Rebirth of the Entertainment Master

"Can I really watch 3D movies? I can't believe it."

"Oh my god, the world in the movie seems to be happening before our eyes. It's amazing."

"Xiao once said that the box office of "2012" can reach more than 150 billion US dollars, it should be because of 3D technology."

"Without absolute certainty, Xiao will definitely not use 3D technology to shoot four films in one go. I am really looking forward to it."

"Come on November 3st, I can't wait to experience the charm of [-]D movies."

Chapter 1037 Undercurrent is turbulent

Not only in the United States, the news of Xiao Yunhai and 3D technology quickly spread all over the world.

Most of the countries and regions hold a skeptical attitude towards Xiao Yunhai's 3D technology, but Huaxia firmly believes in Xiao Yunhai's revelation, and his fans are even more excited.

"Yunhuang is great, Dream Special Effects Image Company is once again at the forefront of the world."

"Yunhuang really gave Huaxia's entertainment circle a face. At the beginning, Hollywood was number one in the world in technology, and Huaxia needed to act according to their faces. Now, Yunhuang's dream turned out to be an accident, not only developed the strongest special effects technology, but now also 3D is also coming out. It’s amazing.”

"Come on Yunhuang, I look forward to the arrival of "2012" as soon as possible."

"Emperor Yun, I love you, you are the best."

Paramount Headquarters of America

In Hanks' office, the great director Weaver was sitting on the sofa, smoking a cigar, with a serious expression on his face.

"Mr. Hanks, if Xiao's "2012" is really a mature 3D movie, then we will be in big trouble." Weaver said.

Hanks frowned. Now that he heard Xiao Yunhai's name, he felt a little uncomfortable. Two consecutive failures made him feel a little lacking in self-confidence.

"Mr. Waver, do you think what Xiao said is true?"

Weaver thought for a while and said, "I don't know. I didn't believe it at all when he said that his film used 3D technology. Because of the 3D special effect technology, I also conducted special research. It turns out that there are so many aspects involved in it.”

“To perfectly present a 3D movie to movie fans on the big screen, not only need 3D screen, 3D camera, 3D glasses, but also need the director and photographer to understand 3D shooting technology, and perfect combination with special effects in post-production .It was very difficult to do these things, and I thought it was impossible at the time.”

"So before I thought that Xiao's "2012" was just empty guns, and the purpose was just for publicity. But now he dares to let four films be shot with 3D cameras at the same time, which makes me a little confused about the situation. Maybe , he could really do it."

Hearing Weaver's words, Hanks suddenly felt a little irritated and panicked, but in front of Weaver, he still controlled it very well.

"If what Xiao Yunhai said is true, is there any possibility for us to win?" Hanks asked Weaver with piercing eyes.

Weaver took a puff of his cigar, shook his head, and said: "I don't know. Because I can't be sure what kind of effect "2012" can achieve. If it can perfectly give people an immersive feeling, then we There's hardly any hope of winning."

Hanks looked a little ugly, and said: "Director Weaver, to be honest, I'm really a little confused now. I feel like this Xiao is my nemesis, and it makes me feel terrible every time."

Weaver comforted: "We don't have to worry too much. If 3D movies want to meet fans, they must change the screen to 3D screens, and theaters need to buy a lot of 3D glasses. These will not be cheap. Especially the transformation of 3D screens , I estimate that a screen is at least 20 US dollars. Therefore, even if those theater owners want to do this, they probably don’t have so much money. Even if they have money, they should not have such boldness. After all, 3D movies are a new No one knows what its future will be."

Hanks' eyes lit up, he clapped his hands, and said, "That's right. 3D movies are an uncertain factor, and no one dares to make large-scale transformations. Without the 3D screen, the danger of his "2012" will be reduced to zero." lowest."

Weaver nodded and said, "Yes. I think this is also the reason why Xiao made two versions, 2D and 3D, because I'm afraid even he can't guarantee that some theaters are willing to spend such a large price to transform the screen."

Hanks cheered up, stood up, and said: "Xiao said this at the press conference, it is nothing more than an advertisement for 3D movies. I will contact the principals of major European and American cinemas and have a good chat. Take a look at this matter."

Weaver laughed and said, "My "Resident Evil" is about to be completed, and these two days are the final stage, so I'll be busy first."

Coming out of Hanks' office, the smile on Weaver's face disappeared immediately, replaced by a worried face.

What he said in the office was just to strengthen Hanks' confidence, but in fact he didn't know what to do in his heart.

However, Weaver did not deceive Hanks. He did study 3D imaging technology. Because of this, he knew that once 3D movies matured, they would bring people a subversive experience.

At that time, no matter how good the 2D version of the movie is, it will definitely not be able to match the 3D movie.

"I hope Xiao's "2012" is not as I imagined, otherwise "Resident Evil" will be really dangerous."

Pinning the box office of his own movie on the other party makes Weaver, who has always been full of self-confidence, very uncomfortable.

After Xiao Yunhai finished the press conference, he invited the heads of the four major companies, Bi Kewen, and the main creators of the four major superhero movies to the manor villa for a meal.

As soon as he sent them off, Xiao Yunhai received a call from Kerry.

"Xiao, you guys have done a great job of keeping secrets. You didn't tell me about such a big thing as 3D movie technology."

As soon as Kerry came up, he started asking questions.

Xiao Yunhai said angrily: "People all over the world know that my "2012" is a 3D movie, don't you know?"

Kerry said: "I know. But I always thought that your 3D technology was immature, and "2012" was just an experimental product."

Xiao Yunhai pretended to be angry and said: "Well, Kerry, it turns out that you boy never believed me."

Kerry seemed to realize that he had slipped his mouth, and explained with a smile: "I didn't mean that. I..."

Xiao Yunhai directly interrupted him, saying: "Don't look for excuses, it's useless to edit it well. Tell me, what do you want to do with this call?"

Kerry said: "I just want to ask how much it will cost to change a 2D screen into a 3D screen? And what are the prices of the 3D glasses and 3D camera?"

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "We have already set the price. The cost of renovating a screen is 35 US dollars, a pair of 3D glasses is 3 US dollars, and [-]D cameras are expensive. Ordinary ones cost several million, and expensive ones cost thousands. Ten thousand. I think the price should have been revealed on the Dreamland official website now."

After Xiao Yunhai finished speaking, Kerry on the other side of the phone fell silent. After a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Professor. Xiao, you are a profiteer."

No wonder Kerry would say that.According to the price of Xiao Yun's poster, if 10 yuan needs to be transformed into a 3D screen, it will be 350 billion US dollars.

One screen corresponds to more than 200 seats, and more than 2000 million pairs of glasses are needed, which adds up to 60 billion US dollars.

There are also cameras, based on the most conservative calculation of [-] units, the income is tens of billions.

Although Xiao Yunhai couldn't earn all of it, even if he accounted for 50.00% of it, it would still be a lot of money.

Xiao Yunhai said with a smile: "I have invested one billion dollars in the research and development of 3D technology, and now is just the harvest season. Kerry, 3D movies have become the mainstream of the world. You MGM want to go to other theaters. In front of it, it is best to settle it now, and you can get some discounts. If you wait until after October, then the price will not be reduced."

Kerry smiled wryly, "I want to too, but we have no money."

Xiao Yunhai said: "Don't make me cry poorly. My shares in MGM were sold by you at a high price, and at least I can earn 30 billion U.S. dollars, plus the profit from that "Black Humor", how dare you say that you have no money. "

Kerry sighed: "You guys are too shrewd. But, unfortunately, I can't decide on such a big matter. Besides, even if the 2D screen is now changed to a 3D screen, where do you tell us to find the film?" source?"

Xiao Yunhai asked: "Then what do you mean by calling me?"

Kerry said: "Our MGM recently invited the great director Rowan Atkinson to spend a huge amount of money to shoot "Starcraft 2". Director Atkinson called the company after seeing your press conference Phone, want to make it into a 3D movie. That's why I'm looking for you, I hope you can sell us two 3D cameras, and it's best to let Director Atkinson go to your fantasy special effects company for training."

Without even thinking about it, Xiao Yunhai rejected Kerry's request, saying: "I will definitely not agree. Kerry, your actions have seriously affected my plan. In this world, nothing is as fast as monopolizing money. The reason why I want to shoot four superhero movies at one go is to release them one after another after the 2012D craze triggered by "3", so as to obtain a super high box office. Once I join your "Interstellar 2", yes For me, it's not a good thing."

Kerry said angrily: "I knew this was your intention a long time ago. Don't worry, our "Interstellar 2" will be screened after your four superhero movies. This will have no effect on you. This can be written in the agreement."

Xiao Yunhai also found that he seemed to be on the edge of a dead end, and said with a smile: "This is a good way. Okay, I agree. You can directly send the great director Rowan Atkinson to China, and I will talk to the person in charge of the fantasy special effects company. Say it."
