The superstar starts from the creation camp

Chapter 125 Screening!

"Zhao Xuan's new song is released, and Li Mu arranges the lyrics, music, arrangement, and production."

"Warm fried, the golden song that must be listened to in the healing department, will take you into the world of Zhao Xuan and Li Mu!"

This title is simple!Li Mu said that even TV stations have started to use his "shock style" now?
I have to say that Zhao Xuan's resources are really good. On the night of the show's broadcast, the song "The Farthest Place" started to rampage all the way, reaching the top [-] on the Yuncun New Songs Soaring Chart.

Other major music platforms also have good records. The most interesting point is that although this song is suspected of hitting the charts.

The popularity of the topic has remained at a very high level, and the number of comments in Yuncun has directly rushed to the top [-] in history.

Some netizens were surprised to find that out of the [-] songs with the most comments, [-] were written by Li Mu!
This is terrifying. You must know that Li Mu has only been engaged in creation for two years. His output is not high, but in terms of quality, he has already surpassed many top musicians.

Of course, these are just the gossip of netizens after dinner. What really shocked the entire industry is that Li Mu, an iron cock, actually plucked his hair?
All major music companies were trying to get Li Mu's attention before, but unfortunately, this guy is the boss himself, and if he doesn't let go, no one can do anything about him.

Now that he actually wrote a song for Zhao Xuan, does it mean that the gap has been loosened?

Especially Xu Zhaohua, who was so angry that his nose was crooked, good guy, it's fine if you didn't write to others before, but our relationship is pretty good after all, right?Is it justified not to have a conscience?

Li Mu said: Keke, sorry, the Li Mu convenience store is closed, welcome to visit next time!

"What? When will it open next time?"

"Don't ask, just ask to be determined!"

Through this talk show, some netizens have also become interested in "Crazy Stone". Judging from some anecdotes about the crew that Li Mu said, this movie seems quite interesting.

Of course, there are also many netizens who sneered. After all, "Crazy Stone" has no bright spots in terms of the announced cast. Li Mu does have a certain status in the music world, but in the entertainment industry, he is still a little transparent.

Even many fans who liked him shouted under his Weibo: "Ahem, don't worry about it, come back and make music, the playlist hasn't been updated for several months!"

Anyway, not many people are optimistic about this movie, but there are quite a few people watching it!

Of course, this trip to the capital was rewarding, the film has already entered the review process, and if all goes well, the "Dragon Label" will come down in mid-March.

Another surprise is that "Crazy Stone" signed up for the Beijing College Student Film Festival in April. Of course, the father of Liang Hongfei's family contributed a lot.

According to the old man's words, this play barely caught his eye.

In fact, it makes sense that the original version of "Crazy Stone" was filmed on DV in order to save costs. It is conceivable that the quality of the film is completely based on the script.

Li Mu's version of "Crazy Stone" must be more sophisticated than the original version in terms of production, and also modified some unreasonable parts of the original plot.

In terms of quality, it has surpassed the original!The only thing that needs to be strengthened is publicity!
So it went back to the original point, what should I do if the publicity is not enough?
The college student film festival is naturally a good way of publicity, but the coverage is still not wide enough.

"Shouldn't we wait for the dragon sign to come down, let's hold a large-scale college screening?" An idea suddenly popped up in Li Mu's mind!
"Dianying?" Shi Ran and Liang Hongfei both looked at him suspiciously.

The so-called on-demand screening is actually a fixed-point screening mode used before large-scale screenings to let some audiences have a sneak peek. The history of on-demand screenings in Hollywood can be traced back to the last century, but in China, Zhang Guoshi’s "hero" was the first case. In order to make "Hero" eligible to be nominated for the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, a seven-day screening event was held in Shenzhen.

But in fact, there are not many films that are actually screened in China. To put it bluntly, screening is a double-edged sword. While gaining a lot of exposure, it may also ruin the reputation of a good film. After all, it is hard to say , it is impossible for one movie to satisfy everyone's needs.

Generally speaking, those who have the courage to adopt point-screening are confident in the quality of the film, but there are very few movies that really accumulate word-of-mouth through point-screening and finally explode.

Li Mu suddenly proposed to order screenings, and it was a large-scale screening for colleges and universities, which was really confusing.

"Let me analyze it. Do you think it is right? First of all, we don't have such huge theater resources. It is definitely impossible to do screenings in large-scale theaters. However, the requirements for screenings in colleges and universities are not so harsh. As long as we give up some Profits should be no problem."

Li Mu paused and then said: "Secondly, college students, who have money and leisure, have a higher desire to publicize and share through various channels than office workers. Some movies are first disseminated by college students in a small range before word of mouth ferments. It's on fire."

Among them, the most representative one is "Westward Journey" by Master Xing. The total investment of "Westward Journey" was 6000 million, but the total box office was only 5000 million. It can be said that he lost his bottom pants.

But then "A Westward Journey" became popular in colleges and universities, and even the entire "Westward Journey" series became one of the best IPs in the industry. Not to mention Xingye's later Journey to the West, the director "Liu Zhenwei" just relied on playing around the edges After shooting a lot of bad spicy chicken movies, he still managed to do well in the circle, which shows the status of "Journey to the West" in the minds of post-[-]s and post-[-]s generations.

Seeing that Shi Ran still had reservations, Li Mu couldn't help laughing and said, "Sister Ran, you've seen the sample too, so you should have confidence in this movie!"

Shi Ran couldn't help but see the scene in the play where Mike scolded Jade angrily: "This profiteer" because the rope was tens of centimeters short of reach. At that time, she couldn't stop laughing for a long time. Such scenes are not rare in the play. .

This is a stomach ache enough to make people laugh, but it's not the kind of cheesy comedy piled up with Internet jokes.

"But where do we start?"

Li Mu looked at Liang Hongfei with some malicious intentions: "What do you think?"

Liang Hongfei was also willing to let go, and gritted his teeth: "I can send the film to the Academy of Film and Television for some screening, but just promoting it in one place is useless!"

Li Mu said in a deep voice: "Leave the CUHK to me. For the time being, let's focus on one institution and make it famous. As long as word of mouth is established, other institutions will have the capital to negotiate!"

After the discussion, everyone started to split up. Liang Hongfei took the copy to the capital overnight, and Li Mu was not idle. He returned to CUHK and went around to find the school leader.

"You mean to show a movie in the school auditorium? No, absolutely not. In principle, the school cannot organize such a crowded event!"

Li Mu said in a low voice: "Ahem, this activity can be handed over to the student union to organize it. It doesn't need the school to come forward. It is completely a spontaneous behavior of the students. In addition, the ticket revenue for the screening is divided into [-]% and [-]% for each ticket. , showing two shows a day."

"You, this movie is nothing." The school leader was a little tempted. Of course, this money is a drop in the bucket for the entire CUHK. The key is that this income does not need to be entered into the public account, and it can be used flexibly.
When Li Mu saw that there was something going on, he quickly added fire: "Don't worry, this movie is approved to be screened in official theaters, the content is absolutely fine, and it is also a shortlisted film in the College Student Film Festival, and the plot is absolutely wonderful!"

If you are not shortlisted, just treat it as shortlisted for the time being!The tiger skin of the college student film festival can still be blown away!

"Okay, now that you've said it like this, I want to watch it a little bit. The screening is fine, but the relevant procedures must be completed." The school leader scolded with a smile.

In fact, to put it bluntly, it is thanks to Li Mu's reputation that the school leaders can let go of this matter. What if it was placed before he participated in the singing?Don't even think about it!

If you don't say that you are alive, you can't escape the word fame and wealth!
The matter was settled, and Li Mu also breathed a sigh of relief, as long as the "dragon mark" comes down, the rest will be a matter of course.

"What? A movie screening? How can such a fun thing be missed?" Jiang Tao immediately became interested when he heard it.

Well, these guys really thought that movie promotion is as easy as participating in college club activities!

In mid-March, the release license for "Crazy Stone" finally came down, and Li Mu and several printed leaflets were finally put to use.

"Look, take a look, the most high-quality comedy film in history, rejecting vulgar jokes, the plot promotes jokes, and those who don't laugh throughout the whole process will be rewarded with 1000 yuan in cash!"

Well, Li Mu used the shocking body again, with the familiar formula and familiar taste.

As for the reward of [-] cash?Don't make trouble, how can you prove that you didn't laugh the whole time?

"Hey, isn't that Li Mu? Why are you handing out leaflets?"

"Never mind him, hurry up and take a group photo! This is a rare opportunity!"

The girls are all excited. After all, Li Mu is the most popular boy in CUHK. Not to mention handsome and talented, what do you mean by money?Pooh!How vulgar it is to talk about money!

For the sake of publicity, Li Mu had no choice but to sell his "soul", and cooperated with the various poses of his seniors.

"Ahem, please help to spread the word, this Friday night, the small auditorium, Crazy Stone."

Where there are many girls, there are naturally many boys, and soon a bunch of leaflets are sent out. Fortunately, the girls are quite sensible, and they will leave when their needs are met.

The two games on the first day were half-price tickets, which basically meant making a profit at a loss, but some clever students made a lot of snacks and drinks and sold them at the entrance of the small auditorium, making a small profit.

Li Mu sat in the first row of the small auditorium. At seven o'clock in the evening, the lights were turned off on time, and a beam of light hit the curtain.

The dragon logo pattern in the first four seconds flashes away, and the screen turns. In a small wooden house, a cute little boy is riding a wooden horse, looking at the bright Milky Way in the sky with searching eyes. He shrouded, and gradually, the Trojan horse turned into a silver Pegasus, carrying the little boy and flew into the sky, and finally turned into dots of starlight, the light and shadow dispersed, and the five characters "Muzi Studio" emerged in the Milky Way.

"Wow, this opening animation is very imaginative!"

"Yeah, the white light shines in through the window, does it imply that dreams are shining into reality?"

Li Mu nodded secretly, don't underestimate the opening animation of these few seconds, it cost a full 50!Who said animation can't make money?

"By the way, do you want to set up an animation studio in the future?"

　Ahem, it's three o'clock today, don't ask the duck why, it's just capricious!
