Chapter 125: The Crazy Plays The Crazy

In fact, the few people here are more or less familiar with what Ryan said. Maybe James Cameron doesn't care about it. After all, he is a pure director and producer. Shirley Lansing and Grant Hill are managers of their respective companies, so why can't they be clear about the market trends?

However, I worked in the cinema chain in my previous life. When it comes to understanding the Chinese film market, Ryan can surpass them ten major streets.

"But they are still poor and backward..."

Ryan waved his hand and interrupted Grant Hill, "Yes, they are still a little behind now, but have you ever thought about Grant? They only started to develop in the early 1980s, and what they have become now? They have created economic miracles. In the next few years, their development will be faster. With money, they naturally need entertainment. You should have watched Chinese movies introduced to North America by Miramax. Do you think they can compete with us? Do you think most viewers like to watch those dull movies?"

Shirley Lansing and Grant Hill smiled. As professionals who are interested in developing the Chinese market, they naturally watched several movies from China. To be honest, they learned European styles. As for European movies, the entire European market is almost captured by Hollywood big productions.

However, Ryan did not let them go, and continued, "Think about it, a market of more than one billion people, as long as they can have one percent of them buy tickets, it will be such a huge number!"

For a moment, Shirley Lansing and Grant Hill were both in contemplation. The future depicted by Ryan was so attractive. Who wouldn't want to open up that market?

"So!" Ryan flexed his knuckles and gently tapped the armrest of the chair. "In the movies we made, try to avoid the appearance of Chinese as villains. If there must be Asian villains, you can choose the world's number one military power and his fat marshal!"

Maybe I am used to joking, but Ryan said it without his brain. Several people were confused. They could understand that for the sake of the Chinese market, they would not let the Chinese be villains in the movies, just like Hollywood for the Japanese and Korean markets, but what is the world's number one military power? And the fat Marshal?

Fortunately, Ryan immediately understood that he had missed his mouth and explained, "North Korea!"

Slowly knocking his finger, Ryan recalled some of the situations in his previous life. There is no doubt that the boss of Chinese movies is Zaoshan Diao. I wonder if he is now a leader. If Paramount finds the right way, it is possible that Hollywood blockbusters will enter China in advance.

He sighed softly, he really couldn't remember it.

Speaking of which, I have been talking about this, but I just want the filmmakers there to broaden my horizons in advance. Hollywood movies are inevitable to enter the mainland. If some people can open their eyes earlier and not hold European things all day long, Chinese movies may have a different future.

No matter what, he was also a part of this industry in his previous life. Although he was at the bottom of the board, he really hoped that an Oriental Hollywood would appear, even if he understood that it was an out of reach.

But the other side of the Pacific Ocean has a profound cultural heritage. As long as those people understand what the audience wants to watch earlier, they may still have the power to resist when facing Hollywood productions. Unlike in previous lives, when Hollywood blockbusters were released, domestic films retreated one after another.

The commercialization of art is like the commercialization of professional sports. It is inevitable. Only by heading forward can the gap be narrowed. Ryan couldn't help but think of the 'DOG.MA95' declaration in the movie circle in his previous life. He really wanted to ask those people, are you shooting movies for yourself or for the audience?

As for the 'DOG.MA95' declaration, what is that...

Wuluo's past or present life, Ryan grew up from a cold and indifferent atmosphere, and was used to the dark side of society. He never thought he was noble. In addition to considering the people around him, he often took the word "benefit".

Doing this is just a wake-up call for the other side. Whether this approach is right or wrong, useful or useless, it is an explanation to the soul from the other side.

Of course, that's all, he is not so stupid that he can't tell the difference in his identity.

After all, he is just a little devil, and his identity has determined his position. If some people don’t work hard, don’t complain about the market and the audience.

I just need to know what I am doing and what I care about, that's enough! Ryan sighed in his heart, letting go of the change of identity, he only had one person he cared about in his previous life, and there were two in this life, Nico one, and Natalie the other.

The filming of "The True Lies" continues. James Cameron is famous for his slow work and meticulous work. Although there are troubles with reporters around the country, his name as a tyrant has spread throughout the circle after "Terminator 2". Under almost strict regulations, no one dares to easily reveal information to the media.

A few days later, good news came from the personnel responsible for communicating with the Pentagon. The military will provide the movie with three "Sea Harrier" fighters, but the appearance fee is high, and each aircraft will be paid up to $100,000.

The sea breeze was rustling, and the voices were boiling on the "Seven Mile" Bridge, which was empty in the past. The crew's equipment trailers and helicopters used to shoot were all parked nearby.

The crew could not take a photo on the cross-sea bridge where cars came and went, so they could only requisition this abandoned "Seven Mile" bridge. James Cameron was not ashamed of his money-burning talent. Not only did he rent several helicopters, but he also temporarily repaired the gap deliberately blown out of the bridge.

"Ryan, are you interested in acting as my assistant?" James Cameron took pictures of the camera beside him, as if he was going to go into the battle himself.

"No problem." Anyway, Ryan felt that it was no big deal.

"Jim~Jim~"

Jamie Lee Curtis, who had put on makeup, hurried over, and was a little excited, "Don't use a substitute? What do you mean is to let me go on the battle yourself..."

Listening to Jamie Lee Curtis's words like a cannon, Ryan roughly understood what was going on. The next shot is Schwarzenegger's capture of Jamie Lee Curtis from the helicopter and flew over the sea. Schwarzenegger's role is naturally completed by a stand-in, but in order to enhance the sense of reality, Cameron asked Curtis to play in person.

This... is really crazy. Jamie Lee Curtis is one of the most popular actresses in Hollywood. She can completely refuse such a request from James Cameron.

However, something unexpected happened.

Jamie Lee Curtis pointed to his chin and questioned James Cameron, "What are you going to do when I'm hanging in the air?"

"I will stick out of the cabin and use a handheld camera to take pictures of your picture!" As if to strengthen my tone, Cameron also took pictures of the camera next to him.

Obviously, this sentence was beyond everyone's expectations. Jamie Lee Curtis was stunned and confirmed, "Really?"

"Really!" Cameron pointed in order to strengthen his persuasion, "Jamie, Ryan will act as my assistant. You should be satisfied, right?"

"Okay! I've done it!"

Jamie Lee Curtis agreed without hesitation.

"Wait... wait..." Ryan reacted, as if he had been forced onto the pirate ship by James Cameron.

"Hey, Ryan, you're going to regret it, right?" Cameron said in a word.

Repent? I don’t know if I have to take a helicopter to shoot. Ryan understood. He usually digs a hole and waits for others to jump, but today Cameron dug a hole and waits for himself to jump down, but he jumped stupidly.

Although he has been unconsciously away from possible dangers since his rebirth, he still disdained to repent such a thing in public. After communicating with another safety assistant of Cameron, he changed into safety suits and got on the helicopter with a beard carrying a camera.

"Check the seat belt!" the pilot shouted.

"No problem!" Ryan gave a thumbs up ahead and made an OK gesture to George below.

The sound of the propeller buzzed, and the whirring wind blew everywhere. Ryan looked out the window and saw the plane slowly leaving the ground and rising towards the sky.

"Prepare! Prepare!"

The security assistant used a loudspeaker to remind the stuntman and Jamie Lee Curtis under the plane.

“Ah~”

When the helicopter flew out of the bridge and came above the sea, the iconic scream of the screaming queen reached Ryan's ears, and he turned his body and looked down.

Jamie Lee Curtis hung under the helicopter like a human-shaped gourd. At this time, there was no need for acting skills. The strong wind brought by the propeller and the sea water kept falling on her. Even if she was filmed for a long time in horror film, she couldn't avoid panic and screaming.

"Left! Left!"

James Cameron has reached the extreme requirements for every detail and has constantly reminded the pilot to fine-tune the direction so that he can get the best shooting angle.

"Ryan, do you want to try it?"

In the buzzing noise, James Cameron's tragic voice came over, and Ryan refused without thinking, "Just be your assistant."

Then, I added in my heart that I just want to make soy sauce. You should do dangerous things.

"OK! That's it, keep your current flight!"

To some extent, some movie actors and directors are crazy people, such as the two Ryan met today.

James Cameron quickly adjusted his seat belt and stuck most of his body out of the cabin. While carrying the camera in one hand, he kept gestured to Jamie Lee Curtis with the other hand, reminding her to pay attention that shooting is about to start.

It was simply to ask the camera to avoid life! Ryan widened his eyes. If it weren't for those seat belts, Cameron would have fallen off the plane and landed in the sea.

To prevent it, Ryan and his security assistant grabbed the buckle on Cameron's safety suit. If something unexpected happened, it would be better to pull this guy.
