China Entertainment: Been working as a director since 03

Chapter 62 Director Li’s Little Notebook
  "I have brought the script for Legend of Sword and Fairy. How about Director Li and Shi Shi take a look at it first?"

Mr. Cai has been staring at Li Yu's face since he just spoke.

He found that Li Yu did not show any disgust, so he struck while the iron was hot and took out a mutilated version of the script from his bag.

This is an industry practice to prevent the script from being changed and used by others. It is not allowed to read the entire script before signing the contract.

Although the ratings for the first round of Xian Jian Yi's star broadcast were not good, it could even be considered a bad one.

But as time went by, after multiple rounds of broadcasts and word-of-mouth fermentation, Xianjianyi achieved very impressive results.

If Li Yu joins, it may be possible to reverse the shortcomings of the poor early ratings of Sword of Sword One.

He has two hit dramas in his hands. He only needs to name himself as a producer or something in Fairy Sword. He doesn’t need to buy a navy. Naturally, the media will help promote them.

This is the benefit of becoming popular.

Li Yu already had a plan in mind, but he had to maintain a calm and calm attitude and keep the initiative in his own hands.

He calmly took over the script of Xian Jianyi from Mr. Cai, and when he saw it, it was indeed the TV series he remembered.

Li Yu read it from beginning to end and then handed it to Liu Shishi and asked her to read it too.

Liu Yifei's "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" hasn't started filming yet.

Now Liu Yifei only has two popular dramas, "The Family" and "Dragon".

After the movie "Ghost" is finished, Liu Shishi is sure to be a big hit.

Just the role of the ghost Tang Churan is enough to make Liu Shishi one of the most popular actresses in the industry, and her salary will last for ten years.

Adding Zhao Ling'er from the Legend of Sword and Fairy to the top, I'm afraid he will surpass Liu Yifei without the divine eagle.

Even after the broadcast of "The Condor", Liu Shishi, who has two high-quality works and two high-quality characters, will not fall behind in the face of the perfect immortal and is fully capable of fighting.

Li Yu felt that it was getting more and more interesting.

He was thinking that if Fairy Sword Yi was broadcast in front of Shendiao, with Li Yu himself and Liu Shishi sitting in, the first broadcast ratings would be much better than in the original time and space.

Will those immoral and smoky media give Liu Yifei the title of Little Liu Shishi? After all, their styles are so similar.

When Mr. Cai saw Li Yu showing the script to Liu Shishi, she thought there was something going on, and joy crept onto her brows.

This shows that Li Yu is very optimistic about this script and has the idea of ​​letting Liu Shishi play Zhao Ling'er.

"Director Li, the script is definitely a good one. I have had it polished many times by professionals.

It depends on you whether you want to work together to create a big one. "

Li Yu is really interested in the project of Legend of Sword and Fairy.

Today, Mr. Cai arranged for Li Yu to join him.

Li Yu clearly remembered it in his little notebook.

"The quality of the book is indeed good. I wonder what actors Mr. Cai plans to use?"

Li Yu did not answer Mr. Cai's question, but asked back.

Regarding casting, many of the roles in this drama were decided by Mr. Cai herself, so she spoke without hesitation: "Li Xiaoyao, I plan to use Hu Ge from our company, this has not yet been decided.

Zhao Ling'er, if Director Li is willing to cooperate, it would be Shi Shi.

Lin Ruyue uses An Yixuan, Anu uses Liu Pingyan, Tang Yu uses Peng Yiyan, and Jiujianxian uses Xie Junhao. "

Li Yu has heard all the names Mr. Cai mentioned. After all, he is quite familiar with the Fairy Sword series. It can also be seen from the cast arrangement of Legend of Sword and Fairy that Mr. Tsai’s Sugar Man Company is deeply influenced by the Hong Kong and Taiwan circles at this stage.

The four actors mentioned later by Mr. Tsai are all Taiwanese actors.

Mr. Cai said that it has not yet been decided whether Hu Ge can play Li Xiaoyao, probably because of the strong opinions of investors.

Hu Ge is not famous. Some people even think that Hu Ge is not good-looking, which is very controversial.

Therefore, Mr. Cai has not been able to get the investment done since last summer.

She wanted to praise her family, but their investors didn't buy it.

In order to break the situation, Mr. Cai asked Li Yu to borrow Liu Shishi.

It is hoped that Liu Shishi’s participation will give investors confidence so that they can spend real money.

Li Yu pointed out the problem straight to the point: "Mr. Cai, your arrangement is very unfriendly to us, Shi Shi.

After our Shishi Ghost, it will definitely be a big hit, and Shishi's next drama will definitely be highly anticipated, so we have to be careful.

I won’t comment on Li Xiaoyao until I decide. As for the Taiwanese actors you mentioned, some of them have just debuted a few years ago. Isn’t it too much to say that they are not famous?
  We Shi Shi is the only popular person in the entire crew, so it’s not reliable no matter how you look at it!
  If this drama fails, won't it drag down our Shi Shi career? "

"..."

Mr. Cai was already getting nervous.

Li Yu was much more difficult to deal with and much smarter than she thought.

She is already a little uneasy. Can her three-win goal still be achieved? Li Yu's attitude made her feel really unsure.

She has no choice but to use those Taiwanese actors. Basically all her company's projects have some investment from Hong Kong and Taiwan.

What can she do if people ask her to support them?
  "Of course, I believe Mr. Cai's Sugar Man Company has the ability to produce a good drama. After all, Mr. Cai's team is professional."

Li Yu's change of subject brought a smile back to Mr. Cai's face.

However, before Mr. Cai could be happy for a few seconds, Li Yu silenced Mr. Cai with another question: "But... the most important point is, has Mr. Cai finished the investment? You can't do it if you don't have money!"

Mr. Cai broke through the defense on the spot, and the confidence he brought when he stepped towards the door of the private room was completely shattered.

"We are talking about it, and we can definitely talk about it."

She was already at a complete disadvantage, and she didn't even have the confidence to say this.

Li Yu looked like he had seen through her, and the next second he took the script back from Liu Shishi and turned it over again: "I told you, Sugar Man is fully capable of making a good drama.

If Mr. Cai is short of money, I would be willing to invest. "

Mr. Cai, who had been beaten by the CPU, was like a dry seedling encountering nectar, and his whole body became excited.

Is there such a good thing?
  Not only can Liu Shishi join the crew, but he can also get Li Yu's investment. Three wins become four wins, and it's all a win.

“However, I have some conditions. If there is a sequel to the Fairy Sword series in the future, our Hualiu Company has the priority to invest.

And I have to intervene in the arrangements of Fairy Sword and One Mile. "

Mr. Cai dared to mess with Li Liyu, so he wiped out the Fairy Sword series.

Li Yu, one of Tangren’s most successful IPs, has priority investment rights, so he will definitely not lose money!

By intervening in the arrangement of Xian Jian Yi, Li Yu wanted the TV series to become popular in the first round of broadcasts, instead of waiting for multiple rounds of reruns to slowly ferment.
