Chapter 179 Who is the Chinese actor among the aliens?

After putting Michael Bella into the water, Lin Zilong began his busy work. MGM welcomed Lin Zilong's first income after moving into MGM with "Legend of Night 2" during the Christmas period. Although this is only a small part of Lin Zilong's debt, this part of the profitable funds and the recovered principal can give Lin Zilong greater shooting space in the new year.

With tens of millions of dollars, Lin Zilong can produce two less expensive productions in last year's shooting plan. There are many movies with tens of millions of dollars in large film production companies every year. Such movies are obviously the backbone of Hollywood. Just like Lin Zilong's "The Magical Love" filmed last year, the cost is only 32 million. Of course, if the pay of Lin Zilong and Avril is included, it may be higher. But it is obvious that Avril will not ask for this part of the pay. You must know that this girl spent tens of millions to win over Christina at the end of the year. All of this money was paid by Lin Zilong.

The actors of the movie gradually confirmed that Lin Zilong actually knew that the box office results did not reach the expected level for the movie "Alien Paul". He liked this movie very much. Paul actually created very well, not the mysterious impression, but the real sense of existence of twenty. Perhaps it is because it tells the story of two British people. The box office of this movie is not high in Europe except the United Kingdom, and in the United States, its box office is not very ideal.

However, Lin Zilong believes that this movie has value in shooting. Perhaps in this era, this movie can create a new height. No matter what, he has decided.

However, Lin Zilong, the two protagonists in the film, made a change. Perhaps because of Lin Zilong's personal reasons, MGM has thoroughly studied the Asian market. In the past two years, the Asian market has gradually shown its huge potential. China has begun to develop very quickly, which also creates a common problem, that is, the rapid urban development will definitely make people depressed, and the rapid and depressed urban life will always make people start to find new stimulation points.

Not everyone likes it just lingers in KTV, bars, nightclubs and other consumption places. More people start to turn their attention to the cinemas. They don’t need to spend huge consumption, but they can still have a happy weekend. Moreover, people born in the 1980s have gradually occupied big cities, and these people have accepted culture from foreign countries. They like movies from Hollywood very much. This will be a part of the huge market, without a doubt.

In addition, it has to be admitted that the consumer markets of Japan and South Korea may not be as large as China. However, their economic purchasing power has made these two countries a key film consumer.

In fact, it is not just MGM. Many Hollywood film companies have begun to formulate many policies, and they no longer only see the prosperity of Europe. In order to open up new markets, basically all Hollywood film companies have begun to target Asia.

As a time traveler, Lin Zilong knows how huge the future film consumption market in China will be, and Hollywood is the most concentrated place in the world. This has also caused many people to have Hollywood love, even many stars. Moreover, if a Chinese person appears in a Hollywood blockbuster, the movie will definitely receive a lot of attention. Not only China, but also Japan and South Korea.

It was precisely aimed at this point that Lin Zilong added the role of Asian in the new "Alien Paul". He abandoned the original two protagonists in the UK and chose an Asian and an American to star in it.

But this also created a reason. Lin Zilong began to wonder when choosing a role. In order to achieve certain highlights, Lin Zilong decided to choose a black man and an Asian partner. Opening up new highlights in racial discrimination will definitely attract the attention of critics. But as long as it promotes the positive side, the comments will definitely be very good. This is what Lin Zilong expects to see.

Blockbusters win box office, and small movies win comments. This is a policy formulated by Lin Zilong. However, it is impossible to abandon box office. Although it does not require a profit, at least it cannot lose money.

In this way, abandoning the script and the attractiveness of the movie itself is very important and choosing a role is very important. There are obviously many black people that Americans like, but Asians want actors to be accepted by Americans at the same time, which makes Lin Zilong very annoyed.

The first thing he thought of was Chow Yun-fat. Well, in fact, this was just because of Lin Zilong's personal reasons. Obviously, this is a comedy movie. Secondly, Lin Zilong thought of Jackie Chan. There was no way, at the peak moment, Jackie Chan's performance won the recognition of Americans. American humor, Jackie Chan also played very well. However, this is not a kung fu movie. Lin Zilong was not sure whether Jackie Chan's appearance in such a movie would cause another scene. After all, for Jackie Chan, Americans appear more in the image of Kung fu. As for Jet Li, well, the Kung fu Emperor played Kung fu beautifully, but he was indeed not suitable for this role.

Speaking of comedy, Lin Zilong certainly thought of a comedy king that has to be talked about, Brother Zhou Xingxing. However, Lin Zilong can only think about it himself. He is really not sure what impact will Zhou Xingxing’s abandonment of exaggerated nonsensical comedy styles have in China. But we cannot refuse to admit that perhaps in the last century, the box office appeal of Zhou Xingxing’s children’s shoes was slightly weaker in China than actors such as Jackie Chan. But Lin Zilong also knew that in the new century, the box office appeal of Zhou Xingxing’s children’s shoes in China did not need to be clearly stated.

No matter what, Lin Zilong began to circle four people, Jackie Chan, Chow Yun-fat, Jet Li and Stephen Chow.

Then first, Lin Zilong drew a fork on Jet Li's name. Even he himself didn't think Jet Li had an advantage in shooting such a movie. So he abandoned it first.

Then he drew a hook on the names of Jackie Chan, Chow Yun-fat and Stephen Chow.

With both hands on his chin, Lin Zilong stared at the three names for a long time, but was still a little hesitant. But after thinking about it, Lin Zilong suddenly picked up the phone on the table.

"Hey, please call James over for me."

"Okay, please wait, boss."

The secretary replied immediately. Then, without asking Lin Zilong to wait too long, James Pitt pushed open the door of the room and walked in.

"Hey, man, what's the trouble?" James sat down in front of Lin Zilong with ruthlessness. This guy was used to this, but it made Lin Zilong feel very comfortable.

After a smile, Lin Zilong handed the three pieces of information in his hand to James Pitt, which were Jackie Chan, Chow Yun-fat and Stephen Chow’s personal information. Of course, this was downloaded on their official website.

"What is this?" James Pitt was a little confused.

"My next movie needs to find a protagonist between them, so you have to help me inform them to come and audition," said Lin Zilong.

"Chinese?" James said with a daze. "You want to make a kung fu movie?"

"No, no, James, I hope to open up the Asian market, but it is not a kung fu movie, but a comedy movie. Comedy has no boundaries." Lin Zilong replied with a smile.

"Asians are serious guys, Blatt, are you sure it's a comedy?" James replied. In fact, there is no way. In the hearts of Americans, perhaps people from other countries will not joke.

"What I want is to open the market, James, notify them, you can refer to it yourself to determine the audition time. Of course, you know when I am free." Lin Zilong said and stood up. He picked up his clothes from the hanger.

"You're going out?" James Pitt also stood up and asked.

"Yeah." Lin Zilong nodded and said. "By the way, I received an invitation from Grammys. I will attend the Grammys in two weeks, so you have to arrange their auditions in these two weeks."

"But you want to go out now?" James continued. The Grammy was going to take two weeks, but he was asking now.

"Yes, is there anything wrong?" Lin Zilong asked.

"I have several documents that require your signature," James Pitt said.

"Let's talk about it when I come back. Cameron is now in the sand debriser. I'm going to meet him. You know, he will have to spend several hundred million to me, so I have to keep a little closer." Lin Zilong tidied up his tie and put on his coat. He said.

"Okay, I will confirm the audition time later. I will tell you after I'm notifying them." James said, and after that, he walked out.

Lin Zilong also walked out.

"Avatar" has begun its preliminary shooting. Because of Lin Zilong, the shooting time of this epic masterpiece has been a little earlier. Although the shooting cycle of this film is still very long, Lin Zilong knows that if he can get in touch with the shooting methods of this film, it will be of great benefit to him.

So when Lin Zilong learned that James Cameron was in Los Angeles, he immediately went to find him because he wanted to see James Cameron's shooting plan and preparations for the shooting.

The temptation of the "3D" movie is huge. Lin Zilong expects that when "Avatar" is completed, he will also produce his first "3D". Being able to watch Cameron's shooting plan and some detailed plans is something that Lin Zilong can't find.

The car drove to James Cameron's house soon, and Lin Zilong slowly rang the doorbell.
