0247 【Global Gathering】
"By the way, after "The Night Man", didn't you say you wanted to film "Old Boy"? When will you be ready to start?" Huang Bo asked.
In fact, when she participated in "The Voice of China" in 2006, Shao Shuaijun wrote the song "Old Boy" and had the idea to make a movie. Although "Old Boy" is about the pursuit of musical dreams, the emotions and life hardships are so moving.
For the post-70s and post-80s, "Old Boy" is the song that touches the heart the most. It never gets tired of listening to it, and the more you hum it, the more you feel. As the micro-film of the same name of "Old Boy" said at the end of the film: "Dream is like a classic. It will never fade because of time, but it will be more precious."
In the previous life, "Old Boy" was a song by the Chopsticks Brothers. They also filmed the micro-film of the same name, which has attracted millions of clicks and touched countless people.
Shao Shuaijun is one of them. He has struggled for a long time, but he was not even a third-rate young director. His dream is like a ship gradually moving away, floating but never willing to dock. "Old Boy" is his favorite micro-film. In his previous life, he once wanted to change "Old Boy" into a movie and release it in the cinema.
I have the ability in this life, so of course I have to work hard to realize this little dream.
"I have already had two plans, one for me and you to star in the movie, and the other for my company's latest contract with Chopstick Brothers to star in. Both of them have stories, and I have handed over "Old Boy" to them for resing and packing it on the market. What do you think should I do?" Shao Shuaijun asked.
"What do you think? I like this story very much. We are drifting in Beijing, who doesn't have a dream? But if you don't act, our stick combination will be broken up and I won't act anymore."
"I have no acting skills, I'm afraid I'll mess it up." Shao Shuaijun actually wanted to act. Although he is a director, he was too touched by "Old Boy". He really wanted to use such a movie to remember his past, those memories that were blown away by the wind and often emerged.
"That's right." Huang Bo sighed with regret.
Shao Shuaijun thought about it and suddenly said, "Or else keep it. After a few years, the post-70s and post-80s have grown up, got married, and had children. Let's take a photo again."
“Okay.”
Huang Bo is going to participate in an advertisement shooting, and he parted at the door. Shao Shuaijun bought two breakfasts in the cafeteria and returned home. Li Xiuxiu was dressing in the room. When she saw Shao Shuaijun pushing the door in, she was shocked, then blushed and quickly put her sweater on.
"Hey, you..."
Shao Shuaijun smiled slightly: "Sister Xiuxiu, you are so beautiful."
"Oh, I...don't stare at me."
He walked gently to Li Xiuxiu and hugged her. Shao Shuaijun laughed: "It's all old husbands and wives, why are you shy? Wash your face and brush your teeth quickly. I've bought breakfast."
After having breakfast while laughing and playing, Li Xiuxiu felt a little uncomfortable, so Shao Shuaijun toughly asked her to rest at home for a day. He also had to go to the company to sign. The year is approaching, and the financial review of each subsidiary needs Shao Shuaijun to sign and approve this job, and others cannot do it for him.
Along the way, the employees greeted him respectfully, and Shao Shuaijun felt particularly good.
After going to the top floor, his office was exclusively owned by him. Assistant Wang Cuicui immediately took a bunch of documents for Shao Shuaijun to sign. After a few minutes, Yi Jianmei knocked in happily: "Mr. Shao, I'm so happy!"
"Oh, what's the good news?"
"The box office in North America's third week has come out. "Inception" continues to lead the box office rankings with US$33.2 million and achieved three consecutive championships! Currently, the total box office in North America is 213.2 million. "National Treasure 2" has been suppressed and there will be no blockbuster release next week. With a reputation like "Inception", the downward trend of box office is very small, and we are very likely to achieve four consecutive championships!"
"This is normal. How can "Inception" be worthy of such hard shooting and production without these box offices?" Shao Shuaijun smiled calmly, with memories of his previous life. He was not surprised much, "By the way, Sister Mei, has the release date of "Inception" been extended in North America?"
"The theater company has sent a letter to see the next trend of the box office, which may be extended by one month or two months."
The theaters are naturally unwilling to write pictures if they can continue to make money and attract money. This way, they can earn more, and Shao Shuaijun can earn more, which is a gratifying congratulations.
After talking about North America, Yi Jianmei smiled and said, "The box office in the mainland came out yesterday. Mr. Shao should have watched "News Broadcast". With an absolute advantage of 78.5 million yuan, he won the third weekly championship in the mainland box office. Currently, the total box office is 402 million yuan, becoming the highest box office in the history of mainland films and is expected to enter the impossible height of 500 million yuan."
"Haha, it seems that 500 million is a big barrier now. When the mainland theaters develop in the future, more and more movies will break this record." Shao Shuaijun still looked calm.
Because his director is Chinese, Zhou Runfa is Chinese, and he is also a dream-chasing investment, he has a popular screening volume and it is impossible not to get a super box office. However, it seems to be a super box office now, but it is not the case in the future. At least before Shao Shuaijun's rebirth, "Lost in Thailand" created a box office record of 1.26 billion domestic movies, while "Avatar", which was the king of the world, has been sharpened for four years, created a box office of 1.3 billion mainland film history, which was only 2009.
After defeating "Titanic" and "Avatar", Cameron is definitely the enemy of Chinese filmmakers throughout his life.
The road ahead is far, and there is still a need to work hard!
Yi Jianmei raised her eyebrows at Shao Shuaijun's calmness and disagreed. Shao Shuaijun likes to be more deeply dressed than dressed, and everyone has seen it. He handed over a stack of newspapers: "The global box office has been 500 million US dollars, and Wu Yusen's record will be broken by you. Feel everyone's praise. In addition, think about how to deal with the media quickly. I have already felt that a major reporter is coming to you. If you don't come out again, the Dream-Zhunting Film and Television Base will be overturned!"
"It just so happens that you can help me arrange a reporter interview and the establishment of the New Film Technology Institute to enhance the institute's momentum."
"good."
After the interview meeting was arranged, media around the world gathered towards Zhumeng Entertainment Group. Shao Shuaijun notified the preparatory committee of the "New Electrical Technology Research Institute" and rushed to the hall on the first floor of Zhumeng Film and Television Base to hold the establishment ceremony.
On January 9th, the interview meeting was held as scheduled.
In the morning, the entire hall of Zhumeng Film and Television Base was crowded with people, shoulder to shoulder, and there were reporters and photographers. China, Japan, Germany, France, Russia, the United States, Britain and Australia, black hair, yellow hair, white hair, red hair, black white, yellow people, and reporters from all over the world came.
For this movie that is hitting the global box office rankings.
