Martin Scorsese is not a simple person. The director of "Raging Bull", "Goodfellas", "Casino" and "Gangs of New York", he won numerous awards in the first half of his life.

After being introduced, I learned that he was traveling from Hong Kong this time to purchase the overseas copyright of "Infernal Affairs", and that the Hollywood version of the crime thriller "The Departed" adapted from it has been put on the agenda.

The reason why this person came to the mainland was to visit Zhou Xingchi and his other target was Liu Qingshan.

Why are you paying attention to Liu Qingshan? A large part of this is because of the assassination on the streets of Xiangjiang some time ago.

Moreover, the candid footage has caused a huge sensation in Europe and the United States. Although some of Liu Qingshan's shots are blurry, their jaw-dropping speed and damage effects on the enemy have moved the entire European and American action circles.

What's more, they gave Liu Qingshan a very interesting nickname, "Alien Immigrant".

The reason for this nickname is said to come from Superman, the number one hero in the minds of Europeans and Americans.

It’s hard to say whether the image of Superman is a god in the minds of Europeans and Americans, but he has indeed become a cultural symbol.

It may not be true to say that he has always been the most popular, but generally speaking, in general character lists, such as influence, Superman will basically be placed first.

Because after all, the "American comics" that people are familiar with were started by this character, or Europe and America can be understood separately as the country of Lao America.

Superman, who symbolizes truth, justice and the spirit of old America, advances with the times of that country, and he is also considered to be a representative of universal values.

Of course, his identity is like that of an old beauty - an "immigrant" from an alien planet, and a completely native American growth experience. He has been with the old beauty for more than half a century, and they have grown together, but there are some elements Still holding on.

It is conceivable that giving Liu Qingshan the title of an alien immigrant equivalent to Superman shows how popular he is in Europe and the United States.

Moreover, that incident was based on the confirmation of the notorious assassination group. Therefore, for many people, Liu Qingshan's performance in the incident served as a social moral model.

Some media even reported that based on research on some contemporary European and American pop culture,

After visiting, researchers believe that in the eyes of ordinary people, Liu Qingshan has the image of a superhero, to a certain extent, like the heroic figures in the myths of ancient Greece and ancient Rome.

As for Liu Qingshan himself, of course he would not take such reports seriously. European and American society has always had the habit of over-exaggerating many social phenomena. The real purpose is to increase the circulation of newspapers.

However, it is a high praise to be able to associate him with a mythical hero. At least this kind of positive image is more popular than negative reports.

Originally, the director industry, which produces heroes, sneered at such boring flattery, and Martin Scorsese was one of them.

But after he came to Xiangjiang, he completely changed his previous views, because the people in Xiangjiang had a clearer detailed description of Liu Qingshan, and the in-depth reports on the incident itself were more detailed.

After learning this, Mrs. Helen Morris first saw that it was unusual, so she searched everywhere for information about Liu Qingshan.

And as he learned more, even Martin Scorsese became very interested.

The reason for the temporary decision to change the route to the mainland was to visit Zhou Xingchi. The real intention was to take this opportunity to get to know Liu Qingshan.

With Zhou Xingchi's shrewdness and wisdom, how could he not see this, but he and Martin Scorsese had met several times before, and they took advantage of the opportunity to recognize each other's reasons.

The two distinguished guests stayed with the film crew all morning and waited for the luncheon that the film crew arranged for them.

Almost everyone is speculating on the purpose of the two men, but no one thinks that Liu Qingshan may star in Martin Scorsese's next film.

Because the selection of actors in Hollywood is still very different from those in Mainland China, Mainland China, and Taiwan, especially for a new drama about to be shot by a big director like this.

Preparations for this kind of blockbuster shooting often start months in advance, and the competition among big-name stars is extremely fierce, with a kind of incompatible struggle.

However, once the final list is finalized, it will not be changed easily. This is because Europe and the United States attach great importance to the signing of actor contracts.

Once an actor's contract is signed, the actor himself, his agent, and his personal lawyer are all watching closely, and the actors' union and the agency are closely supervising it.

But also

This is not to say that the producers have no means at their disposal, but this requires cooperation from many aspects, including the media.

However, under normal circumstances, once the roster is finalized, there will be very few personnel changes, unless something happens to the actor himself.

There is a reason why the crew determined that the two guests came because of Liu Qingshan and not Zhou Xingchi. Even though Martin Scorsese stayed with Zhou Xingchi for most of the morning, and would do so from time to time.

Give some opinions.

However, since I came to visit Zhou Xingchi's class, there was no need to stay for this lunch.

Who is Martin Scorsese? He is so busy that his film appointments are scheduled for several years. How can he take a fancy to this free lunch?

Besides, he had been staying by Zhou Xingchi's side, so he had plenty of opportunities to say what he needed to say. Naturally, he waited eagerly until lunch time for another purpose.

Then combine the mysterious two people with Liu Qingshan, who is currently in the limelight, and it becomes obvious who the real attention is on.

As for why Liu Qingshan was approached, not many people believed that as a recognized martial arts master, he would condescend to provide a small action guide, even if the crew was a Hollywood blockbuster.

Since the position of an actor cannot be easily replaced, the only ones left for the director to decide are those positions related to the actor's profession.

With Liu Qingshan's ability and the influence that made him famous due to his videos, the only person who is most likely to be favored by the opponent is the action director of the stunt team.

But for a super crew like this, the shooting dates can take several months, sometimes a year or two at most. Liu Qingshan will never allow his acting career to be delayed by a small supporting job.

On Zhou Xingchi's part, he doesn't care about what others think, because he is more excited to have guidance from an expert. This old foreign man is a real and famous Hollywood director. He has won awards and is soft-handed, and he is a senior expert who can lead the trend in the industry.

No matter how smart, proud, and experienced Zhou Xingchi is, he has no confidence compared to the people in front of him. What's more, the several problems pointed out by others are all his own shortcomings.

Of course, Martin Scorsese will not interfere with the shooting of specific plots. He will only make some small suggestions on professional techniques and camera positions.
