tearjerker director

Chapter 244 Another Film Projectionist
Zhuang Mu's enthusiasm and interest in "Things About That Rabbit That Year" were somewhat beyond Li Yi's expectations.

The next day, Zhuang Mu took the initiative to visit the door and visited Xingman's studio.

And after watching some of the clips that Xingman Studio had already produced, as well as the rough outline of the script, Zhuang Mu made a decisive decision and decided to pre-order this animation on behalf of Jingnan TV Station!
Compared with CCTV, local satellite TV has greater autonomy in this regard.

And from Zhuang Mu's point of view, he definitely took advantage of it, that is, because "Things About That Rabbit That Year" hadn't been produced yet, so he didn't submit it for trial, otherwise, he probably didn't have anything to do with him at all.

People from CCTV may care about other aspects, but they will definitely attach great importance to animation works with themes like "Things About That Rabbit That Year".

More importantly, Zhuang Mu was surprised to discover Li Yi's identity.

What is Li Yi's identity?
Hong Kong Island film director!
A Hong Kong Island film director made an animation of this theme.

Zhuang Mu understood what this meant and what it meant.

That's why he was so eager to directly express to the children's channel of Jingnan TV station that he wanted to buy this animation directly.

Li Yi didn't expect that the stardom of "Things About That Rabbit That Year" was so simple.

Even before the production was completed, Zhuang Mu, the channel director, came to the door on his own initiative.

The two sides also hit it off.

If possible, of course Li Yi and the others still hope to be on the CCTV Children's Channel, but after all, the uncertainty is too great, so based on the principle that one thing more is worse than one thing less, and Zhuang Mu is really sincere, so Li Yi naturally Will not refuse.

Also, this is only the first season.

The matter of animation has come to an end, and the next step is to wait for the production of Xingman to be completed, and then it will be broadcast online.

On Li Yi's side, he found his mentor Li Mingshan again.

What Li Yi didn't expect was that after Li Mingshan read the script of Li Yi's "Paradise Cinema".

He didn't recommend candidates immediately, but looked disappointed.

Then Li Mingshan looked at Li Yi with a gratified face and said, "Okay, this story is really good!"

"Next year's Beijing International Film Festival, submit your film!" Li Mingshan said suddenly.

"Huh? Beijing International Film Festival?" Li Yi was a little confused.

In fact, regarding film festivals, film awards, etc., Li Yi won the best director at the Hong Kong Island Film Awards before.

It's not unreasonable for those people to say that Li Yi is entirely the reason why he is the young director of Hong Kong Island.

Because Li Yi's films in the past, to put it bluntly, were actually more commercial films, even if "The Story of Hachiko the Faithful Dog" was said to be a bit literary, but in fact, there are still strong commercial elements.

So, don't look at Li Yi's high box office, but there are really only a handful of awards, especially awards.

But this time, after reading the script of "Paradise Cinema", Li Mingshan felt that this movie was completely different from Li Yi's other movies before.

In addition, he is also a member of the organizing committee of this year's Beijing International Film Festival, so it is natural that the fat and water will not flow to outsiders.

"Yeah, well, you just remember, let's talk about the actors, actually I have a ready-made candidate, Chen Jianghe, you should know about it?" Li Mingshan didn't say much, but asked with a smile.

"Chen Jianghe? Teacher, do you think he is suitable?" Li Yi was a little taken aback.

It's no wonder that Li Yi was stunned, because of course he knew Chen Jianghe, Huaguo's veteran actor, and he had won more than one.

The point is that Chen Jianghe can be said to be the banner figure of countless actors in Huaguo.

Because he almost never participates in any variety shows, usually very low-key, and he and Chen Wen are completely different types.

Chen Wen is notoriously difficult to deal with as an actor. He always thinks too much, and naturally he will easily get unhappy with the director.

But Chen Jianghe is different. The directors he has worked with are almost universally praised for him.

But what surprised Li Yi was that Chen Jianghe was most famous for his "tyrant" aura.

Because almost all of his award-winning plays are of this type.

So over time, people feel that he is some kind of emperor, prince or other professional household.

Simply put, the impression he shows on the big and small screens is always that of a king or a domineering person.

"Hahaha! Do you think my recommendation of Chen Jianghe doesn't match the character in your movie?" Li Mingshan couldn't help laughing and asked.

"Yes! Isn't it?" Li Yi asked suspiciously.

"Of course not! The reason why you have such an impression is entirely because, in the past few years, he has played many such roles, and he is the kind of person who plays what he looks like, so, on the contrary, it gives people a feeling It's an illusion, as if he can only play that kind of high-ranking prince and general, but in fact, the reason why I say he is suitable is not without reason." Li Mingshan shook his head and said.

"You probably don't know that Chen Jianghe first worked as a film projectionist!" Li Mingshan said with a smile.

"Isn't it?" Li Yi really didn't know.

"Hehe, there are many things you don't know. Chen Jianghe has played many roles, ranging from emperors and generals to businessmen and soldiers. The reason why I recommend him to play is because he once had a movie projectionist's job." Experience. Do you think this is a kind of fate?" Li Mingshan asked with a smile.

"Besides, it's good for you to cooperate with old actors like Chen Jianghe, and you'll know in the future." Li Mingshan said again, but this time it was on point.

Li Yi understood what Li Mingshan meant. Sometimes if a movie wants to be recognized by certain people, actors are also very important.

For some actors, as long as the films they act in, it is very easy to nominate them, not to mention winning awards.

Especially actors like Chen Jianghe and Chen Wen, as long as they star in a certain movie, and this movie is more literary, they will naturally be noticed by many movie awards and film festivals.

The probability of winning the prize will naturally be much higher!

And why is Li Yi obviously famous and the box office is even more scary, but in terms of awards, he seems to have nothing but the Hong Kong Island Film Awards.

On the one hand, it is because the film is a commercial film, and on the other hand, it is because most of the actors Li Yi has worked with are not professional artists who have won awards!

Li Yi didn't quite believe it at first, but after seeing Chen Jianghe, Li Yi was really surprised.

I am used to seeing Chen Jianghe's "dominant" aura on the big screen, but I didn't expect that in private, Chen Jianghe spoke in a calm and soothing tone, with a sincere smile on his face. image?
And Chen Jianghe and Li Yi talked about their experience as a film projectionist.

Li Yi finally understood why Teacher Li Mingshan said it was a kind of fate.

Because in Chen Jianghe's description, his exposure to movies and his career in acting have a lot to do with that experience.
