China Entertainment: Been working as a director since 03

Chapter 41 The ghost starts up

What Zufeng regrets is that Li Yu did not choose to write a very realistic and cruel historical story, but expanded the story into an idol drama.

He was thinking if Li Yu expanded the ancient paragraph and wrote it in detail.

With Li Yu's talent, he will definitely be able to write a very exciting fantasy plot drama, and his performance as a general will definitely be very enjoyable.

After listening to Zu Feng's analysis of the highlights of the script and Zu Feng's doubts, Li Yu smiled and replied: "I think there is no distinction between high and low in art.

The popular songs played in the streets and alleys are art, and the wonderful performances of the symphony orchestra in the theater are also art.

It's all art, be it vulgar or elegant, as long as everyone likes it, there's no saying that anyone is superior or inferior.

Teacher Zu said, why don't I write a 'good script' that is exciting and can make people think.

This is a good question and I will write about it in the future.

You have to have a sufficient economic foundation and have the conditions to pursue the realm of "elegantness", right? "

Zu Feng nodded silently.

He finally understood why Li Yu chose to write idol dramas despite being capable of writing good scripts. It turned out that he was doing primitive accumulation to make money.

He finally understood Li Yu's inner thoughts, and he also understood Li Yu's actions.

Not everyone can be the king of sunglasses, and investors want to jump off the building for the sake of art.

Li Yu's approach belongs to the conservative school. He eats enough first and then pursues a higher realm.

"I'm looking forward to Director Li's future scripts. Just in the script "Ghost", I can see Director Li's skill in machinations, traditional culture, and fate and cause and effect."

Zu Fengdao.

As an introvert, Zu Feng rarely compliments others.

He said this because he thought from the bottom of his heart that there were really many shining points in Li Yu's script that he admired.

For example, in places such as ghosts, goddesses, and gods, Li Yu adopted a more complete Chinese system of gods and ghosts.

If the ghosts can be sold abroad in the future, it can be regarded as exporting traditional culture.

Regarding the fate of the male and female protagonists and others, Li Yu expressed it more clearly than the original version.

The ending of the original Ghost is happy on the surface, but actually sad, but it's not expressed very clearly.

Li Yu's script clearly stated that this is a very sad ending.

Carry out the theme of "The Lonely and Brilliant God: Ghost" to the end.

In the story written by Li Yu, people are only destined for four lives.

After four lives, they will never meet again even if they are reincarnated.

After the ghost died together with the treacherous minister who turned into a fierce ghost, the ghost's obsession disappeared, and there was no meaning for him to stay in the world.

But in order to abide by the promise he made to the heroine, he relied on his strong will to come back from nothingness when it first snowed, and forcibly returned to the heroine.

He did so at a cost.

He gave up the chance of reincarnation for his promise, and when he came back he was still the same immortal ghost.

But the heroine has only four lives with him.

After the heroine's fourth life, he will never have the chance to meet the heroine's reincarnation. He can only live alone in the world, and he will never die.

This is the lonely and brilliant God that Li Yu personally understands.

The only splendid four lives he spent with the heroine were the endless loneliness and loneliness.

It can be said that the ghosts written by Li Yu have surpassed the original version in terms of height and depth, and have truly surpassed the original.

Zu Feng saw that this was a very high-quality script, so he chose to take on this drama and star in his first idol drama in his life.

"Listening to your two analysis, this ghost script is really great."

Teacher Gao has not read the complete ghost script.

Hearing Zu Feng and Li Yu discuss the deep meaning of various settings in the script, he, as a teacher, was very happy.

Li Yu didn't lie to him at that time. Li Yu really wanted to make progress. The script of this ghost movie is much better than the last script of Full House. It takes both commercialization and certain thinking into account.

Liu Shishi, who had already ordered the food, was not very satisfied with the script. She complained: "How can it be a sad ending? In the end of a romantic drama, the male and female protagonists must be together and never be separated."

After all, she is a young girl who has beautiful fantasies about love.

“Actually, in real life, happy endings are always in the minority, and tragedies are the majority.

Why do people miss their youth? Because youth is the most beautiful period in a person's life.

However, for most people, the best years of a person's life may only be those few years. "

Li Yu said earnestly.

"Why do you speak so old-fashioned at such a young age, as if you have lived for many years? Aren't you still in your youth now?"

Teacher Gao agreed with Li Yu's words, but he still couldn't help but complain.

Li Yu smiled and said nothing.

Can he say that if the years experienced in the dream are included, Teacher Gao really did not live as long as he did?
  But these words are definitely not allowed to be spoken, as they will be sent to a mental hospital.

During the conversation, all the dishes Liu Shishi ordered were served.

The taste of foodies is indeed good. This meal was very rich and everyone was very satisfied.

……

Time flies, eight days later, Hengdian.

Ghosts, which has been in preparation for a long time, finally has its launch day.

As director, Li Yu held the opening ceremony for the second time.

Li Yu took Zu Feng, Liu Shishi and others to burn incense and worship the gods.

Since the filming in Hengdian was an ancient scene, Yu Feihong and Yan Kuan did not join the cast.

The king and queen of their two previous lives were played by Ma Wenlong and Tang Yan respectively.

In fact, Liu Shishi had no role in the ancient plot.

But she was free, and it was her first time filming and she was interested in everything on the set.

In addition, letting her join the crew in advance can help her adapt to the working atmosphere of the crew in advance, which will be beneficial to subsequent filming of her scenes, so Li Yu brought her to Hengdian.

Unlike the last time Full House was launched, Li Yu paid for the reporters himself.

Li Yu did not invite any media reporters this time. The reporters came at their own expense after hearing the news.

There was a large crowd of people in Wuyang Wuyang at the start-up scene.

There were dozens of reporters armed with guns and cannons, more than the crew members.

The main reason is that Full House has been so popular recently, and there are frequent reports of Full House's ratings in Silla and other places.

Many media want to interview director Li Yu.

But as a director and a behind-the-scenes worker, Li Yu didn't want to show too much face in front of the camera, so he refused them all.

If Li Yu wanted to show his face, why didn't he direct and act?

Therefore, reporters who could not usually interview Li Yu came to the start-up site today.

Li Yugang finished presiding over the opening ceremony and took the crew members for interviews with reporters as usual.

In just a few seconds, more than a dozen microphones were handed to Li Yu, eager to stuff them into his mouth.

As a director, there are more reporters interviewing him than actors, which can be considered a unique style of painting.

The actors and actresses of Ghost and Ghost were a little bit dumbfounded by this, thinking that Director Li is still very popular!

For a moment I couldn’t tell who was the director and who was the actor.
