Director’s Legend

Chapter 283: [The new richest man in mainland China]

After the speech of New Electrotechnics, the new-born ceremony was basically over. Shao Shuaijun and a group of people crowded the vice premier in the car. The deputy prime minister has every opportunity to come to this shop, it is to give a lot of face, naturally will not stay for dinner.

After getting in the car, the vice premier rolled down the window and said to Shao Shuaijun: "The speech is thought-provoking. There are more generous and tragic people in the Chinese film circle. It is our luck. Xiao Shao, you have to lead the pursuit of dreams and do everything for Chinese movies down-to-earth The country will support you in the future."

"Please rest assured, the Prime Minister, we dare not do anything to chase our dreams."

"That's good, you all go back, I have to leave beforehand."

After sending away the Prime Minister, the leaders of the Radio and Television, the Ministry of Culture, and Beijing City also left one after another. Shao Shuaijun and Zhang Yimou took a few directors and went for a drink. They are all directors, no matter what the hobbies are, they always have similar languages ​​and can speak together. Order food and wine, and everyone will chat.

"Shuai Jun scolded happily and well today. In the past, we were always immersed in self-entertainment, and we all went into misunderstandings unknowingly." Zhang Yimou held a glass and said, "Our current movies are not booming. It’s a downturn. There are a lot of new cinemas, especially the Wanda Cinemas of Shuaijun. The momentum has been too fast in the past two years. It is the largest cinema chain in the country, but we have no movies."

Jia Zhangke said: "I remember the last time I went to the Xingmei Cinema, looked at the screening schedule, seven shows a day, "Transformers", "Painted Skin", "Inception", "Ice Age 1, 2", "Crazy Stone" and "Spider-Man" were rounded up by Shuaijun and Hollywood. This is not the release schedule, but the best test of a movie is good or bad. Just count them and count them."

"Lao Jia, what you said is not all right. Some movies are not bad, but they have no chance to be shown at all. There are not a few theaters that give the opportunity to show during the release period. What's more, when they are shot later, they will be thrown away. Okay. The audience has no chance to see it either." Wang Xiaoshuai said.

"Xiaoshuai, you will complain. First of all, you must know what you have made. When you make a literary film, you will be confused. Of course no one will watch it." Zhang Yimou said with a smile.

"Shuai Jun is not also a literary film, "500 Days with Summer", the editing is chaotic, the footage is lengthy, and it is not much smoother than ours. But this mainland is afraid that it will cost more than 200 million yuan. What do you think? , Anyway, no one showed us the movie."

Shao Shuaijun laughed. Wang Xiaoshuai’s grievances were not accumulated in one or two days. Many directors have grievances and complain about the problems with the film schedule. He casually said: "Don't complain. Although I own shares in Wanda Cinemas, it is also our main business of dream chasing, but the film arrangement is determined by the above. "500 Days with Summer" opened up a reputation in North America , Radio and Television saw a knife and did not cut before they could get enough film schedule. Besides, my editing relies on skill, not random cut, it is much better than yours."

Several people often play with each other, and it doesn't hurt to lose two sentences.

Wang Xiaoshuai was speechless, and then said: "Aren't you going to make a commercial film? How come you squeeze into the ditch of literary films and grab our jobs? Director Zhang's "The Hawthorn Tree Love", yours "He Shamo" "500 Days", after such a disturbance, the literary and artistic films we made will not be sold in the future, and even an excuse for shame is gone. If you make films that sell, can we only lose money?"

"In fact, what is a literary film and what is a commercial film is to make a story. It depends on which aspect you focus on. If you focus on telling stories, you are a commercial film. If you focus on reasoning, you are a literary film. It does not have to be Inception. This kind of special effects scene is a commercial film. The reason why commercial films are more successful may be because they put the truth in the story and accept the truth without knowing it. The literary film is too reasonable, and you reduce the story. . I feel that no one likes to listen to other people’s reasoning all day, except for the film judges."

Zhang Yimou laughed: "You are resentment. You have made so many blockbuster movies, but you just don't win the prize, haha."

Shao Shuaijun shook his beer: "It's good for me to make money. Anyway, I'm still young and I have more opportunities. By the way, Director Zhang, I recommended the two films of the Youth League last time, are they good?"

"The Night Shop" is a bit of the shadow of the stone you made back then. It’s a small-cost comedy. It’s okay to watch. It’s not realistic to expect it to make a lot of money. But it’s a good investment for the Youth League. At least it’s better than the messy movies of the previous two years." Zhang Yimou thought for a while and said, "Zhang Mo’s "A Beautiful Life" seems to have changed its name. It's called "No More Lonely". She didn't show it to me either. It’s not clear yet."

"The filming is not bad. With you as a great director as Lao Tzu, she has learned a lot. The filming is not hurried, not slow, and full of tension. The emotional drama is especially valuable." Jia Zhangke said.

"It just depends on her ability. If I don't have the ability, I just take care of it, and the audience won't buy it. I originally wanted her to learn from me for a few years. Who knew that when the Youth League came out, she kicked me away. "

"You have to give her a chance to show off. Maybe Zhang Mo is the female version of Shao Shuaijun."

"Haha."

Shao Shuaijun waved his hand: "Don't be me, I am arrogant, Zhang Mo can't learn, and it's best not to follow me."

"People are not frivolous and juvenile, some people want to be crazy but can't get crazy. You, like Wang Xiaoshuai, have been making movies for so many years, have you made money? If you have no money to make money, you can only be a warrior." Jia Zhang ridiculously belittled Wang Xiaoshuai.

Wang Xiaoshuai sneered: "You are not much better. With the money given by Lao Mei, you can make some kitsch Western movies. If Chinese directors were like you, they would have been ruined."

"I'm comfortable. I just take foreign money and make Chinese movies for foreigners. So what. I will shoot whatever foreigners like to watch, and give them political lessons by the way."

Drinking, bragging, and hurting each other, the meal is over, all busy people, there is not much chatting, leaving in a hurry. Shao Shuaijun also returned home, ready to continue the two-person world between him and Li Xiuxiu. He had to take advantage of this little spare time tonight and spend some time with Li Xiuxiu, and he would continue to be a trapeze tomorrow.

"How much wine I have drunk, I am full of alcohol, quickly change my clothes, go and wash." After opening the door, Li Xiuxiu could smell Shao Shuaijun's alcohol.

Shao Shuaijun laughed, and put his arms around Li Xiuxiu just sip: "I don't drink much wine, and I don't like to drink too much. When clinking glasses with Wang Xiaoshuai, I deliberately spilled a little bit, but I was not sure, and it spilled on my clothes."

"Oh, the tricks on the wine table are not at home yet?" Li Xiuxiu said angrily and funny, and gave Shao Shuaijun a pair of slippers to put on.

"Today I gave a speech and scolded several of their directors. I was not happy in my heart, so I wanted to think about putting me down on the wine table. Unfortunately, I got into trouble first. Jia Zhangke and Wang Xiaoshuai had a fight. I watched the battle and didn't succeed as a hero. After drinking more than three bottles of beer, I went to the toilet twice, haha."

While talking, Shao Shuaijun took off his shirt, revealing a body that is not very strong, but also a bit muscular. He is less than 1.75 meters tall and his figure is fairly well-proportioned. One practice is a standard inverted triangle, just too lazy to practice.

"You already have a complete video of your speech on the Internet, and I have watched it. It was very high-spirited, just offending people. After several years of work, you have denied it in a day. I am not afraid of Zhang Hongsen arguing with you, right? They report to the above, how much box office revenue has been added to the film market this year, and how good the results are? You are slapped him in the face."

"What do I do when I slap him in the face? I have to raise his whole family every year. I just don't want everyone to cover up. The movie is not well done. Why do you say that the movie is well done? When the audience is a fool. You count. How many domestic films are good-looking this year? You can’t always say that you are wearing new clothes naked. Someone has to tell the truth and expose the fact that they are not wearing clothes before they can learn to wear clothes."

Li Xiuxiu put away the dirty clothes, and said angrily: "Okay, all the crows in the world are black-haired, just like my husband is as white as a white rabbit, hey, what are you doing, go to the bathroom to take you off? Are you ashamed of your pants?"

Shao Shuaijun said with a shy face, "I'm an old husband and wife. Why are you embarrassed? Wife, put your clothes down and tidy up later, and wash them with me."

"Are you embarrassed? Wash it together."

"Come on." Shao Shuaijun said, grabbing Li Xiuxiu's wrist and dragging Li Xiuxiu into the bathroom.

Then there was a frank meeting, and the sound of water crashed.

...

On October 7, 2008, the weather was fine.

Shao Shuaijun, who was tired and bent over, flew to Hong Kong by plane early in the morning. After arriving in Hong Kong, he immediately discovered that his itinerary had been leaked, and hundreds of reporters surrounded him. Fortunately, Shao Shuaijun is now traveling with more than a dozen bodyguards and assistants, and he is walking around the hall, and the reporters are walking around with him.

"Dong Shao, Dong Shao, the Hurun Rich List announced today. You topped the list with 63 billion yuan in assets and became the richest man in mainland China. Hurun said that this is only a conservative estimate. Your actual assets must far exceed This number, can you tell us this is true?"

"Dong Shao, you are the richest man in the Mainland for the first time on the Hurun Rich List, and your wealth far exceeds the second-ranked 43 billion yuan, and you are only 22 years old this year. What is the secret that made you such a wealth accumulation? There are rumors that you are the spokesperson of the mainland government, please confirm to us?"

"Director Shao’s speech about your new electrical machinery research institute has been circulated across the Taiwan Straits. Some people praised you, saying that you have a heart of innocence, and some criticized that you deliberately devalued and discredited Chinese films and put all the efforts of the previous No, what do you think of these voices of praise and criticism?"

"500 Days with Summer" hit the world with 300 million U.S. dollars. A small-cost literary film has achieved such brilliant results. Director Shao, your magic is extraordinary. Can you tell me the reason for this success? "

Even with the protection of bodyguards, reporters continued to surround themselves, making a section of the road congested.

"What happened, the schedule has been leaked again." Shao Shuaijun complained.

Assistant Zhang Huahua smiled bitterly: "Boss, even if you are low-key now, you can't stop your charm. It used to be a little better. Now the Hurun Report is out, the flight attendants also know your news value and will definitely not help you It's a conservative schedule."

"Depressed! Xiaohua, give me the phone."

Shao Shuaijun picked up his mobile phone and called Li Xiuxiu: "Hey, wife, help me check how much money is in my personal account."

Li Xiuxiu's voice came: "It seems that it adds up to 1.8 billion yuan. Why did you think of checking the accounts?"

"So what, my itinerary today has been leaked again, and reporters are now surrounding me. So I want to buy a plane, a private jet."

"What plane do you want to buy?"

"It seems that the Airbus A380 is pretty good now, and the price is only more than one billion yuan. How about buying one? Then buy a small passenger plane and a helicopter. By the way, the Dream Entertainment Group is so large now, it has to be equipped For a special plane, you, the vice chairman and general manager, should at least be equipped with a special plane."

"Really planning to buy?" Li Xiuxiu's voice was a little hopeful and a little hesitant.

"If you have money, don't you need to do anything. Buy it, wife, you can arrange for someone to buy a plane as soon as possible. I'm too lazy to take someone else's plane anymore. It's not low-key at all."

Zhang Huahua looked at the bitter Shao Shuaijun on the phone, and was speechless for a while. Isn't it low-key to buy his own plane? You have to buy the largest airplane Airbus A380, and you have to buy several airplanes at a time. What a weird world view is this, that makes you feel that this is relatively low-key?

However, this seems to be quite good. The boss buys a plane, which means I bought a plane. Hey, I will have a special plane when I go out. I don’t have to work hard to book tickets and schedule the itinerary. I can fly whenever I want. it is good. Zhang Huahua thought triumphantly.

The plane was decided to buy, but this time, if Shao Shuaijun did not answer a few questions, it would be difficult to get out of the airport lobby.

Sighing and sighing, Shao Shuaijun took a microphone and said, "I don't know Hu Run, and how he knows how much money I have, because I have never calculated it myself, and the company does not pay dividends. I still use it now. My director costs to support the family. What about the Hurun Report, that is, everyone laughs, don’t take it seriously."

"Many subsidiaries of Dream Chase Entertainment Group, among them, Dream Chase Golden Harvest, a Hong Kong stock, has a market value of more than 70 billion yuan. Peak Entertainment in North America has estimated total assets of 1.5 billion US dollars, which is more than 10 billion yuan. With regard to the value of shares in subsidiaries such as Wanda Cinemas, economic experts have already judged that the total capital of Dream Chase Entertainment Group is about to reach 100 billion yuan. A group company with such value at the age of 22, Shao Dong, do you think your greatest secret to success? What is it?"

Shao Shuaijun frowned and said, "I'm lucky, and now my company has not reached 100 billion. How did Hu Run decide that I am worth more than 90 billion? I don't seem to have much of the total shares? Too exaggerated. Now! As for what you asked just now, I can only say that I interpreted my speech from the perspective of an angry youth, and whether I agree or not does not have much impact on me. Let’s talk about "500 Days with Summer", can Achieving such a good result is beyond my expectation. The trick to success is very simple. If you shoot with your heart, the audience will give you back. Okay, I'm still in a hurry. Can you please let me?" (To be continued. Please Search Piaotian literature, novels are better and updated faster!)
