Director’s Legend - Chapter 354
After announcing the project of “The Fantastic Drifting of Juvenile School” with Li Yu, the media on both sides of the strait widely reported the news.
“The most outstanding directors on both sides of the strait will join hands to produce a classic movie!” This is the mainstream view of the media.
At the same time, some media said: “This time the cooperation of “The Fantasy Drifting of the Youth School” will surely be one of the landmark events of the integration of the Chinese film circle in the future!”
Because Shao Shuaijun and Li Yu are one of the most famous directors on the mainland and the other is the most famous director on Baodao, the height of their identities determines the significance of this collaboration will be far greater than the actual situation. “News Broadcast” did not hesitate to introduce the news in one minute during prime time.
“Today, Dream Chasing Golden Harvest Entertainment Group, together with Summit Entertainment Group and Dream Chasing South Asia Film Company, jointly invested and created a new film “The Fantasy Drifting of Juvenile School”, which was announced in Beijing. The film is adapted from the famous novel by Jan Martel. Tell the magical story of a shipwreck. The film will be directed by the famous director Li Yu, and the famous director Shao Shuaijun will be the producer. It is expected to meet with a large audience from the end of 2012 to 2013.”
“Dreaming Jiahe General Manager Yi Jianmei said in an interview that the film is co-operated by two of the best Chinese directors. This is an attempt by Dreams Entertainment to build a world film industry chain, and it is also a support for the directors’ declarations of the three regions of the Taiwan Strait. Through the cooperation of the two directors, we can explore a way to improve the industrialization of Chinese-language films and realize close cooperation among the entire Chinese-language film circle.”
At the Cross-Strait and Hong Kong Film Directors Seminar in January, led by Li Yu and driven by a group of people with lofty ideals, the seminar issued a declaration to promote the development of Chinese-language films and form the industrialization of Chinese-language films. Development and promote the integration and rise of Chinese-language films.
The Junior School is an attempt. The crew will shoot movies according to Hollywood production standards and attract Chinese filmmakers. Together, in the process of creation, they will find a suitable filming path for Chinese movies. Li Yu will pass on Hollywood’s usual filming methods to all Chinese in the crew through this filming.
Shao Shuaijun will also teach Hollywood’s advanced models as much as possible during the production process.
Chinese filmmakers have never lacked artistry. What they lack is the exploration of the industrialization of films. What they lack is their own style. I hope they can get some inspiration from this kind of Sino-US filming. After seeing clearly how Hollywood movies are made, I will have a deeper understanding of Chinese-language movies.
After the news of the project, it was the traditional Chinese New Year’s Eve and Spring Festival.
After three days of New Year’s day after returning to his hometown, Shao Shuaijun flew to the United States with a large family. The filming schedule of “Night Watcher” has to be hurry up, because after a while, he will start directing “Avengers” and take time to participate in the production of the boy group, which will be very busy.
However, with the company of his wife and children, Shao Shuaijun’s enthusiasm was renewed, and the shooting work was quickly advanced.
Just like Summit Entertainment’s booming development, it is also advancing rapidly!
On February 14, Summit Entertainment and Paramount Pictures held a press conference.
At the meeting, Summit Entertainment announced that it would acquire Paramount’s special effects company Digital Domain at a market price of US$178 million. Summit Entertainment CEO Mitchell said at the press conference: “This time the acquisition of D2 is a close part of Summit Entertainment’s global strategy. D2 is a great special effects company. Cooperating with D2 will inevitably bring new things to Summit Entertainment. leap.”
On the same day, the official website of Summit Entertainment released a message: “The Summit Special Effects Company under Summit Entertainment will be integrated into D2 and merged with the Dream Special Effects Company under Chasing Dream Golden Harvest to form Golden Harvest D2. Golden Harvest D2 is a special effect under Dream Chasing Golden Harvest. The company. Jiahe D2 will use the Chinese market as an opportunity to find new ways to rise.”
The former CEO of D2, John Texto, has been officially appointed as the CEO of Jiahe D2. He left a message on the official website: “D2 has been losing money for more than three years. We have strong special effects processing capabilities and are good at solving 80 problems in the later stage. Problem, solve 20 problems in 3D. D2’s 3D technology research and development capabilities are the world’s top, and the use of Houdini (3D graphics processing software) is also the world’s top. But we have not achieved technical excellence in our operations. This All the employees of Jiahe D2 and I are full of confidence when we can join a large global company that is rising strongly and move to a new film market with huge potential at a time!”
Shao Shuaijun, who was filming, received the news of the successful acquisition of D2, and took the time to meet with John Texto and had a semi-formal conversation about the prospects of the special effects industry. From the reform of special effects technology to the future development direction of the film, I talked about everything, and it was a pleasant talk.
Later, Shao Shuaijun published a bib on his twitter and time bib: “I talked with John about the future development of Jiahe D2. We all believe that a foothold in the Chinese market is the best way for D2 to transform. Dreaming entertainment in the future There are a lot of movies to be produced. Whether it is IMAX or 3D, they need a lot of special effects processing. Jiahe D2 will be a powerful supplement for the company. Oh, by the way, the second filmed “Night Watcher” has been named “Night Watcher: Reflection “The shooting has reached the final stage, I am full of expectations for it!”
Several news were released one after another, and the situation in the global movie circle was suddenly disturbed.
When “Time” voted for the 2010 Person of the Year, Shao Shuaijun lost to Facebook’s Mark Zuckerberg by a narrow margin, missing the year-end cover character. As a result, this week, the US edition of Time Magazine once again selected Shao Shuaijun as the cover character.
The cover inscription given by Time Magazine is: “He is changing the world more and more!”
Since 2006 single-handedly entered Hollywood, based on Summit Entertainment, Shao Shuaijun has completely rewritten the pattern of Hollywood that has continued for decades. Acquiring Marvel Comics, hitting the Big Six, financing Lionsgate, topped the box office in 2010, planned to acquire MGM, and now acquired one of Hollywood’s best special effects companies D2.
Everything that Shao Shuaijun has achieved, perhaps without the Facebook created by Zuckerberg, has changed the way the entire youth socialize, with such a huge impact and influence. But Shao Shuaijun’s influence was continuous and far-reaching. In this era of global interconnection, whoever controls public opinion is the uncrowned king.
Undoubtedly, the youngest uncrowned king is Shao Shuaijun!
In the past, Summit Entertainment focused on movies and its influence was still limited. However, this year began to make frequent moves. This is to create a state of public opinion. “Times” believes that Summit Entertainment’s actions are more than just these steps. Last year Summit Entertainment makes too much money.
Only by spending money can you continue to make money. Summit Entertainment is bound to spend money in 2011.
“It can be expected that in the future, this young man who represents the’world dream’ will bring more and more impact to the United States and the world. Such an outstanding young man is a trend-setting man of the times!” “Times” Finally, with this sentence, the introduction to Shao Shuaijun ended.
The expectations of Time Magazine are not bad.
Zuckerberg used Facebook to go public to gain unlimited wealth, and then began to acquire various companies to build an Internet empire.
Shao Shuaijun also used Dream Chasing Entertainment to gain infinite wealth, and then this year, he began to buy entertainment companies to build an entertainment empire.
The media was immersed in the uproar of the acquisition of D2. The US media reported relatively little about this acquisition. D2 suffered losses every year, and the acquisition was predictable. The domestic media reported frantically that there are no special effects companies in China, or no blockbusters. Now Dream Entertainment has finally begun to show off and acquire D2. In the future, this world special effects giant will become a Chinese company.
How could it not be so happy.
Only Dream Entertainment has this courage, and it still has a firm layout at the moment when the special effects industry is bleak.
The establishment of the New Electronic Technology Research Institute, the reserve of new film technology, and the acquisition of top special effects companies. They are all big moves that shake the Chinese film circle.
But just as everyone thought, the acquisition of D2 was the biggest effort by Summit Entertainment in the special effects industry. A week later, another blockbuster fell into the entertainment circle.
“Breaking news! Summit Entertainment has signed a contract with George Lucas, the father of Star Wars, and the two parties jointly submitted a takeover offer to the US government. After acquiring D2, Summit Entertainment has set its sights on Lucas, who owns ILM. The film industry, the ambition of integrating the special effects industry is clear!”-“New York Times” front page headline.
Peak Entertainment originally planned to release the news after the acquisition was confirmed, but as the “New York Times” accidentally obtained the news and disclosed it, there was no need to hide it. In a subsequent acquisition statement by Summit Entertainment, it was determined that Summit Entertainment would spend US$3.95 billion to acquire Lucasfilm with half cash and half stock! “
“The craziness of Summit Entertainment reappeared, and the sky-high price of Lucas Pictures is to build a giant aircraft carrier in the special effects industry! It is reported that George Lucas will give up Lucas Pictures in exchange for 3.4 Summit Entertainment shares, second only to Shao Shuaijun and Mitchell Bruce have become the third largest individual shareholder of Summit Entertainment! Lucas Pictures will be on the same level as Marvel Comics, and will only report to Li Xiuxiu, general manager of Dream Entertainment Group!”-“Wall Street” The front page headline of the Daily.
“The New York Stock Exchange has confirmed that Lucasfilm officially listed today and stopped stock trading. It will wait for the acquisition to be confirmed before trading.”-“The Times”.
This is a big earthquake that shocked everyone.
In just one hour, the news spread all over the world. As a well-deserved leader in the special effects industry, Industrial Light & Magic, a subsidiary of Lucasfilm, is definitely a symbol of Hollywood, surpassing the existence of D2 more than ten times. And Lucasfilm is not only ILM, but also the “Star Wars” series of films that have spread worldwide.
“The transaction has been completed 80, and only after the final review of the US government antitrust organization, Lucasfilm will become a subsidiary of Summit Entertainment.”
“Top Entertainment held a press conference. The next generation of world king Shao Shuaijun, the father of Star Wars George Lucas, confirmed to attend the conference!”
The news can be said to have bombed the world, and the whole world will pay attention to this upcoming press conference. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!)
