Exploiting Hollywood 1980.

Chapter 760 Their system has merits
Jack Valenti once again came to the other side of the Pacific Ocean. For the market here, Hollywood's main idea now is not to make money, but to cultivate the market.

As long as they introduce ten Hollywood movies on the agreement every year, they will cultivate a crowd of young people who like to watch movies.When the economic development here is effective, Hollywood will have another big market.

"Good Job, Ronald. At the meeting, you spoke highly of the long-arc halogen lamps made here, and said that Hollywood and the film industry here are learning from each other. It made the leaders laugh and was very happy. We The treatment received this year is much better than before.

Their foreign exchange is limited, but this year they will no longer import those old movies, and start to pay attention to new movies released two or three years ago.We're making good progress this time. "

"You are right, Mr. Valenti. I think they are really a nation suitable for film art. If you look at the imported Hollywood movies, they also use actors to dub. The pursuit is consistent with the original text.

The voice actor for each role also strives to be consistent with the original actor's personality.

They are a refined nation nourished by a profound culture.It's completely different from those stupid people in the Suwei League.Those Russians will only ask one person to translate everyone's lines at the same time, and record them into voice-overs simultaneously. "

"Haha, what you said is right. After continuing to participate in the activities arranged by the host tomorrow, you can go to Xujiahui to see your lighting factory."

Ronald accompanied Jack Valenti, and talked with the leader of the other side for several days, and finally achieved the effect Valenti wanted to achieve.

Most of the time, Ronald is only used as a mascot to accompany the guests, and only sometimes when the artist representatives are required to speak, he will say some flattering words, which has a very good effect.

The leader liked Ronald very much, and learned about Ronald's background through translation. After knowing that he was an orphan, he repeatedly praised Ronald as a model of self-struggle.But it also points out that if it is here, the government will definitely arrange the life of the descendants of the veterans, instead of letting the aunt be a waiter to support them.

What Ronald is most satisfied with is eating a lot of authentic Chinese food.The chefs of foreign-related restaurants and restaurants leading banquets are satisfactory.

On the last day, Ronald went to visit the Forbidden City Museum with Valenti and his group according to the arrangement of the host.The leader had other business and did not come with him.Ronald and the others came to the Forbidden City with an interpreter.

At the gate of the Forbidden City, Ronald and Valenti were stopped by someone, telling them that ordinary tourists are not allowed to enter because there is a film shooting today, and if they want to visit the Forbidden City, they must wait until the filming is completed before coming back.

The translator calmly took out a letter of introduction with the official seal on it, and the other party let them in after reading it.

"It turns out that they are guests from the bureau. Tell me earlier." The other party began to move the wooden railings and let them in.

Ronald asked the translator, only to be told that during this period, the Italian leftist director Bertolucci was using the real scene of the Forbidden City to film "The Last Emperor".Ronald couldn't help but think of Jeremy Thomas whom he had seen in London, as if this independent producer meant to film the story of the last emperor.

It seems that he did a good job, even the Forbidden City was lent to him to shoot the real scene.

"Alas...you are not with them, you cannot enter. They? They have a letter of introduction from the bureau, do you have one? Are you an actor? Where is your pass? Without a pass, you can't go in. Have you seen Lenin's pass? ?”

Ronald had already entered the Forbidden City far away, when he heard the guard quarreled with another foreigner, who seemed to understand no Chinese, and the two of them were very anxious to talk to each other.

Ronald motioned for the translator to help and understand the situation.

"He said he is the British Cinema, Peter O'Toole is the actor of the crew, look. It doesn't seem like a lie." The translator chatted with the foreigner for a few words, and said to the guard.

"Hey, how do we understand this? The names of foreigners are so complicated that we can't remember them." The guard disagreed. Mix in."

"I'm really an actor. Have you seen Lawrence of Arabia? I still have a scene to shoot today."

"No, no, no, don't talk about you, the queen of Britain came a while ago, and you can't enter. This is filming, who is to blame if it is delayed?"

Seeing that the translation was still delayed, Ronald took two steps forward.

The foreigner who was stopped outside saw Ronald wearing a leather jacket, who was obviously a Westerner. He covered the sun with his hands and looked, and then called out, "Ronald, is that you? I It's Peter. You tell them, I still have shots today."

"Peter? Mr. O'Toole?" Ronald recognized the other party, and quickly called Jack Valentine to come forward. Several people testified to the guard that this was indeed a professional actor.

Peter O'Toole pushes a bicycle, "In this movie, the last emperor learns to ride a bicycle. In order to ride a bicycle, he saw off all the thresholds of the Forbidden City."

The two chatted about the past when they were filming "Supergirl" on the Pinewood studio, and walked in together.

Walking into the Forbidden City, the squares of the three main halls inside are very lively, many extras are sitting on the ground to make up, there are thousands of people.

They lined up in an orderly manner, and when it was their turn, they went forward to put on makeup and wear wigs.

"It's a nation that abides by order. It would be great if Hollywood had such obedient extras." Ronald also joked with Peter O'Toole.

"It's really good, and their performances are also good. I talked to a supporting actor who played a beggar. He is still an actor with decades of theater experience."

The morning sun was very bright. In the corner of the square in the Forbidden City, under a camera boom, a man who looked like a director, wearing an old-fashioned top hat, was giving a speech to three main actors of Chinese descent.

"When the time comes, you will come out of that position. At this time, the group performers will pay tribute to you. Zun Long, don't show any reaction to them. Then follow your two wives and come out generously..."

"Is this the director Bertolucci?" Ronald asked in a low voice.

"It's him, listen, he's about to switch to Italian," Peter O'Toole replied.

Sure enough, Bertolucci's English was slow and heavily accented. Seeing that several leading actors had difficulty understanding, he finally switched to Italian and a translator conveyed it.

Ronald stood still. He didn't particularly like Bertolucci's directing method where every action, expression, and detail was made to be performed by the actors according to their own prescribed actions.

This is tantamount to depriving the actors of their play space and treating them as puppets.

"I'll introduce you later." Peter O'Toole knew that once Bertolucci started to speak, it was common for half an hour to an hour.He makes films very slowly, carefully crafted, and refuses to compromise on any detail.

Even the scene where the Empress Dowager Cixi dies and the little emperor enters the palace has hired real lamas, because they cannot be touched by women, and specially hired male make-up and costume artists to serve them.

"Forget it, I think Director Bertolucci is very busy, let's just look around." Ronald stopped O'Toole from thinking, he didn't want to wait on the set for an hour, just listening to these trivial things .

Valenti still has to wait here to chat with Bertolucci about the details of his co-shooting. Ronald left him the translator and wandered around the Palace Museum by himself.

Because of the shooting, many exhibition halls were not open. Ronald walked around for a long time, feeling bored, ran out, found a taxi by himself, and went to the Temple of Heaven and the Summer Palace.

The driver saw Ronald, a foreigner who could speak Chinese, and thought he was an international student, so he chatted with him about the general trend of the world, such as the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, so that Ronald fully understood the quality of the citizens of a big country, and even the taxi driver was proficient in international Politics, D.C. drivers don't have that caliber.

"Ronald, where have you been?"

In the evening, Ronald returned to the Jianguo Hotel, and Jack Valenti finally found him, "Your movie was favored by the leaders, and it was specially added to the introduction list for next year."

"Ah? All I shoot are commercial films, will they also import them?" Ronald was very surprised. All the films he made were catering to American audiences. Why would they import them here? Shouldn't they find some artistic ones? movie?When the leaders held a meeting before, they also specifically mentioned Oscar-winning movies.The artistic level of their Oscar-winning films is quite recognized.

"Yes, in several of your films, they plan to introduce 'breakdancing'. You see, this is their list of Hollywood movies to be introduced. This is breakdancing."

After translating, show Ronald a list in Chinese, and point to the Chinese name of the last movie on the form, telling him that this is Ronald's movie.

Ronald was even more surprised. It would be okay if other films were introduced. Breakdance is a low-cost dance film. How could the other party like it?Was it a promotion for the breakdancing demo at the closing ceremony of the Olympics?

"The film reflects the racial contradictions in America, the contradiction between rich and poor...it reflects the dilapidation of the slums in the big city of Los Angeles...it reflects the blacks at the bottom of America, and the poor, they are discriminated against by the upper class, and they encounter unfair treatment. It is a movie that exposes the intensification of social contradictions in America, and it is a movie that deeply reflects the social reality."

Ronald's eyes fell to the column of reasons for the introduction below.

"Puchi..." Ronald almost couldn't hold it back. When I was filming, I never thought about this, but I just thought of a reason to let them dance.

"Will my movie also be dubbed?" Ronald remembered the dubbed version he saw in his dream.

The translator looked at the document, "Yes, this movie should be assigned to the translation studio in Xujiahui."

"Thank you, thank you leaders for your concern. I very much hope that my movie can be seen by the people of your country." Ronald said to the translator.

"Maybe it's just because the copy price given by Cannon Pictures is relatively low. The seven major studios don't want to sell the films of the last two years at such a low price." After the translator left, Jack Valenti and Luo Nader stated his speculation.

"That's good, at least I can say that my movie can be seen by people on the far side of the Pacific Ocean."

A day later, Jack Valenti and Ronald flew to Hongqiao again, and went to the urban area to see the filming of the film "Empire of the Sun" by the great Hollywood director Spielberg on the Bund.

With the last emperor, the cooperation was very smooth with the care of the leaders.The Xujiahui Studio is another place. As the president of the Film Association, he is also obliged to check it out.

Under the Waibaidu Bridge, the original white dividing line on the road was blackened with paint, and the barbed wire fence set up by foreigners to separate the concession from the Chinese territory was erected again.

Ronald came to the bank of the Suzhou River with Jack Valenti in the morning, watching Spielberg from a distance, talking to a thirteen or fourteen-year-old actor in a red uniform.

"Chris, you're going to start here, and the refugees from behind start rushing towards you, and you don't see them, so it's going to be a mix of surprise and nervousness, understand?"

"Understood, I didn't know what happened, so I was taken aback by the refugees rushing from behind." The child was a little thin, but he seemed to have good understanding and aura.

Ronald was standing on the edge of a large circle of hemp rope around the filming location.

Residents here are very curious about a large group of foreigners filming.The hemp rope is surrounded by three inner and outer layers, and there are people in uniform guarding the hemp rope.

"Steven and Bertolucci also tell plays, but their methods are very different." Ronald thought to himself.As a director, I seldom have the opportunity to observe other directors' crews live, but actors have many opportunities to see the methods of different directors.

Bertolucci stipulated all the details of the performance in every detail, while Spielberg inspired the actors, told them more about the ins and outs and atmosphere of the scene, and let the actors figure out what kind of performance they would have method.

"Very good, that's it, remember this feeling." The child Spielberg was very satisfied with his understanding, and asked him to make a few facial expressions, and then waved for the makeup artist to come over.

A hairstylist got a wig to put on the kid, and another makeup artist came up and painted dirt on the kid's teeth.

Spielberg started to pick up the electric speaker again, and started shouting to the surrounding Chinese crowd, "We will follow the order given to you by the assistant director, and now come and go."

A translator translated Spielberg's order into Chinese.Ronald discovered that it was Xiao Yan, the son of Lao Yan, his partner in the lightning lamp factory.

And the one who was demonstrating the running route to the group performers was the female director I met last time, Deputy Director Huang.

It seems that the two people that Ronald introduced to Spielberg, he used them very well, and now they are working as assistants on the crew.

"Hi, are you American or British?" An old man watching the scene on the road asked Ronald in pure English.

Seeing that he could speak English, Ronald was a little kind, gave him a Chinese cigarette brought from the Forbidden City, and lit him with a match.

"We are American." Ronald asked him, pointing to the actors dressed as Japanese military officers in the ensemble, "Do you hate little Japs? They come here again in military uniforms, do you feel bad?"

"Actually, when I started the war, I was 24 years old. The scene I saw that day was the same as now. Hey, it's really a very bad group. But now it's making movies. I also often watch Hollywood movies. "

Ronald chatted with the old man for a while, but didn't bother Spielberg.

On the contrary, the translator Xiaoyan had sharp eyes. When he saw Ronald standing outside the crew, he immediately waved to himself, and then turned around and whispered in Spielberg's ear.

"Hey, Ronald, Mr. Valenti." Wearing a baseball cap with "Empire of the Sun" on it, Spielberg walked over a few steps to meet Jack Valenti and Luo who were brought into the shooting circle by Xiaoyan. Nader said hello with a hug.

"We are here to cheer you on, don't worry about us, don't disturb your work." Jack Valenti knew that the director was very busy on the set, so he asked Spielberg to go to the filming first.

"It's okay, Ronald is also a good player, and he can just help me."

"Of course, I can help you maintain the order of the group performance." Ronald laughed.

There was a long wait for the official shoot, and the little kid who played the main character, Jim, started running on the road to warm up.And he kept breathing heavily, squatting down, standing up straight, deliberately making himself a little out of breath.

"Where did you find such an actor? He's a genius? Did he come up with a way to deal with it?" Ronald was surprised. This kind of physical movement to simulate the panting caused by emotions is a very clever performance Skill.

Ordinary viewers can't tell whether you are tired from running or because you were nervous when you saw the Japanese army.

"He learned it himself from older actors, John Malkovich taught him." Spielberg laughs.

"You are really good at training child actors." Jack Valenti also lamented that Spielberg is a very good director in Hollywood who is good at training child actors.

"No, I'm just lucky, and I often pick the most talented kids. I picked Christian out of more than 4000 kids. He happens to be of Welsh descent, and has the same background as the protagonist."

"Hmm..." Ronald secretly remembered that this is a good way for the director to deal with the problem.It is almost impossible to teach children to act.Spielberg's advantage over other directors is that he can select suitable actors from the widest range.

At this time, Deputy Director Huang came to talk to Spielberg again. Ronald only nodded his head to greet her, and Deputy Director Huang took Xiaoyan to report to Spielberg.

"Soldiers who act as soldiers don't understand how to perform after being shot. The way we perform here is different from Hollywood."

It turned out that apart from a few actors of Japanese descent, the others were ensemble performances by soldiers from the army. They didn't know how to perform, but they followed the director's instructions and learned a lot.

"Ha, our Hollywood actors do die differently from other places. Let me show you, only Hollywood actors die like this."

Spielberg put his hands on his chest, then swayed from side to side, struggling for two seconds before collapsing.

"He still wanted to live, so even though he was shot and wounded on the ground, he still tried his best to crawl out of the street and to the side, without being discovered by the Japanese army." Spielberg was on the ground again, holding one hand The feet struggled to make a crawling motion.

"Understood? You have a try and let Huang see."

Spielberg was busy again, and Ronald hid in the monitor behind the camera, out of the way.

"Attention all departments, Action!" Spielberg was busy for more than half an hour, and finally straightened out all the departments, and then ordered to start shooting.

"Start shooting! Start shooting! Start shooting!" Assistant Director Huang's electric speaker was louder than Spielberg's, and she repeated Spielberg's order in Chinese. Most people on the scene could only understand her command in Chinese.

The little actor named Christian approached from the distance of the road, and the Japanese army behind him was speeding up. When he met the little actor, he made a frightened expression, and then accelerated to the side of the road.

"Cut!" After Spielberg stopped, he also walked to the monitor.The new director's monitor is connected to a video recorder, which can record the scene on videotape and then show it to the director.

"Very well, let's move on to the next shot." Spielberg was satisfied.After Xiaoyan translated his order and passed it on, everyone applauded.

Filming continued until sunset in the afternoon, and the scheduled shooting time was over.The rush hour of getting off work began to arrive, and many people were rushing home on bicycles. The blocked intersections were about to be unblocked, and only the ordinary people who watched the excitement still formed a circle.

Ronald helped Spielberg, directed the extras to finish work, and then began to dismantle the barbed wire fence to restore the smooth flow of traffic on the Waibaidu Bridge.

"Hi, are you reading any comics?" Spielberg was tired after a day of filming. He saw a child reading a comic and happily chatted with her.

When Ronald looked at the cover, it was a big black and white cat in a police uniform.

"Captain Black Cat, Captain Black Cat", Xiao Yan came over to explain to Spielberg.

"Black Cat Sheriff, is he a superhero? Huh?"

Spielberg likes children very much. He has been separated from his son for more than a month in order to make this movie, and he sees children with a very caring appearance.

"Well", the kid was a little shy chatting with foreigners and ran away.

Hahaha, everyone burst into laughter.

In the evening, director Xu of the Xujiahui Film Factory hosted a banquet for his colleagues in Hollywood.Because tomorrow is a day off, we will go to the outskirts of Qingpu to continue filming, so Spielberg also went to a banquet with several actors, Ronald, Valenti and others.

In the restaurant of the movie studio, several round tables were set up to entertain the "Empire of the Sun" crew.Director Xu is well-informed and knows Spielberg's status in Hollywood.

This time he chose to adapt the novel "Empire of the Sun", which tells about the magical experience of the child Jim, who was imprisoned in a concentration camp by the Japanese army after the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941.

Jim is a pampered child who likes airplanes. On the eve of Pearl Harbor, he accidentally discovered the Japanese Zero plane crashed in Xujiahui, and learned the news that the Japanese army would attack the concession.

When fleeing, he was separated from his parents and was caught by the Japanese army. He raised his hands and surrendered to the Japanese army.After going through hardships in the concentration camp, the P51 Mustang fighter jets of the US military attacked the concentration camp where foreign nationals were held.

Jim found the food dropped by the U.S. Army, surrendered to the U.S. Army, and finally reunited with his parents.

Director Xu understands that Spielberg is aiming at the Oscars when he shoots this kind of epic movie.It happened to form a competitive situation with the "Last Emperor" who was filmed in the Forbidden City.Both films have the gimmick of being the first to enter the live-action shooting here, and both are epic films, both of which are adaptations of best-selling personal autobiography.

This competition is also related to the direction of competition between the two film studios in the north and the south, so director Xu attaches great importance to it.Strive to ensure that everything is satisfactory to Spielberg.

"That is the best ensemble performer I have ever seen. It is very good. I always feel that your technical strength is not inferior to that of Hollywood." Spielberg, who is a genius, began to praise Xu Jiahui.

"Hahaha, just now the leader of the ministry also called, saying that Ronald said the same thing. We are still not far behind the world's advanced level in some aspects."

At this time, Ronald was chatting with John Malkovich, who played an American businessman at the same table.Malkovich asked Ronald if he knew how to say Crazy in Chinese.

"Uh...maybe it's crazy?"

"You're not right. I learned it from my Chinese teacher. My name is Shen... Jing... Bing..."

"Ah... Puchi..." Ronald laughed.

The young actors next to him didn't know what was going on, but they were infected by Ronald's smile and laughed with him.

"What's your name? I think you did a great job."

"My name is Christian, Christian Bale." The slightly thin male protagonist introduced himself to Ronald, "I like your Top Gun very much."

"I like it too. I like this kind of war movie the most." Another little fat actor, not to be outdone, put on an old-fashioned look, rushing to talk to Ronald.

"I like the movie you like me very much. What's your name?" Ronald also felt very interesting when he was with this group of child actors.

"Call me Ben, Ben Stiller." The little fat man looked proud, "Let me tell you, actors are actually a bit narcissistic. Many actors in our crew who play soldiers are very proud after the previous training. Ego Get big, as if they were actual combat veterans.

I want to be a director like you in the future, and I want to direct a movie that satirizes these self-righteous actors. "

"Oh, very interesting, I'll wait and see."

At this time, Spielberg finished chatting with Director Xu and returned to his seat at the table.

"Director Spielberg, please try this steamed bun. This is made by a chef we borrowed from Lvbolang. The Queen of Britain came and tasted it at their place." Xiaoyan enthusiastically introduced to Spielberg new dishes.

"Ha, I'm filming here, that's what's wrong. I don't know what I ate, and now I have some mouth ulcers. It's not good for a long time. It hurts when I eat."

Spielberg, more casual in front of Ronald, began to complain about the difficult conditions.The main thing is that I am not used to Chinese food.

"Director Huang, Xiao Yan, go and ask if you have any tortoise jelly. Bring some to Director Spielberg. He has some... that..." Ronald covered his mouth and gestured to them.

"Fire?"

"Ah, yes, get angry."

"I'll ask the kitchen master to serve some." Xiaoyan went to arrange.

"Director Luo, I'm also making a movie now." Assistant Director Huang said the good news to Ronald with a smile.

"Oh, congratulations, I don't know what type it is?"

"It's a women's movie. I watched some of the videos you sent. A lot of movies in Hollywood are very interesting. I like Cameron's 'Terminator'. I was inspired by the power of women there, so I made a movie. This is a movie that reflects opera actors. In our operas, there is a kind of female actors playing male roles in reverse, I think it is very interesting.”

"Okay, do you have a copy? I'd love to see your work."

At this time, Xiaoyan brought a waiter with him and brought several bowls of black jelly-like desserts.Bring it to Spielberg's table.

"Steven, try this, it's good for your mouth sores."

Spielberg tried it with a spoon, and found that it was cool after eating, as if the ulcer felt better, so he quickly gave a thumbs up, "It seems to have some effect, what is this called?"

"Turtle jelly, bring another bowl to the director."

……

In the evening, Ronald sent Spielberg back to the Huating Hotel to rest, and went out to find Deputy Director Huang and Xiao Yan, and went to the small screening hall of the film studio to watch Director Huang's works.

After the studio's logo was passed, a title of "Human and Ghost Love" written with a brush appeared on the screen, and then three bowls of paint, white, black and red, were placed on the table, and a heroic actress sat on the screen. In front of the mirror, paint yourself with three kinds of paints.

"This is?" Ronald felt a little familiar with this art form.

"It's called Hualian. This opera actor is playing the role of Zhong Kui in myths and legends, who specializes in catching ghosts. She is playing Zhong Kui's married sister, but she is not married because of her career."

Ronald watched it with great interest. The story of the whole movie is not smooth, but the various techniques and metaphors are obviously influenced by Hollywood.

"I saw a very good female film, from a female perspective, and performed a female story." After the screening, Ronald congratulated Director Huang.

"Is the one who plays Zhong Kui really the heroine? Those opera performances seem to require a long time of training to achieve." Ronald felt that those movements were even better than the actors in the dance movie he had just finished filming. There must be a level.

"No, it was performed by real opera actors, and it is also the prototype of this story."

Ronald congratulated Director Huang, saying that this kind of movie is also very rare in Hollywood.

"If there's a chance, it'd be nice to see it in America."

"What movie, it's showing in America?"

A middle-aged man wearing black-rimmed glasses approached from behind and asked Director Huang.

"Ah, Director Xie, why are you here?"

"Let me take a look at your debut novel. What's the problem? You were also brought out by me."

"I haven't introduced you yet. This is my teacher, Director Xie. This is Director Luo from Hollywood."

"Hello, Director Xie." Ronald shook hands with the middle-aged director.

"You are the one who sent Xiao Huang the latest videotape? Thank you, we have to borrow copies from Xiangjiang, and many of them are outdated."

"Where, Xiaoyan, Director Huang and I are good friends at first sight."

"Making a film is the most troublesome thing, and you have to be careful everywhere. You gave her a lot of opportunities to learn from the big Hollywood directors.

I always say that making a film is like scooping up water with your hands. If the gap between your fingers is a little bigger, it will leak.A little sloppy here, a little leaky there, and by the time you serve it up for the audience, all the good stuff has already been leaked.

So I always ask them to learn more. "

The two exchanged a few words and chatted about artistic creation. Assistant Director Huang interjected, "My teacher is shooting a big work. Like 'Empire of the Sun', the locations are all in Qingpu. Do you want to go and see it? ?”

……

"I heard that Director Xie is their best director of commercial films, and the box office is the highest every time. The male and female leads often win their Oscars, yes... it's called the Golden Rooster Award."

On the second day, Ronald and Spielberg went to the location in Qingpu together, and accompanied them to check the set of the concentration camp, the airstrip, the model aircraft and other facilities used for shooting.

Spielberg's team is the most professional in Hollywood, and he has no problems.

At this time Ronald proposed that he would visit the filming of his counterparts in Xujiahui Film Factory.

Spielberg's ulcer was completely healed after taking Guiling Jelly, and he became interested in the mysterious East, so he and Ronald went to see Director Xie's location in Qingpu.

The outdoor scene of this crew is even more magnificent than "Empire of the Sun".An ancient road in a quaint small town is copied as a whole. The bluestone slabs on it have both an antique charm and an ancient splicing method. Even the moss on it is well restored.

Ronald found the problem, he knelt down to look at the material.

There seems to be no difference between this and the real bluestone slab. It has texture and is properly aged. Even the light, shade and color of the moss can be truly reproduced in the camera.

"How did this happen?" Ronald didn't understand.

"I don't know, it's really amazing, I have to ask, this kind of technology doesn't exist in Hollywood."

Two Hollywood directors ran to the scene, found Xiaoyan, took them to Director Xie's residence, and asked him who the props on Qingshiban Road were, and they had to ask for advice.

Ronald even had the idea of ​​poaching people. If the production technology of this prop can be introduced to Hollywood, it would be another small business for him.In the future, for the crews shooting period dramas, their own unique skills will definitely be the first choice.

"You ask me who made the props on Qingshiban Road?" Director Xie was chatting with two protagonists, a man and a woman, about creation.I heard Ronald ask their questions.

"Yeah, we don't have this kind of technology in Hollywood." Ronald thought to himself, Director Xie deserves to have no gaps between his fingers, and even the props are restored so well, it must be a good movie.

"I don't have any props. I moved here directly from a small town in Xiangxi."

"Huh?" Ronald and Spielberg looked at each other with disbelief.

"Yes, I made a report and asked the local government to coordinate. I numbered the bluestone slabs on the road in that town, and then packed them up and moved them here."

Director Xie adjusted his glasses, the cloud was calm and the wind was breezy, as if it wasn't a big deal.

Both Ronald and Spielberg were overwhelmed by such a big deal, how much it would cost in Hollywood.

The two of them didn't have any intention of talking about it. Their systems are different, so there's no way to learn this kind of thing.

"Hey, Director Xie is amazing, he has suppressed all the foreigners in Hollywood." The male lead gave the female lead a thumbs up, and praised the director of his own crew.

"Of course, whoever is not good is good. But if he can earn money, he still has to go abroad. Look at that Xiao Chen. He was learning English when he was filming Xiao Hua with me and wanted to go abroad. This time he came back to the Forbidden City to film, talk and dress up. It’s all foreign, and she even asks others to call her by her English name, Joan Chen. When do you think we’ll be able to make so much money?” the heroine replied.

Ronald and Spielberg slowly walked back to the location along the path.Stepping on the bluestone road again, the two looked at each other without speaking, they also wanted to make this kind of movie.

"Ronald, tell me, their system still has merit." Spielberg knelt down and carefully touched the bluestone slab, and said unwillingly.

"Yeah, how can it be bad to make a movie like this, regardless of the cost?" Ronald also squatted down, and touched the bluestone with his right hand. The real thing is still better than the fake prop.

"Their system is really worthwhile. The support is really strong. When I filmed Top Gun and air-to-air missiles, the Navy only let me shoot two rounds."

"Hey..." Both of them stood up and sighed enviously.
