When he woke up, the first thing Ye Mingxuan did was to study abroad in the United States. After getting support from his family, he carried out the American dream and cheated on his life. As a result,......

Technical monopoly naturally exists, but it is not an absolute blockade as many people think. In fact, special effects in Hollywood have been liberalized now. Let alone taking orders, there is no problem even buying equipment directly. The price is definitely not as cheap as our own, but it is not outrageously expensive.

Do you think you can use top-notch special effects to create world-class productions?

Stop dreaming. A professional computer for producing special effects costs about 400,000 US dollars, and it can only be used for two years, because it can be updated in two years.

And this is not the scariest thing. The scariest thing is that for online special effects like the Marvel series, each frame of the shot takes the above-mentioned computer fifteen minutes to complete. A one-second special effects shot requires anywhere from fifteen to one hundred frames, and there are also processes such as overlaying dubbing and final rendering of various graphics and graphics.

Therefore, the actual completion time for a qualified special effects shot of one second requires a computer worth 400,000 US dollars to take 300 minutes, which is more than five hours. Even if a movie has five minutes of special effects, that's 1,500 hours. It would take 62.5 days to run at full speed without eating or drinking.

But how could a movie like Avengers and Marvel only have five minutes of special effects? Under normal circumstances, 40% of the plot uses special effects, and in the most exaggerated cases, it even exceeds 80%. Therefore, the normal production mode cannot be completed, so many special effects companies trade efficiency for time.

That is to say, purchase more professional computers and hire more technical personnel, improve work efficiency ten times, twenty times, and thirty times, and complete the production of special effects within a limited time. So the special effects of the movie can be summed up in five words, that is,"funds are burning."

Why Chinese-language films cannot be as sharp and powerful as Hollywood blockbusters? Regardless of factors such as scripts and actors, funding and screening channels are the key. Others use 100 million US dollars for special effects, and the total investment is 200 million US dollars, which seems very high, but other people's movies can be screened around the world and earn box office revenue, but what about you? It doesn’t work outside the mainland. How much box office can you sell?

Therefore, the investment in Chinese-language films is definitely not comparable to that of Hollywood. What's more, who would be willing to let the special effects companies here in the Mainland follow the trend and invest hundreds of millions and billions in the most advanced equipment?

Even Jack Ma doesn’t dare to play like this. If you invest, you may not be able to receive enough orders to recoup the cost. Maybe the first batch of equipment on your side is already outdated before the cost is recouped, and you need to invest additional money in upgrading it..

This is also the reason why Hollywood no longer engages in technical blockade. Is this necessary? It is better to sell some obsolete second-hand equipment to peers like China Entertainment Group at a high price to make money.

At the same time, they also need to receive a large number of orders to make up for the losses from upgrading and maximizing profits. Therefore, the price of receiving orders in Hollywood is not very expensive now, and the increase is within 20% of the normal market.

However, even many giants in Hollywood are feeling the pressure to invest hundreds of millions of dollars in special effects. Yours is 20% more expensive. How competitive do you think you still are? What's more, equipment is only one aspect, professional talents and the corresponding talent system are also very important.

None of these exist in China, or they have just started. The Hollywood side is basically monopolized by the Big Six. It has become their core territory and will not give outsiders a chance to intervene. Therefore, Ye Mingxuan can only choose to focus on the mainland as the focus of development and slowly pursue it.

Who knows that what he is most familiar with is the entertainment industry, and other fields should not be mistreated by those capital giants, international plutocrats.

Lin Yoona naturally understood, and at the same time, her evaluation of Ye Mingxuan was getting higher and higher. It seemed that this young master was not only talented, but also really had something in his stomach. He also had a comprehensive plan."Produce 101" was just him This is a work that tests the waters, and there may be a shocking plan behind it that outsiders cannot understand or guess for the time being.

Wu Xuanyi and Meng Meiqi naturally glanced at each other secretly, and saw shock in each other's eyes. They discovered that Ye Mingxuan, the leader of the group, was not as simple as he seemed on the surface, and he definitely did not get into this position by relying on any background or family. Your position and your abilities are probably very powerful. Hollywood won’t recognize you as a penguin-to-be.
