China Entertainment: Been working as a director since 03

Chapter 380 If you want excitement, you must follow through
Li Yu and Da Tiantian both give a thumbs up to Wang Jingzhi.

When it comes to such major issues of right and wrong, Wang Jing is indeed very clear-headed.

Wang Jing is so capable of handling things, Li Yu must give him some face.

"Director Wang, we can discuss the cooperation between you and Tiantian Company slowly, as long as you don't use your money-making movies to cooperate."

Li Yu expressed his attitude.

Wang Jing was overjoyed, as he knew very well that Li Yu's opinion could have a decisive influence on Da Tiantian.

Li Yu was relieved. As long as he put more effort into making the movie and was willing to spend more time and energy, it would not be difficult to meet Li Yu's requirements.

"Director Li, many people say that I can only make bad movies, but I feel very wronged.

Of course, I never complain to anyone in public, nor do I say that I am wronged.

Because I have made a lot of bad movies, it is normal for a director to be criticized for making bad movies.

As long as they buy movie tickets, let alone scolding me online, I will be happy if they point their finger at my nose and scold me in front of me, because they can’t hit me anyway.”

Wang Jing sighed and expressed his helplessness and attitude.

“I understand. I have heard your story. A big part of the reason you made such bad movies was to support the film industry workers in Hong Kong Island.

I also know that you often help directors who make art films, even though it is normal for these directors to make art films at a loss. "

This is also an important reason why Li Yu has a good impression of Wang Jing.

Although Wang Jing often makes bad movies to make money, many of the things he does show that he truly loves the film industry.

Among all the veteran directors in Hong Kong, Wang Jing is not the best, but he is definitely the most special one.

At this moment, Da Tiantian blinked with interest: "I have an idea. Li Yu, you take some time to write a script and let Director Wang be the director. I will be responsible for investing money and starring in it."

Wang Jing's eyes lit up and he became much more energetic.

He personally thinks that Da Tiantian’s suggestion is highly feasible.

If Li Yu can show his true ability and direct the script well, I wouldn't dare to call it a masterpiece, but it will definitely be a good one.

Wang Jing is a screenwriter by profession, but he is very aware of his own level. He is not at the same level as Li Yu in terms of screenwriting.

If Li Yu was willing to provide the script, he would never write it himself.

"I think Miss Jing's suggestion is very good. Director Li will be the screenwriter, I will be the director, and Miss Jing will be the lead actress. This movie will definitely be great."

Wang Jing's expression was very serious and gave people a very sincere feeling.

Da Tiantian nodded twice vigorously to show her agreement with Wang Jing's words.

"Director Wang, you are also a screenwriter. As long as you put your heart into it, you can write a very good script yourself."

Li Yu has been very busy recently.

Besides, as long as Wang Jing puts his heart into it, he can really write a good script, such as the later "Chasing the Dragon". He doesn't really want to participate in it personally.

“I can indeed write a good script if I put my heart into it, but it’s just a good script. How can it compare to the script written by you, Director Li?
People now say that you are the top screenwriter in the country, and I think that in terms of your achievements, you definitely deserve this honor.”

Wang Jing was extremely persistent.

In recent years, he has participated in the production or directed three or four bad movies every year, and his reputation has really collapsed.

Now whenever people mention the king of bad movies, his name is the first one that comes to mind.

If he wants to make it in the mainland, it is important for him to make a comeback and restore his reputation.

If he wrote the script himself, even if he spent a lot of effort, he really wanted to make a good movie.

Because he has made so many bad movies and has deceived so many audiences, before a movie is released, everyone will suspect that he will make another bad movie to make money, and people no longer trust him much.

If the script was written by Li Yu, the situation would be completely different.

Zhang Yingmou, who had been on a downward trend for many years, returned to the top after collaborating with Li Yu.

Chen Kaige and Li Yu, who had been ridiculed for many years since "The Promise", collaborated to reverse their reputation.

No one doubts Chen Kaige's level anymore, and no one doubts that his masterpieces were shot by his father. The audience will now only advise him to find a good screenwriter, and then control his desires and not learn from the micro-management of a certain principal.

It can be said that as long as Li Yu's name is marked in the screenwriter column, the audience will believe that Wang Jing really wants to turn over a new leaf this time.

This has positive significance for the early promotion of the film.

Another reason is that Wang Jing really thinks that the script written by Li Yu is much better than his own.

Wang Jing and Da Tiantian reached a consensus and tacitly persuaded Li Yu to participate in their film project.

Li Yu took a deep breath and thought for a moment, then he thought of something.

"Director Wang, are you very fast at filming?"

Wang Jing was stunned. He and Da Tiantian asked Li Yu to write a script, so why did Li Yu suddenly talk about something that had nothing to do with the script?

Even though he had no clue, he still gave an answer, with a proud look on his face as he answered: "I'm not bragging, I had a nickname back then, the fastest shooter in Hong Kong Island.

Do you know Tricky Brains? An investor came to me with money and asked me to make a movie.

At that time, the script only had ten words: Tricky Brains, Stephen Chow, and Andy Lau.

I started writing the script when the filming started, and I finished it in a month. "

Li Yu had heard that Wang Jing was fast, but he didn't expect Wang Jing to be so fast.

He felt relieved after taking a look at Wang Jing's body shape. It's normal for a fat person to be quick.

Keke, get back to business.

Back to the topic, after learning how fast Wang Jing, the quickshooter, is, Li Yu expressed the idea that suddenly popped into his mind.

"Last year, Stephen Chow secretly started filming a movie in Hengdian, Zhejiang Province, called Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons.

I heard that he has been in contact with Huayi recently, and it is estimated that he will be released during the Spring Festival next year.

Director Wang, I can write a script for you, but do you dare to confront Stephen Chow head-on during the Spring Festival? "

Since you want to pursue excitement, of course you have to carry it through to the end.

Wang Jing was stunned, and Da Tiantian was also stunned.

"Li Yu, aren't you a fan of Stephen Chow?"

Da Tiantian said in surprise.

Wang Jing exclaimed, "Wow! A fan screwing his idol?" Li Yu was the only one he had ever seen.

"I am a fan of actor Stephen Chow, not director Stephen Chow. I want to give him a little stimulation, so that he can understand that he is really better as an actor than as a director.

It would be even better if he could face reality and go back to being an actor. I think the box office appeal of the movies starring Stephen Chow as an actor is better than any other director in China, including me.”

Li Yu said seriously.

Never underestimate the audience's feelings. "The Mermaid" relied on textbook marketing of "owing Stephen Chow a movie ticket" to raise the box office to over 30 billion yuan.

If there was no marketing of owing movie tickets to Stephen Chow, how could "The Mermaid" have earned more than 30 billion yuan at the box office based on its quality?

Director Stephen Chow’s hype of emotions can always achieve the explosive effect of turning decay into something magical.

When actor Stephen Chow makes a masterpiece, and then launches a marketing campaign where people say they owe him a movie ticket, the effect will only be more amazing.

"According to what you said, if Stephen Chow really comes back to be an actor, as long as the movie is good, wouldn't it be easy to break the box office record?

The current box office record was created by you and Director Zhang, and you actually hope that someone can break your record?"

Da Tiantian didn’t understand, but she was deeply shocked.

Wang Jing also couldn't guess Li Yu's thoughts.

If he sets the record for the No. 1 box office in Chinese film history, he hopes that the number one will always be his.

If he had to add a time limit, he hoped it would be ten thousand years.

When I heard Li Yu speak that time, it seemed that he was eager to give up the first position.
