China Entertainment: Been working as a director since 03

Chapter 34 The first meeting with Yan Kuan

One day later, Li Yu met Mr. Cai, Hu Ge and Yuan Hong again in Shanghai.

"Director Li has been so popular lately! News about Full House and Director Li can be seen everywhere these days."

Mr. Cai walked towards Li Yu with a smile on his face.

It’s really emotional when I think back on it.

A few months ago, Li Yu, whom she considered a second-generation rich man playing for money, suddenly turned into a cutting-edge director in the television industry.

Yan Danchen and Luo Jin, who are not well-known, became nationally famous actors thanks to Full House directed by Li Yu. Recently, they have received several endorsements and many commercial performances to make money.

As for Mr. Cai, none of her artists are popular yet.

The main actors in the TV series produced by Sugar Man are basically Hong Kong Islanders and Taiwanese. The artists under her can only serve as supporting actors, serving as green leaves around the red flowers.

If she can be like Li Yu and use a nationally popular TV series to make direct descendants like Hu Ge and Yuan Hong famous, she can turn around.

Maybe he can use the investment from Hong Kong Island and Taiwan Province to film his own movies, and he can also have actors from Hong Kong Island and Taiwan Province supporting his own actors.

Unfortunately, there is no hope for this yet.

Hopefully, "Dandelion" will become as popular as Full House.

"Mr. Cai, thank you. I was just lucky. A blind cat bumped into a dead mouse."

Li Yu said modestly.

In fact, Mr. Cai also believes that the popularity of Li Yu's Full House is largely due to luck. After all, what she saw in Liancheng was a grassroots team.

Maybe it was just Li Yu's good luck that he accidentally shot something that the audience liked to see.

There are many directors who reach their peak when they debut, and then pave the way down the road.

If Li Yu wants to prove that he can continue to produce good and popular dramas, he has to rely on subsequent works to speak for himself.

But no matter what, Mr. Cai is still more interested in Li Yu's second work.

Otherwise, she would not have brought Hu Ge and Yuan Hong to see Li Yu.

At that time, she promised Li Yu on the phone that she would be Li Yu's go-between to contact Yan Kuan.

Hu Ge and Yuan Hong both came, but they didn't say anything. It can only be said that Mr. Cai was a little careful.

She thought about the roles that Yan Kuan could play. There was no reason why Hu Ge and Yuan Hong couldn't play them.

If possible, ask your artists to cut off the character. If it doesn't work, let Li Yu contact Yan Kuan.

Next, Mr. Cai began to test Li Yu's tone, trying to dig out information about Hualiu Company's second drama from Li Yu.

Li Yu doesn't hide anything. Everything will be disclosed to the media in the near future. There is no need to hide it at all.

When Mr. Cai heard the title of the play "The Lonely and Brilliant God: Ghosts", she was really stunned.

She couldn't understand it, but she was shocked.

For a moment, she wondered if she had heard it wrong.

Is there a ghost word in the title of the play? Does this pass trial?
  Isn't there a side story where the protagonist wakes up from a dream or suffers from mental illness at the end? I understand all the domestic films related to ghosts.

"Director Li, why does the title of the play have a ghost character?"

Mr. Cai was very curious.

"Not only does the title of the play have the word ghost, but ghosts appear many times in the plot. The biggest villain in the play is a lonely ghost with a lot of resentment."

Li Yu answered seriously.

"Will this pass trial?"

Mr. Cai, Hu Ge, and Yuan Hong all looked at Li Yu with puzzled eyes.

“It’s not a big problem, the script has been reviewed and the investment has been secured.

Didn’t I come to Shanghai to find Yan Kuan to play the second male lead?

As long as Yan Kuan agrees, after school starts in a few days, I will go to the Chinese Theater to see if there are any suitable actors for the female lead. Once the actors are found, the filming will start. "

Li Yu pulled off the tiger skin to show off.

Mr. Cai: "..."

Hu Ge Yuan Hong: "..."

The expressions of the three of them are similar to the expressions of Li Yu and Teacher Gao at that time. It can be said that they are replicas of classics. Although I don’t know how Li Yu passed the review of the script, Mr. Cai felt that Li Yu was somewhat risky in filming ghosts.

Even if the script passes now, it may still get stuck when the finished film is submitted for review.

So she lost interest in investing, and she did not mention investing in subsequent conversations.

The Sugar Man now is not the Sugar Man in his prime.

Next year, when Sugarman shoots "Legend of Sword and Fairy 1", he will have to involve several film and television companies in Shanghai to co-produce it.

With Mr. Cai's personality of eating alone, he would only ask other people to join him if he couldn't eat it by himself.

In short, Mr. Cai's current funds are not sufficient.

Li Yu's "Ghost" is risky, and she doesn't want to risk real money.

After learning that the first male lead in "Goblin" had been decided and the second male lead had to be a handsome actor, Mr. Cai didn't force it.

The next day, Mr. Cai helped Li Yu contact Yan Kuan.

Yan Kuan is actually not very famous, but he has been out for a long time.

It has been nine years since I participated in the MV shooting of "I Am Chinese" in 94.

This year, Dorian Firm in Taiwan Province wanted to sign him, but he has been hesitant.

The main reason is that his popularity and past works are not enough to support his negotiations with Dorian.

Dorian is very strong and wants him to sign for a long period of time.

He is waiting for the broadcast of "Flowers Blooming in My Dream" and "Ming Dynasty 1449" early next year.

If the performance of these two dramas is outstanding, it can give him some bargaining chips.

It was at this time when he was in desperate need of results to prove his worth that Mr. Cai from Sugar Man contacted him and said that the director of Full House wanted to hire him to act.

The moment he heard the news, he was very excited.

There was quite a lot of news about Full House in the past two months. He had heard "Destiny" many times on the streets of Shanghai.

He listened to the song "Destiny" and thought the song was good, so he started watching the show. After watching it, he found that it was indeed very interesting.

He envied Luo Jin, who played Li Yingcai.

A few months ago, I was a student at Beijing Film Academy and was made famous by Li Yu in a drama.

Looking back at himself, he has never met such a noble person in all his years of debut.

Fortunately, now his opportunity has come, Li Yu is going to ask him to act.

"Director Li, your filming of Full House was so good. I watched all of it without missing an episode."

Yan Kuan kept his posture relatively low in front of Li Yu.

"Let's read the script first."

Li Yu pushed the scripts of the first three episodes of Ghost in front of Yan Kuan.

"it is good."

Yan Kuan nodded solemnly, took a sip of iced American refreshment, picked up the script and began to read it carefully.

He had previously learned that Full House was written and directed by Li Yu, and he felt that Li Yu was very talented.

Now that he saw the ghost script, he felt astonished and realized that he had underestimated Li Yu before.

The setting of "Gui Cha A Gui" deeply amazed him.

The male version of Po Meng lets ghosts drink Meng Po soup to remove their memories and then send them to heaven or hell. How cool this character is.

The plot of ghosts and ghosts fighting each other is also very interesting.

The most attractive part is another part.

Agui and a girl named Summer both fell in love with a ring at the street stall run by Tianqiao Goddess.

When Agui looked at summer, he started crying uncontrollably.

He wanted to know why Agui shed tears.

As he scrolled down, he unknowingly read all the first three episodes of the script. He didn't get the answer he wanted. Li Yu actually broke the chapter! ! !
