Chapter 340 Negotiation and filming about to start
As if in this way, the white people's discrimination against them can be vented.
But the more this happened, the more Jet Li refused to admit defeat.
He is a very stubborn person, the more these people discriminate against him, the more they can arouse resistance in his heart.
He wants these people to obey him.
And in the movie Thunderbolt 4, he also successfully conquered these actors and directors.
Let them see how powerful they are, and it can be regarded as a sigh of relief for themselves.
Then there was the wedding with Li Zhi.
Unexpectedly, so suddenly, Steve Kevin ran directly to his wedding to invite him.
After staying in Hollywood for more than a year, Jet Li already knew how famous Steve Kevin was in Hollywood.
It is no exaggeration to say that he is like the king of Hollywood.
The invincible king.
To get his invitation, for an actor, it is a shortcut to becoming famous.
And Jet Li naturally wants to be famous.
Otherwise, he would not have first come to Hong Kong from the mainland, and then came to Hollywood from Hong Kong.
Isn't it all because he wants to be famous.
Originally, for Lizhi, he was ready to not work for a year.
I didn't expect Steve Kevin to invite him to participate in the shooting of the new movie. You must know that Steve Kevin's reputation has been heard by Lizhi to some extent.
If such an opportunity given by a great director is missed, not only Jet Li will regret it.
Li Zhi thought about it, and he might regret it.
In this way, after a few days of discussion between the couple, they finally decided to let Jet Li participate in the shooting of Steve Kevin's new movie.
"You have this ability, so I invite you to star in my new movie."
Kevin praised Jet Li.
This is his real thought.
The two Chinese Kung Fu superstars, Jackie Chan and Jet Li, have only been two of them for so many years. Can they not be great? Of course, this is the expressiveness in the movie.
Jackie Chan's kung fu, in his own words, is called juggling kung fu, and he has no actual combat ability.
And Jet Li's is routine martial arts.
To put it simply, it is to play well, and the focus is to keep fit.
The actual combat ability is not very good.
Of course, this is for Lian Jiazi, it is still possible to beat ordinary people.
In the movie circle.
For those who can really fight, Kevin only obeys Bo.
Bodyguard of Zhongnanhai, if you say he can't fight, who will believe it?
Hearing this, Jet Li's expression also softened.
It's a great feeling to meet someone who appreciates you.
"I don't know Mr. Li, when will he be able to participate in the filming?"
Jet Li expressed his opinion immediately.
"anytime."
This is a Steve Kevin movie, and Jet Li doesn't dare to put on any big-name airs.
Moreover, in Hollywood, he is now estimated to be worth less than a third- and fourth-tier starlet, and he is not a big name at all.
Of course, even if it was, he didn't dare to pose.
In Hollywood, there should be no one who dares to put on airs in front of Kevin.
Even superstars dare not put on airs in front of a billionaire, the boss of a Hollywood film company, or a top director.
"Well, in three days' time, go to the MGM studio, get acquainted with the other actors first, sign a contract later, and then you can leave with the script."
"it is good."
Hearing that Steve Kevin didn't even need an audition, Jet Li instantly felt heavy pressure.
This shows that Steve Kevin is optimistic about him, so if his performance is not good, he can almost be sentenced to death for his Hollywood career.
But in the face of Steve Kevin's trust, Jet Li couldn't say what I couldn't do, so he could only secretly hide the pressure in his heart.
Nodding his head, he agreed to Kevin's words.
After a brief exchange, it was confirmed that Jet Li was obedient, so Kevin asked him to go to Dawson to sign the contract and get the script at the same time.
Wait until Jet Li leaves.
Only then did Kevin think about the arrangement of other characters in the new movie.
During Hurricane Rescue, Nicole Kidman was given the role of the hero's wife. There is no way, she has been a bit entangled by Nicole Kidman recently.
This is also a way out of nowhere.
The scandal between him and Nicole Kidman has also spread in Hollywood.
The outside world does not know how many rumors about him.
The overall rumor is that as long as the female lead in a Steve Kevin movie, basically has an affair with him.
This made Kevin cry out for injustice. Is he such a person?
Don't let him catch who spread the rumors first, otherwise, the top lawyers will sue them.
Do you have evidence for him messing around with men and women?
···
Well, regardless of whether there is evidence or not, anyway, his reputation in the outside world is already like this.
He doesn't care anymore.
The entertainment industry all over the world is the same.
Between handsome men and beautiful women, it is the easiest to mess up the relationship between men and women.
In human genes, we are born to yearn for the good-looking opposite sex, and love is essentially nothing but hormones secreted by hormones.
Love in Hollywood comes and goes quickly.
The heroine was handed over to Nicole Kidman, and the role of the hero's daughter was naturally handed over to Anne Hathaway. Service came full circle for Kevin.
This finally softened Kevin's heart.
Of course, it is also because Anne Hathaway just fits the character image.
This year, she is at the most beautiful time in her life, playing the role of the 37-year-old Jet Li's daughter is perfect.
On the contrary, Nicole Kidman, acting as a mother at this age is actually not very good for her.
But because this is Steve Kevin's movie, even if it's just the heroine in name, the total role may not be as much as her daughter, so she wants it too.
Of course, she also asked Kevin for the role of daughter.
But was firmly rejected by Kevin.
Kevin's casting requirements have always been to give priority to conforming to the character image, and then consider acting skills and relationships.
No matter how important a woman is, after all, it cannot be worth the green dollar bills.
Choosing the wrong role and losing millions of dollars can make him die of heartache.
At the same time, it will make the movie imperfect.
It's something he's always resisted.
Even if it is a commercial film, Kevin will try his best to be perfect within the scope of what he can do. This is his long-standing principle.
It is also one of the reasons why his movies have always been so successful.
At least some basic principles and common sense mistakes, as well as plot bugs, are all rounded as they can be rounded, so I guarantee that the audience will not watch too much drama.
And this, in fact, is already the standard for A-level commercial productions.
The plot is reasonable, the rhythm is tight, the special effects are in place, and the story can firmly grasp the hearts of the audience. This is the standard for commercial blockbusters.
It's a pity that there are not many directors who can do all these things well.
Chapter 341 Conscience Boss Kevin
Many directors may not even be able to tell a complete story.
Being able to tell the story clearly without procrastinating is actually a qualified director.
The main actors are all in place, and the remaining supporting roles are left to the company to arrange and exchange resources.
At present, the oldest group of people in the company must be arranged first.
Kevin is a nostalgic, even if the company has developed to the present level, he has never abandoned anyone who joined Dawn Films from the very beginning. Of course, this is without making mistakes.
But in terms of the treatment of Chenxi Film Company, none of these people left.
You must know that Chenxi Film Company gave them a basic salary, and at the same time they didn't need them to take on roles everywhere, because the company's filming could not be finished.
They are very busy. Although they don't get high salaries, they are just a little bit.
After a year, you can still get hundreds of thousands, and you can live comfortably in the United States.
At the same time, Kevin will give them a chance.
In TV dramas and movies, some important supporting roles will be given to contracted actors of the company on a regular basis.
Whether you can take advantage of the opportunity to get ahead depends on your own ability.
If you can't break through, you can play a small supporting role with peace of mind and earn money to support your family.
Capable ones, like Clark Gregg, with the role of the villain jigsaw, and Phil Coulson, an agent of SHIELD agents, are already well-known in the industry.
While being able to receive many supporting roles in movies, he is still trying to develop into a screenwriter and producer.
Kevin also talked to him, and he will be given more opportunities in the future.
In the Marvel Cinematic Universe, he is an indispensable supporting role.
In the Marvel TV universe, he is the absolute protagonist.
The current first season of Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. revolves around the work of S.H.I.E.L.D. before Iron Man was born.
On the whole, it is actually Phil Coulson's personal agent show. Of course, it is also expanding the world view of the Marvel Universe.
If the movie is too short, every word, like, Phil Coulson is a legendary secret agent.
If it is possible to expand a whole season of TV series, then the TV series will not only show Coulson's skills, but also show more content of the Marvel Universe.
It is worth mentioning that at the end of the first season, Kevin also made a cameo appearance by Robert Downey Jr.
Of course, although they appeared in TV dramas at the same time, the plots have not yet been connected in series.
Instead, it unfolds in the mode of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents spying on him.
In this way, the contents of TV dramas and movies are seamlessly connected.
There are naturally a few more similar people.
Those who followed Kevin from the very beginning also got rich rewards and were able to make a living as an actor.
You know, it's not an exaggeration to say that 90.00% of five actors can't make a living by relying on this industry.
Just like the author of online novels, and the sales industry.
Ninety percent, or even ninety-five percent of people, are actually doing business at a loss, just to become the minority of 5.00%.
Until he couldn't support himself, he had no choice but to leave the scene in dismay.
