Chapter 130 I’m afraid you’ll look like Shu Qi for half your life
It’s different from the splendor of Liu Yifei’s side.
Ren Zhonglun brought Li Chen to a quiet private restaurant in Pudong.
A two-story small Western-style building.
The facade is not big, but there is only one parking space at the door.
Li Chen and Ren Zhonglun got out of the car and were greeted by a young and beautiful cheongsam lady.
“Director Ren, please come inside.”
Ren Zhonglun nodded slightly.
The cheongsam lady raised her eyes and saw clearly the friend who came with Ren Dong.
Immediately smiled and said: "Director Li, welcome, please come inside."
Ren Zhonglun smiled and said: "Li Chen, although you are not a star, you are more famous than a star. People know you wherever you go."
The cheongsam lady did not interrupt, secretly thinking that this was true.
Li Chen was helpless: "I have no choice. In the entertainment industry, it is better to be known by someone than to be ignored by no one."
Ren Zhonglun smiled and said: "You are absolutely right."
The two went inside, and the cheongsam lady led them up to the second floor.
Li Chen looked around casually and saw that the decoration was carefully thought out, simple but not simple.
In the private room, the three-meter long ebony table was polished and shiny.
Li Chen and Ren Zhonglun sat down on the single sofa nearby.
The cheongsam lady poured tea for the two of them, bowed and quietly left.
"How is it? Is the environment okay?" Ren Zhonglun smiled.
"Not bad."
"Try this restaurant's Oyster King Original Juice and the best Australian abalone. You will never be disappointed."
Li Chen smiled and said: "Director Ren, no It’s necessary to spend so much money.”
“Hahaha, that’s right. If you feel embarrassed, then come over and be a judge for us.”
“I knew this meal was not that good. Delicious.”
Li Chen had guessed Ren Zhonglun's intention before he came today.
It’s nothing more than seeing myself participating in the Academy Awards.
So I also want to come and support the Magic City International Film Festival in mid-June.
The chairman of the Cannes Film Festival also called him.
I hope he can serve as a member of this year's Cannes jury together with Hong Kong's Sunglasses King.
However, Li Chen declined. Last year he visited all three major European universities, and this year he planned to take a break.
"How's it going? You've all gone to the Academy Awards. We are an international Category A film festival after all, and we can live up to your reputation as the Palme d'Or."
"Luc Besson and Feng Xiaogang are the judges. Vice Chairman of Tuanzheng, if I had known that you would attend the Academy Awards, this Vice Chairman would have approached you directly."
Li Chen thought for a moment and then said: "I can't reply to you now. I won't know until we get closer. There’s no time.”
Ren Zhonglun expressed his understanding, as long as Li Chen didn’t refuse.
The two chatted for a while, and then the waiter began to serve the dishes. It was completely a one-to-one butler-style service.
After the food is served, don’t forget to do a half-squat salute.
During the dinner, Ren Zhonglun mentioned the three books that Li Chen had just passed.
Li Chen didn't say anything, he only said that he would talk about it after returning to Beijing.
Over there, Cai Yinong also got the information he wanted from Yang Sisi.
"To Youth" currently only has a female lead, Yang Mi.
Cai Yinong smiled when he heard this: "Isn't this fate? Last year Hu Ge and Yang Mi didn't get the opportunity to play "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio". If we have the opportunity this year, Director Li can't refuse us anymore."
< br>Yang Siwei laughed: "It depends on my boss, I can't make the decision."
Cai Yinong rolled his eyes: "What about Yifei? You and Hu Ge are so familiar , help me beat the drum at Director Li’s head office.”
Liu Yifei is already somewhat used to these people’s jokes.
"Okay, but he is very opinionated, especially when it comes to casting, and he is very impersonal."
"He may not listen to what I say."
Li Chen's style , Cai Yinong heard about it.
I am afraid that except for Liu Yifei, I can get special treatment.
Others have never heard of such a big face.
There were rumors in the industry a while ago that Jiang Wen wanted to cast his old lover in the casting of "Thieves", but Li Chen didn't give him any face, which can be seen from this.
"It's natural. How can you not understand this, sister?"
Yang Siwei thought to himself, if you want to be sensible, you shouldn't mention it to Yifei.
Who do you think you are? You don’t understand any rules.
It’s really insincere to get a role just because you have a red mouth and white teeth.
In fact, it's not that Cai Yinong doesn't understand the rules, she understands the exchange of interests.
The key is that she doesn’t have the resources that Director Li is interested in, so how can she replace them.
Only by trapping Liu Yifei with favors can the country be saved.
The four of them were relatively harmonious, and it was not until almost nine o'clock that Liu Yifei said with a smile: "I guess Director Li won't come."
Yang Siwei immediately answered: "Mr. Cai , Hu Ge, it’s getting late.”
"Then let's stop here tonight, Hu Ge, give me Yifei and Sisi." Cai Yi said with a thick smile.
Hu Ge stood up, Liu Yifei put on a mask, baseball cap, and coat, and waved goodbye to Cai Yinong.
The three of them left the private room, and Hu Gecai said: "Yifei, stop talking. I will see Director Li tomorrow and talk to him myself. Maybe it will be better."
Yang Sisi nodded and smiled: "You are much more honest than your boss."
The three said goodbye.
On the way back, Yang Sisi secretly said that the Tang Dynasty and Zhou Yi were following the fantasy style of youth, which was different from the noon sunshine.
It's still pretty good now, but I don't know if "Crossing Guandong" can become a brand for Noon Sunshine.
Let Noon Sunshine suddenly emerge in the field of television.
Liu Yifei's phone ringing interrupted Yang Siwei's train of thought.
Yang Siwei smiled and said: "I guess it's the boss, pick it up quickly."
Unexpectedly, Liu Yifei shook her head and said no, it was Liu's mother.
Yang Siwei didn't want to hear the conversation between mother and daughter.
But Liu Yifei's inexplicable surprise really made her a little curious.
“Really? Mom?”
“That’s still fake. The company called me just now and their people have come to Beijing. I’ll meet them tomorrow to have a look first. , I don’t know if the time conflicts.”
"Hmm, then I'll wait for your news, mom."
After hanging up the phone, Liu Yifei still had a happy smile on her face.
"What are you so happy about, Yifei? It makes you happy."
"I can tell you, but you have to keep it a secret."
Yang Siwei nodded head, Liu Yifei whispered in her ear.
Yang Siwei's eyes widened when he heard this, and he was also happy for Liu Yifei.
But he immediately frowned, worried that the schedule would conflict.
“Forget it, don’t think about it. Once I meet the boss, let’s see what she says. This is indeed a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.”
“Among the Chinese directors, I’m afraid it’s only This person can beat the boss in terms of awards," Yang Siwei exclaimed.
"If there is a conflict, the worst possible outcome is that "Thieves" will be given to someone else." Liu Yifei said hopefully.
"My boss is so pitiful. You are the only one who dares to say this. You can say this!"
Back to the Hilton Hotel where the crew of "Those Years" stayed.
Not long after Li Chen came back, he saw the two people who entered the door smiling as if they had half-stepped their smiles.
"What's wrong? You're smiling like a pair of Qiang evil spirits!"
Liu Yifei sat next to Li Chen with a smile and took the initiative to hold Li Chen's arm affectionately.
Yang Siwei sat across from him and just wanted to see the wonderful expression on his boss's face when he was abandoned by his wife.
"Would you be angry if I didn't act in "Thieves"?" Ms. Liu's voice was soft and crisp.
Li Chen said funnyly: "Why should I be angry, but at least there must be a reason?"
"Did someone give our Miss Liu the ecstasy drug?" Li Chen thought in his mind Dark background, it can't be "The King of Kung Fu", right? Not that fast?
Liu Yifei couldn't hide her thoughts: "People from Director Li An's company contacted Red Star House today."
Before Liu Yifei finished speaking, Li Chen was trembling.
Oh my god, this is "The King of Kung Fu", it's "Lust, Caution"!
How could I have forgotten this, but when I thought about it, it seemed that Miss Liu and her daughter did not agree to Li Min in the end.
How excited are you?
"What's wrong with you?" Before Miss Liu finished speaking, she noticed that her boyfriend looked wrong.
Yang Siwei sat across from him and suppressed his laughter.
"It's okay, please continue. Is it because Li Min has a movie appointment with you, so he doesn't like me, the Palme d'Or, and wants to climb the Oscar tree?"
I was exposed, Liu Yifei's face turned red and she hit Li Chen: "How can you say it is so unpleasant?"
"I won't be able to shoot your movie, but the movie directed by Li Min is not something you can get." .”
Li Chen nodded and smiled: "That's right. I hope you can get what you want."
The more Li Chen thought about it, the funnier he became. Unexpectedly, Liu's mother's face changed after she learned about the content of the script and Li Min's request. What kind of expression will it look like?
"You agree?" Liu Yifei didn't expect it to go so smoothly.
I am also planning to give my boyfriend a hard time tonight.
“Boss, why do you smile so weirdly?”
"Yes, your smile is so annoying!" Liu Yifei felt something was wrong and pouted.
Li Chen pinched Miss Liu's cheek lovingly: "I know Li Min's play well."
"I'm afraid if you really want to act in it, you may have to do it for the rest of your life. I learned from Miss Shu Qi from Hong Kong!"
When these words came out, both Yang Siwei and Liu Yifei were stunned.
“What do you mean?” Liu Yifei was a little angry.
"It means that we have to imitate her and put on the clothes she took off one by one."
"Ah"
Liu Yifei's lips were slightly opened, and Yang Siwei was stunned on the spot.
“Boss, you, you mean, that play is.”
“Yes, it’s what you think.”
Seeing Miss Liu's cute look in a daze, Li Chen couldn't help but pinch her tender face again.
“Do you still want to act? Sissy?”
Miss Liu finally reacted. Her eyes were filled with disbelief and her face was even redder. She opened Li Chen’s hand and said, “I hate it. ! How do you know if it’s true?”
Actually, Liu Yifei already believed it when she said this.
There is no need for your boyfriend to lie to himself.
"Of course I know that his drama is an adaptation of Zhang Ailing's novel, and Ren Zhonglun, who I just met, is one of the producers."
Liu Yifei completely believed it this time, and she suddenly burst into tears The angry ball.
There is no more joy than before.
"Then, let me call my mother."
Li Chen nodded and agreed with a smile. In fact, it didn't matter whether he called or not.
When Liu's mother saw the script and heard Li Min's request, she would definitely refuse it for Miss Liu.
But Li Chen didn’t stop her and asked Miss Liu to give Mother Liu a vaccination.
“Boss, if Li Amun makes this kind of film, I’m afraid the mainland will have to ban it again, right?” Yang Siwei suddenly thought of Beibei Mountain.
Li Chen waved his hand: "That's not necessarily the case, just delete the passionate scene. Even if it is banned in the mainland, it will not affect Li Min's fame and fortune."
Yang Siwei You are right. With Li Min's reputation and ability, there is still a huge market in Europe and North America.
After finishing the phone call, Ms. Liu was in a low mood. She sat next to Li Chen with her shoulders slumped and her pretty face drooped.
"My mother was shocked. She said she would meet the other party tomorrow. If that was the case, she would refuse it for me."
Yang Siwei slipped away quietly.
Li Chen hugged Miss Liu and kissed her forehead.
I glanced at Yang Siwei's back again, secretly thinking that you know the truth.
"Okay, don't be unhappy. You don't want this kind of opportunity. You are still young. As long as I am here, you will have many opportunities."
Liu Yifei was not convinced and pointed at Li Chen's forehead with one finger: "Say It seems like you are just five years older than me!"
Seeing her smile, Li Chen stepped forward and suddenly pecked her red lips, greedily sucking the juice from her mouth! Sweet.
Ms. Liu took the initiative to hold the back of Li Chen's neck and responded passively, showing little interest.
Li Chen's hands naturally caressed her breast gracefully.
"Uh-huh, come in, come into the room, not here."
Miss Liu was panting, her eyes were blurred, and she was gradually emotional.
Short black hair, black pupils, black shirt, and the black night outside the window.
The boyfriend in front of me seemed to be one with the dark night.
Stretching his arms lightly, he picked her up easily, strode into the bedroom, closed the door with one foot, and threw her heavily on the soft big bed
The next day, the road show for the theater was unprecedentedly grand, and Li Chen saw many familiar faces.
Lei Jiayin, Wan Qian, Xiao Songjia.
These three have all acted in films and TV shows produced by Rongchen Pictures.
Song Jia's "Crossing Guandong" also counts.
And Hu Ge’s future girlfriend Jiang Shuying.
And the good man is my Zeng Xiaoxian and the little cheetah who became famous all at once.
The theater where I went to the theater was overcrowded. Except for the media and a few movie fans, they were basically all students who went to the theater.
The school’s security staff is on duty all weekends.
Otherwise, moviegoers will have to squeeze out the theater.
Xue Xiaolu and Li Chen stood on the stage.
All the main creators, including Li Chen, all wore the white slim-fitting school uniforms from "Those Years", full of youthfulness.
The students and media sitting below rushed to ask questions.
But as I kept asking, the direction of the questions gradually went astray.
Chen He laughed the most lively: "Director Li, Director Li, my name is Chen He, and I volunteered to play the role of Chen Xiaozheng!"
The students at the scene laughed and cursed.
"Old Chen, can you show some face?"
"Hehe, please look in the mirror. How do you look like Chen Xiaozheng, except for the last name!"
The little cheetah on the side also raised his head high. hand.
"Director Li, I think I am more like Chen Xiaozheng!"
Li Chen on the stage couldn't help laughing, you look like a fart!
The place was lively and noisy, and the aisles were full of people.
It was Hu Ge, Wan Qian, and Lei Jiayin who took the initiative to maintain order and prevented chaos.
The person in charge of the theater was a teacher from the acting department. He stood with Xue Xiaolu and took the opportunity to challenge Li Chen.
"Director Li, you see how enthusiastic our theater students are, why don't we give them a chance."
The students became even more excited when the teacher said this.
Li Chen had no choice but to stand up and speak.
“Actually, look at it, I personally have a soft spot for students who go to theater.”
“But your company didn’t sign anyone who went to theater from us, right? Classmates." Chen He shouted.
Li Chen laughed and said: "You are right to say that. Although the first artist I signed was not a performer, he was an out-and-out Shanghainese."
Li Chen looked back at Tang Yan: "Really, Tangtang."
Tang Yan took the microphone: "That's right, but boss, if you can sign a classmate who can act in the theater in the future, I believe the students will have no complaints."
"You said, right, students?"< br>
Li Chen did not expect that Tang Yan had such a skill and defeated his own army.
"Yes, Tang Yan is right."
"Yang Mi is from Beidian, Tang Yan is from Zhongxi, how can we be in the movie without us? Director Li must treat them equally! ”
The scene was rioting again, and the "Those Years" road show was completely off topic.
