After the new issue of "Movie Things" is broadcast, the ratings naturally need no further explanation.
And Li Yi's goal has been achieved, and the effect can be said to be pretty good.
At least after the show was broadcast, Li Yi clearly felt that there were not so many people asking for scripts anymore.
Because Li Yi directly told everyone that he wanted me to write a script, OK, but can you accept being a tool director who has no feelings?
Obviously, for the well-known directors in China, no one is willing to really be a tool.
As for directors who are willing to be tool men, of course there are many, but they obviously cannot reach Li Yi.
As for some of Li Yi's words in the program "Things About Movies", he never expected that they would become the successor to what he said at the premiere of "The Story of Hachiko": "It's a showdown, I just like it."
After "Look at you crying", another meme.
Silly netizens also made animated gifs.
The above is Li Yi in the show, pretending to be authentic: "Actually, I am also a tool man!"
Later, whenever a bad movie appeared, Li Yi's "Tool Man" animation would be used on a large scale.
However, fans also have expectations and disappointments for Li Yi's new film.
What we are looking forward to is that Director Dog has finally started his new film journey again. Compared with other directors, Li Yi is actually as productive as a sow.
But there is also disappointment.
What’s disappointing is Li Yi’s new film. Although it doesn’t reveal much in just a few words, it’s obviously director Gou’s usual style, a family drama? You’ll know right away that it’s a low-budget film.
Logically speaking, a director's way of fighting monsters and upgrading should be to fight small monsters first, such as "The Gift of Room No. 7", "Mom Love Me Again", etc., and "The Story of Hachiko"
"Having received more than 1 billion in box office, then Li Yi should have advanced and upgraded.
After that, he even won the Hong Kong Film Awards for Best Director, so should he upgrade the movie?
This is generally the case for directors from China. Once given the opportunity, they will definitely make blockbusters.
Therefore, everyone was originally looking forward to Li Yi, the billionaire director, and he has never disappointed, so the next movie will be a big production.
Then, Li Yi remained the same, still making his small-budget feature films.
This makes those fans who were expecting Li Yi to make big moves somewhat disappointed.
However, Li Yi doesn't care, not at all. Big productions are so easy to shoot.
Even if Goldfinger reminded him of some big productions, he would never touch them at this stage.
With his current ability, it is relatively easy to reproduce a feature film, but how can a large-scale production be so easy to reproduce?
Not to mention anything else, a crew, such as his current film "Daughter's Wedding Dress" or "Wedding Dress", can have up to a hundred people in a crew, but for a big production, there may be a maximum of one crew
There can be hundreds or thousands of people, and even some particularly large scenes can have thousands of people.
Can this compare?
Therefore, Li Yi has never been too ambitious to make any big productions.
Take "The Last Transfer of Money in Tang Dynasty Mobei" as an example. If this film is really expanded into a theatrical film, then there must be war scenes, right?
He is crazy to ask for trouble.
Isn’t it great to make a simple drama film?
Moreover, what happened to the low cost? Even if you shoot with a low cost, you can still beat the big production.
The troublesome matter has been solved, Li Yi has almost rested, and Mu Qing's character life experience is almost the same.
Therefore, soon, the new film "Daughter's Wedding Dress" officially entered the preparation stage.
Compared to "The Last Transfer in Tang Dynasty Mobei", Li Yi actually prefers to shoot this kind of low-cost drama, because it is really much easier.
This time, there was no need to choose the two heroines, one big and one small. Mu Qing played the heroine's single mother Gao Yun. For the other daughter, Li Yi was too lazy to continue looking for new actors and directly chose the one he had worked with before.
Fang Tongtong, a young actor in "The Gift of Room No. 7".
He directly gave the other roles to Zhuo Yixiong and Fanhai Film and Television, using them as favors and resource exchanges.
This is also something that becomes more helpless after becoming famous.
Because after becoming famous, even if it is a role that Li Yi feels is relatively insignificant, for Oceanwide Film and Television and for actors in the entertainment industry, it is an extremely scarce resource.
When Fanhai Film and Television will promote Li Yi's film, these resources can be used to replace some better publicity resources and distribution resources.
For example, the roles of uncle and aunt in the film are actually supporting roles, but they really don’t have much role.
This is because the film "Daughter's Wedding Dress" itself does not require too many actors, and it is also one of the reasons why Li Yi has not thought about making a big production.
Because for a large-scale production, the investment will definitely be high. At that time, some external investment will inevitably be accepted. At the same time, the scale of promotion will definitely be larger, so more resources will definitely be needed. Therefore, the interpersonal relationships of many large-scale production crews are extremely complicated.
When there are more people, all parties have their own interests and demands, so naturally there will be more bullshit. Various palace fights are often staged, which can be said to be a standard feature of large productions and large crews. p>
And these are the things that bother Li Yi the most.
"Daughter's Wedding Dress" is different. As a family drama, this film has a relatively simple story and focuses more on daily life. Therefore, it can even be said that it is better than the films Li Yi has made before.
, it must be simple.
However, even if it is only a low-budget film, because it is Li Yi's new film, the level of attention it receives is no less than that of some big productions.
No, at the launch conference, almost all the domestic entertainment media were present.
Hundreds of media people from all over the place gathered.
Many of these media reporters can be said to have watched Li Yi’s rise.
For example, Li Wen from Penguin Entertainment, and Zhou Qingquan from "Movie Weekly".
Looking at the crowd of colleagues and the grand occasion, Li Wen said with emotion: "I still remember the launch conference of "Mom Love Me Again", even if there was such a big fuss between Director Li and the people on Hong Kong Island.
There was no news, but only a few dozen people came, but now, there is no hype, and as a result, there are more than hundreds of media outlets here."
Zhou Qingquan smiled and said: "Yes, Director Li's rise is too fast. I have been in the industry for so many years, and I have rarely seen a director who has risen as fast as Director Li!"
"Haha, other directors, even if every movie is successful, are not as productive as Director Li!" Li Wen said with a smile.
"That's true, and there are not many billionaire directors in the country. I just don't know why Director Li doesn't seem to have the idea of making a big production." Zhou Qingquan said with a pity.
Although great achievements can be made at a small cost, in terms of influence, it is always difficult for a small cost to compare with a truly large production.
