Entertainment tycoon since 83

"No problem, I will definitely put my best effort into filming this movie!"

When Zhang Yimou heard that Huang Ze would gather so many stars for him and the investment would be at least 20 to 30 million US dollars, he didn't know what to say.

I could only hold Huang Ze's hand and express my gratitude again and again.

"Hey, nothing more to say, thank you Lao Huang for supporting my film!"

"You're being polite. This is too polite for the two of us!" Huang Ze waved his hand, "I believe in you, and I also believe in connections. You two will definitely be able to create different sparks!"

"Shoot it well and strive to get a box office of over 100 million in North America, so that North American audiences can get to know you!" Huang Ze certainly knew that it would be difficult for "Hero" to break 100 million.

After all, its box office in its previous life was only over 50 million.

This number is not simply twice as much as 100 million US dollars.

Huang Ze doesn't think that if he shoots the film a few years earlier and adds his name as the producer, the box office will increase that much.

But isn’t this just wishful thinking?

As soon as he drew the pie of the box office revenue of over 100 million yuan, it was obvious that Zhang Yimou and Li Lianjie's eyes lit up.

amount.

This is Huang Ze’s goal.

It's like the carrot hanging in front of a donkey. It's to encourage them to be more motivated and not afraid of hard work or fatigue while filming.

"Director Huang, is there really a chance to break 100 million?" Li Lianjie asked happily.

I go.

You really asked!
Huang Ze sighed silently in his heart, "Of course there is a chance!"

"Mr. Zhang, you've won two of the three major awards, and there are a bunch of other awards as well."

"The current situation is that a director who has won the three major awards and is more of an art director has collaborated with you, Li Lianjie, on a martial arts film, targeting the North American box office market."

"Which movie do these factors remind you of?"

“Well, just know it in your heart.” Seeing that Li Lianjie was about to speak, Huang Ze didn’t know whether he wanted to find a difference or talk about Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, so he raised his hand to block him, “No need to say it.”

"As long as you work hard, there is definitely a chance to break 100 million."

As for the best, it’s better not to reach 100 million…

That’s definitely not my, Huang Ze’s problem.

It's you who didn't do your job well.

……

After settling on the "Hero" matter, Huang Ze naturally focused on Los Angeles.

There's nothing I can do. There are so many things going on over there.

There are three films under Xinghai.

Kill Bill.

"Final Destination 3".

And "The Sixth Sense", which he used to achieve a new box office record.

Until May 1st.

Even though the progress this time is not fast, all the preparations for "The Sixth Sense" have been completed.

"We're going to start shooting tomorrow, how do you feel about it?"

Huang Ze asked Jackie Chan with a smile, "Did you feel that there were not many fighting scenes this time? The only fighting scene was that the villain killed him in just a few moves. Did you feel a little uncomfortable?"

"Hahaha!" Jackie Chan laughed and touched his arms and shoulders. "Let me tell you, I've made so many movies, from being a martial artist at the beginning, to later making traditional Republic of China martial arts movies, and then modern fashion action movies."

"I've never made a movie with so few action scenes."

"These days I'm not preparing for various moves, but chatting with the kids and stuff."

"It felt like, how should I put it, my body was rusty."

"Are the nails and plates in your body rusted?" Huang Ze and Jackie Chan are quite familiar with each other, so he naturally knows that he has medical power everywhere, and he laughed and teased. "Hahaha!" Jackie Chan laughed, "Director Huang, if this film can achieve good results, I won't have to work so hard in the future."

"Not that necessary?"

"I have to fight hard when I have to," Jackie Chan said. "My foundation is still action, I know that. Even if this movie is successful, it will only increase the cost of making other movies."

"But."

"First of all, I can feel that the American community is somewhat exclusive to actors like us, and that kind of exclusion has always been there."

"Secondly, I can't ask Director Huang to always cast me as the lead in your movies!"

"If I change to another director, I can't guarantee that I can still get high box office if I don't act in action comedies."

"Okay!" Huang Ze could only give him a thumbs up.

have to say.

Jackie Chan sees things very clearly.

Speaking of which, in his previous life, he also saw things very clearly and knew that it was not easy to make it in Hollywood, so he stepped back and focused on consolidating the Asian market.

Later, he was quite correct in taking sides on major issues.

Not to mention his views on relationships between men and women. Only after a few decades will we realize that Jackie Chan is indeed Jackie Chan, a truly sober person.

Decades ahead of the others!

Compared with Li Lianjie, he is obviously a step ahead in various choices.

No wonder he eventually became a representative of Chinese actors around the world.

Huang Ze nodded gently and patted Jackie Chan on the shoulder, "It's a good thing to have that kind of fighting spirit, but it's better to hold back for now and finish filming this movie together."

"I see!"

……

After checking the preliminary preparations for the next day and chatting with the actors, it was already evening and Huang Ze automatically walked into Jennifer Connelly's room.

She will play a mother this time.

That must be different from girls.

As a director, Huang Ze has the unshirkable responsibility and obligation to help him get into the role better!
However, what Huang Ze didn't expect was that as soon as he walked in, Jennifer Connelly looked at him with a playful look.

"uh-huh?"

"What's wrong, Jennifer?"

"I thought you were going to find Sophie."

"What?" Huang Ze spread his hands, "Why can't I understand what you are saying?"

"Actually, you know."

"How about I call her over and we can do it together?" The other party obviously saw something, and Huang Ze didn't hide it anymore.

I was originally prepared to get along with you as a little scumbag, but what I got in return was doubt.

I won’t pretend anymore.

Showdown.

I want a threesome!
"No need." Seeing Huang Ze starting to take out his phone, Jennifer Connelly shook her head quickly, "It's fine for the two of us, don't add any more people to this room."

"I just verified my guess."

Jennifer Connelly smiled slyly, "She's not in the Hollywood circle, and she hasn't made many movies in Asia. How did you think of asking her to play the second female lead?"

"Now it seems that I guessed right."

"Oh, you've broken my heart. I need a little comfort."

"Don't be sad." Jennifer held back her laughter and gently patted Huang Ze's chest twice.

"You touched the wrong place." Huang Ze held Jennifer's wrist and moved it down, "It's here. I need your comfort." (End of this chapter)
