Big names rise

Pure newcomer Li Meng had such a chance to act for the first time, and there was no profit transaction, no unspoken rules, it was really not easy, and she was really lucky. Compared with her, another newcomer actor Zhao Yihuan was much less lucky. She is Tao Quduo, a current student at the Xie Jin Academy of Art at Shanghai Normal University, is also out of greed for cheap. The role she played can be said to be the most irrelevant of the six girls. Apart from the need to show off her sex appeal, she died miserably in the end. Requirements, maybe the role is more important than Anya (Wang Ziwen), but there is no other possibility for the second part. Lao Tao thinks that anyone can act, so he selected from the nearest Xie Jin Academy of Arts audition to be more photogenic, with a hot body Zhao Yihuan.

The crew of "Girls in Art School" has only opened for a few days. Today, Chen Siyu (Li Meng) was frightened by some terrible things, and all her roommates surrounded her. At the time, it seemed to be a bloody arm.

This is where Tao Quduo's brilliance can be seen. Originally, an arm bone would have sufficed for this place, but he made the hand bone stick with some flesh and blood, which made the sense of horror much stronger.

The actor's salary is not too much, and Tao Quduo mainly spends the money on those places that enhance the quality of the film. The special props artist is also invited from Hong Kong, and the guy who made it is very realistic. The blood on the stump seems to be As if dripping, He Mu played with it, scaring Xiao Nan behind him enough, and it was difficult for Li Meng to operate this terrifying thing.

In addition to the excellent and realistic props, this ultra-low-cost movie also needs to use some computer special effects. Sometimes the main function of movie special effects instead of real scenes is to reduce production costs.In Hollywood, big productions that really burn money must have real scenes of big scenes. The royal city in "Lord of the Rings" was built one-to-one.It is definitely more expensive than cg technology, but it is better than reality.

Because there are not too many special effects to be used, and in line with the principle of reducing costs, Shuimu Forest hired Xuantian Special Effects Studio located in Shenzhen. One of the owners of this studio is He Mu’s first assistant Mi Min's boyfriend.Because of He Mu's relationship, Hulang turned to this company for many places that needed special effects, while Mizuki had too few works.There was no formal cooperation before, but Xuantian made the title of Shuimu Forest, and he was very satisfied.This is their first official collaboration.

It can be said that for a small and medium-sized special effects company that is not so outstanding in technology, and is formed by Chinese technicians, it is very fortunate for Xuantian Studio to have such a long-term and fixed partner as Hulang. thing.It is even an important reason to ensure that this studio will survive.And all this is because of this opportunity of He Mu, in order to show importance, and to better show the director's ideas, not only Mi Min, who is in charge of contacting business, but also Mi Min's boyfriend who is the director, came to discuss cooperation this time Ye Xuan, the head of the studio, will also come together, and tonight, He Mutao Quduo will welcome them.

After getting to know a few girls, Tao Quduo announced that he would shoot here today.Everyone has worked hard, go back and rest.

Lin Yuan was familiar with He Mu.Jokingly said, "The big boss came to visit the class to express condolences, and he didn't invite us to have a good meal. You don't know how bad the box lunch we usually eat is. Tao Dao is the most pessimistic and won't let us eat a good meal." I'm afraid here Only Lin Yuan, who already knew Tao Quduo, dared to accuse him like this. As long as she was obedient when filming, Director Tao would not say anything.

He Mu smiled, "I will definitely ask him to improve the food in the future, but Director Tao and I have an appointment to discuss business tonight, so it won't be good for me to take you with me." People thought that they brought the actresses of the crew to accompany the dinner and drinks, and it was not nice to say it.

"We are not afraid."

"Yes, we also want to see each other."

"We believe Brother Mu won't buy us."

Some of the six girls were silent, while others were chattering. They didn't care about He Mu's worries at all. It seemed that they must wait for He Mu's meal. Dun couldn't justify it, anyway, he didn't want to rush back immediately, and time was not very tight for him.

He Mu and Tao Qu exchanged a few more glances, Tao Dao smiled and said, "Okay, then come together, to save you from always calling me stingy, I invited you for today's meal, Mr. He is a guest, you guys They are all little ancestors, there are two guests tonight, plus our own people, a dozen people are enough to be lively."

It was really lively enough, six girls wanted to invite, Zhang Yueyue and Chang Dabao were also invited, and Xiao Nan, Wu Fa and Wu Tian beside He Mu definitely couldn't let them just watch, and finally got a big box and used it An oversized table can only accommodate these people. Looking at the huge table, Tao Quduo's heart is bleeding. Just now, he really shouldn't pretend to be a treat, and He Mu is a famous foodie, so he must have picked the best ones. Expensive, how much does it cost, alas!

The scenery in Hangzhou is beautiful, and the food is also very distinctive, but this time He Mu didn't focus on eating completely. Today is the first time He Mu met Ye Xuan, who had been in love with him for a long time. He only heard Mi Min mention it before. Xuan ran to the south because of a setback in his career in the capital. Later, he established the Xuantian Computer Special Effects Studio headed by him with a few like-minded friends. The special effects needs of movies.

The special effects of domestic movies have always been sprayed very badly, because there are Hollywood blockbusters stamped there as a benchmark. After watching them and then watching our own movies, there will definitely be false heinous feelings. We are actually aware of this problem. , so in recent years, a lot of related majors have been set up in universities, and many companies specializing in computer special effects for movies have sprung up like mushrooms, including new private Chinese companies such as Perfect Power, Mars Age, China Film Hualong, and Xuantian Studio. The company also has Chinese special effects companies with foreign backgrounds such as Strong Oxygen, Cinda Far East, and base fx. In addition, China Film Digital Base has also entered this field, plus Crystal Stone and Shanghai Film Special Effects Center, which have been engaged in computers since the 90s of the last century. Veteran special effects R & D and production companies, Wankuan, Xiantao and other leading Hong Kong special effects companies in Asia, these or unknown special effects companies constitute the special effects pattern of the Chinese film industry today.

Now China's special effects industry is in a stage of rapid development and integration. We have introduced many conventional technologies that Hollywood is using, and we can do them, but we have not yet developed top-level technologies like "Avatar".

If financial resources are really not considered, we may not be able to produce high-quality visual effects like Hollywood blockbusters only by relying on our own special effects team, but this requires a huge financial investment, but limited by the market capacity, it is impossible to achieve such a high box office. Under such circumstances, the production cost of a film must be limited within a safe range, so the investment in special effects becomes very limited.For computer special effects, if you have more money, you have more money, if you have less money, you have less money. If you reduce the effect by a few points, you can get the investor’s profit. I believe no one will be unwilling to do it. It is precisely because of this psychology, Therefore, the special effects of our movies are always not up to a very high level, and even South Korea's "Han River Monster"-level special effects blockbuster has never been born.

The level of special effects is low, technology is only one aspect, and capital and market are more important aspects, so there is really no need to criticize Chinese special effects workers blindly. He Mu believes that these people can persist in such a depressed market. It is worthy of respect. The future of Chinese film needs them. If they do not have a sincere heart for Chinese film, it is impossible for them to persevere. This is a group of people with faith, and they can develop well. This shows that They not only have persistence but also excellent technology, which is not only respect, but also admiration.

Ye Xuan is an ordinary-looking young man in his thirties, with a crew cut, a beard, and neatly dressed. It can be seen that he dressed up specially to meet He Mu. It may be Mi Min's handwriting, and he himself may not be very familiar with it. He likes this kind of overly formal attire. He should be a carefree person. From his eyes and demeanor, it can be seen that He Mu has always been a good judge of people.

Sure enough, Ye Xuan was really informal. He poured himself a glass as soon as he got the wine, and then raised his glass to He Mu, "Mr. He, I will serve this glass first as a respect, you can do whatever you want."

Now that the food has not been served yet, Ye Xuan drank the wine in a hurry, the little girls looked at Ye Xuan and didn't know what He Mu's business partner meant.

He Mu didn't know either, he stopped Ye Xuan, "This toast must have a name, to be clear, I'll do it with you, I'm never casual."

He Mu noticed that Mi Min's face was a bit unnatural, and thinking about it now, it seemed that they had had an argument when they were just received. He Mu thought it was just a quarrel between the young couple, and it was not a big deal, so he didn't bother, after all, it was someone else. My own affairs, now it seems that it is not so simple.

Maybe I didn't explain it first, but I drank the wine first, and then poured another glass, "The name is that I might feel sorry for Mr. He. Our company can't do the special effects of "Girls in Art School". I came here specifically to apologize, I will punish myself three cups first, I am very sorry, I will compensate all the losses caused by breaking the contract."

Mi Min tugged at the corner of Ye Xuan's clothes, but still didn't stop him from drinking down the second glass of wine.

Ye Xuan's words made the atmosphere in the venue suddenly condense, and the joyful laughter of the little girls stopped abruptly, and they all became cautious, and even regretted that they shouldn't come here, as if something bad would happen things happen.

Tao Quduo, who feels the difference the most, has also learned about Xuantian Studio before. This company still has a certain strength, and the cooperation with Tiger Wolf was very good before, but what does Ye Xuan mean to him today? ?
