Chapter 56 Real Capital and Hollywood 1

After hearing what Cao Yu said, Sam Remy smiled and shook his head, "People may be so stupid, but capital will never make mistakes."

"Since you haven't understood it yet, I will explain it to you. Otherwise, if you are worried about it, it will not be conducive to the subsequent publicity of [Spider-Man]. You know, I can rely on [Spider-Man]

He's turning over." Sam Remy sat on the chair, moved his body a bit, and then stood up.

"Thank you, director, for your guidance." Cao Yu's attitude was very sincere.

"Then let's start with the most basic thing and what you are most confused about, why you? And I chose you even though I knew there were difficulties like this!" Sam Remy stretched out his finger on Cao Yu's hand.

He shook his head and said.

Although Sam Remy's tone was questioning, Cao Yu knew that the other party was asking him a question in return.

"There are many reasons, but the many reasons for choosing you can be roughly divided into two categories.

The first type of reason is very sanctimonious, or may make you feel dreamy: not because of anything else, but because you are the most suitable person.

Yes, you are indeed non-European and American. Starring in a comic-book movie like "Spider-Man" that is popular in Europe and the United States and has a certain fan base will be resisted by the audience.

And "Spider-Man" is Sony Columbia's annual masterpiece, and it is the remake of Sam Raimi. Neither Sony Columbia nor I can tolerate any negligence in "Spider-Man".

But at that time, only your acting skills and image were the most suitable, I remember I told you about this."

Sam Remi said slowly, and Cao Yu nodded when he heard this.

Indeed, when they first met, Sam Raimi was very excited when he saw him. At that time, he also heard similar words from Sam Raimi.

"The second type of reason is that you are lucky and solved the problem of your identity by accident."

"Am I lucky? The identity problem has been solved?" Cao Yu felt nonsensical when he heard Sam Remy say this.

Cao Yu did not feel that he was lucky, nor did he feel that he had solved his identity problem, nor did he feel that he had changed his nationality.

Sam Remy knew that Cao Yu wouldn't understand what he said if he didn't explain it in detail, so he continued to speak.

"Although you are not European or American, you studied in the UK and made your debut in the British film and television industry. Your mentor is a hidden boss in the British film and television industry.

So naturally, you are labeled as a European and American actor. From a procedural point of view, you are a well-established European and American actor.

But considering your nationality, you are Chinese, so comprehensively considering it, you can only be considered a half-European and American actor.

But there are some things, and there are two completely different situations.

Just like zeros and ones in numbers.

And this important thing in Hollywood is the identity of European and American actors.

With this identity, even if your identity as a European and American actor is only half, it is an alternative between zero and one, it can be regarded as 0.5!

But that's enough.

In other words, in the eyes of the Big Six in Hollywood and in the eyes of capital.

This is enough!!!

There is a world of difference between zero and one. After all, no matter how much money the six major Hollywood companies and capital spend on the back of "zero" and how many zeros are added, it is nothing but zero in the end. There is no return and no meaning.

But the difference between zero and 0.5 makes no difference in the eyes of the Hollywood Big Six or the capitalists in the capital world.

Is it just to build momentum for spending money later?

For them, things that can be solved by spending money are not difficult, they are very simple. For them, it is just a numbers game.

Of course.

What I said above only qualifies you to enter and compete in the Hollywood fame and fortune fair, but your qualifications still have some flaws.

There are so many up-and-coming actors in Hollywood, why did Sony, Columbia and I choose you?

This is what really makes you succeed on stage and become the male protagonist of [Spider-Man].

On the one hand, you successfully signed a role in Warner Bros.'s [Harry Potter] series.

You must know that [Harry Potter] is a vital part of Warner Bros.'s big plan. [Harry Potter] is more important to Warner Bros. than [Spider-Man] is to Sony Columbia.

Much higher.

I heard that Warner Bros. has invested no less than one billion US dollars in various aspects for this [Harry Potter] project.

You get a role in it. Although it's not the protagonist, you basically get on the big ship of Warner Brothers.

So as long as you don't do anything too outrageous in Hollywood, Warner Bros. and some of Warner Bros.'s subsidiaries and related interest groups will protect you.

After all, [Harry Potter] is really important to them.

At this time, you have to be the male protagonist of [Spider-Man], and [Spider-Man] is very important to Sony Columbia and to me.

Sony Columbia and I naturally hope that [Spider-Man] can be successful, but what does the success of [Spider-Man] depend on?

A qualified male protagonist, a Peter Parker who can match the character of Spider-Man, and a male protagonist who can support a Hollywood A-level super-large production.

You just fit the bill, and there is Warner Bros. hiding behind you.

So – you are a good choice for Sony Columbia.

In this way, one-third of the big six in Hollywood are standing behind you, and you are basically the first choice for the male lead of [Spider-Man].

But Sony Columbia was still worried that it would not be easy to publicize at that time, so it gave you a test. Fortunately, you passed the test, and passed the test perfectly.

So Sony Columbia decided to start betting on you, or bet big, and want to win. If you win, Sony Columbia will have its own ace series in the next few years. If you lose, there is nothing you can do."

"Test? I passed it. Why didn't I know when?" Cao Yu was stunned for a moment and didn't react.

Sam Remy chuckled: "Why do you think I introduced you to [Death Is Coming]? Why did President Sanfoni Padchi invest in [Death Is Coming]? It was really because of your mentor and your investment."

For my own sake, it's because I want to do a favor to my friend.

Big mistake.

Indeed!

This is part of the reason, but in this capital world where interests are intertwined, how much is a favor worth?

Hundreds of thousands, millions of dollars, it’s all over!

In the world of capital, the most valuable favor is nothing more than this!

The reason why Sanfoni Padchi was able to reach the position of president of Sony Colombia was not relying on favors, but on means.
