China Entertainment: Been working as a director since 03
Chapter 744 Let nature take its course
Chapter 744 Let nature take its course
A few days later, the filming of Little Flower Mulan was completed.
This is just a role, so there is no wrap party.
However, Liu Yifei was still very considerate and paid for a small wrap-up dinner for the little girl and her parents out of his own pocket.
She said that since they met it was fate, mainly because the little girl looked so much like her in the past.
Even their life experiences are a bit similar. When she was a teenager, she entered the entertainment industry under the arrangement of her mother.
The girl, who was also in her teens and had ignorant acting skills, was uploaded to a short video platform by her parents and became a small internet celebrity with hundreds of thousands of fans.
Liu Yifei saw his own shadow in this little girl.
In addition to Liu Yifei, Aunt Liu, the little girl and her parents, Li Yu and Cao Qing were also present at this small wrap-up party.
The little girl didn't have any special reaction. She was just a teenager and didn't understand the adult world.
Her parents were different; they were very emotional.
Their daughter had only played a small role, and everything was over. They hadn't expected anyone to hold a wrap party for them.
Liu Yifei came to the wrap-up party, as did director Cao Qing and the even more powerful director Li Yu.
This made them feel flattered. They even imagined that it might be possible that their daughter had been noticed by Li Yucao Qing and Liu Yifei, and that they wanted to make her a big star.
Unfortunately, they soon discovered that this was just an ordinary dinner party. Li Yu, Cao Qing and Liu Yifei did not mention anything about letting their daughter enter the entertainment industry at the dinner table.
Instead, the little girl's parents couldn't sit still.
Her mother was the first to speak: "Two great directors, and Miss Liu, do you think our daughter is suitable to be an actress? We plan to develop her in the direction of an actress."
Her father also said: "If the two directors' companies sign artists, we can potentially transfer the contracts to their companies."
Obviously, they had done their homework and knew that Li Yu's company would sign artists.
They also knew that Li Yu had a reputation for making anyone he helped become famous, and if their daughter could sign a contract with Li Yu's company.
If Li Yuqiang gives her some support, maybe their daughter can become a big star.
However, the information they obtained was from many years ago, and Li Yu’s company has not signed any artists for several years.
"My company did sign artists in the past, but after the contracts of those artists expired, my company did not renew the contracts with them, nor did it sign new artists," Li Yu explained.
Signing artists was a decision made in the company's early stages to maximize profits, and it was cheaper to use our own artists at the time.
Because director Li Yu was not very famous at the time, when he invited famous actors, people thought it was a third-rate crew and were unwilling to take a second look if the money was not enough.
Later, Li Yudu became a big director. When he invited people to act in his movies, many of them were willing to reduce their pay, and some even refused to pay.
Even if they have become big, if they still use their own artists to make their own movies, do not use other people's artists, do not allow others to invest, and eat alone, they will not be able to survive for long.
We should give some meat to others appropriately, so that we can make money together in the long run.
Just like Huayi, Li Yu and Feng Xiaogang had some unpleasantness before, but Huayi never stabbed Li Yu in the back.
Because the conflict between Li Yu and Feng Xiaogang is only a conflict between two people and it has not risen to the level of confrontation between two companies.
What's more, those things were all started by Feng Xiaogang, and Huayi knew it was in the wrong. Moreover, when Li Yu was making movies, he would also use Huayi's actors, such as Wang Baoqiang, who became famous in the film industry after starring in "Detective Chinatown" co-produced by Li Yu and Wang Jing.
They are stupid enough to have nothing better to do than to stab Li Yu in the back, as he is the one who can bring benefits to their company.
"Her talent is average, and girls change a lot when they grow up. Her appearance hasn't been fixed yet. Do you understand what I mean?" Cao Qing was not just hinting, he was stating it directly.
The little girl is still young now, and she might become ugly when she grows up.
Although it sounds a bit harsh, it is possible that this will happen.
There are many child stars who are very cute when they are young, but become indistinguishable from the crowd when they grow up.
"Does your family have any background?" Liu Yifei interrupted and asked a question.
"There's no background at all. My husband and I are both teachers in a small county town." The girl's mother replied.
"If you don't have a background, you have to think carefully about sending your daughter into the entertainment industry. The entertainment industry is a big dye vat. If you don't have enough strength, it will be difficult to stay pure once you enter this big dye vat.
Let me give you an example. Director Cao chose your daughter to play the role of Mulan.
This is because you are relatives of Director Cao’s cousin’s bride, and Director Cao is a good person too.

If you change to another director, you may have to pay something if you want to get the role.
Your acting skills are average, and you have no background or support, so why would they choose you? The entertainment industry is not short of beautiful people.
There are many beautiful people who have been acting for half their lives and are still playing supporting roles. "
Liu Yifei said so much because he probably really saw his own shadow in this little girl and hoped that she could choose a job that she was interested in when she grew up.
It was obvious that the girl's father was a daughter slave. After hearing the big star Liu Yifei hint that the entertainment industry was a dark place, that it was difficult to get in without a background, and that one had to make many sacrifices to become famous, he immediately backed off.
How could she push her daughter into such a dark place?
Under Liu Yifei's persuasion, the girl's parents gave up the idea of sending their daughter into the entertainment industry.
They are just in a momentary impulse and only see the bright side of the stars, so they are easier to persuade.
Also, they are very good parents, while some weird parents will do anything for money.
For example, Mei Yanfang's mother even sold Mei Yanfang's underwear for money after Mei Yanfang passed away.
It sounds ridiculous, but it is true.
Li Yu didn't say anything to persuade others, because he didn't want to interfere in other people's lives.
Afterwards, Liu Yifei asked Li Yu: "Do you think I just changed the fate of a person's life? If that little girl doesn't do well when she grows up, will she and her parents blame me?"
"Don't think too much. They are already small internet celebrities, and they live better than many ordinary people. After the release of "Mulan", they will take advantage of the popularity and maybe become big internet celebrities. As long as they don't do anything naughty and seize the opportunity, they can make more money in a few years than others can make in their lifetime.
However, human desires are endless, and it is hard to say whether they will not regret giving up entering the entertainment industry in the future.
What I want to say is that you have persuaded them and convinced them, so it is useless to say all these, just let nature take its course. "
Li Yu shook his head and said.
