Why can Hollywood in the United States become the number one in the world?

No country in the world has a better cultural industry than the United States. Hollywood movies are loved by people all over the world. This is of course related to the first-class technology in Hollywood and the "freedom of thought and creation" in the United States. American filmmaker Forgive Everything tells an attractive story. Incest, murder, violence, fraud, theft ... The stories described in American movies have broken through all kinds of taboos. If literary works are stylized and patterned, it is easy to get bored. But Hollywood movies can constantly attract people's attention with strange things, giving people a novel feeling.

Nowadays, science fiction films are more exciting, showing all kinds of unimaginable possibilities, making it difficult to distinguish the real world from the virtual world, thus making people feel that everything shown in the film may appear in reality, such as clones, robots, astronauts, giant machine monsters, time travel, space immigrants ... Box office value is the most powerful grip for Hollywood films, and the consequences of value orientation do not seem to be the main issues that creators, directors and producers should consider. But this is very dangerous. At present, many movies give people the impression that we have more than one earth. In the future, space migration will be as simple as international tourism today. Therefore, we don't have to make a fuss about global environmental pollution, ecological destruction and climate change. This is a very dangerous direction.

Of course, art should break through all kinds of political shackles, but it should not exaggerate anything new. Art should be responsible for its own value orientation, not just the obsession with money.

Of course, Hollywood has also made many good movies, such as Avatar, Captain America, Warcraft and Iron Man. Now the Hollywood market has occupied the whole world and developed so rapidly, which is a great market challenge for local films in China. At present, the film market in China is quite different from that in Hollywood in terms of creation, production technology and film theme, which also requires China filmmakers to learn more.

Of course, there are also some good works, such as Thailand and Wolf Warriors 2, which are very good movies both in theme and production. However, this is only a few works in China's films. Most of the works are still mediocre, with large investment and high production cost. It is not only the standard of a good film, but also the standard of a good film in terms of production level, standard, film material, actors and so on.
