Director’s Legend

At the Hong Kong airport, Shao Shuaijun stepped off the plane wearing sunglasses and a peaked cap, and saw someone holding a sign from a distance, which said "the initials of he-word, which means the king of the world.

This is Li Xiuxiu's joke on Shao Shuaijun.

When I got closer, I saw Li Xiuxiu wearing a black windbreaker, looking at Shao Shuaijun and his party with a sweet smile, and the two assistants behind were holding up signs.

"Welcome the king of the world to Hong Kong!" Li Xiuxiu said with a smile, and then opened her arms.

"Wow, Miss Xiuxiu, I miss you so much!" Shao Shuaijun rarely saw Li Xiuxiu being so proactive, he immediately opened his arms and rushed over, ready to give Li Xiuxiu a firm hug.

Then, Li Xiuxiu nimbly avoided Shao Shuaijun's side, and hugged Yang Ying and Wang Cuicui: "Angela, Xiaocui, long time no see."

Shao Shuaijun blinked, feeling a gust of wind blowing by, so desolate.

"Boss, would you like me to give you a hug?" Li Xiuxiu's assistants, one of whom was an old man from Dream Chasing Company, had joined the company since Shao Shuaijun's studio and was quite familiar with Shao Shuaijun, so they asked.

Shao Shuaijun immediately put his hands in his pockets and blew his hair: "Sorry, my sexual orientation is normal, and I don't have such a heavy taste."

Not long after, Yang Ying's grandparents also came to pick up the plane. This time they had to stay in Hong Kong for a few days, so they approved Yang Ying's leave and asked her to go home for a few days.

"Director Shao, hello, thank you, the baby called and told us about the previous incident, thank you." The two old people said very politely.

Shao Shuaijun responded with a smile: "It's okay, two old people, our Dream Chasing Company is a moral entertainment company, and Yang Ying is an artist we value, so you can rest assured."

After Yang Ying left with her grandparents, Shao Shuaijun suddenly said, "Sister Xiuxiu, don't you realize that there are quite a lot of English names in the entertainment industry called angela? Why don't we ask Yang Ying to change her name to angelababy?"

"You are too broad in your management, even the artist's name?"

"Hehe, this is the responsible boss." Shao Shuaijun smiled. In the future, Yang Ying, in order to distinguish herself from others, did change her name to angelababy. It is really awkward not to change her name to Shao Shuaijun now. Shao Shuaijun wanted to call her angelababy several times with.

This time when he came to Hong Kong, Shao Shuaijun mainly listened to the recent report of Chasing Dream Golden Harvest.

Since reaching an oral agreement with Ma Yun that day, formal cooperation has also begun to be discussed. Based on several contacts, the cooperation method has been decided. Alibaba will buy EMI's Golden Harvest shares for US$15 million, and then exchange 50% of Alipay's shares for 15% of Dream's shares, taking the total shares to 30%.

After that, a series of capital operations will be carried out to merge Alipay, Golden Harvest’s studios, Chasing Dreams Film and Television Company, Chasing Dreams TV Drama Production Company, Chasing Dreams Film Distribution Company, Chasing Dreams Music Company, and Mtime.com into Chasing Dreams Golden Harvest Company as a whole, and re-list Issue shares.

Dream Chasing Entertainment will be reorganized into Dream Chasing Entertainment Group.

When the new Dream Chasing Golden Harvest company goes public, with Dream Chasing's status in the mainland film industry and Alipay's strong cash transaction volume, Dream Chasing Golden Harvest's capital will definitely increase several times or even dozens of times, and complete the first money transfer. The next step may be to further cooperate with Alibaba and exchange shares for cross-shareholding.

When Alibaba goes public in the future, it will be another act of misappropriating money.

"The report is well done, and the market plans for far, middle and near are all in place, so I will work hard for everyone to strive to make Golden Harvest Dream a big company comparable to any other Asian entertainment company." Shao Shuaijun said to the management of Golden Harvest Dream layer said. After reorganization, one-third of the top management has been replaced, and now Li Xiuxiu has basically mastered the power.

Shao Shuaijun didn't know much about such a complicated matter as going public, so it was better to leave it to a special person. After Li Xiuxiu finished explaining what was in hand, everyone finally set foot on the road to the United States. Shao Shuaijun has already conceived the storyboard script of "The Twilight Saga: Twilight", and the only thing left is to prepare the crew and start filming after the investment procedures are in place.

At Los Angeles Airport, Qian Yongqiang came to pick him up.

The post-production of "Painted Skin" is about to be completed, and now it has entered the stage of negotiation for release. Wang Zhonglei and Yang Hongtao have been in the United States for more than half a month, running everywhere to promote it.

Asking Li Xiuxiu to take people to prepare for the film company, Shao Shuaijun and Qian Yongqiang went to a special effects company in Hollywood.

In the film screening room, Gao Yang and Miao Chenshan had already prepared the samples.

After showing the special effects shots one by one, Shao Shuaijun clapped his hands: "That's right, this level of special effects is in line with my expectations. It's already April, and it's time for us to edit the samples. It's not good to have only fragmentary clips." Propaganda. Old money, I have to work hard again, I don’t have much time, so I stay up late to fight?”

"Haha, it's finally time for the film to take shape. It's nothing to stay up late. I've been producing films in Hong Kong for decades, and this time I'm the most excited. The actual production cost is 200 million yuan. To chew it off."

The director's cut is the cut that best fits the expectations of the movie.

However, sometimes the director's cut is also the most uncommercial. Each set of shots is shot with a lot of effort, just like the director's child. Holding the scissors, I was reluctant to cut this set of shots, and I was reluctant to cut that set of shots. In the end, a 90-minute movie can be cut into 120 points for the director. A 120-minute movie can be cut into 140 minutes.

If it is said that Shao Shuaijun used the first few films to hone his director skills, did not make much changes, and had the original film as a reference, if the scissors had the help of God, he would cut them without hesitation. Then this "Painted Skin" is much more difficult. After all, many scenes were modified by Shao Shuaijun, and the ending of the entire movie was also modified.

It is not an exaggeration to say that it is his half son.

Faced with such a movie, Shao Shuaijun couldn't bear to cut it randomly.

"Old Qian, look at this set of shots, how beautiful the shots are, keep it?"

"But does it have anything to do with the theme of the movie?"

"Um... maybe, it can relax people's spirits during the tense time..."

"Gao Yang, Chen Shan, take a look at this set of shots. The scenes are intense enough. I personally chose to stay. What do you think?"

Gao Yang touched his chin: "This group describes Wang Jiajun, it seems to be an unimportant supporting role."

Miao Chenshan scratched his head: "This person seems to be going to die after all. He fought so fiercely before, and he will die in the next moment, isn't it..."

"Okay, this group...deleted!"

After three days of struggling, Shao Shuaijun finally completed the director's cut of "Painted Skin". At this time, Wang Zhonglei and Yang Hongtao also rushed over, as well as Rob Friedman, the co-chairman of Lionsgate Pictures.

"Oh dear Shao, welcome to Hollywood again!"

Rob Friedman gave Shao Shuaijun a bear hug as soon as he came up, and he was very enthusiastic.

"Hello Chairman Rob, it's a pleasure to see you again. Your body is as strong as ever."

"Thanks, I feel like I'm still young. By the way, I heard that "Painted Skin" has finished editing? Oh, I can't wait to see the full movie."
