Director’s Legend

Chapter 381: [Stars and Handprints]

In the past year, "Thailand" has been painted lively, and the entire mainland market has madly won 1.266 billion yuan, becoming the dominant box office in mainland film history. It also set off a craze in Thailand. Countless mainland tourists chose Thailand as their destination to visit the interesting places in this movie.

The New Year’s Day, the Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons, which was released on February 10, 2013, also began the journey.

In just a few days, it showed the strong appeal of director Zhou Xingxing, and his box office performance was sky-high. I got 82.99 million yuan on the first day and 570,977 million yuan in the first full week, breaking many records. The goal is to go directly to the throne of the champion of "Thailand".

After the Spring Festival, Shao Shuaijun went to the United States.

The first four magical series directed by Chen Jiashang, "The Legend of the White Snake: The Legend of Green Snake" has been post-production in the United States. Although both D2 and ILM have been acquired, their headquarters are still in the United States. Shao Shuaijun came to supervise the post-production, and also paid attention to the post-production situation of "Iron Man 3".

After watching the half-film "Legend of the White Snake: The Legend of the Green Snake", Shao Shuaijun thought it was pretty good. It lacks the magical cloud cover of the East and the fast pace of the Western magic, which looks much more pleasing to the eye.

The four major fantasy series can be said to be Chinese superhero movies. Since they are superheroes, they cannot be too literary. When Li Yu directed "The Hulk", it was because the literary fan was too full, which led to the box office failure. The pretend to be cool, the main line is clear, and a little psychological portrayal is added, and the rest are carried with special effects. This is a qualified superhero movie.

Instructed the post-production of the two films. On February 24, Shao Shuaijun took his wife Li Xiuxiu and flew to Hollywood. This day is the 85th Academy Awards ceremony. Shao Shuaijun is determined to attend this awards ceremony. In 2013, Shao Shuaijun's schedule is very idle and there is nothing to rush.

This time Shao Shuaijun appeared on the red carpet with Li Xiuxiu. In the past, Li Xiuxiu always hid behind Shao Shuixiu to help him manage the company. Now the company can let go. Shao Shuaijun hopes that the two can be more together and participate in various things.

Just as Li Xiuxiu said back then, I hope that after giving birth, he will hand over the company to produce for Shao Shuaijun. Like Christopher Nolan and his wife, make movies together. That's why this time the couple held hands and appeared on the red carpet.

It can almost be said that after Shao Shuaijun and Li Xiuxiu got off the car, the flash could not stop.

As the most influential director in the world, Shao Shuaijun appeared less and less, and reporters were hungry and thirsty for him. What's intolerable to hunger and thirst is that even if Shao Shuaijun showed up, his wife Li Xiuxiu almost never showed up, let alone the two attending events together. The reporter is most interested in the family life of the celebrities, at this moment, crazy pictures.

Click, click...

Li Xiuxiu was a little unnatural. Shao Shuaijun gently hugged her waist and said: "Are you nervous? You are the head of the entertainment hegemony company. How many celebrities and bosses see you politely to make a smile."

"Can that be the same? At that time, no one took pictures of me." Li Xiuxiu complained.

"Haha, you just assume that they are all small business managers who come to curry favor with you. They are just a bunch of clouds. Every time I walk on the red carpet, so many people watch, I will imagine that they are just a bunch of ants, people see Are ants nervous? Of course not, so I am never nervous." Shao Shuaijun looked around, as if seeing a dense cluster of ants.

With Shao Shuaijun amused, Li Xiuxiu quickly relaxed, walked the red carpet with a smile, and signed on the poster wall at the door. The red carpet host immediately ran over to interview Shao Shuaijun and his wife.

"Director Shao, Mrs. Shao, can I interview you?"

Shao Shuaijun nodded: "Yes."

"This time Director Shao attended the red carpet with his wife for the first time. Director Shao had always attended events alone before. Why did he do this today?"

Shao Shuaijun laughed and said: "We were very busy before, and my wife had a lower-key personality than me, so she was not willing to attend events. Recently, my schedule has been free, and she should not be busy with company affairs. We decided , Do something interesting together."

"Dao Shao and Mrs. Shao have a very good relationship. Mrs. Shao, is D. Shao a qualified husband? In the eyes of us Americans, a male star who has no scandal is a manifestation of insufficient charm.

Li Xiuxiu said embarrassingly: "He is a pure person. In life, he is only interested in movies. I think this is why he is not attractive to other women. But in my opinion, he is very attractive. Handsome and talented."

"is it?"

Li Xiuxiu said affirmatively: "Have you watched his film "Fantastic", there is a sentence in it, I like it very much,'Some people are shallow, some are inferior. One day you will meet a rainbow like A gorgeous person makes you feel that other people are just clouds.' My husband is such a rainbow-like gorgeous person. He makes all the men in the world look inferior and nothing more."

"Haha, my wife, you said that I will become a public enemy of the whole people, but that's how I am." Shao Shuaijun scratched his hair cockily.

"Wow, I think I'm already your enemy of Director Shao now." The host joked.

Another host rushed to say: "Director Shao, based on the 2012 nomination and selection by the Avenue of Stars Committee, will give you a star on the Avenue of Stars to thank you for your contribution to Hollywood to the world film industry in the past time. For your contribution, a star award ceremony will be held on March 1. Are you sure you will accept this star?"

"Although paying a large sum of money (to install, you must pay 15,000 US dollars as a handling fee), you can get a star that was trampled on, but why not. Write your name in history, this is a piece of Very interesting things, at least, it will make you feel that you have become a part of history." Shao Shuaijun smiled.

The Star Awards Ceremony is organized by Summit Entertainment. Mitchell Bruce said that a larger ceremony will be held to demonstrate Shao Shuaijun’s identity and status. There has never been a star left on the Avenue of Stars, with a legendary background like him, and an extremely high status.

In the past, Shao Shuaijun had the opportunity to win stars, only because there were too few awards, and his commercial achievements were not supported by a $1 billion film. This has to be said to be the tragedy of commercial directors, which can be popular in business, but it will always be underestimated in honor.

The king of the world, James Cameron, even if he created "Titanic", he didn't get a star. It wasn't until the birth of "Avatar" that was recognized after being screened on a small scale.

Shao Shuaijun won the stars this time, he also created the most popular superhero movie box office record, and created the second record in the global film history of the personal box office. He also achieved this from grassroots to world-renowned before he turned thirty. Awards.

After obtaining this star, Shao Shuaijun is the first mainland filmmaker to leave his name on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Among the three Chinese who won stars before, Huang Liushuang was a Chinese star from a long time ago. Needless to say, Bruce Lee, and Cheng Long is from Hong Kong, China.

Hollywood sends out dozens of stars every year. Each star is made of a terrazzo, made into a pink five-pointed star, inlaid with bronze and embedded in a dark gray square. Inside the pink star is the name of the awardee engraved on the bronze, and below this is a circular mark representing the area where the awardee receives the star.

Contribute to the film industry, get the movie camera logo; contribute to the TV industry, get the TV logo; contribute to the recording industry, get the gramophone record logo; contribute to the broadcasting industry, get It is the radio microphone logo; the contribution to the live drama is the tragicomedy mask logo.

The star Shao Shuaijun gets will be a star with the logo of a movie camera.

"Get a star and leave a handprint, do you have anything to say?" the host asked again.

Shao Shuaijun shrugged: "Why don't you wait until you install the stars, or when you go to press the handprints, and ask me again?"

This time Shao Shuaijun won a star and will hold a star ceremony. At the same time, he will hold a handprint ceremony in front of the Chinese Theater in Hollywood, leaving his own handprint, footprint and nose print. Stars and Three Seals are two different procedures. Obtaining stars is very difficult, while obtaining Three Seals is easier.

The stars are basically determined by the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce, which means that the American film industry represented by billion Hollywood is recognized. Once the stars are installed, they cannot be moved at will and will exist forever. Li Yu won a lot of awards and still failed to get the stars. It is conceivable how difficult it is, but Wu Yusen only won the three seals and did not get the stars.

Sanyin is more of a commercial propaganda act. It is to leave prints in front of the Chinese theater. Generally, when large companies build momentum for their films, they will help actors and directors to fight for a fingerprint and promote the film.

For example, before the release of "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises" last year, Warner Bros. took Nolan and held a grand handprint ceremony to promote his film. Since 2011, too many prints have been left, and even the prints of many people have been removed from the front of the Chinese Theater.

Whether you press your fingerprints or leave stars, they are all commercial behaviors under the cloak of reputation. Hollywood is full of business.

Under normal circumstances, the stars and handprints will be arranged to promote the promotion of movies, TV, records and so on. After James Cameron got the stars, he chose to install the stars before the release of "Avatar". "Iron Man 3" is about to be released soon, and Mitchell Bruce hurriedly arranged the star ceremony and handprint ceremony for Shao Shuaijun, so it was not for hype.

Anyway, the stars can be installed at any time in the next five years. The installation on March 1 is just a publicity for the release of "Iron Man 3" on May 1, so why not do it.

Shao Shuaijun did not accept more interviews because there were stars coming again, and took Li Xiuxiu into the theater. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!)
