Chapter 249: Special Effects
"Fujiwara-sensei, you've worked hard." Kei Fujiwara had just walked into Mizumi Productions and was confronted by a somewhat balding director, who bent down to say hello.
"Yu Quan-san." Kei Fujiwara nodded, "How are you doing?"
"Thanks to you." The person named Yu Quan Jinming, a producer and director of the special effects department of Mizumi Productions, pushed his glasses at this time and said with a smile, "The ratings of "Naoki Hanzawa" are now overwhelming, congratulations to Fujiwara-sensei for winning the battle with the outer stage again."
"It's all a joint effort of my colleagues." Fujiwara Kei smiled while walking to the company with Yu Quan Jinming, Fujiwara Kei hadn't seen him for a long time, and I heard that he went to Matsuri Pictures to shoot a special effects movie a while ago. However, I heard that the film had limited budget and was crudely produced, and it would not be shown in the Grand Theater, but would only be sold as a videotape.
Now that the filming of that movie is complete, he is now back to Shuibo Production, and he has been busy with the company for a while, and it seems that he is forming a crew.
"Have you been busy with anything lately in Izumi-san?" Kei Fujiwara took his coffee and chatted with Yu Quan Jinming as he walked.
"Hey, what else can I do, shoot my monster." Yu Quan Jinming said with a smile, pointing his finger to the top and saying, "An urgent task was recently assigned to me to make a sequel to "Mechanical Monster Naga", and I am gathering a team recently. Alas, but then again, there is really a shortage of talent in the company right now, and it's really hard to find a group of people who really love special effects and have enough professional standards to shoot."
Fujiwara Kei didn't speak, and at this time, Yu Quan Jinming raised his head and glanced at Fujiwara Kei, and suddenly realized that he had lost his words, and quickly pursed his mouth.
In the past two years, the brain drain of Shuibo Productions has been relatively serious, and many people have complained about the president Uchida, thinking that he has not put his mind on running the company at all.
Therefore, Yu Quan Jinming's casual sentence of "the company's talent is withering" more or less vented his dissatisfaction with the president, and Fujiwara Kei did not pick up the stubble, which also made Yu Quan Jinming suddenly realize that he should not say such things to others.
In the workplace, every pair of ears is a radar, every mouth is a horn, and it is undoubtedly dangerous to complain about your boss in front of your colleagues.
At this time, Fujiwara Kei suddenly laughed: "That's right, Yu Quansan, there are indeed a lot of problems in the company now, and you have to pull up a team in this environment, it's hard for you."
"Those who eat this bowl of rice can only do their best......
As he spoke, Izumi raised his eyes and glanced at Kei Fujiwara. Fujiwara Kei seemed to be deliberately reassuring him, so he followed his words, of course, he may not have paid attention to this, and felt the same as himself.
But in either case, Keito Fujiwara is different from Imasaki Izumi, who is careful in everything he says, and when he talks about problems in the company, he doesn't even bother to lower the volume.
Also, Kei Fujiwara is now not to mention making in the water waves, even if it is in Fukuyamadai, it is also a sideways existence, what's wrong with your mouth? Even if President Uchida was at the scene and heard Kei Fujiwara say this, he had to pretend that he didn't hear anything.
And now that the whole water wave is made, no one is more suitable to say this than Kei Fujiwara. The situation of the company is not optimistic, but under the name of the company, the Tsukijiu team led by Kei Fujiwara is an invincible presence in the broadcasting industry.
….
It's like a high school where 90% of people can't go to college and a top talent, even if he scolds the street in front of the principal, the school leaders will feel particularly beautiful.
Thinking of this, Yu Quanjin smiled bitterly in his heart, it was really enviable...... This is Naoki Hanzawa in reality......
After separating from Yu Quan Jinming, Fujiwara Kei returned to the office but was a little puzzled, didn't he say that Shuibo Productions was about to be sold? Why is it that a new project is suddenly launched at this time? And it's also a popular special effects series like "Robot Monster Naga".
In this world, special effects films are also developing very hotly. The first large-scale application of Tokusatsu technology was during World War II, when many film companies responded to the government's national policy of producing films to glorify acts of aggression.
At that time, many film talents used special effects technology to shoot warring countries
The visual effects of the air battle scene with the theme are very realistic, and even the Pearl Harbor model made once deceived the Americans, so that the Americans after the war almost treated these people as war criminals.
After the end of the war, many filmmakers who were proficient in special effects technology no longer needed to shoot national focus films, so they began to think about new applications of special effects technology.
In '54, a piece of news caught the attention of these filmmakers: a fishing boat named Fukuryū Maru at that time was affected by the U.S. submarine hydrogen bomb test, and all 23 crew members on board died of atomic disease.
As the only country on earth that has been bombed by an atomic bomb, he has a special affection for this kind of large-scale nuclear weapon. But the feelings were mostly negative, and at the same time, rumors spread that the atomic bomb radiation would turn people into monsters.
In fact, at this time, there were already movies in the United States with giant monsters as a selling point, and a group of filmmakers in the book carried forward this idea, filmed the first monster movie, and also invented the holster special effects gameplay.
As soon as the movie was released, it directly caused a sensation in China, and the shock that this special film brought to the audience at that time was definitely no less than the visual shock brought to the audience when "Avatar" first came out, and even surpassed it. Since then, monster movies have become a famous cultural business card, and special effects have become one of the favorite film and television genres of many teenagers.
Shuibo production also started by shooting special effects films, and the most famous special effects TV series is the "Mechanical Monster Naga" series, the core of the story of this series is similar to Ultraman, but this series is also a monster on the side of justice. But according to the plot, it's a mechanical monster created by a genius scientist.,Controlled by the protagonist.,It's a bit like EVA.。
The last part of "Mechanical Monster Naga" came out four years ago, and it achieved good ratings at that time, but it didn't control the cost too well, resulting in a near loss, so it also made the series silent for four years.
And now President Uchida is interested in restarting the series. Could it be that the news that Shuibo Productions was going to be sold was fake news? Or is Uchida Kurami hoping to shoot a successful work that will increase the stock price of Mizumi Productions? Can he sell his shares for a high price?
Except for the last time Yui Mizuhara told Kei Fujiwara once, he hadn't heard of the imminent sale of his shares in Mizumi Productions anywhere else, so it was only a rumor now.
