Chapter 055: Making Friends and Blockbusters
Yang Mi didn't see Li Xiang, and after the filming was over, she continued to practice there alone, and the tracks that needed to be played when she needed to shoot in the afternoon.
"Yang Mi, someone is looking for you!" shouted a male staff member, his eyes full of gossip fire.
"Who will come to me?" Yang Mi got up and looked a little strangely, and saw a tall and familiar figure, accompanied by the crew staff, walking towards the filming location, followed by some staff members, holding several large bags of drinks in their hands.
"Little thought, how do you pull it?" The young lady was obviously pleasantly surprised.
I saw Li Xiang wearing a dark blue baseball cap from the Dodgers, a pair of big sunglasses that covered half of his face, wearing a black tiger hooded sweatshirt by ED Hardy on his upper body, a pair of whitish jeans with small feet on his lower body, and a pair of classic sneakers with Vance dark blue color, the whole person looked full of vitality, which attracted frequent sideways glances from the female staff of the crew.
Li Xiang first greeted the staff around him very politely, and then walked up to Yang Mi.
"Loneliness is a person's carnival, carnival is the loneliness of a group of people, just like the lonely me..."
"Speak human words!"
"Uh... The script is finished, and the crew's preparation is also going well, so I'm picking my feet at home, so I'm going to come and see you!"
"Why did you bring so many people?"
"Oh, don't you say I almost forgot, thank you brothers for your help!" Li Xiang turned around and thanked everyone who helped him get the drink, and took out the corresponding number of drinks and distributed them to a few people, who also said that this was the right thing, and then dispersed.
"I thought it was your assistant!" Yang Mi was also very embarrassed, there were too many people in the crew, and she couldn't recognize them all.
"Don't sigh yet, let's share the drinks with me, and take me to meet these people who know the crew!" Li Xiang handed the least of the bags to the young lady. Then Yang Mi led Li Xiang to the direction of the director.
"Hello Director Xue, I'm Li Xiang, thank you for taking care of Yang Mi!" Li Xiang glanced at Yang Mi, and Yang Mi hurriedly handed over the hot coffee.
"Thank you, Director Li, I've heard of the name for a long time, but it's a pity that I was able to meet today! I heard that this book was also written by you?" Director Xue was very kind and said to Li Xiang with a smile.
"I'm really sorry Director Xue, I was supposed to be with the team as a screenwriter, but my own movie is also in the early preparations, you have a lot of me!" Li Xiang also felt very embarrassed.
"It's okay, it's okay, I know you're a busy man, and I'm saying that your script has been written in detail. To be honest, your script is really well written, I like it very much!"
"It's great if you like it!" After all, they didn't know each other, and the two exchanged a few more words, and Yang Mi took Li Xiang to visit other people.
"This is Yan Bingyan, Sister Yan, you can take care of me in the crew!" Yang Mi jumped to Yan Bingyan's side, put her arm around Yan Bingyan, and introduced her to Li Xiang.
"Hello Sister Yan, I've wanted to get to know you for a long time!" Li Xiang greeted.
"Hello Director Li, I've seen all your movies, and they're so good!" Yan Bingyan is also a master who has eaten and seen, and Li Xiang really deserves the respect of others.
"Oh, don't praise each other, Sister Yan will give you a drink, let's talk about it at dinner at night!" It can be seen that Yang Mi and Yan Bingyan get along well, and Yang Mi is also very open.
"Go, go, go!" Sister Yan looked at the two little ones with a smile.
Yang Mi then introduced Wang Qianyuan, Wang Kai and the same senior sister Tang Yifei to Li Xiang, there was not much time for the lunch break, Yang Mi made an appointment with everyone, and Li wanted to be the east in the evening, and everyone had a meal together, which was regarded as making friends with each other.
"I think I'll tell you, they're all so strong, and I'm the one with the most NG in the whole crew!" After a round of drinks, the two were finally able to chat for a while.
"How old are you, it's very powerful to be able to catch their scenes, let's not rush, come little by little!" Li thought of not being surprised, these are all good at acting skills, and Yang Mi, a newcomer who has not yet graduated, has a big gap.
"Did you miss me?" asked the young lady coquettishly.
"I think my brother misses you more than I miss you!" Li Xiang said to Yang Mi narrowly.
"Your brother?" Yang Mi looked confused.
"Because since you left, he has been very tough on informing me every morning, boy, I miss Yang Mi, you take me to see her quickly!"
"Rogues... Give your brother a chance to talk to me tonight!"
"No, I don't worry about my brother going alone, I have to accompany him!"
"Get out!"
···
A big pot, a famous Northeast restaurant in Bingcheng, the most famous is the big kang + big iron pot, a group of actors from "Quartet" and Li Xiang sat cross-legged around the cauldron. At first, the wine was not drunk properly, and everyone couldn't let go. When the wine has passed three rounds, the atmosphere is warm. Li Xiang himself is a very easy-going person, and he is also talented in addition, so of course it is worth getting acquainted with this group of people.
During the banquet, Wang Kai and Wang Qianyuan changed positions, sat next to Li Xiang, held a wine glass, and said to Li Xiang: "Director Li, thank you for giving me this opportunity!"
"Don't say that, you can get this role, but also by your own strength, I only have one right to suggest, and in the end, I still have to be made by Director Xue!" According to memory, this year, Wang Kai will emerge with the role of "Ugly Girl" Chen Jiaming in "Ugly Girl Invincible". But success is also Chen Jiaming, and defeat is also Chen Jiaming.
After the TV series "Ugly Girl Invincible", because of Wang Kai's professional performance, the audience and the producers of the TV series in the circle were a little suspicious, thinking that Wang Kai also has the same character as Chen Jiaming in the play in life, and there are many similar roles to play him, and Wang Kai mentioned in a talk show that he is a very gentleman in reality. In order not to be stereotyped at the beginning of his debut, Wang Kai rejected all the roles of the same type at that time, so there was no filming for a while.
It wasn't until 11 years of "Educated Youth" that Wang Kai regained his self-confidence by playing the cheerful Qi Yong, and at the same time met his future Bole - Hou Hongliang (chairman of Dongyang Noon). Then Wang Kai began to gradually become popular: Gongsun Ze in "The New Detective Alliance: Lord Bao is Coming", Fang Mengwei in "No War in Beiping", Ming Cheng in "The Pretender", and then King Jing in "Langya Bang", which made him completely popular.
By the way, before he filmed "Educated Youth", that is, now, he was also a member of the Huayi brothers, and he couldn't wash it!
After you sang and I appeared, Tang Yifei followed Wang Kai and sat next to Li Xiang with a wine glass: "Director Li, I am also very grateful to you for giving me this opportunity, I will do this glass of wine first as a respect!" Something seems wrong.
"Sister Yifei is polite, I did it too!" Li Xiang didn't know much about Tang Yifei, but remembered that she was in good shape, took a photo of "Men's Clothing", and then married Yao Dazui's ex-husband. After giving birth to a child in 15 years, this sister gradually faded out of the entertainment industry. In fact, after chatting for a few sentences, I found that the person was quite nice and a person worth befriending. Of course, what people think, Li Xiang doesn't know.
···
After some tossing, Li Xiang lay down with Yang Mi in his arms, Yang Mi lay lazily on Li Xiang's chest, but the words he said made Li Xiang feel full of vinegar: "You and Sister Yifei are still chatting hot?"
"You know I don't like the New Year, although Sister Yifei's figure is really good. Li Xiang didn't deny it, he was shameless.
"Hmph, I don't think I'm worse than her!" said the young lady who was not convinced.
"That's one of the reasons I like you. ”
"Flim!" "Please, can you stop laughing so unscrupulously?"
"I think you said that if I get old and lose my shape, will you still like me?" Yang Mi probably thought of the future, and said with some melancholy.
"You're old, you're out of shape, and I'm old at that time, who else can I like if I don't like you?"
"Little thoughts..."
"What's wrong?"
"I want to talk to your brother again, you see..."
"Here we are!"
Li Xiang stayed in the crew of "Quartet" for three days, left the ice city refreshed, and flew to HK to work on the preparation of the crew, including the costumes and props needed in the movie, which needed to be discussed by Li Xiang.
···
In April, the Chinese film market ushered in three blockbusters: "The Three Kingdoms: Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor" starring Li Rengang and Liu Tianwang, "The King of Kung Fu" starring Liu Tianxian and starring two kung fu superstars Da Cheng and Li Lianjie, and "Iron Man" starring Robert Downey Jr.
The first to be released was "Three Kingdoms: Seeing the Dragon Unloading the Armor", Li Xiang watched it in the cinema in his previous life, and his first feeling after watching it was that he wanted to pull the director out and beat him, and then he felt that the director, screenwriter, and art designer of this movie should have entered the water. His films have always raised suspicions that his history was taught by a math teacher (the math teacher said he didn't memorize the pot).
In Li Xiang's opinion, no one with a little historical common sense will make a movie like this, this is obviously a bad movie that uses the name of the Three Kingdoms and Zhao Zilong to make money. Li Xiang seemed to find that Changshan Zhao Zilong, who was riding the savior alone on the silver gun and white horse, had become a foodie who was munching on a big cake on the screen and wearing a Japanese armor and a British helmet that he didn't know where to go.
Just look at the two films he later directed: "Jinyiwei" in 10 years, and "Hongmen Banquet" in 11 years. The props and plot are not elaborate at all, and they also impose their own understanding, and the stupidity of a serious book is the most unbearable. Fortunately, this guy learned to be smart later.,I don't shoot real historical themes anymore.,Change alternate history.,Now you don't have a guest to say, right?
Of course, no matter how bad the movie is, there are still some bright spots. In the end, the Wei army besieged Fengming Mountain, and the music of the two armies when they fought was not bad. The sound of drums and pipa combined with the battle on the battlefield is at least a blockbuster sound effect. The costume version of MaggieQ still looks good after changing the hairstyle, so it's good to add one more point to MaggieQ!
