China Entertainment: Been working as a director since 03

Chapter 250 Who gives me a backstage?
After the premiere of "In Name", Li Yu did not dwell on the glory of the past and immediately started casting for "Dream Chasing Film Circle".

This script was adapted from "Charlotte Troubles" by Li Yu.

The development of the first half of the movie is basically similar to "Charlotte".

Just replace music with movies and school with Beijing Film Academy.

What is really different is the second half of the movie, the story after Charlotte hits someone, which is Li Yu's magic change.

In Li Yu's script, Charlotte did not retreat after experiencing the beating incident.

Because the director is a worker behind the scenes, he is different from the actors and singers in front of the stage.

After Qiu Ya learned that Xia Luo had beaten someone, she blamed Xia Luo for being impulsive.

Charlotte was confident and said with some disdain: "What's wrong with beating people? I'm a director, not an actor.

With my current status, let alone hitting people, even if I smoke a lot, I can still be a great director and make blockbusters, and even make movies with the main theme. "

As a great director, it is true that he can continue to be a great director even if he is exposed as a heavy smoker. Beating people is not a big deal. "

Therefore, Li Yu did not change the actors, but directly asked Shen Teng, who was currently performing in stage plays and sketches, to come over.

Shen Teng is really not well-known now, and it would be hard to overstate how transparent he is.

"..."

In the original time and space, Shen Teng had to wait until 2012 to appear on the Yangma Spring Festival Gala and perform the sketch "I'm So Lucky Today" to become famous with the role of Hao Jian.

He is a smart man and knows that he must seize this hard-won opportunity.

He was amazed by Li Yu's talent.

After reading the section where Charlotte said an extremely ironic line after beating someone, Shen Teng admired: "Director Li, you wrote this script really well and the lines are really ironic.

"Brother Teng, keep reading. The beating scene is just an appetizer. The subsequent plot will be even more exciting.

Because her reaction to seeing Li Yu's script for the first time was similar to Shen Teng's.

Flattered, he rushed over to find Li Yu without stopping.

Being able to play a role in Li Yu's movie is better than playing stage plays and sketches for ten years.

The original Charlotte was played by Shen Teng.

After arriving at Hualiu Company, after a simple exchange of greetings, he began to read the script of "Dream Chasing Film Circle" seriously.

Li Yu personally thinks that Shen Teng played the role of Charlotte very well. It can be called the pinnacle of Shen Teng's movies. This role is also the pinnacle of his acting skills.

For him to be noticed by a great director of Li Yu's level is a great thing that only the smoke from the ancestral grave can catch up with.

It wasn't until someone from Hualiu Company called him a second time, and after careful repeated confirmations, he was convinced that Li Yu really wanted to make a movie with him.

When he received an invitation call from Hualiu Company, he was so shocked that he thought he had received a scam call.

Shen Teng was shocked that such a realistic and ironic plot was just the beginning?
Shen Teng looked down attentively.

Li Yu, the top domestic director, asked him to make a movie. What kind of international joke was he making?
Why did he, a stage actor, get into Li Yu's eyes?

Liu Yifei, who was sitting next to Li Yu, was not surprised by Shen Teng's reaction.

Sure enough, as Liu Yifei said, the content behind is even darker.

After listening to Xia Luo's arrogant and incorrect views, Qiu Ya did not correct Xia Luo's mistake. Instead, she looked at Xia Luo with admiration and praised Xia Luo as the most talented man in the world.

By the way, the person Charlotte hit earlier was no longer Zhou Jilun, but Li Yu himself in a guest appearance.

In the movie, Charlotte's achievements were originally Li Yu's.

Charlotte's peak works are the "Guandu" series and "The Great Wall".

He beat Li Yu, but failed to stop Li Yu from taking the path of director.

A few years later, Li Yu successfully made his debut and became a leader of the new generation of directors with a few films.

Li Yu's smooth debut made Xia Luo unable to copy.

Charlotte did not quit the industry, but created her own movie. His original movie was widely recognized as a bad movie, but he relied on his huge influence in the industry to forcefully attract a group of experts and big shots to support his movie.

He confuses right and wrong, labeling viewers who leave negative reviews as having poor taste, not understanding appreciation, and being unable to eat fine chaff.

The quality of his movies is not as good as Li Yu's, but he has capital support. He relies on the box office of Yinbing, unites schools to let students pay to enter theaters, and other operations to firmly suppress Li Yu in the box office field.

This is the real entertainment industry, this is the real dream-seeking film industry.

What's more true is that at the end of the movie, Li Yu's real body still failed to defeat Charlotte.

The hero did not appear.

The director-manager combination of Xia Luo and Qiu Ya still wields a sickle to harvest domestic audiences.

The audience was clearly served a pot of rice bran, but they had to hold their heads down to make them say it was delicacies from mountains and seas.

In the last scene at the end of the movie, Charlotte and Qiu Ya are discussing the film plan.

Charlotte said: "My next movie will be about my mother, and my next movie will be about losing weight."

Qiu Ya understood and said: "Who dares to say that our first movie was not good? We let the navy scold them for being motherless.

Who dares to criticize our second film, we let trolls accuse them of misogyny.

Anyway, each of our films has hundreds of millions in marketing fees, the media and film critics are all our people, and our voice is enough to overwhelm all opponents. "

The movie officially ends here.

"Charlotte" itself is a good comedy, but the overall intention is not high and there is no depth.

After Li Yu's magic modification, "Dream Chasing Movie Circle" not only retains the essence of "Charlotte Trouble", but the subsequent magic modification of the plot has raised the connotation and depth of this movie by several levels.

Capital is king, bad money drives out good money, capital and big directors forcefully feed the audience...

These ironic events all happened in the future, and some of them are already happening now.

Many years later, audiences who have been educated by capital will come back to watch Li Yu's "Dream Showbiz" and they will definitely feel like they watch it often.

As a seasoned veteran, Shen Teng could see many examples of satirical entertainment industry phenomena in Li Yu's scripts.

For example, even if you are caught smoking, you can still be a great director and shoot the main theme.

Another example is pressing the audience's head and forcing them to say that a pot of rice bran is a delicacy.

If the audience insists that it is chaff, then they will say that the audience does not understand art at all.

A typical case is the exact words of a certain great director, 'It will take 5 years, or even 10 years before you can understand my movies.'

Shen Teng was greatly shocked and couldn't help but cry for Li Yu: "Director Li, this script is so exciting, but it is too dark and realistic. Can such a script really pass the review?"

"For ordinary directors, such a script will definitely not pass the review, but who will let me have a backstage?

You should know Jing Tian and Yu Feihong, right?

By the way, I helped Dali Temple shoot a movie called "In Name" not long ago and helped them overfulfill their annual publicity tasks.

I asked them to do a small favor, and I thought they wouldn't refuse. "

Li Yufeng said calmly.

Why did he take the job from Dali Temple?
A TV series like "The Name" can only be broadcast once, which is far less profitable than filming other TV series.

Li Yu's purpose is to accumulate contacts and find a powerful backer.

No, the backer is already playing a role.

Liu Yifei: "..."

Shen Teng: "..."

Liu Yifei and Shen Teng were completely speechless after listening to Li Yu's words.

What else can they say except that the director is awesome?
