806. There are rules in every industry(1/4)
“…”
“…”
When Chen Hu translated what Xu Xin said to Keanu Reeves again, the other party fell into silence.
To be honest, based on Keanu Reeves's interpretation experience, Xu Xin's words would not have shocked him so much that he could not even make a word come out.
He became famous at a young age and had seen countless storms in Hollywood.
If you want to give him the impression of "Wow, this script is simply a masterpiece of God", it may be...but it is definitely not the script of "Tai Chi Hero" modified by Xu Xin in front of you.
But...then...
He was indeed speechless by "Tai Chi Hero".
Because... in the position of an actor, this magical story is not worth surprise. But as the upcoming new director... the proposal from another director began to develop some self-doubt in his heart.
To put it bluntly, he felt that he really couldn't control it.
No wonder people say that this script needs to be modified, so they have to find a director of the Celestial Empire.
They... know very well how to shoot such a script.
At the same time, I have to admit that even as an actor, Xu's move surprised him very much.
Because he sublimated the whole story.
From receiving the script to expressing your ideas, it took less than an hour to go.
It has suddenly sublimated a story that was originally very mediocre to a height that it did not belong to.
And, what he must admit is that he likes the sublimation story very much.
The same technology is a collision in different eras. A person seems to be fighting against a villain, but in fact it is a metaphor for his own inner demon.
This story...
He likes it very much.
So much so that he had decided to do this script as Xu said.
And this is what really makes him silent.
When he decided to follow Xu's idea, he realized that the difficulty of this job had increased to hell for him.
Now...
What should I do?
He looked at Chen Hu.
Chen Hu looked at him.
He looked at Xu Xin, and Chen Hu looked at Xu Xin too...
The two of them suddenly couldn't figure it out.
At this time, Chen Hu thought about it and asked Xu Xin:
"Director Xu, then...if you do it according to your wishes... this script will probably have to be changed drastically, right?"
“Um…”
Xu Xin recalled the content of "Tai Chi Hero" again and said:
"As long as you have the direction, it shouldn't be difficult to find a reliable screenwriter... to put it bluntly, this script is a mirage imagined by Hollywood. You can see it, but you can't catch people's hearts. I don't know the audience here in Hollywood, but the same sentence is still the same. This plot is difficult for domestic audiences to accept. Because it is too old and too naive. So, my suggestion is that if you really think my opinion is reliable, then you might as well take it back to China and find domestic screenwriters to Runyirun."
During Chen Hu's thinking, Xu Xin continued:
"First find the screenwriter to polish it. After you get the script that you are satisfied with, Keanu can continue to explore and shoot this story. In fact, the only thing you need to pay attention to here is to help him understand some of the philosophy in the script that belongs to us. If he understands it, then it will be easy to shoot. This movie is actually not difficult. For newcomers, it can only be said to be a little challenge, but it will definitely not be unattainable."
“…”
“…”
Keanu Reeves and Chen Hu had the same thoughts in his mind at this moment.
Why don’t you feel so painful when you speak?
Is this a small challenge?
So, what is the big challenge for you?
Are you sure this is something a new director should play?
...
In the end, Keanu Reeves and Chen Hu decided to adopt Xu Xin's suggestion.
We chatted all morning.
Finally, Keanu Reeves invited everyone to have a meal together.
While having a meal, I was still chatting.
The final opinion was that they were indeed going to the Tian Dynasty. Xu Xin also agreed to introduce them to a few screenwriters and everyone sat down to talk.
This story was originally intended to realize the dream, but now, the dream has been given wings. It is natural that there is no reason to continue crawling against the ground.
Chen Hu wants to fly, and Keanu Reeves wants to help his brother fly.
Xu Xin handed them a pair of wings.
Then, everything is ready, and they are only one Dongfeng.
Looking for a screenwriter is just a small task for Xu Xin.
As of now, unless the symbol of the circle faction is too strong, there are few screenwriters in the entire Chinese film industry whom he cannot contact.
They all have to give him three points of thin air.
There is no other reason, it's just because he's strong enough.
After a meal, Xu Xin stood up and said goodbye.
After he left, Chen Hu and Keanu Reeves took a bus back together.
He drove, and Keanu Reeves was in the co-pilot.
After the two of them were silent for two intersections, Chen Hu heard his good brother say:
"A guy like a genius."
Chen Hu was stunned, thought for a while, and asked:
"Do you say this from the director's perspective or from the actor's perspective?"
"Of course it's the latter, brother."
A hint of emotion appeared on Keanu Reeves' face.
"He gives me the feeling that he is no worse than other directors he has worked with. Or... they are the same type of people. They are equally outstanding and have surprising talents!"
Hearing this, Chen Hu had no intention of refuting.
Instead, nodded slightly:
"yes……"
He gave a positive answer with convincing heart:
"So amazing!"
...
"I'm back? How are you talking about? What's the story?"
"A story that is so ordinary that it can't be more ordinary. I probably talked about it and gave some advice on the direction."
This is what Xu Xin gave to his wife after returning home.
After hearing this, Yang Mi didn't care.
I don't even bother to ask about some details.
Early in the morning on the 15th.
The family headed to Toronto.
On the one hand, it is to adapt to the environment there, and on the other hand, it is to find a house you like.
Although the crew provided full hotel reimbursement fees, it would definitely be more convenient for the family to rent a house.
Of course, it’s not impossible to buy, but it will be very troublesome.
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Coincidentally, Kobe is also in Toronto.
The Lakers challenge the Toronto Raptors away tonight.
For game days, players usually stay in hotels or stadiums for training. But for Kobe, who has been in this league for more than ten years, has become accustomed to all factors related to home and away games, and no one cares about him.
After learning that Xu Xin and Yang Mi were coming, he sent a message and greeting.
"Hey, Xu, do you have time to come to the stadium tonight? Do you want to leave you a few tickets?"
