tearjerker director

Chapter 2 The Feared Father

"Xiao Yi, to be honest, have you ever participated in their kind of party?" Li Zhenye looked at Li Yi seriously and asked.

Li Yi raised his head, was stunned for a moment, then shook his head with a broken smile and said: "Dad, what are you thinking, although Cheng Xiaohu and I are familiar, it's just that, we don't usually play together! Moreover, there are some things that I will definitely not touch, so don't worry! The most I can do is drink and pick up girls, and I don't do other things!"

"Really?" Li Zhenye was still a little suspicious.

"Really!" Li Yi nodded. It's not that he was quibbling or anything, but that in his memory, even if it was the original him, he really couldn't piss with Cheng Xiaohu's group.

It's not that he was more principled before, but because of the difference in status!

Although it is also the second generation of stars, Cheng Xiaohu is definitely the top of the second generation of stars.

Cheng Hu is the No. [-] Chinese kung fu superstar of this era, and Li Yi's father is not because Li Yi underestimated him. At his peak, he was just a second-tier film and television star.

In fact, before the first movie hit the street, Li Yi thought he was actually a very well-behaved child.

At least among the group of the second generation of stars, they can be regarded as good children.

"Then why did you have such an abnormal reaction just now?" Yi Lingling couldn't help asking.

Li Yi smiled and said: "Because, I thought of the story to be made in the next movie."

"What?" Li Zhenye blurted out in shock.

It's no wonder that Li Zhenye had such a big reaction. Without him, Li Yi went to a movie and it was a mess. At the same time, it can be said that Li Zhenye almost vomited blood. Those old acquaintances, he went to apologize one by one.

Li Yi was hit before, and even said the frustrating words that he would never make a movie again, but Li Zhenye was actually relieved.

But now, Li Yi actually said that he would make another movie, which also killed him.

You must know that the last one had a high starting point in order to allow Li Yi to make his first movie well. Li Zhenye can be said to have risked his old face and invested a large sum of money. Let Li Yi and him become the laughing stock of the circle!
Now Li Yi has regained his confidence, even thinking about the story of the next movie.

He even felt that Li Yi had nothing to do before, which was pretty good, at least better than he wanted to make a new movie!

Then he felt that Yi Lingling kicked him under the table.

Then I heard Yi Lingling smile with a loving mother on her face: "Okay, stand up wherever you fall, don't worry, mom will fully support you! And your father is the same, right, Li Zhenye!"

Li Zhenye looked at Li Yi and then at Yi Lingling's sharp gaze, secretly complaining in his heart, but he said: "That's natural, Xiao Yi, if you can get back together, of course I support your father!"

"Really?" Li Yi looked at his father, but secretly smiled in his heart.

How could he not know that no matter whether it is his father or his mother, neither of them think that Li Yi can really make a good movie, but they can't stand it. They are even more afraid that Li Yi will have nothing to do, and in the end he will become as virtuous as Cheng Xiaohu and his group. Then it's really all over.

"Really! But this time, I don't care about anything else, but the assistant director must listen to me, and I'll find it for you!" Li Zhenye was also scared by his own son.

Li Yi smiled and said: "I listen to my father!"

Li Yi is no longer the original him. The original him has always wanted to prove himself, so, in the first movie, he didn't listen to anyone, and it turned out that he was a king of bombs!
The old man wanted to find a reliable assistant director for himself, so Li Yi was naturally eager.

"Okay, don't go to nightclubs anymore these days. Since you're going to make a movie, then save up the script. When the time comes, your dad will save face and find you a gold medal screenwriter to take a good look at!" Li Zhenye said again .

What else can Li Yi say?Of course he nodded.

Li Zhenye and Yi Lingling were relieved that Li Yi didn't participate in the affairs of Cheng Xiaohu and his gang.

Send away mom and dad.

Li Yi started "watching" that movie!
The movie is not a Chinese movie, but a Smecta movie, and it's not complicated, but Li Yi couldn't help but get red eyes when he saw the back.

To be honest, don't care about Smecta's people, but they do have skills in sensationalism.

Then it was time to start writing the script.

In other words, restore the picture to a piece of paper.

Although Li Yi said that his professional level is not top-notch, his foundation is still very good.

And because it was copying homework according to the film that had already been shot, so it really wasn't too difficult. After all, the movie didn't need anything too complicated.

If ordinary people want to make movies, it is really not an easy task, especially if they want to make theater movies.

But for Li Yi, the second-generation star, it is still relatively easy, especially Li Zhenye, although he doesn't mix well in the entertainment industry, but he has a wide network of contacts. Li Zhenye is familiar with the group of old actors in the Hong Kong circle. very.

When Li Zhenye was an actor, he could only be a second-tier player at best, but his business skills were not bad, and he had some family background, so he didn't need to worry too much about investment.

Of course, it's a different story if it's a big production, but Li Yi watched this movie, it's a low-cost drama, and it wins purely with the plot.

So, it doesn't cost much.

Li Yi actually doesn't have much ambition, but since he has contacts in the entertainment circle of his parents, and his golden fingers seem to be biased towards movies, then naturally becoming a director is the best choice.

As for the box office of this movie, Li Yi didn't think too much about it.

Because this is Smecta's movie, even in his previous life, Li Yi didn't seem to know the box office of this movie.

But this movie, purely from the plot point of view, Li Yi felt that there was something wrong.

A small-budget movie, without any bells and whistles, relies on the plot to win.

However, the background of this movie needs to be changed, but it doesn’t need to be changed too much, because although some bugs may appear if Smecta’s background is changed to Hong Kong Island background, Li Yi feels that there is no Need to nitpick.

Because the key to this movie lies in the word "love"!

It took Li Yi three days to finish the script, which also included some localization modifications.

After checking it, Li Yi nodded. For the first movie, he still pays more attention to it. After all, even if he has parents like Li Zhenye and Yi Lingling, but after all, cheating can be one thing and another thing!
Then, Li Yi called Li Zhenye with one phone call!
"Dad, the script is done!" Li Yi said.

Li Zhenye on the other end of the phone suddenly changed his expression.

How long has it been?The script is out?
He had an extremely bad premonition, what a joke, a fresh script was released in three days, is it really a Chinese cabbage?

Coupled with the lessons learned from the first movie, Li Zhenye is in a bad mood.

But it's not easy for him to question Li Yi. After all, his son finally regained his confidence. As a father, how could he bear to beat him?

"Your good son, you have finished the script!" Li Zhenye said to Yi Lingling with a mournful face.

Yi Lingling was a little annoyed by Li Zhenye's attitude.

"Li Zhenye, what kind of expression do you have? That's your son too. Besides, you don't trust your son so much? It's rare that Xiao Yi has the confidence to be a director and make movies again. We parents don't support him, who will support him? "Yi Lingling said angrily.

Li Zhenye also said angrily: "Support, did I say I don't support it? But he is allowed to prodigal, and I am not allowed to complain? You think I don't want to support him? But three days, three days to make a movie script, Ask yourself, is this reliable?"

"Didn't you say that you want to find a gold medal screenwriter for him to read the script? You should find it for him. If you can't, I'll come and find it!" Of course Yi Lingling also knows that it's really not easy to come up with a movie script in three days. It's reliable, but who told him that it was her son?
"Okay, I'll save my face and ask Lao You to help me take a look!" Li Zhenye took out his mobile phone and called Lao You who he was talking about.

At the same time, You Ningsheng, a famous screenwriter on Hong Kong Island, was drinking tea with some old friends when he received a call from Li Zhenye.

You Ningsheng and Li Zhenye are old friends, so naturally they would not refuse Li Zhenye's request.

After agreeing on the time and place, hang up the phone.

"Who? Li Zhenye?" You Ningsheng's old friend, the famous old green leaf on Hong Kong Island, and a professional Hong Kong policeman, Luo Xian couldn't help asking with a smile.

"Yeah, this old Li is good at everything, but he spoils his son too much." You Ningsheng shook his head and said.

"What? Could it be that his precious son is going to make a movie again?" Luo Xian asked in surprise.

"Yes, no, let me read the script for you!" You Ningsheng said with a wry smile.

"Tsk tsk, with such a luxurious lineup in the last film, he turned out to be completely different in the end. I heard that he was completely devastated after being hit. Why are you making a movie again now?" Luo Xian asked gossipingly.

"It's not that you don't know the latest news. In fact, it's not a bad thing. It's better to make a movie that goes wrong than to suck it up? I guess, Lao Li is also worried that his son will go the same way as Cheng Xiaohu, and wants to find some for him. Let's do it, I can only say that I feel sorry for the parents of the world! How is it? Do you want to go and see together?" You Ningsheng asked with a smile.

"Okay, idle is idle!" Luo Xian said with a smile.

Hong Kong Island, Lee Kee Tea Restaurant!

"Dad, who are you looking for?" Li Yi asked curiously.

"You Ningsheng, your Uncle You hugged you when you were a child, but you may not remember!" Li Zhenye said.

"By the way, there is also Luo Xian, he will also come with your Uncle You. Didn't you say that you have a role as a Hong Kong policeman in this movie? On Hong Kong Island, if you want to talk about a professional actor playing a Hong Kong policeman, he is none other than him! " Li Zhenye said again.

Li Yi doesn't remember that You Ningsheng hugged him when he was a child, but he is indeed familiar with the name You Ningsheng.

Because, this is indeed a veteran screenwriter in Hong Kong Island, and the scripts of many blockbuster movies in Hong Kong Island used to be written by him.

So there is nothing wrong with being called a gold medal screenwriter.

At this time, Li Zhenye stood up suddenly and waved towards the door: "Old You, Lao Luo, this way!"

You Ningsheng's temples are a bit gray, and he wears black-rimmed glasses. He really exudes an air of literati, um, or in other words, he who is engaged in writing work naturally has a distinctive temperament on his body.

What a handsome uncle!
On the other side, the person who came with You Ningsheng didn't seem so distinctive.
