Chapter 264 The Movie Finished, An Unexpected Harvest
The days of shooting are always long.
Xu Mu filmed Sea Pianist abroad, and the hardships involved are beyond ordinary people's comprehension.
Thoughts, language barriers, etc. during the shooting, these are not a big deal.
The point is that there is a huge gap between food abroad and domestic food.
That's right, Xu Mu is not used to foreign food.
Occasionally, Xu Mu went out to restaurants with the domestic staff, and then he reluctantly persisted.
While filming the movie, Xu Mu also learned some piano-related knowledge from the piano teacher.
To be honest, this piano is really hard to learn.
Especially for someone like Xu Mu who has never played the piano before, one can imagine how difficult it is.
Sure enough, mastering a skill is not that easy.
Of course.
There are also good aspects to filming abroad.
Yes, the girls here are beautiful and enthusiastic.
Enthusiastic enough that you can be frank with them and talk about life.
Experience exotic customs that you have never experienced before.
However, Xu Mu has always been a principled person.
For these exotic feelings, he has no intention to understand deeply.
For this reason, he rejected invitations for in-depth exchanges with many foreign ladies and sisters.
Time flies, and it is May.
Xu Mu has been filming Sea Pianist abroad for 3 months.
However, the film was only halfway through filming.
That's right, only half of it was filmed.
No way, the movie Sea Pianist is not a purely commercial movie.
So shooting is very difficult, and the shooting process is naturally much slower.
But as the saying goes, slow work leads to careful work.
As long as the end result is good.
In China, during Xu Mu's absence, the entertainment circle was really in a state of excitement.
Especially those directors and traffic stars, they seem to have ushered in spring.
During Xu Mu's overseas filming for a few months, the trending headlines also returned to normal.
Yes, back to normal.
In the past, when Xu Mu was in China, he would just randomly get on the headlines. It was very difficult for others to get on the headlines.
However, during Xu Mu's absence, many people made headlines again.
Part of the headlines they hype, part of the headlines they pay for.
That's right, Toutiao can be bought again with money!
What good news this is for the entertainment industry!
Because of this, the competition for headline hot searches has also become fierce.
If everyone wants to be in the headlines, it has to work hard. Or, it costs a little money.
However, even so, everyone is still happy.
After all, if you can make headlines and get traffic, that's fine.
And the directors of the movies released on May 1st were even more insane.
There is no competition from Xu Mu's movies, and no competition from Xu Mu's headlines.
The promotion of their movie is also unprecedentedly good.
And the movie box office, compared with before, is also much higher.
For example, director Li Hua of Tianyu, his films took off directly in May 1st.
Single-day box office champion, that is trivial.
The key is that the single-day box office has exceeded 50 million.
This has to make them sigh, how good life is without Xu Mu!
Abroad, the filming site of Sea Pianist.
Very well, rest for ten minutes and prepare for the next shot.
After a shot passed, Xu Mu paused the shooting, ready to let everyone rest for ten minutes before continuing.
During the break, Xu Mu sat in front of the piano again, ready to practice the piano.
Although Xu Mu can guess that after the movie is over, the system will reward him with piano skills.
However, Xu Mu felt that learning slowly was more interesting.
Xu, you're wrong, you played it wrong, let me demonstrate it to you.
After Xu Mu played a simple piece of piano, Richard, the pianist invited by the crew to act as a stand-in, shook his head at Xu Mu and said.
Ah, yes, Mr. Richard, come and play for me.
Xu Mu was taken aback after hearing Richard's words, and then gave up his seat.
Richard was not polite either, he sat down and started playing the piano.
Sure enough, after changing someone, the piano piece that Xu Mu played just now was really different, and it was more than twice as good.
Xu Mu was on the side, studying quietly and humbly.
Because the days of filming abroad are boring, some domestic staff often shoot some foreign videos and send them to domestic friends in order to pass the time.
In addition to showing off, or showing off.
The video of Xu Mu playing the piano and pianist Richard guiding Xu Mu to play the piano just now happened to be filmed by a staff member and sent to friends in China.
The pianist Richard played the piano music live, it's really nice!
After the staff sent it to friends in China, they typed it in immediately.
That's right, let me take a look. A friend of the staff member in China responded to the message.
About five minutes later, the other party sent another message asking: I seem to have seen Xu Mu playing the piano, can he not play the piano?
No, what's wrong?
Well, I thought he could play the piano. After all, what kind of movies he shoots, he knows what skills.
Director Xu doesn't know how to play the piano, he only started to learn how to play the piano when he came to Country Y to make movies.
So this is ah!
After the chat was over, the staff member's friend posted the video on Weibo and short video sites.
After all, these can increase her popularity.
It doesn't matter if this video is not posted, once it is posted, it will go viral all over the Internet.
Because, the majority of netizens saw Xu Mu.
Fuck, Director Xu is learning to play the piano?
Good guy, Xu Mu really doesn't know how to play the piano. I thought he lied to us at the movie launch conference.
The pianist Richard was actually invited to the crew? Is he acting as Xu Mu's piano teacher?
Pianist Richard, who is this man?
A pianist from country Y, although not a world-class pianist, has a good level of piano skills, and is well-known in country Y.
Well, I don't know each other, and I don't care. But I never thought that Xu Mu really can't play the piano.
Ham, it looks like Director Xu won't have the status of a piano master.
It's outrageous, Xu Mu can't play the piano!
This is normal. If Xu Mu can play the piano again, it will be outrageous!
The news that Xu Mu was learning to play the piano quickly became a trending search, and then made headlines.
Although he disappeared from the public eye for nearly 3 months, netizens were still very excited after seeing him.
However, although netizens were very excited to see the news about Xu Mu, those entertainment directors and traffic stars were a little dumbfounded after seeing it.
They didn't expect that a person who was abroad could still make domestic headlines.
The key is just because of the trivial matter of learning to play the piano!
As a result, many people in the entertainment industry quit.
A well-known director: Really, I can't figure it out, what's wrong with the headlines now! Can a matter of learning to play the piano be in the headlines?
If you play well, I won't say a word, and I will give you thumbs up.
However, it is beyond my comprehension that a beginner piano player can get headlines for playing the piano!
A certain traffic star: To be honest, I don't know how many times better than some people at playing the piano. The key point is that I have won prizes in some piano competitions.
Even so, none of the relevant videos of me playing the piano were popular, let alone headlines.
Therefore, I think there is a problem with this headline, and someone must have done something behind the scenes.
And by the way, at this level of playing the piano, I was better than it when I was 5 years old!
A certain musician: Well, I don't comment on the level of this piano playing, but the spirit of learning is still good.
Hehe, of course, it's just that he has a good spirit of learning. However, with the current level of piano, it is estimated that after ten years of practice, there is no way to be on stage.
Those who couldn't understand Xu Mu jumped out one after another, and began to mock and insinuate.
Although they didn't name them, everyone knew they were talking about Xu Mu.
Of course, Xu Mu didn't know about this, after all he was abroad.
However, if he knew, he would definitely feel wronged.
How could he be ridiculed for learning just one piano?
Who did he provoke?
The time came to the end of June.
Finally, after five months, the filming of Sea Pianist is finally over.
On this day, Xu Mu also felt unprecedented ease.
Finally, he can finally return home.
As for the post-production of the movie, Xu Mu plans to return to China to make it.
Of course, before returning to China, Xu Mu also held a wrap-up banquet.
After all, many of the actors are from abroad, and they probably won't have the opportunity to attend the celebration banquet or anything like that.
Therefore, Xu Mu held a movie wrap-up banquet in Country Y.
At the finale banquet.
Richard, thank you for teaching me to play the piano these past few months.
You're welcome, Xu. Go back and practice hard, you can play better.
must!
After thanking the pianist Richard, Xu Mu also officially ended his foreign trip.
July 1st.
Xu Mufei returned to China, and the news of his return was immediately grasped by netizens.
After all, there are still a lot of paparazzi in China, and they stay at the airports of major cities all year round.
As soon as Xu Mu appeared, they caught him right away.
If Xu Mu didn't run so fast, he might have been surrounded there for several hours.
Fortunately, he knows a little kung fu, and his skills are fairly nimble.
Otherwise, the consequences are unpredictable.
After all, he just flew back to China and was exhausted. How could he have the energy to entangle with those paparazzi?
After the news of Xu Mu's return was posted on the Internet, netizens became excited immediately.
Fuck, Director Xu is back, he's finally back!
Yeah, Director Xu, I miss you so much! Don't you know, when you're not around, I suddenly feel so boring!
That's right, I don't know if there are any surprises in Director Xu's new movie this time.
Don't ask for surprises in art films. It would be great if Director Xu himself can bring some surprises.
Hey, when it comes to this, I think of the headlines a few months ago. It's a pity, it's a pity that Xu Missile's piano is so-so.
How do you talk? What is so-so! As long as we are at the level of Xu Missile Piano, it's not in the top class at all!
Good guy, I thought it was a friendly army, but I didn't expect it to be an enemy army!
The news of Xu Mu's return to China quickly became a trending topic.
And the stars in the entertainment circle felt a headache instantly after seeing it.
Because after Xu Mu came back, they knew that the headlines were going to be difficult again!
Stars may just feel a headache, but directors who are preparing to release movies in the summer time will be cracked.
According to their guess, Xu Mu's movie should be released around August in the summer.
At that time, during the film's release, it is estimated that there will be another bloody storm.
No, it was crushed.
You say, can they be happy?
Even those directors urgently began to discuss countermeasures.
Otherwise, it will be miserable when we meet Xu Mu's new movie!
After Xu Mu returned to China, the film was handed over to an acquainted post-production company to start production.
Of course, Xu Mu's requirements for special effects are not that high.
Because, he plans to spend some money on the special effects of the system after the post-production of the film is completed.
After all, the special effects requirements of this movie are actually quite high.
After resting for two days, Xu Mu also started to promote the new movie.
Promote online and offline together.
The investment in this film is as much as 500 million.
Xu Mu spent more than 300 million yuan for filming abroad.
When the initial production of the film is completed, he is also planning to try advanced special effects.
At that time, another 100 million will be spent.
However, the remaining money is more than enough for publicity.
Moreover, now Xu Mu doesn't need to spend too much energy to promote the new movie.
In addition to the Penguin video to help promote, the natural traffic is also considerable.
That's right, Xu Mu's new movie comes with traffic.
After all, he was photographed by Xu Mu!
Although Xu Mu's reputation in the director circle is mediocre now.
However, Xu Mu couldn't hold back his popularity!
Moreover, everyone is also looking forward to what surprise Xu Mu's new movie will bring to everyone.
After all, the plot of the movie came true, which many people have been looking forward to.
On July 25, the preliminary production of Xu Mu's film was completed.
Some basic editing, dubbing, post-production and special effects, etc., are all done.
Of course, if the special effects are done to a high standard, the film is estimated to take another two months to complete.
However, Xu Mu plans to use special effects.
That's right, throwing money at you.
After a little hesitation, Xu Mu still spent 100 million to use advanced special effects.
Not to mention, although Xu Mu felt distressed when spending money, but when experiencing it, the effect was quite nice.
Ding, in view of the fact that players use advanced special effects functions for the first time, they will get early access to some reward functions.
Ding, congratulations to the player for successfully filming and producing the movie Sea Pianist. Some rewards have been distributed, please check.
Ding, congratulations to the player for obtaining the piano skill (master level).
Just when Xu Mu was marveling at the advanced special effects of the system, a familiar electronic notification sound came from his ear.
After hearing the notification tone, Xu Mu was stunned.
what's going on.
Rewards issued in advance?
At this moment, Xu Mu was in a daze.
He didn't expect that spending money would have this benefit.
Sure enough, the system couldn't stand this Yihua!
