Chapter 690 How to be the first in the world, we have more experience
Weng Zhian was filled with joy when he came to see Xiao Qian.
Hollywood has taken the initiative to seek cooperation, and it is a great director like Quentin. This is enough to say that the star's strength has been recognized.
He is already imagining what kind of sensation it will cause after the news of Starlight's cooperation with Hollywood spreads.
However, in Xiao Qian's case, his joy was slapped on the wall.
"Xiao Qian, don't you understand what this cooperation means? This is a Hollywood movie, it's Quentin. As long as this cooperation goes well, we might be able to break into the European and American markets."
Weng Zhian's eyes were blazing with fire, and his expression wanted to choose someone to devour.
Opposite him, Xiao Qianyun was calm and calm.
"I will correct you on a few mistakes. First, what is good about Hollywood? Second, do you think you can enter Hollywood through one cooperation? Third, this movie is garbage."
What a concise and concise argument, it almost makes Weng Zhian feel heartbroken.
"Go and ask, which film maker doesn't want to go to Hollywood?"
Xiao Qian's counterattack was even more powerful.
"Who has succeeded in East Asia? Even if they go to Hollywood, what kind of virtue has been transformed into them? Is this kind of Hollywood worth going to?"
It was like the cold wind from Siberia swept through the office, causing Weng Zhian to calm down instantly.
Although Xiao Qian's words were vicious, they hit the nail on the head and blew away all the splendor.
In recent years, many filmmakers have gone to Hollywood one after another. The momentum is so great that they seem to conquer the world.
But in fact, after arriving in Hollywood, these people all became nondescript. Not only were they incompatible with the local environment, but they also lost all their popularity with local audiences.
Having seen many such examples in her previous life, Xiao Qian has never been enthusiastic about entering Hollywood.
Furthermore, he is the CEO of an entertainment company, and he mostly thinks about issues from the company's perspective.
If you are a director, actor or behind-the-scenes staff, you can still go to Hollywood to make a career, but who has ever heard that Asian film companies can gain a foothold in Hollywood?
Despite the open and transparent appearance of Americans, in fact these guys are the most conservative and xenophobic.
It's just that their actions are all hidden in a tacit understanding under the rules, so many people don't discover their sinister intentions.
While they are lobbying all over the world, calling for openness and tolerance, at the same time they are squeezing and excluding the living space of their foreign counterparts in their own territory? In the end, all the benefits are theirs.
Even though Starlight is the largest film production company in China? But if you go to Hollywood, believe it or not, you may not even be able to invite actors.
Not to mention how the distribution and theater circuits are stuck.
So what about cooperating with Hollywood? Taking the opportunity to enter the European and American markets? Xiao Qian is not enthusiastic at all.
Does he have experience in time travel and has seen the rise and fall of the European and American film markets? This makes him have no respect for Hollywood at all.
What's so good about that crappy place?
It seems that there are still exciting works emerging one after another, but how many years will it take? It’s not Spider-Man fighting Batman? It’s Captain America fighting Thanos.
It's okay to vomit.
His knowledge and experience in his previous life made him not very fond of Hollywood and not very enthusiastic about it. The failure of "Kill Bill" was also the fundamental reason for his rejection.
As China joins the WTO, has its integration into the world accelerated? The Western world has also begun to have a strong interest in China and the East.
Did Quentin and Miramax seize this trend? Coupled with the popularity of kung fu movies in the United States, they wanted to make movies that combine this kind of thing.
It's a pity that this is just a combination of things that Hollywood and Quentin himself think unilaterally. In fact, what the movie shows is a half-baked hodgepodge.
Hollywood's sophisticated production is not reflected? The oriental action features are even worse, making the whole movie nondescript.
Except for the box office, which is not a loss, it has almost nothing.
"How do you know this movie is bad? You didn't even read the script."
Weng Zhian still maintains his final stubbornness.
Xiao Qian scoffed.
"Do you still need to read the script? How good and capable is Quentin? Can he make an oriental-style action movie?"
Weng Zhian was very anxious.
"Didn't they invite Yang Yue to give guidance?"
Xiao Qian poured him a cup of tea to calm him down.
"Does Yang Yue have a say? If not, then it's not the Americans who have the final say on how to shoot. Since they have the final say? Do you think it can be shot well?"
After a cup of tea? Weng Zhian finally became less irritable.
"Then this cooperation is... no longer necessary?"
Xiao Qian was a little silent.
Really? He really doesn’t want to waste time on this kind of thing. But Weng Zhian is the boss of the company after all, and he has finally got a business. If he refuses rashly, it will hurt his heart.
After thinking about it, Xiao Qian made a suggestion.
"If you want to cooperate, you can inform Miramax and Quentin that the script must be drastically changed, and the selection of actors must be re-selected. We at Starlight need to be cooperating and have enough say. If they don't agree,
Then forget it."
The plot of "Kill Bill" is very rubbish, and overall it is not interesting. But if it is carefully revised, it can become exciting.
As for the selection of actors, especially the selection of Eastern actors, there are countless failures.
If these two points are changed, "Kill Bill" might not be able to become a classic.
Xiao Qian's request for the right to speak was also for the smooth production of the film.
If Starlight can't take the lead, and Quentin is allowed to have his own fun, what he shoots will still be the garbage of his previous life.
But Weng Zhian looked troubled.
"Is this request too much? You know, those white people are very arrogant and cannot allow us to seize the right to speak."
Xiao smiled lightly.
"Look, you also know that white people are arrogant. Let's try it. Miramax and Quentin agree to cooperate with us. If they don't agree, then let them find someone else. None of us will participate and we will not bear the stigma.
"
Xingguang finally gained the strength and fame he has now, and Xiao Qian cherishes feathers very much.
If they had participated in the original "Kill Bill", Miramax and Quentin would have made a lot of money in North America, but Starlight would have only gained notoriety in China.
How stupid must Xiao Qian be to do this for such a trivial reward but to damage his hard-earned reputation?
Weng Zhi'an tried his best to talk, but when he saw Xiao Qian's firm attitude, he stopped entangled.
After so many years of cooperation, he believes in Xiao Qian's abilities even more.
After all, every brick and tile of Starlight today is attributed to Xiao Qian. Without Xiao Qian, his small and broken company would have been wiped out.
Looking at the handsome young man, Weng Zhian couldn't help but sigh.
"When others hear about Hollywood, they risk their lives to get involved. But you, you don't even care. I really don't know where your confidence comes from."
Xiao Qian looked at him seriously, looking so serious for the first time.
"My motherland is the second largest country in the world. As a citizen of the second largest country, is it abnormal for me to have confidence?"
Weng Zhian looked stunned, as if a strong electric current swept through his body.
That strange emotion actually made him a little panicked and confused. But for some reason, he seemed vaguely excited.
"But he is number one in the world."
Xiao Qian is still confident.
"Soon it won't be."
"Why do you say that?"
Xiao Qian's back was bathed in the warm midday sun, and its path was bright!
"My motherland has been number one in the world for thousands of years. We have more experience than Americans in how to be number one in the world. The century of humiliation in modern times has made every Chinese person unforgettable and never wants to go back to that backwardness.
A generation that will be beaten. Since every
Every Chinese is working hard for the strength of the motherland, so this is the aspiration of the people and the hope of the people. Our motherland is prosperous and prosperous. Returning to the top of the world will not be a mirror image. I feel this surging torrent, and I rely on it.
What are you not confident about?"
After all, Weng Zhian lost his enthusiasm when he came, and when he left, he was slightly absent-minded.
From the time they met, only what Xiao Qian said today had a huge impact on him.
Xiao Qian's description and feelings about his motherland are feelings that are extremely unfamiliar to him, an overseas Chinese.
The education he has received since his birth is that the West is extremely powerful and civilized, and needs to be worshiped and learned.
Now, another thought rushed into his heart, giving him a shock that changed the color of the world.
However, he has yellow skin and dark eyes. No matter how he is affected by his inherent thoughts, the traces of bloodline deep in his heart that cannot be eliminated are still faintly shining today.
Xiao Qian knew that Weng Zhi'an needed a certain amount of time to complete his evolution.
As long as he crosses this threshold, Weng Zhian will become extremely transcendent.
