"So, my idea is very simple. Since there is no way to participate in commercial films that are popular with big-money productions, we can consider films with small productions but high artistic value."

"You mean, let's go straight to Oscars?" Kim Yu-fan asked in confusion when he heard James Steve's proposal.

James Steve nodded seriously: "Yes, that's what I mean."

Seeing the doubts in Kim Yu-fan's eyes, James Steve explained with a smile: "Yes, I also know that literary and artistic movies like this that go directly to the trophy will basically not be too much attention, but because they are not very popular, the pressure is relatively less. Secondly, considering that if you win the trophy, this is definitely an unexpected surprise. At least you can tell your Hollywood colleagues that you have this strength."

"The worst thing is that you can prove your acting skills by relying on your wonderful performances in the movie. Although Hollywood has many problems, it is undeniable that Hollywood producers and directors have absolutely no problems when watching an actor seem to have acting skills and acting skills, especially the directors."

Kim Yu-fan nodded, saying that he understood this truth, and the producer was a little weaker. After all, the producer is more responsible for the film. Whether it is to help the film and crew members public relations with Oscars, or to make a big profit in the movie and ensure that the box office can be made, the producers are definitely top-notch in this regard. However, when looking at the actors or the acting skills of the actors, the producers do not lack this vision. But in general, the producers cannot compare with the directors when looking at the acting skills of the actors. After all, the professions and fields of the two are different, and they naturally care and consider differently.

On the contrary, Hollywood directors attach great importance to the acting skills of actors and have very high requirements because of the position of director. At least, as a director, the most basic ability is to understand the acting skills of an actor and the quality of the script, and whether they can control the script by themselves.

"As long as your acting skills are recognized, especially the directors, it will be very beneficial to your future development in Hollywood. You should know that Hollywood directors have their own circles. When talking about new scripts, they will talk to each other briefly and be troubled by suitable actors."

"At this time, if there is an actor who is suitable and has a good acting skills and the director has an impression, he will recommend it to other directors. This is not about how related to you, but the directors have their own persistence and do not consider too many other factors. First of all, we must consider the actors. Considering the roles suitable for the movie is at least much better than not finding a suitable actor without a clue."

"After the directors talk to each other and get some suitable list, the director will take into account other factors to decide who to invite to participate in his movie and play a role in the crew."

Speaking of this, James Steve also reminded Kim Yu-fan very seriously: "Kim, you can consider movies that better reflect your acting skills. You don't need to care about the cost, nor do you need to care about the popularity and fame of the director and producer. You only need to be suitable for the script, and even the script doesn't matter. As long as this role is suitable for you and you can fully demonstrate your acting skills."

"Believe me, as long as your acting skills can impress a director and impress this director, even if you have no relationship or friendship in the future, if other directors need actors like you, this director will definitely actively recommend you. No, it is because the first thing the director has to do is to find a suitable actor. Any director is worried that the opportunity will come, but he cannot find a suitable actor, which will make him feel very troubled and helpless. So this has gradually formed a rule in the director's industry. If there are suitable actors, everyone will recommend it to other directors who happen to need this actor, not caring about their own interests, or it is a source of information and an exchange of interests."

It seems that he knows what Kim Yu-fan wants to say, James Steve smiled and said, "Of course, when directors can't find a suitable actor, they can barely choose other actors to play the role, but in this way, the role may not be guaranteed. You should know that Hollywood is a fame and fortune, but in fact, it is not famous, but more importantly, profit. However, when a director cannot bring enough benefits to a film company or an investor, the director will be given up and has a bad reputation. No one will continue to invest at that time, so the director will be completely finished."

"So, directors attach great importance to their own movies, especially roles and details. If there is no suitable actor, they would rather not shoot them and wait for the suitable actors. This is why some directors can even postpone the time they have to wait for the actors to have a schedule. "

"After all, the director also strives to make the best movie for himself, and also ensures that the movie can be more exciting and outstanding. Even an actor who is not very suitable for the role, such issues must be considered, and do his best to achieve perfection, so as to ensure that his movie can be successful, and that he can gain both fame and fortune, and will not fail and then be given up. No one is willing to invest in his new movie."

"After all, the current Hollywood directors, those who really don't care about the failure of a few movies, are Lucas, Cameron and other big directors. To be honest, if such big directors want these big directors to fail in shooting several movies in a row, the possibility is really very small."

Kim Yu-fan nodded, which is also a fact. In fact, the top major directors' fame and influence, or the box office stimulation and guarantee of the movie, are no worse than any international superstars.

As for other directors, they are probably the same as actors. If they fail a few movies, their reputation will be ugly in Hollywood. At that time, film companies and investors will avoid it and will not and will not continue to invest in the director's new movie. This also means that this director will basically be difficult for him to survive. He can only do some behind the scenes of the crew, and then quietly wait for the opportunity, waiting for someone to believe in himself and give him a second chance to direct.

Of course, a director is much better than an actor. The director can lose at least a few movies. If an actor loses money at most three movies, he will probably be given up by the director and the film company.

The most typical one is undoubtedly Nicholas Cage. No one can say that he has no acting skills. On the contrary, his acting skills are very awesome. However, the original top star was completely abandoned because of losing several movies, and even broke for a while. In the end, the captain Johnny Depp, who was helped by Nicholas Cage, stood up and was willing to guarantee Nicholas Cage, and finally saved his face. But even so, Nicholas Cage has changed from a top actor to a second- and third-rate actor. Although he has acting skills, his fame is not there. At least in the eyes of film companies and directors, his status and pay naturally plummeted.

Well, although this has something to do with Nicholas Cage's style, because Nicholas Cage seems to be more suitable for playing the role of tragic little characters, and is not suitable for playing big productions and making blockbusters. But Nicholas Cage's experience also tells the outside world one thing, that is, Hollywood is a vintage fair, especially a place that values ​​interests.

If you can't make money for others, it's natural for others to give up on you. In the United States, a country that benefits itself, I won't tell you any favors. Nicholas Cage is the Oscar winner and an American. Even so, if you lose, you will give up and be given up, let alone others.

The same is true for directors. Unless you grow into a big director of Lucas, if you fail to shoot one or two works, commercial movies will not have box office, and literary movies will not have a reputation, then it will be over.

Therefore, directors attach great importance to their own movies. When selecting actors, they also try their best to choose the most suitable ones. If they don’t have the right ones, they would rather give up on filming for the time being, and would rather wait for an actor, or even give up the script, and they should also preserve their reputation.

Therefore, when directors know, or understand the acting skills and scenery of an actor, they will have a certain understanding of what type of role the actor is suitable for. When other directors need it, they will help recommend it. It is not that they have to have anything to do with the actor, but that it is just for the other party to find a suitable actor. Then when they cannot find a suitable actor in the future, other directors who know it will also recommend it to themselves, so that they can find a suitable actor and make their crew more perfect as much as possible.

Looking at the silent Kim Yu-fan, James Steve thought for a while and continued, "Of course, no matter how good your acting performance is, it is very unlikely that you can win a trophy at the Oscars. Although I have connections and relationships, I am just fighting alone. Compared with those film companies, my public relations skills are naturally poor. In my opinion, if Kim is willing and has a good attitude, then as long as I get nominated at the Oscars ceremony, it will be considered a great success and a huge victory."

Kim Yu-fan nodded, but said nothing. Although what James Steve said made sense, to be honest, Kim Yu-fan really doesn't plan to take this path.

In Kim Yu-fan's opinion, this path is not bad, it is just not suitable for him. This is not his pride, but if he makes himself work hard like this, Kim Yu-fan is really unwilling to waste that time.

Instead of changing to another like this, it is still unknown, and there may not be a chance of success. Kim Yu-fan would rather choose to leave the United States and return to Asia to continue to be his Asian king. Wouldn't that be better?

Although it has not been successful in the United States, it doesn't matter. Asian actors have not been successful in Hollywood. At least they can proudly say that they have succeeded in Hollywood and in the United States with the great success of the "Twilight" movie series.

The reason why I left the United States and Hollywood was that I was not very adaptable and was not used to living in the United States was definitely a perfect reason.

What a joke, I can enjoy my Asian king in Asia and enjoy unlimited scenery. And when I don’t have to spend money, why do I still have to go to Hollywood to be a small role, a grandson to look at people’s eyes, and wait for others to give me a chance? I am not a masochist, so why do I have to hold on to Hollywood to make myself angry?

It seemed that he had noticed Kim Yu-fan's thoughts. James Steve sighed and knew in his heart that it would be difficult for Kim Yu-fan to choose this path for a proud person like Kim Yu-fan.

Since that's the case, then Kim Yu-hwan only has one path to go. If you don't choose this path, then Kim Yu-hwan will not be waiting for new opportunities every year to see if there are any suitable scripts, or just go to the music industry to develop.

"OK, I understand." Before Kim Yu-fan could say anything, James Steve nodded and said, "Since that's the case, there is only one choice left now, that is, to find friends in your small circle and let them see if there are any new opportunities."

"Our own small circle?" Kim Yu-fan murmured subconsciously, as if he had not understood what James Steve meant.

"That's right, it's your small circle. Of course, I mean your small circle in Hollywood. Brad Pitt, Dwayne Johnson and others. King, you never have to doubt the connections and energy of a top Hollywood superstar. Especially although these guys can't get any trophy, they are indeed a box office guarantee, and they are definitely big names who focus on commercial movies."

"I also said before that Hollywood is a country where interests are paramount. As long as you can bring enough benefits, you are the master and you are God. And just so happens that your friends in this small circle are all people who can toss the box office, and have also been recognized by Hollywood producers and directors, and have also been recognized by Hollywood film companies."

"To put it bluntly, that is, friends in your circle can make money and make a lot of money. This alone is enough to make your friends the God in the hearts of film companies, producers and directors. Since it is God, then God's words are often very effective and effective."

Speaking of this, James Steve sighed: "Don't think it's a shame to ask friends for opportunities. I can't understand what you Asians think about this, but I can only say that there is no so-called face in the United States. At least in terms of your own interests, all face is false, and your own real interests are real. And in circles like you, it's normal for you to ask me and I help you. This is actually a good way for you to deepen your cooperation and friendship."

"After all, you are all celebrities and have their own jobs in your daily life, so it is difficult to get together. This kind of communication with the nature of work will undoubtedly become a good way for you to communicate, and will also make your friendship deeper and deeper."

Kim Yu-fan nodded: "Well, I understand. I won't be unable to speak because of some face. As James said, this is my connection and my resource. I won't be stupid enough to avoid making this call for the sake of the face I have done."

After hearing Kim Yu-fan's words, James Steve breathed a sigh of relief, nodded without saying anything.

To be honest, James Steve is really worried that Kim Yu-fan would not make this call for the sake of his face. Because James Steve began to understand the Eastern culture and the situation in South Korea because of Kim Yu-fan, and then he knew how much Korean personnel value face.

Because of this, James Steve mentioned Kim Yu-fan in this small circle in Hollywood at the end, and he also made a lot of preparations before, saying that this is the last solution, or even the method of the solution.

After all, James Steve is worried that Kim Yu-fan has the pride and arrogance of Koreans and is unwilling to accept the self-esteem that he wants to save face. Otherwise, James Steve would have made this suggestion as soon as possible. After all, relying on Kim Yu-fan's energy and connections in the small circle of Hollywood, it is definitely much better than choosing a suitable script or focusing on art films.

"Then you can do this with confidence!" At this time, James Steve stood up, looked at Kim Yu-fan who was also standing up and said with a smile: "When things are almost done, I have a goal, and then I will do my best to help you solve the next thing."

"Well, I know." Kim Yu-fan smiled and patted James Steve, then watched James Steve, who declined his invitation to dinner. Until James Steve got into the car and left his sight, Kim Yu-fan turned around and walked into the house, took out his cell phone and started to call Brad Pitt.

Although, under the introduction of Brad Pitt, Kim Yu-fan now has a good relationship with Dwayne Johnson, Van Diesel, Robert Downey Jr. and others, strictly speaking, Kim Yu-fan has the best relationship with Brad Pitt, so of course you have to look for Brad Pitt first.

Although Kim Yu-fan also knew that Brad Pitt brought himself closer to that small circle, of course, must have his own ideas. It is not that Brad Pitt really knows how awesome he is, or more of it is seeing his own money and power.

But it doesn't matter, Kim Yu-hwan doesn't care at all. This club is part of his own strength. If an actor of Brad Pitt doesn't value his own, he is very enthusiastic about himself, that would be abnormal.
