From August 27th to 29th, the last weekend of August, "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" finally handed over the championship title in the North American box office rankings. It only received 12 million U.S. dollars this week. However, its overseas results were still so dazzling, with a total of
72 million U.S. dollars, and the global box office total is 630 million U.S. dollars, officially surpassing "Teddy Bear".
"Shao Shuaijun has become the most outstanding director this year. He alone has received nearly 1.3 billion US dollars in box office this year, becoming the most dazzling director in 2010!" - "Hollywood Entertainment Repays".
"The man who changed the landscape of Hollywood!"
Although "Times" did not use Shao Shuaijun as a cover character, it still published a detailed report on the impact of Shao Shuaijun's latest movie "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" on Hollywood.
Since Warner Bros. brought "Harry Potter" to the big screen, New Line Cinema also brought "The Lord of the Rings" to the big screen, and then Walt Disney brought "The Chronicles of Narnia" to the big screen.
Screen. Hollywood film companies have been looking for best-selling novels that can be adapted to the big screen.
It's a pity that not everyone can find such a novel. As a result, Shao Shuaijun, an outsider, put Summit Entertainment on the track of rapid development with his "Twilight Saga", and the subsequent "Hunger Games" even contributed to the best-selling book
The trend of adaptation. This has directly caused the copyright fees for the adaptation of global best-selling novels to rise to a whole new level.
If best-selling books are just a small change, then acquiring Marvel Comics and launching the Marvel Cinematic Universe trio project is absolutely shocking. In the past, in Hollywood, Warner Bros. played with Superman and Batman, and Sony played with Spider-Man.
X-Men and 20th Century Fox are playing X-Men. It can be said that they are fighting on their own.
Now Summit Entertainment wants to integrate superheroes and turn the original stragglers into regular troops. If this plan succeeds, it can be said that the six major Hollywood companies will become two powers competing for hegemony, Warner Bros., which owns DC, and Summit Entertainment, which owns Marvel.
.
Now "Iron Man 2" has just finished its release, with a gratifying global result of 625 million US dollars, which has strengthened the trio plan. "Captain America" and "Thor" are both waiting, and Marvel's heavy attack has made Warner Bros. nervous
The Batman trilogy directed by Nolan, "The Dark Knight" and "The Dark Knight Rises" were originally filmed at the same time, but The Dark Knight was released and earned $1 billion at the box office. Two years have passed since The Dark Knight Rises.
, there are no plans to release it yet.
It is to deal with the increasingly arrogant Marvel heroes and prepare to throw it out at the right time to compete with the Marvel superhero movies.
Moreover, Warner Bros. has sent someone to rewrite the Superman script, and the newly adapted Superman script has been named "Superman: Man of Steel."
This is all forced by Summit Entertainment.
In this year's total box office, Warner Bros.'s No. 1 position is no longer guaranteed. If Super Hero loses again, where will Warner Bros.' reputation as No. 1 in the world be put?
Shao Shuaijun, a young man, entered Hollywood with his bare hands. No one could have imagined that in less than four years, he would rewrite the entire Hollywood film market. He would take a little-known company, Summit Entertainment, to become one of the six major
ranks first among the top six this year!
Small companies are struggling, Warner Bros. is sitting on pins and needles, but it is Twentieth Century Fox that is really crying.
Warner Bros. is just a little nervous. No matter what, they make money every year. It’s just a matter of making more or less. With DC Comics in hand, they are not afraid of not having superhero movies to shoot. The future is changing, but within ten years, they can ensure that
A stable chair.
Twentieth Century Fox is not so lucky. Since it was acquired by media tycoon Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation, it has not received much support for Fox. It has to shoulder everything on its own, making life very frustrating.
"It is reported that 20th Century Fox has dismissed the vice president in charge of the film library. It was this vice president who made the decision to package and sell all the rights to the "Planet of the Apes" series to Summit Entertainment. This is how Shao Shuaijun came to be
The "War for the Planet of the Apes" he directed is a global hit!" - "The Sun".
""Avatar" failed to make further progress, the box office of "The Wolverine" was not as good as expected, the copyright of the "Planet of the Apes" series was lost, the stock price of 20th Century Fox has been declining significantly this year, and the management urgently launched "Avatar 2" to save the market." - "New York"
Times".
"The stock fell, the planned new version of "Fantastic Four" was confirmed to be aborted, and 20th Century Fox executives revealed that the rights to Daredevil and the Fantastic Four may be returned to Marvel Comics this year or next." - "Denver Post"
Newspaper".
Twentieth Century Fox is the only one that can compete with Summit Entertainment in terms of news exposure. Summit Entertainment is all about good news, and it is all about tragedy, becoming two extremes among the six. Strictly speaking, Twentieth Century Fox is not losing money.
"Avatar" had high production costs and high box office, making a lot of money. "The Wolverine" also did not lose money, and "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" has not yet been released, so no one knows that "Planet of the Apes" still has such value.
But the problem is that what Twentieth Century Fox does always deviates from expectations. "Avatar" originally cost 500 million U.S. dollars and took 5 years to make. Economists and film professionals calculated that the global cost of "Avatar" is 2.5 billion U.S. dollars.
The US dollar was the expected value, but the result was that it did not receive 2.2 billion. The same is true for "The Wolverine". Experts expected it to exceed 100 million in the opening week, but in the end it only received more than 80 million.
As for "Planet of the Apes", it was an unforeseen disaster. It was entirely a matter of vision. However, following Fox's lesson, major companies have tightly guarded their film libraries. Fox has sacrificed itself for others and set a negative example for everyone.
In short, during this period of time, "War for the Planet of the Apes" crushed 20th Century Fox.
Those who stand out in the world will always step on others to get to the top.
If Summit Entertainment wants to be an entertainment giant, other film companies will have no choice but to be stepped on.
Before autumn has even arrived, Summit Entertainment has turned Hollywood upside down, stepping on other companies and ascending to the top. And Shao Shuaijun also won box office success and numerous praises with his film "Rise of the Planet of the Apes".
In the eyes of reporters, James Cameron sharpens his sword in five years, while Shao Shuaijun sharpens his sword five times in one year. In a silent battle with the king of the world, if you can’t compete with quality, you must compete with quantity! The confrontation between the old and new generations
, worth writing home about!
Furthermore, Christopher Nolan is the king of darkness, domineering and profound, just like his movies, as charming as a whirlpool. But Shao Shuaijun is the king of change, with an eclectic style, and no sloppiness between changes, just like the stars in the sky.
, dazzling. The competition between the two stars on the same stage is also worth writing about!
Therefore, they desperately explored the topic and set off rounds of hype storms.
"Shao Shuaijun and I are friends. I think his thinking is genius level. "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" is a great movie, and Shao Shuaijun is a role model for commercial directors." Christopher Nolan said this when a reporter asked
Answer what he thinks of Shao Shuaijun.
After Shao Shuaijun found out about it, he reciprocated and accepted an interview with a reporter from Time.com, praising Nolan: "Nolan's achievements are brilliant. His understanding of movies is profound and unique. When it comes to his achievements in commercial movies,
, is groundbreaking and irreplaceable.”
Cameron said in an interview: "I am very happy that a young director has achieved such high commercial achievements. I have a great preference for technology. I heard that Shao also prefers technology. I feel that although we have not met,
We will be friends."
Shao Shuaijun's response was as follows: "Cameron has been using technology to change the film world. His preferences have a huge impact on me. Our attitudes towards technology are the same. I look forward to working with him one day. I
I think I have a lot of ideas that I would like to ask him for advice.”
When the reporter asked about the duel between the old and new kings of the world and the merging of the twin stars, the three people shook their heads at the same time: "I never compare anything. I just do what I should do and make the movie I like. All this is enough."
.”
It can be said that after the release of "Rise of the Planet of the Apes", the media's view of Shao Shuaijun has reached a new level. In the past, people would still advocate the Chinese director of The Three Musketeers, but now Shao Shuaijun has become a candidate for the king of the world, and is regarded by Hollywood as the one with
A leading figure in future world movies like Nolan.
The praise is endless, just like Shao Shuaijun's hope and care for his son are also endless now.
"Honey, eat an apple."
Shao Shuaijun handed over a peeled apple.
"If I don't eat, I'll eat it every day. I'm tired of it." Li Xiuxiu sat on the rocking chair and enjoyed the cool air under the grape trellis. This grape trellis was planted before the villa was built. Li Xiuxiu liked the grape trellis very much.
"How can I do it if I don't eat it? According to the doctor's instructions, today's three apples are enough. If I don't eat them, how can my son have enough nutrition?"
Li Xiuxiu was angry: "You know your son now, and your son has not been born yet, so you have forgotten about me as my wife."
"How could it be." Shao Shuaijun immediately came over and gave Li Xiuxiu a smack on the face, "Do you think I am a man who has forgotten his wife after having a son? I am afraid that my son will not have enough nutrition. If he absorbs your nutrition, you will not get it.
It’s nutritious.”
"I hate it, you just don't care about me anyway." Li Xiuxiu said coquettishly.
"What a huge injustice. I even refused Wang Zhonglei's invitation to drink and stayed at home peeling apples. It's just because I know that my wife doesn't like to eat apple peels. This is not caring."
"Who wants you to stay? My parents and elder sisters are here. I can't find anyone peeling apples."
"Hey, my dear wife, what can I do to prove that I care about you more than anything else?" Shao Shuaijun spread his hands helplessly.
"Well..." Li Xiuxiu thought for a while, "I want you to cut the apple into small pieces and feed it to me."
"Although it's troublesome, for love it's all a piece of cake!"
Shao Shuaijun immediately ran to find a tray, then cored the apple, cut it into small pieces, inserted a few toothpicks, and brought it over: "Haha, the delicious apple salad dinner is here! Come on, wife.
Open your mouth."
Li Xiuxiu then ate the apple proudly.
Seeing Li Xiuxiu eating happily, Shao Shuaijun was also happy, and little Shao in his belly must be happy too.
"Honey, I composed a poem for you to listen to?" Shao Shuaijun put down the plate, cleared his throat, took Li Xiuxiu's hand and said, "You are from Yuanmou, Yunnan, and I am from Zhoukou, the capital. I took your little furry hand, Take a bite. Ah, it is love that makes us walk upright."
After saying that, he kissed Li Xiuxiu's hand.
"Hate."
Li Xiuxiu laughed and laughed. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel is better and updated faster!)
