Chapter 467: The script is not good yet
Well, there is always a certain difference between imagination, drawings and reality, not to mention, smartphones and notebooks are fine, the metal shell looks more pleasing to the eye, the wireless headphones are purely a pair of headphones that go to the wire and put there, and the gravity-sensing keyboard is a plastic piece with keyboard symbols printed on it.

It's no wonder that Cameron has a disgusted look, this is not a skeleton model of the Terminator after all, it can have the so-called cold metal beauty.
Li Xu smiled, did not answer, but opened the clamshells of the two notebook models, well, the various layouts are similar to the MBP and SFB in memory, and the Apple logo and window logo behind it are also obvious, but the Apple logo obviously can't be lit.
He actually really wants to get a real LCD monitor, even if there is no operating system, it can only be lit up, anyway, this thing can already be made in the laboratory, but it costs a lot more.
However, even if it is done, what about the battery? This is still the era of nickel batteries, and they dare not charge it until they run out, and the laptop may still be able to get an external power supply, but what about the smartphone?
Anyway, when the time comes, the content displayed on the notebook and the content displayed on the mobile phone can only be drawn by hand.
"Hey, Eddie, how is it, are you satisfied?" said George Lucas.
"Of course, this little thing can't bother you, does it?" Li Xu laughed.
Well, these props are all made by Industrial Light and Magic, they were originally doing this, a piece of cake, not to mention that Li Xu is still the boss.
Then, Lucas listened to Li Xu's future story and was quite interested, so today I heard that he came to inspect the goods, and he also came to take a look.
"That's pretty much it, how about going to drink coffee together?" Li Xu then said again.
Lucas naturally agreed, he had a good relationship with Li Xu, and he could also talk to Cameron - this time this and "Terminator" were special effects made by Industrial Light and Magic.
"Speaking of which, I made a story in 2015, have you ever wondered how Star Wars is going to go, George? Looking for a café outside, after blowing all over the world, when talking about Li Xu's idea, he asked Lucas.
"What else can be developed. Lucas immediately looked unhappy.
This is not aimed at Li Xu, but those academic antiques, from the very beginning, they pointed fingers at the "Star Wars" series, thinking that this was a treachery. Coupled with the quarrel over the names of the director and actor at the beginning of the film, Lucas, like another plane, has angrily announced that he will no longer direct movies from now on - it is no problem to be a producer.
"Of course, man," Li Xu smiled, "conservative people are like this, I have heard such a three laws of technology: any technology that existed when I was born is part of the ordinary world order, any technology born between the ages of 15 and 35 is a revolutionary product that will change the world, and any technology born after the age of 35 violates the laws of nature and will be punished by God." ”
Lucas immediately burst out laughing: "I like that. ”
"So, George, will you be as conservative as them in thirty years?" Li Xu asked with a smile.
This time Cameron laughed, and Lucas's laughter stopped abruptly, and then, he glared at him: "Okay, you can mention the Star Wars series, but you have to inform me in advance." ”
"No problem. Li Xu shrugged.
Then, as if this was not enough, Lucas immediately looked at Cameron: "What about you, "Terminator" should be a good fit to be made into a series, right?"
"There already is. Cameron suppressed his laughter and made a helpless expression, "Eddie has prepared the script for the sequel, I read it and I like it very much." ”
"Really?" Lucas was a little surprised, "when will it turn on?"
"It's still early, Eddie said that the current technology is not enough to show the desired effect, at least after five or six years of computer technology development, I looked at the renderings he drew and determined that. ”
"Oh, when will I take a look. ”
Seeing that they were discussing so lively, Li Xu also breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, since the film to be shot is a future movie, and many details must be shown, of course some cultural aspects must be arranged.
Not to mention the phenomenal "Star Wars", Cameron's "Terminator" series can also be used, and the DC and Marvel cinematic universes can also be mentioned.
Speaking of which, he was a little depressed, although most of the time, Marvel was pressed by DC, but there were two periods when Marvel was pressed by DC.
Not to mention one, 30 years later, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has overwhelmed DC, and a "Wonder Woman" is barely able to stabilize its position, and it is still very early to recover the situation.
There's another time, when David Shanoff, an executive at Warner Communications, called Marvel editor-in-chief Jim Schuttre last February and asked if they would be interested in buying DC comic book characters.
It sounds fantastical, but it's true, because Marvel was dominant in comics during this period, and although DC was acquired by Warner and released the "Superman" series of movies to great acclaim, it still did not improve in the comic book market.
So Shanoff wants to sell the comic book characters to Marvel, so that Marvel will be more dominant in the comic book market, and DC will also make money.
On Marvel's side, Schutter was happy, but as soon as the news was reported, there was no sound. Later, when I asked, I found out that the president said that DC Comics did not sell well, indicating that the characters must be scumbag, and Marvel was not interested...... Not interested......
This matter has been talked about by Marvel fans decades later, the opportunity to dominate the world, just missed it, how can Marvel be so Marvel? If it weren't for this, the current DC fans would still be able to jump?
Having said that, in fact, it is no problem for Marvel to choose this way, because at this time, their market share has reached 69%, and the US law stipulates that the market share of a comic book company must not exceed 70%, if you really buy a DC character, it will be really cool......
In short, it can be seen how beautiful Marvel was in the 80s, so when Li Xu asked people to find them last year and asked for an acquisition, they refused without thinking about it.
In addition, Marvel has not yet been listed, and if you want to start, you have to find another way, how can it not be depressing? Speaking of which, in another time and space, how did they get acquired by New Century Pictures this year?
Of course, these actually don't matter, Marvel is not a must-have, their most valuable thing is the creative committee, even if it is acquired, it is not easy to interfere, and it has to be responsible for the operation, but it is a little troublesome.
If you really want to have an idea, you can wait until 91, Marvel is going to go public after all.
So it's actually all okay, what's even more depressing is, how can you get Steve Jobs and Gates to appear together?
Li Xu really wants to get them over, put on old makeup, sit together and talk about his views on the future of IT, yes, it is a replica of that conversation in 07.
It doesn't need to be too complicated, even if it's just showing your face on the big screen, it can be regarded as an easter egg for the future.
It stands to reason that there should be no problem, and with Li Xu's friendship with them, it is absolutely okay to move them to sit down and shoot for a few minutes.
But don't forget, this year is 85 years, and in February, Jobs clashed with the board of directors over the sales of Macintosh computers, and it was only three months after he was kicked out of Apple.
Before that, the movie must have been poorly made, so how should it be introduced in the movie? Is he still the president of Apple? Li Xu is willing to do this, but when it comes to reality, it is somewhat of a trouble.
As for keeping Jobs at Apple, no kidding, without this blow, his arrogant nature of being the only one in the world and the world does not know when it will be changed.
It was this blow that made him more tactful – though often a tyrant – and more resolute.
Therefore, although Li Xu's representative supported Jobs on the board of directors many times, he hinted to others in private: Hey, just look at it, don't take it seriously.
In short, if it is launched in the second half of this year, Jobs will definitely be happy to play the returning president of Apple in the movie, but in reality, it is somewhat troublesome to investigate.
Li Xu hates trouble, especially this kind of red tape-like trouble, so there are so many lawsuits in the Americans.
Of course, everything is comparative, and the failure to acquire Marvel is frustrating, but compared to the cameos of Rajobs and Gates, it is nothing.
Lajobs and Gates cameos are troublesome, but compared to another thing, they are not so troublesome.
"When are you going to turn it on, Add. Lucas asked.
"I don't know yet. Li Xu spread his hands
"Don't know what to bring?" Lucas's eyes widened, "You've got all the props you want, you've tried the post-production special effects a few times, you and Jamie have drawn so many renderings, and then you told me I don't know when it will turn on?!"
Li Xu sighed, looked at Cameron, and motioned for him to explain, and then Cameron also sighed: "Script." ”
After being stunned for a few seconds, Lucas reacted: "You want to say, the script is not finished yet?!"
"Yes," Li Xu said this, he was a little weak, there was no way, the screenwriters were very powerful, but it was okay for them to reasonably imagine the lives of ordinary people in 30 years, and to reasonably imagine the criminal methods, there was still a little bit of strength to be caught.
Therefore, it is often that they think of a good idea, and after sending it over, Li Xu looked at it twice and hit it back.
"The FBI and NSA will listen to your mobile phone, and if you do this, you will be discovered a long time ago!"
"The so-called hacker is to illegally invade your computer through the network, which is a variant of 'hack'! You can't hide these things in front of them!"
"The so-called big data means that the government knows what you like to eat, what you like to do, and which girl you like, and your simple disguise is meaningless on this!"
Well, Li Xu is somewhat harsh, even after 30 years, those crime suspense movies will still inevitably have a lot of bugs, not to mention that they have to make crime suspense movies after 30 now.
However, when he thought that this was a super easter egg that he had made up, and when he thought of the expressions of those netizens 30 years later, he would inevitably be harsh, which was really contradictory.
