When Zhao Yan ran to see the Great Wall, Yu Dongzheng looked at the man sitting in front of him with a frown.
The man was of average appearance, with a medium build, a slightly hooked nose, and very light eyebrows. He was sitting there with a smile on his face, but you couldn't tell how sincere he was.
But it was this man who later filmed "Toward a Republic" and "Ming Dynasty 1566".
Before meeting Zhang Li, Yu Dong was deeply impressed by the name, but had little impression of the person it corresponded to, and he never expected that Zhang Li would be such a thick-skinned person.
Zhang Li came to Yu Dong on his own initiative. He and Zhang Yimou were classmates, so he told Zhang Yimou that he wanted to meet Yu Dong, but Zhang Yimou introduced him to Yu Dong out of favour.
When Yu Dong heard Zhang Yimou say that Zhang Li wanted to see him, he agreed directly without hesitation. However, what he didn't expect was that Zhang Li was a very glib person, which was completely different from Zhang Yimou's style.
When Zhang Li came up, he first praised Yu Dong to the sky, and then praised himself both subtly and subtly. Everything he said floated in the sky, and a few words fell to the ground.
Yu Dong coughed lightly: "Teacher Zhang, do you have any specific reason for coming to me this time?"
Hearing Yu Dong's words, the smile on Zhang Li's face became even brighter, this time with a bit of sincerity, "Since Teacher Yu asked this, I won't beat around the bush. It's like this. I heard that deep space will be launched this year."
Do twenty TV series. I just thought, is there anything I can do to help Deep Space Company?"
Yu Dong was stunned. He never expected that Zhang Li would directly ask him for a film. This was the first time the two of them had met.
Isn’t it a bit abrupt?
If it weren't for the fact that Zhang Li later filmed several high-quality TV series, Yu Dong might have served tea to the guests.
Taking a breath secretly, Yu Dong smiled and said: "Teacher Zhang, you may want to ask Yili and the others about this matter. Although I am the one who said it, the specific operation depends on them."
Zhang Li smiled and said: "Actually, I came here this time because Lao Mouzi always mentioned Teacher Yu to me, saying that Teacher Yu is good at discovering talents and is a well-known talent."
His words seemed to be praising Yu Dong as a bole, but in fact he was hinting to Yu Dong that he was a thousand-mile horse.
They say that it’s not business that gets on the pole, but when Dong saw Zhang Li’s eagerness, he aroused some curiosity: “Teacher Zhang, as far as I know, you haven’t filmed a TV series before, right? Why do you suddenly think of doing it now?
Filming a TV series?"
There are many people like Zhang Li and others who have become directors, but Zhang Li is obviously not as successful in the film industry as Zhang Yimou and others. He has made several movies before and his performance was average. Instead, he won a few awards for his professional photography.
"In fact, in my eyes, whether it is a movie or a TV series, as long as it is a good story, it is the same. Mr. Yu, I have studied the scripts of the movies and TV series you participated in. The quality is very high, and the themes are varied, which is amazing.
.When I watched "Don't Talk to Strangers", I didn't even know that the script was written by you, Teacher Yu, so I already..."
When it comes to professional matters, Zhang Li becomes a little different, less slick, more sincere, and more elegant. He starts dancing, and his words and movements are full of enthusiasm for film and television drama creation.
Only now did Yu Dong see a hint of a great director in Zhang Li, and his impression of him became much better.
From Zhang Li, we can see that people have two sides, and these two sides of Zhang Li are very obvious.
Looking at Zhang Li talking eloquently, Yu Dong thought, Zhang Li can cooperate, but cannot be a friend.
However, as long as we can cooperate.
"Let me try." Yu Dong suddenly said.
Zhang Li, who was chatting about "Don't Talk to Strangers", suddenly stopped and looked at Yu Dong in surprise: "Teacher Yu, what did you say?"
Yu Dong smiled and said, "I said, I'll give it a try and see if I can write a script that suits you."
After confirming Yu Dong's words, Zhang Li said happily: "Thank you, thank you, Lao Mouzi is indeed right. Teacher Yu, you are really a bole."
…
As soon as Zhang Li left, Yu Hua entered Yu Dong's office.
"Who was that just now? It looked quite unfamiliar."
Yu Dong picked up the tea cup and took a sip of water, and said: "A thousand-mile horse."
Yu Hua smiled and said: "The evaluation is quite high. What does he do?"
"Director, I'm from Lao Mouzi's class."
Yu Hua stared at Yu Dong's face carefully and said curiously: "No, since you are a thousand-mile horse, why don't we feel that you are not very happy?"
Yu Dong gritted his teeth and said, "I'm very happy. What do you want from me?"
Yu Hua shrugged and said with a smile: "It's okay. I came here to play with you when I was bored. Also, the network in your office is better, I like it very much."
The corner of Yu Dong's mouth twitched. If hitting someone was not illegal, his fist would already be on Yu Hua's face.
…
Yu Dong started preparing to write the relevant information for "Toward a Republic" the next day. He remembered the plot, but in order to write the script well, he decided to do the preliminary preparations well.
And he may not write a story exactly the same as "Toward a Republic", he may write something different.
Different people see history in different ways, let alone historical dramas.
"Towards a Republic" is very good, but it is not completely in line with Yu Dong's ideas. There are some places in the middle where he definitely needs to make some changes.
…
Preparations are being made, and the script has not been written yet. Yu Dong and the others have already arrived at Treasure Island.
They arrived on the afternoon of the 18th. They rested in the hotel for a while and then went shopping in the evening.
Since the 1960s, Baodao has begun to develop rapidly. In the past few years, the province's GDP has reached more than 40% of that of the mainland. The gap between the economic levels of the two sides is very large.
You don’t need to study in depth, just look at the people on the road and you can see the gap.
Compared to the mainland, the people here are indeed much more fashionable, and the local night market is naturally much better than that in Jinling.
Although Asia just experienced the financial crisis last year, Baodao was not affected much and is still thriving overall. The people here are full of confidence and very enthusiastic.
Yu Dong looked at the bustling night market and couldn't help but sigh. In the past few years, Baodao has changed from top to bottom, from the inside out, and finally turned into a different look.
Many people attribute cross-strait issues to the economy, but in fact, after the mainland's economy improved, the cross-strait issues did not get better, but became more serious. And the problem also appeared at this time in the 1990s, when Baodao began to culturally
Deviation, as time goes by, the impact of this culture war has gradually become more prominent.
