Chapter 83

The success of the movie "Capture the King" not only once again proved the quality assurance of the gold medal screenwriter of the big-name director, Yan Dao also pushed his son Yan Sa, who had just stepped into the film and television industry, to the stage, and cooperated with Dong Sheng to shoot a very A niche and sensitive gay film.

Yan Sa had already shown his talent when he was in school, and he had made several short literary and artistic short films with fringe themes, and he was considered a little famous.

Li Yibei has read the script. It is a very small and fresh story, pure and beautiful, without any particularly brilliant plots, but the rhythm is relaxed and the details are handled very meticulously.However, considering the review, there are obvious traces of cutting in the middle, and even the inner monologues of the characters have been polished to reduce the feeling of conflict.

This kind of fixation is destined to be popular or not, but Yan Sa's debut is very smart. It not only conforms to his usual style, but also caters to the tastes of film critics. Even if it fails, this low-key opening will not be maliciously ridiculed.

Such a movie is not even worthless to Dongsheng, who is operating purely on a commercial basis. The higher-ups are not willing to make this movie, but they can't save the face of Director Yan, so they can only follow up and let Li Yibei take charge of it. , the euphemistic name is that young people are active in thinking and can touch unexpected sparks.

Li Yibei has nothing to do, he is in the rising stage of his career, the choice is not so wide, the only thing to do is to do the current thing well.

He and Yan Sa don't have much difference in the script, but the starring role is a troublesome issue.

Dongsheng has been advocating for Ye Qin recently, so this film naturally has to get in the way, even if Ye Qin doesn't match everything except appearance and temperament.Reiki is far from being able to make up for the lack of acting skills, not to mention Ye Qin has always had problems with his attitude in filming.

Yan Sa has very strict requirements on his works, and it is impossible to accept such a big flaw.

Li Yibei also agreed with Ye Qin to take this role. The difficulty of this film is almost all in the handling of the characters' emotions, which is a test of acting skills.

The best route he planned for Yeqin was commercials, MVs, and idol dramas, not literary films that exposed acting skills.

Liang told him clearly that this was impossible, and the two sides were at a stalemate, and finally they compromised.

Li Yibei is now very familiar with Liang Jiping, and he was blunt in his office, "I don't care whose game Ye Qin is playing, but it can't affect my work."

"An excellent manager must have the ability to turn stones into gold. Anyone can discover the advantages. If you want to be successful, you have to cover up the flaws of your artists and maximize the benefits. If there is no influence, it will not affect this statement. You are too emphatic It’s a big taboo in this line of work if you lose your ego.”

"I understand what you said, but there are some people who don't want to break the stage."

Playing with Ye Qin is Tang Yuan's popular idol Xia Quansheng, who has outstanding looks, first-class acting skills, and a confusing identity, belonging to a rare acting school among the younger generation.

On the day of the audition, Xi Xia Quansheng arrived early, wearing a vigorous sportswear and a baseball cap, and greeted the people on the scene with a smile.

Li Yibei has some impressions of Xia Quansheng. This person attracted much attention as soon as he debuted. He became popular and disappeared suddenly. He was a flash in the pan in the entertainment circle, and he was often mentioned by the media in the next few years.

Ye Qin arrived late, but was still sent by Lan Ze.

Li Yibei only met this man once in Ruili, and the impression was so deep that when he saw those eyes again, he still had the feeling of being bitten by a poisonous snake.

Ye Qin smiled apologetically, with a look of exhaustion on his face, and the new assistant behind him seemed to feel the pressure from the surroundings, and he was terrified, lest it would hurt Chi Yu.

Ye Qin's former assistant was Ding Xiao, and he would report Ye Qin's work schedule to him, but as soon as Cao Chen came back, this guy went to work for the old owner, without even saying hello to him.

Li Yibei looked at his watch, "I'm really remiss, I don't know about your whereabouts to this extent, when I have time, we can talk about it."

Ye Qin's audition was just a formality, Li Yibei didn't look at the result, and went to the lounge next door to smoke a cigarette.

In the evening, Lan Shu invited him to dinner, his voice felt far away through the phone.

"Another day, I want to meet with investors tonight to discuss the details." Li Yibei refused.They have not been in touch for many days, and there is nothing wrong with it, or he subconsciously refuses to meet.

He faintly realizes that he and Lan Shu may never be able to get closer, and either return to the position of friends, or fall into a worse situation.

Dongsheng didn't plan to focus on investing in this movie. The main creative team is not elite, but the direct investment is pitifully small, so the investment part has to be redeveloped.Fortunately, the cost of the film was well controlled, except for the high salary of the lead actor Xia Quansheng, it was a veritable small cost.

In the afternoon, Li Yibei and the representative of the investor made an appointment to negotiate at a hotel. Since it was the first time they cooperated, he was afraid that his age would give the impression of being unreliable, so he specially brought along a senior producer.

The process was much smoother than expected. After dinner, Li Yibei left after talking about some scenes. His student face outside of work is actually not suitable for socializing.He knew this himself, and the rest of the film was handed over to another producer.

When he turned the corridor, someone behind him called his name, "Yi Bei."

Li Yuege's voice is the usual address when outsiders are present.

Li Yibei frowned impatiently, but turned around with a polite smile on his face.

Li Yuege was surrounded by a few strange young people, tall and straight, with similar auras, and their eyes looked a little sharp and intimidating when they looked at people.It seemed that he was Li Yuege's classmate.

Li Yuege walked a little behind and greeted them briefly before coming over.

He was wearing a suit today, elegant and decent, with a personable appearance.

When the two entered the elevator, Li Yuege leaned over, chuckled very close to him, and said in a relaxed tone, "About work?"

"Yeah." Li Yibei tugged on Li Yuege's decent tie, "Why are you still in Beijing?"

"I just encountered something, and I may stay for a long time." Li Yuege pulled his hand to his lips and kissed it, but let it go quickly, "I was thinking about taking some time to see you, why? ,recently, I am busy?"

Asking this question is purely nonsense, he is now in Beijing, Li Yibei is equivalent to under his nose, there is nowhere to hide.

"It's okay." Li Yibei is actually not used to Li Yuege being so quiet, he stared suspiciously at Li Yuege's eyes, "You seem to be very busy?"

"It's just a little personal grievance, it's just a little tricky." Li Yuege wanted to talk to him about his own affairs, but he couldn't explain too much and spoke vaguely.

For some reason, Li Yibei thought of Zhou Lang.

The elevator door opened and someone came in, so Li Yuege distanced himself from him, "I still have something to do now, I'll visit you another day."

After finishing speaking, he got out of the elevator, as if he had just come to talk to him before.

Li Yibei didn't take it too seriously. The goodbye to Li Yuege was at the opening ceremony of the new film. The main creators and leading actors were all present, and several media were invited in a very low-key manner.

Li Yuege was in the audience. He saw Li Yibei first, then Ye Qin and Yan Sa, and finally saw Xia Quansheng and raised his eyebrows. This is really an interesting combination.

Li Yibei saw Li Yuege on stage, still in a suit and leather shoes, sitting next to the film investor, occasionally exchanging a few words, it seemed that the conversation was very happy, and the reporter's camera occasionally turned to scan.

I waited until the reporter started to ask questions about the lead actor Li Yibei before going down.

Li Yuege followed him to the lounge next to him, and as soon as the door closed, he asked, "Is that director Yan Sa?"

Li Yibei poured himself a glass of water, and gave Li Yuege a strange look, "You still remember him?"

"I'm not impressed." Li Yuege loosened his tie and unbuttoned two shirts, "Why did you get together with these people? That Ye Qin was sold to Dongsheng by Lan Shu, and he also had a dead one. Brother and Lan Shu are also inseparable. Lan Ze uses him to tease his own brother, why are you wading in the middle of the muddy water, and Xia Quansheng, if you don’t need to contact him, you should have less contact.”

Li Yibei said a lot just now, but now his mouth is parched, and he doesn't have the patience to care about Ye Qin and Xia Quansheng, holding a cup to drink water without making a sound.

It was rare for Li Yuege to see him quiet and not awkward, and he felt that his tone seemed to be a bit too much, so he changed the subject, "I told my family to go back to dinner with you tonight."

Li Yibei almost choked on the water, and looked at him inexplicably in surprise, "Li Yuege, are you alright?"

"Have you been emphasizing that my parents don't accept it? Why are you afraid now?"

"I'm not afraid, but I think it's very funny." Li Yibei put the cup on the table and rubbed the corners of his twitching eyes, "Where did you get the confidence that I will definitely go back with you?"

"Because the opponent is Lan Shu, he is not suitable for you, and you know it yourself." Li Yuege returned what Li Yibei said to him intact.

"Don't blur the focus, can you? The problem between us has nothing to do with anyone else, and it has nothing to do with your parents." Li Yibei was forced to ask a little at a loss for words, his eyelashes drooping, slightly annoyed, "This is me question, I need some time."

"I gave you four years of college."

"It's not just four years, it's many years. Now you want me to accept something that I've rejected for many years, and I'm not used to it." Li Yibei finally met Li Yuege's gaze and answered honestly once.

In the end, he and Li Yuege didn't go to see his parents at night.Of course Li Mingcen and Bai Tian would not blame him, and even greeted him with smiles, they would always only take good care of their son, indirectly making him feel disheartened.
