James Cameron is sitting on the sofa. As the world's top director, he has met countless film company bosses and investors. But not once has he been so nervous today, even when he was first invested, because the boss he wants to see today is the richest man in the world.
When Ralph told him that the boss wanted to see him, he was shocked. He never thought that Feng Yu, a big boss, would take the initiative to see him.
Of course, he is also very happy. He is the richest man in the world. It's his first time to see him.
He saw a young man in casual clothes coming in, followed by Ralph, CEO of wind and rain holding group, and knew that this man must be the richest man in the legend.
"Hello, Mr. Feng. This is James Cameron." Cameron quickly stood up and put out his hands.
Feng Yu simply set up with Cameron and sat on the sofa: "sit, don't be too nervous."
Cameron said to himself, "don't be nervous. Before you come in, your four bodyguards have searched me once, and I'm almost naked.".
"James, your Titanic, terminator series, true lies and so on, I like them very much, so I heard that the movie you always wanted to shoot was not invested, so I would ask Ralph to send someone to contact you." Feng Yuqiao raised his legs and leaned on the sofa.
"Thank you, Mr. Feng. I'm a director. It's my pleasure to let others like my film." When it comes to this, Cameron's face is full of color.
"It's just that you also have a title, burn money director, which is that one of your films will bring down a company. The Titanic has been proven by the time, which also leads to your new film, no one dares to invest. The return cycle is too long, the investment is too large, and the variables are too large. "
"But I have confidence in you, or I'm very optimistic about movies like 3D and IMAX, which will give the audience a more perfect visual experience. Our company has acquired AMC cinema, plus the original MGM cinema, we have the most 3D screens and IMAX screens. "
"And we are renovating cinemas to increase the number of 3D and IMAX screens. In the future, our movies will focus on the experience of watching movies. As we happen to know, that's what you're going to do with Avatar, or this movie series. "
When it comes to avatar, Cameron begins to talk about the selling points of the movie. He wants to prove to Feng Yu that the movie will make money and will never drift.
Feng Yu waved: "you don't have to say much about the plot. I understand what you mean. But don't you think it's too much to give consideration to politics, culture, environmental protection, religion, race and other aspects? I know you want to satirize people's arrogance, greed and ignorance through this, but don't forget that love is one of the eternal themes in the movie. "
"Do we have love or cross race love?" Cameron stressed.
"No, there is a problem in this. The story you just told me is clearly the embodiment of this human being who has had love with the women of the avatar nationality. But in addition to thinking, they are clearly a race in appearance and other aspects. The biggest opposition in this should be the contrast and interaction between the noumenon and the avatar. "
"The real body of the hero is so empty in the movie that he doesn't do anything. It's so different from Jack's and Rose's feelings. And you have very few people interacting with each other in front of you. You need to have a big scene in the back. It's cool and shocking, but it's hard to resonate emotionally, because you set a happy ending. "
"I'm not saying it's a bad ending, but how to shoot a sequel? Isn't your dream to make this a series? "
Cameron exulted: "Mr. Feng is willing to invest in a series for me, that would be better. Of course, I want to make him a series, which will be recorded in the history of movies! Of course, the ending can be changed a little. I will write the second play, so I can know how to connect with the first one. If Mr. Feng is a director, he must be one of the most successful directors
Feng Yu enjoyed Cameron's flattery, but he knew very well that he knew nothing about the director.
"Just understand. I'm very optimistic about you. Whether it's "Avatar" or the terminator series, there is a high demand for film technology. Many companies can't do this, but industrial polishing companies can. Wind and rain holding group is working with industrial polishing company to invest several hundred million US dollars to obtain the controlling right of industrial polishing. "
"In addition, we are also studying and becoming a shareholder in the production of Vita digital in the Lord of the rings series. Peter Jackson is also one of the directors I admire very much. We are also in contact with him to sign him and make epic works of magic series."
Feng Yu's mouth is good, but he doesn't care about the so-called magic epic. What is epic? It should be poetry of history. What do they have to do with history? The Lord of the rings is history? Or are hobbits history?
It should be said that they have created a new history, a fictional mythical history, just like the marvel world created by marvel.However, the epic that people generally recognize now is the type of Knight war in the middle ages. It seems that with the development of science and technology and the development of society, people increasingly want to see the stories of ancient times.
The so-called magic series is nothing more than to realize the scenes in people's dreams, such as magic, dragon and so on. In the past 50 years, too many technologies are considered as unrealistic black technologies. Even in the last ten years, there are technologies that many people can't imagine.
Smart phones, if they had appeared ten years ago, would have been black technology. Well, it is still useless black technology, because without other technical cooperation, it can not really be used.
When material life is satisfied, people begin to pursue spiritual life. Just like the ancient emperors, no matter which country they are in, they have the pursuit of longevity. Now people are the same. All kinds of science and technology that continue people's lives have been studied, and medicine can be regarded as one of these categories.
And people's thoughts, in fact, are very active, which can also be understood as a big brain hole. In the past, all kinds of hero comics are to satisfy people's psychology.
Now, comics are not enough. People are more looking forward to the scenes in front of them, such as movies.
So in the future, the proportion of film in culture will be more and more large. The enjoyment brought by film is the most intuitive.
"Mr. Feng, with the support of these two companies, we will soon finish the shooting task after we cooperate with other companies. I think this film may be released in advance."
"It doesn't matter. Work slowly and work carefully. I'm sure you won't let me down."
Looking at the dizzy Cameron, Feng Yu has a sense of achievement.
