China Entertainment: Been working as a director since 03

Chapter 106: Don’t envy mandarin ducks, don’t envy immortals, I envy Mr. Hou every day

When talking about Brother Yu's care for him, Shi Shi puffed up his chest proudly.

"My mother and father both entrusted me to Brother Yu."

She has met her parents a long time ago. Her parents have a good impression of Brother Yu. Can Brother Yu treat her the same as he treats others?

By the way, Brother Yu’s parents, brother and sister-in-law seem to have returned to China two months ago.

At that time, Brother Yu was filming Star You in Star City.

When she was talking to Brother Yu on the phone, Brother Yu seemed to have said that her uncle and aunt were afraid of delaying Brother Yu's filming and being afraid that Brother Yu would be distracted, so they didn't meet Brother Yu. I heard they were back in their hometown to find work.

Thinking of this, Shi Shi was a little expectant and a little worried.

What should she do if Brother Yu one day wants to take her to see her uncle and aunt?

She didn't know what kind of people her uncle and aunt were and whether they would like her.

Shi Shi's brainstorming ability is very strong, and he has almost considered the name of the child when he is born in the future.

She will be eighteen in March next year, and she will be able to get the certificate in two years. Does Shi Shi think she should give it some thought?
  She wanted to get married. She got married relatively early among the Eight-Five Flowers, and she got married when her career was on the rise.

Hu Ge and Sun Li became even more envious after hearing what Shi Shi said.

I have met the parents.

It seems that Shi Shi not only wants to be the heroine of the movie, but also very likely to be the boss lady of Hualiu Company in the future. This can be called a real rise to the top in one step.

People are indeed different.

Neither Hu Ge nor Sun Li dared to ask about the incident between Shi Shi and Li Yu, for fear of being attacked.

After Li Yu flew back to the capital from Zhejiang Province, he met with an important figure in the company the next day.

A famous national first-level and third-level actor.

Although we Chinese do not have our own Gotham, we do have our own Batman.

That's right, sitting opposite Li Yu is President Hou Tianlai, known as the domestic Batman, Bruce Horn, famous foreign language scholar, and clear spring.

Last year's film "Women Are No Longer Silent" directly limited Mr. Hou's acting options.

Let Mr. Hou become an actor whose acting career is so narrow that it is enviable.

More than ten years later, the classic saying "I don't envy mandarin ducks, I don't envy immortals, I envy Mr. Hou every day" was even born on the Internet.

Li Yu planned to let Mr. Hou consolidate his acting career, so he was thinking of asking him to play a role in Signal.

Li Yu is already well-known in the TV industry.

Mr. Hou heard that Li Yu was looking for him to act, so he came over.

"Director Li, when people from your company approached me, they told me that the role I want to play is more outstanding, right?"

Mr. Hou has not read the script yet, and he is looking forward to it.

He heard rumors that this was a transformational work that Li Yu had high hopes for. It was a criminal investigation drama, with an investment of up to 20 million for only 20 episodes. It was a well-made production.

As an experienced actor, he likes this kind of drama.

It's challenging and enjoyable to perform.

After you perfectly create a character, you will feel a full sense of accomplishment.

"More outstanding? You are obviously the most outstanding character besides the male protagonist, veteran detective Yu Qingfeng. I guarantee that the audience will be deeply impressed by your role after watching it! The audience will not forget it ten years from now."

Li Yu is confident
  Mr. Hou was a little surprised, and the next second he showed a look of joy: "Hey! Co-writing Director Li is a big surprise for me, right?
  Then Director Li, I will act how you want me to act. Our country is a director-centered system, and the power of interpretation lies with the director. "

Li Yu was stunned for a moment, thinking why did this line sound familiar?
  Why is there a spring in the spring? I seem to have heard it somewhere.

These small details don't matter.

Li Yu immediately took out a script and asked Mr. Hou to read it first.

Hou Shugen is an ordinary farmer. His reputation and reputation in the village are very good.

Although he is taciturn and pays little attention to his wife and children verbally, he fulfills the responsibilities of a good father in his actions. He was a filial son to his parents and was famously filial in the village.

Hou always felt that this character was ordinary, an ordinary honest person.

It's hard for the audience to remember such an honest man who lives his life according to his duties. How can the audience not forget him even after ten years?
  Mr. Hou was very patient. He then looked down and saw the reversal.

Hou Shugen only has this image in this village.

Once outside the village, his inner demons were unleashed.

Every once in a year and a half, he would visit the city next to his hometown, specifically picking out young girls in their teens and twenties.

The methods are extremely cruel and the methods are extremely perverted.

From the 1990s to the first few years of the 2000s, a dozen innocent victims in their prime were killed.

During his long criminal career of more than ten years, his family did not notice anything strange, and the police never solved the case.

The case became an unsolved case.

Until the male protagonists Li Mingjie and Yu Qingfeng communicated across time and space through a walkie-talkie, and decided to solve this unsolved case that had been silent for many years.

This story was originally created by Li Yu and was used to replace the fourth case in the signal, the Hongliandong Serial Murder Case.

Li Yu's idea is the same as before. He does not follow the original version completely, but stands on the shoulders of giants and moves forward.

While the quality of the original signal is excellent, no film is perfect.

Signals also have shortcomings.

The ancestral shortcomings of Silla drama, excessive sensationalism and exaggerated performances, are still reflected in the signal.

What Li Yu has to do is to learn from each other's strengths and weaknesses, to take the essence and discard the dross!
  In addition, some cases in the signal may not necessarily be suitable for the domestic environment and cannot be applied completely mechanically. The legal and national conditions of the two countries are different.

For example, Signal’s first case was the kidnapping case of Kim Yoon Jung.

The screenwriter of Silla stuck a statute of limitations setting to create a tense atmosphere.

If the protagonist does not have enough evidence to arrest the real culprit before the statute of limitations expires, then the real culprit will completely escape once the statute of limitations expires.

It is different in China. In China, for some cases of relatively egregious nature, the litigation period can be extended to unlimited time.

Therefore, the first case Li Yu alone had to undergo extensive revisions.

In the fourth case starring Mr. Hou, Li Yu wrote a brand new story based on the domestic serial murder case in Xingzhou, Xia Province.

In reality, the serial murderer in Xingzhou committed his last murder a few years ago, then stopped, and was not caught and brought to justice until more than ten years ago.

The character setting of Hou Shugen in the play is very similar to this guy.

Li Yu hopes that the story he adapted from a real case can provide the police with a little inspiration.

If it was because of Li Yu's signal that the guy could be brought to justice sooner.

Then Li Yu can be regarded as making a little contribution to society.

Mr. Hou carefully read the script in his hand, which was Li Yu's version of the fourth case of Signal, without missing a word.

His evaluation is good! This script is so well written! He thought it was wonderful just by reading the text!
  Hou Shugen is like two sides of a coin, with great contrast between before and after.

On the one hand, there are simple and kind-hearted farmers.

On one side is a perverted murderer responsible for more than a dozen murders.

Every time he insults his victim, before he kills him, he will say in a very troubling and morbid way, "Don't be afraid!" I'll help you get out'.

It was clear that he was killing people with cruel means, but what he said from his mouth turned out to be a way to help others escape.

He completely regards himself as a savior who can save the suffering of the world. He is so perverted that he is outrageous!

The climax of this case was the moment when the heroine Wei Jing and the hero Li Mingjie arrested him.

Wei Jing put the gun against his forehead and told him what he had said more than a dozen times, 'This time, it's my turn to help you out.'
