Section 288: Untitled
“…… This is the third version of the alien creature, codenamed C8, which is mainly designed by some insects, for example, the antennae on his head are inspired by the ...... of the longhorn beetle"
Duane sat in his seat, looking at the computer screen in front of him, on which was a three-dimensional pattern that could be described as a "monster", and Li Mingyuan, who was commenting next to him, turned the pattern around as he spoke, showing the model in 360 degrees in all directions.

After Duane met Xie Jin last night, he rushed to ILM today to check on the progress of post-production.
When Li Mingyuan explained the model in front of him about the same, Du An's mouth, "I personally prefer the previous C5, C8, the light is disgusting, not scary enough, and the visual effect is not strong enough." Of course, my favorite is the C5's bio-armor concept, which is pretty cool. ”
"And C3 is not bad, C3 and C5, you all make a mold and let me see it, after all, this thing can't just be seen on the screen, or it feels better to implement it in reality. ”
Li Mingyuan silently wrote it down and nodded, "Okay." ”
After saying this, Duane's glasses moved away from the computer screen, looked at Li Mingyuan, and asked, "Aside from this one, how is the other work going?"
Li Mingyuan stopped the mouse, stood aside with his chest crossed, looked at the man sitting on his chair in front of him, and reported: "According to the video data and renderings you sent back before, the production work has begun, and the rest is a matter of time, after all, the amount of work is a bit large, and I can't be in a hurry." ”
Du An was about to speak, someone knocked on the door, Li Mingyuan shouted "come in", and his female secretary pushed open the door with a tray and came in, then put away the two cups of coffee and went out again.
Du An's stopped sitting, stood up and walked to the reception sofa with Li Mingyuan and sat down, took a sip of a cup of coffee, and said, "You can't rush, quality first, it doesn't matter if you spend a little more time." ”
Li Mingyuan nodded, he didn't know what he thought, he suddenly smiled, he couldn't maintain the calm painting style just now, a middle-aged man in his forties behaved like a young man who saw a beautiful woman, looked a little excited, and asked: "Mr. Du, Xie Jin is also involved in this movie?"
Duane glanced at him, not showing surprise, "You know?"
Li Mingyuan said "hi", "Can you not know? Xie Jin's photos of looking at the monitor on the set were revealed. ”
Duane didn't speak.
As a big production with an investment of "400 million", the confidentiality work during the filming of "Liberation Day" is excellent, although various media have privately opened a "huge" whistleblower fee and failed to get a single exposure photo on the set, why did the photos flow out this time?
This is, of course, deliberately put in by Duane.
It is precisely because of the absence of relevant news that this material is precious, not to mention that the person in the photo is still Xie Jin, which is even more explosive.
"Zhang Yimou, Huang Jianxin, Xie Jin, and Mr. Du, you, obediently, this film is amazing!"
Li Mingyuan was stunned while counting the names of people with his fingers, and his expression became more and more excited, "Originally, the lineup of this director team was luxurious enough, but now Xie Jin has come to intervene again, and this is a complete explosion." Mr. Du, if you haven't read the newspaper in the past two days, you may not know that now the media has been slaughtered by this news, and you can see it anywhere, which can be called the front page headlines in the past two days. ”
"In addition, there is an investment of 400 million yuan, and the background of China Film, I will definitely be able to get a good schedule and high-quality and huge screening channels, such a movie, it is actually us to special effects, which I couldn't think of before......"
Duane took his words, "That's why you have to work harder and do your best, in that case, you won't be able to catch up with this year's Huabiao Award, but next year's Huabiao Award may be able to stand up again." ”
Li Mingyuan shook his head, "It's good to take the Huabiao Award, but what I hope more now is to get the business started." He smiled wryly.
Duane remembered the financial situation he had just reported to him, and was silent for a moment.
Industrial Light & Magic just won the Best Special Effects Award at last year's Huabiao Awards with "Terminator", which did play a certain role in improving the company's business, but the effect was far less than they expected - originally, it was not for nothing that the special effects company that just won the Huabiao Award for Best Special Effects and then declared bankruptcy, and this line of business is not an award that can bring commercial success.
The company's internal management, cost control, business negotiations, business contact ability, interpersonal relationships in the circle, etc., etc., each of which affects the company's profitability, and the technical level is only one of them - unless the technical level is strong enough to surpass the times, otherwise the success of a company is more important to other aspects.
In general, the current industrial light and magic is still too weak in its own profitability, and it still needs to rely on him, and it cannot be used as a separate profit growth point.
"Take your time. ”
Duane was reassured.
As soon as he finished speaking, there was another knock on the door.
Li Mingyuan glanced in the direction of the door and said, "Please come in," and then his secretary came in again.
"What's the matter?"
"A reporter from Nanyang Morning Post came to the front desk, saying that he wanted to interview Director Duane. ”
The female secretary said, glancing at Duane.
This sense of smell is really sharp enough to smell so quickly.
Li Mingyuan didn't dare to make a decision, and looked at Du An, who took a sip of the coffee in front of him, put it down, and said, "You just said that I don't accept interviews." ”
The female secretary nodded, "I know, then I'll go out first." With that, he withdrew and closed the door.
After the female secretary went out, Li Mingyuan asked in confusion: "Why don't you accept the interview? After that photo came out, everyone is now speculating whether Xie Jin joined the crew of "Liberation Day".
Duane shook his head, "It's better if I don't show up now." ”
After he finished speaking, he saw Li Mingyuan's expression stunned, so he sighed in his heart: This is really a typical technical leader, and this kind of thing must be stunned. But forget it, technical leaders also have the advantages of technical leaders, and there are pros and cons.
Li Mingyuan is not a fool after all, after a few turns in his brain, his expression gradually relaxed, and he seemed to understand.
He nodded approvingly, and then asked, "But if you can hide today, how will you hide in the next few days?"
"How many days from now?"
Duane smiled, "If they can find me again in the next few days, like today, they will be very capable." ”
Li Mingyuan smelled a little smell and asked, "What, you're going out again?"
Du An nodded, and shook his head again, "Go to Shanghai first, I don't know where I will go next, it is estimated that I will not be in Nanyang for at least a month, so if there is any problem, you should raise it as soon as possible, otherwise we will only have a video conference in the future." ”
Li Mingyuan looked at him for a long time, did not move, and then sighed: "Other people only see the scenery on your stage, but how many people can see your hard work off the stage? After speaking, he also instructed with concern, "Take it easy, the money is endless, and you should find a chance to rest." ”
"I will. ”
Duane responded, but was immediately amused by his answer: when he was filming "The Terminator", he was thinking about resting, but the truth was that he was getting busier and busier.
"By the way, what are you doing in Shanghai?"
Li Mingyuan was idle and asked again.
Duane thought for a moment and said, "Go buy a house." (To be continued.) )
