Director Wu refers to the style of the famous GTA series in "Detective Chinatown" in the play "Detective Chinatown". It is also a tribute to the famous Hollywood gangster action film "Scarface" in the 1980s.
So, this is indeed an American film that takes place in Chinatown, not the kind of family fun that takes place abroad.
This is naturally to cater to the closure of the North American market.
There are few foreign language films that have achieved good box office in the North American market. There is no reason why it is not without.
"Detective Chinatown" has an investment budget of more than $8 million, which may not be much in the mainstream Hollywood market. The investment scale of small productions is definitely a rare medium-sized investment scale in independent productions.
With his years of hard work in Hollywood, Harvey Weinstein quickly invited the production team.
First, we invited a well-known photography team in Hollywood with a salary of $58,000 a week: photography director Robert Richardson and his mechanical team leader Chris Centrera, lighting engineer Ian Jinkai, and photography assistant Greg Tavenna.
The 12-person photography team led by this core team is not an unknown person in Hollywood. In 1987 and 1989, he received two Oscar nominations for "Battle of Field" and "Born July 4" respectively.
Later generations Robert Richardson was also famous, and of course the most famous is because he was the royal photographer who forced Wang Quentin to do something.
Wu Xiaozu also attracted Bao Xi, an old friend who has worked with him for many years, at a friendly price.
On the one hand, it is easy to use, and on the other hand, it also allows it to learn Hollywood experience and technology.
$58,000 was also a huge salary expense in Hollywood in 1990, which basically meets the salary level of a quasi-front team. If this drama is calculated based on a standard 7-week period, the camera team alone will spend $406,000.
This is a pure salary expense, excluding meal expenses, equipment rental expenses, transportation expenses and accommodation expenses and corresponding leave subsidies.
8 million US dollars is really a waste of money as a film project investment.
Because it was Wu Xiaozu's first Hollywood movie and it was also a brand new attempt by Touchstone Pictures. Although Harvey wanted to save, Wu Xiaozu still strongly provided the film with the final insurance. This part of the money needs to be paid in a single order - independent film production is rarely completed insurance.
With such a film-finishing insurance, Wu Xiaozu can also fool investment and tell stories. At least it is a good publicity for Touchstone Pictures.
After the arrival of the PPT era, you must also have professional PPT information to fool people.
In the film's artistic direction and styling design, Harvey also found a man named David Vishker in accordance with the style requirements provided by Wu Xiaozu, who is also a professional with rich experience in Hollywood.
Action guidance is naturally the family class, which is a team that both Wu Xiaozu and Harvey agree with. It is also the team that participates in the creation of "Detective Chinatown".
As for the choices of clothing design, sets, makeup, associate director, stuntman, coordinating crew members and other staff members, Wu Xiaozu did not have any special requirements, and all of them were confirmed by producer Harvey.
This time, he chose Lin Chaoxian and Jiang Digui as assistant directors. Both of them were talents with unique talents in action films. Later generations, the former became the director of a large-scale commercial action film in Chinese, and the latter was the pioneer and leader of Korean commercial action films.
Since he is interested in developing Asia-Pacific film strategies and plans, Wu Xiaozu is not waiting for me to support fresh filmmakers, and avoiding the lack of talent.
Even though the staff is striving for excellence, the crew still has 67 staff members, which is still not included in the case of actors and third-party staff.
The staff expenses and crew management are enough for Harvey, a producer, to have a headache.
Don’t think that Harvey is the great Yin Demon of later generations. Nowadays, he is more of a film overseas. He has few opportunities to do the production in person, and most of them have a name.
"Sex, Lies and Video Tapes" itself is also a project led by Wu Xiaozu. Even Harvey knew that Wu Xiaozu personally participated in the editing of the film. Because when the filming was filmed, it was really a mess.
Of course, the young Soderbergh didn't think so.
At that time, at the age of 26, he became famous in one fell swoop and won the Palme d'Or for his debut work. This stimulation of wealth from heaven makes people easily inflated.
What's more, a young man?
So, he kicked away Harvey and Wu Xiaozu and joined other producers and independent production companies. He thought he deserved it... and started a new film project "Kafka".
"Steven, a bitch, is an ungrateful puppy!"
Sitting on the sofa in the office of Touchstone Pictures in Burbank, Los Angeles, Harvey looked at Soderbergh's news in the newspaper, gasping for breath, and verbally yelling, "Son of a bitch! He is a sinister villain who is treacherous. Without our help, he is worthless now."
"Everyone has the right to choose. Besides, since you feel that way, why are you still angry?"
Wu Xiaozu smiled disconcerted, gently slid his fingers over the smooth black stockings on his secretary Aniston's leg, and then gently patted him on his buttocks, "Pick a dress for me, Vivian."
"What are my benefits, Boss?" Aniston gently drew circles on the other person's thigh, approaching danger.
"I think the Hermes bag you have new favorite should be able to supplement you, right?" Wu Xiaozu grabbed his hand.
"certainly--"
Aniston smiled gently, bent down and gently curled his tongue at Wu Xiaozu's earlobe. "At the same time, thank you for the role arranged by the boss. I like it very much. I will take good care of this lady, Boss! I will serve you at any time... giggle..."
Without waiting for Wu Xiaozu to react, he immediately pulled his hands, his eyes were full of jokes, and he twisted his buttocks and turned around and left.
Isn’t teasing the boss a daily routine for a secretary?
As for Zhou Yunu... Aniston didn't feel anything, did she regard Wu Xiaozu as her boyfriend?
Next to him, Harvey stared at Aniston with lust and eagerness, and then he reluctantly withdrew his gaze.
‘What a delicious sweetheart.’
If this LSP hadn't been concerned about Wu Xiaozu, he would have launched an offensive long ago.
"You're not optimistic about Steven's new film?"
Harvey calmed down. Although he was an LSP, he was very responsible, which was also because he was able to survive in the Hollywood independent production industry for decades.
"I'm not optimistic about his shooting of biography, especially those like Kafka." Wu Xiaozu shook his head, "It's not pleasing, and it's difficult to show the right level."
Harvey was angry because he felt that he was missing a genius director, but Wu Xiaozu was particularly glad.
Soderbergh is about to usher in a nearly ten-year low. It was not until 1998 that "Strategist" did not take a breath, and then it would not be until 2000 that "Never Compromise" and "Drug Network" truly rejuvenated and ushered in the peak of "Eleven Arhats".
A paranoid who has been leveling for a long time.
Wu Xiaozu had already arranged his way clearly for this No. 1 "tool man" in North America that he had discovered.
How can you understand Teacher Wu’s profoundness without touching a few years?... Bah, plan ahead!
He is not just concerned with fish raising in the pond. Director Wu is ahead of him, and what he wants to do is the Marshal of the Navy.
East Asia and North America bloom in two.
"Okay, I will take your affection as your comfort."
Harvey shrugged and pulled over the chair with his belly, "The Seven Sins Sects recently promoted it to Asians. Tonight, I invited some friends in the circle to support you, and I will also introduce it to you."
Although Wu Xiaozu did not make a Mingtang in North America and was not recognized by the mainstream market, John Wu's is also well-known in the independent production and literary film circles.
"I also invited Cage, and he said he would bring friends." Wu Xiaozu was also mentally prepared for the quiet premiere of "The Seven Sins".
If he really wants a scene, he might as well premiere in Asia. Whether in Goryeo or in Japan, he will definitely be very good.
"Takakura San, Choi Sang and Tony should be around the corner, right? They are very important in front of Asian fans. Especially Takakura Jun, who is now developing very smoothly among Asians in Hollywood. Ridley Scott's "Black Rain" is loved by many viewers.
You know, Ridley is now able to make money with Paramount, Sherry Lansing and Stanley Jafi, the pair are famous for Hollywood as they regard wealth as their lives." Harvey attacked the top leaders of the Hollywood Eighth with a sarcastic sarcasm.
Wu Xiaozu ignored him.
You said that others are just trying to clean your butt when you are soaking shit.
"It seems that Japanese actors have a good market in Hollywood." Wu Xiaozu joked.
"Of course, because Sony and Universal are both Japanese investors." Harvey said with a smile: "Other companies also like to find them for financing. I think the United States will probably be bought by Japan..."
Do you have a stupid person and have a lot of money?
This also shows Hollywood's attitude towards foreign markets, investors and filmmakers.
Don’t look at Harvey’s full of ridicule of Japanese filmmakers now, it’s because Wu Xiaozu was sitting in front of him. Who knows if he would mock him without restraint on another occasion?
The famous human sexologist Lu Xiaobu once said: If your friends are playing story-songking, they must participate and never walk away alone. Otherwise, you will never know what disgusting role they will arrange for you.
...
Rodeo Avenue, Beverly Hills.
It may not be as familiar as Sunset Avenue, but although Rodeo Avenue is a famous high-end commercial street in Los Angeles, many luxury stores are on both sides of the street, and the rare and gorgeous windows are dazzling.
You may see celebrities everywhere.
Three members of the three sisters tour group were holding cameras and checking in and out shopping in Beverly Hills. And because they were all rich, they were not as busy as a group of scholars, so they were very happy to shop.
"Look at this--"
The big boss of Jiquan Wang Xianxian held the Canon camera in his hand, and looked very professional to take photos of Li Bitch who was leaning against the railing.
Wang Xiaofeng was holding a box of snacks and fed them to her with a plastic fork.
In order to surprise Wu Xiaozu, although Wang Zuxian arrived in Los Angeles, he did not tell him.
"Come on, you two come over, I'll take a photo..." Wang Xiaofeng took the initiative to urge.
Wang Zuxian and Li Jiaxin hugged each other and said to each other (づ ̄3 ̄)づ╭?~?(°?‵?′??).
Sure enough, it is worthy of being two mouths used by the same man.
When we get together, it’s very beautiful, sweet, and very similar...
On the other hand, Aniston drove Zhou Yunu to buy evening dresses and walked into a store of high-end luxury dresses produced by Beverly Hills.
The real big stars are all high-order, but the premiere of "The Seven Sins" is obviously not so exaggerated.
Immediately afterwards, a car was parked at the door of the store. Wang Punk got out of the car with a lollipop in his mouth and a dark face. The assistant behind him followed him in a small step.
“Huh??”
Wang Xiaofeng held up the camera and suddenly looked across the street in confusion.
"I'll take a picture of you two... What's wrong with you?" Li Bitch looked at Wang Xiaofeng in a daze and couldn't help but push.
Chapter completed!
