Film companies all over the world have taken action, they all know that "Avatar" is now unstoppable, look at the countless fans gathered on the Internet, and then look at those 'self-judgment to thank the world' remarks, there are simply not too many crazy fans!!

In addition to film companies, famous entertainment media from various countries have not been idle. Reporters were sent to Huaxia, and they wanted to be the first to learn about "Avatar" and IAMX.

And some businesses with a keen sense of smell are also brainstorming, hoping to take this opportunity to see if they can insert advertisements in "Avatar" or something, judging from the fact that "Avatar" has become popular to this extent before it is currently released, it doesn't matter if the advertising fee is several times more expensive than before.

What's even more bizarre. The world's six famous gambling cities, Monaco Monte Carlo, Paradise Island in the Bahamas, Melbourne in Australia, Baden in Germany, Las Vegas, and Macau, all coincidentally opened their markets at this time, ready to bet on the global box office of "Avatar". They all want to take advantage of this world's film event to make a fortune!!

$1 billion ......

$1.5 billion......

US$2 billion......

$2.5 billion ......

$3 billion......

More than $3.5 billion......

How high can "Avatar" get at the box office? Odds are highest for under $1 billion and over $3.5 billion, while odds for $2 billion-$2.5 billion are the lowest.

Many gambling fans are movie fans, and they are also attracted by this novel gambling and have placed bets.

Hanbani is both a movie fan and a gambler. He is different from other gamblers, the gambling projects he plays are all gambling projects with low luck and high skills, with his high IQ and flexible thinking and calm personality, not only did he not lose over the years, but also became a personal life winner, winning to 'marry' a good friend.

He's been to the World Expo. And Huaxia Pavilion IMAX-3D He queued up five times in a row in one day, so that the front desk attendants knew him. For the IAMX-3D trailer for Avatar, Hanbani can be said to be impressed, he loves the scenery and creatures inside too much, it's a magical world. He has faith in Avatar!!

So when Las Vegas opened the box office projected handicap. Hanbani ran over in a hurry.

$1 billion? Please, please don't insult the IQ okay?

$1.5 billion? There is absolutely no difficulty.

$2 billion? Well, it should be achievable, right?

$2.5 billion? It can be a bit difficult.

$3 billion? Isn't that possible?

$3.5 billion? Which comma is the number that is made? Rough, I promise not to kill you!

After thinking about it, Hanbani decided to wait for the press conference on Huaxia's side to start, and then talk about it, he was most optimistic about it between 20-2.5 billion.

――――――――――

On October 3rd, the two major international airports of the magic capital continued to welcome many strange gringos, blonde whites, black people with only teeth, and all kinds of strange people......

On October 4th, the international airport was greeted with more foreigners......

A young man waiting to board the plane at the airport looked curiously at the endless stream of foreigners and asked his friend curiously, "What do you say is the matter with these foreigners?" The magic capital has now dug up a gold mine?

The friend looked at him: "You don't know this??" ”

"Don't know what??"

The friend explained: "I hope that Film and Television will release a press conference tomorrow?" You see, many of these people are holding cameras, and at first glance they are professionals, probably photographers from news media. ”

"Oh, yes, I forgot about the Avatar press conference." The young man suddenly realized.

"It's still Lin Mu, I looked down on him a little bit last year, but now, I can only admire."

"Mmmm, I've become his brainless fan."

On this day, I hope that the staff of film and television and the hotel staff hired by money can be busy without touching the ground, and they are just busy!!

Arrange the venue, parking lot, meeting room, waiting hall, fruit, meal, wine purchase......

In the customer service department, at this time, the phone of the customer service department has been blown up, and the ******** phone branch line has also been blown up, and another call will come in immediately after one call is put down.

So far, there have been as many as 3,000 applications for interviews and participation, and nearly 1,500 applications are from media reporters from all over the world, while others include filmmakers from all over the world, as well as film companies and some businesses that are negotiating advertising cooperation......

So many people hope that tomorrow film and television will become a vegetable market. A conference room is definitely not enough, and I hope that the film and television side is already considering using computer technology to solve this problem.

In addition to the busy staff, there have been many reporters who have come to step on the field, and at this time, many reporters and photographers have come outside the Hope Building in advance. They are here to familiarize themselves with the venue and try to grab a good spot tomorrow.

At this time, Pearl TV also used the news channel to report news to the magic capital and the whole country: "Hello audience, now broadcast a news message to you, tomorrow the star company of the magic city hopes that the film and television group will organize a press conference, just got the exact news of the hope film and television group, has received more than 5,000 applications from all over the world to participate in the conference, and the number of people who are expected to participate in the press conference will exceed 7,000 people." And now the picture you see is the downstairs of the Hope Building, where many reporters have gathered in advance. ”

In addition to Modu TV, there are also foreign TV stations that have produced news and broadcast it on this TV station.

Before the press conference even started, it was already on the TV news.

The national television station was also a little unable to sit still at this time, and hurriedly sent reporters to the magic capital, and also mobilized resources to broadcast the news about the press conference of "Avatar" on the news network program.

This will be the largest public relations event of Hope Film and Television since the establishment of the company, and it will also be the largest press conference of Huaxia Film Company from a global film company.

I hope that the film and television side is busy and the news reports are continuous, and other film companies in China will be a little surprised, envious, jealous, and mixed...... And the Southeast Film and Television Group, which has always regarded Hope Film and Television as a great enemy, and those Wang Hei have been so jealous that they are crazy......

October 5......

The rising sun illuminates the entire magic capital and illuminates the huge logo of the Hope Building......

Below, it is already bustling with traffic......

Starting today, I hope that the film and television group will cross a new ladder......

Modu TV.

"Morning News" - "Now broadcast the latest news for you, just received the news from the Hope Building, the base of the Magic Film and Television Alliance, at 7:10 this morning, nearly 1,000 guests gathered under the Hope Building, as you can see from the photo screen, most of them are holding interview microphones or cameras, most of them are reporters from all over the world......"

As reported on the morning news, when the red sun had just risen, there were already a lot of people under the Hope Building.

The press conference is scheduled to begin at 9:00 a.m. By 8:00 a.m., the reporters and guests who had passed the review and obtained the permission to participate in the meeting had already arrived.

Lin Mu looked down from his office and could see the ant-like people below. The morning in the magic capital in October seemed very refreshing, so those reporters and guests did not feel hot and lined up in an orderly manner to enter the scene.

Because the number of people is so large, more than the estimated 7,000, the Hope Building built a huge roof in the fitness plaza behind the building last night to block the sun, and the press conference will be held here.

As for the air-conditioning and refrigeration facilities, they were also done last night to ensure that the guests would not feel hot. Above the ceiling, 10 huge screens are also hung for real-time live broadcasts to ensure that the guests in the back can see the situation in front.

Similarly, because there were too many media reporters who came to interview, there were more than 1,000, so there was no way for a reporter to ask a question, and in the end, Lin Mu directly decided to use computer lottery software to 'draw lots', and the selected reporters could get a chance to ask questions.

At 8:30, everyone entered the press conference. There was a commotion inside, and the black pressed a head, which was spectacular. Fortunately, everyone is a quality person, so there is an orderly inside.

Lin Mu, several assistant directors and other main creative staff only appeared on the stage of the press conference at 8:40.

Xie Tingfeng followed Lin Mu to the stage. Looking at the black press of reporters and guests below, Rao is still excited after the baptism of the Oscars. He knows that most of these media reporters are the world's most mainstream entertainment media, including the North American "Los Angeles Times", "Variety", "Hollywood Reporter", and "Los Angeles Times". There are Reuters, Le Monde, and The Times in the European Union, as well as The Star, Associated Press, and other countries......

These media have a good influence in their own country and neighboring countries and even the world, and through this opportunity and platform, their fame will surely rise to another height. Star level 18? Star level 19? It shouldn't be too difficult.

Thinking of this, Xie Tingfeng felt that his whole body was trembling.

Like Xie Tingfeng, the main creators who appeared here were full of excitement. After today, I will be famous all over the world.

It was soon 9:00 a.m., and the press conference officially began.

Lin Mu first got up to welcome all the guests, and then briefly introduced "Avatar", and then officially entered the interview link that the reporters paid the most attention to. The computer-based lottery was not contested by the majority of journalists. On the contrary, it is very supportive.

Soon a foreign reporter was selected, and he went straight to the topic without any thought: "Hello Director Wang, I want to ask a thing that many fans and filmmakers are very concerned about, as far as we know, the movie "Avatar" has been launched since August 2011. Then in March 2012, it was completed, only about 7 months, may I ask Director Wang, why can a film with an investment of 4.4 billion US dollars be made so quickly? Is there a problem of cutting corners? ”

As soon as this question came out, many filmmakers present were shocked.

Lin Mu already had a draft, and replied unhurriedly: "Regarding the question of cutting corners, I can answer with certainty that you don't. The proof is in the movie, and when you see the movie, you don't think so. And I'm not going to joke about my 4.4 billion RMB, right? ”

Lin Mu seems to be very confident in his film. "As for why it was filmed so fast? Why did it only take about 7 months? I'm going to give you the answer -- 75% of the Avatar movie is computer special effects, and only 25% of the rest. That's why the shooting time is so short. ”

As soon as this answer came out, the scene was full of thunder.

"Wow! No way? ”

"Computer special effects account for 75 percent. The other is only 25%??!! ”

"It's a cartoon??"

But at this time, another reporter was drawn out by lot, and they hurriedly put aside this surprise and focused on the next question.

"I hope this reporter's question is a little more technical." That's what they thought.

The reporter was obviously smart and thought of a key question: "According to what Director Wang just said, computer special effects account for 75%. So why did the post-production of Avatar only take a short 7 months? Even if I started working on special effects from the time I started the camera, it was only 14 months. This time is about the same as the production time of "The Lord of the Rings" and "Transformers", and according to this reasoning, the effect of "Avatar" should not be as great as we think, but only about or worse than "The Lord of the Rings" and "Transformers". Will this be the case? ”

All the guests looked at Lin Mu and wanted to hear Lin Mu's answer, and they were also very concerned about this question.

"Absolutely not!" Lin Mu looked around, his face calm, "In 2002, I already had an idea about "Avatar" when I was filming his film and television works, but the special effects at that time could not support such a movie, so this film project has been shelved. At the end of 2010, I asked the VFX department to follow my manuscript to complete some Pandora creatures, but I wasn't very satisfied. At the beginning of 2011, I invited famous biological, physicist, and linguistic scientists at home and abroad to design this film, and the ecology, biology, technology, and even extraterrestrial languages in it were all designed by those scientists, not ...... I made out of thin air" (to be continued). )
