2004 can be said to be a bumper year for major Korean film companies, among which Chen Xueqian's CC Film and Television is the biggest winner. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

On July 10, 2004, in order to thank fans for their support, the crew of "Room No. 7" held a thank-you meeting. The attendees were selected from among the fans. As long as fans who have seen the movie put their names on the tickets they watched the movie, someone will draw a lucky audience from them.

The lucky audience was contacted by the crew and personally invited each other to participate in the appreciation party.

That evening, the evening was held at the Peace Auditorium of Kyung Hee University in South Korea. All the leading actors of the "Room No. 7" crew participated. A number of journalists were also invited to participate.

However, when these reporters and even the audience thought that the main creative team had found Chen Xueqian, the film's director, screenwriter, and producer, they couldn't find it at the scene.

Everyone couldn't help but wonder about this, and during the free interview, a reporter asked the lead actor Song Kang-ho a question.

"Mr. Song Kanghao, why didn't you watch Director Chen Xueqian today?"

To this question, Song Kang-ho replied very seriously: "I'm sorry, the director flew to the United States half a month ago, because there is a movie there waiting for him to do the final check." ”

The reporter immediately hurriedly asked, "What kind of movie is it?" ”

Song Kanghao still replied without any impatience: "It is an animated film produced by Universal Pictures and written by director Chen Xueqian, called "Despicable Me"! ”

Hearing the news, the reporters below were all elated. Recently, every report about Chen Xueqian has been very popular, and this time they can get news about Chen Xueqian's new movie, and they don't have to worry about sales at all.

"So Mr. Song Kanghao, is it true that the rumor that Chen Xueqian directed this movie earned 30 million US dollars?" Another reporter shifted the subject.

Song Kanghao couldn't answer this, but fortunately, Song Hye Kyo on the side took over the topic in time.

"I'll answer this question, I read the company's financial report not long ago, and the director of this movie does earn a lot of money, and the amount rumored on the Internet is roughly true."

Hearing Song Hye Kyo admit this fact, the reporter suddenly became even more excited.

Soon the reporter's question ended, and Li Minzhen took the stage to speak as a representative of the company.

Lee Min Jin first thanked all the fans who watched the film, and welcomed the fans and media friends who came to attend the party. Immediately, she expressed her apologies and thanks to Chen Xueqian, who could not be present.

Although director Chen Xueqian was unable to come to the scene because of other things, he still expressed his gratitude to all the fans and all the people who followed us in his own way. Director Chen Xueqian plans to donate $10 million of his film proceeds to establish the Disability Protection Fund, which will be dedicated to safeguarding the legitimate rights and interests of people with disabilities. ”

Li Minzhen's last words suddenly startled the reporters present. Many people couldn't help but exclaim on the spot.

10 million US dollars, this is not a small amount, Chen Xueqian actually said that he would donate it.

Regarding everyone's questions now, Li Minzhen replied: "This news is indeed true. And director Chen Xueqian will disclose the whereabouts of the funds he donated on the Internet. Of course, this fund is not only for people with disabilities in Korea, but also for the whole world. In the future, Director Chen will continue to donate more funds to the fund. The cause of benefiting the disabled will be one of the greatest causes he will never give up in this life. ”

At this point, Chen Xueqian has really established his image in South Korea, a director who is enthusiastic about public welfare and cares for vulnerable groups, and never forgets to give back to the society, what else is there to blame the media?

This time, the appreciation party was successfully held, during which Song Kang-ho and Lee Young-woo performed songs and dances from the movie together.

When I saw the reappearance of the scene that caused many tears, everyone in the whole scene was silent, and some of them even had red eyes.

On the second day of the appreciation meeting, the box office of "The Gift of Room No. 7" continued to decline and there was a rebound, although it was not large, but for a film that exceeded 10 million viewers, this rebound was precious.

By the time "The Gift of Room No. 7" was officially drawn, the film finally gained a historical result of 14 million viewers. In the face of this achievement, the entire Korean film industry did not know what to say for a while.

There is no doubt that this film will be remembered in Korean film history, and the only question is when someone will break this historic record.

Just when South Korea was turned upside down by a movie, Chen Xueqian was slapping the table in the conference room of Universal Pictures at this time.

"What is this? Is this called music? Is this what the crew spent nearly half a year on the production of in the later stage? Are you going to ruin my script? Chen Xueqian stood in the conference room and asked loudly.

The leading actors sitting at the bottom were a little embarrassed for a while, Chen Xueqian served as the screenwriter and producer of "Despicable Me" is about to be released, but Chen Xueqian is very dissatisfied with the soundtrack of this movie.

In fact, not only Chen Xueqian is not satisfied, but the entire crew is also very dissatisfied with the current soundtrack, but they are also a little helpless.

"I strongly disagree with the current dubbing scheme, and I want to redo the soundtrack." Chen Xueqian finally released a killer feature.

In the face of the strong opposition of Chen Xueqian, the producer, Universal Pictures also had a headache, and every time the producer came to check the progress during the production of the film, it would bring a new change to the film.

I have to say that Universal's preparation for this animated film is not sufficient, under normal circumstances, it takes at least 3-5 years for a wonderful animated film to be completed from project approval to production, but this movie is only long, and it is only two years to complete the project.

And the reason why the progress is so fast is completely driven by Chen Xueqian, this guy who seems to be omnipotent, can always provide wonderful solutions to the difficulties encountered in filmmaking.

And this time, the soundtrack was a little unconcerned because Chen Xueqian had been busy with his own movie shooting before, and he was really dissatisfied when he heard it at this time.

However, this crew, which is constantly being matured by Chen Xueqian, is more and more unable to say no in the face of this increasingly influential young man at this time.

This is also the fact that the director of this movie is still a complete newcomer. Although he has shown extraordinary talent in film shooting, it is meaningless for anyone to compare his talent with Chen Xueqian.

For this reason, in the end, the director and even the producer still compromised with Chen Xueqian, and the reason why Chen Xueqian was able to convince the other party so easily was because of his super high work efficiency and the promised low cost.

Recognized by the crew, Chen Xueqian did not bring his own music production team from China this time, but found Farrell Williams, who had just emerged in the United States at this time.

In his previous life, it was made by this music geek known as Fei Dong.

At this time, Farrell Williams was naturally not as mature as later generations, but his talent was obvious to all. Coupled with Chen Xueqian's inspiration on the side, the soundtrack problem that had plagued the entire crew for a long time was solved by Chen Xueqian in just half a month.

When a month later, the entire crew and creators gathered together to watch the final film made by Chen Xueqian, everyone had to admit that the soundtrack co-written by Chen Xueqian and Pharrell Williams was more in line with the artistic conception of the movie.

The film's co-directors Chris Renard and Pierre Cowfen are very depressed, and most of the film that is nominally their first work was actually made by Chen Xueqian.

However, what made them even more helpless was that they had to admit that there was still a big gap between them and Chen Xueqian at this time.

Completing the final film score, the film, which took two years to make, is finally officially completed.

All sorts of publicity about the film followed.

It's just that those things don't have much to do with Chen Xueqian, and he doesn't have time to pay attention to them, his new movie has started shooting!

After making two movies in a row, Chen Xueqian thought about it for a long time and decided to make some changes.

This time shooting a new movie, he is ready to try a new subject.

When the shareholders of Summit Entertainment saw the script handed in by Chen Xueqian, almost everyone was a little confused.

After a long time, the director of the distribution cautiously asked, "Is this script a little too simplistic?" ”

Chen Xueqian glanced at him and shook his head: "This type of film doesn't need to have a complicated plot, as long as the scenes are exciting enough!" ”

Hearing Chen Xueqian's explanation, which was not an explanation, many directors were speechless, and in the end they still chose to believe Chen Xueqian. And even if they want to oppose it, Chen Xueqian has the absolute right to speak in Summit Entertainment. (To be continued.) )
