Chapter 250 Inspiring? Making Money
"When will I be able to star in a movie like this?"
Wang Shengyi gazed at the screen, her eyes filled with longing and anticipation. She couldn't help but turn to Zhang San, who was equally engrossed in the film. Zhang San casually remarked, "If a Chinese character suddenly appeared in a movie like this, wouldn't the audience find it jarring and easily lose immersion?"
Hearing this, Wang Shengyi felt a little uncomfortable. She thought Zhang San was a real spoilsport, ruining the atmosphere.
However, Zhang San seemed unaware that he had angered those around him, and continued to stare intently at the screen, immersed in the movie plot.
Wang Shengyi muttered angrily, "How come you have absolutely no romantic sense?!" Then she turned her head away and ignored him.
Zhang San chuckled and patted her shoulder, saying, "Don't be angry. I only mentioned the most likely possibilities, and they'll only ever think about it. But you're different; you'll definitely have a chance. If such a chance comes, maybe you can give it a try, and you might be pleasantly surprised."
Hearing Zhang San's words, Wang Shengyi's dissatisfaction eased slightly. She thought about it and realized Zhang San's words made sense. So the two quietly watched the movie, imagining what it would be like if they could participate in it.
When it comes to making movies, it's not just mainland Chinese actors who want to act in Hollywood; actors from other countries also want to participate in Hollywood films. In their eyes, they believe that it is the holy land of movies.
Especially in Hong Kong, after 1995, a large number of actors and stars began to go there to film movies. The most famous one should be Big Brother Lung, who achieved great success and influence there.
Bruce Lee, who brought "Gongfu" to the world even earlier, became famous worldwide.
Later, there was Chow Yun-fat, who also went to Hollywood to try his luck. In Hong Kong, he had already reached the pinnacle of what a filmmaker could achieve, so he wanted to try his luck in Hollywood.
There were many more later on, including those who spent a lot of money but only played minor roles.
Why do so many people aspire to make movies in Hollywood?
Some say it's the temple of cinema, attracting countless people to venture within. Others say Hollywood is a symbol of cinematic art, representing endless possibilities.
Of course, outsiders believe that here, creativity and talent can be freely expressed, and everyone has the opportunity to become part of a legend.
For passionate actors, Hollywood is their stage to showcase their talents. They yearn to demonstrate their acting skills on the big screen, collaborate with world-class directors and actors, and experience the charm and challenges of their roles.
For directors and producers, Hollywood is the ideal place to realize their creative ideas, hoping to move audiences and create unforgettable cinematic experiences through their work.
Ultimately, it's nothing more than the allure of fame and fortune.
Here, a successful film can bring immense wealth and fame, an irresistible attraction for many. They yearn to gain recognition through their hard work and talent, and to make a name for themselves in this competitive industry.
Putting everything else aside, this is nothing more than a stage for fame and fortune where one person rises and another falls.
Zhang San had long seen through everything there. Some things could be solved by spending money, while others couldn't be solved by money because they wanted more.
"Is the next movie 'Iron Man'?"
Wang Shengyi asked Zhang San with some curiosity. Zhang San didn't look at her and just said directly, "Iron Man will be released in a month. Originally, another movie, Captain America, was supposed to be released, but they refused. I can only go along with their wishes and release Iron Man instead."
The success of the movie "Mutant Spider-Man" shows that the North American entertainment industry has begun to recover. Naturally, his "Iron Man" can be released. Moreover, "Kara's Pirates of the Caribbean 2" will be released this Christmas. It's not that we don't want to release it during the summer, but we have no choice. No one can predict what the summer will be like.
They can't risk hundreds of millions of dollars, even if Zhang San is the one who provides the money.
In 2002, at least five or six blockbuster films were released. Movies that were originally scheduled for release the previous Christmas were all postponed. The attack had a huge impact on them.
Now it's all good, it can be released.
In North America, newspaper headlines have already appeared saying: These movies can boost people's confidence and heal their emotional wounds.
Many people in North America, it is said—and this is just hearsay, I don't know if it's true—that they don't even know where the capital is, and that they don't know where any place in the world is; their geography is terrible.
Moreover, I've heard that they are all prone to breakdowns, and that a large proportion of them are very fragile. If a fragile-hearted decision-maker were to take over in such a place, wouldn't a humanitarian disaster occur when his fragile heart breaks?
"It's better to show them these fictional movies, to let them live in the movies rather than in reality. That's the right way for them to experience life."
Zhang San muttered something, but Wang Shengyi didn't hear him clearly; he just glanced at him curiously.
Today I accompanied Wang Shengyi to the movies, tomorrow I'll accompany Amy, a few days later I'll accompany Fang Xiaobing, and finally I'll accompany Gao Yuanyuan to the movies.
He felt his life was incredibly busy. He wondered if he'd get sick of watching movies by then. He was just lost in his own thoughts, unable to concentrate on the film.
To be fair, "Mutant Spider-Man" is a pretty good commercial movie; at least Zhang San watched it with great interest, otherwise other viewers wouldn't have been so engrossed.
The next day, after leaving Wang Shengyi's villa and returning to his own villa in Shanghai, Amy saw Zhang San return. She brought over a folder with some information written on it and said, "Boss, news came from North America about the box office. This time, the box office has far exceeded expectations... Mr. Robert said that 'Iron Man' will be released as scheduled next month, and 'Knockin's Pirates' will also be released as planned around Christmas..."
"Amy, money is just a number to me. Would you do me the honor of inviting you to a movie, beautiful lady?"
Zhang San even struck a gentlemanly pose, and the way he did that... Amy smiled beautifully, and her previous office lady demeanor vanished instantly.
