rebirth of change
Chapter 1429 Surprised Vision
Jackie Chan lowered his brows, and listened to Chen Kangjie's concise analysis seriously, without saying a word in the middle. When Chen Kangjie finished speaking, Jackie Chan's brows were still tightly furrowed.
For this cooperation with Chen Kangjie, Jackie Chan has devoted a lot of effort and is full of yearning expectations.From our own point of view, he is indeed an international movie star, even though we habitually add the word "international" to celebrities who are slightly more famous, and put gold on our faces.However, Jackie Chan is already considered an international movie star. Not only does he want to be famous in the southeast and Southeast Asia, but he also successfully entered the western market with "Red Fan District" and "Rush Hour", and is known by many western audiences. At the same time, his Names sometimes appear in Western media as well.But it must be admitted objectively that his reputation as an international movie star is not high enough.The reason why I say this is not to really slander my own people, but that the box office of each of his films in the West is not that high. Even his most popular "Rush Hour 3" has only a little bit of box office in North America. $[-] million.The combined global box office of the three "Rush Hour" films is only two-thirds of that of "Titanic".
Perhaps Jackie Chan himself realized that there is still a certain distance between his international reputation and his own media propaganda, and there is no way to compare with Chen Kangjie. His reputation is well deserved.
In the international film world, there are not many big directors who can truly create international movie stars. Cameron is one, and Spielberg is one...as long as it is a movie they put their heart and soul into, the protagonist in it will not win an Oscar. And become famous all over the world.It's a pity that these big American directors won't cooperate with Jackie Chan. It's not that they look down on Jackie Chan, but that they don't have the opportunity and basis for cooperation.The films they shoot are all shot from the perspective of the United States. The actors in the stories rarely have Chinese, and even if there are, it is a negative image.It is impossible for them to seriously invest huge sums of money to shoot a movie that promotes a positive image of China for a Chinese.It's impossible for an American director, and it's unlikely for a European director.
In Chen Kangjie's memory, the status of several Chinese movie stars who made their way to Hollywood was a bit embarrassing, at the same level.In the Chinese world, they are well known, and some have won various awards.But as soon as they went to Hollywood, their status was shaken, and it was difficult for them to gain a place in the West.
Since Western directors cannot cooperate, there is only Chen Kangjie.Chen Kangjie is the only Chinese star who firmly occupies the highest position in the world. Not only he himself has won almost all major entertainment awards in the West, but almost all the people who work with him have achieved success.
The reason why Chen Kangjie has a high and stable international status is also due to chance and coincidence. He first conquered Western audiences and listeners.The most important reason why he has survived and gained a great reputation in the world is that his works start from the perspective of Westerners.This is not to say that Chen Kangjie is smart and realizes the best way to break into Western society, but that the works he stole, whether it is music or movies, are written by Westerners, especially Americans.
This kind of unexpected starting point will naturally not be rejected, and it will easily be accepted and recognized.
At the beginning, Chen Kangjie didn't realize this problem, but when he won the Oscar for the first time, he really understood this key point through reflection.In other words, if the reborn Chen Kangjie wants to break into the international community with pirated Chinese works, it will be almost impossible, no matter how popular the work is in China.For example, the song "Mouse Loves Rice" used to be sung by almost all young people in China, and it was a smash hit. If we really want to push this song into the American music scene, no one will buy it.At least one thing, they don't eat rice very much, and they don't have much emotion for rice. They eat bread.
Now that Chen Kangjie has realized what is his magic weapon to enter the international community, he will not change so easily. If he wants to stabilize his position, he can only continue to follow the existing path for the time being.Of course, Chen Kangjie is not the kind of honest and stubborn person. He does not plan to be a banana man all the time——Huangpibaixin. After he has a huge influence, he also wants to use his influence to promote some Chinese culture and Oriental culture. Consciousness - not ideology, but our values.The earliest manifestation of this aspect was the dress he wore to attend international public occasions, not a suit, but a Chinese tunic suit.
When encountering a suitable opportunity, he will naturally not give up the possibility of a proper "change of heart". This is also an important reason why he is willing to discuss cooperation with Jackie Chan.It's just that Chen Kangjie is used to big scenes and big productions, so ordinary small fights don't catch his attention.Take the script recommended by Jackie Chan as an example. If it is seen by ordinary Hong Kong directors, it is indeed very good. As long as the money is invested in the film, coupled with Jackie Chan's fame and influence, it may be a big hit in East Asia and Southeast Asia. , but there is still a certain distance to rely on it to become famous internationally.
With Chen Kangjie's status today, even if he is shooting a Chinese film, his vision will not be so narrow. The focus is definitely global.
"Long, how do you think it should be changed?" After a long silence, Jackie Chan raised his head and asked Chen Kangjie with sparkling eyes in his small eyes.
"I have a few ideas to offer, you can refer to them to see if they are suitable..." Chen Kangjie didn't hold back, and Jackie Chan asked him and said.
"Long, please wait a moment..." Jackie Chan stopped Chen Kangjie with his hand and gestured to the company's executives with his eyes. And some papers were handed to Jackie Chan, and the rest were kept in hand, ready to be recorded at any time.
Chen Kangjie smiled, and did not object to their mobilization. When they were all ready with anticipation, he continued in his spare time, "First, the hostile forces in the movie need to be changed. Don't keep your eyes locked on the For the small countries in Southeast Asia, we can be bolder. For example, the CIA or the US government are good targets. What's more, it is not impossible to choose the US government. Of course, there is one thing to pay attention to, that is, the government Differentiate yourself from the people..." Chen Kangjie added this exhortation solemnly, because he did not want his works to be boycotted by ordinary Americans, which would have a negative impact on his reputation.
"Secondly, since the hostile forces have changed, the conflicts should change. We can set it up that a hawkish senior military official in the United States destroys our embassy privately in a certain conflict in order to test our strategic bottom line. In the tragedy, an embassy military attache escaped, and finally cooperated with the investigators sent by the country to uncover the US conspiracy. A hawkish general brought to justice..."
"Long, isn't this idea too bold? We are pacifists. If we set up a hostile conflict like this, it will cause disputes. The Americans will definitely not do it, and our government may not do it either." Except that Chen Kangjie was calm as usual, the three people beside him all had expressions of shock, and it was Chen Kangjie's assistant Liu Deyi who raised the objection.
"Long, I think what Mr. Liu said makes sense. This setting is too sensitive. Is it inconvenient for us to involve in things at the national level? Besides, our embassy in South Africa has just been bombed not long ago. Come up with all kinds of rich imagination.” If Chen Kangjie didn’t mention the bombing of the embassy, Jackie Chan might not have any objections, after all he said that Chen Kangjie’s opinion is the main one.But when it comes to the bombing of the embassy, Jackie Chan is a little confused. Although he lives in Hong Kong, he often travels to and from the mainland. In addition, Hong Kong has returned to the motherland.
In fact, everyone in the country understands that the government often advocates putting the overall situation first, loving peace, keeping a low profile, valuing and maintaining various friendly relations, a hard-won international peaceful environment, and advocating peaceful settlement of disputes, etc. In a word, basically is a conservative strategy.Against such a background, it is no wonder that such a film that challenges and vilifies the American military is not taken seriously and suppressed.
"If our embassy hadn't been bombed, I wouldn't have made such a proposal." Chen Kangjie said with a solemn expression and a firm tone with bright eyes.
It must be admitted that what Liu Deyi and Jackie Chan said are the truth.Our political environment restricts our artistic creation.All the heroes who save the world are Americans, all the brave heroes are Americans, because Americans are not afraid of making enemies, the Soviets, North Koreans, Afghans, Iraqis can be easily made enemies by them, because this is the case in reality, So it is the same in their art works. Americans can also shape aliens and mutated creatures into enemies, and they can even shape their own people into enemies, so their space is vast.
As for us, we dare not make enemies easily.The enemy is nothing more than some criminals, and the rest is history.The Japanese army is the enemy, the national army is the enemy, and the hero is of course either the Eighth Route Army or the People's Liberation Army.Going forward, the Qin Empire can be Jing Ke's enemy, and all kinds of monsters can be Monkey King's enemy.All in all, it seems that in reality we are so powerful that we don't have a single enemy, and no one dares to stroke a tiger's beard.Or our morality and justice have conquered the world, and everyone is very kind to us.In short, in our realistic works of art, Japan will not be portrayed as an enemy, the United States will not be portrayed as an enemy, Russia will not be portrayed as an enemy, and even small countries in the South China Sea will not become our enemy.
Things are going great!But is this really the case?Do we really only have the mange of muggers, drug dealers and the underworld?Of course not, it's just that our government doesn't want to admit it, and we don't want the common people to think about it.
For this cooperation with Chen Kangjie, Jackie Chan has devoted a lot of effort and is full of yearning expectations.From our own point of view, he is indeed an international movie star, even though we habitually add the word "international" to celebrities who are slightly more famous, and put gold on our faces.However, Jackie Chan is already considered an international movie star.
