According to the technician's reminder, after putting on a special viewing helmet, the first thing that appeared in front of Li Mo's eyes was darkness.

"Click"

With the sound of machinery and projection equipment turning on, a burst of colors like the Northern Lights gradually flashed in front of the originally endless darkness, and then these color powders began to quickly gather in front of Li Mo's eyes, and then carried out rapid permutations and combinations.

"It takes about five or six seconds to start the light and shadow equipment, so please wait."

Just when Li Mo felt that he was a little dazzled by these colors, a reminder suddenly sounded in his ears.

As soon as the words fell, immediately after, those colored powders condensed, a behemoth with a unique shape like a spaceship, suddenly floated in front of Li Mo's line of sight, as if it was speeding forward in the deep universe.

The glassy angular upper hatch, the smooth silver-gray mecha body dominated by curves and broken lines, the purple tail smoke being sprayed outward from the middle and rear of the spaceship, and the various blocky hatches that are clearly recognizable... The whole picture looks like you're watching a real live stream.

Facing this unique flying machine that occupied almost all the sight in front of him, Li Mo's first intuitive feeling was shock, unprecedented shock - such a model was several times more realistic than the spaceship shape in any Hollywood movie he had watched before, it was simply a video specially made for the real thing! But I really had never seen anything like this.

And then there's an inexplicable sense of familiarity, as if I've seen it somewhere.

"This is one of the models of the fighter that we have built based on the description of the novel, but the time is a little shorter, and if we can have more time, we can make it more detailed."

Immediately, Li Mo's ears heard the slightly excited commentary of the special effects staff, obviously the other party was also excited to show Li Mo the fruits of his labor.

In this regard, Li Mo nodded, indicating that he was quite satisfied with this effect, and then, another picture appeared in front of his eyes.

I saw that the newly formed spaceship was like a pile of sand in an instant, breaking down and scattering into countless color particles, and a dreamlike combination began again.

As the colors of the picture continue to alternate, a picture with a great visual impact appears in front of you.

"Huh? This is... Earth? ”

Seeing a blue planet that had just taken shape slowly turning, Li Mo couldn't help but blurt out.

Although the picture of the earth itself does not rely on these special effects, the current technical means are enough to make it realistic, after all, for this homeland, human beings have launched countless satellites to probe.

But as the camera continues to zoom closer to the earth in front of you, the real highlights appear one by one.

"Roar~"

"Hum rum~~~"

It seems that to match the effect of the picture in front of him, some special sounds have also begun to appear in Li Mo's headset.

"What are these..."

At this moment, when the camera zoomed in from outer space to the surface of the planet, Li Mo couldn't help but be shocked by the scene in front of him.

I saw that this place was not at all the human home in my impression, but a unique city full of all kinds of round castle-shaped mechanical buildings and all kinds of unknown beasts everywhere.

From each round fort there were tubes that resembled cannon barrels, long or short, and they continued to roar and shoot out blue or yellow cannons, shooting wildly at the monsters around them.

From time to time, beasts waving huge wings slashed in front of them, making a terrifying cry, blending with the continuous screams of beasts and monsters on the ground and the sound of artillery fire, as if people were instantly transported to an alien battlefield.

If he hadn't personally bought these light and shadow special effects equipment, I'm afraid that even Li Mo himself would really think that he was watching the war on another planet through an astronomical telescope.

"The model description of the world where the protagonist was born in the novel is basically constructed according to the content of your story."

After the "Earth" picture was shown in less than a minute, the special effects staff's voice sounded again, "If you think there is still a problem, we can continue to modify it, which is much easier and more expensive than using other software on the computer." ”

I have to say that relying on these light and shadow equipment to make these special effects products, the only cost is employee wages and electricity bills, compared with other film and television special effects companies that often spend sky-high manpower and material resources, it is really encouraging.

"No problem for the time being, keep putting it down." Li Mo replied in a flat tone.

After reading dozens of completed scene models one after another, and confirming that there was no other content, Li Mo took off the helmet on his head and put it on the table.

At this time, his eyes seemed to be constantly emerging with the vivid pictures he had just seen, and even gave him the illusion that even if he directly used virtual characters and models, he might be able to shoot this work directly.

"Just now, you basically took out the main scenes that the whole work needs, what do you think?"

After also taking off the equipment he was wearing, the technician looked at Li Mobi and said respectfully.

"It's not bad overall, it's better than I expected..."

To be honest, the effect that Li Mo could think of before was probably the most cutting-edge special effects technology he had seen in the theater, and he didn't have too high expectations for these members who tried to use plane technology to create exclusive special effects for the first time.

It's just that I didn't expect that the other party really made a work that was completely beyond his imagination, and moved the film and television special effects that seemed to be only seen in the plane mall back to the earth plane.

"But this is only one aspect, in the later stage, we have to integrate the real actors with these light and shadow models, and then it will be time to really test your strength."

It is true that relying on such technical means is enough to visually bring a unique experience to the audience, but no matter how good the effect is, it is inseparable from the story as a carrier to promote the interpretation, otherwise it may be difficult to arouse the audience's deeper shock and emotion by relying solely on these special effects.

"We are ready, as long as all conditions allow, we can carry out new missions immediately!"

In this regard, the special effects personnel in front of him still revealed an absolute confidence.

"That's good."

Li Mo nodded, then got up and walked to the railing, looking at the people who were filming below quietly thinking about something.

…

A week later, two buses marked "Lancao Media" slowly drove into the film and television base in the manor and stopped not far from the phantom special effects room.

As the door opened, dozens of people dressed in different clothes rushed out of the car, standing in the open space and curiously taking in the surrounding scenery.

"This is the legendary AACC self-built special effects studio, which is really unique."

"Is this where we make the sci-fi film "Fallen Country"? It doesn't feel like a good match..."

Faced with the surrounding architectural scenes, real or imaginary, these newly arrived makeup artists or actors couldn't help but discuss for a while.

After that, they were followed by four or five luxury cars, and when the cars stopped, several first-line celebrities walked down one after another, which once again attracted the attention and excitement of these supporting actors.

Among them, there are not only the personable Tony Leung, or the masculine Donnie Yen, and the smiling Jackie Chan, but also Alain, Han Xiuyin, who originally belonged to the internal hostess, and Chen Qiaoen, Lin Chiling and others who joined later.

At first glance, it looks like a red carpet for a development conference or a premiere.

In fact, Li Mo is indeed out of this consideration, and gathered these actors today to officially hold a start-up ceremony.

At this moment, some journalists who have already been stationed here or who have come to inquire about it have gathered around, and everyone has turned their cameras on these rare gatherings, but compared to the bustling city, the number of fans and onlookers here is still a little scarce.

And the appearance of these people finally made this newly built film and television base finally seem worthy of its name.

Not far from the parking spot, a temporary stage has been built, and the background is also a huge poster created by light and shadow special effects, with several three-dimensional words full of science fiction engraved on the top, "The official opening ceremony of "Sinking Country"

In terms of scale and effect, it is not inferior to the traditional opening ceremonies held in luxury hotels or university campuses.

Then several staff members dressed in bluegrass media uniforms walked over under the leadership of Luo Qiu.

"Mr. Donnie Yen, please enter the palm prints so that we can issue you the key to enter the special effects room."

"Brother Jackie Chan, it's a pleasure to meet you, please enter the palm prints." …

Greeted by several staff members, many actors were surprised to learn that their palmprints would be temporarily used as a pass to enter and exit the special area.

"Sorry, excuse me, don't we have to record it?"

Seeing that several actors were all authorized to rely on palm prints as keys to enter the special effects studio behind them within the specified period, several other makeup artists or agents inquired curiously.

"That's right, all our makeup tasks are done in the dressing room next to us, including the make-up that also needs the actors to come out in the middle of the make-up, and there is a room for the agent to rest, so you don't need to go into the special effects room to work."

In this regard, several Bluegrass Media staff patiently explained.

This is also what Li Mo meant, for the makeup artists or agents brought by the big-name actors themselves, it is difficult to dispel his concerns by signing a confidentiality agreement alone, out of confidentiality, he finally decided to reduce the number of people who can enter this special effects room as much as possible to avoid unnecessary exposure.

"I didn't expect the secrecy work here to be so strict, I really want to go in now to see what is going on inside, it seems that the outside is quite magical."

After hearing the complaints of his makeup artist, Jackie Chan, who was about to go on stage to answer questions from reporters at the scene, looked at the steel building and said with some curiosity, "It will really be better than those special effects companies under Hollywood." ”

I have the impression that I have shot other movies before, and I have never signed a confidentiality agreement outside of the acting contract like this time.

If it weren't for AACC's resounding name in China, as an international superstar, I am afraid he would not have considered making such an unreliable Chinese science fiction movie.

It seems that there are no big-name screenwriters, no veteran directors, and even the scripts are adapted from online novels that I am not familiar with, and from any traditional point of view, it seems that there is no value in participating.

But in the end, under the unanimous persuasion of the people around him, and watching several AACC productions in person, Jackie Chan finally accepted the invitation, and like everyone else, it came from the trust in this unique brand.

Like Jackie Chan, several other big-name leading actors basically had this idea and finally signed this performance contract with Lancao.

After completing the palm print, everyone also turned their eyes to the steel special effects room that seemed to hide a huge secret, looking forward to entering it immediately to see what the rookie company was selling, and why a single movie topic could cause such a big wave of discussion on the Internet.

But the first thing they have to do is to complete the boot ceremony in front of them. (To be continued.) )
