Yawen didn't know what to say at this time, and finally choked out a sentence.

"You should probably understand it." These words made him feel a little guilty and unsure of himself.

"Your feelings are no different from mine." Li Mu still expressed his feelings.

"Huh?" Liu Yifei always thought that she didn't understand, but she didn't expect that Li Mu, a great director, felt the same as herself.

"This movie doesn't work," Liu Yifei said quietly.

Li Mu nodded: "I guess the evaluation will not be high."

After sending Zhu Yawen back first, Liu Yifei's little face became increasingly red under Zhu Yawen's meaningful gaze.

Li Mu did not hesitate to choose sex over friends and quickly told him to get out.

Without the light bulb, the ambiguity index between the two people skyrocketed. Liu Yifei leaned gently on Li Mu's shoulder, rolled her eyes and said:
"How about each of us say something that we like?" came Liu Yifei's soft voice.

"Okay!" Li Mu nodded.

Liu Yifei: "I like little oranges, they are fat and soft."

Li Mu: "Me too!"

Liu Yifei: "I like to see the sea, it's endless and the sky is blue."

Li Mu: "Me too!"

Liu Yifei: "I like you~"

Li Mu: "Me too!"

"Sissi, your teeth touched my lips." Li Mu said weakly.

Immediately afterwards, Li Mu's wailing sound came.

After returning to the dormitory, Li Mu just took off his coat and was about to take a shower. Zhu Yawen looked at it and asked doubtfully: "Ah Mu, why are your arms so bruised and purple, and you feel like there are teeth marks on them?"

"I chewed it myself." Li Mu didn't dare to tell the truth and quickly slipped away to take a shower.

Chew it yourself?Does Li Mu still have this hobby?
Zhu Yawen's mind was filled with questions.

The next day, Li Mu had flown to South Korea, and the reviews for "The Promise" were rave reviews.

If enough money is stuffed, it will definitely not collapse in the short term at least, Li Mu knows it very well.

Today’s audiences are still easy to fool. Big director + big production + big star + big scene = going to the cinema.

"The Promise" will be officially released in two days, and today it went to Hong Kong to hold its premiere.

Li Mu, who returned to the crew, quickly got into work mode and checked the success of the past few days of filming.

"Director Li, what do you think of "The Promise"? It's good. I've seen good reviews online." Wu Ershan was working at this time and took the opportunity to communicate with Li Mu.

"You'll know after you go back and take a look," Li Mu said after checking the shot, saying there was nothing wrong, and then started shooting again.

The actors all looked like they were trying their best.

Wu Ershan was a little emotional when he saw this scene.

When he took over in the past few days, it was obviously different from when Li Mu was here. Although he cooperated, the gap was just a gap.

The filming work is still in progress in an orderly manner.

When it was released a few days later, "The Promise" set a new first-day box office record.

The box office on the opening day reached 2115 million yuan, breaking the opening day box office record for all Chinese and foreign blockbusters released this year, including "Harry Potter 4".

It broke the opening box office record of 1800 million yuan for "Titanic".

Under the "carpet bombing" of Chen Kaige and many stars, the box office has been rising steadily, breaking the box office records of several Chinese movies, and triggering a series of strange phenomena: In order to watch "The Promise", the entrance of the Imperial China Star Cinema was overcrowded, and three The traffic on the ring was blocked all the way to Anzhen.

Movie ticket scalpers, which have not appeared in Shanghai for a long time, have appeared again. Tickets originally priced at 80 yuan have been sold to 300 yuan and are still in short supply. Many viewers are willing to buy standing tickets, and the theater has no choice but to add 300 seats.

Liu Yifei called Li Mu to inform her.

Li Mu also didn't expect that the bombardment of propaganda would be so exaggerated. Can he really be said to be Brother Chen Kai?
What made Li Mu dumbfounded was that the Koreans attributed all the premiere box office of "The Promise" to Zhang Dongjian.

In this regard, Li Mu just wants to ask, are you also responsible for Zhang Dongjian's fault for the subsequent collapse? If so, then that's fine.

Two days later on Saturday, "The Promise" hit a new single-day box office record of 2 million yuan, breaking the single-day box office record of 2500 million yuan for Zhou Xingchi's "Kung Fu".

At this time, the overall box office of "The Promise" was still booming, and then one day on the 18th, Hu Ge, an unknown freelancer, couldn't resist the temptation after all, under the overwhelming advertising of "The Promise", and walked into the cinema. , prepare to have a glimpse of the style of domestic blockbusters.

Two hours later, he walked out of the cinema. At this time, Hu Ge felt: "It's not good."

Then for some reason, a strong impulse came to Hu Ge's heart: he wanted to change this New Year blockbuster with an investment of more than 3 million.

So, after leaving the theater, Hu Ge spent 5 days writing the script, and then went to full speed to produce the video, "A Murder Caused by a Steamed Bun."

Hu Ge first used "Today's Statement" as a template to introduce the plot, and then began to frequently use golden sentences: "'Ring within a ring' Entertainment City", "Captain Sanada", "The central government has repeatedly issued orders not to default on arrears of wages to migrant workers"... ...These lines are more funny and creative than each other. At the same time, Hu Ge also used RAP, gay (Danmei), advertising and other elements to spoof and deconstruct "The Promise" in an all-round way.

At this time, "The Promise" topped the pack with over 8200 million in its first weekend box office, far exceeding the original record of 6300 million set by Stephen Chow's movie "Kung Fu".
