On December 17, Su An returned to the capital after a few months.

He originally wanted to go home for a few days, but in the end he gave up, he really hadn't figured out how to face Su Yuanshan.

In addition, although the filming part is over, he still has too many things to be busy with later.

Because he has seen the original fairy sword, during the filming process, he took a lot of unnecessary shots, except for the unreasonable things that occasionally changed the plot, 90% of the original version was followed.

In this way, in terms of editing, there is a lot less natural work, but like dubbing and subtitles, these are also things that he needs to keep an eye on.

Of course, the most important job at the moment is to find a special effects company to produce post-production special effects.

According to common sense, before the filming of a TV series and movie starts, you should find a special effects company and start doing special effects in advance, because in many cases, the production cycle of special effects is longer than the shooting time of the TV series and movie itself.

Take the movie as an example, a movie is shot for more than a year, a few months of preliminary preparation, more than a year for special effects production, plus publicity, etc., which adds up to almost four years.

How many movies can such a director make in his lifetime? This model is definitely not good.

But again, this is the first time that the genre of Xianxia has appeared in this world, and there is no experience that can be used for reference before, so Su An did not dare to hand over the task to the special effects company in advance.

Spending money or a trivial matter, the most afraid is that the special effects will be done, will they be used or not?

Fortunately, in terms of special effects shots, Xianjian is relatively small, and the requirements are not as detailed as in the movie, so after understanding the situation in advance, he came to the conclusion of four months, which is within his acceptable range.

At the same time, it is also the time for the later stage of polishing

You can't just finish a Xianxia drama from preparation to production and release in a few months, right? Is this fooling the audience or fooling yourself?

With his high demands on himself, he would never have done such a thing.

......

The great development of Chinese special effects in this world has to start from the seventies of the last century.

The roots of its development are a special effects crew who came back from Western Hollywood.

His name is Chen Hua.

At that time, he was only in his twenties, but he seemed to be extremely prescient and already saw the future of special effects applications decades later.

And the crew he participated in at that time was the famous "Star Wars" crew.

In a sense, the development of the "Star Wars" series and Industrial Light & Magic is almost equal to the history of the development of special effects in world movies.

This world Star Wars is still brilliant, and even if George Lucas changes the world, he is also a world-class director.

But the difference is that the Huaxia of this world is extremely strong in terms of special effects.

Don't underestimate the small changes in history, the changes that bring about are huge.

Just like the disappearance of the lord of Huanzhu Mansion in this world, it directly led to the fact that the Xianxia system has not been established so far.

This returned Hollywood special effects personnel who did not appear in Su An's previous life directly led to the strategy that the Chinese film industry has always adhered to the development of special effects.

There is no need to say how many hardships Chen Hua went through during this period and how many people he persuaded to finally determine this system, but it is certain that the legend of his experience can already be written into a novel.

Determined the application of special effects in martial arts and mythological films, established a special special effects school, founded the largest special effects company 'Warwick', and then expanded the business to Hollywood...

It can be said that although in terms of movies, the Chinese film industry is in decline and has been defeated by outside movies, but in terms of special effects, it is undoubtedly strong!

That's right!

Huaxia's special effects industry is extremely famous all over the world!

It's not that the level of special effects is the highest in the world, but the best cost performance!

In terms of top-notch special effects, Huaxia is actually a little worse than Hollywood, but it has an absolute advantage in price.

There is no way, the currency ratio on both sides is not the same!

1 U.S. dollar is equal to 8 Chinese dollars.

Except for the small technical gap and equipment consumption, the cost of special effects in Huaxia is only less than one-third of that of Hollywood!

What is this concept?

It's crazy!

If it weren't for the policy control at the national level in the United States, the Hollywood special effects part would almost be covered by China.

Even under ultra-high tariffs, there are still just over two-thirds of them, and more than half of Hollywood's special effects are outsourced to Huaxia, except for those directors who are extremely demanding on special effects.

The impact of this is that although the domestic film industry cannot support the special effects industry, relying on Hollywood's nutrition, the domestic special effects industry is thriving!

I have to say that it is a great irony.

The country naturally saw this situation, but it had no intention of stopping it at all, because it was all real foreign exchange coming in, and it was too late to encourage it!

In this way, a good cycle situation has been formed, and over the past few decades, the number of employees in the special effects industry has already exceeded tens of thousands, and there are nearly 100 specialized special effects companies!

To this day, the special effects major in many schools is popular, because in the eyes of many people, those Europeans and Americans are stupid people with a lot of money, and they throw millions of dollars to make special effects, which is too easy to earn, and they are sorry for themselves if they don't earn it.

This is also one of the benefits of a large number of people, if you change to a small country, you may be worried that there are too many special effects practitioners, and there will be fewer people to engage in scientific research.

Therefore, the policy at the national level, the support for the film industry on one side is better than that on the other side.

It's a pity that the filmmakers are not angry, and they have failed to live up to the good situation created by their special effects peers, otherwise a few people with great ability will also make a series like "Star Wars", and a few will not let the Chinese film circle decline.

Some 'people of insight' in the West naturally didn't want to see the development of Huaxia's special effects industry so well, so they stood up and called on Hollywood directors to invest in people not to outsource tasks to Huaxia's companies, but it was useless.

In the capitalist society, everything looks at money, and when they see that they can reduce costs so much, the eyes of those investors and producers are almost green, and whoever dares to stop them will be torn apart by them.

As for not allowing it on the part of the state?

Oh, it's impossible, the U.S. government also looks at money, and those politicians also look at money, as long as you can know what kind of virtue they are from the things they do in the annual election, and there will even be businessmen as presidents in the future.

So, there is still hope for the current Chinese film circle.

With such a good special effects industry, it is equivalent to having the most powerful backing, just waiting for someone to fire the first shot!

And now, Su An, who has been in this world for half a year, is willing to fire this shot!
