"Take actors, for example. Before filming, all actors must memorize their lines by heart. In the few movies I shot, no matter which crew I was in, it was almost impossible to see any actor being dismissed because of lines.

Card."

"There is also the issue of attitude towards movies. Take "The Fast and the Furious" as an example. Basically, the crew has never used upgrading. No matter how dangerous it is, they have always insisted on not using upgrading, let alone any literary replacement."

"In addition to the actors, other departments of the crew are also very good. Our domestic crew is basically directed by the director himself. Things like photography, lighting, scene control, positioning, etc. are all decided by the director."

"But the Hollywood crew is different. The heads of their various departments have very strong professional capabilities. Before shooting, they will come up with various plans for the director to choose. The director is only responsible for overall planning."

"besides···"

Zhang Xiao briefly talked about what he saw and heard to the crew when he was filming in Hollywood, which made Dou Wentao and the three of them look thoughtful.

After Zhang Xiao finished speaking, Liang Wendao sighed deeply and said: "The gap, this is the gap. I have to admit that there is a reason why Hollywood has been able to dominate the film industry for decades."

Dou Wentao nodded and said: "Yes, so we have to catch up!"

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "But Hollywood movies are not without their weaknesses. The movies we see in China are basically movies that they think are very good, and those that are not so good account for about 95%."

"Furthermore, as movie fans' discernment has improved, their tastes have become more and more picky, and many Hollywood commercial blockbusters have become less and less popular."

"Whether it is an action movie or a science fiction movie, the shooting techniques used are basically the same, and the special effects images cannot give people a sense of freshness."

"If they can't solve this problem, within a few years, Hollywood movies will start to decline."

"You are right!" Dou Wentao nodded: "I have some statistics here. Last year, our country introduced a total of 34 Hollywood blockbusters, and only four of them had a box office of more than 800 million, which is far lower than the 16 domestic films.

.”

"The comments made by fans on the Internet generally think that it looks familiar and has no originality."

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "This is normal. Hollywood has almost tapped out the potential of all types of movies, but our country has a long history and endless potential."

"As time goes by, I believe our Chinese films will be able to catch up with Hollywood, or even surpass it."

Dou Wentao patted his thigh and said excitedly: "That's good, come on, let's have a drink for Mr. Zhang's talk."

The four of them picked up their tea cups and drank together.

After drinking tea, Dou Wentao changed the subject again and said: "Mr. Zhang, since you officially debuted, I have discovered a phenomenon."

"Besides acting and promoting your work, you rarely attend events, right?"

"That's right!" Zhang Xiao nodded and said, "For me, life is life and work is work. I will not confuse the two."

Dou Wentao asked again: "Then what do you do when you are not filming?"

Zhang Xiao said with a smile: "I usually have a wide range of hobbies, including practicing boxing, reading books, watching movies, watching dramas, watching cross talk...occasionally I go to Teacher Yu's horse farm for a drink."

Dou Wentao asked curiously: "Are you having a party with people in your circle?"

"Is drinking with Brother Jie, Brother Jin, and Teacher Yu at the racecourse the kind of party you are talking about?" Zhang Xiao asked rhetorically.

Dou Wentao shook his head and said: "You are just playing among friends. I am talking about the kind of party that is slightly utilitarian."

"For example, many celebrities often attend dinner parties and so on in order to expand their network."

Zhang Xiao said bluntly: "I have never participated in this kind of thing, and I don't like it very much. You want me to get close to someone I don't know, pretending to be a snake, with a smile on my face? Then you might as well give me a knife directly.

"

Liang Wendao smiled and said: "Are you martial arts practitioners all like this? It's okay for others to beg you, but you can't beg for help. Even if you know that you are wrong, you still have to hold on and refuse to admit it."

"No!" Zhang Xiao replied simply and neatly: "At least I am not. I can go to Qiu Ren, but if you show a little bit of embarrassment, I will leave immediately and will never embarrass you."

"As for the question of right and wrong, if I am wrong, I will solemnly apologize to you. Whether you are beaten or scolded, I can bear it."

"But, if I am right, I will definitely persist to the end. Even if you are in a high position, even if you are powerful, I will not bow my head. I would rather die standing than live on my knees."

"For example, everyone has heard of the incident between me and a certain great director!"

The three of them smiled and nodded.

Zhang Xiao continued: "Same thing, if my nephew or my son went to steal someone else's girlfriend, was bullied, and sued me, what do you think I would do?"

None of the three people spoke, but stared at Zhang Xiao intently.

Zhang Xiao understood that it was really inconvenient for the three of them to express their opinions on the show, so he laughed and said: "I'd better say it directly. If I met him, I would break his legs in front of the couple."

Then I solemnly apologize to them."

Ma Weidu said: "Are you the kind of person who helps with family matters but not with relatives?"

"The treatment is the most reasonable in the world." Zhang Xiao nodded and said: "When I went to film "The Legend of the Cat Demon" before, I learned about some of the unpleasantness Mimi had with Director Chen."

"It was said that when Mimi was filming a movie directed by Chen, she actually had three filming contracts at the same time. Later, Director Chen couldn't stand it and kicked her out of the crew."

"After Mimi told me about this, I only said two words, she deserved it."

"Hahaha!" The three of them couldn't help laughing.

Dou Wentao smiled and said: "Then Mimi must have been very angry at that time, right?"

"That's not true." Zhang Xiao shook his head and said, "She also knew that what she did was wrong. She told me that she just wanted to find some comfort."

Dou Wentao quickly answered: "But she didn't expect that you, a straight man, not only failed to comfort me, but also sided with Director Chen."

"Yes." Zhang Xiao nodded and said, "I told her directly at that time that she must admit her mistakes and stand upright when she is beaten."

"If I were the director back then, let alone three dramas, I would have to ask you out even if you had one drama outside."

"If an actor wants to perform well, he must be single-minded. Even if he is an actor or actress, it is difficult to switch between two completely different roles."
