rising director

at the same time.Huang Xiaoming and Jun Zhixian, who were filming commercials abroad, also rushed over to join in the morning. With the popularity of "My Sassy Girlfriend", the arrival of the two immediately caused a commotion in the local area, the entire outside of the Arhat Temple.Surrounded by water.The reporters who were still surrounding Wan Xiaohu for interviews immediately turned their guns and rushed towards the two of them.

At ten o'clock, the opening ceremony started, and the Shancheng government sent a district chief at the departmental level to join in the show. So, the district chief, the local county chief, Wan Xiaohu, and Ning Hao.Each made a speech.

The district chief also publicly stated that the government would support the filming, and that he would approach the government for needs and difficulties, and they would treat them with [-]% enthusiasm.With the head of the district in front, the county head is not good at making long speeches, but he only affirms the instructions of the head of the district and will do a good job in hospitality.

Then came Wan Xiaohu's speech.

"Respected District Mayor of XX, respected leaders, guests from the news session, folks from the mountain city, good morning everyone. Today. On this sunny and sunny day, the first multi-line channel of the country is grandly held The opening ceremony of the comedy movie "Crazy Stone". Here, on behalf of Dandelion Film Company, the producer of the movie "Crazy Stone", I would like to extend a warm welcome to all the leaders and friends who came to the scene! "I would like to express my heartfelt thanks to all the leaders and relevant departments for their strong support! I would like to express my sincere thanks to the news media for their attention to the movie "Crazy Stone"!"

Wan Xiaohu looked into the microphone.I remembered that someone had written a manuscript long ago.

"From script creation to film project approval, Dandelion Film Company has always adhered to the theme of exploring commercial films in China, gathered a group of outstanding film talents, and completed "Waiting Alone", "Butterfly Effect", "My Savage "Girlfriend" are three successful commercial films. This time, "Crazy Stone" directed by director Ning Hao will be Dandelion's fourth commercial film. It is also a more mature and exquisite film after exploring the market. A sincere dedication..."

The whole manuscript, that is, some high-level topics, is nothing more than bragging about past achievements and looking forward to future achievements. After 5 minutes, Wan Xiaohu finished reading the manuscript.

Then Ning Hao also gave a brief speech.

The master of ceremonies came to the stage and said: "Several leaders and directors have made good expectations and expectations for "Crazy Stone". We believe that the film will become another excellent production with the efforts of director Ning Hao and all crew members." Next, let us ask the head of XX district to uncover the red cloth of the camera for us!"

There was a clap of applause, and the district chief with a big belly stretched out his hand and lifted the red cloth of the camera.

Then Ning Hao, who had already been prepared, sat on the director's chair, Chen Chong took control of the camera, and Huang Bo began to perform the first shot.

After 1 minute, Ning Hao yelled: "Crap, this one is over!"

Crashing, there was another round of applause, the opening ceremony of "Crazy Stone" was completed, and it was past eleven o'clock, and everyone moved to the restaurant to eat and drink.

Wan Xiaohu was preoccupied with other matters, so he didn't drink much in the afternoon, and only had two drinks with the district chief and county chief.Ning Hao, who became a regular director for the first time, got very drunk.In the afternoon, everyone dispersed, the director was drunk, so naturally the filming could not be completed, the production team also dispersed immediately, Wan Xiaohu also left the production team, and Quan Zhixian was also with him.

Long time no see, both of them are already hungry and thirsty, desperately needing to satisfy each other's needs!

After the crazy indulgence, Wan Xiaohu sent away the reluctant Quan Zhixian, and went back to his hometown with his bag on his back.

Now that they have money, it is natural to buy a house and a car for their parents. The final result of the discussion is that they are unwilling to leave Jiangdong.So Wan Xiaohu bought two apartments in the most upscale residential area in Jiangdong, bought two houses for 200 million, went to a car dealership and bought a BMW for his father Wan Cishan to drive, and another Mercedes-Benz S600 for Wan Xiaohu to use as a car when he came back. .

My younger sister, Wan Xiaolan, is in the third grade of junior high school this year, and she is about to take the exam, and she has always had good grades, and she has no problem with the key points of the exam.Even if there is a problem, it is a trivial matter for Wan Xiaohu to spend some money to find a relationship.It happened that Jiangdong's house was still being renovated, Wan Cishan supervised the work in the city, and Li Cuiping took care of Wan Xiaolan in the town.

Then Wan Xiaohu went to Jiangdong's computer college and called out his younger brother Wan Xiaobin.

"Originally, I wanted you to finish three years of junior college in Jiangdong, but I heard from my parents that you are skipping classes here every day, isn't it, it's not good to continue like this. Let me think about it, and transfer your relationship to the capital in the second half of the year , I still want to learn the Internet, your brother has some ideas, and I need you to help me do it in the future."

As a father soldier in the battle, and a brother who fights tigers, Wan Xiaohu still placed great expectations on Wan Xiaobin.In the future, the company will become bigger and bigger, and he won't have time to watch it every day, and there will be few trustworthy people to support the company, so he is really worried.

"I'm going to the capital?"

"Yeah, you're just hanging around for a few days now, and I'll take you there next time I go home."

After arranging everything at home, Wan Xiaohu left for Hong Kong on June 6th.

This time, it is no longer a stay, but a long-term stay.

……

Tuesday, June 2001, 6.Hong Kong Universal Film Company, dozens of staff members of the "Infernal Affairs" crew gathered in the conference room and held a meeting.Because it was a staff meeting, naturally Liu Dehua and other actors did not come, only the behind-the-scenes staff.

Wan Xiaohu sat at the top of the meeting room.Hand holding a staff list.

He is a dragon across the river, and he came across the river alone to make a film. Except for the investment and director, he relied on Universal Films to help arrange everything, including the preparation of the crew.The list is very detailed, and Wan Xiaohu read it carefully.

Producers: Lin Xiaoming, Wan Xiaohu.

Director: Wan Xiaohu.

Assistant Director: Mak Siu Fai.

Assistant Director: Lu Jianqing.

Screenwriters: Wan Xiaohu, Mak Siu Fai, Zhuang Qiang.

Photographers: Lai Yaohui, Guan Benliang.

Costume design: Li Bijun.

Action director: Lin Dian.

Sound recordist, make-up artist...

Lin Xiaoming is the producer.At the same time, he is also the boss of Huanyu, so he naturally became the host and started to introduce: "Everyone is gathered, let me introduce you first, this is the investor and director of "Infernal Affairs". Mr. Wan Xiaohu. Speaking of The name Wan Xiaohu must have been heard by everyone present. He is the most outstanding young director in mainland China and the most outstanding young director in the Chinese film industry. He has directed three films "Waiting Alone", "Butterfly Effect", and "My Sassy Girl", Big hit, big hit."

Lin Xiaoming finished speaking.There was applause in the conference room.

Applause, Wan Xiaohu smiled and nodded to everyone.

"The two screenwriters, Mai Zhaohui and Zhuang Qiang, I won't introduce them. Before you came here, you should have exchanged scripts with them. Director assistant Lu Jianqing, a young man, has worked as a director assistant and assistant director for many movies. , Back then Stephen Chow's "The King of Comedy", he was the director's assistant, and he must be able to do a good job in the service of Director Wan." Lin Xiaoming walked over.He patted the shoulder of a young man wearing glasses.

Wan Xiaohu seems to have heard of this person, and he seems to be the future director of "Chill".

"Hi Dao Wan, everyone, please take care of me." Lu Jianqing looked relatively young, but he seemed very sophisticated when he spoke.

After introducing Lu Jianqing.Lin Xiaoming walked up to a beautiful woman again, and said with a smile: "Although this beautiful woman is young and beautiful, she has won two Golden Horse Awards and one Golden Statue Award for Best Modeling Design. Ms. Li Bijun, the costume stylist for "Legend of Shushan"."

"Hello Wan Dao, this is our first cooperation, if there are any deficiencies, please ask Master Wan Dao to have more." Li Bijun is wearing large earrings, has a good figure, and looks not inferior to many female stars, smiling very sweetly .

Wan Xiaohu nodded: "It's my first time to come to Hong Kong too, I have some apologies, please bear with me."

Then there are photographers Li Yaohui and Guan Benliang, who are young photographers who have emerged from Hong Kong in the past few years and will gain fame in the future.

Compared with the previous few who are younger and less experienced, Lin Dian, the action director, has a lot of background.The younger brother of the famous Hong Kong director Xu Xiaoming has worked hard in the martial arts industry for more than 20 years. "Young and Dangerous", "King Kong", and "The Wind and Cloud Hegemony" are all his masterpieces.

Then the rest of the staff were briefly introduced, and the meeting officially started.

Wan Xiaohu is now popular in Asia with "My Sassy Girlfriend", and has developed a domineering attitude. He put his hands on the table casually and said: "From now on, everyone will eat in the same pot. Since it is cooperation, we must I won't be polite to everyone, I believe I can say a hundred words about what kind of person I am, Wan Xiaohu, and I won't get to know him better after a few days of cooperation."

After a pause, Wan Xiaohu continued: "It has been almost a year since I came into contact with Mai Zhaohui last year and started planning "Infernal Affairs". Yes. The investment of this film is to be determined as an A-level production of 2000 Hong Kong dollars, it’s not a joke, let me talk about my plan.”

"During the shooting, I fully respect the collective wisdom and collective wisdom, but when necessary, my words must prevail. All details must be treated with caution, even if there is a mistake in a light, a small piece of paper, or even a flawed intonation, it must be overthrown and reconsidered." Come, therefore, you must be careful and careful."

"I have already told Producer Lin that the amount of film to be used for the three films, that is to say, the time I plan to shoot will definitely be several times longer than you used to make a film. It is necessary to reinvent the wheel, shoot repeatedly, and work overtime. It's normal. Once I get into the mood, I don't have a good temper. Here, I would like to apologize to everyone, and hope that I can ignore this defect at work."

"...Okay, that's all I want. You can also speak freely, you can say anything, if you don't say it now, you can talk about it later, I can't guarantee that it will work."

As a dragon crossing the river, you can't be weak.Wan Xiaohu must set himself up, otherwise his future work will be very disadvantageous.After all, he is too young, and he is a mainland director. Although his grades are very good, his qualifications are not convincing.Therefore, it will be the head start.Let's talk about the ugly first.

But it was obvious that Wan Xiaohu was overthinking. Although he was a young man, his identity was clearly stated on the stage, and he was the sole investor of "Infernal Affairs".

Maybe these Hong Kong staff will look down on the directors from the mainland, but they can still tell who is the parent.
