Chapter 244 Meeting with the director

The early morning sunlight filtered in through the large floor-to-ceiling windows. On the luxurious bed in the middle, the quilt was bulging, and something seemed to be moving underneath.

After a while, a hand stretched out from the bed, and then four legs came out. How could a person have four legs, so they were two people.

Sure enough, the quilt was kicked away, and laughter could be heard.

"Oh, stop scratching, it's so itchy... Hahahaha." Li He couldn't stop laughing.

Reba scratched Li He's squeaky nest with his hand and shouted: "Just scratch it, scratch it, who made you treat me like that last night and you haven't recovered now."

"Hey, Darling, you have to speak conscientiously. Who took the initiative last night?" Li He retorted.

Reba's pretty face turned red, and she became even more irritated and continued to scratch Li He's crotch, which made Li He laugh until his stomach hurt.

After laughing for a while, Reba went to wash up, and Li He used the notebook he carried with him to deal with some work matters.

After breakfast, Reba asked Li He: "Are you going back to Shanghai?"

"No, I made an appointment with Director Liu Weiqiang to meet in Beijing," Li He said.

"Are you still busy with work on New Year's Day? Just in time, I will have a meal with Sister Mi in the capital in the evening." Reba said.

"You don't want to go to the crew to film?"

"It's okay to have a day off on New Year's Day. I'll go to Xiangshan Film and Television City the day after tomorrow. You'll want to come visit me then!"

"OK," Li He nodded and drank the last sip of hot milk: "What movie are you filming now?"

""Twenty One Carats" is a movie starring Guo Jingfei," Reba said.

Li He nodded and said that if his meeting with Liu Weiqiang goes well, he will soon star in the first movie of his career. Although music is his main business, occasionally visiting other industries is also a good choice.

After all, in this era of increasingly diversified entertainment, being a mere singer or musician can no longer satisfy commercial pursuits.

Even the singer Seol-woo Chang has acted in movies and even won the best actor award. It’s okay for Lee Hyuk to give it a try.

In fact, there are many scripts that invite Lee Hyuk to star in, because Lee Hyuk's popularity in the music industry is unmatched. If he is cast in a movie or TV series, even a part of it will be a very high profit for the producer.

But it is a pity that Li Hyuk refused all other invitations except for his role in "Three Lives Three Worlds" and a Chinese-style theme song "Moonlight".

The news about Lee Hyuk's appearance in "Initial D" was already revealed by the producer, Bona Pictures, and started a small-scale hype.

The popularity of the New Year's Eve concerts has not yet passed, and this wave is just the right time to build momentum for the film in advance.

Netizens and the media have mixed reviews about Lee Hyuk's upcoming appearance in his first movie as a male lead. Some fans are looking forward to it, while others think it would be better for Lee Hyuk to concentrate on his singing career.

Most netizens are just happy with it, while a few criticize Li Hyuk for not doing his job properly.

The media also has mixed reviews about Li Hyuk's choice to enter the film and television industry. Looking at the routes of popular celebrities in recent years, they have appeared in bad films one after another.

After Yuan Hua and Lu Xiaohan both hit the market and the craze for popular movies faded a little, it's not surprising that Li He's film career is not optimistic.

In fact, if he wants to move to the film and television industry, most media think that it would be better for Lee Hyuk to act in a TV series or an idol drama.

With Li Hyuk's excellent appearance and high popularity, the TV series will definitely gain great popularity. Now that he has been released in a movie, it is a bit ugly.

No matter what the media and netizens think, this movie probably has to be made by Lee Hyuk.

"Bona has talked to me. They plan to form a young and energetic crew around you. They have already sent invitations to Yuan Hua, Lu Xiaohan and others."

At a time-honored restaurant in BJ, Da Mi Mi invited Li He and Reba to dinner and revealed inside information to Li He.

Li He asked: "Can Yuan Hua agree? I think he has been avoiding me."

Da Mi Mi shook his head and said: "Of course it's impossible to agree. On the contrary, Lu Xiaohan may admire your brave confession and help him share the firepower, so I'm considering it."

Li He and Reba looked at each other, and Reba said: "Forget it about Lu Xiaohan. I think his poor acting skills are not good at all."

"Don't say that, my acting skills aren't much better," Li Hyuk said.

Omi Mi smiled and said: "From what I've seen in the script, the Takumi you play doesn't actually require any acting skills. You just need to act like a young boy. He's acting in his true colors."

In fact, after confirming the starring role of Li Hyuk, Bona Pictures, as the producer, has been selecting actors.

Although Li He still needs an interview with Liu Weiqiang, there is news within Bona that if Liu Weiqiang does not agree to Li He's role, Liu Weiqiang will be replaced.

Just kidding, it was because the film's prospects were not guaranteed that Bona thought of inviting Lee Hyuk to star as the male lead.

The next day, Li He met with director Liu Weiqiang. This veteran director from Hong Kong has produced such a well-known work as "Infernal Affairs".

In the past few years, the development in the north has been relatively smooth, and I have produced a few films that have been well received.

"Jay, I have heard your name all the time, and I finally meet you." Liu Weiqiang came up and gave Li He a big hug.

Li He was very uncomfortable with Liu Weiqiang's enthusiasm and smiled awkwardly: "Hello, Director Liu, I am your fan."

Everyone can say a few polite words, but Liu Weiqiang didn't care. He invited Li He to sit down and chat: "This time Bona chose you as the male lead. I said this choice is very good. I like it very much."

Li He pouted, that was not what the news originally spread said.

At the beginning, there was a lot of controversy within Bona about Li Hyuk being the male lead, and the one who opposed the most strongly was Liu Weiqiang.

But after it was reported that Bona wanted to replace him as director and also want Li Hyuk to star, Liu Weiqiang's attitude changed and he supported Li Hyuk. This meeting was more like a movie director and the starring actor communicating about their feelings.

"The script has been finalized, and the filming location has been chosen in Gunma Prefecture, an island country. We also hired a professional racing team as a guide." Liu Weiqiang introduced the basic situation of this film project to Li He.

"For some difficult shots, we will use stand-ins, but for some driving shots, you still need to be on camera in person, so once preparations begin, you need to practice racing under professional guidance." The racing instructor on the side also said.

Li He nodded and said, "Of course I understand this. He told me about it when I had dinner with Sister Mi yesterday."

"What suggestions do you have for the heroine?" Liu Weiqiang asked.

Li Hyuk thought for a while and said: "This movie also has a big market in the island country. I think it is more appropriate to choose an island country actress as the heroine."

"I think so too. In fact, the crew chose you because of your popularity in the island country. What do you think of Airi Suzuki?"

"Airi? She is very good. She has experience in film and television dramas for a long time." Li He was surprised that Liu Weiqiang fell in love with Airi Suzuki at first sight.

Liu Weiqiang smiled and said: "I know you have a good relationship with Airi Suzuki, so I hope you will give her a call when the time comes."

"That's no problem." Li He agreed immediately.

After discussing some other details, the two parties parted ways.

The meeting went very smoothly. Director Liu Weiqiang was very satisfied with Li Hyuk. If he was not satisfied, there was nothing he could do about it. Anyway, it would not be Li Hyuk who left.
