"I don't think it's impossible!" Lin Mu looked at James Cameron rather mysteriously, "Actually, I've prepared a Christmas gift for you!" ”

"Xylon, it's just over two months before Christmas!" James Cameron doesn't know what medicine is sold in the forest gourd. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

"So you have to hurry up and finish all the post-production in these two months, and I'll give you a complete surprise when the time comes!" Lin Mu is not ready to reveal the mystery now, just like the promotion of the movie, the suspense is always the most exciting!

Lin Mu's Christmas gift to James Cameron is actually a new film, and it is definitely a surprise for Ms Cameron. There is not a single movie. can be like this film, the pinnacle of steps. Ten years after the birth of this film. In the decade of rapid development of film technology and capital investment. All movies can still only look up to it. In the era when Lin Mu used to live. This film is a myth that no one in the history of film has been able to break.

Lin Mu said. It really caught James Cameron's appetite. But he didn't have the heart to think about it for the time being. Two sequels to Pirates of the Caribbean were filmed together. Although the special effects production is carried out in parallel with the location shooting. But the crew was under a lot of pressure. In particular, there are some shots that need to be done in the studio. James Cuarón's next work is more than just editing and compositing.

Among the crew members. Lin Chen also saw a figure that he hadn't seen for a long time. Yuan Heping, Zhou Fa and Zhen Zidan stood in the crowd. Laughing. There seems to be a very interesting topic being discussed.

"What are you talking about?" Lin Mu walked up. "You can't hide fun things from me!"

Mr. Lin laughed. We're complaining about each other! Yuan Ping explained. A few of them talked very well in the crew. Everyone is Chinese. So I often get together to chat after shooting. A few months down. They know each other very well. They had seen the trees for a long time. But seeing that he was talking to James Cameron. It's not good to go up and say hello. I didn't get to the woods, but I walked over by myself. "Did you get into any trouble in the crew?" Lin Mu frowned. James Cameron didn't mention to him anything wrong with these compatriots in the crew just now. Is it a private matter?

"Mr. Lin misunderstood. We just talked about our respective careers. That's why Director Yuan said this! Zhou Fa explained the misunderstanding in Yuan Heping's words.

"We all got along well with the crew. Fa Ge likes to teach them to speak Chinese when he is free! Zhen Zidan added with a smile.

"Problems with movement. It's still bothering Yuan Sheng! Lin Mu also learned some information from James Caron, and Yuan Heping was really careful in designing the actions of the film. Li An'an's picky James Cameron is also very satisfied. Lin Mu said that.

"That's what I eat. It's all about what you do. Mr. Lin said this politely! Yuan Heping was very grateful to Lin Mu for his words. Being a producer is as meticulous as he is. It's rare indeed.

"Has Zidan's injury been restored?" Lin Mu asked about Zhen Zidan's situation again. He knew that Zhen Dan had a slight injury to his arm during the recent filming.

"Just a little skin trauma. The doctors in the crew checked me every day. It's no big deal now! Zhen Zidan smiled, as an actor like this. It's normal to get injured in acting. Lin Mu asked. His heart was warm. "It's still necessary to pay attention to more repairs!" Lin Mu nodded reassuringly. 's gaze finally stayed on Zhou Fa's body. "Can Mr. Zhou adapt to the life of an American crew?"

"The pace of the shoot was tight. Everyone is very serious about work, but they are a little unaccustomed to eating at first! The American crew's work style left a deep impression on Zhou Fa. Tense and orderly. And it's very efficient. The acting is very cooperative with the director. The staff is very co-ordinated.

Because there are only three of them in the crew. So the food is all uniform. Yuan Heping and Zhen Dan are okay to say that both of them are used to this diet. But Zhou Fa was very unaccustomed to it. I used to have an occasional Western meal in Hong Kong, and it was nothing to sleep. But now I eat this stuff every day. It was difficult for Zhou Fa to adapt at first. In order to affect the quality of the shooting. James Cameron once offered to prepare a special Chinese meal for Zhou Fa. But Zhou Fa's image of the Chinese/Chinese represented by filming outside. Don't let others underestimate you. So he rejected the crew's proposal to open a small one for him alone.

"I know a lot of authentic Chinese restaurants in Los Angeles. Today I'm doing the East. It's kind of a dust wash for the three of you! Lin Mu also understood this situation, and as soon as Zhou Fa said this, he immediately proposed to have dinner with the three of them.

The crew gave everyone a half-day off. He Ping, Zhou Fa, and Zhen Zidan all accepted Lin Mu's invitation. Cheng Long and Ji Lihao, who have just finished filming "Detective Plane Head: Hong Kong Raiders", are also in Los Angeles. Lin Mu also invited the two of them by the way.

Yuan Heping and Jackie Chan and Tang Jili are very familiar with each other. Zhen Zidan also had a relationship with Cheng Long before, not to mention Zhou. Almost all of them here were his acquaintances. Lin Mu booked a private room in a well-known Chinese restaurant in Chinatown to entertain these Hong Kong filmmakers. Originally, he was going to call Li Anyu. but

Los Angeles is focused on filming, and there is no time to worry about other things for the time being.

"All of you here are outstanding representatives of Chinese cinema. I'd like to toast you all here! Lin Mu stood up. He knew that these people in the box were all shining characters in the future of Chinese films. "I propose for the sake of Chinese films. Let's have a toast! ”

Chinese/Chinese people are the easiest to get closer to each other at the wine table. The little restraint that everyone had was also wiped out with this glass of wine. As soon as the conversation opened. Except for Zhen Zidan, there are people here. They are very talkative people. Everyone first talked about some secret anecdotes about the Hong Kong entertainment industry. Chatting and talking. The topic turned to the future development of Chinese films.

In fact, at that time, Mr. Lin was mentioned in the crew to comment on Hong Kong movies. I feel a little resentful in my heart! Cheng Long drank a little slightly at this time. There is also a little less scruple in speaking. "Mr. Lam did not personally attend the Hong Kong Film Festival. I was very unconvinced to say those words! But then I thought about Lin Mu's words carefully. I feel that what I said is reasonable. The decline of Hong Kong cinema. In fact, all of us here are responsible! ”

Mr. Lin said that it was reasonable. But the bosses of Hong Kong film companies may not see it that way! I, Yuan Heping, don't convince people easily. But Mr. Lin is still in ability. All of them make me sincerely admire. If only Hong Kong movies could have characters like Mr. Lam. I'm afraid that at this time, Hong Kong movies can already compete with Hollywood! Yuan Heping took the dragon's words. There was a hint of expectation in his words.

"Mr. Yuan's words made me feel ashamed. The decline of Hong Kong cinema is due to various reasons. Even though I was born in Hong Kong. I'm afraid I won't be able to go back! "Lin Mu, this is not modest, after all, Hollywood has developed for so many years. Neither the foundation nor the strength of Hong Kong can be compared.

"Is it true that Hong Kong films are going to decline?" Zhou Fa asked worriedly. All of you here are Hong Kong artists. Although now they are at the Hollywood show. But the rise and fall of Hong Kong films is still closely related to their interests

"Has Mr. Lin considered going to Hong Kong to invest?" Tang Jili has been holding this question in his heart for a while. And then this hard opportunity. He finally brought the issue to the table. There is actually a subtext to his question. That is whether Lin Mu is willing to get involved in Hong Kong movies.

Others here are also concerned about this. When all eyes in the private room converged on Lin Mu. Lin Chen suddenly felt a lot of pressure. "Let's be honest. Now it's not difficult for me to buy a Hong Kong film company. But there are some factors that I can't decide. The most important thing is the attitude of the Chinese government after Hong Kong's return to the motherland. As long as there is a loose policy environment. Investing in Hong Kong is a yes. Even if the mainland's film market is open. Direct investment in the mainland is possible"

None of the people present said anything. None of the political issues are beyond their control. I saw that the atmosphere on the wine table was a little cold. Lin Mudao's own topic was a little sensitive. "Personally, I'm actually very optimistic about the future of Hong Kong. At least in terms of the overall policy leaning of the Chinese government. It is an indisputable fact that the market economic system has been established in China. This will determine Hong Kong's ability to have a strong economic rear after the handover. After all, Hong Kong is a special administrative region. In the formulation of many policies, it is believed that the Chinese/national government will fully consider their particularities. Moreover, Hong Kong's position in the world economy is special and important. The Chinese government should also take into account international attitudes. At least in my opinion. Sir, the idea of "one country, two systems" is feasible in Hong Kong! ”

Lin Yi said. The wine table was lively again. But it was a lively atmosphere. It is better to say that it is the vitality of the human mind. Before the handover of Hong Kong. A sense of sadness has spread across all walks of life in Hong Kong. The entertainment industry is no exception. There has even been some capital flight in Hong Kong. But Lin Mu said so. Let everyone here have a new understanding of Hong Kong's return.

The meaning in Lin Mu's words is very good. The return to the mainland is for Hong Kong Electric. It was an opportunity to regroup

"Actually, I'm personally more optimistic about the current model of Hollywood and Hong Kong filmmaking. Although the current collaboration is a collaboration that stays at the actor level. But it's also a great way to show Hong Kong movies to Hollywood! Lin Yi first looked at the actors present. Then his gaze stayed on Yuan Heping and Tang Jili. "At the director level, it has also been broken recently. Taiwan's director Ang Lee is shooting a new DreamWorks film in San Francisco. I believe that the day when Hong Kong directors will be used to shoot Hollywood films will not be too far away! ”

Ji Li and Yuan Heping both understood the meaning of Lin Mu's words, both of them are still only action directors at present, but Lin Mu knows that they are equally good at directing. Lin Mu clearly told Tang and Yuan that Hollywood will not bury Chinese film talents, as long as there is a suitable opportunity, Lin Mu will push them to the forefront, and it is not impossible to take charge of the director.

This rare gathering of Chinese filmmakers in the United States is naturally happy in the end, but Cheng Long, Zhen Zidan and Zhou Fa have different plans next. This cooperation with Hollywood has strengthened Cheng Long's plan to develop in Hollywood, and for the remaining two months of the year, he will stay in the United States to cooperate with the promotion of the film "Detective Plane Head: Hong Kong Raiders", and he has no plans to leave the United States for the time being before Christmas. Cheng Long is now actively looking for a suitable film contract, and he is ready to use his fists and feet to create a sky of his own in Hollywood.

Just when Cheng Long was actively planning his Hollywood road, Zhen Zidan was ready to go back to Hong Kong. After the filming of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series ended, he did not take on other Hollywood films for the time being, and he planned to return to Hong Kong to make more Chinese-language films and consolidate his position in the Chinese-language film industry when he became popular internationally.

Although Zhen Zidan rarely speaks at the party, he is the one who thinks about it the most. Zhen Zidan judged from Lin Mu's words that although Chinese films are now underestimated, they are likely to make a comeback, and he must seize the time before this to establish his image in the Chinese film industry. And there is another advantage of going to Hong Kong to make movies, that is, he can become the absolute protagonist, and continue to choose to stay in Hollywood, first, there is no suitable film contract, and second, he has to continue to play supporting roles.

And Zhou Fa's idea is much simpler, he was only invited to Hollywood to film this time, and he has no plans to develop here for a long time. He had already taken on other films in Hong Kong before coming to the United States, and filming would start at the end of the year. So after he finished filming the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, he didn't plan to stay in the United States for long.

Tang Jili is ready to stay in the United States and continue to wait for opportunities, while Yuan Heping has already received invitations to several films, and he is in the process of choosing.

The hugely expensive "Pirates of the Caribbean" film has not only received widespread media attention, but also put a lot of pressure on Lin Mu from Paramount and Universal's executives, and the film has invested a lot of money in publicity, and Moes Cameron must complete the second part of the film before the New Year, and the blockbuster must be released in the New Year schedule to recoup the funds.

At the same time, the media also noted the film "Brave Island", which is being filmed intensively on the island of Akara, and Michael Bay himself is a controversial figure in the media, and his filming on the island of Akara has not stopped. "Death Island" is another big work of Paramount after the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series of films, and before it was released, public opinion was full of discussion about this blockbuster, and the film that is still being filmed is scheduled to be released next year, and is known as one of the most shocking films in the summer of 96.
