Director’s Legend

() In this world, if you don't count the bosses of Dengtian Entertainment, the one who knows the most is definitely Shao Shuaijun. Before he was reborn, he signed a contract with Dengtian Shijiu Company under Dengtian Entertainment. It was because of Dengtian Entertainment's temporary replacement of the director that Shao Shuaijun got drunk and had a new life.

For this company, Shao Shuaijun has mixed feelings, including gratitude and resentment. Thankfully, the company at least saw his talent and approved the 27-year-old him as a director. The resentment is that in the end, because of unspoken rules, he was dismissed by the company as a director.

But in any case, China's entertainment giants absolutely cannot do without Dengtian Entertainment, and even Dengtian Entertainment acquired Hong Kong Golden Harvest, which was one step ahead of Huayi Brothers and became the first entertainment company in the mainland. Especially in the future, Dengtian Entertainment will start comprehensive entertainment, open up the entertainment industry chain, acquire Golden Harvest, and cooperate with Japan's Avex, which is ambitious.

Avex is a music company that shares the market equally with Sony in Japan, and it is also the major shareholder of Du Li, a South Korean company, which is of great benefit to Dengtian Entertainment's market development in Asia. Although Golden Harvest is no longer its glory, it is still the film company with the most overseas influence in the entire Greater China region.

It can be said that before Shao Shuaijun's rebirth, Dengtian Entertainment had already completed the layout of the world film market. For such an entertainment giant, it is natural to go online. Shao Shuaijun was a little concerned, but he also understood that the cooperation Li Xiuxiu said was in his own best interests.

"Sister Xiuxiu, you can do whatever you want, I trust you."

Li Xiuxiu raised her eyebrows: "Are you afraid that I will sell you for money?"

"It's fine if I sell it, so I don't have to worry about these annoying things. I'll just be a part-time worker. Whoever pays me will help make movies. I'll be the next James Cameron, haha."

"I've convinced you, I have no ambitions. But it's good, I have a crappy boss, so I can show my talent. Ah Jun, you can make movies with peace of mind, and I'll take care of the company's affairs."

...

The box office of "Source Code" has been confirmed in North America and overseas in Asia. Within a few days, Huayi Brothers brought an answer. The box office of 98 million in the mainland has been confirmed and cannot be changed. He and Media Asia Variety agreed to share according to the standard of breaking 100 million, that is to say, Shao Shuaijun does not need to take out another 5% of the share.

However, neither of the two is willing to answer what the total box office is after all.

After sharing, Shao Shuaijun received a share of 7 million yuan, and Huayi Brothers privately gave 2 million yuan as compensation for reducing the box office. If calculated in this way, the total box office of "Source Code" in the mainland should exceed 150 million. It was originally another movie with a box office of 100 million yuan, but because of millions of profits, it was abruptly squeezed out.

At this time, ticket checking in domestic theaters was done manually, and it was easy to fool the box office. Shao Shuaijun had no choice but to reason. I can only pinch my nose and suffer the loss of being dumb. In the end, relying on "Source Code", the total income of the studio was 46 million yuan, excluding the previous investment of 5 million yuan, the net profit was 41 million yuan.

More importantly, Shao Shuaijun's name has been engraved in the history of Chinese movies. The most popular director in the mainland has a global box office of 800 million, which is 100 million higher than "Hero". However, after hearing rumors, Miramax Films, which bought the copyright of "Hero", is also planning to arrange for "Hero" to be released in North America in the near future. At that time, it is hard to say who will be the king of the mainland.

The three companies Huayi, Bona and Media Asia jointly held a grand celebration banquet at the Kunlun International Hotel. Not only Liu Yifei, Fan Bingbing and Huang Bo gathered together, but also countless well-known directors and stars came to join in.

The ice sculpture with the word 800 million was shining brightly, Shao Shuaijun was expressionless, sandwiched between Wang Zhonglei, Yu Dong and Zhuang Cheng, smashing the ice sculpture. When everyone met, both Yu Dong and Zhuang Cheng seemed to have forgotten about reducing the box office, and their smiles were brilliant. Only Shao Shuaijun couldn't squeeze a smile.

Crash!

The ice sculptures shattered into powder, and the reporter's flashes kept flickering.

Soon, long guns and short cannons stretched out.

"Director Shao, with a global box office of 800 million and becoming the most successful director in the mainland, what do you think you want to tell everyone?"

Shao Shuaijun had a straight face: "I'm not the most successful, so I have nothing to say."

"Director Shao, with the success of "Source Code" in North America and Asia, it is said that it is already planning to enter the European market. Then, Director Shao, do you have any plans for the next film? Will it be a bigger investment? Will it focus on the North American market?"

"I have no new work plans for now."

"May I ask Director Shao, what do you think about the box office of "Source Code" not exceeding 100 million yuan in China?"

"You should ask the investors."

"So, Mr. Wang, Mr. Yu, Mr. Zhuang, what do you think?"

Yu Dong said with a smile: ""Source Code" is a very successful commercial science fiction film. It can earn 800 million box office. This honor is indelible. As for the domestic box office, I can only say that the box office cannot represent everything. The high reputation of "Source Code" can already explain the success of "Source Code".

Zhuang Cheng also said with a smile: "As one of the investors, Media Asia is very happy to participate in "Source Code". The success of "Source Code" proves that the cooperation between Hong Kong and the Mainland is a model of future success. If possible, we hope to launch more co-productions."

"Excuse me, Director Shao, there are rumors that you have conflicts with Feng Xiaogang, is this true?"

Before Shao Shuaijun could answer, Wang Zhonglei rushed to say: "This is a non-existent thing. Feng Xiaogang and Shao Shuaijun are both co-directors of Huayi Brothers. There is no conflict between them. I hope the reporter will not make false assumptions."

"But at the college student film festival, Feng Xiaogang won the award. Why didn't Shao Shuaijun applaud?" The reporter pointed out sharply that when this scene was broadcast, it caused quite a stir. It's just that neither party was interviewed by reporters, so nothing happened.

Wang Zhonglei didn't know how to answer, Shao Shuaijun suddenly said: "Director Feng Xiaogang and I don't have any friendship, we are very strangers, so there is no conflict. The reason why I didn't applaud was just because I was too lazy to move."

"Don't even do the necessary etiquette if you are too lazy to move? Or is it just because he is Feng Xiaogang that you are too lazy to move, but you applaud everyone else."

"Sometimes I'm too lazy to move, and sometimes I'm more diligent. Why are there so many?" Shao Shuaijun said with a straight face, and said angrily, since he came here, he has been in a bad mood. First, seeing a few hypocrites, I panicked, and now I was picked on by this reporter. Shao Shuaijun really wanted to ask this reporter if he was a fool. Feng Xiaogang said so many bad things about him before, but he didn't applaud him. Even a fool could see that the two of them were not on the right track. As for asking the bottom line?

Shao Shuaijun was upset, grabbed the microphone and said, "Today is the "Source Code" celebration party, please ask more about "Source Code", okay?"

Click, click, the flashes flickered, and another round of long guns and short guns.
