World-class directors in the entertainment industry
Chapter 503 Pride and Prejudice
There were dozens of people in the huge conference room of one to two hundred square meters.
At this time, the curtains had been drawn on the windows of the conference room, and the room was dark except for the projector on one wall that was emitting light.
"Dong...dong...dong..."
Qin Dong's mobile phone was connected to the computer, and the computer was connected to the projector, which projected a video on the screen.
Everyone in the conference room looked at the wall in the dark room.
The speakers in the house made a dull thumping sound.
Following the sound, a terrifying and huge creature appeared on the screen.
It has a huge head, sharp teeth, and a long tail, which is covered with spikes from head to back and then to the tail.
The thick lower limbs were walking step by step, making the earth make a dull sound with every step.
The forelimbs, which are much slender than the hind limbs, are curled up on the chest, but the pointed claws on the claws are shining with cold light, and a pair of cold eyes shining with appetite on the huge head are looking around, eager to try, waiting for prey to appear.
"Wow, is this the new T-Rex?"
"This special effect is really perfect."
"The special effects are amazing. No wonder this Chinese director is so confident that he doesn't need a Hollywood special effects company."
"I just want to know what kind of dinosaur this is? Obviously Tyrannosaurus rex is not like this. Although it is very similar to Tyrannosaurus rex, the forelimbs of Tyrannosaurus rex are so small that the two forelimbs are useless. And although the forelimbs of this dinosaur are also small,
, but it looks more than ten times larger than the forelimbs of Tyrannosaurus rex."
When everyone in the conference room saw this huge dinosaur appearing, they immediately made an unexpected sound.
These people were summoned to the meeting and received relevant information, which was to take a look at the special effects of the company's upcoming super blockbuster reboot version of "Jurassic Dinosaurs".
After all, most of the cost of special effects blockbusters is actually spent on special effects. This kind of thing is usually decided in meetings.
"Turn on the lights."
Adam Ferguson was sitting in the main seat of the conference room and spoke at this time.
The dark room suddenly became bright again.
The short video on Qin Dong's mobile phone was actually only a few seconds, not even ten seconds.
The complete appearance of the dinosaur was displayed. The dinosaur took a few steps, its huge head lowered slightly, as if it was smelling something, and its eyes with cold light moved slightly, as if looking for prey.
Although the time was short, less than ten seconds was enough for everyone in the conference room to see the clues.
"Pah...pah...pah..."
Adam waited until the room lit up, looked at Qin Dong, stretched out his hand and clapped his hands.
Other Universal employees in the room also applauded him.
"Wow, Qin, you really gave me a surprise again. This kind of special effects surprised me that it was made by your special effects company..."
Adam didn't finish his words, but everyone knew what he meant.
This is not just Adam, but the entire Hollywood sees and thinks this way.
"Adam, prejudice makes people numb, arrogance makes people blind, the reason why people are different from animals is..."
When Qin Dong heard this, his face was calm and expressionless.
As if he didn't care, he just said the words and drew circles on his head with his finger at the end...
Everything goes without saying, showing a condescending attitude, as if looking at an animal.
"..."
Some of the people at the scene suddenly looked ugly.
This is a country full of discrimination. Too many people in this land have this problem. They inherently feel that they look down on people from other countries and are full of arrogance and contempt.
But at this moment, a Chinese director looked down at them and laughed at them. The roles were reversed. Suddenly many people were very unhappy and full of anger.
"To be very philosophical, he is indeed the most profitable director in the world among the new generation."
Adam's timely praise suppressed the dissatisfaction of his men.
As an old man, Adam naturally noticed the expressions of his men. As a native, Adam was naturally more familiar with the local social atmosphere than Qin Dong, an outsider, and wisely chose to avoid fighting.
"A perfect special effects display, Qin, you have proved that the technology of your special effects company is no worse than that of the major special effects companies in Hollywood, so... now, please..."
At the end of the sentence, Adam stretched out his hand to signal.
"Snapped..."
Qin Dong smiled and gestured to Martin by snapping his fingers.
In this kind of matter, even if Qin Dong is promoting business for his company, the role of the agent still exists at this moment, and it is not suitable for Qin Dong to take action personally at this time.
"Everyone..."
Martin explained very well what a qualified agent should do. After seeing Qin Dong's gesture, he greeted everyone in the room with a smile and took out a document:
"I have a document here. Let me read it to you first."
"I took the script of the rebooted version of [Jurassic Dinosaurs] written by my employer and personally discussed it with several special effects companies."
"Lucas's Industrial Light and Magic charges a special effects fee of US$110 million, which often takes at least half a year."
"Weta Digital offers a special effects fee of US$100 million, which usually takes seven to eight months."
"And Cameron's digital field also spent 110 million U.S. dollars on special effects, which often lasted eight months."
"OK, I've finished reading. I just found three special effects companies. I don't think you have any doubt that these three special effects companies are currently the most famous and top special effects companies in Hollywood and even the world, right?"
Martin closed the document, looked at the people in the room and asked with a smile.
But this was nonsense, so he didn’t wait for anyone to respond. He turned to stare at Adam and asked:
"Adam, I think Universal has already inquired with the major special effects companies. I wonder if you have any doubts about the authenticity of my document?"
"...Martin, this is a redundant question. This quotation is very real."
Adam looked at his several supervisors, who all nodded slightly, then looked at Martin speechlessly and complained, but still admitted that the quotation on the other party's document was true.
As a super commercial blockbuster from Universal, special effects are a top priority. How could Universal not make various arrangements early on?
What's more, Hollywood's major film and television companies and special effects companies often deal with them.
Universal has already inquired with several top special effects companies and asked them to make quotations, which are similar to the results of Martin's investigation.
"Adam, how about holding an audition for the role of [Jurassic Dinosaur] the day after tomorrow?"
Qin Dong suddenly interrupted and asked.
"...Okay, you are the director, and we are willing to cooperate with your decision."
Adam thought for a while and agreed.
Although in his and Universal's view, it is best to let the news spread, then notify the close media partners to report the news, let it ferment for a period of time and then hold the audition ceremony, which will attract more attention from the world.
This is a process that major Hollywood film and television companies need to go through every time they start shooting a super commercial blockbuster.
In fact, it is just a word, just hype.
Hollywood as a whole is very good at hype.
Why do local Hollywood artists instantly become global stars as long as they appear in a passable movie? Why do artists from other countries, even if they are famous in their own country, appear in many excellent movies and are even famous around the world?
They are not as good as Hollywood newcomers who have only starred in one outstanding movie. This is the benefit of hype.
"Okay, then we'll see you the day after tomorrow. I'll leave the rest to Martin."
Qin Dong stood up with a smile and said goodbye politely.
