Another World Under My Pen

Unsurprisingly Chen Cheng, the American side quickly reached an agreement.

Shakelu Pictures will invest 60 million US dollars to collaborate with Lao Bai on this "The Matrix", but the other party insists that an American should be the director, and Wei Xiaolin can only be an assistant director if he wants...

"No problem, I agree!"

What surprised Sun Peng was that Wei Xiaolin agreed to this condition without hesitation.

"why?"

Regarding Wei Xiaolin's answer, Sun Peng asked with a puzzled smile: "Don't forget, I promised to write you a script and let you be the director... Hey, why did you agree to be an assistant director again?"

"Cut, how does a small-cost director compare with a big production assistant director?"

Seeing Sun Peng's unexpected look, Wei Xiaolin waved his hand disdainfully.

But after a while, his expression became serious: "Xiaopeng, I understand what you mean, but I have decided not to touch ancient costume films in a short time, and... to be honest, I'll treat you The script is really interesting!"

"This……"

Hearing what Wei Xiaolin said, Sun Peng's expression hesitated.

"Haha, don't worry!"

Looking at the embarrassed look of Sun Peng, Wei Xiaolin patted him on the shoulder and laughed: "I am self-aware. I am afraid that I am not qualified to be a director. It is better to learn from the Americans. One study! Hehe, but buddy is not bad at first, this time after filming "The Matrix"..."

"Don't worry, the script will definitely be waiting for you then!"

With a smile, Sun Peng finally understood what the other party meant.

It seems that Wei Xiaolin is truly aware of the decline of costume films. And after cooperating with Sun Peng in two movies and a TV series, he was really not satisfied with Xiao Da Xiao Nao and became ambitious!

"Ok!"

As the two reached a tacit understanding, Sun Peng nodded and said: "That's right, after my second sister returns from the United States, you will accompany him to several film companies!"

"……Row!"

After a moment of indulgence, Wei Xiaolin nodded and said, "Domestic film companies have to get one. After all, hairstyle issues still need to be considered... Xiaopeng, what do you think of Lotus Pictures?"

"Lotus? Why not consider the Forbidden City?"

In comparison, Sun Peng still feels that the Forbidden City Film Industry is more comfortable working together.

After shaking his head, Wei Xiaolin said with a smile: "The Forbidden City is not good, their strength is still a little weaker, and just a "Hurricane Rescue 2" is enough for them to toss. For such a blockbuster, it is still a giant like Lotus. It’s more reliable, the distribution capability is not on the same level!"

After nodding, Sun Peng naturally agreed: "Okay, you can figure it out, as long as they are willing to pay, you know that is a lot of money! Haha, Americans are only willing to spend 60 million US dollars. I estimate that the whole cost will be at least one hundred and twenty-three million, so if Lotus Pictures also take 60 million... not easy!"

For him, as long as the film can be made, it doesn't matter if it is handed over to anyone.

However, Wei Xiaolin was slightly startled when he heard the words, and then asked a little strangely: "Xiaopeng, didn't you say you want to contribute some of the funds?"

"If it can be resolved, why should I pay?"

After blinking his eyes, Sun Peng smiled: "Brother Wei, you have to understand one thing. Although I am confident in my script, I am not very interested in investing in movies. In comparison, I actually like it better. Invest money to do animation..."

...

The day after talking with Wei Xiaolin, Sun Ya flew back to the capital.

Because Sun Ya had just negotiated a "big deal", Sun Ya disregarded his brother's persuasion, and took Wei Xiaolin to the headquarters of Lotus Pictures the next day, and began to discuss various matters of The Matrix. With the previous cooperation with Lao Bai and the trust in Shakolu Pictures, Lotus Pictures is also very interested in this film...

And more importantly, Sun Ya promised to make up all the investment differences.

This is not just a question of money, but also means Lao Bai’s confidence in the film, so there is no doubt that Lotus Pictures immediately began to conduct a comprehensive evaluation of the script and investment, and it will be available in the second week. The result. And Richard, the representative in Sakolu? After Feynman flew to the capital, the three conveniences began to discuss each other's investment, income, and other distribution ratios, as well as directors, actors and other candidates, or talk...

Before she knew it, Sun Ya had served as his agent for several years, and as Sun Peng's stall grew bigger and bigger, she was doing more and more work. So in addition to Sun Ya himself, including Liu Chang, an assistant and accountant, the Yapeng brokerage company now has more than a dozen people, and it is more than enough to deal with these things.

So after Sun Peng showed up twice, everything was left to the second sister.

As for Sun Peng's own words, he quickly focused on another matter, one that was obviously more important than "The Matrix"...

...

"...Gentlemen, this is why "The Lion King" needs a huge amount of money!"

In the big conference room of DreamWorks, Sun Peng knocked on the table, motioned everyone to look at the camera on the big screen, and then smiled at the same time: "Everyone can look at the mane of this lion, look at its eyes... …This is the effect I want! This shot was made by the Capoca Company in Hollywood, and to achieve such an effect, there is no other way to go besides spending money!"

"..."

Looking at the camera on the screen, everyone was silent.

What can they do except silence?

Where is China Animation? Obviously the level of Hollywood's top annual giant system!

The majestic lion's mane on the screen is tens of thousands, and it flutters naturally in the wind at a glance, as if it really exists, and the two eyes are even more fierce, as if staring through the screen. Everyone can pounce at any time!

After a while, a middle-aged man pushed his eyes on the bridge of his nose and asked in a deep voice, "Lao Bai, how much does this effect cost per minute?"

"What about this lion? I spent six hundred thousand!"

When talking about the price, Sun Peng's eyelids couldn't help but jump.

Last time, he most impressed the bosses of the three major animation factories with a song, but they are still hesitating-not whether to join, but how deeply they should participate! I am afraid that the risk is too great, but I am afraid that the box office will be too high when the money is not paid...

So this time, Sun Peng simply brought a short film made by Capoca!

When he saw this thing, Sun Peng’s distressed mouth twitched...that **** Yankee, obviously they have cooperated with more than 100 million US dollars in cartoons, and such a short film requires a fee, and he also plausibly said something different... …

"Six hundred thousand, not expensive!"

"Hehe, I'm talking about US dollars!"

"Dollar?!"

Hearing what Sun Peng said, everyone was dumbfounded!

Everyone knows that Hollywood invests a lot in animation, and you can spend money at any cost for the effect, but that is all I heard after all. Now that I saw something made for 600,000 dollars intuitively, several people subconsciously trembled, and their mouths trembled.

Seeing that everyone’s looks have changed drastically, Sun Peng quickly explained: “Of course, this is the cost of making a short shot alone. If you really want to start doing it, you can definitely reduce it. And then we can buy American animations. Making software, although the investment in the front is larger, but the latter can save a lot of money!"

"To what extent do you plan to cooperate with Americans?"

"In short, it's mainly technical cooperation!"

Taking a deep breath, Sun Peng nodded and said: "After all, there has not been an animation of this scale investment in China, and the corresponding experience is lacking, so cooperation with Americans should be the best choice! And our DreamWorks has sent a few I went to Capoca’s company and worked with them on "Frozen". To be honest, the gap in software alone is too big!"

"..."

For Sun Peng's remarks, everyone was silent again.

gap?

More than software?

China Animation’s weakness has a long history, just like China’s movies. But with the rapid advancement of China's economy, technology and other fields in recent years, now the capital and market are all available, and they are no worse than the Americans, but the accumulation distance in technology is far! But technology can be improved, and you can even buy it, but the more important thing is the concept of animation. The gap is the biggest!

If you have the technology, you can definitely make an animation that the whole world likes?

Give me a break!

The Hollywood animation company has accumulated for decades, and now it has formed a complete industry chain. From script, character image, lens design to story content, the audience’s minds have been fully understood. How do you go? ratio?

If you don't pay enough tuition fees, it's not as good to spend money.

It's like the "Coast" produced by Ice Animation last year with an investment of 450 million Chinese coins. Is the technology really bad? Even if it is inferior to the Americans, it is definitely regarded as world-class, but in the end, it is not necessary because of the plot, personality and other issues. The global box office is only a little more than 1.4 billion, and if you add the publicity fee, you will lose money. damn!

But now, this old white has to invest 780 million yuan to make an animation?

Why are you?

But this idea just came up, and many people answered in their hearts: "It was just because they worked with the Japanese to get a box office champion, and they also collaborated with the Americans on "Frozen". Now Don't want it too hot...If he doesn't have the confidence, I'm afraid no one in China can do it well."

Otherwise, why should they bother?

Just when everyone was talking secretly, Sun Peng knocked on the table again and said loudly: "So we not only invest in real money to buy software, but also cooperate with Americans to learn as much of their technology as possible. , So that we can make a really good animation..."

"Ahem! Sorry!"

This time I didn’t dare to wait for Sun Peng to finish speaking. Fang Lina of Hafei Animation raised her hand: “Lao Bai, I want to ask, you will be solely responsible for this "Lion King" like "Frozen". All the scripts and soundtracks?"

"Of course, I will even be responsible for part of the lens design!"

"……understood!"

After getting an affirmative answer, Fang Lina took a deep breath and nodded vigorously: "Then I will make a statement first! Hafei Animation will invest at least 150 million Chinese coins and there are 20 others. Backbone, participate in the production of this animation..."
