ps:
The update time is too late, I am ashamed. It is indeed time to save some manuscripts this weekend. First, it is for the update time, and second, it is for the preparations for the New Year's Eve and the Spring Festival that are getting better and better...
The warm sunlight crosses the floor-to-ceiling windows and falls into the wide hall.
Ye Sumang was lying on a recliner while leaning against the huge floor-to-ceiling window, quietly reading the newspaper. Liu Yifei, who was struggling with a juicer in the kitchen, was still struggling with the question of whether to squeeze oranges or peaches.
"The stones are shocking, the special effects of "Painted Skin" are top in the world!"
This is the title of the newspaper in Ye Sumang's hand, and it is also a relatively accurate article that describes the special effects in "Painted Skin".
"It is said that domestic special effects are many years different from foreign countries. The domestic special effects are unsightly. At first, I had the same idea, but since I watched "Painted Skin" last night, my impression of domestic special effects has undergone earth-shaking changes.
Special effects, as the name suggests, are to present the effects that we cannot shoot with special software. The special effects in the Xianxia films we have seen in the past are basically simple light effects. Even if they involve landscape collapses, ground breaks, birds, beasts, insects, fish and other scenes, due to the limitations of their own technology, the physical algorithms and complex physical changes often show things that are not satisfactory.
It’s not the fault of these special effects companies. I carefully understood the difficulties.
Special effects companies are not a highly profitable project, both at home and abroad, and their labor costs are high. Anyone who participates in the special effects team must be high-end technical talents. The treatment of such people is often very high-end. At the same time, the special effects companies invest very much in R&D. Only with huge funds as reserve forces can the special effects team develop continuously.
Moreover, the technology in this field is very fast, and often a special-effect software that has just been formed is likely to be surpassed by the other software after less than a year of use. At this time, you must choose to upgrade, which will be an investment cost. Of course, you can also not choose to invest, but the result will inevitably be backward.
This is also the reason why domestic special effects companies cannot develop for a long time.
The high unemployment rate in this industry has led to a serious shortage of special effects personnel, and the huge financial pressure has made it difficult for several special effects companies to develop sustainably. Those companies that are rumored to be very powerful, such as Xiantao Digital, Wankuan, etc., are actually software that foreign countries have eliminated for several years.
Although it is quite good in China, the gap will be very obvious when compared with the special effects produced by top software.
But even in such a harsh environment, there are still people who have hope for special effects, and this person is director Ye Sumang.
According to the information, Ye Sumang acquired the Phantom Special Effects Team a few years ago. What he did was to invest money continuously without paying any returns. It was also because of this support that the Phantom Special Effects Team had the best development environment and continuously absorbed excellent special effect technologies at home and abroad. It made remarkable progress.
You can take a look at the train that "Deep Sea" directed by Tsui Hark, which made the audience unable to tell the difference between real and fake in last year's "The Grandmaster", and finally go to the cinema to watch "Painted Skin". The progress in this is very obvious.
Actually, when I first walked into the theater, I didn’t expect "Painted Skin" to really give me such a shocking feeling. Every hair of the Jiuxiao Cloud Fox is so exquisite, the growth of grass, the outer skin of trees, the sunshine, shadows, and the fluctuations of water flow...
In "Painted Skin", the Phantom Special Effects team has created a virtual but real world for us...
I would never have thought that domestic special effects can really reach this level. Even under close-ups, even the patterns on the plants and trees are displayed so naturally, I can announce it loudly. This is the world's top special effects, and the Phantom Special Effects team is also the world's top special effects team..."
The reason why Ye Sumang likes this article is because it analyzes it well and it is really difficult to do this industry. The Phantom Special Effects Team is probably the only branch in the company that has no profit and still makes money everywhere.
The Ministry of Finance even suggested that Ye Sumang directly ban this department more than once, but all of them were rejected by Ye Sumang.
Perhaps there is indeed a lot of investment at present, and there may be more in the future, but Ye Sumang firmly believes that only the technology in his own hands is the most real. Indeed, through the report of the Ministry of Finance, the money invested in the Phantom team can shoot more than ten works with a quality difference from "Painted Skin". However, the Ministry of Finance did not consider that what we need is often not the work itself, but the experience learned from filming this work.
Especially now that technology is developing rapidly, mastering advanced technology may not be a bad thing. Although it has invested a lot, it has also gained a lot, and the balance between investment and income is also shrinking...
"Su Mang, the juice is squeezed!!!" Just as Ye Su Mang was about to read this article again, Liu Yifei walked to Ye Su Mang with two glasses of juice on a tray with a bright smile on her face.
It turned out that the girl didn't make up her mind in the end, and squeezed a cup of orange and peaches.
"You choose first."
"Orange juice……"
"But I really want to drink orange juice, too." The girl pouted and looked at the orange juice with greed.
"Then let's have peach juice." Ye Sumang changed his attention when he heard the girl's words, and raised his hand.
But after waiting for a long time, the girl didn't hand over the juice.
In confusion, Ye Sumang looked up and found that Liu Yifei's eyes were still floating. Obviously, she was still struggling to choose the one, and she couldn't help but feel happy.
"You've all been drunk." Ye Sumang put down the newspaper and touched Liu Yifei's head with a smile.
However, the girl shook her head firmly and handed the orange juice to Ye Sumang's hand.
"Remember, if you drink half of it, my peach juice will be left for you." Liu Yifei blinked her phoenix eyes and instructed.
Ye Sumang was stunned at first, then nodded. If Liu Xiaoli was present and heard the girl's words, she would definitely not be able to help but nag.
You should know that in Liu Xiaoli's impression, Liu Yifei is definitely the kind of child who has a vigilant obsession with cleanliness. Even if his relatives are like this, he will not share the same pair of chopsticks with Liu Xiaoli, nor will he use the same bowl. Even before dinner, even if Liu Xiaoli has already washed the bowl and handed it to Liu Yifei's hand, the girl must rinse it with water again.
But at this moment, she actually made the request to drink a cup together. Obviously, for Ye Sumang, her "cleanness obsession" has been cured without any medicine. It can even be said that Liu Yifei, who has a serious mental obsession, is completely unprepared for Ye Sumang. This may be the only person in Liu Yifei's life to take off her defense.
The two of them enjoyed the juice together. Although the sour orange juice and sweet peach juice were a bit strange, the proportion of the girl mixing the juice seemed to be a little wrong. The orange juice was too thick, the milk was added, the peach juice was too light, and the water was added, but these reasons could not disturb the two people's interest.
While drinking juice, Liu Yifei seemed unintentional from a pile of newspapers, but in fact she deliberately found a few newspapers. Ye Sumang just glanced at him and knew that these were all good words from Liu Yifei.
However, I have to say that this time, Xiao Wei, starring Liu Yifei, did capture the hearts of countless audiences.
In the past, Liu Yifei had the nickname of "Goddess of Ancient Costume", but before that it was mostly a kind of praise, but no one took it seriously. However, after Liu Yifei played the role of "Nine-Dao Yunhu", this title was really implemented on her head.
In the large-scale voting event held by the most authoritative portal in China, in the ranking of the most suitable women's costumes, Liu Yifei occupies the top spot with an absolute advantage of more than 50% of the total votes.
You should know that this voting and selection activity has selected 50 outstanding and popular domestic female artists to participate in the selection, among which some top stars are not included, but Liu Yifei is defeated by her popularity at this time. This shows how popular the character "Xiao Wei" brings to Liu Yifei.
Sometimes, a role can often make an artist, such as the "Miss Gong Er" played by Zhou Xun. Within this year, she has won the best actresses at four A-level international film festivals, including Best Actress in the Asia Pacific Film Festival and Best Actress Award, and Sun Yan, the big star she played in "If Love", these are all labels that will become the actor's lifelong life.
The last time Liu Yifei played the role of the junior sister in "The Grandmaster" was able to calculate the first half, and the one who really achieved her was the Jiuxiao Yunhu Xiaowei in "Painted Skin".
Xiao Wei's charm, Xiao Wei's holiness, Xiao Wei's sinisterness, Xiao Wei's infatuation, and even the implicit simplicity in Xiao Wei's heart...
Such a complex character personality has created a very charming character. Some media even say that the Jiuxiao Yunhu played by Liu Yifei is the most outstanding Jiutailed Fox in China's film and television. This evaluation is not bad.
"Look at this article, after five years of transformation, the little girl finally becomes a goddess... and this article, the most beautiful Nine Sky Cloud Fox, Liu Yifei's acting career has reached a new level, by the way, there is also this article..."
The girl found out the reports for Ye Sumang without any idleness and read the words she liked in aloud. Ye Sumang looked at the joy in the girl's eyes, but she didn't know the girl's little thoughts. Her performance at this moment was just like those children who wanted to get encouragement from their parents after getting full marks when they were young. Ye Sumang listened for a while and then praised them. These words reached Liu Yifei's ears, and the girl laughed out loud on the spot.
Sometimes happiness and satisfaction are so simple.
Just when Liu Yifei was about to pick another newspaper to praise him and read it to Ye Sumang, the phone number on the table suddenly rang...
