Entertainment: Banned for Five Years, Became the Godfather of Hollywood

Chapter 66 The special effects team of "The Wandering Earth" is under his command!

Central California, Alabama Hills.

This is one of the highest elevations on the west coast of North America, only tens of kilometers from Death Valley National Park.

This vast desert highland is full of craggy rocks, and the scene is very spectacular.

In the plot of "Iron Man", the filming location of Afu Khan is here.

That's right, the entire movie was shot in California and didn't go anywhere else.

The crew is ready, and Infinite Pictures' first comic film "Iron Man" has officially started!

On the first day of filming, Chu Xuan even felt a little relaxed.

Since Chu Xuan independently filmed films such as "The Godfather", he has gained a whole new understanding of the art of directing.

Even if he doesn't rely on his own movie library, he can direct a decent movie.

According to the concept in the game, Chu Xuan is basically a Lv.3 peak, a half-step Lv.4 level director.

Or when the King of Glory comes to the golden bureau to fry fish, Chu Xuan can kill in the canyon while watching the drama.

On set, he also wasn't as stressed as the first two films.

It's like being out on vacation.

"Cut! This one is over! Robert, your performance is great."

Chu Xuan praised Robert Downey Jr.'s performance.

The one stop he goes to is the playboy Tony Stark, and it's good to play in his true colors.

This is the scene where Tony Stark headed to Afu Khan in high spirits to show the explosion.

Robert "Six Seven Seven" Downey Jr. played that billionaire, playboy debauchery.

During the filming interval, the crew temporarily rested.

"Little Pepper" Gwyneth came over at some point and handed Chu Xuan a drink.

The weather in California is getting hotter, and the crew is sweating profusely.

"Chu, the drink is a chilled solution to relieve the heat... By the way, is it convenient for me to look at the material I just shot?

"Okay, come and have a look." Anyway, they are all members of the crew, so there is nothing to avoid.

As a result, Gwyneth almost stuck to Chu Xuan's body, and the faint perfume penetrated into his head.

Gwyneth's "career line" can be seen even by Chu Xuan Yuguang Wang.

In front of outsiders, Gwyneth also looks very serious, a sweet girl with a gentle personality.

She is only 29 years old this year, much younger than her previous life.

The amorous feelings revealed intentionally or unintentionally made Chu Xuan unbearable.

Forget it, it's not him who suffers anyway.

Chu Xuan kept silent and continued to let her bend over to watch.

"Thank you, worthy of being the best director, this filming is really good. 35

Chu Xuan's smile was a little stiff, and Xiao Chili started to sigh with embarrassment.

And there was no role for her here, so she could come to the crew tomorrow to report and shoot at the mansion by the sea.

But Gwyneth did not know why, so she took the initiative to come over and euphemistically said: I want to know more about the plot so that I can easily enter the play.

Anyway, the appearance is not bad, and it is good to put it on the crew to be eye-catching.

Chili Pepper casually chatted with Chu Xuan again, looked at Chu Xuan coquettishly, turned around and left.

Gee, really good tea.

At this time, Robert Downey Jr. passed by, with a smirk among the men, and gave him a "you know" look.

"Wow...Chu, your casting is really good. Come on, I'm optimistic about you!"9

Chu Xuan suddenly felt helpless.

Things are not what you see, I didn't think about unspoken rules!

It's a pity that he's gone so far that Chu Xuan didn't have time to explain.

"Iron Man" has only been launched for a day, and Xiao Chili got close to Chu Xuan intentionally or unintentionally.

No wonder Robert Downey Jr thinks wrong.

With the help of the Russo brothers, the live-action part of Iron Man was not difficult.

The original version of the Mark1 steel armor, Chu Xuan also ordered people to create a 1:1 props armor!

The materials are selected from new alloys, epoxy resin, flexible polyurethane and other materials, and are coated with a layer of metal chrome paint.

This set of Mark 1 armor looks very bulky and textured.

It is quite light to wear on the body, and can move flexibly even without a stunt double.

Robert Downey Jr. put it on and tried it on. He didn't feel tired at all, and even thought it was fun.

So I just let him wear the armor to perform the scene of escaping from the cave.

Mark1 can be rough, but the next Mark2 and Mark3 must be combined with certain CG special effects.

All the special effects of the previous Marvel movies came from the famous "Industrial Light and Magic"!

This is the first professional digital effects studio in Hollywood created by George Lucas for Star Wars.

Later, "Star Wars" succeeded, and Industrial Light and Magic became an instant hit, almost monopolizing all the Oscar technology awards in the following years.

Almost all major Hollywood directors are vying to work with ILM.

Spielberg, Cameron, they are all loyal supporters of Industrial Light and Magic.

In the parallel world, Chu Xuan planned to cooperate with Industrial Light and Magic.

However, after George Lucas in "Star Wars", IML did not receive many orders.

In recent years, they have only participated in the production of films such as "Jurassic Park", "Forrest Gump" and "Grange in Disguise".

"Transformers", "Pirates of the Caribbean", "Harry Potter" series, "Avatar" these box office hit movies do not exist.

The special effects blockbusters received by IML are hitting the streets one by one.

Scared those Hollywood movies to dare to work with them.

This also led to a crisis in Lucasfilm, which was acquired by Disney for $2.1 billion.

Chu Xuan's Infinite Pictures wants to collaborate?

Disney would never agree! Unless Chu Xuan backs down and gives a large percentage of the box office split.

Naturally, it is impossible for Chu Xuan to cooperate with Disney.

Now we can only find other special effects teams.

After that, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, plus other big-budget movies, are inseparable from the top special effects team.

Even before the filming of "The Godfather," Chu Xuan sent marketing manager Mark Laurenson all over the world to find a good special effects team.

In the middle of the filming of "The Godfather", Chu Xuan himself also talked with several special effects team leaders.

Or the other party's bid is too high, and the lion's big mouth asks for 4 billion US dollars.

Either the technology is too bad, and it is not much better than the special effects of 5 hairs.

In short, after searching for a long time, Chu Xuan did not find a suitable team.

At the time, he even wanted to delay the shooting of Iron Man.

Later, when chatting with Mai Zhaohui about "Infernal Affairs", Chu Xuan casually mentioned that he was looking for a special effects team recently.

Mak Zhaohui suggested at the time: "Gu Zai is a partner of a special effects company, do you want to chat with him."

Chu Xuan's eyes suddenly lit up, and an epiphany flashed in his mind!

Gu Tianle, special effects company?

Wait... "The Wandering Earth"!

Chu Xuan suddenly remembered that the previous life "Wandering Earth" exploded, and the special effects teams MORE-VFX and BaseFX of Long Kingdom also became famous.

The team invested by Gutianle only accounts for a small part of "The Wandering Earth".

The "One World Group" he participated in investment includes 4 teams:

FATface, Wutong Digital, ONE-COOL, Xina Mofu.

All vehicles and motion platforms in "The Wandering Earth" were subcontracted to Sheena Mofu.

The two companies MORE-VFX and BaseFX are the main force of special effects.

Chu Xuan hurriedly sent people to investigate, and it didn't take long for the results to come.

MORE-VFX also started out as special effects for commercials.

Not long ago, the film "The Great Golden Robbery", directed by Ning Hao and starring Lei Jiayin, was filmed.

The first time they made a movie, they underestimated the difficulty of special effects.

Almost got the job done.

The special effects of the movie are really good, but they are also severely damaged. The 70 members have been reduced to 15 members, leaving only the core backbone.

BaseFX is still in the capital, and usually only receives special effects for some TV series.

Their production level can be regarded as world-class, but they have no cooperation with Industrial Light and Magic, and they have no reputation.

After seeing these materials, Chu Xuan suddenly had an idea.

Integrate these two companies and create your own special effects company!

Do it if you think of it!

Immediately after the Oscars, Chu Xuan approached the heads of the two companies.

When they heard that Oscar's best director wanted to buy their company, the other side couldn't believe it.

After some intense negotiations, Chu Xuan finally acquired MORE-VFX for only $10 million and acquired BaseFX for $35 million!

So far, Chu Xuan merged the two special effects teams and established his own special effects company - Matrix!

The establishment of the special effects company "Matrix" did not cause any waves.

At that time, everyone was paying attention to "The Godfather", and then the whole Internet heatedly discussed Chu Xuan's acquisition of Marvel, and then Chu Xuan announced the filming of "Iron Man".

Even if some careful fans noticed the news, they did not understand the meaning of "Matrix".

Until one day after that, when people saw the red pill and the blue pill, they saw the green code all over the screen.

The fans remembered this news and thought of Chu Xuan's special effects company.

The crowd was terrified all of a sudden!

Of course, these are all things to come. After Chu Xuan's integration, the original two teams have also merged together.

Instead of putting the company in Los Santos, Chu Xuan established it directly in the capital.

All the team members are their own people, this is 100% of the Dragon Kingdom team!

In theory, our own talent strength is not bad, and even the comprehensive ability is better.

The reason why domestic film and television dramas are full of "5 hair special effects" lies in two points:

Not enough time, not enough money.

In fact, the special effects do not have too high technical content, they are completely polished and detailed!

For example, the dragon in "Game of Thrones", every subtle expression, scale, and movement has been carefully designed.

When breathing fire, the head will shrink back slightly to complete the charging, and there will be subtle changes in the eyes and face.

Generally, the domestic team lacks 3.5% of the money input, and the investors are eager for success.

Many semi-finished products are directly taken out and placed on the screen, and there is no time to pick out the details.

They usually ignore these micro-expressions, just stick their heads out and breathe fire and they're done.

Audiences may not notice these differences, but they are obviously counter-intuitive to the senses.

Chu Xuan is different, he is not short of money, and he is not in a hurry.

The steady stream of box office revenue is his greatest confidence!

Chu Xuan has only one requirement for the special effects of "Iron Man", and that is to be as detailed as possible!

Strive to blur the lines between virtual and real!

Whenever a piece of content is filmed, he sends it directly to the special effects team in his country to get them started.

"Iron Man" is also gradually taking shape with the efforts of everyone.

While Chu Xuan is busy shooting, other Hollywood giants have also announced their summer movie release plans.

Dwayne Johnson, "Jumanji";

Angelina Jolie, "Maleficent";

Wachowski Brothers director, Matt Damon starring in sci-fi 'Jupiter Rising'!

Anne Hathaway starring in "Alice in Wonderland" directed by Tim Burton!

Plus Chu Xuan's Iron Man!

Fans around the world can not help but exclaimed.

"This summer vacation, it's like a fight between gods!""

"Magic-Chu is afraid of Waterloo..."

"Damn, how did Iron Man fight them?"
