Director’s Legend

"First of all, thank you for your applause for making me feel at ease. I can direct a movie. To be honest, I am very emotional. I have only directed TV series before. On the night of last year’s Golden Horse Awards, I was directed by Shao Shuaijun and Huang Bo and Guo Tao had a meal together. A Jun said, I have an idea, or you can come to make a movie. A few brothers made a fuss, so they made "People on the Road". Thinking about it now, it's really amazing, thank you I won’t say much, thank you for your support."

At the end of the premiere, Shao Shuaijun returned to Hengdian to continue filming "Painted Skin".

At the same time, the data of "People on Journey" are also passed on every day.

Relying on the good reputation of the premiere ceremony, Shao Shuaijun's screenplay was already the top spot. After the movie was released, it immediately got off to a good start. Throughout August, there was only one blockbuster film, Steven Spielberg's "War of the World", which was released for a week and a half and has already won 38 million box offices.

Apart from that, there are no large-scale movies.

After all, Dengtian Entertainment is a newly established company. No matter how strong Wu Kebo's network is, it has not obtained a high film schedule for "People on the Road", only 25%. However, Sunday's box office still won 6 million yuan, which is a good start for a comedy with no big stars at a small cost. A week after the release, the gross box office was 24 million, and the big sales have been confirmed.

With a good mood, Shao Shuaijun and Zhao Wei attended the 11th China Radio, Film and Television General "Film Huabiao Award" awards ceremony. In the capital, Shao Shuaijun met Ning Hao, who also came to the award ceremony, and Liu Yifei. Ning Hao’s previous unfamiliar work "Green Grass" was nominated for the Excellent Digital Film Technology Award, and "Crazy Racing" won Nominated for outstanding feature films.

Zhao Wei came because he was nominated for the Outstanding Actress Award. Liu Yifei came as the guest of honor tonight. She came yesterday and participated in the Feitian Award for the TV series. It seems that she did not win.

As for Shao Shuaijun, he received a lot of nominations for "Source Code", including five nominations for Excellent Feature Film, Market Development Award, Excellent Co-production (Because Hong Kong Media Asia is one of the investors), Excellent Feature Film Technology Award, and Excellent Director. Among them, the market development award is not nominated, that is to say, "Source Code" has won the market development award for its excellent overseas box office.

As an award hosted by the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television and China Film Group, the Huabiao Award can be said to be an official authoritative award. Of course, the consistent style of the Huabiao Award is the fruit of everyone standing in a row. The official word is correct, and the authority is right.

To celebrate the century of Chinese film, many old artists came to the scene, and Shao Shuaijun had to say hello before, and he was tired. Shao Shuaijun was the first to accept the award for the Market Development Award. Facing the camera, as well as the stars and audiences of the entire Beizhan Theater, he held the award certificate and trophy and expressed his thoughts.

"Thanks to the organizer for presenting this award to "Source Code" to me. As a Chinese director, I am proud that "Source Code" has achieved good results. I will continue to work hard to spread Chinese movies to the world."

The speaking style is always simple and clear, or not nutritious.

Then, the Excellent Feature Film Technology Award was won by "Ambush on Ten Sides", and "Source Code" missed a city. Ning Hao's "Green Grassland" also did not win the Excellent Digital Film Technology Award.

Next is the outstanding co-production film, a total of three films won awards, "A World Without Thieves", "New Police Story" and "Source Code". This award is not awarded to the director, but to the filming unit. Shao Shuaijun applauded from the audience. Wang Zhongjun won two awards alone. Both "A World Without Thieves" and "Source Code" were invested and issued by Huayi Brothers.

Subsequently, Zhao Wei and Zhang Ziyi both won the Outstanding Actress Award.

Did Shao Shuaijun get the award for excellent director? Lu Chuan and Yin Li both won the director award.

And the last item of this awards ceremony, the Excellent Feature Film Award, a total of 20 films were nominated, and 10 of them were awarded. Ning Hao with "Crazy Racing" and Shao Shuaijun with "Source Code" won this award. The ten directors came on stage together, standing side by side, it felt like children were sharing candy, everyone had a share.

If it were not for the purpose of leaving a good impression in front of the leaders of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, Shao Shuaijun would not be willing to be hot. It would be boring to participate in such so-called official awards. There are ten award-winning films in one award. Isn't that nonsense?

After the awards, the Wang Zhongjun brothers invited guests at the hotel. Shao Shuaijun, Ning Hao, and Lu Chuan, as directors of the Huayi Brothers, had a meal together. Although the two sides were a little nervous after the establishment of the Dengtianshuaijun, with the start of the shooting of "Painted Skin", Huayi Brothers should invest in the same way. Therefore, the relationship on the surface is cordial again.

After drinking half-heartedly, everyone talked about the last fight. Although the media didn't mention it much, in the circle, the gossip basically spread. Even Ning Hao, who was filming "Golden Robbery" by Yuan Zai Modu, called to express condolences to Shao Shuaijun's injury.

"Didn't you talk to Lao Qian last time about Huang Qunfei's problem? Lao Qian later told me about it. I inquired in secret, this Huang Qunfei is really a bit dirty." Wang Zhonglei burped.

"How to say?"

Wang Zhonglei shook his head: "Xiao Shao, just listen, don't ask anything. Huang Qunfei, isn't this Huang Qunfei, the chief assistant of China Film Import and Export Corporation? He is the leader of the old factory and decided to invest in Painted Skin. , Is the leader of the joint venture factory. In a word, there is a big struggle in China Film, which has spread to Painted Skin. Some people want to get rid of Painted Skin and then pull down a few leaders."

"Let's not try to confuse this kind of thing. The joint venture factory of China Film has greeted Huang Qunfei and told him to be honest. Gao Linbao has also been warned and he will not dare to talk nonsense again. To make a movie with confidence, the crew, Lao Qian, or Yang Hongtao can all rely on. Whoever makes trouble, just fight." Wang Zhongjun dipped his wine and ordered it on the table, "We have all the relationships in place. The biggest job now is to ensure that you make good movies."

"With Mr. Wang's remarks, I'm relieved." Shao Shuaijun nodded. He was actually very annoyed by this boring struggle. Someone solved it, which was very good.

"Come on, drink."

Cang Dang, drinks overflowing...

After the Huabiao Award, life continues and the movie continues.

The box office of "People on the Road" is also continuing. Although it did not reach the crazy level of the crazy series, it still won 16 million box offices in the second week, and the total box office accumulated 40 million. A big profit is inevitable. At this time, "Hero" was released in North America. In the first week, 2031 theaters won $17.8 million and became the champion of the week.

This is the first time a mainland director won the next week's championship in North America. For a time, "Hero" was unparalleled in the limelight, and Zhang Yimou's reputation was in full swing. The title of the king of the mainland was crowned to Zhang Yimou mercilessly by the media. As for Shao Shuaijun, the king of the mainland before, the media agreed that Shao Shuaijun still has a long way to go.

"It's still very long, really?"

Shao Shuaijun didn't know either, but "People on a Journey" is weak in counting money.
