China Entertainment special effects started in 1997

"Are all the blockbusters under your name going to be converted into 3D?" Yang Hongtao asked in a tentative tone.

Jiang Heng smiled and said, "No, I just picked some more suitable films, but there are also several, so I am afraid that I will not be able to accept orders from domestic peers in the next two or three years!"

Yang Hongtao still opened his mouth slightly and looked shocked when he heard this.

The main reason is that Jiang Heng has made too many blockbusters in recent years, and most of them are above the standard.

When it was a 2D version, it was already very shocking.

If it is all converted into 3D, will there be a way for others to survive?

For example, when Ningxia Film's "Painted Skin" was released, Jiang Heng took out a film converted into 3D to compete. Thinking of such a picture, Yang Hongtao couldn't help but tremble slightly, and his tone became more and more warm.

"Congratulations to Director Jiang. With so many blockbusters re-screened, he can make a lot of money!"

Jiang Heng laughed, "It's not all about making money. It's not that the current audiences like to watch 3D movies. We in the film industry should try our best to meet the needs of the audience, right?"

Yang Hongtao didn't know whether to laugh or cry when he heard this, and thought to himself: "This set of words is even better than mine!"

He hurriedly said: "Director Jiang cares about the people's viewing needs, and he deserves the title of 'national master'!"

Jiang Heng laughed when he heard this!

It is said that the Olympics have not yet opened, and the saying of "national master" is only circulated in a small range.

But since the 3D version of "Havoc in Heaven" was released, countless Chinese people have regarded this film as the best special effects blockbuster in the world, and the name of "national master" has spread.

Every time Jiang Heng heard someone say this, he would still be more or less humble.

"I don't deserve the title of 'national master'. I'm still busy with the opening and closing ceremonies! Director Yang, Director Chen, can we have a meal and talk about it when we have time?"

"Okay, okay, I don't want to delay you, we'll leave first!"

Yang Hongtao and Chen Jiashang said goodbye immediately. After leaving the Olympic venue, Yang Hongtao said with lingering fear: "How many movies has he made in these years?"

"About ten!"

"If every movie is converted into 3D, how much more money will he make?" Yang Hongtao's eyes were red with envy.

Chen Jiashang is similar. After all, as a director, he has only a few works that he can show off in all these years.

Compared with Jiang Heng, his mentality can't help but be unbalanced.

The two chatted while walking, and talked enthusiastically about the topic of converting Jiang Heng's works into 3D.

But Jiang Heng only planned to re-screen a few films.

After all, this is suspected of "raising money". If all the previous films are re-screened, it will be too ugly to be seen, which will cause public backlash.

Moreover, in the future, there will be a large number of post-converted 3D movies on the market, which are the so-called "pseudo-3D".

The quality of the film is really not good.

The reason is simple. True 3D movies use the method of human eyes to observe the scenery. Two parallel movie cameras are used to represent the left and right eyes of the person, and two pictures with slight horizontal parallax are taken simultaneously.

During the screening, the special polarized glasses can superimpose the left and right "double images" on the retina, and the brain nerves produce a three-dimensional visual effect, thus showing a series of coherent three-dimensional pictures, which makes the audience feel the magical illusion of "being there".

"Pseudo-3D" is a lazy behavior that saves time and effort. It uses ordinary cameras to shoot flat images, and then uses software to produce several layers on the computer with slight staggered layers.

Because the staggered distance is calculated by formula based on the distance between the front, middle and back of the camera, it is naturally biased compared to the picture taken by "true 3D".

The biggest disadvantage is that the image lacks a sense of depth, which makes the audience feel "too flat". On the contrary, the subtitles with simple composition look more three-dimensional than the picture.

Jiang Heng has a "super microcomputer", which can naturally solve this problem and can convert a film comparable to "Havoc in Heaven".

It is claimed that it took many years to make it carefully.

If each one is much better than other converted films and the time is particularly fast, it is difficult to explain.

As for the first converted 3D movie released, it is Jiang Heng's favorite "Lion Camel Ridge".

If it is operated according to Hollywood or domestic companies, this movie must be "fuzzy".

The reason is very simple, because a large number of fighting scenes in the film take place at night.

In the previous life, how many "China Special 3D Editions" did Hollywood companies make money!

The special effects scenes are mostly night scenes. The conversion was a bit fussy, and the xenon lamp brightness was low during the screening, so the viewing effect was a mess.

Jiang Heng had a "plug-in" to make the 3D effect better, otherwise he would not have done this.

After finishing the morning work, Liu Yifei suddenly called.

She has already gone to Hengdian with the crew of "A Chinese Ghost Story".

The film started shooting in mid-July, and the other scenes except "Ning Caichen" were filmed first.

Liu Yifei first shared her experience in the morning, and then said: "By the way, will this movie have a 3D version?"

"Why do you ask this?"

"Just, I'm curious!"

"Tell the truth!"

"Well, this is the first blockbuster we co-starred in, I just want the box office to be higher and the reputation to be better!" Liu Yifei whispered.

What was not said was that Guo Fan often said a few words recently, saying that if this movie had a 3D version, the box office would not be as good as "Havoc in Heaven", but it would definitely be very high.

After listening to it many times, Liu Yifei memorized it.

The actual box office of the film has little direct relationship with her, because she is paid for the film.

Just thinking that this was the first special effects blockbuster she starred in with Jiang Heng, and thinking that it would gain both word-of-mouth and box office success, I couldn't help but ask.

Jiang Heng, to be honest, he has never considered the release of the 3D version of "A Chinese Ghost Story".

After all, it was directed by Guo Fan, and there were a lot of things going on at the Olympic venues, so time flew by.

Hearing Liu Yifei suddenly mention this matter, I thought about it and said, "I can make a version and let Guo Fan shoot normally first, and then convert it to 3D when doing post-production!"

Liu Yifei is one of the seven fairies in "Havoc in Heaven". She has seen how Jiang Heng shoots, and she probably knows the difference between "real and fake 3D".

"Oh, the effect won't be much different, right?"

Jiang Heng smiled, "If others did that, the effect would be mediocre, but for me, it would be different!"

"Okay, I believe you!" Liu Yifei was satisfied and hung up the phone with a few words.

In the evening, Da Tiantian suddenly called and said in an extremely surprised and happy tone: "Brother, the stock has gone up. The stock has gone up by several daily limits. You are so awesome!"

Hearing this, Jiang Heng smiled and said, "Did you just get access to the Internet over there, and you only found out now?"

Da Tiantian said in embarrassment: "Didn't I forget? Who made the stock market this year be so bad? It keeps falling. As soon as I open the trading software, it is all green. It makes my face turn green!"

Hearing this, Jiang Heng burst into laughter!
