Before meeting, Li Yi naturally knew Liu Yishou and had read his works.
Liu Yishou graduated from the directing department of Beijing Film Academy. After graduation, he first became an advertising director, then a MV director, and then became a film director step by step, and finally became a dawdling online film director.
He may not be able to make a good movie, but the director's basic skills are very solid and he has rich experience.
Moreover, Zhang Ying'er and Liu Yishou have cooperated before. From this aspect, Li Yi will not doubt the professional ability of the other party.
Although Liu Yishou's state is a bit pretentious, Li Yi has never been looking for a talented director. What he needs is this kind of professional and obedient "presence".
Liu Yishou was frightened by Li Yi's words. He was not unaware of some of the dirty tricks in the industry, and he inevitably thought of a lot at the same time.
Before he came, he had also learned about Fanxing, and it was not a big company.
If he is not strong enough, he cannot be like the coal boss, who favors women just for fun.
"Mr. Li, I am very satisfied with my current situation. I don't want to..." Liu Yishou said hesitantly, omitting the second half of the sentence.
As he said that, he glanced at Zhang Ying'er.
Compared to Fanxing, he was just more worried about offending Zhang Yinger, who had a background.
Li Yi heard what the other party was worried about, and laughed dumbly and said: "You are worrying too much, our Fanxing is a regular company, and we never do anything illegal or disciplinary."
Zhang Ying'er, who had been listening for a long time, also smiled and said, "Director Liu, you misunderstood."
"Director Liu, as I just said. I have a very detailed story, so I need a professional director to make this movie completely without changing it at all." Li Yi was in a good mood.
Finally, after Ye Yaodong, he found another professional tool man.
"Is it a movie that will be released in theaters, or is it?"
"Then it will naturally go to theaters."
Upon hearing this, Liu Yishou was slightly surprised, thinking that Li Yi was quite ambitious in playing tickets.
Rich second generation?
It's really rare for traffic to happen like this.
Liu Yishou was very cautious. He pondered for a few seconds and said, "You mean, as long as I make the movie according to your request, the follow-up has nothing to do with me?"
Because he had confidence in "Charlotte Troubles", after all, he was planning to find Zhang Bo as the protagonist, and his appeal would definitely be high. Li Yi subconsciously thought that Liu Yishou was trying to gain benefits.
Then I heard Zhang Ying'er say: "Yes, Director Liu, if you are worried, we can write this into the contract. I will be one of the producers and Mr. Li will also be on the set to supervise the production."
ah?
Put like this?
Li Yi clearly saw a few words in Liu Yishou: cautious and contented.
"That's no problem."
Liu Yishou agreed, as long as you don't take the blame, you can make money wherever you go.
Zhang Ying'er thought for a moment and then said: "In order to deepen our cooperation, Director Liu, would you like to consider signing under our company's name?
Of course, this decision can be made after cooperation, but you can rest assured that Fanxing will give a high degree of freedom to both artists and directors. "
"Well, I will seriously consider it."
Liu Yishou nodded and asked a series of questions: "How is the preparation of the crew? Have the actors been decided? There is also a script. When do you plan to start filming?"
"The start-up date is tentatively scheduled for May."
If nothing unexpected happens, according to the current progress, the recording of "Ultimate FHM" will be finished in May, and Li can also take a break.
He continued: "You can start the preparations for the crew now, and you can contact Yinger in this regard.
The male lead currently under consideration is Zhang Bo. I will communicate with him and I will also play a role in it.
I can send you the script now. "
Zhang Bo?
Five billion box office actor?
I can actually work with such an actor?
Liu Yishou was a little confused. Is this just a joke or is it serious?
He feels a little regretful now. What if he messed up?
Although there is an "exemption contract", the audience doesn't care. They may not scold Zhang Bo, but they will definitely catch him as the director to scold him.
'Hey, I've already agreed. Let's read the script first and then talk about it. '
After leaving the cafe, Liu Yishou returned home immediately and read the script.
The story is indeed written in detail. Li Yi cannot draw storyboards, but he tries his best to describe every scene in words. This part accounts for a large proportion of the script.
After spending more than an hour, Liu Yishou finally finished reading the script. He rubbed his neck, which had become a little sore from keeping his head down for a long time, and felt that his worries were much less.
This is at least a very mature story, with some bloody parts, but it is full of laughter and excitement, and he laughed out loud many times during the process.
'That's right, the part where you copied the song is full of ellipses. Haven't you decided who to copy?
There is also "The Voice of China". Was there this program before? '
Liu Yishou fell into deep thought, but he was too lazy to think about it. Anyway, he would write it how he would shoot it.
However, as a qualified tool man, he immediately drew the storyboard based on Li Yi's description.
Well, if you agree to let me film it, then the blame won't be on me.
After meeting Liu Yishou, Li Yi also sent the movie script to the Men's Gang group.
"Brother, how about you help me read this script I wrote?"
Not long after.
Wang Huaizhong: "?"
Zhang Lei: "??"
The two of them were surprised that Li Yigang had just proposed a variety show plan, and now he had come up with a script.
And an hour or two later, other people also gave comments one after another.
Zhang Bo: "It's good. The plot is very mature, with twists and turns and laughs."
Sun Yanlei: "Oh, in addition to writing songs, Xiaoyi also writes scripts?"
Zhu Zhixiang: "Brother Yi, the eternal god!"
Lin Xun: "Xiaoyi, are you going to make this movie? Have you decided on the actors?"
"."
After a few compliments, everyone asked Li Yi what he meant by posting the script, but he just replied in the group: "I'll elaborate more on the next recording meeting~"
Afterwards, Li Yi immediately called Zhang Bo and said straight to the point: "Brother Bo, what do you say, are you interested in Charlotte's role?"
The next day, Li Yi went to Zhang Lei's home.
After lunch, the two came to the study.
As soon as Zhang Lei sat down, he lit a cigarette and said with a frown: "You are doing a variety show and a movie. You are taking such big steps, aren't you really afraid of breaking your balls?"
"It will take a long time before the program is officially recorded. By shooting the movie first, we can raise some funds and help advertise the program." Li Yi expressed all his thoughts.
This is what Zhang Lei is worried about. How can a stupid boy be so naive and ensure that his movie will make money?
"You're still advertising. What are you going to do if the movie fails?" Zhang Lei was speechless. This was not to pour cold water on the movie, but to really think about Li Yi.
Who knows, Li Yi was not worried at all, and said very calmly: "It's okay, Brother Jie still has a house in the capital."
