Chapter 400 [No accident, refuse the invitation]
Spielberg recognized Liang Kun because he endorsed Armani.
He has never watched TV series or movies starring Liang Kun, but through the news, he knows that he is an actor.
As early as the 1980s, Giorgio Armani's power continued to expand in Hollywood, officially setting up an exclusive entertainment industry relationship department in the local area, and actively invited the most influential celebrities, directors, public relations and other elites to wear Armani costumes on the screen and red carpets.
Armani has a tailor-made mindset to understand their needs and provide the most appropriate image. When Speeburg walks the red carpet, he wears Armani dresses most of the time. Not only that, on the Hollywood red carpet, Armani dresses are standard equipment for more than half of men.
This year, Pierce Brosnan wore a suit with velvet lapels at the Oscars, and the famous savage commentator Joan Rivers cast a pastime and suspicious look.
Brosnan immediately replied confidently, "There is nothing to say, this is Giorgio Armani." He responded to the possible sarcasm that might follow.
The style of clothing is different from one's own opinion, but this momentum shows that Giorgio Armani is absolutely talented and authoritative.
Spieburg also wore Armani this year, and will customize new clothes next year. He saw that there were Asian faces on Armani's official website, so he paid attention. Liang Kun's unique temperament was enhanced by the system rewards, which left an impression on Spieburg.
Liang Kun's English accent now impresses Speech, because it looks a bit like Leonardo DiCaprio. In 2002, the two collaborated on the movie "Cat and Mouse Game".
The timeliness of chewing gum have not yet passed, and there is a new situation.
An American female journalist followed Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston to the beach. She had just taken two photos and was driven away without interviewing them. When she was depressed, she walked here to recognize Spieburg.
Spieburg has been much better now and has taken off his baseball cap. The female reporter did not take a rash photo this time and came over to ask for an interview.
Spipberg didn't want to mention his hypoglycemia and said casually: "My friend and I are talking about movies. There is a movie this year. I am the producer, and there are characters suitable for him."
This is an entertainment journalist who knows the entertainment industry more well and immediately thinks of a new film about Japanese themes. "Are you talking about "Memoirs of Geisha"?"
"Yes." Spieburg smiled and said, "I'm also very interested in him participating in the Olympics. He is not just an actor, but also a boxing competition."
Armani mentioned this matter in an interview and thought it was very interesting. Spieburg had never seen someone like Liang Kun and remembered it. He was really curious. Can a famous Asian singer win a gold medal in the boxing ring? He had won the Asian championship before.
Liang Kun did not interrupt. Spieburg had recovered now and his orange mission had been completed. The rewards made Liang Kun excitedly want to cheer, and he didn't even listen carefully to what Spieburg and the reporter said.
Because of the reward of this orange mission, the skill was drawn - directed by the film and television drama!
Liang Kun calculated the time. When the task was completed, there was about half a minute before the Lucky Chewing Gum failed. The chewing Gum obviously played a role in the lottery. This was the first time he received a reward when he had a lucky BUFF.
Now he has made a lot of money, and the skills related to being a director must contain a very wide range of content and should not be so easy to obtain.
At the same time, Liang Kun came to a conclusion that this thing is really not "aggressive chewing gum". The previous few times were coincidences. He used it when he was beating people in a boxing club, and that time he did not encounter any angels.
After hearing Spieburg's introduction of Liang Kun, the female reporter immediately wanted to interview him immediately after learning that he was a popular Asian star and Armani's spokesperson for Asia.
"Mr. Liang, will you participate in the movie produced by Director S?"
"I like movies very much and am a fan of Director S. But we are still talking about whether we will play roles." After hearing a few words, Liang Kun knew that Spieburg's movie was "Memoirs of Geisha".
He was the leading producer of this drama, but he didn't care too much about it. He also directed "World War" and was filmed at the same time. The director of this drama is Robert Marshall, and his representative work is the musical and musical film "Chicago".
This movie has been reported many times in China, and some castings have been confirmed long ago. The three Chinese actresses Zhang Ziyi, Gong Li and Yang Ziqiong will star in it, which has also caused some controversy.
Why is the story about Japanese geisha, and the stars are all Chinese? Is this a first release, a cultural hint?
In fact, the reason is very simple. There is no suitable Japanese actress. The Japanese actresses of this period have no influence in Hollywood. No matter what Chinese and Japanese national emotions American talents are, the people in East Asia think they are similar in their image, and whoever is suitable will be promoted.
This is for commercial reasons, and actors are prone to fail without box office appeal. "Memoirs of Geisha" is essentially a commercial film. The script chooses American best-selling rather than Japanese cultural introductions; the actors choose stars who are becoming popular in Hollywood rather than Japanese local actors.
This movie invested in Japan and filmed in the United States, with the protagonist being Chinese and speaking in English, is destined to be full of controversy. If Liang Kun joins the crew, he will not have a suitable role at all.
It is not difficult for Spieburg to arrange a small role for him, but Liang Kun will refuse. Even if he is asked to play the male lead, there is nothing outstanding, and he doesn't like this movie at all.
The reporter also asked about the boxing competition. It is the truth that Spipberg is interested in boxing. He has many action movies he likes. Parallel World has also produced a movie about boxing "Iron Armored Steel Fist".
Liang Kun's answer was the same as when he was interviewed by Chinese media, saying bluntly that he would definitely win the gold medal and would not take a long time to exercise.
"If you understand how easy I won in the Asian Boxing Championship, you will understand why I don't train. In Olympic boxing, there are no professional heavyweight boxers participating, only four rounds, so it's too easy for me to win." Liang Kun smiled.
The reporter sighed: "Mayweather only won one bronze medal at the Olympics. Are you not afraid of saying that? If you don't win the championship in the end, will it have a negative impact on your image?"
"All the boxing matches I participated in were KO opponents, and I will keep this record. I can say with certainty that there will be no accidents."
After the reporter left, Liang Kun's words aroused Spieburg's interest again, and they decided to talk in a different place.
Liang Kun threw away Kamalon's box, took the Spipberg couple to say hello to four friends, and introduced them. If he had lost his sight and didn't come back for a long time, his friends would look for him.
When Liang Kun said that he was the great director Spielberg and his wife, all four of them were stunned. What did Liang Kun do just now? How did he meet such a celebrity?
Like many Americans, Spipberg is interested in Chinese Kung Fu and started talking about this topic.
"Although I just met you, I don't think you are a big talker. The few massages you give me is also very effective. Can you really KO all your opponents to win the championship?"
"Really, if I do my best, to be precise, I will KO all my opponents in one round to win the championship." Liang Kun said with a smile.
After his strength attributes were improved again, he expected that his biggest bench press should be similar to that of the NBA's "Big Shark" O'Neal.
How to play with his opponent? He is a superman who weighs 85 kilograms, has a strength and speed that can beat super heavyweight players.
This time he came not only to win the Olympic gold medal, but also to prove to the world the strength of Chinese Kung Fu. As long as he won the gold medal, he would be more real than Bruce Lee's Kung Fu. After all, Bruce Lee has never participated in any official competitions.
Spieburg asked with a smile: "Did you know I want to produce a movie about Japanese geisha? Are you interested in playing a role?"
"Sorry, I refuse. I have watched the movie introduction on the news and don't like that story very much." Liang Kun said with a smile.
Spieburg was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect Liang Kun to refuse so simply. Asian actors are willing to play even the smallest roles and no matter how low their pay is, they are willing to play them.
He was even more curious about Liang Kun. "You haven't even asked what role it is. What if I let you play the leading role? What if you refuse so quickly and miss an important opportunity?"
"I will refuse the male lead, either I don't have confidence in my acting skills or I don't like this movie." Liang Kun looked into Spieburg's eyes and answered very easily. "I knew that when I saw the name of the movie, this is a story where a woman is the protagonist, and a man is the foil. Even if he plays the male lead, he will not be outstanding."
"You are really a person with a personality." Spieburg felt that Liang Kun was a little arrogant, but he liked him even more. He could feel the amazing confidence in Liang Kun.
Because Liang Kun speaks English accent a bit like Leonardo and his eyes are radiant. He feels that Liang Kun is also a person who has a great pursuit of movies, and will choose roles and want to play better roles.
Leonardo was not satisfied with business influence and turned to a higher professional field, which Spipberg knew.
Friends heard their conversation aside, and Constantine interpreted the three people who were average in English, and they were all very surprised.
Wei Kun was particularly moved. When he first met Liang Kun, he regarded him as an opponent and thought he was also a talented man. Later, he found that he could not compete and could not even touch the opponent's side, so he gave up.
Now he feels that it is wise to let go. In the Chinese entertainment industry, no actor can compete with Liang Kun. He is probably the only actor who will refuse Spielberg's invitation.
Spipberg asked again: "What are your plans for your future? Are you willing to develop in the United States?"
Liang Kun nodded. "I will go to the United States to develop, and I want to go next year. After graduating from college, I will also sing in addition to acting in movies, and I also want to learn to be a director. I have some research on photography, but I don't know enough about director's work."
Spieburg smiled and said, "If you want to develop Hollywood, you can contact me. I hope to have the opportunity to cooperate with you in the future."
"Thank you, so do I."
