rising director

"Commercialization can't be done well, who will you show your art to?" Wan Xiaohu said a lot, without any scruples and no scruples.

After giving the reporter so many good materials, Wan Xiaohu handed over the microphone to several other directors for everyone to talk about.

In this way, the more than one hour press conference ended in a lively manner.

……

No matter how the outside world hypes up this general election, it has not affected Wan Xiaohu.

He scolded directors of artistic films, and also directors of commercial films for losing their money. Not many people can get along with him. His status, qualifications and achievements are here. Even the Hollywood media praised Wan Xiaohu as one of the greatest directors in the world. One, there is no one who does not open his eyes to contradict him.

At most, they would curse a few words behind their backs, such as "arrogance", "arrogance", and "pretending to be compared".

Just like that, the affairs of the directors' association were suspended, and Wan Xiaohu immediately flew to the United States to accompany Jessica and her daughter to the old man's house to spend Christmas.

In my spare time, I think about how to reform the directors' union.

If he is not in his position, he will not seek his own affairs. Since he is the chairman, he must make a name for himself and not live in a daze.

"There is a long way to go to build the Directors Association into the most influential organization in the country, and even to designate industry norms! But this is not a problem for me. I have limited energy alone, which doesn't mean I can't let my team help me make suggestions. I'll put up a name and let professionals help me with the directors' association affairs, I'd better concentrate on making my movies and enjoy my life!"

0386【An Yingang】

Not surprisingly, on the day of the Laba Festival, the 11th Cross-Strait and Hong Kong Film Directors Seminar was held in Hai. Nansan. Yaya. Longwan. Hundreds of film directors from the Directors Association, Hong Kong Directors Association and Taiwan Directors Association gathered together , a heated discussion on the future development of Chinese-language films.

Wan Xiaohu, as the leader of directors in mainland China, very bluntly proposed at the meeting to unify the directors' associations of the three places across the Taiwan Strait.

"Chinese-language films should be included in a unified framework. I have also discussed with directors on the mainland these days. The Film Directors Association will be reorganized and formed into a pan-directors association. I think that no matter whether it is Hong Kong films or Taiwanese films, they should cooperate with us. Together, we will create a real director industry organization that can influence the entire Chinese-language film industry."

Naturally, his remarks were not supported by the Taiwan Directors Association and the Hong Kong Directors Association.

Wan Xiaohu didn't care either, he had already hired a team of consultants to advise him.These consultant members include retired old filmmakers in China, experts in the Hollywood film industry, and a group of technical officials from radio and television.Spending a lot of money, and relying on his own fame and industry status, is enough to promote the reorganization of the Pan Directors Association.

Now the Taiwan Directors Association and the Hong Kong Directors Association don't support it, it doesn't matter, Wan Xiaohu has plenty of ways to poach the wall.Golden Harvest Entertainment does not have too many Hong Kong directors, such as Mak Siu-fai, Zhuang Qiang, Lu Jianqing, Zeng Zhiwei and other directors have a strong relationship with Wan Xiaohu. It is not difficult to invite them to join the Pan Directors Association.

Taiwanese director, Wan Xiaohu is sure to persuade Ang Lee to join.Ang Lee and Wan Xiaohu both hang out in Hollywood and have a good relationship with each other.And recently, Ang Lee is filming "Life of Pi" invested by Sasha Entertainment, and Wan Xiaohu is the producer.Ang Lee joins.It will definitely drive a group of people to join.

Sorry for the rest who didn't cooperate, Wan Xiaohu didn't plan to continue playing with them.

Not joining the Pan Directors Association basically announced that the mainland market said goodbye to these people.

Today's Wan Xiaohu, its subsidiary Tiger International Investment Group, holds Golden Harvest Entertainment Group, Time Internet Group, Sasha Entertainment Group, uTube, Marvel Comics, Abao Animation Studio and other major companies, spanning the US entertainment circle and the Internet.

Even more terrifying.FceBook, Twer, Alipay, Du Niang, Enterprise, and Huayi Brothers, which he invested in back then, have all been listed. Although the equity has been diluted, it still makes Wan Xiaohu the number one millionaire on the planet.His name has not been exposed because he is holding the company through a proxy.

However, it is impossible to guarantee the monopoly of the mainland film market based on its apparent strength.It is still very easy to block Hong Kong and Taiwan movies.After all, he also recruited a group of second-generation officials, especially officials from the Ministry of Radio, Television and the Ministry of Chemical Industry. Many of their daughters were hired by Golden Harvest Entertainment as consultants and secretly received dividends.

For Wan Xiaohu's matter, he will naturally do his best to help.

This is a constant battle.Wan Xiaohu had enough patience to complete the reorganization.

The seminar lasted for two days. On the third day, that is, January 1, many stars and directors came to Yalong Bay from all over the world.Participated in the 13nd China Film Directors Association Commendation Conference.The entire conference was star-studded, not inferior to the Golden Horse and Golden Statue and the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Biao.

In order to support Wan Xiaohu's work.Li Xia came here with all the artists under Flashing Star, Wang Lei also brought all the artists under Huayi Brothers, and Wang Jinghua also brought all the artists under Orange Sky.In addition, the first-line big stars who joined in the show, the four major female roles, the fourth minor female roles, and Shuangbing.

And Wan Xiaohu's international superstars, Chen Kun, Song Hye Kyo, Huang Xiaoming, Liu Yifei, Liu Dehua, plus veteran international stars Cheng Long, Zhou Runfa, Zhang Yi, Gong Li.

The entire Yalong Bay has become a veritable Oriental Hollywood.

This year's Directors Guild Awards were presented in a lively manner, and those participating in the awards must be domestically produced films released in the Mainland in 2010, or co-produced Chinese films with investment from Youfang.

"Tangshan Earthquake" won the annual film, Wang Xiaoshuai won the director of the year with "Sunshine in Chongqing", and Xu Jinglei won the young director of the year with "Du Lala's Promotion".Wang Xueqi became the actor of the year in the eyes of the director with "Sunshine in Chongqing", and Xu Fan became the actress of the year in the eyes of the director with "The Great Earthquake in Tangshan".

Xue Xiaolu won the screenwriter of the year with "Ocean Paradise", and Lin Chaoxian became the director of Hong Kong and Taiwan of the year with "Informant".

Xie Tieli, an outstanding film director of the older generation, won the Director Award for Outstanding Contribution, also known as the Lifetime Achievement Award.

In this way, the 2nd Commendation Conference came to a successful conclusion.

……

The chores are basically over, and the New Year’s Eve is not far away. Wan Xiaohu first flew to South Korea to accompany Jun Zhixian and his son Wan Chengjun until the end of the year, and then returned to the capital, with his real wife Su Ya, his son Wan Chengyang, and a big family , had a happy Spring Festival.

This time, Wan Xiaohu stayed in the capital until after the Lantern Festival, and then resumed his work from last year.

Back in Santa Monica, Wan Xiaohu directly summoned the director team members of the "Gravity" crew: "Several, I spent more than a month thinking about it. I didn't plan to shoot "An Yin Gang", but now We decided to reshoot it and use it to participate in some film festivals before the feature film.”

"Aningan" on the last track is an easter egg of "Gravity", shot by director Alfonso Cuarón's son Jonas Cuaron, it is to correspond to the feature film, the heroine talks to the earth in the spaceship That episode.Because the spacecraft has deviated from the original channel, the passage was blocked, and the space agency could not be contacted, but accidentally contacted a fisherman named Aningang in the ice and snowy Greenland.

The fisherman Aningang can't speak English, and the heroine can't speak the native dialect of Anyingang, an Inuit, but the two people who don't understand each other accidentally chat about homework with each other.

Originally, Wan Xiaohu didn't want to shoot anymore. First of all, he had to go to the ice and snowy Greenland to shoot scenes. Secondly, it was just an easter egg, so there was no need to waste this money.

However, since the Beijing Film Festival will be established this year, he has to support it no matter what. The production of "Frozen" and "Gravity" has not been completed, so he has to restart the short film "An Yingang" to create momentum.

"There is nothing special about this short film alone. After all, it is an easter egg that exists for mutual benefit. So I plan to modify it to make it a real story. In addition, I decided to challenge the long shot. I Let this 7-minute short film be shot to the end!" Wan Xiaohu said confidently.

"How to modify?"

"Let Aningon and his dog be the protagonists!"

Just do what you say, and there is no need to call the crew. Wan Xiaohu just took the director team, and then asked the staff of Sasha Entertainment to help arrange the itinerary, and then drove directly into Greenland, which is within the Arctic Circle.

As the largest island on earth, Greenland is almost a kingdom of ice and snow. It originally belonged to Denmark. In a referendum in 2009, it declared autonomy.It has taken over natural gas resources management, judicial and police powers from Denmark, and has some foreign affairs powers, but the Kingdom of Denmark has the final say on Greenland's defense and foreign affairs.

Except for one-third of the Danes in Greenland, most of them have Inuit (Eskimo) descent, and they speak Greenlandic and Inuit languages ​​that ordinary people cannot understand.
