I'm almost a Muggle

Chapter 236 Doing special effects, it really doesn't make money

Not to mention, the effect is really there.

Theoretically, temperament cannot be solved quickly, but if you read a lot and have a deeper understanding of ancient culture, you will be able to leak out some bookishness without even realizing it.

The director who came to Lin Dong to discuss a mobile phone promotional video brought two plans.

One background is an airport, and the other is a library. Originally, he thought that Lin Dong should be more urban, so he preferred the airport solution.

But after meeting and chatting, the director changed his mind.

In the background, there is a library, blue sky, white clouds, glass sky, and rows of bookshelves.

The story begins with a lost mobile phone, in which Lin Dong plays a bookish college student.

The filming went very smoothly. The male lead, Lin Dong, is an actor recognized by international film festivals. The female lead, a Chinese opera student, acted in her true colors. It only took three hours to wrap up.

In three hours, Lin Dong earned four million.

Not only was he given four million, but he was also given 20 of the latest and highest-end mobile phones.

After Lin Dong took these twenty mobile phones back, he called Chen Xiaoman over and asked her to win a lottery.

Each person is given a number, the same number is written on the ping pong ball, thrown into the box and nineteen are found.

Although the treatment from Crest Culture Media is very good, no one would mind if it was given away for free. Everyone ran to participate enthusiastically. Even if they don't use it themselves, it would be nice to take it back and give it to their families.

Lin Dong changed his mobile phone sim card and stuffed it into the new mobile phone he had left behind.

It's not that he takes advantage of this.

Since you have received endorsement fees from others, it will take at least a year and a half to be able to afford the four million yuan, right?

"Is there a lottery? I'll go, why don't you wait for me!" Du Qixi appeared in front of Lin Dong with an unshaven face, just in time for the last mobile phone to be taken away.

"How much money do you have, how dare you compete with others for a mobile phone?" Lin Dong sat in the new office holding a book in his hand.

Looking out the window of his new office, you can see the huge ginkgo tree.

It's summer now, and the ginkgo trees haven't looked good yet.

Just whether it looks good or not is the definition given by humans. For it, every day of six hundred years of wind, rain, cold and heat is spent in an ordinary way.

Don't be surprised by favor or disgrace, just watch the flowers blooming and falling in front of the court; you have no intention of leaving or leaving, just follow the rolling clouds in the sky.

"I bought this mobile phone last year. It's not broken. I can't throw it away and there's no reason to replace it." Du Qixi sighed and threw the purple-cased mobile phone on the coffee table.

"How is the movie?" Lin Dong asked.

"I have already applied for the Venice International Film Festival. Let's wait for the news. It will be released in September. I will only make one movie a year." Du Qixi still followed his old path, first going to the International Film Festival to win a wave of awards, and then release it.

Such an idiot has no idea what the International Film Festival sees in him.

This time I filmed the story of Long Aotian, a boy from a mountain village who is proud of the city, and he actually dared to win an award at the Venice International Film Festival.

The jury doesn't like Chinese films that much.

"That's fine. You don't need to take too many pictures. Quality is king." Lin Dong thought for a while and asked, "Brother Qixi, do you still remember your original idea?"

"Initial thoughts?" Du Qixi was stunned for a moment.

In the past two years, his life has been more fantasy than Zhang Sanpang. Not only has he become a director with a box office of 600 million, but he has also won two international film festival awards. At the age of 24 this year, he has become the most watched in the domestic film industry.

of emerging directors.

"Yeah, I still remember your first film, it's not a new one." Lin Dong started to stir up emotion.

"In fact, I've already made almost all the changes to that movie, and it passed without any problems. But looking back now, that movie was just like a joke. I had no shame in showing it." Du Qixi sighed.

"If a person finds that he was stupid in the past, it can only mean that he has grown up. If a person always talks about his past glory, he will definitely have a bad life."

It comforts people, who can’t?

"Dongzi, what do you want to say?" Du Qixi felt very comfortable being photographed.

When he was still in school, who would have thought that he would reach this year? He has always felt that his rise in life started with his first film collaboration with Lin Dong.

You put in the money and I film.

"Brother Qixi, what I mean is, do you still have your fantasy dream? Do you want to make a real fantasy blockbuster?" Lin Dong finally revealed his fox tail.

Brother, I recruited you to help me lose money. We can't forget our original intention.

"Fantasy movie." Du Qixi's expression was complicated. He was originally in a good mood, but after Lin Dong's actions, he suddenly became heavy.

"Yes, I have always remembered it. You were determined to make a Chinese fantasy movie. I think we can reshoot your original "Mountains and Seas"." Lin Dong encouraged.

He didn't dare to assign other themes to Du Qixi, for fear of being cheated.

I have shot "Strange Stories of Mountains and Seas" once before, with a production cost of 320,000 yuan, and the result is no different from a ppt.

Why not invest heavily and start over?

"Dongzi, I have considered this matter more than once in the past two years. I have finally figured it out. If I really want to do a good job and film The Classic of Mountains and Seas, the special effects must keep up..."

"There are many special effects talents abroad. I plan to invite half of the foreign special effects masters and match half of our own people to form a special effects company."

Lin Dong knows about special effects.

Burning money, thieves are burning money.

Even if Lin Dong sets up a special effects company, he doesn't have to worry about making money.

The original author of "Pi" once believed that this was a work that could not be made into a movie.

Director Li Xu took over the film after a fierce ideological struggle, and in 2012, he dreamily presented this "most difficult film in the world" to the big screen.

I won’t talk about the content. Countless people have interpreted this movie in various ways.

In this 127-minute fantasy adventure in front of the audience, what they really faced was a technical challenge.

Malaysian digital studio r&h was responsible for completing the film's main visual effects: including a lifelike Bengal tiger, a hyena, an orangutan, a zebra and the endless sea.

When these animals and scenes appeared on the screen, perhaps no audience believed that these dreamlike and vivid scenes, as if the animals could be touched with a hand, were all completed through computers in a small studio.

The Pacific Ocean, which is sometimes calm and sometimes rough, is just a pool built in an abandoned airport.

Li Shu's "Pi" won four awards at the 85th Academy Awards.

R&H won the award for Best Special Effects. Four people went on stage to accept the award. When they made their speeches and mentioned the bankruptcy incident, they were interrupted by the rude Jaws music. After 44 seconds, the microphone was muted and they were asked to leave the stage.

On the other hand, the award for Best Cinematography was also won by the Young Pioneer, and one person only spoke for one minute.

Coupled with the fact that Pi director Li Xun accidentally left out r&h in his Oscar speech, this honest mistake and the talk about wanting special effects to be cheaper made the whole thing even more inflamed.

This is an embarrassing moment that humiliates all special effects people.

From 2003 to 2013, 21 famous large-scale special effects companies around the world closed or went bankrupt, but 49 of the 50 most profitable films during this period were closely related to computer special effects.

You really can’t make money as a special effects company!
