The King of Directors 2000

Chapter 210 Vice President of the Directors Association

Above the nine heavens, white clouds piled up, forming horses, sailing boats, palaces, and mountains.

Huge clouds of gas entangle these clouds from bottom to top.

From noon to afternoon, Tianhe changes continuously, just like changing faces in Sichuan opera.

In a box at the Jin Jiang Hotel in Shanghai, a dozen people were sitting around a large table.

Knowing about internal entertainment, one can definitely recognize that this group of people are the big names in the mainland TV drama director circle.

Chen Jialin, Zhang Guoli, Lee Shengyao, Yang Yazhou, Zheng Xiaolong, Hu Mei, Zhao Benshan...

If you study them, you can find that the TV dramas of this group of directors are ranked in the top ten in the Mainland every year.

In terms of age, Lee Seung Yew should be the youngest.

In terms of qualifications, he is also at the bottom.

But in terms of commercial achievements, he is No.1.

That's why he was able to sit among the group this time.

At this time, there was a large table of dishes, and all the directors chatted and ate.

On Li Shengyao's left is Zhang Guoli, and on the right is Chen Jialin.

Needless to say, Zhang Guoli can be said to be the most popular TV drama actor in the Mainland in recent years. Almost every year, he has two or three TV dramas with the top ten ratings.

And Chen Jialin is the director of "Kangxi Dynasty", "Nurhachi" and "The Last Empress".

These two people are the main initiators of this gathering, and they are also Guo Jia's artist representatives.

This time, calling so many TV drama directors from the mainland to come over is because they want to establish the China TV Drama Directors Association.

Regarding this association, it was not established until [-] in Lee Sheng Yew's previous life.

The Mainland Film Directors Association was actually established in [-].

It goes without saying that there are certainly more TV directors than movie directors.

It's just that TV drama directors still have to be more conservative after all, and no association has been established.

But anyway, compared to Li Shengyao's previous life, it has been six years earlier.

Li Shengyao's time travel brought some positive changes.

Zhang Guoli had given him a breath in advance, this time he will be one of the vice presidents.

Li Shengyao was quite satisfied with this position.

In his previous life, Chen Jialin was the president of the first TV Drama Directors Association, and Zhang Guoli and others were the vice presidents. There were seven or eight vice presidents, and three to forty executive directors, almost all the more outstanding directors in the mainland. The directors of TV dramas have caught them all.

The TV Drama Directors Association will also have some initiatives, such as promoting the development of the industry, conducting research and discussions on the art, achievements, and phenomena of TV dramas, strengthening the awareness of self-discipline within the industry, and improving professional ethics, etc.

But the most important thing is to establish a "recognition conference for TV drama directors".

Naturally, this commendation conference not only commends the director, but also honors the excellent TV series, actors, and screenwriters in the director's eyes. Generally speaking, it is similar to the Golden Eagle Award and Magnolia Award.

If it is done, it will be at the same level as the Golden Eagle Award and Magnolia Award.

There is no doubt that it will be of great benefit to all the directors present.

Because when the time comes, these directors will be the judges, the referees, and the organizers.

In Li Shengyao's previous life, this commendation conference was held twice, but it was canceled due to some reasons.

The two sessions were not bad, with a strong momentum, many star actors have passed, and the awards are presented in a decent manner.

As for why it was discontinued, it was naturally because some people didn't want the directors to come and share the cake.

At this time, Zhang Guoli was chatting with Li Shengyao in a low voice, thinking about the future, especially this commendation conference, he already had a lot of plans, and planned to hold it in January next year.

There are many artists under the Fenghua Film and Television Company, Zhang Guoli hopes that Lee Shengyao can lead people there to make a strong presence.

Lao Zhang's idea is good, and Lee Sing Yew also admitted that the mainland really needs a TV drama directors' association.

But he knows that the mainland already has Golden Eagle, Magnolia, and Feitian, so there is no need for additional TV drama awards.

The more successful this Television Directors Guild commendation conference, the shorter its lifespan.

But this matter has little to do with Lee Sheng Yew, he is not the organizer.

In fact, even Lao Zhang, Chen Jialin and the others were not suppressed after the previous life commendation conference was closed, and the identities of the two were there.

If he can share some rewards with his artists, Li Shengyao is willing to join in the fun.

Hearing what Old Zhang said at this time, Li Shengyao agreed with a smile, saying that he would definitely lead people there when the time came.

Hearing this, Zhang Guoli breathed a sigh of relief, and exchanged glances with Chen Jialin on the other side.

There was excitement in both of their eyes.

Li Shengyao can now be said to be the number one TV drama director in domestic entertainment, whether he agrees with it is very important to them.

Li Shengyao joined and led others to help out, which represented the approval of the most popular TV drama production company in the Mainland.

At that time, it will definitely attract more directors and actors to join.

Li Shengyao saw it, smiled and ate the food.

Becoming the vice president of the China TV Drama Directors Association, even if there is no real benefit, it is just a false name, and it is also a status symbol.

The hierarchical system in China has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people for 5000 years.

It is good for him to take this position.

However, like Zhang Guoli and others, trying to establish a TV drama award similar to the Golden Eagle Award and Magnolia, naturally it is impossible to succeed.

Li Shengyao didn't intend to follow up, he was just joining in the fun, if he really wanted to do it seriously, if he wanted to stand up, he wasn't interested.

His layout is to promote Huaxia culture and establish external sales channels.

If he succeeds, he not only makes money lying down, but also has one of the best status in the entertainment industry, so there is no need to be greedy for immediate benefits.

Besides, what if the commendation meeting for the director of this TV series is a success?

There is one president, seven or eight vice presidents, and twenty or thirty directors, but when they compete for interests, there must be some intrigue.

Tired, not worth it.

"Clap clap clap!"

The food is almost eaten, and the wine is almost drunk.

Zhang Guoli clapped his hands, stood up, glanced at everyone, and then said expectantly: "Everyone, the purpose of calling the big guys over this time is to establish a directors' association for us TV drama workers. Everyone knows about this, so let's Make a vote first, whether to support the establishment of this directors' association, if you agree, raise your hand."

Everyone raised their hands, and the vote passed unanimously.

Zhang Guoli was overjoyed, and then said: "Okay, that's it for this matter. We have a total of [-] people here today. We are the founders of the TV Drama Directors Association this time. Next, Chen Jialin, Director Li Shengyao and I will apply to the above. Create a directors' association."

The crowd applauded.

Li Shengyao immediately stood up and glanced at Zhang Guoli, "Director Zhang is too polite. I really can't represent everyone. I'm too young and too young to understand many things. Let Director Hu Mei do it."

Several directors who were close friends with Hu Mei spoke in agreement.

Although Hu Mei is a woman, she has always liked to be competitive, so she stood up when she heard the words, "Okay, I will accept this task on behalf of Nv Tongzhi."

Women are half the sky, it is impossible for this TV drama directors association to have women as its leadership.

Zhang Guoli understood what Hu Mei meant, his eyelids twitched, and he looked helplessly at Li Shengyao.

He originally thought that young Lee Seung Yew didn't like such relationships.

In this way, he and Chen Jialin were the main organizers of this matter. Unexpectedly, Li Shengyao brought Hu Mei in.

Zhang Guoli took a deep breath, acknowledged the matter, and continued: "The main task of the Directors' Association is to help the development of the mainland TV drama industry. We must not only regulate ourselves, but also guide others. I have a proposal. We Organize a TV Drama Directors Association Commendation Conference, held in January and February every year, to commend outstanding directors, actors, screenwriters and other industry practitioners in the previous year."

"What do you all think? Raise your hand if you agree."

This time the applause was even louder. The directors were not fools, and they all wanted to go on stage to have fun, and they all passed unanimously.

"Okay, then let's nominate a chairman first. My suggestion is director Li Shengyao. He is young and capable, and he is suitable to lead us old bones forward."

Li Shengyao secretly laughed in his heart, and before the other directors expressed their opinions, he stood up immediately, and then said: "Director Zhang is polite, you are polite, I am really too young, I have never been a leader, and the tallest since I was a child is the group leader." , I really can’t be the president of the association, I think Director Chen is the right one, his ability and leadership are here, so he can lead us forward bravely and make mainland TV directors an even better group.”

After Li Shengyao finished speaking, someone answered immediately and echoed his words.

Zhang Guoli made a summary and asked everyone to show their hands to vote. As a result, Chen Jialin passed unanimously and became the temporary chairman of the TV Drama Directors Association.

Then Lao Zhang said something more, announcing the structure of the association, such as the vice president, such as the directors.

After hearing about the quota, the directors were even more happy.

After Zhang Guoli finished speaking, he took his seat. He then whispered to Li Shengyao: "Director Li, there is an interview later, do you have time?"

"Uh, I don't have time, I have to rush back to Hengdian."

Hearing this, Zhang Guoli basically understood Li Shengyao's attitude. He was a little bit regretful, but more excited. Li Shengyao had no interest. He was different.

The directors chatted more and more eagerly. They were mainly interested in next year's directors' association award ceremony, and they were talking about this year's outstanding actor TV series.

Holding a teacup, Li Shengyao listened quietly, and occasionally said a few words, but he didn't say much, appearing calm.

Opposite him, there was a big guy sitting, it was Zheng Xiaolong. Old Zheng was also very quiet. He noticed Li Shengyao's appearance and gave Li Shengyao a wink.
