Chapter 221: The Male Number One is confirmed
As soon as Li Li's car turned into the community, he saw Song Meili looking around and touching it. It wasn't until a girl whispered to her that she greeted her with a smile.
"You're too early!"
After Li Li got out of the car, Nuan, Ma Weiwei and Huang Xiaomin got out of the car in turn, holding a large pile of loot in their hands.
Especially Ma Weiwei, her left and right hands were full, and her assistant was not there, so she had to hold it herself.
This time it was 100% genuine, she bought it very happily, and what surprised her was that he didn't expect Nuan to have so many luxury membership cards, and what surprised her even more was that the lunch that Nuan invited everyone to eat turned out to be a bowl of Malatang for 12 yuan.
It's delicious, but I always think it's weird.
Song Meili said happily: "Teacher Li, I received your invitation, don't say I'm in Hengdian, even if I'm in the United States, I have to fly back as soon as possible, right?" I came in a hurry, I didn't buy any gifts, I picked up a box of milk and some fruits in the city, don't you mind!"
Li Li smiled: "What's polite, let's go upstairs first, rest for a few minutes and then go to Taili, what time did you come by car?"
Ma Weiwei said: "It is estimated that she will leave in the middle of the night." β
"I came out of Hengdian at half past three. β
"I didn't go to Hangzhou at that time, someone sent you?"
"I rode an electric car to Hangzhou. β
Li Li smiled: "You are so bold, it is dark, and you are not afraid of running out of power halfway." β
"When I arrived at the airport, there was just no electricity, do you say that it was a coincidence? β
Everyone chatted for a while and came to the house.
As soon as Song Meili walked into the living room, she couldn't help but admire: "Wow, Teacher Li's house is really warm and beautiful, so spacious!"
Li Li smiled and didn't say anything, this time goodbye Song Meili, her state is completely different from when she was in Hengdian, she was a little depressed before, her attitude was not as enthusiastic as now, and she was not very good at stammering, but when we met again today, her mental state was exceptionally good, and her mouth was very sweet.
To tell the truth, the house that Li Li's family currently lives in is the worst of all the real estate, the room layout is very old, the decoration is barely passable, it is just a three-bedroom apartment of an ordinary family, and there is no shadow of a mansion.
The reason why they are still living here for the time being is because they don't want to move, because they planned to go to Beijing a few years ago.
There's really nothing to praise about this house, let's be honest.
"I wish I had such a big house!" Song Meili nested on the sand, and said very sincerely, "You don't know the situation of my family, my family of eight people is crammed into a 6o square house, when I go back to the mainland to go to college, the current dormitory is much more comfortable than at home, I really envy you rich people! β
At this time, Nuan Wen asked, "Where is your home?"
"Xiangjiang!"
"Incense...... Where is Xiangjiang? Why did you come to the mainland? I can't hear your accent?"
"My family immigrated to Hong Kong 10 years ago, but I went back to the mainland to study acting at university. β
"What do you do?"
"My family has a small shop in Central, which is close to home and convenient. β
Heung Kong Central 6o flat house...... Are you crying with us?
The crowd collapsed!
"What are your expressions? I won't be able to spend a penny of my family after graduation!"
"Okay, well, you rest first. Li Li pointed to the next bedroom, "It is estimated that you haven't slept for almost 24 hours, hurry up and take a nap and rest, let's go to Taili." β
"Teacher Li, I'm not sleepy! I'll go with you. β
"You can't do it in this state, the dark circles under your eyes are out. Raise your spirits, we still have to rehearse in the evening, and we will need you then!"
"Uh...... That's good. β
Leaving Song Meili at home, the group took a car and went straight to the radio and television center.
As soon as he walked into the hall, Song Dong greeted Li Li and said, "Xiaoli, how is it?
Li Li said: "I feel that Sister Yuanyuan has gained a lot. β
"That's right, Teacher Gao Yuanyuan is talking about the harvest of this trip in the lounge, saying that it has opened a new door to her cognition. β
Li Li asked, "When will the recording start?"
"Wait a minute!" Song Dong picked up the intercom, "Director, Li Li has returned to the stage, and the recording has begun." β
After receiving the news, the director shouted: "Attention departments, recording begins." β
As soon as Li Li and his entourage squeezed into the elevator, the cameramen hurriedly followed with the machine.
Ma Weiwei looked at the cameramen suspiciously, and asked Li Li, "This is the beginning?"
"Hmm!"
"You, don't you wear makeup?"
"It's behind the scenes, you don't need it. Besides, what's the problem?"
Seeing Li Li's bright eyes looking at him, his handsome face seemed to have healing magic, Ma Weiwei said seriously: "No!"
As soon as she got out of the elevator, Ma Weiwei suddenly pulled Li Li, "I just thought about it, to be honest, Mr. Li, you are the only male artist I have seen who looks better than makeup when he takes off his makeup." β
There are two concepts in front of the camera and behind the camera, the purpose of applying makeup is to highlight the charm of the facial contour on the screen, so it is necessary to properly "apply heavy makeup", the eyebrows should be painted heavier, and the face should be rubbed more three-dimensional, all for the sake of the camera, whether male or female artists need makeup.
However, this kind of heavy makeup is not suitable for daily life, and there will be a feeling of excessive force. Especially male artists.
However, Li Li definitely doesn't wear makeup when he is not on the show, and he doesn't even use men's facial cleanser.
Pushing open the door, Zhang Ziyi, Xu Zheng, and Zhang Jiayi were all there, and Gao Yuanyuan was chatting with them about what they had learned in the past two days.
It is clear from the faces of the three mentors that they have no real contact with the real life of Hengpiao, and they may see the sadness of Hengpiao every day, but who has the leisure to go deep into the lives of Hengpiao, to see their residences, to listen to their stories?
Seeing Li Li walk in, Gao Yuanyuan hurriedly asked, "Did you write me as mentally ill?" If you wrote it as mentally ill, did you give a little bit of warmth to the character who didn't give me?"
"Just look at it, teachers, my script is ready. β
Zhang Ziyi hurriedly stretched out her hand to take the script, "Show me quickly!"
Xu Zheng also said: "These days, we will wait for your script." β
Zhang Jiayi flipped a few pages, raised his head and said, "Xiaoli, are you going to pick actors?"
Li Li was stunned: "Teacher, can't you first make sure that there are no problems with the script before you can choose the main actors?"
Zhang Jiayi: "The script is no problem, go ahead." β
"......" Li Lixin said that such a thick script, you only read two pages, don't be so hasty!
Xu Zheng also raised his head and pointed at Ma Weiwei, "Ma Weiwei was invited by the show to assist?"
Li Li said: "That's not it, visit the class." β
"Oh, then hurry up and finalize the cast. β
Li Li: "...... Why don't you read it firstβ"
"It will take an hour to finish working on your script, so don't delay this time, you can go. Zhang Ziyi waved her hand.
"Uh...... All right. Li Li had no choice but to turn around and leave.
As Ma Weiwei, who came to visit the class hard, she stood aside cautiously, lowered herself and picked up a script on the coffee table, and read it carefully.
She especially wanted to win a role at this time, but she keenly realized that Li Li was easy-going on the outside but extremely determined in his heart, and wanted to get a role from Li Li to show his face on stage, unless he thought you could do it, it would be no fun.
Just as she was flipping through the script, the door of the lounge was knocked open again, and Chen Kaige walked in in a dusty manner, and he opened his mouth and asked, "Where is Xiaoli?"
"Director Chen, Li Li went to pick the actors, and the script was just delivered to us. β
"Oh. β
Ma Weiwei hurriedly said hello: "Hello Director Chen, I participated in the interview for your new play a few days ago." β
Chen Kaige nodded, "Remember, I'm not old and confused, and my memory is not bad." If there is a suitable role, we will let you know. β
"Thank you, Director Chen. Ma Weiwei bowed deeply.
An actor from an online drama, no matter how famous he is in an online drama, obviously feels that he has no status in the film and television industry.
Seeing this, Xia Xue asked at the right time: "Director Chen, are you going to shoot a new drama? Is it the new drama that makes Mr. Li the leading actor? Or is it another new drama?"
"Yes, it's the one that was promised to Li Li before. β
Xia Xue calmed down and asked, "Mr. Li didn't receive the notice of the audition, so I thought you had other plans." β
Chen Kaige asked, "What notice?!"
"Audition notice!"
"Audition notice? He doesn't need to audition, what do you want?"
Xia Xue exclaimed: "Don't you need it?"
Of course, the investor did not have any opinion, and the team unanimously agreed and finalized. When the management heard that the male lead of this drama planned to invite Li Li, they said that if they couldn't invite Li Li, they would withdraw their investment!"
Xu Zheng flipped through the script and exclaimed: "It's really awesome, it's the first time I've heard that people who have never filmed film and television dramas have been so affirmed by the management for the first time they filmed." β
Zhang Ziyi said: "Isn't Xiao Wu too? As a singer, the first time he made a cross-border movie, it caused a sensation. β
After Xu Zheng sneered slightly, he quickly suppressed the expression on his cheeks.
Zhang Ziyi said again: "How much do you plan to give your salary, but you can't give less!"
"Aren't you going to talk about it?" Chen Kaige took out a script from his bag and shook it, "The scripts have all been brought to Li Li, a month ago, Li Li's agent told me, saying that they Teacher Li took over the play, and they must read the script first." It is said that it is a respect for art, but also a respect for the director.
No, the script is waiting for Li Li to see it. β
The three words "Mei Lanfang" on the cover of the script shook in front of Ma Weiwei, she felt this itch in her heart, how much she hoped that her name could enter this book, even if it was just a third girl.
Zhang Ziyi smiled: "This kid is an artist, his thinking is an artist's thinking, and he can't be confused with other traffic stars." β
Chen Kaige said: "I think so too, if it were another artist, I would have scolded a long time ago, what kind of score do I put with me?
But Li Li, this kid, I know, the salary or anything really doesn't matter to him, he is really dedicated to the pursuit of art, such a child is too rare in the film and television industry, I know him. β
"You still don't know him, and the salary is very important to him. Warm smile.
"Haha," Chen Kaige said with a smile, "Among the younger generation of actors, Li Li's outstanding image and talent are worthy of any sky-high salary, but I have no money." β
Warm and stunned, isn't this bullying? I want the horse to run fast, but I also want the horse not to eat grass, why do you want it?
You can't just let people with good acting skills take less money just because you're a big director, and then you and the investors make a lot of money?
Warm said: "The capital has money. β
"Uh...... Haha, niece, your elbow is turned out! I asked your father yesterday if he would invest.
However, now that the salary limit order has come down, actors starring in TV series, the salary of a single episode is not allowed to exceed 1ooo, and the total salary is the same as that of movie actors, and it must not exceed 5ooo. β
Everyone in the room frowned, because their personal interests were basically compromised, but can the salary limit order reduce bad movies?
The main problem with the large number of domestic bad movies is not actually the actors' salaries, but the behind-the-scenes investors and the main creative team. Their purpose is to make money, and even if the actors' salaries are lowered, do you think they will use the money saved for filming itself?
It's just that the cost is saved, and it is the capitalists who make it happen in the end.
Speaking of sky-high salaries, in fact, the main contradiction in this problem is not the salary itself, but whether the salary and the actors match.
There is nothing wrong with an actor taking 100 million, but it is unreasonable for a girl with zero acting skills to take 100 million.
Chen Kaige suddenly turned around and asked, "Ma Weiwei, can you make a cameo for me?"
"Yes, yes!" Ma Weiwei said happily, she said in her heart, even if she appeared in the "special thanks" list of this show, she was very happy!
β¦β¦
In the other lounge, there are many stars, and most of the more than 5o actors who have been eliminated before are there, including the guests who were invited to assist in the finals.
Li Li flipped through the script in his hand, his eyes lingered on the guests in turn, and he was assigning roles, "Teacher Zhu Yawen, help me play this coachman, do you think it's okay?"
Zhu Yawen raised the OK gesture, "No problem." β
"Thank you, teacher. β
Li Li nodded to express her gratitude, and then saw Ma Weiwei running in happily, her face was full of joy, "Teacher Li, your male number one is decided, Director Chen is here, and said that in the drama "Mei Lanfang", you are the male number one. β
Li Li: "?"
All the ears of the people stood up for a moment.
Ma Weiwei added: "I was also honored to get a role, and I was able to make a cameo. β
Li Li was a little puzzled, "Oh!"
At this time, Zhu Yawen took the lead in getting up, stretched out his hand and said: "Congratulations, just about to make my debut, I received a play from a big director, and he is also the protagonist." β
Other actors also stood up to congratulate:
"Some other people are at the peak of their debut, they are lucky, and they have been discovered by the director's discernment. Li Li's debut is the peak, it is strength, and strength does not allow us to keep a low profile. β
"A night pearl is shining in front of everyone's eyes, and any director may not want to miss Li Li, right?"
"Congratulations, envy, as an actor, there are a few people who don't want to shoot Director Chen's play, I am so envious. β
β¦β¦
Ma Weiwei asked suspiciously, "Teacher Li, why aren't you excited?"
Li Li smiled, "I'm introverted. β
Everyone: "......"
