China Entertainment Anchor
Chapter 586 Special Effects Research
"The game company has plenty of money, as long as the scenery is completed on time." Director Kang said nonchalantly.
"One thing should be noted. This company has a bad reputation. It likes to hoard IP to boost its stock price, but there are not many good productions. It's not that I look down on them. They can't handle productions like "The Three-Body Problem"." Zhang Yang couldn't bear it. He stopped talking.
"We must pay attention! The VHQ special effects company they hired this time has produced "Harry Potter" and "Batman". Otherwise, would we have handed over "The Three-Body Problem" to them easily?" Director Kang asked very much. He said proudly.
China Film has obviously spent a lot of effort on "The Three-Body Problem" this time. Whether it's the funds, the production team, or even the selection of actors, they all have a good understanding of it.
"I remember they also produced "Tai Ping Wheel" and "The King's Feast"!" Zhang Yang said in a strange voice.
"That's because the plot of the movie is not good. What does it have to do with the special effects company?"
Zhang Yang couldn't help laughing when he heard what Director Kang said.
"By the way, your next two movies that you invest in will be distributed by China Film Group Corporation. There will be no problem in that, right?" Director Kang started to make demands again.
"Okay, but we need to find an online ticketing company to cooperate with," Zhang Yang explained.
The two movies "Liu Yifei Born in 82" and "Extreme Escape" are both exclusively produced by Zhang Yang Studio.
Although with the names of Zhang Yang and Liu Yifei, there will be no shortage of films lined up, but it is safer to find a good distribution company.
Director Kang secretly thought, what other online ticketing company should I look for? Isn’t it just cooperation with Teng Xun? But he nodded in agreement.
The two chatted for a while, and then Zhang Yang went back.
The movie "Skyscraper Rescue" is actually the same as "The Three-Body Problem", special effects account for a large proportion.
Zhang Yang didn't even ask anyone from the studio this time. When he got home, he contacted Teng Xun Special Effects and asked them to send someone over to take full responsibility for the special effects production of this movie.
Less than an hour after contacting the special effects company, Xiao Ma's phone call came.
Zhang Yang knew what was going on when he saw Brother Ma calling now.
"Director Ma, you don't even take a day off on Sundays! It seems that the rumors that you work until two o'clock every night are true." Zhang Yang joked with a smile.
"You haven't had any rest, Director Zhang. It's time for us to train for this movie!" Xiao Ma said with a smile.
"This movie was prepared for those five companies, but the special effects costs accounted for the majority of the movie production. Wouldn't the money they gave us end up in Teng Xun's pocket?" Zhang Yang said with a smile.
The two of us were training each other, and we were all treated like a family, very cordial.
"By the way, the online ticket sales for my next two movies have been given to Teng Xun, and the offline distribution will be given to China Film. You can communicate with each other. The days ahead will be long." Zhang Yang was offered benefits again, and It's a big pie.
In fact, it's just a matter of a movie. If it weren't for Zhang Yang, Brother Ma would not care at all.
As expected, Brother Xiao Ma didn't care. He chatted with Zhang Yang for a few more words and then hung up the phone.
That night, Zhang Yang watched the seven o'clock news again.
Liu Yifei and Zhang Yang sat on the sofa, watching 315 after the news.
"Why do you suddenly want to watch this party?" Liu Yifei turned to look at Zhang Yang and asked.
"This is the first 315 after the Yangma earthquake. I came to see the quality." Zhang Yang explained.
Zhang Yang looked to see if the person taking over had the courage of his predecessor.
In Zhang Yang's memory, the subsequent 315 seemed to be getting worse and worse.
In addition to the exposure of 4S stores at this year's party, in Zhang Yang's view, the most powerful aspect is the exposure to the communications industry.
And what’s interesting is that the operations in these directions are all aimed at electronic fraud.
The next day Zhang Yang met Teng Xun's special effects people in the studio.
This time it was Eyeboy entertaining them.
Many of the people who came over for Teng Xun's special effects were Yan Yanzai's former colleagues. Now that I see that the boy with eyes is the boss here, I feel sad in my heart.
Zhang Yang invited dozens of people who came over to the reception room in the hall.
Zhang Yang looked at the assistant beside him, who immediately took out his computer and started showing the PPT.
The PPT was produced by the post-production team of Ocean Studio in these ten days according to Zhang Yang's request. It mainly shows the special effects that Zhang Yang wants to achieve.
After Zhang Yang watched the assistant show the PPT, he said to them: "There are more than 2300 visual effects shots this time. The most difficult shots include shattering, flames and large-scale construction shots, which account for more than 1300. It accounts for more than 75% of the special effects budget.
The rest of the leg replacement, the helicopter crash, the visual part of the day and night transition inside the sphere, the bridge in the inner park fire and the suspended shot of the side of the building, etc. are actually pretty simple. "
As soon as Zhang Yang finished speaking, Yan Yanzi was the first to say: "Boss, except for the most difficult part, leave the rest to us!"
Zhang Yang is a little hesitant. Now the post-production period of "Extreme Escape" in the studio is almost over, and the post-production period of "Joker" will definitely be completed before the end of this year.
The special effects of "Skyscraper Rescue" will take at least half a year to complete.
The filming of this movie will not start until around mid-April, and the filming will not be completed until the end of May, or early June.
Is it appropriate to leave it to Ocean Studio? Of course it is definitely cost-effective from an economic point of view. But it’s not worth it to save this little money.
Zhang Yang was still thinking when a standard IT employee from Tengxun Special Effects said: "Boss, you can't just let us chew bones and not eat meat. This is inappropriate!"
"Yes, it's too biased to leave the hardest part to us and leave the rest to others."
Eyesman immediately retorted: "If I give you the most difficult thing, I won't give you a corresponding price. It's fair." "Don't you know how tiring it is to do such difficult special effects? We also want to do something easy. I’ll adjust it through work.”
"That's right, you little boy with eyes can be as happy as you want in the studio. It really doesn't hurt your back to stand and talk."
A group of Teng Xun special effects people even mocked the guy with glasses.
They all know that it was this guy with eyes who suggested outsourcing to Zhang Yang, which cost them a piece of cake for Tengxun's special effects. Because of this proposal, he became the boss of the post-production team of Ocean Studio.
"You are now the people working on Teng Xun's special effects, not Ocean Studio. Don't get confused. Now the boss is your client!" Yan Yanzai chatted with the crowd, not panicking at all.
Don’t forget, this is Ocean Studio, and it’s the same wherever people leave their hometown.
"Isn't the boss also a shareholder of Tengxun?"
"It's just 10%. Ocean Studio is the direct descendant of the boss."
"And 1% of the landlady's possessions were eaten by you?"
Zhang Yang slapped the table "Peng", and the group of people stopped and stopped talking.
"The studio still has work to do. Let's leave all the special effects this time to the Teng Xun special effects people!" Zhang Yang made a decision quickly.
The special effects of "Skyscraper Rescue" cost about 2 million, and the scenery in Huairou cost about 2000 million. The rest is mainly the shooting cost, and the lead actor's remuneration is a trivial matter.
After Zhang Yang finished speaking, he said to Yanyanzi: "You go over and work first!"
Eyesman wanted to get some benefits for the group this time, but he didn't expect to come back empty-handed.
He wasn't actually very depressed, but he still walked out looking dejected.
He wants to make his boss feel guilty about their post-production department. If it doesn't work this time, there will be a next time!
After Zhang Yang waited for the eye boy to leave, he said to the Teng Xun special effects staff: "This time due to well-known reasons, I cannot place the story in the mainland.
And I didn’t want to place the story in the mainland. But it is impossible for me to go to Xiangjiang to shoot, so I have to trouble you in this regard. "
"Boss, don't worry about this. Our working group will send staff to Xiangjiang to take a lot of various photos.
Come back and stitch them together into one giant reflection map. That's it. "The feeling of Teng Xun's special effects is not a problem at all.
"Some shots cannot be realized with textures due to the angle of view. You should pay attention to this." Zhang Yang specifically expressed concern.
"Then we will create most of the streets and buildings in Xiangjiang in 3D, and we can also obtain accurate reflection parallax."
Zhang Yang was relieved when he heard this, but then said: "You have also seen the design of the skyscraper on the PPT. It refers to the architectural style of the master architect Zaha Hadid, and the height is based on the central building that is about to be completed in the Magic City. For reference.”
Zaha Hadid is a devil in the construction industry. She designs weird and eccentric things without considering actual operation issues or personal living experience.
But it has been used as a reference by many directors in movies. This weird and weird thing cannot be easily realized in reality, but it can be easily realized in movies.
By the way, she designed the Jinling Youth Olympic Center in Zhang Yang’s hometown.
A special effects employee then suggested: "For the design of indoor parks, we can refer to many real-life designs, such as some indoor park spaces in Singapore. Their indoor gardens are particularly flavorful."
Zhang Yang nodded, and then everyone discussed for a while.
Zhang Yang finally said: "Then make your own internal arrangements. When the filming starts, you will send a group of employees to the scene to provide relevant guidance. Do you have any questions?"
They all shook their heads and could leave today.
After Zhang Yang waited for them to leave, he told his assistant: "Tell the five companies that each has an investment quota of 3000 million yuan."
The assistant nodded and immediately went to make a call.
After a while, the assistant came over with a strange expression and said, "Boss, they want to meet and talk."
"You want to meet and talk for 3000 million?" Zhang Yang asked in surprise, this is too hopeless!
"I don't think it's about money," the assistant analyzed.
"Could it be me! I'm so charming!" Zhang Yang said playfully.
"Let them come to my studio tomorrow and I will entertain them well."
The assistant nodded and immediately walked out and started contacting people again.
After Zhang Yang finished speaking, he slowly walked home again.
Liu Yifei was at home. Seeing Zhang Yang's walking posture, she couldn't help but ask, "What are you thinking about?"
Zhang Yang said while thinking about things: "I'm going to meet with Fatty Yu and the others tomorrow to talk about something. I'm afraid they'll ask me questions about film actors, so I have to prepare a draft in advance."
"Anyone dares to interfere with your movie?" Liu Yifei thinks it's impossible!
"They are all experienced people, and even now, none of them can tell that I am not interested in this kind of movie!"
They all saw Zhang Yang's previous attitude towards "Extreme Career". The silent contest at the celebration banquet has passed but has not been forgotten.
"So what do you think?"
"I haven't thought about it, but there are only a few tough guys in the country, so there's nothing to think about. But the heroine..."
"For a military doctor, Yu Nan would be a good choice." Liu Yifei suggested to Zhang Yang.
