King of Special Effects

In the next month, Jiang Xin, Jiang Zhihe, Sun Yanhua and others are busy preparing for the filming of the TV series Misunderstanding.

Originally, the screenwriter Ling Lan should also participate in their on-site, but now there is a little guy named Xiao Zui at home, who is a new mother and misses the baby every day, so she has no choice but to use the Internet at home or in the company. Involved.

After two months, the first draft of the script of The Three-Body Problem was also completed.

After Yi Yang led the discussion and synthesis of opinions from everyone in the company, the second draft was rewritten.

The script of a movie is not like a TV series. It needs many drafts to be finalized. The dross is discarded and the essence is kept. What is left is the final draft, which is also the shooting direction of the movie.

Big brother Liu had already left Shun Ning to go home a few days ago.

He is one of the screenwriters, but the future will mainly depend on Yi Yang's thoughts.

The post-production of Progress is still going on. Few people know the existence of this movie. Now when searching for the word Progress on the Internet, the results are either zero, or you can only find some irrelevant topics.

But Three-Body Problem is different.

Since a few years ago, especially after The Wandering Earth directed by Guo Fan became popular, the super IP in the Three-Body novel world has been active in the public's sight.

Now that Liangyi Media is preparing for the shooting of The Three-Body Problem, the news has also been released, and related topics have become even more heated.

Everyone on the Internet thinks that Yi Yang's next film after Under Space will be The Three-Body Problem.

Even Ding Liwei thought so. He knew that after Yi Yang was preparing for the filming of Three-Body Problem, he immediately contacted him about investment matters.

Yi Yang refused.

Ding Liwei's status as a good friend and buddy doesn't work.

From the outside world's point of view, Yi Yang's filming of Three-Body Problem is very risky, if not done well, Liangyi Media will lose everything.

Needless to say, small companies, they didn't have the courage to follow Yi Yang's hand.

Larger companies, such as Huayi, Bernard, or Wanda, which is a big business, have not moved for the time being.

Now Penguin has become the first company willing to cooperate with Yi Yang in the filming of Three-Body Problem.

Since this movie is isolated by the insiders, then following this general trend, they simply don't pull Penguin like fire, and let Liangyi Media fight against it.

As for Run Baijin, Yi Yang couldn't care less about them during the filming of this movie.

However, no one voted in China, but there were eyes watching from abroad: Director Cameron.

Yi Yang was not surprised that he contacted himself.

As early as a few years ago, he expressed in an interview that he wanted to make The Three-Body Problem, but he didn't have the film and television copyright. When he knew that the film and television copyright of this novel was auctioned by Huayi, he was so angry that he didn't eat for several days , and also contacted Wang Jun without notifying him to participate in this auction.

However, now that the film and television rights are in Yi Yang's hands, it doesn't matter if he can't make the film, he can participate.

Informed by friends in China, he received the news that Yi Yang was preparing for Three-Body Problem, so he got in touch with Yi Yang immediately, and in a few days he would come to China to have a face-to-face discussion with Yi Yang.

As for Cameron, Yi Yang needs him.

With his participation, Three-Body Problem can obtain better channel benefits in overseas markets. Among other things, the film schedule in overseas theaters will be much higher than that of Liangyi Media's independent marketing.

Therefore, Yi Yang agreed to meet and discuss with him in the capital next Monday.

Put aside the preparations for The Three-Body Problem.

The current release of Progress is also facing a super competitor - Transformers 6, a movie that should have been released a long time ago, was withdrawn once, and now it is making a comeback. Paramount officially announced that it will This year's October 4th National Day file released the movie.

That's where it gets interesting.

Transformers fans are all over the world, and this veteran IP has an unshakable position in the science fiction film industry.

Yi Yang really wanted to compete with them once.

After discussing and confirming with everyone in the company, it was decided to release Progress on the National Day file.

In order to better reflect the competition, it was not released on October 1st, but was deliberately arranged to be released on the same day as Change 6.

Domestic sci-fi films have risen, and now they are fighting for popularity. It doesn’t matter if they lose at the box office, the key is to compete with them, which is interesting.

It has been nearly three months since it was finished, and Yi Yang has completed the visual effects and entered the stage of dubbing.

Alkaki had to find a voice actor for the dubbing, but McKay recorded all his lines before leaving, and now he only needs to synthesize them.

Dubbing work is done by Xiaoqiao Studio.

After all, Wu Jin did not film the fourth wolf again, but his new film The Climber will also meet the audience in this summer.

From the Wolf Warrior series to The Wandering Earth, Wu Jin has attracted countless fans with the image of a tough guy.

Especially now that everyone really hates those pussy little fresh meat, the more powerful the more popular.

As long as he has acting skills and dedication, as long as he doesn't do anything illegal or morally corrupt, he can be liked by the public.

In today's entertainment industry that has undergone major changes in the market, regardless of gender, strength is very important.

The Climber is now in the pre-release publicity stage, and the publicity team, together with the leading actors and producers, went to roadshows everywhere to promote it.

The city of Shunning is also on the list of their roadshow stations.

Wu Jin specially called to invite Yi Yang to attend their road show.

Although Yi Yang doesn't like to attend such activities, of course Jin Ge's invitation has to be accepted.

Ever since Liangyi Media settled in Shun Ning, it seemed that many film producers would think of this city, which could barely be regarded as a third-tier city.

Old Yi, have you calculated the investment for The Three-Body Problem, and how much is it estimated? Yuan Zhengzhong walked into Yi Yang's office with the first draft of the script.

One billion! Yi Yang said casually.

One billion? Can't you? Are you willing to give up one billion?

The place where science fiction movies really burn money is the production of special effects. If the special effects of this movie are viewed according to the general market, one billion may not be able to get it.

That's one billion!

Yuan Zhengzhong nodded: The cost is one billion, and the box office must be at least 3.3 billion to make it back. However, our movie is not worth mentioning compared to some big foreign productions. They all start from hundreds of millions of dollars. Like Avatar, the production cost is 230 million US dollars, which is still 230 million US dollars in more than ten years!

Yi Yang gave him a white look: Then what are you talking about?

Hey, Lao Yi, do you think our movie can surpass the global box office record of Avatar?

Yi Yang shook his head: I'm not a god, how do I know?

He sent a document on the computer desktop to Gillian's computer, and she came in with the printed document after a while.

Yi Yang took it, looked at it, and then handed this document to Yuan Zhengzhong: Notify the brothers in the photography team that within the next ten days, we will take pictures of the things in this plan.

Yuan Zhengzhong was taken aback, and opened the cover: The pre-trailer of Three-Body Problem?
