Director’s Legend

() On February 25th, "Crazy Racing" began to be promoted. With the success of the stone, Huayi Brothers spared no effort in the promotion of this movie. Today's Huayi Brothers, through the financing of Tom Group, has made huge profits from the two movies "Crazy Stone" and "A World Without Thieves", and has become a well-deserved leader of private entertainment companies in the Mainland.

Many theaters, even without advertising fees, took the initiative to promote "Crazy Racing" during the movie's break.

Ning Hao and Huang Bo came to the studio and signed a contract to subscribe for shares in Shao Shuaijun's studio before going to the publicity. Ning Hao subscribed for 5% of the shares, and Huang Bo subscribed for 7% of the shares. It's not that the two don't want to subscribe more, but that they have no money in hand. Ning Hao's previous two films didn't make any money, so the million is still a loan. Huang Bo was a little bit better, with a racing car salary of 500,000, plus the stone's dividend of 300,000, he could still take out 800,000, and the remaining 600,000 was a loan.

Xu Zhen also came to sign the contract and directly subscribed for 10% of the shares. He and his wife, Xiao Longnv, had worked hard in the entertainment industry for many years, and they had some savings, so they directly took out 2 million.

The 2 million and Huang Bo's 800,000 made Shao Shuaijun, who was financially tight recently, relieved. All his money was invested in the film, and he borrowed 500,000 US dollars to buy "Twilight" from Huayi Brothers. "Buried Alive" was a big hit, but he didn't get a penny. 'Crazy Racers' and 'Source Code' haven't hit theaters yet

The entire Shao Shuaijun studio fell into a situation of running out of funds.

The investment in "On the Journey" can only be postponed, and the filming will start after the income from the racing comes back.

In such a situation, the publicity of the racing car was in full swing, and Shao Shuaijun quietly came to the studio of "Interview with Yang Lan". Yang Lan is a very courageous lady. In 2000, she established Sunshine Satellite TV, and her net worth soared to 1.4 billion. In 2001, she began to host "Interview with Yang Lan".

This is a program full of humanistic atmosphere, which is very popular among social elites.

With Shao Shuaijun's qualifications, being able to participate in this program is entirely dependent on the recent popularity of "Buried Alive". No way, this is the first time in the history of mainland Chinese films that they have achieved such a high box office in North America, and Shao Shuaijun is only eighteen, oh, nineteen years old. The topicality is too strong.

When I met Yang Lan in the studio, Yang Lan shook hands with Shao Shuaijun very kindly and said hello, and then the assistant brought an interview draft for Shao Shuaijun to read. The manuscript is very simple, it is to talk about how Shao Shuaijun embarked on the road of film, how he thinks about film, and the story of his childhood, and promote the new film "Source Code" by the way.

After confirming that there is no problem, the two of them face to face, several cameras are aligned, and the official recording begins. Of course, the program is not just a talk, but also the introductory words in front and the narration interspersed in the middle, but Shao Shuaijun does not need to participate in these, he only needs to chat here for two hours.

Yang Lan made a gesture to the director outside the venue, and then said, "Shao Shuaijun, I am very happy to invite you to "Interview with Yang Lan" today. I have interviewed many people, but a young director like Shao Shuaijun is still the first Times. "Source Code" has an investment of over 100 million, it is your biggest movie, is there any pressure?"

Shao Shuaijun was still a little embarrassed in front of the camera: "Actually, at the beginning, there was no pressure. Once I got a script right, I would be sure of its commercial value. Therefore, I was very confident when I decided to shoot. But , Later, this movie was badly criticized by many people, and I did increase a lot of pressure."

"If you were asked to describe it, what kind of movie do you think it is?"

"Science fiction is the first element. Well, love also occupies a large proportion of it. I hope it is a good story, a movie that can make you feel, feel, and marvel after watching it."

"Wow, that sounds like a cool movie, so what kind of characters are in it?"

"There are some scientists and some passengers on the train. In fact, the scene is not very big. The main reason is that the setting of the story is very attractive. When I first thought of this setting, in order to realize it, I talked with Mr. Chen Bin from the Institute of Theoretical Sciences of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Took a long class on quantum theory, parallel universes, it would be cool."

"Ah, that's cool. From another viewer's point of view, what impresses me the most when watching a movie is the characters in it. What do you think is the most anticipated character in this movie? ?”

"Naturally, it is the male protagonist. This story begins with him as the center. Everything is about his thoughts, which constitute the tension in the movie."

"Oh, so you played the hero in the movie yourself, and Liu Yifei played the heroine. Can you briefly talk about the love between you?"

"How should I put it, this love has no reason or result, it is just embellished in the plot, as a kind of emotional catharsis. I designed it as a very beautiful love, only beautiful things can set off Those, uh, sorry. But the general manager of our studio said that I am a romantic, and I can't figure out whether this love is romantic or realistic, haha."

"In this character, does it reflect your view of the world, or your view of love?"

"I don't know, I've never been in love..."

"Ah, hehe." Yang Lan said with a smile, "I heard that you graduated from high school, so you went to Hengdian to work in Hengdian. Does your family object to your going to Hengdian?"

"Very opposed, but I was also a stubborn temper back then, and I had to go to Nortel, Shanghai Opera, and Chinese Opera. You know, the life of drifting is really hard. Especially for us who play dead bodies, in the cold winter, if you are shooting a summer scene, you have to wear single clothes and lie on the ground. Lying down, sometimes not getting up for hours, can freeze a person."

Shao Shuaijun talked about his experience at the time, and he was deeply moved: "I learned the knowledge of directing desperately, but I just don't want to live this kind of hard life anymore. Fortunately, I succeeded in making "Buried Alive", and I have what I am now. To be honest, my success was accidental, half a year of horizontal drifting experience, let me recognize the society, and also accumulated a little skill, more people may still be doing horizontal drifting, hungry and full."

"It's really hard to drift horizontally, but you succeeded later, why did you go to Beitel to study again?"

"Hehe. Speaking of which, I'm really incompetent as a student, so I haven't gone to class." Shao Shuaijun smiled awkwardly, "Although I made a movie, it didn't fail. But I feel a lot of shortcomings in myself, so I might as well shoot now For example, "Source Code" is not a big production like Hollywood. That's it, I feel very difficult, especially when it comes to special effects shooting. I am a director who advocates blockbuster movies, especially When I saw a big production like "The Lord of the Rings", my heart jumped out, and I thought about making such a movie in the future. Therefore, I joined Nortel, hoping to learn more about this aspect."
