Chapter 37 36. It’s a pity it’s not you (Happy New Year!)

The first day of filming passed unnoticed.

Perhaps because he didn't want to put too much pressure on the actors right from the start, Li Dawei announced a break at around 8pm.

Almost as soon as the crew finished work, Li Dawei couldn't wait to return to the hotel room with the content of the day's filming.

This time, "The Golden Age" was led by Huaxia TV, with a total investment of more than 25 million yuan. It was also a big challenge and opportunity for Li Dawei.

If he wins, he will be successful.

If he loses, he will be defeated.

And more importantly, he has to fight for his mother Liu Guoquan.

Li Dawei knew very well that many people in the crew were now gossiping that he was a relative. Of course, in fact, he was able to become the director of this TV series with the help of his mother.

But this does not hinder Li Dawei's desire and efforts for the success of this TV series, because he understands that this is an era where the winner is king. As long as he can make this drama well, those rumors will naturally disappear, and people will only say that Li Dawei has outstanding abilities.

Thinking of this, Li Dawei's inner desire for success becomes stronger and stronger. In the final analysis, he is an ambitious director who is unwilling to live under the shadow of his mother's big name all his life. He wants to be independent and wants to shine his own brilliance.

Taking out the videotape and putting it into the device, Li Dawei sat on the sofa with the remote control in his hand, ready to review today's shooting content again, but before the image came out, his door was knocked.

"Who?" Li Dawei asked with a frown.

"David, it's me." A woman's voice came from outside the door, but when Li Dawei heard it, his face, which was originally a little dissatisfied, instantly became helpless.

"Mom, why are you here so late." Opening the door, it was Li Dawei's mother Liu Guoquan standing outside the door.

"Why did I come? I'm worried about you." Liu Guoquan handed the thermos in his hand to his son, and then gave him a big eye roll.

After welcoming his mother into the house, Li Dawei couldn't wait to open the thermos. Almost as soon as the lid was opened, a strong aroma entered his nostrils.

"My favorite stewed chicken." Li Dawei exclaimed in surprise.

"Eat it while it's hot." Liu Guoquan handed the prepared spoon and chopsticks to his son, and looked around the room. Seeing that it was quite tidy, he nodded with satisfaction.

Li Dawei on the side was chewing the stewed chicken with his arms, while Liu Guoquan quickly focused his attention on the paused film on the TV.

"What is the content of today's shooting?" Liu Guoquan pointed at the TV and asked.

"Yeah, mom, you can help me watch it." Li Dawei nodded and asked his mother for help.

Although Li Dawei has been in the industry for seven or eight years, he is still a small matter compared to his experienced mother. It is obviously much better to have his mother to help him judge than to guess blindly by himself. Li Dawei has done the same thing in the past two TV series.

Liu Guoquan was obviously prepared for this. He took the remote control and started watching without saying a word.

There was a lot of content shot in this day. Without editing, it can be said that the content is very large. Even though Li Dawei has been fast-forwarding some shots that have been eliminated in his mind, the mother and daughter sat together and watched for an hour before they finished watching half of it.

And the key is that although these scenes will be made into interesting TV series in the future, they are not even semi-finished products now. The plot is intermittent, and some are repeated many times, which is very exhausting. Look, after only watching for an hour, the elderly Liu Guoquan has already started yawning.

"Yawn..."

"Yawn..."

Seemingly infected by his mother's constant yawning, when Liu Guoquan opened his mouth to yawn again, Li Dawei also yawned unconsciously. The two looked at each other and laughed immediately.

"Okay, watch one more shot, and then I will help you analyze it. The rest of the shots will be watched tomorrow." After laughing, Liu Guoquan suggested, and the tired Li Dawei agreed.

Pressing the play button, the two of them cheered up at the same time and watched it seriously.

Ten seconds later, Liu Guoquan's eyes suddenly lit up, and for the first time he couldn't help but point his finger at the TV and asked, "What's the name of the kid who plays Liu Chunjiang?"

"Nie Wei." Li Dawei answered immediately.

"What a pity, what a pity." After hearing Li Dawei's answer, Liu Guoquan nodded, staring at the TV, and suddenly sighed after a while, saying "what a pity" twice.

"It's a good performance, why is it a pity?" Hearing his mother's sigh, Li Dawei asked puzzledly.

You know, the biggest surprise for him today is Nie Wei.

The acting skills of this big boy today really surprised him. He originally thought that Nie Wei would be one of the two major tumors in the crew, but he unexpectedly became an unexpected bright spot.

Li Dawei even felt that Nie Wei's performance today was better than Cheng Kun's. Why did his mother say "it's a pity"?

"I regret that I didn't see his performance earlier, otherwise I would suggest that you let him take the lead." Liu Guoquan quickly gave the answer.

But this sentence scared Li Dawei.

"Mom, he is a student and has never filmed a play."

"So what? Fame is just a superficial thing after all. The audience will not watch the TV series itself. With this boy's acting skills, let alone being the leading actor in a TV series, he can even be the leading actor in a movie. This is talent. Such a child is born to act." Liu Guoquan glared and retorted loudly, obviously dissatisfied with his son's "snobbish" attitude.

"Yes, Mom, you are right, but now the filming has started and it can't be changed."

"That's why I said it's a pity, what a good child." Liu Guoquan looked at Nie Wei, who was acting very naturally on TV, with regret in his eyes.

At this time, Nie Wei didn't know that he had already been named in the heart of a great screenwriter, because he spent his time painting during the day, and suddenly had an idea in his mind after returning to the hotel.

You have to know that a star cannot be popular only in his own country. If you want to be popular, you have to be popular abroad, that's what you really want to be.

Hong Kong, Taiwan and Southeast Asia are not so bad, and they are roughly the same as Chinese entertainment culture, and the acceptance is very high.

But the Japanese and Korean entertainment circles are not easy to deal with, especially these two circles are still somewhat exclusive. Looking at the development of Chinese entertainment in the past few decades, only a few stars can become popular in these two circles, and they are not even more than ten.

Since Nie Wei wants to be a superstar, he obviously can't get around these two hurdles.

Let's put the Korean entertainment circle aside for now, but because of today's painting, Nie Wei suddenly thought of a good opportunity to enter the RB entertainment circle, because there is another profession in RB whose fame and reputation are no less than those movie and TV stars, and the name of that profession is called cartoonist!
