As we all know, although Hollywood is known as the holy place in the hearts of filmmakers around the world, this holy place is not so friendly to actors of other skin colors.

It's funny to say that a country that keeps talking about democracy and freedom and clamoring for human rights is the most discriminatory country in the world.Racial discrimination, gender discrimination, skin color discrimination, cultural discrimination, as the famous actor Li Zhaoxi once said: "It's like being in a glass cover, you know they are discriminating against you, but no one will say it, but the diaphragm is It really exists. It cannot be seen with the naked eye, but it can be touched in the heart.”

Over the years, there have been very few Chinese actors who have been able to gain a foothold in Hollywood. There are only a few exceptions, and all of them are martial arts superstars. Most of the film contracts and roles they received in Hollywood are limited to this frame. Someone tried to break through, but finally hit the transparent ceiling with a broken head.Either stay in Hollywood without embarrassment, or return to China to rebuild the country.

Before that, Chen Mo had experienced Hollywood's prejudice and unfriendliness towards people of yellow race.He chose to explode.And today, Chen Mo really felt the enthusiasm of the audience in country M.Looking at the crooked nuts holding various "Food Color" posters and food pictures in the airport lobby, and listening to the Chinese spoken by audiences of various skin colors, either with correct accents or nonsensical accents, Chen Mo was in a daze In the middle, especially vulgar ones, a sense of national pride that cannot be ignored spontaneously rose from my heart.only--

"Crystal Elbow", "Braised Pork", "Boiled Dried Shredded Noodles", "Wensi Tofu", "Oil Splashed Noodles"...

"Why are they all the names of the food?" Chen Mo listened attentively, thinking for a while, dumbfounded.

Squeezing out of the crowded airport, the crew members of "The Old Moon vs. Cupid" boarded the car and arrived at the hotel smoothly.Mu Yu and his business team won't be here until two days later.Chen Mo arrived ahead of time with the crew, also to arrange the preparatory work - so as not to delay the two people's public-funded honeymoon tour~

In the end, Chen Mo and Yang Qindong still underestimated the influence of "Food and Color" in M ​​country.

On the night when the crew of "The Old Man vs. Cupid" arrived in New York, as a manager, Yang Qindong received invitations from influential local variety shows and talk shows in the atmosphere country M, and three more were invitations to launch new international luxury products. Invitation letters from , interviews from two fashion magazines, and interview invitations from two online media.

Under the arrangement of Yang Qindong, Chen Mo took on a talk show, an invitation letter for an international luxury accessories conference, an interview on the cover of a fashion magazine, and an interview invitation from an online media. After finishing all these things, Mu Yu and his commercial team were long overdue.

The two had only been intimate for one night in the hotel. On the third day, Chen Mo returned to the crew to perform his duties as a producer——

Because of the title of "Yuelao vs. Cupid", everyone knows that Zhujiao must be Yuelao and Cupid, but with Chen Mo's image, neither of these two roles is suitable for him.Therefore, when finally choosing the role, Chen Mo and Zhang Zongming discussed several times, and finally, considering the salary and audience acceptance, they chose a handsome and lovely child actor with excellent acting skills from the Hollywood actor union list to play the role of Cupid. , As for the role of Yuelao, Du Mobai, who has been in Hollywood for several years and even won the Oscar for Best Foreign Language Film, was invited to play the role.Chen Mo plays the role of fiance Li Ming in the film, and the heroine is still played by Dai Xiaorou, the Queen's Queen of Starlight Film and Television. Chinese music superstars Yuan Haobin and Ji Ze also guest-starred as relatives in the film.

Because Chen Mo and Dai Xiaorou didn't have any location roles, Dai Xiaorou was not included in the crew that flew to Country M, and Chen Mo only played the role of producer in the play, responsible for coordinating the crew's affairs.It seems that it is much more leisurely than other people who are charged with shooting tasks.There is also plenty of time to accompany Mu Yu - to wander the streets and alleys of New York after get off work and taste the specialties of the food here.

The few people sent by Liang Zhao were honestly working on the spot in the crew. As for where they went after returning to the hotel after work, Chen Mo didn't bother to ask.

The negotiation between Mu's Group and an automobile group in country M is also on the right track. As the negotiation deepens, Mu Yu has less and less free time. When Chen Mo has nothing to do, he helps Mu Yu sort out the negotiation materials. , appearing staggeringly in the crew during the day.

Probably because he couldn't get used to his leisurely life, Yang Qindong brought a script in the second week of filming - also when the location filming was coming to an end.

"Director Wilson Kerton's new work? Invite me to play the male number three?" Chen Mo flipped through the script suspiciously, raised his eyebrows and asked, "Why did you choose me to play this role?"

Speaking of this director, the only intersection between Chen Mo and him was probably at the Cannes Film Festival that year, when Wilson Kerton's "Nazi Diary" defeated his "In the Name of Love", and it deservedly won several awards. seat statuette.

"There must be a reason why he insists on using you." Yang Qindong shrugged his shoulders: "Do you want to take it?"

Chen Mo didn't speak, but just read the script carefully.This script is not complete, only part of the plot about the role he wants to play, which is probably the part he will play during the audition.

It has been a long time since Chen Mo tried to get a role by auditioning, and now he is thinking about Director Wilson's new work carefully.It did raise some interest.

Wilson's new work "The Seventh Treasure" is probably a novel about exploring tombs.The male No. [-] that Chen Mo will play is a Chinese archaeologist whose ancestors built a tomb for the emperor.Because of his family background, he is very familiar with Feng Shui organs and the like.

A big chaebol from country M supported the hero in setting up an expedition team, and found the head of the hero No. [-] when recruiting members.Because the mausoleum that this expedition team is going to break into is the mausoleum built by the ancestor of Nan No. [-] for Emperor Kublai Khan of the Yuan Dynasty.

The Yuan Dynasty was the most extensive dynasty in the history of China. His iron cavalry was accompanied by blood and killings and once deterred half of Europe.In the hearts of many crooked nuts, there is no doubt about the bravery and strength of the Yuan Dynasty.Moreover, the extravagance of the nobles in the Yuan Dynasty in terms of food and clothing is also world-famous.There was a "Marco Polo's Travels" in the West, which described in detail the vast land and resources of China in the Yuan Dynasty.The author uses extremely exaggerated language to describe China in the Yuan Dynasty as a "paradise full of gold".

In his new work "The Seventh Treasure", Wilson also spent a lot of money to arrange the tomb of Kublai Khan, the emperor of the Yuan Dynasty.Of course, there are also those hidden weapons in the mausoleum that are so numerous and frightening.

The male number three that Chen Mo will play should play the role of a tour guide throughout the movie.Responsible for providing clearance strategies for the male and female protagonists, and eventually died tragically under the frame of the villain in order to save the male protagonist.

Overall, the character design is good, but Chen Mo couldn't help frowning because of the half-knowledge of Chinese elements in the script and Zhang Guan Li Dai.

From the fragment of the script in just a few words, Chen Mo can see that Director Wilson still loves Chinese elements.He really wanted to introduce the part of Chinese culture about Feng Shui and organ art into his film, but unfortunately, the screenwriter who wrote the script didn't know much about this aspect, and many of the passages involving professional knowledge were obviously cited. it is wrong.This is just a small part of the audition script, and there are already so many mistakes and omissions. If it really involves props and scenery, I am afraid there will be more mistakes.

Chen Mo is sure that after such a movie is made, it will definitely not be able to please the Chinese movie fans.

Chen Mo thought about it again and again, and finally called Director Wilson himself on the grounds that the schedule could not be arranged, and declined his invitation to audition.

But he didn't expect Director Wilson to laugh out loud after hearing his excuse, and bluntly exposed Chen Mo's lie.

"Chen, let's not go around in circles. Let's just say it, you must think my script is too rough, and it doesn't accurately depict the history and customs of China, so you don't want to take the filming?"

Chen Mo smiled slightly, of course he would not admit such a thing.

Director Wilson continued: "I know the weakness of this script. But I really want to shoot a movie about oriental exploration. I think we can cooperate completely. Chen, because of "The Color of Food", you have succeeded Introduced oriental elements into Hollywood and into the world. Don't you want to take this opportunity to achieve greater success?"

Chen Mo smiled and said, "What can Director Wilson teach you?"

"Hollywood is a very real place. Here, opportunities are fleeting. If you don't seize them in time, you may never have another opportunity." Wilson smiled: "I know your new work. Forgive me Frankly speaking, if you want to use this film to break into Hollywood, it may be difficult. In Hollywood, the most popular things are always war, adventure, special effects, and tepid love stories...except for the big ship back then , it doesn’t seem to be particularly memorable. I mean the box office. But to a certain extent, the box office definitely represents the audience’s recognition of the film. Chen, what do you think?”

Chen Mo said with a smile: "It seems that Director Wilson is very confident in his lobbying."

"I also have confidence in your ambition." Wilson said: "My big adventure, the hero is the world's most popular Steven Chris King, and the heroine is the world's best sexy stunner Angelina The male number three will be the most influential in China, and also the leading actor of the most viewed TV series in the world. The special effects and editing team are also the best in the world. If there is another script with good quality, I believe it will change more perfect."

"Dear Chen, I've finished the whole jigsaw puzzle, and you're the only one left. Are you sure you want to reject my invitation?" Director Wilson asked confidently on the other end of the phone.
