The King of Directors 2000

Chapter 99

2001年8月1日中午12的20分，燕京艳阳高挂，温暖的阳光洒落下来。

On the second floor of Landmark Hotel, at a table by the window, two men stood facing each other.

A man in his early twenties, very handsome.

One looks in his forties, wears a pair of glasses, and looks ordinary.

These two people looked very different, they were Li Shengyao and Zhuo Wei.

Li Shengyao was writing the outline of the story, when Zhuo Wei came, hoping to interview him, and said that he could do the interview while eating.

Isn't that what it means to be a guest?

Li Shengyao was very happy to spend Zhuowei's money.

But at this time Li Shengyao had finished eating, Zhuo Wei hadn't finished eating, and was devouring food like a wolf.

Li Shengyao felt that he miscalculated the situation.

Zhuowei's delicious food must not be spent on his own money.

Dog days should be consumption of public funds.

Zhuo Wei's food was very delicious, just like Li Shengyao predicted, this interview treat can be reimbursed, so his food was particularly delicious.

Spending other people's money is cool.

"Director Li, I just laughed, I just like this smell."

Li Shengyao smiled, then waved his hands, "Eat slowly, I'll drink tea."

Hearing this, Zhuo Wei hurriedly stood up and poured tea for Li Shengyao.

Not long after, Takuo patted his swollen belly with satisfaction, and then lightly loosened the belt.

Only then did I take out the notebook and ballpoint pen.

"Director Li, I went to Harbin to film "Winter Sonata" before, and I deeply feel that this drama is very well shot, and it will definitely be popular. My recent articles are all about "Winter Sonata", but I am a layman after all. This time I came here to interview you, just to introduce to the audience what is so good about "Winter Sonata"."

Zhuowei kept his posture very low, naturally Li Shengyao would not intentionally make things difficult for him.

"Okay, let's get started."

Zhuo Wei asked excitedly: "Director Li, how many ratings do you predict "Winter Sonata" will have?"

"I'm not sure, I think at least three points or more."

"I heard that this script is very complicated, and the relationship between the hero and heroine is very tortuous, isn't it?"

"Yes, the male protagonist has experienced a lot, including the opposition from the previous generation, the male protagonist lost his memory, and then had a car accident, and when he lost his memory, the male and female protagonists actually already had a partner, and there were many misunderstandings. And terminal illness."

Li Shengyao told the truth, he neither exaggerated nor concealed.

Zhuo Wei observed Li Shengyao while writing, he could naturally feel Li Shengyao's magnanimity.

He couldn't help but think of the two previous interviews, because he was biased and misinterpreted Li Shengyao's words at the beginning, so that the two of them obviously had no major conflicts, but it was hard for him to let go later.

Only now did I feel that I was too utilitarian before.

"Can you tell me about the troubles you encountered during the filming?"

"The biggest trouble is that Zhao Yang fell ill during filming. This is what worries me the most."

Li Shengyao picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, then said: "I hope everyone in the crew is healthy and healthy. Work is very important, but health is even more important. Fortunately, Zhao Yang recovered later."

"Then what is the biggest highlight of "Winter Sonata"?"

"It's a beautiful picture. In order to create a good effect, our photography team went to Harbin City 20 days before the shooting to find the feeling. We have thought carefully about every plot, angle, luminosity, and structure. It gives the audience a new look and a new feeling.”

……

Li Shengyao talked eloquently, while Zhuo Wei asked and memorized.

Zhuo Wei didn't deliberately set up a trick, Li Shengyao told the truth, and the interview between the two went very smoothly.

Takuo secretly sighed while remembering.

There are quite a few young people in their early twenties in their programs, but all of these people are very frivolous, and they are completely incomparable with Li Shengyao.

Calm down and communicate calmly.

Only then did he realize how outstanding this young man was.

As early as July 30th, Suzhou Satellite TV and Shanghai City Satellite TV announced that they would broadcast "Winter Sonata" on August [-]th. Both channels played the trailer, trailer and theme song of Winter Sonata.

It is said to work very well.

The TV series has not been aired yet, and the trailer alone has attracted many people's attention. Many viewers called Shanghai City Satellite TV and Gusu Satellite TV to ask them to broadcast it earlier.

Even some of Takuo's female colleagues expressed that they wanted to watch the premiere.

Many people said that they didn't expect Harbin to be so beautiful, and they wanted to travel to Harbin in winter.

Harbin Satellite TV recently said a lot of good things about Li Shengyao, saying that Li Shengyao is a friend of Harbin people and understands the beauty of Harbin.

Such a young, talented person who can make friends with Gusu Satellite TV and Shanghai City Satellite TV, win the Feitian Award, and be an honorary citizen of Jinling.

As long as you don't mess around in the future, the future is limitless.

Even the young Lao Mouzi and Poet Chen are incomparable.

Takuo thought about it carefully, only then realized that his previous strategy was wrong.

Facing such an excellent person, he should make friends, why should he make friends?

The questions about "Winter Sonata" are almost finished.

Zhuo Wei thought for a while, and finally asked: "Director Li, what is your goal? Is it to become the king of Chinese idol dramas? Or do you have other ideas?"

"After I finish filming "Winter Sonata", I probably won't make idol dramas again, unless I have a particularly good script, but I haven't seen it yet."

He smiled, facing the sunlight coming in from the window, and said slowly but firmly: "My goal is to become a very good film director. I am still studying now. After a few years, I will make a film."

Sure enough, all actors and directors wanted to climb into the film industry.

Before the change, Zhuo Wei must have complained in his heart, but now he feels that Li Shengyao can succeed, and even bring earth-shaking changes to Huaxia movies.

Just like modern dramas such as "Love Hotel" and "Funny Family" are sold overseas.

He felt that Lee Seung Yew would feel differently.

"Can you give me an approximate time?"

"Two or three years."

The filming of the TV series went smoothly than expected. Lee Shengyao is now worth tens of millions, and making money is no longer his top priority.

The most important thing for him is to win awards. In the TV drama circle, he will first win the Golden Eagle, Magnolia, Feitian best director, at least one, and he will also win the national first-level director title.

And then into the film industry.

When a new director wants to enter the industry, he naturally has to embrace his thighs.

He sometimes thinks about this issue, and later feels that the dividends of the "Chain Saw" movie and the script of "Pirates of the Caribbean" are good tickets.

He is a small card, Hollywood can ignore him, he can sell this part of the interest to the China Film Group, and China Film Group should be able to make a fortune, so as to get on the line with China Film Group.

Zhuo Wei heard the words and felt that the time was too rushed. After two or three years, Li Shengyao would only be 24 or [-] years old.

But he did not refute, this time Takuo intends to wait and see how fast the genius upgrades.

"Okay, I'm here to wish Director Li success and become a great director like Zhang Yimou in the future."
