Shenzhen, a Chaozhou beef hot pot restaurant, Li Mu looks at is slightly thin in front of the Jewish old man, and his heart is a little funny.
Spirberg ’s physical condition was poor at first glance, and his appearance was not good. After a dozen hours of flight, the landing had n’t had enough time to take a break. After waiting at the airport for more than two hours, he flew three times. Hours to Shenzhen, such a high-intensity continuous trek, even the 20-year-old Anne Hathaway can't bear it, and the dark eye circles can't cover the foundation, not to mention Spielberg, who is nearly sixty years old.
Li Mu was also a little surprised by Spielberg ’s efficiency. He was already in his city landing just a few hours after making a phone call. How urgent is the demand, so that he can be so anxious to rotate.
Li Mu did not meet the two separately this time. He knew that Brother Liu was also Spielberg ’s fans, so he called him together.
Spilberg was tired and tired all the way, but his appetite was surprisingly good. He ate a lot of hand-made beef **** and the amount of food was amazing. Anne Hathaway was a little shy all the way. The although was also hungry. Keep calling, but she has been trying to control the amount of food.
Li Mu thought that this hot pot did not fit Anne Hathaway's appetite, and asked her deliberately: "Annie, is this food uncomfortable?"
Anne Hathaway saw that Li Mu actually cared about herself, and she felt a little joy in her heart, and she said with some shyness: "No, it's delicious, but I haven't had enough food."
Li Mu nodded lightly, but she felt a little distressed at the young Anne Hathaway. She must have no way to reject Spielberg, the film ’s older predecessor. After China, I don't know how Spielberg will give her back after such a long journey.
So Li Mu deliberately confused and asked Spielberg: "Director Spielberg, what kind of movie are you going to shoot in China?"
Spielberg had just eaten a handful of beef meatballs and had n’t had time to chew. Hearing this slightly, hastily used a long-spoken remark, saying: "Mr. Li, please call me Stevie in the future Wen, do n’t call me Spielberg every time, we are friends, are n’t we? ”
Li Mu nodded: "OK, Steven."
Spilberg said afterwards: "In fact, I want to make a movie similar to the treasure hunters, which incorporates certain China culture and historical allusions, such as the famous Qin Shihuang."
Li Mu smiled and said: "Steven, should you take the third part of your treasure hunter series?"
"Yeah." Spielberg sighed: "The third part was about ten years ago."
Li Mu asked him: "When is your fourth part going to start?" ’
Spirberg said: "This depends on Paramount's plan, but the overall pace of the Lost and Avatar series is relatively slow, and the fourth part will not be launched until at least 2005."
Li Mu smiled and said: "It would be better to start in advance, so that you do n’t have to make a special film that integrates China culture, just put the fourth part of the treasure hunt in the structure of China culture. Let ’s do it next, what do you think? "
Spilberg said seriously: "To be honest, this is not my decision, so I can't give you a clear statement, but I can communicate with Paramount about what you said. If they are interested, I personally have no problems. "
Li Mu knew in his heart that Spielberg was just talking to himself when he came to China to make a movie, so he deliberately said, "Since this is the case, it would be better for Steven to go back and help me find a line to see if Paramount has I'm not interested in cooperating with my Muye Pictures, I can take Mumu ticket system in depth cooperation with them in the North American market, as long as they are willing to come to China to make a few big production movies, integrate our China thousands of years of civilization into Hollywood movies, let Zhixiao all over the world, I can give some concessions on the issue of cooperative investment and shares. "
The reason why Li Mu said this is to put pressure on Spielberg in two ways:
First, I spoke to you verbally, and cooperated with you with Muying Ticketing system, but you should n’t feel that I have any obligation to you because I said it verbally. I can go back and forth anytime, even if it is Anne Hathaway is useless here;
Second, you do n’t take China to make a movie, fooling me, since you said it, you have to do it, otherwise you do n’t want to take this ticket from system, I would rather use this set of system in exchange Other film and television companies come to China to make movies, and you won't be fooled.
When Spielberg heard this, he was really anxious. Before that, Li Mu said that he had to cooperate with Mucha ticketing system. How to act as if he did n’t say this at once, and he had to help him with Paramount. ? In that case, what did you come to China not far away?
So, Spielberg asked tentatively: "Mr. Li, are you planning to promote Muying ticketing system in North America?"
Li Mu nodded: "This set of system is a huge innovation for the user's movie viewing experience and Cinema box office management. It has greatly promoted the entire film and television industry. It should not be promoted only in the China range, but should be Worldwide promotion. "
Spilberg is not very interested in it. Li Mu does not recognize what he said before, but think about it from another angle. At that time, Li Mu was also mentioned. He did n’t see the actual The product just caters to the sentence. Everyone hasn't really reached an agreement at all. Besides, who will really go to the heart of talking about things?
Thinking of this, Spielberg felt that he could no longer cover up like this, otherwise Li Mu would probably ignore him directly, so he could n’t help but ask: “Mr. Li, you said before, if I ’m interested If yes, we can come together to make this system in North America, I do n’t know what you think of it now? "
Li Mu said good heart, the ink trace finally said the topic for a long time, so he smiled lightly and said: "Steven, I am not in North America, nor is my energy in North America, so if Muying Ticketing system is going to be developed in North America , We must find a reliable partner to do it together, this is beyond doubt. "
Spirberg nodded: "Yes, it requires a trusted partner."
Li Mu said again: "The cooperation I want, although will be reflected at the capital level, but I am not pursuing external capital to reduce my investment. This money is for me or Muye Science and Technology. Say, it's nothing. "
Spilberg continued to nod. The company-level cooperation must be reflected in the capital relationship, such as how much A invested, what percentage of the shares, how much B invested, what percentage of the shares, but to Li Mu He said that even if he is looking for a partner, it is not for the other party to share the investment with him, but he hopes that the other party can help him promote the development of this set of system in the North American market, which he fully understands.
At this time, Li Mu said again: "Hollywood has many very powerful film and television companies, as well as many powerful producers and big names, including you. There are many suitable partners, but how to select, I I have my own set of standards, which is why I rejected Harvey ’s request to meet. The strength, relationship, network and influence of the other party are not the core requirements for me to choose partners. "
Spielberg knew that Li Mu had rejected Harvey ’s request to meet, but he did n’t know why Li Mu had rejected him.
He then asked Li Mu: "Mr. Li, what are your requirements for partners? If it is convenient, you can tell me."
Li Mu smiled slightly and said, "I don't have too high requirements for the strength of the partners. I also said just now that Hollywood has so many big film and television companies, producers and big names, in fact, it is in line with me Requirements. "
Speaking of which, Li Mu turned his head and said, "My core requirement for the partner is whether he can meet my needs at other levels."
"Demands at other levels?" Spielberg asked in surprise: "Which levels do you mean by specifics?"
Li Mu seriously said: "For example, I can come to China to make a movie!"
"Come to China to make a movie ?!" Spielberg surprised looks at Li Mu: "Do you want your partner to come to China to make a movie? What kind of movie?"
Li Mu smiled and said: "There are no restrictions on the subject matter. I hope it is a movie that can be deeply integrated with the culture of China, the history of China, the development of China and the actors of China, so that the world can learn more about the advantages of China, re-understand Understanding the country of China, this kind of thing can not be done by any official or individual, but can be quickly achieved through film and television works. "
Speaking of this, Li Mu surprisingly officially said: "Steven, China's movie industry is still very weak. Whether it is our market size, industry enterprises, or the quality of employees, they are much worse than Hollywood. Some actors do n’t act, or do n’t know how to act at all. Most directors do n’t make movies, most writers do n’t write scripts, and most film and television companies do n’t understand market demand. People like to watch, but even so, they still think they are right. The director feels that he can compete with the Hollywood director. The screenwriter feels that he has control of the audience and market demand. The actors feel that their acting skills are going to break through the sky. How can the industry achieve rapid development? "
"So, in my eyes, Muying Ticketing system is nothing, money is nothing, the international image of China, and the development of the China film and television industry is what I care about most. Who does North America work with? In fact, it is very simple. Who can help in these two areas? I will work with whom. If you are willing to work with me, as long as you promise: you, and the film company in your name At least one movie related to China is opened every year, and a film with a scale of intermediate or above is invested. I will not only give you 20% of the share of system in the North American market. I can also invest 50 in these films related to China. %, And even give you a guarantee, if the movie loses money, all the lost parts will be mine! "
