The King of Directors 2000

Chapter 297
October 2004, 10 is a very important day for the whole country to celebrate.

At the Landmark Hotel, Li Shengyao hosted a banquet for all the talented artists and employees in Beijing, and asked his assistant to prepare some small gifts, which were regarded as holiday benefits for everyone.

At the main table, sat Li Shengyao, Zhao Yang, Yan Danchen, Guo Xiaodong, Zu Feng, Sun Li, Li Xiaolan, and Dong Xuan.

Zhao Yang only made the decision last month, which means he has ended his two-year advertising endorsement career.

He earned more than 3 million for the company, which is about the same as Bae Yong Joon in Lee Seung Yew's previous life.

It stands to reason that the Chinese market is bigger, and there are more Chinese people all over the world, so they should earn more.

However, Zhao Yang has been working hard since [-], while Bae Yong Joon has been working hard since [-].

This is a difference of two years, and the endorsement fee is naturally different.

Li Shengyao had already chatted with Zhao Yang. Zhao Yang could leave the company, or he could set up his own studio and stay with the company. Of course, he could keep it as it was.

What Zhao Yang meant was to open a studio and invest in the production later.

But he was too tired before, so he will rest in the second half of this year and come back next year.

Hao Lei is still outside and should be back by the end of this year. Li Shengyao guessed that Hao Lei would leave by then. This crazy woman has always wanted to be her own boss.

Li Shengyao doesn't care, Hao Lei doesn't earn as much as Zhao Yang, but she still has more than 1 million.

The task is completed, and she can stay or leave as she pleases.

Yan Danchen has already figured it out. With her current acting skills, it is quite embarrassing to act in a drama. She has returned to Fenghua's self-produced drama. Next, Fenghua will continue to shoot TV dramas, not only co-produced dramas, but also self-produced dramas.

The self-produced drama this time is called "Ghost", which is the Korean version of the TV drama with So Ji-sub as the leading actor.

It tells the story of the male and female protagonists working together to fight cybercrime.

This theme should not have been filmed in the mainland.

Naturally, Li Shengyao didn't want to shoot, so he asked Zhu Yi to help him.

After filming "Sister Lin Fell from the Sky", Zhu Yi stayed at home all the time.

Li Shengyao gave him a chance. As for the final effect, it is not for Li Shengyao to be sure.
After all, famous directors don't have to worry about not having a job, and they won't help Li Shengyao start a movie, so he can only find a second-class director.

As for Guo Xiaodong, Sun Li, and Zu Feng, they can definitely act in real dramas. They don't need to use Fenghua's resources, and they can receive good dramas by themselves.

Dong Xuan is still acting in co-produced dramas. She has been working quietly, and now she has a good reputation and made a lot of money. She has already moved towards a first-line actress.

Li Xiaolan is currently the most popular. "The Temptation of Going Home" has an average rating of over [-], and there are a total of [-] episodes, and it can be broadcast for a while.

She will be even hotter later.

Recently, she frantically accepts advertising endorsements and makes a lot of money.

Besides their table, Hu Ge and Wang Kai were also sitting at the next table.

Li Shengyao raised the teacup first, then made a toast to everyone, and then made a special toast to Yan Danchen and the elderly.

Two years ago, he said that he would invite these actors to perform in his first film.

Now it's not a broken promise, but just let them be passers-by.

He felt a little guilty, so he punished himself with three cups.

Yan Danchen had a close relationship with him, so he spoke more casually, and couldn't help complaining: "It's too dishonest, Director Li, we don't want to do this, we will write a play in which a few of us can play important roles."

Zhao Yang and the others agreed one after another.

Li Shengyao laughed, "It's my fault this time, wait for me for three or four years, and then I will definitely write a play that you can act in."

Then everyone ate and drank.

Yan Danchen and the others didn't blame Li Shengyao, after all, the first play was naturally very important.

"Let's Punch, Dad" really doesn't have any suitable roles for them, so they can't make random arrangements at this time.

Everyone understood Li Shengyao, just now he was just teasing, and he didn't take it seriously.

Yan Danchen, Dong Xuan, and Li Xiaolan had a special relationship with Li Shengyao.

But they are all sensible people, so naturally they won't make trouble at this time.

Yan Danchen has a good relationship with Dong Xuan, but they are not very close to Li Xiaolan.

Li Shengyao didn't bother to care about these things, and he didn't really want to open a harem.

These women come and go freely.

Of course, Dao Li has a cleanliness habit, and they are with other men, so he won't touch them again.

At this time, the Fenghua workers and craftsmen gathered together in harmony and unity, which was what Li Shengyao cared about.

"Hey, what's the next co-production with Shonan Satellite TV?"

Li Xiaolan drank some wine and blushed.

She looked gentle and quiet, but in fact she had the personality of a big girl from Yanjing, she was outgoing and bright, she had just had a few drinks, and she took the initiative to talk to Yan Danchen and Dong Xuan, and the three women hugged each other and chatted enthusiastically.

Now that the other two women were settled, she came to look for Li Shengyao.

Li Shengyao raised his eyebrows, "The method is good."

"Tch, I just don't want to make it too embarrassing, and I don't have a reputation, so I don't care about you."

"Oh, who told me to have a baby last time?"

Li Xiaolan turned her head, not looking at Li Shengyao.

He ordered the table, "Don't you take a rest, are you so diligent?"

In his previous life, Li Xiaolan seemed to be quite lazy, and he belonged to the category of actresses who rarely took on roles.

Li Xiaolan took a sip of wine, "If you can climb up, why don't you seize the opportunity?"

This is true. In his previous life, Li Xiaolan had never had any big hits. Her biggest news was a domestic violence boyfriend, and then she had a good figure.

"Well, the next play is called "Promise."

Li Shengyao had already written the outline of the co-production with Shonan Satellite TV, and asked his screenwriters to expand it.

This time the TV series comes from Tuji. In his previous life, more than ten years later, Tuju will become the second largest exporter of TV dramas in the world, second only to Korean dramas.

Peninsula, Tuji, Beautiful Country, and Mexican Song, these four TV series have the most exports.

The drama of the beautiful country is too dark, and the export is actually not as good as the peninsula and the chicken.

Local dramas almost dominate the Middle East and West Asian markets.

"Promise" is a very popular TV series with high ratings.

The content is actually very ordinary and bloody. It is a poor girl who was entrusted by an elder who took care of her family for a long time to marry the elder's son.

The elder's family was very rich, he had cancer himself, and died soon, the kind girl agreed.

As a result, the newlywed husband ignored her, thinking that she had ulterior motives, and her mother-in-law often made things difficult for her.

But later the husband fell in love with her hopelessly, so the status was reversed, and the husband became a licking dog, chasing his wife to the crematorium.

At present, there is no such theme in the mainland peninsula.

Li Shengyao planned to shoot it.

Li Xiaolan looks a bit miserable, but he is actually suitable for playing such a bullied role.

When she heard Li Shengyao explaining the plot, she also felt that it was very suitable for her, and she looked at Li Shengyao with a pair of smiling eyes.

"Don't think about it, I don't have time tonight."

Li Shengyao intends to appease the old man tonight, there is an order in everything, so that people can be convinced by virtue, right?
And "Let's Punch, Daddy" is about to start, Yan Danchen will play a guest role in it anyway, and he wants to play against her.
