Lin Xiao nodded and didn't say much.

Ang Lee, this year will walk on the peak of his life, although the "Broken Arm Mountain" was hit by the "crash", which scared the attention of everyone in the industry, but it can't hide the excitement of the Broken Arm Mountain. However, as China's troika overseas: Ang Lee, Wu Yusen, Cheng Long. Wu Yusen has not had such a good time in the past two years.

02 Wind Whisperer, as MGM's last fight, huge investment, invited director Wu Yusen, the father of the internationally famous "aesthetics of violence", superstar and his old partner Nicolas Cage to join, on the third day of release, it is almost certain that the bleak ending.

This directly led to the acquisition of MGM, and Wu Yusen was also questioned for a while.

In the past two years, he has been at ease and has not taken on movies, according to the rules of Hollywood, every chance of failure of the director is extremely precious, because of the failure of his wind talker, MGM was acquired, this statement, quite ugly, but also quite stinging.

In '05, he won the Cannes Lifetime Achievement Award, which was a small consolation.

"Actually, it's they who want to see you." Nolan didn't shy away from those present, either: "They're only in Iceland for one day. ”

"I'll see them right away." Lin Xiao nodded and said.

The other party can be regarded as the most well-known Chinese film and television person in the world, and it is impossible for him not to see him.

The place where they met was in Lin Xiao's dormitory, and when they were in the past, Li An, who had met once, and a man with a somewhat bald head and big ears, also sat in the room.

Wu Yusen's face was majestic, but he said very humorously, "Lin Xiao, this circle is actually very small, we haven't met in China, but we have met on the final battlefield in Hollywood, it's really a place in life where we don't meet." ”

"Teacher Li, Teacher Wu." For the two seniors, Lin Xiao showed the respect he deserved: "It's a great honor to meet you." ”

"How does Hollywood feel?" Ang Lee and Lin Xiao are familiar with each other, and they built a bridge, "Director Nolan only spoke to me on the phone yesterday, and I am looking forward to you." ”

"It feels pretty good." Lin Xiao sat down with a smile, "I understand that such a large-scale film is a rare opportunity for me." I cherish it very much. ”

Wu Yusen looked at him with a smile and said, "Just cherish it, do you know that half of your role comes from your identity as the largest shareholder of Shuguang." ”

He went on to say, "In the United States, Dawn cannot be as unique as the Asia-Pacific region, where the antitrust law is very strict, I dare say, it won't be long before a new video website will appear, maybe it will be called Dawn, maybe it will be called Chaoyang, who knows." ”

Ang Lee also said, "It doesn't seem to have anything to do with you, but it's actually very related, if you take a wrong step abroad, your image will immediately be equated with Dawn, giving your opponent the opportunity to attack you." Your opponent is definitely not ordinary, there is no leader who does not want to take the dawn under his command, but you remember that behind Hollywood is Wall Street, and Sequoia is a big Wall Street, as long as Sequoia does not fall, you don't give them a chance, you can delay the time for the new video website to come out again and again. ”

Lin Xiao was a little stunned, he didn't expect that the other party came to him with this kind of mention.

It is a reminder, not a heart-to-heart talk, not a concern, or both, but more of a warning from the older generation of Chinese filmmakers to new mountaineers.

"With the identity of Dawn, this is your biggest reliance on receiving this role, and it is also your biggest reliance on Hollywood in the future." Wu Yusen sighed and said, "120 million, Warner Investment, Zhou Runfa, Li Lianjie, why don't they want to?" But I can tell you that their resumes were rejected in the first round. ”

The eyes of both of them were very cautious, "Lin Xiao, you are the latest and most promising, like your old-timer Cheng Long, an artist who has really entered the Hollywood system, you must hold the cards in your hand and take it well!" ”

"Dawn in the United States is destined to be as windy and rainy as in China, but if you master the scale, it is the biggest killer! Don't use it easily, once you do, you must be a blockbuster, and you can't give your opponent a chance to attack! ”

"The dawn is dormant now." Wu Yusen continued, "I can see that Sequoia is very careful, this thing has shaken the cornerstone of the film and television industry, and has long become the focus of the anti-monopoly department. If you dare to do this in the United States, I am afraid that the next day the Big Six will pull you to court together, and then use hundreds of lawyers to fight you to the end! ”

"The Big Six shot together, which guild, association, even Sequoia probably wouldn't dare to take it randomly, which is tantamount to setting off a confrontation between Hollywood and a company."

After they finished speaking, Lin Xiao's heart was no longer calm.

He was a little moved, but he didn't expect that even if the other party came to pick up the wind and talk to him on the way, he was so genuinely concerned.

For no other reason, because they are from the same motherland, these two great directors who have already gained a foothold in the international film industry have personally said these words to the artists who are "the most promising to break into the Hollywood system" in their eyes.

"Haha, we're nagging." Li An smiled and said, "Don't think about it, this time it's Lao Wu who is going to come to collect wind, passing by, it's really just passing by, and then I remembered a junior in China, a very courageous junior, who is climbing this giant peak, so I came to see you." ”

"See you next time, I don't know when." Wu Yusen also smiled and said, "Lin Xiao, the voice of the Chinese in the international film industry is too small and too weak, we hope that more people can make our voices heard." ”

He glanced at Ang Lee, "We are all very optimistic about you." Because, you are holding nuclear weapons to break into Hollywood, and Li Lianjie and Zhou Yunfa are all different, and even if you don't reach the point where they were back then, your starting point in Hollywood is much higher than them. ”

"Okay, we'll be here for a while." Ang Lee smiled and said, "What? Don't you really want to think about my Broken Arm Mountain? ”

Lin Xiao's emotion suddenly turned into a sad face.

Director Li ...... This ......"

"Haha, I understand, nothing." Li An smiled: "I'm just asking." ”

"I'll talk to Nolan again when I have time in the future, he's a talented person, and this film may be his take-off point." Wu Yusen looked at his watch, "Lao Li, it's time to go, the young man has his own way of wandering, we shouldn't care too much." ”

"Hmm." Li An nodded, turned around and smiled, "Lin Xiao, goodbye, I hope that the next time we meet, you can still be active in the world of Hollywood." ”

The two got up and left, but Lin Xiao's face became solemn.

The other party specially came over to warn him, it is fake not to be moved, with the identity of these two people, he may be able to catch up with him in China, but in the world, he will definitely not be able to catch up with the other party.

If there were, he didn't know whether to say it or not.

Just as the two of them were about to step out of the door, he finally chose to speak.

"Two teachers, please wait a minute!"

"Oh? Anything else? Li An turned around with a smile, only to find that Lin Xiao's face was full of solemnity.

He and Wu Yusen glanced at each other, and immediately knew that Lin Xiao probably had something very important, but it was difficult to talk about.

Wu Yusen closed the door knowingly.

The three of them sat down again.

No one spoke first, Lin Xiao was also thinking about it, and suddenly, Li An spoke.

"Lin Xiao, if you don't know whether to say it or not, don't say it, otherwise it will be difficult to do, but it will give birth to everyone's relationship."

"We look at you, just like Zhou Runfa and Li Lianjie back then." Wu Yusen also spoke, "Zhou Yanfa, I picked it up with one hand, and I like his understanding of my film." And you are very similar to when he was full of ambition to enter Hollywood. That's why I came to see you. ”

"There are few Chinese in the international film industry, but it doesn't mean that there are none. And even more and more later. Ang Lee reminded.

Lin Xiao smiled bitterly, it seemed that the two of them thought that he was going to ask the two for help.

"Although there are some things that are difficult to say, I will also say them." After thinking for a long time, he finally spoke.

"Two teachers, why did you focus on Hollywood?"

When this question came out, both of them had a wry smile on their faces, they looked at each other in unison, and said almost without hesitation, "Don't you know?" Why did you break into Hollywood? ”

"China can't produce superstars." Li An sighed, "It's not that I don't love the motherland, but to seek truth from facts." ”

"As for why, everyone is their own people, open the window and say bright words. The world now is a world dominated by strength. To put it bluntly, a big fist makes sense. The United States has been a world policeman for so many years, managing everything and everything, and making a name for itself. If you look at the real developed countries now, which one was not fought in World War II? ”

"When the United States is strong, he can make rules, everything is subject to him, and what is American is the world. It's sour, it's very resentful, but that's basically it. ”

"The entertainment industry is only a very small piece. There are many similar situations. Wu Yusen smiled bitterly: "Why doesn't China want to make rules for the entertainment industry?" But, seriously, now China does not have this strength. ”

The United States has the strength to promote its culture to every corner of the world, so as to drive the gold attraction effect, so that more talents will gather in Hollywood, more and more. It's like snowballing. Ang Lee also shook his head, "No solution...... Unless China has the strength to make the rules. Otherwise, to become a recognized superstar...... Great directors can only come to Hollywood...... We're not reconciled...... However, in China, just like you, it has developed to an extreme, what are we doing? Knowing that there is a place that is the temple of the world, will those who really love film and television deliberately not see it? ”

"So, here we are......"

"You don't have any illusions about making a Hollywood blockbuster in China." Wu Yusen went on to say, "China can produce blockbusters, but it is definitely not a blockbuster recognized by the world like Hollywood, first of all, there is no complete promotion system in China, but there is a strict review system, the nationalization of enterprises, and even more suppressed by the government, all kinds of rules and regulations, even if you have the script of Jurassic Park, with Spielberg's technology, you can't shoot Jurassic Park." ”
