The King of Directors 2000

Chapter 101

At ten o'clock in the morning of the next day, when the sun was high, Li Shengyao stretched his waist, freed the arm that was pressed by Chen Xun, and then got up to make breakfast.

The combination of the younger brother and the older sister is really fierce.

No wonder Yue Lingshan likes Xiao Linzi.

He thought he was excited yesterday, but he didn't expect that Chen Xun was even more excited than him, and his juniors and juniors kept screaming.

There is no other way, I can't let my senior sister look down on me and fight until the early morning.

Now he is still a little impatient, he will cook five eggs and eat later.

At this moment, the phone rang, but it was Zu Feng's call.

"Okay, come here, I'm at home."

Half an hour later, Zu Feng, Guo Xiaodong, and a middle-aged man in his thirties arrived at Li Shengyao's house.

This middle-aged man looks ordinary, but his eyes are very sharp, as if with a blade.

This person is Wang Rui, deputy director of the director department of Yanjing Film Academy.

Li Shengyao had already prepared tea and fruit, and the four of them sat down.

Wang Rui then got straight to the point, hoping that Lee Sing Yew could join the big family of Yenching Film Academy and become a member of the film academy.

"Our school has a lot of stars, where is there a star in the Mainland who is more popular than Zhao Yanzi?"

"More importantly, our school's director department and photography department are full of talents. When you enter Yanjing Film Academy, you will get a lot of help."

The former sentence is correct, but the latter sentence is wrong.

Compared with Shanghai Opera and Central Opera, Yanjing Film Academy does have more talents in the director department and photography department. This is 100% correct.

Poet Chen, Lao Mouzi, and Gu Changwei are really outstanding, and any one of them will crush the relevant talents of the other two schools.

But entering the school, becoming a junior, you can get a lot of help, this is just a dream.

Maybe some insignificant things will help to say a few good words, but when it comes to resources and interests, there is no need to talk about these things, and you still have to rely on yourself.

Of course, compared to Yanjing Drama Academy, Yanjing Film Academy does provide more help.

But since Li Shengyao has already agreed to Yenching Academy of Drama, he will not go back on his word.

"Director Wang, I have agreed to Director Ding of the Drama Academy the day before yesterday, and I have gone through the admission procedures."

"The day before yesterday..."

Wang Rui looked at Li Shengyao with a wry smile, feeling a little uncomfortable.

The director department of Yenching Film Academy is indeed full of talents, but that was more than ten or twenty years ago.

The younger, seemingly most talented Jia Zhangke is not a student of directing, but a student of literature.

Yanjing Film Academy has a strong foundation, but it also needs fresh blood.

Li Shengyao has such achievements at such a young age, and both Zu Feng and Guo Xiaofeng said that Li Shengyao is very capable and wrote and directed by himself.

Such a person is very talented at first glance, and he may be able to win international awards in the future.

But he didn't expect that he missed a move and was two days behind, so he was missed by Yanjing Drama Academy.

But how can such a cheap thing be given to Yanjing Academy of Drama?

"Director Li, it doesn't matter. You can be a student of Yanjing Drama Academy, and you can also be a student of our Yanjing Film Academy. You just need to complete the admission procedures. You don't need to come to our school often, how about it?"

Li Shengyao chuckled and shook his head.

He has always been very trustworthy when he promises to others.

"Director Wang, this is not very good, let's forget it."

To avoid embarrassment, Li Shengyao paused, and then said: "Don't worry, even if I am a student of the Drama Academy, if I look for an actor in the future, I will still go to the Film Academy."

Hearing this, Wang Rui understood what Li Shengyao meant. He felt a little regretful, but he would not lose his composure in front of outsiders.

He sat down and chatted with Li Shengyao with the attitude of communicating with the younger generation.

Wang Rui didn't talk about director issues, he still had to take care of Guo Xiaodong and Zu Feng, mainly talking about actors.

After all, this is Nortel's best achievement at present.

"Our school strongly encourages students to learn while practicing. In addition to Zhao Yanzi and others, there are actually many talents."

Li Shengyao agreed with a smile.

After chatting for a while, Wang Rui couldn't help but said, "Director Li, Zhao Yanzi is so popular now, do you think she can go to Hollywood?"

The reason why he asked this was because he liked Bao Zhangzi.

Zhao Yanzi is really popular in China. At present, the only one who can overwhelm Zhao Yanzi in domestic popularity is Brother Cheng Long.

However, Zhang Ziyi appeared in the Chinese opera. Last year, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" made Zhang Ziyi shine in the beautiful country and won many nominations for awards.

And it was rumored that Brother Cheng Long wanted her to act in his new play.

People are now taking the international route.

At this time, actors who take the international route are naturally more compelling.

Of course, this is actually deceiving people of this era. As a time traveler, Li Shengyao can see clearly that the so-called international superstars, only Big Brother and Li Lianjie have box office appeal.

What other people say sounds nice, but China Entertainment has never had an overseas market for an actress.

Including Zhang Ziyi, Manshen Gonghuang, Fan Bingbing, who later often boasted of being able to prosper abroad, and Li Bingbing, who later acted in several Hollywood dramas.

Let them star in a movie, take the lead alone, don't need well-known male leads, don't need big directors, and they will be very popular in the beautiful country if they can earn more than 200 million US dollars.

Zhang Ziyi has been taking the international route for more than ten years. Apart from finding a foreign boyfriend and contributing a few beach photos, what else has he done?

The "Grandmaster" that made her stand up is not yet Wang Sunglass's movie.

Of course, the friendship is not deep, and Li Shengyao will not burst this bubble.

"It should be possible. She is very strong now and very promising."

Hearing this, Wang Rui was in a great mood, chatted for a while, and then left.

……

At noon, Li Shengyao was watching the script of "Full House" expanded by the company's screenwriter. Chen Xun was sitting next to him, peeling grape skins, and handing him grapes from time to time.

At this moment, the phone rang, and it was Zhao Yang's call.

It turned out that the leader of the Shanghai Theater asked him to ask Li Shengyao one thing, that is, would Li Shengyao want to study in the Department of Directing of the Shanghai Theater? The door, I will go to their school to pick actors in the future, and I will cooperate 100%.

The situation of the director department of Shanghai Opera and the director department of Central Opera is similar. Both have been established for decades, and none of them is famous.

It's embarrassing, it's a dog for North Voltage.

Hence the phone call.

Li Shengyao naturally still refused, he had already rejected Nortel, there was no reason for him to agree to the show.

Zhao Yang didn't say much, saying that he knew.

Li Shengyao hung up the phone, Chen Xun was very proud, she felt that Li Shengyao rejected Nortel and the show because of her.

"Good junior brother, come."

Li Shengyao ate the grapes with his mouth open.

The company's screenwriter has already obtained the outline of the story of "Full House" and the character design of the male protagonist, but the expansion is still not very good, mainly because there are too many coincidences and accidents.

An excellent story should be driven by the characters and produce intersections, not coincidences.

He thought about holding a meeting tomorrow and talking about it.

"You can actually enter the screenwriting department."

"That's natural, tell Director Ding quickly, lest I be robbed by other schools."

Chen Xun was taken aback when he heard the words, then picked up the phone, "Then I will contact the director now."

Li Shengyao laughed, "I'm fooling you, don't worry, I won't go to other schools."
