China Entertainment: Been working as a director since 03

Chapter 375 The Uncrowned King of Television
Before Fu Dalong could react, Li Yu looked at him and said, "Teacher Fu, I remember when I asked you to play Zulong, you said that you were too unknown to play such an important role.

You advised me to seek help from other talents and recommended some famous and talented actors to me.

I didn't tell you at the time that I made the decision after careful consideration.

When I asked you to star in "The Northern Dynasties", I had already decided to let you continue to star in "The Great Wall".

As for your worry that you are not famous enough to play the leading role in a movie, your worry is completely unnecessary.

A few months later, when The Northern Dynasty is broadcast, you will definitely become one of the most popular actors in the country."

Li Yu is confident in his "The Northern Dynasties", and he is equally confident in Fu Dalong's performance in "The Northern Dynasties".

By the way, this is also one of the important reasons why Li Yu did not rush to grab CCTV’s big drama of the new year.

There is no direct connection between "The Northern Dynasties" and "The Great Wall" series.

But "The Northern Dynasties" is very important to "The Great Wall".

Li Yu planned to use "The Northern Dynasties" to make Fu Dalong, a talented actor who had been buried for many years, famous, and then release the "The Great Wall" series.

"The Kingdom of the Northern Dynasties" must strive for excellence and strive to be perfect.

For the sake of safety and quality assurance, Li Yu would rather give up CCTV's opening drama of the year and spend a few more months polishing the details.

Fu Dalong was surprised at first, then surprised: "Of course I believe what Director Li said. Director Li is good at promoting people. Who in the industry doesn't know this?

Director Li made a lot of male actors famous in his early TV dramas, and he made all the male actors in sketches famous in the movie "Dreaming in the Film Circle".

Fu Dalong is looking forward to the broadcast of "The Kingdom of the Northern Dynasties".

As I said, there is no one in the entertainment industry who doesn’t want to be famous.

People who really don’t want to be famous will never enter the entertainment industry.

Anyone in the entertainment industry who says they don’t want to be famous is just trying to establish a persona.

The same goes for Fu Dalong. He also wants to be famous, and he has been dreaming about this day for many years.

Li Yu's serious attitude towards "The Kingdom of the Northern Dynasties" gave him hope of becoming famous.

The halftime break was over, and Li Yu asked Da Tiantian and Fu Dalong to get ready to continue filming.

……

half year later.

It was already July 2012, and the filming of "The Great Wall" series was announced to be completed.

After hosting a grand wrap-up banquet to reward the actors who had worked hard for nearly eight months, Li Yu returned to his company in Beijing.

It is true that the filming of "The Great Wall" series has been completed, but Li Yu's workload has not been reduced at all.

Because there is still a series of work waiting for him to start in the capital.

For example, the post-production work for "The Kingdom of the Northern Dynasties" was completed in May, and Li Yu deliberately scheduled the premiere time in the summer vacation in July.

The summer vacation can attract more high school and college students, making these two groups loyal viewers of "The Northern Dynasties".

In addition to "The Kingdom of Northern Dynasties", "The Blade of the Assassin", directed by Lu Yang and starring Shi Shi and Zhang Zhen, was completed a few months ago. Now the post-production is almost done and it is ready to go.

"The Blade of the Assassin" is another work that is closely tied to "The Kingdom of the Northern Dynasties".

Shi Shi and Zhang Zhen, the leading actors of "The Northern Dynasty", are also the leading actors of "The Blade of the Assassin".

Lu Yang and Li Yu reached a tacit understanding.

Lu Yang decided to wait until "The Northern Dynasty" was finished before arranging the release of "The Blade of the Assassin".

Only in this way can we reap the dividends brought by "The Northern Dynasties". Under such circumstances, the success or failure of "The Northern Dynasties" is very critical.

Whether it is "The Blade of the Assassin" or the more important "The Great Wall" series, "The Kingdom of Northern Dynasties" needs to fight a beautiful first battle in front.

At present, the release date of "The Kingdom of the Northern Dynasties" has been scheduled. The premiere date is July 7th, and it will be premiered on CCTV-14. Station A will delay the update.

Hualiu Company and CCTV simultaneously started warming up for "The Kingdom of the Northern Dynasties".

Li Yu arranged for the behind-the-scenes production team of "The Northern Dynasties" to release a pilot trailer on platforms such as Station A and Weibo.

Within half a day, the ten-minute trailer became popular.

Netizens can get a glimpse of the quality and style of "The Northern Dynasties" just by watching the trailer.

There is not a single redundant shot in the ten-minute trailer; all of them are highlights.

"It's so exciting. Just the trailer alone makes my blood boil. Gao Huan is really an inspirational example. He started with just a face, but he managed to make a successful comeback in the end.

Director Li made the right choice to ask Zhang Zhen to play Gao Huan. Zhang Zhen’s appearance is exactly the same as the Gao Huan in my mind.

Very handsome, but not too righteous, both good and evil, really very charming. "

"The costumes, makeup, and lines, Director Li's TV series are still of such high quality. No, Director Li's TV series are of higher quality than before.

The effect of "Northern Dynasty" is far better than that of "Nirvana in Fire". I am really looking forward to the 14th."

"Who the hell is that actor who plays Yuwen Tai? His acting is so amazing. The monarch he plays is so full of energy and personality."

"The quality is really amazing. This is truly the drama of the year."

"It's worthy of being a big production with an investment of over 2 million. It's really shocking!"

With just the release of a teaser trailer, "The Northern Dynasties" easily became a hot topic and became the most popular film and television drama in the country.

I guess all the directors in the TV industry would envy the popularity of "The Northern Dynasties".

The feature film of "The Northern Dynasties" has reached the top of the charts even before it was released.

However, they cannot envy him, because this is the reputation and influence accumulated by Li Yu's many excellent works over the years since his debut.

In the film industry, Li Yu cannot be considered top 1.

In the television industry, he is the uncrowned king.

Like many people, Shi Shi was shocked by the fact that "The Northern Dynasty" became popular all over the country before it was even aired.

"Brother Yu, you haven't filmed a TV series for so long, but your influence in the TV industry has become even stronger."

Shi Shi had a surprised expression on her face.

"On the one hand, I have a strong influence, and on the other hand, the quality of the trailer is really high. The audience has sharp eyes and they can see what a good work looks like."

Li Yu felt that this was the result of the trailer being shocking enough and his fame complementing each other.

If the trailer he released was comparable to Bi's "Dreaming in Show Business", would it still be so popular? Definitely not.

Li Yu himself is not surprised by such popularity.

"The Kingdom of the Northern Dynasties" is his most attentive TV work, and he tried his best to do his best in all aspects.

A large-scale historical drama with an investment of 2 million yuan, mostly powerful actors, and a script with good lines.

If you cut out ten minutes of highlights from a drama and they fail to shock people, then there is no need to broadcast the drama.
