Hong Kong Entertainment’s Life Simulator

Zhao Donghuai was speechless about Zhou Xingxing running to play Ouyang Feng on the set of "Dong Cheng Xi Ji", but he would not object openly. Xing's performance would not be worse than the original version.

After thinking for a while, Zhao Donghuai spoke, "Ah Heng, Jia Ling, your movie is aimed at the European and American markets. If you want to make a lot of money, you must be willing to spend money to promote it. Don't waste money. I don't think you dare to spend 10 million US dollars to promote it." If you do it, you can get back at least 15 million US dollars."

"If you dare to spend 20 million dollars to declare your fortune, it doesn't mean you can't expect to spend 25 million dollars."

There is really a market for love movies like this.

What's more, in addition to love, its story themes are basically related to music. If you dare to spend 10 million US dollars, even if the protagonist group is basically a newcomer model in Europe and the United States, it will be easier than Cheng Long's Police Story 1 action movie. been accepted.

Because Jim Carrey is white…

In the global film industry, are there few romance films that are big hits? ? That's just too much!

It costs 10 million US dollars to announce the release. Even if it takes 30 million US dollars at the box office in North America and 20 million US dollars in Europe, it adds up to 50 million. Even if it pays 10 million US dollars in taxes, there is still 40 million figures.

It’s not difficult to get back $15 million to $20 million, right? ? After deducting the cost of US$10 million, there is still a considerable profit, which is a net profit in the video tape market.

This will definitely boost the popularity of Carina Lau and Jim Carrey.

Liu Jialing looked excited, "Don't worry, Mr. Zhao, before we started shooting, we had thought about spending a lot of money on publicity, but apart from posters, advertisements, and trailers, other forms of publicity are a bit difficult to choose??"

Ah Xing spoke up and said with a smile, "Jia Ling, you are also from the thigh era. Your song (NoBody) is popular in Asia and has countless fans. Even if you are married and become Mrs. Xu, you are not suitable for singing and dancing in concerts."

"But it's not too difficult to spend money to invite a few former teammates, hold a few concerts, and invite Brother Ah Rong and Brother Hua as guest guests, right??"

For a movie with the theme of music and love, wouldn't it be a good time to hold a concert to promote it?

Liu Jialing's eyes lit up, and Mr. Heng nodded in approval, "We can give it a try. Under normal circumstances, big stars make money by holding concerts. It's also a good thing if we pay to invite some teammates to come back and remember them."

Jia Ling, Mrs. Xu, is definitely not suitable for singing and dancing BoBody on stage, and Mr. Heng is reluctant to part with her. It is probably unrealistic to invite Gao Lihong, Mrs. Hong.

But it’s not a big problem to invite Lan Jieying, Zhang Manyu, Mei Yanfang, Qi Meizhen and others to gather together and reminisce about the past. How about chatting with Shao Daheng?

The second generation (thigh era) is also full of talents, including Fan Wenfang, Guo Feili, He Yin, Zhong Liti, Ye Fangya, and Dita Vontis. Doesn’t Shao Sheng want to gain some popularity in Europe and the United States?

Zhao Donghuai also smiled and nodded, "Yes, now we pay high prices to collect songs. For English songs, even if we can't buy very popular ones, as long as the choreography is good and we can sing and dance well in the concert, the response will not be too bad."

"Nobody itself is a small divine song... and no one would expect a concert to be all divine songs."

This kind of publicity method depends on how much Xu Jinheng and Liu Jialing are willing to spend for this. Although he can copy the divine song to each other at will, Zhao Donghuai did not do that, it is not necessary.

Liu Jialing smiled and nodded, "Thank you, Mr. Zhao, for your guidance. It's still early. We'll try to include a few good English songs and we'll have time to rehearse the dance."

With Carina Lau's current net worth, mainly her identity as Mrs. Xu, there is no need to play a reverse role of Zhou Botong in the partnership of Wang Jiawei and Liu Zhenwei, but doesn't this give face to Zhou Xingxing and Andy Lau?

In any case, the crew of "The East and the West" started preparations at the end of last month. It is a major project of 100 Years Pictures jointly controlled by Andy Lau, Sing Tsai, Wang Jing, Chen Baixiang and others.

Compared with (One Hundred Years Pictures), Xu's Pictures founded by the Xu family was a grassroots team before (New Love), and even if (New Love) becomes a big hit, Xu's Pictures wants to be in the entertainment industry in the future To develop and grow, we still urgently need the friendship of a hundred years of film industry.

After chatting and joking for a while, after Zhao Donghuai saw off the group of visitors, he took the master tape of the movie to the screening room. It was not a bad thing to watch a new version of the movie.

After watching the two versions of "New Love", Zhang Min sighed, "I didn't expect Ah Xing to have such acting skills in serious dramas and serious love movie roles?"

"After watching the whole movie, I felt so overwhelmed that I wanted to cry, and I also had a strange, different kind of inspirational feeling."

Xiaoxian wiped his tears and said, "I know it's fake and just a story, but the photo still touches people's hearts."

Everyone is a filmmaker, and we all know that what is shown on the big screen is fake and manufactured, but it is common for filmmakers to be moved by good movies.

Let’s talk about Leung Ka-fai’s (The Legend of Wang Wenxia). The ending scene of the movie made countless people in China burst into tears, including every filmmaker. Mak Yuen-hsiung and Jiahui themselves were moved to follow Wang Sheng’s footsteps. , and have traveled most of China.

You said (The Biography of Wang Wenxia) is adapted from a true story? In fact, that’s true of (新无情), it’s just that Zhao Donghuai didn’t point it out...

At most, Wang Wenxia Zhuan and Xin Bu Bu Qing are two different touching fields that collide.

One is about struggle, aid, and sacrificing one's life for the righteousness of the family and country in the context of an epic poem; the other is about personal inspiration, love, redemption, and being redeemed.

Zhao Donghuai sighed with emotion, "Just shedding tears for Xiaoxian, who can watch it, is enough to show that the promotion of this movie is more solid, and it will not be difficult for it to become a big hit."

Perhaps in East and Southeast Asia, audiences who are attracted to the theater by the appeal of Star Boy's King of Comedy, because this drama is not unreasonably funny, but rather tragic, will make countless fans complain and abuse, because of the image of the King of Comedy, The reputation of the movie was backlashed.

However, as long as Carina Lau and Jim Carrey co-starred for European and American audiences, it could gross over 100 million U.S. dollars at the box office? ? Once the white version explodes, countless banana people will naturally come back to restore Ah Xing's reputation.

When Zhao Donghuai sat in the office again, he received the report. Murdoch arrived. After a while, Murdoch brought a secretary and an assistant. After smiling politely, he said, "Zhao, my blockbuster film shot by 20th Century Fox." (Edward Scissorhands) is finally done.”

"I hope you can help me arrange a good schedule at Wanjia? Is this too much to ask?"

Zhao Donghuai was dumbfounded, "It's possible, but at this stage, in Hong Kong's bend, blockbusters are squeezed and impacted during good periods. The competition is cruel, so you have to be mentally prepared."

Lao Mo shrugged, "I'm prepared, but I still hope that you can help me get through to the mainland theaters sometime."

When did the original trajectory of Hollywood blockbusters enter the mainland? In 1994, the release of "The Fugitive" was considered a big success, but for many years, Hollywood movies did not make much money in mainland theaters.

In this dimension, under the influence of Zhao Donghuai's butterfly effect, the mainland's ticket warehouses exploded in advance, which is often much more important than the island country's ticket warehouses.

Of course, Hollywood can't let it go... They are lobbying harder than the original track. They want to release it, but they haven't succeeded until now, and they are still talking about it.

In comparison, Hollywood blockbusters are released on Hong Kong Island? In fact, there are no restrictions on North American blockbusters landing on Hong Kong Island. It was just that during the most prosperous period of the Hong Kong film industry in the 1980s, few Hong Kong movie fans liked to watch Hollywood blockbusters.

Originally, only Jiang Zhiqiang's Anle Cinemas liked to show Western films. It was considered a specialty of Western films, and its box office performance was often mediocre.

It was not until 1990 that the original film "The End of the World" grossed 34 million at the box office in Hong Kong, and "Pretty Woman" grossed 25 million at the box office, which was the beginning of North American blockbusters breaking through the box office in Hong Kong Island. It means that those blockbusters It has entered the top ten box office rankings in the Hong Kong film industry.

Xing Zai's version has a happy event at home, and the plot includes many imitators, unresolved love affairs, and Pretty Woman. It is a landmark event!

Now comes Jurassic Park... blockbusters are becoming more and more powerful.

For example, 1992 was called the Year of the Chow Star, and 93 or 94 was still the era of double Mondays and Jet Li. Hong Kong movies had not yet come to an end and collapsed during this period, but most of the time, everyone only counted the top ten annual box office lists of Chinese-language films. .

Take "Jurassic Park 1" as an example. When it was released in Hong Kong in 1993, it grossed HK$61.89 million at the box office. That year, Zhou Xingxing's "Jurassic Park 1" only had 40.17 million, and it already ranked first among Chinese-language films in terms of annual ticket sales.

This plane? Well, The Last Day, Pretty Woman, including the Jurassic series, are all produced in Chinese. Therefore, until this year, whether it is Lao Mo’s 20th Century Fox or other Hollywood giants, blockbusters are still under the control of Jiang Zhiqiang. Theatrical screening.

The box office continued to be very sluggish.

Under these words, Zhao Donghuai naturally would not agree casually, "I'm sorry, you have to talk to the mainland. Those are matters of the relevant departments. I can't do anything. At most, I can help your movie win the box office in Hong Kong."

Lao Mo looked depressed, "Zhao, the male protagonist of (Edward Scissorhands) is Johnny Depp. He is a star under your Zhao Films. The movie is a hit, and he is also the one who is praising you."

Zhao Donghuai made a cup of kung fu tea for Lao Mo and complained, "You can pull it off. If it weren't for grabbing the bonus from (Spider-Man 1), would you ask Johnny to be the male protagonist?"

It is said that Johnny Depp established his position in Hollywood with the help of Edward Scissorhands and was nominated for the Golden Globe Award. Before that, Johnny had always been a Hollywood star and was not very eye-catching.

But in this dimension, he is Little Spider. Even after filming Little Spider last year, he is still doing special effects. He has been doing special effects for almost a year. That is the technical difficulty of big special effects movies. Therefore, Lao Mo When its film and television group started filming (Edward Scissorhands), it continued to fall in love with Depp, and it really took advantage of the east wind to take off.

Murdoch was suddenly speechless and could only pick up the teacup and drink tea.

Instead, Zhao Donghuai lit a cigar and asked curiously, "Who is the heroine of this movie? I remember that the first heroine you chose was Winona Ryder? Is there something wrong?"

He remembered that when the project was first established, the 20th Century was indeed a group of male and female protagonists recruited from the Hong Kong film industry?

Continue to tease Winona Ryder and Johnny's partnership in (Spider-Man 1) Dongfeng?

But it seems like Winona Ryder didn’t go to Hollywood during that time, right? (Spider-Man 1) was filmed at the end of last year, after the new year? Not only did Winona Ryder have many movies shot in Hong Kong, she was also the eighth on the list of the top ten beauties in 1990...

Murdoch explained, "Initially, the director felt that Winona Ryder was a good fit and gave her a film contract with a salary of $2 million."

"But Winona refused. She has a white female lead version of (The Little Mermaid) and a white female second version of (Mermaid Legend)."

"We just cast a beautiful actress in Hollywood named Maychen Amick."

Zhao Donghuai suddenly realized, "That's it."

He just said that the time was a little wrong...

The next moment he looked at Xiaoxian and said in Mandarin, "By the way, when Zhu She Lao Wu and Zhu Yanping asked Winona Ryder to play the white version of the heroine of Xiaolin Boy, how much salary did they give her?"

Wang Zuxian thought for a while and said a little uncertainly, "6 million Hong Kong dollars?? No, this old Mo said that Winona will star in (Edward Scissorhands) for 200 US dollars. That's 15.6 million Hong Kong dollars?!"

"Boss, wait a minute, I'll call and ask."

No wonder Zhao Donghuai complained. Is there something wrong? One is worth 15.6 million Hong Kong dollars, and the other is only 6 million?

The two communicated in Mandarin, but Lao Mo still smiled and took a sip of tea and exchanged, "It seems that girl Winona said she was indifferent to the kidnapping case that happened on the set of (Spider-Man 1) last year and was not afraid. .”

"It actually has an impact."

In July last year, she flew to New York to start filming (Spider-Man 1). At that time, Winona didn't care where she was filming.

Zhao Donghuai nodded, "She is accepting the film at a friendly price now. My (Legend of Mermaid) crew will also give her some red envelopes later."

(Laughing Lin Boy) After (Mermaid Legend), Winona Ryder still didn't mind playing the second female lead. She was the second female lead and was only paid 500,000 Hong Kong dollars.

Even if she can make money by selling goods, the income from selling goods over the years is not a small amount of money. For example, Liu Xiaoli's salary was very low when she took on the movie, but after one and a half years, she earned 30 to 40 million from selling goods, after tax.

But the second female lead, 500,000 Hong Kong dollars, doesn’t mind playing a supporting role for the white version of the female lead, Jennifer Aniston. In terms of celebrity status and commercial value, it’s too interesting.

Before Lao Mo came over this time, he really hadn't thought about these little things.

Mentioned it, it connected it in my mind. As for the heroine of this version (Edward Scissorhands), Mei Chen Amick? Zhao Donghuai also has the impression that this girl, who is not yet 20 years old, is known as the North American version of Li Jiaxin.

It is an example of a short-lived flash in the pan in Hollywood, which shocks a wave of audiences and then quits, and quits the industry after getting married.

One of her more classic masterpieces is 1994 (Female Lover), in which she played a version of the role of the Green Tea Queen. She had a very fierce image. She stayed in it for a few minutes, and her figure and face were very beautiful.

However, from Zhao Donghuai's perspective, Meichen Amick only looks like Li Jiaxin in some aspects of appearance. Generally speaking, her appearance and facial features are much tougher than Jiaxin's, and she is less refined and refined.

I chatted with Lao Mo for a while and agreed to help (Edward Scissorhands) to be released in Wanjia Cinemas in Haowan, Hong Kong. At most, it will be on the same schedule as (God of Cookery)...

After seeing off Lao Mo, he said to Zhang Min, "Arrange a check red envelope for Winona Ryder. It doesn't need to be too much. Give her 2 million Hong Kong dollars. If Mermaid Legend becomes a big hit after its release, continue to give out red envelopes." Send it to her as usual."

………………

Huayuan Phase 1.

It was Cai Shaofen's house where the sound of mahjong was still non-stop. Hong Xin was sitting at the mahjong table. Although he lost in a mess, he had lost hundreds of invitations to dinner and shopping in the whole morning.

But her aura was still very stable, as if special effects were turned on, while Winona Ryder held a small cup of Cup Noodles, took a bite of a noodle, and commented, "Just now you... You shouldn't have three shots, Aniston is obviously a single shot, you are too stupid."

From the side, Yuan Jieying smiled and said, "You are a true gentleman who looks at the cards without saying a word. Winona, just eat your noodles..."

Winona shrugged, "You haven't started fighting yet, okay? I didn't say anything in the last round and watched Sister Xin lose."

Chen Derong glanced at Winona curiously, "Hey, Winona, Universal Hollywood offered you a salary of US$2 million to star in a movie, but you refused again? Aren't you idle recently?"

Even Yuan Jieying was curious when these words came out. She had heard some of the rumors, but she and Winona hadn't gotten together many times before, and she didn't feel comfortable asking about some of the rumors. Now it sounds like it's not bad to eat.

Winona swallowed a noodle again and said, "Rejected, you see how idle I am? When I was filming (Legend of Mermaid), my boss said that after this movie, he might arrange for Ah Xing to film another one ( Mermaid), who is in the comedy style, said she would reserve the heroine for me."

"Also, Ah Xing said before that after finishing filming "God of Cookery", he might pick up the plan for March and shoot "Trucking School Dragon 3", and also consider asking me to be the heroine. "Playing Back to School Dragon 3" is the original one. The biggest blockbuster of the year in Centennial Pictures’ plan.”

"Aren't I afraid that I'll go to Hollywood and miss my schedule?"

Hong Xin glanced at Winona and said in a slightly weird way, "This girl has very high standards now. I heard that Universal offered her a contract with a salary of US$2 million. The director of the project is still Steve As for Vin Spielberg, he is the great director who made (Jaws) (Raiders of the Lost Ark) and (ET)."

Chen Derong instinctively opened his mouth and said in disbelief, "Forget it about a big director, that's 2 million U.S. dollars for a movie? 15.6 million Hong Kong dollars? You don't make any money? You don't even make any money?"

She also knows that Zhao's planned version of Xingye (Mermaid) will not be bad, and (Truy School Dragon 3) will also not be bad, but this is not...

I kept it verbally, but after talking about it, I still haven't confirmed that I will give her the heroine, let alone when will the filming and preparation of the two projects start?

Anyway, according to the film schedule of the theaters, neither "Mermaid" nor "Truy School 3" will be released in theaters in 1990, so we can only wait slowly.

Isn’t it cool to go to Hollywood and earn $2 million in your spare time?

Winona happily put down the cup noodles and spread her hands, "Sisters, we have passed the primitive accumulation period. Sometimes it depends on your mood and preferences when accepting movies. You have just become famous, so wait slowly."

"The film contract submitted by Universal was to remake the 1962 film (Cape Fear), and I really didn't think the script was very interesting."

This is a bit Versailles, but it is true.

It's not that she doesn't care about $2 million because of her swollen wealth, but when she has different choices before her, the mere number of dollars won't affect her final decision.

After all, since 1987, she has starred in Rain Man (Scent of a Woman) and Scented a Woman, which has become popular in Europe and the United States. She has replaced the original Qiu Shuzhen character in Tricky Expert, and there is also a TV series with a white female protagonist (The Beginning), which has appeared on silent After Doc's Fox television network, the ratings exploded.

Just like the original track Bruce Willis filmed for several seasons (Blue Moonlight Detective Agency), the salary was directly upgraded from a supporting role to 5 million US dollars for starring (Die Hard Part 1). That was the original track in 1988.

In Europe and the United States, as well as in modern Hong Kong, stars who appear in hit TV series and become popular are really no worse than movie stars who are hit in movies, regardless of their status or salary.

During the Spring Festival, 20th Century Fox offered her $2 million to play the heroine of (Edward Scissorhands). They didn’t just want to take advantage of the success of (Spider-Man 1), but Winona’s own status was not that bad. .

This is not the limit for the salary of a Hollywood actress. You must know that Barbra Streisand received a blockbuster movie as early as 1987, and her salary was US$5 million.

The original track was that Julia Roberts became famous after filming "Pretty Woman" in 1990. The next movie she took on was $7 million a play, replacing Barbara as the top actress in Hollywood.

Julia Roberts was also one of the pioneers in the new era of Hua Dan's astronomical salary in the new millennium, with a movie costing US$20 million, breaking into the US$20 million club.

Although Julia is a bit loud-mouthed, she was really one of the role models in the 1990s.

Now in this dimension...Julia is still one of the role models for female stars in the world. It's just that above her there are Isabel Adjani, Laura Fernand, Jennifer Connelly and others, even Came Ron Diaz, Jennifer Aniston, etc. also quickly caught up with her.

The expression on Chen Derong's face was extremely complicated as she spoke. She was really impressed by Versailles. She is a rising star and has only filmed the Chinese version of the heroine (Wan Sheng Lingling Qi) and the second female lead (Joking Zhengde).

Qiong Yao wanted to cast her as the heroine in an idol drama, but the salary was too low... 1 million Hong Kong dollars to shoot a TV series? Now she is receiving film remuneration from Zhao Films, and it should be at this price.

If someone outside invites her, wouldn't she give her three million dollars?

She has been earning a good income from selling goods for a long time, but she is still envious of the starting salary of US$2 million.

Even if Chinese female stars take on roles within Zhao's film and television group, they rarely get more than HK$6 million in salary.

Hong Xin smiled brightly and said, "Ah Rong, if you want to make a lot of money, you can't expect to make a lot of money from movies and TV series in the short term. Chinese actresses and white actresses do have a different level of appeal in the European and American markets."

"It's better to run your bucket and washbasin factory and promote business to get rich."

Chen Derong rolled his eyes and didn't want to reply to her.

I know that your shampoo and washing powder were sold in South Korea, Thailand, Hong Kong and Haowan in August, and the total sales exceeded 250 million Hong Kong dollars. No need to show off anymore... isn't it just a lie?

It's okay to fuck her instead, and maybe she'll be better and better!

At this moment, the BB camera on Winona rang. When she grabbed it and took a look, she said in shock, "Sister Xian asked me to go to ATV to receive a red envelope?"

She put down the BB camera and was scratching her head, "What kind of red envelope do you want to receive? The Legend of the Mermaid isn't showing yet."

Then she blinked and said, "Sister Xin, stop fighting. Take me to get a red envelope first, and then make up for it when you come back."

Hong Xin didn't refuse even after thinking about it. After she left, what would happen? Don't make trouble, this is Cai Shaofen's house, and the ones doing it right now are Hong Xin, Yuan Jieying, Chen Derong and Jennifer Aniston.

………………

As the two women drove to ATV, Winona in the passenger seat said coquettishly, "Sister Xin, I heard that kissing can help you lose weight. It not only consumes calories steadily every minute, but also exercises dozens of facial muscles. Helps blood circulation and cardiovascular stability.”

When Hong Xin looked at her blankly.

Winona acted even more coquettishly, "Can you tell the boss that the Hong Kong dollar red envelope will be used to help me lose weight? You see, I am not short of money, I eat noodles one by one, and I dare not let go..."

“Putting Hong Kong dollar red envelopes and the temptation of delicious food together, I would definitely choose the latter!”

Hong Xin's face darkened, he controlled the steering wheel with one hand and reached out to pinch his face, "What good thing are you thinking of?"

Winona looked aggrieved and dissatisfied, "Obviously I was the one who measured it first..."

………………

ATV Office.

When Zhao Donghuai saw Ah Xin carrying a food box and had a brief conversation, he was even more surprised, "Winona also recommended Universal's (Cape Fear)?? Just because I mentioned it when filming (Legend of Mermaid) Ah Xing version (Mermaid)?”

Seeing Hong Xin nodding in response, he was a little speechless.

Universal's (Cape Fear), he has an impression. In 1991, it ranked 12th on the North American box office list. It had a box office of US$79 million in North America and US$180 million globally. This movie also had the male protagonist nominated for a Golden Globe Award and an Oscar Award. Nominated for the Golden Bear at the Berlin International Film Festival.

After thinking for a few minutes, he said, "First send her a red envelope of 2 million Hong Kong dollars. You can take it back to her, and I will write a script for her."

Don't talk about A Xin now. Xiao Xian on the side was surprised, "She is so cheap? Although according to what Murdock said before and A Xin's addition, Winona is indeed quite generous, but she is not Do I need you to write the script yourself?"

Zhao Donghuai shook his head, "It's not cheap. Of course, as a boss, rewards and punishments must be clear."

He was just choosing what movie to arrange for Winona Ryder. He went back and forth and chose the movie (Hearing Girl/Finale). As for why he didn't start filming the Ah Xing version (Mermaid) or (Truancy). Veyron 3)?

Doesn't Zhou Xingxing also need to rest? That guy not only photographed (God of Cookery) (New Love) one after another, but also picked up (Effects and Successes).

As for (hearing girl)? This is a premiere in 2021. Apple TV streaming media spent US$2,500 to buy the online broadcast rights, and it also won the Oscar for Best Picture trophy.

Theater box office? ? Sorry, it’s 2021...

Where does the global theater box office come from? The online copyright of 25 million U.S. dollars is equivalent to 160 million yuan when converted into RMB. Apple TV is not completely bought out like (囧Mom), and this film is indeed in theaters.

What is this movie about? It is about a girl who grew up in a hearing-impaired family. To put it simply, her family is all deaf-mute except for her. She has been the interpreter for the family since she was a child.

During the growth stage, he was not only ridiculed and isolated, but also had to shoulder the pressure of caring for his family. In the end, he became a blockbuster in his singing career and was admitted to a world-renowned music university, embracing his dream career and family at the same time.

This is an inspirational coming-of-age film with a female protagonist. It is a remake of the 2014 French film (The Baileys). The original version (The Baileys) won a bunch of French César Awards, and the box office... was released in France and won The 7.3 million movie viewing results were lower than those of Hollywood movies of the same period (Kingsman).

7.3 million people? Based on the price of a movie ticket in France of 7 euros at that time, this was more than 50 million euros, and it was just France!

It's just like (Infernal Affairs), but Hollywood bought the remake rights and changed it to "The Departed". The French film's offensive in Hollywood couldn't take off, and then there was "Hearing Girl".

Why did Zhao Donghuai choose to film (Hearing Girl) instead of the original version? It’s just a setting issue. In the setting (Bellie Family), the heroine’s family runs a farm, while (Hearing Girl), the heroine’s family is a fisherman...

In the environment of Hong Kong Island, you would say that it is okay to have a farmer family, but it would be too unrealistic to open a farm. Instead, you would drive a fishing boat out to sea for fishing? Not to mention the New Territories, there is no shortage of fishermen in Hong Kong and Kowloon.

After the script was written, Zhao Donghuai began to think about who to cast in the movie, not the heroine, but the heroine's family.

Her parents and one brother are both deaf-mute. The original version (Hearing Girl) actually cast two deaf-mute people. The one who played the deaf-mute father won the Golden Globe even though he was a middle-aged man. Award for Best Supporting Actor, Oscar for Best Supporting Actor.

There are even more awards from various other film festivals.

If you asked Zhao Donghuai to find a real deaf-mute person to play the role, it would definitely not be difficult, but from the perspective of an actor? It would be a piece of cake for Bruce Willis or Al Pacino to handle such a role.

As for deaf-mute mothers, neither Isabelle Adjani nor Laura Fernandez are bad, but these two must wear make-up to look ugly...

Who is the deaf-mute brother looking for? Nicholas?

This movie does describe a lot of family and family scenes. When the heroine grows up and goes to college, and seems to want to leave the family and get rid of the burden of the family, the deaf-mute father is extremely resistant and regards her as a traitor before turning to another family. And support her daughter’s life dreams.

There is also a love scene involving the heroine, but it is really just an embellishment and is described briefly like a dragonfly.

He was still thinking about it when Xiaoxian, who had roughly read through the script, came over and said, "This book is really good. Do you want to make a Chinese version? I've been idle for so long, and I want to give it a try."

It is said that starting from September 1988, Xiaoxian has been out of the industry for two years. "If I want to act, I will delete the love scenes and only focus on the family's life and dreams. It feels good, regardless of word of mouth or box office." , there is hope for a wave of explosion?"

Zhang Min blinked, "Hey, wait a minute, Xiaoxian, you have a great singing talent and can play a role that can become a singer or musician??"

Is there something not quite right?

Wang Zuxian's eyes widened, "Do you doubt my strength?"

Amin didn't say anything. He just looked at Zhao Donghuai with watery eyes. After all, he took photos when he was young and left some classic film and television projects. Looking back at them when he is old is also a kind of nostalgia. The last one (The Queen Who Went Through Five Thousand Years) was praised. Qiu Shuzhen.

Azhen both won the Cannes Best Actress trophy with Julia Roberts, and the double-yolked egg was also the Best Actress trophy.

Global box office of more than US$300 million? The white female lead version just replaced the old queen played by Liu Xiaoli with Julia Roberts who made up to play the old queen. The version that swept Europe and the United States also had Qiu Shuzhen as the new queen.

Xiaoxian... five movies (A Chinese Ghost Story) and one TV series (My Love from the Star), aren't they enough?
