Reborn to create a virtual world

Blossoms bloom inside the wall and fragrance outside the wall, which is probably the case.

According to Lin Shu's original plan, he did not intend to invest in theaters, at least not at this time.Lin Shu is currently well-funded, but the money to build theaters is too huge. Now there are not many films and the stalls are not big, so it's not a big deal, but once the stalls are spread out, there will be more things to deal with.

Of course, operating a theater is not without profit, at least the current two screening halls are making a lot of money for Xingying.However, once the stall is expanded, it will be very troublesome to operate, and it is necessary to deal with various organizations.Lin Shu has many ways to make money, but his energy is limited, so he is not that interested in this area.

In his ideal way of development, it is best to directly cooperate with some existing theaters to develop or sell stereoscopic projection equipment to each other.Although the profit is a bit short in this way, it pays back quickly and has less trouble, which is more suitable for Star Trail.Who knows that the projection crystal has been on the market for so long, and the three-dimensional movie theater is also earning a lot of income every day, but so far it is impossible to wait for the first person who is willing to eat crabs.

There are many people who wait and see, but few people who are decisive.

The star track technology department is not a vegetarian either, but those who can run a theater or even a theater chain are big bosses, and it is not so easy to convince them. They need real cases to prove that this thing can really make money, and then they will Willing to sell, so the sales of all parties are almost still at a stalemate.

Lin Shu also felt that there might be a stalemate for a while.

Unexpectedly, at this time, PISCAL and Holly City on the other side of the earth extended an olive branch to Star Trail.

PISCAL wanted to purchase stereoscopic photography technology from Star Trail, but after negotiating with the official, it decided to directly purchase two sets of shooting equipment, and the theater chain with its siblings hoped to build several experimental theaters in Kariyema , if the effect is good, it will be extended to the entire theater.

As soon as the news came out, the domestic industry suddenly fell into a boil.After the news was confirmed, several large companies in China that had not been in talks tentatively began to talk about the cinema with Xingzeshang, and the effect was even more outstanding than that of Yunnan Baiyao.

Lin Shu was also convinced.

Speaking of which, although the domestic atmosphere of worshiping foreigners and foreign countries has become less serious in the past ten years, the custom of worshiping Dongqing City's film circle in the film and television circle has not changed much.With the return of copyright awareness, good dramas and movies in China have been continuously emerging during this period, but there has never been a phenomenal masterpiece like "Titanic".

Half of this may indeed be a problem of the director's ability and talent, and the other half is a problem of the system and operating methods in the circle.

Domestically, there is a lack of a sense of rules and regulations, and the awareness of cooperative investment output.This makes it difficult to have a film that can integrate the resources of most companies. Many leaders in related industries do not operate their companies with a business sense, but make decisions with a sense of boss and boss.As a result, personal relationships are often even ranked ahead of interests. Once or twice is enough. If there are too many times, the atmosphere in the circle will be a bit subtle, and the pace of development will be very slow.

Although Lin Shu doesn't want to get involved in this industry too deeply, but generally speaking, he still hopes that all walks of life in the country can develop well.

But this kind of thing has to be done step by step, first of all, it has to strengthen the social influence of itself and Xingzhe, and then it can have a say in all aspects.Lin Shu is a very realistic person. He has a lot of ideas, but he rarely complains. Whenever he is dissatisfied, he either plans to do something directly when he looks back, or he calms down and thinks about ways to accumulate strength first.

The contract with PISCAL was negotiated fairly smoothly, mainly because the purchase of technology was changed to an equipment purchase contract, and there was less room for negotiation.However, the PISCAL incident made Lin Shu think about the overseas market, and felt that it was necessary to set up promotion sites in several important foreign markets to actively open up overseas markets.

After several meetings, Xingying and Xinggui each finalized their short-term development routes.At this time, the output of the factory also increased significantly. After estimating the current production capacity, Lin Shu began to plan to launch the projection crystal for home use, and decided to release the movie data card of "The Witch's Journey" at the same time, and "Afterimage of Death" a month later. .

The new three-dimensional film shooting arrangement has also been written on the schedule.

There is no problem with animated films. At present, Star Films has one under planning, and one is halfway through production.However, there is a problem with the live-action movie. The box office of "Afterimage of Death" is not cheap. Although there are only two screening halls, the ticket price is high, the number of shows is high, and there is no saying that it will be lowered in the short term. Lin Zewen's assets are almost Doubling every once in a while.In addition to the agreed share, Lin Shu also gave him a big red envelope.

Lin Zewen can be said to have become rich overnight.

But youth are not satisfied with the present situation.After all, the influence of three-dimensional movies is too small, so he is more eager to shoot a real public release movie.

Lin Shu used him very well this time, and originally wanted to continue the cooperation, but after learning about Lin Zewen's plan, he had no choice but to give up regretfully and find someone else to shoot a new film.

Fortunately, there are two films that have been filmed with good overall evaluation and popularity, which proves that stereoscopic projection technology is not unsuitable for filming.In addition, Star Trail has already received a large number of theater equipment orders at this time, and the number of stereoscopic projection halls will increase soon. The prospect is obviously different from that of more than a year ago.

When Lin Shu contacted Director Chen this time, he didn't immediately refuse, but expressed that he wanted to read the script first.

The script prepared by Xingze was also carefully selected. It was adapted from a short story by a well-known author. The title is "Time Inversion". The story of a magical journey.

The hero originally had a happy childhood, but this happiness only lasted until he was 13 years old.That year, his parents were busy with work and were often away from home. A frenzied fugitive broke into the house. His older sister, who was one year older, made him escape from the house, but she was brutally killed.

The happy family fell apart, and the parents began to blame each other from then on, suffering terribly. That scene was deeply imprinted in the hero's memory, and it has been unforgettable for many years.

Eleven years later, my mother was terminally ill, and what she could not forget was the day when the accident happened. The lock of the safety window was not repaired at home. When she was in a daze, she sternly told her son to go home and change the lock, and he would go right away.After the hero left the hospital, he saw the back of a man in a blue dress on the street, just like his grown-up sister.He chased the other person all the way to a corner shop, only to realize that he had admitted the wrong person.

The woman invited him into the shop and then invited him for a cup of tea.It was a messy grocery store, dealing in some magical props that were completely symbolic.After listening to the hero tell her own story, the woman gave him a pendant she called the "Gem of Time" and told him a mysterious legend.After the hero brought the time gem home, he involuntarily begged the so-called time gem, which he didn't believe, to bring him back to the day before the accident at the age of 13, and then he really went back to the past.

The re-encounter with his sister was tinged with fantasy, but after some twists and turns, he managed to save his sister's life and help the police catch the criminal.The future is changed.

His parents didn't suffer from it, and although he was still in shock when he was young, he didn't become gloomy either.He was very happy, but he couldn't find the way back, and at the same time he began to struggle. When he returned to the future, would his memory and the past really change?

However, at this time, successive crises began to happen to my sister...

After reading the whole script, Director Chen couldn't help but praise it a few times, and said, "Yes, this story is interesting. The plot line is simple but unexpected... Well, but the requirements for actors are quite high. The 14-year-old sister... this should be the role prepared for Hu Pingting, right?"

This is true.

Lin Shu said: "At present, there are not many young actors who can play this role. If I can, I will regard her as my first choice."

Director Chen asked again: "Where's the leading actor?"

Lin Shu said, "Probably Yu Xinzhen."

Yu Xinzhen acted in a TV series today, and he became popular very quickly, but he has never been the leading role in a movie. Director Chen wondered why Lin Shu chose him, and asked, "Why Yu Xinzhen?"

Lin Shu replied: "Because his age and acting skills are suitable. And he and Ju Mingfeng are cousins, so it's easier to invite."

Director Chen was stunned for a moment before he realized who Ju Mingfeng was—Lin Shu's friend who had a completely different personality from him, and another minority shareholder of Xingze.

Not many three-dimensional theaters have been built yet. Although three-dimensional movies are well received, the future is uncertain, and it may not be possible to find particularly important actors.Yu Xinzhen is actually quite a good actor.

Director Chen pondered for a moment, and finally made a decision: "Bring me the script and read it again. I also need to study your camera equipment a little bit, and I will come to you when I am familiar with it. Give me two weeks first."

That should almost be a deal.

Lin Shu looked happy and said, "Okay. Let's get in touch then."

After negotiating with Director Chen, Lin Shu contacted Yu Xinzhen and Hu Pingting respectively.He and Yu Xinzhen are somewhat connected. This person is very interested in the products of Xingze Xinggui, and he will give Lin Shu some feedback and express his feelings from time to time. When "Afterimage of Death" started filming, he expressed his willingness to try three-dimensional movies, but unfortunately there was no suitable role at that time.

Both parties are willing, so it is very easy to invite, and they immediately entered the stage of planning the itinerary.

But Hu Pingting is more troublesome. She usually follows Lin Shu too much. She feels like she sold herself to him after saving her once from a gangster. Lin Shu usually says anything casually, and the girl will not hesitate. Agree hesitantly, and definitely do it well.This made it very difficult for Lin Shu to ask for something from her, because he felt a little bit repayable.

If he wants to speak, Hu Pingting will definitely agree as much as possible no matter whether it is convenient or not.

Lin Shu felt awkward, so she asked Ju Mingfeng to contact him, since they were all classmates anyway.
