Two years later.
It is also the year of the election for the new president of the Film Guild. Both the official and the public have expressed strong support for Lu Hao's re-election.
However, to everyone's surprise, Lu Hao took the initiative to resign and announced his resignation as president of the Film Guild.
In the past five years, Lu Hao has delivered a magnificent performance.
Chinese films have already achieved large-scale overseas expansion, with DreamWorks' plan of exporting 100 films as the seed and banner. As a result, a large number of small and medium-sized film companies have grown up and become rising stars with creative capabilities and familiarity with international film rules.
Among them, it has fully joined the competition in the world film market through various equity penetrations and signing of directors and actors.
During these five years, a large number of international movie stars came to China to make money, while more Chinese filmmakers went abroad, and many global superstars were born among them.
On the day of his resignation, Lu Hao published an article.
——《I Raised This Child》
After five years of hard work, the baby in swaddling clothes has grown up, has its own fists and claws, and has shown considerable potential, and can continue to move forward steadily.
It's time for me to let go.
This article moved countless filmmakers to tears and also made the front page of the leading media, thus concluding that he was a pioneer of Chinese cinema.
With numerous honors and applause, Lu Hao retired gloriously and announced that he would shoot his last movie.
This year, he was already thirty-two years old.
It is the time when a man is at his prime.
It is also the time when a director’s creative ability and talent are at their strongest.
But Lu Hao chose to retire on his own initiative.
The subject matter of this movie not only surprised countless people, but also brought a sense of joy from the heart.
The name of the movie is "The First Half of My Life".
This is almost a documentary-like movie, telling the story of Lu Hao's first half of life, all his connections with movies, and his growth experience at DreamWorks.
To be honest, the quality and subject matter of the film can only be described as average.
Especially compared to Lu Hao's previous films and the films he has created.
However, this film has received special respect because of its special status.
Release day.
Released nationwide.
The screening rate reaches 100%.
However, since the Chinese film market began to operate in a market-oriented manner, the first film to have a 100% screening rate can be traced back to decades ago, when movies were just born and model operas were in vogue.
The box office of this movie also set an unprecedented record in China.
zero.
Lu Hao's last film broke his lowest box office record since he became a director.
Because the movie is free to show.
This joke made countless people laugh and also moved them speechlessly. The number of Lu Hao's fans on Weibo has already exceeded 100 million, and because of this movie, Weibo's server even crashed.
Countless fans and audiences shouted in unison.
——You’re welcome to come back anytime, we all owe you a movie ticket.
Amid the cheers of the crowd, Lu Hao chose to quit the film industry without looking back, waving his sleeves and leaving without a cloud.
…
Lu Hao's office on the 58th floor of DreamWorks headquarters building.
At the age of 32, he looks much more mature than he did five years ago. He is dressed in a suit and has a meticulous hairstyle. His eyes are as deep and unfathomable as the ocean.
Looking at the hustle and bustle of traffic outside the window, there is nothing but calmness in my eyes.
"Are you really sure?"
Sitting on the large office chair, Chu Wen licked her lips and couldn't help but ask with some melancholy.
Two years ago, Lu Hao launched the board of directors and let Chu Wen become the helmsman of DreamWorks, the film empire. At the same time, he introduced professional managers to be responsible for the daily operations of the company.
Now Chu Wen is the nominal chairman.
At this position, ability is actually not important anymore. As long as you don't mess around, there won't be any big trouble.
What's more, Lu Hao has paved all the smooth and stable roads for her.
"It's confirmed. I'm tired and can't play anymore. I want to rest."
Lu Hao looked back at her and said calmly.
So far, all my dreams and desires for movies have been realized.
No more regrets.
Even if I died on the spot now, I would not have any regrets.
Of course, this is a career.
But emotionally, I feel a lot of guilt.
In the past five years, I have focused all my attention on the overall situation. Xiaomeng is in charge of the home, and Chu Wen is in charge of the company. It can be said that I have very little time to spend with them.
Not to mention, there is another Bai Zijin outside.
For the past five years, Lu Hao only saw her once a year, secretly, not daring to let anyone know.
People always have a critical attitude towards successful people.
No matter how awesome you are, once you cheat on your partner or have an illegitimate child, there will always be people who spit at you and call you a scumbag.
Lu Hao couldn't afford the cost of being ruined in these five years because he had more things to do.
And now, everything I wanted to do has been done.
He just wants to be himself now.
"Then what do you want me to do?"
After hearing Lu Hao's answer, Chu Wen remained silent for a long time, pursed her lips, and spoke with a bit of coldness in her eyes.
