The Olympic Games are getting closer, and the whole country is filled with the atmosphere of sports. Shao Shuaijun is busy dealing with the company's affairs this May Day, and in the meantime he has to accept an interview with "High-end Interview". This program can be said to be the highest among CCTV interview programs.
The interviewees are all political celebrities and top figures in various industries.
Shao Shuaijun rarely appears on TV. So far, he has only appeared on Sun TV's "Interview with Yang Lan", Time.com's "Celebrity Face to Face", "Movie Signal" jointly run by Sohu.com and "Beijing Entertainment News", and CCTV's "News"
"Serial" and "Economic Half-Hour", and perhaps several talk shows in the United States.
Apart from this, Shao Shuaijun can only be seen in press conferences and interviews with media and magazines.
"High-end Interview" wanted to interview him, so it was hard for Shao Shuaijun to refuse. Moreover, being able to appear on this program was an affirmation of his success. The audience the program faces are all high-level and high-quality people, such as those with knowledge
Molecules, experts, scholars and lovers of international current affairs.
Although the program was too professional and the ratings failed to increase, and the CCTV reform program was eventually suspended, it was still the most authoritative program of that era. Host Shui Yijun alone interviewed more than 70 people
world leaders, you can see the influence of the program.
As early as April, Shui Yijun personally sent an invitation letter and wanted to interview Shao Shuaijun. Shao Shuaijun was filming a movie in the United States at the time and made an appointment to be interviewed after returning to China in May. It was not until this Labor Day that he took the time to sit in.
Interview hall.
On May 2nd, the interview began.
Arriving at the scene, Shui Yijun had been waiting for a long time: "Director Shao, welcome. I'm glad to be able to work with you face to face and have a chat."
"Me too."
The camera started filming when he entered the door. Shao Shuaijun had no expression on his face. Under the guidance of Shui Yijun and the staff, he sat on a chair, and then the staff came over and put a microphone on him.
After correcting the focus of the camera and getting everything ready, Shui Yijun held the interview script in one hand and started: "Before the interview begins, I have to mention that you were born in 1986 and are only 22 years old this year. You have achieved a career at such a young age.
How do you feel about the huge success of the film? Tell us about it?"
Shao Shuaijun was dressed very formally, with a suit and leather shoes, his hair was combed meticulously, and he even wore a rare red tie, which made him look handsome. He squeezed out a smile and said: "I graduated from high school and went to Hengdian when I was seventeen. Before that,
I never thought that one day I would gain so much. I just thought about looking for opportunities to act while learning directing knowledge, and one day become a director myself. When you gain something, you will ask for more.
Achieve bigger dreams.”
"What kind of dream is the bigger dream?"
"A bigger dream than being a director is, of course, to be an excellent director."
“Is a famous director greater than a great director?”
"So to speak."
Shui Yijun took a look at the interview transcript: "Since you started making movies, you have been shrouded in a halo of miracles. Basically all of your movies have been successful, and the shooting speed is also very fast. With the works of screenwriters, there are even more. You
How do you view your talents?”
"Talent is difficult to define. We know that there was Fang Zhongyong in ancient times. Fang Zhongyong was talented. He could compose poems when he was a child, but when he grew up, he was ignored by everyone. Why was he ignored by everyone? Because he only focused on showing off his literary talents.
There is no follow-up study and hard work. Didn't Edison say that genius is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration. A person's talent is also composed of this, a little talent plus a lot of hard work.
"
"Do you think you are a hard-working person? Many people think you have all this because of your talent?"
"I never deny that I have a little more talent than others, and I have a lot of inspiration in my mind. But this is just like a dream. Are dreams wonderful and beyond imagination? Why can some people use these things?
Dreams have become his movies, while others can only regard them as worries? Because when some people are complaining, others are taking action. Many people have seen my success, but not my dedication."
"What kind of sacrifice?"
"Take making a movie as an example, the director is definitely the hardest worker. The audience only needs to spend the price of a movie ticket, or sometimes even just an Internet fee, to enjoy the wonderful two hours and then reflect on it.
A long, long time. But as a director, your first priority is to find the subject matter, then revise the script, divide the shots, find investment, approve the project, prepare the crew, and select the characters. All this tedious work is done in private and usually takes more than a month.
Who can see the intense preparation and hard work?"
"It is indeed very hard, and no one knows it."
"When the crew is set up, you have to start directing and explaining the shots to the actors. Then the actors and staff call it a day, and the director has to check the prints and prepare for reshoots the next day. Like when I was filming "Inception"
》, the directing team was the last to go to bed and the first to get up every day. Three hours of sleep a day, which lasted for more than three months, was very stressful and harmful to the body. Of course, some people may ask, why don’t you take a rest?
?The crew can’t stop once it’s started, because if you take a day off, you still need to spend more. Tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars a day, any amount of waste is included in the cost, just like the cameras we rent, one day
The rental fee is hundreds of thousands of dollars, as well as props, venues, labor and other expenses, all of which force you to complete the most things in the fastest time. Only then can the two hours of the movie be brought to the audience.
enjoy."
…
The interview accepted on the 2nd will be broadcast on CCTV prime time at 8 o'clock in the evening on Sunday the 4th. In the CCTV news that day, this message was broadcast: "International director Shao Shuaijun will be a guest on the 4th.
"High-end Interview", talk about life dreams, welcome to watch."
When it was broadcast, Shao Shuaijun and Li Xiuxiu had just finished dinner at home, sitting on the sofa together, hugging each other and watching TV.
"He is the youngest international director, and his films have achieved good results in the top ten at the global box office. He is a leader in the entertainment industry and a leader in the Internet field. He has his own multinational company. He is a director and an entrepreneur
, his movies led the trend of the times, and his company’s stock price increased twenty-two times after going public.”
On the TV, there were scenes of Shao Shuaijun directing a play, being interviewed, etc., and then switched to the trailer: "Shao Shuaijun, "High-end Interview" will take you to talk about dreams with him."
Shui Yijun appeared on the screen: "Hello, audience friends, welcome to "High-end Interview". This interview is with the great director Shao Shuaijun. Regarding Shao Shuaijun, I think many people have heard of him. He started making movies at the age of eighteen.
, has brought us many wonderful movies in more than four years. I think directors of the same generation as Shao Shuaijun are depressed, because he can always take all the honors on his head and put himself in the spotlight.
His name is engraved in the history of movies. From "33 Days After Love" to "Painted Skin" to "Inception", the box office of Chinese movies has been refreshed and maintained by him time and time again. Looking at commercial movies, Shao Shuaijun is the well-deserved king.
, let’s enter Shao Shuaijun’s movie kingdom.”
After the credits ended, the interview began. When Shao Shuaijun talked about the hard work of filming, Li Xiuxiu asked distressedly: "Ajun, filming is so tiring, can't you just take a good rest for a while? Just treat it like staying with me."
Shao Shuaijun held Li Xiuxiu in his arms and kissed her forehead: "In two years, all the movies I was anxious to shoot will be finished, so I can relax. Now many movies are not being made, which is a pity in my heart."
"I listen to you, but you must take good care of your health. Alas, I don't want to be the general manager anymore. I really wish I could be by your side, take care of you, and cook for you every day instead of eating the food in the restaurant."
"When Dream Chasing Entertainment becomes stable, you can work online, so you can follow me wherever I go to film movies, right?"
"Well, I will also be a director in the future and be your assistant director. What do you think?"
"Can you make movies? Do you know what storyboarding is?"
"Hey, hey, you're looking down on me!"
While the two were having fun, "High-end Interview" continued, and the topic of talent and diligence ended. Shui Yijun asked: "As a director, you are very successful, and as the boss of the company, you are also very successful. Dream Chaser Entertainment Group, now
It is a very diversified group company, involved in the entertainment industry and the Internet industry. How do you plan the layout of Dream Chaser?"
Shao Shuaijun said with a smile: "Our country's entertainment industry started relatively late, but we have such a huge population base, which is an advantage that no other country or region has. The national economy is developing rapidly, and people's material quality of life has improved.
It is inevitable to begin to seek the quality of spiritual life. On this basis, the boom of the entertainment industry is foreseeable, and what Dream Chaser has to do is to cover all areas of the industry and provide the best entertainment products. This is also what we advocate.
We started late in the layout of the entertainment industry chain, so only by gathering all our strength can we stand out and face more problems without shaking ourselves."
“Can it be understood from the perspective of risk resistance?”
"It can be said that a listed company can only ensure the stability of the company if it has more profitable projects. If you simply invest in movies, the risk is too great. After all, we don't know whether a movie will make money or lose money. But if you do
The industry chain, from production, investment, to downstream screening and peripherals, such an omni-channel sales can minimize risks."
"How do you consider investing in the Internet?"
"The development of the Internet is obvious to all, and with the pace of development, it is increasingly intersecting with the entertainment industry. Many of today's entertainment companies are beginning to develop on the Internet, and Internet companies are also beginning to get involved in the entertainment field. This is a
To achieve this kind of integration, if we want to pursue our dream of building a pan-entertainment industry chain, the Internet is an essential component."
"The development of Shijiang.com has only lasted for more than two years. Relying on Shijiang YY, many websites under Shijiang.com have surpassed more early Internet companies. How did you do it?"
"Look a little ahead and focus more on people's livelihood needs. This is my understanding of being an Internet company."
"In the domestic entertainment environment now, what areas need to be improved and perfected urgently, such as the censorship of movies, etc."
Shao Shuaijun thought for a while: "There are many irregularities in the current censorship system. Some are strict and some are lax. For example, we don't have a movie rating system. Some excellent movies may not be rated because they involve violence, blood, and human relations.
It has to be said that it is a pity that it cannot be released through review. In addition, the state's guidance for the entertainment industry is missing. We cannot simply avoid possible problems through review. Industry participants and audiences should be guided. Now
When many children grow up, we will see such and such bad trends. Why, because they are exposed to different things. If they see too much fighting and killing, they must have a tendency to violence. If they see too much hatred of life and death, they will feel guilty in their hearts.
It will definitely become distorted. If you watch too many programs that make unnecessary complaints, you will probably learn to make unnecessary complaints."
"What is the right way to change?"
"Blocking is worse than sparing. If we want to develop a commercial entertainment environment, we cannot simply rely on bans to block it. Instead, we should support entertainment content that is upright or has a positive role in guiding the growth of young people. Let me give you an example. Instead of increasing the input-output ratio of inspirational programs, should better time slots be allocated to entertainment content with more positive energy? Should teenagers and children be shown as few movies as possible during their leisure time? Kill, kill, love and love content?"
Shao Shuaijun was talking eloquently on TV. On the sofa, Li Xiuxiu asked gently: "Is it idealistic?"
Shao Shuaijun shook his head in a funny way: "It is indeed idealistic. How should I put it? What I say is also in line with the topic of radio and television and the meaning above. In recent years, the entertainment industry has been unable to stop the car. It is arrogant and extravagant.
The atmosphere is getting heavier and heavier, and we still hope that the environment can be purified as much as possible. As for myself, I also think that the country should guide, promote righteousness, and encourage positive energy, which is particularly important for the growth of the next generation. One-sided
The pursuit of ratings and commercial interests is indeed polluting the environment. It doesn't matter to us adults. When children's worldview has not yet been formed, being affected by such unhealthy trends will ruin their lives. Our main theme is not too much, but
Less."
Many people think that the country shoots a large number of themes every year to whitewash peace and political darkness. In fact, they are wrong. It is more to cultivate a positive atmosphere. There is indeed a lot of darkness in society, and people eat and do nothing.
Yes, but children need a correct, optimistic, and positive growth environment.
If the main theme is not played on TV, and instead of playing "Battle and Killing" every day, or "Shamat Youth", Korean brothers and sisters, and Japanese animations, isn't this destroying children's world view?
Whether you say Shao Shuaijun is an angry youth or a hypocrite, he insists that no matter how dark the world is, he must give the children, even if it is just a light, to tell them that the world is bright. When the heart is bright, the world will also be bright.
