Chapter 213: After the game
Hongqi workshop office.
The second sister, who is in charge of external affairs, used a trolley to transport a lot of scripts.
There are all kinds of texts, some in Huaxia and some in English.
Xu Fei squatted on the ground and picked up and browsed one by one.
Coming to Daze to make a movie must belong to science fiction.
The first book describes the story that takes place on the moon base, which is a bit petty.
The second book describes the space industry 30 years later, which is too boring.
The third book describes an alien invasion and lacks imagination.
The fourth book describes the human driving machine Three Kingdoms expedition to alien planets, can you afford to pay the copyright fee?
Book 5......
Xu Fei read them one by one and was very disappointed.
Today's Daze has American companies, German companies, central enterprises, private enterprises, and various government offices.
It can be said that if you have a good script, as long as you impress Director Xu, you need to invest in investment, personnel to have personnel, to have a venue, to have a post-production and post-production, and to review it.
It can even help you distribute in Europe and the United States, and get the theater chain.
Proper one-stop service.
But without a good script, shoot a bird?
Isn't this a waste of time?
Xu Fei waved his hand, "Let them come from and go back." ”
"It's all stuffed."
“……”
"Why don't you get the money back?"
"Actually, these scripts are quite good."
Xu Fei picked up the first Wen Eucalyptus again, and was silent for a long time, "Let the director come over, and I will personally moisten him." ”
"Okay."
In the past three quarters, the Osawa Industrial Complex has created a lot of foreign exchange.
Toys, automobiles, electrical appliances, agricultural and sideline products, hunting dogs, two batches of M8, many spare parts......
Roughly calculated, at least 30 billion US dollars.
But the money from the sale of toys is used to feed the Navy SEALs, the money from the sale of cars and M8s is used to purchase crude oil, and the money from dogs is used to buy United Defense.
And in order to purchase more crude oil, he also borrowed 10 billion US dollars.
As a result, the foreign exchange reserves of our own camp fell instead of rising, and even fell to the mid-nineties, with only three digits.
With such a shortage of foreign exchange, we must make crazy foreign exchange, otherwise how to purchase crude oil, how to introduce high-tech technology, and how to recruit senior talents?
In addition to 'making money' everywhere and encouraging many companies to go public in North America, the superiors also encouraged the film and television industry to go out as much as possible.
Although the country has not joined the WTO, many products cannot be exported, but there are no restrictions on films.
Therefore, making international blockbusters and impacting Haolaiwu has become the keynote.
The mechanical Daze Industrial Park, coupled with the super brand - Machinery Three Kingdoms, as well as the various production lines and various derivative products of the Daze Industrial Complex, is simply an excellent shooting base for science fiction blockbusters.
As a result, many directors, producers, investors, and entertainment companies all want to get in.
They also entrusted people who were familiar with Director Xu, such as Cheng Guang, Lao Shang, Director Liang of Development and Reform, and the old lady of Dongshan Supply and Marketing Council to help intercede.
However, in the millennium, several times in China, no one has ever made a serious science fiction film, let alone a so-called science fiction blockbuster.
Just like the famous directors who walked into the office, including the producers who often appeared on Huaxia Radio next to them, all of them were in their sixties, and the education they received was different from the current one, and the things they were exposed to when they were children were completely unrelated to science fiction.
If he gets a sci-fi script, can he imagine the scene? Can the plot be extended?
I'm afraid it's not full of Transformers and Bumpman.
Moreover, the domestic film market has determined that it must be 'small cost, big production', otherwise it will lose money.
The problem is that sci-fi films need to spend money on special effects.
is like a first-generation machine promotional film of the Three Kingdoms of Machinery, a grand promotional film, a destructive promotional film, a second-generation fighting version promotional video, just two or three minutes of footage, which is less than 5 million US dollars?
When it comes to the promotional video of the third-generation machine, the price of industrial light and magic is as high as 15 million US dollars!
Converted into red money, I am afraid that if it is not the box office of the year's hit movie, it will not be able to compare with the cost of special effects for three or two minutes.
Xu Fei dropped the script in his hand and looked up at the director and producer who belonged to the iron rice bowl.
"We're all our own people, so I won't beat around the bush."
"Director, you just give orders."
"Opening a base on the moon, the subject matter is very good, but I always hold back in the house...... When the audience comes to watch a sci-fi blockbuster, do you think they can get the excitement? ”
Producer: "Director, we also want to shoot the scene majestic, but we don't even have a timely footage now, so we can only use the four-pointed star airport as a long shot, and then switch to the interior to complete the shooting of the whole movie, which is currently the most cost-effective way to even do not need special effects." ”
"Tep Entertainment... No, it's called Tin Entertainment now, and I've made a few nonsensical sci-fi films before, have you seen it? ”
"I've seen it, Guan Gong vs. Bumpman, Lu Bu expeditions to Cybertron......"
"What do you think?"
"This ......"
"Just say."
"There is no main storyline, there is no plot to speak of, and it can even be said to be a mess."
"But the box office of each film is not less than 20 million Hong Kong dollars, and the Valkyrie of the Three Kingdoms even broke the box office record of Xiangjiang movies, what do you say?"
“……”
"What do young people nowadays, like me, like? I like sci-fi beyond imagination. ”
Xu Fei dragged a small blackboard, "The moon base, right?" In 2030, the Iron Sheet Company launched the Berlin launch vehicle, intending to build the first base on the moon, but in the process of piling, the computer suddenly detected a shock wave, and after repeated experiments, researchers found a shocking secret, the moon is hollow!
The TEP Business Alliance stole the news and launched the Boston spacecraft overnight to drop a ground-penetrating robot to the moon, and five seconds later, all the high-tech equipment was lost.
Just when the countries of the world were in shock, several large bags suddenly bulged up on the surface of the moon, and bunkers rose from the ground, and a phalanx composed of robots quickly assembled......
Spaceships, flying saucers, space battleships, densely packed, pointing directly at the home planet.
Humanity is at stake!
The joint meeting of the home planet called on all mankind to unite and release the suspicions of various capital groups, jointly launching mechanical exoskeletons, launching remote control board mechanisms, launching anti-gravity vehicles, and launching the prehistoric monster Kirov airship......
For a time, human civilization erupted with unimaginable power!
In the East, in West Asia, in Europe, in Ice Bear, in North America, in South America, hundreds of millions of human vanguards, ready to go!
Part 1, the end. ”
“……”
"How's my story?"
“……”
"Of course, the movie must have a plot, a protagonist, a supporting role, a heroine's feet, and the leader of the enemy army, etc., as well as love, love, hatred, betrayal, and conspiracy, including why the moon is hollow...... I'll go back and send an essay to the Department of Literature and Literature of TEP Vocational and Technical College, and I can get it in a week at most. ”
The director wiped the cold sweat from his head, "Director, your story is good, but we can't shoot it." ”
"How?"
"There are too many areas involved, which will inevitably increase the cost of location and extend the filming cycle, and there are so many legions, so many sci-fi weapons...... How much does it cost to pay for special effects and models? ”
When Xu Fei heard this, he took out the globe and listed the scenes on the paper, "The East is shooting in Daze, I will find an acquaintance in West Asia, the European region is shooting in Berlin, the ice bear is shooting in a certain oil field, North America is shooting in Boston, and South America is shooting in Jamaica.
As for the Legion......
Wait until winter, first build a moon base in the northwest corner of Daze, and cover it with models, that is, the Moon Army.
And the model is even simpler, make the toy out in advance, all the metal style, swing to that side, it is a phalanx, how many or how many, shoot it, slightly adjust it in the later stage, you can make a super shocking shot......
And, with the connections of the factory director.
What is the head of the country, what is the head of the capital group, we are all acting in real colors. ”
“……”
"Don't believe it, when the time comes, let's go to the headquarters of the home planet joint conference to shoot the scene, and then shoot a fight scene in the Empire State Building, then switch to Berlin, and then transfer to London......"
When Xu Fei said this, he paused slightly, "In other words, everything is used by the director of the factory, what else do you want you to do?" ”
Director: "Director, I am familiar with the work on the set, and I can ensure the quality of the shooting. ”
"Okay, you stay."
Producer: "Director, I'm familiar with the production process......
"Okay, you stay."
Director: "But, the investor? ”
"Kick it, it's like I'm short of money."
Producer: "Actors? ”
"We have so many strong engineers, and so many North American bases......"
"North American base?!"
"You two know too much."
“……”
Half an hour later.
The first part of "The Earth Precarious" is officially established and is expected to be released at the end of the year.
The iron sheet company bears all the costs, and the production costs will be disclosed later.
Xu Fei asked the secretary to lead the director and producer to go through the entry procedures, and when the other party left, he picked up other scripts and flipped through them.
Then I was stunned to change the space industry and alien invasion to the second part of 'Earth Crisis', various air battles.
changed the expedition to the alien star to the third part of the 'Earth Crisis', digging out the truth about the moon's hollowness.
Then the directors and producers who compiled the three scripts were recruited.
Forget about the screenwriter, screenwriter Xu has watched a lot of films, and some of them are classic shots.
As for the other scripts......
Director Xu is busy with affairs, so he has to watch slowly.
Next.
Pop arrives in Osawa.
Xu Fei saw his messy hairstyle, and suddenly remembered that the third secretary went to the countryside and brought back a few spring corns by the way, and hurriedly rummaged through the refrigerator, found it, and then gave the ears of corn a partiality.
Pope: "......"
"Don't go, I didn't mean to."
"You hurt me."
"I just think it's too similar."
"Actually, I feel quite similar, maybe I can endorse corn."
"Then I suggest you go to Texas, the corn over there is about to be harvested, and my family has sold a lot of oversized harvesters recently."
"Wouldn't it be better for me to endorse your harvester?"
"It's a great honor."
Xu Fei said, taking out the various data reports of the Kirov airship, "Can you get the port of Niuyou?" ”
"No problem, Wall Street is not one, there are many people who are willing to cooperate with 'Renip Fly' to speculate in stocks, and they all believe that the Kirov airship belongs to ships."
"How much PR money was spent?"
"$43 million."
"Plus the 200 million US dollars I borrowed from you before, I will give you 250 million."
"Don't worry, I'm not short of money for the time being."
"Okay, I'm short of money here, so lend me another $200 million."
“……”
"By the way, I'm going to make a movie, and the subject matter is like this......"
"Oh! Damn, such a great sci-fi blockbuster, why don't you ask me to be the starring actor? ”
"You're going to be a trick at best."
"No, your corn hurt me...... Xu, I have a great suggestion. ”
"Say."
"I'm the North American Executive!"
"What do you want Xiaobu to do?"
"He's campaigning and doesn't have time to make a movie."
"Okay, you appeared in the second part, and the first part is still Xiaobu."
"Yes!"
Three movies, three points in time, no one can be sure who will be the director of North America in the future.
Let Pop play, let's count it as a sci-fi prediction.
Xu Fei contacted the crew and settled the matter.
After chatting with Pop for a long time, the latter collected the documents for the Kirov 1 cruise ship to dock at the port of Niyo, and followed Lou Xiaohu to the airport to experience the romance of the airship.
According to the plan, after arriving at the mud, cruise ship No. 1 will transfer to Boston, load passengers, and stay at the Empire State Building for half an hour to attract tourists before heading to the mud.
Then turn back to the button, dock at the Empire State Building, load the passengers who have already snapped up the tickets, and continue to the mud.
Pupu does not need to pay the 'introduction fee' to the iron sheet company, and the iron sheet company does not need to pay the 'berthing fee' to the pulp, in general: win-win cooperation.
Of course, the other party came to Daze, not for this thing.
TEP has split up, and many businesses have been separated and need to be reconnected.
Xu Fei checked the progress of the separation, looked at the time, ran to the cafeteria for a meal, and felt that after the rectification, the meal had indeed improved.
After that, I went back to the office, left and right, and opened the web page to take a look.
With the Smash Bros. World Championship over, there have been more reports on the subject, not less.
Some media revealed the backgrounds of the top 10 participants.
Some media announced the whereabouts of the billion-dollar prize money.
Some media focus on the study of third-generation aircraft.
There are also media who accuse the iron sheet company of operating in the dark and questioning the results of the game.
Of course, it's all media play.
It's the same old saying: no controversy, no hot discussion.
Xu Fei even knew that the 10 posts at the top of the Whoosh Fox forum, including some high-click brain-dead comments, were all directed and acted by internal employees.
Some even dared to scold the factory director.
"Isn't that nonsense?"
Xu Fei contacted the operator of Whoosh Fox, "Give you half a day to adjust the time." ”
"Factory director, let's not do it, people do it, now it's the number of clicks and the time to stay on the page, we don't have a hot discussion, but they do, whether it's a scolding war, or popular science, the more netizens type, the longer the stay, for a long time, people all go to their side."
"That can't make a miasma, you can rectify it first."
"Okay."
Evening.
Salary waves, easy nets, were interviewed.
Subsequently, it was ordered to rectify, suspended operations for two weeks, and fined 500,000 yuan.
Zhang Chaoyang, who teaches at TEP Vocational College, called and asked curiously: "What did you receive first?" ”
"No, I proposed it."
“……”
"Teach with peace of mind, you don't understand business operations."
“……”
Xu Fei has been in contact with Zhang Chaoyang for so long, and gradually understands why the other party gave up what he learned and went to business.
For example, the experimental methods of condensed matter physics include self-service solvent method, chemical vapor phase transport, optical float method, high-pressure synthesis method, molecular beam epitaxial MBE, pulsed laser deposition PLD, and atomic layer precipitation ALD.
To accomplish the above methods, it is necessary to have angle-resolved photoelectron spectroscopy ARPES, scanning tunneling microscope (STM), electron beam exposure (STM), electron beam exposure (electron beam exposure instrument), lithography machine, development exposure wet and dry description equipment, etc.
Due to the influence of the 'arrangement' mechanism, there are no such things in the country.
Therefore, there are only two condensed matter experts in China, who are about the same age as Zhang Chaoyang, who are currently mainly doing theory, and they are also teaching in daily life.
Think about it from the inside, if Director Xu was admitted to the Department of Physics of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, got a doctorate diploma in high-energy physics, ran back to China in high spirits, and decided to engage in scientific research and strengthen the motherland, but was stunned to find that it was difficult for a good woman to cook without rice, and what she learned was useless, so she could only teach and be a teacher, what should I do?
Let's go and make money first......
"However, then again, the high-energy physics we chose seems to be even worse."
"The scientific and technological equipment that people need, as long as there is foreign exchange and a way, they will definitely be able to get it, and the cost of the test is not high."
"And what we need are super projects, what kind of large particle collider, what kind of large astronomical observation platform, what kind of laser interferometer gravitational wave observatory, what kind of supercomputer ......."
Xu Fei was thinking crankily while dealing with the affairs of various factories.
Wait until evening, walk out of the office, and look up at the sky.
Ten minutes later.
Second sister: "What are you doing?" ”
"Do you feel gravity?"
"Nope."
"Fool, the reason why you are standing on your home planet is because of gravity."
"Isn't it because of gravity?"
"There is no so-called gravity in the universe, everything is just the mass of the object at fault, the greater the mass, the greater the gravitational force, so we will stand here."
"You don't have a fever, do you?"
"I think I might be sick in the head."
"Go home and sleep, don't read the textbook tomorrow."
"Okay second sister."
Next.
Early in the morning, the mechanical enthusiasts who were stranded in Daze Industrial Park and experienced the third-generation aircraft suddenly let out bursts of exclamations.
Xu Fei was so noisy that he couldn't sleep, picked up his mobile phone and looked at the missed calls of more than a dozen secretary groups.
Contact the reliable secretary first.
"Crooked, what's wrong?"
"Factory director, look, the shark is deflated!"
"Huh?"
Xu Fei walked to the back balcony and looked at the north of Daze.
I saw that the Kirov airship in the shape of a big shark turned into a flat thing at this moment, dragging the gondola below, and sliding quickly 100 meters above the ground.
And the cheers, not only from the ground, but also from the gondola passengers, the screams are even more than the roller coaster.
[Kirov Airship 3: Ground effect flight mode has been enabled, maximum flight altitude 110 meters, maximum flight speed 593 km/h......]
"It's no wonder that once you activate the ground effect flight mode, you need to overhaul it once."
"It's all deflated, how can it be lifted into the air?"
Xu Fei hung up the phone and contacted Malaysia, asking the other party not to play tricks and quickly send the workers to the mud.
It's now the 11th, and there are only 4 days left before the opening ceremony of the Olympics.
Kirov 1,000 tons of capacity, with scientific and technological support, the data rose by 20%.
Based on the maximum weight of each person, 200 catties, 1200 tons......
Even if you take a small Mazha en masse, three Kirov airships will have to run back and forth dozens of times.
Xu Fei got dressed and planned to go back to the office to study and study the arrangements for watching the Olympics together, but walked into the workshop, but saw a black-haired and blue-eyed foreigner, sitting in the living room with several Renault executives, waiting.
"Zidane?!"
