After the complete emotional collapse after this scene, in the most difficult emotional outbreak scene left, Matthew is like a different person, the performance gives people a feeling of rebirth, and every demeanor and action becomes more emotional, because of this change, everyone obviously feels that the texture of the story in the whole shooting has improved a lot.

As an insurance manager with 23 years of experience, Miller also admires Li Xiaole's ability, although he is not a professional, but seeing Ma Xian's changes, he also realized that this New York shooting has greatly improved the movie, but admiration is admiration, but he still thinks Li Xiaole is ridiculous.

This little director has two brushes in shooting, but he can't tell the key points at all, and now the crew's budget is destined to be overrun......

Although this movie is definitely not like the box office of 100 million as Li Xiaole said, after all, there is an investment specification of 30 million, and it should be no problem to recover a box office of 10 million if the box office is worse...... Could it be that he has met another dedicated director who is desperate for the quality of the film......

But just when Miller secretly admired Li Xiaole as a person, the Chinese director seemed to have reacted, before filming those future scenes, Li Xiaole did not ask Miller for additional funds as expected, but did something that stunned everyone......

Together with the designers of the Chinese Black Pearl formula, he began to sketch some design drawings of technological electrical products on the computer, as if he planned to make those mechanical ......

Watching this little director draw drawings and describe various cutting-edge technology parts with relish, the rest of the crew felt that he must have been driven crazy...... These futuristic technologies in Hollywood movies are not something that can be imagined casually, you must know that this is not anywhere else, but North America, where elite artists and scientists gather!!

If there are some model machines in the film that are completely inconsistent with the principles of mechanics and industrial design, then the strict critics and tech-savvy fans will scold the movie to the point of blood, and every director will try to avoid these plots in the film.

Even if you want to design and manufacture these machines yourself, then you basically have to invite those professional industrial designers one or two years in advance to carefully design the finished product, which is needless to say that the cost is extremely high.

If you change the general domestic director, you will definitely think, weishenme is so stupid to redesign it by himself, and directly use other movies, such as "Star Wars" in others to design haode future machinery, how convenient it is to do it according to others~

This view is extremely ridiculous, because in a country like the United States, which is extremely protective of intellectual property rights, every scientific design will apply for its patent rights, such as more than 300 spaceships, robots, and even Aurora swords and other scientific and technological designs in the "Star Wars" series, each model has its registered movie intellectual patents, all of which are derivative products of the movie, and there are extremely huge profits in the later stage, such as the laser sword in Star Wars, the model of the mechanical police in "Robo Police", It has become a bestseller in the movie.

As long as there are other films that have products with similar designs to these products, they will inevitably receive a lawsuit from the original studio, resulting in huge damages.

There have been similar cases in the United States before, and the maximum compensation is more than 8 million US dollars, so when the directors design the futuristic machinery in their own films, they not only can't copy items from other science fiction movies, but even deliberately avoid similar designs, otherwise they will be cut out in the post-review of the film company.

Li Xiaole actually wanted to design the mobile phone, electronic tables and chairs, and humanoid therapy devices that appeared in the film in just over a week...... and so on...... This is simply a fantasy~!?

When Miller reported the situation to Sony, Sony's top management called directly to reprimand the person in charge of the project, MGM CEO Foudy, for half an hour.

"What kind of project is this? How do you choose the producers and directors!? You have to hold us accountable for investing tens of millions of dollars in this movie! ”

Foday, who was scolded for being bloody, also felt that he was inexplicably wronged, hung up the phone fiercely, and couldn't help but curse at the wall, "FUCK!" ”

This idiot Chinese kid!! It's just so stupid, how could I have approved such a ridiculous project in the first place! $30 million investment! This Chinese kid still comes to the third-rate production method of their Hong Kong movies!

Foudie was so angry that he immediately called Miller, suppressed his anger and asked, "Miller~!" Tell me, what is the design progress of that Chinese kid now, and can we send someone from MGM Design to fix it? ”

"I'm afraid I don't have to, there is not enough time...... He has only designed one mobile phone drawing so far...... My suggestion is to just use computer animation in post-production. Miller said helplessly on the other end of the phone, he thought that Li Xiaole was a noble artist who disregarded his personal interests for the quality of the movie, but he didn't expect that this Chinese director turned out to be a snob who ruined the movie in order to keep his dividends......

"This bastard...... What the hell is he doing!? Foudy was almost ranting into the microphone of his phone, and one of the two projects he had started at MGM was about to rot! Cut corners where you should spend the most money to make! This is undoubtedly a suicidal act, and he can't imagine what kind of bad reviews there will be after the release of this "Remote Control of Life"!

Now the most lethal thing is that Li Xiaole is still the chairman of Luen Mei, and he is not subject to any restrictions at all, as long as Li Xiaole can make the movie as scheduled, Sony must release it within the specified time according to the contract.

After hanging up the phone, Foudy walked back and forth in the room, and even kicked the wall a few times in anger, and after venting for more than ten minutes, he finally calmed down and collapsed in his chair.

He gritted his teeth, his fat face shook involuntarily because of anger, and now he really wanted to rush to Tom Cruise's office and slap him twice, it was because of Cruise's support that he took over the inexplicable and wonderful "Life Remote Control" project of Lianmei!

But he couldn't...... Now he can only hope for Tom Cruise's "Lion in the Sheep's Mouth" if the film can get 100 million dollars...... So this time he is a draw...... If he doesn't, his fate could be much more tragic than expected, and without Cork bringing MGM down, he'll be fired by Sony at the end of the year......

And just when the outside world thought that Li Xiaole was going to mess everything up, at this moment, Li Xiaole was busy day and night with his CG designer Wu Wei leading Black Sail Studio, and the props team of Black Pearl Company led by Xu Zhen.

During this time, Xu Zhen and Wu Wei were about to be driven crazy by Li Xiaole, the director didn't know where the inspiration came from, so he drew a design draft of a future mobile phone, and they had to get the mobile phone out of the real thing according to the requirements.

In fact, this was not difficult, but the difficulty was that there were a series of parts with internal structure on Li Xiaole's drawing, which were arranged together with extreme precision, although Xu Zhen had a certain understanding of machinery, but he was completely unable to understand the size and structural logic of those parts.

zuihou had no choice but to let Heifan Studio make a 3D model with computer three-dimensional animation, design all the parts in the computer, and then combine the calculation of the program to make a precise concept map of the mobile phone, and then Xu Zhen made a physical model according to Li Xiaole's various perverted requirements......

What made Xu Zhen speechless in this process was that Li Xiaole couldn't say what metal material he wanted, he just kept putting forward revisions through his feel and eyes: "It should feel more neat." "Beautiful old Leica camera." "There are fine seams in the corners, and it is necessary to do a good job of the feeling of tight seam integration."

Xu Zhen has been making movie props for more than 10 years, and he once made a robot model in "The Terminator" within a week, but he never thought that making a model of a mobile phone would be so difficult, Li Xiaole's requirements are not movie level at all, but perverted industrial level!

Xu Zhen didn't understand that Li Xiaole wanted to do this, after all, this was just a movie, even if he knew that Li Xiaole had always had a habit of nitpicking, but this was too much......

During this time, the props team made the model, adjusted it again and again, modified it again and again, and finally came up with a finished product that had been modified 34 times in one day of the production deadline.

In Li Xiaole's office, everyone gathered around to carefully look at the beautiful mobile phone with a transparent white body, a metal frame, an Apple icon reflected on the back, and only buttons on the front screen in addition to the screen.

"This ...... This exterior design is stunning...... Per...... Every detail is almost impeccable, Director Li said the truth...... Really, if you change careers to industrial design, I think it's also superb......"

"Really?" Wu Wei took the white mobile phone but didn't think it was as exaggerated as Xu Zhen described, and frowned: "I think it's very ordinary, where is there a mobile phone with only one button, even if it is in the future, how should it be controlled?" Do you want to add a stylus? ”

The movie describes the equipment between 2014 and 2024, which needs to be ahead of its time without being too sci-fi, Wu Wei feels that this mobile phone does not give him too much surprise, and the missing Apple trademark behind it is even more incomprehensible......
