Director’s Legend

"You're always right, Jun."

Li Xiuxiu arched into Shao Shuaijun's arms: "You have a heart that will never be polluted by the world. Do you still remember that on the streets of Phoenix, you said that you would become the king of the world and let everyone dream with you?"

"certainly."

"Everyone wants to have a good dream. When the dream is no longer pure, when the belief is no longer pious, no matter how beautiful the fairy tale is, Snow White will not win the love of the prince. Weave a good dream, let love accompany, and all dreams and hopes will be ignited. The moment Snow White is kissed by the prince is the time when everyone dreams together." Li Xiuxiu murmured softly.

"When did my sister Xiuxiu become a literary young woman?" Shao Shuaijun said with a smile.

Li Xiuxiu stretched out her hands and shouted: "Nietzsche said that he is the sun. I, Li Xiuxiu, said that Ah Jun is the sun! Spread your light and heat, boy!"

"Okay! Let me warm you first, my good wife!"

"Ah ha ha."

"hey-hey."

"High-End Interview" on TV is still going on. Shui Yijun and Shao Shuaijun are talking about the entertainment industry, the Internet, and their ideals in life. I don't know how many people are still watching it. However, the two people in the room were obviously not watching anymore, the bedroom door slammed shut, and a discussion about the sun was staged...

In the next few days, apart from dealing with company affairs, Shao Shuaijun just ate and ate with his old friends from "Crazy Stone". "No Man's Land" has already been drawn, with a total box office of 290 million yuan, just short of breaking through the 300 million mark, and it has also become the first big move of Dream Chasing Entertainment in China this year.

This box office. It also made Huang Bo, Xu Zheng, and Ning Hao a comedy trio. But now Ning Hao is busy re-editing "No Man's Land", looking forward to a breakthrough in North America. Huang Bo and Xu Zheng have also taken over the filming of their own films. They are very busy, and the next cooperation has not yet been finalized.

On this day, Shao Shuaijun was holding the phone in the company, discussing with Mitchell about the release of "500 Days with Summer". Shao Shuaijun is not an ordinary young director, or a director who has just come to Hollywood, but one of the top ten directors in the world's box office. His films are favored by many theater companies, just say hello. It can be released almost anytime you want. The number of theaters is even more impressive.

However, careful consideration should be given to whether it is scheduled to be released during this year's summer vacation or off-schedule.

No clues came out of the discussion. At this time, the door of the office was knocked, and Shao Shuaijun said goodbye to Mitchell. It was Zhang Huahua who knocked on the door. Shao Shuaijun's new assistant. The original Wang Cuicui. He has already been promoted, and is now the deputy general manager of Dream Chasing Game Company. After two years of polishing, he will be the next manager candidate.

"Xiaohua. What's the matter?"

"Boss, a director I've never heard of came outside, claiming to be your old friend, and wants to see you."

"My old friend?" Shao Shuaijun couldn't remember who it was. Even Wang Xiaoshuai and the others who had a normal relationship only needed to make a phone call to make an appointment. Besides, Zhang Huahua should know him, "What's his name?"

"He said his name was Bai Jifei, and he was the director of "The Silence of the Birds in the Trees". I checked, but there is no information about this movie."

"Bai Jifei, "The Silence of Birds in the Tree", Lao Bai?" Shao Shuaijun said in surprise, "Hurry up and invite him in, this is my friend."

Zhang Huahua turned to invite him, Shao Shuaijun was having fun in the office, he didn't know when Lao Bai came over, and he didn't know why he came. Lao Bai had a love for him and a love for him, and Shao Shuaijun remembered them all in his heart. It's just that he hasn't repaid Lao Bai yet, because he doesn't want to change Lao Bai's life trajectory.

As a director, Lao Bai has failed, and he is also wretched. Shao Shuaijun helping him now will only let him continue on the wretched path, continue to play with the little star, and he doesn't know when he will be able to combine with that teary girl. So Shao Shuaijun hopes that after Lao Bai can find true love, he will repay him again.

Two minutes later, the wretched-looking Lao Bai, led by Zhang Huahua, came to the office on the tenth floor. Shao Shuaijun laughed and said, "Old Bai, long time no see."

"Oh, it's really you...well, it's Mr. Shao. I just said that I didn't recognize the wrong person with my tricks. Mr. Shao, I didn't expect that you found Lao Bai's crew back then. It's a joke. Let Shao It's always a joke." Lao Bai smiled brilliantly.

"Xiao Hua, pour tea." Shao Shuaijun waved his hand, and sat down on the sofa with Lao Bai, "Don't take offense at Lao Bai for not revealing his identity back then."

"Look at what Mr. Shao said, it's Lao Bai, my eyesight is clumsy, I didn't recognize my idol when I was in front of him, I'm ashamed."

Shao Shuaijun smiled and said, "At the time "Night Duty" was not doing well at the box office, I was very bored, so I wanted to walk around, and I happened to meet your crew filming in Jiuzhaigou, and went up to have a chat. I also want to thank you, Lao Bai. , let me figure out a lot of truths, people live to be chic, there is no need to dig into the horns. Oh, by the way, Lao Bai, how is your movie, is it released yet?"

Lao Bai sighed and said, "Well, to be honest, Mr. Shao also knows what kind of director I am. To put it bluntly, I am a salty director." The ** lens can be packaged and sold in Japan. But they don’t understand me at all. I interpret life from the perspective of **. This is a movie with connotation and depth. Just like Mr. Shao said in "High-end Interview" In that case, there is something wrong with our review system.”

"Yes, there is a problem." Shao Shuaijun quietly wiped his sweat.

Lao Bai said more and more vigorously: "In the process of pursuing art, we can't always focus on whether the scene is naked or not. This is whether the picture is adulterated. Are blood and violence more harmful than adultery?" Big, sex is at best exciting, but violence is the source of crime. Why can violent scenes be released, but not sex scenes? Well, even if it is not possible, why not set up a classification system, we can position it as Tertiary movies, won’t this avoid many teenagers?”

"It makes sense." Shao Shuaijun agreed.

"As long as we don't establish a grading system, we can't say that our entertainment industry is open. Sex education has the same status as Chinese and mathematics abroad. Confucius also said that food, sex, sex, and Confucius all said that ** is a gentleman. Why do you want to delete and ban these contents now? Why can’t a large number of excellent movies be released normally in China? Why should Lust, Caution be deleted? Director Li An won the Oscar, does he not understand art? To put it bluntly, it is these old stubborn masters With the power of review, a group of people who don’t know how to pretend to know, steal power, they will not fail for a day. Our film business will not get up for a day!” Lao Bai became more and more excited as he spoke. Spit stars splash.

Zhang Huahua, who had brought tea just now, was scared away by the saliva.

Shao Shuaijun didn't know how to complain, at least, he rarely learned Chinese abroad.

"What Lao Bai said makes a lot of sense. Come on. Have a sip of tea first. By the way, Lao Bai. The movie hasn't been released, so what are you going to do? Haven't you planned any new movies?"

Lao Bai sighed again: "You don't know. "The Silence of the Birds on the Tree" took me a lot of effort, the movie was not released, and the nouveau riche who sponsored and invested had had enough of small stars and no longer invested in me. I I also looked for a lot of new investment directions, but to no avail, they actually asked me to shoot their autobiography, I choose! How does he play with women, how does he eat and drink, what a waste of art!"

"Then what?"

"And, oh, speaking of this, I have to express my admiration to Mr. Shao. Do you still remember when you told me that the short woman with two freckles on her face is my wife. I will make a film It was not screened, and no one sponsored it anymore. She was poor, she fed me, and helped me open a leather shoe stall in my hometown. Nothing to say, I met such a woman in this life, Lao Bai, I figured it out. Meaning, it’s not about your money or your profit, it’s no good if you don’t have money, I’ll kick you away immediately, finding such a woman is worth a lifetime.” Lao Bai’s words are sincere.

"Yes, it is not easy to have a woman who is sincere to you. You should cherish it." Shao Shuaijun nodded, and he was happy for Lao Bai to find true love. "By the way, sister-in-law is not here today?"

"Come here, I'm afraid to trouble Mr. Shao, I'll let her wait downstairs."

"Why didn't you invite me over together, Xiaohua, go and invite my sister-in-law."

"Oh, don't bother, there are too many chairs downstairs, she's not comfortable letting her come here. Miss Hua, don't bother."

"It's up to you, but I'll treat you tonight, call my sister-in-law, and have dinner together." Shao Shuaijun didn't force it, and he was not unfamiliar with Lao Bai's wife. He was a shy person who talked and laughed in a film crew before. Feeling really uncomfortable here.

Lao Bai smacked his mouth, hesitant to speak.

"If you have anything to say, just say it, Lao Bai, we are destined to be together, I know you must have something to do here, I will try my best to help if I can."

"Then let me tell you, I have a script, but I can't find the investment. It's not... I'm embarrassed. I want to ask Mr. Shao to see if he can invest. I know Mr. Shao is busy, so you can Look, let's forget it if I can't, I will go back to sell leather shoes in a down-to-earth manner, and stop thinking about it."

After receiving the script that Lao Bai took out from his briefcase, the first thing that caught his eye was a string of English and three Chinese characters.

imax-3d Yupu group.

Shao Shuaijun was almost spit out after taking a sip of tea. Just by looking at the name, he knew what the story was. Yupu Tuan is also a classic Fengyue film. Many versions have been shot in Hong Kong. It is reasonable for Lao Bai to want to shoot this subject, but unexpectedly, "imax-3d" was added in front of it. This is a challenge with Fengyue film. High tech.

Looking up at Lao Bai, Lao Bai seemed to know what Shao Shuaijun wanted to say, and explained: "Mr. Shao, my plan may look a little complicated, but it is actually not difficult to understand. In my "imax-3d Yupu In "Tuan", the story is more about the truth, this is not just a coquettish and sexy packaging, but I want to tell the audience through this period of practice of the human futon, it doesn't matter whether there is something to do, the important thing is that the true feelings are precious .”

Shao Shuaijun was speechless.

He just appeared on "High-End Interview" and acted as pure as a white lotus, expressing that he wanted to give the child a clean sky, so Lao Bai gave him a romantic film project. Wanting to refuse, but embarrassed, Shao Shuaijun thought for a while and asked, "What's the matter with this imax-3d?"

Lao Bai said energetically: "This is still inspired by "Nightman" and "Inception". Back then, I went to Heping Movie Metropolis to watch commercial movies with imax effects. The shock is unparalleled, and the heroes are like The stalwart is as tall as a mountain, and the fighting scenes seem to hit people's hearts. At that time, I was thinking that imax has such an effect, which can strengthen the impact of the movie. If it is added with the 3D effect, is it possible to make a movie What the movie wants to tell will stimulate the audience more strongly."

"so what?"

"So I have a plan for "imax-3d Yupu Tuan". I hope to use such a romantic theme to explain the truth of life. Through the shock of the scene, the audience will have a deeper understanding of what love is, and don't be fooled by it." ** Confused one's own heart, and missed the content of life that should not be missed."

Shao Shuaijun didn't know how to answer, so he smiled awkwardly: "Can I read the script first?"

This "imax-3d Yupu Tuan" tells the story of the scholar "Wei Yangsheng" who is good at calligraphy and painting, and has been indignant at King Ning's luxurious and domineering style for a long time. One day, Wei Yangsheng accompanied his friends to Tiefu for a blind date, but fell in love with Tie Yuxiang, a young lady from the Tie family, and they became husband and wife. After marriage, the two respected each other and fell in love with each other, but Weiyang gave birth to the bed and behaved very reluctantly. Over time, he inevitably had unreasonable thoughts.

A friend introduced Wei Yangsheng to King Ning, and Wei Yangsheng entered the Peerless Building of Ning Mansion. The Peerless Building is a treasure house managed by King Ning painstakingly. Driving pleasure cannot be obtained. The old man of bliss gave Weiyang Sheng the method of changing the device. Weiyangsheng was successful in the operation and felt elated. Unexpectedly, he and Tie Yuxiang both fell into King Ning's trap at this time.

In the end, Wei Yangsheng, who had gone through many hardships and lost his function, had an epiphany: "The happiest thing in my life was falling in love with you at first sight that day. I have been with so many women, empathy, sweet dreams, and what I have realized on that human futon. , It’s not the fetters of fame and fame, but true love is precious.” So Tie Yuxiang, who was locked with Xuantie, grew old forever, and stopped thinking about it.

After reading the script, Commander Shao Shuai let out a long sigh of relief. If you leave out the sexual part, the content of this script is indeed positive and profound, and it has a taste of going through the world and breaking through the mystery. Based on the attitude of seeking truth from facts, it is a good script.

"How is it, Boss Shao?" Seeing that Shao Shuaijun closed the script, Lao Bai asked expectantly.

Frowning, Shao Shuaijun said, "Good script."

There was a happy look on Lao Bai's face, but Shao Shuaijun said, "But do I think it's unrealistic? The mainland will never pass the review for this kind of subject matter, and can only go to Hong Kong and Taiwan to set up a project for filming and screening. Lao Bai, what do you think?" What about it? Besides, it is still in the imax-3d filming format, and it is estimated that it can only be shown in 2d and 3d formats. After all, there are no imax theaters in Hong Kong, Taiwan and the southeastern region.” (To be continued..)
