After a few days, Spielberg inspected most of Hong Kong's small islands and regions, and finally set the filming locations on Lantau Island and Tung Ping Chau, which are currently home to the smallest population and the environment is relatively beautiful.

After determining the filming location, Spielberg also immediately flew back to the United States, where he mobilized and began interviewing actors, recruiting crew members, and shipping more than 60 dinosaur models made by matrix special effects to Hong Kong.

The preliminary estimate is that filming will officially start in October.

On the other hand, after some communication and discussion between Haruta Asai and Toho headquarters in Japan, the people of Toho Co., Ltd. were very interested in the dinosaur theme park project proposed by Huo Yaowen, and sent people over to discuss the specific cooperation plan in detail as soon as possible.

Twenty Fox also has huge expectations for the development of dinosaur-related projects, after all, with Disney, a precedent that makes a fortune on mice, developing a dinosaur-themed theme park is not a lucrative business.

After people from both sides came to Hong Kong, Huo Yaowen also handed over the matter to Davide, and after a series of heated negotiations, the three parties also drew up a preliminary cooperation plan in addition to the most basic interests.

That is, dinosaur theme parks can be opened in Hong Kong first, depending on the business situation, as long as the future profit is good, related theme parks will be built in Japan and the United States.

Secondly, the production of dinosaur peripheral products is preferentially in Japan and the United States, one in Asia and the other in Europe and the United States.

"That's fine, but I think it's worth renegotiating the percentage. ”

Before Davide came to the meeting, the boss had already instructed that the production of dinosaur toys could be handed over to Japan and the United States, after all, these two countries have very rich experience in toy production and channel sales networks, but they should try to get more peripheral shares.

"We've talked about the percentage before. The head of Twentieth Century Fox said with a frown.

Seeing this, the people of the Toho Club hurriedly chimed in: "I also don't think it's necessary to continue talking about this. ”

"No, no, no, we didn't say that we would hand over the production of dinosaur peripherals to Japan and the United States, and if the theme park is successful in Hong Kong, then you can also open it in the future, which is also unfair to us. ”

The three parties come and go, bite and refuse to let go, even if it is 0.01, they have to negotiate again and again.

Don't look at the fact that these are still just empty mansions, but with the example of "1999", the sales of peripheral products of those space battleships have sold tens of millions of dollars worldwide in the past two years, and such a large profit is enough for them to rip off.

It wasn't until the end of September that they finally agreed on a plan that was satisfactory to all parties, and at the same time, Spielberg also brought a camera crew and actors from the United States to Lantau Island to prepare for the filming of "Jurassic Park".

……

"Brother, how's it going?"

Huo Tingting looked at her brother's face expectantly, hoping that he would give her a good suggestion for this short comic.

Huo Yaowen glanced at her, lowered his head and glanced at the original comic manuscript in his hand a few more times.

After thinking about it, he said, "The drawing is good, but the story is still a little lacking. If you have time, you can go to DreamWorks and ask Miyazaki about them, I went to the company the other day, and Miyazaki said that there are such comic books for women in Japan. ”

This cartoon drawn by my sister is similar to a girl's comic, but the story is very similar to Qiong Yao, about the youngest daughter of a big family, who yearns for a free and wonderful love when she sees the unhappy eldest sister who is married, but the reality prompts her to marry someone she doesn't love, but on the day of the wedding, she firms her heart and resolutely runs away from the marriage.

How do you evaluate it?

The skills of painting are still okay.,But maybe it's because of the influence of the previous illustrations of "Kyushu", and the style is not young enough and girly.,It's biased towards that realistic style.。

The ability to tell a story is also a mess.

"Is there already a comic book with this theme in Japan?" Huo Tingting was a little surprised, she didn't expect that Japan already had this kind of comic book specifically for female readers.

"Well, if you want to see it, I'll have someone mail it from Japan. ”

Two days ago, when Huo Yaowen went to DreamWorks to see the progress of the second season of the animation of "Kyushu", he thought of the girl's manga that his sister was drawing, and he also casually asked about the content, and learned from Miyazaki's mouth that Japan has had this kind of comic for female readers for a long time, and there is also a special semi-monthly magazine "Flowers and Dreams".

Huo Tingting nodded: "Okay, I'll see how this kind of comic is drawn in Japan." ”

"Your drawing skills are still okay, but you can draw cutely, for example, the heroine's face is abstract, don't draw so finely, the whole is the same as a sketch. ”

Although Huo Yaowen has watched a lot of girl cartoons like "Variety Sakura" and "Sailor Moon", he has never learned to draw, and he doesn't know how to tell his sister, so he can only try to explain the characteristics of women's comics to her.

"I don't understand what you're saying. Huo Tingting frowned, she really didn't understand what the old brother was talking about.

"If you don't understand it, you can ask Japanese painters like Hayao Miyazaki, although they have never painted this kind of subject, I think they should know something. Huo Yaowen wanted to show off his painting skills, but after thinking about his dog-like style, don't be ashamed.

"Got it. Huo Tingting answered, and at the end, she looked up at her brother, and asked nervously and curiously: "Then can I ...... this comic?"

"You want to publish?"

Huo Yaowen raised his eyebrows and looked at the original manuscripts of more than forty comics in his hand, such a few drawings are not enough to be printed into a booklet.

"Uh-huh. Huo Tingting nodded hurriedly.

Looking at his sister's expectant eyes, he thought for a while and said, "That's it, I'll set up a comic weekly magazine after a while, and I'll serialize your serialization when the time comes, the number of pages you draw is too small, and it's not suitable for publication." ”

"Great! Thank you, brother!" Huo Tingting was immediately excited when she heard that her comics could also be published and published.

"Don't rush to thank you. ”

Huo Yaowen dragged down the excitement to get up and hug his little sister, and said seriously: "Since you want to draw comics, then do it well." Your ability to make up stories is so poor, and there is no need to draw this kind of love comic, I'll write you a text in two days, and then you can draw based on the text. ”

Huo Yaowen hasn't read the girl's comic books, but he has really seen a lot of cartoons.

When I was a child, "Sailor Moon", "Sakura", "Inuyasha", which were often broadcast on TV stations, and "Balala Little Demon Fairy" that I watched with my relatives and children at home, these can be said to be girl-oriented animations.

Eliminate some comics that are not suitable for Huo Tingting, such as "Little Demon Fairy", which are more similar to children.

More appropriately, it should be "Sailor Moon", "Inuyasha" or "Sakura".

The overall story of Inuyasha is very good, he has also seen the finale, and he still remembers a lot of plots, so he can write it out and hand it over to the fine girl to draw. It's just that because of the background, if you want to travel back hundreds of years, Hong Kong is definitely not suitable, and the mainland is afraid of harmony, so it is directly eliminated.

Sailor Moon is too far away, and he basically forgets about the plot and eliminates it.

The most suitable one left should be Sakura.

The story is about Sakura, a student, who accidentally opens the box where the magic tarot cards are stored, causing the tarot cards with magical powers to scatter all over the place, thus embarking on a magical journey to collect tarot cards.

Japan changed to Hong Kong, the magic tarot cards can be replaced with the Book of Mountains and Seas, and the big deal is to draw these monsters a little cute, which can also attract girls.

When Huo Yaowen was still thinking about how to change the plot of Sakura, Huo Tingting, who was beside her, shook her head and said firmly: "No, I just want to draw a love comic." ”

Seeing the little sister's insistence, Huo Yaowen was a little surprised, and a thought inexplicably arose in his heart, could it be that the little sister has never been in love, and often fantasizes about a beautiful love in her mind.

"Then you draw this book. Huo Yaowen handed the sample book of "Antarctic Love" sent by Yao Wenjie in the morning to the younger sister.

Love in Antarctica?

Huo Tingting looked at the title of the book, and found that the author was Fusheng, and couldn't help but say in surprise: "Brother, you are writing a new book again?"

"Well, a book of love, you can take a look. ”

The story of Antarctic Love is still more suitable for adaptation into girl-oriented comics, as long as you substitute the perspective into the identity of the heroine, a member of the Antarctic scientific expedition, when drawing comics.
