Rebirth of the Entertainment Master

The CEO's Office of Huaxia Huafeng International Cinema

Li Rongguang asked Li Xuyang, his son in front of him, and said, "How much impact do you think the news released by Mengmeng will have on us?"

On his computer, the opened interface is the homepage of Dream Special Effects Company.

Li Xuyang thought about it, and said: "The original 3D special effects technology led the film revolution all over the world, if the viewing effect achieved by IMAX3D technology is really as good as the fantasy special effects company said, then it is likely to become popular in the world again. "

Li Rongguang sighed, and said: "The original 3D technology made Xiao Yunhai earn at least 500 billion US dollars. Now that IMAX3D technology pops up suddenly, it is estimated that he can make a lot of money again. Hehe, I It’s a tough feeling to feel like our theaters have become his ATMs.”

Li Xuyang said with a wry smile: "Other movie theater owners probably feel the same way as you do. But we have no other choice. Just like 3D technology, if we don't use it, we will be completely defeated in the next competition. And IMAX3D technology is very Probably too."

At this moment, Li Rongguang's secretary walked in with a red invitation card and said, "Boss, this is an invitation card from Dream Special Effects Image Company."

Li Rongguang took the invitation, waved his hand and said, "Go out."

The secretary agreed, turned and left.

Li Rongguang opened the invitation, read it again, and said, "Xiao Yunhai invited us to enjoy the IMAX 28D special effects technology at the Dream Special Effects Company at 3 am on December [-]."

Li Xuyang narrowed his eyes, and said puzzledly: "Why is this? You must know that with the lessons learned from 3D technology, everyone will definitely take the initiative to talk to Xiao Yunhai about IMAX3D. I don't understand why he would go so far as to make it so formal What about it? Do all movie theater owners have such an invitation card?"

Li Rongguang said: "No matter what he wants to do, we have to go. Xuyang, try to find out about IMAX3D technology. On the 28th, you can go for me. Hehe, I am old, and it is time to retire It's time, Huafon International Cinema will depend on you from now on."

Li Xuyang nodded heavily.

Chapter 1397 Influence

The same scene also happened to other theater owners, and their views on IMAX3D technology were surprisingly consistent.

And the people who have a very good relationship with Xiao Yunhai directly put the phone to Xiao Yunhai, such as Kerry.

Ever since Xiao Yunhai became the richest man in the world, his contact with Kerry has gradually decreased.In the past, Xiao Yunhai often asked him for help, but now he no longer needs it.

However, this did not affect the friendship between the two, and they still spoke very casually.

Kerry said: "Xiao, what are you doing? How long has it been since 3D technology came out? How did you come up with IMAX 3D technology so quickly?"

Xiao Yunhai said with a chuckle: "There is no way, who makes our R&D team awesome."

Kerry sighed and said: "It seems that this time you will make a lot of money again. Tell me, how much does it cost to build such an IMAX 3D theater? I can prepare in advance so that I won't be caught off guard in the end."

Xiao Yunhai said: "Maybe I'm going to disappoint you. Our company hasn't set the exact price yet, and we haven't even calculated its cost. However, compared to ordinary 3D theaters, it's at least several times more expensive. You'd better It’s good to be prepared.”

"How many times more expensive than 3D?" Kerry gasped, and then cursed: "Xiao, you are such a big profiteer. Businessmen from all over the world are as kind as a simple little girl in front of you." Like."

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said, "I will take your words as a compliment. Kerry, how is your TV rating recently?"

Kerry snorted, and said, "Generally, it only ranked eighth in China last month."

Xiao Yunhai said: "Such grades are already very good. No matter how you hear your luck, it seems that you are not happy."

Kerry said resentfully: "Then who is going to share it with? Compared with your Yunqing TV station, our MGM is a scum, no, it is worse than a scum. The "Prison Break" you shot directly made Yunqing The TV station’s overall audience rating reached 12.84%, while the No.2 Central TV set only had a pitiful 1.24%, which is not one-tenth of yours. Our MGM is even worse, and we haven’t even broken through one percent. Now each Do you know what the big TV station is looking forward to the most?"

Xiao Yunhai asked in surprise: "What is it?"

Kerry said: "I hope you will never make TV series again, and it is best to go back to the film industry."

Xiao Yunhai laughed loudly, and said: "This is another compliment to me. I like to hear it so much."

The two laughed and laughed, and then hung up the phone.

Who knew that within a minute, Wu Yifa called again.

He is the major shareholder of Yanhuang Cinema and is also very interested in IMAX3D technology.

In a whole afternoon, Xiao Yunhai answered more than 30 calls. It was either from the theater owner or a celebrity hired by the theater owner who had a good relationship with Xiao Yunhai.Finally, simply shut down the machine directly.

Zhao Wanqing was very clear about the IMAX3D technology. Xiao Yunhai had told her all about it when she came back. Seeing those bosses calling to inquire, she couldn't help laughing and said, "Husband, if you let them know that building an IMAX3D theater requires a thousand With $500 million, what would they look like?"

Xiao Yunhai shrugged and said, "Laughing is probably like crying. This thing is indeed too expensive, but the effect is indeed much better than ordinary 3D."

Zhao Wanqing asked, "Then when are you going to shoot an IMAX3D movie?"

Last time, in order to make 3D movies popular all over the world, Xiao Yunhai filmed the unprecedented disaster blockbuster "2012", which made movie fans fall in love with 3D screen thoroughly.Now that the 3D trend has passed, movie fans are no longer crazy about 3D movies, Xiao Yunhai has created an IMAX3D movie, so Zhao Wanqing feels that her husband will definitely make an IMAX3D movie.

Unexpectedly, Xiao Yunhai shook his head and said: "Even if we want to shoot, it will definitely not be me. Do the math, our concert will take at least two months, so there is no time to make movies. What's more, once these theaters The boss has installed an IMAX3D big screen, and those film companies have to go completely crazy for the first IMAX3D movie. You must know that this is an opportunity to leave a strong mark in the history of movies. I know myself, and I must make a movie without them. Quick. So, forget it.”

Zhao Wanqing said: "Then are you so sure that IMAX 3D technology can be sold well? You know, one hundred movie theaters is worth 5000 billion [-] million U.S. dollars. Ordinary movie theater owners probably don't have this strength."

Nowadays, the competition in the film market is fierce, there are so many theaters, and the share ratio between theater chains and investors has been reduced, making life difficult for theater owners.

Take Xiao Yunhai's New China Cinemas as an example. Except for those blockbuster movies, the average attendance rate of general movies is only a mere 20.00%, which is not bad.Some theaters, like Baihua, are almost out of business. It is reported that their average attendance rate last month did not exceed [-]%.

It would cost 3 million or US dollars to build an IMAX 500D theater, which is undoubtedly a huge sum of money for them.

Xiao Yunhai said: "I used to think so too, but I don't think so now. The more intense the competition in the film industry, the less I will worry about selling. As long as one theater asks to transform it into an IMAX3D theater that day, do you think other theater owners can do it?" Can you sit still? With the lessons learned from 3D movies, I don’t believe that they can’t break through their psychological defense.”

Zhao Wanqing rolled her eyes at him and said, "Honey, you are really cunning. By the way, do you have any work plans for next year?"

Xiao Yunhai thought for a while, and said: "First of all, there must be an album. There are so many new songs in our concert. It would be a pity if we didn't make it into a re-album. Originally, we only planned to make one, but with my For the songs created in the middle, one record must not be too small, so just two. Then I plan to make a movie, which is "Zhu Xian" that I wanted to shoot before."

Xiao Yunhai wanted to make "Zhu Xian", it was not a matter of a day or two.It was put down because the cost was too high, the special effects technology was not good enough, and there was not that much money.

Now he earns more than ten lifetimes to spend, and the strength of Dream and Magic special effects company is one of the best in the world, plus this IMAX3D technology, so Xiao Yunhai plans to start filming "Zhu Xian".

Zhao Wanqing had developed a strong interest in the script of "Zhu Xian" before, especially Baguio's willingness to die for Zhang Xiaofan's love moved her to tears.

Hearing that Xiao Yunhai was going to shoot "Zhu Xian", Zhao Wanqing immediately gave an order, saying: "Husband, listen, the two roles of Bi Yao and Zhang Xiaofan must be me and you, do you understand?"

Although Zhao Wanqing is a world-class actress, if she were to act opposite to other actors, her emotional expression would definitely not be as strong as that of Xiao Yunhai.

Xiao Yunhai smiled and said: "I think so too. However, there are so many characters in "Zhu Xian", in terms of actor selection, some brain cells have to be wasted."

Zhao Wanqing said: "I think you'd better settle the issue of actors during the concert, otherwise they might not have a schedule yet."

Xiao Yunhai nodded, and said: "Not only that, the post-production is about to start now. The production of things like the three-eyed spirit monkey Xiaohui, the gatekeeper beasts of Qingyunmen, and various magical weapons and magic weapons all need to be started in advance. Otherwise, I might not be able to meet the fans for two years."

Zhao Wanqing smiled and said, "Husband, have you noticed that you are taking longer and longer to film a film and television drama now?"

Xiao Yunhai was taken aback for a moment, thinking about it, this really happened.

Chapter 1398

It took less than a month to shoot the first movie "Charlotte Annoyance", and the TV series "Love Apartment" was even better, it only took 2012 days, and the following "If You Are the One" and "Jing Wu Heroes" did not exceed two months. months, but the recent "[-]", "The Grandmaster" and even the TV series "Prison Break" are very time-consuming.

Even though Xiao Yunhai has become indifferent to fame and fortune, he has to admit that he is still burdened by fame.

Xiao Yunhai's position in the film and television industry is almost unmatched by anyone, which makes him more strict with his works, and cannot tolerate any flaws, so the production time of his recent works has been much longer than before.Even for TV series like "Prison Break", which is not cumbersome in post-production, it takes longer than "Langya Bang".
