"What were you doing when you were 22?

Squandering your youth?

Nervous to start a job search?

Heartless and heartless drifting?

......

If yes, then you should come and see Chen Hao's 22-year-old!

This young director from Huaxia started his own film and television studio during the summer vacation of his sophomore year, making money by shooting commercials, MVs and photos for people.

Then, in his junior year, he finally earned enough money to shoot his first movie!

It was this low-budget sci-fi film of only $6,000 that really opened Chen's wonderful life, and he was only 21 years old that year!

And his first movie was "Comet", with an IMDB score of 7.1 points and a box office of $1.22 million in China!

"Comet" is a pretty good sci-fi sketch, and in the sci-fi desert of China, it is even more sought after!

This debut film also made Chen Hao gain fame and fortune and began to emerge in the film industry!

"Comet" had just been painted, and with the money earned from "Comet" and the appreciation it received, he soon went on to make his second film, "The Moon"!

When the film was released in North America, it was voted "2002: A Space Odyssey" by many media and critics, and the best sci-fi film of 2002!

The IMDB score is as high as 8.0 points, and it won the Grand Jury Prize at last year's Cannes Film Festival!

This film made Chen really the most well-known rookie director in China, and was called the biggest discovery in 2002 by the Chinese film industry!

At this time, he was not even 22 years old and had not yet graduated from college!

The young man's desire to create is very strong, and at the same time his ambition is growing wildly, and in China, he met Davis, the head of Colombia's Asian region.

Then, at the invitation of Davis, he came to North America, hoping to show his film talent!

And after he came to Hollywood, the first report card he handed over was the classic suspense thriller "Chainsaw"!

This small-budget B-movie that amazed last year's Halloween dwarfs a lot of horror films in North America!

IMDB scored 7.6 points, the North American box office was 55.15 million, and the return on investment ratio was 46 times! The global box office also successfully exceeded 100 million US dollars, reaching 103 million!

Then there is "Hurricane Rescue", which has now exceeded 100 million at the North American box office!

This box office result made Chen the youngest director in North American film history with a box office of over 100 million!

Chen has shot a total of 4 films so far, although the themes are different, but you can see the wonderful screenwriting, as well as the solid basic skills as a director, and the smooth rhythm of the film.

It's not an exaggeration to say that he is a genius director!

And after the North American box office of "Hurricane Rescue" exceeded 100 million, Chen really gained a firm foothold in North America!

At this time, he was only 22 years and 9 months old, and when other people's lives were just beginning, Chen seemed to have reached the peak!

But I'm sure there are still a lot of wonderful ideas in this young man's mind that haven't been sparked!

Now he is well-known in North America, and he is relatively limited by investors, which allows him to get rid of the shackles and truly show his film talent!

Therefore, although the North American box office of "Hurricane Rescue" exceeded 100 million, I think it is more Chen personal characteristics and thoughts. The film that can show his talent better should be his next film!

Let's wait and see, and look forward to Chen bringing us bigger surprises!"

--- Los Angeles Times (Robert St. Lehmann)

The success of a "Chainsaw" has made many American film companies know about Chen Hao, but not many North American audiences have left an impression.

After all, Chen Hao is a Chinese, and it is a little difficult for the Yankees to remember him.

But the Hollywood entertainment industry, which is closely related to this, has obviously noticed this newcomer director, but it doesn't pay too much attention to it!

After all, no matter how wonderful "Chainsaw" is, it is only a low-budget B-grade film, and the box office is only $55 million!

However, when "Hurricane Rescue" was also a great success and became the 9th film to break $100 million in the North American film market this year, Hollywood's major studios were not calm!

After all, two successive movies have been successful at the box office, and they have successfully exceeded 100 million, which is obviously not something that an ordinary director can do.

Directors who have achieved such results at least have the potential to become well-known directors, and already have the value of spending their efforts to win over!

The media naturally saw the popularity of "Hurricane Rescue" and the public's curiosity about Chen Hao, so they began to introduce Chen Hao's short but wonderful directorial career in detail!

Not only that, but the media also interviewed Chen Hao, the key person who came to Hollywood, Davis!

Davis: From the time I saw Comet, I knew Chan was a film genius! I couldn't wait to work with him to help him show off his cinematic talent!

So, I took the rights to Comet and brought it to North America, so that American audiences had the privilege of seeing the film!

It was the same with the subsequent "Moon", where I spent a huge amount of money to buy out the global rights and then released it worldwide, letting the world know about this sci-fi masterpiece!

And I also affirmed Chen Hao's incomparable talent from "Moon", and the film environment in China is not very good, so I came up with the idea of bringing him to Hollywood!

As it turned out, I made the right decision, I brought a talented director to North America, and he got so many Hollywood studios in just two films that he took a fancy to him.

However, I have to say here that Chen and I have a very deep personal friendship, and he has a very happy cooperation with Colombia, so don't think about it!

Speaking of Chen, his talent is truly amazing, and it's far from showing what if, and I always believe that his best film is his next one.

I'm already looking forward to his new film, and our company will continue to work with him and do our best to help him show his film talent!"

Downey, who participated in Chen Hao's two movies one after another, was also interviewed by reporters.

Downey: Chen, Wow! He's a real cinematic genius, and even though he's still young, he has all sorts of ideas in his head!

He is a great director, he knows how to mobilize the emotions of the actors, and the crew is also well managed, although he is young, but he has super leadership.

He was a very good friend, he gave me the opportunity to turn around, and encouraged me for a long time, so that I could get out of the shadow of drugs and let my life shine again.

He's my best friend!

At the same time, the media somehow found out that Scarlett Johansson once refused to act in "Saw Horror"!

Scarlett Johansson: It's a shame that I wasn't able to join "Saw Horror" because of the schedule, I was taking over "The Absent Man" at the time.

Chen is a very talented director and I hope to work with him next time!

At this time, Scarlett Johansson is not the black widow of later generations, the goddess of commercial films, and her current label is a child star of literary films!

However, it is obvious that any actress who can get out of the way is not simple, she did not mock "Chainsaw", which she looked down on at the time, only said that the schedule was not suitable.

The box office of "Hurricane Rescue" exceeded 100 million, many actors and producers praised Chen Hao, and some Hollywood film companies are also looking for Chen Hao, hoping to cooperate with him!

Coupled with the continuous media reports, Chen Hao became one of the hot spots in North America for a while.
