What\u2019s surprising is that not only are they shooting there, apparently the movie\u2019s going to be sort of about China too. And you thought it was about watching giant robots punch each other. <\/p>\n<p>The word from ChineseFilms.cn is that the movie is so Chinese-centric that it\u2019s almost like the country is a character in the film. Some of this is likely due to the agreement Paramount had to make with the Chinese government in order to be able to shoot there. That agreement stipulates that the film must feature a certain number of Chinese actors and actresses and the studio has already cast Li Bingbing in a significant role while also running a sort of reality show competition in the country to find other Chinese actors. <\/p>\n<p>All of this would be fine if it had sprung naturally out of the demands of the script, but it sounds more like China is just taking over the film to make the Chinese happy. The truth is that Hollywood wants China\u2019s money. There\u2019s a lot of it to be made and most of the big studios are willing to do just about anything to get it. Maybe China does have some lovely landmarks Michael Bay would like to see his robots destroy, but it\u2019s hard not to think that\u2019s secondary to Paramount\u2019s desire to get the 1.3 billion people of China to open their wallets and buy tickets to their movie. <\/p>\n<p>In the past you may not have even noticed any of this China-pandering going on. Movies like Iron Man 3 have done it by releasing a different versions of the movie in America and China. The Chinese version contains extra scenes meant to cater to Chinese audiences, whether or not it made any sense in context of the movie.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ft-agency.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Transformers-4.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/ft-agency.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Transformers-4-150x150.jpg\" alt=\"Transformers 4\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-5936\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ft-agency.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Transformers-4-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/ft-agency.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/06\/Transformers-4-160x160.jpg 160w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cinemablend.com\/new\/Transformers-4-Deeply-Chinese-Movie-Apparently-38236.html\" title=\"Transformers a Chinese Film\" target=\"_blank\">https:\/\/www.cinemablend.com\/new\/Transformers-4-Deeply-Chinese-Movie-Apparently-38236.html<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Foreign Talent Agency &#8211; Provides Foreign Models, Actors, Host, Dancers and A&#038;R Talent in China.\u5916\u56fd\u4eba\u624d\u4e2d\u4ecb\u673a\u6784 &#8211; \u63d0\u4f9b\u5916\u7c4d\u6a21\u7279\uff0c\u6f14\u5458\uff0c\u4e3b\u6301\u4eba\uff0c\u821e\u8e48\u5bb6\u548cA\uff06R\u5728\u4e2d\u56fd\u7684\u4eba\u624d\u3002<!--:--><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The next Transformers movie is currently filming in China, in part because they\u2019ve run out of things to destroy in America, and in larger part because there\u2019s a lot of money to be made there.
