Director’s Legend

"Rise of the Planet of the Apes" is a reinterpretation of the classic series, which is very difficult and involves the most advanced expression capture technology. This is a movie that Shao Shuaijun cannot give up. "Teddy Bear" is an R-rated comedy, with great reputation and box office. It is an excellent movie that can start a series, and it is also hard to let go.

After all the calculations, the only thing Shao Shuaijun can let go of is "The Hunger Games". With the existence of the original work, no matter who adapts and directs it, it can be a big hit at the box office. Moreover, Shao Shuaijun has already finished the script of "The Hunger Games" for a long time. If he just invites a director, he will be able to complete the task excellently.

After summing up everything, Shao Shuaijun passed the script of "The Hunger Games" to Mitchell Bruce, asking him to choose a director in Hollywood to direct. As for himself, he contacted producer Luis Renard.

"Louis, have you been safe recently? I have finished filming in China, and now I am preparing to start filming "Rise of the Planet of the Apes". Now you will take on the casting task."

"Of course, I've been waiting for a long time, and I have drafts for the main actors myself."

"Oh, and, I still have a script called "Teddy Bear". You can get it from Summit Entertainment's script library. I will direct these two films at the same time." Shao Shuaijun said again.

"Directing two films at the same time?" Lewis asked in surprise.

Shao Shuaijun explained with a smile: "I drafted and conceived these two movies a long time ago, and I have prepared enough shots and materials. It will be quite easy to shoot now. And "Teddy Bear" is very simple, I will choose more Several assistant directors. Share tasks for me, and my main energy will still be devoted to "Rise of the Planet of the Apes."

"Since you have made your decision, well, I will prepare for the casting of these two films as soon as possible."

"Then please, I will go to the United States two days before Christmas, one month should be enough time for the crew to prepare." Shao Shuaijun finished and hung up the phone. For the sake of money, for the superheroes, now he has decided to risk his strength. Directing two films at the same time, a rare crazy move.

With several versions of promotional videos, they landed on major websites one after another.

"Old Boy" is here!

On Sunday, November 29, 2009, in the newly built Golden Harvest CBD Movie City in Beijing. A grand premiere takes place. Now the domestic film circle has formed a practice. A grand premiere ceremony is held before the release, and a luxurious celebration banquet is held after the painting is finished. It is hard to tell who started it.

Anyway, almost all of Shao Shuaijun's films have experienced these two things, and this time is no exception.

The weather in Beijing is not very good. Dry also often blows sandstorms. In the past two days, Shao Shuaijun has gotten a little angry. Mouth ulcers were serious, so he didn't greet the guests at the door, and just sat in his seat and waited for the movie to start. Wang Zhonglei waited for old friends to come over to say hello and chat. Shao Shuaijun pointed to his mouth, indicating that he was in so much pain that he couldn't speak.

"Old Boy" is a nostalgic film, it uses 35mm film, and it is not made in 3D or imax format, so the hall for the premiere is not very big, it can accommodate 500 people, usually celebrities and entertainers, usually reporters, and the remaining more than 100 people The talent is the audience who grabs the tickets.

Half an hour later, the movie starts.

After the logos of Guangdian Longbiao and Chasing Dream Golden Harvest ended, the screen flashed and appeared on a talent show stage. Shao Shuaijun was wearing a white shirt and black pants, carrying a guitar; Huang Bo was dressed as an MJ, wearing a black suit and White gloves. The two stood in the center of the stage like this, with solemn expressions.

Wow, the screen went black, and the subtitles slowly appeared: "Starring: Huang Bo—Wang Xiaoshuai, Shao Shuaijun—Xiao Dabao."

The subtitles faded, and the screen reappeared, showing Guo Tao slouching, opening his mouth and asking, "What do you do?" Chi Guoguo's contempt was in his tone.

The screen went dark again, and the subtitles appeared: "Starring: Xu Zheng——Bao Xiaobai, Liu Shishi——Liu Luyao, Zhen Zhen——Hao Fang."

The subtitles faded, and there was another scene, a close-up of Sun Li, who sneered and said, "How old are you, why do you have wrinkles on your faces?"

"Friendly guest appearances: Guo Tao, Sun Li, Deng Chao, Li Bingbing—judges of the contest, Wenwen—classmate A, Peng Bo—the noodle guy, Yue Xiaojun—the construction site guy, Liu Gang—the hairdresser..."

When the picture appeared, Deng Chao smiled like a fox: "Do you know that you look very old? You are indeed very old. You are the oldest here?"

Subtitle: "I would like to dedicate this film to MJ, to all those who have pursued their dreams, pursued their dreams now, and will pursue their dreams in the future. Dreams, like classics, will never fade with time, but will become more precious .”

Another close-up, Li Bingbing shook his head and asked, "Do you think you will be popular?"

Clap, the screen went completely dark, and after a few seconds of waiting, five large characters appeared: "Director—Shao ​​Shuaijun."

Then the three words "old boy" appeared in the sky above an old-fashioned school. Amidst the jingling of the get out of class bell, there was a burst of shouts: "Here we come." The picture swooped down from the sky and rushed into the corridor .

Then I saw the pink and tender Shao Shuaijun, with parted hair, leaning against the corner of the staircase turning, posing with his guitar in his arms, slicking his hands with saliva, and smoothing his hair. Xu Zheng and Wang Xun (four eyes in the stone) are also as pink and tender as middle school students, gesturing on the stairs. As soon as the three of them appeared, there was a burst of laughter in the cinema.

I have to say that the images of Xu Zheng and Wang Xun make people laugh.

Amidst the laughter, Liu Luyao, the school girl played by Liu Shishi, went downstairs gracefully with her schoolbag on her back. When passing by Shao Shuaijun's corridor, Shao Shuaijun immediately talked about the guitar flirtatiously, and sang a song: "Thank you for the love you gave me, this life and this life I don't forget. Thank you for…"

And then...Liu Shishi wore earphones and passed by without looking back.

Xu Zheng and Wang Xun sighed, and Shao Shuaijun tossed his hair melancholy, which caused a burst of laughter in the cinema.

This episode is all about school life in high school. Xiao Dabao, played by Shao Shuaijun, is the leader of the gangsters among the students. The main tasks of his student life are to show love to the school belle and bully his classmates. Every time the school belle ignores him, he will intensify the bullying of the few classmates who hang out with him. Especially Bao Xiaobai played by Xu Zheng.

Carefree in student days, pass notes during class, and fight around after class. Stealing the breasts of female classmates, peeking at pornographic pictures, playing pranks on each other, flashing quickly in the beautiful music melody. It made the audience laugh out loud, and they couldn't stop laughing.

One day, Xiao Dabao followed the school belle and came to the playground. I discovered Wang Xiaoshuai played by Huang Bo. Is coquettish ass-twisting imitating Michael Jackson dancing.

"Bring the car over here." Xiao Dabao, who was hiding behind the pillars of the teaching building, said to Bao Xiaobai without looking back.

"There is still a car?" Someone in the audience asked curiously.

Then, as soon as the camera turned, a green leather scooter was being pushed by the hem of the bag, and there were four words in chalk on it: "Love the Environment". It turned out to be a school garbage truck. Laughter in the theater. In the movie, Xiao Dabao jumped directly into the garbage truck. poked his head out. Constantly waving: "Drive forward, get closer."

Then, little by little, they pushed towards Wang Xiaoshuai and Xiaohua's place.

Then Xiao Dabao saw Wang Xiaoshuai dancing to a song, and the school belle approached Wang Xiaoshuai. Then with a faint smile, he took out a cassette from his pocket. Xiao Dabao was heartbroken, and gritted his teeth and spit out three words: "Wang Xiaoshuai!" Bao Xiaobai also gritted his teeth sadly.

The scene changed, Xiaohua smiled brightly and gracefully, and handed the tape over.

Huang Bo played Wang Xiaoshuai, whose intoxicated heart almost stopped beating.

"Wang Xiaoshuai." The school girl said in a sweet voice, "Hao Fang asked me to give it to you."

Hao Fang, played by Zhen Zhen, hides behind another pillar. Her body size is estimated to be two to three hundred catties, and she smirks shyly.

"She asked you to tell me, dance well, I hope this tape can help you." Xiaohua handed the tape over.

Xiao Dabao in the distance mistakenly thought that the school belle was interested in Wang Xiaoshuai, and said in a crying voice, "Go away!"

Then it was Xiao Dabao who vented his anger on Wang Xiaoshuai, and took a few classmates to kidnap Wang Xiaoshuai to the main road of the school. The two held Wang Xiaoshuai's arms and leaned against the wall. Then Bao Xiaobai hurried over and said, "Here we come."

The school girl and a few female classmates just came over, Xiao Dabao smiled evilly, took out a trumpet and played it, which attracted the attention of the female students, and immediately took off Wang Xiaoshuai's pants.

Huang Bo, whose key parts were mosaic, howled in pain.

The female students were surprised at first, but then lowered their heads and sniggered, looking at the mosaic from time to time.

"I'm not going to live anymore, I'm not going to live anymore. I can't live anymore! Fuck you, Xiao Dabao!" Wang Xiaoshuai yelled.

Amidst Wang Xiaoshuai's roar, the music of "Sixteen-Year-Old Flower Season" sounded, and another quick description of school life, the fat man kissing his female classmate, Wen Zhang urinating on the wall, Yue Xiaojun with his face covered in notes, There was also Gao Zhisheng who was knocked to the ground and crushed under the table.

"Whistling freely, making self-made jokes. Repeating a thousand times chicly, using loneliness as seasoning.

The sky outside is so narrow, my ideal is higher than the sky. The outside world is very wide, and I want to know everything.

In this colorful season, make up a song and sing to yourself. Find a dream to feel the mood, in fact, everything is hazy.

Embrace the rising sun and let hope fly. Oh, sixteen, sixteen. "

At the end of the song, Xiao Dabao smiled wantonly with a cigarette in his mouth. The students scrambled to light their lighters to light a cigarette for Xiao Dabao, and then said in their mouths: "Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you."

Xiao Dabao lit the cigarettes with the lighter, but he didn't smoke. Instead, he blew out the lighters one by one like blowing out a candle. This is Xiao Dabao's sixteenth birthday.

The opposite of Xiao Dabao's happiness is Wang Xiaoshuai. In front of his favorite school belle, Wang Xiaoshuai exposed his little brother, almost ashamed to live anymore, hiding in the dormitory, crying silently. There was a full moon in the sky, and it seemed as if he heard the laughter of female classmates covering their mouths.

At this time, a ray of moonlight came in and shone on the poster beside the bed. In the poster, MJ is dressed in shiny clothes, stalwart and confident.

Wang Xiaoshuai stared at mj, momentarily bewildered.

The time when I was sixteen was absurd, and the blooming season of sixteen was full of pain and joy. (to be continued..)
