rising director

Wan Xiaohu thought for a while, and a lot of past images suddenly appeared in his mind, and he paused and said: "I think it must be after I went to college, you know, I studied in the director department of the Beijing Film Academy, and it was the first time I met When the camera is in class, the teacher teaches us how to use the lens."

"Before that, you never touched a camera? How could you still be admitted to film school without touching a camera?" The reporter was a little incredulous.

"Yeah, at that time I just loved movies, I read a lot of movies and art books, and I was admitted to film school when I didn't know what a director was, and then you know, I think A different door opened up in my life, and it made me feel freed."

"So you picked up the director's microphone before the end of your sophomore year."

"That's it. At that time, I had no money, because my parents were only factory workers, and it was not easy to support my tuition. I didn't know where the courage came from, so I decided to use DV to make a movie, 50 yuan, I ran It took more than a week to get this sponsorship. I told myself, Wan Xiaohu, you will succeed, just do it!"

"And then it became famous."

Wan Xiaohu shook his coffee cup: "Sometimes I look back and think about what I would be doing now if I had given up at that time. Fortunately, I have not given up my attachment to the director all these years."

"We are also very fortunate, otherwise there would not be so many wonderful movies to enjoy. Haha, how did you grow up before you went to college? Tell us about your childhood story?"

"Actually, it's nothing, it's just going to and from school, fighting with other elementary school students on the way, uh, in general, I am a very honest kid, eating and studying, every year during the Chinese New Year, arguing with my parents Ask for new clothes, and then grow up unknowingly, haha. It’s very monotonous, isn’t it.”

Monotonous, uninteresting.

There is no gold, silver, jewellery, rich clothes, fine food, but ordinary happiness worth cherishing. There is no earth-shattering and unforgettable, but there is a strong family love that cannot be melted away.

This is childhood, isn't it?

0293【Can it be broken】

"Tger, what happiness do you think being a director can bring you?"

"Haha, I have thought deeply about this issue. A long time ago, my idol was James Cameron. I think when he won the Oscar after "Titanic", he said, 'Im-he-Kng- Of-he-world! (I am the king of the world)', very cool, I thought, one day I will also shout out my slogan so beautifully."

The cover of the new issue of Time Magazine is not Wan Xiaohu, but there is a huge centerfold of him on the cover, with one hand in his pocket and the other out, with a serious expression on his face. Although he is not as handsome as the stars, he is charming.

And the title on the insert is the title of the interview: "Movies Make Me Happy."

"I once also designed, if I stand on the podium, what should I say, is 'Im-he-Kng-of-Kngs (I am King Wang)', or 'Im-he-world-of- he-Emperor (I am the Emperor of the World)', you know, 'Emperor' is higher than 'Kng', haha."

"Of course, when you make movies, after many times of success and gaining too much fame and fortune, you will feel that what I am pursuing may not be such a glamorous thing. I hope to hide behind the camera and do what I like to do. I want to shoot those stories that hover in my mind. Occasionally I smile at you through the camera, and you look at my photos and smile knowingly, oh, this person is Wan Xiaohu, I like his movies.”

"I think that might be my greatest joy."

Happiness is so simple, if you like me, I will be very happy.

Wan Xiaohu has enough reasons to be happy.

After getting off to a good start in the first week, the second week soon ushered in. During the three-day weekend from December 12th to 8th, four new films were released in North America.

The film "Unaccompanied Children" focuses on children's growth.This movie has a very talented director Paul Feig directing it, but it just cast a group of unreliable young actors, which looks a bit bad. With a box office of 581 million US dollars, ranking eighth, it is destined to have no future.

And "Blood Diamond" starring DiCaprio Leonardo has gained a good reputation after being screened.The Curse of Sadness expanded to 1910 theaters, and achieved a box office of 864 million U.S. dollars, ranking first.

The female director Nancy Meyers wrote and directed "Love Vacation", and the audience responded that it was mediocre and boring.Then the cost of 8500 million U.S. dollars, only got 1270 million U.S. dollars in the first weekend, destined to hit the street.

The only refreshing new movie is "Apocalypse" directed by Mel Gibson. As a typical representative of directors who are good at acting, Mel Gibson has not won any decent actor awards, but with "Braveheart" Won an Oscar for Best Director.Envious of a large number of directors.

This week, "Apocalypse" came in second with $1500 million.

At the top of the list, of course, is "Never Ending", which won the championship again, with 2100 million US dollars, a drop of less than 35%. Even considering that the scale has expanded to 3566 theaters this week, this is also a very good trend. If it is not a strong word of mouth support.It must have fallen faster.

So far, the total box office in North America has reached 6858 million US dollars, making it the best movie in this slightly tired December.

North America's two consecutive victories, the mainland is still the time for "Never Ending", with a single week of 8560 million yuan and a total box office of 14560 million yuan.Refreshed a series of box office records.

The box office record on the premiere day, the box office record in the first week, the fastest to reach [-] million RMB, and the box office record in a complete week.

The user rating on Mtime.com dropped 0.1 points to 8.1 points, and the number of users who rated it has exceeded 4.

【☆BlssSng☆】Given five stars, and talked about something: "Never-ending. Well, I can't tell the reason, it's a good story. I thought it was going to explain that you can't do things opportunistically. Yes, but the story doesn’t make sense in the end, anyway, it feels good to shoot, and it’s very emotional, such as color.”

[Happy Soul] Five stars: "One star for Andy Lau, one star for Wan Xiaohu, and the remaining three stars for the movie."

[jckewng] Four stars: "The boss is more and more fond of playing cool, but this movie really has no theme. In the end, Liu Dehua is still taking drugs. Do you encourage everyone to take drugs? The three views are not right. Three views No. But I just think it's cool!"

[Wujian Scholar] Four stars: "It's too hard to use a long lens, and besides, where can I buy this medicine?"

[Leng Xinyin] only gave two stars: "Hgh, the one who gets the last laugh is the one who has the last laugh. There is no connotation other than being cool, so it's a bad review."

[kylz] Five stars: "It's very simple to sum up, you can't afford to mess with people who open cheats! Haha, does the boss also play games?"

[Ji Jian Wu Trace] is also five stars: "I think it can be ranked among the top three most obscene movies in history. There is only one sentence for the spoiler: He is very good, very good, very good... Andy still looks like this Handsome, but I didn't find out where the boss is, did he really wash his hands?"

[Aniu Little Brother 1] Five stars: "The depth is not as good as "Butterfly Effect" and "Source Code", but it is cooler and more passionate than the previous two. Of course, commercialization is becoming more and more obvious."

【The Reader of Fengyun Tianxia】Four stars: "When I read it, I almost jumped up, it was so f*cking, what kind of medicine is this, I really want to take one and taste the feeling of becoming a superman."

Amidst the applause, of course there was also scolding.

Especially some movies of the older generation, they are almost cursed.

"How does the radio and television review movies? Is it possible to wantonly distort the values ​​if you are famous? "Never Ending" is a cancer at all. Wan Xiaohu is already impetuous. The excessive commercial success has made him lose his original simplicity." Tian Zhuangzhuang, the fifth-generation director, directly named and criticized.

Luo Sanli, a well-known education expert, also published an article saying: "In North America, the rating of "Never Ending" is PG-13, which means that children under the age of 13 cannot watch it. There is no rating system in China, and the movie is for all audiences. We must reflect on it. , Is this kind of movie suitable for children to watch! Our filmmakers should also pay attention. You can't touch everything!"

Wan Xiaohu, who had already flown to China and was about to be interviewed by CCTV's "High-End Interview", was blocked at the airport. When the reporter mentioned this, Wan Xiaohu answered seriously.

"I think the movie is a storyteller, and "Never Ending" is just a small story. I didn't let the bad guys beat the good guys. I didn't let the good guys kill and set fire. In the end, the police wiped out all the evil forces. It's not very good. Do you have to explain everything clearly, the protagonist successfully quit the drug and became a law-abiding citizen? Can't you leave a little room for imagination?"

"Wan Dao, there are some people who criticize it. "Never Ending" made people who get something for nothing succeed. Is this value incorrect?"

"I don't understand who gets something for nothing. Is it the male lead? First of all, he is a writer with hands and feet. He has never done anything bad. It's just that he was a little bit down. He worked hard, and finally relied on drugs Inspired the potential. It succeeded, but also experienced many dangerous things, and finally helped the police catch the bad guys. Isn’t this hard work? So what is hard work? Is hard work called hard work? Don’t all directors have to do it? Is it reasonable to make an educational film?"

As soon as Wan Xiaohu's words were reported, they immediately sparked a debate. Both famous and unknown directors from all over the country expressed their opinions.

And online.Almost one-sided to Wan Xiaohu.

[Plug on the Pegasus] Post support on the post bar: "There are always some people who see the boss's movies are good, sell well, and they are not convinced, and point fingers and pretend to be big-tailed wolves. There is a kind of you to make a movie with three views and a high box office. Look, if you can do it, go ahead, if you can't, don't babble!"

[Tim: Qi Ling] put it more directly: "Wan Xiaohu is rich and famous internationally at the age of 26, what makes him! Why does he make a movie with the sum of our lifetime and multiply it by 250? He just doesn't like it." Bird him. What can you do to me—that is, the boss has low qualifications. In the past few years, he has suddenly stepped on other people’s heads. These people’s mentality can’t be changed for a while. Movies are textbooks."

No matter whether you scold or stand up, Wan Xiaohu doesn't care anymore.

After finishing the recording of "High-End Interview", I made an intercourse with Su Ya, went to South Korea to find Jun Ji-hyun to do what I love to do, and then I went back to Hollywood, ended all my promotional work, and started to devote myself to another job. Arrange recording for "Kung Fu Panda". "

After two years in the making, "Kung Fu Panda" is finally coming out.

Panda Po's stomach is already very hungry.

"Jessica, are you interested in dubbing Jiaohu?" After returning to the villa, Wan Xiaohu asked with his arms around Jessica.

"What about you? Do you want to voice the animals too?" Jessica asked back.
