Chapter 853 Additional Investment (4100+ chapters, please subscribe~)

Although Zhu Zhuo said that there is no major event here in Yanjing, there is actually one event that can be regarded as a major event in the domestic film industry this year!

That is the second Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival held in Yangcheng in September!

In fact, at this year's Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival, Wu Jianye's "The World of Chu Xing" was the biggest hit, and was nominated for Best Feature Film, Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Screenplay, Six Awards for Best Photography!
Although the second Golden Rooster Bahua Film Festival will not be held until September, in fact, the judges of the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival have already started viewing, discussing and judging in Huairou!

The chairman of this year's jury is the former director of Bayi Film Studio, with a frighteningly high military rank.

Originally, the biggest winner of this year's Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival should be Zhang Yimou's "Qiu Ju's Lawsuit", but because the film was moved ahead of schedule, it became the biggest winner at the first Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival last year!

The holding of the Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival was actually related to the domestic film format at that time. With the gradual decline in the number of domestic moviegoers, the Golden Rooster Award and the Hundred Flowers Award decided to merge and became the current Golden Rooster and Hundred Flowers Film Festival!
"Then shall we go there before the film festival, or after the film festival?" Zhu Zhuo asked.

"The World of Chu Xing" is the film with the most nominations in this year's film festival. Wu Jianye is definitely going to participate. Ye Ye called and asked him to attend!

Director Xiao's face cannot be refuted, so what should go must go.

"Let's go there ahead of time, and then go directly to Yangcheng from Shimen!" Wu Jianye said after thinking for a while.

Zhu Zhu suddenly thought: "How about we take Yiyi there too, let Yiyi stay there with Xiaoqing and the others for a week, and when he starts school, I will bring him back to Yanjing, and then you Go back home to spend time with mom?"

When Wu Jianye thought about it, it was pretty good, but there is still one more difficult thing to deal with, that is, the problem of framing the new movie. But Wu Jianye thought about it, and he was not in a hurry to confirm the framing. Now Tan Yang According to news from the side, Li Yapeng and Yu Feihong still have to train for a while, and Liang Zhengting and Huang Zilu still have a lot of work to do.

Judging from the current progress, the new movie will definitely not start shooting until next year!

"I think it's okay, how about it, I will arrange this matter in these two days!"

Zhu Zhu was also very happy to see that Wu Jianye had no objections.

Wu Nianyi dragged him over to watch TV and asked, "Yiyi, mom and dad will take you to find more children to play with, okay?"

Wu Nianyi said directly: "Mom, I don't want to go to school!"

Wu Jianye: "."

Zhu Zhuo also had black lines all over his head, and he said through grinding his teeth, "It's not going to school, it's going to play with many children!"

Wu Nianyi looked at Zhu Yan in disbelief, and asked, "Is it really just for fun?"

"real!"

At this time, Wu Jianye felt that he heard the sound of teeth grinding.

"Alright then!" Wu Nianyi said happily.

Wu Jianye glanced helplessly at Wu Nianyi, even if you don't agree to this kind of thing, you still can't decide!

The next day, Wu Jianye came to Tangting Culture, but this time Wu Jianye did not go to the third floor, but to the new Tangting Building next to it which had just been put into use!
In July, the decoration had been completed. Xia Xiaohong called Wu Jianye, hoping that Wu Jianye could preside over the relocation ceremony, but at that time, Wu Jianye was filming with Zhao Fei and others, so Xia Xiaohong asked Just wait for someone to move it by themselves.

Regarding Wu Jianye's decision, Xia Xiaohong was also quite helpless.

At this time, Wu Jianye no longer cared about these formalities anymore!
At this moment, what Wu Jianye saw was a 21-story building. The style of this building was somewhat similar to the Twin Towers in Zhongguancun, but it was not as grand as the Twin Towers. From the outside, it looked like a three-story chassis, supporting the upper part of the building. Two 18-storey buildings.

Compared with the Twin Towers, the footprint here is not much.

The overall style is dark blue.

At this time, Xia Xiaohong, Li Xiaowan, and Huang Jianxin were already waiting for Wu Jianye at the door.

"It's finally a shotgun change, not bad!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.

Because Xia Xiaohong was Wu Jianye's secretary before, many times when Xia Xiaohong, Li Xiaowan, and Huang Jianxin appeared together, it was Xia Xiaohong who communicated with Wu Jianye.

"Director Wu, we've all moved here now. I've discussed with Mr. Li and Mr. Huang. Shall we hold a relocation ceremony when your people come over?" Xia Xiaohong asked.

The special effects company, TV department, film department, animation department, music department, artist department and other dignified cultural departments have now moved here, except for some employees on the third floor where Wu Jianye is currently working.

Wu Jianye shook his head and said, "Didn't I tell you a long time ago that I won't move over there, and I will leave it to you to work here!"

Wu Jianye is still used to the three-story building he used to live in, and doesn't want to move anymore!

Xia Xiaohong said in embarrassment: "But if this is the case, we"

"Okay, that's the decision." Wu Jianye waved his hand and walked in directly.

The first floor is a huge hall, and the two receptionists have already stood up and waited for Wu Jianye and others.

Wu Jianye simply glanced at the environment here, and asked Xia Xiaohong, "Which floor is the special effects company on?"

As the special effects team moved over, they also formally divested Tangting Culture and formed their own company, but it was fully controlled by Tangting Culture.

"The thirteenth floor!" Xia Xiaohong replied.

Wu Jianye smiled: "Let's go, I'm here for them this time!"

Accompanied by the three of them, Wu Jianye got on the elevator and headed straight to Tangting Special Effects Company on the [-]th floor.

Liang Zhengting and Huang Zilu were already waiting for Wu Jianye at the elevator door.

"How about it, the environment here is similar to the digital field this time?" Wu Jianye joked after seeing the two of them.

The smile on Liang Zhengting's face perfectly explained what is called spring breeze and horseshoe disease, "much stronger, much stronger than the digital field!"

Wu Jianye said: "Let's go, take me to see the results of your work during this period of time!"

Xia Xiaohong, Li Xiaowan, and Huang Jianxin looked at Wu Jianye's high-spirited look, and they still had some fun in their hearts.

The establishment of Tangting Special Effects gave them a sense of crisis in their hearts, which can be seen from Wu Jianye's investment in Tangting Special Effects.

The registered capital of the entire hall special effects is 4000 million US dollars!
Not only that, but the speed at which they spent money made the three of them even more envious. In just half a year, they had already spent nearly 4000 million RMB!
If it wasn't for Wu Jianye's pressure here, he would have been blown away if he switched to another company!

Wu Jianye followed Liang Zhengting and Huang Zilu to the model room!
The model room was about the size of a basketball court. When Wu Jianye walked in, he could already see that many people were working hard here. At the same time, in the corner of the model room, some of them had already been made. model.

Liang Zhengting came here with Wu Jianye and others, pointed at the beast in front of him, with an excited smile on his face, and said, "Director Wu, this is the model of Qilin!"

Lion head, antlers, tiger eyes, moose body, dragon scales, oxtail.

Coupled with the ferocious expression it made, Wu Jianye had the shock of seeing a dinosaur model for the first time.

Put your hands on it, and you can even clearly feel the layering brought by the scales on its body.

"Not bad, very good!" Wu Jianye admired sincerely. If such a Chinese mythical beast is entrusted to a foreigner, it will definitely not be able to achieve such charm!
"This is the model of Xuanwu!" Liang Zhengting pointed to the giant tortoise model next to him, the smile on his face still undiminished.

At this time, Wu Jianye had returned to normal, and said with a smile, "You don't need to introduce them one by one. I'll guess for myself. This is the white tiger."

Next to Xuanwu, a white-haired tiger with an extra pair of wings is obviously the white tiger, one of the four spirits.

"Why are there only two four spirits?" Wu Jianye didn't find the models of Qinglong and Suzaku.

Liang Zhengting smiled sheepishly, and said: "Because the production of Qinglong and Suzaku is time-consuming, we haven't found suitable substitutes for some parts, so..."

Wu Jianye nodded to express his understanding, and then asked, "Has the computer model been made yet?"

There are not only unicorns, basalts, and white tigers, but also other mythical beasts, such as the white ape on Tangting Mountain, the huai on Yaoguang Mountain, and the huan on Yiwang Mountain. There are more than twenty!

Liang Zhengting immediately said: "Part of it has already been made!"

Wu Jianye quickly said, "Take me to see it!"

When he walked out of the model room, Wu Jianye saw a few people in the middle of the room putting scales on a four- to five-meter-long beast. Obviously, it should be the Azure Dragon!
Liang Zhengting brought Wu Jianye and others to the computer special effects room again.

Although this place is not as big as the model room just now, it is more lively. You can see many people busy here, and at the same time, there are various papers of gods and beasts with their appearances painted on their tables.

Liang Zhengting said: "After the establishment of Tangting Special Effects Company, we recruited some students in the Academy of Fine Arts, and at the same time hired several professors, and they drew us various paintings of mythical animals. Our model team and computer special effects team also They will make combinations based on the mythical beasts they drew, and because of the manpower, I also decided to recruit a group of fresh graduates from the Film Academy.”

"You don't need to tell me these things, I'll just ask you if you have enough people?"

Liang Zhengting smiled wryly, and said, "Director Wu, to be honest, it's not enough!"

Wu Jianye immediately said to Xia Xiaohong, "Drop some people from the animation team."

What else can Xia Xiaohong say at this time, she can only nod her head in agreement!

Several people came to Liang Zhengting's office. On his computer, they finally saw the effect generated by computer animation.

At the first glance, Wu Jianye knew that people like Liang Zhengting were not wasteful in the digital field. Simply looking at these effects, they were no worse than the original "Jurassic Park"!
At this time, Liang Zhengting began to introduce a divine beast to Wu Jianye, a divine beast.

Wu Jianye was also listening carefully, and finally asked, "When will it be over?"

At this time, Huang Zilu finally spoke: "It would be impossible to make all the mythical beasts in the Book of Mountains and Seas within three or four years, but if we complete the ones that Director Wu told you, we are confident that we will finish them by the end of this year. "

"Okay, then I'll wait for your good news!"

At this time, Wu Jianye finally felt relieved!

But not everything is going smoothly. For example, now Liang Zhengting raised his own question: "Director Wu, the special effects fee of 8500 million is probably not enough. According to our calculations, even if it is to complete the special effects of these beasts, it will already be necessary." It cost nearly 8000 million, and if you add other special effects you added to the movie, 8500 million is definitely not enough!"

Wu Jianye had already calculated before that the shooting cost of the new movie, the use outside of special effects, including film remuneration and others, was almost 1500 million, and the cost of the entire special effects was 8500 million, and now Liang Zhengting has already proposed that it is not enough!
Wu Jianye asked directly: "How much more do you need?"

"At least 2500 million more!" Liang Zhengting was not polite.

The expressions of Xia Xiaohong and the other three on the side changed slightly. The production cost of the entire film that Wu Jianye had calculated before was already a staggering 1 million RMB. Probably not surprised!

Wu Jianye said: "I'll give you 3000 million, just one request, the special effects of the movie can only be better than "Jurassic Park", not worse than him!"

This means that in China, labor and the like are cheap. If it is done in North America, it is estimated that the cost will have to double.

When Liang Zhengting heard Wu Jianye's support, he immediately laughed and said, "Director Wu, I dare to issue a military order with you!"

"it is good!"

When Wu Jianye came out from Tangting Special Effects, he returned to his third floor, and Huang Jianxin followed him.

"What's the matter?" Wu Jianye asked Huang Jianxin, looking at Huang Jianxin who was hesitant to speak.

"Director Wu, I just watched the things made by Tangting's special effects, and they are indeed very shocking, but have you ever thought that the style of these mythical beasts is a bit too much?" Huang Jianxin organized his own language and continued: "It's too real and terrifying. , will it scare some viewers?"

This is not because Huang Jianxin is jealous of Liang Zhengting and others, but from his own professional point of view. Nowadays, domestic mythological dramas are more about making these mythical beasts less real and terrifying. He is worried that the current audience will accept this. no!

Wu Jianye smiled: "You don't have to worry about this, this is what I want. If there is a problem with this, I will take responsibility!"

In fact, this style is exactly what Wu Jianye requested. Whether it is a mythical beast or a fierce beast, in mythology, they are never known for their cuteness.

And
"The bigger market for this movie is overseas." Wu Jianye said.

Why did "Jurassic Park" succeed? Isn't it because it truly showed the dinosaurs of the Cretaceous Age to audiences all over the world?
