Director’s Legend

() Erwang and Shao Shuaijun took the hammer together and smashed the word "23500000" on the ice sculpture. The flashing lights below flickered for a while, and the celebration banquet began. As a director, Shao Shuaijun is undoubtedly the target of reporters. Countless microphones are stretched out, and various questions come to him.

"Excuse me, Director Shao, "Buried Alive" is a movie you starred in. As a newcomer, you earned 20 million at the box office, and your acting skills have also been recognized by everyone. Will you continue to be an actor?" The media who participated in the celebration banquet all had a good relationship with Huayi Brothers, and their questions were relatively soft.

Shao Shuaijun thought for a while and said: "I am a director, and directing is my hobby and job. The reason why I acted as an actor in "Buried Alive" was because I couldn't find a suitable actor. Because of the salary, I have to act in person. I prefer to be behind the camera and guide others to act. Of course, there is no rule that a director cannot act, and who knows what will happen in the future."

"Excuse me, Director Shao. It is reported that the judges of this year's Magic City Film Festival are very optimistic about the movie "Buried Alive". Can you predict what awards "Buried Alive" will win?"

"Sorry, I'm not a judge, I don't know."

"I would like to ask Director Shao. It is said that the initial funding for "Buried Alive" came from a script you wrote and sold to Director Zhang Yimou in exchange. Can you tell us what kind of script this is and how it attracted Director Zhang Yimou? , and when will filming start?"

"This news can be dug up, the reporters are too good." Shao Shuaijun had to admire the skills of the reporters, but before Zhang Yimou released the script, there was a confidentiality agreement, so he couldn't disclose anything, so he had to say, "You should ask Director Zhang, I have nothing to say."

"Director Shao..."

Wang Zhonglei saw that the topic was getting farther and farther away, and he greeted loudly: "Okay, okay, the celebration banquet is about to be served, everyone is delicious." He pulled Shao Shuaijun and walked into the restaurant, ignoring the reporters.

"Let me introduce you. This is director Feng Xiaogang." Wang Zhonglei led Shao Shuaijun in, pointing to Feng Xiaogang who was sitting in the corner. Feng Xiaogang is a well-known director in China. Last year's "Mobile Phone" created a miracle at the box office and stole the show.

"Hi, Director Feng." Shao Shuaijun bent slightly.

Feng Xiaogang was very happy, and said with a smile: "You are Shao Shuaijun, you are really young, and I have long wanted to see you. I will have a good chat later."

Wang Zhonglei pointed to another middle-aged man with a round face: "This is director Teng Huatao." Teng Huatao is also a well-known domestic director. The most famous ones are the TV series "Snail House" in 2009 and the movie "33 Days of Broken Love" in 2011.

"Hello, Director Teng."

"Hey, Director Shao is fine too." Teng Huatao spoke very politely.

Wang Zhonglei then introduced a few more people, such as Ren Quan, Zuo Xiaoqing, Kong Yishan, Wang Yan, etc., who were all popular female stars at this time. This time, there were not many artists who came to the celebration banquet, and only the above-mentioned few accompanied them. The others were managers of Huayi Brothers, including Song Ke from Huayi Music, Hu Ming and Zhang Yanping from Huayi Finance, Huayi Brothers, etc. Fei Qi from the agency, Liu Xiaomei from Huayi Advertising, and others.

Shao Shuaijun nodded, not intending to make friends.

The banquet started amidst compliments. At first, everyone was very enthusiastic about Shao Shuaijun, or they were very curious, but Shao Shuaijun didn't talk much, it was very dull, and everyone's topics gradually turned to other aspects. Shao Shuaijun was also happy to be at leisure, eating his own food.

At a table not far away, Liu Sanxi and others have already started to drink together. This time with Shao Shuaijun, including Liu Sanxi, Anan, Sishui, Zebra, as well as the original makeup artist Li Yuanyuan and his apprentice Xu Hui, as well as the photography assistant Zhao Beiyang, of course, as the second appearance of "Buried Alive" The role of Liu Sanxi's wife also came.

Huayi Brothers reimbursed the round-trip air tickets. If you don’t come, you won’t come for nothing. They are all in the mentality of eating, drinking and having fun. It would be even better if they can still be spotted by big directors and the like.

While eating, a staff member of Huayi Brothers walked over quickly and whispered something in Wang Zhongjun's ear. Wang Zhongjun nodded lightly, and said to everyone: "Eat, Sister Hua is here, I'll go and greet you."

Hearing Sister Hua's name, among the people present, some had disdain written on their faces, while others were embarrassed, especially Ren Quan, Zuo Xiaoqing, Kong Yishan, Wang Yan and other celebrities, with embarrassing expressions.

Shao Shuaijun was also very curious, looking forward to Wang Jinhua's arrival. In her previous life, in 2005, Wang Jinhua brought most of Huayi's artists to Dengtian Entertainment and established Dengtian 18 Brokerage Company. In just over a year, she was able to compete with Huayi Brokerage and become the largest brokerage in mainland China. company.

The two mainland entertainment giants, Huayi Brothers and Dengtian Entertainment, both started to expand in the form of groups. At this time, Huayi Brothers had not yet established a group, but it already had many independent companies. Wang Jinhua worked for Huayi Taihe Brokerage Company. After switching to Dengtian Entertainment, there are also several companies. Wang Jinhua and Dengtian Group established Dengtian 18.

When Dengtian Shiba was the most prosperous, Shao Shuaijun's career had just started, he failed to join Dengtian Shiba, but joined Dengtian Shijiu brokerage company. Dengtian Shiba began to develop into Hollywood, but Dengtian Shijiu only valued one person, that is Tang Yan. This made Shao Shuaijun very depressed, not able to meet this legendary manager.

The atmosphere was somewhat dignified, only Feng Xiaogang and Teng Huatao talked about Zhenghuan, and they didn't care at all.

The others lost their composure more or less, which made Shao Shuaijun feel very interesting. In the entertainment industry of later generations, Wang Jinhua's reputation at the company level is not very good, especially when she defected from Huayi Brothers for the first time and divested Dengtian Pickup from Dengtian Group for the second time, which made many entertainment companies feel ashamed. I think this is an act of anti-bondage.

But from an artist's point of view, Wang Jinhua is one of the rare managers who cares about artists. He takes good care of the artists under his banner and has a vast network of contacts. This is also Wang Jinhua's confidence to dare to challenge big companies.

Soon, a middle-aged woman with a lot of aura, wearing a neat professional suit and a pink scarf, walked over talking and laughing with Wang Zhongjun.

"Sister Hua, you're here, aren't you busy with work?" Wang Zhonglei stood up to greet her, looking very enthusiastic, but Shao Shuaijun felt a little grinning no matter what he looked at.

Wang Jinhua and everyone present nodded with a smile, and patted Wang Zhonglei on the shoulder: "Xiao Leizi is still so handsome, and his credit for discovering such a good piece of jade for the company is indispensable."

This tone, as if the boss was praising his subordinates, made Wang Zhonglei smile with embarrassment. However, at this time, Wang Jinhua was not only the top leader and largest shareholder of Huayi Taihe Brokerage Company, but also the vice president of Huayi Brothers. He ranked ahead of Wang Zhonglei and had this qualification.

After teasing Wang Zhonglei with a smile, Wang Jinhua took the initiative to reach out to Shao Shuaijun: "You are Shao Shuaijun, the director of "Buried Alive". In the future, Chinese films will be revitalized by your generation."

"Hello, Sister Hua." Shao Shuaijun smiled reservedly.

"Mr. Wang, you said that, didn't you rule out me and Hua Tao? We are not old either." Feng Xiaogang shouted.
