China Entertainment: I became a capital tycoon

Chapter 235 233. This music is not good
"It's true that Cao Cao and Cao Cao are here. He's so mysterious."

When Liu Xiaoli heard the voice, she knew who it was, and she was overjoyed. Just as she was about to get up to say hello, she saw a blue avatar sister running over like the wind, and threw herself directly into the arms of the visitor.

"What a beautiful little sister Avatar with pointed ears."

Cao Yu looked at the girl in his arms, looked up and down, but his mind was thinking wildly.

"It's ugly, and it has a blue tail."

Although praised by Cao Yu, Liu Yifei was flattered in her heart. She got off Cao Yu and wanted to show off her figure, but soon found that the blue paint on her body had stained Cao Yu's clothes.

"I forgot this and the color faded. After I finished filming, I changed my clothes and we went out to play together."

"No need to change, I just like Avatar."

"That won't work. This look can't be exposed yet."

Liu Yifei smiled sweetly, and then found that the crew was waiting for her, and said embarrassedly: "I'm so excited to see you, I forgot how many shots I haven't filmed yet."

After speaking, he hesitated whether to kiss Cao Yu or not.

"Cough cough."

Liu Xiaoli knew her daughter quite well, and immediately coughed lightly to remind her to pay attention to the influence.

"Mom, this is the United States"

Liu Yifei naturally knew what her mother was thinking, so she retorted, and then she kissed Cao Yu's face openly, and said, "Wait for me, the filming is almost over."

"Ah."

Cao Yu nodded, and when the little girl left, he unceremoniously sat on Liu Yifei's red chair.

"Hey"

Liu Xiaoli glanced at Cao Yu and sighed: "Xiao Cao, when did you come? Why didn't you say anything?"

Cao Yu said: "It's morning, is Auntie used to it here?"

"I stayed there for a few years before, but I still feel that China is better, but there is no way. I'm not around, and I'm worried that Sissy won't be able to take care of me."

"Auntie, Sissi has grown up. Sometimes you should let go and not be so strict."

"Haha. I know the truth."

Liu Xiaoli responded with a sentence, but said in her heart: "Let go? I guess I, a silly girl, have been harmed by you long ago."

But thinking that his daughter has known him for so many years, this matter will probably happen sooner or later, and he feels helpless.

He had a good impression of Cao Yu, and he had witnessed the child's transformation from just a young actor to a man of the hour in the entertainment industry, and he admired him very much.

More importantly, he is very talented and a nice person.

It's just a little playful, afraid that he will disappoint his daughter and repeat his unfortunate marriage.

Hearing that Cao Yu didn't speak for a long time, she felt that the atmosphere was a bit silent and asked: "Xiao Cao, how is your injury?"

"Healed early, a little skin trauma."

"I asked Cici's biological father to put some pressure on the relevant departments, and Auntie can only help you so much."

"I know"

When the incident of being hacked was the worst, Liu Xiaoli's ex-husband did say something, and Cao Yu appreciates that.

After chatting for a while, after a few shots, director James also came over and gave Cao Yu a hug.

"Cao, hello, long time no see."

Now that Cao Yu has a certain status in the entertainment industry, James's attitude is indeed much better than before.

"James, you've worked hard!"

With a light hug, Cao Yu asked, "Director James, how is the filming going?"

"The required shots can be completed in a month at most. Although the post-production has started, it is estimated that it will take another two years."

It takes two or three years to shoot a movie. For the director, this kind of thing is unimaginable, but for James, it is perfectly normal.

"Don't worry, I trust Director James."

But Cao Yu was not surprised. Slow work brings out fine work, but he still asked: "I want to see the finished clip."

"Of course it's fine."

This is the funder. If the effect is satisfactory, it will be convenient for him to ask for more money in case he overspends. James promised that he would take Cao Yu to the special effects department.

Cao Yu looked at Liu Yifei who was not far away and was about to come over, and said with a smile: "Can they come together?"

James said without hesitation: "Of course."

When Liu Xiaoli and her daughter entered the set, they had already signed a non-disclosure agreement, otherwise it would not be possible to appear on the set every day.

A group of people came to the special effects team in the digital field, and everyone was busy on the computer.

Most of the shots of "Avatar" are aliens. Although some locations were taken around the world, most of them need to be combined with the shots of characters.

This workload is quite huge.After nearly a year, less than one-third of the post-production was completed.

But in this one-third, Cao Yu has roughly seen the prototype of the movie that year.

In the past year, Liu Xiaoli has seen her daughter filming under the green curtain most of the time, but when she saw these finished shots, she was a little shocked.

"Is this the post-production special effect? ​​It's simply too strong."

Then he glanced at his daughter who was equally astonished, and thought, "It seems that this film will make my daughter a superstar."

Cao Yu watched these clips and thought to himself: "No wonder "Avatar" won the Oscar for Best Visual Effects. Director James is really great."

Then he thought again: "I seem to remember that this film was nominated for many Oscars, but it didn't win many awards in the end. Since I invested so much, how can I not win more awards?"

After watching the ten-minute clip, he asked: "How is the soundtrack of the movie?"

"We have already done."

James smiled, very confident.

"Then let me listen."

"can."

James came to a computer, opened a file, and then handed the headphones to Cao Yu.

In fact, the music was pretty good, and the songs were pretty good too. Cao Yu remembered that this music seemed to have only been nominated for Oscars. After listening to it for a while, he took off his headphones and shook his head.

"Can't you?"

"No, it's a bit difficult for this soundtrack to win an Oscar."

Cao Yu actually wanted them to make better music. As soon as he said this, a man stood up and said, "What? My music is not good?"

"Who is this?"

Cao Yu didn't know him, but he thought this person was a bit crazy.

"He's the music director on the film, his name is Horner."

James introduced it, and then said to the man, "This is Cao from Huaxia Feiyu Entertainment, one of the investors of this film."

Seeing that Cao Yu was still confused, Liu Xiaoli reminded: "Xiao Cao, he is the winner of the Oscar for Best Original Song and Best Score for Drama, and he wrote the song "My Heart Will Eternal"."

"Oh, no wonder, it turned out to be a great man."

Cao Yu nodded and said with a smile: "Mr. Horner, I'm not saying that your score is not good. I just think that this kind of music needs to be better, otherwise it may be difficult to win another award."

"What's wrong?"

"It's not atmospheric enough, not shocking enough, especially the part where the army gathers before the final battle. The music needs to be able to penetrate people's hearts and make people feel excited."

Cao Yu has listened to many divine comedies anyway, and the music of "Avatar" did not win an award, and it is not at the same level as this person's previous "Titanic".

"Chinese people"

Horner is still very confident in his music, and he feels that this Chinese man is nitpicking.

"What happened to the Chinese people?"

If Horner said the following words, perhaps Cao Yu would not feel anything, but this person thought that Cao Yu was an investor, and he hesitated to speak, but Cao Yu thought wrongly, thinking that he was discriminating against Chinese people.

After all, this is the normal view of most Americans towards China.

"Cao, I will consider your opinion. It's still more than two years before it's released. Don't be in a hurry. Let's take our time with the soundtrack."

James saw a conflict between his friend and the benefactor, so he quickly became a peacemaker.

At this moment, Liu Yifei, who had been silent all this time, suddenly interjected, "Cao Yu, don't you know how to compose music? Since you have an idea, then make one and try it out."

"Halo, little girl, you hurt me!"

Cao Yu knows how to compose music, but when it comes to composing music for a movie like "Avatar", he still has some self-awareness.

Just when he was about to refuse, Horner chuckled and said, "Then I'm curious, what kind of piece of music can you make that will have the effect you mentioned."

The contempt of the voice is undisguised.

It's no wonder that he is also a well-known composer at the American Music Festival, with the arrogance of an artist.

Cao Yu didn't want to agree at first, but remembering the other party's tone of looking down on China and his arrogant attitude, he thought about it and said, "Okay, I'll give it a try."

"You really want to try?"

James was a little surprised. Even though this Chinese Cao could be a screenwriter, he could not compete with Horna as a composer, so he was busy trying to dissuade him.

"It's okay to try. I just want to make this movie more popular."

Cao Yu glanced at Horner, nodded, and said, "Let's go first."

When Cao Yu took Liu Yifei and the others away, James shook his head helplessly.

But Horner chuckled: "The music made by the Chinese wants to be grand? Want to shock? Want to penetrate people's hearts? This is impossible!"
