Chapter 638: Superstars and Top Superstars
Ma Su's words immediately attracted the attention of many people, and everyone only thought at this time that Ye Ming gave this role and that role, but only did he not leave any role for himself? Ye Ming narrowed his eyes, and said as if he had a slight understanding: "I originally wanted to have a role, but in the end, I still let it go, and my acting skills are no longer something that this TV series can hone." Some time ago, when I faced Fa Ge and others in the Infernal Affairs crew, I felt that my acting skills needed to be further improved, at this time, the TV series could no longer satisfy me. It has to go to a wider world. Tang Wei frowned, his boss's acting skills need to be improved, Ye Ming, the boss, can make these actors feel a tremor in their hearts with a look, this is a powerful aura, the aura of an actor, this is not something that anyone can do, the top emperor superstar has this kind of powerful aura, in the face of the cheers of thousands of fans, they are all able to be calm, regardless of the wind and waves, it is better than a leisurely stroll, this is a superstar. But at this moment, his boss said that he needed a broader world. Tang Wei said with some incomprehension: "Boss, do you still need to improve your acting skills at this time?" Your acting skills have reached the level of an actor, even if you are playing with Fa Ge, you can catch it, what do you need to hone your acting skills?" Ye Ming shook his head and said: "Superstar? This may be your opinion, do I have some influence in the Asia-Pacific region at most, as for the world, a Berlin actor, that is, let the world know that there is an actor like me in Huaxia." And a [Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon] is at most a familiar face, if it is said that in Hollywood, I am not considered a group performance, at most it is a second- or third-tier actor, and even a third-tier actor is not qualified. Because the second- and third-tier actors in Hollywood are already familiar with the style of Hollywood, if I go to Hollywood. Maybe it's not as good as those second- and third-tier actors, at least it takes a process of adaptation. ”
Hollywood, for filmmakers, is a very up-and-coming place, the temple of world cinema, although it cannot represent the whole of world cinema. But it represents the highest level of world cinema.
Almost all filmmakers dream of leaving their name on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
But if you want to leave a name on it, you need to make a certain contribution to the movie, if you are rich alone, it may not be possible, Bill Gates, the richest man in the world, but it is impossible to leave a name on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Ye Ming said something like this, and the scene suddenly 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? If we go, we are treated as second- and third-tier actors, so if we go, isn't it just the fate of running tricks?
The rules of Hollywood, this is something that these actors may not be able to get into touch in their lifetime. In fact, their dream now is to become a big star in China, Hollywood, that is a place they may think about when they dream.
Ye Ming pondered for a moment and said, "Once I talked to Ms. Ai Qiuhua, the president of Warner Bros. Asia, about such a thing.
Ai Qiuhua told me that when I went to Hollywood, it was actually not a very good choice. I was going to follow the Hollywood way of dividing it. At most, he is a seventeen-level actor, and he can have a certain influence in the Asia-Pacific region.
Even now. I'm eighteen at most, and that's because of the movie Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, which supports my fame. My overall strength, among movie actors, Hollywood's division method is around eighteen, and there will be no too high changes.
And in Hollywood, the real top superstars. It's the people of the 20 million pay club, Tom Cruise, Will Smith, Tom Hanks, etc. are all people in the 20 million pay club.
Superstars such as Schwarzenegger and Stallone are almost superstars of this level. In Hollywood, there will be no more than ten such superstars, they are all top-notch, 20 million dollars, and this is their salary. Find someone you are more familiar with, Brother Cheng Long, the box office of the second part of [Rush Hour] is only 15 million US dollars, of course, it is not a box office dividend. ”
Perhaps, Tom Hanks and other big stars are familiar to them at best, but for Brother Cheng Long, they are very familiar, they are such a world-class top kung fu superstar, when they arrive in Hollywood, the salary has not been able to reach 20 million, and it is conceivable how attractive the people in the 20 million dollar club are.
20 million, or US dollars, this Chinese filmmaker is desperately trying to shoot a movie, if it means that the ticket sales exceed 100 million, then in such a situation, a celebration banquet can be held.
But the salary of a movie star can directly reach this number, think about what a terrible number.
Ye Ming looked at everyone with a smile and said: "What's the matter, do you mean that you are surprised by such a thing, Hollywood, actors above the level of 20 are also very rare, even if those stars are not a member of the 20 million salary club, but the salary is calculated in millions."
And even if some of these people are not members of the 20 million club, they are quite powerful, such as the uncrowned king Morgan Freeman. And, of course, Learnardo.
If I want to establish myself in this place, there are still a lot of things that need to be done, and the first one is to hone my acting skills. The names of the people I mentioned above, except for Leonardo, the rest of the people have all reached the extraordinary realm, and their every move can affect people's feelings. ”
The transcendent realm, if it is divided in the system, the acting skills of these people have all reached 12, 1200, which is a fundamental for Chinese actors to gain a foothold in Hollywood.
Ye Ming sighed and continued: "If I didn't want to start from scratch in the past, then I need to hone my acting skills, and I also need to find a good brokerage company, and I am also thinking about which brokerage company to go to." ”
A superstar like Cheng Long is a signed star of William Morris, Hollywood's top brokerage company, and it is also the oldest brokerage company. The history of other brokerage companies combined is not as long as William Morris.
Ma Su said reluctantly: "Boss, if you go to Hollywood, we will miss you." By the way, you don't want to be an actor in this play, do you want to be a director?"
Ye Ming, the boss, is also a very talented director, if it is said that Ye Ming wants to be the director of Zhen Huan's biography, then in such a situation, it is also very normal.
Ye Ming shook his head and said: "Director, no, I won't be a director, I will be a producer at most, an investor, Zhen Huanchuan's directorial work, Xu Zheng, you can master, you can come to me if you have any questions." Because you are the first time to be the director of such an important TV series, therefore, I did not arrange for you to have any role in the play. The role of director and actor is switching, and now you don't have the ability to do both, do you have the confidence to complete the task? ”
Xu Zheng was relatively depressed this time, this time everyone came happily, and everyone was assigned a more suitable role to perform, and even in such a situation, even Chen Kun, who was not a member of the company, was assigned a more important role, but he did not have a role.
Just when Xu Zheng was depressed, he suddenly heard Ye Ming say that he was the director of this TV series, and such an identity change was still a little 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 you don't do it well, you will punish me. ”
Xu Zheng, as the director of Zhen Huan's biography, is actually more unreliable than Sun Li playing Zhen Huan. Although everyone has some doubts about Sun Li's acting skills, do you think Sun Li can have enough acting skills to control this role?
In such a situation, it is even more difficult for everyone to accept the role of Xu Zheng as a director. But Ye Ming actually has nothing to do, Ye Ming will one day leave Brilliant Film and Television to go to Hollywood, this brilliance is his own base camp, there must be one or two directors and actors who can support the scene, needless to say, Ye Ming is also very relieved of his own actors.
But as a director, in such a situation, brilliant film and television are really stretched. The director Shuai Yin, who let Xu Zheng take charge of Zhen Huan's biography, is actually honing Xu Zheng's ability to control TV and movies.
Taking advantage of the fact that Ye Ming still has a certain amount of time to stay in China, he can also point out Xu Zheng's shortcomings.
At this time, Huang Bo said with a smile: "It's terrible, I will be called Director Xu in the future, Baoqiang, you will have to restrain yourself in front of your Brother Xu in the future." Otherwise, if you annoy Director Xu, you will be kicked out of the crew immediately. ”
For the progress of old friends, in fact, Huang Bo and Wang Baoqiang are still very happy.
The relationship between the three people, that is not to say that the general North Drift can be compared.
The relationship between the three people seems to be described as life and death.
Therefore, Huang Bo's jokes are harmless, and Xu Zheng will not take it seriously. (To be continued......)
