Chapter 474 [Caused a heated discussion, impacting Oscar? 】

Liang Kun's exclusive interview was soon aired in China, and the program received high ratings and attention. He successfully completed the orange mission of the special female reporter.

The mission reward is lifespan +1. Recently, he has received a lot of such rewards, totaling 45 years. The orange mission has not drawn out a skill for a long time. He suspected that it was because he knew too many skills.

Liang Kun’s remarks online have mixed opinions. Most people support him in Hollywood, shoot more good movies, and strive to become a world-famous director as soon as possible. Some people also say that he admires foreign countries and gives good scripts to Hollywood, helping Americans make money.

In fact, the script written by Liang Kun can only be popular in Hollywood, and the box office in China is not that high.

As early as 1999, Zhang Guoli directed a movie called "Good Boy", which was about the time loop. The starring Wu Qilong and Xu Ruoxuan, and there was no box office at all.

The movie must meet the taste of the audience before it can be popular. In parallel world, "Happy Death Day" was released in China in February 2018, with a box office of less than 100 million yuan.

Like Black Lively's "Shake Beach", the box office in the United States is very high, and it will definitely be swept when it is put in China. There are not so many people in China who like sharks, and there are even fewer surfing people. Where can I feel the sense of inclusion? The sharks in China dare to swim to the beach? They turn into shark fins in minutes.

Liang Kun wrote Hollywood scripts suitable for European and American audiences. If you want to succeed, you can only shoot and release them in Hollywood. Of course, there are also some scripts that can be filmed in China, but then the movie cannot get the high box office of the original version, and the Chinese film market has not yet developed.

Hollywood has remakes some Chinese scripts, "Infernal Affairs", "Hell", etc. They will ask European and American actors to remake them and change them to settings that meet the American background. The original version will be released directly without box office.

Media from many Asian countries have reported on Liang Kun's story. China, Japan and South Korea are also preparing to introduce "Happy Death Day". I believe that with Liang Kun's box office appeal, he will achieve good results in his country.

The box office of "Happy Death Day" in the third week dropped significantly, with only US$16 million, totaling 76 million. It is impossible to have a box office of over 100 million in North America, but there is no suspense about the global box office of over 100 million. The total foreign box office is generally not lower than that of North America.

Liang Kun participated in two interview shows in Los Angeles and Black Lively, talking about interesting stories about the filming and the movie.

Liang Kun participated in a show alone, not only talking about movies, but also talked about his own affairs. Many Americans became interested in him. Liang Kun performed several shows on the spot, playing guitar and singing "Viva La Vida", kicking bottle caps on the spot, etc.

He also appeared on the cover of three magazines. One of them was filmed with the great director Ang Lee, and the two represented the Chinese power in Hollywood.

The two chatted casually. Liang Kun knew that Ang Lee would soon reach the peak of his life. He won the Oscar for Best Director this year with "Brokeback Mountain". He felt at ease with such a person.

However, Liang Kun did not have the idea of ​​cooperating with Ang Lee to film.

The content of the films that Ang Lee films are relatively literary, and even the films of "The Hulk" can be filmed. Liang Kun really can't think of any roles in Ang Lee's movies that are suitable for him. There are not many movies that require Chinese starring. He can't act "Lust and Caution"?

He felt that "Lust and Caution" was a low-quality third-level film, and there was no highlight in the plot or performance, even the actor's figure. In the original movie, Mr. Yi's small body was enough to kill him? After the heroine got along with him, she could stab him with a dagger at any time, but the heroine in the whole film was only responsible for being fucked...

Ang Lee also praised Liang Kun. He was born in 1954 and was older than Liang Kun's parents. He had no grades at Liang Kun's age and was almost 40 years old when he became famous.

Liang Kun became a famous Chinese director in his film, and his popularity was not inferior to several domestic famous directors. Many people discussed him every day on the Chinese Internet, and the media began to report his news continuously.

After reading the news, Tang Qi was both happy for Liang Kun and a little helpless.

This month, the TV series "Struggle" was broadcast, and she has become a household name in China. The gap between her and Liang Kun in career has not only not narrowed, but has become even further.

Unless Tang Qi goes to Hollywood to film, she cannot be with Liang Kun for a long time. She is self-aware and has no ability to go to Hollywood at all. Liang Kun’s script does not have a role suitable for her. If she wants to go, she has to prove herself in the domestic film industry first.

Currently, Tang Li and Liu Yifei are the most popular actresses born in the 1980s in China, and they are both acting in TV series. Among the "Four Flowers", only Zhang Ziyi's movies have box offices, and Tang Li still has a long way to go.

Ayumi Hamasaki sang the ending song in "Happy Death Day", which made Tang Qi a little unhappy. Ayumi Hamasaki could keep up with Liang Kun's pace than her. She felt that she was a little useless and had no ability to cooperate with Liang Kun, and she also relied on Liang Kun to become famous.

Liang Kun doesn't care about these things. His purpose of finding a girlfriend is not to find help. Ordinary people can't help him. Only bigwigs like Spielberg and David Geffen can help him.

In the eyes of many people in China, Liang Kun is already a big shot. In the music scene, whoever he writes songs for, who is popular, Chen Yixun is likely to become the most popular male singer this year and has received multiple nominations.

At the end of January, Liang Kun made big news again, and his "The Lost Love" became the best-seller of the month. It was on the New York Times best-selling rankings and sparked heated discussions in New York.

Many people have bought this book and recommend it to people they know after reading it. Some people on the Internet wrote book reviews, thinking that this book is too scary. This is a thing written by unmarried people.

Many married women say that this book is terrifying to think about it carefully, and they are really afraid of this kind of marriage life with masks.

"Although it's not that marriage must be as happy as fairy tales, marriage is not like this, right?! Deceive, wear a false mask. Although my life is dull, I will occasionally create a little surprise for myself and grow old with my husband. As for cheating, I think if I don't love it, I will divorce. As for this?"

"After reading it, my thoughts were, fuck, how could there be such a ghost? Is the person who wrote this book normal? Then I checked the Internet and found that it was written by the director of "Happy Death Day". I instantly felt normal because the director's way of thinking is obviously different from that of ordinary people."

"It's very scary and wonderful. My lover is gone, and it's all over the world. My lover is back, and it's abyss. This is a story that can't guess what plot will happen next from beginning to end. The narrative perspective changes, and the truth and lies are intertwined. The author is not only a genius director in China, but also a genius writer."

"The few works written by Liang Kun in China are all bestsellers or series on the theme of tomb robbery adventure. It would be great if there was an English version. Can anyone translate it and publish it?"

On the 30th, Spielberg called Liang Kun to his mansion as a guest.

This time, Spieburg's wife Kate Capshaw wanted to talk to Liang Kun about related matters. When it was first published, Liang Kun gave Spieburg a gift, and Kate liked it very much.

Kate said: "When I first saw you, I was so angry that I was so angry that I was this bastard man in the book. As a result, I suddenly changed my mind halfway through the scene. You explained that the heroine's words in the previous one were all made up by her, and everything was her plan. And I started to plan all this carefully more than a year ago, and I got goosebumps. How did you come up with this kind of story?"

"It's the result of random thoughts, and my mind is a little confused. I wrote tomb robbers in China, and I also wrote a book about vengeance, which has many reversal plots." Liang Kun explained: "I originally wanted to write this subject into a TV script. After coming to the United States, I found it could be published, so I changed it to what I am now."

Kate asked: "What story did you think of?"

Liang Kun came out and told the story.

"The original idea was to talk about a couple in the wealthy area of ​​Yanjing. The wife was considerate and her husband failed in career because she was not as disgusted as her wife. The male protagonist used his wife's money to open a coffee shop and fell in love with the female employee of the coffee shop. The latter encouraged him to kill his wife. Just as the plan was about to be implemented, his wife was suspected to be kidnapped. The other party asked for a ransom of 20 million, otherwise the heroine would be killed. The male protagonist was very happy, but all the evidence pointed out that he killed his wife..."

He is talking about the Japanese drama "My Horror Wife", which can be filmed in China. The original screenwriter was Miyako Kuroi, a Japanese drama released in 2016. The plot is obviously adapted from "The Lost Lover". He won the Best TV Drama Screenwriter Award at the 3rd Asian Rainbow Awards.

Liang Kun briefly talked about the plot, which was more complicated than "The Lost Lover". In the end, his wife cheated on insurance.

Spieburg smiled and said, "Your story is also very exciting, but I think your movie is better now, and it may be a good Oscar for making a movie. Do you want to play the male lead by yourself, right? So it is written that the male lead Nick is younger than the female lead Amy."

"Yes, if I can, I want to direct and act on this movie myself." Liang Kun nodded. "But I have only made one movie and I still have to practice it. I don't have the confidence to do it for the time being."

Spieburg suggested: "If you have a director you appreciate, you can sell the adaptation rights to DreamWorks. Ask that director to shoot, I will be the producer for you."

Spieburg said while observing Liang Kun. If an ordinary young man heard this, he would be crazy about being happy. Liang Kun was still calm. Even if Spieburg liked this movie, he thought that the adapted movie would definitely become famous.

"I admire too many directors, but I don't want to find someone to direct them. I also want to learn from the strengths of each school and write, direct and act in this movie." Liang Kun smiled and said, "I want to continue shooting thriller movies in the next drama. The script has been written, and the movie budget is still not high."

"Oh? Let's hear?" Spipberg was attracted by interest.

Liang Kun was eating and started talking about "Escape Room" again...
