The difference lies in the choice of the heroine.

According to Li Yu's idea, since the filming was not in the cold country this time, it was moved to the beautiful country.

The movie is also going to be released here, so when casting actors, try to use foreigners.

Among the protagonists, it is enough to have Li Yu with an oriental face.

The reason is to use a group of foreigners to highlight him.

Techev has no objection to this.

After all, the script belongs to Li Yu, and he also invested part of the money, so he is a veritable boss.

But when it came to the choice of the heroine, Techev insisted on using a woman with an oriental face to play the role.

As for Li Yu, she has chosen a white actress.

On this issue, Techev strongly opposed it.

Li Yu asked him why.

Techev explained: "The thing is, a white girl can never fall in love with an East Asian. This basically doesn't happen in reality or in other movies."

Although Techev's words were absolute and Li Yu had ten thousand reasons to refute them, Li Yu did not do that.

Li Yu asked: "Is this an unwritten rule?"

Joseph said: "Yes, unspoken rules."

No one would be happy with such a statement.

Li Yu knew that in the beautiful country, discrimination against East Asians was widespread. He had seen it when he came here, but he did not expect that it would penetrate so deeply that he would not even watch the movie.

When it comes to spreading American values ​​​​through film and television works, brainwashing people all over the world can be said to be a common tactic of the beautiful country.

Li Yu recalled the movies he had watched before. In some movies, great white male heroes often appeared in backward China to help the people defeat evil and become the savior. Then, East Asian girls fell in love with white men, or fell in love with white men.

Lingering.

Or, East Asian women will always fall in love with white men unconditionally and wholeheartedly. Even if they are abandoned or even give their lives, it will not be the white man's problem.

Examples like this are not too common in movies about beautiful countries in previous lives.

In the movie "Dead by the Sea" released in 1923, a girl rescued a white man who fell into the water, fell in love with him immediately, and gave birth to a child for him. However, after the white man returned to the beautiful country, he was never heard from again.

.

Something similar is "Madama Butterfly" released in 1932, but the heroine is not a Chinese woman, but a little girl. She is also hopelessly in love with the other person, she is waiting for her, she is abandoned, she commits suicide... This kind of...

Dominance relationships are played out again and again in various movies in Beautiful Country.

More recently, "Sakura Love", "Spring Full of Fusang", "Kyoto Beauty"... In these movies, in the name of love, white men are treated like emperors, and young women are crazy about white men.

In China, there is "Shanghai Surprise", in Hanguo there is "Battlefield", in Yuenan there is "Green Berets", "Rambo 2"...

In addition, there is also the blackening of the former Soviet Union and the smearing of Chinese people.

This stems from the arrogance of the beautiful country, which thinks that the beautiful country represents advancement and freedom, while China is backward and mysterious. They even use their own understanding of Chinese culture to define us as a yellow peril.

The Fu Manchu movie series is the most typical example. In addition to movies, there are also Squinting Eyes...

Even if there are positive images of East Asian men, they will deliberately suppress or erase their masculinity. They will never attract white women, and there will never be white women. If you fall in love with East Asian men, you will be deprived of all emotions and desires.

In the face of all these evidences, some people are trying to whitewash the beautiful country, saying that it is a universal value and that art has no national boundaries.

This shows the greatness of Bruce Lee.

…

Of course Li Yu couldn't accept this setting.

Li Yu asked: "Then, according to what you want, it will be fine if the heroine is an East Asian woman, right?"

Knowing that Li Yu was still not convinced, Techev changed his attitude.

Techev said: "If you don't believe me, you can film it and give it a try... But in this case, I may not be able to convince investors. After all, no one would invest even though they know they are going to lose money.

So maybe all the investment in this movie will have to be made by you alone."

The cost of this movie will not be too high, and Li Yu can't afford it by himself.

But in this case, the risk would be too great.

Uncertainty factors have greatly increased. Without investors from Beautiful Country, there will definitely be constraints along the way from filming to release.

Li Yu didn't necessarily want to attract beautiful Chinese people to make money together, but for the sake of convenience, he had to attract some foreigners.

However, it is not necessary to involve Tchev and Joseph.

They are just working for Li Yu. Why does one of them talk so much while working?

Li Yu stared into the other person's eyes and asked: "Is this your intention or the investor's intention?"

Techev was dumbfounded for a moment, and suddenly realized that this East Asian was not that easy to fool.

However, Techev's mind was quick and he had his own way of saying things.

Techev immediately explained: "I didn't mean it as an investor, but what I said is true. I'm just warning you in advance. It doesn't matter if you don't believe me. Anyway, I'm only responsible for arranging the movies."

Actually, I don’t necessarily have to remind you.”

Li Yu snorted coldly and said, "Really? I forgot to tell you that I don't have to use you, do you understand?"

Li Yu pointed at the camera and said: "I can also be a director. If it weren't for Charlie's sake, I would have fired you. Who is the boss and who is the employee? You'd better position yourself correctly."

Li Yu is very strong, which makes Lu Zhiqiang, Hei Bai Wuchang and others feel very happy and feel proud.

What they were thinking was: "Mr. Li really doesn't like ghost guys..."

Techev finally shut up, he didn't want to leave.

Mainly because Li Yu's script was too attractive to him.

Tchev has never made a racing movie, and it is a subject he has always wanted to try, but he has never been able to wait for a good script.

Joseph said: "If this is the case, then Mr. Li, I think you have to go and negotiate with the investors in person. How the movie is shot must be decided by the person who pays."

Joseph found a car company to sponsor him. If Li Yu insisted on his idea, Joseph believed that the car company would definitely withdraw the sponsorship.

Li Yuze said: "If the car company doesn't agree, I will change the car company. If you don't agree, I will change you. I have many solutions."

Seeing that Li Yu still refused to let go, Techev and Joseph were very helpless, but they didn't have the temper to leave directly. Li Yu had given too much and they were reluctant to leave.

Techev could only say: "Our movies have always been shot this way. We can respect Mr. Li's ideas, but we also want to make the movie better and earn more box office. In this matter, Joseph also

Not to be angry, you really might want to discuss it with the car company. The movie will be more interesting if it is sponsored by a luxury car. Of course, it is no problem if it is not sponsored. After all, we are shooting a movie, not a car advertisement. But in that case

As a result, Mr. Li's burden will be very heavy."

Li Yu was just trying to scare the two of them. It would only be a waste of time to replace them and find someone else again.

Some concepts are deeply ingrained.

It's not just a few words that can make the other party make changes and concessions.

What Li Yu wants to do is to use the box office to silence everyone.
