Middle age: leisurely life in the entertainment industry

Chapter 551: I thought it was a comedy at first, but it turned out to be a tragedy in the end



It took Yu Dongqing a week to finally finish the script. Of course, the first reader was his daughter-in-law Meimei.

Meimei sat at the computer and watched carefully, and finally burst into tears.

"I thought it was a comedy at first, but in the end it turned out to be a tragedy. Husband, you wrote it so well." Meimei snuggled next to Yu Dongqing: "I wanted to film it after watching it."

"Okay, I'll give this to you to take a picture of, and I'll write it again for Dongsheng." Yu Dongqing said.

"Forget it, since what you wrote for Wang Dongsheng is still for others, and since I had Lele, I don't really like reading these heart-wrenching stories. It's better to be romantic and poetic!" Ming Mo said.

"Okay, when you want to take pictures, I will write you a poetic one." Yu Dongqing looked at his wife with a doting look on his face.

"Okay, keep your word!" Meili held out her little finger like a child. "Let's pull the hook!"

"Hang yourself with a hook, it won't change for a hundred years, whoever cheats is a puppy!"

Meili was acting coquettishly, and when she looked back, she suddenly found her son at the door of the study, looking at her curiously.

"Mom, Dad, Aunt Xiaxia asked you to go to dinner." Lele said.

Meili suddenly felt a little embarrassed.

How can I act like a baby to my husband in front of my son?

He quickly took his son's little hand and asked, "Let's go, Lele, have you washed your hands?"

"Mom, wash it"

"Lele is so good."

Watching his wife and son leave, Yu Dongqing smiled and sent the script to Wang Dongsheng via email.

At this time, Wang Dongsheng was eating.

He still lives in a rental house near Wangjing.

The house is not bad, with two bedrooms and one living room, nearly 70 square meters, but the rent is also expensive, up to 10,000 yuan per month!

In order to take care of her daughter, Chen Li temporarily gave up her job and became a housewife. The burden of the family's life fell entirely on Wang Dongsheng alone.

What can I do?

It seems like there is nothing else he can do but make movies.

At this moment, there was a message on his phone to receive an incoming email. He turned on his phone while eating.

It's from Yu Dongqing!

It’s actually a script!

Wang Dongsheng quickly opened it and looked carefully.

"Dongsheng, eat quickly, the rice is already cold." After some time, his wife's words woke Wang Dongsheng from the script.

"Don't worry about me, you go wash the dishes." Wang Dongsheng said without raising his head.

"What are you looking at, so intently?"

"Brother Yu sent me the script." Wang Dongsheng raised his head and looked at his wife with excitement on his face.

“It’s so well written!”

"Let me take a look." Chen Li became curious. She sat next to Wang Dongsheng and the couple looked carefully.

A long time.

Chen Li sighed after reading: "No wonder people in the industry say that Yu Dongqing not only sings well, shoots movies well, but also writes first-class scripts. If this script is really shot, it will definitely be a good harvest both in terms of reputation and box office!"

"Yeah. I really didn't expect that realistic works could be written like this. Hey, wife, how about you playing the role of Liu Sihui in the play?"

Chen Li was originally an actor, but because she married Wang Dongsheng, she temporarily gave up her acting career. Now when she heard her husband say this, her heart skipped a beat.

"Do you think I can act well? According to the script, this role is quite complicated." Chen Li was a little unsure.

"If you can play Feng Yanli in "Anyang Baby" well, how can you not play Liu Sihui well?" Wang Dongsheng asked: "Don't forget, you won the Best Actress Award at the Leval International Film Festival in Belgium for this movie."

"Anyang Baby" is Wang Dongsheng's proud work, and it is also Chen Li's highlight moment.

This film has won awards at many film festivals such as the Vancouver International Film Festival and the Warsaw International Film Festival, and is also the love work of the two.

Unfortunately, due to various reasons, this movie cannot be released in China, and Wang Dongsheng himself was banned from making movies for three years.

Now I hear my husband encouraging me: "Okay, I'll play Liu Sihui."

"I'll call Brother Yu immediately to make this movie and want to have a detailed chat with him about the script." Wang Dongsheng said excitedly.

"Don't worry, show it to Brother Li Wan and try to get him to be your producer." Chen Li reminded.

"Yes! I have to rely on him to attract investment." Wang Dongsheng said with a smile.

"Don't worry, husband, this movie is definitely easy to find investment." Chen Li smiled tenderly: "It's not like the movie "Anyang Baby" you made."

Wang Dongsheng immediately forwarded the script to Li Wan and expressed his opinion, hoping that he would become the producer.

Li Wan also responded quickly: "Dongsheng, this script written by Yu Dongqing is tailor-made for you! Let's have a talk with him."

The conversation took place in Yu Dongqing's teahouse.

Yu Dongqing was not surprised that the two came together.

The two were good friends when they were young and knew each other earlier than Yu Dongqing.

Naturally, we chatted while drinking tea.

"Brother Yu, I decided to film this script, and Brother Li agreed to be the producer." Wang Dongsheng said.

Yu Dongqing glanced at Li Wan: "Aren't you the producer of "The Wandering Earth 2"?"

"I've been busy with this recently." Li Wan replied: "As for "I'm Not the God of Medicine," I'm also the producer. Once it's finished, the box office will be high. I don't worry about anyone else. .”

What a workaholic.

Yu Dongqing shook his head.

"Brother Yu, do you have any good opinions or suggestions about filming this script?" Wang Dongsheng asked humbly.

Originally, Yu Dongqing wrote the script and gave it to other directors to shoot, and rarely expressed his own opinions. However, in "I'm Not the God of Medicine", Yu Dongqing is ready to say a few more words.

"First of all, although this script is essentially a tragedy, it is unfolded in the form of a comedy. This aspect was so dull that the audience did not like to watch it."

"The other thing is the use of the lens and the color of the film." Yu Dongqing told Wang Dongsheng in detail about the unique places in Wen Muye's shooting in that time and space.

The other party nodded frequently.

"Brother Yu, I will think carefully about what you said." Wang Dongsheng finally said.

After seeing Yu Dongqing and Wang Dongsheng finish talking about the plot, Li Wan interjected from the side.

"Holly, do you want to invest in this movie? How much are you prepared to invest?"

Yu Dongqing pondered for a moment after hearing this: "I estimate that the investment in this film will not exceed 100 million, so my studio will cover it."

Wang Dongsheng was surprised and happy after hearing this.

The director's most troublesome investment problem was solved so easily!

Unexpectedly, Li Wanque disagreed.

"How can that be done? How can I let you do it all by yourself? You and I, one person and half!"

"Are you so optimistic about this movie?" Yu Dongqing asked helplessly.

"Hehe. Follow you. I have a habit. As long as you invest, I will follow you!"

In the end, he had to decide that after Li Wan made the budget, the required investment would be half per person.

Wang Dongsheng finally rushed away happily.

Beforehand, I promised Yu Dongqing that I would do my best to take a good picture, and I would not come to see you if the picture was not good.

Yu Dongqing has nothing to worry about, because he believes that Wang Dongsheng has the strength.
