Entertainment Empire System

Ma Su's words immediately attracted the attention of many people. At this time, everyone thought that Ye Ming gave this role and that role, but did not leave any role for himself? Ye Ming narrowed his eyes and said as if he had some understanding: "I originally wanted to have a role, but in the end I gave it up. My acting skills can no longer be honed by this TV series. Some time ago, when I faced people like Fa Ge and others on the Infernal Affairs crew, I felt that if my acting skills needed to be further improved, then at this time, TV series could no longer satisfy me. I must go to a broader world. You have to go." Tang Wei frowned, his boss's acting skills need to be improved, Ye Ming, the boss, can make actors like them feel a tremor in their inner souls with just one look. This is a powerful aura. Not everyone can achieve the aura of a movie king. Only the top superstars have such a powerful aura. Facing the cheers of thousands of fans, they can remain calm and composed, regardless of wind and waves. Better than strolling around, this is a superstar. But at this moment, his boss said that he needed a broader world. Tang Wei said with some confusion: "Boss, do you still need to improve your acting skills at this time? Your acting skills have already reached the level of a movie actor. You can handle even starring with Fa Ge. Your acting skills still need to be polished." What are you practicing for?" Ye Ming shook his head and said: "Superstar? This may be your opinion. At most, I have some influence in the Asia-Pacific region. As for worldwide, a Berlin actor will let the world know that China has I'm such an actor. And in "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", at most I'm just a familiar face. If it's in Hollywood, even if I'm not an extra, I'm at most a second- and third-tier actor, or even... Third-tier actors are not qualified. Because the second-tier and third-tier actors in Hollywood are already familiar with the Hollywood style, if I go to Hollywood, I may not be as good as those second-tier and third-tier actors. At least I need an adaptation process."

Hollywood, for filmmakers, is a place that they look up to very much. The temple of world cinema, although it does not represent all of world cinema, it does represent the highest level of world cinema.

The dream of almost all filmmakers is to leave their name on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

But if you want to leave your name on it, you need to make a certain contribution to the movie. If you just have money, you may not be able to do it. Bill Gates, the richest man in the world, cannot leave his name on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.

After Ye Ming said this, the scene fell into silence for a while. At this time, Tang Wei bit his lip and said: "Boss, can you tell us what kind of place Hollywood is? At your level Actors who go there are treated like second- and third-tier actors, so if we go there, aren’t we just going to be walk-ons? How are their actors divided?”

The rules of Hollywood are something that actors like them may not be able to come into contact with in their lifetime. In fact, their current dream is to become a big star in China. Hollywood is a place they may think about when they dream.

Ye Ming pondered for a moment and said: "I once talked about something like this with Ms. Ai Qiuhua, the president of Warner Bros. Asia.

Ai Qiuhua told me that it was not a good choice for me to go to Hollywood at that time. If I followed Hollywood's classification method at that time, I would be considered a level 17 actor at most, and I would have a certain influence in the Asia-Pacific region.

Even now, I am only at level 18 at most, and this is because the movie Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon supports my fame. My overall strength, among movie actors, Hollywood’s classification method is around level 18, and it won’t change too much.

In Hollywood, the real top superstars are those in the 20 million salary club. Tom Cruise, Will Smith, Tom Hanks, etc. are all people in the 20 million salary club.

Superstars such as Schwarzenegger and Stallone are almost at this level. In Hollywood, there are no more than ten such superstars. They are all top-notch, and their salary is 20 million US dollars. This is their salary. Find someone you are familiar with, Brother Cheng Long. The box office of the second part of "Rush Hour" is only 15 million US dollars, of course not counting the box office dividends. "

Maybe, they are familiar with big stars such as Tom Hanks at most, but for brother Cheng Long, they are very familiar with him. Even a world-class kung fu star like this can't even get paid in Hollywood. Reaching 20 million, you can imagine how charming the people in the 20 million dollar club are.

Twenty million dollars is still US dollars. This Chinese filmmaker worked hard to shoot a movie. If the ticket sales exceed 100 million, then under such circumstances, a celebration banquet can be held.

But the salary of a movie star can directly reach this figure. Think about it, what a terrifying figure it is.

Ye Ming looked at everyone with a smile and said: "What's the matter? Are you saying that you are surprised by such a thing? In Hollywood, actors with levels above 20 are very rare. Even those stars who are not two He is a member of the multi-million salary club, but his salary is also calculated in millions.

And even if some of these people are not members of the 20 million club, they are still quite powerful, such as the uncrowned king Morgan Freeman. And of course Lernaldo.

If I want to gain a foothold in this place, I still need to do a lot. The first one is to hone my acting skills. The names of the people I mentioned above, except for Leonardo, the acting skills of the rest have all reached an extraordinary level, and every move can affect people's emotions. "

The extraordinary realm, if divided systematically, the acting skills of these people are all at the level of one thousand two hundred, which is the foundation for Chinese actors to gain a foothold in Hollywood.

Ye Ming sighed and continued: "If I didn't want to start from scratch by playing a small role in the past, I would need to hone my acting skills, and find a good agency. Which agency should I choose? , I’m also considering it.”

Superstars like Cheng Long are contract stars with William Morris, the top agency in Hollywood, and also the oldest agency. None of the other brokerage firms combined are as old as William Morris.

Ma Su said reluctantly: "Boss, if you go to Hollywood, we will miss you. By the way, if you don't want to be an actor in this movie, do you want to be a director?"

The boss Ye Ming is also a very talented director. If Ye Ming wants to be the director of The Legend of Zhen Huan, then it is normal under such circumstances.

Ye Ming shook his head and said: "Director, no, I can't be a director. I can only be a producer and an investor. Xu Zheng is in charge of directing the Legend of Zhen Huan. If you have any questions, you can come to him." Me. Because it is your first time to be the director of such an important TV series, I have not arranged for you to have any role in the play. Such a role reversal between director and actor. Now you do not have the ability to do both. Yes, do you have the confidence to complete the task?"

Xu Zheng was quite depressed this time. This time everyone came happily, and everyone was assigned a more suitable role to perform. Even in such a situation, even if they were not from the company, Chen Kun was assigned a relatively important role, but he was the only one who did not have a role.

Just when Xu Zheng was dejected, he suddenly heard Ye Ming say that he was the director of this TV series. Such a change of identity was somewhat unacceptable to the young Xu Zheng.

At this time, Xu Zheng hesitated for a moment, struggled in his heart, and then said very excitedly: "Boss, don't worry, I will do my best to do a good job as a director. If I don't do it well, you punish me."

As the director of The Legend of Zhen Huan, Xu Zheng is actually even more unreliable than Sun Li starring in The Legend of Zhen Huan. Although everyone has some doubts about Sun Li's acting skills, do they think Sun Li has enough acting skills to handle this role?

Under such circumstances, it would be even more difficult for everyone to accept the role of Xu Zheng as a director. But Ye Ming actually has no choice. One day, Ye Ming will leave Brilliant Film and Television and go to Hollywood. Brilliance is his base camp. There must be one or two directors and actors who can support the scenes. Actors don’t need to Having said that, Ye Ming is also very confident about his actors.

But as a director, in such a situation, Huihuang Film and Television is really stretched. Director Shuai Yin, who asked Xu Zheng to helm The Legend of Zhen Huan, was actually honing Xu Zheng's ability to control televisions and movies.

Now that Ye Ming still has some time to stay in the country, he can also point out Xu Zheng's shortcomings.

At this time, Huang Bo said with a smile: "That's great, I will be called Director Xu from now on. Baoqiang, from now on you have to restrain yourself in front of your brother Xu. Otherwise, if you offend Director Xu, you will be punished immediately." You get kicked off the crew."

In fact, Huang Bo and Wang Baoqiang are very happy about the progress of their old friends.

The relationship between the three people is not something that ordinary Beidiao can compare with.

It seems that it is not an exaggeration to describe the relationship between the three people as sharing life and death.

Therefore, it is harmless for Huang Bo to joke, and Xu Zheng will not take it seriously. (To be continued)
