But this time, Steve Kevin's new film has once again sent him an invitation.
And now Steve Kevin, compared with two years ago, the status is different.
The winner of the Oscar, the major shareholder of MGM Films, and the boss of Chenxi Films are all titles. If anyone gets the title of the Hong Kong entertainment industry, it is a dimensionality reduction blow.
Being able to receive such a big man is also a recognition of his status in the arena.
Yuan Heping hurriedly instructed his two favorite apprentices to prepare the vehicle in advance, and one day later, he went to the airport with them to receive Steve Kevin.
Chapter 146
Yuan Heping is waiting for the arrival of Steve Kevin.
On the other hand, Jackie Chan, who has always wanted to enter the international market, especially the American market, decided to find Yuan Heping after hearing the news.
...
"Big Brother, I heard that you have some friendship with Director Steve Kevin. I wonder if you can introduce it."
In Yuan Heping's residence, Jackie Chan is a big brother, and he is almost dressed.
In fact, before the release of Snake Shaped Hands, although Yuan Heping and him were brothers in terms of seniority, there was really no friendship between the two sides.
But at that time, Jackie Chan was at a low point in his career.
It was Yuan Heping who hand-picked Jackie Chan to star in the first film he directed, the Snake Shaped Hand, through this different action comedy film that combines the kung fu of a hard bridge and a hard horse with a witty and humorous action design.
Created a unique kung fu comedy trend, so that Jackie Chan soared and became popular all over Hong Kong.
For Jackie Chan's kindness, there is no need to mention more.
Only know that in the future, in countless interviews, Jackie Chan has expressed respect and gratitude to Yuan Heping, the big master.
"Skin monkey, how did you know this news?"
Looking at Jackie Chan who was attentively offering tea, Yuan Heping rubbed his head and asked directly.
Jackie Chan smiled and handed the tea in his hand. After Yuan Heping took the tea and agreed to his request, he ran to the side and said without a formality:
"It was Mr. Zou who got the news. He knew about my relationship with you, so I asked you to come and beg you directly."
Yuan Heping snorted.
"Sure enough, it's an old fox. He doesn't give me any benefits, he just wants to prostitute my contacts for nothing."
"That's definitely not possible, Mr. Zou is not such a person."
"Master, if I can get on line with Director Steve Kevin, Mr. Zou said, it will double the current business volume of Yuanjiaban."
Hearing Jackie Chan's words, Yuan Heping nodded.
As the leader of the class, his task is to find jobs everywhere, so that everyone in the Yuan family can at least eat.
Judging by the abilities of the members of the Yuan family, among the Hong Kong dragon and tiger martial artists, the income is definitely not low.
Therefore, there is not so much work.
And Zou Wenhuai's promise was undoubtedly that Yuan Jiaban would be able to eat even if he didn't go to the United States to open up the market.
"Then you can go with me, but let's say in advance, I don't know if Director Steve Kevin knows you, and if you can get along with him."
"Hey, leave it to me."
Before Jackie Chan came, he asked his friends to have a good understanding of Steve Kevin's hobbies. I have to say that men's hobbies are always the same sometimes.
Women, food, and so on.
And in this regard, Steve Kevin has a very good reputation. Although he is a playboy, the women around him have been very richly rewarded.
At present, the three women recognized in Hollywood who have a relationship with Steve Kevin have all been promoted to first-line female stars in the industry through Steve Kevin's films.
In the industry, I don't know how many female stars want to catch up on Steve Kevin's line.
If Jackie Chan can help Hong Kong female stars match up, I don't know how much they will thank Jackie Chan.
........
A day later, Kevin got off the plane with his two bodyguards.
"Director Steve Kevin, here, here."
All the way, Kevin saw a familiar face, jumping up and down, shouting his name.
With two bodyguards, Kevin walked towards the place where Jackie Chan was.
Beside Jackie Chan, it was Yuan Heping who came to pick up Kevin.
Thanks to the small size of Hong Kong, Hong Kong people can usually meet celebrities almost every day, and it has long been no surprise.
Although Jackie Chan appeared at the airport, only a few fans came to sign autographs.
At this time, no one came up to disturb.
The distance of hundreds of meters passed in a few seconds.
As soon as they met, Jackie Chan stepped forward and introduced himself in English with great interest.
"Hello, I'm Jack Chen, the junior brother of Senior Brother Yuan Heping."
"Speak Cantonese, I can speak Cantonese."
After many years, when he returned to China's territory, Kevin was really full of emotion.
Facing Jackie Chan's self-introduction, Kevin, who was in high spirits, even spoke Cantonese directly.
"Hello, my Chinese name is Jackie Chan."
Jackie Chan followed Kevin's words and introduced himself in Cantonese.
Although he wanted something from Steve Kevin, after all, he was also a very proud person, and it was impossible to play any kind of servility.
He wanted to try and be friends with Steve Kevin.
I just don't know if Steve Kevin, a ghost, is the same as some unqualified ghosts.
Jackie Chan, who has traveled to Hollywood, deeply knows how serious the discrimination against Chinese there is. If Steve Kevin is that kind of person, then all his plans will go bankrupt.
Don't worry about being friends today.
"I know you, Kung Fu star, Jackie Chan."
Kevin smiled happily. This kind of acquaintance is much more pleasing to the eye than Americans.
"Let's find a place to eat first, I've been wanting to eat authentic Hong Kong food for a long time."
When we landed, it was more than ten o'clock in the morning, and it was time for dinner.
Kevin was a little hungry, and after a simple chat with Jackie Chan, he couldn't wait to pull them and prepare to have a good meal.
Looking at the anxious Kevin, Jackie Chan rubbed his nose.
"Why do you feel that this guy is a bit like a Chinese, and he rushes to eat as soon as he arrives."
......
In a high-end Hong Kong-style tea restaurant.
The round table in the box is covered with dozens of small plates of various sizes.
The two bodyguards and the other two apprentices brought by Yuan Heping were eating outside, leaving Jackie Chan, Yuan Hepin and Kevin in the box.
"This shrimp dumpling is good and delicious."
After stuffing himself with a few shrimp dumplings in a row, Kevin slowed down his movements and chatted with Jackie Chan and Yuan Heping.
"Yuan Wuzhi, I came here specifically to find you. No one in Hollywood can complete the action design of my new movie."
"Only you can complete this task. I wonder if you have time next?"
Yuan Heping pretended to be calm, nodded and said:
"Director Kevin warmly invited me, and I naturally couldn't refuse it."
Yan Bi, I was afraid that the Chinese words would be a bit confusing, so I hurriedly continued to add:
"I mean, I am willing to accept your invitation."
Steve Kevin flew to Hong Kong specifically to invite him to take part in the shooting of his new film, what a face to say.
Yuan Heping could imagine that even twenty years later, this matter could be used as his bragging rights.
No way, the aura on Steve Kevin is too dazzling.
If the ordinary people in Hong Kong may not know him, then in the entertainment circle in Hong Kong, the name Steve Kevin can be said to be familiar.
No one knows, no one knows.
Chapter 147 Give Yuan Heping a Favor
Of course, Steve Kevin's reputation in Hong Kong is not without his fueling.
On his trip to the United States, he brought many members of the Yuan family.
When they came back, these people bragged wildly, and at the same time told fellow dragon and tiger martial artist Steve Kevin how he was in Hollywood.
In disguise, he raised Yuan Heping's status.
Thanks to them, Steve Kevin's reputation in the Hong Kong entertainment industry is no less than that of Spielberg.
Kevin nodded, not surprised by his choice, and then said the second thing.
"One more thing, my Chenxi Film Company, the future movie plan needs a lot of martial arts. I hope to collect a twenty to thirty martial arts team and a dragon and tiger martial arts team through your contacts."
"I guarantee that the annual salary of the martial arts action instructor is not less than 100,000 US dollars, and the annual salary of other martial arts instructors who cannot be named is also not less than 30,000 US dollars."
"And their wages will increase year by year as prices rise."
A team of 20 to 30 people, of which Kevin is going to promote five to eight of the best dragon and tiger martial arts masters, and take the title of martial arts action coach, a position that Hollywood does not have.
Of course, this position is not so fixed. Whoever performs well will get the next movie.
Kevin's meaning is very simple, the annual salary of $30,000 is guaranteed, which directly reaches the level of the American middle class.
As for why they gave so much money, I can only say that they are worth the price.
In fact, the profession of martial arts action instruction was originally created in Hong Kong. It was not until the release of The Matrix in history that it attracted the attention of Hollywood.
Hollywood directors found that some action scenes in the movie became much better after having martial arts action guidance from Hong Kong.
The original Hollywood action scenes, in front of this group of Hong Kong martial artists, seem to have suffered a dimensionality reduction blow.
When the two action scenes were compared, Americans suddenly discovered that those movies without martial arts, how come the action scenes are so ugly.
Since then, the profession of martial arts action coaching has always been a must for any big production that involves action scenes.
Of course, with the development of technology, it is another matter for Hollywood in the future to directly use technology to steal these martial arts moves.
This point, Jet Li once mentioned in the media, the Americans offered a high price to thoroughly record and copy all his actions, but he refused.
These all point to a future where Hollywood realizes how important martial arts action instruction is in movies.
Kevin wants to introduce this profession in advance to reduce the dimension of Hollywood action dramas.
Superhero movies are supposed to be more exciting.
As for the future, countless directors and filmmakers criticize superheroes.
In Kevin's view, on the one hand, it is true that they have little connotation.
But on the other hand, it is not sour.
Superhero movies have monopolized the market, and other movies have failed miserably against superhero movies.
This is the most real thing, and it is also the final choice of the audience.
Hearing the price quoted by Kevin, on the one hand, Yuan Heping was moved.
On the other hand, he realized, this was actually a big problem.
The news spread, and I don't know how many dragon and tiger martial artists came to the door, begging him to recommend himself to Steve Kevin.
If you don't give it, you will undoubtedly offend others.
If you give it, people who don't get it will also have an opinion.
