From August 27th to 29th, the last weekend of August, the North American box office chart, "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" finally handed over the title, and only received $12 million this week. However, the overseas results are still so dazzling, with a total of $72 million and a cumulative global box office of $630 million, officially surpassing "Teddy Bear".

"Shao Shuaijun has become the most outstanding director of the year, he alone won nearly $1.3 billion at the box office this year, becoming the most dazzling director in 2010!" - "Hollywood Entertainment Repays".

"The man who rewrote the Hollywood landscape!"

Although Time magazine did not use Shao Shuaijun as the cover character, it still had a detailed report on the impact of Shao Shuaijun's latest movie "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" on Hollywood.

Since that year, Warner Bros. put "Harry. Porter was brought to the big screen, and the new line of films also brought "The Lord of the Rings" to the big screen. Disney brings The Chronicles of Narnia to the big screen. Hollywood studios are always on the lookout for best-selling novels that can be brought to the big screen.

It's a pity that not everyone can find such a novel, but Shao Shuaijun, an outsider, brought Summit Entertainment to the track of rapid development with a "Twilight Zone", and the subsequent "Hunger Games" fueled the trend of bestseller adaptations. This has directly led to the adaptation copyright fee of the world's best-selling novels, which has risen to a whole level.

If bestsellers are just a small change, then the acquisition of Marvel Comics and the launch of the Marvel Cinematic Universe Trio plan are absolutely shocking. Formerly Hollywood. Warner Bros. plays Superman and Batman, Sony plays Spider-Man, and Twentieth Century Fox plays X-Men, so to speak, they are fighting on their own.

If this plan is successful, it can be said that the six major Hollywood players will become two powers, Warner Bros. with DC, and Summit Entertainment with Marvel.

Now "Iron Man 2" has just finished its release, and the global $625 million is gratifying. Firm in the footsteps of the trio project. "Captain America" and "Thor" are all waiting. Marvel's heavy punches made Warner Bros. nervous. The Batman trilogy directed by Nolan, "Batman: The Dark Knight" and "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises" were filmed at the same time, but the Knight was released. and received $1 billion at the box office. Two years have passed since the rise. No release is planned.

is to deal with the increasingly arrogant Marvel heroes, and prepare to throw it at the right time to compete with Marvel superhero movies.

And. Warner Bros. has sent someone to rewrite the Superman script, and the newly adapted Superman script has been named "Superman: Man of Steel".

This is all forced by Summit Entertainment.

In this year's total box office, Warner Bros. No. 1 position is no longer guaranteed, if the superhero loses again, where will Warner Bros. lose the world's No. 1 face.

Shao Shuaijun, a young man, entered Hollywood with his bare hands, and no one would have thought that in less than four years, he would rewrite the pattern of the entire Hollywood film market. Brought a little-known small company, Summit Entertainment, to the ranks of the six majors, and this year it is the first of the six majors!

Small companies look at it, Warner Bros. is on pins and needles, but it's Twentieth Century Fox that is really crying.

Warner Bros. is just a little nervous, no matter what, they make money every year, it's nothing more than a matter of earning more and earning less, holding DC Comics in hand, and not afraid of not having superhero movies to shoot. The future is changing, and within ten years, they will be able to secure a stable chair.

Twentieth Century Fox is not so lucky, since it was acquired by media tycoon Murdoch's News Corporation, the support for Fox is not large, everything has to be carried by himself, and life is very aggrieved.

It is reported that Twentieth Century Fox has removed the vice president in charge of the film library, and it was this vice president who was in charge of the original decision to sell all the copyrights of the "Planet of the Apes" series to Summit Entertainment. This is the global hit of "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" directed by Shao Shuaijun! —The Sun.

"Avatar" failed to go further, "Wolverine" did not meet expectations at the box office, the copyright of the "Planet of the Apes" series was lost, Twentieth Century Fox's stock fell significantly this year, and the management urgently launched "Avatar 2" to save the market." -- The New York Times.

"The stock fell, the new version of "Fantastic Four" planned to start filming was confirmed to be aborted, and Twentieth Century Fox executives revealed that the rights of Daredevil and Fantastic Four may be returned to Marvel Comics this year and next." - The Denver Post.

In terms of news exposure, Twentieth Century Fox is the only one that can compete with Summit Entertainment, which is all good news, it is all tragedy, and it has become the two extremes of the six. Strictly speaking, Twentieth Century Fox did not lose money, and "Avatar" had a high production cost and a high box office, making a lot of money. "Wolverine" did not lose money, and "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" did not come out, and no one knew that "Planet of the Apes" still had such value.

But the problem is that in the twentieth century, Fox's actions are always wrong with expectations. "Avatar" was originally a cost of 500 million US dollars, and even the time took 5 years to make a masterpiece, economic and film people calculated that the global 2.5 billion US dollars was the expected value, but the 2.2 billion did not arrive. The same is true of "Wolverine", experts predicted that it would break 100 million in the opening week, but only got more than 80 million.

As for "Planet of the Apes", it is a disaster that is unreasonable, it is completely a matter of vision. However, with the lesson of Fox, major companies have covered their film libraries tightly, and Fox can be regarded as sacrificing itself to make a negative teaching material for everyone.

In short, during this period of time, "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" trampled on Twentieth Century Fox fiercely.

The people who are at the top of the world will always step on the top of others.

Summit Entertainment wants to be an entertainment giant, and other film companies can only be stepped on.

Before autumn came, Summit Entertainment turned Hollywood upside down, stepping on other companies and forcibly ascending to the top. And Shao Shuaijun also won a popular box office and countless praises with a "Rise of the Planet of the Apes".

In the eyes of journalists, James. Cameron is five years sharpening a sword. Shao Shuaijun sharpens five swords a year. The silent battle with the king of the world, if you can't fight for quality, you can fight for quantity! The confrontation between the old and new generations is worth writing about!

Furthermore, Christopher. Nolan is the king of the dark, domineering and deep, just like his films, as charming as a whirlpool. Shao Shuaijun is the king of all kinds of changes, with an eclectic style, and there is no mud and water between changes, like stars in the sky. Dazzling. The twins are competing on the same stage. It's also worth writing about!

Therefore, they desperately excavated the topic and set off round after round of hype.

"I'm friends with Shao Shuaijun, I think his thinking is genius-level, and 'Rise of the Planet of the Apes' is a great movie. Shao Shuaijun is a role model for commercial directors. A reporter asked. Christopher. Nolan replied what he thought of Shao Shuaijun.

And after Shao Shuaijun knew. reported Li Toutao, in an interview with a reporter from Time.com, touted Nolan: "Nolan's achievements are brilliant. His understanding of cinema is profound and unique, and his achievements in commercial cinema are groundbreaking and irreplaceable. ”

Cameron said in an interview: "I'm very happy to have a young director who has achieved such a high level of commercial success, I have a very big preference for technology, I heard that Shao also has a preference for technology, I think although we haven't met, we will be friends." ”

Shao Shuaijun's response was as follows: "Cameron has been using technology to change the film world, and his preferences have had a huge impact on me, and our attitude towards technology is the same. I'm looking forward to working with him one day, and I think I have a lot of ideas to ask him for. ”

And the reporter asked about the duel between the king of the old and new worlds and the fire of the twin stars, and the three of them shook their heads at the same time: "I never compare anything, do what I have to do, make my favorite movie, all this is enough." ”

It can be said that since the release of "Rise of the Planet of the Apes", the media's opinion of Shao Shuaijun has reached a new level. In the past, everyone would still advocate the Chinese director The Three Musketeers, but now Shao Shuaijun has become a candidate for the king of the world, and is regarded by Hollywood as a future world film leader like Nolan.

The touting is endless, just like Shao Shuaijun's hope and care for his son now, which is also endless.

"Wife, eat apples."

Shao Shuaijun handed over a peeled apple.

"I don't eat it, I eat it every day, I'm tired of it." Li Xiuxiu sat in a rocking chair and enjoyed the shade under the grape trellises, which were planted before the villa was built, and Li Xiuxiu liked the grape trellises very much.

"What can I do if I don't eat it, according to the doctor's instructions, the amount of three apples today, how can my son's nutrition be enough if he doesn't eat it."

Li Xiuxiu was annoyed: "You know your son and son now, and your son has not been born yet, so you forgot about my wife." ”

"How so." Shao Shuaijun immediately leaned over and took a sip on Li Xiuxiu's face, "Do you think I look like someone who has a son and forgets his wife, I'm afraid that my son won't have enough nutrition, and if you absorb your nutrition, you won't get nutrition." ”

"I hate it, you just don't care about me anyway." Li Xiuxiu is coquettish.

"It's a big wrong, I even refused Wang Zhonglei and their invitation to drink with me, and stayed at home to peel apples. It's because I know that my daughter-in-law doesn't like to eat apple skins, and that's not a concern. ”

"Who wants you to stay, there are parents, big sisters and big sisters, I can't find who to peel apples."

"Hey, good daughter-in-law, what can I do to prove that I care about you more than anything else?" Shao Shuaijun helplessly spread his hands.

"Hmm......" Li Xiuxiu thought for a moment, "I want you to cut the apple into small pieces and feed me." ”

"It's troublesome, but it's all piece of cake for love!"

Shao Shuaijun immediately ran to find a tray, then cored the apples, cut them into small pieces, inserted a few toothpicks, and brought them over: "Haha, the delicious apple salad dinner is here!" Come, the wife opens her mouth. ”

Li Xiuxiu ate apples proudly.

Seeing Li Xiuxiu eating happily, Shao Shuaijun was also happy, and Xiao Shao in his stomach must also be happy.

"Wife, I made a poem for you?" Shao Shuaijun put down the plate, cleared his throat, took Li Xiuxiu's hand and said, "You are from Yuanmou, Yunnan, and I am from Zhoukou, the capital." Grab your little furry hand and take a bite. Ah, it's love that makes us walk upright. ”

After speaking, he kissed Li Xiuxiu's hand.

"Nasty."

Li Xiuxiu laughed and laughed. (To be continued......)
