478, crooked hitting

In front of the Chinese Theater in Hollywood, there are many celebrity handprints and footprints, which is a tourist hotspot.

Fortunately, in a few years, especially after 2010, until Ning Yuan came back, the number of handprints at the entrance of the Huaxia Theater increased to one-third of the total, not counting the part that was not put out and put on the shelf after the seal, otherwise there would be more.

It can be seen to what extent the commercialization has been.

Naturally, its degree of honor is no longer so rare and expensive, and it is much inferior to the handprints of the Avenue of Stars that it established later.

The history of the Chinese Theatre in Hollywood can be traced back to its establishment in 1927, because the Hollywood star Norma Talmechi, who participated in the foundation laying, inadvertently stepped on the wet concrete floor to leave footprints, allowing the founder Grauman to see business opportunities, so all the stars present at that time were invited to leave footprints.

And the Avenue of Stars was not built until 50 years.

One reason is that the Avenue of Stars belongs to the municipal government, although it also charges, but it does not meet the standard...... Even if you give money, you can't get it, the only exception is probably that Victoria's Secret sponsorship gets a star.

After all, the Huaxia Theater is a private industry, and it is for the purpose of making profits, and it will be given if it is slightly qualified.

In 1927, 2020, when Ning Yuan returned, it was nearly a hundred years, and one-third of the handprints were left in the decade after 2010.

Whatever it is, it will drop in price as soon as it is overused.

Fortunately, at this time, the Huaxia Theater can still adhere to strict rules, unlike ten years later, even Feng Xiaogang, Huang Xiaoming and Qian Wei can leave a print, Huang and Qian are mainly to promote "Rampage Hollywood", a completely commercial behavior, and at the same time, there is also the film's producer Lin Yibin.

In fact, Lin Yibin's impression is not an exception, after all, he has a good work, he has been the director of "Quick Rush" since the third part, and he has also carried forward this super IP and influenced the world.

Although the others are considered top in China, they are put in the world...... It's not that Ning Yuan doesn't support his compatriots, but he really feels a little embarrassed - the embarrassing point is not in leaving a seal, but after leaving a seal...... When I returned to China, I sent a press release and directly wrote the title as the Avenue of Stars.

Although the Huaxia Theater is indeed at the heart of the Avenue of Stars, this play on words ...... Don't you blush when you see it?

As of Ningyuan's rebirth, there are only three Chinese who have left their mark on the Avenue of Stars, except for the two dragons, which is the Chinese actress Huang Liushuang more than 70 years ago.

It is worth mentioning that when the foundation stone of the Huaxia Theater was laid, she was also present, and she also nailed the first nail.

Although she was born in the United States, when her motherland was in trouble, she not only donated her jewelry, but also made two anti-war films, and donated all the salaries of the two films. In addition to this, she also organized several fundraisers on her own.

Such feelings are many times stronger than those garbage who have been cultivated by the motherland but bite back and are ashamed of their yellow skins.

Of course, the humiliation, discrimination, and suffering she endured in the United States also varied.

Even now, the Chinese are still prejudiced and discriminated against here, not to mention the weak period when the motherland was in internal and external difficulties.

During the break, Ning Yuan, accompanied by Jiang Youyou and Jiang Zhiqiang, turned the theater around.

Ning Yuan's feeling is that although from some details, it looks like a Chinese style, in fact, it is a mixture of semi-Chinese and Western, or in other words, a Chinese style that conforms to the impression of Americans.

This makes Ning Yuan think of Disney's "Mulan", as well as more than 60 years ago, adapted from the Nobel Prize-winning movie of the same name "Earth", the author is a writer who lived in China for 18 years before returning to the United States.

When Huang Liushuang learned that she was going to shoot this movie, she immediately signed up, but she was not selected because of discrimination, and finally chose two white people as the male and female protagonists to play Chinese farmers.

When Ning Yuan saw this movie by chance, he was scorched by Lei Li, what the hell is this.

Of course, its audience is not Chinese, as long as Americans can bring it in, there is no problem, and the same is true for "Mulan", which criticizes the skin of Huaxia and plays a story that conforms to the three views of the United States.

When Haimer invited Ning Yuan to audition, Ning Yuan also considered the question of image - how to overcome the poor image of Chinese pirates, will Europeans and Americans see themselves, just like they look at the white man with a high nose and deep eye sockets in "The Earth", and feel thunder?

However, when acting in dramas and applying makeup, Ning Yuan suddenly realized that when he became Cui Da, his makeup and thick mustache on his upper lip were slightly curled up at the end, which was very similar to Captain Jack's beard.

When it was originally designed like this, Ning Yuan and the makeup artist didn't think that they would play pirates in the future, purely because they looked imposing with such a beard.

But now it looks ...... Crooked?

After all, Haimo himself said that it was because he saw Cui Da playing him that he had this idea.

Of course, it is not enough to have a beard, looking at those who are beautiful, both men and women, the bridge of the nose is high and straight, otherwise there will be no words to describe beauty such as "the roots of the mountain are straight" and "the bridge of the nose is high".

And one of the characteristics of Europeans and Americans, is also a high nose bridge, in addition to this, there are deep eye sockets.

At the beginning of Chinese people's eye shadow, they wanted to make the eye sockets deeper, and the eye sockets were deep, coupled with the high and straight nose bridge, the facial features were more three-dimensional and better-looking.

If Ning Yuan didn't have these characteristics, he wouldn't be handsome, but when he was wearing makeup, in order to make his face more cold, he still wore eye shadow, which made his eye sockets deeper.

With that beard, it looks like the gap between Europe and the United States is not as big as that of yellow and white.

Thinking about this, Ning Yuan didn't worry much about the image, if he surprised them with the performance at that time, he should still have a certain degree of certainty.

Of course, the prejudice of Europeans and Americans has always run throughout, even if it comes to the third part of pirates, looking for Zhou Yanfa to join, it is also a pirate who plays a yellow race.

can play their male and female number one, until Ning Yuan returns, there is only Liu Qianqian in the live-action version of "Mulan".

However, from the original Huang Liushuang who wanted to act in a Chinese-themed movie but couldn't, to Liu Qianqian playing Mulan, it seems to be the progress of the status of Chinese actors, but in fact, it is the development of Huaxia and the broad market that make them pay attention to it.

And this time the performance at the Huaxia Theater in Hollywood was more sensational than Broadway, in addition to the reputation of "The Good People of Sichuan Province" that has been performed for many times, there is also the popularity of Chinatown here.

Disney Studios' vice president Frank also came over with Hemmer on the day of the premiere, as he said last time, and in addition to the two of them, there were several Disney Film executives.

Obviously, this is not only a performance of a drama, but also the first step to investigate Ning Yuan.
