Just after the joy of moving to a new house, another big event came for Wan Xiaohu. After four months of preparation for "Legend of Hot Blood", all preparations and publicity work have been completed. On November 1st, it will be officially launched in China. Chen Tianqiao has called to invite Wan Xiaohu and Su Ya to Shanda Network to witness the launch of the game. However, Wan Xiaohu did not have time to go to Shanghai. On the same day, Huayi Brothers will hold a premiere of "The Butterfly Effect" in Beijing. As a director, Wan Xiaohu has no reason to be absent. "Mr. Chen, when the game is popular, I will go to you for a drink. I really don't have time now and can't leave." "Okay, you are all busy as directors, I know." After hanging up Chen Tianqiao, Wan Xiaohu I walked to the office area of ??Novel Network and found Hidden Sword Jiangnan and Baojian Feng. "When you have free time, help me build another website, a website about movie information, called Time Network. Use the servers that were replaced before to build this Time Network first. It doesn't need to be too professional, just keep it simple. That¡¯s it. I have a plan here, illustrating the functions of Time Network. You guys can start with it.¡± Bao Jianfeng took the plan and said, ¡°Okay, I¡¯ll arrange for people to build the website.¡± About Time Network. , is a website that Wan Xiaohu has wanted to do for a long time. Around 2004, Mtime.com appeared. It was originally called impdb and was a small website specializing in collecting movie posters. Later it was renamed allmov and started to build a movie database. In September 2004, allmov received capital injection from Beijing Dongyi Time Network Technology Co., Ltd. and officially changed its name to Mtime. Before Wan Xiaohu was reborn, Time.com was China's largest movie portal, specializing in providing movie content and services. It had a movie database, movie information, cinema screening information, trailers, videos, movie posters, stills, celebrity photos and popular reviews, etc. Rich information. However, the Time.com that Wan Xiaohu wants to create this time is not just a copy of the Time.com in his memory, but also includes the features of well-known movie websites such as Douban, Yien.com, Mojo, IMDb, and Rotten Tomatoes. Time.com is famous for its movie library, Douban is famous for film reviews, Yien.com is famous for research and box office data, Mojo is a website that specializes in querying global movie box office information, IMDb is a professional movie rating website, and Rotten Tomatoes is famous for Known for its unique freshness. Wan Xiaohu wants to build Time.com, which is to combine these features and make it the most authoritative website for the film industry and even the entertainment industry in China and even the world. This was also a costly initiative. Whether it was Mtime.com or Douban Community, or even Mojo and IMDb in the United States, they did not have much profitability and could only rely on appropriations or financing from the parent company. But it doesn¡¯t matter if you burn money. What Wan Xiaohu values ??most is the influence of the website. ?????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? ¡°Furthermore, Wan Xiaohu also has an idea to build a museum for Chinese films. Let everyone, whether they are born in the 80s, 90s, or even those born in the 1980s, learn about all Chinese movies and the development process of Chinese movies through this online museum. And, those forefathers have made unremitting efforts for Chinese films. On the previous track, Wan Xiaohu sadly discovered that Chinese movie fans know foreign directors very well. They understand Hitchcock and Akira Kurosawa as well as their own relatives. But almost no one cares about China¡¯s third and fourth generation directors. How can a China that only knows the history of foreign films use its own culture to export to foreign countries? "Well, this idea is a bit too lofty. In fact, I just plan to control the propaganda and public opinion in my hands." Back in his office, Wan Xiaohu scratched the Sanqi Development Type. Following film companies and novel companies, portal websites have also begun planning. The ideal movie kingdom is growing rapidly. ? ? Stretching and breathing in the paint smell that had not completely dissipated in the office, Wan Xiaohu felt quite satisfied with the rebirth of the past six months. ¡ On November 1, 2000, the mainland premiere of ¡°The Butterfly Effect¡± was held at UME Huaxing International Cinema in Beijing. Stars from Huayi Brothers came to support the premiere. The entire premiere was star-studded. Countless reporters came to watch the movie. The first batch of 88 audience tickets sold to the outside world were also snatched up early. The first domestic science fiction film since the new millennium, it won three special awards at the Golden Rooster Awards, and was well received at Hong Kong screenings and film festivals. These are all gimmicks that are enough to attract audiences. And after the 90-minute viewing, the film lived up to expectations and received a wave of applause that lasted for more than a minute. ????????????????????????????????????????????????????Wan Xiaohu stood up from the front row, took the microphone handed by the staff, patted it gently, walked up to the big screen, and faced the dark audience. Wait for the applause to stop. Then he picked up the microphone and said twice: "Since filming was completed in October, and then screened in Hong Kong, the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival, "The Butterfly Effect" finally has its premiere. Tomorrow, it will meet the national audience. "In my heart, it would be a lie to say that I am not worried, but your applause gives me great confidence." "Compared with many directors, I am lucky, and my first film was successfully released. , has achieved good box office success. With the strong support of Huayi Brothers, this movie has come to this day, and tomorrow will usher in a big test that will determine the fate of the movie. " "I hope, and I also implore everyone, to After the premiere, if you think this movie is good, please spread the word for us. On behalf of all the members of the crew, I would like to thank you all." Without going into too much detail, Wan Xiaohu ended his speech. The applause at the end of the movie says it all, why bother saying more? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? With applause, the premiere ended. After leaving the theater, Wan Xiaohu and the creative staff were immediately surrounded by reporters, and they were bombarded with countless questions. "Director Wan, at noon today, the 37th Taiwan Golden Horse Film Awards announced the nomination list. "The Butterfly Effect" was nominated for Best Original Screenplay. What do you have to say about this?" Wan Xiaohu nodded: "As a director "The Butterfly Effect" is a standard commercial film that has been nominated for the Golden Horse Awards. It is a happy event. I am very happy." "So, will you participate in this Golden Horse Awards?" "It depends on the situation, I don't know. Do you have time? " "After watching "The Butterfly Effect", I found that the whole story is very messy, and the topic of science fiction seems too mysterious. As a director, have you ever thought that the audience may not buy it? " "It is a matter of opinion. Zhiba, science fiction movies are not mainstream in our market now, but good movies are worth watching. I also believe that everyone will like this story. It would be better if there can be more discussion and research. " "For Chen. What do you think of Kun and Zhou Xun's acting skills? " Wan Xiaohu looked at Zhou Xun and Chen Kun who were surrounded by reporters not far away, and said with a smile: "They are very good actors, they can express everything I want to express. "It's very exciting." "During the promotion, many big-name stars participated in the movie, but after watching it, I found out that they were all guest appearances. Is this deceptive promotion?" "How can you say that a guest appearance is not a performance? ? Do they have to appear from beginning to end to participate? Although they may not appear for a long time, their roles are very important, right? Whether it is the father played by Chen Daoming or the doctor played by Hu Jun, "They all played a vital role, isn't that enough?" "Director Wan, can you give me a box office forecast?" Wan Xiaohu thought for a while and held out three fingers. "Thirty million?" Wan Xiaohu nodded. After finally dealing with the reporters, Wan Xiaohu squeezed into the car and wiped the sweat from his forehead. Being famous is indeed very prosperous, but sometimes life is difficult. Being asked about something like this by reporters is very satisfying once in a while, but it is annoying if you keep chasing after you. By the time Chen Kun and Zhou Xun also squeezed into the car, the premiere was completely over. The crew had a meal together and then dispersed. The next day, Wan Xiaohu took Chen Kun and Zhou Xun non-stop to the studio of Beijing TV Station to participate in the recording of a program called "Celebrity Meeting" to promote "The Butterfly Effect". This program is not very popular, but it is not like other entertainment programs. The celebrities play games and eat, and it is mainly conversational. Wan Xiaohu prides himself on being a director, so he will not participate in entertainment programs at a low price, play games with the host, or make a fool of himself. This is the reason why I chose "Celebrity Meeting". Zhou Xun and Chen Kun participated in other entertainment programs. "'Celebrity Meeting', today we are meeting with the director of the first domestic science fiction film 'Butterfly Effect', Wan Xiaohu, as well as the actor Chen Kun and the heroine Zhou Xun, let's welcome them." And other hosts. After the lines were said, a staff member immediately appeared out of reach of the camera holding a sign with "Clap" written on it. There were more than a hundred spectators in the venue who were participating in the recording of the program, and they immediately shouted and clapped their hands in welcome. The atmosphere was very warm. Wan Xiaohu, Zhou Xun, and Chen Kun, who had already been prepared backstage, walked onto the stage with brisk steps. After the host invited the three people to sit on the sofa??, came the opening remarks: "I am very glad that you are coming to "Celebrity Meet and Greet" as a guest. First of all, please say hello to the audience present and in front of the TV." Wan Xiaohu came first, smiling, and those in the audience The camera immediately adjusted to a close-up angle: "Hello everyone, I am Wan Xiaohu, the director of "The Butterfly Effect"." "Hello everyone, I am Zhou Xun. I play the heroine Yu Na in "The Butterfly Effect"." Zhou Xun waved his hand. Then Chen Kun also said hello: "I am Chen Kun. I play the leading actor Su Ye in "The Butterfly Effect". I am very happy to meet you." After saying hello, the host looked at Wan Xiaohu and asked: "Director, as a director "The Butterfly Effect" is a science fiction movie. What is it mainly about? "Wan Xiaohu replied: "This is an explanation of the 'Butterfly Effect' theory, when a person can go back to the past and change the unsatisfactory things he has experienced. It affects everything in reality. Then, in this change and being changed, we find out what life is and what love is"
