Chapter 289, Current Situation of Domestic Entertainment Film Market
However.
It's okay, just this time, it's okay.
Liu Qianqian still agreed . After all, this should be the last time.
My own willfulness. On the other side. When the preparations for "The Crucible" were being made.
However, there was another unexpected person who came to visit Li Yun.
Such an unexpected person that Li Yun had never expected.
"Nice to meet you ," Li Yuxuan said as he looked at Li Yun in front of him and smiled, "My name is Li Yuxuan. If we consider the seniority, I am yours. My uncle can call you his nephew, right?"
"Well, how should I put it?"
Li Yun looked at the strange middle-aged man in front of him who looked very imposing. He did look somewhat similar to himself in terms of physical appearance.
If you say they are not related, no one will believe it.
"Please take a seat. My humble abode is simple and cannot compare to your Li family in the capital. I don't have any good tea to offer you."
Li Yun's eyes were extremely calm, so calm that Li Yuxuan felt a sense of cautious calmness.
Even though he was meeting the relatives who abandoned him as a child, he was able to show such emotional stability.
His character. Li Yuxuan thought of his other nephew. If possible, he really didn't want to admit that the other one was his nephew. What a bastard. Li Yuxuan had done a lot of things like cleaning up after others, but before, in order to serve as a role model of his brother, he also helped Li Yichun clean up after others.
Now it's okay, I don't have to clean his butt anymore.
"How come, as an uncle visiting your nephew, you can't even have a sip of good tea?" Li Yuxuan teased.
"I ruined his role model of the times." Li Yun shrugged: "How can there be such a rebellious nephew."
"The one who ruined the role model of his era was that kid Li Yichun, what does it have to do with you?"
Li Yuxuan looked at Li Yun's expression, it was as if they were in tacit agreement.
When it was exposed at that time, the irony was overwhelming.
Li Yuxuan certainly knew that when his brother's illegitimate child was exposed, the selection was over. His brother had no chance . And Li Yichun's exposure was more like saying that he was not worthy.
However, Li Yun still poured Li Yuxuan some tea from home.
"Good tea, you said you didn't have good tea at home." Li Yichun also praised Li Yun's tea. Li Yun's mouth twitched.
"Ten yuan a pound."
To Li Yun, tea is more like a refreshing drink. Whether it tastes good or not, if it can refresh you, then it is good tea. There is no need for so many strange requirements for individuals.
At this time, Li Yuxuan smiled slightly.
“Maybe it’s because you made it yourself, so I think it tastes good.”
Li Yun was silent.
Subconsciously, I wondered if this "uncle" had any bad intentions towards me.
The vigilance came out immediately. Li Yun was also a little amused by his own reaction. What kind of reaction was this? "Do you think that my brother doesn't deserve to be the role model of this era?" At this time, Li Yuxuan suddenly said.
"What do you think, uncle?" Li Yun just called him uncle. "I think?" Li Yuxuan said, "Of course he is not worthy. In fact, he is not as noble as outsiders think. He was even with my sister-in-law because of her family's background in the circle. Her family did help a lot in the film resources of the 'strong alliance'."
"Oh, and then?"
"Then? From the beginning, my brother has been a rather selfish and utilitarian person. But it is clear that although he is not a role model of the times this time, it does not mean that he will not be next time."
Li Yun was stunned.
"I admire him. He is still a role model of the times."
"Hmm, you didn't expect that, did you?" Li Yuxuan smiled slightly and said, "But it's not as dirty a deal as you think. Although our Li family is quite powerful, we can't do everything. My brother is a role model of the times because he is needed. Don't forget, he is also a very capable director."
He is a talented mainstream director who can also make box office hits, and can be said to have taken into account both commercial and mainstream themes.
It can be said that he is quite powerful.
Li Yun came to his senses all of a sudden. How could he not have thought of it ? He was needed because of his talent. No matter what his personal morality was, his talent was unquestionable. Domestic entertainment needed a director who could shoot something that the general public liked and loved, and who also had his own thoughts and will. Indeed, if this part was missing, the thoughts that young people would be exposed to in entertainment works in the future would mostly be Western thoughts such as "capital", "dishonesty", and "the bigger the responsibility, the bigger the pot". Therefore, there must be a Li Modu.
A talented role model.
As the spokesperson of the times, he is the one who leads the charge.
Mr. Cai is right.
The fire can never be extinguished at any time.
After all, even in peacetime, there are secret wars.
"Oh so what do you want to say?"
"What I want to say is that some things should be in line with the times. As for personal matters, just let it go." Li Yuxuan finished the tea in the cup, then stood up and said, "The tea is good. I hope I can drink more expensive tea next time."
"By the way, this is my phone number. If you have any trouble, you can call this number."
"Go slowly," Li Yun paused and said, "If you want to drink good tea, bring it yourself next time."
"Hey, sure."
At this time, Li Yun looked at Li Yuxuan who was gradually walking away, feeling a little puzzled.
At this time, should I smoke a cigarette to show the vicissitudes of life?
But I quit.
Liu Qianqian returned to the apartment over there.
But he found that Liu Lili was also there, and her expression looked very gloomy.
"You've grown up, become more powerful, and learned to deceive me. You're so good, Liu Qianqian. Which wild boy taught you that?"
"Mom, what did I lie to you about!"
"You said you would no longer date that Li Yun." Liu Lili said with a gloomy look in her eyes, "But you still did it."
"Woo"
At this time, Liu Qianqian was speechless. "Mom, listen to me."
"I won't listen to your explanation. You've deceived me. I'm going to settle the score with him now!"
"mom!"
"Shut up." Liu Lili looked at Liu Qianqian and said, "Come with me to Hollywood tomorrow, right now."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
"I turned down all the film offers and commercials here and went to Hollywood. That's where you should go."
"Mom, I'm not going! I've already taken on the movie myself."
Liu Qianqian bit her lip and told Liu Lili about "The Crucible". Liu Lili laughed out of anger.
"It's that wild boy Li Yun again, and you told me you have nothing to do with him. You, you are so confused that you go and shoot this kind of rubbish with him. What's the point?"
"Then what's the point of me going to Hollywood?"
"Go to Hollywood, you can be a Chinese heroine! You can have resources that others can't even dream of! You can be exposed to a free, democratic, noble world! Isn't it good that you don't have to waste your time here?"
You don't understand my good intentions at all. Liu Xixi doesn't understand what cooking, freedom, and nobility are, but if she were the old her, she would have obediently followed her mother to Hollywood.
Because she is my mother, she is my relative. So if she wants to do something, then I should do it myself.
This, of course.
But at this time.
However, Liu Qianqian had a different idea.
"Mom, you know, I'm still confused." Liu Qianqian murmured, "In fact, I feel like I haven't found my true self yet."
Liu Xixi also wanted to know what her true self was like. In fact, she had been thinking about this question all along.
The true self is the real self.
She was still confused about what it was like and what the purpose of acting was. But she knew that working with Brother Li made her very happy and made her forget that she was "Liu Tianxian". She also made her forget the "goddess" halo that was on her head.
Liu Qianqian sometimes felt that she was being pretentious because she wanted to pick the things that others were flocking to.
At least, temporarily.
I'm afraid that if I go to Hollywood, I should carry on the title of "Goddess" to the end. My mother mentioned this when she was selecting scripts.
My future path will be that of a 'fairy'.
Before her debut, Liu Qianqian already knew her future, which was a smooth road planned for her.
She is also grateful for the future her mother has arranged for her.
Because of this, she doesn't have the worries that ordinary people have.
This gratitude is beyond words.
But... she still wanted to rebel once.
After all, I have never been rebellious since I was a child.
All are good girls of their mothers A good girl without self. "Mom, I want to at least, at least this time, let me choose for myself." Liu Qianqian said softly: "From childhood to adulthood, you have always chosen for me"
"I want to do it myself this time."
"Your choice is to choose garbage, not a movie that Hollywood invested hundreds of millions of dollars in."
Liu Lili said disdainfully.
"I won't say anything else, but you can do math, right? Do you know the current box office trend? The box office of mainland and Hong Kong movies has long been eroded beyond recognition. It can be said that 70% of the box office has been taken up. In this context, your persistence is useless. One is a supermarket facing the people of the world, and the other is a small place with only one acre of land."
"Even, you chose a small-time director."
For Liu Lili, Li Yun is not even considered a "director". Being a good actor does not mean that you can film well.
He wrote, directed and acted in the film himself.
If Liu Qianqian had acted in this role, it would have been a stain on her resume, a blotch on the white canvas.
Very ugly, really ugly . "You should start to take care of your reputation now."
"I know"
Liu Qianqian lowered her head and said, "I know. Mom, give me a chance. After I finish filming The Crucible, if it's really as bad as you say, I will go abroad with you."
"But now, I want to make a choice for myself."
