In mid-June, Wan Xiaohu completed the 120-minute copy of the "Wanted Order" and then flew to the United States with the copy for post-production. Subtitles, soundtracks, and sound effects editing will all be completed in Hollywood. With the company of Jessica Alba, life in the United States is not boring.

32 special effects teams led by Shenlong Hero Digital Painting Company subcontract all special effects shots of the movie.

Wan Xiaohu was in charge, coordinated and commanded, and asked for details according to the composition he thought.

This year is a big year for Chinese films. Several famous directors have started filming blockbusters one after another, waiting for the final battle at the last moment. "The Wanted Order" is an international blockbuster. Whether or not you can compete in a group of martial arts blockbusters in China remains to be discussed, so it needs to be produced more carefully.

As Mtime Time Network's special report in June, there were ten Chinese-language movies that had to be watched in 2004.

"The tenth "Peacock" is photographed by Gu Changwei, and the best is guided. The schedule ends."

Last year, in 2003, many interesting things happened in the Chinese film industry. Among them, the most interesting one was that the three famous photographers collectively changed careers to directors. Wan Xiaohu's old partner, Inspector Lu Le, filmed "Beauty Grass" and invited Shu Qi and Liu Ye to join. As a result, the box office of less than 300,000 yuan was released in Beijing for four days, and it was a terrible defeat.

Hou Yong, who photographed "My Father and Mother", filmed "Jasmine Blossoms", asked Zhang Ziyi to play the triangle alone, and invited Chen Chong and Jiang Wen to help. As a result, he was scolded by the director of the Magic City before the filming was finished. He thought the casting was too bad and had no taste of the story of the Magic City at all.

The last one is Gu Changwei, who has filmed "Red Sorghum", "Jupito", "Farewell My Concubine" and "Sunny Days". He did not invite stars or make a lot of publicity. The filming of "Peacock" still attracted a lot of attention.

"In the ninth part of "The World", Jia Zhangke finally surfaced. The schedules are 8, 9, and 10 are possible."

As a representative figure of the sixth generation director, Jia Zhangke's talent is unquestionable. He has won international reputation with his trilogy "Xiaowu", "Stand Up" and "Ren Xiaoyao". Like Wang Xiaoshuai, he is the literary and artistic style among the sixth generation directors, which is completely opposite to the commercial directors such as Wan Xiaohu and Ning Hao.

These days, directors who are engaged in literature and art are definitely not famous for commercial directors. So even if Cannes won the award, Jia Zhangke is still an underground director, with flowers blooming inside and outside the wall. Fortunately, the fragrance of flowers has finally spread to China. The 8 million-dollar investment in "World" is not a small cost, and it is inevitable to attract attention.

"The eighth part "Jianghu" is better than "Infernal Affairs". It is scheduled for October."

"The seventh part "Crazy Racing". Ning Hao and Huang Bo continue their crazy mission again, with a schedule of July."

"The sixth part "2046" has been released for a long time, and it will last for October."

This is a work directed by Wang Jiawei. As a literary director who focuses on quality but not quantity, one of Wang Jiawei's major characteristics is that he is exquisite. He is very careful in details. In other words, this guy is too ingenious. "2046" has been filmed for three or four years, and the filming has been stopped. Finally, the scheduled up-end time has been pushed again and again. It was originally scheduled for May Day, but later it was pushed to the summer schedule. Now the latest saying is that Wang Jiawei will deliver the goods in October.

"Can Stephen Chow continue his glory in the fifth "Kung Fu"? It will take December."

Before "Infernal Affairs", Stephen Chow's "Shaolin Football" broke the highest box office record of Hong Kong films in Hong Kong of 60 million Hong Kong dollars. Although many people gave the title of "Infernal Affairs" to "Infernal Affairs" and believed that "Infernal Affairs" activated the theme of police and gangster films in Hong Kong films, there were also many titles of "Shaolin Football" to "Shaolin Football".

Now three years have passed, Stephen Chow will make a comeback with "Kung Fu".

"In the fourth part of "The World Without Thieves", Feng Xiaogang is looking at the New Year's Day. The schedule is December."

"The third part of "Wuji", Brother Chen followed suit. The schedule is unknown."

"The second part of "The Ten-Faced Ambush", Zhang Yimou will fight again in the world. The schedule is July."

"The first "Wanted Order" is a challenge to the world. It will last for January."

Among these ten movies in the second half of this year, two major battles are inevitable. "Crazy Racing" and "Ten-sided Ambush" are competing for the summer season, "Kung Fu", "The World Without Thieves" and "Wanted Order" compete for the New Year's Eve. However, the competition is mostly rational. Racing is in early July and at the end of July. In early December, "Ten-sided Ambush" and "The Wanted Order" are arranged in January next year, each with one or two weeks apart.

As for North America, "Wanted Order" is very unceremonious to occupy the Christmas season and will be released first on December 24th.

The battle will be the comedy movie "Meeting the Father-in-law 2". In addition, there are not many strong opponents throughout the Christmas period, and it is a relatively very favorable release period, which shows Paramount's emphasis on "The Wanted Order".

In this way, June ends in the heat.

July is coming.

The second production of Dandelion Movie this year, "Crazy Racing" was released on Friday, July 2. As a sister piece to the popular Stone back then, it attracted countless audiences from the beginning to enter the cinema.

The box office was announced three days later, and it received 18 million yuan, which had a very good reputation. In the second week, the second week, the total box office was 48 million yuan, and for a medium-cost movie with an investment of less than 12 million yuan, it was already recovered in ten days.

"After Wan Xiaohu, another commercial genius of the sixth generation director was born. Ning Hao was only three years older than Wan Xiaohu in 1977, and Chinese films entered the era of dominance of the new generation of directors!"

"The mad phenomenon is by no means accidental. Commercial movies usher in dawn. Racing drivers with multi-line narratives have once again led the box office trend!"

"The sixth generation of directors began to seize power, and the dawn of Chinese films is coming!"

"48 million in ten days, crazy racers ran to the 100 million box office!"

"The group of comedians are shining!"

Either spend money to buy likes or comment spontaneously, "Crazy Racing" became popular and completely popular.

On July 16, Zhang Yimou's blockbuster "The Ambush" was released, but it failed to extinguish the fire. It was like a box office that committed crimes against the wind. The third full week was 21 million, the fourth full week was 17 million, and the fifth full week was 9 million, and it took two consecutive months of box office before it was officially released.

At this time, the final box office was 100.1 million yuan, and Ning Hao became the fourth director in the mainland to have a single film box office of over 100 million yuan after "Life and Death Choice".

"This is the best time for the sixth generation of directors!" At the end of August, after the 10th China Film Huabiao Awards ceremony, the media reported this.

Because of this Huabiao Award, Wan Xiaohu became the biggest winner of the Huabiao Award with the "Sound of the Wind".

He won seven major awards: the Excellent Feature Film Award (joined by nine movies), the Excellent Director Award (joined by Zheng Dongtian), the Excellent Actress Award (Zhou Xun), the Excellent Film Actress Newcomer Award (Li Bingbing), the Excellent Film Technology Award, the Excellent Producer Award (Wan Xiaohu) and the Market Development Award.

As the government award, the Huabiao Award is naturally the government's recognition and commendation for filmmakers. Wan Xiaohu is so popular that in his nickname, the title of "Representative Wan" is added, which means that Wan Xiaohu is the representative of the government in the film industry, and can shoot the main theme of patriotic and anti-Japanese war so much. It doesn't mean that it's hard for the government to do so.

Not long after winning the Huabiao Award, the special effects work of the "Wanted Order" was also completed.

The publicity period has officially arrived.

Paramount is doing the publicity in North America, including editing trailers. In Asia, the publicity work is done by Jiahe, Dandelion, China Film Group, Huayi Brothers, and Universal Film. There is no giant film company in Asia yet, and it is not possible to swallow it by one market.

Gather together and strive to open up the market so that you can earn more.

Not long after the Huabiao Awards ended, the 13th Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival opened in Yinchuan on September 16. There were only three days before the award ceremony was held on September 19. This award ceremony included the 27th Popular Film Hundred Flowers Award and the 24th China Film Golden Rooster Award.

Unlike previous years, this year's Hundred Flowers Awards have changed. Instead of buying magazines and sending votes back, they use mobile phone voting and ending on the night of the award ceremony. In other words, the suspense is retained to the party, rather than being announced early.

At this award ceremony, the most popular one is naturally "The Sound of the Wind".

Wan Xiaohu also specially brought the "Wanted Order" specially edited and produced to shoot a documentary and participated in this film festival for promotion.

...

The film festival is a good place to get together.

Wan Xiaohu enjoys the scenery of every film festival, and the rare female stars come here. Then he can hook up, exchange phone numbers, etc., make an appointment to have a chance to cooperate.

On the afternoon of September 18, the multi-purpose hall of Yinchuan University was overcrowded.

The documentary filming of "Wanted Order" will begin to be staged here as the first wave of publicity.

Since it is a documentary, the final exchange is definitely indispensable. For this reason, Wan Xiaohu invited Feng Xiaogang to have a conversation with a business master, just like in "Heroes" back then, when Zhang Yimou asked him to have a conversation. This is a rule that has become a custom.

"I shouldn't have come today. I'm looking for humiliation." Feng Xiaogang shouted in the backstage preparation room of Yinchuan University, "I've been filming the New Year holiday for so many years, and the limelight was stolen by you and Zhang Yimou. Today I'm going to come here to talk about your blockbusters, which is very awkward."

Wan Xiaohu smiled and said, "Teacher Feng, you are a senior. You have opened up the New Year's Eve. Only when we benefit from your strength can we become better than our best. You are always qualified to teach me a lesson when you are in conversation."

"I'm so sarcastic when you say this. Don't be your shitty, I dare not be your teacher. We are a peer-to-people, call me Lao Feng, I call you Xiaohu, that's it. Don't be vague. If you are vague, I will turn around and leave now." Feng Xiaogang continued to scream.

But his attitude is not fake. If Wan Xiaohu didn't call him Lao Feng, he would be anxious.

In the end, Wan Xiaohu couldn't resist and had to call Lao Feng.

"That's right. I, Feng Xiaogang, are not an upper-class director. Old Feng, I feel comfortable listening to it."

"But I screamed awkwardly and couldn't show my modesty." Wan Xiaohu laughed. Every time I received the Golden Rooster Award, Feng Xiaogang would be upset.

The Golden Rooster Awards don’t like this non-academic director who jumped out of nowhere. Every year, he always has to make things sick. However, in order to promote the movie, Feng Xiaogang is not able to break off contact with the Golden Rooster Awards. This time, it is no exception. Last year, the limelight of domestic movies was stolen by "The Wind", but the box office of "Mobile Mobile" is not low, with 56 million, the second largest box office in that year.

Logically speaking, Chinese film awards have begun to pay attention to box office in recent years, and "Mobile Phone" should win some awards. The Huabiao Award was wiped out, and the Hundred Flowers Award did not dare to compete with "The Wind". The Golden Rooster Awards were only one Best Supporting Actor Award and one Best Art Award were shortlisted. Feng Xiaogang was so angry that he was half-hearted.

If it weren't for the promotion of "The World Without Thieves", Feng Dapao probably wouldn't have come directly and fired fire and scolded him in the newspaper.

After chatting for a while, the staff said that there were all people in the hall, and the two of them walked over shoulder to shoulder.
Chapter completed!
