The next day, Xu Mu was finally awakened by the loud ringing of the mobile phone.

He picked up the phone with some discomfort, and then connected the call in a daze.

"Director Xu, I'm Song Dongdong from Penguin Video. I'm sorry to call you so early. I don't know if I've disturbed you."

The moment the phone was connected, the familiar female voice sounded again.

The caller was Director Song Song from Penguin Video.

"Hi Director Song, what's the matter this morning?"

Originally, Xu Mu wanted to complain, but when he heard that it was Song Dongdong, he forcibly suppressed the unhappiness in his heart.

Nonsense, I just cooperated with him yesterday, how could I not speak well.

"Director Xu, there is something we want to talk to you about. I just wonder if you plan to make a sequel to "Ip Man". If there is such a plan, our company is willing to invest in this movie."

"What?"

Originally, Xu Mu hadn't woken up yet, and his consciousness was still a little fuzzy.

But after listening to Song Dongdong's words, he suddenly became sober.

A sequel to Ip Man?

Your company wants to invest?

Nope.

The box office of the first part of "Ip Man" has hit the street, and you still want to invest in the sequel.

Are you insane?

"Director Xu, our company wants to invest in the filming of the sequel of "Ip Man". I don't know what you think about it."

The other party thought that Xu Mu hadn't heard clearly, so he repeated what he had just said.

This time, Xu Mu understood clearly that the other party really wanted to invest in the filming of "Ip Man 2".

However, "Ip Man 1" has hit the street!

Xu Mu was still a little confused about this.

"Well, you should also know that the first part of "Ip Man" has hit the box office, so I have no plans to shoot the second part for the time being."

Just reached a cooperation with the other party last night, Xu Mu didn't want to cheat the other party here, so he had to tell the truth.

However, he also knew that the other party should also be very aware of this.

So no matter what I say, the result is the same.

"Of course we know this, but it doesn't matter. Now we are talking about the shooting of the sequel of "Ip Man", and we will not talk about the previous issues."

"This, this"

Although the other party didn't care about the previous box office smash, Xu Mu still didn't want to make "Ip Man 2".

how to say.

He failed once, and he didn't want to fail a second time.

"Director Xu, if you have any concerns, you can tell them."

The other party also seemed to hear Xu Mu's hesitation.

"Director Song, let me just say it directly. In fact, I have already written the script of "Ip Man 2", but I am afraid that the movie box office will hit the market again. You know what I mean."

"What, you've already created the script for "Ip Man 2"? That's really great!"

"."

Xu Mu was a little speechless, he didn't know if the other party listened to him seriously.

Why is the other party's focus different from your own?

"That's right, it's already created."

"That's great, I just happen to be able to do this movie together."

"But."

"Director Xu, for this cooperation, our company will invest 10 million yuan to shoot this movie. Of course, the director is still you. In addition to the 1 million director's salary you can get, our company is also going to give you three extra points The box office share.

Of course, the premise of this box office share is that the script is written by you. But now it seems that you can definitely get the box office share, after all, you have already created the movie script. "

Song Dongdong didn't care about Xu Mu's hesitation, but directly talked about their company's conditions.

After hearing this condition, Xu Mu was stunned.

Originally, he wanted to continue to evade, but he swallowed it back abruptly.

One million rewards.

The box office is divided into three points.

Although this condition does not seem very high, but when you think about it carefully, it is very good.

At least, it's pretty good for him who is now in debt of several million.

If he is lucky, after filming "Ip Man 2", he will be able to pay off his debts.

Then, he can fight again.

Thinking of this, Xu Mu's heart suddenly moved.

"Director Song, I want to know, if the box office of the movie is not good, I don't need to bear any compensation."

The heartbeat is the heartbeat, but the problem still needs to be clarified first.

"No, nothing is needed."

"That's fine, then I'm fine."

As long as there is no compensation and there is no risk, Xu Mu thinks it is okay.

However, just when Xu Mu had no problems, Song Dongdong spoke up.

"Director Xu, before shooting the movie, we have a small request, I don't know"

When Song Dongdong said this, his tone finally slowed down.

"any request?"

Xu Mu was a little puzzled, what request made the other party hesitate suddenly.

"Director Xu, you know Wing Chun, right?"

"Ah, this, this is a little bit."

Hearing the other party's question, Xu Mu was even more puzzled.

"It's like this. This is not our plan to shoot the sequel of "Ip Man", but the movie must have some gimmicks. Right now, someone on the Internet is going to challenge you. If you can beat them, Director Xu, then we"

When Song Dongdong of Penguin Video said this, embarrassment was evident in his tone.

"Ah, this."

Hearing the other party's request, Xu Mu was stunned.

Ask me to accept the challenge of the Karate Association.

this.

To be honest, he didn't care about the Karate Association asking him to apologize and challenging himself on Weibo.

These are simply unreasonable demands.

But now, Director Song of Penguin Video wants to accept the challenge and defeat them.

This made Xu Mu very uncomfortable.

After all, he is just a director, not a contestant.

"Director Xu, I know you are hesitant, but these are good for our next filming, I hope you can think about it."

Song Dongdong heard the hesitation in Xu Mu's tone, but she did not give up persuading Xu Mu to accept this challenge.

After all, as long as Xu Mu wins over those from the Karate Association.

Next, the sequel of Ip Man's movie will definitely receive great attention.

At that time, the box office will no longer hit the street like the first one.

"Director Xu, as long as you win them, the box office of our "Ip Man 2" movie will definitely be very high. At that time, your box office share will also be higher, right?"

Seeing that Xu Mu didn't explicitly reject him, Song Dongdong persuaded him further.

This time, she directly grasped the most important point.

That's right, money.

After hearing this, Xu Mu's hesitant heart immediately became firmer.

"Okay, Director Song, I promise you to accept the challenge from the Karate Association."

After thinking twice, Xu Mu still decided to accept the challenge.

After all, as long as the box office of "Ip Man 2" is high, he will get more money.

And the debts he owed can be paid off faster.

He stands up again, and the goal of reaching the pinnacle of life can only continue again.

"That would be great!"

When Song Dongdong heard Xu Mu agree, he immediately cried out excitedly.

After that, the two chatted for a while before hanging up the phone.
