The sea breeze is gentle, and the balcony on the second floor of the villa is equipped with a few sun loungers and sun umbrellas, and the endless sea and soft sand are not far away.

There are fruits and sweets on the table.

"Oh~ beautiful lady, thank you for the red wine. Harvey pretended to be a gentleman and raised his wine glass, and said with a smile to Li Ruoting, who was mature and sexy in front of him, who helped pour the wine.

"You're welcome. Li Ruoting smiled, and her plump figure was touched.

"Ahem!"

The eldest brother coughed and glanced at Harvey vigilantly, this fat man is not like a good lewd!

"John, I've already participated in several independent film awards for the two films "Fear Room" and "Two Heroes", and the results are quite good. I've been trying to get the word out lately. It is estimated that it will be released in a month, and it is expected that no less than 300 screens will be put into production.

My idea was to promote the Chinese community in California and attract both Chinese and fans of the respective film genre. Horror movies and action movies have a certain number of fans in the United States...... I think there will be a small profit at the box office. Harvey laughed.

Don't think that with the fame of the so-called director of the Cannes Palme d'Or, you can conquer North America, wishful thinking.

Wu Xiaozu's reputation in North America at this time was even inferior to some directors of Shaw Brothers. Not to mention the Cheng Long form operated by Golden Harvest.

It's like later generations, when foreigners went to the mainland to develop...... At most, it will become a 'big mountain' or 'Koji', and then it will be difficult to go up. It is not easy for the yellow race to develop in all walks of life in the United States at this time.

This is even more true in Hollywood.

Wu Xiaozu's several plays can only be regarded as small-budget independent films. He didn't really think about how much money he could make. It is impossible for a scene made with a pure Chinese face to succeed at this time.

Later generations only released a sci-fi version of "Pride and Prejudice" - "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

Liamine is a Western-style way of thinking, including the design of the film, which is in the classic Hollywood format. If you want to gain a foothold in Hollywood, you must not only have strength, but also have connections.

What he is doing now is to explore the independent film industry for the time being, and to be able to develop slowly based on it.

This is a very good time point.

Hollywood's so-called independent films are mainly distinguished from the mainstream Hollywood studios, that is, the eight major film companies of the year. After World War II, a number of independently produced 'experimental films', 'avant-garde films', and 'underground films' first appeared. Of course, in fact, the eight major film companies were also independent film companies at the beginning, and they were for Edison's monopoly, so I won't mention this.

Today's independent films refer to either external production forms, financed, filmed and distributed outside the Hollywood system, or internally in essence, focusing on niche themes or different from Hollywood's traditional concepts, morals, and forms, which is the so-called "independent spirit".

In this era, the mainstream of Hollywood has not yet popularized elements such as Black Lives Matter, women's rights, environmental protection, and LGBT.

The advent of videotapes can be said to have given independent films and the independent film industry room to live. Before that, Hollywood's independent films had very little room to survive.

Survival is something that Hollywood movies have to think about.

In the North American market, whether it is independent filmmakers or independent film companies, their existence is just another manifestation of the commodification of films. This is more in line with the trend than the pure art films of Europe.

In fact, independent films do not mean that the investment is small, nor does it mean that they are B-grade films. If you look at it extensively, "Star Wars" is an independent movie.

Martin Scorsese, Coppola, and Lucas are Hollywood trendsetters who have pushed for change in Hollywood.

Late 80s, early 90s.

American independent films can be said to have entered the most glorious period, and the establishment of the Sundance Film Festival, the most important award for independent films in later generations, is a small sign.

Arguably, the 90s were the most glorious moment for independent cinema. From the mid-90s, Warner, Paramount, and Sony (at this time, Columbia) began to take these independent labels and filmmakers under their control.

The independent film scene is chaotic.

But~

No way.

On the contrary, the independent film industry is a stepping stone for him.

He also wanted to kill all sides as soon as he came in, but that was just imagination.

The discrimination and the guilt of being an outsider here are insurmountable hurdles.

Moreover, he himself is not familiar with the process of Hollywood films, which needs to be understood slowly.

He was sure that if he really followed the Hong Kong Island way, he was afraid that he would fall badly! This requires the accumulation of experience and experience. In particular, Wu Xiaozu is sure that he is not a "genius", and he can't play with Hollywood's production mode if he can't come up.

Fortunately, the situation of Hong Kong films has not yet reached the point of complete collapse, and he has time to slowly figure it out. Before the mainland film market was formed and opened up, the North American market was one of its own ways out......

Harvey is not necessarily a good collaborator, but, for the time being, he is also the most suitable opportunity for himself to enter the North American market, just like the role of 'metronome' Harvey for no drama~

Am I looking for a way out for Chinese films?

Ahem~

Wu Xiaozu took a sip of wine embarrassedly, if you cheat yourself, you still don't think about it~

"Harvey, you're doing a great job. Wu Xiaozu smiled and raised his glass.

"You don't mind if I make some gimmicks with you, do you? I mean the Cannes Palme d'Or and some specious scandals?" asked Harvey with a smile.

"Nope. ”

Wu Xiaozu shrugged his shoulders and said with a smile: "I don't think I mind." But – I want my people to follow through on these processes. ”

"Of course~"

Harvey raised his glass, took a sip of wine, and said with a smile: "What do you think of the three major film festivals next year? I heard that you are ...... You know I'm very interested in KungFu films, and if I have the chance, I want to try to introduce Chinese KungFu films to North America, even though it's a niche genre, but you know, Bruce Lee has made a lot more KungFu fans in North America. In the past, Columbia's KungFu tapes made good profits. ”

Bruce Lee has made indelible contributions to kung fu and the spread of kung fu movies.

"No problem, I think the people in my company will be happy to do it. But my kung fu movies are different from theirs. I'm not sure the North American audience will like it. ”

Today's popular kung fu movies in the North American market or the Western market are either Bruce Lee movies, or the old Shaw Brothers martial arts films, hard bridges and hard horses.

Wu Xiaozu's kung fu films are relatively more "sci-fi" for foreigners.

Flying around, their brain cells won't understand.

At this time, cultural exchanges between the East and the West were not as frequent as in later generations. At this time, the aesthetics are difficult to understand with each other.

It's as if it's hard for us to understand that the other party is holding a 'lamp' and pretending to be hunting~ they won't understand that we are holding a sword...... Xiu~Xiu~Xiu pretended to be a superman in the sky, and his clothes were fluttering, which was not good at all~

The difference is significant.

He didn't want martial arts films to be introduced for distribution in North America, but he could give video tape distribution a try.

"How do you know if you don't give it a try~ I think you'll definitely have a different way. ”

Harvey complimented and looked not far away, "Actually, I have a reluctant invitation to come this time." ”

Wu Xiaozu took a cigar cut in his hand and looked over curiously.

I saw Su Liyao leading a twenty-...... Forehead...... Thirty...... It was as if a young man of forty years old had come over.

The hair volume is barren, but the appearance and state are very young.

"This was introduced to a young man I knew by a friend in the circle, whose father was an old friend of my family elders. When I heard that I was coming to visit you, I came with me and brought a movie...... Well, let me describe that film as a 'movie'. ”

Harvey said, looking at Wu Xiaozu teasingly, "He should be your admirer!

"Are you sure this is a young man?" Wu Xiaozu pointed to his head.

Harvey looked at the other party's hair volume~ shrugged his shoulders and said, "Sorry man, although he doesn't look that young, I dare to assure you that his age is definitely not more than 35 years old!"

"Is he a computer engineer?" Wu Xiaozu couldn't help but ask. This is clearly a senior IT man!!

Harvey was stunned and didn't understand why Wu Xiaozu asked, but he still said, "I'm not sure if he is a computer practitioner." ”

As he spoke, a ******balding young man in a plaid shirt and jeans approached.
