Director’s Legend

0131 【Birthday Party】

"I'm a pure man. I don't need to talk about this issue. Liu Yifei and I are also pure. Don't just believe gossip. As for why "Painted Skin" has not been finished yet, I started a new movie, mainly because of too many inspirations. After it came out, I couldn’t take it back. "Painted Skin" was produced in Hollywood with special effects, supervised by the production team and the director team, and I will fly to the United States every month to review it in person. It is definitely produced with heart."

Shao Shuaijun thought for a while, and avoided the company's topic: "As for why "33 Days of Broken Relationship" is a female perspective, the main reason is that I want to study the character of girls. Starting from Du Lala, I have received some criticisms, and it is true that I can't do it very well. Good grasp, falling in love should be a further attempt. I always think that a director, no matter what gender you are, you have to understand people of all genders, so that you can easily deduce what each character in the movie brings. thinking. I’m always learning, so to speak.”

"Director Shao, tell us what kind of movie "33 Days of Broken Relationship" is. Is Li Bingbing the heroine? Are you the hero?"

"Breakdown is a healing urban romantic comedy. This is how I define it. It's about falling in love, but it's more about discovering the beauty that we haven't found before through falling in love. I believe that after reading this Movies, especially those who no longer believe in love, can regain their confidence. As for me and Li Bingbing, we just made cameo appearances, and the real hero and heroine are other people.”

"Who is it?"

"Liu Shishi and Wen Zhang."

"Uh, Master Liu, we know who Wen Zhang is?"

"A newcomer."

"That is to say, there are no big-name stars? Then, can you guarantee its box office?"

"I just promise." Shao Shuaijun said something domineering, and then raised his wrist to check the time. It was already past five o'clock in the afternoon, and he was going to attend a birthday party for the daughter of a vice minister of culture in the evening. "Okay, today's interview This is the end, we will talk again when we have a chance in the future.”

After speaking, surrounded by assistants, he left. The driver was Liu Sanxi, and now he has been promoted to the logistics director of Chasing Dream Entertainment, but occasionally he will drive for Shao Shuaijun himself when he has nothing to do. The car is a Mercedes-Benz S600, a luxury version of more than 4 million. Now that Shao Shuaijun is a boss, the car needs to be upgraded.

Changed into a suit at the company, picked up Li Xiuxiu, and drove directly to the hotel.

Speaking of which, the dinner was a bit sudden. Yesterday, Shao Shuaijun received a notice from Zhang Juan to let him attend the dinner. Before that, he didn't know the deputy minister of culture or his daughter at all. Zhang Juan didn't know either, she didn't know this second-generation official, and it was her old man Zhang Hongsen who asked her to pass on the message.

"Sister Xiuxiu, you are so beautiful today." Shao Shuaijun looked at Li Xiuxiu who was wearing a well-fitting female suit, and the allure of the uniform was 100% off the charts.

Li Xiuxiu's shoulder-length hair was tied into a ponytail, which made her look more refined and beautiful. She was full of white-collar style: "I am beautiful today, but I was not beautiful before?"

"It's always been beautiful, but today's aura is overwhelming."

"Slick tongue." Li Xiuxiu smiled sweetly, "By the way, have the presents been put in the car?"

Liu Sanxi replied: "It's already in the trunk, Mr. Li."

"Brother Xi, don't call me Boss Li, just call me Xiuxiu." Liu Sanxi is a veteran in the company, and has a good relationship with Shao Shuaijun, so he is called Brother Xi and A Jun in private.

When we arrived at the hotel, Zhang Juan was already waiting at the door.

"Ajun, Xiuxiu, you are here, follow me in quickly."

"Sister Juan, do you know why Minister Song invited us here?" Shao Shuaijun and Li Xiuxiu asked as they walked.

Zhang Juan smiled: "I just found out that Minister Song's youngest daughter, Song Qian, is a fan of yours. The relationship between him and his daughter is not very harmonious. For this birthday party, to make her happy, Minister Song asked my dad I came here looking for you."

"You are so charming." Li Xiuxiu said with a smile.

Shao Shuaijun touched his nose and didn't know how to describe it. Although my brother is very low-key, his charm is unstoppable.

In the box, Shao Shuaijun saw a circle of leaders, such as several directors of the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television, and several department leaders under the Ministry of Culture. Shao Shuaijun had seen these on many occasions. This time it was Song Qian's birthday, and all the people who came were Minister Song's subordinates, or former subordinates, who came to flatter and give "gifts".

Although they are all subordinates, everyone has more air than Shao Shuaijun and is full of style. Talking and laughing around a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties.

"Xiao Shao and Xiao Li are here. Come, let me introduce you. This is Minister Song of the Ministry of Culture. You guys are making movies and doing art, so why don't you come here to curry favor." Zhang Hongsen waved his hand.

Shao Shuaijun instinctively numbed his scalp for this kind of occasion, but he still had to come over with a forced smile: "Mr. Song, hello, leaders."

"You are Shao Shuaijun. You are not bad. You have made many good movies at a young age. I was arguing with several ministers in the department a while ago. Which one has the highest box office, you or Zhang Yimou?" Minister Song was very kind. , but the demeanor of the whole body is rather calm and prestige.

Shao Shuaijun hurriedly said modestly: "Compared to Teacher Zhang Yimou, I am still far behind." He has a relationship with Zhang Yimou, and it is not an exaggeration to call him a teacher, which makes him more humble and respectful.

"Zhang Yimou is indeed a good director. Don't underestimate yourself. Youth is your capital. Sooner or later you can surpass him." Minister Song encouraged. I don't know if it was his secretary or who, a man in his thirties greeted everyone to sit down.

Shao Shuaijun and Li Xiuxiu were sitting next to each other. At this time, they heard the leaders of the two film bureaus bragging to each other: "I think "Source Code" may not be able to break the 1.3 billion box office of "Hero". One problem, especially the recent anti-dumping noise, even if it is released in a few countries, it will not have a big effect."

Because several anti-dumping lawsuits broke out between the country and the European Union, just as "Source Code" was seeking to be released in Europe, it was stuck like this, and it has not been unfrozen until now.

"That's not necessarily true. "Source Code" has been proven in North America. Europe has been following behind the United States. Who knows if it will become popular."

"If you don't believe it, a year will pass soon, and piracy will kill "Source Code"."

""Hero" was released in the United States for more than two years."

"That's different. "Hero" was released in Asia, and Americans don't care at all. That's why it can be successful. Can "Source Code" be the same? The pirated version came out early. Last time I went abroad for inspection, I saw pirated discs sold in France. .”

"Even if "Source Code" doesn't work, what about "The Promise"? Soon "The Promise" will be released, and maybe Zhang Yimou will be beaten to the ground."

"As for the bad movie "The Promise", it's not like you haven't watched it beforehand, so don't mention it."

"Maybe foreigners have this taste." After the leader finished speaking, he turned his head and asked Shao Shuaijun, "Xiao Shao, do you make sense in what I said?"

"Ah." Shao Shuaijun was affected by the topic, so he had to think about it and said, "I haven't watched "The Promise", so I don't know very well."
