Regarding the invitation from the "Transformers" crew, Ye Zhiqiu agreed without much thought.

In terms of performance fees, Michael Bay's quotation was US$1 million.

For this price, Ye Zhiqiu didn't bargain anymore and agreed directly.

One million US dollars is equivalent to more than 7 million yuan, which is not a lot at all, and Ye Zhiqiu only has a cameo appearance in the movie for less than five minutes.

You know, he filmed more than 40 episodes of "Sword and Sword Prequel" and only received a salary of just over 10 million, which is the market price.

It can only be said that Hollywood does have money, after all, it is the global market that is harvested.

And this is indeed a rare opportunity, not in terms of music, but in terms of my future layout in the film industry.

It’s not a bad thing to be exposed to Hollywood’s highly professional and commercial film industry earlier.

After the two parties reached an intention to cooperate, the relationship suddenly became much closer. After chatting and laughing for a while, the white director Michael Bay and his assistant left.

Fang Long and Ye Zhiqiu were the only ones left in the box. Fang Long smiled and said to Ye Zhiqiu in Cantonese, "Congratulations, Zhiqiu."

"Becoming another Chinese actor who has successfully landed in Hollywood."

Ye Zhiqiu said quickly: "Thank you, Brother Fang Long, for taking care of me."

Of course, Ye Zhiqiu knew that the other crew never considered him at all in the beginning. If Fang Long hadn't mentioned it deliberately, he probably wouldn't have gotten the role.

Even though it's just a small guest role, in the domestic film industry, this opportunity is probably going to be fiercely contested. It's not surprising that someone is willing to pay to play it.

Again, if an actor has starred in Hollywood movies, it is equivalent to being plated with gold, and his net worth will increase a lot.

Therefore, Ye Zhiqiu was quite grateful to Fang Long in his heart. When the two met for the first time, it was really unexpected that the other party could do this.

"Zhiqiu, you're so polite." Fang Long laughed heartily, "I've seen your movie, and you're very suitable for that role."

"We are all Chinese actors, and we have to help each other when we go out. Besides, if I don't take care of you, I will probably be killed by Zhao Zhao when you return home."

Fang Long joked: "He talked about how good you are so many times on the phone. When he talked about it, I even doubted whether he was bragging. How can there be such an outstanding young man."

"But after all, seeing is believing. Today I really saw that you are indeed a dragon among men. No wonder Lao Zhao respects you so much."

Ye Zhiqiu smiled bitterly and said: "Brother Fanglong, please don't praise me."

"I have only achieved some small achievements. I feel a little embarrassed when you talk about it."

"If one person praises it, it may be accidental. If everyone praises it, it is a fact."

Fang Long shook his head and suddenly said: "Zhiqiu, in fact, I have known you for a long time in China."

Ye Zhiqiu was stunned, and Fang Long said two words with a smile.

"Tang Kui."

Ye Zhiqiu had a good memory and almost blurted out the words.

""Five Elements of Mist Mountain"!?"

Fang Long smiled and nodded, saying: "Xiangjiang is so big, everyone who is a martial arts instructor knows me."

"He was very interested in your anime at that time. He even came to me several times to discuss the action. He always praised you as a genius."

So that was the case. Now Ye Zhiqiu understood. He could only say that Fang Long’s connections were really wide.

Fang Long said: "The United States is a place with a huge market, a lot of money, and a lot of twists and turns behind the scenes, but if you have the ability, you can eventually make money."

"Your song is very popular in the United States now. You need to strike while the iron is hot and increase your popularity as soon as possible. A guest appearance in a Hollywood blockbuster is a good way. This will be very beneficial to your future development."

Having said this, Fang Long sighed and said, "Actually, I am also making a movie now, so I can give you a role."

"The films I made were mostly in the martial arts genre, but fighting films are no longer popular these days. They are not as good as those science fiction blockbusters that invest hundreds of millions. If you go there, it will be a better platform."

"I have been shooting for half my life. I know how to fight, and I only know how to fight, but now there are fewer people watching." Fang Long looked at Ye Zhiqiu and said: "From this point of view, I actually want to thank you for providing a platform for those martial arts practitioners.

New opportunities.”

"Aguidu said that he never thought that his major could be used in animation, and it felt like an eye-opener."

Fang Long's words were sincere. Although his tone was free and easy, he could also hear a bit of loneliness about his best profession being less and less valued in today's market.

Ye Zhiqiu was silent for a moment and said: "Brother Fang Long, actually I don't quite agree with your statement."

This sentence made Fang Long stunned, and Ye Zhiqiu continued: "There are indeed fewer kung fu movies on the market now, but it does not mean that it has declined."

"This subject has been filmed for decades. There are so many classics that the audience has appreciated, and their taste has naturally become higher."

"But Chinese people's love for kung fu themes has not diminished. I believe that as long as there are enough excellent works, the results may not be worse than Hollywood blockbusters."

Ye Zhiqiu spoke very seriously. Fang Longquan thought he was trying to comfort himself and didn't take it to heart.

"Then I accept your good advice. Haha, maybe we can work together if there is a chance to recreate the glory of Kung Fu movies."

Ye Zhiqiu saw what Fang Long was thinking, but without explaining it, he said, "Okay, I can write the script then."

Fang Long was stunned for a moment, then realized and laughed: "That's right!"

"Your boy is also a novelist and screenwriter. He has written several works by himself."

"Old Zhao is right, you are such a freak! You can write, sing and act, hahaha, that's great, you make all the money for yourself!"

Ye Zhiqiu smiled, what he said was not a joke.

Although it is a fact that kung fu movies are declining day by day, and there are even some opinions on the Internet that "kung fu movies are dead", he does not think so.

Taking the past life as an example, there have been many acclaimed and popular works on this subject. These works have carved a bloody path under the impact and encirclement of Hollywood blockbusters.

For example, "Ip Man" was released four times in a row, with the highest box office exceeding 1 billion yuan. This result is no worse than some Hollywood blockbusters.

When I met Fang Long for the first time, the two chatted for a long time.

The more the conversation continued, the more Fang Long admired the young man in front of him. Later, he enthusiastically expressed that they must meet again when Ye Zhiqiu returns to Hong Kong to film "Transformers".

After the fruitful meeting, Ye Zhiqiu returned to the album promotion schedule.

Before the b list data was updated in the third week, a good thing happened, not too big or too small.

——The number of followers of Ye Zhiqiu’s personal Twitter account has skyrocketed.

In just over a week, the number increased from 100,000 to more than 1 million, a direct increase of 10 times. While Universal Music was pleasantly surprised, it was also speculating on the reasons for this change.
