Go abroad to become a director and overturn Hollywood at the box office

Chapter 27 A respectable villain, planning a new movie

"It's just..." Zou Zhaolong sighed.

"In Hollywood, there are not many roles for Chinese people."

"The ones I can receive now are still mainly villains."

Qin Feng lamented in his heart that if he acted as a villain too often, his acting would be restricted, and few people would let him play the leading role.

"If this is still the case." Zou Zhaolong continued, "I will not take the role here."

"Aren't they all the same?" Qin Feng asked while holding dishes.

"Different."

Zou Zhaolong took a bite of noodles and said, "In Hong Kong, it doesn't matter if I play a villain, it doesn't matter how bad I am."

"But in Hollywood, I represent the face of the Chinese people. I can't take on such a villain, as it will easily discredit the Chinese people."

When Qin Feng heard this, he felt in awe.

I didn't expect that Zou Zhaolong, a professional villain, would have such a profound understanding of justice.

This kung fu practitioner has something different in mind.

"Then...what will you do in the future?"

"Alas!" Zou Zhaolong sighed, "I haven't thought about it yet."

Qin Feng said: "You have a look here. If it doesn't work, you should go back to the mainland for development."

"As you can see in recent years, Hong Kong films have been in decline, and they are only supported by old faces. They are no longer like their peak period in the 90s."

"On the contrary, the mainland's film market is booming, and there are now more investments in martial arts and action films. You can definitely do it."

Zou Zhaolong also said: "Yes, if it doesn't work, go to the mainland. Eh? Mr. Qin, what did you think at that time, coming to the United States for development?"

Qin Feng was a little embarrassed, "Me? Haha, I made a science fiction film in China, lost some money, and then came to the United States."

"Oh……"

Qin Feng thought of something and put down his chopsticks.

"Mr. Zou, I have something to tell you."

"You said."

"In the future I may make a science fiction film about hackers, and then I will have to ask you to be the martial arts instructor and play another role."

"Don't worry, it's a positive role."

Zou Zhaolong nodded, "Well, no problem, I'll come whenever I'm free."

The two chatted for a while.

After dinner, we each left our mobile phone numbers and separated.

In the next few days, Dr. Qin Fenghe or Na and the special effects artists polished the dinosaur special effects every day.

With everyone's efforts, the dinosaur's movements are becoming smoother and smoother.

The work is over, and the rest can be done remotely.

That afternoon, Qin Feng returned to Los Angeles with Dr. Orna.

At the same time, various promotional designs of the art department have been launched.

Promotional posters, various material designs, and poster designs for reprinting on the Internet are all in full swing.

At this stage, Qin Feng's pressure decreased.

He had to prepare for his next move.

Saturday.

He drove and took Scarlett to the outskirts of the city.

Here is surrounded by mountains and rivers, and the scenery is pleasant.

The two of them were leaning against the car, holding drinks in their hands, looking at the scenery in the distance comfortably.

Scarlett asked: "Qin Feng, what are you thinking about?"

"I'm thinking about the next movie."

"Then, have you thought about it?"

"Well...almost."

Qin Feng closed his eyes slightly, and the video library in his brain kept popping up like a revolving lantern.

"Scarlett, for the next movie, I want to be the director myself."

"Okay, hasn't it always been your dream to be a director?"

"Yes, you said...what do you think if I make a movie and make a lot of money quickly?"

"A lot of wealth, how much do you mean?"

"very many……"

"Of course it's good! That means this movie is very popular with the audience and everyone is willing to buy tickets to watch it."

"But Qin Feng." Scarlett suddenly remembered something and turned around, "Now that you have money, you won't ignore me, right?" Looking at Scarlett with an angry look on his face, Qin Feng looked harmlessly at him. Shrugging, "How? Am I that kind of person?"

"Hmph! If you dare to ignore me, I will find mercenaries to kidnap you."

Qin Feng knew she was joking and smiled slightly. At the same time, a movie played in his mind.

He saw the message of the film clearly.

Heart Road:

I also want to independently shoot a science fiction movie with big production and special effects, but it’s not allowed at this stage!
Although, in order to be an independent director in Hollywood, I can only start with this low-cost film!

Scarlett noticed that he was in a daze again, "What are you thinking about again?"

Qin Feng reached out and gently hugged her waist, saying softly:

"direction."

Scarlett's heart moved and she snuggled on his shoulder.

……

night.

Qin Feng opened his laptop.

Type the next title: "This Man is from Earth"

This is a drama and science fiction film.

In the original world was released in 2007, this world has not yet been filmed.

The production cost is only $2.

The box office...

The global box office has accumulated US$3.5 million! ! !
A truly ultra-low-budget, high-grossing movie.

A model of low cost and high returns, it can be said to be a big lottery win!
This is more like a indoor sitcom than a science fiction film.

There are no big-name stars and no gorgeous CGI animation.

There are only two scene changes, inside and outside the house. The whole play is basically just a few people chattering in the house.

It's about:

A caveman who lived for 1.4 years tells his story to his current colleagues.

The dialogue throughout the play is gripping and the philosophy in it is evocative.

Qin Feng was so full of literary thoughts that he spent more than four hours writing the script in one go.

He stood up and moved around, then went back and read through it, revising some of the dialogue.

"OK, this turnaround depends on you!"

……

The later stages of the Jurassic movie are proceeding step by step.

Qin Feng completed his job well.

New movies are also being actively prepared.

The film only required one protagonist and seven supporting actors.

Supporting roles are relatively simple. You can choose them on the Screen Actors Guild website based on the film information in your mind.

As for the protagonist, the original actor was David Smith.

Qin Feng decided to look for him anyway. Looking for someone else might not be the same.

David Smith is a low-key man and not well-known.

Qin Feng found his phone number from the guild website and called him immediately.

"Hello?" The other party has been connected.

"Hello, is this Mr. Smith?"

"I am, you are..."

"I am a film director. I have a script on hand. The male protagonist in it is very suitable for you. I would like to talk to you in person."

"oh, I see……"

David Smith on the other end of the phone was full of doubts. He seemed to have not played a leading role in a long time.

When you receive a call like this, you will inevitably think it is harassment or something.

"Mr. Smith, don't worry, the projects and scripts I have on hand are absolutely accurate."

"The first half of the script has been sent to your email. Please take a look at it tonight. Please don't refuse this project."

David Smith then thought about it. Anyway, I haven't been approached for any drama recently and I'm too busy. Why not go to his place and have a look? There's nothing to lose.

"Okay, I'll read the script."

"Send me the time and place too!"
