End of July.

Howard and Lin Xinru got married.

Xu Jia looked at the newspaper in his hand and said in surprise: "Didn't I invite you?" Isn't your relationship with Howard not bad? ”

As far as he knew, Lao Hu, Shi Shi and her husband Thunderbolt Tiger had all gone.

"Of course I received it, but Lin Xinru didn't like it, so I didn't plan to go." Yang Mi said casually.

Anyway, this was said to Xu Jia, and there are no outsiders, so naturally there is no need to avoid anything.

In fact, artists in the circle have cooperated, and many relationships are limited to colleagues, which is completely different from private friendships.

For Lin Xinru, Xu Jia has never been cold.

Just based on the fact that she once targeted Zhou Jie, it can be seen that it is definitely not a worry-free master.

Besides, Zhou Jie is now cooperating with Jiaxing quite frequently.

"Tucao Conference" and "Mars Intelligence Agency" have been on several issues, this guy is upright and dares to say anything, but it has quite a show effect.

As for whether it can be broadcast, the scale is controlled by the program team.

"If you don't go, you can do it, you don't have to go back, and the media is sending a bunch of announcements randomly, it's not good for you to be oppressed or who is oppressed by you." Xu Jia said.

Yang Mi sneered, at this time, Yan Pressure was no longer fresh.

The first to come out of Fan Xiaoye's can always see the media, Fan Bingbing's red carpet is full of people.

Later, it was played to the extreme by all kinds of blanket stars, and now LeTV came out last year with a piece of love, and the press release was called a diligent.

The reputation is there, but the reputation in the circle is bad to the end.

Few people are happy to see such a product, mainly because LeTV lacks people, especially this kind of self-project training, which has to be in the palm of your hand.

So most people pinched their noses and endured it.

The real show has to wait until next year when Boss Jia runs away, and without the support of the owner, this little flower can be regarded as low-key.

After all, there are no resources for madness.

"Lorenzo and director Joe are back, why don't you go and see it? They may return to the United States after a while, after all, our special effects team and equipment are indeed not as good as Warner's. Yang Mi said.

Xu Jia nodded, it was time to go.

The special effects team and equipment are not something he can improve if he wants to.

The former takes time to cultivate relevant talents, and the latter is even more difficult, because of technical problems and the low end of the industry, it is difficult for him to buy it even if he spends a lot of money.

The reason why people are advanced is because there are enough crews with similar special effects.

To be precise, there is a market.

On the Huaxia side, the special effects of some crews have degraded to n years ago.

Do you dare to believe that the decisive battle of "Love Apartment 3" at the top of the Forbidden City is known as the peak of domestic TV series special effects?

In short, this improvement is not enough to rely on the efforts of Jiaxing alone.

The two went upstairs to the post-editing room.

Lorenzo and Joe were arguing, one blushing thicker than the other.

"All the focus is on this monster, whether it's Statham or Young, it's not as important as it, so I can't tolerate a stupid and strange giant animal in my film, and it's going to be a disaster, an existence that's scary at first glance, or it's just going to make our movie look fake." Joe roared loudly as he slapped the table.

On the contrary, Lorenzo seemed much calmer: "Joe, you have to understand that the film is not your work alone, we have budget constraints, you said that these seem light, and the amount of money that will be spent on the special effects will be tens of millions or even hundreds of millions of dollars, you know?" ”

No wonder there is a quarrel, one is the producer who is responsible for the overall including the budget, and the other is the director who is responsible for the quality and effect of the film.

It's too easy to get into arguments.

Just when Joe was about to compromise and solve it in a different way.

Xu Jia walked in and said in an unquestioning voice: "Just do what Joe says, we have spent enough money on this movie, and if necessary, I can continue to increase the budget." ”

If the megalodon in "Megalodon" becomes stupid and weird, that's a real disaster.

In the previous life, the success of "Megalodon" was 90% due to the fact that Megalodon was filmed scary enough.

Otherwise, how could Jason Statham, who was born in B-grade films, and Yang Mi, a strange actress from China, become a big hit in the North American film market?

"Of course, the movie can't only have monster elements, we also have to show the wonder of the underwater world, as well as the struggle between humans and beasts, and the warmth of family."

Xu Jia shrugged his shoulders, "After all, you know that our purpose in making this movie is definitely not to just let those audiences who like blood enter the cinema." ”

The limitation of B-grade movies is this, and he has plans to make this movie a family carnival.

It is difficult to support the box office of a movie by relying on one group alone.

"Wow, Xu, you know more about movies than I thought, and you know the North American market better, if every Chinese investor is as wise as you, I think they would have successfully entered Hollywood." Lorenzo opened his mouth exaggeratedly and flattered Xu Jia.

Then he paused and said the crux of the problem: "But what about Warner's side?" The board members weren't going to be willing to continue to give money out of the company's accounts, and in their opinion, it was their year-end dividends, and these damn guys were all vampires lying on top of the group. ”

It can be heard that Lorenzo has a lot of grievances against the directors of Warner Group.

Otherwise, it would not force him to stand on the same front as Xu Jia.

"It's okay, I'll inform the people at Warner, if they don't pay the money, we're willing to take it all, it's nothing more than taking a bigger risk, but we will also get higher returns." Xu Jia sneered.

Making movies is sometimes quite similar to Texas Hold'em, and not daring to follow it means losing all the games.

But if you continue to gamble, who knows if it will add more sunk costs?

But Xu Jia dared to be sure that Warner's side would not give up.

Because compared to losing all the games, what makes gamblers even more angry is that the opposite hand is small but wins.

"Joe, when you get back to the United States, you can start contacting the VFX team, according to your standards, and if Lorenzo can't decide here, you can call me."

"Thank you for your trust, I don't think I'll live up to it, and I'll ask the Scanline VFX team to design the dynamic movements of the megalodon, and they're good at designing complex fluid effects."

Director Qiao stood up and assured Xu Jia with gratitude on his face that this rare trust was very important to him, a little-known director.

After all, whether this movie can succeed or not is also related to his future career.

Xu Jia didn't know much about these special effects teams, but it didn't prevent him from knowing that this was a good opportunity to steal the master, so he said: "Then please bring some of our Jiaxing people with you, they act as helpers, although their ability may not be as good as the other party, but it will definitely reduce the pressure of work." ”

Qiao naturally knew Xu Jia's intentions, but he agreed without even thinking about it.

Anyway, it's the uncle who pays the money, what's wrong with the uncle's conditions?
