The Rebirth of the Male God Starts From Playing Games Chapter 242

  Chapter 242 240. How much does it cost? !

  "Boss, I have lived up to your expectations of me." Ai Xiaomi returned from Bomi Film and Television Media Company and entered the boss's office in Bomi Lair, his entire head twitched.

  Because the ratings of Honor of Kings this time were really not ideal, Ai Xiaomi felt that she wasted the 30 million that Cao Yang gave. The result was such a result, it was really rubbish.

  Now Ai Xiaomi has the heart to die.

   "I'm a trash director, I should take off my clothes and come here to plead guilty."

She glanced at Cao Yang's office, and drew a brush for brushing the goldfish bowl from the bucket next to her, "Boss, otherwise you use this to smoke me, I will definitely not return my mouth. I am not a woman if I hum. ."

   Cao Yang looked at her amusedly, this guy really has something in his mind every day?

   "Huh, the beauty of thinking."

  Do you think it's so easy to get a whip? Is it necessary to be qualified?

  Not everyone can get a whip if they make a mistake.

  For humans, there is a psychological effect called the peace of mind effect.

   is that after giving her proper punishment, her inner guilt will be greatly reduced.

  For example, the final exam is coming next week, so get up and work hard today? Otherwise, my heart feels flustered.

  After working hard for an hour.

  Wow, I have worked hard for an hour today. I have worked hard enough. Let's continue tomorrow.

  Because [I have worked hard], I found an excuse for myself to step down, so I would not feel so guilty.

  Now Ai Xiaomi is like this. Although I smashed the TV, the boss should beat me up, so I feel less guilty.

   Cao Yang complained in his heart, wanting to be beautiful.

  Not only do I not beat you, I also praise you and let you continue to work hard for the next movie.

  "Oh...this time it's not all your responsibility. The main reason is that I don't have enough judgment in the general direction," Cao Yang said modestly, "Otherwise, it won't be so outrageous.

  The actors are all very well selected. Look, although the ratings are not very good this time, isn't the actor Akko still sought after by the players?

  And your shooting method is very powerful, the inside lens is dazzling, the sense of the lens is very in place, and the special effects production is also quite high-end.

  Have you not seen what the online audience said?

  Although this TV series is not very good, at least the special effects and casting are in place, and it can reach full marks.

  Look at you, Ai Xiaomi, how amazing you are! "

  Love Xiaomi, the whole person was frightened, and she shrank her neck like a timid kitten. I don't know why, she always felt that the boss was telling the truth.

  "Boss, don't do this, you are so scared of me." Ai Xiaomi said in a trembling voice.

   "Where is it?" Cao Yang gave her a sideways glance, "Is everything I said really good?"

  Yes, it sounds strange.

  Obviously, the TV series rushed to death on the street, but inexplicably caught the heroine, which Cao Yang did not expect.

   But thinking about it carefully, it seems to be very reasonable——

  Ake, who is the glory of the king, is a popular hero. Whether it is dressing up to the character setting, he is a character who can please the players.

  A powerful female assassin who cares about the male protagonist very much, and swears to help him fulfill his wish and obtains the Holy Grail. She looks beautiful. Who doesn't like a girl like this.

Moreover, Liu Yifei now happens to be at her best age. Although she still has some sense of immaturity in the performance, her own temperament fits the role of A Ke, so the show is not popular, and it has become unexpected. , A matter of reason.

  Cao Yang is pondering now, not knowing whether this result is good or bad.

  Only one thing Boss Cao knows——

  After this time of the Glory of the Kings TV series, Liu Yifei's worth has to go up a bit, and it will be more expensive to use her in the future.

  Hearing what the boss said, Ai Xiaomi felt like a heartache, "Boss, don't you say that, why do you make me feel so embarrassed? You are piercing my heart with a knife.

  The boss's decision-making has always been wise, and he has never made a mistake. It is because I have not kept your 100% success rate. I am a sinner of history. "

  Cao Yang smiled, his eyes were watching her acting in front of him.

   Ai Xiaomi, Ai Xiaomi, your acting skills are really getting worse and worse.

   "If you have two more tears on your face, maybe I really believe it." Cao Yang smiled helplessly, "Forget it, don't pretend it here."

   "Huh?" Ai Xiaomi squashed her mouth pitifully, "Boss, I'm sincere..."

   "Okay, with this kung fu confession, it is better to think about how to make the next movie." Cao Yang said.

   "Huh...huh?" Ai Xiaomi raised her head in surprise, her eyes gleaming, "What did you say, boss? The next movie? Can I have the next movie?

What? ! movie? !

  Mom! ! !

   is not a TV series, but a movie? "

   Ai Xiaomi feels flattered.

  I thought the results were so bad this time, the boss must have no hope for this film and television company, at least he has no hope for Ai Xiaomi, I am afraid that the person in charge of the film and television company will have to be replaced.

  Unexpectedly, the boss was so tolerant in the end, not only did not hold her accountable, but also let her continue to make movies.

movie? !

  Gosh, that's a movie.

  Nortel's students all know that movies are what makes money, and the requirements for actors and directors are much higher than TV shows.

  Movies are the ultimate pursuit of Nortel people. The best thing is to get an award or something through the movie. There will be no regrets in this life.

  I don't know why, there is such a chain of contempt in the film and television circle. Filmmakers don't like TV dramas, TV dramas don't like small movies, and small movies don't like...

   "Yes," Cao Yang looked at her coldly, "Can't you find a way to earn back the money you lost? Make a movie and return it to me, otherwise, why do I want you to be the general manager of this film and television company?"

   "I... how easy it is..." Ai Xiaomi wanted to say that I could, but this time the TV series' ratings were not so good that her self-confidence was greatly affected.

  So her tone quickly fell.

  Up to now, Ai Xiaomi has a little doubt whether she is suitable for the film and television industry.

  Maybe it's better for her to go back and continue playing games?

  Who knows?

  At least, Ai Xiaomi has not failed to make a game, but it was so miserable the first time in a TV series.

  Not to mention making a movie, that is something Ai Xiaomi can't even think of.

  But, now Cao Yang needs Ai Xiaomi to do it. Not only must he dare to think, he also has to make it.

  I didn't take the time to care about this guy before. It was a bit of negligence, but this time, after Cao Yang re-summed the failure experience and lessons, he is still very confident that Bomi can make a good movie.

  "If you do it well this time, I believe you can succeed, and if you do it the way I said, the probability will be greater." Cao Yang said.

  "Which way?" Ai Xiaomi asked him suspiciously.

  Cao Yang smiled slightly, "We are making a 3D science fiction movie."

   "Huh?!" Ai Xiaomi was shocked.

  "Boss, are you kidding? Can we do it at our level?"

   "Of course you can." Cao Yang said, "I have watched this time the Glory of Kings TV series. At least we are still doing a good job in special effects. You have to believe in yourself."

  3D movies started very early. In 1839, British scientist Charlie Whiston had already discovered the principle of 3D imaging——

  Because the imaging of the two eyes of a person is different, the effect after the brain processing is actually a superposition of the imaging of the two eyes.

  This is the principle of 3D glasses.

  The earliest 3D glasses are red and blue stereo glasses, that is, one glasses is red and the other is blue.

  Red and blue stereo is the earliest and most traditional 3D movie technology, which was born in the 1960s. This technology, in simple terms, is to use two cameras to shoot, and then use two projectors to project, project red and blue images from different positions onto the screen to form an overlap, and then watch through red and blue glasses to produce "parallax" ", so that the audience will have a three-dimensional effect.

  In our country, films made with this technology have appeared in the 1960s.

  In 1962, "A Magician's Adventure" filmed by Tianma Film Studio, directed by Sang Hu and starring Chen Qiang, was regarded as the first 3D stereoscopic movie in China. The application of 3D movie technology to the shooting of martial arts films was pioneered by filmmakers on the island of China.

  At the end of the 1970s, due to plagiarism in Kung Fu movies, there were signs of decline. In order to retain a dwindling audience, China's Baodao Fuhua Film Co., Ltd. tried to use red and blue technology to shoot 3D martial arts films, and successively released 3D 3D kung fu films "Chasing a Thousand Knives" and "Thirteen Nuns" directed by director Zhang Meijun.

  Although the audience will feel uncomfortable, the effect is novel and exciting, and it is still quite attractive. It was also proved afterwards that 3D stereo technology is indeed suitable for making kung fu movies, because of the high frequency of movements and weapons. The stereo effects of "sword pointing to the audience" and "thousand arrows piercing the heart" make the audience outside the screen avoid the dazzling, which is extremely shocking. .

After the success of   3D martial arts films in China's Treasure Island, they were also screened in Japan and Hong Kong. They made a sensation. They also participated in the market exhibition outside the Cannes Film Festival in France and won five honors including the Golden Arrow Award at the Film Festival. Unfortunately, during an inspection of the location, the producers of the two films were killed by helicopter propellers.

  After 2000, three-dimensional movies slowly approached the digital age. The traditional false three-dimensional effect of chromatic aberration to deceive the audience's brain was replaced by new technology that uses the sense of picture speed to create a three-dimensional effect. Digital stereoscopic movie images are more stable, overcome the dizziness, fatigue and other drawbacks of watching traditional stereoscopic movie films, and can give the audience a special viewing experience and visual enjoyment.

  The "Chicken Story" produced by Pixar, which was just released last year, uses a new projection technology to show it, eliminating the visual fatigue that was easy to produce when watching 3D in the past.

  Now with the release of "Chicken Story", most of the domestic 3D cinemas have updated their equipment.

  Now domestic cinemas are ready to welcome the arrival of foreign 3D blockbusters. Starting in 2007, 3D blockbusters will gradually occupy the film market:

  For example, the variant King Kong series that started in 2007, Iron Man in 2008, Avatar in 2009...

  Foreign countries have entered the Chinese market at the rate of producing a 3D blockbuster almost every year. At that time, audiences will see a very obvious gap between domestic and foreign.

  Our country started very early in 3D movies, and now Bomi is very advanced in computer rendering technology. This time, the special effects part of the glory of the king can prove this.

  Although the 3D shooting will definitely add a lot of equipment and technology, but these are not difficult.

  Facts have proved that if we did not spend money on meaningless actors' pay, traffic, and advertising, we would be able to make a blockbuster like The Wandering Earth.

Moreover, the total cost of wandering the earth is only 340 million. According to the original screenwriter Gong Geer, Hollywood special effects companies were considered at the time, but after calculating, if they were to do it, the final production cost might be 300 million US dollars. In the end, the film was produced by a domestic special effects company, and the cost was controlled at around US$50 million.

  It's 2005, and the cost is definitely much lower than this.

  If Bomi can't figure it out by himself, Cao Yang can also consider outsourcing some special effects to Pixar in the United States.

   "Okay, the boss says it's okay." Ai Xiaomi clenched her fists and cheered herself up.

  Anyway, it's the boss who paid for the money, or Bomi who paid for it, she is a minority shareholder, and there is nothing to be distressed about if she loses.

  As long as the boss doesn't feel bad.

   "But making a 3D science fiction movie seems to be very expensive. What should we do this time?"

   When it comes to the word science fiction, Ai Xiaomi has no idea at all in his brain.

  It does not mean lack of ability, but for a while, there is no way to generate enough associations in the brain, and I don't know what to adapt.

  You can't create one by yourself, right?

  This difficulty is a bit high.

  Cao Yang smiled, "I have thought about the script for you."

  He picked up a magazine from the side table and threw it to Ai Xiaomi.

   Ai Xiaomi hurriedly hugged it.

   "Huh? Science fiction world?"

  She picked it up and glanced at it. It was the seventh edition of the magazine "World of Science Fiction" in 2000.

   "It's an old book, it's now in 2005."

   Ai Xiaomi looked at the contents inside.

   "So which one are we going to shoot?"

  "Have you seen that? The novella "The Wandering Earth" by Liu Cixin"

   Ai Xiaomi went through the catalog for a while and finally found it.

  The length of this novel is very short, with only less than 50,000 words, and it will be gone after two double clicks. There is not a starting point in the future. The author dreams of updating more than 30,000 a day.

  So Ai Xiaomi watched very quickly.

  It took about twenty minutes, Ai Xiaomi raised her head questioningly, "Huh? We are going to take this?!"

  Mom! ! !

  Send the entire earth directly into space? !

  Is this something that people can take?

   "Of course it's not just that," Cao Yang curled his lips. "Just like this, where is enough for shooting, at least I have to expand it?"

Yes.

  Cao Yang has already thought about it.

  Since we have the technology and some people, why not put 3D movies on the agenda earlier?

  The most important thing is that Bomi is rich now.

After   Fantasy Westward Journey was launched, up to now, it has accumulated more than one million users, and the average number of online users has exceeded 200,000.

  Bomi's gaming industry alone can bring nearly 5 billion in revenue to the company every year, not to mention the revenue from QQ, music and platforms.

  In a few years, Bomi will grow into a behemoth.

  So, Cao Yang is not short of money.

  In other words, not so short of money.

  Mainly the mobile phone business is still very expensive, and it is still a bottomless pit so far.

  It can be said that one billion 800 million will be saved to shoot a large-scale domestic 3D science fiction movie for Ai Xiaomi, which Cao Yang can still do.

   "Moreover," Cao Yang said with a smile, "this time, in order to control the quality, I will make the script and the art concept drawing. You are responsible for the part of the shooting and shooting."

   "Oh, okay, okay." Ai Xiaomi's hesitation from the very beginning turned into self-confidence now. A smile bloomed on her face and she felt like the sun was shining.

  Ai Xiaomi still believes in the boss's skills.

   Especially for painting, Boss Cao is absolutely amazing.

  As soon as the original painting collection of the Scriptures of Mountains and Seas came out, how many people wanted to shout for criticism.

  This time, Ai Xiaomi still believes that Cao Yang can do it. The design concept drawing of The Wandering Earth must be very impressive.

   "Thank you boss, we will definitely succeed this time!" Ai Xiaomi said with her fist clenched.

   "That's for sure."

  The corner of Cao Yang's mouth rose slightly.

  The Wandering Earth is a milestone in the history of domestic 3D science fiction movies. It directly kicked the door of the 3D world and let the whole world see that we can also do 3D science fiction blockbusters.

  "The top priority is that you have to ask Liu to buy the copyright."

  In the afternoon, Cao Yang found Liu Zhiping and explained the situation. Liu Zhiping agreed and promised to buy the copyright of Liu Zhiping.

   "That's right." Cao Yang suddenly remembered something.

   "Huh?" Liu Zhiping raised his head.

   "When you remember to buy copyright, don't lower the price too much. I suggest to give Liu some box office share. So that the writer can get a higher salary, at least not lower than the actor's salary."

  Many of Liu's books were sold to film and television companies at the price of cabbage. It is said that he only sold the copyright of Wandering Earth for 5,000 yuan.

  For those who wrote books at that time, it was considered quite a lot, but the contribution and influence of intellectual property on the future is far more than that.

  So Cao Yang hopes that, starting from him, at least Bomi can respect the talents who provide script ideas, first of all, material respect. Without them, the domestic film industry would not have made great progress.

  The world where traffic niches dominate is certainly not as good as the world where screenwriters dominate.

  At least Cao Yang thinks so.

  Don't be greedy for short-term benefits, but take a longer view.

  With a screenwriter, there will be good works, and with good works, there will be a large number of audiences...

   Then there will be a good movie platform...

  This is a virtuous circle.
