Chinese Entertainment Intelligence King

Chapter 19 Future Film and Television Information and Wrap-up Party

After reading the information, Yan Li bowed to Xiang again. This time, his ancestors were very kind to him. Next time, if conditions allowed, he would offer some meat and wine.

Afterwards, Yan Li retrieved all the monthly intelligence he had obtained previously and roughly organized and summarized it.

Hold the bowl and watch the pot, take one step and plan three steps!

So every month, Yan Li would combine past intelligence with new intelligence to think about his future development plans.

Yan Li has had access to the intelligence system for about half a year. Since the amount of intelligence that appears each month is random and varies, the total amount now is only a little over thirty.

Among them, about 2/3 is confirmed or suspected future information, which is still a considerable proportion.

However, whether it is useful or not depends on the specific situation and how Yan Li is used.

According to Yan Li's statistics, the future information time range of monthly intelligence is approximately 1 to 5 years.

Whether the system will be upgraded later, or whether the time limit of future information in the [Annual Intelligence] he speculated will be extended, are all unknowns now, and Yan Li dare not guarantee it.

However, for now, Yan Li is already very satisfied with the information he can get about the next five years.

Among these future intelligence, a lot of it involves the future entertainment industry and film and television, which is probably related to Yan Li’s career.

Yan Li attaches great importance to this information. After all, who knows which one of them can make him famous.

At present, in addition to the "Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties" in which Yan Li is in, and the "Bright Sword" and "Investiture of the Gods: Fengming Qishan" that he just got, he also has some information about future film and television.

1. Jin Yong's drama "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" produced by Zhang Jizhong

2. The TV series "Conquer" directed by Gao Qunshu

3. TV series "Soldier Assault" starring Wang Baoqiang

4. The film "Apple" directed by Li Yu

According to intelligence, these films and TV series have achieved good results or influence. If Yan Li can participate in them, it will be of great benefit to him.

However, despite Yan Li's efforts, the only work that truly achieved his goal was "Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties", and there was little progress in other works.

There's no way. The movie "Apple" was released in 2007, and "Soldier Assault" was a 2006 drama. I don't know whether the scripts for either of them have been written yet.

Not to mention the script, it is difficult to find the parties involved in the intelligence.

Li Yu, the director of "Apple", is doing well. He has already directed two films and won awards overseas. He is quite famous in the circle.

Yan Li asked around for Wang Baoqiang, who played in "Soldier Assault", even at the Central Academy of Drama next door, but he didn't come across an actor with this name.

Yan Li suspected that this guy might be hiding in some corner, or he might not have entered the industry yet.

As for the drama "Conquer", Yan Li has been involved in it.

But I heard that the crew was short of funds and the early preparations were not going smoothly. There were even rumors more than once that the project was going to fail. Yan Li was not sure whether it was because of him that some changes in the crew occurred.

The reason for "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" is that the threshold is too high.

After all, it is a Jin Yong drama, and its reputation is already there. Zhang Jizhong also filmed the popular "Swordsman" before, so this drama has attracted more attention.

As soon as the project was launched at the beginning of the year, the media reported it extensively. The resumes of actors submitted to the crew piled up like a mountain, and agents from major companies took turns to get involved. It was difficult for Yan Li, a newcomer working alone, to snatch some of the talent from the crowd.

So at that time, Yan Li just politely submitted a resume and then concentrated on pursuing Wang Decai.

Now that "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils" is about to start filming, it is estimated that the important roles have been confirmed.

Yan Li felt that he had to work harder on "Conquer" or find a breakthrough from the group of directors and producers introduced by Lao Wang.

In addition, after returning to the capital, I should also learn some information related to making money and connections, and make arrangements if necessary.

The acting profession is too random and unstable. If possible, it is more stable to walk on two legs...

----

Since receiving the monthly intelligence at the beginning of the month, Yan Li's life has entered the fast lane.

Every day he filmed, trained in horseback riding, practiced martial arts, made connections, and occasionally had a small gathering with Qin Lan. Soon, it was mid-July, and the countdown to Yan Li's departure from the crew of "Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties" had begun.

It took just over a month from joining the crew to wrapping up, which was quite fast.

But it's normal. Yuwen Chengdu was originally a supporting role, and a supporting role who didn't have much interaction with the main characters. He didn't have any role in the later Li Tang conquest of the world and the fight for the throne, so his role was limited.

Not to mention, most directors from Hong Kong like Hu Mingkai have a more "bold" and "inconsistent" filming style.

The five words "slow work, fine work" are simply an "insult" to them.

Although he did not stay in the crew of "Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties" for a long time, Yan Li was very popular because of his good personality and the system cheats.

Assistant director Wang Decai, makeup artist Wang Xiu, leading actors Nie Yuan and Tong Lei, several special supporting actors, and team leader Lao Xu and others took turns arranging a drinking party to see him off.

This is quite rare!

People come and go on the crew, and everyone is used to seeing them break up and get back together. Unless they are a fixed team, once the crew disbands, everyone goes back to their own homes, and it's hard to say when they will meet again for collaboration.

Therefore, most actors or staff members of the crew regard each other as short-term passers-by. Unless the relationship is close enough, there is really no need to spend money on a farewell dinner.

Yan Li couldn't refuse as he had to film every day and didn't have time to attend each one, so he simply divided them into several groups.

Lao Wang is a benefactor, and he is counting on others for help, so we must have a private gathering.

Wang Xiu, Lao Xu and the others are all staff members, and those few special supporting actors can also get together to liven things up.

For leading actors like Tong Lei and Nie Yuan, a separate show will have to be held.

It’s not that Yan Li treats them differently, it’s true that they each have their own circles. Plus, Nie Yuan has a bit of an arrogant personality, so if they are forced to stay together, everyone will feel uncomfortable, so it’s better for them to gather separately.

That day, the crew finished work early, so Nie Yuan asked Yan Li to have dinner together. In addition to Tong Lei who had been invited before, there were also Zheng Guolin and Kou Zhanwen.

Zheng Guolin played Li Shimin in "Heroes of Sui and Tang Dynasties". He had a good relationship with Nie Yuan and came to eat with her.

Kou Zhanwen is the actor who played Yuchi Gong. Yan Li had gotten close to him when he first came to the crew, and they had dealt with each other a few times later. They had a pretty good relationship. When Yan Li met him and asked him about it when he was finishing work today, he came over to show his support.

The restaurant was arranged by Nie Yuan, which was of a fairly high standard, and he also paid for the meal.

Tong Lei wanted to divide it equally, after all, they had agreed to see Yan Li off together, but was rejected by the somewhat chauvinistic Nie Yuan.

"How can you let your girl spend money when you go out to play?"

Yan Li ignored their lawsuit. Nie Yuan paid for the meal, and Yan Li arranged two singing shows.

The filming was about to be completed, and the crew paid him the remaining salary. Yan Li was not a stingy person. Since he had money, he could not refuse the request when his friends invited him to dinner to see him off.

There are quite a lot of karaoke bars and KTVs in Hengdian, and the environment is mixed, making it difficult to distinguish the good from the bad.

But this is not a problem for Yan Li, nicknamed "Living Radar".

When he went out with Wang Decai to make connections, he used the system to find two good KTVs.

One of them is among the best in Hengdian in terms of comprehensive conditions such as environment, price, and safety.

The other one, the girl is pretty, sensible and has a good figure.

Normally, Yan Li prefers the second one, but since there is a girl here today, he can only go to the first one.

After opening the private room, Yan Li was inviting Kou Zhanwen and the others to order songs. Nie Yuan went out to answer a phone call, and came back to shout to Yan Li over the music.

"I hope you don't mind the two new friends."

"Come on, it's more lively with more people."

Yan Li didn't care, it was just the money for a few bottles of wine. Nie Yuan nodded and brought two girls in soon. Yan Li was happy when he saw them.

Isn’t this the new version of Xiaoyanzi? !
