Chapter 1187 Interesting facts about visiting the class and new work direction(2/2)
Zhang Xueyan, Zhang Manyu and even Liang Chaowei were also interested.
"I returned to Hong Kong some time ago and saw a newspaper report that Sir Wu's new film was a hit at the box office in North America." Zhang Xueyan mentioned it proactively, showing hope.
"Really?" Zhang Manyu looked at Wu Xiaozu curiously and enviously.
Seeing that everyone was interested, Wu Xiaozu did not hide it, held the tea cup with his fingers, took a sip, smiled nonchalantly, and said: "Hollywood's business system is more complete than ours.
"Chinatown" did well at the box office in North America, which also shows the advantages of our current Hong Kong films. However, we need to learn from the West and apply the West to China. First of all, we cannot change the things in our bones.
In fact, when filming this drama, the producer also suggested that Tang Ren, played by Brother Long, could be made more "funny", but I didn't adopt it too much.
Today you demean yourself because you want to please the audience, but tomorrow you may have to work a hundred times a thousand times to undo the negative consequences of your identity.
We have no right to ruin the efforts of generations of Chinese people on their own image.
Movies are an artistic business. "Chinatown" has a high box office in North America. In the final analysis, it is because the content is attractive enough and fresh for foreigners. It definitely does not mean just sensationalizing. The more you want to sensationalize, the farther you are from the real movie. Success goes further!"
Liang Chaowei nodded silently, but for some reason, he always felt that Director Wu glanced at him intentionally or unintentionally when he said this, which made Liang Chaowei confused.
"There is not much space for Chinese people to survive in Hollywood, but they are not completely blocked. This requires everyone's joint efforts.
"Suits 2: Traffickers" currently being prepared by Liu Weiyi will be co-produced by Touchstone Pictures, 1024 Locomotive, and Bad Monkey Films. In addition to Luo Dong, Hollywood actors will also be invited to star.
besides,
This year, in the second half of the year, Sino-US co-production will definitely enter the company's schedule.
If you are interested, you can submit your resume. As long as the role is suitable, I think the company will give priority."
As soon as Wu Xiaozu opened his mouth, everyone present was eager to give it a try.
Who doesn't want to go to Hollywood?
In this era, Hollywood is considered superior to many people...
Just look at Jack Cheng, who is now famous in North America and even Hong Kong Island.
When Wu Xiaozu entered Hollywood and worked hard, he definitely did not mean that one person would have enough to eat and the whole family would not be hungry.
Of course he wants to maximize profits.
Since it has been proven that the market for action movies is very broad in Hollywood at this time, of course Luo Dong, as a representative of "hardcore action", can also try the water!
If we don’t take advantage of the fact that there is still a market in Southeast Asia these days, why don’t we have to wait until the collapse of Hong Kong films before we take the plunge?
Now fault tolerance is the most appropriate opportunity.
Further broaden the sea and the sky.
Taking a step back can make you feel as stable as before.
Why not?
In fact, Wu Xiaozu himself doesn't mind Chinese actors playing villains in Hollywood movies, but it must not be the kind of role that is deliberately demeaning just because of skin color.
That doesn't make any sense.
However, it is foreseeable that basically Chinese actors will not have much room to survive in Hollywood, and their limitations will be very narrow.
The demand of the mainstream North American market determines the market value and opportunities for Chinese actors.
But, at least it can be exported and sold domestically.
If you really can't get it back, you can still be considered an "international star"! At least when you return to Southeast Asia, you can always "tactically fall back" with confidence, right?
After all, this is a real Sino-US co-production in the second half of the year!
PS: Do the monthly tickets in your hands...um...mean one or two.
PS: There will be more at night.
