Chapter 817 Take It Home To Meet Your Parents
Zhou Xia's style of answering questions candidly is different from the past, which aroused the excitement of the media.

Surf Entertainment: "Director Zhou, apart from action movies, are there really no other genres of Chinese movies that have supported the box office overseas? You spent two years creating the masterpiece "Sword of Immortal Sword", which will be released next month. Don't you agree with this movie? Don’t you have confidence in this work, please talk about this movie.”

"You will see "Xianjian" next month during the summer vacation, so I won't say more. This movie is called a fairy movie in our country, but it is generally a special effects blockbuster overseas, and some subdivisions belong to magic movies. .

But this is a movie full of oriental characteristics and rich in our Chinese fairy tale culture. I personally have great confidence in this movie. In terms of technology and special effects, this movie has surpassed "Avatar" back then. I hope that by then If it can be recognized by everyone, it can also achieve good results overseas. "

Sohu Entertainment: "Director Zhou, speaking of "Sword of Immortal Sword", this time it is also the domestic and overseas version, will it be different?"

"That's for sure." Zhou Xia also said without any concealment.

Before Zhou Xia finished speaking, the media in the audience was full of noise.

Since the overseas version of "New Detective" was sent back to China, it has caused a lot of discussion.

Many people say that Zhou Xia and Xia Hua Film and Television treat audiences differently, and the overseas version has more fighting scenes and special effects, and they are dissatisfied with this.

In addition, a large number of viewers expressed their understanding and hoped that there should not be two versions next time. While retaining the domestic version of the comedy scene_, the fighting scenes and special effects scenes of the overseas version are also added. This is the best.

Now Zhou Xia also said that there are two versions, does this not pay attention to the audience?
"Director Zhou, can you roughly talk about the differences between the specific versions? Netizens and movie fans are very concerned about this point?" The female reporter who searched for Hu ignored Xiaobai's obstruction, stood up and continued to ask.

"Hehe, don't worry, everyone. The difference is that the domestic version will be richer and longer, and of course the ticket price will be more expensive!" Zhou Xia said with a smile, not to be fooled.

Hearing Zhou Xia's answer, the media in the venue laughed happily, while Xiao Bai continued to call another media for an interview.

Movie Channel: "Director Zhou, "New Detective" has now won the weekly box office championship in North America in the summer, and has accumulated a box office of nearly 3.7 million US dollars overseas. Is this performance planned and expected, or is it an accident for you? What do you think of the prospect of exporting Chinese-language films overseas in the future?"

Seeing that this reporter was an acquaintance, Zhou Xia nodded and smiled and said, "Hehe, plans and expectations? At the beginning, we were more concerned with the domestic and Asian markets. As for Europe and the United States, we hardly considered it, otherwise we would shoot more special effects. lens, or find a foreign star.

It is really a surprise to us that "The New Detective" can achieve such results in Europe and the United States. As a comedy action movie with pure genes, the wonderful display of kung fu in the movie is the reason why it is loved by European and American audiences. Really, we considered the European and American markets at the time, so we couldn't do it so purely, and European and American audiences might not like it.

As for the overseas export of Chinese films in the future, I think the main thing is to highlight my own characteristics, improve the quality of the film, and then consider overseas markets. "

Pain Xun video: "Hi Director Zhou, your kung fu comedy movie "New Detective" is a big hit in North America, now Hollywood is calling you the next Bruce Lee and Cheng Nong.

You have won countless fans around the world with this movie, what do you think of this kind of evaluation from Hollywood?Which aspect will you focus more on directing and acting in the future? "

"I respect Bruce Lee and Cheng Nong two seniors, and I am also their fan, but at the same time, I think that everyone is unique, and I am who I am. I hope that more good movies will be made in the future, which can be compared with these two seniors. Even surpass them; as for directing and acting, I now focus more on directing, and when it comes to acting, I will try my best to participate in scripts that really move me."

Imperial Youth Daily: "Director Zhou, in March you won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film and became the first director in the mainland to win this honor; three months later, your film was a big hit in North America, and in Hollywood China The Grand Theater has left a seal, and it has also entered the list of stars to be reviewed by the Oscars next year. CNN once commented on this: "Zhou Xia, the world's new generation of action superstars, welcome to officially join Hollywood." What do you think of this statement?
As the most well-known director and star in China, your every move has attracted much attention. As we all know, you have a green card. Before that, there were many rumors about your future development in Hollywood and even immigrating to the United States. You once stated in front of the media that it was only for work.Now that you are recognized and welcomed by Hollywood, you have more and better opportunities to develop in Hollywood. Have you changed your mind now? Will you consider immigrating to the United States in the future?thanks. "

Zhou Xia glanced at this elegant male reporter and smiled slightly.

The Imperial Youth Daily is also an official media. Compared with other official media, the status is not so high, and it is not so serious. But this reporter's question represents the attitude and worry of some people.

A big director, star, and entrepreneur like Zhou Xia is the pillar and elite of the country. If he immigrates, he will have a great impact.

Zhou Xia is very aware of this, and thinking of his disgust in Hollywood, he immediately said forcefully: "My attitude has always been clear, and I have never thought about immigration.

As a filmmaker, film and culture can transcend countries, even time and space, but filmmakers cannot. The historical culture, family, and national background that grow up are like the relationship between fish and water. If you leave it, you will die. No matter where I work, there will be no changes to my identity. "

"Thank you." Seeing Zhou Xia's affirmative answer, after the reporter sat down, the other reporters also applauded.

This is not the first time this question has been asked, but before it was asked by the online media, this time it was the official media, the meaning is different, everyone understands the meaning of Zhou Xia's statement.

It is equivalent to an endorsement, reassuring the people of the whole country, and setting an example with actions.

Now the media continue to ask other questions.

More than 40 minutes of questions, and finally extended for 10 minutes before the end.

Sisi and Yufei prepared a lot of questions to deal with, but they were not asked more than twice each. Xiahua Video Network took care of them and asked each question once, and the other was asked by the movie channel. After the interview , Both of them were a little depressed.

"Look at your expressions, I wish no one would ask me, and my mouth is dry when I answer."

The three of them walked out of the interview hall and led their assistants to the elevator leading to the underground parking lot. Zhou Xia looked at Yufei and Sisi and couldn't help joking.

"You don't deserve it." Sisi approached Zhou Xia, clenching her fists and threatening in a low voice.

The three assistants next to her hurriedly turned their eyes away and didn't look at these things. When Yu Fei saw this scene, she shook her head secretly, not paying attention to the influence in the company!

The group spent several days in the United States and missed authentic Chinese food, so Yang Tianzhen ordered the 'Lijia Cuisine' next to Huangpu Park.

The palace dishes produced by this three-generation royal chef are in line with the positioning of palace meals in both decoration and tableware.

The environment is unique and quiet, with pavilions, small bridges and flowing water, which looks like a classical Chinese garden.

Non-private rooms also have a quiet environment like private rooms, which are very private and do not affect each other.

Each dish has its own allusion, and it is small and delicate, full of charm, which makes people feel good when they look at it, and their appetite improves when they eat it.

The sweet and sour pork ribs here are different from the traditional fried pork ribs. They are steamed and stewed. The meat is more crispy and more delicious. The Beijing-style lobster is also well processed. It can be the most tender, and the sauce is suitable for saltiness, without destroying the umami taste of the lobster itself.

The three of Zhou Xia were in the private room, and the three assistants were outside, eating delicious food and drinking some to celebrate the big sale of the movie in North America.

After eating, Sisi and Yufei really felt much better.

Seeing that it was past four o'clock, Sisi stopped delaying and took her assistant to the airport.

Zhou Xia was going to go home. His mother called just now, and he couldn't pass the house without entering.

After Sisi's car left, Zhou Xia looked at Yu Fei and said, "Yu Fei, I want to go home, you wait for me at the company first, we will go back to the set together."

"Go home?" Yu Fei was taken aback for a moment, she couldn't help feeling impulsive, she looked at Zhou Xia and said, "Then I'm going too."

"You want to go too?" Zhou Xia looked at Yu Fei in surprise, she really didn't expect her to make such a request.

"What's the matter, can't you?" Yufei looked at Zhou Xia carefully with her beautiful eyes, and her face was also a little ugly.

It was like that on the plane, and it felt like the two of them were already in the closest relationship. It seemed that this was not the case at all, it was just physical intimacy!

"No, it's okay." After Zhou Xia's shameless incident on the plane, his mentality has changed a lot now, and he is more daring, without any consideration, and agreed without hesitation.

Things are already like this, Sisi and Yufei are so close to him, what is it to meet their parents?
Besides, my father and mother have met Erdi, so they will naturally be able to meet other people. As for other women, they will know about them anyway.

"Really." Yufei smiled like a flower, and the expression of incomparable joy appeared on her face, making her look even more beautiful and lovely.
