Chapter 890: The First Hollywood Commercial Film

The most difficult thing to grasp and show is the elegant and free-spirited look of male stars in ancient costumes. Long hair and clothes can easily make male actors look very frustrated. Fortunately, both of them are tall enough and have slender figures, so they look good in costumes.

Seeing the subversion of Qingtian, they happened to have the opportunity to reshoot. The two also had some opinions on the appearance of their characters, which were recognized by the crew and director. Although Lin Gengxin is a cute and silly boy in real life, his appearance and temperament are still very attractive in ancient costumes. Now he is capturing the feeling of Xu Ziling; Li Yifeng lacks masculinity, and he also deliberately uses bronze makeup to wipe off some traces of cream boys. For him, this play is also a challenge.

From hairstyles to accessories to clothing, after giving up the accuracy that history should have, the scope of adjustment is too large. In the end, it was completely tailored for the two people. The picture effect is very handsome. What I am worried about is the acceptance. Fortunately, there is a sunny version of Wanwan's poster to test the waters first, which has been recognized by the majority of young audiences. Think about Wong Yuk-long's comics that were also very popular back then. There are many modern things in the style, which everyone can accept. The key is that the whole feeling should be good-looking, and it should not be made out of place.

The promotion started, and posters of actors were thrown out one after another, satisfying the very strong visual requirements of young people. Most of the earliest fans of Huang Yi's novels are now in their forties and have a strong ability to accept new things. Huang Yi himself has many subversions in his descriptions of novels, and his positioning of the character background of historical figures is also different from that of ordinary people. There are praises and criticisms, and very few are directly concluded as bad people. Although the whole set of books has flaws and some minor flaws, the overall feeling of anticipation is that many book fans remember waiting for a new book of only a hundred pages for a week or two or a month. It can be said that Huang Yi of that era is a model of modern fast-updating novels for real-time viewing. The difference is that there was no Internet in that era. Huang Yi wrote tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of words, and the publishing house published it immediately. Then all kinds of pirated copies swarmed in and filled bookstores and book rental bookstores across the country. Everyone rushed to read them, and then stamped their feet and beat their chests and waited for them to see enough.

After many years, Master Huang, as the leader of the new martial arts, has passed away. In today's explosion of online novels, everyone is used to adapting popular novels into film and television dramas. Suddenly, the retro Huang-style martial arts of the year was re-filmed. At first, everyone was a little worried about this topic. After the official filming, the expectations of the people born in the 1970s and 1980s at that time, as the backbone of society today, their expectations for this play soon became the motivation for Lele Company to film it.

To be honest, in today's online novel era, there are many masters of character portrayal, but there are almost no ones who can portray so many characters well at once. When there is a super large platform like Lele to provide actors, how the filming is done is still unknown, but the overall picture is good. The trailer gives people great expectations. There are no five-cent special effects, and the actors don't have poker faces. Then in reality, the promotion, posters, and Internet celebrities who came out of the Internet.

In the first two seasons, which took more than half a year to shoot, Li Yifeng and Lin Gengxin had the most say. They followed the invited veteran actors and witnessed the progress of the non-professional actors and the great enthusiasm that Lele put into this play. They took professional actor training classes for several months, and the content of the training was the content of the professional performance department of art schools. Today, when they stepped onto the stage of publicity, the batches of Internet celebrity actors who stood out one by one already had a good look and were very confident in their performances. This confidence was passed on to the fans on the Internet, which made the audience's expectations continue to rise. The early commercial value of this play, which had not been regarded as the focus, also gradually increased.

"I am looking forward to it, and I hope you are looking forward to it as much as I am."

Chen Hao has hardly advertised on his public accounts, including Lele and Weibo. His own works are all promoted normally on traditional media and online media. This time, he logged into all relevant accounts and posted this information one by one, including his Facebook. He promoted it once. He doesn't know the effect, but as a general investor and broadcasting platform like Lele, Lele's overseas branches have the demand to broadcast this film, and not only the Chinese community. This also made Lele Company set up a special team in a fully closed working environment to translate all the filmed episodes and come up with the most accurate English subtitle translation version. After the broadcast of "The Legend of the Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty", it will be broadcast on time every day in the overseas branches in the form of official live broadcast rooms for overseas audiences to watch.

…………………………

Fox sent the latest contract, which was basically in accordance with the conditions negotiated by Chen Hao's team. Looking at the script in his hand, Chen Hao felt that it was like a message from Carol and Murray: "Do you still dare to come to the United States?"

A salary of 10 million US dollars, and a certain percentage of the box office share after the movie reached 200 million in North American box office. This condition was given to a Chinese who had only made one movie in Hollywood and played a supporting role. Countless people felt that Fox was taking a risk, either failing to lose everything, or truly grasping the value of Chen Hao.

200 million, North American box office?

Let a yellow-skinned actor play the leading role in a film with a production and publicity of 100 million? The North American box office target is 200 million? Don’t you think too highly of his appeal? To say that China's box office is 100 million US dollars, maybe everyone still has some confidence. Who will buy their account in North America? Is it all the gay couples, one is openly gay Christine, one is the boss of the consortium Chen Hao, who is crazy about courting, is your film going to be shown to these people in the end?

Fox's response at the end was simple.

The crew of "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" was officially established, and the male and female protagonists officially joined the team and received intensive training from former Navy SEALs.

Externally, Fox has not announced the content of the story, and all cast and crew must promise to keep it secret. The curiosity of the outside world is that one is receiving combat training. So, will this film be a war film? But the name looks nothing like it.

Chen Hao signed the contract, knowing that there are tigers in the mountains, he preferred to travel to the mountains with tigers. If those two guys are his destined enemies, then avoiding them is never the best choice. Besides, he also likes the script. The director has paid homage to the gun battle film in Xiangjiang. meaning, but also has its own style. After reading the script, Chen Hao defined this film as a gorgeous commercial action-themed love drama. The main conflicts are concentrated on the male and female protagonists. The conflicts in various scenes are not afraid of , various very beautiful pictures appeared in Chen Hao's mind, especially the big scene between two people fighting at home. It was really a good idea that saved a script.

This is the first big-budget commercial film in which he truly chooses to be the male lead. In it, he will show off all his strengths, including sunshine, handsomeness, sexiness, and ferocity, whether it is fighting scenes or gun battles. Drama, these are not problems for Chen Hao. The King of Soldiers ability given by the system allows him to control such a role. Apart from sculpting how to make himself more beautiful, chic and handsome in the drama, there is nothing else to do. No need to think about it.

After signing the contract, he was about to join the crew for training. Chen Hao took Chen Gang and Kang Yan to fly to the United States. Qiu Yu was placed in the office of the Overseas Business Department of Joyous Times and was not allowed to follow him to the crew. The three of them would face any situation. They all have the ability to deal with each other. One more Qiu Yu is a huge drag. Chen Gang also worked as an assistant at the beginning and could meet some of Chen Hao's daily needs.

Playing conspiracy?

I accepted the move. I hope you can come up with new ideas. Don’t increase the difficulty in training. Don’t deliberately cause various problems in the filming to extend the schedule so that I can’t join the "Prison Break" team. Don’t use some small tricks. I will look down on you. Block my path to Hollywood, unless you two can override Fox, an established company, then I will leave, slowly complete the task, and get my own script to film. If you can't, then I'd like to see how many moves you can come up with. It's best if you can come up with something beyond my expectation, otherwise I will look down on you very much.

In Los Angeles, the person who came to pick him up was Liu Zi, and there were two men with him.

"Haozi, they are all professional assistants. If you need anything, just ask them to do it. They are all family members, so you don't have to worry about anything else."

The six sons here have prepared a pick-up car and arranged a complete formation. According to Hu Sanye, this is also a kind of shock. Say goodbye to those who want to cause trouble and be honest. This person is protected by me, Hu Gudong.

Kang Yan leaned into Chen Hao's ear and said something. Chen Hao glanced at the car driving in the distance and said with a smile: "Brother Six, I took you away. I won't have dinner with you tonight. I have friends to invite you to dinner." ”

In the United States, it is not necessarily a privileged car or a license plate number, but in some circles, some very special cars and some people are the best business cards. Liu Zi knows it, and Murray also knows it. The car with the long name of the service company has companies in the United States and Europe. The car represents the company, a very powerful mercenary group in West Asia, and a company that does guarantee business all over the world.

Are people from this company coming to pick up Haozi?

In the evening, a company that was at least a mid-level figure invited him to dinner and gave him a debut in the United States. This Haozi really had a lot of connections.

Liuzi didn't want to admit it, but he had to admit it. If it wasn't for a fight to the death, after this meal, if he didn't take the initiative to provoke others, there would be basically no people who wanted to play head-on with him directly. Liuzi didn't know what level of people in this company gave Chen Hao this place, but no matter what level he was, he could send a car to pick him up and treat him to a meal. Even if it didn't matter, Chen Hao had paid a huge price to get a cover. If you want to give him some face, if you really want to be rough with Chen Hao without any reason, it will be equivalent to directly tearing off the face of this company.
