World-class directors in the entertainment industry

Yunnan.

ancient city.

Beside the green mountain stream...

It is a small village that relies on the river to survive. The houses are all made of wood.

At this time, the villagers were all gathered together. In the middle of the field, a woman in white ancient clothes knocked down a monster with a few blows and put it in a treasure box. Only then did she have the mood to look at the man next to her.

The man has an afro and wears old clothes that look both monkish and Taoist.

"Are you an exorcist too?"

The woman stepped forward curiously and looked at the man a few times, then she couldn't help but asked with a smile.

"Um."

"Why?"

"Exorcism Ceremony."

"Exorcism Ceremony?"

"Three hundred children's songs."

"It can awaken the truth, goodness and beauty in the monster's heart. The so-called human nature is inherently good. Coupled with my unique interpretation..."

"Who said that?"

"My master."

"Do you believe it?"

"Whether you believe it or not, I believe it anyway."

"..."

"Click..."

"Okay, it's lunch time. Let's take pictures after eating."

Zhou Xingxing was very satisfied that this road passed quickly and shouted with a loudspeaker.

"Director Zhou, did you pass this point just now?"

Xu Wenfeng came over and asked.

He was the man with the afro just now, and he had been on the set for more than half a month.

"Yes, your acting skills are good. Although you joined the team a month late, it seems that you have not relaxed in studying the script. You must keep this in the future."

Zhou Xingxing replied with a smile.

To be honest, he had a problem with Xu Wenfeng a month and a half ago. Although the decision to delay joining the team was Xu Wenfeng's company, he would naturally have different opinions. After all, he is a human being, not a saint.

But now, more than half a month after joining the group, Zhou Xingxing has changed his view.

This guy is indeed a good actor and a decent person. He can endure hardships. He has never complained about anything. He doesn’t go out after the show every day. He just stays in the hotel to study the script. Anyone who has been with this kind of actor for a long time will have a good impression of him. Save your worries.

.

"Well, I will definitely work hard to improve my acting skills."

Facing his childhood idol, Xu Wenfeng answered honestly like a student.

"Relax, it's off-screen now, I don't eat people."

Zhou Xingxing patted Xu Wenfeng on the shoulder. He could tell that the other person was a little restrained in facing him.

"hehe..."

Xu Wenfeng giggled and didn't know what to say.

"Let's go eat, Liu Xianxian..."

Zhou Xingxing took another photo and shouted to Liu Xianxian not far away.

Although this girl's acting skills dissatisfied him a bit, it was a pity that the backstage was too tough and Zhou Xingxing had to take care of her.

"Xingzai, these are the newspapers for the past few days. They were just delivered."

After lunch, Zhou Xingxing's assistant Tian Qiwen walked into the director's exclusive lounge with a stack of newspapers.

"Any unexpected news?"

Zhou Xingxing took it casually, found his reading glasses and asked.

"It's nothing big. Recently, it's just news about Director Qin's movie release."

Tian Qiwen shook his head.

This is in the mountains, and it is impossible for a newspaper delivery person to deliver newspapers every day. Zhou Xingxing is not used to playing with computers and mobile phones. At his age, he is still used to reading newspapers.

"Director Qin's movie, counting the time, it has already been released."

Zhou Xingxing put on his reading glasses and said casually while unfolding the newspaper.

Filming in the mountains, newspapers can only be brought from outside every few days, so he naturally knows the news about Qin Dong.

"It has been released for a few days, with a total box office of 680 million U.S. dollars. I heard that a special effects blockbuster written by Director Qin the day after tomorrow will also premiere. The director is not Director Qin, but a big director of special effects films in Hollywood."

As an assistant, Tian Qiwen didn't need to think about this news and reported it casually.

"Oh? There is also this matter, I haven't seen the report."

Zhou Xingxing was stunned for a moment. He didn't read the opened newspaper and started flipping through it.

"Xingzi, the last one has it on it."

Seeing this action, Tian Qiwen knew that Zhou Xingxing was looking for this news, so he quickly started talking.

[On the evening of June 21st, Roland Emmerich, a great director in the field of Hollywood special effects films, will hold the world premiere of his new movie [2012 Armageddon]. It is reported that this is a Sino-US co-production, and the screenwriter is our Chinese super director.

Qin Dong, starring Chinese star Tony Leung Ka Fai, has special effects of US$150 million and a production cost of US$250 million.]

Zhou Xingxing looked at the reports in the newspaper and read them carefully.

"Wenzi, do you think there is still hope for my Hollywood career?"

After reading this report, Zhou Xingxing took off his reading glasses, became silent and then asked.

"Of course, Xingzi, I have actually wanted to say it for a long time. In the past, Hollywood only approached you because of your reputation in China. The requirements were too many, but now there is Director Qin. I heard that his agent is one of the three major Hollywood agencies.

The president of CAA is personally in charge, and coupled with the box office sales of several of his films, we can guess Director Qin’s influence even without reading the reports. I have studied Director Qin’s reports and found that as the director’s influence in Hollywood increases,

The bigger, the more

Chinese artists have begun to become active there. For example, Hu Changsu starred in the globally released "Source Code", Fan Liangliang participated in "Mission Impossible 4", Li Shuishui participated in the series of movies "Divergent", and Tony Leung Ka Fai participated in

"The End of the World 2012" will be released soon, Wu Zhenyu participated in "Super Human Body", etc. None of these people are artists from Director Qin's own company, which shows that he is willing to promote the overall development of Chinese artists."

Tian Qiwen started gesticulating excitedly.

Having followed Zhou Xingxing for decades, of course he knew everything about Zhou Xingxing. At the beginning of the new century, when Zhou Xingxing was at the height of his power, Hollywood wanted to find Zhou Xingxing to film there, but unfortunately the requirements were too many, even for the script.

, also includes actor selection, crew budget, and funding. Anyway, it strictly limits the power of a director.

Zhou Xingxing naturally disagreed with such harsh conditions, so his career as a Hollywood director was aborted.

"Director Qin..."

Zhou Xingxing sighed and fell silent.

His personality is that he doesn't like to ask for help.

...

Hong Kong Island, Airport.

"Jiahui..."

Tony Leung took his assistant out of the car and was about to enter the airport when he suddenly heard a voice that seemed to call his name.

"Hey, Dahua, what a coincidence?"

Seeing the vehicle coming down not far away and waving to the people here, Liang Jiahui walked over and asked with a smile.

"What a coincidence. Are you going to Los Angeles?"

Simon Yam nodded with a smile and asked.

"Yes, the premiere of the movie I am participating in will be held the night after tomorrow. What about you, where are you going?"

Liang Jiahui was not surprised that the other party knew this, because with the recent release of Qin Dong's "Super Human Body", the promotion of "2012 Doomsday" has also increased in China. I can't say that everyone has seen it, but most people also know it.

After all, once Qin Dong's name is involved, there will be no shortage of news. He, the leading actor, is also in Qin Dong's favor.

"When I joined the team for filming, it was also a script written by Director Qin. It was a co-production between China and South Korea. I will take people to Seoul and shoot there first. There are less scenes there."

Simon Yam followed Tony Leung Ka Fai and walked towards the inside of the airport while explaining.

Both of them have a good relationship with Qin Dong. They have eaten together and filmed together.

"Someday I have the opportunity to invite Director Qin to dinner together. I have to thank you very much. I, you, Zhenyu and others didn't know Director Qin before, but he took the initiative to provide us with many opportunities. This kind of kindness..."

Liang Jiahui smiled and suggested after hearing this.

They are not familiar with film and television companies in the mainland, let alone Qin Dong.

Mainland film and television companies basically don't look for them to film movies. Even if they do, it's only occasionally and very rarely, and the opportunities are too few.

All this has changed in the hands of Qin Dong. With Qin Dong taking the initiative to find Hong Kong actors to participate in movies, Hong Kong artists have also accelerated their integration into the mainland. The concept of the family has become clearer and clearer, and everything is going well.

stand up.

"You don't need to say that? It's just that Director Qin is very busy, and he can't see anyone after many invitations. I really want the few of us to make a movie together again, just like last year's "Gunfire", where we have a group show

, it’s really refreshing, I finished shooting a movie in just a few days.”

Simon Yam couldn't help but sigh when he thought about the movie they made in ten days with Qin Dong last year.

"Haha, it's hard for me to see. Director Qin's current movies are all aimed at global release."

Liang Jiahui smiled. Although he wanted to do it in his heart, his reason told him that it was difficult.

Some things cannot be changed so quickly.

Nowadays, the global film market is dominated by Hollywood. It is not easy to change. It takes time. Time will make China stronger and stronger. Only then will there be an opportunity.

Otherwise, it would be difficult for a movie with all Chinese actors to become popular in the global film market.

Occasionally one or two such movies are popular, but they are not considered popular. They are considered dark horses at most.

When, like Hollywood, many movies with all-Chinese actors appear every year and become popular around the world, will it really turn around.
