Lin Zixuan's purpose in doing this is very simple, that is, to make Barbara understand that this film is led by Good Dreams, and it will not compromise like filming "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon". Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

In fact, the configuration of this film is not low.

Feng Xiaogang and Jiang Wen are big directors in China, and their cooperation and complementarity are likely to produce a wonderful chemical reaction.

Chen Daoming, Wang Zhiwen, Yu Feihong and Xu Jinglei will all join.

They are responsible for the acting part, and there is another person in charge of martial arts, Lin Zixuan found Zhao Wenzhuo.

Zhao Wenzhuo used to be a martial arts champion in the mainland, and later entered the showbiz, made many martial arts films, and has a certain reputation, but he is far from Li Lianjie.

There are many reasons for this, but the most important is the opportunity.

Li Lianjie debuted early, caught up with the good time, and became popular all over the country as soon as he debuted, and his development in Xiangjiang was even smoother, and he starred in many blockbuster films.

In recent years, he has become famous in Hollywood and has become a kung fu superstar, with a salary of more than 10 million US dollars.

After Li Lianjie became famous, many people in the mainland martial arts team followed his example and went to Xiangjiang to shoot kung fu films, wanting to become kung fu stars, but the results were not satisfactory.

Some people can only play supporting roles in movies, and even fall to the point of martial arts stand-ins.

It can be seen that the same people do not have the same fate.

It's not that you're a martial arts champion, I'm also a martial arts champion, if you become a big star, I can also become a big star.

The opportunities in life are unpredictable, the martial arts champion is just the starting point, no good film has been encountered, no one has to support it, so he can only be unknown and become a supporting role.

Many people say that they are Li Lianjie's junior brother, a martial arts team, but the junior brother can only be the junior brother.

Li Lianjie gets 10 million US dollars for a play, and his junior brother gets a salary of several thousand yuan for a play, which is a world of difference.

Relatively speaking, Zhao Wenzhuo's opportunities are good.

Heung Kong's film company is ready to make him the successor of Li Lianjie, from playing a supporting role in Li Lianjie's movies to playing the leading role himself, and gradually becoming well-known to the audience.

However, this class was not easy to accept, and he failed to break into the Western market and become an international superstar.

There are many factors that go into this, including relationships and social resources.

One of them is that it is difficult for the Western market to accommodate two Chinese martial arts actors with the same characteristics.

Cheng Long and Li Lianjie's routines are different, he takes the route of comedy kung fu films, and Li Lianjie takes the route of tough guy kung fu films, which is similar to the previous Li Xiaolong's path.

Li Xiaolong had a lot of influence in the West, but unfortunately died young.

Li Lianjie just made up for this gap, and his fights increased the ornamentation on the basis of ferocity, and they were more chic and neat, and the audience enjoyed watching them.

In this case, it is difficult for other martial arts actors to break into the Western market, whether they are learning from Cheng Long or Li Lianjie.

In other words, as long as the two of them are there, the chances of other martial arts actors are slim.

The market for kung fu movies in the West is not large, and one or two kung fu superstars are enough.

Western audiences will think that since there is Li Lianjie, why should they watch actors like Li Lianjie.

Hollywood directors will first look for Li Lianjie when choosing Chinese martial arts actors, and only the roles that Li Lianjie doesn't want can be the turn of others.

This is the sadness of actors of the same type.

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" has been successful in the West because the martial arts scenes in the film are neither Cheng Long's comedy kung fu films nor Li Lianjie's tough-guy kung fu films.

It is a kind of kung fu film with a literary style.

Western audiences feel fresh, which is one of the reasons for its success, but this freshness has a degree, and when you watch too many films of this type, you will get tired of it.

"Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is off to a good start, and this kind of film will have a market overseas in the next two or three years.

Good Dreams followed the trend to make a "Hero", and two years later made a sequel to "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon".

Next, it depends on the specific situation, there may be a market in China, and overseas is basically saturated, after all, it is not only a film company called Good Dream.

When other film companies see that they can make money, they will also shoot martial arts films.

This is the same as what happened to actors of the same genre, and the same is true for movies of the same genre.

One more thing to worry about, don't underestimate Hollywood's ability to absorb foreign cultures.

Seeing the popularity of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", Hollywood filmmakers will notice, absorb, and introduce the martial arts skills of martial arts films, and then improve them.

They used Wia and tricks in the movie, and white actors imitated oriental-style fights.

Coupled with Hollywood's sophisticated special effects, the improved ones can fully meet the needs of Western audiences.

At that time, this type of martial arts film lost its competitiveness overseas.

Of course, you can't stop making films because you're worried, Hollywood can learn and innovate, and so can Chinese films.

That is the problem to be faced in the future, and now that the situation is very good, Lin Zixuan feels that the Columbia company will invest, which is a money-making project.

Other film and television companies are still waiting, and Good Dream Company is ahead.

With "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", Chen Daoming and Yu Feihong and others have become quite famous in the West.

This is Lin Zixuan's confidence, and other companies do not have this advantage.

"Mr. Lin, this is an era of globalization, Hollywood and Hong Kong have advantages in the film industry, there are a group of excellent actors, we should look at the long-term and win-win cooperation. Barbara persuaded.

"There are some areas where I will cooperate, and there are areas where I will persevere. Lin Zixuan responded.

In Barbara's opinion, Lin Zixuan's personality is quite contradictory.

It can be said that he is an adventurist, who dares to invest in the filming of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and does many things that Chinese filmmakers dare not do, and has a long-term vision.

It can also be said that he is a conservative, according to the Chinese, that is, the consciousness of the small circle is too strong.

He is very cautious and conservative in cooperation, has a strong sense of region, and is somewhat stubborn and idealistic.

Barbara did a personality analysis of Lin Zixuan, believing that Lin Zixuan's contradictory personality came from his profession.

Lin Zixuan has a dual career, one is the owner of a film and television company, and the other is a writer.

The owner of the film and television company gave him a long-term vision, and the writer brought him a stubborn and idealistic side.

He came from a middle-class family, was well-educated, had a wife from a bureaucratic family, and worked in the government department, so it was inevitable that he would be tainted with a conservative bureaucratic mentality.

This may be the reason why Lin Zixuan's personality is complicated.

When Barbara left the capital, the two sides did not reach an agreement, but only negotiated a rough framework.

Columbia Pictures will invest in "Heroes" and the exact amount will be determined by the company's market analysts.

If Li Lianjie is the starring role, they will have more confidence in the film, and they are thinking about the Western market.

Lin Zixuan believes that as "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" wins more awards during the awards season, the more interested Hollywood studios will be in "Hero", and he is not in a hurry.
