Director’s Legend

"By the way, after "Night Watchman", didn't you say that you are going to shoot "Old Boy"? When are you going to start?" Huang Bo asked.

In fact, as early as 2006 when he participated in "The Voice of China", Shao Shuaijun wrote the song "Old Boy" and had the idea of ​​making it into a movie. Although "Old Boy" is about the pursuit of music dreams, the emotions and life hardships in it are so moving.

For those born in the 1970s and 1980s, "Old Boy" is the song that touches the heart the most. As the micro-movie of the same name of "Old Boy" said at the end of the film: "Dreams, like classics, will never fade with time, but become more precious."

In the previous life, "Old Boy" was a song by Chopstick Brothers, and they also filmed a micro-movie of the same name, which has hit tens of millions of hits and touched countless people.

Shao Shuaijun is one of them. He has also struggled for a long time, but in the end he is not even a third-rate director. His dream is like a ship drifting away, but he still refuses to dock. "Old Boy" is his favorite micro movie. In his previous life, he once wanted to turn "Old Boy" into a movie and show it in theaters.

This life is capable, this little dream, of course we have to work hard to realize it.

"I already have two plans. One is to star in a movie with you, and the other is to find the latest contracted Chopstick Brothers from my company to star in. Both of them are people with stories. I have already made "Old Boy" "Give them a re-sing, and package it for sale. What do you think should be done?" Shao Shuaijun asked.

"What do you think? I like this story very much. We are North Drifters. Who doesn't have a dream yet. But if you don't act, our stick combination will fall apart, and I won't act anymore."

"I'm not good at acting, and I'm afraid I'll mess it up." Shao Shuaijun actually wanted to act. Although he is a director, "Old Boy" was so touching. He really wanted to use such a movie to remember his past. blown away by the wind. Memories that come back from time to time.

"It's true." Huang Bo sighed regretfully.

Shao Shuaijun thought about it. Suddenly said: "Otherwise, keep it. After a few years, the post-70s and post-80s will grow up, get married and have children. We will shoot again."

"Also."

Huang Bo is also going to take part in a commercial shooting. They parted at the door, Shao Shuaijun bought two breakfasts in the cafeteria, and returned home. Li Xiuxiu is dressing in the room. Seeing Shao Shuaijun push the door in, he was startled, then blushed, and quickly put on the sweater.

"Hey you……"

Shao Shuaijun smiled slightly: "Sister Xiuxiu, you are so beautiful."

"Oh, I...don't stare at me."

Walking gently to Li Xiuxiu's side and hugging her, Shao Shuaijun laughed loudly: "They're both old couples, so why be shy, wash your face and brush your teeth quickly, I've already bought breakfast."

After laughing and playing around after breakfast, Li Xiuxiu was still feeling a little unwell, so Shao Shuaijun forcefully asked her to rest at home for a day. And he still has to go to the company to sign. As the year is approaching, the financial audit of each subsidiary company needs to be signed by Shao Shuaijun for approval. No one else can do this job for him.

Along the way, the employees greeted respectfully, and Shao Shuaijun felt very good.

Going up to his office on the top floor, assistant Wang Cuicui immediately took a bunch of documents for Shao Shuaijun to sign. Within a few minutes, Yi Jianmei knocked on the door beamingly and came in: "Mr. Shao, I'm so happy!"

"Oh, what's the happy event?"

"The third week of box office in North America is out. "Inception" continues to lead the box office rankings with US$33.2 million, achieving three consecutive championships! At present, the total box office in North America is US$213.2 million, and "National Treasure 2" has been overwhelmed We can’t start, and there will be no blockbuster releases next week, and with the reputation of “Inception”, the downward trend in the box office is very small, and we are very likely to achieve four consecutive championships!”

"This is normal. Without these box offices, how can we be worthy of "Inception", such hard work in filming and production." Shao Shuaijun smiled indifferently. With memories of his previous life, he was not surprised. "By the way, Sister Mei, "" Is Inception extended in North America?"

"The theater has already sent a letter, depending on the next trend of the box office, it may be extended for one or two months."

To be able to continue to make money and attract money, the theaters are naturally unwilling to sell paintings, so that they can earn more, and Shao Shuaijun can also earn more, which is gratifying.

Yi Jianmei finished talking about North America, then smiled and said: "The box office in the mainland came out yesterday. Mr. Shao should have watched "News Broadcast". With an absolute advantage of 78.5 million yuan, he snatched the third weekly champion in the mainland box office. At present, the total box office is 402 million yuan, making it the highest box office in mainland film history, and it is expected to reach the impossible height of 500 million yuan."

"Hehe, it seems that 500 million is a big mark now. With the development of the mainland theater chain, more and more movies will break this record." Shao Shuaijun still looked indifferent.

Because the director of "Inception" is Chinese, Zhou Runfa is Chinese, and he is also an investor in Dream Chasing. It has a large number of films and is popular. It is impossible not to get a super box office. But it seems to be a super box office now, but it will not be in the future. At least before Shao Shuaijun's rebirth, "Lost in Thailand" set a box office record of 1.26 billion domestic movies, and "King of the World" Cameron's four-year-old " "Avatar" created a box office of 1.3 billion in mainland film history, and that was only in 2009.

After defeating "Titanic" and "Avatar", Cameron is definitely the lifelong enemy of Chinese filmmakers.

There is still a long way to go, and we still need to work hard!

Yi Jianmei frowned at Shao Shuaijun's calm demeanor, disapproving. It was obvious to all that Shao Shuaijun liked to pretend to be darker than pretending to be serious. Pass a stack of newspapers over: "The global box office has reached 500 million US dollars, and Wu Yusen's record is about to be broken by you. Feel the praise from everyone. In addition, quickly think about how to deal with the media. I have already felt that a large wave of reporters They are rushing towards you, if you don't show up again, the Chasing Dream Film and Television Base will definitely be overturned!"

"It's just right, please help me arrange the press conference and the establishment of the New Film Technology Research Institute together, so as to give the research institute a strong momentum."

"good."

After the interview was arranged, all the media from all over the world gathered at Dream Chasing Entertainment Group. Shao Shuaijun notified the preparatory committee of the 'New Electronic Technology Research Institute' and rushed to the lobby on the first floor of the Dream Chasing Film and Television Base to hold the inauguration ceremony.

On January 9, the interview will be held as scheduled.

In the morning, the entire lobby of Dream Chasing Film and Television Base was crowded with people, shoulder to shoulder, reporters and photographers. Reporters from China, Japan, Germany, France, Russia, the United States, the United Kingdom and Australia, black hair, yellow hair, white hair, red hair, black, white and yellow, reporters from all over the world are here.

For a movie that is hitting box office charts around the world.

"Inception"! (to be continued..)
