But this time, Steve Kevin's new movie once again sent him an invitation.
Compared with two years ago, the status of Steve Kevin now is not the same.
The winner of the Oscar, the major shareholder of MGM Films, and the boss of Chenxi Films are all titles. Any one of them is a blow to the Hong Kong entertainment circle.
Being able to receive such a big man is also a recognition of his status in the world.
Yuan Heping quickly ordered the two apprentices he liked to prepare the vehicle in advance, and after a day of preparation, he went to the airport with them to receive Steve Kevin.
Chapter 146
Yuan Heping is waiting for the arrival of Steve Kevin.
On the other hand, Jackie Chan, who had always wanted to break into the international market, especially the US market, decided to approach Yuan Heping after hearing the news.
...
"Brother, I heard that you have some kind of friendship with director Steve Kevin. I wonder if I can introduce you."
In Yuan Heping's residence, Jackie Chan mouthed a big senior brother, and he pretended to be close.
In fact, before the release of Serpentine Hands, although in terms of seniority, Yuan Heping and him were brothers, but the two sides really didn't have much friendship.
But at that time, Jackie Chan was at a low point in his career.
It was Yuan Heping who appointed Jackie Chan to star in the first film he directed, Serpentine Hand, through this different action comedy movie that combines hard kung fu with humorous action design.
Created a unique kung fu comedy trend, which made Jackie Chan soar all the way and became popular all over Hong Kong.
There is no need to mention Jackie Chan's kindness.
I only know that in the future, in countless interviews, Jackie Chan has expressed respect and gratitude to Yuan Heping, a big brother.
"Skin monkey, how did you know this news?"
Looking at Jackie Chan who was offering tea attentively, Yuan Heping rubbed his head and asked directly.
Jackie Chan smiled and passed the tea in his hand. After Yuan Heping took the tea and agreed to his request, he ran to the side and said in a non-formal way:
"It was Mr. Zou who got the news. He knew about my relationship with you, so I asked you to come to your door directly to beg you."
Yuan Heping snorted.
"Sure enough, it's an old fox. He doesn't give any benefits, but wants to prostitute my contacts for nothing."
"That's definitely impossible, Mr. Zou is not this kind of person."
"Brother, if I can get on line with Director Steve Kevin, as Mr. Zou said, it will double the current business volume of Yuan Jiaban."
Hearing Jackie Chan's words, Yuan Heping nodded.
As the head of a class, his task is to find work everywhere so that at least everyone in Yuan's class can afford to eat.
In terms of the abilities of the members of the Yuan family class, the income of Hong Kong dragon and tiger martial artists is definitely not low.
Therefore, instead of receiving so much work.
And Zou Wenhuai's promise is undoubtedly to allow Yuan Jiaban to eat even if he does not go to the United States to open up the market.
"Then you can go with me, but let me know in advance, I don't know if Director Steve Kevin knows you, and whether you can get in touch with him."
"Hey, leave it to me."
Before Jackie Chan came, he asked a friend to learn more about Steve Kevin's hobbies. It has to be said that men's hobbies are always so consistent at certain times.
Women, food, and just a few hobbies.
And in this regard, Steve Kevin's reputation is very good. Although he is a playboy, the women around him have been very generously rewarded.
The three women currently recognized in Hollywood who have a relationship with Steve Kevin have all been promoted to first-line female stars in the industry through Steve Kevin's movies.
In the industry, I don't know how many female stars want to hook up with Steve Kevin.
If Jackie Chan can help female stars in the Hong Kong circle to match up, I don't know how grateful they will be to Jackie Chan.
........
A day later, Kevin got off the plane with two of his bodyguards.
"Director Steve Kevin, here, here."
From afar, Kevin saw a familiar face, jumping up and down and shouting his name.
With two bodyguards, Kevin walked towards the place where the familiar Jackie Chan was.
Beside Jackie Chan, it was Yuan Heping who came to pick up Kevin.
Thanks to the small size of Hong Kong, Hong Kong people can meet celebrities almost every day, which has long been no surprise.
Although Jackie Chan appeared at the airport, only a few fans came to sign.
At this time, no one came up to bother.
The distance of a hundred meters is covered in tens of seconds.
As soon as they met, Jackie Chan enthusiastically stepped forward and introduced himself in English.
"Hi, I'm Jack Chen, and I'm brother Yuan Heping's junior."
"Speak Cantonese, I can speak Cantonese."
After many years, when he returned to the territory of Huaguo, Kevin was really moved with emotion.
Facing Jackie Chan's self-introduction, Kevin, who was very interested, even spoke Cantonese directly.
"Hello, my Chinese name is Jackie Chan."
Following Kevin's words, Jackie Chan introduced himself in Cantonese.
Although he has something to ask for from Steve Kevin, he is also a very proud person after all, and it is impossible to play any kind of groveling.
He wants to try to be friends with Steve Kevin.
I just don't know if Steve Kevin is the same ghost as some unqualified ghosts.
Jackie Chan, who has been in Hollywood, knows how serious the discrimination against Chinese is there. If Steve Kevin is that kind of person, then all his plans will go bankrupt.
Don't even think about being friends today.
"I know you, Kung Fu star, Jackie Chan."
Kevin smiled happily. This kind of acquaintance is much more pleasing to the eyes than Americans.
"Let's find a place to eat first. I have wanted to eat authentic Hong Kong food for a long time."
When we landed, it was just after ten o'clock in the morning, and it was time for dinner soon.
Kevin was a little hungry, and after a short chat with Jackie Chan, he couldn't wait to take them to prepare for a good meal.
Looking at the anxious Kevin, Jackie rubbed his nose.
"How do you feel that this guy is a bit like a Chinese, he rushes to eat as soon as he comes."
.......
In a high-end Hong Kong-style tea restaurant.
The round table in the box is covered with dozens of small plates, which contain all kinds of delicacies.
The two bodyguards and the other two apprentices brought by Yuan Heping ate outside, and only Jackie Chan, Yuan Hepin and Kevin were left in the box.
"This shrimp dumpling is good and delicious."
After stuffing himself with a few shrimp dumplings in a row, Kevin slowed down and chatted with Jackie Chan and Yuan Heping.
"Yuan Wuzhi, I came here specifically to find you. For my new movie, the action design in it, no one in Hollywood can complete these tasks."
"Only you can complete this task. I don't know what to do next. Do you have time?"
Yuan Heping pretended to be calm, nodded and said:
"Director Kevin is kind enough to invite me, so naturally I can't refuse."
Yan Bi, afraid that the Chinese language might be a bit convoluted, hastily continued to add:
"I mean, I am willing to accept your invitation."
Steve Kevin flew to Hong Kong specifically to invite him to participate in the shooting of his new movie, how face-saving it is to say it.
Yuan Heping could imagine that this incident, even after 20 years, could be used as his bragging capital.
No way, the halo on Steve Kevin's body is too dazzling.
If ordinary people in Hong Kong may not know him yet, then the name Steve Kevin is well-known in Hong Kong entertainment circles.
No one knows, no one knows.
Chapter 147 Give Yuan Heping a Favor
Of course, Steve Kevin's reputation in Hong Kong is also indispensable for his contribution.
On his trip to the United States, he brought many members of the Yuan family class.
After they came back, these people bragged wildly, and at the same time, popularized science to other dragon and tiger martial arts masters, Steve Kevin, how good he is in Hollywood.
In a disguised form, Yuan Heping's status was raised.
Thanks to their credit, Steve Kevin's reputation in the Hong Kong entertainment circle is no less than that of Spielberg.
Kevin nodded, not surprised by his choice at all, and then said the second thing.
"One more thing, my Chenxi film company, the future film plan needs a lot of martial arts, I hope to collect a martial arts team of 30 to [-] people and a team of dragon and tiger martial artists through your contacts."
"I guarantee that the annual salary of those who act as martial arts action instructors is no less than [-] U.S. dollars, and the annual salary of other martial arts instructors who have not been able to be named is also no less than [-] U.S. dollars."
"Also, their wages will increase year by year along with the increase in prices."
A team of 30 to [-] people, of which Kevin plans to promote five to eight of the best dragon and tiger martial arts masters, as a pseudonymous martial arts action director, a position that Hollywood does not have.
Of course, this position is not so fixed, whoever performs well will be in the next movie.
Kevin's meaning is very simple, a guaranteed annual salary of [-] US dollars will directly reach the level of the American middle class.
As for why so much money is given, I can only say that they are worth the price.
In fact, the profession of martial arts action guidance was originally created in Hong Kong. It was not until the release of The Matrix in history that it attracted the attention of Hollywood.
Hollywood directors found that after having a martial arts action director from Hong Kong, some action scenes in the movie became much better.
The original Hollywood action scenes, in front of this group of Hong Kong martial arts, seem to have suffered a dimensionality reduction blow.
Comparing the two action scenes, the Americans suddenly found out why the action scenes in those movies without martial arts are so ugly.
Since then, the profession of martial arts action director is indispensable for all large-scale productions that involve action scenes.
Of course, with the development of technology, it will be another matter for Hollywood to directly use technology to steal these martial arts moves in the future.
On this point, Jet Li once mentioned in the media that the Americans offered a high price to thoroughly record and copy all his movements, but he refused.
All this shows that in the future, Hollywood has realized how important martial arts action guidance is in movies.
Kevin is going to introduce this profession in advance to reduce the dimensionality of Hollywood action dramas.
Superhero movies should have been more exciting.
As for the future, countless directors and filmmakers have criticized superheroes.
In Kevin's view, on the one hand, it is true that they have no connotation.
But on the other hand, it is not sour.
Superhero movies have cornered the market, and other movies have lost ground against superhero movies.
This is the most real thing, and it is also the final choice of the audience.
Hearing the price quoted by Kevin, on the one hand, Yuan Heping himself was moved.
On the other hand, he realized that this is actually a big trouble.
When the news got out, I don't know how many dragon and tiger martial artists came to him, begging him to recommend himself to Steve Kevin.
If you don't give it, you will undoubtedly offend others.
If it is given, those who have not received it will also have opinions.
