Chapter 1,139 Li Lianjie’s Advice

Kneel down, smile, bow your head, so I am honored.

Without truly standing at that step, it is absolutely impossible to enjoy that peerless loneliness and invincible emptiness. More people fall down on the way to the top.

As a filmmaker, if you go to Hollywood, it is the closest place to the top on this road to the top. No one can deny the fact that Hollywood is the most profitable place to produce movies.

Although when it comes to art, Hollywood cannot compete with France, and when it comes to history, Hollywood has been left behind dozens of streets by China. As far as bragging is concerned, the stick can completely destroy Hollywood, but Hollywood is the most profitable place to produce movies. No one can doubt this. of.

Therefore, going to Hollywood to realize your dream of dominating the world is a dream of almost all aspiring filmmakers. As for other things, it is not that simple on such a question. can be explained clearly.

Therefore, under such a situation, no matter how it is said, at this time, what everyone is really thinking about is how to climb to Hollywood first.

Li Lianjie is actually a person like this. He already has his own style and fame in Hollywood. Even if he has not reached the peak, he is still one step away from the top.

This is an achievement that many filmmakers should be proud of.

But at this time, Li Lianjie was not satisfied at all. He was not satisfied with his current state. When he was making movies, what kind of people could stop his dreams, but what about his dreams now? He asked himself that he was getting further and further away from his dream of making a movie.

Therefore, Li Lianjie was very worried at this moment. He knew that it would be difficult for him to break through, so he chose a very extreme method.

At this moment, everyone thought that Li Lianjie had gone to Hollywood. Wu Yusen's "Wind Talker" invited Li Lianjie to play a role. Most people knew that this was a good opportunity for Li Lianjie to make a comeback.

The director is also a Chinese director, and there is no cultural barrier with Li Lianjie, but under such circumstances, it is not easy to participate in this movie. Even if Li Lianjie cannot participate in the movie "Hot", then in such a thing, he will not have the leading role in a movie like "Hero". The result of this is almost a loss of human resources and wealth. Two empty ones.

Therefore, everyone thinks that Li Lianjie is now in Hollywood to be busy with the audition for "Wind Talker".

Therefore, no one would have thought that in such a situation, Li Lianjie would actually say "Huaxia," in a place like the capital of China.

And the place he came to was not another place, but a courtyard house owned by Ye Ming. This courtyard house was one of Ye Ming's many industries. It was even said that for these courtyard houses, Ye Ming set up a company to be responsible for the leasing of these courtyard houses. Cleaning and maintenance work, etc.

Now Li Lianjie is in a yard like this, and the one with Li Lianjie is Ye Ming. No matter how reporters asked Ye Ming if he would replace Li Lianjie to participate in the professional movie "Hero", anyway, Ye Ming just refused to admit that it was confirmed.

Emotionally, Ye Ming was with Li Lianjie at this time.

No one thought that in such a situation, Li Lianjie and Ye Ming would be together. The two were neither friends nor enemies. They could even be said to be strangers. People.

But now looking at the relaxed expressions on the two people's faces when they are talking, it seems that their relationship is not as simple as they thought.

Therefore, in such a situation, the scene of two people drinking tea and chatting together is very incredible.

At this time, Ye Ming said slowly: "Mr. Li, why are you doing this? Anyway, you have reached this point in Hollywood. Many people will envy you. As long as you carefully choose your scripts, your status in Hollywood will be high." It will only slowly rise online.

If it is said that you will come back to film "Hero", it seems that Hollywood is not willing to see it, so it is not easy to say about your future. "

It's not that Hollywood movie stars have never filmed outside of Hollywood, but no matter how it is, in a situation like this, Li Lianjie's choice to come back is a bad choice. If he really wants to If I choose to come back, it will not be so easy to go back to Hollywood.

At this time, Li Lianjie smiled slightly, as if he did not take such a thing into his heart. He said very calmly: "Actually, only now do I realize that although Hollywood is big, it is not my place. Oh, Hollywood is a very exclusive place. If I want to continue to stay in Hollywood under such circumstances, I must compromise, but I am not willing to compromise. I hate places like that. Shooting a movie in Hollywood, there's no freedom at all."

This is Li Lianjie's inner voice. When he was filming the movie, he actually felt this problem very clearly.

When shooting a movie in Hollywood, you are very constrained, which Li Lianjie doesn't really like. He is an actor and doesn't have that much thought for intrigues.

Ye Ming took a look and said curiously: "Is this one of the reasons why you came back?"

It seems that just for this reason, it is too simple. Li Lianjie nodded and said, "It's probably because of this. In fact, I had this idea when I was filming the tiger coming out of the cage.

It was originally intended to be a film about ambition, but after signing the contract, I realized that the content was a bit uncomfortable. If an American actor plays this role, there is probably no problem. For example, the same person stars in Tarzan.

But the tiger is out of the cage is just a more respectable way of saying it. In Asia, this movie is called "Danny the Wolf Dog". Anyway, I have been labeled as a traitor and a traitor, and it has become a model of insulting the Chinese. This movie has also been my life. Stains that cannot be washed away.

But I had no choice. The contract was signed and repaid at the time. The script I read when signing the contract was very different from the script shot on location. Even if I want to protest, at a time like this, I can't stop performing. When I sign a contract, I must film it. This is the rule of Hollywood. If you don't have enough ability to break the rules, then you have to endure it when it comes to such a problem. "

"Danny the Wolf Dog", this movie had a huge impact on Li Lianjie's reputation. Therefore, after filming this movie, he even said he didn't go to the premiere. This is bullying, and he didn't have a contract anyway. It is stipulated that the leading actor must attend the premiere.

Perhaps starting from this movie, Li Lianjie also had plans to quit Hollywood.

Ye Ming hesitated for a moment and said curiously: "Is it possible to modify the script in Hollywood? I heard that in Hollywood, if the director wants to modify the script, then he must get the consent of the screenwriter, otherwise Even Spielberg doesn’t have the guts to take the initiative to revise a script.”

This is also a rule in Hollywood. There is no problem in modifying the script, but before you modify it, you must inform the screenwriter. If the screenwriter agrees to the modification, then you can modify it at this time.

If not, then there must be a very heavy price to pay for such a problem.

Li Lianjie nodded and said with certainty: "That's pretty much it. If the director modifies the script because he cannot get the approval of the screenwriter, the Screenwriters Guild will sue the director to bankruptcy.

But in the United States, great directors are generally good screenwriters. As a director, he is also a screenwriter. Such a combination makes it much more leisurely and unrestrained. And in a situation like this, no matter how it is said, in this matter, if the writer and director are combined into one, there will be no problem.

Moreover, at this time, I can clearly feel a good result on such a problem. Therefore, in Hollywood, the combination of director and screenwriter to modify the script is an invincible combination. I happened to meet such a director and screenwriter. "

Although the details of the script have been revised, the theme has not changed, which means it meets the requirements of the Screenwriters Guild.

Therefore, Li Lianjie must fulfill the contract. Although it was said at that time that he had endured it.

However, on such a question, since Li Lianjie said that he had a knot in his heart, it is normal for him to want to come back.

At this moment, Li Lianjie pondered for a while and said: "I have seen through what is going on over there, so I was wondering if I should come back to have fun, so I chose Zhang Yimou's [Hero], otherwise do you think there would be any reason for me to come back. "

At this time, what Li Lianjie said was true, but regardless of what it was like, Ye Ming still had a question about such a matter. At this moment, he thought about it and said cautiously: "Then why did you choose Cooperate with me. If that's the case, then I'm stepping on you to get the upper hand. In fact, this is not the result I need. I go to Hollywood by myself. Although it's not easy to get out, I think I can still do it. Arrived."

This matter can be regarded as stepping on Li Lianjie's rise to power. Therefore, Luo Tian expressed doubts about Li Lianjie's approach. Moreover, in such a matter, Li Lianjie's losses are not ordinary. Speaking of which, if Li Lianjie really does this, it will be Ye Ming's stepping stone in Hollywood.

Li Lianjie said with a smile: "Since this will come back sooner or later, then resist it properly. I cannot conquer Hollywood and reach the top. I, Cheng Long, Zhou Runfa, etc. are just pathfinders. Therefore, If you want to truly conquer Hollywood and reach the top, at least for people of our generation, I don’t think it is possible. Therefore, at this time, I put my hope in you, and I hope you can go as quickly as possible. Adapt to Hollywood, get to the top of Hollywood.”

This is a help to Ye Ming. In fact, at this time, the two of them were auditioning for heroes, and they were also recruiting actors for Wu Yusen's script "Wind Whisperer". With these news coming out, one could tell at a glance that there was a traitor, but The reporters never expected that the traitor was actually the two parties involved. That's right, the people who leaked these information are Li Lianjie and Ye Ming themselves.

When Ye Ming heard this, he felt a little confused about such a thing. He thought about it calmly and said, "There are many ways to climb this road."

Li Lianjie said with a smile: "But the fastest way is this. The fastest way for Hollywood to recognize Chinese actors is to say that this Chinese actor steps on another actor recognized by Hollywood. If we talk about these two If the actor is from the same country, then it will be even safer in such a matter.

Therefore, if you want people in Hollywood to recognize you as soon as possible, when you are doing well, it is the fastest way for you to step on me and rise to the top. I'm going back anyway, so it's good to warm up at this time and let you get to the top as soon as possible.

You have to remember one thing about Hollywood. It is not as glamorous as you think. The real glamor in Hollywood is only at the top. Only a few people at the top are qualified to enjoy this glamor. Otherwise, other people will not be able to enjoy it. They are all struggling hard.

It's not easy to get ahead. There are many people with good acting skills in Hollywood, but it doesn't mean that everyone can encounter a good script. Just remember this. Opportunities are very important. Seize every opportunity to realize your dreams. I know that you have more resources than us, so I am very optimistic about you. "

Hollywood is not an easy place to stay, so on this issue, Li Lianjie took the initiative to withdraw.

Except for Ye Ming, no one else knew that it was Li Lianjie who found Ye Ming. It was Li Lianjie who found Ye Ming. He hoped that Ye Ming would have a fight with him and pretend that life was not tolerated. In this case, the people in Hollywood would be very upset. He is quick to admit Ye Ming and step on his predecessors to get the upper hand. Such a person is a cold person. Only a cold person can become a great actor.

No matter why Hollywood has such a statement, most people admit it, and there is absolutely nothing wrong with it.

Ye Ming wanted to step on Li Lianjie and take the position, but he just said that this idea came from Li Lianjie himself. Even Li Lianjie's agent, John, didn't know what he really thought about this matter. (To be continued)
