When, when, when, when. On the screen, a fat panda outlined in pencil and a small raccoon similarly outlined in pencil are holding chopsticks and fighting for a bun in the bowl. Although it is a static sketch of using chopsticks to intercept and buttoning bowls and buns, it is full of kung fu movie flavor. There is no background, no coloring, and all the characters and props are simple compositions with only a few strokes, but they look very tense. This is not a cartoon, but a storyboard clip of "Kung Fu Panda" that was first released by Mtime online. The production cycle of an animated film is long and boring, and a key part of it is to conceive the storyboard. With the storyboard, the animator can color, add background, flesh out the shape, and add color based on the storyboard. Sketches are processed into finished products. Make sound effects, add subtitles, and complete an animated movie. Wan Xiaohu is very good at drawing pencil sketches. While recalling the details of "Kung Fu Panda", he turned these plots into storyboard sketches one by one. In order to attract the attention of movie fans, a representative storyboard was selected and posted on the Internet. So there was this video. ¡°Cool, the boss is so talented, so good at painting.¡± [dafasdff] left a message of praise. ¡°It¡¯s good-looking and fun. Sure enough, Abao knows kung fu!¡± [cgx9791] said. "Is this the model for "Kung Fu Panda"? I'm looking forward to it!" [hansentian] posted a lot of little star emoticons. "Oh, the boss is good at everything, but he is a bit unprofessional. He makes some cartoons. I am really speechless. I have finished watching "Qin Shi Mingyue". The story and background are good, but the three-dimensional effect of the thing is not good and it looks very dull. I don't know "Kung Fu Panda" "How about it? Don't give it a try. In short, I'm not very interested." [halilia] said. "Can cartoons be compared with animated movies? The total investment of "Qin Shi Mingyue" is only one or two billion yuan, and there are still dozens of episodes to be shot. Didn't "Kung Fu Panda" say that it invested more than 100 million U.S. dollars, just for one Just over a hundred minutes! "[Xuanyuan Villain] still knows a lot. "When will the boss make a live-action kung fu movie? There haven't been any good kung fu movies in the past few years. Zhang Yimou will just mess around with things like "Hero" and "House of Flying Daggers". They are all trashing the martial arts culture." [Heart The upper seven eyes] said. [super¤¡æŠ] said: "I really look forward to the boss going to Hollywood to make a super blockbuster." [Mo Yanyu] said calmly: "Don't worry, it's for sure that the boss will go to Hollywood. He won't make a movie with an investment of more than 200 million US dollars. I¡¯m embarrassed to say that I¡¯m a big commercial director.¡± [Big Dumbhead] complained: ¡°My boss is only 25 years old, much younger than me. I¡¯m really afraid that he will get tired of it one day and stop making movies.¡± Shi Jin] is also worried: "I hope Brother Hu will succeed in his career and don't abandon us movie fans!" In the past, everyone simply thought that Wan Xiaohu was a director. With the development of the Internet, the media continued to disclose it. There is more and more information that can be mined. Wan Xiaohu's identity as Dandelion boss is already known to everyone. Unlike the new scenes of Zhang Yimou and Zhang Weiping, Dandelion is a much larger company, a mainland entertainment giant. Nowadays, many movie fans are afraid that one day Wan Xiaohu will be too tired to be a director and simply concentrate on being a boss. Of course, everyone is just complaining, but they are not really worried. Because Wan Xiaohu's film project is one after another, and the average director may only make one every two to three years. He shoots two or three movies a year. Since the release of this video, "Kung Fu Panda" has basically not released any news to the outside world. In Hollywood, the production cycle of an animated film is usually four to five years, of which the storyboard alone takes about two years, due to Wan Xiaohu¡¯s cheating methods. Accelerating storyboard creation still requires more than two years of production cycle. Whatever news is released now, two years will be enough for people to completely forget it. To make it with peace of mind, after the production is completed, it will not be late. In fact, "Kung Fu Panda" should be regarded as the second Hollywood film directed by Wan Xiaohu. The film was approved by the Abao Animation North American Research Center in the United States. Abao Animation is also responsible for the production, and most of the painting content was contracted to DreamWorks, a famous Hollywood animation company. There is no way, the technology of Abao Animation Studio is still too limited, and it can only learn from others. If you want to take the lead independently, it will take a long time to grow. ¡ It is difficult for Wan Xiaohu to devote himself to such a boring job as directing an animated film, so taking the time to prepare "Source Code" has become a relaxing thing. The original "Source Code" was directed by Duncan Jones, with an investment of only US$32 million.It is a low-budget science fiction film, in which starring Jake Gyllenhaal's salary accounted for US$10 million, and ultimately achieved a global box office of US$147 million. The box office is not high, but the movie's reputation is very outstanding. It is a classic among science fiction movies, not inferior to "The Butterfly Effect". And "Source Code" is the companion piece of "Butterfly Effect". "Butterfly Effect" was filmed by Wan Xiaohu, so "Source Code" naturally cannot be let go. Wan Xiaohu also likes the title of science fiction film master. "Call Andrew Brown and Liu Xiaoyang and tell them that the "Source Code" project has been arranged and it is still a Sino-US co-production" Sitting on the boss's chair in the office of Abao Animation North American Research Center, Wan Xiaohu tilted his head. He lifted his legs and said to his film and television assistant. His personal team has been assembled. Including a group of eight bodyguards, six men and two women, all retired special forces selected through Su Ya's uncle. With a two-shift system, three men and one woman follow Wan Xiaohu every time. Their family members were all arranged to work in a company owned by Tiger Ruiya to ensure the loyalty of the bodyguards. It includes a group of film and television assistants, four people, two female students who graduated from Nortel, and two American girls who graduated from the University of Southern California. Assist Wan Xiaohu in handling various matters in film and television, such as contacting the crew, helping with script processing, making daily shooting arrangements, and collecting various film and television materials according to Wan Xiaohu's requirements. For example, Wan Xiaohu has always wanted the copyright of "Twilight", but it has not been published before, so Wan Xiaohu cannot keep an eye on it. This kind of work is the job of a film and television assistant. Of course, Wan Xiaohu couldn't tell them explicitly, but instead asked them to look for books about vampire love. I am very happy that Phoenix Publishing finally published the first "Twilight Saga: Twilight" at the beginning of the year. The film and television assistants immediately confirmed that this was the vampire romance novel that Wan Xiaohu was looking for. Then Wan Xiaohu pretended to read it and immediately asked Sasha Entertainment to purchase the film adaptation rights and all the rights to the sequel. The private team also includes a group of administrative assistants, two in total, both of whom are senior people. They are responsible for handling business and publicity matters involving Wan Xiaohu, such as various company meetings, various corporate exchange meetings, as well as which programs to appear on and which programs to accept. Interviews with domestic media also include maintaining Wan Xiaohu¡¯s official website and the newly launched Time Blog. It also includes a group of life assistants, including car drivers, airplane pilots, yacht pilots, villa housekeepers, nannies, etc. Among them, there is a chief life assistant who is responsible for leading these life assistants. With a private team established and Wan Xiaohu talking, preparations for "Source Code" started running at high speed. There is no doubt that the male lead fell on Chen Kun. Starting from "The Butterfly Effect", Wan Xiaohu's several Chinese-language films that hit Hollywood all featured Chen Kun as the leading actor. He was also the only actor he promoted who had a certain influence in Hollywood and was an artist under his own banner. The pay is not high either. As for the heroine and the second female lead, they have not yet been determined. "Tiger, who do you want?" Li Xia is now doing well in the agent world. When he learned that Wan Xiaohu wanted to choose an actress, he called directly. "I haven't decided yet. Tell your actresses that I will go to Magic City in early April to choose the location for filming, and I will arrange an audition so that they can get ready." "Okay." Make the "Kung Fu Panda" on hand After the schedule was settled, Wan Xiaohu immediately left for the Magic City. He had decided to shoot outdoor scenes in the Magic City. As the economic center of China, the Magic City was developing too fast. The whole city had a very sci-fi feel, which was very suitable for shooting science fiction. Blockbusters. This time, the casting for "Source Code" was conducted in secret, and Wan Xiaohu flew on a private plane. Not many people knew that he was coming to Shanghai. "Hey, Tiger, I have already arranged the audition. It will be in the conference room of your hotel tomorrow afternoon." Li Xia rushed to Shanghai in advance to arrange the audition, and said while drinking with Wan Xiaohu. "Okay, I understand, come on, touch one." "Drink." "By the way, have you and Li Yumin decided on a date yet?" "Not yet. It was originally planned to be done on November this year, but now I'm quite busy with work, so I can't live without Xiaomin's company, so I can only wait and see." "It's better to get married later and have fun for a while, there's no burden," Wan Xiaohu said, taking a sip of beer. Li Xia nodded: "Even if you get married and continue to play, how much burden can you have? Yu Dong, Wang Zhongjun, Wang Zhonglei, who doesn't play?" "Damn, your kid's thoughts are getting more and more corrupt now. The world is declining, and people's hearts are Not ancient." Wan Xiaohu cursed with a smile. "The eldest brother doesn't talk about the second brother,"We are all men, so I learned how to play from Tiger. " "Don't rely on me. When did I teach you? " "Jun Ji-hyun, Jessica Alba, Li Bingbing, I don't even want to talk about it. " Wan Xiaohu said with a face: "This is a mutual love" "Hey, Tiger, there are several agents tonight asking me for the address of the hotel where you are staying. Let's drink less and don't hinder your evening. of interest. " "I'm telling you, you kid, don't do the same thing, I won't accept it! " "Stop it. "
