I really don't want to fight with gods

Chapter 1396 Take off, Disney

Hong Kong filmmakers have indeed developed a fine tradition of spending small money to perform big plays around Hong Kong, which has only a million-level box office population, but is backed by a huge mainland market.

Furthermore, as a colony for many years, the characteristics of the fusion of Eastern and Western cultures allow director HK to switch between the two cultures freely.

Lao Yu is one of the best.

Looking forward to the future, Li An, who is also a regular Citi film major, has a long precipitation period before becoming famous, and has lived in North America for a long time, so he has a better integration with Hollywood.

The international film market, where Citi Hollywood has the right to speak, is more promising.

So first Lao Yu, then Li An, how many years have they been able to hold up the banner of Chinese-American filmmakers in Hollywood.

Lao Zhang was really close.

Even though he won the best director this time, he is still a talented cinematographer with first-class color and image construction ability, but in the short board of storytelling, this time it all depends on Jing Xiaoqiang's script.

So in the later stage, he did program planning and other work, and produced much more high-quality products than film directors.

But among these three, it can be said that Jing Xiaoqiang's real intention behind the cover of Hong Kong-produced western films is the most able to deduce.

Only Lao Yu.

If anyone still has doubts about the cultural significance of movies as a dream-making machine for humans,

I suggest that you can watch Lao Yu's three Huang Feihong.

This subject, which has been overused by HK filmmakers, is actually an insignificant team coach in history.

However, he uses images to tell the story of Chinese people gradually opening their eyes to see the world in modern history, and exploring the truth of revival and self-improvement.

From the lines to the artistic conception, the pattern of mind is extraordinary, and the beauty of the film is intertwined with the blood of the nation.

Even if Huang Feihong is also starring Jie Ge and filmed in the 90s, and it is not directed by Lao Yu, the internal taste will be quite different.

Therefore, it is only natural that he was able to shoot "Gladiator" with a truly epic sense under Jing Xiaoqiang's "supervised production".

From the very beginning, he was also the starting point for Jing Xiaoqiang to develop Hong Kong-produced western films and completely release the future market for HK filmmakers.

Originally, it was Mai Peiwei who coordinated between the two most talented men.

Not much heart-to-heart exchange.

But after two or three years of cooperation, Lao Yu is still completely convinced at this moment.

Looking at the burly figure who gave the most, but smiled and tried to hide himself among the many partners, he confirmed that he had found the direction with an epiphany.

Not the direction of the film industry.

It's what Jing Xiaoqiang has been doing all the time, the little things he has accumulated for the country and the people, isn't it the ideal that Lao Yu explored in various ways in the movie?

That night, his heart seemed to be echoing the words that Huang Feihong yelled: "...We not only need to practice martial arts to strengthen our body to resist foreign enemies, but more importantly, to broaden the wisdom of the people, and the unity of wisdom and martial arts, that is the country. The way to make the people rich..."

Isn't that what Jing Xiaoqiang did to Nei Jing?

While desperately promoting the development of singing and dancing performances, at the same time opening factories to develop manufacturing industries to promote industrial upgrading.

Externally, it is natural that someone needs to do the reverse operation.

Lao Yu, who has already secured a box office guarantee in Hollywood with "Speed", "Fast and Furious" and "Gladiator", originally relied on this best Oscar film to skyrocket his net worth and madly accept all kinds of big names Making money is soft.

But on the night of the award, he announced to the reporters who surrounded him that he had taken over Disney's Marvel masterpiece "X-Men", and he sat in the audience all night watching his partner become famous. Oscar-winning actor Hugh Jack Ma starred.

Budget $[-] million!
It is necessary to bring the familiar Wolverine, Magneto, and Professor X to the big screen.

At this time, the entire Hollywood and the North American market must have never seen what kind of spiritual opium a Marvel movie that flies to the sky and escapes from the earth.

I am full of expectations that the comic heroes I have seen growing up will be interpreted and expressed by such an Oscar blockbuster director!

The news spread along the Internet, newspapers and magazines, just what kind of star can be the casting of what kind of Marvel hero, let the entire North American fans talk about it with gusto.

Kadenberg, as the CEO of Disney, emphasized that Disney will spend a huge amount of money to build the world's most advanced new digital animator factory, ensuring that Disney will always be the best animation kingdom in the world, and welcomes the world. The animation genius who came to Disney to become the leader (da) leader (gong) (ren) of this era of computer animation.

Jing Xiaoqiang even pulled out a long list of future Marvel movies.

"X-Men" is just a collective name for a group of Marvel heroes who represent justice. After pulling out the entire structure through this play, it will follow Wolverine, Scarlet Witch, Spider-Man, Black Panther, and Iron Man of the Avengers. , US team, Thor Black Widow and other (hu) rich (bian) rich (lan) rich (zao) colorful characters will open separate films.

Now that the copyright of the entire Marvel heroes has been bought out, these almost unlimited character stories can be launched unscrupulously.

It anesthetizes European and American audiences with simple, brutal and gorgeous sensory stimulation.

In fact, Jing Xiaoqiang was the first black actor in Oscar history who presented the award to "Gladiator" at the end. Did he feel that this kind of ZZZQ has begun to spread?
Basically, he was buried in the ZZZQ disaster and zero yuan purchase flames, and now he must be more motivated to fuel the flames.

Then come on.

It can not only earn high box office easily and happily, but also increase the shooting budget crazily, so as to outsource a large number of post-production special effects to "low-cost areas", in disguised form of money laundering, transfer of funds, and blood transfusion for development.

perfect!

It is even more from a cultural level, and began to tamper with.

As the vice president of a Broadway theater, Jing Xiaoqiang, who deals with a lot of cultural people, understands the logic behind it all too well.

Lao Yu and the others didn't have time to celebrate and applaud, and immediately started casting "X-Men" under the highly focused media attention.

That alone could send Disney stock higher.

Sunny Pictures won't be disappointed either.

Disney focused on the Marvel and "Pirates of the Caribbean" series.

Sunny Pictures also has a lot of series in its hands.

What's more, most other Hong Kong-produced Western films continued to be distributed by Sunny.

Li An and Sophie Marceau immediately returned to the mountainous area of ​​Utah where the spring is warm and the flowers are blooming, to finish filming "Cold Mountain".

The new HK director and crew team have already taken over "Soldiers at the City" starring Jodlow and Weisz.

It seems that Jing Xiaoqiang is indeed like an international artist, shifting his focus more and more towards telling European and American stories.

He didn't even go home right away to be cheered on.

The 747 special plane first sent An Ning, Lao Zhang and their group, including Qu Dao, back to Pingjing.

After all, the anti-Japanese war drama, which was released in the North American market for the first time in China and won more than 2 million US dollars in the North American box office, is definitely one-sided in China now!

When it was first released, Lao Zhang still used Jing Xiaoqiang as a shield to resist all possible censorship and control, but now he has been completely given the green light.

In the past few years, the directors of art films who have been able to win the favor of the international market by making some dark and heavy themes in the Mainland, are now lamenting the success of Lao Zhang's transformation!

Climb the Mount Everest of global directors in one fell swoop.

It seems that he is already the best candidate for the first director in the Mainland.

Then there must be many symposiums and exchange meetings held to participate.

Not to mention an actress like An Ning, even Yi Mian, who accompanied her all the way, has completely become a patriotic model of Hong Kong and Taiwan artists.

Sister Li, who has won several gold awards for overseas actresses, chose to stay in Hollywood to see the situation at this turning point in her career and relationship.

In fact, Jing Xiaoqiang wanted to leave a long time ago, but now the praises are raging, and the hot spots of all parties are at their peak.

Everyone in this group slapped their butts and ran away, which further highlighted the feeling that the eastern power swept Oscar and didn't even clean up the mess.

He had no choice but to stay and deal with it with the subconscious reaction of the vice president of the theater. He called friends and friends to hold parties in the valley manor for several days in a row.

The little-known Jodlow and Weisz followed Ross Kurau, Xiu Jackma, Jean Arnold, and Guo Dastan with an attitude of fear and surprise, facing their envious colleagues in all directions.

The continuous celebration scene lasted for more than a week.

Finally, Lao Yu's massive casting was completed.

There is nothing wrong with those old, treacherous and cunning bosses who are impressive in Marvel movies. Old actors can happily participate as long as Jing Xiaoqiang chooses them.

So just list the names.

A little more difficult is the role of young people. The Marvel movies that gradually spread out after more than ten years make most of the famous actors only in their teens and 20s.

Most of them have to be recast.

Jing Xiaoqiang also gave a bunch of roles to his own people. Portman played the black widow when he was a child, Judy played the important role of the Rakshasa girl, and Tianhai cameo as the Japanese avenging angel.

Judy, who has stayed in Southeast Asia for a long time, is continuing her position as a Hollywood actress, ensuring that whether she likes filming or not, she will have enough market space in the future.

On the other hand, Tianhai showed his face in Hollywood blockbusters, and then returned to the focal point to reap the favor of all parties.

Guo Da, Statham and several of them also have roles.

Captain America found Ben Fleck, who is only in his 20s, to play the role, and then signed his good brother to play Spider-Man as an extra.

That's right, it's Matt Damon who was supposed to be Ryan in "Saving Private" and later became famous with "The Bourne"!

In Hollywood, he was later hailed as a guy with a koi physique. He always looks so ordinary, but he is always a super lucky guy who can play incredible roles.

Jing Xiaoqiang also intends to absorb his European spirit to ensure that this series of Marvel movies will be successful after they are released.

So except for the Iron Man actor, who is still suffering because of childhood nightmares and addiction problems, the other roles are basically in place.

The scenes of Hollywood celebrities and celebrities drinking wine and drinking cups made the media feel like a treasure. They squatted at the door of the mansion every day like a serial report, guessing and commenting on who won which hero role today.

Very entertaining.

Because of the special reporter Pan Yunyan, CBS captured a lot of internal photos, even breaking more news than ABC, Disney's own TV station.

Fortunately, this girl does not understand English, otherwise it would simply upset this balance.

But amidst the luxury and luxury of the fragrant wind and beautiful shadows, Lao Yu and Jing Xiaoqiang sat in the far corner of the mansion, each holding a glass of wine.

Looking up is the vast starry sky, overlooking the bustling night scene of Los Angeles.

For the vast majority of people, in such an environment, they already feel ecstatic.

But he asked Jing Xiaoqiang a question: "Can we really play a weakening role by making such a movie?"

Even he found it unimaginable.
