I’m Almost Losing to a Muggle

Brothers, business is coming, get ready to work overtime. Hu Hailang clapped his hands, secretly happy.

According to the experience of these days, as long as someone has a new idea, the boss will make a redo.

In that case, the work of their visual effects team will come.

How many jobs can be done in one job, this is their status in the crew of Xin Shushan.

Moreover, the visual effect remuneration will not be suppressed, and the real money will be given.

This is something that those major visual effects companies dare not think about.

In fact, in the highly competitive external market, if you do a special effects project with a cost of 50 million, it would be good if you can earn 5 million.

And the 50 million special effects projects are all big productions with an investment of more than 200 million to 300 million.

There are not many such movies in a year, and a group of people fight over their heads. In order to bid, in addition to showing their strength, they must constantly lower their bids.

In many cases, it is to lose money to do things.

Losing money and doing things is better than doing nothing. If you don't do things, the company will be dissolved.

Whether it is domestic or foreign, the situation of visual effects companies is the same.

Otherwise, the No. 1 industrial light and magic company would not have sold itself to Disney, and the second-ranked Digital Domain would not have passed through several companies and finally fell into the hands of a Xiangjiang company.

Kleist's meow visual effects don't have to suffer from this.

They are doing their own work.

How much money is taken is based on the relatively high market price in the industry.

Others have headaches and no work to do.

Meow eye visual effects are too much work to finish.

For this reason, their special effects team had to work overtime every three days, sometimes in three shifts.

A large room was specially set up to place computers, which looked like an Internet cafe.

Surrounded by three monitors for each person, the liver's eyes hurt.

Not only the domestic visual effects guys worked overtime, but also the special effects masters invited from abroad followed suit without complaint.

It's not that they don't want to be free.

Not that they don't want eight hours.

There is no way, since 2008, six of Los Angeles, where a large number of special effects production companies have gathered, have closed down one after another, and thousands of special effects engineers have lost their jobs.

Although almost all Hollywood blockbusters currently have special effects shots, the final profit of the special effects department is only about 5%, which is far lower than the more than 20% of other departments.

This once most superior industry has gradually begun to export cheap labor.

And in film production, special effects artists are increasingly viewed as skilled workers.

It is impossible not to work overtime.

A newly hired special effects artist may work 50 to 60 hours a week, and later it will increase to 90 to 120 hours, and overtime has become commonplace.

What is more painful is not overtime, but unemployment.

Once a project is over, they may be laid off immediately, until a new boss is hired months later.

During this period, they have no income.

Hollywood special effects artists live a life of nomadism, London, Vancouver, New Zealand, a command can send them across the world, leaving their wives and children.

Kleist's Miaoyan Visual Effects was established and invited 38 top special effects artists from all over the world to join.

Many of them have served major special effects companies such as Industrial Light and Magic and Digital Domain.

At the beginning, there were indeed some foreign special effects artists who wanted to be free and refused to obey the discipline. As a result, the thirty-eight became thirty-two.

Hu Hailang poached four more from Digital Domain, which existed in name only, filling the number of foreign special effects artists to thirty-six.

Since then, it has been announced that the number of foreign special effects artists is only 36.

Among the thirty-six people, the fittest will survive, and they will be dismissed if they don't do well. They will be filled out from the cover letters from Hollywood visual effects companies.

Under such circumstances, how can anyone yearn for freedom?

Kleist's meow-eyed visual effects treatment is the best in the company, and the annual salary of foreign special effects artists is as high as 200,000... US dollars.

Even if this level is obtained in Silicon Valley, the center of the universe, it can kill the programmers of major manufacturers in seconds.

It's not that Hu Hailang worships foreigners.

His and Lin Dong's strategy is to squeeze these foreign special effects artists, squeeze out their skills and ideas, and feed them back to our own special effects artists.

After the domestic special effects artists grow up, gradually reduce the number of foreign special effects artists.

Foreign special effects artists could not form an alliance with meow-eyed visual effects under the survival of the fittest system. They knew it was a bitter fruit, but they could only hold their noses in the face of the declining global special effects market.

What they have to do is to maintain their leading position in foreign teams and ensure that they are not eliminated.

These foreign visual effects masters are more crazy than domestic guys when they work overtime.

Tsk tsk, it's over, now the budget has to be increased again. Jiang Xiaojun and Xu Wei whispered private chat, they had already greeted Zhou Longxing just now.

Whether it's Xu Guai or Jiang Xiaojun, no one can underestimate Zhou Longxing.

It would not be naive to think that Zhou Longxing would not be able to find any problems with the things they photographed.

In fact, Zhou Longxing picked up the problem when he came up.

This place is too blunt, and the inner drama is not shown. People will continue to say that you are cold-faced and that you have no acting skills.

Anxi who was called over nodded repeatedly.

She and Zhou Longxing seldom meet each other. She is a fairy and a nonsense, and she is not from the same world at all.

But this does not prevent her from respecting this nonsensical master very much.

Retake?

Zhou Longxing needs to make sure whether it is really possible to retake, or whether Lin Dong is just being polite.

An Qian turned her head to look at Lin Dong, and after Lin Dong nodded, she immediately responded, Yes, Master Xing, please teach me a lot.

Thus, Zhou Longxing successfully overwhelmed the guests and became the one in charge of the mirror.

Everyone else stepped aside.

Director Lin, Anxi's acting contract with us isn't so much work. Her assistant seems to be a little distressed. Wen Muye came over with a worried expression on his face.

Which actor is tossed like this.

Tsui Hark, Jiang Xiaojun, Wen Muye, and Lin Dong all have their own ideas, they can call stop when they are filming, and start over when they are finished.

And Anxi is easy to talk to.

Otherwise, people would have given up their picks a long time ago.

In addition to An Qian, Yang Qiu who played Dan Chenzi was from his own company, Liu Xiaomei, the flower demon, was from his own company, and Wu Tie, the blood demon, was also from his own company, and Wu Feng, the white eyebrow, was Lin Dong's buddy. Action movie actors are even more professional It is breathtaking.

Only Anxi, the relationship is not that close.

That's it... Lin Dong thought for a second, and it was true.

An Qian's effort in this film is almost worth the filming of several films outside.

Why don't you talk to some directors? Wen Muye also suddenly saw the expressions of the girls in An Qian's team, and felt that the crew was a bit too much.

Forget it, filming is more important, we can't stop filming just because she is tired. Lin Dong was very cold-blooded.

However, he immediately said another sentence.

She is so tired, she needs to pay more.
