Chapter 4 Photo Exposure
"Brother Liu, Brother Liu, come and take a look. This man seems to be from China." An editor from the Imperial City Entertainment Times shouted to the person in charge.

"Let me take a look!" The man called Brother Liu walked over calmly and looked at the Quanying website without being too surprised.This is an entertainment website from New York.

The website's bold black English title clearly reads: "Warner is suspected of reaching a new cooperation intention with Director Nolan."

As for Li Mu, he was ignored. On the one hand, the foreign media really could not find any information about him. After all, the domestic side had not updated the information yet, and the foreign media was even more confused.

No one knew that this person was the real protagonist of this meeting.

"Brother Liu, the director of this movie released by Warner Bros. is Chinese. Come and take a look. I think there is big news." Suddenly another editor shouted loudly.

This is the website for American movie registration. New movies will basically be registered here.

"What movie?" As soon as he finished speaking, several people gathered around and looked at the computer screen.

Name: Little Miss Sunshine (Little Miss Sunshine)

I saw it written very clearly in the director column.

Li Mu (China)
Everyone looked at each other, obviously still a little unbelievable. After all, there are only a handful of people in the country who can make Hollywood movies, let alone direct Hollywood movies.

The website also states the publisher: Warner Bros (Warner Bros. Entertainment), one of the eight major Hollywood studios, this is a Hollywood giant.

Thinking of this, Liu Tianyang thought of the photo on the website just now, and his thoughts suddenly opened up.

"Quickly, take that photo and look for it. The name is Li Mu. This film is most likely that of the man in the photo." Liu Tianyang commanded without hesitation.

"If the bet is successful, the sales of this newspaper will definitely explode, and we are the first to discover it, and the bonus will definitely be huge. Everyone, please be alert and be careful not to reveal this news accidentally. out."

For a time, the entire editorial and news departments of Imperial City Entertainment were frantically looking for someone.

Slowly, not only the Imperial City Entertainment Department found out, but also various entertainment newspapers and periodicals in Magic City Entertainment and Yangcheng Entertainment got wind of it. There is no airtight wall in the world, not to mention that this is the entertainment industry.

……

There was no class in the morning and I just arrived at the classroom.

"Amu, Teacher Huang Lei asked you to come to the office." Zhou Yang shouted at the door.

"Okay!" Li Mu walked out of the class door and walked along the corridor.

The office is in the middle of the third floor, about 30 meters away from the classroom. Huang Lei and Pastor Li have a good relationship.

First of all, Huang Lei can chat with students.

Secondly, after all, Li Mu has experience, and his opinions on many issues and acting are several levels higher than those of his peers, so Huang Lei has great expectations for Li Mu. This is simply a business card for the future.

With a face that is born to act and good understanding and acting skills, he can make a living with only one card. Not to mention Wang Zha, it is still three of two after all.

"Teacher Huang, I'm in." Li Mu knocked on the door and shouted.

When I opened the door, I found that Huang Lei was the only one there. I guess the other teachers had gone out to do some work. Nortel's teachers didn't just teach students. They were often invited to provide guidance, acting, drama, etc. The teachers were still very busy. .

Huang Lei was holding the newspaper at this time, looking at Li Mu walking over and said.

"Sit anywhere and see if this newspaper is about you." After saying that, he handed the newspaper over.

Li Mu took the newspaper and saw the photo at a glance. It happened some time ago. He suddenly understood. He probably knew what was going on, but he didn't care. After all, he didn't intend to hide it forever. Now that he was discovered Just admitted it.

"It's me. The guess above is quite accurate." Li Mu admitted generously and threw the newspaper aside.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk, good boy, you did such a big thing quietly. The last time you asked me for leave, it was just for this." Huang Lei looked at the young man in front of him, feeling a little incredible and a little unbelievable.

"En!" Li Mu nodded.

"It's not a big deal. An investment of 600 million yuan is just a small-budget movie, not an A-level big production."

"Six million dollars is U.S. dollars, why does it sound like 600 when it comes out of your mouth?"

By the way, you studied acting at Nortel. I wouldn’t be that surprised if you said acting. When did you study directing? "Huang Lei is obviously still a little unbelievable.

The same goes for other teachers. After all, you were quietly studying in the Acting Department of Nortel, and suddenly you went to direct a film for 600 million US dollars. It was still in Hollywood and was distributed by Warner. Isn’t this a direct hit? , this is not how the cards are played.

Others haven't released 3 yet, so you just explode first.

"I usually go to the directing department to learn some skills secretly when I have nothing to do. I happened to direct when I got the chance."

Li Mu was a little confused, Huang Lei kept staring at him.

Li Mu has learned all his acting skills in this life, and he is not timid at all.

After all, he can't say that he has traveled from 2023. These are all things he saw in his past life, and the director also learned them in his past life.

However, in the past two months, he has frequently visited the directing department to audit, on the one hand, to integrate the knowledge of Eastern and Western directors, and on the other hand, to cope with situations similar to today.

"No wonder I've seen you go to the directing department from time to time recently. It seems like you stole some lessons from me in the past. I thought you were planning to go to the directing department to become a familiar face so that others would think of you when they get a role later," Huang Lei said jokingly.

"But your matter will probably spread quickly, and the leaders above will probably call soon. Just wait and follow me to Director Zhou to talk about it later. As for the media, you can handle it yourself. They will definitely do it at school. If you can't come in, you'll have to figure it out when you get out." Huang Lei didn't wait for Li Mu to respond, and took him to the school office building.

Although Li Mu didn't like these scenes, after all, he had been a director in his previous life, soliciting investment, and finding actors. He had never experienced anything, and he was already familiar with it. Facing the head of the acting department, Li Mu was so smooth.

Huang Lei was so happy to see the two people in front of him chatting, especially Zhou Liang, that his eyes almost narrowed into a thin line.

Zhou Liang was very clear in his mind. This was definitely a big deal. On a small scale, Nortel had produced a director who could work in Hollywood. On a larger scale, it was a big step forward for the export of Chinese films.

Whether it is for the department or Nortel itself, it feels like it is rimmed with gold.

It won’t be long before the banners are all hung up.

According to his understanding of the leaders above, he would never miss this opportunity.

After all, who doesn’t want to make the school’s brand louder? Let’s not talk about policy support. The quality of students can also be improved a lot. After all, Nortel is not the only one. There are also Shanghai Theater, China Theater...

"Li Mu, if you need to take leave for this kind of thing from now on, don't delay important things, you know." Director Zhou patted Li Mu on the shoulder and said solemnly.This feeling makes me want Li Mu to take more leave and finish the movie quickly.

"Okay, I understand. I have to go over to edit and arrange the distribution in a few days. It will probably take a week." "How can a week be enough? Let me tell you, the movie needs to be polished and polished. Don't Urgent, you must not be impatient. Let's do this. I will give you approval for a month. If it is not enough, come to me then. Don't be impatient. You have to make the movie well, okay?" Zhou Liang said dissatisfied. After all, this is a Hollywood movie. If it weren't for Li Mu's personal matter, he would have wanted to ask teachers from Nortel and alumni to come over and polish it carefully.

……

After coming out of the office, Li Mu looked at the sky. It was already a bit chilly in the imperial capital in November, but the sun was still so bright.

Li Mu came to the class, and on the way back, people kept looking at him secretly, either boldly or furtively.

The article "Didu Entertainment" has sold a lot at least in Didu. As a student of Nortel, I will basically subscribe to these newspapers. After all, it is important to get front-line news. It will not go wrong to pay more attention to the things in the circle.

Li Mu knew it very well, but it was also human nature. When he was nominated for an Oscar, he was much more powerful than he is now. Compared to now, it is nothing. He is still in his freshman year, and he has not yet been able to let go.

If it were someone who had been out and about for a year or two, it would probably be completely different. How could he be so vague and just send a note.

Back in the classroom, I just finished my line class and am currently taking a break after class.

It has to be said that the aesthetics of Nortel students are still much higher than those of ordinary schools. Although it is still the end of 2002, their clothes are still fashionable and their good looks are still a plus.

Standing in twos and threes, even though it is a small class, there are still many small groups that have good fun. Where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and no one is exempt from this.

Like himself, doesn't he play best with Tianxian and Zhu Yawen? He also plays well with those in the dormitory, Zhou Yang and the like. As for his relationship with other people, it's not bad, but it's average. He will say hello and exchange a few words when meeting. , and then it was gone.

There may be opportunities to help in the future, but it will never be like giving roles and fame for no reason.

"Hey, our great director is back!" Zhou Yang was the first to tease, and everyone else basically looked at Li Mu. Some were curious, a little gleaming, and some were jealous...

It would be a lie to say that I am not jealous. After all, we are all of the same age. There was a fairy in front of me, who had finished filming The Family and The Dragon, which was scary enough. Now there is Li Mu, who started directing a Hollywood movie.

Why are you so good? Isn't it because your family has money?

There are many people with this mentality. It has been two months since school started. Although everyone's family is not bad, it is obvious that Liu Yifei and Li Mu's family are still more than one level higher than them.

Apparently some people thought that Li Mu's family had helped.

Li Mu was very clear-minded, but he didn't mind. After all, everyone would soon be on the same level, and people behind him wouldn't be able to see the taillights.

Walking to Zhu Yawen's side, Luo Jin, Zhou Yang and several other roommates were there, as well as Jiang Yiyan, the future bakery proprietress. Li Mu muttered and joked with them.

Li Mu didn't really want to respond positively to this matter. On the one hand, it was not necessary. On the other hand, if he said too much, he felt like he was showing off. He should be more low-key and not high-profile yet.

The less said, the greater the mystery.

In fact, many people know that no matter whether the movie is successful or not, Li Mu will soon be different from them. This gap is inevitable. Unless actors and directors are above the first line, otherwise in the current environment, the director is the best. , is synonymous with resources.

……

In the afternoon, all entertainment newspapers and periodicals were reprinted. After all, this is sales, and this is money. Whoever publishes first will have an advantage. Don't underestimate this advantage, it is often a difference of hundreds of thousands of copies.

"Explosion, Nortel director takes Hollywood by storm again"

"Why is Li Mu from the Nortel Department of Acting able to direct Hollywood movies?"

"Little Miss Sunshine" Nortel director Li Mu comes with a Hollywood masterpiece"

"Nortel's mysterious talent goes to Hollywood"

"A blockbuster is born! The Chinese magic behind the Hollywood miracle"

“With Warner’s support, Nortel students join hands with Hollywood to conquer the world”

"Hollywood director Li Mu, a story that has to be told"

……

It has to be said that the reporters and editors of Entertainment Weekly are really imaginative. Li Mu reads some newspapers with gusto, and even feels that they are the same thing.

……

In the Tianlong crew, on a small chair, a woman wearing white ancient costume was looking down at the lines of the script. Next to her, a tall middle-aged woman was holding a newspaper and reading intently.

"Sissi, is this a classmate of yours?" Liu's mother pointed to the newspaper and pointed at the young man in the photo. She was obviously a little shocked.

"Let me take a look." Liu Yifei put down her lines, took the newspaper, and took a closer look.

"Isn't this Xiao Muzi?" Liu Yifei shouted.

"It's a mess, what a little Muzi, call someone." Liu's mother was obviously not satisfied with this name. After all, Liu Yifei, who had always been a good tutor, still had very high requirements for Liu Yifei.

"We are good friends. Why do we call her that? Xiao Muzi didn't say anything. He was very happy." Liu Yifei pursed her lips, not satisfied with what his mother said about her.

"Okay, okay, you are good friends. I don't care about you. Are the things in the newspaper true?" Mother Liu asked

"Yes, he mentioned it last time when he came to visit the class, but you were not there that day." Liu Yifei was very happy. After all, her good friend was so good, and she felt very proud.

"Yifei, is this your classmate?" Zhang Jizhong came over with a newspaper and asked. He knew that Liu Yifei had just enrolled in Nortel, so he came over to ask immediately.

"Yes, it's the same one we visited last time. You've seen him before."

"Oh, now that I think about it, I have such an impression. It's amazing. I seem to be about the same age as you. Heroes come from young!" Zhang Jizhong said with emotion.

"Xiao Muzi is amazing. I knew it the last time he came to visit the class, (#^.^#)." Liu Yifei said proudly, as if she was the protagonist of the newspaper.

"Oh, really, it looks like you have a good relationship." Zhang Jizhong asked seemingly casually.

"That's right, I'm his good friend." Liu Yifei said with a grin. She looked really good-looking despite her small mouth.

……

[I don’t know what’s going on recently, but I feel like Zhang Dabeard has been treating me a lot better, and the same goes for the crew. Those people who didn’t like to play with me in the past, now occasionally take the initiative to look for me. 】——crystal kitten
[Makiko, when will you come to visit the class? Crying expression. 】——crystal kitten
Li Mu read Liu Yifei's message to him and smiled.
