"Li Shengyao is really floating, the new movie actually uses Zhang Songwen and Lu Han, who is Zhang Songwen, who is Lu Han? Are they actors? ”

"Pan Yueming sued Dong Jie's agent Ren Jiaying."

"Li Shengyao: I believe in Mr. Pan's character, he is not a gambler, not a domestic violence man."

"Pan Yueming, Li Lianhua confirmed to join "La La Land".

"Bad choice, Li Shengyao actually chose Pan Yueming, didn't he find that other companies didn't dare to use Pan Yueming?"

"Except for Zhang Manyu, Li Shengyao's other choices are indescribable, he can't listen to other people's persuasion, and he has lost his awe of movies."

"Li Shengyao also said that he would use a new movie to compete for the best actor, and now it seems that he can only look forward to Zhang Manyu."

"Li Shengyao still wants to save face, and pull Zhang Manyu to guarantee the bottom, otherwise, his three new movies will not have good results."

"Dong Jie's studio is not afraid of prosecution and adheres to the previous statement."

"100,000 netizens signed a boycott of "La La Land", unless Pan Yueming withdrew, or Li Shengyao would be boycotted permanently."

……

The film market in October 2012 was terrible, but the entertainment industry was still very lively.

Especially the golden boy and jade girl Pan Yueming and Dong Jie, who everyone is optimistic about, broke up, and a large number of black materials about Pan Yueming's gambling, domestic violence, and debts were spread on the Internet.

At this time, netizens have not experienced layers of reversal, relatively simple, and quickly accepted Dong Jie's rhetoric, and insulted and criticized Pan Yueming.

When Pan Yueming sued Dong Jie's agent Ren Jiaying, and Li Shengyao invited Pan Yueming to play "La La Land", more netizens were furious, and they felt that their authority was provoked, so with the help of well-intentioned people, some netizens even signed a boycott of "La La Land".

In the large flat floor of a high-end community in Yanjing XC District, Dong Jie was standing on the balcony on the phone.

She was born as a girl, practiced dancing since she was a child, and although she was older and gave birth to a baby, she was still in good shape.

At this time, the wind was blowing outside, and she was still whispering, looking back from time to time.

In the living room inside the house, there was a long-haired girl, judging from the back, there were seven or eight points, no worse than Dong Jie.

But when I turned to her front and saw the big donkey face, I was really unappetizing, and it was only four points.

This person is Dong Jie's agent and assistant - Ren Jiaying.

She is only twenty-two years old this year, and she looks like she is forty-two years old, as if she is a generation older than Dong Jie.

Despite the rumors outside and being sued by Pan Yueming, Ren Jiaying was still in a good mood, holding the remote control to change the channel, and there was a glass of red wine in front of her.

Dong Jie finished the phone call, walked in from outside, closed the glass door, and isolated the cold wind, there was a look of worry in her eyes, "Jiaying, what should I do?" Li Shengyao is on Pan Yueming's side, will we be very passive?"

Seeing Dong Jie's worried face, Ren Jiaying smiled secretly in her heart and pursed her lips, "Don't worry, sister, we're not wrong, do you still need to be afraid of him?" ”

"Don't you need it?"

Dong Jie filmed "Please Forgive Me" and "Ten Years of Love" with Wang Dazhi in succession, and he was intoxicated by Wang Dazhi's prosperous beauty.

For this reason, the original assistant was dismissed, and this assistant was Pan Yueming's cousin.

Since then, there is only Ren Jiaying by her side, who has no bottom line, who helped Dong Jie cheat in marriage and became Dong Jie's most trusted person.

No matter what it is now, Dong Jie will tell Ren Jiaying.

Ren Jiaying saw Dong Jie's eyes full of worry, took Dong Jie's hand and sat down, then lowered her head, rolled her eyes a few times, and found a few reasons, then raised her head, "Sister, don't be afraid, the current situation, the advantage is on our side." ”

Dong Jie listened in a daze and did not answer.

Ren Jiaying continued: "You can log in to Weibo with your mobile phone, or you can see it from Tianya Maopu, the current public opinion is one-sided towards us, and netizens believe that he is a domestic violence man, in debt, gambling, incompetent, and we are on the side of justice." ”

"But Li Shengyao supports him now."

"Li Shengyao is indeed awesome, but he is not the sky, it is not that he says that the wind is windy, and when he says that there is rain, many netizens have signed a boycott of "La La Land", he dares to support Pan Yueming, his new movie will die faster."

When Ren Jiaying said this, she felt an unprecedented feeling of coolness in her heart.

She thought that her appearance and figure were online, and she originally wanted to enter the entertainment industry, but no one could see it at all, and there was no film and television drama, so she could only retreat to the second best thing and become an agent.

Li Shengyao is high above her, and she will never be able to compare.

But this time, netizens are on Dong Jie's side, Li Shengyao has a high status and is still resisted by many people.

She planned this good show, and every time she thought that she could embarrass Li Shengyao, she was very excited, excited, and almost ascended to immortal on the spot.

"Really?"

Dong Jie followed a sentence, she is like this, she has no opinions.

Ren Jiaying nodded, and then said one of her own inferences, "Sister, we have invited hundreds of sailors, but now there are a lot of Hei Li Shengyao, not only our people, but also other people."

Li Shengyao used to be so high-profile and so beautiful, he offended many people.

Now a lot of people are following the trend, you see, this is the beginning, and soon more people will boycott him.

If he was smart, he would quickly announce the replacement of Pan Yueming, and if he held on, his new movie would be absolutely doomed. ”

When Dong Jie heard this, he breathed a sigh of relief, "Okay, staring at the point, I had insomnia last night, so I'll go make up for sleep first." ”

She then went to her room to sleep.

Ren Jiaying waited for Dong Jie to close the door, sat down immediately, and then lay back, leaned on the sofa, squinted and changed the channel.

tuned to the music channel, and then hummed a song while shaking his legs.

When her phone rang, she picked it up and saw that it was the real estate agent she had contacted last month.

"Hey, I'm Ren Jiaying, is it done?

Don't worry, I have money, a million down payment, absolutely no problem, I'll go tomorrow.

Yes, I am the head of the household, and my name is written on the real estate deed. ”

Putting down the phone, Ren Jiaying couldn't hide her happy mood, then got up and went to the wine cabinet to get a bottle of wine, drank the red wine on the coffee table, and poured another glass.

She picked up her wine glass, and caught a glimpse of Dong Jie's bag on the sofa.

She rolled her little eyeballs, then walked over, opened Dong Jie's bag, found the Chanel lipstick she was longing for, and then put it in her pocket.

"Help you deal with Pan Yueming, it's no problem to get a lipstick."

She put the bag back, then held the wine glass, hummed a song, shook her head and twisted her body, her face full of pride.

……

The weather in Yanjing is getting colder and colder, and by the end of October, most pedestrians on the streets will wear overcoats.

Outdoor activities have decreased considerably, and indoor recreation has become mainstream.

On this night, a group of special people came to the top KTV box of Shangri-La Hotel, all wearing masks when they entered and exited, and several waiters felt that they were stars.

In the box, international superstar Cheng Long is sitting on the sofa, Yao Xingtong and Bai Luna are sitting on his left, and Zhang Lanxin is sitting on his right.

Relying on the "Rescue" series of movies provided by Li Shengyao, Cheng Long is still active in Hollywood, and every year there will be a Hollywood blockbuster released, and the box office is not high, more than 100 million in North America and about 200 million US dollars in the world.

But even so, he is still the top actor on the planet, and his salary is still 20 million US dollars.

In addition to the "Rescue" series of movies, Cheng Long will also go out for interviews with big leaders, as well as make his own movies in China.

The domestic box office has increased significantly, and Cheng Long is naturally greedy.

This time, "Zodiac" is his long-planned work, it is said that he has traveled to several countries, as well as European collectors, for the sake of Cheng Long's face, and returned the family heirloom beast head to Huaxia.

In short, Cheng Long was in high spirits at this time, and he was so unhappy.

Yao Xingtong and Bai Luna, Zhang Lanxin are all mainland actresses, they are okay, Zhang Lanxin is tall, and she has also practiced taekwondo, with a pair of long legs that are slender and well-proportioned, and her legs are playful.

The three of them are all actors in "Zodiac", Zhang Lan has the hope of becoming a beating woman, and is favored by Cheng Long.

At this time, all three of them took off their coats and wore sweaters and leggings, looking bumpy and convex.

On the coffee table in front of the four of them, there were three fruit bowls and several wine glasses.

In front of them, Li Shengyao turned his back to the four and was intoxicating singing "Black Sweater".

Director Li rarely goes to KTV, and if he goes, he will inevitably sing Jay Chou's songs, "Trajectory", "Back to the Past", "Black Humor", "Stranded", ......

Cheng Long held the wine glass and smiled.

"Zodiac" will be released in this year's Chinese New Year, and Cheng Long is now planning for the promotion of the movie.

Li Shengyao happened to be in Yanjing, so he invited Li Shengyao to come over to sing and chat.

Regarding Li Shengyao's recent news, he naturally heard about it, but he didn't want to persuade Li Shengyao, he felt that there was no need to persuade him, he was in a bad mood, just vent it.

When he was young, he was like this, he felt uncomfortable, he went to the bar to find a few beautiful girls, hehehaha for a while.

Zhang Lanxin, Yao Xingtong, and Bai Luna were holding wine glasses, looking at Li Shengyao, they all felt a little embarrassed, they still thought that they could sing, but when they came to the box, they listened to Li Shengyao singing there alone.

If a stranger came over, he might think that Lee Shengyao had just fallen out of love.

"Director Li may not be in a good mood recently, so you can talk to him more later, and it will definitely be beneficial to have a good relationship with him."

Cheng Long noticed that the three girls were a little absent-minded, and smiled a little.

"Big brother, Director Li won't come."

Zhang Lanxin immediately followed.

At this moment, Li Shengyao put down the microphone, walked over to drink a glass of water, and then sat down.

"Director Li, you sing so well."

Without waiting for Li Shengyao to speak, Zhang Lanxin took the initiative to speak.

"It's okay, I'm just a big white voice, I haven't practiced."

"Yes, you sang so well, I thought you had studied vocal music before."

As long as you are not a fool, you know that Zhang Lanxin is just blowing blindly with her eyes open, but there is no malice in others, and there is no need to scare others.

Li Shengyao then picked up an orange and chatted with Zhang Lanxin while eating it.

Yao Xingtong and Bai Luna have been secretly observing, and when they saw that Li Shengyao was easy to speak, they joined in to chat.

Cheng Long sat next to him, and he didn't pay attention at first, but later he found that Li Shengyao didn't seem to be affected by the recent public opinion, even if he chatted with Zhang Lanxin and a few little stars, it was normal and natural, and he didn't have a little impatience.

"Yikes!"

The door of the box room opened, and I saw several middle-aged men walking over with red faces and full of wine, holding wine glasses.

"Big brother, Director Li, I didn't expect you to sing, our brothers respect Big Brother, Director Li, you two are the pride of our Huaxia, we did it."

These people drank a lot of wine and spoke with big tongues, and without waiting for Li Shengyao Chenglong to hear clearly, they raised their glasses and drank them all.

Cheng Long shook his head lightly and whispered to Li Shengyao: "A friend I knew before, don't be angry. ”

Li Shengyao nodded, "It's okay." ”

These people then took out their mobile phones and asked people to take pictures of them, and Li Shengyao cooperated.

"Big brother, Director Li, drink well, our brother pays."

Several people then left, and Cheng Long hurriedly followed out, asking the bodyguards guarding the door not to let outsiders in.

A moment later, Cheng Long came back, and when he saw Li Shengyao chatting with Zhang Lanxin and the others, he couldn't help but look at them suspiciously.

Lee Shengyao was too normal tonight, without any negative emotions of frustration, irritability, dissatisfaction.

There are people on the Internet who boycott "La La Land", does Li Shengyao really not care?

Cheng Long wondered in his heart, but he was not a reckless person, so he didn't ask.

"Director Li, shall we play Truth or Dare?"

Yao Xingtong placed a wine bottle on the coffee table and proposed to play a game.

"Yes, but I don't drink, I drink orange juice."

"No problem."

So Li Shengyao, Cheng Long, Yao Xingtong, Zhang Lanxin, and Bai Luna played truth or dare.

The bottle turned several times, and finally turned to Lee Shengyao.

Yao Xingtong put the index finger of his right hand to his mouth, pretended to be cute and thought about it, and then asked: "Director Li, now that so many people are hacking you, aren't you worried?" ”

"Don't worry."

"Why?"

"It's a small point, I can easily solve it."

The photos of Dong Jie's and Wang Dazhi's private meeting have long been secretly taken by Zhuo Wei, and Li Shengyao can be released at any time to reverse public opinion.

He hasn't been released now, just waiting for the court's verdict.

In Li Shengyao's previous life, it was Pan Yueming who won the lawsuit, and then a few months later, Zhuo Wei released a photo, public opinion reversed, and Dong Jie was directly scolded until he withdrew from the circle, and only came back a few years later.

Lee can release the photos now, but the effect is not that big, and he plans to wait a few more months.

Yao Xingtong, Zhang Lanxin, and Bai Luna are not very familiar with Li Shengyao, and they thought that Director Li had a hard mouth and were unwilling to admit that they were in a bad state at this time.

Cheng Long knew Li Shengyao and knew that Li Shengyao would not be untargeted, so he couldn't help but be curious.

The truth or dare adventure continued, several girls drank a lot of wine, and Zhang Lanxin soon hung on Li Shengyao's shoulder.

Her face is not prominent, but her figure is really good.

Perennial exercise, slender and powerful legs, sandwiched between these legs, it is estimated to be refreshing.

Cheng Long sat next to him, a look of envy flashing in his eyes.

However, Li Shengyao was very calm and did not respond superfluously.

Half an hour later, when the party ended, several people's assistants came to pick them up, and the three girls left first, Cheng Long asked in a low voice: "Director Li, isn't Zhang Lanxin still eye-catching?" ”

"Well, I can't see it."

Cheng Long rolled his eyes, and then asked, "You just said that dealing with public opinion on the Internet is easy, is it really fake?" ”

"Of course it's true."

"I still want you to relax, but it seems that you really don't take the black material on the Internet to heart, do you have any hole cards?"

Li Shengyao nodded, and then said: "I have a photo of the woman's cheating in marriage, release it, and Pan Yueming will be able to reverse the reputation." ”

"Then why don't you let it out?"

"It's not the time yet, it will break out in a few months, and the effect will be better when the time comes."

Cheng Long was stunned for a moment, and then gave a thumbs up, "Awesome, Director Li, you have a plan for doing things, you see far, and you are a person who does great things." ”

……

Lee did not take the recent public opinion to heart, and in his opinion, the boycott of these netizens can be regarded as a kind of movie propaganda, after all, black and red are also red.

Under his control, about this matter, the people of the entire Fenghua Film and Television Company are very low-key to the outside world.

There was a lot of disturbance outside, but the inside of the company was calm, and the people in the company believed that he could solve it.

He was not bothered by public opinion, and spent most of his time preparing for the upcoming film.

Mainly to solve the problem of the soundtrack, he contacted Chen Xiaoxia and handed over the soundtrack of "Dalian by the Sea" to her in charge.

contacted Chen Guangrong and handed over the soundtrack of "Three Billboards" to him to be responsible.

In addition, he personally went to a beautiful country and met the two-time Grammy Best Choreographer, Mandy Moore, and invited Mandy Moore's team to choreograph "La La Land" for the price of two million US dollars.

In his previous life, the dance finger of "La La Land" was Mandy Moore.

The strength of this big guy is beyond doubt.

After signing the contract, Mandy Moore will bring the team to China in November, and then take over the dance rehearsals for Pan Yueming, Li Bingbing, and the group performance of "La La Land".

Lee Shengyao once considered whether to directly invite Justin, the soundtrack of "La La Land" in his previous life. Hevez, who was in charge of the film's soundtrack.

However, there is still a big difference between the feeling of English songs and Chinese songs.

Since he is directing, the story takes place in China, and naturally he sings Chinese songs.

Thinking of this, Li Shengyao went out and asked Justin. Hevez's thoughts.

He plans to find relevant talents in the Chinese music industry.

In fact, the male protagonist in "La La Land" plays the piano and likes traditional jazz music, and Li Shengyao has considered whether to replace this with ancient Chinese musical instruments.

But after thinking about it, he still felt that it was not suitable.

One thing that has to be admitted in this day and age is that Western culture is popular around the world.

Even in the mainland, playing the piano is a compelling thing.

In the hearts of ordinary people, playing the piano is definitely more romantic than playing the erhu.

Jazz is definitely more fashionable than Peking Opera.

It's not something that can be changed by a movie.

It has to be the East completely overpowering the West for our culture to really catch on.

Li Shengyao did not revise it, and the general story of "La La Land" he wrote is similar to that of the American version.

In order to make the actor have a strong character, Li Shengyao also found two of the best jazz bigwigs in China - Luo Ning and Ren Yuqing, and he hoped that the two bigwigs would help him compose a few piano songs, and then practice for Pan Yueming.

Both Luo Ning and Ren Yuqing were very happy that Lee Shengyao was willing to promote jazz in the mainland and readily agreed.

In this way, Lee only needs to confirm the soundtrack of "La La Land".

At 10 a.m. on October 30, the weather on Hong Kong Island was good.

A warm sun floated above the white clouds.

The cool breeze blows, dancing among the high-rise buildings.

The streets are crowded with tourists, whites, blacks, South Americans, and all kinds of languages.

In a coffee shop, Lee Shengyao sat on one side, and across from him sat an elderly couple in their sixties.

The man had a bald head and looked quite elegant, with a gentle smile on his face.

Humble in his eyes, very gentlemanly.

The woman has long hair and a shawl, wears a pair of black-rimmed glasses, and has a very peaceful gaze.

Men and women exchange glances from time to time and are very loving.

These two people are Lo Guanting and Tang Shuchen, who feed half of the Hong Kong Island music circle.

Lu Guanting grew up in a beautiful country, studied music since he was a child, and is very familiar with Chinese and Western music, all kinds of music styles, and creates with ease.

In his early years, he acted in movies, but he did not achieve much, and later entered the music industry, became a blockbuster, and quickly became the top composer on Hong Kong Island.

For mainland audiences, the most familiar soundtrack should be the music of "God of Gamblers".

The most familiar song about Lu Guanting should be "What Do You Want in Life" in "Journey to the West".

He has been dyslexic since he was a child, and after meeting his wife Tang Shuchen, he usually composes music and Tang Shuchen writes lyrics.

In 1998, Lu Guanting became chemically sensitive because of too much computer radiation, and since then, he has gradually been in a semi-retired state.

When he is inspired, he writes songs.

But the film score work, a lot less.

"La La Land" needs to match the plot of the male protagonist who likes traditional jazz music, the music style is more retro, and the soundtrack needs to create works of this style, and there are not many such talents.

Li Shengyao thought about it and finally chose Lu Guanting, but he was not very sure whether he could invite someone out of the mountain.

At this time, Lu Guanting and Tang Shuchen exchanged glances from time to time, Li Shengyao was hacked in the mainland, and the same is true for Hong Kong Island.

The Hong Kong Island media also think that Li Shengyao is floating, and they actually use not famous actors like Pan Yueming and Zhang Songwen, in their opinion, Li Shengyao should use Hong Kong Island to become a famous actor.

So that the new film will be as successful as "Parasite".

And Li Shengyao used Zhang Songwen and Pan Yueming to be a little coffee, but Director Li floated and felt that he could do whatever he wanted in film production.

Lu Guanting naturally knows Li Shengyao's status and strength in the mainland, he doesn't want to go out of the mountain, the big directors are demanding, he feels tired, but he also doesn't want to offend Li Shengyao, so his brain cells are flipping, and he is thinking about how to refuse.

Li Shengyao was not polite, and directly said his thoughts.

Lu Guanting and Tang Shuchen glanced at each other, and then Tang Shuchen said: "Director Li, we like your movies very much, but the two of us are older now, and in recent years, we have mainly written songs for ourselves, and when we are inspired, we will write, and if we don't, we will rest, and write songs for the soundtrack of the movie, I am afraid that we don't have this ability now."

Li Shengyao was already prepared, and took out two copies of the script of "La La Land", "Mr. Lu, Mr. Tang, you can read the script of "La La Land" and then decide if you can write a song and soundtrack?" ”

Lu Guanting and Tang Shuchen were stunned for a moment, then nodded and took over the script.

These two are husband and wife, and naturally they mainly write love songs.

Although the story of "La La Land" is cliché, it is very delicately choreographed, with the hero and heroine meeting and falling in love, and then separating for their dreams.

In fact, they all made great sacrifices, and they all worked hard for this relationship, but they were forced by reality to leave in the end.

The story contains dreams and pursuits, love and sacrifice, sweet and sad.

At least in Li Shengyao's view, after the new century, there is no better love story in the Chinese film and television industry than "La La Land".

He felt that Lu Guanting and Tang Shuchen should be moved.

The old man watched it slowly, and when it was lunch time, Lu Guanting and Tang Shuchen hadn't finished reading the script, and in the afternoon, the two of them finished reading it.

The two of them glanced at each other, and they both saw the excitement in each other's eyes.

Li Shengyao breathed a sigh of relief, he believed that there was a good story, these musicians couldn't help it, he paused for a moment, and then said slowly: "Teacher Lu, Teacher Tang, if you are willing to complete the creation of "La La Land", I can pay three million in compensation."

The salary of the soundtrack on Hong Kong Island is not high, and the writing of songs is also low, hundreds of thousands of songs.

In Li Shengyao's previous life, Lu Guanting later went to the mainland to participate in variety shows in order to make money, and he believed that musicians had to eat.

Interesting enough story, and there is money to be made, is there still a reason to refuse?
