Director’s Legend

() In Huang Bo's rented house, Shao Shuaijun met Ning Hao. Speaking of which, Ning Hao is also a graduate of Nortel, but he was admitted to Beijing Normal University first, and then transferred to Nortel's photography school halfway. In 2001, his student film "Thursday, Wednesday" won the Best Director of the Beijing University Student Film Festival and the Silver Award of the China University Student Film Digital Media Competition.

The debut work "Incense" has also won many awards in various countries. This year's work "Green Grass" was selected for the Berlin Film Festival, Hong Kong Film Festival and Shanghai Film Festival. He can be considered a new star in the ranks of directors, but there are three hundred directors like him in the whole country, and it is estimated that no one in the audience has heard his name out of 10,000 people.

After receiving the invitation from Huayi Brothers, Ning Hao agreed without even reading the script. He rushed over from his hometown overnight to read the script at Huang Bo's place.

"Hello Director Shao." Seeing Shao Shuaijun coming in, Ning Hao greeted him very stiffly. Although he is older than Shao Shuaijun, he is a teacher who has never learned before. Shao Shuaijun is already a billionaire box office director, and coupled with his youthful demeanor, there is still a lot of pressure on him.

People's temperament is hard to tell, but it really exists, just like facing an ordinary person, ordinary people will never care, but suddenly telling this ordinary person that he is the governor, I am afraid that he will not be so calm, and his hands will be restrained. Status determines status, that's true.

"Ning Hao, hello." The plagiarist stood in front of the plagiarized person, Shao Shuaijun also blushed a little, but his acting skills were good, and he still looked extraordinary, "When will you arrive, don't call me, I can go Pick you up."

"I just arrived in the morning, so I'm not ashamed to call you. Xiaojun went to the station to pick me up. I planned to go directly to the hotel at the International Hotel, but I wanted to read the script earlier, so I brought Xiaojun here. I didn't expect to bother Director Shao." I’m really sorry to come here myself.”

"What's the matter, I don't mind being alone in the hotel. I just came out for a stroll. By the way, I've read the script. How about it? Are you confident that you can shoot it well?" Going off to the subject, politeness is really not his style.

When it came to the script, Ning Hao immediately put aside his shyness and began to talk endlessly. At the moment, several people are in Huang Bo's rented room less than 20 square meters, drinking boiled water, talking about old movies and new movies.

"Director Shao, I've watched "Crazy Stone". The movie is well shot and the story is well told, but there is one thing that I don't think is right. I don't know if I can say it."

"But it doesn't matter."

"The irony is not enough, and the connotation is not deep enough! Stone itself is a comedy, but I think it should be more profound, and the ending should be repaired. For example, the death of real estate agent Feng Dong feels too dramatic and rash. Package It is enough for Shihong to give his wife an emerald, and he should not be arranged to win the prize for capturing the robber..."

"I have considered what you said." Shao Shuaijun is very satisfied with Ning Hao. This young man has a heart that loves movies. Many directors have watched "Crazy Stone". When Shao Shuaijun talked with them, he found that most of them The director is simply watching a story, and even looks down on this kind of movie from the bottom of his heart.

Most of them hold blockbuster and literary films and refuse to let go, and despise any film innovation. Shao Shuaijun despises such directors. Ning Hao is not. Like Shao Shuaijun, he reveals his support for film innovation in his words. Such an attitude will inevitably allow him to create his own style in the future.

Considering his tone, Shao Shuaijun explained: "First of all, regardless of whether a movie is good or bad, what needs to be considered is whether the audience will recognize the movie when it is released. If the audience does not approve, it means that it has no box office. The purpose of making movies is to make money. Therefore, when I was shooting "Crazy Stone", I considered the appetite of the audience. Chinese-language movies have always been comedies, and they are Hong Kong shit and shit movies. Director Feng Xiaogang spent several years cultivating Feng's Humorous, it started to sell well at the box office. Guy Ritchie’s technique itself is chaotic enough, coupled with profound criticism, whether the audience can accept it, and whether the market can accept it, these are the key issues!”

Ning Hao nodded embarrassingly after hearing this: "Director Shao sees the problem much more profoundly than I do. I just made an axe..."

"No, what you just proposed is very good. Looking back now, "Crazy Stone" does have various deficiencies. The movie is over, and we can't change anything. Therefore, I hope that in this "Crazy Stone" With Race Cars, you can make good movies beyond rock."

"With such a good script, I will definitely make a good movie...By the way, can I ask, why did Director Shao give the script to me instead of shooting it himself? With the foundation of the stone, it will definitely be no problem for this car to sell well ah?"

Shao Shuaijun smiled: "I want to change my taste and make some other types of movies." With the success of Stone, it is meaningless to make racing cars, after all, it is the same type of movie.

Huang Bo asked curiously: "Director, what kind of movie is it? Is there a shortage of leading actors?"

"Haha, your image doesn't match the image of the leading actor in this movie. The leading actor must at least be as handsome as me!" Shao Shuaijun rarely boasted.

"Then...this...director, can you take a look at me?" Yue Xiaojun rubbed his palms aside and smiled coquettishly.

"Ah." Shao Shuaijun was stunned, and then patted Yue Xiaojun on the shoulder, "Xiaojun, you have to love what you do, and the job of screenwriting is very suitable for you. Remember, you can succeed only by focusing."

Shao Shuaijun's words were rather tactful, but Huang Bo was more direct: "With your sausage physique, bat looks, and personality than me, I can't even play you, so don't fantasize about it."

"Cut, it's because you don't know how to appreciate it!" Yue Xiaojun pouted, "Director, what kind of movie is it that neither Huang Bo nor I can act in?"

"Sci-fi movies, don't ask if it's done, the details will be kept secret for the time being. Ning Hao, Huang Bo, you all graduated from Nortel, can you take me in and have a look around Nortel? go in."

To say that Shao Shuaijun can be regarded as a young and promising successful person when making movies, the most regrettable thing in his heart is that he failed to get into Shanghai Opera, China Opera and Nortel, and did not go to university. Especially in his previous life, he had always been underestimated because of his academic qualifications. As a director, especially a young director, if he did not come from three prestigious schools, you would be ashamed to say so.

"Nortel's gate is always open. Anyone with long legs can enter, so there's no need to sneak in. Come on, let me take the director for a tour and feel the sacred atmosphere of the university." Huang Bo bluffed, and the four locked the door. Run to the gate of Nortel.

Shao Shuaijun has been to many universities, for example, he visited Shancheng University when he was filming in Shancheng. Compared with Shancheng University's 5,000 to 6,000 mu of land, Nortel is much poorer, covering an area of ​​only 105 mu, and any of the four campuses of Shancheng University is completely overwhelmed by Nortel. However, there are not many students in Nortel, and there are only more than 3,000 students at present, and 105 mu is enough.
