Director’s Legend

() "Sister Xiuxiu, what do you think the company should do?" Shao Shuaijun felt that he was not a qualified reborn person, so he decided to refer to the advice of professionals.

Li Xiuxiu drank coffee leisurely: "That depends on how you view your career. To be honest, a manager likes you the most. I feel that I have no ambitions. I only want to make movies. I have no ambitions other than movies. You don’t have any requirements for the studio, and you don’t have any requirements for your own fame.”

"Am I so frustrated?"

"have!"

Li Xiuxiu said affirmatively: "In fact, if you put these qualities on ordinary people, you might live a very happy life, but don't forget, you are in the entertainment industry now. I followed my sister and learned more about the dark side of the entertainment industry. Do you know why my sister wants to leave Huayi Brothers? Not only my sister, Fan Bingbing and Zhou Xun have this idea."

"It should be the reason why you can be your own boss by starting your own company."

"It's just on the surface. In fact, being a boss is very bitter. I told my sister that if an artist wants to go solo, without the protection of a big company, the situation to deal with will be much more complicated, and it will take ten times more effort to do it." Work hard. But they still have to go out, and one of the big reasons is for freedom."

"Zi you?"

"Yeah, don't look at my sisters who are big stars now. They are very famous. In fact, they are not a money-making tool for the company. Today I will let you attend a reception, tomorrow I will let you attend an event, and the day after tomorrow I will help you pick up Make a TV series. As long as you can make money, who cares whether your artist is willing or not? If you listen to the company and help the company make a lot of money, then the company is your grandson in front of you. Once you are disobedient, the company will block you at any time and freeze it. Or, before your contract expires, they desperately order you. Such examples are not rare!"

Li Xiuxiu looked at Shao Shuaijun and said very seriously, "Ah Jun, we have been working together for more than half a year, I know you are a very pure person, and you have nothing but movies in your eyes. It is wrong for you to do this, don't look at you now It’s very prosperous, helping everyone earn a lot of money, without your own business foundation, you are like my sister and others, you have to be manipulated by others. Huayi Brothers are treating you well now because you help them make money. Once you have conflicts with them one day Now, they will still win over you like this? Think about it, what will you do if Huayi Brothers cheat on you behind your back?"

"The big deal is to switch to another company to cooperate, but this is unrealistic. I am also a shareholder of Huayi Brothers."

"Can you not mention the 5% shares? Does it have any decision-making power? Let me ask you, if Huayi Brothers blocks you, cuts off your distribution channels, does not provide you with artists to act in plays, or even embarrasses you during the film bureau review, Or the United Theater Company bullied you, what should you do?"

"It's so mysterious, isn't it all a matter of no shadow?"

Li Xiuxiu stomped her feet gracefully: "You, you, you have a little foresight, okay? There is always a banquet in the world. Unless you work for the second king for the rest of your life, you will have conflicts sooner or later. Look at your studio. And investing in movies, I don’t do anything, and I don’t have the ability to resist risks at all. You invited me here, what else do you want to do besides making me busy with some trivial things? Now, you want me to set up a company alone for a book …Ah Jun, give me a complete idea ok? If you don’t care about the future, I’ll go to and from work honestly. If you want the studio and the company to grow, give me a direction and don’t make me feel like I’m headless Like a fly, okay?"

This tone of voice was a bit sad and angry about his indisputableness, which made Shao Shuaijun feel ashamed. Wasn't Li Xiuxiu invited here to expand the studio and get rid of other people's constraints? As a result, Shao Shuaijun forgot about it as soon as the seven and eight incidents came out, and he still hasn't explained clearly how the studio develops.

Coming out of the coffee shop and walking on the streets of Phoenix, Shao Shuaijun was still thinking about what kind of life he wanted to live. God gave him a precious opportunity to do it again, so what should he do to live a life worth living?

In the United States in April, the chill left over from winter was still floating in the air. Li Xiuxiu couldn't help shrinking her neck and wrapping her coat tighter.

Shao Shuaijun put his hands in his pockets and walked unhurriedly.

It took a long time before I spoke.

"Actually, I also thought about setting up my own company, monopolizing investment, production, brokerage, distribution, publicity, and even monopolizing theater companies. But sister Xiuxiu, you also know that China's national conditions are different from other countries. Standard thinking is prevalent, human relations are deeply intertwined, private enterprises have just been opened up to enter the upper circle, and those large state-owned enterprises are still dominant. It is very difficult to occupy the right to speak. Now I am making movies and doing small investments , or even go to a foreign country to earn some money, to live the life I want, and to be a director, I am very satisfied."

While speaking, Shao Shuaijun raised his finger and pointed to a billboard on a building with a movie poster on it. In the poster, a man is running. Instead of the road, there are countless photos piled up under his feet. There are also countless photos floating in the sky. It is the poster of "Source Code". The man is Shao Shuaijun. Each photo represents a world and a scene, implying traveling through countless worlds.

"You see, the movie I'm making now has landed in the United States. My dream in the bottom of my heart is to make movies and keep making them. I'm taking these inspirations now, and one day I will create my own inspirations to shoot More and more good movies, let countless people wander in my movie world... This is the life I want to live.

You know, King of the World James Cameron is my idol, he has weirdness and a bad temper, it's hard for others to get along with him. He once opened the digital field, one of the four major special effects companies, but later, he was kicked out by his partner. He was married five times, and his wife couldn't stand him and divorced him again until he married the current one.

Leaving movies, he has never been a successful person, even in the movie circle, he may not be successful. He likes to burn money too much. He doesn't care about a movie, not in the unit of 100 million US dollars. Therefore, many people are discouraged from him. After "Titanic", I didn't get a movie for several years.

But he once said, I live very happily.

You know, I especially admire this kind of life, don't care about other people's eyes, concentrate on doing your own things, weaving dreams. In life, just be happy, there is no need to have everything. I started the company because I wanted to make movies, and I can make movies without restraint. Make me go bargain with a mask on, I really don't want to.

So, sister Xiuxiu, if you think I'm too naive, you can kick me away like Cameron did. Maybe, as soon as you kick me away, I will become the next king of the world. Ha ha ha ha! "

"What a cold joke!" Li Xiuxiu stood in place, looked at the running people on the poster, and then looked at the smiling Shao Shuaijun, who was like a sunny boy, and laughed silently, "But I believe that there are only pure people, pure people. If you like it, you can get the approval of the movie, and the approval of the audience, and you will become the next king of the world!"

Shao Shuaijun, you want to be the king of the world, then let me help you!

Don't care about the result, only care about the dream!
