The King of Directors 2000

Chapter 255 Jay Chou and Fang Wenshan

"Lee Shing Yew has become the youngest best director in mainland history."

"Shonan Satellite TV announced a co-production with Fenghua in 04, saying that this time it will hit a new record for ratings."

"Li Xiaolan signed with Fenghua, an eight-year contract to make progress together."

"Reply 1988 burst into tears, the sisters finally reconciled."

"Reply 1988 has a total of [-] points in the ratings of the four channels, and the combined ratings are expected to hit the annual crown."

"Zhang Yimou praised "Reply 1988" and wanted to invite Lee Sing Yew to act in the movie."

……

In a house in Wanwan Jilong City, a middle-aged man with a mustache was slumped on the sofa watching TV.

Next to him sat a young man in a hood.

This mustache is Fang Wenshan, and the young man is Jay Chou, who has become popular recently.

Xiao Zhou has been on fire recently, and has the potential to become the little king of the Chinese entertainment industry, but the pressure is also great.

After all, there are a lot of talents in the Chinese music scene now. If he wants to gain a firm foothold and establish his godhood, he needs more excellent works.

Now that Jay Chou is here, he wants to discuss the new song with Fang Wenshan.

Fang Wenshan likes Jay Chou's music style very much. He likes to write lyrics for Jay Chou. He feels that writing lyrics for Jay Chou is more like a poet. He sometimes dreams that he is standing with Su Shi and Li Qingzhao.

But recently, he seems to have no inspiration, and he is also very annoying.

"Jielun, do you have sister Xiaoxia's phone number?"

"Sister Xiaoxia?"

Jay Chou knew that Fang Wenshan was referring to Chen Xiaoxia, "Yes, what's wrong?"

"I heard that sister Xiaoxia has a lot of inspiration recently, and it seems that she has ushered in another creative peak. Let's ask her, where did the inspiration come from?"

Such a question is actually very rude, after all, inspiration is a very private matter.

Jay Chou was a little hesitant, but he thought about Chen Xiaoxia's straightforward nature, and then agreed.

After a while, Jay Chou put down his phone, looked surprised, and said slowly: "Sister Xiaoxia said that she watched a mainland drama called "Please Answer 1988". She was very moved and inspired."

"Oh, can we watch it?"

"I can't watch it, a mainland drama."

Most places in Wanwan cannot receive mainland TV stations, but there are also places where they can receive them, that is Jinmen Island in Xiamen City. The water and electricity of this small island are supported by Xiamen.

Zhou Jielun and Fang Wenshan looked at each other and understood what the other meant.

However, Fang Wenshan still hesitated, "Are you really going? It's suitable for Xiaoxia, but not necessarily for us?"

"Besides, mainland dramas are all uplifting dramas. In May, there was a mainland drama called "Dashang Palace", which was very cool and positive. It was very good to watch, but after it was cool, I didn't feel inspired. "

Fang Wenshan watches a lot of TV dramas, while Jay Chou watches less, so he is a little hesitant when he hears this.

But he thought of Chen Xiaoxia's words, and said, "Sister Xiaoxia said it's very beautiful and very touching. It's about family love, friendship, and growth. It's suitable for everyone to watch."

"Oh, let's go then."

The two then set off, and that night, they stayed in a homestay in Jinmen, and then turned on the TV, and they were able to receive the mainland TV station.

"Which channel?"

"Dongnantai."

"Fart, it's Shonan Taiwan."

The two transferred to Shonan TV, and they saw "Reply 1988" as expected.

They then watched quietly.

The biggest difference between "Please Answer 1988" and ordinary period dramas is that each episode has a theme, so to speak, each episode has an emotional expression.

If you haven't seen it before, it still doesn't affect the later viewing.

Today's episode is about the heroine's sister having a small date with her. Because they were afraid of being discovered by their family members, the two got up to date in the middle of the night, and some very funny things happened.

However, even if the two of them were very careful, they were finally discovered.

Under the shocked eyes of the three gossip elders, people on both sides were at a loss. The three elders went back and forth, and the two juniors also went back and forth. Both sides were like ghosts hitting a wall, and it took a long time before they went home.

The boy's mother didn't feel happy, but a little scared, because the heroine and sister were very fierce in the past, and the elders were afraid.

And the girl's mother is also a little worried, afraid that her daughter will scare others.

Fang Wenshan and Zhou Jielun couldn't help laughing after watching it.

Fang Wenshan often watches TV, everything, including local dramas.

But Jay Chou usually doesn't watch TV dramas, he occasionally watches movies.

At this time, I found that the show was so interesting that both of them thought it was fun.

"This drama is indeed very good. I wonder if there are complete episodes?"

The homestay owner shook his head and said, "Everyone is watching it now, there is no complete episode, and it hasn't been released in the Mainland yet."

Compared with other places, Jinmen people are more pro-inland. Many of them buy houses in Xiamen, and many people have prepared red flags at home, ready to show their positions anytime and anywhere.

Jay Chou nodded, "Boss, let's buy you a drink, can you tell us about the previous plot."

The boss waved his hand, "I like telling stories the most. Don't buy expensive wine. A case of beer is enough. My family has something to sell."

Then Jay Chou and Fang Wenshan ordered supper and chatted with the hotel owner.

From the owner of the homestay, they gradually learned about the previous plot of "Reply 1988".

Knowing that the heroine's sisters fought since childhood, knowing that the heroine's grandmother passed away, her father's crying, knowing that she grew up alone without a father, her mother raised their brothers and sisters to grow up, grandma hated it, grandma felt distressed, and knew that the five little ones are warm and funny youth.

The more the two listened, the more interesting they found it, and they wished they could watch the complete episodes now.

The chat lasted until two o'clock in the morning, and the owner of the hotel finally finished speaking. He finally said: "The director of this drama won the best director. I watched the live broadcast, and the boy is young and good-looking."

Jay Chou and Fang Wenshan returned to the room, he asked, "Are all mainland TV dramas this interesting?"

Fang Wenshan shook his head, "No, but their TV series are much better than Wanwan's. Half a year ago, "Da Shang Palace" was very popular in Wanwan. I heard that it created a miracle in the ratings. Qiong Yao even admitted that she was old and couldn't keep up with her." It's time."

Jay Chou nodded, planning to buy the complete works of "Please Reply 1988" in the future and read them carefully.

"Do you have any inspiration?"

Fang Wenshan hesitated a little, "Some, I'm not sure."

"I have some too."

In the final analysis, songwriting is about telling stories, but your experience is limited, and there are many things that you can’t experience, so you can’t tell them.

At this time, you should read more books, travel more, and of course watch dramas.

Fang Wenshan now knows why Chen Xiaoxia's inspiration exploded recently. "Reply 1988" is indeed very touching. As someone who has read the complete works of "Please Reply 1988", Chen Xiaoxia must have benefited a lot.

"Let's just stay here and go back after Chinese New Year to watch "Reply 1988"."
