China Entertainment Mythology 2004

Chapter 356: Xun Meng’s achievements continue to soar!

"Actually, I quite liked the character Chen Jinshui in the first few episodes, but why has he become like this now? He is so stubborn, he must let Chen Jianghe be his son-in-law. Luo Yuzhu is such a good person, I feel so sorry for him. Yin Tao for one second.”

"It's actually true from Chen Jinshui's point of view. When Chen Jianghe was still very young, Chen Jinshui said in front of the whole village that Chen Jianghe was his son-in-law. As a result, he raised the child, and then I passed on my skills to him and saw that Chen Jianghe was promising, but then Luo Yuzhu came and the longing for him for so many years was gone. Who wouldn’t be angry if this matter was left to him? We think he is stubborn, that’s because we all stand with God perspective.”

With the broadcast of the series, the popularity of "Chicken Feathers Flying to the Sky" is becoming more and more popular. Many viewers who have not watched TV series for many years have developed the habit of staying in front of the TV at eight o'clock every night because of this series. Habit.

But the next plot made many viewers angry.

Luo Yuzhu lost Chen Jianghe's money, which was actually the whole village's money, because of his gambling father. Chen Jinshui forced Chen Jianghe to marry Qiaogu, but it turned out that the person Qiaogu really liked was Chen Daguang from the same village.

Many viewers feel that since Qiaogu likes Chen Daguang, then Chen Jinshui should accept Luo Yuzhu next, right?
As a result, Qiaogu and Chen Daguang hugged Chen Jianghe before they eloped, and they happened to be seen by Luo Yuzhu who came to find Chen Jianghe. Now the misunderstanding was huge, and Luo Yuzhu left sadly.

Now many viewers can't accept it.

"The TV series is very good, I admit it, but let's not be so stupid, okay? Luo Yuzhu has to see Qiaogu hug him before eloping, right? Screenwriter, can't you just stagger the two times? It makes me so angry. Got it!"

Some people are very concerned about this kind of plot that deliberately creates misunderstandings between the male and female protagonists, but at the same time, there are also many viewers who just like this kind of plot. If no one really likes this kind of routine, then why are so many screenwriters making it up like this?

So the audience who didn't mind this kind of plot started to make fun of it.

"Stagger the time between the hug and the time when Luo Yuzhu comes to the door? Do you think it is necessary for a girl to elope to hug her brother? No? Let me tell you this, if it wasn't for Luo Yuzhu to see it, then there would be no need for it at all. There won’t be a hug scene. An’an, it’s only been a few episodes. If the hero and heroine have lovers and get married so soon, how will it be played later?”

"It's just like the previous performance. Two people live in a small courtyard. Although they are not married yet, they live like a real couple. It's very warm and makes people feel naturally comfortable after watching it. But in the end, it has to be... The misunderstanding came out.”

"I think it's pretty good. Also, it's just a TV series. Don't be so glass-hearted. I think the plot of Luo Yuzhu and Chen Jianghe's temporary separation is good. TV series should have some conflicts, otherwise it will be too bland."

When it was originally broadcast here, although netizens were a little dissatisfied with the plot, the controversy was not huge. After all, which TV series has no misunderstandings?
But as soon as the next plot came out, the Internet exploded.

Luo Yuzhu fainted on the railway tracks and was rescued by railway worker Wang Dashan.

When they saw this, the audience did not realize the seriousness of the problem at all.

Luo Yuzhu had no place to live and wanted to borrow the place where Chen Dashan lived when he was on duty. Seeing that Chen Dashan gave the house to Yuzhu while he lived in a house with air leakage, the audience just thought that Wang Dashan was a good person.

Some netizens even commented on the barrage: "I want to thank you on behalf of Chen Jianghe. Wang Dashan, you are a good person, but Yuzhu only regards you as his brother."

As a result, not long after this joke was sent out, the plot continued. Luo Yuzhu misunderstood that Chen Jianghe and Qiao Gu were married and asked Wang Dashan to marry her.

Now the vast majority of the audience was shocked. Even those who used to say that others had a glassy heart and thought it would be good for Chen Jianghe and Luo Yuzhu to be separated for a while due to a misunderstanding now broke their defenses together.

"Don't tell me that Luo Yuzhu is really going to marry someone else, right? Who is the screenwriter? I'm going to hand him the blade!"

"Eh? I remember, didn't you vow before that it would be good for the two of you to separate for a while due to misunderstanding? Why did you suddenly have to send the blade?"

"How the hell did I expect that the screenwriter would be so crazy? Did the screenwriter get kicked in the head by a donkey?"

"Luo Yuzhu won't really get married, right? Chen Jianghe will find someone at the last moment, right?"

"It will definitely happen. Li Mu is not that crazy."

"What's the relationship with Li Mu?"

"The screenwriter of this drama is Li Mu!"

The audience went crazy, and everyone went crazy on Weibo about Aite Li Mu, Aite Yin Tao, and Aite Liu Yifei.

"Sister Fairy, please take action, your Li Mu has become a monster again!"

"Please tell me the spoilers. Did you marry this Wang Dashan in the end? I won't watch the marriage."

Li Mu and Liu Yifei naturally did not reply to netizens' messages, but some netizens just watched the excitement and did not take it too seriously.

"They got married. Not only did they get married, they also gave birth to a baby. From then on, Luo Yuzhu and Wang Dashan lived a happy life without shame."

Netizens were anxious.

"Go to hell!"

Someone defended Li Mu:
"Li Mu is not so heartbroken yet. It is expected that things will turn around later."

However, reality soon hit her face. Luo Yuzhu really married Wang Dashan.Chen Jianghe searched everywhere for the whereabouts of Luo Yuzhu, and even went to the sock factory where Luo Yuzhu lived with her mother when she was a child. As a result, Luo Yuzhu actually married someone else. Not only did she marry someone else, but she also Have a baby soon.

It was not until Luo Yuzhu confirmed that she was pregnant that she happened to meet Qiaogu in the hospital. Only then did she finally resolve the misunderstanding. It turned out that the person who married Qiaogu was not Chen Jianghe, but Chen Daguang.

But it's too late.

What's the use of clearing up the misunderstanding at this time?Luo Yuzhu is almost pregnant!
Countless viewers made crazy complaints about this plot, and the popularity of the TV series continued to increase with the complaints from netizens.

"I swear that after I finish watching this drama, I will watch a drama written by Li Mu and I will be like a dog!"

"Why do I still have to watch this show?"

"I just want to see how many more tricks Li Mu can do in the future!"

……

"Someone wants to send a razor blade to our family."

Liu Yifei said while chatting with Li Mu in the evening.

Li Mu immediately put on a righteous face: "If anyone dares to touch my wife, I will risk my life with him!"

"Who said someone wants to hurt me?" Liu Yifei corrected Li Mu, "They are sending you blades. If they want to hurt me, they are looking for you, not me."

Li Mu nodded solemnly and said with emotion: "That's right. I, Li Mu, have committed a heinous crime. I actually married the goddess in the eyes of countless netizens, their fairy sister. It's normal for them to want to send me blades. This is what I deserve. "

Liu Yifei punched Li Mu angrily: "Stop talking nonsense. I'm not a goddess. I'm just a psychopath at best."

Li Mu said: "Then I usually have to go to the mental hospital more often."

"Why?" Liu Yifei asked.

Li Mu said: "Let me see if I can meet a few more beautiful lunatics like you."

Upon hearing this, Liu Yifei punched Li Mu again.

"The audience seems to be quite controversial about this plot." Liu Yifei added.

Li Mu nodded: "It's normal to be controversial. Most men won't like this plot."

Liu Yifei asked curiously: "Then why do you still have to write like this?"

Li Mu choked and said, "I can't control it. This is how the plot develops, and there's nothing I can do about it."

Liu Yifei suddenly thought that she had heard somewhere that once a writer conceives a character, the character comes to life. What the character does or does not do is out of the author's control. It seems that only very powerful writers can do that. If you have this kind of trouble, maybe your husband has already reached this state.

"What are you looking at me for?" Li Mu asked Liu Yifei.

Liu Yifei sighed: "Husband, you are so amazing."

Li Mu was a little confused. He just lamented that he was just a copycat. He would most likely copy the original plot into whatever it was. He couldn't control the development of the plot because he was a copycat. Why did this become such a big deal in Liu Yifei's eyes? So awesome?

Where did this begin?

If she said this in the middle of the night, Li Mu wouldn't be confused, but he didn't do anything in broad daylight.

……

"Does the name "Journey to the West 3D" need to be changed?"

"The three words 'Journey to the West' should still be retained, but you can add a colon after them."

"Like Batman Begins?"

"more or less."

"Then what do you add after the colon?"

"I think the Monkey King should be given more prominence."

"How about "Journey to the West: Return of the Monkey King"? This is more in line with the theme of our movie."

"I think it's better to call it "Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage". I think it would be better this way."

"What about "Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage"?"

"Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage... Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage, I think it's great, let's call it this."

"We finally decided on a name. This is our biggest achievement today."

……

Manwu Animation Studio, Beijing base, a conference room.Director Tian Xiaopeng and his team have been promoting the Journey to the West-themed animated film that he has been planning for many years. It has been confirmed that director Tian Xiaopeng will personally invest 3000 million yuan, and Li Mu will be responsible for the rest.

While some of the team members went to the bathroom and those who wanted to smoke went outside to smoke, director Tian Xiaopeng was still concentrating on a series of details about this new animated film.

……

Meanwhile, outside the corridor.

Several team members were smoking and chatting about "Coco," which has been released for a full month and has been officially postponed.

"Our director Tian is really a person who does big things. Now that "Coco" has become so popular, the box office seems to have exceeded 30 billion, right? But when you look at our director Tian, ​​it seems that this matter has nothing to do with him. I don’t usually see him mention it, and he can adjust his mentality so quickly and devote himself to new projects.”

"That's so right. Director Tian is really calm and not afraid of your jokes. If the director of "Coco" was not Director Li and Director Tian, ​​but Director Li and me, then I guess now It just floated to the sky. Just kidding! It grossed more than 30 billion at the domestic box office within one month of its release, and it was even better at the overseas box office. If my director's work is so awesome, I will dare to look at people with my nostrils in the future."

"Hahahaha, you can barely use your nostrils to look at people, but don't use your nostrils to walk, otherwise you will fall down sooner or later."

"If my work is really that good, then even if I lose my front teeth, I still have to use my nostrils to see the road!"

"Look at how hopeless you are."

"Don't talk about me either. If you are so awesome, you might be even more exaggerated than what I just said."

"By the way, how much do you think the global box office of "Coco" is now? It should be seven or eight billion US dollars, right?"

"It may be more than that. The domestic box office alone is quite a lot, maybe four to five billion US dollars."

"I said, why are we guessing here? Can't we just check it online?"

"Let me do it!"

A fat man wearing glasses volunteered at this time.

Then the fat man opened his mobile phone with everyone watching, and entered the search keywords with everyone's curious eyes.

"The latest global box office of 'Coco.'"

Click Search.

"Any results?"

the person next to him asked.

The fat man's eyelids twitched. He saw a result that was very consistent with the question he just searched for, but he couldn't believe the number on the result. He always felt that the speed shouldn't be so fast.

I saw a result in the fifth line that read: "The global box office has officially exceeded the US$10 billion mark. "Coco" has allowed the world to see the rapid improvement of China's animation production level."

"Has it exceeded 10 billion US dollars?"

"Is this too fast?"

"It ranks 26th in global film history, scary!"

"What's even scarier is that this movie hasn't been officially released yet!"

"My grass!"

"what happened?"

"It was previously rumored that director Li Mu had said that there were three goals for the release of "Coco" - to score 9 points on Douban, to break 10 billion in global box office, and to win an Oscar. Later, director Li Mu refuted the rumor and said that he never said that That's the case, but he feels that Coco has the ability to accomplish two of those three things."

"Almost everyone on the Internet knows about this."

"Now director Li Mu has fully realized what he said before. "Coco" has a Douban score of 9.4, and now it has exceeded the $10 billion box office mark. Two of the three are completed!"

"If you say you'll finish two, you'll finish two. Accurate."

"I don't think so."

"how?"

“Who knows if ‘Coco’ will stand out at the Oscars next year.”

"If this is all possible, it would be too awesome. Others boasted that they were awesome, but in the end they were not as awesome as Director Li Mu!"

……

Next, several people carefully studied the post that reported that "Coco" exceeded 10 billion US dollars. The post contained the detailed box office data of "Coco" as of the time of publication.

The domestic box office was 34.97 billion, equivalent to about 5.38 million U.S. dollars.

The North American portion of overseas box office totaled US$2.03 million.

The overseas box office outside of North America totaled US$3.751 million.

The total global box office (as of press time) is US$10.92 billion.

……

After finishing his cigarette and returning to the conference room, Director Tian Xiaopeng cleared his throat. Before he could speak, those few people were the first to applaud.

clap clap clap...

Tian Xiaopeng and the team members who had not gone out just now were all stunned by the inexplicable applause.

"I said what the hell are you doing?"

"Scare me."

"Whose wife gave birth or something?"

The fat man wearing glasses opened his mouth to congratulate Director Tian Xiaopeng and said: "We were just idle outside and checked the latest box office of "Coco". What do you think, director?"

"How is it?" Tian Xiaopeng asked.

Although his thoughts have now turned to the latest Journey to the West theme animation, this does not mean that he does not care about the box office of "Coco". After all, "Coco" took more than two years to produce. For a work created over time, in the director column at the beginning of the film, besides director Li Mu, there is also Tian Xiaopeng.

In fact, he himself also often checks the latest box office data of the movie, and occasionally reads the comments of fans, but he is not as diligent as before in the past two days.

But Fatty and the others didn't need to tell him, he probably guessed what was going on, but even if he guessed it, he would still feel nervous and excited.

"The global box office of "Coco" has officially exceeded the US$10 billion mark!" At this time, the fat man finally said.

Sure enough!

Although Director Tian Xiaopeng had guessed the answer in advance, he couldn't help but smile when the result was announced. Others in the conference room also applauded after being stunned for a brief moment. In the end, Director Tian Xiaopeng also Applaud along with everyone.

"This will break $10 billion?"

"Amazing."

"Congratulations to the director."

"I hope our "The Return of the Great Sage" will also have a good result."

……

The outside world reacted greatly to the fact that the global box office of "Coco" exceeded the $10 billion mark.

If the success of "Frozen" can be said to be due to luck and prediction that the success of "Frozen" cannot be replicated, then the success of "Coco" clearly tells everyone: " Look, it’s true that the level of Manwu comics is not inferior to that of Hollywood. There is no luck, and there is nothing that cannot be copied. There is just another epic success!

Cheng Long, Li Lianjie, Zhang Yimou and others all made congratulatory calls to Li Mu specifically for this, and there were too many congratulation text messages on Li Mu's phone to finish.

……

"Do you think there is really nothing when a person dies? He just doesn't know anything anymore, just like when he falls asleep."

Because of "Coco", Liu Yifei has had a lot of questions about death recently.

Li Mu tapped her nose lightly and said with a smile: "What good things do you want to do? It's just like sleeping. When you die, you are dead. There is nothing left."

"It's so scary." After a while, Liu Yifei said with emotion.

Li Mu pulled Liu Yifei over and put him on his lap, and said: "An ordinary person will be completely forgotten 50 years after his death. After an ordinary person dies, his children and grandchildren will pay homage to him in the first few years. As time goes by, , even if the descendants are still alive in 50 years, they will all become old people. At this time, they themselves can no longer care about it, let alone what happened so long ago? When everyone who has seen him has died, this person has basically returned to dust. When I return home, it’s like I’ve never been in this world before.”

Liu Yifei listened with rapt attention and a little sad. At this time, Li Mu changed his voice and continued, "But we are lucky. Maybe someone will remember us decades or even hundreds of years after our death."

At this moment, Li Mu's cell phone rang suddenly. It was a call from Li Mu's mother, Liu Xiaohui.
