rising director

Wan Xiaohu could barely resist one or two.
After communicating with his father-in-law Su Zhicheng, Wan Xiaohu also held a press conference to issue a statement on February 2008, 2, the "Qingren" festival, the third day after Spielberg's statement.
……
Farewell, Spielberg.
Not long ago, American director Steven Spielberg resigned as an art consultant for the Beijing Olympics because of the Darfur issue.Mr. Spielberg believes that China has not fulfilled its due responsibilities to Darfur.
I don't know how China should fulfill its responsibility in Mr. Spielberg's view.It is reported that Spielberg supports the Iraq war, so does the country have to learn from the way the United States treats Iraq, cut off political and economic relations with Sudan, and send a large army to fight in Madarfur?
On the Darfur issue, the Chinese government provided international humanitarian assistance in a timely manner, providing a loan of 8000 million US dollars to build a water plant, fundamentally solving one of the root causes of the war, water shortage, and raising a large number of materials to aid refugees.China is also the first country to send peacekeeping troops into Darfur.
Mr. Spielberg, shouldn't we go to Darfur first and listen to what the mainstream of the international community and Darfur refugees have to say about the Chinese government before making a decision?
The country is a state of etiquette and benevolence. Under the instructions of Premier Zhou, we adhere to the Five Principles of Peaceful Coexistence and do not interfere in the internal affairs of other countries.Chinese people do what they say. We never invade others and insist on peace, because we understand the value of peace, and war is not a necessary means to solve problems.
Thank you, Mr. Spielberg, for treating me as a good friend. I would have been very happy in the past.When I was young, I grew up watching Hollywood movies. When I entered the film school, the teacher always explained the beauty of Hollywood movies.At that time, Spielberg was the idol of many of our directing students.
When I saw "Schindler's List", I was so shocked, and felt the same for the Jewish people, because in World War II, China was also ravaged by Japanese militarism, and 1780 million soldiers fell under Japanese guns , 1740 million ordinary people were innocently killed by the Japanese.During the eight years of anti-Japanese war, he also received help from people from all walks of life in the world.
The bloody misery has taught the people of the country a truth, peace is precious.
I think Mr. Spielberg recognizes this truth. I knew it when he made "Schindler's List".But I think that Mr. Spielberg is also forgetful. He remembered Schindler's assistance to the Jews, but he forgot the assistance of the Chinese people to the Jews.
While the country suffered from the Japanese invaders, from 1938 to 1940, Mr. He Fengshan, who served as the country's consul general in Vienna, issued "life visas" to 18000 Jews who were about to go to the slaughterhouse.Historical facts have proved that this act of righteousness is more commendable than that of the German businessman Schindler who saved 110 Jews during World War II.
As the director of "Schindler's List", Mr. Spielberg, do you know that 60 years ago, there was a diplomat from a country who pretended to be Nazis and protected the Jews who were lifeless at that time? Do you know how many Jews settled in Shanghai at that time and were protected by the national government?
Today, China is also assisting the refugees in Darfur in the spirit of international humanitarianism. Why does Mr. Spielberg listen to one side and make surprising acts of "righteous indignation"? During World War II, would you listen to a few words from the Nazis and think that Mr. He Fengshan, a foreign diplomat, was trafficking Jewish people?
Does Mr. Spielberg know that your actions have deeply hurt the peace-loving Chinese?
Today, regarding your resignation, the Beijing Olympic Organizing Committee issued a statement expressing "regret".How magnanimous this is, magnanimous and even contemptuous.The attitude of our people is very clear, no matter what kind of rumors and threats, the country is still the country, the capital is still the capital, and the Olympics are still the Olympics.
This will be the most successful Olympic Games in history, this is the guarantee of the Chinese people.
Farewell, Spielberg.
You are no longer a friend of the Chinese people, and no longer a friend of mine. You have shown us clearly how ugly some people are under the sanctimonious appearance.
Spielberg is gone, the Olympic boycott is here, fine, fine.Both of these things are cause for celebration!

"Wan Xiaohu bombarded Spielberg for being ungrateful and hurting the feelings of the Chinese people."
"The humanitarian crisis in Darfur, Spielberg and Wan Xiaohu disagree."
"Whose approach really cares about Darfur?"
"Wan Xiaohu and Spielberg, who is lying about the Darfur issue?"
A stone stirred up a thousand waves.
As Wan Xiaohu's statement was reprinted by the major media, Hollywood immediately fell into a melee of public opinion. The media that supported the boycott of the Beijing Olympics and the media that did not support the boycott of the Olympics became a mess.Wan Xiaohu also used his status as the major shareholder of Fce Bok to communicate with the management, making Fce Bok slightly inclined not to support the boycott.
In addition, he is also the boss of Wer and Luube, and the three major Internet emerging media in the United States all have shares of Wan Xiaohu, which quickly offset the influence of traditional paper media and greatly increased the influence on American teenagers, which made the original vigorous boycott , becomes self-split.
All the star-riding stars, seeing more and more young people supporting the Beijing Olympics, immediately hesitated.
These stars have great influence, but to put it bluntly, they still have to rely on the money from the audience. If they lose fans because of the boycott of the Beijing Olympic Games, it will not be worth the loss.
If Wan Xiaohu didn't stand up and set off a public opinion war, they might as well follow Mia Farrow and others to cheer and show their humanitarian stance, as well as the so-called democracy and human rights.The public opinion war has started, and if you follow up with the shouts, you will be choosing sides.
No matter which side you choose, you will always offend the other side, so the best choice is to keep silent and not get involved.
Moreover, Hollywood stars were going to protest in front of the Chinese embassy in the United States.Also being disturbed by Wan Xiaohu, many people quit directly. The 28-year-old Wan Xiaohu is already a world-class director, and his future achievements are boundless. There is no need to offend him because of Darfur, which is out of reach.
Especially some big-name stars, they can see clearly.On the Darfur issue, of course they have their own freedom of speech, and they can support whomever they want.But you have to figure it out, Sasha Entertainment has the potential to develop into the most successful Chinese film company, and behind Wan Xiaohu himself is the rising Chinese market.
Is it the benefit of boycotting the Olympics, or the loss of offending Wan Xiaohu and the Chinese market?
Therefore, the boycott that was brewing like a storm ended in dismal.
Spielberg, who was reprimanded by Wan Xiaohu, also remained silent.
this matter.In this way, after more and more countries and organizations announced their support for the Beijing Olympics, they were forgotten by people.
……
Time February 2008, 2.
Not long after the Hollywood screenwriters' strike ended, a small group of Hollywood stars, when interviewed by reporters, clamored to boycott the Beijing Olympics.However, the media's attention is no longer on the Olympic Games in the east of the earth, but turned to Beverly Hills in Los Angeles in the west.
The 80th Academy Awards.The awards ceremony will be held tonight.Honoring all outstanding films, shorts, documentaries and animations from the previous year, as well as filmmakers in general.
At the briefing of the awards ceremony in the morning, Los Angeles officials announced a set of numbers.
此次编剧大罢工,开始于2007年11月5号,结束于2008年2月12号。共持续了100天。最终,编剧协会与影视制片人联盟签署了一项为期3年的临时协议,今后编剧们将从作品的互联网收益获取分成。
According to the agreement, the film and television products played on the Internet, regardless of whether the download is charged or not.The screenwriters must be paid at least 1200 US dollars per episode in the first two years, and a 2% dividend of the screenwriter's income will be given from the third year.
This is a condition that both parties can barely accept.
But the loss of this general strike is huge.The impact of the film industry is that the shooting of dozens of films is blocked, and the impact of the TV industry is that more than a dozen TV stations have no programs to show, and a large number of viewers are lost.Some popular TV series will resume filming in time, and some niche TV series will not have screenwriters take over until after autumn, or even cut them in half.
There has also been a huge impact on the peripheral industries of the entertainment industry.
According to the official data of Los Angeles, the strike caused the screenwriters involved in the strike to lose about 2.7 million U.S. dollars in wages, and other staff engaged in film and television entertainment production suffered a salary loss of about 5 million U.S. dollars, causing a direct loss of more than 10 billion U.S. dollars to the local film and television industry. Indirect losses even reached as high as 32 billion US dollars.
According to statistics, the losses of Wan Xiaohu's Sasha Entertainment, Po Animation and Marvel Comics are as high as more than 1000 million US dollars.
The biggest loss was the crew of "Angels and Demons", the sequel to the film adaptation of the novel "The Da Vinci Code". That year, the film adaptation of the novel of the same name brought a box office of 7.58 million US dollars for Sasha Entertainment, so it was published by the author of the novel. After the prequel was released, Sasha Entertainment quickly adapted it into a movie.
Coincidentally, it became the first victim of the screenwriter's strike.
There is no reason for this kind of loss, and it can only be regarded as my own bad luck. Fortunately, 1000 million US dollars is just a drop in the bucket for Sasha Entertainment and Abao Animation.Compared with [-]th Century Fox, which is said to have lost hundreds of millions of dollars, it is much luckier.
"Ger, you are taking advantage of the fire!" Tom Rodman, the co-chairman of Twentieth Century Fox, complained to Wan Xiaohu who was sitting in a chair, sipping coffee slowly.
Tom Rodman has every reason to complain that 2007 was not a lucky year for [-]th Century Fox.Because of the large sums of money poured into the endless filming of "Avatar", they don't have the ability to make more blockbusters.
Can only tinker with some small-budget films, and the results have achieved good results. "The Simpsons", "Juno", "Al and the Chipmunks" have all made money.However, the only blockbuster "Fantastic Four 2: Appearance of the Silver Surfer", which had finally placed high hopes, lost money at the box office.
Taken together, the film industry barely maintains a breakeven.However, the scriptwriters went on strike, causing heavy losses to its Fox TV station. Several programs with good ratings were all suspended, and the direct loss was over [-] million US dollars.This is not counting the loss of the number of viewers lost in the future.
If you don't make money, you still pay money. The dividends of [-]th Century Fox at the end of the year are pitifully small, and the stock price continues to fall.
