The King of Directors 2000

Chapter 260 Slack

Qingdao Binhai KTV Box No. [-], a group of men and women wearing masks came today, their temperament is different from ordinary people, they seem to be stars.

Many KTV waiters were very curious, lying at the door and looking in through the glass window, but the group of people sat inside, no one went to sing, they couldn't see clearly.

Almost two years have passed.

The Green Rice stars gathered here again. Compared with the gathering that Li Shengyao experienced last time, it can be said that it has changed a lot.

This time there was an extra Qin Lan, who came to Qingdao to celebrate the New Year as Brother Xiao Ming's girlfriend.

In addition, the biggest change is the core change.

Last time Xia Yu sat in the middle bragging, but this time the one sitting in the middle is Jian Bingbing.

Xia Yu has been making movies before, and even won the Best Actor in Venice, with a high status.

But now?
He has filmed TV dramas last year and this year, with mediocre ratings, mediocre response, and mediocre word-of-mouth.

And "Mobile Phone" starring Yan Bingbing won more than 4000 million box office in less than a month, and now it has ranked second in the year, second only to "Harry Potter".

This movie is currently very popular, and Jian Bingbing has also gained a very high topic.

As a matter of course, she became the hottest star in Qingdao.

When Li Shengyao and Chen Xun first came over, Jia Bingbing pulled him to sit in the middle, but Li Shengyao refused, with the same reason as before.

He can't speak Qingdao dialect, so everyone has to accommodate him in the middle of the sitting.

He just sits on the side.

In this way, Jian Bingbing, Wang Yan, and Qin Lan sat in the middle, Brother Xiao Ming and Xia Yu were in the second echelon, while Li Shengyao, Chen Xun, and Huang Bo Gaohu on the other side were in the third echelon.

The last time they came here, they turned on roller lights, but this time they didn't turn on such dark and uncertain lights, they just turned on bright incandescent lights.

Under the bright light, Yan Bingbing sat in the middle, talking about the interesting things she saw and heard. She was already glowing white, but now she is even more beautiful.

This point is actually not yet the Chinese New Year, today is 28, but Brother Yan Bingbing Xiaoming will be busy after several years, and will have to go out to start work early.

We got together years ago.

Last year Li Shengyao took Chen Xun back to his hometown to celebrate the New Year, and this year he came to Chen Xun's house to celebrate the New Year.

Last year, Chen Xun bought her parents a small three-story house with a yard in Qingdao. This year, the two elders live downstairs, and Li Shengyao and Chen Xun live upstairs, which is much more convenient.

The two of them were idle and bored, so they came here to listen to other people's bragging, which can be regarded as killing time.

Huang Bo has entered Yanjing Film Academy to study, but he doesn't seem to be more confident, on the contrary he seems to be more inferior than before.

He is in the college dubbing class of Yanjing Film Academy, but his main purpose is to learn acting.

It should be hit by the handsome men and beauties in the acting class.

At this time, Huang Bo was like a waiter, opening the wine bottle, pouring wine, handing tissues, and wiping the table, appearing very humble.

Fortunately, all the people present have good personalities, and Yan Bingbing joked with Huang Bo from time to time to make Huang Bo relax a little.

Compared with Xia Yu sitting in the C seat before, Yan Bingbing is obviously better at greeting people, chatting and drinking while chatting, the overall atmosphere is very good.

The conversation was almost over, Yan Bingbing glanced at Li Shengyao, seeing that his expression was not bad, he tentatively asked: "Director Li, what kind of movie are you going to make next year?"

When the others heard the words, they all looked over.

Except for Chen Xun, others didn't know that Lee Sing Yew would enter the film industry next year.

Li Shengyao smiled, "I haven't thought about it yet, but I'm sure it's a commercial film."

Brother Xiaoming's eyes lit up, "Director, there is a role suitable for me, so don't forget me."

"will not."

Others saw that Li Shengyao was so easy to talk, and they all expressed that they had time, and Li Shengyao was always on call, and even Xia Yu hesitated to express this meaning.

Li Shengyao accepted everything and said that there is no problem.

Those who celebrate the Chinese New Year will not die if they say a few nice words. Anyway, when they leave this room, Director Li will forget it.

It's not that this group of people can't do it, but now that Fenghua's family has a great career, he must first choose his own people, and the outsiders he knows are the second choice.

Jian Bingbing was also very happy to hear Li Shengyao's words. She felt that Li Shengyao was saving face, so she raised her glass, "Director, you don't need to drink, I will toast you three glasses."

She then gulped down three glasses in one go.

Li Shengyao used to be curious about how these people drank so much wine, how could they hold it in their stomachs, but now he was not curious anymore, and nodded with a smile.

The others chatted again, this time mainly about next year's movies.

Zhou Xingxing is preparing for "Kung Fu", Lao Mouzi is preparing for "House of Flying Daggers", Feng Xiaogang is going to shoot "A World Without Thieves", and there are many co-productions, such as Tsui Hark's "Seven Swords Under Tianshan".

It is said that this film not only invited stars from the Mainland, Taiwan and Taiwan, but also stars from the peninsula, including Song Seung Heon and Kim So Yeon.

Tsui Hark has been silent for more than two years since "Legend of Shushan" failed at the box office in 01. This time he finally couldn't bear it and wanted to make a big hit.

Except for Yan Bingbing who has movie resources, others including Xia Yu don't have any now.

Speaking of these blockbusters at this time, everyone is very envious.

Li Shengyao listened quietly, but later felt that it was meaningless. He thought that Jay Chou had already debuted, and KTV should have Jay Chou's song, so he said hello, and then went to sing.

Other than Chen Xun, the others had never heard Li Shengyao sing, and they were a little surprised to see Li Shengyao singing Jay Chou's song.

At this time, although Jay Chou was popular, more people said that he could not read clearly and sang indiscriminately.

When they saw Li Shengyao singing Jay Chou's songs, they were naturally surprised. They never expected that the aloof director Li would sing Jay Chou's songs. Shall we learn a few songs?
Naturally, Li Shengyao didn't care about other people's opinions, he acted like the people behind him were big melons, and sang narcissistically.

"It's nice, it's nice, let's play another song."

It was just a song, and the others applauded like fans.

Li Shengyao laughed, took a sip of tea and continued singing.

So other people continued to chat around, and Li Shengyao and Chen Xun went to sing.

Three hours later, Chen Xun lay limp on the bed, eyes full of love.

Li Shengyao was lying beside him, humming "Ninja" softly.

He sang for half an hour tonight. After the party was over, he put down the microphone and returned to Chen Xun's house. He was in a good mood and hummed a few lines.

Chen Xun stretched out his hand and lightly touched Li Shengyao's chest, "Will "Seven Swords Under Tianshan" succeed next year?"

Tsui Hark has been sharpening his sword for three years, and his momentum is very strong, like Li Ming, Yang Caini and the others are said to have started practicing horseback riding and sword dancing this year.

Chen Xun was curious.

Li Shengyao shook his head, "It's hard to pay back, but Tsui Hark can restore some reputation."

Li Shengyao remembers that the film invested 8000 million yuan, and the final box office just passed [-] million yuan. In addition to the twists and turns of Hong Kong Island, there is no way to return the cost.

However, the action scenes of this movie are still very good, and Tsui Hark's reputation among movie fans is better than before.

But in the minds of investors, he is an unlucky guy, and he didn't make a big movie in the next four or five years.

"It seems that even if you prepare carefully, you may not be able to succeed."

Hearing this, Chen Xun couldn't help sighing.

A great director like Tsui Hark gathers stars from both sides of the strait, three regions and the peninsula, so he can't make up for it, which is really easy to make people feel emotional.

Li Shengyao was silent when he heard the words.

Ever since he signed a contract with China Film Group and was sure to get half of the mainland benefits from "Pirates of the Caribbean", he has been a lot more relaxed. These days, he is even more lazy, dragging Chen Xun around Qingtao every day.

He is too relaxed.

Tsui Hark has been preparing for so long but failed. Although he is a time traveler, he may not be able to make "My Uncle" well.

Only then did he suddenly realize that he was going to get nervous.

The script of "My Uncle" has been completed, but the hero and heroine have not yet been determined.

He thought about it, then sat up and put on his clothes.

"I have something to think about, you go to bed first."

Chen Xun was not surprised, "Okay."

Li Shengyao took out the ballpoint pen and notebook from the suitcase, closed his eyes, and thought about the male and female protagonists of "My Uncle".

The actors and actresses of China Entertainment passed by one by one, and he quickly memorized the names of several people.

Seeing the names of two of them, he paused slightly.

"It's the last TV series, do you want to make a big one and invite him over?"
