Entertainment: The opening and the official announcement of the national goddess

Chapter 372 Taishan Special Effects Company, the first business order (please recommend and collect)

"Old Guo, Brother Jin, come on, let's walk together to celebrate the big victory of our "Wandering Planet"."

"Done!"

The three raised their glasses and drank together.

After Wu Jin finished drinking, he asked, "Is the filming of "Operation Red Sea" going well?"

"Smooth!" Zhang Xiao said angrily, "This movie is the most difficult movie I've ever made. The battle scenes are much bigger than our Wolf Warrior 2. From the beginning to the end, it's just one word, type !"

Wu Jin said angrily: "You just stand and talk without pain in your back. I really want to act, but it's a pity that people don't like me!"

"Stop talking nonsense!" Zhang Xiao rolled his eyes and said, "Old Guo, let's talk about a time, let's hold a grand celebration banquet in Yuzhou."

"How about this Saturday?" Guo Fan asked quickly.

Zhang Xiao nodded and said, "No problem!"

Guo Fan said with a smile: "Okay, then I will inform everyone immediately."

After Wu Jin took a bite of the dish, he said, "Let's agree first, Lao Guo and I don't care about the red envelope."

Zhang Xiao was immediately overjoyed, and said, "Brother Jin, when did you become so stingy? Where did that Wu Jin who wanted to make movies even if he broke his fortune?"

Wu Jin shrugged and said, "Whatever you say, we won't pay the money anyway, and it's impossible to take the money from the box office. You can give as much as you want."

Zhang Xiao was speechless for a while, and said: "With such a thick skin, I have convinced you, okay, I will go out with the money myself!"

"Hahaha, that's what you've been waiting for!" Wu Jin laughed.

···
Three days later, Zhang Xiao hosted a grand "Wandering Planet" celebration banquet in a five-star hotel in Yuzhou.

Regardless of whether they received the invitation or not, celebrities from all walks of life came to express their congratulations to Zhang Xiao.

That night, Zhang Xiaoguang sent out about 4000 million red envelopes.

Half a month later, "The Wandering Planet" was released, and the global box office reached a terrifying 26.25 billion US dollars, entering No.3 in the global box office rankings and achieving great success.

As the biggest investor in the movie, Zhang Xiao was able to get 6.8 million US dollars from the box office, and the net profit reached a terrifying [-] million US dollars, which can be said to be a lot of money.

The success of "The Wandering Planet" also made Zhang Xiao more confident in the "Interstellar" he was about to shoot.

After the celebration banquet, Zhang Xiao approached Liu Haiquan and formed a special effects company named Taishan.

Zhang Xiao invested 95 million US dollars and served as the president of the company, occupying 5% of the shares, and Liu Haiquan served as the technical director, occupying [-]% of the shares.

In order to attract special effects talents to join, Zhang Xiao also took out 10% of the shares as a reward for the company's employees.

In less than ten days, nearly [-] special effects professionals came to participate in film reviews alone.

Liu Haiquan selected 2000 people from nearly [-] people to join Taishan Special Effects Company.

After getting the technical staff, Zhang Xiao took Liu Haiquan and dozens of technical backbones to Hollywood non-stop, spent a total of 5000 million U.S. dollars to purchase various special effects equipment, and let these technical backbones work in the famous Vita Special Effects Studio studied for more than half a month before returning to China.

So far, the framework of Taishan Special Effects Company has been set up.

Zhang Xiao convened a meeting of all technicians of Taishan Special Effects Company to recall, and established the first rule, that is, no special effects worth fifty cents.

No matter how much money he earns, he doesn't accept it. This is not because of Zhang Xiao's friendship, but because his positioning of Taishan Special Effects Company is to take the high-end route.

What's more, compared with the high-end special effects movies, the price difference between the five cents special effects movies made in the same time is at least ten times.

In terms of benefits and profits, the former is definitely far inferior to the latter, so it is better to specialize in high-end special effects.

On the second day after the establishment of Taishan Special Effects Company, Zhang Xiao received a call from Lin Chao, the director of "Operation Red Sea".

"Zhang Xiao, I heard that you have opened a special effects company. I wonder if you dare to take over the special effects production of "Operation Red Sea"?"

"I would dare to accept other special effects except those with fifty cents special effects." Zhang Xiao said with a smile, "However, Director Lin, didn't you cooperate with a special effects company in Hollywood? Why did you suddenly find me? "

"Cough, don't mention it!" Lin Chao said with a gloomy face: "These crooked fruit people are too dark, and they even increased the fee to 8000 million US dollars. I was so angry that I almost sprayed them in the face with salt soda."

"I'll go, this is really cruel!" Zhang Xiao didn't expect that the special effects cost would be so high, so he said, "Okay, I'll take people there right away. If there is no problem, we will take over "Operation Red Sea" The first one is alive."

Originally, Zhang Xiao planned to use his own film "Interstellar" to make a name for Taishan Special Effects Company, but now that "Operation Red Sea" is ready-made, it is also a very good choice.

After all, he is the leading actor in this movie, and he is very confident in the quality of the movie "Operation Red Sea".

He took Liu Haiquan and more than a dozen technical backbones to director Lin Chao's side. After watching the filming materials, Liu Haiquan estimated a price based on Lin Chao's request, 2.8 million soft sister coins.

Hearing this number, Director Lin Chao frowned and said, "Can't it be lower?"

Liu Haiquan explained: "Director Lin, your requirements for the picture have reached the level of Hollywood's top special effects, and this price is already the lowest. I dare say that even if you travel all over the world, you can't find another one that is better than ours. Still cheap, unless you lower your requirements."

"It is absolutely impossible to lower the requirements!" Lin Chao said firmly: "Everything can be lowered, but the quality of the movie cannot be lowered."

After speaking, he looked at Zhang Xiao again, and said, "Zhang Xiao, you are also an investor in "Operation Red Sea", what do you say?"

Zhang Xiao smiled wryly and said, "Director Lin, don't ask me. I'm blind to technical problems. You can't make me work at a loss, can you?"

"In this way, after discussing with those investors, you can pay half of the deposit first, and the other half will be paid after the movie is released."

Lin Chao's eyes lit up when he heard it, and he said, "It would be great if this is possible. You wait for me, and I'll make a call."

···
After 15 minutes, Lin Chao came back and said: "Everyone agreed, 2.8 million, and your Taishan Special Effects Company will produce all the special effects of "Operation Red Sea"."

"After signing the contract, the crew will first pay a deposit of 1.4 million yuan. By the way, I hope this movie will be released before the Spring Festival. Can the special effects be completed?"

Liu Haiquan thought for a while and said, "Yes, I can find some special effects studios to help, and try to finish it in three months."

"That's good!" Lin Chao said excitedly.
