2264 [digging a pit]

"Miss Zhong has worked hard too~" Xia Tian smiled at Zhong Liti again.

"You're welcome, Mr. Xia, it's my honor to be able to star in the movie you invested in. It's my honor to be able to work with Brother Hong and Brother Cheng Long." Zhong Liti smiled obediently, and she had two dimples when she smiled, looking sweet and cute.

"It's also my honor to have a girl like Miss Zhong, who is a cute girl who starred in my movie." Xia Tian smiled.

One sentence made Zhong Liti excited.

"Mr. Xia, for this preview, we have invited many film critics and media people. Do you want to meet them?" The head of the Propaganda Department came over and suggested.

Xia Tian nodded, "Let's lead the way."

The person in charge brought Xiatian to the preview venue and saw that there were more than 50 people here, including film critics, media people, and fans from all walks of life, men and women, young and old.

When they saw Xia Tian, ​​they couldn't help but be very excited.

Summer is not only a top rich man, but also a top media tycoon, a top film director and screenwriter...

For ordinary people like them, it is not common for big people like Xia Tian, ​​so when you meet them by chance, you will naturally be so excited that you will come forward and shake hands with Xia Tian.

After a long chaos, the person in charge introduced the film critics and media people to Xia Tian to meet.

"Mr. Xia, congratulations to you, "The Silence of the Lambs" for winning the Jury Award and Best Actor Award at the Cannes Film Festival. I heard that it caused a very good response when it was released at the Cannes Film Festival, but I don't know when it will be released in the United States?"

"Mr. Xia, when will your new work be prepared? Do you have any ideas so far?"

"Mr. Xia, is your new film collaborating with Tianxia Production or Columbia Pictures?"

They asked one after another.

"Everyone, today is the preview of the movie "Red Fan District". Our problem is best to focus on this movie. As for my movie, can we find opportunities to discuss it in the future?" Xia Tian waved his hand. He didn't want to steal the limelight from Cheng Long and Hong Jingbao.

To be honest, with his current popularity and status, as long as he talks about his new film, then tomorrow, the newspaper will focus on reporting on his new film.

As for Cheng Long, the "Red Fan District" that Hong Jingbao just filmed will not get any page at all.

Winners take all! The Matthew effect is particularly obvious in the entertainment industry.

Big-name stars, having a meal, dyeing their heads, shopping around, and doing anything casually can be on the hot search; small-name stars, even if they break their legs and are tired of filming, they will not even have any reports.

...

"Mr. Xia, why did you invite so many Chinese stars to perform in this movie? Does this indicate that you prefer Chinese actors? Will you reduce the chances of performing white actors and other ethnic actors in the future?" a media person asked with a heart-wrenching question.

Xia Tian was stunned and then smiled, "Of course not. You can watch the movies and series launched by our Columbia Pictures and Tianxia Productions in recent years. We absolutely do not discriminate against actors. Among the staff of our company, in addition to Chinese, there are also many whites and other minorities.

There is an old saying in China that Confucius said, "Do not do to others what you do not want others to do to you." Everyone knows that we Chinese have always suffered from racial discrimination, so we will no longer impose such humiliation on others."

Hearing his words, the media person had nothing to say.

Xia Tian smiled again, talked to them about the creation process of "Red Fan District" and shared some interesting stories about the creation process.

After the chat, the host and guests had fun and the trial officially began.

"Don't invite that media person again in the future." When everyone started watching movies, Xia Tian pulled the publicity person aside and reminded him.

The media person asked this kind of question with ulterior motives.

If Xia Tian’s answer is not good, she will be labeled as racial discrimination. And if a Chinese discriminates against whites and blacks, how can he gain a foothold in the United States? This is clearly a digging hole for Xia Tian’s feet.

Fortunately, Xia Tian was not that stupid. He even jumped into the pit even though he knew it was a pit. He used the reason that Chinese people were also racially discriminated against, blocking the media person's mouth.

But then again, the media person was actually right. Xia Tian really prefers to use Chinese, which will reduce the chances of performing white and black actors.

This is understandable, and it is true for anyone.

For example, the proportion of Indians in Silicon Valley companies is very high, and the proportion of high positions accounts for about 30%. For example, Google and Microsoft are all Indians. Twenty years ago, among Silicon Valley companies, the proportion of Indians and Chinese was even.

The reason why such a big change has occurred is that Indians can join forces. After one person joins the company, they will introduce many fellow villagers to the company. After one person is promoted to the company's senior management, their employees will try to choose people of the same ethnic group. This has led to more and more Indians in Silicon Valley.

The purpose of summer entering Hollywood was to promote Hong Kong films, and the second was to open up the market for Hong Kong performing talents.

The US entertainment market is the largest in the world, with a single box office of up to tens of billions of dollars a year. In comparison, the highest annual box office in Hong Kong is only 1.2 billion Hong Kong dollars, which is more than one hundred times the difference.

Moreover, the entertainment industry in the United States is also very developed. From hardware technology research and development, equipment production and manufacturing, to software talent selection, training, hype, publicity, etc., it is beyond the reach of Hong Kong peers.

For example, video recorders, phonographs, imax, 3D, Dolby sound effects, computer special effects and other technologies are almost all developed in the United States.

For example, the release of the movie "Avatar" is simply a textbook for the release of a movie. Even people who were originally uninterested in movies and never watched movies could not help but buy tickets to watch under its strong publicity. This kind of ability, speaking of it, is serious and terrifying.

Xia Tian is committed to bringing Hong Kong's performing talents to Hollywood to develop, and on the one hand, it makes room for the newcomers later. Just like South Korean idol stars, after reaching the top, they will consider going abroad to expand their territory.

On the one hand, for Hong Kong filmmakers, it is definitely a huge leap, no less than a carp leaping over the dragon gate. You can learn a lot of knowledge from this and greatly improve yourself.

Of course, it is also possible that others have not learned it, but they will be squeezed out by others, and eventually lose their value and thrown back as waste.

After Hong Kong performing talents come to the United States, they will definitely provide opportunities in summer. In the entertainment industry, there have always been more monks and less porridge. If they have more money on one side, there will definitely be less on the other side. This is an inevitable fact.

Therefore, there are more opportunities for Chinese performing, and there will inevitably be fewer opportunities for whites and blacks.

But this kind of thing is unreasonable. After all, whites and blacks together account for more than 95% of American ethnic groups.

If you offend them, no matter how rich or powerful it is in the summer, it will be difficult for you to stay in the United States.

So he absolutely does not allow anyone to ask such questions, and he cannot let anyone have the idea of ​​questioning him.
