"Hurry up, I see Xiao Song has returned to China, please contact me quickly." Director Chen from the space agency said anxiously to his assistant.
Over the years, their space agency has been dedicated to research.
It can be considered a big breakthrough.
In 2003, Shenzhou 5 was the first manned space flight to successfully achieve a historic moment.
In 2005, Shenzhou-6 was the first to achieve a multi-person, multi-day mission.
Chang'e-1 in 2007 was the first satellite to orbit the moon, completing the first step in the lunar exploration project.
In 2008, Shenzhou 7 realized the spacewalk of Chinese astronauts.
Chang'e-2 in 2010, Tiangong-1 in 2011, the first space laboratory.
In 2013, Yutu successfully landed on the moon.
In 2019, Yutu-2 was the world’s first probe to land on the far side of the moon.
and Tianwen-1, the first autonomous Mars exploration mission in 20 years.
Looking at the success over the years on this wall, Director Chen was very emotional.
From nothing to something, from zero to one, from development to transcendence.
Over the years, their aerospace engineering has never stopped.
Although in recent years, the space agency has also allowed astronauts to conduct live lectures in space.
But everyone knows very little about aerospace knowledge and so-called aerospace interest.
At first he also wanted to make a promotional film about aerospace.
However, I have never found a suitable subject matter or shooting candidate.
Until the Chinese New Year this year, he was shocked by the release of "2012".
For this reason, he approached the Tang Bureau of the Geological Bureau and asked him about the idea of this movie.
When Director Chen learned that the film was jointly produced by Guoteng Media and the Geological Bureau.
But this "2012" was all handled by Song Hao alone.
It can be said that the content is 100%.
Seeing such technological special effects, the director was moved.
Originally, he wanted to have a chat with Song Hao after "2012" was released.
Unexpectedly, the official land administration department invited Song Hao to shoot military themes.
He was even more excited when he saw "Bright Sword" being played on TV.
This TV series is also so good.
Director Chen realized that if he did not contact Song Hao quickly, he would probably be intercepted by other departments again.
So after learning that Song Hao and his team had participated in the Venice Film Festival, he asked his assistant to find them immediately.
When Assistant Meng came to Song Hao's company and expressed Director Chen's thoughts, Song Hao immediately followed him to the space agency.
Entering the office of the director of the space agency, Director Chen immediately said cheerfully: "Comrade Xiao Song, I have finally met you."
Song Hao also said respectfully: "Director Chen, I'm sorry, I'm late."
"No, no, hurry, sit down." Director Chen invited Song Hao to take a seat.
Then Assistant Meng started making tea for them.
Director Chen looked at Song Hao and praised: "Comrade Xiao Song, you are so awesome. I went to the Venice Film Festival and won an award. I heard that no one in our country has won an award at this film festival for 15 years." Right?"
"I won a Silver Lion Award." Song Hao explained.
"Not bad, not bad." Director Chen also praised: "Our Chinese film and television market now lacks fresh blood like you. Some old directors have always been stubborn and stubborn, which has led to the delay in progress in those film and television works. If you hadn't made them That movie "Bright Sword", to be honest, I haven't watched an anti-war drama in many years."
"Today's anti-war dramas are too sophisticated. How do those directors and screenwriters know what the previous wars were like?"
Director Chen not only praised "Bright Sword", but also said about "2012": "By the way, your "2012" is also very good. I took my daughter to see it during the Chinese New Year."
"Thank you, Director Chen, for your compliment." Song Hao laughed.
He immediately asked: "On the way here, I heard Assistant Meng say that Director Chen wants me to jointly produce a movie with the space agency, right?"
"Yes." Director Chen saw Song Hao talking about a formal topic, and he said bluntly: "I have been thinking about coming to you for a long time. Our space agency has made many breakthroughs in recent years. You should also know this. "
Song Hao nodded: "It seems that a rocket was launched recently?"
"That's right, but we ordinary people don't have much interest in aerospace, let alone knowledge. That's why I thought of coming to you to discuss cooperating on a movie and some series about aerospace. It doesn’t need to cover all aerospace content, it just needs to stimulate everyone’s interest in aerospace.”
Director Chen then pointed to the words on the wall: "Look at these are the breakthroughs we have made over the years."
"Shenzhou 5, 6, Chang'e, Tiangong 1, etc."
Director Chen felt very proud while reciting these names.
“In 1970, when the first artificial satellite Dongfanghong-1 was launched into space, I was still a 10-year-old child, watching the black and white TV, and all I knew at that time was that everyone’s eyes were wet with tears. "
"Until now, the stars and the sea are boundless. Every small thing inherits a great cause. I think we can be called a space power in a few years."
Hearing this, Song Hao knew that Director Chen was just being modest.
In fact, within a few years, China will now be a powerful aerospace power.
Looking at the whole world, who else can I see?
Song Hao understands how Director Chen has been feeling over the years.
It just so happened that he had such a plan in mind.
So he told Director Chen: "Director Chen will tell you the truth. In fact, after filming "2012", I have thought about making a film with a more sci-fi theme, related to aerospace."
"Really?" Director Chen was very happy.
He immediately asked: "What kind of story is it?"
"I haven't written the specific script yet, it may take half a month." Song Hao explained.
Director Chen said quickly: "It doesn't matter, just show it to me after you finish writing it, and we will discuss it together then."
"good."
Director Chen had almost finished meeting and chatting, and others took Song Hao to visit the space agency.
By the way, I also showed him the various satellites and space stations currently operating in the sky.
Seeing what he saw in front of him, Song Hao couldn't help but feel proud.
The development of the motherland has been getting better and better in recent years. As a Chinese people, he is naturally very happy.
He subsequently left the space agency.
Soon, he received the reward from the system task.
[Won any award at the Venice International Film Festival, and will be rewarded with 1,000 film redemption cards, and master-level war scene construction capabilities. 】
For a moment, the master-level war picture construction ability entered Song Hao's mind.
Those famous scenes, as well as the structural design of the famous director, were immediately clear to the mind.
This war scene structure is very suitable for shooting big scenes in the future.
Maybe it can be used in movies in the future.
But Song Hao hasn't thought much about it yet. Now he wants to exchange the two movies.
One is "The Wandering Earth".
One is an animated movie.
The fourth season of "That Year of the Rabbit" has been completed.
Song Hao asked the animation production department to suspend the production of "That Rabbit" and start preparing for a new animated film.
As for which animated movie to choose, he was also troubled.
There are also many domestic animated films of good quality.
For example, "Big Fish and Begonia" has a box office of 566 million. It can be said that the creation of this movie was bumpy at the beginning. During the 1 hour and 40 minutes of this movie, there were hundreds of thousands of manuscripts alone, enough to fill a room.
With just one story behind it, the creator of "Big Fish and Begonia" wrote a biography of tens of thousands of words.
This attitude also allowed the movie to break the record of domestic animation after its release.
Of course, "White Snake 2: The Rise of the Green Snake" is also good. The film's box office reached 580 million, more than 1,000 days and nights, more than 200 characters, and 2,343 shots, creating the glory of Chinese comics.
There is also "Journey to the West: The Return of the Great Sage", which has a box office of 956 million and went through eight years of preparation and three years of production.
Although the initial publicity was obviously insufficient, it caused an uproar in China with its excellent 3D technology, sophisticated art style and excellent soundtrack.
On the fourth day of release, 14% of the scheduled films beat 33% of the box office results.
Of course, if we want to have the highest box office, it has to be "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World". The box office of this film is as high as 5.07 billion. The number of people actually involved in the production behind this animation exceeds 1,600.
Initially, there were more than 5,000 shots in the entire film, three times the number of ordinary animated films. After repeated selections, more than 2,000 shots were left.
The 1,318 special effects shots in the finished film account for 80% of the total.
More than 20 special effects teams across the country were used to collaborate.
If it's just the special effects shots that have created so much box office, then it's definitely not just the reason.
"Nezha" is originally a legendary character in ancient myths and legends, and is deeply loved by domestic audiences.
Especially in the movie "The Legend of the Gods" that year, Nezha, played by Chen Haomin, cut off his bones to return his father and his flesh to return his mother, which can be said to be a classic.
This movie well presents the image and legend of the character "Nezha", expands the audience's knowledge and feelings, and allows more people to understand and become interested.
As for technology, the art, special effects and animation production of "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" have reached the international leading level.
The high-quality technical production, exquisite pictures and vivid animation effects indeed allow everyone to fully feel the visual enjoyment and texture experience brought by the movie.
Moreover, the various demons and human characters in this movie all have extremely charming and personalized images, with cool movements and exquisite graphics.
The setting of these character images determines the audience's yearning and desire for the movie, which is highly influential and enjoyable.
The most important point is that the whole play tells the thoughts about the value of life and human morality, as well as the emotions of love, gratitude, helping others and other themes, which resonates and inspires the audience, and even triggers heated discussions on various social topics.
The character relationships and emotional development are reasonable, vivid, and the soothing details not only attract more viewers' attention, but also increase everyone's favorable impression of "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World".
Song Hao looked at his remaining video redemption cards and found that he currently has 1,500 of them.
"The Wandering Earth" requires 700 pieces.
"Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" requires 650 pieces.
It just so happens that both movies can be redeemed.
As for "The Return of the Great Sage" and "Big Fish and Begonia", Song Hao thought that he would just leave it to Director Zhang Xianfu in the future.
He personally led the production of this film "Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes into the World".
then.
Song Hao redeemed all these two movies.
All the plots came to mind at once.
He also decided to write the scripts for these two movies after returning home.
According to the timeline, if these two movies are to be successfully produced, "The Wandering Earth" will take at least nine months.
"Nezha: The Devil Boy Comes to the World" involves many special effects, so he is not sure. The fastest production time is estimated to be more than half a year.
That is to say.
If he wants to make these two movies, he'll have to spend almost the rest of the year doing that.
But Song Hao thinks it's worth it.
After all, the Chinese market is getting better and better now.
Perhaps it is their own invisible influence that makes more directors begin to pay attention to the quality of their works.
The movies released in the past two years also all have good reputations.
In addition, Song Hao has been releasing movies non-stop in the past three years, which has really put pressure on his colleagues.
Rather than doing this, it would be better to take advantage of this time to dive and polish two masterpieces.
Give your peers time to breathe.
After returning to the company.
Song Hao also came to the animation production department to express his thoughts.
The entire department was very excited when they learned that they were about to produce a large-scale animated film.
As the team leader of animation production, Zhang Xianfu immediately patted his chest and said, "Song Hao, no problem, leave it to us."
Song Hao smiled and said: "Not only do I have to leave it to you, but you also have to help contact domestic animation production teams, at least 20 or more."
"20?!" One of the employees was very surprised: "Do you want that many?"
"Special effects shots account for 80% of all shots in this movie. You can never complete it alone, so we must outsource some special effects shots. As for some important special effects, you must do it." Song Hao warned.
Hearing this, everyone couldn't help but feel that the burden on them was getting heavier and heavier.
But as the saying goes, the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility.
Everyone here was selected by Song Hao.
I have also experienced the production of animations such as "Chang'an Thirty Thousand Miles" and "That Rabbit That Year".
Therefore, they will not be afraid. Instead, according to Gao Qiqiang's words, the bigger the wind and the waves, the more expensive the fish, so they have to sail forward.
In the next two days, Song Hao started writing the manuscript of "The Wandering Earth" in his office.
During this period, Director Ye from Mango Channel also asked from time to time if he had any plans for the next film and television series?
But Song Hao also responded tactfully, saying that he was currently working on a movie, and it was estimated that there would be no film or TV dramas for a while.
Hearing this, Director Ye was also very sorry.
He then asked if he could buy the rights to loop the show now that the premiere of "Bright Sword" has ended.
In view of Director Ye's perseverance, Song Hao finally reached a cooperation with him.
What he didn't expect was that the day after Director Ye's contract came into effect, he would immediately arrange a prime-time broadcast of "Bright Sword".
Although "Bright Sword" has been played once, many people have already seen it.
But such a good drama, you can never tire of it.
Therefore, many viewers also clicked on the Mango Channel to continue watching.
Although the ratings of Mango Channel's "Bright Sword" are not as good as those of the TV stations that first aired it.
But no matter what, it is better than other TV series at the same time.
Director Ye was naturally happy too.
I couldn't take the first bite of meat at first, but now it's great to take a bite of soup.
While Song Hao was actively preparing the script, the Film Association invited him to come over to hold a council meeting.
This actually surprised him.
Although his fame has grown over the past three years, he rarely attends film association meetings.
He felt that most of them were actors of the older generation, and it was really inappropriate for him to blend in.
Besides, President Chen Daoming forced himself to be a director of the Film Association.
It can be said that he is just a small director in name only.
This time, Chairman Chen suddenly invited him to convene a council meeting, which was a bit curious.
However, Song Hao naturally did not dare to absent himself from Chairman Chen's invitation.
He came to the host hall of the Film Association Council and met President Chen.
"President Chen." Song Hao stepped forward and said respectfully.
Chen Daoming was chatting with other people at this time. When he saw Song Hao, he walked over to him, patted him on the shoulder and said, "You're good boy. You came back with a Silver Lion Award."
Song Hao smiled: "Maybe it's luck."
"Stop pretending to be confused like me. You and I both know that "2012" is a good movie. Only you in China can make such a movie!" Chairman Chen said happily.
Then he explained: "Today is the change of leadership, so I called you over. You are not allowed to leave early later."
"How could this happen? Don't worry, President Chen. I promise to be the last to leave." Song Hao replied.
Chen Daoming then chatted with other directors.
Not long after, the council convened.
Chen Daoming also talked about the outstanding works of China Film and Television this year.
Among them, Song Hao's works have been mentioned many times.
Everyone present also applauded one after another.
Immediately afterwards, he also said: "Our vice president this year has also retired, so we have to elect a vice president from this session of directors."
Hearing this, some directors and artists were also surprised.
They also didn't expect that today's council meeting would be about running for vice president.
Especially Director Zhang, as a director who has been deeply involved in works in the industry for so many years, he naturally hopes to obtain the position of vice president of the Film Association.
Once a person has no worries about food and clothing, he wants fame even more.
Celebrity history seems to be everyone's obsession.
Director Chen Kai is naturally the same. He has been making films over the years just to make everyone remember him.
Bald Ge didn't have much thought about the vice president.
After all, he and President Chen are neighbors, so he is half the vice president.
Teacher Tang Guoqiang also nodded and said: "The duties of our Film Association have not changed for many years. We really need some fresh blood to lead our association's progress in film and television."
After Teacher Tang Guoqiang finished speaking, President Chen seemed to have agreed, and continued: "Let me talk about my suggestion first. My personal suggestion is to let Xiao Song be the vice president of our Film Association."
As soon as these words came out, others were not sure whether they were surprised or not.
But Song Hao was surprised.
He didn't expect that President Chen Daoming would directly suggest that he become the vice president of this film association.
Most of the people present were middle-aged and above.
I am now sitting here as a junior, and it is already good to be able to participate in voting for vice president.
And President Chen directly asked him to be the leader, which is just a big melon!
Compared to Song Hao, the others were no longer calm either.
Director Zhang originally thought that he relied on his qualifications and experience.
The position of vice president may very well fall to his head.
At best, Boss Ge or Director Chen Kai would have to compete with themselves.
But Boss Ge always doesn't care about things, so Chen Kai's words are nothing in Director Zhang's eyes.
Therefore, Director Zhang has always believed that if he were to choose a vice president, he would definitely be the first choice.
Unexpectedly, President Chen actually suggested Song Hao directly!
How old is he? !
Not even thirty!
Boss Ge seemed to notice Director Zhang's mood, and finally he said: "President, I think it is good for Xiao Song to be the vice president. After all, he has made so many excellent works in recent years, right? But I I'm afraid that Xiao Song will be too tired, and he will have to film movies and take on the work in the conference, and he will be too busy."
"Xiao Song, do you think so?" Boss Ge is a very smart person, and he wants to drag Song Hao into the trap.
Song Hao naturally understood, he just smiled and said: "Teacher Ge's personal analysis makes sense."
This sentence also has knowledge.
Song Hao's implication was that this was Boss Ge's personal analysis and had nothing to do with him.
Teacher Tang Guoqiang was happy: "Young people must have some challenges, otherwise it will be too comfortable, and I think Xiao Song is also the kind of responsible person. The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility."
I have to say that Teacher Tang’s words are very artistic.
Chen Daoming naturally knew what these old foxes in front of him were thinking, and he continued: "Our Film Association has not made much progress in the past few years, but look at Xiao Song, he won the Silver Lion Award at the Venice International Film Festival , breaking the 15-year award drought."
"I think our Film Association has to break the rules. Instead of having to have older people to hold positions, we have to let younger people express their ideas. What do you think?"
Director Chen Kai knew that it was impossible for him to get the position of vice president, so it didn't matter who took the position, so he said casually: "I think it's okay, let Director Xiao Song take us older generations to take the photo." If there is a chance for a movie, let’s work together and let’s take advantage of it.”
After hearing this, Song Hao said quickly: "Teacher Chen has always been a role model for me to learn from. If there is a chance, I also hope to cooperate with you."
"In that case, let's just vote, okay." Chen Daoming suggested.
This time the vote means almost nothing.
After all, the president has already spoken.
So the next process is also very simple.
Song Hao became the vice president of the Film Association.
The youngest ever.
When the news was posted online, it immediately sparked heated discussions.
Some netizens praised it, while others questioned it.
"Director Song is the vice president at such a young age. Can't Director Zhang be the vice president?"
"It makes me laugh. When did the vice president have to be older? Look at Director Song's achievements in the past three years. Who wouldn't scorn those directors and artists?"
While everyone was arguing, Song Hao finished writing the script for "The Wandering Earth".
A full ten days!
Looking at this manuscript, he breathed a sigh of relief, and then sighed: "The next step is the Wandering Earth Project!"
Asking for a monthly ticket!
Asking for a monthly ticket!
