Cameron painted the imaginary picture, his tone was full of longing, but the girl sitting next to Eric smiled and poured cold water: "But it must also be very expensive." Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"Oh, Drew," Cameron shook his head and pointed at Eric, "Your problem isn't a problem at all for this guy. ”

"Of course, the problem of money is not the problem, the channel is the problem," Eric said to Cameron with a smile: "If you make Spider-Man in 3dimax format according to your vision, then you will find that you can't find a theater that can play this movie." ”

Eric's words were like a basin of real cold water, and Cameron also came to his senses, remembering what Stan Winston said that the 3dimax screen used for testing in Firefly Studios, if not the first in the world, is definitely one of the few in the world.

However, thinking of the 3dimax screen, Cameron immediately understood, looked at Eric, and said, "You guy, I was almost deceived by you, since the 3dimax screen appeared here, you must have a plan in mind, right?"

"Of course," Eric didn't sell off, and said with a smile: "Even, Firefly Software has begun to secretly develop professional tool software for 2D to 3D technology, as long as the time is ripe, a special 3D conversion branch will be set up in the digital field to bring Hollywood's classic films suitable for conversion into 3D movies back to the big screen." ”

Strictly speaking, the 2D to 3D technology has now appeared, if it weren't for the fact that all the energy was restrained by "Titanic" in advance, according to the timeline of the original time and space, Cameron should have made a 3D version of "Terminator 2" at this time. However, the current 2D-to-3D technology can only be described as rough, and it is simply impossible to achieve large-scale commercialization.

Eric has witnessed the whole process of the original time and space due to the flood of various pseudo-3D, resulting in the whole process of this new film technology with very broad development prospects being smashed by the industry, since he now has enough influence and voice in Hollywood, he certainly hopes that the related technology can be developed more maturely, so as to achieve the healthy development of this industry.

Cameron asked, "Hey, Eric, don't say it so unclearly, how long will it take? Is three years enough, the production cycle of "Spider-Man" is exactly three years. ”

"Jim, you have to understand that if we want to promote 3D movies on a large scale, and even go one step further with 3DIMAX, we are facing a large-scale upgrade of the entire industry chain. From the basic 3D camera development to the final upgrade of the cinema equipment, none of this can be achieved overnight. I think it should take at least five years for the first results. So, let's wait for your next movie and think about this kind of thing. ”

Actually, it's not impossible to force up this process, but it's not in line with Eric's expansion plan for Firefly.

Eric got a theory from Warren Buffett to strengthen himself in good economic conditions and seek expansion in difficult economic conditions.

In recent years, the North American economy has been at its best, not to mention the rapid development of the IT industry, even Hollywood, because of the booming global film market, the videotape/DVD industry and the further expansion of the cable industry, the average annual growth rate of the Hollywood film industry is well over 10%.

Eric knows that the current favorable development environment of Hollywood will enter a period of downturn around 2000 with the bursting of the Internet bubble, and at that time, it will be the best moment for Firefly to further expand. Eric's plan to use Clover Holdings' investment in Nasdaq IT shares is actually accumulating funds for the further expansion of Firefly after 2000, and with Firefly's current size, a small merger of hundreds of millions of dollars can no longer be called an expansion. If it can take advantage of the dot-com bubble to accumulate $20 billion or 30 billion in cash reserves, Firefly Group will be able to pay as little equity as possible when it enters a new industry or seeks a merger target, or even no longer needs to use the share swap model at all.

Cameron obviously couldn't think of these large-scale industrial development plans, he just felt a little pity.

If it were otherwise, Cameron might have delayed the production of Spider-Man for a few years, and he could totally afford to wait.

It's just that he has promised Eric a long time ago to this project, although he is under a lot of pressure on the project "Titanic", but Cameron also knows that Eric is not much less under pressure than him, because Eric spares no effort to support this project even a little blindly, if "Titanic" fails at the box office, the management of Firefly Group may lose trust in Eric. Eric gave him so much support, and as a man of temperament, he wouldn't let Eric down.

Everyone talked about 3dimax again, and Eric felt a little dry in his mouth, took a few sips of coffee, and asked casually, "Jim, what about you, what have you been busy with lately?"

The project of "Spider-Man" will not start until at least the second half of this year, and Cameron does not need to bother with the Oscar public relations of "Titanic", as for whether to go to Europe or Japan to participate in the next stage of the promotion of "Titanic", it is completely up to him, and Cameron should be very leisurely during this time.

Cameron said: "It's nothing, I'm not like you workaholic, oh yes, I came up with a good idea, and when the idea is mature, I'll take it out, maybe Firefly will want to make it into a movie." ”

Eric was interested, and said, "Tell me, maybe we can come up with some ideas together." ”

Cameron didn't hide it, and said briskly: "It's a science fiction story script, telling the story of a girl escaping from the transformer base after the world suffered a global disaster, and now it's just some simple background settings, and I'm still thinking about what this global disaster should be." ”

"Nuclear war, of course," Drew said playfully.

Eric immediately remembered what Cameron's 'idea' was, smiled, and then said: "If it is a nuclear war, then there are not many living people on the earth, and a large-scale nuclear war, the residual strong radiation is enough to make this world unsuitable for living beings for decades." ”

"That's true," Stan Winston said on the other side, "Moreover, after nuclear war, it should be followed by nuclear winter, with radiation clouds blocking the sun, and the earth's surface temperature may even drop below freezing. ”

"That's what I thought," Cameron said, "So, nuclear war is not appropriate at all, it's simply a post-apocalyptic era, all I want is an era of chaos after a massive global catastrophe, where humanity may die en masse, cities will be deserted, but the living environment on Earth will not get worse." ”

"Don't you like Japanese comics," Eric listened to Cameron's words, pretending to be unintentional: "If that's the case, you should know that in many Japanese science fiction comics, there is a special global attack method that will cause large-scale failure of electronic instruments around the world." ”

Cameron immediately understood: "You mean, electromagnetic attack?"

Eric nodded: "According to your thoughts, I guess you should choose a point in time in the future, when human beings will be more dependent on electronic devices, then, once these devices are attacked, it will definitely cause social chaos on a global scale." Think about it, if there were a global blackout now, the consequences would be catastrophic. ”

"Yes, that's it," Cameron clapped his hands, and his train of thought immediately cleared, "We can even set a more complete worldview for this story, the turbulent times, the martial law society, the civilians at the bottom struggling to survive, well, and the larger conspiracy plans brewing in the aftermath of this disaster." ”

"So, the heroine of the story should be the twist that connects it all," Eric continued, "but with this setting, I think the idea should be more suitable for making a TV series than a movie." ”

"That's not bad," Cameron didn't insist, and said: "This girl in the story should be very kind, but very strong, and at the same time, her character should also have a very complex side, like an angel who has fallen to the bottom, well, it's called ******, what do you think?"

"Very good," Eric nodded with a smile, "The end of the world ******." ”

"Yes, the end of ******the world," Cameron said, "That's the name, I'll get the setting out during this time, Eric, if Firefly is interested, prepare a team of writers for me." ”

Eric nodded, "The End of the ******", although in the history of the past, this classic sci-fi American drama was cut after only two seasons were produced, but that was not the reason for the TV series itself, until many years later, sci-fi fans still remembered the follow-up story of "The ******End of the World".

"Jim, I can help you prepare a team of writers, but there's a request. ”

"What?" Cameron asked curiously.

Eric smiled: "Heroine, it's up to me to choose, I don't believe in your aesthetics." ”

Everyone laughed.

Cameron shrugged his shoulders and said, "Okay, whatever you want, however, I am still very satisfied with the heroine of "Titanic", which shows that the aesthetics of the two of us should be similar." ”

"Oh, and," Eric suddenly remembered again, "This TV series is more in line with the tastes of young people, and it is not suitable for ABC broadcasting, it just so happens that this year's Fox's "The X-Files" is over, if you want, maybe you can let this movie take over the schedule of "The X-Files". ”

"It's your business," Cameron said, "I don't care about the release, even if you just let Fox produce it, I don't care." ”

Eric nodded and smiled, "Then I'll just ask the X-Files screenwriting team to contact you, they happen to have a lot of experience in writing sci-fi scripts." ”

"The End of the World****** was completely just an accident, and Cameron's personal energy will still be on "Spider-Man", and he will not be the producer like the original plane, and Eric then simply let Fox take over the project directly. It just so happened that after the end of "The X-Files", Fox also needed a new sci-fi TV series to fill the schedule, because of the strong influence brought by "Titanic", Fox attached great importance to "The ******End of the World", and the project soon entered the preliminary preparation stage.
