At Hong Kong Airport, Shao Shuaijun walked down from the plane wearing sunglasses and a cap, and saw someone holding a sign from a distance that read "KOW". KOW is the initials of King-Of-the-Word, which means King of the World.

This is Li Xiuxiu's joke about Shao Shuaijun.

When I got closer, I saw Li Xiuxiu wearing a black windbreaker, looking at Shao Shuaijun and his party with a smile, and the two assistants behind were holding up signs.

"Welcome to Hong Kong, the King of the World!" Li Xiuxiu said with a smile, and then opened her arms.

"Wow, Sister Xiuxiu, I miss you to death!" Shao Shuaijun rarely saw Li Xiuxiu taking the initiative, and immediately opened his arms and pounced, ready to give Li Xiuxiu a strong hug.

Then, Li Xiuxiu deftly dodged away from Shao Shuaijun's side and hugged Yang Ying and Wang Cuicui: "Angela, Xiaocui, long time no see." ”

Shao Shuaijun blinked, feeling a gust of wind blowing, so desolate.

"Boss, do you want me to give you a hug?" Li Xiuxiu's assistants, one of whom is an old man from the Dream Chasing Company, has been in the company since Shao Shuaijun's studio, and he is also quite familiar with Shao Shuaijun, so he asked.

Shao Shuaijun immediately put his hands in his pockets and blew his hair: "I'm sorry, my sexual orientation is very normal, and I don't have such a heavy taste." ”

It didn't take long for Yang Ying's grandparents to come to pick her up, and this time she wanted to stay in Hong Kong for a few days, so she approved Yang Ying's leave and asked her to go home for a few days.

"Director Shao, hello, thank you, the baby called us to tell us about the previous things, thank you." The two old men said politely.

Shao Shuaijun responded with a smile: "It's okay two old men, our dream chasing company is an ethical entertainment company, and Yang Ying is an artist we value, so don't worry." ”

After Yang Ying left with her grandparents, Shao Shuaijun suddenly said: "Sister Xiuxiu, don't you think there are a lot of English names named Angela in the entertainment industry?" Why don't we let Yang Ying change her name, how about calling her AngelaBaby? ”

"You're too broad, aren't you, even the name of the artist?"

"Hehe, this is the responsible boss." Shao Shuaijun smiled, Yang Ying in the future, in order to distinguish herself from others, she did change her name to AngelaBaby, and now she doesn't change her name Shao Shuaijun really feels awkward, and there have been several times Shao Shuaijun wants to call her AngelaBaby.

This time when he came to Hong Kong, Shao Shuaijun mainly listened to the report of Dream Chasing Golden Harvest in recent times.

Since the verbal agreement was reached with Ma Yun on that day, formal cooperation has also begun to be discussed, and the way of cooperation has been decided based on several contacts. Alibaba will buy a stake in Dream Chase Golden Harvest from EMI Records for $15 million, and then exchange 50% of Alipay's stake for a 15% stake in Dream Chasing Company, bringing the total stake to 30%.

Subsequently, a series of capital operations will be carried out, and Alipay, Golden Harvest's cinemas, Dream Chasing Film and Television Company, Dream Chasing TV Drama Production Company, Dream Chasing Film Distribution Company, Dream Chasing Music Company, and Time.com will be merged into Dream Chasing Golden Harvest Company as a whole, and the shares will be re-listed and issued.

Dream Entertainment Company will be reorganized into Dream Entertainment Group.

When the new Dream Chasing Golden Harvest Company is listed, with the status of Dream Chasing in the mainland film industry, and with Alipay's strong cash transaction volume, Dream Chasing Golden Harvest's capital will definitely increase several times or even dozens of times, completing the first circle of money. The next step may be to further cooperate with Alibaba and exchange shares for cross-shareholding.

When Alibaba goes public in the future, it will be another money-making action.

"The report is doing well, and the market plans for the far, medium and near are all in place, so let's work hard to make Dream Chase Golden Harvest a large company comparable to any Asian entertainment company." Shao Shuaijun said to the management of Dream Chasing Golden Harvest. After the reshuffle, one-third of the top management has been replaced, and now Li Xiuxiu basically holds the power.

Shao Shuaijun didn't know much about such a complicated matter as going public, just leave it to a special person, and after letting Li Xiuxiu explain what was in hand, everyone finally embarked on the road to the United States. Shao Shuaijun, the storyboard script of "Twilight: Twilight", has been conceived, and only the investment procedures are in place to prepare the crew and start filming.

At the Los Angeles airport, Qian Yongqiang came to pick up the plane.

The post-production of "Painted Skin" is almost completed, and now it has entered the stage of negotiating the release, Wang Zhonglei and Yang Hongtao have been in the United States for more than half a month, running around for publicity.

asked Li Xiuxiu to take people to prepare for the film company, and Shao Shuaijun and Qian Yongqiang went to Hollywood's special effects company together.

In the movie screening room, Gao Yang and Miao Chenshan had already prepared sample films.

After showing the special effects shots one by one, Shao Shuaijun clapped his hands: "Yes, this level of special effects is very much in line with my expectations, it's already April, and it's time for us to edit the sample films, just fragmented clips, it's not easy to promote." Old money, I have to work hard for you again, I don't have much time, stay up all night fighting, right? ”

"Haha, it's finally time for the movie to take shape, what's the point of staying up late. I have been producing movies in Hong Kong for decades, and this time I am the most excited, with a real production cost of 200 million, even if I fight this old bone, I have to gnaw it down. ”

The director's cut is the one that best meets the expectations of the film.

However, sometimes the director's editing is also the most unsuitable for commercial taste, and each set of shots is shot with a lot of effort, just like the director's child. Holding scissors, this set of shots is reluctant to cut, and that set of shots is reluctant to cut, and in the end, a 90-minute movie can be cut to 120 points for the director. A 120-minute movie can be cut to 140 minutes.

If you say, in the first few movies, Shao Shuaijun used it to hone his directing skills, without much change, with the original movie as a reference, if the scissors have divine help, cut them without hesitation. Then this "Painted Skin" is much more difficult, after all, many sets of shots have been modified by Shao Shuaijun, and the ending of the entire movie has also been modified.

It is not an exaggeration to say that he is half a son.

In the face of such a movie, Shao Shuaijun was reluctant to cut it.

"Old Qian, look at this set of shots, how beautiful they are, can you stay?"

"But does it have anything to do with the theme of the movie?"

"Uh...... Perhaps, it can make people relax during the tense interval......"

"Gao Yang, Chenshan, you look at this set of shots, the scene is intense enough, I personally choose to stay, what do you think?"

Gao Yang touched his chin: "This group depicts Wang Jiajun, it seems to be an unimportant supporting role." ”

Miao Chenshan scratched his head: "This person seems to be going to die after all, the fight was so fierce in front, and he died the next moment, isn't it ......?"

"Well, this group...... Deleted! ”

In the painful struggle, it took three days for Shao Shuaijun to finally complete the director's editing of "Painted Skin". At this time, Wang Zhonglei and Yang Hongtao also rushed over, as well as Rob Friedman, co-chairman of Lionsgate.

"Oh, dear Shao, welcome back to Hollywood!"

Rob Friedman came up and gave Shao Shuaijun a bear hug, which was very enthusiastic.

"Hello Chairman Rob, it's a pleasure to see you again, your body is as tough as ever."

"Thank you, I feel like I'm still young. By the way, I heard that "Painted Skin" has finished editing? Oh, I can't wait to see the full movie. ”
