Before Lin Mu finished speaking, the reporters and guests below were shocked by Lin Mu's words.
"I've been thinking about it since 2002?"
"Biology, physics, linguists are also invited??"
The scene was chaotic......
Someone couldn't help but stand up and ask: "May I ask Director Wang, this movie really invited ......"
Before he finished speaking, the other reporters also stood up and asked nonsense, and the order just now was suddenly broken.
"Everyone, be quiet! Be still!! Lin Muxu pressed his hand, and after ten seconds, he finally calmed their emotions.
"You don't have to be so anxious, because there is still a lot of time, and the problems will be ...... one by one" Lin Mu just deliberately wanted to make the scene chaotic.
After seeing that the scene was quiet, Lin Mu continued: "Back to the question just now, the special effects production time of "Avatar" began in early 2011, and when the production started in August, the progress of special effects production had been completed by a quarter. So the real production time of "Avatar" is as long as 22 months, which is longer than the production time of "The Lord of the Rings" and "Transformers", so there will be no possibility of cutting corners? ”
I see~~
Now everyone understands!
Greg gets it too!!
He was the assistant director of "Harry Potter" back then, and he was also sent here by the company today, when he heard Lin Mu's words, he suddenly thought that when they were filming "Harry Potter", he originally thought that the short production time of "Transformers" could not pose a threat to "Harry Potter", only "The Lord of the Rings" could threaten "Harry Potter". And the result? At the time of its release, "Transformers" was released even faster than "Harry Potter!!
At that time, "Harry Potter" Greg and the rest of the crew suddenly Spartan ~~~~
"I see!! It's so obscene!! Greg looked at the woods bitterly.
Another reporter was selected by the lottery, and stood up with excitement and asked Lin Mu: "Just now you said that you invited well-known biological, physicist, and linguist at home and abroad, who are the specifics?" ”
Originally, the reporter had already typed the draft of the question, but now I feel that this question is a little more gimmicky, so I simply asked this question.
"Biologists include Professors Justin, Bazel, Feige, and Wang Zhiming, physicists include Professors Patrick, Jean Ralph, Cyril, and Li Rongmao, and linguists include Professors Frankmore, Gerle, Bois, and Liu Yongyu......"
Every time Lin Mu said a name, it would cause many people to exclaim.
"Professor Justin is the most famous biologist in Britain......"
"Professor Flamemore was invited to ...... too"
"Is this true? It's unbelievable!! ”
There was a lot of discussion on the spot, and the reporters hurriedly wrote down these names, and then quickly transmitted them back to China, so that they could quickly send someone to interview.
Time continues to pass bit by bit, more and more reporters are selected to ask questions, and the front and back scenes of "Avatar" and some film materials are also gradually displayed in front of reporters and guests after asking questions one by one.
The thirty-first reporter: "Can you tell us more about the specific plot of "Avatar"?" ”
"To put it simply, this is a film in which an earth's energy company finds a new energy planet, then colonizes and plunders the planet and then encounters resistance, but this movie is not simply colonization and rebellion. There are also different things, please see the trailer for the afternoon screening. When it comes to the plot, Lin Mu is reluctant to reveal too much, which makes the reporters very helpless.
The thirty-second reporter who was drawn by lottery was a Chinese reporter, who stood up and asked Lin Mu: "In addition to the ordinary 3D format of "Avatar", there is also IMAX-3D format, I want to ask, at present, in addition to the New Orleans World Expo, there seems to be no other IMAX theater, right?" So where do I put the IMAX-3D format movie to be screened? ”
This question immediately caused a stir at the scene.
"That's right! How did you think of this question now? ”
"If you don't have an IMAX theater, how can you put it in IMAX format?"
"That's stupid, isn't it?"
Some are already gloating. What about IAMX? If you don't have a theater, you can only play 3D. No matter how good the effect is, it's a fart.
The press conference scene was chaotic again.
"Quiet! Be quiet! After waiting for the scene to calm down for a while, Lin Mu said: "The IMAX Cinema has already been built, but you don't know it. ”
As soon as Lin Mu's words came out, the scene that had finally quieted down was chaotic again!!
How can it be? …… How so? …… We didn't even know?
"Does the United States have??"
"What about the EU? How many?? ”
"Do we have one in Japan?"
Lin Mu said nothing. Directly ask the staff to transfer the data to the display screen. Soon a list of lists appeared in front of the guests. "The IMAX Cinema began to be set up in the first half of 2011. Hope Film and Television spent $2 billion to acquire nearly 90 movie theaters around the world, and unified it as an international cinema chain. It then took nearly a year to gradually renovate these theaters. In these cities, there will be a movie theater with an IAMX theater. ”
A person looks at the list. Unconsciously read it out: "New York, Washington, Los Angeles, Chicago, Houston, Philadelphia, ......"
"Wow, there's a lot of America!"
"I saw Sydney! Haha, Australia has it! An Australian journalist exclaimed.
"I see New Delhi, India has it!!" Indian journalists shouted excitedly.
"There's one in Tokyo, Japan!" Japanese journalists were also overjoyed.
"Manila, the capital of the Philippines!"
"Moscow, Russia has it!"
"London, Paris, Berlin, Amsterdam...... There are also a lot of ...... in the EU"
"Guys, do you see Malaysia? Help to find ......"
"Why is there no Greater Vietnam?? No, I want to complain!! ”
Many journalists see their cities on the list, and for some reason they feel an indescribable sense of excitement. And when I saw that reporters from other countries tried hard to find the city in their own country, my heart was as cool as eating ice cream on a hot day!!
There is a kind of happiness called the pain of someone else's house!
Journalists apparently understand this deeply.
And those journalists who did not find their own cities are not happy, seriously unhappy! It feels like I've been insulted! Looking at those elated reporters again, I was even more unhappy in my heart: "When I go back, I must sing "Avatar" well!" Why doesn't our country have !! ”
After five minutes, the questioning process began......
The angry Vietnamese reporter was lucky enough to be drawn and stood up and asked the question very unhappily: "May I ask if the hope film and television group can support us to build our own IMAX cinema?" Also, Why is there no IMAX cinema in Vietnam? ”
Lin Mu replied: "You can undertake the construction of IAMX cinema, and the specific cooperation matters can be directly negotiated with Ketuo Group." As for why some countries don't have IMAX theaters, because we have limited energy right now, our goal is to try to get closer to the big cities with large populations and high box office contributions. ”
This explanation finally made Vietnamese journalists a little more comfortable.
Lin Mu saw that he had almost solved the problem, so he stopped the interview and gave the opportunity to the other main creators.
Reporters began to turn their interview questions to some interesting stories from the filming of the film, as well as some celebrity gossip......
"You became the protagonist of this movie, what is there to say?"
"Excuse me, how did you, as a second-tier Hollywood actor, come to the crew of "Avatar"?"
"I heard that all the filming of "Avatar" was done in Zhangjiajie, right?"
At 11:40, when the interview session of the press conference was almost over, a reporter finally asked a different question: "May I ask what other investments did Hope Film and Television make in addition to the construction of theaters with the more than 4 billion US dollars loaned?" ”
However, Lin Mu, who has always been easy to speak, said directly this time: "Trade secrets, no comment!" ”
At 12:00, the interview session officially ended.
Lin Mu took the microphone and said to the guests: "At noon, the Hope Building has prepared a sumptuous buffet, and everyone can enjoy it to their heart's content." And at 15:00 in the afternoon, you can come and watch the 5-minute three-part trailer of "Avatar", which will not only have beautiful scenery, but also some plots. In the evening, a cocktail party will be held in the clubhouse, and everyone is welcome to come and participate. ”
At about 2 o'clock in the afternoon, the reporters and guests who had rested and finished work returned to the Hope Building again, and the morning interview had given them a little bit of information about "Avatar", and now they couldn't wait to see the trailer.
There are many people who have this idea, and many people have come to the only renovated IMAX-3D theater in the Hope Building under the guidance of the waiter, which is the luxury configuration provided by Ketuo Group, and the audio and screen are the world's top.
There are 520 seats in the theater, and all of them were filled in less than 10 minutes, and there are still 20 minutes until 3:00, which shows the enthusiasm of these guests.
After hearing that the theater was already full, the guests who came immediately wailed and shouted: "Why is it full so quickly!" ”
Lin Mu heard that the screening hall was already full, so he simply ordered the staff to start showing the trailer.
The first trailer soon begins, with all the guests sitting in 3D glasses.
On the big screen, a person's eyes opened.
"You're Jack......"
The camera changes to a young man with messy hair and an expressionless face sitting in a wheelchair, rolling wheels with his hands on his hands and walking in a base......
"I'm going to talk to you about a new life in the new world......"
In the starry sky, a huge planet stretches across the universe, which is very beautiful, and in addition to that, there is also a large space station......
"You're going to make a makeover......"
A spaceship flew out of the space station, into one of the planets, through the fog, and above an endless forest...... Suspended mountains, waterfalls, countless flying dragons soaring, giant trees standing, and giant beasts are rampant......
"Ladies and gentlemen, you are now in Pandora!"
The protagonist sits in a helicopter and looks out the window at this magical and beautiful world......
IMAX-3D Movie Screen......
The protagonist pushes his wheelchair out of the ship and enters a military base where soldiers are bustling with soldiers, and in another part of the military base, a general is giving a speech to the other soldiers: "On the other side of the wall, there are indigenous Na'vi ......"
The camera changes, and on the magnificent peaks, stones, and giant trees, tall and slender blue Na'vi people climb, jump, and run on the ground......
"It's hard to kill them......"
A floating stone appeared on the screen, spinning ......
"This kind of stone is worth 200 million yuan per kilogram, and the Na'vi village happens to be located in the richest place in the minerals......
"Will they move?"
"I'm telling you, they'll move!"
"What if you don't move? We're wasting our time......"
"I like this kid......"
With the dialogue of the headquarters, all the guests present knew the general plot of this movie.
"Sure enough, humans are fighting aliens, but can aliens compete with human aircraft and cannons? I guess it's enough to choke. ”
"You can't escape this framework, it's boring, if that's all there is, then the movie will be monotonous. It's a good movie and shouldn't be missed. ”
But that's all they know......
The trailer continues......
The camera cuts to another indoor location, where the protagonist pushes his wheelchair to a large incubator with a Na'vi body that he has just seen.
"Avatar is bred with human and Na'vi genes......"
On the screen, scientists are gradually cultivating a mature avatar body through a series of means......
"Looks like you."
"This is your Avatar ......"
The protagonist then reclines down in a crate......
"Relax, no distractions, just ......"
The main character, Jack, closes his eyes, after the light of his mind passes through a tunnel. Opening his eyes and reaching out his hand, Jack found himself a different person......
"Welcome to your new body, Jack."
Then. There was finally an exclamation in the theater.
"That's what happened!"
"So that's what Avatar meant......"
"But why is this Avatar the main character? The genes he provides? But why doesn't the protagonist know anything about it? ”
Soon they shut up, though. Because the trailer is important, let's watch the trailer first.
"Jack. Your mission is simple, I need you to use your Avatar to join the Na'vi people, gain their trust, and then get what I want......" (To be continued.) )
