"It's a pleasure to receive this award, I've made three films from last year to now this year, and this production is very high. Fortunately, it is a great encouragement for me to be recognized by everyone, and I will continue to make more good movies to give back to everyone, thank you. ”

Before Shao Shuaijun spoke, he thought of a lot of enthusiastic speeches, and when he got on the stage, he somehow couldn't say a word. After a few words, he walked off the stage, disappointing many of the audience who were waiting to hear his tirade. This young director is too low-key.

In any case, the Beijing University Student Film Festival came to a successful conclusion, avoiding the reporter's interview, and gathered for a meal in the capital, and everyone separated. Ning Hao took a group of people and began to study "The Great Gold Robbery". Liu Yifei is not going to take over TV movies this year, and will fly back to the United States to concentrate on learning dance and vocal music, and her agency Red Star Wood has decided to plan a music album for her and enter the music market.

Although he is not optimistic about Liu Yifei's development in the music world, singing and dancing has been Liu Yifei's dream since childhood, and Shao Shuaijun didn't say much. Xu Yu's "People in Embarrassment" has started filming, and Shao Shuaijun is a named producer, but in fact, he has not been to the crew. However, Shao Shuaijun did not have idleness because of this, and there were many trivial things.

First of all, the All-China Youth Federation sent people over to help Shao Shuaijun go through the formalities and officially joined the All-China Youth Federation. At the same level, the All-China Youth Federation and the Women's Federation are patriotic united front organizations that participate in CPPCC meetings under the leadership of the party. Shao Shuaijun only signed a few words, then took a photo, and obtained a certificate stamped with a bright red steel seal.

And his task this year is to participate in the first plenary committee of the 10th Youth Federation from July 22nd to 24th, and even helped him go through the formalities and said that if he really doesn't have time, he can ask for leave. Shao Shuaijun really likes such an organization, and it is too human.

At the same time, the China Film Directors Association also approached him and wanted to recruit him as a member of the association. Originally, at a commendation conference at the beginning of this year, the Directors Association was going to absorb Shao Shuaijun, but at that time, Shao Shuaijun was discussing the release of "Buried Alive" in the United States, and there was no time, so it has been delayed until now.

There are three directors associations in China, the China Film Directors Association, the Hong Kong Film Directors Guild and the Baodao Film Directors Association. Although CLC was registered and established by the Ministry of Civil Affairs, it still lacks absolute authority under the national conditions of the official standard. It is usually in the name of the Directors Guild that the political axe carries out some cross-strait dialogue.

It is undeniable that it is this kind of political axe orientation that has accelerated the integration of Chinese-language films, promoted mutual cooperation between filmmakers from the two sides of the Taiwan Strait and the three regions, and revitalized Chinese-language films. "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is a great collaboration.

This time, Vice President Li Shaohong personally came to Huayi Brothers Media Group to find Shao Shuaijun. For Li Shaohong's arrival, Wang Zhongjun personally accompanied him, after all, this is the most famous female director of the fifth generation of directors, and her influence is huge.

"Xiao Shao's movies are very good, we in China need new directors like Xiao Shao who dare to think and do. I have always felt that Chinese-language films, especially mainland filmmakers, can't change the pessimism and tragedy that came out of the turmoil, and the films made are very humanistic, but they have never been able to grasp the pulse of business, and they don't bother to grasp it. Therefore, to revitalize Chinese films, the sixth generation of directors like Lu Chuan must inherit the past and the future, and the new generation of directors like Xiao Shao you must have both a pioneering surname and a long way to go. ”

Li Shaohong's expectations for Shao Shuaijun are huge, and he talks a lot. Until Shao Shuaijun and Wang Zhongjun sent Li Shaohong away, Shao Shuaijun still felt very heavy in his heart.

The future of Chinese-language films is bright, but the road in the middle is destined to be tortuous. Shao Shuaijun can guarantee that he will kill a way, but he can't guarantee that Chinese movies can kill a way. At least before he was reborn, there were not many examples of Chinese films succeeding in North America.

A movie that can't conquer the United States can't be called a movie with a world surname, and Chinese movies have a really long way to go.

"What, when Sister Li said it, my heart was heavy, wasn't it?" Wang Zhongjun patted Shao Shuaijun on the shoulder, "Don't be confused by the big truth, doing your own movie well is making the greatest contribution." By the way, "Source Code" is about to be painted, do you have any new work plans? ”

"I haven't thought about it yet."

Leaving Huayi Brothers, Shao Shuaijun went straight to the studio, he actually had a plan for a new movie, but he didn't make up his mind which one to start with. There are too many good movies in the future, and it's a bit picky. In fact, if you think about it carefully, there are not many movies to choose from.

First, the movies must be shot closest to the present, so as to ensure that some good movies are not wasted because of time. Second, the movie can't be a special effects blockbuster, because the special effects are not as amazing as they will be in the future. Third, the box office of the movie must not be low. Fourth, the scenes of the movie can't be too big and complicated, because Shao Shuaijun still needs more small-scale movies to enrich himself and make himself progress.

He is not a rebirth of a big director, but a rebirth of an assistant director who has never been in charge alone, "Buried Alive" and "Source Code" are small scenes, and being able to shoot "Crazy Stone" is the limit. Among these conditions, picking and choosing, Shao Shuaijun soon found that there are not many good movies that are really suitable for current directors, except for some literary films.

The Hollywood blockbusters in my memory, either the copyright of the script cannot be obtained, or the shooting is too difficult, and it is not the most suitable movie at the moment. After all the calculations, Shao Shuaijun put the new movie on an urban workplace comedy.

"The film had a novel version, then a drama version, and then a movie version. Should I find someone to ghostwrite and publish the novel to warm up for the movie? Shao Shuaijun touched his chin and had a plan.

In the process of considering the new movie, the box office of "Source Code" finally came to an end. Lee so-so also flew back from the United States to deal with the box office account.

After more than a month of release, "Source Code" was drawn in various countries from May 20th to May 25th. According to statistics, North America won $62 million, temporarily ranking thirteenth at the North American box office this year. In front of the list are 180 million for "Enemy of Love", 128 million for "Robot", 113 million for "Brave Daddy", 82 million for "Little Ghost on the Road", 76 million for "Midnight Bell 2" in the United States, 76 million for "Hell Star", 74 million for "Sin City", 72 million for "Translator", 69 million for "Boys and Girls in Black and White", 68 million for "Sahara", 67 million for "Coach Carter", and 65 million for "Devil Crying God".

(The previous 71 and 72 chapters were wrong, and the weekly champion was canceled, so you can go back and take a look, it doesn't affect the content)

This is the best achievement of a mainland director in North America, compared with the production cost of about 60 million yuan for "Source Code", it is more than 8 times that of North America alone. Of course, only 17% of the 62 million belongs to the box office share of Chinese companies, which is still because of Lionsgate's generosity and the high box office of "Source Code", otherwise it can only get 13% of the box office.

Therefore, in North America, the actual share of "Source Code" is 10.5 million US dollars, and Huayi Brothers, Poly Bona, Media Asia Variety Show and Shao Shuaijun are four parties, and one party shares more than 2.6 million US dollars, that is, 22 million yuan.
