actor return

Chapter 481
In front of the Huaxia Theater in Hollywood, there are many celebrity handprints and footprints, which is a tourist hotspot.

It’s okay now. In a few years, especially after 2010, until the ten years before Ning Yuan’s return, the number of handprints at the entrance of Huaxia Theater will increase to one-third of the total. The part that is not shown but put on the shelf, otherwise there will be more.

It can be seen how commercialized it is.

Naturally, its honor degree is no longer so rare and expensive, and it is much inferior to the fingerprints of the Avenue of Stars established after it.

The history of Hollywood Huaxia Theater’s imprint can be traced back to 1927 when it was established, because the Hollywood star Norma Talmadge, who participated in the foundation laying, accidentally stepped on the wet concrete floor and left footprints, allowing the founder Grauman to see business opportunities. So all the stars present at that time were invited to leave their footprints.

The Avenue of Stars was not built until 50.

One reason is that the Avenue of Stars belongs to the municipal government. Although there are fees, they are not up to the standard... Even if you pay, you can't get on it. The only exception is probably Victoria's Secret sponsorship to get a star.

After all, the Huaxia Theater is a private industry, with the purpose of making profits, and it will be given if it is slightly qualified.

From 1927 to 2020 when Ningyuan returned, it took nearly a hundred years, and one-third of the handprints were left in the ten years after 2010.

No matter what, if you overuse it, it will drop in price.

Fortunately, the Huaxia Theater at this time can still stick to the strict rules. Unlike ten years later, even Feng Xiaogang, Huang Xiaoming, and Qian Wei can keep their seals. At the same time, Lin Yibin, the producer of the film, also left the print.

In fact, Lin Yibin's printing is not an exception. After all, he has some outstanding works. He has been the director of "Fast & Furious" since the third part, and he has also promoted this super IP and influenced the whole world.

Although the other few are considered top in China, they are placed in the world... It's not that Ning Yuan doesn't support his compatriots, it's really a bit embarrassing-the embarrassing point is not to leave a seal, but after leaving a print...Return to China and issue a draft directly to The title is written directly as the Avenue of Stars.

Although the Huaxia Theater is indeed at the core of the Avenue of Stars, but this kind of word play... Don't you blush when you see it?

As of Ning Yuan's rebirth, there are only three Chinese who have imprinted on the Avenue of Stars. Except for the two dragons, they are the Chinese actress Huang Liushuang more than 70 years ago.

It is worth mentioning that she was also present when the foundation stone of Huaxia Theater was laid, and she was also the one who nailed the first nail.

Although she is a Chinese born in the United States, when the motherland was in trouble, she not only donated her jewelry, but also made two anti-war films, and donated all the salaries of the two films.In addition, she has also spontaneously organized many fundraising activities.

Such feelings are many times stronger than those rubbish who are ashamed of yellow skin after being cultivated by the motherland.

Of course, the humiliation, discrimination and suffering she suffered in the United States are also numerous.

Even now, the Chinese are still prejudiced and discriminated against here, not to mention the weak period when the motherland was suffering internally and externally.

During the break, Ning Yuan and the others, accompanied by Jiang Youyou and Jiang Zhiqiang, walked around the theater.

Ning Yuan's feeling is that although some details look like a Chinese style, it is actually a mixed half-Chinese style, or in other words, a Chinese style that conforms to the impression of Americans.

This made Ning Yuan think of Disney's "Mulan", and the film "The Great Earth", which was adapted from the Nobel Prize novel of the same name more than 60 years ago. Mainly Huaxia farmers, describing the stories she saw and heard in Zhenjiang, Huaxia.

When Huang Liushuang learned that she was going to shoot this movie, she signed up immediately, but she was not selected because of discrimination. In the end, two white men and women were selected as the leading actors and actresses to play Chinese peasants.

When Ning Yuan saw this movie by chance, he was scorched by Lei Deli, what the hell is this.

Of course, its audience is not Chinese, as long as Americans can bring it in, there is no problem, and the same is true for "Mulan", which criticizes Chinese skins and plays stories that conform to the three views of old beauty.

When Haimo invited Ning Yuan to an audition, Ning Yuan also considered the issue of image - Chinese playing pirates, how to overcome the poor image, will European and American people see him, just like seeing the high nose bridge in "The Great Earth"? Eye sockets like whites, think Ray?
However, when he was acting in a drama and putting on makeup, Ning Yuan suddenly realized that when he turned into Cui Da, the makeup, as well as the thick mustache on the upper lip, but slightly rolled up at the end, was very similar to Captain Jack's beard.

When designing this way at the beginning, Ning Yuan and the makeup artist didn't think about playing pirates in the future, it's just that such a beard looks imposing.

But now it seems... the wrong way?

After all, Haimo himself said that the idea came to him because he saw him playing Cui Da.

Of course, beards are not enough. If you look at those who are beautiful, both men and women have high and straight noses. Otherwise, there would be no words to describe beauty such as "the roots of the mountain are tall and straight" and "the bridge of the nose is high".

One of the characteristics of Europeans and Americans is also a high nose bridge, in addition to deep-set eye sockets.

When Chinese people started applying eye shadow, they wanted to make their eye sockets deeper, and with deep eye sockets, coupled with a straight and straight nose, the facial features will be more three-dimensional and look better.

If Ning Yuan didn't have these characteristics, he wouldn't be handsome, but when performing makeup, in order to make his face more serious, he still applied eye shadow to make his eye sockets deeper.

Coupled with that beard, it looks like the gap between European and American people is not as big as yellow and white.

After thinking about this, Ning Yuan doesn't worry much about the image problem. If he surprises them with the performance at that time, he should be sure.

Of course, the prejudice of Europeans and Americans has always been present throughout. Even in the third part of the pirates, Zhou Runfa was invited to join him, and he was playing a pirate of the yellow race.

Until Ning Yuan came back, the only one who could play their leading role was the live-action version of "Mulan" Liu Qianqian.

However, from when Huang Liushuang wanted to act in a Chinese-themed movie, to Liu Qianqian playing Mulan, it seems that the status of Chinese actors has improved. In fact, behind it is the development of China and the vast market that they value.

And this time, the performance at the Huaxia Theater in Hollywood was even more sensational than Broadway. In addition to the reputation of "The Good Man in Sichuan Province" which has been played for many times, there is also the support of Chinatown here.

Frank, the vice president of Disney Pictures, also came here with Highmore on the day of the premiere, as he said last time. Besides the two of them, there were several senior executives of Disney Pictures.

Obviously, this is not just a drama performance, but also the first step to investigate Ningyuan.
