I am a leader in the entertainment industry

Chapter 85: I’ll shoot it myself

Beijing Miracle Media Company

Li Qi poured the ground coffee powder into three cups, added hot water, and added appropriate amounts of milk and sugar according to the other party’s taste habits.

Li Qi obediently delivered three cups of fragrant coffee to Xiao Jiaer and Yang Xue one by one, and also obediently took the initiative to call”Sister Jiaer”.”、”Sister Yang Xue”

Xiao Jiaer and Yang Xue both took the coffee, and Li Qi sat back in his seat.

Li Qi tried to please them deliberately, and insisted on making them a cup of coffee, and even handed the coffee to them personally. Li Qi didn’t say anything, but Xiao Jiaer and Yang Xue knew it in their hearts. No one said anything.

After the other person drank a few sips, Li Qi stood up, took two copies of the script”520″ and handed them over, saying,”I want to make a TV series.”

Yang Xue laughed loudly upon hearing this, and while picking up a script, she said,”I never thought you would be able to flatter someone!”

Li Qi smiled, picked up the coffee and sniffed it, then took a sip, put it down and said,”Speaking of which, you guys are still living a romantic life. I’m still not used to drinking this. Drinking tea is more suitable for me. It quenches thirst and relieves greasiness, but I still can’t taste that kind of kung fu.”

Xiao Jiaer patted the script of The Legend of the New White Snake and said,”I’ve heard you talk about this script several times, and today I can finally see it with my own eyes!”

At this time, the two began to read the script seriously, and the only sound in the room was the rustling of papers.

After a while

Xiao Jiaer raised her head, took the script in her hand, patted it, and said seriously:”I read it three times… It’s a good script!” After a pause, she put the script down, picked up the coffee and took a sip, and then said:”The actors are right, the director is right, this drama can’t be wrong!”

Li Qi heard this and said with a smile:”I plan to shoot it myself, not looking for an outside director”

He had seen the most classic version of this play and had even watched it dozens of times. Although the time and space were different and the era was different, that classic version could not be copied completely, but it was definitely the best reference!

This advantage is something that even the best director would not have.

Moreover, he applied to the Beijing Film Academy in the hope of recreating a classic. Although he did not get into the directing department, the professional studies in the past few years have made him believe that he has made the necessary professional accumulation and can challenge this project!

Yang Xue asked,”You want to direct it yourself? What about the investment? You are an actor now, and you have no directing experience. No one outside will be willing to invest in this play.”

Xiao Jiaer sighed, raised her hand and rubbed her forehead, and said:”Li Qi, I know you are talented and you are a good actor, but do you know how much investment it takes to film this play?”

Li Qi responded,”I haven’t asked anyone to make a serious estimate yet. I did a calculation myself. If I spend sparingly, it’s probably over 30 million, probably within 35 million. I’m sure I can get it.”

“But… the investment in this play is too huge! Costumes are expensive, and you have a lot of martial arts special effects here, which is even more expensive!……”

“My two sisters, although”Startling by Each Step” was very successful, the outside world basically attributed the success to Tang Ren.

Miracle became famous because of it.

The previous”The Lotus Lantern” was not to mention that it was a work of CCTV, so Miracle Media must show its own achievements.

This”Legend of the New White Snake” must be 100% produced by Miracle Media.

I have been conceiving this play and this script for two or three years.

In fact, I went to film school just to make it well, so I must shoot it myself!

And I am fully confident that I can make this play well.

Please believe me and support me!

” Li Qi said emotionally.

《The copyright of”Startling by Each Step” was sold to many TV stations, so Miracle Media was no longer short of money. Xiao Jiaer and Yang Xue also knew that the company had money….

Therefore, it was only 30 or 40 million. If Li Qi wanted to use the money to buy a villa, neither Yang Xue nor Xiao Jiaer would say anything.

But investing, especially investing in TV dramas, is obviously another matter!

So, seeing that the two of them were almost silent, neither expressing opposition nor support, Li Qi opened his file cabinet and put a pile of storyboards that he had drawn one by one in the past year on the table,”Look, every one of them was drawn by me.””

Li Qi’s painting ability had been mercilessly ridiculed by Xiao Jiaer many times, so if you really want to say how much skill and talent he has in drawing these storyboards, that’s definitely a joke. Li Qi didn’t waste points to redeem this skill for painting.[]

But the 32 episodes, with an average of 40 to 50 storyboards per episode, add up to a thick stack of more than 1,300 pictures, all of which were drawn by Li Qi himself. It’s not art, but his dedication is evident in every stroke and every line.

Seeing this thick stack of storyboards, Xiao Jiaer and Yang Xue were already dumbfounded. When they heard that all of them were drawn by Li Qi himself, they were even more confused. When they each grabbed a book and opened it to read a few pages, they looked like they were struck by lightning.——

“Are you sure you want to shoot a TV series?”Xiao Jiaer asked

Yang Xue also raised her head and looked at Li Qi in surprise.

Li Qi spread out the five fingers of his right hand and pressed them firmly on the stack of storyboards on the coffee table. He said sincerely,”I spent a year and five months drawing these things! This play is so beautiful!���From the time I first conceived the idea in my mind to now, it’s been one month and two years”

After a pause, he said:”I have been working very hard.”
