Director’s Legend

Chapter 341: 【Walk upright】

From August 27th to 29th, the last weekend of August, the North American box office chart, "Rise of the Apes" finally handed over the title, and this week only got 12 million US dollars. However, the overseas results are still so dazzling, with a total of 72 million US dollars, and the global box office totaled 630 million US dollars, which officially surpassed "Teddy Bear.

"Shao Shuaijun has become the best director this year. He alone earned nearly $1.3 billion in the box office this year and became the most dazzling director in 2010!"-"Hollywood Entertainment Repays".

"The man who rewritten the Hollywood pattern!"

Although "Time" did not use Shao Shuaijun as the cover character, it still has a detailed report on the impact of Shao Shuaijun's latest movie "Rise of the Apes" on Hollywood.

Since Warner Bros. brought "Harry Potter" to the big screen, the new line movie also brought "Lord of the Rings" to the big screen, and then Walt Disney brought "The Chronicles of Narnia" to the big screen. Screen. Hollywood studios have been looking for best-selling novels that can be put on the big screen.

It is a pity that not everyone can find such novels. As a result, Shao Shuaijun, an outsider, brought Summit Entertainment onto the track of rapid development with the help of "Twilight". The subsequent "Hunger Games" contributed to the bestseller. The trend of adaptation. This has directly led to the copyright fees for adaptations of best-selling novels around the world, which has taken a whole step up.

If the best-selling book is only a small change, then the acquisition of Marvel Comics and the launch of the Marvel Cinematic Universe Trio project are absolutely shocking. In the past, in Hollywood, Warner Bros. played Superman and Batman, Sony played Spider-Man, and Twentieth Century Fox played X-Men. It can be said that they are fighting separately.

Now Summit Entertainment has to integrate superheroes and turn the original skirmishers into regular troops. If this plan is successful, it can be said that the six major Hollywood will become the two-power war, Warner Bros. with DC, and Summit Entertainment with Marvel. .

Now "Iron Man 2" has just ended its release, and the global score of 625 million US dollars is gratifying, confirming the pace of the trio plan. "Captain America" ​​and "Thor" are all waiting, and Marvel's heavy blows made Warner Bros. nervous. The Batman trilogy directed by Nolan, originally "Batman: The Dark Knight" and "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises" were filmed at the same time, but the Cavaliers were released and received $1 billion in the box office. Two years have passed since the rise. There are no plans to release it yet.

It is to deal with the increasingly arrogant Marvel heroes and prepare to throw them at the right time to compete with Marvel superhero movies.

Moreover, Warner Bros. has sent someone to rewrite the Superman script, and the newly adapted Superman script has been named "Superman: Man of Steel".

This is all forced by Summit Entertainment.

In this year's total box office, Warner Bros.'s No. 1 position is no longer guaranteed. If the superhero loses again, where is Warner Bros.'s No. 1 face in the world?

Shao Shuaijun, a young man, entered Hollywood with his bare hands. No one would have thought that he would rewrite the entire Hollywood film market in less than four years. Peak Entertainment brings a little-known small company to the top six ranks, and this year is the top six!

Small companies look forward to it, and Warner Bros. is sitting on pins and needles, but it is Twentieth Century Fox who is really crying.

Warner Bros. is just a little nervous. In any case, they make money every year. It's nothing more than a problem of making more and less. With DC comics, they are not afraid of not having superhero movies. The future will change. Within ten years, they will be able to ensure a stable chair.

Fox was not so lucky in the twentieth century. Since it was acquired by the media tycoon Murdoch's News Corporation, there has been little support for Fox. Everything has to be carried on its own, and life is very frustrated.

"It is reported that Twentieth Century Fox has removed the vice president in charge of the film library. It was the vice president who was in charge at the beginning and sold all the copyrights of the "Planet of the Apes" series to Summit Entertainment. This is how Shao Shuaijun was born. The directed "Rise of the Apes" is a global hit!"-"The Sun".

"Avatar failed to go further. The box office of Wolverine was not as good as expected. The copyright of the Planet of the Apes series was lost. Twentieth Century Fox's stock fell this year, and the management urgently launched "Avatar 2" to rescue the market."-"New York" The Times.

"Stocks fell, and the planned new version of "Fantastic Four" was determined to abort. Twentieth Century Fox executives revealed that the copyright of Daredevil and Fantastic Four may return to Marvel Comics this year and next."-"Denver Post Newspaper.

News Exposure In the 20th century, Fox was the only one that could compete with Summit Entertainment. Summit Entertainment was all good news, it was all tragedy, and became the two extremes among the six. Strictly speaking, Twentieth Century Fox did not lose money. The production cost of "Avatar" was high and the box office was high, making a lot of money. "Wolverine" did not lose money, and "Rise of the Apes" did not come out, no one knew that "Planet of the Apes" had such value.

But the problem is that Fox's behavior in the twentieth century is always inconsistent with expectations. "Avatar" was originally a cost of 500 million US dollars, and even time spent 5 years of magic work. According to calculations by economists and filmmakers, the global 2.5 billion US dollars is the expected value, but 2.2 billion did not arrive. The same is true for "Wolverine". Experts estimate that it will break 100 million during the opening week, but only get over 80 million.

As for "Planet of the Apes", it is a disaster, it is a matter of vision. However, with Fox’s lesson, major companies have tightly covered their film libraries, and Fox has sacrificed himself and made a negative teaching material for everyone.

In short, during this period of time, "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" has stamped Twentieth Century Fox hard.

People who are in the early stages of the world are always stepping on others.

Summit Entertainment is to be an entertainment giant, and other film companies can only be trampled on.

The fall has not yet arrived, and Peak Entertainment has turned Hollywood upside down, stepping on other companies and taking the lead. And Shao Shuaijun also won the box office and numerous praises with his "Rise of the Apes".

In the eyes of reporters, James Cameron grinds one sword in five years, and Shao Shuaijun grinds five swords in one year. Silent battle with the king of the world, fight for quantity if you can't fight for quality! The confrontation between the old and the new generation is worthy of a big book!

Furthermore, Christopher Nolan is the king in the dark, domineering and deep, just like his movies, as charming as a whirlpool. However, Shao Shuaijun is the king of variety, with an eclectic style, and there is no muddling between changes, like the stars in the sky, dazzling. Gemini's competition on the same stage is also worthy of a big book!

Therefore, they desperately dig into these topics, setting off a storm of hype after another.

"I and Shao Shuaijun are friends. I think his thinking is at the level of genius. "Rise of the Apes" is a great movie. Shao Shuaijun is a role model for commercial directors." A reporter asked, Christopher Nolan was so. Answer how he views Shao Shuaijun.

After Shao Shuaijun learned about it, he reported to Li Toutao and accepted an interview with a reporter from Time.com. He touted Nolan: "Nolan's achievements are brilliant. His understanding of movies is profound and unique. He talked about his achievements in commercial films. Is groundbreaking and irreplaceable."

Cameron said in an interview: "I'm very happy to have a young director with such a high commercial achievement. I have a very big preference for technology. I heard that Shao also prefers technology. I think although we have not met, We will be friends."

Shao Shuaijun’s response is like this: "Cameron has always used technology to change the world of movies. His preferences have a huge impact on me. We have the same attitude towards technology. I look forward to working with him one day. I think I have a lot of ideas and I want to ask him for advice."

When the reporter asked about the duel of the kings of the old and new worlds and the twin stars’ fire merging, the three of them shook their heads at the same time: "I never compare what I should do, and make my favorite movies. All this is enough. ."

It can be said that since the release of "Rise of the Apes", the media's view of Shao Shuaijun has taken another step. In the past, everyone would advocate the Chinese director of the Three Musketeers. Now Shao Shuaijun has become a candidate for the king of the world and is regarded by Hollywood as a leader in the future world film like Nolan.

The flattery is endless, just like Shao Shuaijun's hope and care for his son now are endless.

"Wife, eat an apple."

Shao Shuaijun handed over a peeled apple.

"Don't eat, eat every day, I'm tired of eating." Li Xiuxiu sat on the rocking chair, enjoying the cool under the grape trellis. This grape trellis was planted before the villa was built. Li Xiuxiu liked the grape trellis very much.

"What can I do if I don't eat it? According to the doctor's instructions, how can my son's nutrition be enough without finishing the three apples today."

Li Xiuxiu was annoyed: "You know your son and son right now, and you have forgotten my wife before his son was born."

"How come." Shao Shuaijun immediately leaned over and slapped Li Xiuxiu's face, "Do you think I have a son and forget his wife? I'm afraid that his son will not get enough nutrition. If you absorb your nutrition, you will not get it. Nourished."

"Hate, you just don't care about me anyway." Li Xiuxiu acted like a baby.

"It's so wrong, I even refused Wang Zhonglei's invitation to drink me, and stayed at home to peel apples. It's because I know that my wife doesn't like eating apple peels. This is not a concern."

"Who wants you to stay? There are parents and eldest sisters, I can't find anyone who can peel the apple."

"Ouch, my dear wife, what can I do to prove that I care more about you than everything else?" Shao Shuaijun said helplessly.

"Um..." Li Xiuxiu thought for a while, "I want you to cut the apple into small pieces and feed me."

"Although it is troublesome, it's all a piece of cake for love!"

Shao Shuaijun immediately ran to find a tray, then cored the apples, cut them into small pieces, inserted a few toothpicks, and brought them over: "Haha, the delicious apple salad is coming! Come on, wife Open your mouth."

Li Xiuxiu was proud to eat apples.

Seeing Li Xiuxiu eating happily, Shao Shuaijun was also happy, and Xiao Shao in his stomach must be happy too.

"Wife, I made a poem for you to listen to?" Shao Shuaijun put down his plate, cleared his throat, and said, holding Li Xiuxiu's hand, "You are from Yuanmou, Yunnan, and I am from Zhoukou in the capital. Pulling up your little furry hand, Take a bite. Ah, love makes us walk upright."

After speaking, I kissed Li Xiuxiu's hand.

"hate."

Li Xiuxiu laughed and laughed. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!)
