Let you invest, and you can support half of the entertainment industry?

end of July.

Huo Hua and Lin Xinru got married.

Xu Jia looked at the newspaper in his hand and said in surprise: "You were not invited? Aren't you on good terms with Huo Hua?"

As far as he knew, Lao Hu, Shi Shi and her husband Thunder Tiger had all gone.

"Of course I received it, but I don't like Lin Xinru, so I have no plans to go." Yang Mi said casually.

Anyway, this was said to Xu Jia, and there were no outsiders around, so there was no need to avoid anything.

In fact, artists in the industry have collaborated with each other, and many relationships are limited to colleagues, which is completely different from personal friendships.

Xu Jia has never been cold to Lin Xinru.

Just from the fact that she once targeted Zhou Jie, it can be seen that she is definitely not a worry-free person.

Besides, Zhou Jie cooperates quite frequently with Jiaxing now.

"Tucao Conference" and "Mars Intelligence Agency" have appeared in several issues. This guy is upright and dares to say anything, which is quite effective in the program.

As for whether it can be broadcast, the program team controls the scale.

"It's okay if you don't go. You don't have to go back and have the media issue a bunch of random announcements. It won't be good if you are pressured by someone or someone else," Xu Jia said.

Yang Mi chuckled. At this time, Yan Ya was no longer new.

The first person to come out from Mr. Fan's house was always the media, Fan Bingbing smothering everyone on the red carpet.

Later, it was used to the extreme by celebrities from all walks of life. Now, Tian Ai appeared on LeTV last year, and the press release was called Qin.

Although he has gained a reputation, his reputation within the circle is extremely bad.

Not many people are happy to see such a guy. The main reason is that LeTV is short of people, especially those trained by its own projects, so they should be favored.

So most people held their noses and endured it.

The real good show will have to wait until next year when Boss Jia runs away. Without the support of his boss, this little flower will be able to keep a low profile.

After all, there are no resources for crazy thoughts.

"Lorenzo and director Joe are back, why don't you take a look? They may return to the United States in a while. After all, our special effects team and equipment are not as good as Warner's," Yang Mi said.

Xu Jia nodded, it was time to go.

The special effects team and equipment are not things he can improve if he wants to.

The former requires time to cultivate relevant talents, while the latter is even more difficult. Due to technical difficulties and the low-end of the industry, it is difficult for him to buy them even if he spends a lot of money.

They are advanced there because there are enough crews using similar special effects.

To be precise, there is a market.

On the Chinese side, the special effects of some crews have degraded to what they were years ago.

Can you believe that the decisive battle at the Forbidden City in "Love Apartment 3" is called the pinnacle of special effects in domestic TV dramas?

In short, the efforts of Jiaxing and his family alone are not enough to improve this area.

The two went to the post-editing room upstairs.

Lorenzo and Joe were arguing, one blushing more than the other.

"All the focus is on this monster, neither Statham nor Young is as important as it, so I can't tolerate the appearance of a stupid and strange giant animal in my movie. It is going to be a disaster. It used to be scary, otherwise it would just make our movie look fake." Joe yelled loudly and pounded the table.

On the contrary, Lorenzo seemed much calmer: "Joe, you have to understand that the movie is not your work alone. We have budget constraints. What you said may seem light, but the amount of money it will cost to implement the special effects will be huge." Tens or even hundreds of millions of dollars, you know?”

No wonder there is a quarrel. One is the producer who is responsible for the overall budget, including the budget, and the other is the director who is responsible for the quality and effects of the film.

Disputes arise too easily.

Just when Qiao was about to compromise and find another way to solve the problem.

Xu Jia walked in and said in an unquestionable voice: "Just do what Qiao said. We have spent enough money on this movie. If necessary, I can continue to increase the budget."

It would be a real disaster if the megalodon in "The Meg" got stupid and weird.

Ninety percent of the reason for the success of "The Meg" in the previous life was that the Megalodon was filmed in such a terrifying manner.

Otherwise, how could Jason Statham, who was born in B-movies, and Yang Mi, a strange actress from China, become a big hit in the North American film market?

"Of course, the movie can't just have monster elements. We also need to show the wonder of the underwater world, the fight between humans and beasts, and the warmth of family."

Xu Jia shrugged his shoulders, "After all, you know very well that our purpose in making this movie is definitely not just to bring those audiences who like blood and gore into the cinema."

This is the limitation of B-level movies. He planned to make this movie a family entertainment.

It is difficult for one group alone to support the box office of a movie.

"Wow, Xu, you know more about movies and the North American market than I thought. If every Chinese investor was as smart as you, I think they would have successfully entered Hollywood long ago." Lorenzo exaggerated The ground opened its mouth wide and flattered Xu Jia.

Then he paused and said the crux of the problem: "But what about Warner? Those on the board of directors will not be willing to continue to pay money from the company's account. In their view, those are their year-end dividends. These damn things All the guys are vampires lying on the group."

It can be heard that Lorenzo is very resentful towards the directors of Warner Group.

Otherwise, he wouldn't be forced to stand on the same front as Xu Jia.

"It doesn't matter, I will inform the people at Warner that if they don't pay the money, we Jiaxing are willing to cover it all. It will only take greater risks, but we will also get higher returns." Xu Jia sneered.

Making movies is sometimes similar to Texas Hold'em poker. If you don't dare to play, you will lose everything.

But if you continue to gamble, who knows whether more sunk costs will increase?

But Xu Jiagan is sure that Warner will not give up.

Because what makes gamblers even more angry is that they win money despite having a weak hand, rather than losing everything.

"Qiao, after you return to the United States, you can start contacting the special effects team. Based on your standards, if there is any situation that Lorenzo cannot decide here, you can call me."

"Thank you for your trust. I think I will live up to this trust. For special effects, I will ask the Scanline VFX team to design the dynamic movements of the megalodon. They are good at designing complex fluid special effects."

Director Qiao stood up and assured Xu Jia with gratitude that this rare trust was very important to him, a relatively unknown director.

After all, whether this movie can be successful or not is also related to his future career.

Xu Jia didn’t know much about these special effects teams, but that didn’t stop him from knowing that this was a good opportunity to steal someone’s skills, so he said, “Then please bring some of our Jiaxing people with you. They will act as helpers. Although their abilities may not be as good as the others. But it will certainly reduce work stress.”

Qiao naturally knew Xu Jia's intention, but he agreed without even thinking about it.

Anyway, it’s the uncle who provides the money. What’s wrong with the uncle’s conditions?
