Zhang Yimou's "Hero" opened the "blockbuster era" of Chinese films. This time, Laomouzi has stepped forward again, becoming the first domestic movie to feature a Hollywood first-line star as the leading actor, and has invited the best special effects and production teams in Hollywood to join in. , a reporter asked at the launch conference whether the move was intended to open a new era of Chinese films, that is, to go global. In this regard, Zhang Yimou said frankly, "The whole strategy of Chinese film is to go to the world. Although this slogan has been shouted for many years, I personally estimate that it will be a little faster than Chinese football. But as a director, you can't think like this, otherwise the haste will fail." . Talking about why he chose a Hollywood first-line star, Zhang Yimou said: "The male lead in the film plays a very important role and is the core character in the whole story. It needs to be played by actors with superb acting skills, and the investors are willing to make such a large investment to support me. , fulfilled my wish. For many years, the films we made were self-talking, and young people in the West did not understand it. The addition of a big Hollywood star like Bell will make the whole world pay attention to this film.” At the same time, Zhang Yimou said that he also hoped that this big production could allow Western audiences to understand this period of Chinese history and Chinese culture. As for whether this work can become a new milestone, it should not be defined by me, and I will not comment. "
