0108 [I will cut the Hu] Make up
I will update the first day of the 23rd. The recommendation position will not be good next week. I hope my friends can help you and give me some recommendations.
———————————————
"Hero" is rampant in North America, making Zhang Yimou proud and the Chinese people, while "Lost in Thailand" is rampant in China. Spielberg's "War of the World" begins to lack momentum, and "Lost in Thailand" is still strong, winning 13 million again in the third week, with a total box office accumulated to 53 million.
Countless media shouted that Shao Shuaijun's comedy era is coming.
First, "Crazy Stone" directed by Shao Shuaijun himself performed a miracle of over 100 million yuan, and then "Crazy Racing" written and invested by the screenwriter made 150 million yuan. Now the screenwriter's work "Lost in the Road" is coming in full force. Although it is unlikely that it will exceed 100 million yuan, it is inevitable that it will sell well and be popular.
Three comedies in two years, plus the filming of "The Golden Robbery", which is still in the works, are preparing to focus on the Spring Festival. Four comedies occupy 70% of the entire Chinese-language film comedy market, and Feng's humor does not have such great dominance. Only one of these four comedies is directed by Shao Shuaijun himself, but the other three are all written and invested by Shao Shuaijun, so they are naturally under Shao Shuaijun.
"We are very pleased to see that the fifth generation of directors leads the tide, and the sixth generation of directors begins to show their talents temporarily, and the new generation of directors also has excellent talents like Shao Shuaijun. The rise of Chinese films is just around the corner. We have reason to believe that in the near future, Chinese films will surely stand on the stage of the world and spread China to the world."
In the absence of filming by the crew, Shao Shuaijun picked up a newspaper and looked with relish. In the fourth week of "Lost in Thailand", he finally showed signs of fatigue. The number of viewers and the number of scenes dropped sharply. He expected to win a box office of about 5 million at most, and piled up the total box office to 58 million, surpassing Spielberg's "War of the World" 53 million box office, becoming the seventh in the mainland box office in 2005.
The first one is "Crazy Racing" with 150 million, followed by "Source Code" with 98 million, starring Leon Lai, Real Bullet and others, 83.45 million, followed by "Star Wars Prequel 3: Revenge of the Sith", 75.54 million, and Jay Chou starred in "Initial D" with 63 million, followed by "Operation Smith" with 62 million.
Of course, Chen Kaige's claim to invest 350 million in blockbuster "The Promise", Brother Cheng Long's latest masterpiece "Myth", the new versions of "King Kong" and "Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire" that are popular in North America, and Ning Hao's blockbuster "The Golden Robbery" will all compete in this year's Spring Festival. In Shao Shuaijun's memory, none of these movies have low box offices. Although the bad movie "The Promise" was filmed badly, it also won more than 170 million yuan.
This year's Spring Festival period is the most fierce competition in the past years.
In addition, Wang Yixue's debut work "Du Lala's Promotion Record" was also highly expected by Shao Shuaijun, hoping to achieve better results than "Lost in the Road".
Regarding the box office, Shao Shuaijun was attracted by a news from the newspaper for a moment. Director Li An won the Golden Lion Award for Best Film for "Brokeback Mountain" at this year's 62nd Venice Film Festival.
"This year is the Golden Lion Award, and next year it will be the Oscar. The first Chinese Oscar-best director is really enviable."
Shao Shuaijun admires the gentle Li An, who is also a director who focuses on making movies. The movies he made are to truly explore his own ideas, rather than to be vulgar in Europe and the United States. With this alone, he instantly killed Zhang Yimou and Chen Kaige.
"Time flies so fast. In a blink of an eye, more than a year has passed, and the time left for me is getting less and less. After "Painted Skin", my speed is about to speed up!"
After closing the newspaper, Shao Shuaijun picked up the horn again and shouted: "Have you rested enough, work quickly!"
September is in a hurry. "Lost in Thailand" was released for a month and officially released a painting. The total box office is 58.5 million, which is almost the same as expected. After deducting the share, Shao Shuaijun's studio got a profit of 22 million. The studio distributed dividends again, Shao Shuaijun got 12 million, and everyone else got a lot of big red envelopes.
However, this will also be the studio's last movie dividend. After "Lost in the Road", Shao Shuaijun's studio completely became a production studio and no longer participated in the investment in movies.
"Lost in Thailand" is over, and the box office is booming, and the sequel schedule is on the desk, but Xu Pear did not immediately choose to shoot the sequel.
"A Jun, making a movie is even more tiring than making ten TV series. "Lost in the Road" made me exhausted. I really don't understand how you can withstand it after filming one movie after another. I have to have some breath. I have discussed with Xiaolongnu. We are not going to plan the sequel to "Lost in the Road". We are not going to plan now, take on some acting and do some relaxing work first."
Xu Pie obviously thought about it on the phone.
Shao Shuaijun smiled and said, "Old Xu, this is consistent with my opinion. "Lost in the Road" has just ended its release, and after all, there are a few people who come to the cinema to watch. After the popularity of DVDs and pirated copies, the market volume will become larger and larger for two or three years. Only then will the sequel be filmed will maximize the benefits. Moreover, now, no matter whether it is Shao Shuaijun's studio or the Tian Shuaijun, there is no separate channel and needs to be controlled by others. When I become independent of the company and we truly become the boss ourselves, that is the time for a big investment, haha."
"I think so, haha."
Hang up the phone, Shao Shuaijun smiled. The miracle of the sequel "Lost in Thailand" is to hold it firmly in his hands and not let others share the cake. Nowadays, companies and movies are all small-scale, and it is necessary to let others take advantage of it. How can children trap wolves? If you want to have your own channels and paths, you need to consolidate them step by step.
And now, a new path appears before Shao Shuaijun.
Wanda is about to enter the theater system nationwide.
This is a huge opportunity. When Shao Shuaijun heard the news, he immediately found Li Xiuxiu and said only one meaning. In any case, he had to participate. For this reason, the North American Twilight Company did not hesitate to sell the copyright of the "Twilight" series of novels in advance, cashing out US$30 million, and was ready to invest in Wanda Cinemas at any time.
Before Wanda negotiated cooperation, Shao Shuaijun handed the crew to Qian Yongqiang for temporary care and quietly came to Hong Kong. Li Xiuxiu and Zou Daheng's contact has been progressing slowly. Shao Shuaijun was furious by Wanda Cinemas and could not wait to slowly procrastinate with Jiahe.
This time, we came here to reach an intention. If Zou Daheng is willing to sell it, we can negotiate slowly. If Zou Daheng is unwilling, Shao Shuaijun immediately gave up and turned to participate in Wanda Cinemas.
Li Xiuxiu was in Hong Kong and met with Shao Shuaijun at the airport.
"Sister Xiuxiu, thank you for your hard work during this period. Come and hug me as a thank you."
Shao Shuaijun is also a public figure now. "Source Code" makes him familiar to the public. He also has a considerable number of fans in Hong Kong. If he is recognized by star-chasing people, it will be very troublesome, causing others to speculate and track down his purpose in Hong Kong. He is here to intercept Hu Jiahe, so he naturally has to disguise himself, wear a baseball cap and toad glasses, and wear a large T-shirt that has been very popular recently. He is quite hip-hop.
"Oh, which bad boy from the family?"
Li Xiuxiu avoided Shao Shuaijun's hug and laughed non-stop.
Chapter completed!
