Li Xiaolong is the first Chinese movie star to enter Hollywood with his fist, and is a business card for Chinese people in Hollywood. Quentin's approach is completely to belittle Li Xiaolong to increase public opinion and box office.
To say it was an insult to Li Xiaolong would not be an exaggeration.
This is why Fang Jing and Cheng Long cannot accept it.
"If you don't believe me, there's no need to discuss it." Quentin shook his head in amusement, "I don't understand. This is just a very common way of entertainment. Why are you so reacting to it?"
"Li Xiaolong is also my idol. The first autobiography I read in my life was about him written by his wife. I respect him very much. I have paid tribute to him many times in my films in the past, and it is the same this time."
"You are not paying tribute. I have never seen such a way of paying tribute!" Fang Jing endured the temptation to offend, "Please respect our country's culture. There is no market for this kind of film in China."
The culture here in the United States is different from that in China. People have huge cultural differences. It's okay to directly make fun of the president here. In Quentin's opinion, he just used Li Xiaolong as movie material, and the so-called insult was a tribute.
But China values respect for teachers and politeness, so things like this will fundamentally arouse public outrage.
After Fang Jing finished speaking, Quentin narrowed his eyes and said in a bad tone: "Don't you want to develop in Hollywood?"
In his opinion, Fang Jing came to Hollywood just to increase his social status and then return to China to make money. He did not hesitate to spend a lot of money for this. They also like this kind of swindler. As long as they give money, they will say anything.
"If this is how I enter Hollywood, then I don't have to come."
"Young man, this is not a good decision. You don't have to participate in my movie, but you should apologize for what you just said."
Fang Jing said that he didn't even get any money from him, which made Quentin a little embarrassed. No one dared to talk to him like this, and none of the Oscar-winning actors had such a bad temper.
Fang Jing smiled, stood up, gave a middle finger, and said in Chinese: "I apologize to you so damn much, don't say sorry. As long as you dare to make this movie, I will boycott it for you when it comes to China. I'll take it back if you can."
lose."
After saying that, he left without looking back, leaving Cheng Long looking at each other and an angry Quentin.
"Jack Cheng, what does he mean?"
Quentin couldn't understand Chinese, but he understood the universal gestures, and judging from his tone, he knew what Fang Jing said was not a good thing.
"He said goodbye and invited you to drink tea another day. Say goodbye and I'm leaving." Before Quentin could say anything, Cheng Long caught up with Fang Jing.
The two got into the car, Cheng Long laughed loudly, and gave Fang Jing a thumbs up: "Nice! When Chinese actors come here, who is not a submissive person? You are the first one who dares to scold the director, and the one you scold is the great director Quentin."
In the past, when Chinese actors entered Hollywood, they were always inferior to others, isolated and looked down upon, with only directors scolding them. Today, Fang Jing is setting a precedent.
Fang Jing's anger subsided a little, and he smiled stiffly, "I'm sorry, Uncle Long, for making it difficult for you."
"It's okay. I'm not familiar with him anyway. I wanted to hit him twenty years ago. I'll let you get to know a few producers again someday. They are all my good friends. This kind of thing will definitely not happen."
"Forget it, I'd better develop in China first." Fang Jing shook his head. Chinese actors here really have no status. "Is this the same when you first came to Hollywood to work hard?"
Sighing heavily, Cheng Long said: "It's better than now, but not much worse. I already had some fame here when I was in Hollywood." Mobile version::
"Unless they are well-known internationally and have a huge market, Chinese actors rarely get good roles. Most of them, like you today, get small supporting roles that are insulting."
"Alas! It's too difficult to get ahead in Hollywood. Originally I thought you could do it, but judging from today's situation, it will be difficult for you in the future."
Fang Jing shrugged. He didn't care at all. If you don't want to be around, you won't be around. At worst, you'll always be in China.
"I'm going back to China tomorrow. This trip has allowed me to get to know Hollywood again. After all, I'm still not strong enough and I'm restricted everywhere I go."
Cheng Long patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "It's a good idea to have. In fact, Hollywood is nothing great. Wait until I make a movie later and we can work together."
"Okay, then I'll wait for your last action movie."
Cheng Long laughed, "You kid, you are making fun of me."
…
As soon as Fang Jing got off the plane, there was a heated discussion on the Internet about Miao Miao's dancing. A video of more than an hour was posted online. It happened to be the day of Feng Xiaogang's family gathering.
In the video, Chen Daoming plays the piano, and a group of big guys take the lead in asking Miao Miao to dance. At the end, Chen Daoming curses angrily and says, "Have you never seen dancing?"
The video was released in the middle of the night, and it was the top trending topic in the morning, with millions of people discussing it.
"These people are really greasy. They are a bunch of old perverts who are capable of doing things like forcing people to dance in public."
"What era did you think it was seventy or eighty years ago? What do you think of people? If you don't want to dance, just don't dance."
"Man, there's nothing good about it. It's disgusting. It makes me want to vomit."
"The person upstairs knew he was an old boxer as soon as he made a move. He didn't know the cause and effect of the incident. He opened his mouth and scolded all the men. From the picture, Feng Xiaogang should have good intentions, but he didn't expect that he would end up doing something bad. And Miao Miao didn't do the same.
Didn't you refuse?"
"Teacher Chen Daoming is really tough. He doesn't save any face when facing so many big guys. He's awesome."
"I declare that Uncle Chen is my idol."
"Hahaha, it's a pity that in the end, Chen Dao's name was changed and he was no longer a human being, but Miao Miao still danced."
Things were going viral online very quickly, and there were so many people interested in it. In one night, the entire Internet knew about it, and both Feng Xiaogang and Uncle Ge were pushed to the forefront.
Feng Xiaogang's Weibo was full of curses, various genealogy greetings, and all kinds of abuse. In the end, he had no choice but to close the comments.
I don’t know who exposed Fang Jing’s name again, saying that he was following him that day, but he was not photographed. Now it was Fang Jing’s turn to be attacked in the comment area.
"I didn't expect him to be this kind of person. I couldn't tell."
"Can't you act well? You have to join in the fun."
"I traveled thousands of miles to catch someone's bad feet, but now I'm getting retribution. I can't steal the chicken but lose the rice."
Seeing these anti-fans, Fang Jing was speechless. He hid very well and could eat melons on his head. After he was convinced, he didn't know who pushed him out, but it must have been the people from the party that day.
"Thank you for the invitation. I'm in Shanghai. I just got off the plane. I went to attend the premiere of "Jonny Road 2" that day. Before I left, I went to visit Teacher Yang Lixin's house and met Teacher Chen. I was invited to go to the party together. Most of the people at the party were
I don’t know him, I’ve been eating melon in the corner that day.”
After explaining a lot, Fang Jing also promoted Jonker 2, killing two birds with one stone.
In the afternoon, a picture was circulated on the Internet. It was said to be a relationship diagram created by an insider, describing the major factions in the entertainment industry, including the Beijing Circle, Shanghai Circle, Northwest Circle, and Pearl River Delta Circle. : :
The picture is very detailed. The leaders, main characters, and people in the team of each circle are listed. Among them, Fang Jing is in the Beijing circle, and he is a faction with Renyi, and there are a lot of big guys behind him.
