Chapter 249: All villains

“It’s really interesting”

Wang Jing paused and added,”It’s very interesting, but the allusion is too obvious.”

“But I think if this script is filmed, the higher-ups will be happy.” Li Qi pointed to the roof.

Wang Jing was thoughtful and looked down at the script.

After a moment, he nodded and said,”You’re right. If I were in the upper echelons, I would definitely be happy if this script was made.”

“Brother Jing, are you interested in doing something?”

Li Qi asked Wang Jing to read his new script, not for Wang Jing’s comments, but to persuade Wang Jing to be the director.

After filming Yitian, Li Qi deepened his understanding of Wang Jing

This guy’s ability is really not exaggerated. If you are serious about making movies, as long as you pay him enough, he can really make them for you quickly and well.

The most important thing is to cooperate

As one of the investors, Li Qi is also willing to cooperate with this kind of director

When you meet a director like Wang Jiawei and Jiang Dabin, investing in talent is really hopeless.

Wang Jing did not agree immediately. He looked at Li Qi with some hesitation:”If this script is just an allusion to The Crossing, it’s fine. The key is that you are also copying Titanic.”

“《The slogan of”The Taiping” is also the Eastern version of”Titanic”》”Li Qi didn’t care

“His is just propaganda, your script is equivalent to malicious detoxification”

“There is absolutely no such thing. Brother Jing, don’t talk nonsense. My script is about something that happened in the East and has nothing to do with”Titanic”. The sinking of the Taiping was a public event. Wu Baige could film it, but I couldn’t?”

Wang Jing shook his head:”You can’t even fool a three-year-old child with this.”

It’s true that he can’t fool people, but Li Qi’s new script really makes him feel itchy.

“Li Qi, how did you come up with this script where everyone is a villain?”

“It’s very simple. The so-called Taiping was just a large ship full of deserters. They were fleeing from our country to other countries. The people on board were all losers who were defeated by our country. Why should I praise them? Of course I should criticize them to death..”

Li Qi doesn’t mind taking any opportunity to improve his favor with the higher-ups.

He couldn’t understand Wu Baige’s humanitarian spirit

A group of defeated people who insist on forcibly digging out their truth, goodness and beauty…isn’t that crazy?

This is just like the previous director Luchuan’s”Jinling! Jinling”, who insisted on filming the Jinling Massacre from the perspective of a Japanese soldier and tried to explore the shining points of the Japanese soldier’s humanity.

These directors call this art?

Li Qi doesn’t understand this kind of art. In his eyes, this kind of behavior is stupid!

I have never heard of the skewers director Li Qi in my life, so I guess I will never have the chance to disgust people.

But Wu Baige still became an internationally renowned director. The second part of”The Crossing” is now being reshoot. The most important thing is that Wu Baige ran into Li Qi.

Li Qi had nothing to do and just wanted to nail him to death.

Wu Baige’s”The Taiping” is a fictional story based on a real event, the sinking of the Taiping. At that time, China defeated the United States and the puppet government they supported and recovered the entire country. This news was not good news for many people.

Many people fled overnight, and the Taiping was their hope. (To read the exciting novels, go to Feilu Novel Network!)

Getting a ticket for the Taiping, leaving China, and going to a free and democratic country to breathe fresh air was what many people wanted at the time.

Half of the passengers on the ship were there because if they did not leave China, there was a high probability that they would be liquidated afterwards. The other half had a bad impression of China and were completely brainwashed, thinking that staying in China would be equivalent to continuing to be slaves. They were unwilling to do so and wanted to go to the Lighthouse Country to breathe fresh air.

Unfortunately, the Taiping did not achieve peace in the end. During the voyage, it collided with another passenger ship and sank into the sea.

Wu Baige’s story of”The Taiping” is based on this real event, and then fictionalized several characters to praise their great humanity in the face of the shipwreck and the great harm brought to them by the war.

A director of Wu Baige’s status would be careful about the scale even if he was disgusting, and would not have such obvious problems as”Legend of the Condor Heroes”, so the higher-ups would not stop him from filming because of such hidden values.[]

If we don’t even have this kind of tolerance, it will be impossible for literary and artistic works to flourish.

After all,”The Crossing” is a disaster film and a romance film on the surface. Such a film is likely to cause unnecessary conflicts and attention.

This is also the reason why Leshi dared to participate

But the above does not prevent, does not mean that the above supports

Li Qi doesn’t think such a movie will be welcomed by the top management, unless all the top management are traitors.

So he wrote a story about a group of villains called The Crossing.》

Anyway, the people in”The Taiping” are not our own people, so why should we praise them?

“.Do you still want to act yourself?” Wang Jing didn’t quite understand what Li Qi was thinking:”There are so few positive characters in this script. None of the main characters are good people.”

“Brother Jing, I was originally planning to play a villain. Li Qi said,”Since my debut, I have never played a pure villain. And I have filmed too many costume dramas, so I need a modern drama to balance it out.”

《Scarlet Heart》、《Lotus Lantern》、《New Legend of White Snake》、《The Return of the Condor Heroes has won three consecutive hits, and Li Qi’s image as a handsome man in ancient costume has been deeply rooted in people’s hearts. Many of his fans claim that”Er Ye alone beats the three beauties”, and the three beauties refer to the three people of the Four Beauties of Tianya except Li Qi.

Audiences and industry insiders all admit that his costume image is impeccable.

《After the release of”The Legend of the Dragon Saber: The Demon Cult Master” and”The Legend of the Dragon Saber: The King’s Reign”, this view will continue to deepen.

But his modern dramas are lackluster. So far, he has only played a supporting role in one movie, Crazy Stone. Not many people have seen him.

In the minds of many viewers, Li Qi has only acted in costume dramas and has never acted in modern dramas.

Li Qi will continue to take on many costume dramas in the future.”Nirvana in Fire” is already in his plan. He plans to modify it into a fictional version of”Game of Thrones” in ancient China, telling the game between monarch power and minister power from the perspective of an emperor or a prince.

It’s not about good or evil, it’s just about stance

After this drama is finished, Li Qi will surely have another big hit. He has the help of external plug-ins, so it is impossible for him to be a slouch. If the script is reviewed by a few experts who are good at writing serious dramas and political intrigues, it is impossible for the reputation to be low.

In this way, his image in ancient costume will really be deeply rooted in people’s hearts.

Fortunately, Li Qi plays a villain this time, and it is a villain in a modern drama. If he plays well, he won’t have to worry about his acting career for at least a few years.
