Chapter 460: There is no need to really cultivate feelings for this!
The movie Li Yi thought of, "The Pursuit of Happiness", made him suddenly unable to help laughing.
Then I immediately called Chen Wen.
"Brother, do you know how to play Rubik's Cube?" Li Yi asked confusedly.
"Why are you asking this suddenly? No, what's wrong?" Chen Wen was confused.
In fact, it was mainly because "The Truman Show" had just been released not long ago, so he never expected that Li Yi would have new ideas so soon.
"Really?" Li Yi asked curiously.
"I really don't know how to play that thing. I tried it, but I really don't have any talent. I couldn't even play it after watching the tutorial." Chen Wen said.
"Haha! Then you have to practice hard." Li Yi said happily.
"No, why should I be looking for abuse? No, you don't have any weird roles for me to play, right?" Chen Wen said speechlessly.
"Ahem, didn't you say that you, a great actor, can only play some weird roles while I'm at it? This time it's the protagonist. No, the script hasn't even been written yet, so I'll call you as soon as possible
Yes!" Li Yi said with a smile.
"No, none of the donkeys in the production team are as productive as you, so they have new ideas so quickly?" Chen Wen asked in surprise.
Li Yi is indeed a highly prolific director among domestic directors, no, not only domestically, but also globally.
Of course, the special period of Hong Kong's golden age does not count.
And the key is that Li Yi's movies are all big hits.
It's so high-yield and able to sell everything in a big way, it's really giving people no way to survive.
"It's still early for the movie to start filming. Shouldn't I share such good news with you in advance? You are a great actor and you are so popular that I don't have to say hello in advance?" Li Yi said jokingly.
He actually looks like he is making an animated movie, but in fact, he is really not busy. It can be truly said that if he talks, the people below him will have to run away and break their legs.
There is no need for him to intervene in management matters. He is only responsible for saying what kind of effect he wants and how to achieve it. It is not his business.
Making animated films is boring, but that's for those who actually do it, not him.
Even Li Yi doesn't need to communicate with other people. He only needs to tell Zhang Haiyang his thoughts, or if he is dissatisfied with the results, he can tell Zhang Haiyang himself and talk to the people below him.
Of course, it is definitely impossible for Li Yi to start a new film so soon at this stage, but as he said, it does not prevent him from sharing the news with Chen Wen as soon as possible.
"Is he really the protagonist this time? Isn't he some weird character?" Chen Wen asked suspiciously.
"Ask my brother, my conscience, it seems that you took the initiative to take on all those weird roles, right? However, you can rest assured this time, it is definitely a positive role that cannot be more positive!" Li Yi said with a smile.
Indeed, "The Pursuit of Happiness" is an inspirational movie, and the male protagonist in it is definitely positive enough!
"Besides, I'm not worried that Brother Wen won't know how to play the Rubik's Cube. Look, you really can't. And the male protagonist in my new story is a Rubik's Cube master! So, Brother Wen, can you prepare in advance?
!" Li Yi said.
"Then I have to thank you?" Chen Wen rolled his eyes.
"That's not necessary! It should be! Haha!" Li Yi couldn't help but laugh again.
"First tell me what the story is." Chen Wen still couldn't help but ask.
Li Yi simply told the story of "When Happiness Knocks on the Door".
"You really know how to find people. Do you know why I went to Beijing Film Academy? It's because I'm very good at mathematics and I've never passed the exam!" Chen Wen couldn't help complaining.
Li Yi really didn't know, but he became more and more happy.
"That's true, but this is more challenging, and isn't it more gimmicky?"
"By the way, Brother Wen, you have nothing to do anyway. Why don't you help me find a role for your son, and then directly cultivate the relationship by the way? It will be easier when the movie starts shooting." Li Yi added.
"Director Li, you are really good at calling people. Why am I so free?" Chen Wen said angrily.
"Is that okay?" Li Yi asked without taking it seriously.
"Okay, how about I look for a wife too?" Chen Wen said angrily.
In the end, he didn't expect that Li Yi actually nodded directly and said: "That's good! Then it's settled?"
"Are you really..." Chen Wen had the urge to slap himself in the mouth.
"However, ask Brother, there is no need to really cultivate feelings for this!" Li Yi added.
Then Chen Wen hung up the phone directly!
Li Yi was in a good mood, but it didn't mean that Li Yi just let Chen Wen choose someone casually.
Mainly in the movie "The Pursuit of Happiness", the male protagonist takes up most of the film, and the movie is not complicated at all.
The most important thing for the role of the hero's son is that he and Chen Wen should be on the same father-son basis, so it would be no problem for Chen Wen to find him.
At the same time, he can also directly take care of the baby and cultivate feelings.
As for the role of the hero's wife, it was actually not that important. Li Yi was too lazy to look for it himself, so he simply left it to Chen Wen.
Of course, what I said next was just a joke. If Chen Wen really wanted to develop a relationship with his "wife" in the movie, then Li Yi would have no objection at all.
Back to Xingman, Li Yi said it was work, but in fact, "WALL-E" as a whole has already been on the right track, and it fully complies with Li Yi's requirements.
What Li Yi actually needs is to take care of the details at the critical moment. The rest of the time, he is quite free.
No, Director Mu came to "visit the class" and was then kept by Li Yi.
Li Yi has the largest independent office in Xingman, which also has a separate bedroom. It is on the top floor of the office building where Xingman is located, and the sound insulation effect is quite good.
Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing else but to experience the fun of “working in the office” together!
There's nothing wrong with that. Offices are meant for getting things done!
It’s really down to business!
"MTV, do you still remember Huang Qiudong?" Mu Qing asked.
"Remember, what? She is looking for you?" Li Yi was confused.
"Well, I'll have to call Director Huang from now on." Mu Qing said with a smile.
"You've been promoted? That's great!"
"So she asked you for help?" Li Yi looked at Mu Qing again and asked.
"Well, actually, she mainly wanted to find you. There was another version of the story of "Lilac" that had not been filmed, so she came to me and wanted me to ask you." Mu Qing said.
"Are you interested in taking pictures?" Li Yi looked at Mu Qing.
Mu Qing nodded and said, "Yes! Do you think it's okay?"
"What's wrong with that? Don't you know the story? You can take pictures if you want." Li Yi said with a smile.
"Speaking of which, we have to thank Director Huang for..." Speaking of which, the song "Lilac" and this online movie were also regarded as matchmakers for Li Yi and Mu Qing at that time.
For Mu Qing and Li Yi, it has a relatively special meaning.
I didn't shoot it directly because at that time, having two versions of a song was not necessarily a good thing.
But now that it has been a few years, when I take it out again, it actually has a sentimental bonus.
