Director’s Legend

After announcing the news of the "Fantasy Drifting of Youth Pi" with Li An, the media on both sides of the strait widely reported the news.

"The most outstanding directors from both sides of the strait will join hands to produce a classic movie!" This is the mainstream opinion of the media.

At the same time, some media said: "This time the cooperation of "Life of Pi" will definitely be one of the symbolic events of the great integration of the Chinese film industry in the future!"

Because Shao Shuaijun and Li An are the most famous directors in mainland China, and the other is the most famous director in Taiwan. The high status of the two parties determines that the significance of this cooperation will be far greater than reality. "News Broadcast" did not hesitate to introduce this news in one minute during prime time.

"Today, Dream Chasing Golden Harvest Entertainment Group, together with Summit Entertainment Group and Dream Chasing South Asia Film Company, announced the approval of the new film "Life of Pi" in Beijing. The film is adapted from the famous novel by Jan Martel, It tells a miraculous story that happened in a shipwreck. The film will be directed by the famous director Li An, and the famous director Shao Shuaijun will serve as the producer, and it is expected to meet with a large audience from the end of 2012 to 2013."

"Dream Chasing Golden Harvest General Manager Yi Jianmei said in an interview that the film is co-operated by two of the best Chinese directors. This is an attempt by Dream Chasing Entertainment to build a world film industry chain. In the cooperation of the two directors, we can explore a road suitable for the industrialization of Chinese-language films and realize the close cooperation of the entire Chinese-language film circle."

In January, the Cross-Strait and Hong Kong Film Directors Symposium was led by Li An. Driven by a group of people with lofty ideals, a manifesto was issued at the seminar to promote the development of Chinese-language films, form the industrialization of Chinese-language films, and promote the integration and rise of Chinese-language films.

Youth Pi is an attempt. The crew will shoot movies according to Hollywood production standards, recruiting Chinese-speaking filmmakers, and together in the process of creation, they will find out the production path suitable for Chinese-language movies. Li An will use Hollywood's consistent filming methods through this filming. Pass it to all the Chinese in the crew.

Shao Shuaijun will also be in the production process. Try to teach Hollywood's advanced models as much as possible.

Chinese filmmakers have never lacked artistry, what they lack is the exploration of industrialization of film, and what they lack is their own style. I hope to be able to be in this kind of Sino-US cooperative filming. Get some inspiration. See clearly how Hollywood movies are made. Knowledge of Chinese films. will be more profound.

After the news of the project approval, came the Chinese traditional festivals New Year's Eve and Spring Festival.

After returning to his hometown to celebrate the New Year for three days, Shao Shuaijun flew to the United States with a large family. The shooting progress of "Night Watchman" is about to hurry up. Because he will start directing "The Avengers" after a while, and he will also take time to participate in the production of Boys Pi, so he will be very busy.

However, with the company of his wife and children, Shao Shuaijun's enthusiasm was renewed and he quickly advanced the filming work.

Just like the prosperous development of Summit Entertainment, it is also advancing rapidly!

On February 14, Summit Entertainment and Paramount Pictures held a press conference.

At the meeting, Summit Entertainment announced the acquisition of Digital Realm, a special effects company owned by Paramount, at a market price of US$178 million. Summit Entertainment CEO Mitchell said at the press conference: "The acquisition of d2 is an integral part of Summit Entertainment's global strategy. D2 is a great special effects company. Being able to cooperate with d2 will definitely bring new opportunities to Summit Entertainment. leap."

On the same day, Summit Entertainment's official website released a message: "Summit Special Effects, a subsidiary of Summit Entertainment, will be merged into d2 as a whole, and merged with Chasing Dreams, a subsidiary of Dream Chasing Golden Harvest, to form Golden Harvest D2, which is the special effects company under Chasing Dreams Golden Harvest Company. Golden Harvest D2 will take the Chinese market as an opportunity to find a new way to rise.”

The former CEO of d2, John Textor, has been officially appointed as the CEO of Golden Harvest d2. He left a message on the official website: "d2 has been losing money for more than three years. We have strong special effects processing capabilities and are good at solving 80% of the problems in post-production. solve 20% of the problems in 3D. d2’s 3D technology research and development capability is the world’s top, and the use of Houdini (3D graphics processing software) is also the world’s top. But we have not achieved technical excellence in our operations This time, I am able to join a large company that is rising strongly in the world and move to an emerging film market with huge potential. All the employees of Golden Harvest D2 and I are full of confidence!"

Shao Shuaijun, who was filming, received the news of the successful acquisition of d2, and took the time to meet with John Textor, and had a semi-formal talk about the prospects of the special effects industry. From the reform of special effects technology to the future development direction of the film, we talked about everything, and the talk was quite pleasant.

Later, Shao Shuaijun posted a bib on his twitter and time bib: "John and I talked about the future development of Golden Harvest d2. We both believed that based on the Chinese market, it is the best way for d2 to transform. Chasing the future of Dream Entertainment There are a lot of movies to be produced, whether it is imax or 3D, a lot of special effects processing is required, Golden Harvest D2 will be a strong supplement for the company. Oh, by the way, the second filming of "Night Watchman" has been named "Night Watchman: Reflection ", the filming has reached the final stage, I am full of expectations for it!"

Several pieces of news were released one after another, which immediately disrupted the situation in the global film industry.

When "Time Magazine" voted for the 2010 person of the year, Shao Shuaijun lost to Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg by a narrow margin, and missed the year-end cover person. As a result, this week, the US edition of Time Magazine once again selected Shao Shuaijun as the cover character.

The inscription on the cover given by Time Magazine is: "His changes to the world are getting bigger and bigger!"

Since entering Hollywood single-handedly in 2006, based on Summit Entertainment, Shao Shuaijun has completely rewritten the pattern of Hollywood that has lasted for decades. Acquired Marvel Comics, impacted the top six, financed Lionsgate, topped the 2010 box office champion, planned to acquire MGM, and now acquired d2, one of the best special effects companies in Hollywood.

What Shao Shuaijun achieved may not have the facebook that Zuckerberg built. It has changed the entire way of socializing among teenagers, with such a huge impact and influence. But Shao Shuaijun's influence is continuous and far-reaching. In this era of global interconnection, whoever controls public opinion is the uncrowned king.

Undoubtedly, the youngest uncrowned king is Shao Shuaijun!

In the past, Summit Entertainment focused on movies, and its influence was limited, but this year it began to make frequent moves, which is to create a posture of a kingdom of public opinion. Time Magazine believes. The actions of Summit Entertainment are not limited to these few steps. Last year, Summit Entertainment made too much money.

Only by spending money can you continue to make money. Summit Entertainment must spend money in 2011.

"In the future that can be expected, this young man represents the 'world dream'. The impact brought to the United States and the world will become bigger and bigger. Such an outstanding young man is the trend of the times!" "Time Magazine" Finally, with such a concluding remark, the introduction to Shao Shuaijun ended.

Time Magazine's predictions were right.

Zuckerberg used Facebook to go public to gain unlimited wealth, and then began to acquire various companies. Build an internet empire.

Shao Shuaijun also obtained unlimited wealth through Dream Chasing Entertainment, and then began to buy entertainment companies on a large scale this year to build an entertainment empire.

The media was immersed in the clamor for the acquisition of d2, and the American media reported relatively few reports on this acquisition. d2 was losing money every year, and the acquisition was predictable. The domestic media reported frantically that there are no special effects companies in China, and it can also be said that there are no blockbuster movies. Now Dream Chasing Entertainment has finally started to show its power and acquired d2. In the future, this kind of world special effects giant will be a Chinese company.

How can you not be happy.

Only Dream Chasing Entertainment has the guts, and is still firm in its plans when the special effects industry is gloomy.

Establish a new electric technology research institute, reserve new film technologies, and acquire top special effects companies. These are big moves that have shaken the Chinese film industry.

But just when everyone thought that the acquisition of d2 was Summit Entertainment's biggest investment in the special effects industry, another blockbuster fell into the entertainment circle a week later.

"Shocking news! Summit Entertainment has signed a contract with George Lucas, the father of Star Wars, and the two parties jointly submitted a purchase offer to the US government. After acquiring d2, Summit Entertainment has set its sights on Lucas, who owns ILM The film industry, the ambition to integrate the special effects industry is clear!" - "New York Times" front page headline.

Originally, Summit Entertainment planned to release the news after the acquisition was confirmed, but after the "New York Times" accidentally obtained the news and disclosed it, there was no need to hide it. In the subsequent acquisition statement of Summit Entertainment, it was determined that Summit Entertainment would spend US$3.95 billion to acquire Lucasfilm in the form of half cash and half stock! "

"Apex Entertainment is back in a frenzy, buying Lucasfilm at a huge price, and intends to build a giant aircraft carrier in the special effects industry! It is reported that George Lucas will give up Lucasfilm in exchange for a 3.4% stake in Summit Entertainment, the second largest in the industry. Yu Shao Shuaijun and Mitchell Bruce have become Summit Entertainment's third largest individual shareholders! Lucasfilm will be on an equal footing with Marvel Comics, and will only report to Li Xiuxiu, the general manager of Dream Chasing Entertainment Group!" —— " Wall Street Journal front page headline.

"The New York Stock Exchange has confirmed that Lucasfilm is officially listed today, stock trading is suspended, and will wait for the acquisition to be confirmed before proceeding with the transaction." - "The Times".

It was a big earthquake that stunned everyone.

In just one hour, the news spread all over the world. As a well-deserved leader in the special effects industry, Industrial Light \u0026 Magic under Lucasfilm is definitely a symbol of Hollywood, surpassing d2 by more than ten times. And Lucasfilm is not only ilm, but also the famous "Star Wars" series of films that spread all over the world.

"80% of the transaction has been completed, and only the final review by the US government's antitrust organization is left. Lucasfilm will become a subsidiary of Summit Entertainment."

"Summit Entertainment held a press conference. Shao Shuaijun, the next generation king of the world, and George Lucas, the father of Star Wars, confirmed his attendance!"

The news can be said to have bombarded the whole world, and the whole world has paid attention to the upcoming press conference. (to be continued..)
