Let’s talk about July 1995.

"The Disguised Man" starring Zhou Xingchi and Jennifer Aniston will be released in late June.

Because it happens to be the summer season, young audiences have the most free days. Young people are the most open-minded and don’t mind that Zhou Xingchi is a yellow race. For example, Jackie Chan and Bruce Lee are very popular among young Americans, and Jackie Chan has become the most successful Chinese movie star in Hollywood.

Therefore, "The Disguised Wizard" did not have a big impact on the box office just because it was a Chinese actor.

The story of this movie is fresh and interesting, the special effects are exaggerated and funny, Zhou Xingchi's acting skills are perfect, and Jennifer Aniston is indeed a stunner, so this makes the box office performance of "The Disguised Wizard" very good.

For half a month, the box office every day exceeded 10 million US dollars, which means that the cumulative box office of this movie has exceeded 180 million US dollars.

Such achievements are not inferior to those of Chinese movie stars, even compared with local American stars, and are even better than those of American stars.

Therefore, Zhou Xingchi's first shot in Hollywood was successfully launched.

For a moment, he was invited to film a film appointment and flew over like snowflakes.

However, after watching it, Xia Tian shook his head again.

Most of these film appointments were invited to play supporting roles, and they were all characters like jokes and clowns. Just like Wu Mengda next to Zhou Xingchi.

According to Wang Jing, Zhou Xingchi's performance style is a "full-up" performance method, similar to the positioning of "funny" in crosstalk.

If it is changed to a play for others (supporting the role), it will definitely be a waste of talent for Zhou Xingchi, and it can even be said to be a humiliation.

Because the movie he starred in, he just won a box office of 1.80 billion US dollars. Such impressive results are rare in Hollywood. If Zhou Xingchi is a local American movie star, he would definitely be the well-deserved male lead in the next drama.

Just like Stallone, the box office hit by "Rocky", which quickly became the most popular movie star in Hollywood. It has been a constant film contract, and it is also the male lead. No one cares about him having made adult films, and no one cares about how ugly he looks.

But now, most of the film contracts made by these film companies to play supporting roles, and their roles are still very disgraceful, which is clearly racist.

Therefore, Xia Tian rejected all these film contracts and listed these indifferent companies as rejected accounts.

In the future, they no longer want to release movies through the channels of World Production, CBS, and Universal Pictures. They don’t expect CBS and Snow Media to play their movies, and they don’t expect Blockbuster Audio and Video Chain to promote their movies.

Of course, if they want to remove the list from the blacklist, they must come over and lick Summer. Otherwise, they will just wait to cry.

World Production, Universal Pictures, and Columbia Pictures, now occupy nearly half of Hollywood's market, while Snow Media and CBS are the cable and wireless TV giants, and Blockbuster Audio and Video chains are the largest audio and video chains in the United States and even the world.

These channels are very important for film giants. For example, film companies such as Disney, Fox, and Paramount can get hundreds of millions of profits from Blockbuster Audio and Video chain stores every year.

For small and medium-sized film companies, these channels are what they dream of. Without these channels, their movies will be difficult to release, and it will be difficult to continue to make money through TV screenings and video rentals.

In this way, their losses will be huge, and they are not something that they and the film companies can afford.

Xia Tian wanted to use this method to punish the big commandments so that those film companies could know what "respect" is.

...

When summer gets angry, it's awesome.

These film companies originally talked about film distribution with Tianxia Production, Universal Pictures, and CBS, but were turned away; they talked about film broadcasting with CBS and Snow Media, but were suddenly removed from the program list; they talked about film rental with Blockbuster Audio and Video chain, but suddenly encountered a million-dollar return...

They encountered difficulties everywhere and everything went wrong. When they hit the bag, they finally realized who is in charge of Hollywood now?

The entertainment kingdom of summer has already occupied half of Hollywood. Once it annoys him, it will be equivalent to half of the income. Most Hollywood film companies, which seem to be glamorous, are actually hovering on the verge of bankruptcy.

If a movie makes money, it may be able to slow down for another two years. If it loses money, the company will soon go bankrupt. Therefore, every penny is important to them. If half of the income is reduced, it will be a disaster for them.

Zhou Xingchi should be the actor that Xia Tian is interested in, otherwise he would not have taken the risk of letting him play the leading role. And such an actor who was favored by Xia Tian, ​​who just won nearly 200 million US dollars in the box office of the movie, which can be said to be a hit, and naturally he was valued by Xia Tian.

But they don’t have eyes and just ask others to play a small supporting role. This is like making Spielberg’s daughter play supporting roles. No wonder Xia Tian gets angry.

After realizing their mistakes, these film companies came to apologize, saying that they had no intention of racial discrimination and hoped to obtain Xia Tian's understanding and continue to cooperate.

Seeing that they had already bowed their heads, Xia Tian did not refuse to let go. After all, enemies should be resolved rather than made up. He was an outsider in Hollywood, and it would not be good to provoke public anger.

This time I will give them a small lesson. If I am correcting this, I will be happy in the future. If I don’t repent, I will punish them in the future, which is not considered bullying.

Then Zhou Xingchi got multiple opportunities to star in the movies, and Xia Tian then helped him choose "No More" for the movie.

This is a crime comedy, telling the story of an unlucky guy who was frustrated at work and cheated on his wife. When he was mentally broken, he encountered a robber again, so he got angry and instead kidnapped the robbers from California to Arizona (near Mexico), and worked with the robbers to find ways to overcome the difficulties together.

This movie, which Xia Tian had watched in his previous life, was known to be a very good crime comedy. It won more than 40 million US dollars in the United States and the global box office reached 120 million US dollars. This result is already very impressive for a comedy.

Xia Tian is preparing to let Zhou Xingchi play the unlucky robber, and then pair it with a white movie star with box office appeal to form a "two-hero film" pattern.

This will ensure the box office, and Zhou Xingchi won’t be too hard. After all, it’s still a bit difficult for him to get a box office for monoclonal protection now.
