Chapter 502: Wu Jing's Vision, the Right to Script Satisfaction!
If a person is in a different position, then the perception and mood of the same thing will definitely be different.
Xie Tingfeng will be full of envy, jealousy and hatred for Brother Chic, that is because his 'status in the rivers and lakes' is already very high, at least in the Chinese film industry, he is indeed a well-deserved 'little king', except for a certain pervert who opens a golden finger, only a few people such as Jay Chou and Wu Yanzu can compare with him.
Therefore, he really cares about someone's strong rise, even if he knows that this idea is asking for trouble, but he still can't turn a blind eye and listen to it, and always subconsciously thinks of one point: He debuted 10 years later than me, but it only took a year, but he did far more than his own 10 years of efforts.
yes, it's sad to think about!
It took you 10 years to work hard, and then you barely became the "successor of the king", but people only appeared for the first year, and now the outside world uses the titles of "Asian king" and "world superstar" to represent him, how can this not make people sad?
Little Shoes Children's Shoes were saddened by envy, jealousy and hatred, but Wu Jing didn't have this thought, not at all.
Even, he didn't have envy and jealousy at all, only incomparably excited!
"An action/adventure movie with a bit of magic? And Tang Xiao is the leading actor? That...... How about if I could join in and play a supporting role? ”
Wu Jing really trembled uncontrollably, because he knew very well that he had long been labeled as a "star", some movies that tested his acting skills too much. Not to mention that the director won't invite him, even he himself is not very confident that he can act well.
Therefore, he has long understood his future path, which is to keep going in action movies, and to get better and better.
So the problem is, if you want to develop smoothly in the field of action movies, and get better and better, you have to make some big moves, or just like Li Lianjie, because he starred in "Shaolin Temple" in a daze. The result was a real hit all over the country and Asia overnight.
Another way. Just like Jackie Fang, due to his rise in the golden age of Hong Kong films, he was able to truly establish his status as the No. 1 Chinese action superstar through nearly 60 action movies that he shot non-stop for decades.
But. There is really no way to go on either path. Especially Cheng Long's road. There is no way to repeat it at all, after all, Hong Kong movies are dying in recent years, and mainland films have also been impacted by Hollywood and Korean films. Old-fashioned action movies have no market value at all, and who will watch outdated things?
Therefore, Wu Jing believes that he only has Li Lianjie's road to development to learn from, that is, to strive to meet a good script and a good role, and then rise strongly as soon as he turns over, completely establishing his status in the field of Chinese action films.
It's easy to conceive, but how can a good script and a good character be so easy to come across?
Besides, there are two bigger action superstars in front of him, Li Lianjie and Zhen Zidan, and there are a large number of martial arts stand-ins and martial arts champions who are screaming to seize the position.
Therefore, he always feels that his assumptions are completely utopian, and he has no chance to encounter such a good thing, so he still has to walk on the road of evil villains, and go further and further, one day he will become the best action villain actor, and then he will never be able to turn over.
But God is pitiful, after he heard Tang Xiaosheng say the phrase 'action/adventure film with a little magic', his heart was immediately excited, and he instantly thought of a possibility: Maybe I can also go to Hollywood to make an appearance?
Yes, people who don't want to climb up are either incapable or just eating and waiting to die, but it is obvious that Wu Jing is definitely not such a person, he dreams of surpassing Zhen Zidan, Li Lianjie, and then surpassing Fang Chenglong and becoming a new generation of 'King of Chinese Film Action'.
And if you want to complete this dream and goal that is destined to be very difficult, it is obviously impossible in the domestic and Hong Kong film circles, because the action movies in the Chinese film industry really can't come out with new ones, no matter how hard and tiring the filming is, fans also feel that it is nothing more than that, and sigh regretfully: It's over, domestic action movies are not good at all!
So, a flash of inspiration suddenly popped into his mind: What if I could go to Hollywood to film? What if I could also join this magic/action/adventure film with Tang Xiaoshi, which requires a lot of money?
Yes, because of the difference between him and Xiao Xie Tongshoe's 'status in the film industry', he has never had jealousy and hatred at all, at most he is envious of someone's good brain and good luck, and he actually has so many performing arts, because he is so versatile, so that the number of fans is scary. Then, when he was about to participate in the movie, he happened to meet Chen Musheng and "The True Colors of Men", a very suitable work, and as a result, he really became an international superstar with global box office appeal.
Therefore, he found an opportunity very clearly, an opportunity that might be able to go further and help him pry open the door to Hollywood.
You must know that the reason why Fang Chenglong and Li Lianjie were able to enter Hollywood, and then from unworthy international kung fu superstars to veritable international superstars, is precisely because their works have been released all over the world, large and small, and many producers and directors in Hollywood almost know them, so the two of them can receive the call of Hollywood and smoothly change from Asian action superstars to world action superstars.
And Wu Jing wants to reach their step, to be honest, it's really difficult, because the Yankees are very arrogant, they rarely watch foreign language movies, and in this era, they still want to learn from Bruce Lee, relying on Chinese action movies alone to break into Hollywood, and sell well to become the box office champion and runner-up of the year, it is simply a dream.
Therefore, if he wants to do this, the only way to do this is to try to join a Hollywood movie that is invested by a Hollywood studio, and then, as long as he performs well in the movie, then once the movie is released, the next movie will not have to worry at all, and there will definitely be relevant crews coming to the door.
In that way, even if he has a foothold in Hollywood, the mecca of movies, if he goes back to the mainland or Hong Kong, he will be a proper international action star! Not to mention that the price of salary and endorsements has definitely risen sharply, if you want to be the protagonist of an action movie, there must be hope, and it will definitely not be like now, 9 out of 10 books are called villains, and almost all of them are ruthless perverted types.
So, in addition to the name of the fang group who didn't know what he was thinking, Wu Jing turned out to be the most sober of the several main creators, and he asked with a smile: "Chic, are you a Chinese actor in this play?" ”
"I don't know yet!"
Brother Xiao shook his head and said in a muffled voice: "The script has not been officially decided yet, mainly because some of the storylines are too weak, I asked them to take it back and revise it again, and it will take about two weeks to ......"
"You still have the right to let them change the script?"
Brother Xiaoxiao's explanation was interrupted, because Chen Musheng said in disbelief: "Hollywood generally doesn't revise the script, as long as the producer and director have no opinion, how do you negotiate the contract?" Is there such a good thing? ”
As soon as his words fell, before Brother Chic could speak, Jiang Zhiqiang said in disbelief: "Universal Pictures seems to be really super optimistic about you!" actually gave you the 'right to be satisfied with the script', this is the patent of a real superstar, among the many male stars in Hollywood, there are at most less than 25 people with this qualification, which is amazing! ”
Brother Chic smiled, glanced at Wu Jing meaningfully, and then nodded and said: "The reason why I agreed to sign a film contract with Universal instead of Warner and Sony, 20th Century Fox, etc., is because they took the initiative to give me the 'right to be satisfied with the script'." ”
After a pause, he glanced at the many guests who gradually quieted down, and suddenly whispered: "The contract is written, if I am not satisfied with the script, then this drama will not start filming, and I will definitely let them revise it until I am satisfied!" ”
"Wise choice!" Jiang Zhiqiang couldn't help but give a thumbs up! (To be continued......)
