Chapter 1,350 The Hidden Rules of Hollywood

The stars envelope the noisy city to sleep, and the moonlight holds the tired mood good night. A cool breeze blew quietly like a dream, and the lights of thousands of houses flickered in various ways. Every day, this busy city seems a little quiet at this moment. How many people are busy working for their ideals, how many people are disappointed with the future and leave this sad city.

At this moment, Liu Weiqiang is still in a very anxious mood. The problem is that Andy is not in a hurry. Moreover, not only is Andy not in a hurry, he is still interested in looking at the scenery outside the window. Why are you thinking about looking at the scenery at this time? How long has it been? Liu Weiqiang is also a little depressed about this matter, and it is not an ordinary depression.

Liu Weiqiang complained: "Hua Zai, regarding this matter, we need to find Ye Ming as soon as possible. According to my wishes, we can just get off the plane and find Ye Ming directly. Let's discuss it and see if there is a reason for him to come to the filming." Infernal Affairs Part 3.”

This is the result that Liu Weiqiang hopes to see. If Ye Ming joins, then the third part of Infernal Affairs will have a stronger lineup and a more complete one.

Without Ye Ming, the third part of Infernal Affairs and the final chapter of Infernal Affairs, no matter what angle you look at it from, it would feel like something is missing.

Andy was not in a hurry at all, and explained slowly: "I have naturally considered this matter, letting Ye Ming perform Infernal Affairs. This is almost impossible. If it were possible, then I would not ask Liang Chaowei to do it." .

Since Liang Chaowei was hired, Ye Ming will definitely not participate in the starring role in Infernal Affairs at this time. This is for sure. Do you think Infernal Affairs is more important, or is Speed ​​and Furious more important to Ye Ming? "

Liu Weiqiang doesn't want to answer this question. In fact, such a question is easy to answer no matter what it is. The question is, are you willing to face such an answer?

Finally, Liu Weiqiang said: "Of course it's Fast and Furious. This should be of great help to Ye Ming's career. No matter how it is, if you can gain a foothold in Hollywood, it is every actor's dream dream."

If you compare Infernal Affairs Part 3 with Fast and Furious, there is indeed a big gap in impact and other aspects.

Andy was naturally very aware of this, so he nodded and said, "That's right, that's probably what happened. On such an issue, we can let Ye Ming make a cameo, which can be an explanation to the audience. This is already pretty good.

There's no problem asking him to make a cameo. But now the question is how do we invite Ye Ming to come? If we find his company directly, you also said that speed and passion are more important to Ye Ming. Now Ye Ming is in seclusion to figure out the script and practice racing skills. At this time, reporters from the United States, Japan, South Korea and other countries were rejected by Ye Ming.

If we go to his company and say that he doesn't agree, what will we do? Doesn't this mean that our trip is in vain? "

Andy is not willing to fail at this stage. If he cannot catch Ye Ming at this time and waits until Ye Ming goes to Hollywood, it will be almost difficult to find Ye Ming to guest star in the third film of Infernal Affairs.

Liu Weiqiang said curiously: "Isn't it possible for you to go? Could it be that if we look for Ye Ming privately, we have a greater chance of success."

Andy said with a smile: "We went to the company to find him. It was a business-to-business relationship. I may not be absolutely sure to bring Ye Ming in. After all, in such a matter, our movie is not If Ye Ming said no to an investor, it would be reasonable.

But if we talk to Ye Ming privately, it means using personal relationships. This has nothing to do with the company's affairs. In this matter, if we are talking about using personal relationships, then I think the chance of success is still very high.

Some time ago, Ye Ming and I had a phone call. I asked him about making a cameo in the third part of Infernal Affairs, and he verbally agreed, saying that he would make a guest appearance if there was a suitable opportunity.

Therefore, when it comes to a problem like this, if we use personal relationships, then at such a time, it is easier to succeed. "

In fact, this is also the fundamental reason why Andy didn't go to the company to find Ye Ming immediately after getting off the plane. If he went to the company, things would become business-to-business immediately. This is not what Andy wants to see.

Therefore, when he arrived in the capital, Andy contacted Ye Ming, but he invited Ye Ming to go out for dinner at night. Going out to eat at this moment is the same as what Andy himself said. Regarding such a question, at this time He invited Ye Ming in his private capacity.

At least Andy felt that if it was a private invitation to make a guest appearance based on his relationship with Ye Ming, Ye Ming would not refuse. While the two were talking, Ye Ming opened the door and came in: "Hua Zai, Director Liu, I kept you waiting for a long time."

Hua Zai stood up, walked over and said, "I originally wanted to go to your company, but thinking about you being very busy recently, I didn't go to your company to look for you. Thinking about it, it would be better to ask you out for dinner."

Liu Weiqiang also stood up and said, "Mr. Ye, I haven't seen you for a while. Every time I see you, you are very busy."

The three of them exchanged pleasantries, and Andy immediately switched to the more formal topic and said, "I'm asking you to come here this time. I also agreed on the phone last time that you would be the leading actor. I guess you don't have the time, right?" "

Ye Ming shrugged his shoulders and said: "Unfortunately, there is really no such time. In fact, I am still very optimistic about the third part of Infernal Affairs. But the Fast and Furious side has already started preparations, and I can't delay this matter." .”

Ye Ming really thinks that Fast and Furious is very important now. Whether this movie can be successful is actually related to whether Ye Ming can really gain a foothold in Hollywood and become a member of the 20 million salary club. Opportunity. This is a turning point. If it succeeds, Ye Ming will be able to reach a higher level. If it fails, Ye Ming's status in Hollywood will become a little dangerous.

Therefore, regarding such a matter, Ye Ming naturally attaches great importance to this movie.

Therefore, even though Andy and Ye Ming had communicated about this matter, Ye Ming did not relent and said that he would definitely agree to star in the third part of Infernal Affairs.

Andy immediately nodded and said, "I knew this was the result, so I have asked Liang Chaowei to take your place.

But no matter what, you always have to make a cameo. This is an explanation for our movie and an explanation for our audience. Making a cameo will make the whole story more perfect. "

Although Ye Ming agreed verbally, he did not sign a contract. If this matter does not sign a contract, it will not be considered to be truly implemented. Therefore, on such an issue, Andy Lau and Liu Weiqiang personally rushed to the capital to talk to Ye Ming about this matter. This time, the two of them came to Ye Ming to sign a contract.

Ye Ming nodded and said: "There is no problem with this matter, but there is one thing. The time will not be too long, maybe three days, I estimate it will be three days. In three days, I will fly from Hong Kong City to Hollywood. There are still people there. I have to choose the role of Fast and Furious. This is the right that I finally got. It made Alexander from Universal so angry that he was half-dead. I don’t want to waste time and give Alexander a reason to cancel me. This right."

Choosing roles is very important for Fast and Furious. For Fast and Furious to be so successful, a very important point is the tacit cooperation and wonderful acting skills of the four leading actors.

Therefore, good actors are not necessarily the most suitable for Fast and Furious. Only the most suitable actors for this movie can create a movie that you can respect.

On such an issue, Ye Ming actually knows this most clearly. If The Fast and the Furious were to be performed by a superstar with a salary of 20 million yuan, and this superstar suppressed the shine of all the actors, it would be difficult to say whether the movie would still be so successful.

Therefore, in a matter like this, the balance of strength between actors is very important.

In a movie, if there are no superstars and all actors, whether starring or supporting roles, can work hard to exert their own strength, then it is possible for a classic to appear.

The Fast and the Furious is actually an example of this. In such a thing, the four leading actors left a deep impression on people.

What can be said is that if the subsequent Fast and Furious had changed its starring role, it might not have achieved such brilliant results. Ye Ming is very clear on this point.

At this moment, Andy also breathed a sigh of relief and said: "Three days, no problem, three days is enough to complete the filming of your scene.

On the other hand, the rights to the Fast and Furious characters are all in your hands. When you get to Hong Kong City, there will probably be many people looking for you. Every actor wants to try his luck in Hollywood, but not everyone has the courage. Now that there is such a good opportunity, it is estimated that everyone will not let it go. If I didn't have the movie Infernal Affairs, I would want to give it a try. "

Hollywood is indeed the highest level of film production. This must be acknowledged no matter what, but it is very difficult to survive here, which is also normal.

Therefore, regarding such a problem, Ye Ming now has the right to choose roles in the movie Fast and Furious, which will definitely make many people envious. If he can seize this opportunity, he can be in If you appear in a top Hollywood movie, it is definitely a very commendable thing.

Therefore, Ye Ming is also an opportunity for them. Liu Weiqiang was also very envious and said: "Yes, Hollywood roles, this thing is enough to make many people excited.

Mr. Ye, don't worry, I will try my best to arrange to shoot your content in a secret place. "

When Ye Ming heard this, he said indifferently: "Some people may think that since I can choose actors, I can just let them go to the Fast and Furious crew.

But they never thought that if I choose a role, there is no problem, but the role I choose must be in line with the movie. I don’t invest in movies alone, I need to be responsible to investors.

If I choose all Chinese actors, then on such a problem, this matter is out of my control. By then, Fast and Furious will no longer be a Hollywood blockbuster, but a Chinese blockbuster. Do you think Universal and other investors would allow such a result to occur? "

This is almost impossible. Andy nodded firmly and said: "If I were an investor, then I would not want such a thing to happen, and I would definitely stop it. ah."

This is ruining people's financial prospects, and it is definitely a rhythm of tearing one's face.

Ye Ming immediately said: "Yes, that's it. Investors will not allow this to happen. Therefore, on such a problem, I have the right to choose the role, but it must be beneficial to the movie." of.

Both the director and investors must be convinced. Otherwise, my choice may not count. Moreover, I chose four people, maybe even less. Anyway, some actors from China don’t have much hope of wanting to participate in this movie. "

Even if Chinese actors hope to have such an opportunity, it is difficult to say clearly whether you can have this opportunity in such a matter.

Ye Ming's rights cannot guarantee that they will definitely participate in the Fast and Furious show. Therefore, regarding such an issue, in fact, the hopes of those actors in Hong Kong City may be in vain.

At this time, in fact, the actors in Hong Kong City really didn't understand the true meaning of this matter, thinking that Ye Ming must be an opportunity. They were still waiting to find a suitable opportunity at this time to let Ye Ming choose them.

In fact, what Ye Ming said was very clear about this matter. It is almost impossible to establish this matter.

Liu Weiqiang also felt deeply sorry for those actors at this moment. This is indeed the number one opportunity, but Ye Ming said very clearly that it is an opportunity, but this opportunity is not something you can seize. When you arrive in Hollywood, you should abide by the rules of Hollywood. The rules of Hollywood are that everything is for the sake of the movie.

If we were to use a common saying in the Chinese entertainment industry, it would mean that the drama is as big as the sky. This point shows that Hollywood attaches great importance to movies.

It is undeniable that the Hollywood entertainment industry also has various unspoken rules, but one of the core of these unspoken rules is that it cannot cause damage to the movie, otherwise it will break the rules. (To be continued)
