Chapter 328 Dad's Cinema

Facing the reporter's question, He Mu replied with a smile, "It's a little far away, and I didn't say hello, but I've already sent a piece of autumn waves with my eyes."

Send a secret! Is He Mu frankly confessing his relationship with Alan? Is this the rhythm of breaking up with Zhang Zilin? A reporter asked boldly, "Are you not afraid of Miss World jealous when you secretly send a secret to Alan? Or you have nothing to do now?"

He Mu said innocently, "How could I send you secretly? I came here clearly. Not only Alan received it, but also Sister Zhiling next to her, Sun Li, Zhou Xun received it."

The reporter was choked by He Mu and said nothing, and another reporter jumped out and asked, "I heard that you are separated from Zhang Zilin now. Is it because you often blatantly sending love to beautiful women, so she is jealous."

"First of all, we are not married yet, so it's normal not to live together. As for the jealousy issue, Zhang Zilin doesn't. One of the selection criteria for Miss World is that you can't be jealous. Don't you know?"

He Mu's serious questioning caused a burst of laughter, and even Zhang Yuqi next to him was amused. His words had clearly explained that his relationship with Zhang Zilin had not been affected. As for whether the reporters believed it or not, let's talk about it.

After accepting several more questions, He Mu took Zhang Yuqi to flash the crowd and rushed back to the capital that night.

After getting off the plane, the two stars He Mu and Zhang Yuqi, as well as all their assistants, put on masks as soon as possible. This time, it was not because they were worried about being discovered by reporters, but to avoid the so-called swine flu.

China is in a plague again. Since the 2003 storm, the epidemic has started to spread again. This time, the so-called "swine flu" has been spread from abroad. There are many cases of death in China. The same is true for foreign countries. This is a popular flu around the world. The infection is very fast and it is very likely caused by pigs.

For this reason, He Mu called his father specifically. He didn't know how the factory at home was. After calling, he found out that his father had actually transferred his own shares in the company. He just completed the procedures two months ago. His father said that fortunately he was moving fast, otherwise it would be miserable. Now the domestic meat food industry is too difficult to do. It is because of this "swine flu", and it has not yet been determined whether it is pork, but the name has been called, which eventually leads to the fact that the pork cannot be sold. The meat products factory and the breeding farm are in big trouble.

"Dad, then you sold the company. What are you doing now? Why don't you come to Beijing to see your grandson?" He Mu said. My mother came to Beijing again after the Chinese New Year. The two one-year-old grandsons were just fun, so she couldn't bear to let go. Now she is already in Beijing.

He Zetao shook his head on the other end of the phone, "I am only in my fifties. It was when I was working in my career, and I had such a large amount of funds. I would not retire. Last time I heard you say that the film industry has great potential, so I invested in and built several cinemas in the provincial capital. Some have started to open business, and some are still under construction. Although it is still under other theaters, I am applying for a theater license and soon I have my own theater chain. I will first go to trouble and make trouble in the provinces of North China on a small scale."

He Mu didn't expect that his sister-in-law said casually that his father actually started a theater business, which was completely unfamiliar to him. "Dad, I understand you want to create a second spring in your career, but can you really clear the tricks in the theater industry? This is very different from meat food!"

Dad He laughed, "You kid now run a film company. Do you really understand all the tricks in movies? I'm afraid it's impossible?"

He Mu was speechless. Indeed, if it were not for Chen Li's strong help, He Mu would be unable to support me. Although He Mu has been in the industry for three or four years, he is no match for Chen Li, a "old man" who has been committed to the film industry for more than ten years behind the scenes. The same is true for He Zetao to open a theater company. "Although I don't understand very much, I can find people who understand the industry to help me manage it. I just need to be responsible for investing money, unblocking relationships, and attracting partners. Naturally, there are a lot of professionals to do business."

He Mu has nothing to say. In terms of business management talent, he is definitely not as good as his father. He can develop from a workshop-style slaughterhouse to a meat product company worth over 100 million yuan later. This is a kind of strength. He Mu has admired his father very much since he was a child. This kind of worship even surpasses his grandfather with great supernatural powers and martial arts. He Mu feels that even a person of his own level can start a film company, and there are also great things. How can my father not do it? What his father needs now is not his own doubts, but his encouragement as his son. "Dad, then I wish you success. When your theater is completed, my film company will rely on you in the future."

He Zetao laughed, "Of course, haha."

"By the way, what's your theater name? Have you thought of your name?" He Mu asked again.

"Think about it," He Zetao said confidently, "In the future, you will hear a very awesome theater chain called Metropolitan Cinema. However, although it is called "Metropolis", our development direction is second- and third-tier cities, and even some developed county-level cities are also the goal we consider to conquer. My think tanks told me that in a few years, whether it is developed or underdeveloped cities, watching movies will become an important way of leisure. Although the benefits are not good now, seizing the market share that is not valued early is of great significance to future development layout."

He Mu nodded, "Your think tank is very insightful. Now, Beijing, Shanghai, Guangzhou and Shenzhen, plus Hangzhou, the market share of big cities such as Tianjin can account for more than half of the total box office, but this ratio has declined in recent years. It can be seen that developing second- and third-tier markets is a major trend. It is better to do it early than to do it late, but it will definitely be unlucky now."

"Yes, yes, that's what they said to me!" He's father said excitedly, as if he had met a soulmate.

This phone call lasted for more than half an hour. In the past, the father and son of the He family talked about their health and He Mu talked about their work. Then his father listened silently, but now the father and son are practitioners in the same industry. There are a lot of topics to talk about, and the distance between father and son seems to have also been brought in.

When He Zetao was talking to his son, he thought that this time he changed careers was really the right one. No matter whether he could become bigger or stronger in the end, he was at least closer to his son. Since his son entered the entertainment industry, even though he was busy, he would call his family to say hello, but the sense of distance also expanded invisibly. Sometimes they couldn't understand what the son said, which was very bad. Even if they forced themselves to read gossip news, they still couldn't talk with their son, but now they can talk about the film industry very easily and happily. Occasionally, some of their own opinions can still be praised by their son, and it seems that they were back to the time when their son admired him when he was a child and looked at his father skillfully killing pigs.

After returning to the capital, the movie "Glass Heart" continued to start. In fact, He Mu and Zhang Yuqi left for a day without delaying anything. Tao Quduo took the crew to film some supporting roles, and then continued to start the main plot after the two leading actors took their place.

There are almost two protagonists in this film, and there are not even a supporting role with an important point, so other characters can be dealt with by just finding a few actors. However, in order to make the film more interesting, Tao Qu and He Mu discuss with He Mu whether they can find some celebrity guest appearances, so that it will not be too thin. So He Mu brought Liu Shishi, Chang Dabao, Tong Liya and other friends in the circle to play several guest roles. He Mu did not dare to invite too big names because he was not big enough. If the supporting role was too dazzling, it would be a bit overwhelming. He Mu was not afraid that his light would be taken away. He just didn't want the highlights of the film to eventually become a guest appearance by big stars, which would lose the sincerity of the film. Of course, if he really had the ability to bring more than a hundred big stars to make guest appearances, he would not care about the sincerity of the film. It would be great if he had money to make money. Unfortunately, he was not Han Sanping.

Then in the previous indoor scene, He Mu and Zhang Yuqi filmed for two more days, and then there was the most difficult and heavy outdoor scene part. Some of them can create an outdoor atmosphere in the studio, while others have to go outside to shoot. In addition to the large number of extras dispatching, this kind of scene is a problem, and now there is another big problem, which is "swine flu".

Now swine flu should be called A type H1n1. Experts say that this influenza virus is extremely contagious and can spread quickly through saliva, so sneezing and coughing are very dangerous. Usually, a person is diagnosed, and people who have come into contact with patients for a period of time must undergo isolation and diagnosis. Therefore, the more dense the place, the more dangerous it is. The crew is such a place with very dense people. They also have to go to more dense places to film, such as on the road during peak hours of get off work, at night bars, etc. Therefore, safety issues must be paid attention to. If there is a case in the crew, then the whole crew will be finished.

For safety reasons, everyone must take their temperature before starting work. If there is any abnormality, they will be sent to the hospital immediately. If they are sure that they are not infected, they can continue to work. Fortunately, they are favored by the goddess of luck. No one in the crew of nearly 100 people was infected. At most, they have a headache and fever, but they are just ordinary colds. They will continue to work after a false alarm.

On the 26th, the crew would have to finish work earlier, because this day was the closing ceremony of the 16th Beijing University Student Film Festival. As the image ambassador of this year's film festival, He Mu was also the nominee for important awards, so he naturally could not be absent.

The venue of the Grand Film Festival Awards Ceremony is located at the Olympic Sports Center, which is very close to He Mu's home. The makeup artist is here to carry out his work. After He Mu took it through, he urged, "Are you okay?"

Zhang Zilin's makeup artist is doing her hair, "Wait, isn't it too early?"

He Mu held her forehead helplessly. The woman was in trouble, but there was no way. Who told her to agree to take her there... (To be continued...)
