Huayu Zhihao

Chapter 151

"At first, I was wondering if you would go to the United States and never come back, but now it seems that you have your own plan, as long as you don't forget the country." Han Sanping laughed.

"How could I forget? After all, I also have yellow skin and dark eyes. Even if I succeed in Hollywood, I can't fully integrate into it. In Hollywood, I am always an outsider, and their tolerance for me is far less than that of Westerners.

Wu Baige is the best example. When "Face Changing" and "Mission: Impossible 2" were successful, he had the final editing rights, but now "Wind Talker" failed, leaving him with almost no scenes to shoot .

It may indeed be beautiful in Hollywood, but it is a foreign country after all, and the sadness and hardships in it are unimaginable to ordinary people. " Chen Hao shook his head.

Han Sanping nodded when he heard the words, "The moon is the light of my hometown, and the golden nest and silver nest are not as good as my own doghouse. But since you have taken the first step in Hollywood, you must go on firmly.

If it really succeeds, then when it comes to co-productions, I can try my best to help you solve the shooting conditions, whether it is funds, co-production qualifications, or even actors. "

"Then thank you Director Han." Chen Hao nodded after hearing the words, "If you support me, then I can do it freely."

"Haha, no problem." Han Sanping said, "However, if you fail, don't be discouraged. You can come back to China and accumulate more experience. Then I can invest in you to shoot domestic science fiction films, real large-scale special effects science fiction films."

Chen Hao smiled when he heard the words, "Then I don't even have any worries about the future."

"Don't worry, I will always be behind you and support you." Han Sanping smiled, with admiration in his eyes.

When Chen Hao heard the words, his chrysanthemum tightened suddenly, and he smiled awkwardly.

"What are your plans for the co-production?" Han Sanping asked.

China's co-productions have a long history, but most of them are co-productions with Xiangjiang and Baodao, and there are also co-productions with the United States.

After all, co-productions enjoy the treatment of domestic films, and the box office share is much better than that of imported films and approved films (buyouts). Hollywood naturally wants to promote co-productions.

However, the result was not ideal.

There are many problems in co-productions. Judging from past cases, it is difficult for co-productions to achieve box office hits in the Mainland and North America at the same time.

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" has a North American box office of over 1500 million U.S. dollars. It is still the highest-grossing foreign language film in North America, but only [-] million domestically.

"Jinling Thirteen Hairpins" and "31" are both blockbusters at the level of [-] million yuan in China, but the box office in the United States is only about [-] US dollars.

"Kung Fu Dream" grossed less than 5000 million yuan in the mainland, but it grossed 1.76 million U.S. dollars in the United States, and entered the top 20 box office charts in North America that year.

There is also a single genre. In the North American market, the high box office is basically martial arts and action genres. Other genres are very unpopular. It can be seen that cultural barriers are difficult to break.

Even later, even action movies could no longer sell, such as Keanu Reeves' "Man of Tai Chi", which cost 10 US dollars, and Long Ge's "Heroes and Lions", which cost 7.4 US dollars.

However, with the explosive growth of China's film market, Hollywood will naturally not let it go, resulting in the birth of many bad co-productions that make money.

For example, "Escape Plan 2" by Stallone and Huang Jiaozhu, no matter how bad it is, it is a mainland special film, which is directly sold on DVD in North America, and it is not even shown in theaters.

Co-productions seem to be a strong alliance, but cooperation is often superficial, and it is difficult to make both parties pleasing, which is also a big problem.

"About one-third of the mainland's funds are filmed in the mainland, and one or two important roles are Chinese actors." Chen Hao thought for a while and said.

After all, Chen Hao still wants to make a movie in the North American market, after all, the most important thing is money.

To make a co-production is to take advantage of the trend, find more domestic partners to pave the way for the future, and release one or two Chinese movie stars at the same time.

But as far as making money is concerned, these can only be placed in a secondary position.

Han Sanping nodded when he heard the words, "Okay, let's wait until your movie box office comes out. If you really succeed, you must come to me when the time comes, and I will find a way to help you solve the financial problem."

"Okay, thank you Director Han first." Chen Hao nodded with a smile, then said goodbye and left.

This meeting is obviously a good thing, Han Sanping has always admired Chen Hao, this meeting is obviously an expression of support and value.

Chen Hao couldn't help but think, we are also people with someone behind us, uh... someone above us, uh...

After returning to the company, Chen Hao went home after finishing his work.

When he is busy, he can't go home for several months. Now Chen Hao is not the one who opened an orphanage in his previous life. It is better to spend time with his parents when he has time.

Chen's father and Chen's mother were naturally very happy to see Chen Hao. Although they didn't say anything, it was better than anything else that the whole family was together!
When eating in the evening, the family enjoys themselves happily, listening to their parents chatting about family affairs.

"Old Chen, now we have a car at home, take me back to my mother's house sometime." Mother Chen said.

"Okay! Langfang is only over 100 miles away from the imperial capital, and it takes more than an hour to drive there!" Father Chen nodded upon hearing this.

Seeing that Chen Hao is promising now, he doesn't have to worry about himself in the future. The burden on the couple has been reduced a lot, and they no longer work as hard as they used to. If they were willing to leave easily.

"Xiao Hao hasn't been home to see his grandparents for many years, right?" Mother Chen looked at Chen Hao and said with a smile.

"Well, I haven't been back for a long time." Chen Hao nodded, but then he paused and looked at Chen's mother in an instant.

"Mom, your surname is Zhao?" Chen Hao looked surprised, "Grandpa and grandma live in Langfang?"

"This child, why isn't your mother's surname Zhao?" Chen's mother was taken aback when she heard the words, she looked at Chen Hao reproachfully and said, "I haven't gone back for so long, have you forgotten your grandparents?"

"No, it's just..." Chen Hao couldn't laugh or cry, it couldn't be such a coincidence!
"What's wrong?" Father Chen asked suspiciously.

"Nothing, nothing!" Chen Hao shook his head, it should be just a coincidence!
"This child is startled." Mother Chen rolled her eyes and said to Chen Hao.

Chen Hao could only smile apologetically, and then went to watch TV after a quick meal.

What is playing on the TV is CCAV1, Zhao Benshan's "Liu Laogen". Chen Hao is not interested, so he tunes to CCAV2, the financial channel, and he is not interested, so he switches to CCAV3.

Chen Hao stood up excitedly after only one glance, and even bumped into the coffee table in front of the sofa.

"What's the matter? Such a big commotion?" Chen's mother looked at Chen Hao and said, always feeling that her son was acting weird today.

Chen Hao didn't answer, but stared at the TV tightly. The glimpse just now made him breathe out quickly!
