  Daryl's feeling that Hollywood is spreading a "Chinese actor" fever brought him here in China. Recently in Hollywood, Liu Yuling is making her mark; the movie "Crazy Rich Asians" wins high box office in Hollywood. They are indicative of the arrival of Hollywood "China fever". Daryl thinks that Hollywood is brewing an "Asian revolution". Chinese actors are more and more welcomed by Hollywood, and Chinese themes, even Chinese movies are gradually attracted the attention of Hollywood and the American people. There are also many Hollywood films funded by Chinese people, so he is very optimistic about Chinese talents, and also hopes to build a bridge to introduce Chinese entertainers to Hollywood.

         Daryl said that to become a celebrity in Hollywood, first, you need the help from a good agent to gain good opportunities and resources. Meanwhile, your own ability and fortune are also very important. He is eager to find some potential actors in China to enter the Hollywood market and inject new blood into them. Therefore, he decided to come to China and cooperate with TOPhoeniX to launch a series of cooperation projects, so that Chinese entertainers have the opportunity to shine in Hollywood.

11月7日，好莱坞金牌经纪人、好莱坞电影人才协会联盟主席Darryl Marshak（达里尔·马沙克）先生现身广州接受了媒体采访。

达里尔·马沙克是一位电影界资深权威。他的电影作品《阿扎姆》(Adzam) 曾代表美国国家参加阿姆斯特丹第十届年度缪斯电影节，并在 KCET 电影节上获 得特别荣誉奖。他的代表作《脚尖儿（Tiptoes）》，主演网罗了奥斯卡及金球奖影帝马修·麦康纳（Matthew McConaughey）和《权力的游戏》中的小恶魔彼特·丁拉基（Peter Dinklage）等大咖演员。他的另一部代表电影作品《任何一天（Any Day）》，主演网罗了出演过《指环王》、《007:黄金眼》、《国家宝藏》和《特洛伊》的肖恩·宾（Sean Bean）、《绝望主妇》和《蛇蝎女佣》伊娃·朗格利亚（Eva Longoria）、 《CSI》和《实习医生格雷》凯特·沃什（Kate Walsh）等大牌明星。

达里尔主席在电影人才培养和营销方面成绩卓越，他于20世纪末主导创建了好莱坞电影人才协会联盟。他还是美国电影科学院和电视学院 （The Academy Of Motion Picture & Sciences & The Television Academy）的成员，曾获得洛杉矶电影教师协会奖。作为好莱坞金牌经纪人，达里尔成功挖掘了莱昂纳多·迪卡普里奥 Leonardo Dicaprio(《泰坦尼克号》)、希拉里·斯万克 Hilary Swank(《百万美元宝贝》)、詹姆斯·弗兰科James Franco(《蜘蛛侠》)、罗 伯特·帕特里克 Robert Patrick(《终结者 2》)、妮可·盖尔·安德森 Nicole Gale Anderson(《侠胆雄狮》)等众多好莱坞巨星，被业界尊称为拥有“点石成金”能力的“超级达里尔The Amazing Darryl”，享有“好莱坞金手指 The Golden Finger of Hollywood”的美誉。

这次达里尔来到中国，是因为他感受到了好莱坞正在蔓延着一股“华人明星潮流”，无论是最近在好莱坞大展拳脚的刘玉玲，又或是在好莱坞夺得高票房的《摘金奇缘》等都预示着好莱坞“中国潮”的到来。达里尔本人也表示好莱坞正在酝酿一场“亚洲革命”，华人明星越来越受到好莱坞的欢迎，同时中国题材、甚至中国电影也逐渐受到了好莱坞和美国人民的关注。也有不少好莱坞电影是中国人投资，因此他非常看好中国人才，也很希望能够成为一座桥梁，为好莱坞引进中国演艺人才。

曾经发掘并捧红了非常多好莱坞巨星的达里尔，表示他天生有识别好演员的一双“慧眼”，他透露莱昂纳多·迪卡普里奥就是一个非常诚实、谦虚、思维开放的人，“他对于细节非常关注，同时也能很快地感受到人与人之间微妙的细腻情感，我想这是他最终成为巨星的很重要的一个原因”。

作为一个金牌经纪人，达里尔表示开阔的眼界也非常重要。他透露当年“小李子”刚出道时，他提议对方出演《不一样的天空》，但当时小李子青睐另一部电影，他拿出一百美元跟小李子打赌，说《不一样的天空》一定能让他成功，最后他果然赢了，该片使莱昂纳多一举获得金球奖和奥斯卡最佳男配角提名，让他崭露头角，而这张被莱昂纳多签了名的一百美元现在仍被达里尔好好保存着。

达里尔还透露了一个他和《老友记》丽莎·库卓（LISA KUDROW）的小故事：当年丽莎·库卓刚被一个非常著名的电视节目拒绝了，非常伤心。达里尔对她说没关系，会有适合她的角色出现，果然一周后她就接到了《老友记》的通知，这部剧也使她声名大噪。

达里尔表示在好莱坞，要成为一个明星，首先得有合适的经纪人，这样才会有相应的机会和资源。同时自身的能力和运气也是非常必要的。他非常希望能在中国发掘一些有潜力的人进入好莱坞市场，为他们注入新鲜血液。因此他决定来到中国，与凤翎环宇公司合作展开一系列合作计划，让中国的演艺人才有机会进军好莱坞，在当地发光发热。
