Resource Tycoon Reborn

Chapter 550: Cameron took the bait

Fang Mingyuan and his party naturally didn't know that there was such a conspiracy waiting for Uda Mitsuri in the Lake Ashi Hotel. They were enjoying the delicious fish in the lake in the small town of Hakone Port on the shores of Lake Ashi. As expected, it was as fragrant as Aso.

As Yue said, the fish meat is tender and delicate, and the taste is full of fragrance and endless aftertaste.

After lunch, before they walked out of the restaurant, a group of dark clouds passed by, and it began to rain on Lake Ashi. The rain was not heavy, but the mist rising from the mountains around Lake Ashi made the entire area look dark.

It was foggy, but not long ago I could still see Lake Ashi on the other side, but now it seemed to be vast and boundless. Compared with this beautiful scenery just now, it gave people a different feeling. From the lake

The ferry coming from the opposite direction slowly emerged from the fog.

Fang Mingyuan couldn't help laughing and said: "James, look at that ship. The scene now looks a bit like meeting pirates at sea." Everyone couldn't help but laugh.

Although the rain was not very heavy, the group did not bring umbrellas. Fang Mingyuan simply called the proprietress and set up a big umbrella on the platform in front of the tavern. Everyone drank coffee and tea and enjoyed the beautiful view of Lake Ashi after the rain.

.

"It's still very difficult to use computers to create such effects!" Cameron suddenly exclaimed.

"It won't take long, at most ten years, the technology of computer movie special effects will be enough to complete a picture like this." Fang Mingyuan said with a smile, "It's just that the cost will be very high. By that time, I'm afraid the cost of special effects production will account for the cost of the movie.

A huge piece!”

Cameron shrugged and said: "This is what you Chinese people say, if you get something, you have to pay for it. But if the special effects production can be said to be real, no matter how much it costs,

Money, I think people also like to watch it. I personally have always believed that the special effects were refreshing and played a very important role in why "Star Wars" was able to achieve such good box office results."

Fang Mingyuan deeply agrees with Cameron's conclusion. Among the blockbusters of the 1990s, such as "Forrest Gump", "Schindler's List", "Inception" and other films, it can be said that they are still based on

The plot wins, as for films like (2012), (2012), and (Transformers), it can be said that they all rely on special effects to attract the audience. Even Cameron's future (Avatar), Fang Mingyuan believes that this will be the case

Suspicion. Although after watching the movie, except for the big scenes, which are unforgettable for you, the connotation it expresses is pale and feeble, but people have also made money, and they have made a lot of money.

Compared with these movies, Fang Mingyuan feels that the first two films of the (Terminator) series and the first two films of (Jurassic Park) have a better combination of stunts and ideological connotations. After watching them, people feel that

It is a perfect movie that reflects on the balance between technology and humans, and considers the terrible consequences that may arise from the misuse of high-tech development.

Of course, Fang Mingyuan also understands that this is not because these filmmakers are short-sighted and short-sighted, but because of the rapid development of film technology, they have no time to take care of both. The audience's preference for special effects blockbusters has also indirectly contributed to this

The result. As long as the scene is grand enough and shocking enough, the general social environment of box office revenue will not be low, which determines that both film companies and directors will more or less ignore the ideological nature of movies. Hong Kong movies also went through the same process back then.

In the future, when special effects production encounters development bottlenecks, audiences who are tired of watching movies with grand special effects scenes and weak plot ideas will naturally force film companies and directors to change their reliance on special effects.

This is the way to conquer the world.

"Fang, it seems that the rain won't stop for a while. Why don't you talk about your idea for "Pirates of the Caribbean"?" Cameron said with a genuine smile.

Fang Mingyuan couldn't help but burst into laughter. This was what he did and loved. He would not let go of any script that might be good.

"Yes, yes, Mr. Fang, tell me about it!" Uda Mitsuri also echoed from the side. Since I can't get a role from it, listening to it in advance will be a good talking point in the future.

Fang Mingyuan smiled slightly and said: "Okay, okay, it's just an outline. Don't think it's a rough plot. Well... Speaking of Central America and the Caribbean in the Middle Ages, due to the development of the shipping industry in the Age of Discovery, people traveled to and from the Americas every year.

There were many ships between Europe and Europe, so one of the oldest professions in the world, piracy, prospered. And in the Caribbean at that time, there was such a group of pirates... They plundered the cursed Aztecs

They were cursed by evil because of the gold coins, and became skeletons that could not satisfy all their desires. They could not die, nor could they taste the delicacies and clean water in the world. They had to suffer from hunger and thirst all the time. Moreover, they also had a characteristic that they would...

Showing the prototype under the moonlight..." As Fang Mingyuan whispered, not only Uda Mitsuri and the others, but also Cameron were deeply attracted by this story.

"The pirates could no longer endure this inhumane suffering and decided to return the plundered Aztec gold coins to avoid the curse. But then they discovered that an Aztec gold coin was not in their possession.

So in order to find this gold coin, they started searching in various ports along the Caribbean coast. Because only by getting this gold coin and using the blood of its holder can they break this extremely painful curse.

!For this reason, they did not hesitate to bloodbath the entire Caribbean coast..."

As the story slowly progressed, Uda Mitsuri and the others couldn't help but worry about the dangerous encounter of the protagonist. However, they had no clue how to eliminate this group of ferocious pirates.

"Fang Jun, since these pirates cannot die, as you said, they can't even be killed by a sharp knife through the heart, then how can the protagonist and the others win?" When Fang Mingyuan stopped to drink water, Uda Guangli couldn't bear it.

The pirates in Fang Mingyuan's story are just like the legendary undead zombies.

"Yes, but even now, I haven't heard that there is a priest or priest in the story? Isn't the fighting power of the two sides completely unbalanced?" Aso Xiangyue also said softly.

"Hahaha..." Fang Mingyuan couldn't help laughing. This is the charm of the story. At this time, except for the original creator and the crew members, no one can imagine how these pirates were finally eliminated. That's right.

It is this question that makes the audience sit down in the cinema and continue watching.

Cameron frowned slightly. Fang Mingyuan had just carefully described several key special effects selling points. With today's technology, it is indeed difficult to perfectly realize them! If nothing else, just the one in Moonlight

Next, the scene where everyone turns into a skeleton is enough to make the special effects producers think hard. The trick of people turning into skeletons is not unprecedented in previous movies, but this kind of thing can be seen by the audience at a glance

It's a pretender. It's very difficult to achieve the perfection Fang Mingyuan said! And I'm afraid it's not something you can do if you have money! Only then did Cameron truly realize why Fang Mingyuan said he had to wait a few years.

"Jurassic Park", "True Lies", "Pirates of the Caribbean", and that one "Speed" that Fang Mingyuan once mentioned although he never talked about it in detail, Cameron now only feels that he is unable to do both.

ah.

"Fang, I hate you!" Cameron suddenly waved his fist and said loudly, and everyone else jumped when they heard it! Everyone's hearts were raised, what's wrong with Cameron, why is he so clueless?

Such a sentence suddenly popped out. Even Fang Mingyuan himself was startled, not knowing where he had offended him.

"There are so many good scripts, how can you expect me to film them!" Cameron's next sentence made everyone immediately heave a sigh of relief.

"Fang, I have made an agreement with you that I will direct "Pirates of the Caribbean" in the future!" Cameron grabbed Fang Mingyuan's hand and said solemnly. With such a challenging script, Cameron

Long naturally did his part!

"No problem, James, we are good friends. This wealth does not go to others, right?" Fang Mingyuan felt happy in his heart. There is a difference between asking for help and being asked for. Not only did he get Cameron

The director's commitment and personal favor are also great, and the benefits are huge!

Cameron breathed a sigh of relief in his heart. Although he knew that since Fan Mingyuan told him about this script and said so much, this script was probably prepared for him, but without a clear commitment from Fan Mingyuan, he would

I just don't feel at ease.

"But, James, if you want to direct this movie, the special effects production company must hurry up. When the technology matures, when will we start shooting!" Fang Mingyuan said with a half-smile.

"Fang!" Cameron immediately raised his tone, "That's your company too!"

"Well, it's mine and it's yours. After all, it's more yours! James, you are the major shareholder, so you don't care who controls it?" Fang Mingyuan said with an indifferent expression, "How about we discuss it and I

If you want to be the company's major shareholder, then I will take the trouble to find someone to take care of it."

Cameron was completely speechless. It is really rare for an investor like Fang Mingyuan to let go and never take power. People are eager to sit in key positions in the company. It's good that he can

Don't care, just issue the request, and leave it all to yourself as to how to complete it!

"James, remember to promise me! You will help me cultivate computer talents, help me recruit people from the Soviet Union, and help me make money from Hollywood movie companies!" Fang Mingyuan smiled like a kid who just stole a chicken.

Like a fox.
