Chapter 1483 Going to Hollywood?

Like last year, Hong Kong's economic downturn has hardly affected the entertainment industry.

For example, the new season of "Hong Kong Idol", which started in February this year, received an unprecedented 80 million viewers and became the number one music talent show in Asia. This is a clear proof.

"The Deer and the Cauldron", which premiered in August, reached a viewership of 100 million, setting another unprecedented record.

A large part of the reason for the success of "The Deer and the Cauldron" is that it is Jin Yong's most relaxing novel.

People today may not realize it, but those elites on the Internet in later generations analyzed Jin Yong's 14 novels when they had nothing to do.

They discovered that most of what Jin Yong wrote were tragedies, and he actually had little hope for human nature.

To break it down, whether it is Linghu Chong and his junior sister, Zhang Wuji and Zhou Zhiruo, Huang Rong and Guo Jing, Yang Guo and Xiao Longnu, Hu Fei and Yuan Ziyi, Xiao Feng, A'Zhu and A'Zi...the fate of these protagonists is actually different. not good.

But you can't say that Jin Yong is a pure pessimist, because he finally wrote "The Deer and the Cauldron".

Never mind that in order to sell books later, Jin Yong tried to end "The Deer and the Cauldron" tragically several times. For a long time, "The Deer and the Cauldron" was the most favorite martial arts novel among young Jin Yong fans.

Wei Xiaobao was not a gentleman, but a gangster, but he was very loyal and very lucky. He was always able to turn disaster into good fortune, and he ended up marrying 7 wives.

All these experiences have made many young people feel that Wei Xiaobao is actually similar to themselves, not as unattainable as Xiao Daxia, Guo Daxia, Zhang Jiaozhu, and Linghu Shaoxia.

It seems that if you go alone, you can look like Wei Xiaobao.

The strong sense of immersion makes "The Deer and the Cauldron" very popular from the time it was published to the present.

When Yin Jun adapted "The Deer and the Cauldron", he carefully laid out the Liang Chaowei version, Zhang Weijian's version, and Huang Xiaoming's version, and gathered the strengths of all the writers before finally completing the script.

In addition, Xiao Sheng's personal supervision, the passionate performances of many stars, and the no expense spared to go to the mainland for filming... These are all powerful bonus points.

Finally, the number of viewers of "The Deer and the Cauldron" exceeded 100 million, and there was another coincidence.

That was the release of "Happy Ghost 2" in those two months, plus the release of the new album of the Happy Girl group, and their concerts, all of which triggered a craze for fans.

Coincidentally, the Happy Girls group all performed in "The Deer and the Cauldron", so many young fans and fans flocked to the TV broadcasting army, contributing tens of millions of viewers.

Therefore, "The Deer and the Cauldron" has a few episodes that have exceeded 100 million viewers.

But no matter what, if it breaks 100 million, it is broken!

As soon as Nielsen Data Company's survey statistics came out, Kylin TV held a celebration party for "The Deer and the Cauldron" and rewarded relevant personnel heavily.

The second leading actor, Liu Dehua, who plays Kangxi, has become a super niche star that Kylin TV will strongly support in the next two to three years.

As for Tony Leung, the protagonist of No. 1, he has already escaped the scope of the small screen.

Because he not only proved himself in "The Deer and the Cauldron", he has become a new brother in the field of TV dramas, and also has his own wonderful works on the big screen.

"The Dirty Detective" certainly allowed Cannes best actor and Oscar nominee Chow Yun-fat to prove himself in commercial films again, but it also allowed the fledgling Tony Leung Chiu-wai to shine.

Playing an undercover agent, he was both good and evil, and seemed to have a sinister appeal. Many young male and female movie fans were directly attracted to him and admired him.

Especially female movie fans, for them, appearance is usually justice.

Of course Tony Leung is more handsome than Zhou Runfa, so naturally girls will like him.

A TV series with more than 100 million viewers.

A movie that has grossed over $300 million at the box office.

Taken together, it is no exaggeration to say that Tony Leung is one of the most popular stars in Asia recently.

At this time, it was spread that he was going to Hollywood and embarking on a journey to conquer Hollywood. I don’t know how many people were rejoicing.

According to gossip entertainment news reports, everyone knows that Tony Leung, like Leslie Cheung, is a good friend of Yin Jun.

Going to Hollywood, with Yin Jun's support, Tony Leung is going to become popular all over the world!

However, in fact, Liang Chaowei himself did not think so.

Liang Chaowei is a very smart person, but he is also a very self-aware person.

In his previous life, he had no delusions about breaking out of Asia and going to the whole world.

He just consolidated his base in Asia. Even later, due to psychological problems, he would not take on a movie for two or three years and lived a leisurely and relaxed life.

Although such a person does not have a net worth of billions like Hua Tsai, he is not as tired as Hua Tsai.

For example, now, when Yin Jun is practicing for him, Liang Chaowei does not show so much confidence and excitement outside.

"Master Jun, do you think it's okay for me to go this time?" Liang Chaowei said slightly worriedly while drinking.

"What? I see you are still very confident when answering reporters' questions!" Yin Jun joked with a smile, "Our number one rising star in Asia, is he still afraid of these things?"

"I'm not afraid, I'm just worried that the two cultures will clash and I won't be able to act well in the movie." Tony Leung coughed lightly and said, "Isn't this also embarrassing for us Xiangjiang people and embarrassing for you?"

"You think too much."

Yin Jun shook his head, "I'm not asking you to act in a movie like "The Shawshank Redemption." "Mission: Impossible" is an action movie about pretending to be handsome and cool. You can't be Zhou Runfa now, but you can't be better. Cheng Long?"

Liang Chaowei quickly waved his hand, "Master Jun, don't praise me so much. Compared to Cheng Long, I'm far, far behind!"

Cheng Long's new film "Die Hard" will be released worldwide in early September.

This movie itself is an action classic. With the partnership of James Cameron and Cheng Long, and jointly distributed by Disney and United Artists Films, it has been released on about 4,000 screens. It became extremely popular as soon as it came out.

The North American box office grossed 62 million U.S. dollars in its first weekend, and it also grossed 47 million U.S. dollars in the second week that just passed. The drop was only 25%, which shows the strong reputation.

In fact, North American film critics are talking about it. If this action film was shot by another American star instead of Cheng Long, even Eddie Murphy, I am afraid that the box office would be two times higher. thirty million.

But Cheng Long has not only made a name for himself in the United States, but has also received good news in markets such as Hong Kong, Asia, Europe and the United States, which were simultaneously released.

It took in 200 million at the box office in Asia in its first week, which is almost higher than "The Dirty Detective" which specializes in the Asian market.

It also took in 20 million US dollars in the first weekend in Europe, making Cheng Long's global kung fu star brand even louder.

Globally speaking, the number one star in Asia is definitely Zhou Runfa, but the one who is most loved by the audience is definitely Cheng Long.

Yin Jun compared Liang Chaowei to Cheng Long, which was completely a compliment to Liang Chaowei.

"What is there that you dare not compare with?" Yin Jun smiled, "Wei Zai, your ambition is not strong enough. Do you know what Hua Zai would say to me if I was in front of me now?"

"He would say, Don't worry, Mr. Jun, even if I risk my life not to do it, I will definitely make every film you give me." Liang Chaowei said it smoothly.

"Ha ha!"

Yin Jun smiled when he heard this.

This is indeed Liu Dehua's style.

But it's not that Liu Dehua is acting out, in fact he will do this.

Andy, a model worker in the entertainment industry, does not deserve his fame in vain.

"Cheng Long's success is due to his consistent hard work. The suffering and injuries he has suffered are not something ordinary people can bear." After laughing, Yin Jun said, "I don't ask you to endure hardships like him." , but I also hope that you can represent another performing arts force in Hong Kong and go to Hollywood to make a name for yourself, so that foreigners can see how diverse and outstanding our Hong Kong stars are!"

"Which type do I belong to?" Liang Chaowei became curious.

"Idol-style action stars." Yin Jun said without thinking, "Cheng Long, Hong Jinbao and Yuan Biao are all humorous action stars; Zhou Runfa and Liang Jiahui are acting stars who follow the line of powerful performance; you and Hua He can become a commercial production star with great popularity and good looks, but he can also act cool."

"Then it would be good if I starred in some romance films and comedies?" Tony Leung shrugged.

"Although romance films and comedies are good, they can never reach the top level." Yin Jun said, "Your good friend Zhou Xingchi is a good candidate for comedy films, but you are not. You should concentrate on acting as an idol. Be a superstar!”

"Xing Zai?"

Liang Chaowei was stunned. If it weren't for Yin Jun sitting in front of him, he would definitely laugh.

That taciturn and dull-spoken star boy is actually a good candidate for comedy?

How did Yin Jun see it! ?

He really wanted to ask, but Yin Jun talked about something else, "This time you go to Hollywood, and you will be working with Bruckheimer. He has rich experience in commercial film production. You should learn more on the crew and don't be afraid of hardship!" As long as you make this movie, you will have a place in Hollywood for the next 30 years!"

"You sound like I won't endure hardship." Liang Chaowei patted his chest, "Don't worry! I will definitely take this movie seriously! I can't waste the movie you specially prepared for me, Mr. Jun. ah!"

Tony Leung is not a lazy person.

Although he likes beautiful women and is greedy for pleasure, he is very serious at heart, otherwise he would not be able to rush to the front line so quickly.

Tony Leung Chiu Wai can become the leader of the new generation, definitely not just because he filmed Yin Jun's works.

Of course Yin Jun knew this.

Therefore, he was basically very relieved about Liang Chaowei, and the current instructions were because he was afraid that he would have some communication problems due to poor communication.

As for Hollywood, Yin Jun is even less worried.

It also belongs to their own company, and it was a gift from Yin Jun to Shirley, the new president of the film division of the North American branch of the Kirin Group. They will only pay more attention to it and will never neglect the leading actor who came from Hong Kong!

Shirley Lansing wants to take her first shot in office, and she will certainly support her with all kinds of resources.

A super producer like Bruckheimer can make good movies as long as you don't hold him back, let alone give him a lot of support.

With such good conditions, "Mission: Impossible" will definitely be much better than the previous version of Tom Cruise!

Yin Jun also hopes that Tony Leung will be able to establish a foothold in Hollywood with this very cute and handsome agent role, paving the way for his subsequent career!

The stars in Xiangjiang will become more influential only if they go out more often!
