The King of Directors 2000

Chapter 20
This morning, the sky was overcast and it looked like it was going to rain again.

For the crew of "Love Hotel" in Shanghai, the lighting engineer had to use bright lights on the faces of the actors, and the handyman followed behind with a whiteboard.

Li Shengyao sat behind the director's monitor and nodded towards the assistant director, who immediately waved.

"The first shot of the third scene, let's start."

This scene is the first time the male lead makes his debut in the hotel.

I saw a small car quickly approaching the door of the hotel. A short man in a suit pushed the door open, trotted out, and opened the door for the person on the other side.

Except for the hotel doorman, no one paid attention to this man.

He came out of the car, handsome, cold, tall, wearing a pair of glasses, his eyes were indifferent and powerful, his eyes were emotionless, and there seemed to be a smile on the corner of his mouth, but there was a long distance to everyone invisibly.

He then strode to the hotel.

The short man followed immediately and introduced the hotel as he walked.

The people in the hotel quickly noticed him, the women all cast admiring glances, and the men were amazed at this man's aura.

This is not the first appearance of the male number two in the plot. He first appeared in the beautiful country, and this is only the first time he entered the hotel.

The second male number soon met the first female number one, the first female number one was surprised, the second male number smiled back, and then directly asked the first female number one to serve him later.

The tone is firm and confident.

The female number one is a little embarrassed, but the male number two is like no one else. He never cares about other people's opinions. Except for the female number one, everyone else is just leeks waiting to be harvested in his eyes.

Bae Yong Joon of the peninsula version has been full of momentum since the appearance of the beautiful country.

Li Shengyao had no money, so he couldn't shoot the scenes in the beautiful country. He planned to move to Macau to shoot that part.

In his crew, it is the "first" appearance of the second male lead.

He needs Zhao Yang's aura of acting as a money-making machine and treating others like cabbages.

At this moment, Zhao Yang got out of the car, and then strode forward, his eyes were still a little scattered, and he would unconsciously look around from the corner of his eye.

However, his presence was enough. Whether it was a factory worker or an actor, everyone looked at Zhao Yang.

They all thought he was very attractive at this time.

This outfit is still good.

After Li Shengyao called the card, he told Zhao Yang to keep his eyes focused and not to look around.

"Second shot of the third scene, start."

Zhao Yang got out of the car again, strode into the hotel, and met the female number one.

This time he performed much better, and his whole body was shining.

"Zhao Yang, don't speak so fast, speak slowly, don't worry, give people a quiet but powerful feeling."

In order to give Zhao Yang a feeling, Li Shengyao took pictures several times in a row. He would point out Zhao Yang's problems, and his tone was gentle without being harsh.

Compared with others, Li Shengyao had a much better attitude at this time.

Later, Zhao Yang's acting got better and better. Sun Li, who was following Li Shengyao, could not help but say, "You are so handsome."

Li Shengyao nodded and smiled, "Very good, there is progress."

Not only Li Shengyao, but others were also very happy.

The actors have all read the script and know whether this drama will be popular, the key point is the male lead.

The more outstanding the second male lead, the easier it is for this drama to explode.

Zhao Yang was originally an unknown actor, although he was handsome and kind, everyone thought he had a good personality.

But the others didn't have confidence in Li Shengyao's choice of him. They didn't think that Zhao Yang was strong, and they thought that Zhao Yang's salary was cheap.

Now it seems that it is actually difficult to play a character like the second male lead, but Zhao Yang has a better performance.

An hour later, Yan Danchen finished filming the morning scene, and at this time there was still the scene of the second male lead and others.

She pulled up a small stool and sat behind Li Shengyao, staring at the director's monitor.

The tiny screen is fully focused on Zhao Yang, making him look glamorous.

This feeling is even stronger than when we just faced each other.

Yan Danchen's heart was burning, and she realized that maybe this drama could really be popular.

Although Li Shengyao is young, the script he wrote is outstanding, and his ability to direct and cast actors is also very strong.

Thinking of this, she looked at Li Shengyao with a gentler gaze, as if hiding a clear spring.

"Director, this scene was shot really well."

Li Shengyao stared at the monitor and ignored Yan Danchen.

She was not angry, Pidiandian took Li Shengyao's thermos and made tea for him.

Two hours later, the shooting in the morning ended. Zhao Yang sat on a small bench with a lunch box in his hand, watching the video he shot in the morning.

Looking at it, my nose felt a little sour for no reason.

He wants to be a good actor, like Zhang Guoli and Chen Daoming, but the really popular dramas in the mainland every year are basically CCTV dramas.

He has no resources and no background, so it is impossible for him to act in a big CCTV drama.

As for the big dramas filmed by private film and television companies, such as "Ji Xiaolan", there are a group of people rushing to play supporting roles, and it is also not his turn.

After one year of graduation, he spent most of his time recommending himself, with little success. When he was in a daze in the rental room, he sometimes wanted to give up and simply go back to Yanjing to find a job.

But he was rebellious and stubborn since he was a child.

He still wants to persevere, but fortunately this time it seems to be really different.

That young director wrote a different script, and his directing and filming skills are also very strong.

Look at this picture, the colors, the actors' positions are all just right.

At this moment, he really believed in the saying of "noble person", he felt that Li Shengyao was his noble person.

Li Shengyao didn't know what Zhao Yang was thinking, so he came to the conference room of the Jin Jiang Hotel, took out his notebook, closed his eyes and resumed the shooting in the morning.

At this moment, Li Sanfa walked in excitedly, "Director, good news, good news."

"what's wrong?"

"When you were filming just now, I was watching. I saw Zhou Weijun, the general manager of Jinjiang Hotel. He seemed very satisfied with our film. Maybe he would be willing to sponsor our film and save us 30 yuan. money."

Hearing this, Li Shengyao felt more expectation in his heart.

He really needs money, and if he has money, he will go to the beautiful country to shoot instead of going to Macau.

The second male character in the original work came on stage, with ingenious and precise design.

The first time the male number two showed up was sitting on a helicopter, with the brightly lit Las Vegas below. The male number two talked eloquently and calmly, as if he was the king of capital at that moment.

In the following plot, the male number two took his partner to the prison in Las Vegas, and he didn't care about all the prisoners.

In that special environment, with an indifferent expression, he negotiated with a capital tycoon and convinced him of what the other party said.

This picture can be said to be full of force.

It is not impossible for Lee Sheng Yao to go to Macau to shoot, after all Macau is also a casino.

However, the world's lighthouses in the beautiful country, at least for the next 20 years, they all have a good style. In the hearts of the general public, Las Vegas must be more awesome than Macau.

If you have money, you still want to go to Las Vegas.

Li Sanfa then asked: "Should I take the initiative to contact this President Zhou?"

"No, we take the initiative to approach him. Even if we beg him, he will definitely lower the price. Let him come to us, maybe not only will we not have to rent the venue, but we will also get a sponsorship."
