Chow Yun-fat's superstar and famous international superstar in the Chinese-speaking world have great influence in the Chinese-speaking world, confirming the golden age of Hong Kong in the 1980s, and has created many popular classic characters: Xu Wenqiang, Xiao Ma Ge, and the God of Gambling. His superb acting skills make him famous as the "God of Acting" in Hong Kong. He is a film superstar in Greater China and has a great influence in the global Chinese society.

However, after he came to Hollywood in 1995, his development did not go very smoothly. The reason is that if a Chinese actor in Hollywood, he would not be an action star like Jackie Chan or Jet Li, his development would be greatly restricted, and there were very few scenes to shoot. In addition, the language and culture are different, don’t say that he interprets the inner world of the character, even the dialogue makes people not so smooth. This is impossible, just like, can you imagine a blonde and blue-eyed foreigner playing the emperor and minister in domestic historical dramas?

Think about it from the perspective of others, the truth is the same, this is not a matter of discrimination, this is the current situation. Although Chow Yun-fat is very popular in Chinese-speaking areas, he cannot be compared in Hollywood, especially now, he has not filmed "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon", and Americans basically don't know him.

As Fa Ge said in history, he wanted to knock on the doors of agency and film companies one by one, and then say, "Hello, I am Chow Yun-fat, is there any drama for me to act?"

However, by the way, after all, Fa Ge is very influential in the Chinese film industry. In order to open up the Chinese market, some film companies will also arrange for him to play some major roles. However, these roles cannot display his acting skills.

Ike actually wanted to be a good boy idol, but he does not have a decent script at the moment. As for the same sentence, Hollywood scripts are all prepared for Westerners.

The Hollywood circle is not big. Jeremy soon found Fa Ge in Los Angeles through the agency. He explained his purpose to Fa Ge. Fa Ge happily agreed to Ike's request and could meet immediately.

Under Jeremy's leadership, Chow Yun-fat came to the office of Ike, 3D Film Company.

For Chow Yun-fat, he has heard of the name of director Ike, but he has not had the chance to meet. Who doesn’t know the first Chinese to win the Oscar for Best Director?

"Hello Zhou." As soon as Ike saw Chow Yun-fat, he warmly greeted him and shook hands. Oh no, he still had no change from his childhood memories. He is indeed one of the rare handsome oriental guys.

"Hello, Director Lee," Chow Yun-fat said in less fluent English.

"Jeremy, you can go out first and let Kalyn pour two cups of coffee. Oh, please sit down, Zhou." Ike waved his hand and asked Brother Chow to sit down. Chow Yun-fat was about the same height as he was tall and tall oriental.

"Okay, boss." Jeremy said, leaving Ike's office with a smile. After a while, Kalyn brought the coffee in.

Ike saw Brother Fa holding the coffee and blew hard, and smiled. He said in standard Chinese, "It's not a habit to drink coffee in hot weather."

Chow Yun-fat was stunned when he heard Ike's fluent Mandarin. He looked at Ike with a startled look and said in Mandarin for a long time, "Wow, you didn't expect that your Chinese is so fluent. It's much better than mine."
