    I spent a day at the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television. The meeting discussed all aspects of the film industry, high-level layout at the national level, the establishment of digital cinemas in rural areas, films to improve the country's image, film and television companies to fully embrace the financial industry, and film scheduling systems.  and the improvement of the censorship system, etc.  Having meetings every year and every quarter has become a habit.  Wan Xiaohu always comes to meetings when he is free, and ignores them when he is not.  The reason why I came here this time was naturally because I had free time, because after the meeting it was October 1st.  2009 is the 60th anniversary of the founding of the People's Republic of China. The country will hold a National Day military parade before the National Day. As a member of the non-partisan group, Wan Xiaohu was invited by the country to attend the National Day military parade and join the national leaders.  Watch from the top of the city tower.  The military parade is the best opportunity to test the country¡¯s national defense strength. Although the 60th anniversary military parade is smaller than the 50th anniversary military parade, it is the one with the most complete range of military services.  And unlike previous military parades, which always had a large number of imported weapons, in this military parade, from aircraft, missiles, tanks, to artillery, and automatic rifles, the weapons and equipment on display are all "made-in-china" (China  manufacture)".  ??And this aircraft display is also the first time to fly with bombs after the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China.  Throughout the more than 60-minute military parade, Wan Xiaohu was filled with enthusiasm. The country was getting stronger bit by bit, and his sense of pride was slowly rising.  ¡­ After watching the military parade, Wan Xiaohu started his vacation trip again, picking up Quan Zhixian and Wan Chengjun, and went away in style.  Time flies and the end of the year is coming soon.  During this period, in the movies produced by Jiahe Entertainment.  Three of them have very good reviews.  One is "October Siege" directed by Chen Desen and produced by Chen Kexin, starring Nicholas Tse, Wang Xueqi, Tony Leung Ka Fai, Donnie Yen, Li Yuchun, Fan Bingbing, Liming and other stars. The box office received 293.3 million yuan in the mainland and 16.09 million Hong Kong dollars in Hong Kong.  The other film is "Overheard" co-directed by Mak Siu-fai and Zhuang Wenqiang, which received 86.6 million yuan in the mainland.  Hong Kong 15.24 million Hong Kong dollars, box office and reviews are very good.  The other one is "The Journey" starring Xu Zheng and Wang Baoqiang, which grossed nearly 50 million yuan at the box office, becoming an excellent work with a low cost and high box office.  Jiahe Entertainment¡¯s overseas investments are also very impressive.  The first is the co-produced Indian film "Three Idiots in Bollywood" with a budget of 350 million Indian rupees (7.46 million US dollars). As a result, it received nearly 4.7 billion rupees (100 million US dollars) at the global box office, almost all of which was in India.  Contribution, crazy to win the championship in Indian film history.  Secondly, it has been assigned to the Korean Film Company owned by Jun Ji-hyun.  The films invested by several Korean directors, including "Haeundae" by Yoon Ki-kyun and "Representative of the Nation" by Kim Yong-hwa, have all achieved super box office success in South Korea.  Of course, the ability of Asian movies to attract money is still a bit poor, especially Korean movies, which basically die when they go abroad.  The real money maker is Sasha Entertainment.  Sasha Entertainment has released several movies in the second half of this year.  "The Hurt Locker," which started showing in small-scale screenings in September, performed poorly at the box office.  But because of the performance of the reflection on the Iraq War.  Although this kind of introspection by the occupiers seems particularly hypocritical to Wan Xiaohu, Americans just do it.  Back then, I was deceived by George W. Bush and conquered Iraq by force. As a result, the Iraqis are now.  Instead of engaging in head-on confrontation, they engaged in suicide attacks.  The killings made the Americans terrified. They were afraid that their families would die in Iraq, and they wanted to withdraw immediately.  So, anti-war movies like "The Hurt Locker."  It was immediately highly praised by the media and film critics.  Sasha Entertainment also spared no effort and began to build public relations for "The Hurt Locker"'s road to the Olympics, hoping to win two consecutive Oscars for Best Picture. ?????????????????????????????? The sequel is naturally in preparation without any surprise.  ¡°Saw 7¡± was released in November, with US$45.71 million in North America and US$136 million globally. It finally reversed the garbage performance of the sixth film and reached over US$100 million.  Therefore, Sasha Entertainment announced without hesitation that "Saw 8" will continue to be launched next year and will be launched in 3D format.  The highlight of December is here, Sasha Entertainment¡¯s most anticipated movie of the year, ¡°The Twilight Saga: New Moon¡± is released.  The opening performance was US$142.84 million, setting a record for the highest opening weekend in 2009. It ranked second in December opening performance in history and ranked second in holiday (non-weekend) opening performance in history.  ???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????"""  And the "Harry Potter" series can easily cost hundreds of millions.Compared with Japan, this ability to attract money is really exaggerated.  In the end, relying on a strong fan base, "The Twilight Saga: New Moon" achieved a super box office of US$297 million in North America and US$710 million globally, which was almost twice the box office of the first film.  "Sasha Entertainment has a super gold mine. In the foreseeable future, with only the "Twilight" series, there is no need to worry about annual profits!" - "Wall Street Journal" special comment.  "The most brilliant independent film company in 2009 - Sasha Entertainment!" - "Variety".  "The seventh largest in Hollywood?" - "Empire".  At a time when MGM has gone bankrupt, Warner Bros., Disney, Paramount, Sony Columbia, 20th Century Fox and Universal Pictures are the six major Hollywood studios.  No matter in terms of film market share, distribution channels and peripheral development, the Big Six are behemoths.  Sasha Entertainment has surpassed Universal and Paramount at the box office this year, but when it comes to film development, it is far behind these major studios.  However, the future of Sasha Entertainment is so bright and dazzling that it is only a matter of time before it becomes the seventh largest!  ¡°Crazy Sasha Entertainment!¡± This is the latest name given to Sasha Entertainment by the Hollywood media.  ¡­ ¡­ New Year¡¯s Day, January 1, 2010.  Dandelion Building in Beijing, Live Broadcast Hall No. 1, three sofas, a small coffee table and a high-leg bench.  On the coffee table are a "Clockman" puppet from Time Network and a "Navi Princess Neytiri" puppet.  The clock man is the mascot of mtime.com.  It is an alarm clock with a mouth and eyes, and two hands clenched into fists, which represents the alarm clock and also represents the meaning of time.  Neytiri, the princess of the Navi tribe, is the heroine in the movie "Avatar", a blue alien.  There are three people sitting on each of the three sofas.  On the far left is Liu Yan, a beautiful host.  In the middle is James Cameron, the director of "Avatar", and on the far right is Wan Xiaohu.  The high-leg bench is Cameron's translation.  Today James Cameron came to China with "Avatar" to promote it.  As one of the investors, Wan Xiaohu is expected to cooperate and help with publicity, and the domestic distribution rights of "Avatar" are in the hands of Golden Harvest Entertainment.  Therefore, mtime specially hosted a live online program.  "Celebrity Face to Face: Peak Conversation with Film Masters - Cameron, the director of the 3D blockbuster "Avatar", and Wan Xiaohu are guests on mtime!" Host of the program.  It is Liu Yan, the former host of Southeast TV.  Because Time Internet Group has fully entered the field of online video programs, it has produced multiple online programs and spent heavily to poach major TV stations.  That's how Liu Yan was recruited to host Time.com's flagship program "Celebrity Face to Face".  Before the show started, Wan Xiaohu and Cameron were both leaning on the sofa, relaxing and letting themselves go.  The live broadcast hall is not very big, but it does have audience seats.  About a hundred people came today.  These more than 100 people are students from art colleges and universities such as Shanghai Opera, Nortel, China Theater, and School of Communication.  The director directed the staff to keep busy.  After everything was ready, he gave Liu Yan a signal.  Ever since, Liu Yan, who had been peeking at the script just now, immediately smiled at the camera with a smile on his face.  "Celebrity Face to Face, you are here to accompany me! It is now 9:30 in the morning. Friends on the scene and in front of the computer, welcome everyone to watch "Celebrity Face to Face" co-sponsored by mtime and Youku Video. I am the host  Liu Yan. " "Today, we are very honored to invite two world-class directors" After the opening remarks, the interview officially began.  Because it¡¯s mainly for publicity.  The topic naturally started with "Avatar".  This movie has been released in North America for two weeks, and the opening result in the first week was only US$77 million. Compared with the cost of US$500 million, this result can only be said to be unsatisfactory.  Many media even directly despised it, saying that 20th Century Fox was cheated by Cameron and was not far from bankruptcy.  But in the second weekend, "Avatar" only dropped an incredible 1.8%, taking in US$75.6 million. In ten days, it soared to US$213 million in North America, and directly reached US$617 million globally. No one dared to laugh at "Avatar" anymore.  ¡·.  People are shouting wildly that the "Titanic" phenomenon has reappeared.  With huge box office profits, the promotion will naturally be even more intense.  Because in China in recent years, with the promotion of Golden Harvest Entertainment, 3D theaters and IMAX theaters have sprung up, becoming the world's second largest 3D market and IMAX market. The 3D blockbuster "Avatar" naturally shifted its promotion position from North America.  To China.  "What kind of story is "Avatar"?" James Cameron:?"It takes place in the future 2154" "I heard that this is a blockbuster film shot in 3D format. Is there any difference between 3D and ordinary movies?  " The answer was Wan Xiaohu: "3D is not a new technology. In fact, it has been around for a long time. This time, Cameron used the latest 3D photography technology in "Avatar" to produce the most perfect 3D effect.  .  It can transform flat images into three-dimensional images through stereoscopic glasses, as if you are really in a movie.  " "Wow, that's awesome.  I¡¯m curious. Director Wan, although you have never made a 3D movie, I know that you have been driving the 3D market in China?  "Liu Yan" "Well, when I was filming "Rise of the Planet of the Apes" in 2007, I went to Cameron's team for technical support, and then I came into contact with 3D. I also discussed it with Cameron many times and felt that 3D movies would be the most popular.  A trend for the future.  "Wan Xiaohu said. Cameron also chimed in: "Tiger is a very visionary director. He has given me a lot of inspiration in the promotion of 3D.  We often communicate on the phone, and we are consistent in our pursuit of technology.  " "No, no, no, you are much more exaggerated than me. I like and accept new technologies, but you develop new technologies, and the levels are different.  I don't dare to make my own submersible and go into the sea water 10,000 meters deep just to see what's there.  I am still young and cherish life more.  "He shook his head with a smile. "Cameron is a lunatic. He is over 50 years old, and he still makes his own submersible to explore the seabed at a depth of 10,000 meters. Wan Xiaohu would never dare to try this kind of behavior that is similar to seeking death. He is still young.  There are still many beautiful things waiting for him (To be continued)
