Five p.m.

After Fang Ziheng, Da Tiantian, and Song Ge finished talking, they took the elevator downstairs together.

This detailed discussion went very smoothly.

Wanda Pictures finally spent US$25 million to acquire a 15% share of Hengyu Media's science fiction film "Edge of Tomorrow" and a 30% share of the youth film "Dream Back to School".

At the same time, Da Tiantian will play the second female lead in "Edge of Tomorrow", Princess Jinyang in "Famous Four", and the lead female lead in "Back to School", a total of three roles.

"Dream Back to School" is the first youth idol movie launched by Hengyu this year, focusing on the market of students and young people.

The director has been decided, and Su Lun, a girl who has just joined Hengyu, will direct.

The investment in this movie is not large, less than 20 million.

After leaving the hotel, Fang Ziheng opened the door of the Audi A6, turned around and waved to the two of them, and said to Da Tiantian: "Hengyu will come to pick up the script in two days. Let's think about the role of Princess Jinyang first and play it well!"

"Don't worry, director, I will work hard!" Da Tiantian nodded with a smile, stepped forward and helped him close the car door.

The car started and sped onto the busy street.

Looking at the disappearing Audi, Da Tiantian took a breath and said to Song Ge: "Mr. Song, let's go back too."

"Okay, Miss Jing, I'll drive!"

After getting in the car.

Fang Ziheng slumped in the back seat, told the driver to go home, and then slowly closed his eyes to rest.

To be honest, he didn't expect Wanda to be so courageous!

25 million US dollars, a total of 170 million soft girl coins!

What a big dog!

Fang Ziheng doesn’t think it’s all due to Da Tiantian’s influence. It’s probably because Wanda wanted to borrow the “Edge of Tomorrow” boat to go to sea. The combination of the two led to such a high price!

This cooperation is a win-win situation. In addition to the theaters owned by China Film Group Corporation, Hengyu's four films will also be available in Wanda Cinemas after their release.

This year, Wanda Cinema Chain has grown very fast and has become one of the top ten cinema chains in the country.

As a new brand, Wanda Cinema Line naturally needs popular movies to attract traffic and secure customers.

Fang Ziheng is also happy to have a good relationship with Wanda. The promotion of the movie is inseparable from the support of the theaters.

.........

Go home, take a shower, and order takeout!

A person's life is so boring.

In the study, Fang Ziheng made a cup of coffee and browsed major entertainment websites leisurely.

The hot topic in the news is not today's audition, but the 3D special effects blockbuster "Avatar" that continues to be popular.

Ever since "Avatar" was released in mainland China, it has broken many records in an unrivaled manner.

It was released for 20 days and grossed nearly 900 million in box office!

The media went crazy and reported everywhere.

The audience went crazy and went to major forums to discuss it. It was even crazier than the craze for watching "Tang Detective".

There are only 11 IAX giant screens in the country, showing the show 24 hours a day, and the venues are full.

The remaining more than 800 medium-sized screens are similar. Every day's movie tickets are sold out the day before. Audiences wait in line and enter the screening hall one by one to watch.

Major Chinese film and television companies are also going crazy and starting new projects one after another.

The themes of the projects all have one thing in common!

3D!

3D!

Still 3D!

Several unknown special effects companies in the Mainland are experiencing heightened competition during this period, and their barriers to entry are about to be crushed by major film and television companies.

Tiangong Yicai received many orders, and they offered to invest tens of millions to make a 3D movie. He asked Xiao Yang how many months it would take Chang Hongsong to complete it, which made him dumbfounded.

In addition to domestically, "Avatar" also set off a box office storm in various places around the world.

In its first weekend alone, it topped the box office in dozens of countries and regions.

"Avatar" seems to have become a social phenomenon!

When young people gathered together to chat, they changed from talking about national affairs and entertainment stars to talking about movies.

The reason why Fang Ziheng plans to make "Edge of Tomorrow" into 3D is because he has no choice but to do it because it is the general trend.

The 3D era is here, if you don’t take pictures, others will!

Instead of having other film and television companies ruin the market with shoddy fake 3D movies, it would be better for him to take the lead and set a small benchmark.

In this way, one is true and the other is false, and the audience has a comparison, which will not only bring a word-of-mouth effect to "Edge of Tomorrow", but also inspire the audience to spontaneously boycott those bad 3D movies that cheat money.

3D movies are divided into real-shot 3D and converted 3D!

For real shooting, it is natural to use dual-track interactive cameras to synchronize focus and zoom with a gimbal. After special effects rendering in the later stage, a 3D stereoscopic effect is achieved.

Post-production conversion is different. It uses post-production special effects and 3D software to reconstruct a three-dimensional picture of the film that has been shot, and then projects this picture onto the 3D model prepared in advance.

Then it is shot with a machine to reproduce a real 3D movie.

In layman's terms, real-life photography is very troublesome, takes a long time, and costs a lot of money, but the effect is the best.

Transformation also takes a certain amount of time, and it also depends on the cost. The effect of a transformation costing 10 million is not the same as the effect of a transformation costing 5,000.

Just like "Avatar", in addition to using a lot of real shots, Cameron also used some conversions to 3D.

It's just that the conversion is very sophisticated and of a very high level, reaching 80% of the real-shot effects. The audience can hardly notice anything strange when watching the movie.

In one country, there are not many 3D real-life cameras in the world. It will be after "Avatar" hits the theaters that major equipment companies will take action to develop and produce dual-track interactive one-piece shooting machines.

"Edge of Tomorrow" is valued by China Film and Wanda, and its '3D production' accounts for a large part of the reason.

February 2, the dragon raises its head!

In a four-star hotel, Fang Ziheng met the three action directors recommended to him by China Film.

Cheng Xiaodong, Sang Lin, Wu Jing, and the main creative team of "Four Famous Catchers" also arrived at the same time.

It would take some time for the script to pass review, but Director Han said it was not a big problem and asked him to prepare for the start of filming first.

This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! In a meeting in the hotel, Fang Ziheng was sitting in the middle.

To his left, Zhang Guoli, Li Lianhua, Liu Qianqian, Deng Chao, and Huang Jiaozhu were lined up.

After that, there are several important supporting roles such as Da Tiantian, Lei Datou, Guo Jingfei, and Zhang Yi.

On the right side, sitting are Lin Feifei, Cheng Xiaodong, Sang Lin, Wu Jing, Wen Muye, Li Xiaoshu, and the heads of various departments of the crew.

After a few polite words.

Fang Ziheng knocked on the table, glanced around slowly, and said seriously: "Everyone, before filming starts, the preparations must be done. The actors study the script, practice horse riding, fighting moves, and the words and deeds of martial arts masters, etc.

In addition, props, shooting locations, shooting equipment, and scenery all need to be prepared in advance and carefully inspected to ensure safety."

"Director, don't worry, we will definitely make preliminary preparations."

As Fang Ziheng called the names one by one, the heads of each department of the crew stood up one after another to express their opinions.

There is nothing wrong with holding a meeting before starting work to unify your thinking and identify the person responsible.

After an explanation, he handed the conference room to Lin Feifei and went out with three action coaches.

Sister Lin is the producer and coordinates the entire crew. Before the filming of the movie starts, she is the leader!

In a double suite.

The four of them were smoking and chatting about some gossip topics.

Happy laughter could be heard in the room from time to time.

After getting to know each other, Fang Ziheng took out a stack of drawn martial arts illustrations from "The Four Famous Catchers" from his backpack and handed them to Cheng Xiaodong, Sang Lin, and Wu Jing respectively.

"Cheng Zhi, Sang Zhi, Brother Jing!"
Chapter completed!
