    In the previous trajectory, "Infernal Affairs" was adapted into the Hollywood version of "The Departed", which cost $90 million and won a box office of $289.85 million. With the help of Oscar compensation for Martin Scorsese, it won the box office in one fell swoop.  Best film, best director, best adapted screenplay and other awards.  On IMDb, it also received 8.5 points of praise. It can be said that it has earned both box office and word-of-mouth.  As a small entertainment company that has only produced "Saw", "Saw 2", "Butterfly Effect 2" and "Wanted" so far, Sasha Entertainment is actually not short of box office. Chainsaw 1 and 2 are both  With a box office of over 100 million US dollars, Butterfly 2 was not released, but the DVD sales were very good, and "Wanted" was a box office hit.  But in terms of awards, it is a little weak.  For an entertainment company to grow, it is not enough to make money at the box office. It must also produce enough award-winning movies to increase its high-quality film library resources and increase long-term profits.  "The Departed" is a movie that aims to win awards.  If it is directed by someone else, it may not win an award, but if it is directed by Martin Scorsese, it will definitely be possible. The Oscars have deceived this old man for many years, and it is time to compensate him.  "Director Scorsese, I will not sell any copyright of "Infernal Affairs". As I said just now, if you are willing to direct, I can invest in your filming. Although Sasha Entertainment is a small company, it has also successfully distributed  After a few movies, I have enough strength." Wan Xiaohu shook his coffee and said with a smile.  "In fact, I am very interested in directing the American version of "Infernal Affairs". Since you are unwilling to sell the copyright, please allow me to go back and discuss with my team. I hope to cooperate with Sasha Entertainment." "I also hope.  Able to cooperate.¡±¡­ Martin Scorsese didn¡¯t discuss it for long after he returned.  So I chose to cooperate, and it was confirmed that Sasha Entertainment would invest in filming the American version of Infernal Affairs, named "The-Departed", and the Chinese title "Infernal Affairs".  Wan Xiaohu knew the movie would be successful.  Therefore, the investment budget is very sufficient, with a total of US$90 million.  This is also the highest budget movie directed by Martin Scorsese.  Hollywood is naturally paying close attention to this news, after all, Scorsese¡¯s fame is here.  Domestic news is relatively sloppy, and even Mtime, a website owned by Wan Xiaohu, only made routine reports.  "It is reported that "The Departed" directed by Martin Scorsese and invested by Sasha Entertainment has made a high-profile debut in Hollywood. The film is adapted from "The Departed" directed by Wan Xiaohu This is not the first time that Wan Xiaohu's film has been  "My Sassy Girl" was also adapted into an American version. "The American version of "My Sassy Girl" was a disastrous failure. It was a hit in both mainland China and South Korea, and even more so in North America.  This time, "The Departed" is generally not optimistic in China, and there are only a few reporters.  Wan Xiaohu has watched the original version of "The Departed".  It¡¯s foul language, bloody, violent, and even vaguely satirical about socialism. Even if Wan Xiaohu had already told Martin Scorsese not to get involved in Chinese politics, if he wanted to release it in the mainland, it would probably still be empty words. This foul language  You can't pass the test.  Therefore it is not worth publicizing.  Fans of Wan Xiaohu, on the other hand, have had more intense discussions about this film adaptation. In the words of [Little P Kid] who claims to be a die-hard fan of Wan Xiaohu: "The boss's movie has been adapted by Hollywood. This is a symbol of Niubi.  How many directors can have their films adapted by Hollywood?" While some fans were having heated discussions about "The Departed", other fans changed their goals.  "Back then, the boss himself told the media that the copyright of "Infernal Affairs" was not for sale. I thought he wanted to direct it himself. Why is it suddenly sold now?" [Xiaoren Xiaosan] raised his own question.  About this.  [Qi Gaoju] gave an explanation: "Pay attention to the news. The investor is Sasha Entertainment. Does Sasha Entertainment know? If you don't know, please ask the netizens downstairs to explain it to you." "Buy a ticket for life" said: "In view of the fact that  Let me explain the invitation upstairs. Sasha Entertainment is an American film company. It is said that it has been acquired by the boss. Of course, it has not been confirmed. There are no news reports about this.  10. Several movies directed by the boss are all produced by Sasha Entertainment. It is easy to find problems. ""The above is too vague. Let me do some science." [Dragon Prison Er Shuai] is not very satisfied with the above.  , added, "The official website of Sasha Entertainment states that the company was founded in 2000, and its business scope includes TV and movie production, distribution and sales of DVD and other audio-visual products, as well as printing of publicity, packaging design posters, etc." "In 2003, the company was acquired by a company  The acquisition of an offshore company named The-Tiger-and-Elegant-International-Investment-Co, about thisThere is no introduction to this company, but there is a word "Tiger" in it. Everyone should know that this is the boss's domineering and coquettish English name.  " "Sasha Entertainment's first movie "Saw" was directed by the boss. The following year, "Saw 2" and "Wanted" were produced by the boss. In March this year, "The Butterfly Effect 2" was produced, and  The investment in "The Departed" that has just been announced is all related to the boss.  " " Let me introduce you a little more. Sasha Entertainment has developed rapidly this year. It has already started producing "Saw 3", "Source Code" directed by Boss, "The Departed" directed by Scorsese and "The Departed" directed by Ron Howard.  "The Da Vinci Code", it can be said that Sasha Entertainment has become stronger and stronger, and the boss's career is booming.  " [Kiss Can't Touch] expressed his admiration: "There's a real talent upstairs. It's hard to find information in English. Besides, the boss is the boss. Dandelion is so famous in China, but I didn't expect that Sasha Entertainment is so famous in Hollywood.  " [txd123] shouted: "I look forward to the boss unifying Hollywood and revitalizing Chinese-language films.  " [tong20081001] even shouted: "If the sky does not give birth to Brother Tiger, eternity will be like a long night!  " Movie fans are all simple. If you like someone, they will hope that person becomes more and more outstanding. He is leading in all aspects. As the director with the largest number of movie fans in China, Wan Xiaohu can be said to have satisfied all the pride and fantasies of movie fans.  . Young and rich, single and unmarried, internationally famous and successful. If a director like this is not attractive, then no director can be attractive. The only regret is that Wan Xiaohu is not a director who likes to show off and rarely participates.  During the movie promotion, I occasionally make appearances in public places such as opening ceremonies, premieres, and celebration parties. The rest is to appear on some talk shows, award shows, or give lectures at Nortel. I rarely interact with movie fans so far.  The number of signatures did not exceed 2,000. This also led to the fact that one of his signatures could even fetch 8,000 yuan on the black market, especially in Wan Xiaohu's first fan organization "Three Hundred Tigers".  There was no signature. In order to prove that he was a die-hard, he was frantically seeking to buy autographs. He left messages on Wan Xiaohu¡¯s Time Network blog, asking for autographs. The assistant told Wan Xiaohu about the fans¡¯ wishes, and Wan Xiaohu just shook his head.  In the past, he longed to be famous and eager to be surrounded by fans, but now he is somewhat escaping from this life in front of the flashlights. He would rather be a carefree behind-the-scenes worker, play around with celebrity girls, and live an ordinary life unknown to others.  Life. Therefore, he signs less and less, attends less important film festivals, and doesn¡¯t go to low-end talk shows. When he has free time, he just hangs out in his own small space, talking about love and writing scripts.  . Enjoy the tranquility after the flashy.  Reflecting the entire park scenery, the spherical bubble building made of stainless steel stands in front of the building.  What do you want to do today?  " "I think we should stay here a little longer, it feels like we're meant to be, right?  "    "Card!  " Wan Xiaohu leaned on the back of the chair under the awning, picked up the speaker, and shouted loudly: "This one has passed, the next one Well, I think we are done.  " "Aha, it's finished!  " "It's over so soon.  " "Where are you going to play in the afternoon?  " "I'm going to go shopping and buy some American souvenirs.  " The surrounding employees left their posts one after another to stretch their muscles. Wan Xiaohu crossed his legs and looked at everyone with a smile. He felt something different every time he finished the project. But this time, the feeling was even more different.  , for the final effect of the large spherical bubble, the crew of "Source Code" specially flew to Chicago's Millennium Park for filming. As a Chinese science fiction film, it is best not to involve any plot that discredits the Chinese government in order to pass the review of radio and television.  Therefore, the background was blurred by Wan Xiaohu. At the end of the movie, the scene where the hero and heroine arrived in a new parallel world and stood in front of the spherical bubble was absolutely classic. Wan Xiaohu then moved on to Chicago to shoot the location.  Is it a co-production with the United States? Of course it will be shot in two places. "Everyone, put your things away. We will return to China in two days. In other words, you have two days left to have fun."  "Wan Xiaohu took the trumpet and said loudly. Naturally, everyone cheered: "The director is wise.  ¡± To showThe staff took a vacation, but Wan Xiaohu himself did not. Currently, all copies of "Source Code" have been shipped to the United States and placed in Santa Monica.  Wan Xiaohu will direct and edit "Kung Fu Panda" here, and then send it to the Dragon Warrior Digital Matte Company to complete the post-production special effects production.  "Liu Yang, I'm going back to Santa Monica today. Please help the crew take it back." "Okay." "What about that? Lao Wu has already gone to travel around the world and find his own direction in life. As for you, think about it too.  , after all, you have made so many movies with me, you should make some plans for your own film career. When you finalize the script, come to me." Wan Xiaohu patted Liu Yang on the shoulder.  Liu Yang took off the peaked cap on his head, scratched his hair, and said: "When you said that, I suddenly became nervous. I am a person who lacks independent opinions. I have a lot of fun making movies with others. I really want to be on my own."  Done, I feel like I don¡¯t have a clue.¡± ¡°It¡¯s okay to have some courage. Others don¡¯t have a chance to be a director, but you hold back when you have a chance.¡± ¡°Isn¡¯t this the first time, Brother Hu, you know, the first  "It's hard to avoid being nervous." "Hehe!"
