Legendary Hollywood Director

Chapter 461 Special effects work

Early the next morning, Lyman pulled Thomas again.

After meeting, this guy is still habitually complaining, saying that the preparation work can be done by others, but he can't.

But Lehman ignored this. This guy is not aggressive. If Lehman hadn't forced him to take on more work, he would definitely not be willing to take over the production rights.

However, several of them knew Yu Weimo, and Lehman still wanted to give him a hand.

He laughed and said: Life is a constant tossing, what are you doing all the time. You don't have any 'American Dream' in your thinking.

Thomas replied: What kind of dream, I can make money to support myself.

Afterwards, Lehman began to talk nonsense again, and persuaded a few random words. In short, Thomas, you must be motivated. If you don’t do it, you will be sorry for the country, the people, and your hometown for your support.

Is it easy for us to get a foothold in America? Can't slack off.

Thomas' face turned green when he was told, and he reluctantly responded, and Lehman stopped lecturing and pouring chicken soup.

Thomas scratched his head, Then why did you come to see me?

Lyman patted him on the shoulder, The organization wants to give you a task...

Before Lehman could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Thomas: Don't, I'm busy enough, I can't squeeze any time. Really, you can find someone else. Ryan, Garcia...who It's fine, but I can't.

No? No! Laimanjia patted him on the shoulder with all his strength, and patted him as soon as he said a word.

Thomas finally begged for mercy: Forget it, you can say anything, I'll do it, I'll do it.

Lyman stopped, smiled again, and was relieved when he explained the situation to Thomas.

It turned out to be looking for a special effects company to discuss shooting, I'll accompany you.

Lehman also said: In terms of special effects, there are only a few famous ones in Hollywood. I thought about going to the digital field to see what their quotations are. I heard someone say yesterday that the business ability in the digital field is very good, and the price is also good. Not the most expensive.

Digital Realm? Isn't that Cameron's special effects studio. Are we looking for this one?

James Cameron is a well-known tech freak, with more than half of his net worth invested in the digital realm.

After all, one of the special effects companies at this time was one, and they were all trading at a loss.

First, because the competition pressure is too great, there are too many companies in the market that can do special effects for movies, and there are too few business demands;

Second, because of the application of new technologies, it is always necessary to continuously invest in research in order to produce something.

Lehman nodded, The business level in the digital field is still very strong. We can go to this one first.

......

......

What's the matter with the two of you?

There are several shots in a movie that need special effects.

do you have any requests?

Can we go see your company first.

sure.

After Lyman and Thomas called the digital realm,

Not long after, someone came up to greet him. This white man who looks a little premature, a typical Silicon Valley practitioner's streamlined dress, can even be said to be a white man who doesn't pay much attention to his dress is called Bossy, said to be 28 years old, but he looks like 35 or 6 years old.

He wasn't very polite either. He figured out that Lehman and Thomas belonged to the type of people with business needs, and immediately agreed to take them to the company to have a look.

The group drove from Burbank and took about 20 minutes to get to the office of Digital Domain.

But after arriving, Thomas had some undisguised doubts.

In fact, Lehmann was also a little surprised.

According to Bossi, this is an ordinary residential area, with the kind of desolation and lack of infrastructure unique to the suburbs on the edge of Los Angeles, and the housing types are also a bit old.

Is it here? Thomas still couldn't help asking.

Well, just a little bit ahead.

Bossy is more natural.

The three of them walked along the damp alley, and the clutter of the building could easily make people lose their way.

All in all, it seems inconspicuous, as if it is impossible for a company like the digital space to fall here.

Unfortunately, Thomas was disappointed.

The headquarters of the digital realm is really here.

After walking for about 3 or 4 minutes, in the upper left of a low building, there is a slightly worn light sign, which is the name of the studio.

Bossy made a phone call before pushing the door open.

After walking in, there wasn't even a reception desk, or maybe, Bossy was their receptionist and was also a guest receptionist.

Anyway, what Ryman could see was a wide space like a warehouse, with a bunch of desks on both sides. Also messy style.

The whole place highlights the aesthetics of a unique technical otaku, but there is no trace of art.

Good morning, Mr. Ryman.

A white man in his 30s, with glasses and a cup of coffee in his hand, walked over quickly and greeted warmly.

They have business needs, it should be a new movie. Bossy stepped forward and reminded in a low voice.

Afterwards, the reception became more warm.

They walked around and found that except for the layout and decoration, it was not very conspicuous, but it had everything, and the area was quite large, and there were several similar warehouses behind it. Not too many employees, not too few.

Perhaps it is precisely because this is a suburb that the office area can be so large. Both are more spacious than Lyman's Firefly.

After walking around, a few people sat in an office again.

Lehman considered his intentions, and after meeting his own needs, the coffee man said, You want us to take over the special effects work of the movie. This is just right, we don't have any important projects in the near future, so we can focus on you all. side.

What about the price?

Is this? It mainly depends on the workload and time. If you invest more energy, it will be more expensive. If it is easy to do, it will be less.

Similar to the Alien series of monster shots, as well as the rendering of several scenes, the overall workload should not be large. Can you make a concept map first? We need to see the effect before deciding whether to hire you to participate in the project. production. Lehmann said.

It's natural, but the concept map also needs...

How much? Lyman interrupted.

Five working days, $80,000.

What if I'm not satisfied with the renderings?

This, we must be careful, there will be multiple options. The coffee man explained weakly.

Asking him, a science graduate, to negotiate is really lacking in momentum, and the basic topic direction can be taken away by Lehman.

Well, that's it, I'll pay 50,000 as a deposit first, and then pay 30,000 if I'm satisfied, what do you think? Laiman didn't ask any more about the alternatives and couldn't make anyone sure what would happen, so he just gave his own. condition.

Uh, yes, you can come back in five days.
