Chapter 8 Another Layer of Shackles (5/10 Subscription Requested)
The special effects of Chinese films have grown and developed piecemeal, and the technology in many aspects has long reached the level of not losing to the foreign front-line, and there are many good teams that have been doing subcontracting and OEM work for Hollywood, which is not systematic and cannot form a complete industrial system;
Of course, the most important thing is that early domestic films did not pay attention to movie special effects, and they were not willing to spend money on special effects, and many directors took the audience as fools, deceived the audience with the so-called special effects that did not enter the stream, and smashed the signboard to pieces, leaving many audiences with the stereotype that domestic film special effects are not good.
In the past, when many movies were promoted, they would rather say that the Hong Kong special effects team was unwilling to report the name of the domestic team, and under such a harsh environment, it was difficult for the domestic special effects team to form a brand...
Therefore, for the small wrecking ball project, many domestic special effects companies only charge the cost price - they can see that this drama is very good, and they expect it to become famous!
And it did start.
Orange VFX;
ink image production;
The two teams immediately became the benchmark for special effects companies in the mainland, and the project of "The Martian" was mainly handed over to the two of them, this time at the market price - they had to make money!
……
In market competition, if the Chinese labor fee is cheaper, then the overall price will be much cheaper...
If you're not happy, you can also reduce the price!
"I don't think so, we will cooperate with Universal!"
Kominsky: "Let me tell you, in the eyes of Westerners, China is..."
After thinking about it, Kominsky simply said bluntly: "I earn the money of the Chinese, if I don't say something, it seems that I have succumbed to these yellow skins, I will touch the white class, I can't afford to lose this person..."
"Huh?"
"Therefore, Marvel knows that the Chinese don't like "Shangqi", and will still shoot it!"
“… After they make money from the Chinese, they will always find various ways to make their position clear: Yes, I need your money, but you are still dog mongrels understand?"
Shen Ming was very angry, yes, he knew that foreigners looked down on China and looked down on Chinese...
But is it interesting that you are saying so bluntly?
Now it is the dominant race in the world, their primitive accumulation is bloody and sinful, and they believe that there can be no peaceful and win-win existence...
Ahem...
Shen Ming asked directly: "I understand everything you say, but what does this have to do with them targeting me?"
"Of course it does!"
Kominsky sighed: "China's film market and entertainment market will definitely be the first in the world in the future, and Hollywood has the most advanced film industry in mankind and has the most funds, technology and talents, how can it be willing to share the cake!"
"You make local comedies, make feature films that reflect social reality, they don't care, because they know that these two categories can't support the film industry system at all!"
"It's different now, you guys are doing industrial production, and you guys are making up "The Wandering Earth"..."
"You even have to open a painting in North America and compete with them, do you think they will let it go so easily?"
"A patriotic film with a theme that is too straightforward like "Wolf Warrior 2" is difficult to empathize with people in other countries around the world, and it is not an international mainstream culture at all, but "The Wandering Earth" is different!"
"Let's put it this way, "The Wandering Earth" is a bit like "Star Wars" for Chinese science fiction back then, although the Chinese film industry, which marks rapid progress, is still some distance from Hollywood, the artistic conception is not beyond reach..."
Shen Ming felt that his brain was a little messy...
Only then did he realize that the little wrecking ball and what he had done himself - blocking people's money is like destroying people's doors!
After a long silence, he asked, "So what?"
"So, you have to get ready!"
“… No, how do I prepare? This thing has nothing to do with me, I'm just a pure filmmaker, and the reputation of "The Wandering Earth" has already spread, and now I'm trying to discredit it? Isn't this sick?"
"You underestimate the comprador capital of your country too much!"
"Is it that scary?"
“… Hehe, as far as I know, their first step is to destroy your character, and then destroy Liu Cixin's IP!"
", does it have a half-dime relationship with Da Liu?"
"Sci-fi IP..."
Kominsky suddenly sighed: "The United States, translated into English, is A-Beautiful-Country, beautiful country, how did it become what it is now?"
Shen Ming was silent for a moment: "Then what should I do?"
"Keep being yourself and don't make mistakes!"
“… I haven't made a mistake in a long time!"
"It's not enough," Kominsky said in a serious tone: "You shouldn't have another scandal with that Lin Yun'er!"
“… We just met as old friends, and I didn't do anything!"
"You can guarantee that you didn't think anything of it?"
How could I not have thought that Ming Tsai was originally the kind of person who loves the world, not only Lin Yun'er, but also nine people in the young woman's era, he has quite ideas!
Including young woman Yang, young woman Zhao, young woman Tong...
But it's just a thought...
Shen Ming was embarrassed for a moment, and then retorted: "You're a bit too much, I don't do it, and I'm not allowed to think about it?" Didn't you say it, human nature has a dark side!"
"Yes, human nature has a dark side, but you are now a national idol!"
“… Idol... What's wrong with idols?Aren't idols human?" Shen Ming was very unhappy: "Don't worry, I just want to, I will not do it!"
Kominsky seemed uneasy: "Can you guarantee it?"
"Of course, the first day you met me, I said that my motto was Kant!"
“… Which sentence?"
"That is, law and morality are inviolable..."
"It should be: in this world, there are two things that we should look up to for life: one is the bright starry sky above our heads, and the other is the noble moral law in people's hearts. ”
"Poor... Almost, anyway, one thing!"
Ming Tsai really thinks he is good, as the top batch, he doesn't mess with the relationship between men and women, he has a good temper and is not violent, he doesn't smoke, he doesn't drink alcohol - this crosses out, he drinks a little once in a while, and he never participates in illegal acts...
Such a man is a good man even if he is outside the circle!
'A good man is me, I am Shen Xiaoming!'
Kominsky was silent for a while: "I may have to leave for a while, and this time it will be a long time!"
“… What are you doing every time you leave?"
Shen Ming is really curious!
"For the first two years, I spent the first two years in the library flipping through folklore books to see if there was a way to bring me back to life..."
"Is there one?"
“… What do you say?"
Then no!
"And what about this time?"
"I should be looking for a place to sleep, and I don't know if I can wake up again..."
“…”
Shen Ming was silent, he didn't know what to say...
"Don't worry, I'll find you when I wake up again!"
"Hmm..."
"Before leaving, for the sake of your reputation, I will put another shackle on you!"
"Shackles, what shackles?"
Then Shen Ming felt a little pain in his chest, and quickly opened his clothes, and there was an extra black mole...
"This is called the obsession knot..."
