"Susan Collins, "The Hunger Games", has finally been found!" Shao Shuaijun was overjoyed. He had been looking forward to this novel for a long time. Like the "Twilight" series, "The Hunger Games" has also been adapted into a series of movies.
Popular all over the world. The difference is that "The Hunger Games" was first adapted into a movie, which made the novel popular.
Shao Shuaijun had never researched the Hunger Games, and he didn’t even know who the original author was, so he had no idea how to create “The Hunger Games” and could only wait slowly. Finally, the book “The Hunger Games” came out
.
With excitement, Shao Shuaijun called Mitchell.
"Hey, Shao, what's wrong so late?"
"Mitchell, I saw a good book on Amazon called "The Hunger Games". Search for it yourself. Then buy the movie adaptation rights. I may want to make this movie in the future. The sooner I act, the better.
I don’t want to be snatched away by others.”
"Is the book good? Is the movie adaptation promising?"
"Of course, act quickly!"
Mitchell is a qualified businessman and contacted Susan Collins early the next morning. After some bargaining, he bought the film adaptation rights of "The Hunger Games" and the rights to adapt the sequel. As a contract
After signing, Mitchell handed a set of "The Hunger Games" to Shao Shuaijun. Shao Shuaijun knew that another gold mine had entered his pocket.
"Mitchell, this will be the next "Twilight" series, even more profitable than "Twilight"! This will be our Peak Entertainment's guarantee to become an entertainment giant in the United States and Hollywood!"
"Then let's wait and see, haha."
…
After receiving "The Hunger Games", Shao Shuaijun continued to shoot movies with a happy mood. Sometimes when he is in a bad mood, nothing goes smoothly, but when he is in a good mood, everything goes smoothly. Under this momentum, even if
Scarlett, a heroine whose acting skills are not very good, also perfectly meets Shao Shuaijun's requirements.
"Scarlett. This shot performed very well. Let's take a break and now let's move on to the next set. Gordon and Geoffrey are getting ready." Shao Shuaijun held the speaker and drank tea leisurely.
It is Yuqian Longjing tea specially brought from China. Compared with coffee, tea is still more suitable for Shao Shuaijun.
After Scarlett took off her makeup, she walked aside and chatted with a few actresses. Then when the filming started, she heard loud laughter over there, which disturbed the actors' condition.
Shao Shuaijun stared and shouted with a loudspeaker: "You guys, please stay away from me and don't disturb my filming!"
"Haha, haha." Several women laughed horribly and pointed in this direction.
"Why are you laughing!"
The little girl Chloë Grace Moretz, who played Tom's sister, made a face and said loudly: "We are laughing at a playboy."
"What a bullshit playboy, stay away from me."
"Yeah, he's just a bullshit playboy."
"Hahahaha." Scarlett and others laughed so hard that they couldn't stand up straight.
Shao Shuaijun felt something was wrong and found that several employees were also snickering. He immediately frowned and asked: "Are you all laughing at me? What's wrong with me?"
"Director, you should look in the mirror." An old staff member said kindly.
Asking for a mirror, Shao Shuaijun finally understood why others were laughing. On his face and neck, the two shining red lip marks were so bright. Putting the mirror down, Shao Shuaijun raised his eyes and looked at Scarlett.
No need to ask, Shao Shuaijun was supporting her just now and had a brief kissing scene.
Only she could leave lipstick marks on Shao Shuaijun's face unknowingly.
"Laugh, just laugh, laugh as much as you want, it's no big deal." Shao Shuaijun spread his hands and said nothing. He washed off the lipstick marks on his face and continued to direct the play as if nothing happened.
His calm and indifferent attitude made Scarlett restless. Looking at Scarlett's appearance, Shao Shuaijun smiled and followed the shooting requirements tepidly. If the shot was not good, he would retake it.
, if you shoot well, everything is like the calm before the storm.
At least for Scarlett, this is a more terrifying calm than before the storm.
Shao Shuaijun is really going to get angry. With Scarlett's shamelessness, he doesn't care at all, but the unknown is scary. When you are ready to die, death is not painful, but death will not come if you wait and wait.
, and knowing that death will definitely come, this kind of suffering is extraordinary.
This tactic is now implemented by Shao Shuaijun. It is surprisingly effective against the overly active Scarlett.
"Fight with me, tsk tsk, you're a little too young."
Hiding behind the monitor, Shao Shuaijun smiled sinisterly.
After filming, Scarlett finally couldn't bear it anymore and went to Shao Shuaijun: "Director, great director, I was wrong. You can punish me as much as you want. I promise I will never make such a joke again."
Chinese people are very strict, I understand, okay?"
Raising his eyelids, Shao Shuaijun did not continue to embarrass him, but intimidation was inevitable: "I surrendered so quickly. I still haven't used many methods. Forget it, I see you are sincere in admitting your mistake. Let's do it, we will shoot tomorrow.
For your part, if you can complete ten sets of shots in one day, you are kidding me, just let it go. If you can't do it, you know, it will definitely be many times more uncomfortable than today."
"I promise to complete the mission!"
"make a deal."
The scene on the second day was shot in a bar. It tells the story of Tom and Summer drinking in the bar. A man came to strike up a conversation, and then got into an argument with Tom. It was a very funny scene. For this role, Shao Shuaijun specially made the top
The general manager of the entertainment, Mitchell Bruce, was brought in. He felt that Mitchell had the potential to be a pervert.
"Mitchell, don't be restrained in the next scene. Just like how you usually strike up a conversation in a bar, be natural."
Mitchell looked dark and whispered: "I never go to bars!"
"Come on, your wife is not here, so why bother being secretive? The props, lighting, and photography are all ready, let's start!"
Scarlett and Gordon were drinking at the bar. After reading the lines, Mitchell sat over with a glass of wine and looked at Scarlett: "Yo, how are you?"
Gordon stared blankly, Scarlett reluctantly said: "It's okay."
"Do you live around here?"
"Yes, not far."
"I haven't seen you here."
"Your observation skills are not strong."
Mitchell laughed: "It's funny, you are funny."
Scarlett's face showed impatience.
"I'll buy you a drink."
"No, thanks."
Gordon wanted to say something next to him but didn't say it out loud. This shows that Gordon is still a bit cowardly.
Mitchell looked at Tom with disdain: "Are you with this person?"
Gordon then said: "I am Tom."
Mitchell said contemptuously: "Whatever (what's your name)." Then he said to Scarlett: "Hurry up. It's just one drink. What do you want to drink?"
"I said no, thank you."
"Are you serious, for this guy?"
Tom didn't show much courage in response to Mitchell's provocation. Then Scarlett rushed to say: "Brother, please be polite. I'm flattered, but I'm not interested. Can you go away and leave us alone?"
Mitchell's smile became stiff. Then he looked at Gordon fiercely: "The United States is a free country." The subtext of this sentence is that he can pursue anyone he wants. It also has another meaning: he just wants to
Pursuing Summer in front of Tom has a strong meaning of provocation.
Gordon wanted to make eye contact with Mitchell, but was quickly defeated and relied on drinking to cover up his cowardice.
After staring at Gordon, Mitchell turned around and left, then said: "I can't believe this guy is your boyfriend, haha."
Bang bang bang bang, Shao Shuaijun shouted: "Kah! Perfect, let me just say it Mitchell, you are born to be a philanderer, arrogant and domineering person, your performance is so perfect, it's just like instinct!"
Mitchell was not happy at all, and continued with a dark face: "I'll say it again, I'm not this kind of person, I'm just an actor."
"Come on, explanation is cover-up. Come on, let's move on to the next set of shots. Gordon, wait a minute. You and Mitchell are shaking their fists here. Scarlett, the camera will use your cover to cover up the fight, and Mitchell
You stagger a little, and when Gordon's fist passes by here, you pretend to fall. You know everything, the props, lighting, photography, and extras are all in place! Start!"
Tom, played by Gordon, couldn't bear to be ridiculed like this, so he finally plucked up the courage and punched Mitchell. Then he tried to pretend to smile at Summer as if nothing had happened, and act more manly. However, before he spoke, he was stunned.
Mitchell would knock him down with one punch.
The filming went smoothly, but Mitchell, who was praised so much by Shao Shuaijun, didn't seem excited at all. He even spent money on a dinner, trying to make everyone understand that he was good at acting rather than familiar with the industry...
When mid-April arrives, the last scene ends, and "500 Days with Summer" is finished.
It was originally a simple movie, with no special effects or action scenes, and even the scenes were just a few rooms and a park, and it was shot very quickly.
After shouting "completed", Shao Shuaijun looked at the jubilant crowd, picked up the loudspeaker to signal everyone to be quiet, and put one hand behind his back. He had something to say: "Every time a movie is completed, there will be an inexplicable feeling of excitement and sadness.
, a crew is like a big family. For more than a month, we laughed together, studied together, and worked hard for a goal. I want to say thank you to everyone. Your excellence made the filming of the movie so good.
If everything goes smoothly, the shot will be perfect."
"I want to thank the photographer, the prop master, the lighting engineer, the sound engineer and everyone else. You are behind the scenes. Half of the credit for the movie belongs to you. The remaining half belongs to the actors and to Geoffrey A.
Lund, Clark Gregg, Patricia Belcher, Rachel Boston, Minka Kelly, Chloë Grace Moretz, Matthew Gray Gubler and others also belong to Joseph Gau.
Den Leavitt and Scarlett Johansson.”
Everyone shouted: "It also belongs to you, director!"
Shao Shuaijun put down the speaker, then walked into the crowd and looked at Scarlett: "Scarlett, I have always had a headache with you. You are the only one in the entire crew who ignores my authority. But I still want to thank you.
, adding infinite joy to the crew, so, this is dedicated to you!"
After saying that, Shao Shuaijun suddenly stretched out his hand behind his back, holding a bottle of champagne with the cork loosened. He shook it suddenly, then pulled out the cork and sprayed it towards Scarlett Johansson like a fountain.
Champagne. It was mid-April, the weather was getting warmer, and Scarlett was wearing a singlet.
Caught off guard, Scarlett screamed and then became wet all over, outlining her perfect figure. Of course, her face was in a mess, and her hair was wet with champagne and stuck to her face.
"Hahahahaha!" Shao Shuaijun ran away with the empty bottle, "Scarlett, this is my revenge for your atrocities for more than a month!"
"Ah! I'm going to kill you, China Shao!" Scarlett shouted, grabbed a bottle of champagne from the table, which had been prepared long ago, and then chased Shao Shuaijun around the crew.
"As for your short legs, wait until you catch me!" Shao Shuaijun sarcastically said without mercy.
Gordon also shouted: "Guys, what are you waiting for? Come on together!"
For a moment, champagne mixed with sweat, and the lipstick was the same color as foundation.
Of course, it is also mixed with the photographer's plea: "Oh, be careful, don't spill it on my camera! Oh, please pay attention to me, you are responsible for it if it gets wet!"
So, the crew of "500 Days with Summer" was disbanded, parting in laughter and reluctant to leave in joy. Shao Shuaijun was covered in champagne and personally sent off every well-fed cast and crew member
. Then he takes a shower, goes to bed, and welcomes a new day. Others’ tasks are over, and he still has to participate in post-production editing and production.
It took Shao Shuaijun a week to edit "500 Days with Summer" and handed it over to Mitchell to follow up on subsequent production and promotion. Shao Shuaijun returned to China. It is now early May, and the shadow of summer has arrived.
In one month's time, he will be twenty-two years old.
This birthday, he has to make careful plans, not to celebrate the birthday, but to propose. Then he will take Li Xiuxiu to travel around the country during this summer vacation. Of course, before that, he also needs to deal with various things accumulated by the company.
Reports and documents.
The company's recent expenditures are relatively large and require Shao Shuaijun's final decision.
This includes the acquisition and development of games that Shao Shuaijun explained last year. Several games that Shao Shuaijun was most concerned about were finally acquired through various means. Among them, US$10 million was used to fully acquire the American game
Japanese ot-games company, this company is developing lol "League of Legends".
The other transaction was US$12 million to fully acquire South Korea's SLE-GATE company, which had just developed CF "Crossfire". At the same time, it also spent US$4 million to purchase part of "Crossfire" from South Korea's neowiz-games company.
"Cross Fire" copyright, in this way, CF has completely fallen into the hands of Dream Chase Entertainment.
Another larger acquisition was the acquisition of South Korea's neople company for US$100 million. This company's work is dnf "Dungeon and Fighter". However, it was developed in 2005 and has become very popular in South Korea, so
Acquisition is a lot of trouble and the price is high.
Originally, these games should have fallen into the hands of Penguin in 2008, but with Shao Shuaijun, Penguin was unlucky, and the three old hens that laid eggs flew away. And under the Dream Chaser Entertainment Group, there is another company with an unlimited future. Company, Dream Chaser Game Company.
