Chapter 1,218 Who says I am an American
Houston Rockets?——Lin Feng was slightly startled.
"Haha, Lin, now your Houston Rockets are the most watched NBA team in the United States. Their fame and attention are no less than that of the Los Angeles Lakers who formed the 'F4' this year. And the Houston Rockets' current record is also the same as the Los Angeles Lakers.
Regardless of the differences, they both have 36 wins and 18 losses, ranking first in the Western Conference. In addition, the Houston Rockets have James, LeBron and Wade who are competing for the best rookies this year, plus the "God of Basketball" Jordan, as well as Yao Ming and Lin
, such a popular team, if we don’t take advantage of it, it will be a waste.” James Cameron exclaimed.
As an American and a Hollywood director, James Cameron is undoubtedly a fan of the Los Angeles Lakers. But he never thought that the Houston Rockets, a team that has declined to the point where it has become the weakest team in the league, will become a loser in the league in just two years.
, and returned to the ranks of the league's top teams. The most important contributor to this is naturally the young man in front of him. It was he who single-handedly planned the sensational trade of the Houston Rockets in the past two years, and that is why the Houston Rockets are now the best.
Strong, and perhaps in the next ten years, the Houston Rockets will be the top team in the league.
"James, what do you want to do?" Lin Feng asked curiously.
"It's very simple, you want them to shoot commercials for your Qianyuan mobile phone. Lin, never forget the star effect." James Cameron said meaningfully.
"James, what do you mean..." Lin Feng was not stupid, so he naturally heard something in his words.
"Lin, I guess you may hope to cultivate future superstars with excellent scripts and excellent directors, but now your film company has just been established and is still very immature. You want to cooperate with Sony Columbia Pictures and 20th Century Fox
"To compete with the 'Oscar Alliance' where movie companies and other film companies have united, you must come up with a blockbuster that is both well-received and well-received to attract audiences to your cinema." James Cameron said.
Lin Feng frowned. This James Cameron always seemed to have something in his words.
"Haha, I know, you may say that the 'American Movie Fan Club' you established has more than 700,000 members, but if you look carefully, you should know that the vast majority of them, more than 90%, are young people, and these people
They are undoubtedly the most fickle. Maybe they support you now, but they may also oppose you the next second. Young people in the United States are very rebellious, and their loyalty is far less than that of those who have already married. And their entertainment
There are too many activities, and movies are only one of their last choices. The real mainstream audience for American movies is those with families. And the pride these people have in American movies is unimaginable. You are now so proud of it and the Academy Awards
"Fighting the opposite channel, it can be said that they are still extremely disgusted. Maybe in the future these people will instinctively resist your movies and be unwilling to enter your cinemas." James Cameron said sincerely.
When Lin Feng heard this, he fell into deep thought. James Cameron is a gold medal director in Hollywood. Naturally, he would not be bluffing himself when he said this, but it was true. After thinking about it, Lin Feng looked at James Cameron.
I hope he can give himself a solution.
"Lin, if you want to attract these people into your cinema and get them to recognize your movie, you must play the star card and use the charm of big stars to attract them!" James Cameron said seriously.
When James Cameron learned that Lin Feng and Ellison were going all out to create new movie stars, he secretly complained in his heart. Although he and Spielberg agreed to sign a contract with the "Second Entertainment" film company, in addition to being under the control of Lin Feng
In addition to attracting scripts and funds, as well as full authorization during the filming process, more importantly, Lin Feng's "Second Entertainment" acquired "MGM Films", an old film company with a high reputation in the United States. These conditions
Together, these are the reasons why he and Spielberg are willing to sign with Lin Feng's "Second Entertainment".
I just never thought that Lin Feng would so openly oppose the "Academy Awards" and the "Oscar Alliance". This is really unwise. Americans who are absolutely proud of Hollywood movies will probably not buy Lin Feng's account.
.As for the so-called "American Movie Fan Club" which has more than 700,000 registered members, it is all said and done. James Cameron can say without hesitation that most of the 700,000 registered members are definitely Chinese Americans.
, and he is also a young Chinese American.
James Cameron really guessed it right. There are about 14.4 million Chinese Americans in the United States, and these 14.4 million Chinese Americans are the main force among the members of the "American Movie Fan Club" established by Lin Feng. Although they are Chinese,
After all, the blood of the descendants of Yan and Huang remains, so no matter how the outside world comments on Lin Feng's matter, they are absolutely supportive of Lin Feng. Because, everyone is Chinese.
However, if Lin Feng wants to rely on these people to sweep the "Academy Awards" that are deeply rooted in the United States and sweep the major American film companies, that is absolutely a fantasy. Not to mention sweeping, just watch James Cameron
Come on, it doesn't matter whether people will be willing to go to the cinema to watch a movie made by Lin Feng.
Therefore, James Cameron proposed that Lin Feng should play the star card and the Hollywood superstar card to attract audiences to the theater. Of course, this is not enough to solve the fundamental problem.
"Lin, if you want your 'Second Entertainment' to be truly accepted by Americans, and your 'Lin Feng Film and Art Festival' to be supported by Americans, you have only one way!" James Cameron
Seriously.
Lin Feng was awakened by James Cameron's remarks at this moment. He was sweating profusely about his previous blind optimism. He deeply lamented that if James Cameron hadn't guided him like this, I'm afraid he would have been so blindly optimistic this time.
Finally, he made a fierce somersault. He casually opened the files of the "American Movie Fan Club", and Lin Feng suddenly discovered that among the 10 files he opened, 9 of them were of Chinese descent, and one was not necessarily a pure American.
Thinking of this, Lin Feng felt his heart tremble.
"Mr. Cameron, please give me some advice!" Lin Feng asked with great sincerity, even using the honorific title in his words. A master is a teacher. At this time, James Cameron was Lin Feng's teacher.
James Cameron smiled. A child can be taught, so don’t expect him to be sincere. Of course, he also has his own purpose. And his purpose needs Lin Feng to realize it!
"Lin, if you want American audiences to accept your films, your company, and your 'Lin Feng Film Festival,' there is only one way, and that is to make this war in the film industry a war between Americans and Americans.
, rather than a war between the Chinese and Americans!" James Cameron said.
A war between Americans and Americans?—Lin Feng’s mind was slightly clouded, but he soon understood.
Americans are very proud and arrogant. For more than two hundred years, the United States has been the most powerful country in the world, and Hollywood movies are the originator of world movies and the goals pursued by movies from all countries. It can be said that Hollywood movies, in
Americans have a supreme status in their hearts. And he suddenly stepped in and faced off against the "Oscar Awards", which undoubtedly made many Americans unhappy. I am afraid that he has also become an "invader" in the hearts of Americans.
"Invaders", naked invaders of the American film industry.
When he became the "invader" in the hearts of the American people, Lin Feng could imagine how miserable his film company's box office would be in the future. And the movie theaters that invested huge sums of money to build in the United States could only be described as empty. Think about it.
The only way to change this situation is to turn it into a war between "Americans and Americans," as James Cameron said, so that you will no longer be an "aggressor."
Of course, Lin Feng was still puzzled.
"Mr. Cameron, even if I replace the company president with an American, will this become an American movie in the eyes of American audiences? Is my 'Lin Feng Film and Art Festival' an American film festival?" Lin Feng was very doubtful.
Can I deceive the Americans with my cheating?
James Cameron chuckled.
"Lin, Americans are the proudest nation in the world, and they are also the most generous. This nation has the spirit of tolerance and tolerance. This can be seen from the composition of the major ethnic groups in the U.S. population. As long as your company hires
If the movies produced by American employees are American-style movies, American audiences will accept them and will not think of them as foreign cultural invasion. It can be said that in a way, Americans are also very comforting." James Cameron
Give pointers.
Lin Feng thought for a while and nodded, but if this was the case, wouldn't his attempt to promote Chinese culture be in vain?
"Lin, if you want to promote Chinese culture, that's not a problem. You just need to get through the initial psychological stage of letting the American people accept your film company. Once they recognize your film company and film festival, you can
Why not make more movies with themes about Chinese culture? Didn’t you see that "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" was as popular in the United States!" James Cameron said.
When Lin Feng heard this, he suddenly realized that he stood up and bowed respectfully to James Cameron. With James Cameron's advice today, his company will not suffer heavy losses in the United States. Otherwise, I am afraid that not only myself will be the one this time.
They have to pay all the money, and maybe even Ellison will be implicated. Although this amount of money will not break the bones for the two of them, it will undoubtedly become a laughing stock. And this is definitely a joke.
What Lin Feng and Ellison didn't want to see.
"James, I don't understand. You are also an American. Why are you helping me so much? This is against your motherland." Lin Feng was very puzzled by this.
James Cameron smiled.
