Chapter 67: 3D Movies
Time enters May, compared with the more dull film market in April, the film market in May ushered in a Hollywood hit movie "Harry Potter".
"Harry Potter" also has a name, which is the world's first 3D movie. With this title, there has been a movie-watching frenzy all over the world, and since its release on May 1, the global box office has accumulated to 260 million US dollars in just three days.
The hot release of "Harry Potter" also drove the entire market up, and the global film market from April to May presented a situation in which Hollywood movies sang and we appeared.
Compared with the full flowering of Hollywood movies, there is still no Chinese movie in May that can afford to carry the handle, and the attendance rate of many movies is not very high, compared with Hollywood movies, Chinese movies are slightly lonely.
There is also a Hollywood blockbuster "Star Wars 3" will be released globally on May 7, although the film has not yet been released, but the pre-sale box office in the mainland alone has reached 190 million RMBB. Professional institutions predict that the box office of this film is expected to be around 17 to 2.2 billion US dollars, which is another money-absorbing weapon.
Many filmmakers have also seen that these two blockbusters have one thing in common, that is, 3D! Many filmmakers are no strangers to 3D technology, because many companies are researching 3D technology.
But for 3D movies is the first time I have seen it, in the face of 3D movies as a money-absorbing weapon, 3D technology has suddenly become the focus of the film industry.
However, there is currently a complete and mature 3D technology company, and there is only one company in the world.
And this company is actually a Huaxia company that they are very familiar with, Longteng Special Effects Technology Co., Ltd., Longteng Special Effects Since the beginning of the year announced the development of 3D film technology, many Hollywood film companies have already smelled business opportunities, so they have already signed a contract with Longteng Special Effects for 3D film production.
Hollywood film companies have long known that 3D movies are the general trend of development in the future, so there are also many companies that develop 3D film technology, but what they didn't expect was that it was actually developed by a Huaxia company that was established less than a few years ago.
So as soon as the dragon special effects were announced, these Hollywood studios sent people to discuss cooperation. And Chinese filmmakers have not yet realized the huge profits of 3D movies, and they have not yet seen the power of 3D movies.
So when I found out the benefits of 3D movies, when I saw that it was 3D technology that made these movies have such a terrifying ability to make money, many film companies also put aside the concerns of high costs, and many 3D movies sprung up for a while.
And Longteng Special Effects instantly became a star company in the Chinese film industry, but when they came to the door to ask for cooperation, they were told that the task was full, and the order was scheduled until the end of next year, so there was no time to take new orders to produce.
When I learned that there is currently the top 3D technology company, and the task of Longteng special effects has been full, many companies are disappointed, and it is not easy to make money, which is why Hollywood movies are better than domestic movies.
However, when everyone was disappointed, on May 15, the official website of Dragon Special Effects released an announcement that made all filmmakers happy.
'After the company's research, it was decided that in order to promote the development of the Chinese film industry and promote the prosperity of the Chinese film market, in the face of a large demand for 3D technology, it was decided to sell the 3D film technology patents to ten companies, so as to promote the development of the 3D film industry in China..."
After countless netizens saw it, they also praised Chen Yongren one after another, and there was 3D film technology after the 'New Star Guide Project'. can't help but sigh that Chen Yongren is really the chosen son sent by God to save Huaxia Films.
Not long after the announcement was issued, Beijing Film and Television also issued an announcement, announcing that it had obtained the technical authorization of Longteng special effects, and the company had researched and had mature film 3D technology, which could be used for 3D production, and then nine companies issued similar announcements.
As soon as the news came out, countless film companies were excited, and immediately sent people to these companies to discuss cooperation. These companies with 3D film technology soon became the bread and butter of global film companies, vying for support for 3D technology.
All of a sudden, 3D movies are like no money, and in the next two years, there will be plans for nearly 100 3D movies. These companies are all stimulated by the current box office of "Harry Potter", and they all want to carve up the 3D film market, a big cake with countless potentials.
Film companies around the world are imagining the future of 3D films, and they are all busy around 3D films, but none of this is Chen Yongren's business, and he has already taken a car to a tea house on the outskirts of Beijing.
"Has Uncle Ming arrived?" asked Chen Yongren, who was sitting in the car.
Huang Huishan replied with a smile: "When Mr. Chen Daoming received the call, he had already gone first, and it should have arrived now." ”
In fact, it is still risky to find Chen Daoming to play the role of Iron Man, and the wonderful performance of Robert Downey Jr. in his previous life left too much impression in Chen Yongren's mind, so I don't know if the effect is so good if it is changed to a Chinese actor to star.
However, since you want to recruit a Chinese version of the 'Marvel Universe', the actors and story background must be placed in Huaxia, so from the script to the actors, Chen Yongren has spent a lot of effort to revise and select.
The reason why Chen Daoming was chosen was because he had worked together once, and there was no doubt about Chen Daoming's acting skills, and he also felt that this role was quite suitable for him, so he finally decided to play this classic role.
However, although there was a brief audition before, the key to the success of this role depends on Chen Daoming's understanding of the script and the role, so I asked him out today to find out how Chen Daoming figured out the role.
If you don't advance in the entertainment industry, you will retreat, although you have made good achievements for a while, but keeping your achievements is equivalent to regression, so Chen Daoming has a lot of scripts looking for them after "Interstellar", but he has been very careful in his selection, until Chen Yongren came to the door, and he took it without saying a word.
Because Chen Yongren is now synonymous with high-quality films, as long as it is his movie, others can't ask for it, so for Chen Daoming, even if he has made good achievements, he is still irresistible in the face of Chen Yongren's movies.
During the period of studying the script and role, I felt more and more that this movie was another hit, and the role of Iron Man would definitely be a celebrity in Chinese film history, so when I received Chen Yongren's movie, I immediately rushed over.
When he saw Chen Yongren walking into the box, Chen Daoming also got up quickly, walked over and greeted Chen Yongren with a smile, and then shook hands warmly.
"Uncle Ming, I've been waiting for a long time. Chen Yongren said with a smile.
"I've just arrived, so I'll sit down first, and I'll taste the first-class West Lake Longjing. Chen Daoming replied with a smile, and then helped Chen Yongren pour tea.
"This tea is good, how about Uncle Ming, the script and the character are okay now, right?" Chen Yongren asked after taking a sip of tea.
"No problem, it's ready, just waiting for you to start shooting. Chen Daoming responded with a smile, and continued: "I said Ah Ren, how long is your brain, there was an epic sci-fi blockbuster "Interstellar" before, and now this "Iron Man" I have a hunch that it will also be a hit movie. ”
"Hahaha, borrowing Uncle Ming's auspicious words, the movie is a big hit, but in the end, it is up to the audience to decide, what we can do is to make this movie with our hearts. Chen Yongren said.
After all, Chen Daoming is also a person who has acted in countless classic movies, so he can also give Chen Yongren some advice and inspiration.
In the evening of the same day, the official website of Longteng Film and Television also officially announced the specific start time of "Iron Man", and "Iron Man" will hold a press conference on August 8, 2008 at the Magic City Hotel.
"Wow, it's finally time to start filming, and it feels like I've been waiting for a century. ”
"I hope Chen Daoming can perfectly interpret Iron Man and don't ruin the classics. ”
"I'm so worried, can Chen Daoming successfully play Iron Man..."
"The strong combination is another blockbuster worth waiting for and looking forward to. ”
"After watching the comic version of "Iron Man", I personally feel that Chen Daoming is not suitable for this role, but I still believe in the vision of director Chen Yongren, and I hope that Chen Daoming can bring a different Iron Man. ”
"It only started in August, I don't know how long I have to wait to see the movie, it's still a long time before August"
"Congratulations in advance on the box office success of "Iron Man"!"
…………
After getting the exact time, countless fans who watched the comic version of "Iron Man" during this time also left comments one after another, saying that in general, this "Iron Man" has not yet been released, and there are already countless steel fans.
