China Entertainment: Been working as a director since 03

Chapter 273 Li Yu’s science fiction idea

Fan Xiaopang is an actress who has created topics and controversies since the day she became popular.

In the past, she always gave people a dark and red look.

Starting from "Star You", Wan Qianqian's character is so lovable and deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.

Because of Wan Qianqian's role, her audience popularity and reputation have improved a lot.

The literary film "The Sun" even made her the first Cannes Best Actress in Mainland China, which further increased her reputation.

As the most popular actress in the industry and a highly talked-about actress, her every move inevitably attracts media attention.

So Fan Xiaopang came to the appointment wearing a bloated down jacket, a pair of large sunglasses on his small and strong nose, and a scarf tied around his neck. He was really armed to the teeth.

"It seems that being an actor is quite tiring."

Li Yu felt a little emotional.

Fan Xiaopang can think of this with her mind, but she has no evidence.

This is also one of the important reasons why he is not an actor. Not only can he not stand at the top of the food chain, he has to deal with directors and capital bosses at first, fight overtly and covertly with his peers for resources, and at the same time have to compete with his fans and paparazzi. Fighting bravely is really tiring.

On the phone, she was a little confused by Li Yu's initiative.

She still remembered that Tang Yan sent her false information yesterday and sent her away.

Maybe Li Yu was with Tang Yan last night.

On the way here, she calmed down to think about it, and her mind had regained its clarity.

Maybe it was Li Yu who instigated Tang Yan to do what he did.

She didn't believe that Tang Yan took her away just to have fun with her.

Fan Xiaopang is ordering Li Yu.

Fan Xiaopang is a very smart woman.

Otherwise, why would Tang Yan disappear with Li Yu yesterday?

Li Yu knew this and pretended to be angry: "Sister Binbin, I stayed up all night writing the script for you, and you actually doubt me so much?"

Li Yu's firm eyes and righteous face made Fan Xiaopang unable to find any loopholes. She could only believe Li Yu's words for the time being.

"The dark circles under the eyes may not appear because the director is trying to do something wrong, right?
It could also be that he and the actress were chatting about the script in the middle of the night. Do you think I’m right? "

Next, Li Yu and Fan Xiaopang talked about the movie script.

What Tang Yan did, must have something to do with Li Yu.

"Being a director is not easy either. You have heavy dark circles on your face."

Li Yu said confidently: "That's because being a director is too tiring. Especially for a director like me who can do both choreographing and directing, it's really hard work."

Li Yu's heart skipped a beat when he heard the word "black eye."

Fan Xiaopang took off her sunglasses, revealing her delicate and beautiful face.

Fortunately, the master of time management has not overturned yet, and the dark circles under his eyes have not deteriorated, otherwise he would not be able to wash them away even if he jumped into the Yellow River.

Fan Xiaopang sighed and said: "There is a reason why I am so anxious to let you help me make a movie. After the contract expired in 07, I separated from Huayi and established my own studio.

Li Lianhua and Brother Xun, who used to compete with me for resources at Huayi, now have continuous film resources and are making great strides in the film industry. I am the only one who is holding back with the Cannes Best Actress trophy. Do you think I can not be anxious? "

Li Yu nodded, he could understand Fan Xiaopang's mentality.

To be honest, since I came back from Cannes that year, I really felt a little helpless.

It's time for Li Yu to arrange a movie for Fan Xiaopang.

After all, Gao Xiaoqin, who played Fan Xiaopang in "In Name" last time, worked very hard.

Before Li Yu could speak, Fan Xiaopang added, "You said you wrote a new script for me last night? Why a new script? I think the movie you made with Guoshi was very good."

Fan Xiaopang is very smart. She knows that Li Yu has written a new script for her, which means that the movie starring Li Yu and Zhang Yingmou will no longer be available to her.

As soon as the collaboration between Li Yu and Zhang Yingmou was announced, this movie became the most anticipated and most watched movie in the entire Chinese film industry.

If possible, Fan Xiaopang would certainly give priority to this movie with great potential.

Li Yu shook his head and said: "The national teacher is worried that I will limit his performance. He is currently in a dilemma. Whether we can cooperate in the end is still unknown.

Also, even if the National Master and I really cooperate, there is no suitable role for you in the movie.

This kind of historical blockbuster does not need too many female characters, and the female characters only serve as embellishments. "

Li Yu didn't want to arrange several maids with strong martial arts skills for Qin Hui. She is not Wu Baige, arranging sex scenes for the male and female protagonists in the military camp.

It’s enough to have Da Tiantian as a stunning female character.

Here comes Fan Xiaopang again. Should Fan Xiaopang be added to the scene or not?

Adding too many female characters can easily degrade the quality of a movie.

Without the extra scenes, she would be a plus-size female supporting role at best.

Letting Fan Xiaopang play a large female supporting role is a waste of talent, and it also lowers Fan Xiaopang's style.

So rejecting Fan Xiaopang directly would be good for the movie and Fan Xiaopang himself.

Fan Xiaopang was a little disappointed, but thinking that Li Yu wrote another script for her, it was acceptable.

The name of this script is "The Night the Comet Came", and it is a niche science fiction suspense movie.

This movie is an example of small cost and great charm. It can be called the best science fiction work with small investment.

It is said to cost only 50,000 yuan, and the box office is very good compared to the investment.

"sci-fi movie?"

Fan Xiaopang was a little surprised when he saw the introduction to the script.

“I personally think that if Chinese-language films want to go global, they have to rely on science fiction and fairy tale films.

I will also make science fiction films in the future, and this film is just a small test, as it is a good start for domestic science fiction films. "

Li Yu said seriously.

It is difficult for historical blockbusters to achieve excellent results abroad, unless they cater to foreign tastes like "Hero".

But once it caters to the tastes of foreigners, domestic audiences should scold it.

Therefore, Li Yu personally does not believe that historical blockbusters can go global.

Science fiction and fairy tale movies are fine.

Needless to say, science fiction is loved by people all over the world.

Xianxia movies are an upgraded version of martial arts movies. No matter how exciting the martial arts movies are, they are all about fists and kicks, and the structure and worldview are ultimately small.

The format and world view of fairy-tale movies have become more diverse. There are so many fairy tales in China spanning five thousand years, so there are a lot of things that can be filmed, and even a whole universe of fairy cultivators can be created.

Not only Chinese people are interested, but foreigners are also interested.

The element of Chinese Kung Fu is enough to fascinate foreigners. Wouldn’t it be more exciting to cultivate immortality?

However, whether it is a science fiction film or a fairy tale film, it requires very powerful special effects to support it.

So Li Yu is currently filming historical films.

Historical films require relatively few special effects.

When special effects technology matures, Li Yu will definitely make science fiction films and fairy tale films, especially fairy tale films.

Sci-fi movies first became popular abroad. No matter how good Li Yu is, he is just a follower.

If we can make a good movie about Xianxia, ​​then we can truly establish a sect.

Li Yu said seriously: "I can tell you the truth, it doesn't cost much to make a movie out of this script, and the box office will probably not be too high.

But the reputation will definitely be very good, and it will definitely become a classic of domestic low-budget science fiction films.

After I finish filming "Red River", I will officially direct the first science fiction blockbuster in my career, a real blockbuster.

At that time, I can give priority to choosing you to play the female lead, but..."

"You can just say whatever you want, and I will listen."

Fan Xiaopang's heart has become excited.

With Fan Xiaopang's words, Li Yu was no longer polite. He really told Fan Xiaopang what he wanted to say.

"..."

Fan Xiaopang was stunned by Li Yu's words.

Because the topic Li Yu wanted to talk to her was really scary.
