Chapter 351: Returning Home and Auditioning (5/5)
How to say it...
Sino-US co-productions, if they can be filmed well, are indeed beneficial to both parties.
The problem is the cultural difference between the two markets in China and the United States, and the consequent will inevitably be the difference in the choice of the audience's taste, and the preferred theme is different!
According to the short and tight statement: China can be integrated into Hollywood like the Sony of Japanese benzene, and make movies in the Hollywood way...
Is that still called a Chinese movie?
It's really the heart of serving the country...
Forget it, don't complain about him...
Sino-US co-production, in a word, cooperation is easy, co-production is difficult!
It is estimated that this is also the reason why the Sino-American co-film "Journey to the West" has been dragging on...
It can't be delayed any longer, if it drags on any longer, the sixth master really can't move!
But there is one exception: disaster films!
Especially disaster films with a bit of a thriller nature, both the box office in China and the United States can be good - "Megalodon" is an example...
What's in Megalodon?
Isn't it a remake of "Extreme Deep Cold" and "Deep Sea Shark"!
The scene is a little bigger...
This broke the global box office of $530 million — the cost was $130 million.
Can you believe it?
"The Great Wall" is too big an investment, if you replace a few actors, you may be able to make money!
After all, there are basically four conditions for a movie that can harvest the global box office: commercial genre, a large number of special effects, big stars, and past plots...
The main reason for A's failure is because of flattery - foreigners help Chinese fight monsters?
This is the first time Thomas Toole has tried to contact Shen Mengxi...
Unsuccessful!
......
"Cate Blanchett is awesome!"
The first sentence made Shen Mengxi's heart half cold, but fortunately, Liu Yifei's second sentence was: "Her acting skills are simply a play..."
"She is really good, she studied economics before, she started acting in stage plays at the age of 25, and won the Sydney Drama Critics Council Award for Best Actress the following year... The talent is outstanding!"
The young lady was even more surprised: "... Is it so powerful?"
"Of course, Australian actors can make a name for themselves in the mainstream Hollywood film industry, and the talent and hard work can be imagined..."
"Wow!"
"But she was unlucky, and in 1999 at the Oscars, she ran into the water after Gwyneth... If "Elizabeth" meets "Shakespeare's Love History" with strength, it will not lose, of course, those three nominations, anyone can win the water in seconds!"
Fairlanda Montenegro "Central Station", Meryl Streep "Family Affection is Priceless", Emily Watson "She's Lonelier Than Fireworks"...
It was Gwyneth, the queen of water, who announced the award, and Meryl Streep went blackface on the spot - and then unswervingly cooperated with Harvey, and joined if he couldn't beat it!
"She hasn't won an Oscar, has she?"
"Nominated five times, won Best Supporting Actress once, and people chose "Carol" for Best Actress next year..."
"What about me?"
“... It's hard to say..."
The young lady was so angry that she pushed her head against his stomach...
"Don't... You also have a chance, at least get a nomination or something..."
"That's pretty much it!"
“... If you bring this bear every day, will it be crushed, it's not big!"
Ahem, for the sake of the role, the young lady can't really show her size, so that there is that sense of loli...
"How is it possible, it is said that where there is oppression, where there is resistance..."
Having said that, she also untied her restraints, and immediately two balls of that stuff jumped out...
"Come on, I'll feel it!"
"I want to try guns too!"
“... You... What would you like to try?"
She squatted down and looked at Shen Mengxi charmingly...
......
Oscar nomination example The official awards ceremony is about a month apart, Shen Mengxi has flown from Los Angeles to New York and from New York to Los Angeles in the past few days, and then, he left...
It's time to return home!
It's too boring, all kinds of parties, wine banquets, and key things are not delicious!
It's not delicious!
It's tempting to look at, like a salad, shredded apples, celery and grapes topped with sauce, topped with toast slices, and when you bite into it, it tastes inexplicable!
It's called an apple and celery salad...
Lao Mei eats this thing?
I miss my mother's gourd chicken more and more, and the meat bun in the alley next door...
On February 20, Shen Mengxi left the United States and flew back to Beijing...
He wants to fly to Xi'an, isn't this something that the company has to do.
Auditions - "30 Years Old Again", "33 Days of Broken Love" and "The Key Thief", "The Guy in My Body" four films joint audition...
Shen Mengxi was a little confused, what did you say about auditioning for the first two films?
"Twenty Years Old Again", starring Liu Yifei, Gui Yalei, Zhu Yawen, Han Geng;
"33 Days of Broken Love", starring Yang Xiaomi, Wang Kai, Zhang Jiayi, Guo Jingfei (Wei Yi), Liu Shishi (Feng Jiaqi), Zhang Hanyun (Li Ke), Zhang Luyi (Lu Ran);
By the way, "My Girlhood" is starring Zhang Hanyun + Lin Gengxin, the adult Lin Zhenxin invited Yuan Quan to star, and the adult Xu Taiyu is Xia Yu, just make a pair...
These are all ready-made actors in the company, what kind of audition?
Song Hang said that he wanted to audition publicly...
Why open auditions?
The company's own resources, of course, must give priority to the supply of its own people!
Song Hang explained: "Last year's results were too good, we must give some soup and water to our peers, otherwise, we can't stand it!"
"... You'll talk about it when I get back!"
......
Well, Mengxi's achievements last year were indeed too dazzling!
produced four films, all of which grossed over 100 million yuan, and all of them were in the top 10 of the box office list...
Even the worst "Crazy Lottery" has a box office of 172 million...
The veteran powerhouse, Huayi only has one "The Wind", which is still filmed in cooperation with Mengxi Company;
Bona made the list with "October Siege";
Even China Film only has two seats: "The Great Cause of the Founding of the People's Republic of China", "Red Cliff Down"...
It's a bit of a woody show in the forest!
This year, "Old Boy", "My Girlhood", and "Painted Skin 2" have been produced and are ready to be set for April, May and July...
It's hard to say anything else, "Painted Skin 2" is definitely a box office weapon, book the top ten of the year in advance...
Why are you hanging like that?
You can't play like that, you have to unite the masses, you know?
The main course is not allowed to go out, and the soup and soup are at least left a little bit, right?
After getting off the plane, Shen Mengxi got in the car and took last year's box office report handed over by Zhao Jinsong, and he was also taken aback: "We were so good last year?"
"Hmm... All four of our films are profitable!"
“... Okay, I see!"
"What about the audition?"
"Isn't it a requirement for unity, "Lucky Key" and "The Guy in My Body" can find Ren Dahua, Hui Yinghong and Lin Xue, by the way, add another Carina Lau!"
"This is a Hong Kong artist... What about the domestic ones?"
"Domestic, look at their attitude, remember, it is they who ask us to cooperate, and we are the protagonists!"
Zhao Jinsong nodded: "... Hua Yi pushed a guy named Yang Ying over there, and wanted us to help bring it!"
"Why... Wait, who are you talking about?"
"Yang Ying, Yang Tianbao!"
"Oh, I know she..."
I also learned from her!
