Big names rise

Celebrities cherish their feathers. Apparently Zhang Yibai’s drug use incident caught Xu Jinglei by surprise. Now it is being discussed online and offline. Director Zhang’s previous works may not have had such a sensational effect, but this time it is It really caused a sensation in the entertainment circle, and caused a big discussion about the drug use of celebrities in the entertainment circle. Needless to say, "Star Force Weekly" once again successfully attracted the attention of the entertainment circle, and its sales ushered in a new peak.

Unfortunately, because of frequent activities with Zhang Yibai, Lao Xu was targeted and considered to be extremely suspected of taking drugs. She is also a little busy now. The fact of taking drugs, let alone not participating, she appealed to the media not to add insult to injury and give him a chance of redemption. From her attitude, it can be seen that she is already a bit battered. She is a talented woman and must not bear the stigma of drug use, and the fact In fact, she is indeed not contaminated with drugs, and there are too many interesting things in her life to keep her from being so empty that she relies on white powder to relieve her boredom.

But now she is a little confused. What was not happening at first has become a certainty because of the media's catching wind and shadows. Her explanations on blogs and other channels have become pale. At this time, He Mu Call her, he just came back from Japan, and he just heard about it, He Mu first expressed his absolute trust in Xu Jinglei, and he can clearly see the troubles Xu Jinglei is facing now.

"At this time, you need to do something else to divert the attention of the media, and let the media find out that there are other points in you that can be discovered, so that they will naturally forget about the drug abuse incident. After all, there is nothing real about it, but it is theirs. It’s just speculation.” He Mu gave his opinion.

"what do you mean?"

"Now, through any means, release the news that you and I have teamed up on "Du Lala". You are the director and I am the producer. This news will definitely divert the attention of the media. I believe that I still have a little bit of attraction." He Mu is not conceited.He may not be as good as Xu Jinglei in terms of status now, but in the eyes of the media, a piece of news about He Mu must have a wider audience than Xu Jinglei, and He Mu is the real catalyst for sales.

"Then white him?"

"Drug addiction, it's not drug trafficking. After a while, I will quit the drug addiction, and I will be released after a few days in the detention center. Maybe it can catch up with the filming. If you think he can still be trusted, then he is still the producer of this film." , but I hope he will not participate in the investment of the film, and just be the producer, after all, he has stains on him." He Mu said calmly.

He Mu did not directly reject Zhang Yibai.This moved Xu Jinglei very much. In addition, He Mu herself is also known for her talent. Xu Jinglei, who has always been "reputed" as a collector of talented scholars, has a good impression of He Mu, who is not familiar with her, and feels a lot closer. La's cooperation project seems to be close to success. What Xu Jinglei has to do now is not only to shift the media's attention from drug use to the film through this film project, but also to find a screenwriter to adapt the script.She decided to get involved as a screenwriter herself, as had been the case with several of her previous directorial efforts. [

After returning to China, He Mu and Lao Xu met once to confirm their cooperation relationship and the distribution of rights and interests. After that, He Mu met Zhang Ziyi, another of the four major female roles. After the filming of "Perfect", the post-production did not It was done in Shuimu Forest, but the processing was done by the Korean team and several special effects companies in the mainland. Although it is a romance film, "Perfect" has some special effects requirements.It is a relatively easy and elementary special effects processing method, and a large number of special effects companies in China can complete it. As an investor, He Mu invested in the Xuantian Special Effects Studio established by Ye Xuan, the boyfriend of his former assistant Mi Min. He Mu and Zhang Ziyi worked together. After watching a few clips, Qi Qi praised Xuan Tian's life well.

"Perfect" is Zhang Ziyi's debut as a producer, and now she basically puts her mind on it, just like He Mu was as serious and careful when making "Nightclub".Now that most of the post-production of the film has been completed, Zhang Ziyi has already begun to consider the issue of publicity and distribution.

According to Zhang Ziyi's vision, with her and He Mu's strong appeal, the film is enough to run around during the summer vacation.Moreover, the content of the film is relaxed and leisurely, which is very suitable for young girls to take their boyfriends to the cinema to enjoy.He Mu agrees with Zhang Ziyi's point of view. Although he has never seen the finished film, based on the names of He Mu and Zhang Ziyi alone, there is no need to be afraid of "Perfect" in any schedule, including the big schedule of summer and New Year.

Today, the Lunar New Year holidays are the largest in China, and the summer holidays in July and August are the second largest in the mainland. The capacity is huge, which means that the competition will be fierce.He Mu now knows that the well-known films that will join in the fun in the summer include "Robot Man" directed by Liu Zhenwei, starring Sun Li, etc., Wang Jing's new comedy film "The Secret Agent Zero Dog", the golden partner of Mak Siu-fai and Zhuang Wenqiang In addition to these Chinese-language films, "Eavesdropping" produced, there are also sequels of "Ice Age" and "Harry Potter" that are expected to land in the mainland in the summer. These films are not vegetarian. "Perfect" wants to To kill a bloody road in this schedule, in addition to the factor of its own quality, it also needs to work hard on publicity.

He Mu estimates that "Glass Heart" will be scheduled for September, and "Perfect" will be scheduled for August, so there are still three months before the release date, so the publicity work should start now, and the publicity throughout the three months is enough Let the film focus on the great popularity when it is released, and the current publicity action should not be too big, just make sure that the name of "Perfect" will "show" every few days, and wait until the schedule is confirmed. A month later, we will increase our publicity efforts.

Shuimu Forest is a little weak as a distributor, so He Mu has joined China Film Group. Among the major domestic cinema chains, New Film Federation, Xingmei, and Southern Shinkansen all have shares in China Film Group. With the assistance of this state-owned giant, in these few days The support for the film on the cinema chains will be stronger, and Shuimu Forest will focus on the small and medium-sized theater chains and the theater chains that are not under China Film Group. Of course, it is a bit early to say this, but the cooperative relationship with China Film Group needs to be determined as soon as possible, so that China Film Group can provide for the film. "Perfect" arranges the best schedule.

After chatting with Zhang Ziyi about the work content, He Mu also chatted with her about the upcoming Cannes International Film Festival. He Mu will go with the crew of "Red Cliff" to promote it. It seems that it is not so popular, and there are no active buyers, so they have to take the initiative to find some buyers for the film in Cannes, a large trading market.

Zhang Ziyi is also going to Cannes. The promotion of "Perfect" is secondary, and the most important thing is to be a judge. As one of the most famous Chinese actresses, Zhang Ziyi enjoys a high reputation in the West. The "International Chapter" is not just for fun.

Hearing that Zhang Ziyi was going to be a judge, He Mu immediately joked, "I don't know if you, a judge, can be bribed. One of our company's films participated in the main competition unit, and I don't know if it can be shortlisted to win an award."

Zhang Ziyi first expressed that she was helpless, "I am not a judge of the main competition unit, but a judge of the next short film unit. If it is the main competition unit, you can ask Shu Qi, she is a judge."

He Mu did not expect that Ms. Shu Qi's popularity and influence abroad would be so great that she would be able to serve as a judge for the main competition unit of the Cannes International Film Festival. The number one actress in Taiwan really lived up to her reputation, "It's a pity that I don't know her at all." He Mu said sigh.

Of course, the so-called bribery of the judges is just a joke. He Mu and Zhang Ziyi don’t take it seriously, but Zhang Ziyi is curious when Shuimu Forest will make a movie that can hit Cannes. Although Zhang Ziyi has not been a friend of He Mu for a long time, but I also know that his company has only just started. "Nightclub", which was established and had a good reputation at the box office, was the pioneering work of their company, followed by investment and participation in the production of "Perfect". How could such a movie suddenly appear.

He Mu briefly explained, "You should know the director of this film, Lou Ye, right?"

"Of course, we collaborated on "Purple Butterfly". Did you invest in his film?" Zhang Ziyi was a little surprised. Although she didn't know him for a long time, based on her understanding of He Mu, he probably wouldn't invest in a film that wasn't profitable. She doesn't think that He Mu is greedy for money, but she knows that He Mu understands that her company is too weak and must make profits to ensure the healthy development of the company. No Discussion" director Lou Ye cooperated.

He Mu smiled wryly, "This film was previously invested by Tiger Wolf Film and Television. You also know that Shuimu Forest was born from Tiger Wolf, so this film was later transferred to Shuimu Forest. However, the film has always been directed by Lou Ye and foreign film and television. The agency is working, I have never seen the finished film, and it has been too long, if it wasn’t for this year’s Cannes Film Festival, I would have almost forgotten that the company still has such a literary film, and I don’t know if it will be shortlisted.” Anyway. Don't expect this film to be released in the mainland. If it wins a half-star award in Cannes, at least the overseas sales should be better, and maybe it will earn back the original investment of more than 100 million yuan. [

Zhang Ziyi smiled and shook her head, "I didn't expect you and Director Lou to have such a fate, the opening of Cannes the day after tomorrow, the shortlist should be announced tomorrow at the latest, maybe the shortlist will be announced tonight, pay attention to entertainment News, director Lou's films are not recognized by Chinese people, but they still have a market among foreigners."

"I will accept your auspicious words."

"I heard that you are going to cooperate with Lao Xu?" Zhang Ziyi finally asked this question after holding back for so long. The question was very casual, not so gossip.

He Mu laughed, it seems that the news has already started to spread, and he is not in a hurry to admit it to the outside world, but he did not hide it from Zhang Ziyi, "Yes, Du Lala is Mizuki's new project."

"I'm looking forward to your couple file with Lao Xu." Zhang Ziyi smiled.

"Wait," He Mu was taken aback, "The two of us don't intend to act."
