Reborn I am the second generation of stars

Chapter 1305 New Movie

Xu Qian has attracted the attention of the West again, which also makes Warner can't wait to find Xu Qian to cooperate.

Xu Qian is simply a gold mine. His filming of "The Departed Walker" earned Warner a lot of money. Of course, now that this series has been collapsed by Warner, it is very embarrassing.

And now a little-known "King of Comedy" can even open up the western market, which makes others have to recognize Xu Qian's value.

Ma Long said: "Director Xu, you should come out of the rivers and lakes again and make a super movie."

Xu Qiandao: "I'll think about it."

Malone said: "Think about it and give me an answer."

Xu Qian nodded and said, "Okay."

Warner is already very sincere, and Xu Qian is also a little moved, and Xu Qian is indeed at a level of heaven and earth in the domestic market.

As the saying goes, when the water is full, it will overflow, and when the moon is full, it will lose money. Xu Qian has already stood at a turning point of prosperity and decline.

Of course, it is impossible for Xu Qian to decline after prosperity. The reason why some people decline after prosperity, and why they go from the peak to the bottom, is because they are old, their fighting spirit is no longer there, their talents are exhausted, they are out of touch with the times, or they are indulging Because of fame and fortune, all in all, because of all factors, their creative ability declined, and then fell from the peak to the trough.

But this kind of situation doesn't exist for Xu Qian. Xu Qian has mastered the details of a world, can others do what he can?If others lose their fighting spirit, will he?

Obviously, none of these other factors had any influence on him. Xu Qian was just an asshole, a super super super big ass.

The reason why Xu Qian has been developing in the local area and has been committed to making Chinese films is because he knows that his roots are here, and this is his base camp.

No matter how smooth the development in the West, what can it bring to Chinese films?

Ang Lee in another world is awesome, but Xu Qian prefers Zhang Yimou.

What's the use of being too high?
Now Western values ​​are sweeping the world, but are Chinese values ​​really all dross?

Of course not, we are one of the greatest civilizations in the world, and we can even get rid of this one.

China has never been a mediocre country.

In the history of human civilization for more than 6000 years, many great countries have emerged, except China, including (but not limited to) Egypt, Hittite, Assyria, Athens, Sparta, Persia, Macedonia, Rome, Byzantium, Arabia, Khwarad Mo, Mongol Empire, Ottoman, Timur, Mughal, Portugal, Spain, France, Germany, British Empire, and of course, America today.

Most of the countries listed above were once the strongest or tied for the strongest countries in the world, but they are like shooting stars, tearing the night sky, but quickly returning to dust.

As short as ten years, as long as 3 centuries, not only are they no longer the strongest in the world, but they are disgraced and let others slaughter them.

Except China!

In China's 5000-year history (the Liangzhu civilization has been recognized internationally in December 2017), it cannot always be the strongest country in the world. The country of getting down and getting up again!
The Chinese established the first superpower in the history of human civilization - the Han Empire. In the 3rd century AD, the Han Empire suffered civil strife and eventually collapsed, and China was overtaken by the Roman Empire.

But, it's not over yet!In the 7th century AD, the Sui Empire and its successor, the Tang Empire, once again became the most developed and powerful countries in the world. The grass on the grave of Rome was as tall as a person... and finally became Italy, which built a prisoner-of-war camp to lock itself up.

In the 10th century AD, the Great Tang Dynasty, the greatest feudal empire in human history (one of the few), collapsed, and China once again fell into the flames of war.

In just a few decades, the Great Song Dynasty rose from the ruins of the war, while the Arab Empire, which was once equal to the Great Tang Dynasty, has long been wiped out... Its successors fought endlessly for water and oil after a thousand years.

The good times didn't last long. In the 12th century AD, the Northern Song Dynasty was destroyed by the Jin Dynasty. This process was too sudden, like sudden death.

In the 13th century AD, the Yuan Dynasty was established. The greatness of China lies in the fact that it never belonged to a certain nation. It can turn its former enemies into its own relatives. Once again, China has reached the top of the world.And the Byzantine Empire will soon be reduced to dust under the iron hooves of the Ottomans.

The Ming Dynasty defeated the Great Yuan Dynasty, made seven voyages to the West, and conquered Mongolia five times, defeating Timur once again.

Then there was a hundred years of humiliation, we regarded it as being bitten by a dog, we dared to call the sun and the moon to replace the sky under the leadership of the great man, and we quickly recovered, and now we are standing tall among the nations of the world again. Isn’t the country awesome, isn’t such a nation awesome?Isn't such a value awesome?

At Xu Qian's current status, the pursuit of fame and fortune is secondary, because you have done some things, fame and fortune will come naturally, things that should be yours can't get away, things that aren't yours, you can't grab them if you want to. It's hard to catch.

Xu Qian is now known as the symbol of the Chinese entertainment industry, the Big Dipper of the film industry, and the pillar of the sky in the director world. The outside world puts too much hope on him, hoping that he can change his fate against the sky, and hope that he can change his life. The structure of the entire industry, I hope he can promote the development of Chinese films with his own efforts.

He carried the hopes of too many people.

However, Xu Qian is not afraid. People are willing to believe in him and affirm him. This is a very good thing. When a person's ability breaks through the boundaries, he will naturally take on such responsibilities.

Isn’t that the greatest librarian in history a few decades ago? He led the staggering Chinese to stand upright. He launched the torrent of the people, swept all enemies, and shocked the world. one of the people.

Xu Qian wants to learn from his experience. This experience is not to fight alone, but to know how to unite and mobilize the power of the masses. If he wants to promote the development of the entire industry with his own power, it will be very, very, very, very, very very for Chinese films to catch up with Hollywood. Very very difficult.

Xu Qian can't change his fate against the sky even if he is forced to do so.

Xu Qian felt that he should develop talents for the entire industry and do what he could for the industry.

Therefore, Xu Qian agreed to Ma Long's request.

He is now thinking about what movie to shoot.

This film must have something in common between Western values ​​and Chinese values.

This film also needs to have a mass base. It is true that some obscure films can win awards, but the spread is not great, and cultural promotion still needs to rely on commercial films.

For example, "Love of the Big Ship" really opened up Hollywood movies to the world. This movie is really a gods block and kill gods, and Buddhas block and kill Buddhas.

In North America, it is the best. In Italy, known as the birthplace of art, Europe is also invincible. In Southeast Asia, which is known as the back garden of Hong Kong movies, it is also invincible. In Hong Kong, known as the Hollywood of the East, it is also leading the way. In China at that time, it was even better. It was a massacre.

Such movies are a sharp weapon for cultural output.

"comedy."

Xu Qian first determined the type of film he wanted to shoot.

Comedy is popular all over the world. Although people in each country have different points of laughter and cultural differences, a sense of humor is something that is hidden deep in everyone's heart.

In another world, comedy movies like "Three Idiots in Bollywood", "Two Smoking Barrels", and "Ghost in Mask" are all famous in the world.

"Three Idiots in Bollywood" is an Indian movie, "Two Smoking Barrels" is the work of Guy Ritchie, which was later made into Chinese comedy movies "Crazy Stone" and "Grizzly in Disguise" by Ning Hao It is a classic Hollywood movie, and Master Xing's "The Variety Star" is a reference to this movie.

Comedy movies from different countries can all be very popular. What does this show? This shows that comedy movies can eliminate cultural barriers to a certain extent.

Xu Qian intends to choose a comedy movie that can be accepted by both Chinese and Western.

Master Xing's nonsensical comedies are classics, but foreigners don't seem to like it. In fact, Xu Qian wanted to make Master Xing's "Kung Fu".

It can be said to be the most peak film of Master Xing. This is the best film directed by Master Xing independently in Xu Qian's opinion. Master Xing's independent direction started from "Kung Fu Football", then "Kung Fu", "Yangtze River No. [-]" , "Journey to the West Conquering the Demons", "The Mermaid", "The New King of Comedy" and so on.

In terms of the best, it is undoubtedly this "Kung Fu", and the global box office of "Kung Fu" is not bad.

But Xu Qian didn't plan to make "Kung Fu". He planned to make a simpler, easier-to-understand movie, preferably one that everyone can accept.

Secondly, he also wanted to alternate between Chinese and white protagonists. Pure Chinese films are not welcomed by the West, and Western aesthetics are different from Chinese aesthetics.

China is famous for its kung fu superstars all over the world, but now the pure kung fu movies have declined, and kung fu has only become a factor in commercial movies.

Sci-fi movies can have kung fu elements, gunfight movies can have kung fu elements, and romance movies can also use kung fu elements.

With the decline of kung fu movies, there are also kung fu superstars, and now the most internationally influential Chinese actor is Long Ge.

Although Long Ge is old and strong, he is still making kung fu movies, but to be honest, his influence is declining rapidly, and his kung fu movies can only have a little influence in the Chinese market.

Brother Long's famous films back then were also co-operated with the West, and they basically all had a dual-protagonist model.

Apart from kung fu superstars, there are really no movie stars in China who can gain a foothold in the West, and they don't even look up to you. You are a handsome guy in the eyes of Chinese people, but you are ugly in the eyes of Westerners.

"Child."

Xu Qian thought about such an important feature.

Children are cute and innocent. Foreigners boycott grown-up Chinese, so what about children?
This will reduce the resistance of Westerners. At least in Xu Qian's view, children have something in common. They are cute, innocent, innocent and easy to get people's love.

Parents in China love their children, and parents all over the world also love their children. To shoot a comedy movie with children as the main characters.

Moreover, children are the future of a country. Whether it is football or basketball, we must start with children, that is, youth training, because it starts from a high-rise building.

Now Hong Kong movies are very embarrassing, because they are no longer popular, relying on the old actors of the golden decade, and the new actors are still wasting their time and have not become famous at all.

Now Hong Kong movies are really embarrassing.

Everything starts with the children. This is what Xu Qian wants to do now. In fact, he has done this before. For example, he has shot many children's cartoons and many children's TV series.

He even formed a "Happy Boys" group, the members of which come from the male protagonists of "Happy Planet". Every time a "Happy Planet" is filmed, the "Happy Boys" group will increase by one, of course not Unlimited increase, "Happy Boy" can also fly solo, which must respect personal wishes.

Some people can fly solo when their popularity reaches a certain level. Now the most popular "Happy Boy" is "Li Yang" who plays Ding Kaile. After all, he is the first generation and the most popular "Happy Boy".

In fact, the first "Happy Planet" produced several child stars, polyhedron, lotus paste buns, ice lemons and Dongfang teacher are all very popular.

These people are the future of the film and television industry. Although child stars may not be able to grow up, once they grow up, it will be no small matter.

The top talents can only be selected if the base of talents is large. This principle is applicable to all walks of life. The most typical is football. There are only a few registered professional players. It is very, very, very, very, very, very, very very difficult to select high-end talents. difficult.

"So what movie to choose?"

Xu Qian fell into thinking.

Comedy movies, there are actually many choices for comedy movies with children as the protagonist.

"Diary of a Wimpy Kid"?
"Diary of a Wimpy Kid" is a comedy produced by [-]th Century Fox Film Company in the United States.

The film tells the story of Greg Heffley officially entering the first year of junior high school and starting his middle school life full of difficulties and obstacles but full of fun.

A little kid is a stage that everyone goes through. In this stage, it is full of all kinds of troubles, and the hero of this movie is such a little kid who is in trouble. He is a child who has just entered junior high school. In order to prevent him from developing in the future, people pestered him to ask him stories about his childhood, so he started to write a diary to record his life, and wanted to pass it on to people as an autobiography in the future.

Xu Qian believes that "Diary of a Wimpy Kid" is a hilarious comedy movie. While hilarious, it can also remind people of their thoughts when they were still a kid. These thoughts may be good or bad, but they are all Part of our growth path is that they make up our colorful childhood.

"Little Rascal Nikolai is also good."

The movie is based on the novel of the same name. Little Nicholas is loved by his parents and has fun with a bunch of friends at school.One day, Nicholas' mother suggested that his father invite the boss and his wife to have dinner at home in order to win the favor of the boss and raise the salary; but what little Nicholas heard and observed made him think that his parents wanted to have a little brother instead of him. The frustrated little Nicholas asked his friends for help, and everyone rushed to give him a bunch of suggestions, including sending flowers, cleaning up, and even finding criminals to adopt his younger brother and other absurd methods. When I came to visit the school, the class changed to a strict substitute teacher.

"Second Blood is also good."

""Little Sun's Dream" is also good."

"The Home of a Stray Dog is also good."

. . . . . . . . . . . .

Numerous classic children's movies appeared in Xu Qian's mind, and he even thought of many animated movies, such as "Robot Story", "Kung Fu Panda", etc. Of course, the main characters of animated movies are animals, and children like this.

Finally, Xu Qian thought about a movie he watched when he was a child. It was also a classic children's movie, which was once popular all over the world. What's more, this movie is still a series of movies, which has great potential to be tapped.

Many people know this movie, his name is "Baby Wisdom Star", or there is another more familiar name-"Home Alone".
