Chapter 322: Director Zhang is an example for me to learn

"Hollywood invited Lee Shengyao, and he will go to Hollywood to develop."

"Crazy decision, Director Li rejected Disney."

"He is not only the best young film director in the three regions, but also the best film director of the young generation in the world."

"Li Shengyao: Hollywood is not important at all, domestic entertainment is the most hanging."

"'Extreme Escape' is about to kick off, and it's going to be an incredible movie."

"Reject Hollywood, Li Shengyao is even more powerful than Zhang Yimou, he is now the first Chinese director."

"The box office of "Extreme Escape" is stable, and surpassing "Hero" is just around the corner."

"Li Shengyao: "Hero" is not good-looking, I will surpass him."

……

Lee Shengyao refused Disney's invitation, and it quickly broke the media.

There are all kinds of things to say, the vast majority of them are positive reviews, a few are negative, and some are fishing in troubled waters and deliberately touting and exaggerating.

Li Shengyao never said that he surpassed Zhang Yi, nor did he say that the box office of "Extreme Escape" would exceed that of "Hero".

In the past two years, it has been really difficult to surpass "Hero" at the box office.

He has always been low-key, and he doesn't like to say uncertain things, how can he say that the box office surpasses "Hero"?

He arranged for media interviews, gave an explanation, and asked the studio's trolls to correct the misstatement.

After some explanations, the public basically knew that Lee Shengyao had not said such a thing.

On this night, Yanjing was star-studded, and celebrities in the entertainment industry came to the CCTV No. 1 live broadcast hall, where this year's Huabiao Awards Gala will be held.

There are three important film awards in the mainland, Huabiao, Baihua, and Golden Rooster.

Huabiao represents the above, Baihua represents the audience, and Jinji represents the professional jury.

According to the authority, from high to low, it is the golden rooster, Huabiao, and Baihua.

Lee Shengyao will be the guest of honor to present the outstanding female newcomers this time.

Before the award, Li Shengyao naturally sat in the first row, next to him was Xiao Gangcang, and Lao Mouzi.

Little Steel Cannon should have gone home and slept last night, and he was much more energetic today.

On the contrary, Lao Mouzi sat down and yawned, looking sleep-deprived.

Lao Mouzi's "Thousands of Miles to Ride Alone" has been filmed, and he is preparing "The City is Full of Golden Armor".

At this time, Lao Mouzi should have been informed that he was ready to be the director of the Yanjing Olympics, and he would officially work in 07 years at the latest.

Lao Mouzi also seized the time and wanted to make as many movies as possible before becoming an Olympic director.

In this case, his work intensity is naturally high, and when he gets older, he can't keep up with this energy.

Li Shengyao smiled, did not chat with Lao Mouzi, and chatted with Feng Xiaogang next to him.

Xiao Gang Cannon glanced at Lao Mouzi next to him, and thought of the conversation with Lao Mouzi before, he pursed his lips.

If Li Shengyao really surpasses him, sooner or later he will threaten Lao Mouzi's position, and now there will be a press release so soon.

He deliberately wanted to disgust Zhang Yimou, so he smiled and said: "Director Li, you are really powerful now, Hollywood has invited you over, this is really unique in the mainland."

"Where, Director Chen didn't go before."

"That's different, he went over by himself, you are someone who came to invite, hehe, no one else has this treatment, it's really good."

As he spoke, he stole a few glances at Lao Mouzi.

The result made him a little disappointed, and Lao Mouzi didn't have any expression.

Feng Xiaogang decided to add a handful of firewood, "Director Zhang, let's say yes." ”

When Zhang Yi heard this, he faintly understood the idea of the little steel cannon, and he beat his spirit, and said with a smile: "That's right, Director Li, it's really amazing."

Li Shengyao shook his head, "It's just that I was invited to work in the past, there is nothing to brag about, didn't I want Hollywood to invite Director Zhang before?" Director Zhang did not go over. ”

Lao Mouzi's status and strength are there, in fact, after "My Father and Mother", a Hollywood company invited him to make a movie, which is said to be a comedy, called "Happy Times".

Later, a Hollywood company asked him to shoot the Hollywood version of "Romeo Point".

A comedy, a Korean film anti-war drama.

"Happy Times" is completely foolish, Lao Mouzi is a big director, and he even asked him to make a small-budget comedy.

"Romeo Point" was okay, but Lao Mouzi had already promised Ken Takakura at that time to make a movie that belonged to them, so he rejected "Romeo Point" and filmed "A Thousand Miles to Ride Alone".

Zhang Yi smiled and didn't answer.

Feng Xiaogang saw that he couldn't disgust Lao Mouzi, and was a little depressed.

He rolled his eyes, and then said: "Director Li, I heard that your next movie is very popular, and you have ideas in the box office market?"

"Of course there is, at least not to lose money."

"Hey, you're too modest, don't say anything about losing money, it's rumored outside now, what if you want to break three or four billion?"

At most, the media will surpass "Hero", where will anyone think that it will break three or four billion.

Little steel cannon, this is complete nonsense.

Li Shengyao saw that the little steel cannon peeked at Lao Mouzi from time to time, and knew that he was using him as a topic to disgust Lao Mouzi.

"Director Feng, how is the filming of your "Night Banquet"?"

He directly changed the topic, that is, to tell Feng Xiaogang, stop, don't talk to me.

When Feng Xiaogang heard this, he looked up and saw Li Shengyao's calm face, paused slightly, and thought that Li Dadao was the owner of the theater chain and the hottest video website at the moment.

He was a spirit, and when he came back to his senses, he knew that he had just gone too far.

"Director Li, it's not finished filming yet, it will take a while, and there are a lot of special effects in the post-production, I heard that your company has set up a new special effects department, and you need your company's help when the time comes, don't refuse."

This is the attitude of giving money and being soft.

Li Shengyao smiled and nodded, "Little thing, although the Fenghua Special Effects Department has not been established for a long time, they are all old people in this area, and they can definitely help you." ”

Feng Xiaogang breathed a sigh of relief, knowing that this matter was over.

He glanced at Li Shengyao and Lao Mouzi.

One is a cinema boss who can't afford to offend.

One is a domestic director, whether it is awards or box office, he has been stabilized.

Li Shengyao is a chicken thief, and he can't provoke these two people to fight.

This made him lose the interest in talking for a while, and then deliberately hiccups, pretending to be very sleepy.

Li Shengyao smiled secretly in his heart and didn't say anything.

After a while, Feng Xiaogang got up and went to the bathroom, Lao Mouzi glanced at Feng Xiaogang, and then whispered to Li Shengyao: "Director Li, I have watched the news outside, you and I don't have to pay attention to it."

Some media are hyping Li Shengyao to surpass Lao Mouzi, and hyping "Extreme Escape" to surpass "Hero" at the box office.

Hearing this, Li Shengyao smiled and nodded, "I know." ”

Lao Mouzi smiled with relief, although Li Shengyao is young, he has a good personality, even if he has made achievements, he is also very modest.

He likes such young people.

Lee Shengyao really surpassed him in box office awards in the future, and he will not be disgusted.

He thought of Yang Dexian's words.

With the talent shown by Li Shengyao, if Li Shengyao does not make commercial films, he may indeed be able to make a difference in the literary film market.

Of course, he will not persuade, and he must know how to follow the trend.

If you want to make a blockbuster and want the mainland film market to be more prosperous, then don't do it and make blockbusters wholeheartedly.

Soon after, the award ceremony officially began, Feng Xiaogang and Li Shengyao were both award guests, and the two of them sat for a while and left, and went directly to the backstage to prepare.

Feng Xiaogang presented awards to outstanding documentaries, and Li Shengyao is an outstanding female newcomer.

Feng Xiaogang first, he smiled when he left: "Director Li, I'll go first, I'll wait for you in the audience."

“OK。”

A moment later, it was Lee Shengyao's turn to present the award, and there was no partner, he was alone.

The host said his name, and he strode out.

Li Shengyao came to the center of the stage.

The bright lights were down, and the auditorium on the opposite side was much dimmer.

The stage is quite far from the audience, Li Shengyao has good eyesight, and he can barely see the people in the front rows, but he can't see the people in the back very clearly.

Round black heads.

There was a round of applause at first, and then everyone fell silent.

There was a smell of perfume in the air, and the guest who accepted the award just now should have sprayed perfume.

Li Shengyao felt his chest thump, and it accelerated significantly.

He stood on the stage, opposite a thousand spectators.

He had the illusion of himself sitting on a dragon chair, as if the audience across from him was Muggles.

He couldn't help but think of some news.

He is the best director of the younger generation.

His new film will surpass "Hero" at the box office.

He will surpass Lao Mouzi.

He will be the king of the world......

If it's so good, shouldn't you sing and enjoy it indiscriminately?

"Welcome Director Li to present awards to outstanding newcomer actresses."

The host's words fell, and Li Shengyao came back to his senses and saw the young and beautiful Zhang Jingchu.

Zhang Jingchu is the heroine of "The Bride with a Flower Waist", and the winner of this year's Huabiao Outstanding Female Newcomer Award.

At this time, the aura is compelling, and it is at the peak of appearance.

She has very bright eyes, a good figure, and a long purple dress, which is particularly charming.

Jiang Wenli is almost forty now, and any man will choose Zhang Jingchu.

Li Shengyao understood Director Gu's choice.

He then picked up the trophy and handed it to Zhang Jingchu, then picked up the certificate and handed it to her.

"Thank you, director, I like your movie very much."

The last three words are very quiet, and they sound like "I like you very much".

Li Shengyao glanced at her bright eyes, and was a little moved for a while, and applause rang out at this time.

He then left the stage and returned to his seat in the audience from the side, where he became an audience member, and the new presenters went up, and he became a Muggle.

Li Shengyao laughed to himself.

Everyone wants to be the core of Vanity Fair, but after so many years, there are a few successes.

Lao Mouzi's current status has been cultivated for more than ten years.

He is still young and not in a hurry, and now he should be calm, rather than thinking about something that he has or not.

He then calmed down and watched quietly.

At the next awards ceremony, the young director Lu Chuan won the Outstanding Director Award for "Ke Ke Xili", which attracted quite attention.

An hour later, the awards party ended, and a reporter found Li Shengyao.

"Director Li, now the outside world is rumoring that your new movie will surpass "Hero" at the box office, and you will surpass director Zhang Yi, what do you think?"

Li Shengyao smiled, "As long as the new movie exceeds 100 million, the box office is unlikely to exceed "Hero". ”

"As for me and Director Zhang, there is still a very big gap, he is an example for me to learn, and I will continue to improve."
