After a day''s rest, Liang Kun called several friends and Yingyi entertainment people together to treat them to dinner.
We talked very hard. Liang Kun wanted to know about the recent domestic situation, and others also wanted to know about him in the United States. Here, only Liang Kun has made a film in Hollywood, and the box office of his first film exceeded 100 million. Andy Lau also wants to hear his feelings.
Liang Kun is the small boss of Yingyi entertainment. It is right to care about the development of the company. As the second leader of the company, he also said a few words and looked forward to the future.
"Many people are optimistic that our company will be listed in China in the future. Although I do well in the United States, this is a domestic career and an important base. I hope the company will get better and better. So as long as I am free and inspired, I will continue to write TV dramas and video scripts suitable for shooting in China."
"Do you have time to make a film in China? We haven''t cooperated yet." Andy Lau asked with a smile.
"The schedule is quite full recently. It will probably have to wait for 2008 to make a film in China." Liang Kun is not shirking it. He has a lot of work in Hollywood.
There are currently three films he must participate in. Escape from the chamber of secrets, the lost lover, Batman: the dark knight. If he wants to be in Nolan''s film, he has to be in a hurry. Parallel world, the dark knight was shot from June to November 2007, with a long cycle.
He couldn''t stay in China until the end of May. He had to go back to the United States in advance to see the actual construction of the secret room.
There are a large number of live scenes in the film, and Liang Kun has given the basic idea. Most of the scenes are very simple. It is difficult to arrange the inverted secret room and the study with constantly squeezed space. If Liang Kun is not satisfied, he will have to make some more changes. Of course, he doesn''t have to go back too early. When arranging the real scene behind, the crew can shoot the play in front first.
Andy Lau really wants to cooperate with Liang Kun. He is too valuable and has few choices.
He just finished filming the film "attack of ink" during the Chinese New Year. He talked with Liang Kun about this film. Liang Kun didn''t suggest him to take it. He thought the crew couldn''t shoot well.
However, because the film pay is relatively high, Andy Lau has no better choice of large-scale production, so he went. After filming, he found that this film based on Japanese comics was really not very good.
During the spring and Autumn period and the Warring States period, Zhao Jun attacked the city and finally went there in a hot-air balloon. According to the development speed of science and technology, Qi Bolin airship should have appeared in the Song Dynasty. Yue Fei could really fly and threw a burning bottle at the Jin military camp on the airship.
Liang Kun did not make Chinese films and gave some suggestions. "I suggest making a low-cost comedy first, which is easy to achieve high box office. Very perfect is a successful example. I''m not confident of making a big script in the short term."
Liang Kun has a lot of big scripts in his mind. He doesn''t know if he can be popular in advance. It''s better not to try.
Andy Lau is quite successful as an actor and a boss. However, the red task that he wants to be a good boss has not been completed. He is stuck at 90%, which makes Liang Kun a little depressed.
Liang Kun took over the red task of Chen Qiaoen, Gao Weiguang and others. Now he has completed 80% and is almost catching up. It is said that Yingyi entertainment has a strong army. Every TV play makes money. Andy Lau should be a good boss. However, he has an obsession with films and hopes that the company can also invest in more successful films.
In the past, the two cooperated. Many people said that Liang Kun held Andy Lau''s thigh. Now in turn, netizens have lamented Andy Lau''s good luck and held brother Kun''s thigh.
Sun Rui asked, "brother Kun, do you still write the TV play this year? The lost lover is so popular in the United States. Wasn''t your idea a TV play at the beginning? Can we shoot this?"
"Of course you can shoot it later. It''s best to wait a few years. Because I want to make a film first, Spielberg is optimistic that this idea will impact the Oscar and Golden Globe Awards. It''s better to put the TV series after the film," Liang Kun explained.
There was an uproar. When they were still filming TV dramas in China, Liang Kun had made progress towards the international awards.
Gong Wei said with a smile, "the people''s Literature Publishing House contacted me and wanted to publish the lost lover. Do you have a Chinese version? Or do they find someone to translate?"
"Without translation, I wrote the original in Chinese and then translated it into English." Liang Kun smiled.
Xu Zhenzhen asked, "Yanjing satellite TV wants to interview you. Do you have time?"
"Yes, I''ll go there sometime."
Xu Guowei has been promoted to the head of Yanjing satellite TV and has achieved a win-win situation with Yingyi entertainment. "Yingyi dramas" were premiered on Yanjing satellite TV and all ranked among the top ten in the national ratings list.
Liang Kun prefers to be interviewed by satellite TV. They are all acquaintances. If he has anything bad to say, he can edit it.
Everyone is looking for Liang Kun to talk. He is the core of today''s party.
After chatting, he found a serious problem. Everyone is waiting for his new script. If we don''t shoot the script he wrote, the actors of Yingyi entertainment can''t be so popular in every film.
In China, there are too few reliable TV dramas and fewer good films broadcast every year. Liu Yifei has to shoot large-scale TV dramas with a long cycle. The bearded version of the eagle warrior started shooting in October 2004 and is only released now.
The lack of talents in the mainland''s film and television circles has made most of the films not beautiful enough, even with a local flavor.
Xiangjiang''s pay for TV dramas is low, and he doesn''t like to use mainland actors. Andy Lau can send them to Xiangjiang''s crew by virtue of his contacts, but when they have become famous, it is of little significance for them to shoot. "Little younger martial sister" he Meidian went to Xiangjiang from the mainland and didn''t make much money after mixing with TVB for many years.
The pay for making movies in Xiangjiang is higher. Yingyi entertainment, a group of young people, lack experience and are not good at competing with Cantonese speaking stars. In addition, after shooting several high ratings TV dramas, the actors'' value has also increased, and they can''t pick up the play casually. Without making bad films on the street, they have no reason to reduce their value.
Andy Lau''s idea is that we first pick up a few plays outside and try to choose a crew with promising scripts and high pay.
The company also began to collect scripts from the outside. It is impossible for Liang Kun to write all by himself. He is open, not with three heads and six arms. He can''t handle too many things.
This time back, Liang Kun can write a script. There is no more time. He saw the new task released by the public and decided to change his mind and not write Youth Drama in the next play.
Liang Kun thought for a moment and said with a smile: "young actors always play the leading role in urban dramas, and the audience may also be aesthetic fatigue. In the next play, I want to write older people as the protagonists. Both men and women are older. A play about marriage is not like the disappeared lover. It''s not so cruel."
Li Jiasheng, who had been silent, raised his head and looked at Liang Kun with hope in his eyes.
Liang Kun smiled at him. "Brother Sheng, I''m talking about you. I''m going to let you play the leading role in the new script. I have an idea. I''ll write the script recently. I''m sure you''ll like it."
Li Jiasheng felt like a dream and said excitedly, "no matter what kind of role it is, I will try my best to play it well."
"I believe you can play well. For the scripts I wrote before, you just lack performance opportunities, but the supporting actors are more brilliant," Liang Kun encouraged.
Everyone was very surprised and congratulated Li Jiasheng. They all have confidence in the script written by Liang Kun, who plays who is hot.
Li Jiasheng''s red task Liang Kun has taken over for a long time. Up to now, he has only completed 10%, which is the lowest degree of completion. Li Jiasheng hopes to prove himself in the mainland, but like in Xiangjiang TVB, he has always been a supporting actor.
He worked hard and practiced Mandarin fluently, but he never had a chance to show his acting skills. He is 39 years old this year. If he doesn''t play the leading role, he won''t have a chance.
Andy Lau has long said that he wants Li Jiasheng to play the leading role, and Liang Kun has never forgotten him. When he came to the mainland, Li Keqin introduced him. They said they would cover him.
Liang Kun always said to do it. And today, he found that Li Jiasheng had sent another red task to play the leading role. This task is much easier than helping him become popular in China. He lowered his standards and just wanted to star in a play to prove his acting skills.
The difficulty of the red task mainly depends on the desire of the publisher. Sometimes it is very simple. When Liang Kun participated in the folk music competition and won the top three, he could complete a red task. He lent 200000 yuan to Su Yan for emergency, which is also a red task.
Li Jiasheng''s expectations for his career have become lower, which does not conflict with the task of becoming popular in China. Now it''s very cost-effective for Liang Kun to praise him.
Liang Kun only thought for a while and then had a plan. The hero of a TV play is older and can be popular. His friends have to take a break this time. The name of the play is "let''s get married".
Andy Lau asked, "what is the general content of your script? Can you say it?"
Liang Kun smiled: "No problem. Carambola is the lobby manager of a four-star hotel. At the age of 32, she is still single because she was hurt in her relationship. The 36 year old is indeed a divorce registration clerk in the marriage registration office. The shadow of his parents'' marriage makes him a typical marriage phobic. With the help of his friends, taozihe met reluctantly. Unexpectedly, they are both right They have a good feeling for each other. After a period of blind tossing, finally a lover gets married... "
This is a love and family play. Liang Kun had a sense of substitution when watching it in his previous life, because he is a marriage phobic. Now he is still a marriage phobic and has never thought of getting married. He doesn''t dare to think about it.
His girlfriend is very good, the problem is... All very good.
Li Jiasheng looks tender. It''s really no problem to play the 36 year old. The hostess has to find an older golden leftover woman to play and audition. Yingyi entertainment has no actresses of this age, so it can only be cheaper for outsiders.
The original version was starred by Huang Haibo and Gao Yuanyuan. After the premiere of a set of CCTV in 2013, it won the championship of ratings in the whole year. Mango satellite TV premiered in the same period, and its ratings also won the fourth place in the whole year.
Li Jiasheng has acting skills and good image. Liang Kun believes that he will not disappoint
