The King of Directors 2000

Chapter 303
Li Shengyao didn't want to be too high-profile, Little Steel Pao, Yuan Qiu, and Yuan Hua all said that "Let's Punch, Dad" will be the box office champion next year, so he arranged for the troupe to tell the story of his box office exceeding [-] million.

However, this incident still attracted a lot of hype from the media.

Now there are more and more news about "Let's Punch, Dad" competing for next year's box office champion.

This naturally offended some people, such as Brother Chen Kai, and even Cheng Long was not very happy.

Zhang Yimou has already held a press conference, and next year's film will be a literary film.

And Xiaogangpao's "Night Banquet" is scheduled for the year after next.

Under such circumstances, other filmmakers naturally have more ideas about next year's box office crown.

But after all, they belonged to the same circle. When they faced the reporter's interview, they naturally wouldn't refute directly, at most they just laughed.

On this day, Yenching was still very cold, and Li Shengyao came to the filming set of "Loach Is Also a Fish".

He had finished editing "Punch, Dad," which took seven days.

Compared with his speed of editing TV series, it is considered slow.

But in the film industry, this speed is still very fast.

Mainland movie editing usually takes half a month to a month. Only the previous Hong Kong Island movies can be edited so quickly.

After this incident spread, it attracted many news media reports.

A lot of news said that Lee Seung Yew regarded movies as TV dramas, and some people said that Lee Seung Yew had the demeanor of Hong Kong movies in the past. Although they didn't make it clear, they obviously didn't like Lee Seung Yew's strength.

Li Shengyao didn't bother to care about the rumors outside, he had time, Yang Yazhou happened to be filming in Yanjing, so he came over to make a guest appearance.

Like the previous award-winning "Beautiful Big Feet", the heroine of "Loach Is a Fish" is sister Ni Ping, and the male protagonist is Ni Dahong.

It is very rare for two people surnamed Ni to get together.

When Li Shengyao came to the set, he happened to meet Brother Chen Kai taking Chen Hong to visit the set.

Seeing this, Li Shengyao was very surprised. He remembered that Ni Ping had a relationship with Brother Chen Kai, and it was for Chen Hongsan. There was a lot of trouble back then, but he didn't expect to come to visit the class now.

Is this a settlement?
In this way, Director Li and Director Chen had a relatively private meeting.

The two met before, but it was either an awards ceremony or a movie premiere, there were so many people, the two of them just nodded as a greeting.

This time the number of people is much smaller, so it is natural to be polite.

"Director Li, are you really looking good now?"

Poet Chen narrowed his eyes and said something with a smile.

Li Shengyao waved his hand, "Director Chen is too polite, it's all the media talking nonsense."

Poet Chen is very tall, more than 1.8 meters, which is considered tall in the circle of directors.

Even in the face of Lao Mouzi, he is condescending.

However, Li Shengyao was also 1.8 meters tall. He found that he was looking at Li Shengyao at the same level, and he felt a little uncomfortable.

Seeing Li Shengyao's young and handsome face made him even more unhappy.

This domestic entertainment director is the most handsome, is he going to change?
If you are so handsome, don't want to be an actor, what kind of director should you be?

When Poet Chen was thinking about it, Chen Hong and Ni Ping came out from inside. When she saw Li Shengyao, her eyes lit up, "Director Li, you are really young and promising."

When Chen Hong was young, she was really beautiful. Li Shengyao thought that among all the girls, Chen Hong was the most beautiful.

He's older now, but still looks great.

"Where, Sister Hong, you are young. If you go to act in a TV series, it will not be against your harmony to play with boys."

Chen Hong giggled.

When Poet Chen saw it, his heart turned sour.

"Director Li, how are the preparations for the new movie going?"

"It has been edited, and the next step is the dubbing and soundtrack. The progress is not bad."

"Well, then I wish you a big box office success in advance."

"Lend your auspicious words."

Brother Chen Kai was about to give some pointers in the manner of an old senior, when Chen Hong said, "Director Li, what month do you plan to set the schedule for?"

Chen Hong is one of the producers of "The Promise". She is concerned about this issue, which is actually quite normal.

"June, it hasn't been confirmed yet, if there are no accidents, it should be June."

"We are in July, the two movies are so close."

"It's okay, the mainland film market is so big that it can accommodate two films."

Brother Chen Kai saw that Chen Hong talked a lot with Li Shengyao, and he stood by himself, as if he was an outsider. He felt even more upset, "There is still something to do at home, let's go back quickly."

He then nodded to Li Shengyao and Ni Ping, pulled Chen Hong, and left in a hurry without saying hello to Yang Yazhou.

Yang Yazhou ran out, not knowing why, "Old Chen, he left in such a hurry, I still want to invite you to have dinner together at noon."

Li Shengyao is also strange,
"He said something happened at home."

"Hey, don't care about him, maybe he's going home to write poetry, Director Li, come and put on makeup, this time I'll let you play a migrant worker."

"OK."

After Li Shengyao traveled through time, he never acted in a movie or TV show.

He actually played a few small roles in his previous life, his acting skills were mediocre, at least he didn't make any appearances.

It was the same this time, after Lee Shengyao put on makeup, he played a young single migrant worker, and there were only two sentences.

Whistle to sister Ni Ping, and then talk a few words.

Sister Ni Ping is a middle-aged woman who is divorced and has two children. Faced with such ridicule, she looks cold on the surface, but she is also a little shaken in her heart.

The guest role is actually still not compelling.

However, it is different from the prince in "The Golden Armor in the City", that is an important role, and the performance will leave a deep impression on the audience.

And in "Loach is also a Fish", Lee Shengyao only took a one-minute shot. When the audience found out, there was a high probability that they would smile knowingly and not care about it.

Sister Ni Ping is the idol of countless middle-aged and elderly men, and the audience might envy Li Shengyao.

The performance was over in [-] minutes, only NG three times.

"Director Li, your acting skills are not bad. I feel that you are better than many male protagonists in TV dramas."

Yang Yazhou smiled and teased.

"It's okay, it's only a one-minute play, if you ask me to act for a long time, then it won't work."

"Okay, wait for me, let's have a meal together at noon."

He then called Brother Chen Kai and asked him to come over for dinner, but he refused.

"Old Chen said he was busy at noon, and this guy has a weird temper, so we ignored him."

"Okay, you are busy first, I will study and study."

"Haha, don't say that."

Li Shengyao then sat down, he was joking just now, but it's all right anyway, let's rest assured to see how the best director of this year's Huabiao Golden Chicken Award is filming.

Two hours later, the morning play was over.

Li Shengyao had a meal with Yang Yazhou, Ni Ping, and the second female lead Pan Hong and Ni Dahong.

During the dinner, Pan Hong and Ni Dahong were very polite to Li Shengyao.

When the banquet was over, Ni Dahong toasted and said, "Director Li, I like making movies. If you have a suitable role, don't forget me."

"Teacher Ni, definitely."

Yang Yazhou didn't think there was any problem.

Ni Ping sighed inwardly, even if Yang Yazhou won the director award in the mainland, in the hearts of the actors, his status was not as good as that of Lee Shengyao.

After all, Li Shengyao has money, so he can play at any time.

Yang Yazhou has to look for investment everywhere.

Moreover, director Li Da's films have high news coverage, which is not comparable to directors like Yang Yazhou.
