It’s hard for others to say about this movie, but the Wachowski brothers are very concerned about it and are planning to hire an Asian action director to direct the movie.

These days, no matter whether it is a movie from Hollywood or anywhere, as long as kung fu movies or action movies are mentioned, the first one that will bear the brunt will naturally be Chinese kung fu movies.

Before those Hollywood companies suffered losses from those directors and were frightened by the news, many Chinese movie stars, directors, action directors and other practitioners came to Hollywood to make a career.

In the past few years, kung fu movies have indeed been highlighted in America. These past few years have been the time when Asian directors and stars have launched a charge into Hollywood. You will find that many Hollywood movies have Asian elements.

As for what happened after that, it can’t be explained in one sentence. The movie “Windtalker” almost made Paramount die, and also made the entire Hollywood start to shy away from Asian directors. In addition, other public opinions

Because of this, and the rise of the domestic film market, there are fewer and fewer Chinese faces in Hollywood.

After all, you can make money just by lying down, so why bother going from being a big star that attracts everyone’s attention to playing a part-time role on the other side of the ocean?!

After Song Yang heard what the Wachowski brothers said, he just nodded. During his trip to Asia, Western Pictures and imdb were in agreement with the domestic film department. The Matrix has been confirmed to be introduced to domestic screenings. After all,

Song Yang's several hundred million dollars were not thrown away in vain.

So hiring some action directors, actors, etc. from China shouldn't be a problem.

Song Yang also hopes that after The Matrix is ​​released in China, domestic movies can set off a craze for special effects in advance. The era of computer special effects has just emerged and has not yet reached the insurmountable point. As long as domestic special effects technology starts slowly, plus

Western Pictures, with the technical support of Weta Special Effects, might have the opportunity to develop in advance, so that it would not be like that after more than ten or twenty years...

"The action directors and actors hired by Western Pictures from Asia must be treated the same as those in Hollywood, whether in treatment or salary!" Song Yang said to the two Wachowski brothers in front of him.

Naturally, the two brothers would not object to this. They are not the kind of directors who are short of brains and look for trouble. They are also one of the people who least want this movie to go wrong, otherwise their dream of becoming a great director

No, they can't explain it here in Song Yang.

"I hope that Alcatel mobile phones, Siebel Automobiles, American Telecom and other brands can appear in the Matrix movie!"

If the money doesn’t go to outsiders, the Matrix movie will also attract brand sponsorships. This is a common routine in Hollywood. Some popular movies can even bring in brand sponsorship fees to recoup their production costs. This is why movies are so popular.

Because of hiring big directors or superstars, brands are willing to sponsor and banks are willing to lend money, but if you hire small Hollywood stars, you won't get any of these...

The Matrix will definitely not be able to attract any big-name sponsors now. Once the first part is released, if the box office is a hit, sponsors from all walks of life will definitely flock to it.

But the good news will not go to outsiders. Song Yang plans to put a number of his own brands such as Alcatel mobile phones, Panda TV and screens, Sibel cars, etc. into the movie first, so that they look familiar and become "international" brands!

No matter whether the Alcatel mobile phone, Panda TV, or Sibel Automobile are developed or not, even if a model is put in the movie, we will start with this wave of advertising anyway.

If The Matrix can be released as scheduled without pulling out the crotch, then these brands in Song Yang's hands, after this wave of publicity, will at least be confused in front of hundreds or even tens of millions of moviegoers in dozens of regions around the world.

Familiarity, this is crucial for a new brand product!

The Wachowski brothers took Song Yang's words to heart and were only one step away from starting filming. They did not want to offend Song Yang, a big financial backer.

When they walked out of the villa with the agreement signed by Song Yang, Larry Wachowski and Andy Wachowski finally breathed a sigh of relief.

The script for The Matrix has been in their hands for several years, and now they can finally start filming!

"Keanu, you are going to be a big star!"

In Los Angeles, Keanu Reeves' agent, after receiving the call, immediately ran into the garage and shouted excitedly to Keanu Reeves who was backing up the motorcycle.

Keanu Reeves' agent was specially found for him by his stepfather, who is a director on Broadway. Although this agent is not a big agent in Hollywood, he still has many connections and has contacts with many Hollywood film companies.

The directors are all familiar to each other.

"I knew you would become a big star in Hollywood, just like Brad Pitt. Keanu, you will get a salary of 30 million US dollars!"

The agent said excitedly to Keanu Reeves that he had just received a call from the director of Western Pictures, notifying Keanu Reeves to audition. Although he did not specify it directly, how could an agent who has been in Hollywood for so many years do so?

I won't understand.

This time, the competition for the male lead in The Matrix is ​​very fierce. There are popular actors like Brad Pitt and many powerful actors. Keanu Reeves' agent is just joining in the fun.

Keanu Reeves signed up, but who would have thought that Keanu Reeves would actually be chosen to star, even though the salary was not high.

If Brad Pitt, Will Smith and others were to star, the salary for a single film would be at least more than 30 million US dollars, plus a high share of the film, so that they could be hired, and those who have not yet held major responsibilities would be hired.

Keanu Reeves, who produced the movie and starred in the film, only received a salary of US$10 million per film. For starring in the trilogy, he received a salary of US$30 million, but he would be given a share of the box office!

For Keanu Reeves, who is in urgent need of a big production to prove himself, this is definitely a huge opportunity.

Keanu Reeves was stunned for a moment when he heard the news. He knew that his agent had signed him up for "The Matrix", but he never expected that he would be chosen in the end.

"Are you sure?" Keanu Reeves couldn't help but asked his agent.

"I think this news has probably spread throughout Hollywood now," seeing Keanu Reeves' stunned look, the agent joked, "The boss of Western Pictures who filmed The Matrix is ​​Silicon Valley's Bruno...

Song, like you, Keanu Reeves, he is of Chinese descent..."

Keanu Reeves couldn't help but remain silent for a long time after hearing the agent's joke. This reason sounded ridiculous, but Keanu Reeves, who had never met Song Yang, knew that after today, conspiracy theories were prevalent.

In Hollywood, I'm afraid this news will spread all over the world.

Just as the agent said, when Western Pictures announced that it would invite Keanu Reeves for the final round of auditions, word quickly spread throughout Hollywood that Keanu Reeves would be cast in the US$240 million blockbuster.

Come and take charge.

"It is rumored that the blockbuster "The Matrix", invested by Western Pictures, co-produced by DreamWorks and Miramax, and distributed by Paramount, will star Keanu Reeves, who has starred in it

"Point Break", "Dangerous Liaisons" and other films, The Matrix will be their first big-budget movie starring in!"

The entertainment channel of the Los Angeles TV station was the first to release the news, and then various tabloids and media quickly followed suit, breaking all kinds of dazzling gossip.

The Matrix did not choose a Hollywood superstar or an Italian movie star in Hollywood. Instead, it chose Keanu Reeves, which was beyond the expectations of many people. Naturally, conspiracy theories frequently emerged.

Even if the Wachowski brothers come forward and declare, "Keanu Reeves is the best candidate for The Matrix, we will use more funds for special effects and film production!"

But there are still countless conspiracy theories emerging, and as for Keanu Reeves' mixed race from eight countries, they have been ignored.

No matter what the conspiracy theory is, after the starring actors of The Matrix were assembled, the filming was finally announced. Countless people were watching indifferently. When the movie is released, they will know whether Song Yang made a profit or lost money for the hundreds of millions of dollars he threw in Hollywood.

upside down.

In Asia, Western Pictures also spent a lot of money to invite a number of actors. Yuen Woo-Ping, who is known as the number one military commander, was invited from Hong Kong to provide action guidance for the entire Matrix. Chang Wei was also invited. No, it was Zou Zhaolong.

Wait for everyone to come to the Matrix crew.

Western Pictures' The Matrix was the first film to recruit people from China to Hollywood on a large scale.

On a business plane at the San Jose Airport, Hailey, who was sitting in the plane, rolled her eyes and looked at Jenny, who was hugging Song Yang at the foot of the airport and wiping tears from time to time.

Looking at Jenny and Song Yang hugging each other and having sex together, and then looking at Gallo who was nowhere to be seen, Haili was so angry that her teeth itched, wondering if Gallo had gone to another party to hang out.

After pinching Jenny's face, Song Yang looked at Jenny in his arms, "When I finish my work here, I will go to Hollywood to visit!"

After Jenny heard this, she wiped her face with pear blossoms and rain, printed a bite on Song Yang's face, and walked towards the plane reluctantly.

Until they got on the plane, Haili comforted Jenny, "This drama is invested by Song's Western Pictures. Absolutely no one on the crew will dare to provoke you..."

"I'm not worried about this," Jenny wiped away her tears, "I'm worried that some Bichi will crawl into Song's bed while I'm in Hollywood!"

Hailey resisted the urge to roll her eyes, and then realized that this stupid girl didn't just have a figure and no brains.

"Song is not that kind of person!"

Haili said something behind her conscience. Haili, a veteran, has very vicious eyes. She recently heard about Elsa Benitez becoming a Victoria's Secret model. Others don't know why.

, but Hailey knew all about it, and that icq president Erin Doherty, Haili had long discovered that there was something fishy.
