The King of Directors 2000

Chapter 149
February 2002, 2 was the Lantern Festival on the 27th day of the first month. Before it was dark, there were gorgeous fireworks all over Yanjing, and the crackling was very lively.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, Gaolaozhuang in Chongwen District welcomed a table of special guests today.

This is a group of young people, handsome men and beautiful women.

They were Li Shengyao, Zu Feng, Guo Xiaodong, Zhao Yang, Yan Danchen, Sun Li, and Guo Feili.

Gao Laozhuang is a well-known private restaurant in Yanjing, with a table of [-] yuan, which is equivalent to three or four months' wages of ordinary Yanjing people.

Li Shengyao and Chen Xun lived in Qingdao until the tenth day of the lunar new year, and then they went north to Yanjing together.

After "Winter Sonata" was broadcast in the island country, the response was very good. NHK has already purchased the right to broadcast the second round, and they plan to start the second round of broadcast in the evening file the day after tomorrow.

Apart from Zu Feng, Zhao Yang, Yan Danchen, Guo Feili will all fly to the island country to promote.

This is why Guo Feili will appear here at this time.

It was rare for a group of friends to get together, so Li Shengyao specially ordered private dishes to entertain everyone.

At this time, twelve dishes and one soup were already placed on the table.

The chef of this restaurant is very good, all the dishes look very beautiful, under the bright lights, the colors are bright and the aroma is overflowing.

Looking at it makes people feel good.

"Come on, cheers."

Li Shengyao drank tea, while the others drank and raised their glasses to celebrate.

We clinked a few glasses in a row to celebrate the gathering here, to celebrate a happy New Year, to celebrate a happy Lantern Festival, and to celebrate a bright future.

Everyone is in a very good mood, chatting while eating, and the atmosphere is very good.

"Sun Li, you are popular in half the sky now, why don't you respect the director?"

Guo Xiaodong raised his glass, took a sip of wine, and then began to tease.

Because of the popularity of "Full House", Sun Li's popularity has increased rapidly, and most of her fans are young and school students. Although these people don't have much money, they are even more crazy about star chasing.

Sun Li smiled embarrassedly, then raised her glass and came to Li Shengyao, "Director, I respect you."

Li Shengyao nodded and had a drink with Sun Li.

"Come on, don't worry, do more research on how to improve your acting skills."

Sun Li responded, with gratitude in her eyes.

Li Shengyao really didn't lie to her, and still gave her resources.

"The Prince of Ming Dynasty who rented a house" is blind and visible, so it will definitely become popular.

The four main male roles have already gone crazy, but she easily won the female lead. I don't know how many women outside are envious and jealous of her luck.

After the toast, everyone chatted again.

"Winter Sonata" became a big hit, Zhao Yang and Yan Danchen haven't filmed for half a year, and they are advertising endorsements every day, or commercial tailoring, today's island country, tomorrow's Hong Kong Island, Houtianpo Village, and Houtian Shanghai City.

Although he was busy, his purse bulged up slowly.

After Li Shengyao's explanation, Zhao Yang has already seen it. He earned 500 million in half a year. He learned from Li Shengyao and bought a big yard a year ago.

When he moved, he felt it was worth it when he saw the gratified and excited eyes of his parents.

The agent told him that he might go to more and farther places this year, and he said that it doesn't matter, making money first.

Yan Danchen, the heroine, has almost finished her bonus. After going to the island country for promotion this time, she plans to rest for two months before looking for a TV series.

Guo Xiaodong is naturally looking forward to "Signal", while Zu Feng is looking forward to "Stairway to Heaven".

Even Guo Feili has a lot of commercial performances in the new year, and she said that she will fly to Po Village in the Mainland.

Generally speaking, everyone has had a good year in the past, and they also have goals and expectations for the coming year.

They were chatting, and quickly talked about the biggest news in domestic entertainment recently.

That is, Lao Mouzi formed a super lineup and will shoot a super blockbuster.

The name of this movie has not yet been announced, but the cast has already been revealed, including Li Lianjie, Donnie Yen, Liang Chaowei, Zhang Manyu, as well as Chen Daoming and Zhang Ziyi.

Such a luxurious lineup can be said to be unprecedented.

Li Lianjie has already made a name for himself in Hollywood, and it is said that his salary is 800 million US dollars.

And Liang Chaowei and Zhang Manyu are both very popular now, and "In the Mood for Love" in 2000 made the two of them shine overseas.

Leung Chiu Wai won Cannes Best Actor, and this movie also had a box office of 1000 million in the Mainland.Sixth of the year.

The two went to the 2001 Spring Festival Gala together.

Not to mention Chen Daoming and Zhang Ziyi, one is one of the top actors in TV dramas, and the other is the most popular domestic entertainment actress.

It is said that many celebrities wanted to get involved, but Lao Mouzi simply ignored him.

Speaking of it now, not only Guo Xiaodong and Zu Feng are envious of those actors, but even Guo Feili, a native of Po Village, is looking forward to it.

"If I can play a passer-by in it, I am willing to donate my salary for one year."

Guo Xiaodong drank a glass of wine, then shouted.

Everyone laughed, saying that Guo Xiaodong was delusional and that a year's salary was not enough.

Li Shengyao knew the situation of "Heroes" a long time ago, so he was much calmer now.

"Director, how much box office do you think you can get?"

Noticing that Li Shengyao was relatively calm, Guo Xiaodong took the initiative to chat.

"More than 2 million."

Everyone stared wide-eyed, looking at Li Shengyao in puzzlement.

I didn't drink, how can I talk drunk?

It seems that there was no way to count before, and a dime a ticket is not counted.

Since the mainland began to pass theater statistics, the highest box office is "Titanic", which has a total of 6000 million.

This is an imported film, and the highest box office of a mainland film was "Life and Death" in 2000, which was 2000 million.

At other times, even the Chinese New Year movies of Xiaogangpao won the box office championship, but only 4000 to [-] million.

Everyone thinks that no matter how powerful this film is, it is at most the level of "Choice of Life and Death". It is in the early [-] million, can it be [-] million?

Li Shengyao didn't bother to explain, if he said that "Hero" can still earn 5000 million US dollars in North America and win the weekly box office champion, then everyone will be even more surprised.

To be honest, Li Shengyao was excited when he thought of "Hero" earning a lot of money in North America.

Sometimes I can't help but want to make a movie.

Of course he understands that rice should be eaten bite by bite, don't worry, he is still young.

At this time, the sound of fireworks outside exploded with bang bang bang, and hot air was blown into the restaurant.

The dishes on the table seem to be more colorful.

The men like Zhao Yang Zufeng are more handsome, and the women like Yan Danchen and Guo Feili are more beautiful.

Li Shengyao was filled with pride, he clapped his hands, and then said: "Brothers and sisters, I will enter the film industry in at most three years, and then I will take the six of you to shoot my first movie."

"I don't dare to say it is a record, but it will definitely have a voice and momentum, which will make all of you proud and proud of acting in a good movie."

The others were taken aback for a moment, then applauded in unison.

They then raised their glasses and clinked again.

"Director, I'm waiting for your movie."

Guo Xiaodong yelled, and the others followed suit.

Li Shengyao laughed, "We will wait and see."
