After staying on the set for a long time, Chen Fei gradually discovered that film shooting in Hollywood is fundamentally different from that in China.
The "producer-centered system" is strictly implemented here, rather than the "star-centered system" that is popular in China.
The producer-centered system refers to the ultimate goal of concentrating the core control rights of a film in the hands of the producer, and maximizing the commercial value of the film through rigorous research and scientific production processes.
The star-centered system refers to concentrating the core control of the film in the hands of the star. The entire film production and marketing are centered around the star, trying to maximize commercial value through the star halo and fan effect.
Generally speaking, the "producer-centered system" is dating for the purpose of marriage (box office).
The "star-centered system" is not a hooliganism for the purpose of marriage. The goal is for the star to obtain the maximum benefit and is not responsible for the box office...
The most intuitive example at present is Hong Kong Island.
Most of the people currently active on the screen are "veteran actors", and there are not many new generation actors who can take the lead.
Although people like Liu Dehua, Liang Chaowei, and Zha Zhahui are still at their peak, they will eventually grow old one day.
Who will pick up their shift then?
In the long run, the Hong Kong circle will inevitably form an embarrassing situation of indigestion.
Perhaps the Hong Kong Film Awards, which are "exclusively dedicated" to Hong Kong Island, will also fail to recover.
Of course, these have nothing to do with Chen Fei at the moment. He just looked at the filming scene of "Spider-Man 2" and felt a little bit in his heart.
…
At seven o'clock sharp, the crew was ready to call it a day without any delay.
Chen Fei blushed a little when he saw this scene.
When he was filming "Buried Alive", in order to recover the cost for the film as soon as possible, he often asked the crew to work overtime.
Thinking about it now, I guess many people were already scolding him in private at that time.
"Come on, FeiChen, we have specially prepared a welcome party for you. We must be happy tonight."
Party?
Listening to Sam's standard London accent, Chen Fei was stunned for a moment, and then quickly came to his senses.
This "welcome party" probably has the same meaning as the "welcoming party".
In the huge back garden, swimming pool, cakes, beer, barbecue, stereo... the existence of these things combined to form a standard welcome party.
There are not many customs here. Everyone sits together and there is no distinction between the host and guest seats.
Toby, who plays Peter Parker, is sitting on the left side of Chen Fei, chewing on a stick of roasted corn. He is a vegetarian, so he has no interest in the barbecue on the table.
On the contrary, Sam, who was sitting on his right hand, had his mouth full of oil and drank beer one glass after another.
While eating, he kept saying: "Fei, this villa is my residence. You can rest here tonight and we will go to the set tomorrow."
"ok!"
Chen Fei nodded and calmly distanced himself from him to prevent the spittle from his mouth from splashing into his mouth.
Perhaps because she drank too much, Kirsten, who played the heroine Mary Jane, waved her hands in an exaggerated manner and exclaimed:
"I saw the video of you climbing to the top of the Berlin TV Tower on the Internet. It was so cool. So, like Jackie Chen, do you know Chinese Kung Fu?"
As soon as they heard the words "Chinese Kung Fu", everyone who was still eating and drinking suddenly brightened up and turned their gazes in unison.
In the eyes of foreigners, people who know Chinese Kung Fu are cooler than Will Smith holding an AK47, and they are less likely to offend.
Because they can usually easily knock down people who are stronger and stronger than themselves, which is very awesome!
Seeing the bright eyes of a group of people, Chen Fei was not modest at all, and nodded calmly admitting the fact that he knew "Kung Fu".
For a time, the party scene was filled with exclamations!
Sam even asked excitedly: "Fei, can you perform for us? I like Chinese Kung Fu very much, and I am Jackie Chen's most loyal fan!"
Speaking of the deep connection between Chinese Kung Fu and Hollywood, we have to mention Yuan Baye, who is known as "the best martial arts finger in the world".
"The Matrix" not only set off the "kung fu trend" around the world, but also made Yuan Baye a hot celebrity in Hollywood.
It is precisely because of him that Cheng Long, Li Lianlian and others were able to gain a foothold in Hollywood and gradually became what foreigners call "kung fu superstars."
Faced with Sam's request, Chen Fei did not choose to refuse.
He had already decided to show off his skills before coming to New York. At least he had to shock these foreigners before he could carry out his bold plan!
"Can I borrow the long knife in your living room?" Chen Fei asked.
Now that he has decided to look cool, he will make all these people look cool until they are cool!
"Oh, my friend, of course, it's my pleasure." Sam said while calling others to get the knife.
After a while, a long knife similar to the style of "Zhanma Dao" was taken out.
Standing up and taking the handle of the knife, Chen Fei weighed it gently and nodded with satisfaction.
"Good knife!"
"Haha, this is a collection I spent a lot of money to acquire. It has been sharpened, so be careful!"
"rest assured."
After responding, he came to the edge of the swimming pool and motioned for everyone to retreat.
The moment the venue was cleared, he quickly raised his arm, jerked his wrist with his belt, and the sword in his hand immediately erupted with a trembling sound!
"Swish, swish, swish!"
In an instant, the sharp knife shadow wrapped around him like lightning, and the silver light was like splashing ink in the night.
Chopping, chopping, slicing, chopping, picking...
Chen Fei used all kinds of moves in his hands, leaving a group of foreigners stunned with shock on their faces!
For a while, the scene was filled with exclamations such as "oh, good, fuck, shift" and the like.
The foreigners who were farther away might not be able to hear it, but Sam, Toby, and Kirsten could clearly hear the cutting sound caused by the blade cutting through the void.
"Tsk! Tsk! Tsk!"
The continuous shadow of the knife shone in the night sky, and the silver light that appeared from time to time and the handsome turning movements made this group of foreigners mesmerized, and they all froze in place.
After a while, he felt that the effect he wanted had been achieved, and Chen Fei immediately knew that the performance should be over.
The wrist flicked violently again, and as a dazzling knife flower suddenly appeared, the handle of the knife immediately came out of the hand, driving the blade to rotate rapidly in mid-air.
The next second, under everyone's shocked gaze, they saw Chen Fei quickly turning to the left, raising his left foot and kicking back violently.
"boom!"
A muffled sound spread in all directions, and this kick hit the handle of the long knife very accurately.
Suddenly, under the action of this kick, the long knife that was about to lose its kinetic energy began to spin rapidly in mid-air like a windmill that had been hit by strong winds.
The shadow of the knife is chaochuo! Astonishingly sharp!
However, just when all the foreigners thought that this was the final scene, they saw Chen Fei quickly stretching out his hands and thrusting straight into the sharp knife shadow.
"Oh! No!"
Many people exclaimed and their eyes widened!
This knife was edged, and they were very afraid of seeing the cruel scene of the blade cutting off their fingers!
But the next second, Chen Fei raised his hands high, and the handle of the knife was already tightly held in his hands.
"laugh!"
The long knife fell, a loud roar filled the air, and the performance officially ended!
"Oh, buy it! Chinese Kung Fu! This is Chinese Kung Fu!"
"I recorded it! I recorded it all! I want to share it with my friends! I finally met someone who knows Chinese Kung Fu!"
"That's cool! Fei, you are my idol!"
“This party tonight is the coolest party I’ve ever been to!”
"Fei, from now on you will be the object of my worship!"
"..."
A group of foreigners kept shouting and shouting, looking at Fade Chen with fanatical eyes!
