"Mr. Xiao Lin, my father invites you to visit my home when you have time." Xie Tingfeng smiled and extended the invitation.

"Haha, of course I will go to Fourth Brother's invitation. Unfortunately, I have to go to Taiwan at noon. I will definitely pay him a visit next time I have time." Chen Lin laughed and happily accepted the invitation.

Next, the two of them drank tea and ate snacks and talked about many topics. Nicholas Tse found that Chen Lin had a wide range of knowledge and had many views that he had never heard of. Especially when it came to computer special effects in Hollywood blockbusters, Chen Lin's insights deeply impressed him.

Feeling.

Nicholas Tse was born when Hong Kong films were in their last glorious period. Growing up, he witnessed with his own eyes the entire process of Hong Kong films from their peak to their decline.

Computer special effects technology has become a concern for Hong Kong filmmakers. They are no strangers to stunts. In the 1980s, there were a large number of people engaged in behind-the-scenes stunt work in Hong Kong. In fact, Hong Kong filmmakers knew about it from the beginning.

Hollywood computer special effects, but did not attract attention.

Maybe it's arrogance, maybe it's conservative ideas, but in short, Hong Kong filmmakers have always scorned computer special effects, thinking that this thing is just a trivial and unimportant thing.

But Hollywood used computer special effects that made them sneer and opened up the Hong Kong film market. In 1993, Spielberg's "Jurassic Park" landed in Hong Kong.

Hong Kong citizens experienced a high-tech feast for the first time. The lifelike dinosaurs in the film shocked all filmmakers. Then came another "Terminator", in which the liquid metal man made Hong Kong movies

People finally realized that they had underestimated computer special effects.

"Mr. Xiao Lin, why can Hollywood defeat us with computer special effects? Is it really so magical?" Nicholas Tse asked.

"It's not that simple. We have our own reasons for the decline of Hong Kong films." Chen Lin shook his head and said, but the topic between the two of them was not to discuss the reasons for the decline of Hong Kong films, so he didn't say much, and the topic returned to special effects technology:

"Actually, computer special effects are not difficult to understand. It's like there is an ugly woman who is extremely ugly in appearance but has a beautiful soul. You say how many men are willing to touch her. If no one is willing to touch her, how can the beauty of her soul be known to people?

What? Computer special effects and beauty technology can give this ugly girl plastic surgery and give her a new lease of life."

"Yes, I understand." Nicholas Tse understood such a simple truth as soon as he heard it, but he also wondered: "Then if we also have our own special effects company, can we make blockbusters like Hollywood?"

"It's not that simple. The investment in special effects technology requires a huge amount of money. How many film companies in Hong Kong can afford it? Even if money is not a problem, even if they follow the same pattern and create special effects companies, they still can't make Terminator.

Plant a large area." Chen Lin sighed.

"Why?" Nicholas Tse wonders why he can't make a film even if he has his own special effects company. There are so many film talents in Hong Kong that there's no reason why he can't make a film.

"Here." Chen Lin saw Ting Feng's confusion and pointed to his head and explained: "If the concept does not change, the model and system of film shooting do not change, and the training and utilization of talents do not change, even if we have our own special effects company,

To no avail.”

Then Chen Lin said that the emergence of computer special effects essentially means that the Hollywood movie model has fully entered industrialization and digitization.

What is industrialization? To put it simply, industrialization is to refine the entire process of a movie from birth to release, and divide it into many processes like making a product. Each link has undergone rigorous scientific planning and preliminary deployment. Every step

All have been double-checked by standardized film art research and development standards and market research standards. The entire film has been carefully designed from the beginning. From big scenes, big stars, big investments to final returns, all are in accordance with design standards, quality standards and

The management standards are accurately calculated and are extremely replicable, imitable and mass-produced.

Chen Lin's insights opened Ting Feng's eyes, and he was now completely convinced by Chen Lin. It was the opportunity of this conversation that made the two of them naturally cooperate to open a computer special effects company to make contributions to China's film special effects technology.

made outstanding contributions.

The two chatted for a long time until Chen Lin received a call from Brother Xian urging him to prepare to leave for Taipei.

Before leaving, Chen Lin invited Nicholas Tse to join the Jade Emperor Agency, and he agreed without hesitation.

Chen Lin said goodbye to Ting Feng very happily, and then went directly to the airport to meet his three elder brothers. On the way to the airport, he dialed Yu Yu's phone number.

"Mr. Xiaolin, what instructions do you have?" Yu Yu said with a smile on the phone.

"How come my nickname spread so fast, even you know it!" Chen Lin was surprised, but he was so happy about signing Nicholas Tse that he didn't pay attention to these small things. He immediately reported the good news to his wife.

"I see you are happy. Is there anything special about this Tingfeng?" Yu Yu asked.

"Haha, Ting Feng has the potential to become a superstar. Can the company be unhappy about signing a future superstar?" Chen Lin smiled, and then said: "Yu'er, I'm going to Taipei soon so I don't want to talk to you anymore.

Well, one of you and Yue Ya will rush to Hong Kong immediately to sign Ting Feng’s contract. It’s best to sign it tomorrow to avoid long nights and dreams.”

"Well, I asked Yue Ya to go to Hong Kong in the afternoon. She is an expert in this field. From now on, she will be responsible for the contract." Yu Yu heard that Chen Lin attached great importance to Nicholas Tse and immediately made arrangements. Then she was concerned

He said: "Lin Lin, you should take care of your health outside and don't get tired, especially if you don't drink more than three drinks, you know?"

"I know, honey, I'm hanging up." After hanging up, Chen Lin stuck out his tongue. He drank too much last night and he didn't dare to say this.

After a while, Chen Lin rushed to the airport and flew to Taipei with several elder brothers.

At the Taipei Airport, Chen Lin saw teacher Kang Yong and Zhang Xiaoyan, the host of "Xiaoyan's Date" and known as the godmother of variety shows, coming to pick them up.

"Teacher Kangyong, the students miss you very much!" Chen Lin hugged Cai Kangyong in an exaggerated manner.

"Sister Xiaoyan, let me introduce my student." Cai Kangyong smiled and introduced Chen Lin and Sister Xiaoyan. As for the other three elder brothers, there is no need for introduction. We are all acquaintances and no need to introduce.

"Sister Xiaoyan, when I see you, it's like seeing my sister, you are very kind." Chen Lin hugged Zhang Xiaoyan naturally and said cordially.

"Haha, Sister Xiaoyan would be very happy to have a younger brother like you." Zhang Xiaoyan smiled brightly. She looked at Chen Lin's handsome, young and promising figure, and she really liked him.

"Really! That's great, then I will really recognize you as my sister. Sister, I want to hug you again." Chen Lin hugged Zhang Xiaoyan again.

Zhang Xiaoyan happily accepted such a younger brother, but the faces of Cai Kangyong and Brother Xian next to her were different. They both looked weird, because the scene in front of them was very familiar.

"Kangyong, Brother Xian, what are your expressions?" At this time, Liu Tianwang noticed the expressions of the two people and asked curiously.

"Haha!" Wu Zongxian and Cai Kangyong looked at each other and laughed. Now even Ke Shiliang and Zhang Xiaoyan became curious, not knowing why they were laughing.

"Our Mr. Xiao Lin has such a sweet mouth, and his ability to recognize relatives is too great. Here's what happened." Cai Kangyong told the story of how Chen Lin recognized him as his teacher, and finally said with a smile: "Suddenly there was an extra one for no reason.

Students, everyone says I am helpless."

Haha, everyone couldn't help laughing after hearing this, but Chen Lin blinked and pretended to be innocent.

"Just kidding, I really recognized Mr. Xiao Lin as my younger brother today. After recording the show, I will hold a banquet to honor my younger brother." Zhang Xiaoyan suddenly said seriously after laughing.

"Haha, my sister is just good to me." Chen Lin immediately jumped to Zhang Xiaoyan and held her hand and said happily. Before it was over, he raised his head and proudly showed his pride to his elder brothers.

The elder brothers were speechless at his shamelessness, and they could only give thumbs up in resignation.

The atmosphere during the evening recording of "Xiaoyan's Appointment" was a talk show. Chen Lin and others sat on the sofa to be interviewed by Sister Xiaoyan, and Cai Kangyong also sat aside as a guest.

Sister Xiaoyan's program made Chen Lin feel very comfortable. She was like a big sister who could make every guest feel warm. The most heartwarming scene in the program was when Ke Xueliang talked about his acquaintance with Chen Lin in public for the first time.

Bit by bit, he also mentioned that he was forced by Chen Lin to sign a contract to quit drinking.

Speaking of touching the scene, Ke Shiliang, a tough-minded man, had his eyes red. Chen Lin couldn't help but get up and hug Brother Hei. Soon Andy and Brother Xian were infected and got up at the same time, so the four brothers hugged each other.

, Sister Xiaoyan and Kangyong both stood up and applauded them.

This scene was transmitted to thousands of households through the TV screen. Many viewers remembered Chen Lin's young face for the first time. Many people were a little jealous when they saw Chen Lin calling himself brothers with Liu Tianwang and others at such a young age. Some

They all maliciously speculated that his true identity must be a rich and powerful young man from some family, otherwise why would he be taken care of by several elder brothers. Now that they saw this scene, they all changed their minds.

At the same time, Ou Di, Xiao Zhu, Lin Zhiling, Jay Chou and other friends from Taiwan, as well as Nicholas Tse and his family at home in Hong Kong, Zeng Zhiwei are all watching the program. Everyone who is familiar with Chen Lin is interested in him after watching the program.

There is a feeling of reacquaintance.

After the show ended, Chen Lin and others regained their emotions for a while and accepted the flowers and blessings from the audience, and the scene was filled with joy.

After the show ended, Sister Xiaoyan invited everyone to her home. She wanted to cook for everyone herself. Not only that, she also called a few friends to accompany her. One of Sister Xiaoyan's friends was used to seeing celebrities.

Chen Lin was a little dazzled.

This friend is Wu Qilong, whom everyone affectionately called "Fourth Master" in his previous life.
