Even if it is "Underworld", it may not have the chance to win the Hong Kong Film Awards in the future, or even the three major European film festival awards.

This is indeed the case. The original version of Underworld 1, not to mention how many Academy Awards and Golden Horse Awards it won, it was also nominated for the Cannes Palme d'Or for Best Film!

If he didn't win the Palme d'Or, it can only be said that Sir Du's bid for the award was still lacking in operation.

Fatty was delighted, "Zhao Sheng, I feel that Old Xu is slandering me..."

Zhao Donghuai didn't mind, and took out two scripts of "Good Will Hunting" and handed them to the two of them. These scripts had already been given to Chen Hong, Qiu Shuzhen, Zhang Min and Gong Li respectively, and were distributed more than a week ago.

The famous school set was naturally the University of Hong Kong, and he was just waiting for the director.

Zhang Yimou, Huang Jianxin and others can also shoot, but those two have already won the Palme d'Or, the Best Director Award, and now it is Lao Xu and Wang Jing's turn to win the honor.

After talking about business, Zhao Donghuai left for the (Never Compromise) crew.

This is not a waste. Chen Musheng and Chen Xunqi are assistant directors, and there is a complete script for each scene. The actors are also big names. When he is not around, it is a trivial matter for the assistant directors to shoot unimportant scenes.

There is no crew with big special effects or big action scenes.

It took more than a month to shoot, and Never Compromise is almost finished!

……………………

A few days flew by.

By late June, Chen Hong's new masterpiece (My Sassy Girl) had been in theaters in Hong Kong for more than three weeks, grossing more than 30 million Hong Kong dollars at the box office.

"Wanwan" has been released for more than two weeks, with a box office of 80 million new dollars, which is equivalent to more than 20 million Hong Kong dollars. Even in the island country, her looks that instantly surpass the oriental aesthetics also made more than 200 million yen at the box office.

It’s really good for a tragicomedy love movie that purely uses female stars as its selling point to achieve such results. Throughout the 1980s and 1990s, Cheng Long’s Who Am I, Double Dragon Club, City Hunter, etc., including Xu Guanwen and Xu Guanjie’s Ghost Horse

With two stars, etc., the entire film will be able to sell a box office of 5.6 billion yen.

In Asia, Ah Hong started his career with a blockbuster movie.

Zhao Donghuai handed over the filming tasks for the new day to two assistant directors. When he saw Zhong Jinghui and Vice Principal He sitting in the office, the two took out a large pile of files.

"Boss, there are too many people coming for the new Asian Opera recruitment period..."

"We have selected some student profiles, would you like to take a look first? By the way, there are also some European and American directors, famous stars, who are also willing to come to the school as guest acting professors and become honorary professors."

"This information has been screened for several rounds."

Zhao Donghuai looked at the two large piles of eucalyptus tens of centimeters high on the table and was a little speechless. They had been screened for many rounds.

The enrollment plan for this new year is very good.

After signaling that they understood, the two principals ran away, while Azhen and Zhang Min quickly ran to see what was going on. After a few people opened the pile of information files, Qiu Shuzhen grabbed a file and exclaimed, "Pfft

, Al Pacino? Real or fake? Isn’t that starring The Godfather of Hollywood?”

"Why would he be willing to come here and become an honorary professor? Teach acting?"

Zhao Donghuai waved, and Azhen also handed over the document and exclaimed again, "Good guy, is this godfather very idle? Isn't he a Hollywood superstar?"

That's right, Al Pacino is now 46 years old. He has already won an Oscar nomination for actor for his wonderful performance in 1974's North America (Conflict), and an Oscar nomination for actor in 1975 (The Godfather Part II).

Nominated for an Academy Award for Best Actor in 1976 ("Hot Afternoon"), and nominated for an Oscar for "Justice" in 1980.

Four Oscar nominations!

There are even more Golden Globe Best Actor nominations!

Such a person comes to the Asian Theater Academy and is currently a professor of acting classes at the Asian Theater Academy, which is a community school? He is so idle??

Zhao Donghuai was also speechless, but after reading Al Pacino's information, he also recalled one thing, that is, in 1985, Al Pacino starred in a war movie with a production cost of 28 million U.S. dollars.

, as a result, the film did not even make 1 million U.S. dollars at the box office in North America.

This actor-level player was deeply affected and stayed away from his original career for four years.

This kind of decline is not because he messed up one movie and no one in Hollywood asked him to film. You must know that his last movie (Scarface) grossed nearly 500 million US dollars at the global box office.

He was also nominated for a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor for (Scarface).

Of course, (Scarface) has achieved both fame and fortune. In terms of reputation, Al also has a mixed reputation. What discredited him was the media's publicity. He played a gangster-type figure in an exaggerated way, and it was easy to teach children bad things.

It is said that he can never escape the inherent impression of The Godfather and gangster movies in anything he makes. This is similar to the fact that after Chow Yun-fat made Shanghai Bund, he first came into contact with the film and television industry for many years and could not escape the image of Xu Wenqiang.

Of course, if you compare Al Pacino with Al Pacino after going to the beach, it is indeed a comparison. It just means that the two are similar in nature.

Previous films such as Scarface had mixed reviews, and in 1985 a new film that cost only a few hundred thousand dollars at the box office with an investment of 28 million U.S. dollars exploded, so Alcaine took the initiative to stop acting.

The failure of one movie was not enough to stop the confidence of several major Hollywood companies in Al. Some groups continued to pay him to make movies, but the film contracts they gave him were generally gangster-type.

If he acted, the box office would not be bad...

But Al Pacino began to have doubts about his performance, went back to stage plays, and began to rethink and analyze his acting style.

At this stage, Alting is nothing, but since he is interested in coming to Asia Opera to be a performance instructor, Zhao Donghuai naturally welcomes him.

Putting down the file, Zhao Donghuai just started to look at the information in front of him, and was slightly surprised. Jennifer Aniston, isn't this the North American sweetheart in the simulator who has been influenced by his love in body and mind?

17-year-old Jennifer wants to come to school at Asia Drama? According to the other party's information, she entered the Rudolf Steiner School of Drama in New York at the age of 6 and started studying. Now in the summer of 1986, Jennifer is still studying and studying at a drama school in New York.

This is a veteran experience after studying acting for 11 years!

Then when 12-year-old Chen Derong saw this little girl, he couldn't help but recall, "You just lost a leg, but she lost love"...

This Ah Rong is young and can only be considered as a child star, but she has already made her debut and started working as an advertising model in 1983.

The next one is from Shanghai. Lu Yi is 10 years old. He is preparing to be a child actor. According to the information, he is the backbone of kindergarten art and literature. He is the kind of person who beats up children randomly. He started acting as a movie actor at the age of 5.

Next up is Xu Zheng, a 14-year-old junior high school student in Shanghai. Information shows that he skips school every day and goes to the Shanghai People's Art Theater next door to watch movies. He is so familiar with it that he can get a chance to perform as a supporting role with the crew.

Suddenly, a group of primary school students and middle school students appeared, speechless. However, this should be the butterfly effect triggered by the news of "Home Alone", even though "Home Alone" has not been released yet.

But that was a blockbuster jointly directed by several directors. Aren’t Cai Shaofen and Cameron Diaz both child stars?

I skipped this Zhao Donghuai and saw the next one, Fei Xiang...what the hell! Fei Xiang is already a big star. The album (Songs Across the Four Seas) released in early 1986 has sold millions of copies so far!

Don’t cheat, albums by Zhang Guorong, Tan Yonglin and others rarely sell millions of copies!

But at this moment, in the letter of recommendation, Fei Xiang really wants to be admitted to the Asia Theater Academy to study performance, which is off the mark!

If I remember correctly, during the Spring Festival Gala this winter, Fei Xiang went to the Mainland and became the first Wanwan singer to take the stage. He directly became popular in the streets and alleys of the Mainland with "Clouds in Hometown" and "A Fire in Winter".

He has become the idol of the times for countless people born in the 1960s and 1970s!

Then he was banned by Wanwan for 14 years.

Originally, his record company had prepared the next big album for him, but it was gone because he was banned...

This is speechless!

But the information prepared by Fei Xiang shows that he was admitted to the Department of Medicine at Stanford University in North America at the age of 18? Yes, this is a top student from Stanford studying medicine!

After studying medicine for a year, he found that he didn't like being a doctor and liked acting, so he studied at the Stanford School of Drama in his sophomore and junior years.

After studying formal acting for two years, I have already participated in four movies in Wanwan, including last year's collaboration with Zhong Yanhong, and three years ago with Zheng Shaoqiu's Qiu Guan.

In the summer of 1986, he was the most powerful male idol in the province, top-notch!

How dare someone like you come to join a community school like Yaxi as a freshman??

He is developing step by step and will become famous in the Mainland during the Spring Festival Gala a few months later. It is estimated that the Spring Festival Gala preparation team has not started yet and has not sent him an invitation.

And this 26-year-old Brother Fei is indeed one of the role models for veteran artists in terms of his acting reputation and so on.

When he went to the Spring Festival Gala, Wan regarded it as a betrayal. After receiving the invitation, countless people around him objected and refused to let him go, so he insisted on going.

Then he was banned for more than ten years. After he became famous in the 1987 Spring Festival Gala in the mainland, he held dozens of concert tours across the mainland three years later. All the money he earned was donated to the 1990 Asian Games in Beijing.

Mainland China bid for the Olympics in 1991 and donated money.

During subsequent floods, floods, snow disasters, etc., his donations were rarely absent.

Three years later, after holding dozens of concerts, he went to New York to engage in stage plays and musicals.

Director Zhao was still recalling Fei Xiang's various situations when he saw Zhang Min holding up a file and saying, "Boss, this Hollywood screenwriter is quite powerful. He has already been nominated for two Oscars for Best Screenplay."

"I have won two Emmy Awards, been nominated once, and have directed three movies... Do you want to be an acting professor? Or teach a directing or screenwriting class?"

Zhao Donghuai took advantage of the situation and used the information that Barry Levinson, the original director of Good Morning Vietnam in 1987, had a box office of US$120 million in North America.

"Rain Man" directed in 1988 not only grossed US$170 million at the box office in North America, but also won the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay, Best Picture, Best Director, and Best Actor.

Big prize!

It also won the Golden Bear Award for Best Film at the 1989 Berlin International Film Festival!

This is a winning achievement!

Part One (Rain Man)......

This Asian Drama School, which is a community college, already has so many people in Hollywood? Obviously not, and you can tell with your toes that there are many white people in the film and television industry who want to get rich by speculating in Japanese yen foreign exchange!

How many people can resist the temptation of getting rich? The entertainment industry is called Vanity Fair. How many people don’t like fame and fortune?

The big bosses in controlling awards at Cannes and the North American Academy have been dragged into the water, and the next wave will be gay.

Of course, you said that Al Pacino took a break from acting for four years to settle down after being hit, and he was not enthusiastic about the film contracts that were offered by major Hollywood actors. He was not particularly fond of money?

Making money by starring in a movie is different from making a guest appearance as an acting teacher and trading Japanese yen in foreign exchange.
