After buying Marvel, I became the king of Hollywood

In the background of Harry Potter's story, Rowling's hometown, the three-quarters platform train station, has become a well-deserved Internet celebrity attraction.

Britain, because Harry Potter conquered the Americans, loves the house and blacks up.

This point is actually easy to understand.

The feelings of the British towards the Americans are very complicated.

From a cultural point of view, the United States was once a British colony, and it existed like its younger brother.

How could the British look at the United States.

But the reality is that the United States has developed rapidly and surpassed the United Kingdom in all aspects of the economy.

This complex emotion of not only looking down on it, but also envious of its good development.

profoundly affected Britain.

Now, a novel created by the British has conquered the Americans and has been made into a movie by a great director like Steve Kevin.

Grossed $[-] million at the box office.

It's hard not to make the British proud.

Every country has patriotism.

Under such emotions, countless British people walked into the cinema to watch the movie.

All of a sudden, a magical trend swept across the UK.

And with this heat, it spreads towards the surroundings.

On the other side, Asian countries.

As the film industry is crushed.

Movie fans really can't refuse this kind of movie full of special effects.

To put it bluntly, Americans have long been accustomed to first-class special effects, and gradually began to watch the plot.

In fact, moviegoers in Asian countries rarely see this level of special effects.

Under this special effect, the plot of the story is actually weakened infinitely.

Of course, having said so much, to put it bluntly, the audience is actually willing to enter the cinema for this kind of special effects blockbuster.

This level of special effects will make the public have an idea that is worth the price of the ticket, and they are willing to step into the cinema for this.

First Korea, then Japan.

Then, of course, the mainland.

Thanks to Kevin's promotion of mainland culture, Harry Potter is healthy and harmless, even children can watch it.

One frame passed the review without any reduction, and directly entered the film market.

At the same time, Chenxi Film's branch in mainland China also started to contact the major theaters about the distribution, and conducted careful negotiations, and finally obtained 80.00% of the film schedules from the theaters in the [-] most economically developed cities.

As for other places, the current channel of Chenxi Films has not yet developed to that point.

And in fact, other places are not important.

These [-] cities have basically concentrated the crowd with the highest willingness to watch movies. In fact, most of the people in other places are still willing to buy pirated discs to watch later.

In this era, only a small number of people have spare money to go to the cinema.

On the day the movie was released.

Zhang Yimou and Jiang Wen came to the cinema tacitly.

Since talking carefully with Steve Kevin about the film's development, the two have somewhat changed their minds.

To put it bluntly, when other people speak, they may not be convinced.

But what Steve Kevin, a big Hollywood director and boss of a big film company, said, if you think about it carefully, it makes sense.

They came here just to experience the gap between the two film industries on the spot.

Also, what can they learn from it.

This kind of behavior is just like the author reading books written by other authors, absorbing the advantages of others can more or less improve himself.

Speaking of this, in fact, in the past two years, they have not stopped, and each made a movie.

Jiang Wen is still the same, and he shoots the scenes he wants to shoot.

As for whether the audience can understand it, in his opinion, it doesn't matter at all. To put it bluntly, he made the movie for himself.

As expected, his film was blocked.

As for Zhang Yimou, he filmed a commercial film, which also managed to earn 2000 million at the box office, which is considered a profit.

However, there is still a huge difference between this result and Hollywood blockbusters.

When the two entered the movie theater, they found that the people who came to the movie theater were couples with children, or couples.

The two big men were somewhat embarrassed.

Luckily they sat in the back.

Not many people noticed them.

···

The movie starts playing.

The picture came to Hogwarts.

Kevin created the realistic scene of Hogwarts in real scene, so naturally it is impossible to just pass through a simple picture.

Through the live aerial photography of the helicopter, the panoramic view of Hogwarts appeared in front of the audience.

Zhang Yimou frowned and asked:

"Jiang Wen, do you think this is a real scene or a special effect?"

From his experience, this should be the real scene, but he is not sure, after all, the cost is too high.

Jiang Wen glanced at Zhang Yimou, and said carelessly:

"Real scene."

"I have paid close attention to the news in the United States. It is said that Steve Kevin directly copied all the scenes in the play in order to shoot Harry Potter."

"I heard that it has received 20 spectators in more than a month, and the ticket money is crazy."

Hearing this news, Zhang Yimou suddenly had the idea of ​​going to the United States for a trip.

Chapter 295 Anne Hathaway

He realized it from the bottom of his heart.

The difference between the mainland film circle and the Hollywood film circle.

This is a film market that is fundamentally far behind.

If he hadn't talked to Steve Kevin, he might just catch up slowly and work hard.

But after talking with Steve Kevin, he suddenly had an idea.

He wants to go to Hollywood to try filming.

He wanted to try what kind of movies he could make after studying under the industrial system of Hollywood.

As for how to go.

It depends on whether Steve Kevin is willing to give him this opportunity. He can see that Steve Kevin appreciates him very much. Taking advantage of this, he hopes that Kevin can lead him to become a leader in Hollywood. famous director.

Only by experiencing it personally can we know the root of the gap between the two sides and how to pursue it.

Empty speculation, floating on the surface, is hopeless.

The movie continued to play, and Zhang Yimou let go of his discrimination against such commercial films, and began to watch Harry Potter carefully.

Of course, only Steve Kevin's movies can make him let go of this mentality.

The current mainland directors have a contemptuous attitude towards commercial films, and they are undoubtedly the object of discrimination by only making commercial films.

Discrimination is enough, they will suppress and exclude them with the attitude of elders.

In such an environment, it is difficult for commercial film directors to succeed.

Those directors who do everything for the so-called art and for the awards are praised by them instead.

Zhang Yimou was like this before.

It wasn't until after the conversation with Steve Kevin that he got rid of this kind of thinking and began to face up to the role of commercial films.

At the same time, I began to understand the market environment in which Kevin talked about commercial films as the mainstay and art films as the supplement.

For other directors, their thinking can be as simple as that.

But he, who claims to be the number one director in mainland China, of course has to think differently.

As No.1, he should shoulder greater responsibilities and help the mainland film market to become more prosperous.

In this way, the status of the profession of director will be higher.

Isn't that what people pursue?

Either for fame or profit.

He, Zhang Yimou, is not a saint either. Money is such a thing. Those who can be directors are not poor. Of course, he is not short of money.

So, of course, he did it for a name.

Zhang Yimou watched Harry Potter almost the whole time with an attitude of dissecting the movie, but Jiang Wen didn't think about it so much. He was enjoying the movie from the perspective of the audience.

The more he looked, the more Zhang Yimou frowned.

He found that Harry Potter is a typical American commercial film model, and all the rhythms are almost like the textbooks of the American Film Academy.

This also seems to be characteristic of Steve Kevin.

He is like an invisible machine, all the rhythms are so precise, he can grasp every emotion of the audience, and let the audience's emotions be controlled by him at all times.

It's like watching a movie about men and women. The audience will always be looking forward to it until they go in.

But once it happened, it was boring.

This is also the reason why the climax of the movie is often stuck at the last point.

Everything in front is foreshadowing.

Although every director has learned these basic film knowledge, in fact, many directors do not use it in this way.

The film that came out had a mess of rhythm.

Especially many art films, which are difficult to understand, the rhythm is a mess, and the audience is scolded for not knowing how to appreciate it.

These people have been masters for a long time, and the things they shoot are not for people to see.

Not to mention that most people don't watch it, even the audience that the director wants to get doesn't like to watch it.

Keep these things firmly in mind.

After the movie was over, Zhang Yimou immediately took Jiang Wen to the Beijing branch of Chenxi Film Company, and passed Zhang Yimou's request to Kevin through them.

······

Chenxi Film Company is currently conducting a casting campaign.

In addition to the dual protagonists, male and female supporting roles have to be selected separately. Of course, Kevin has left these things to other people to do.

But the heroine, that is, the person who plays the role of Dwayne Johnson's wife in the play, is played by Kevin himself.

To be blunt, Kevin just wants to find something new.

This kind of thing is commonplace in Hollywood.

In this regard, even if he was not an American in his previous life, he knew how powerful Hollywood's unspoken rules were through the complaints of actresses.

At the same time relying on the body, it is not uncommon to sleep all over the crew to make custom filmmakers, directors, assistant directors, investors, etc. at one time.

It can be said that the entertainment circles all over the world are generally dark.

Girls who have no background and want to be clean should not step into this circle.
