"What? Make a 3D animated movie?"
Ma Rao, who was in the United States, had just gotten up when he received a call from Li Fanyu. Recently he is preparing for the filming of "Rescue 2". However, Liam Neeson, who became popular because of "Taken" and is showing off his second career career, has schedule issues. There is currently no confirmed start date for filming.
Hearing that Li Fanyu said that he wanted to make an animation movie, this Chinese director who has already created a style in Hollywood was a little confused.
"This challenge is really big," Ma Rao said honestly.
He does understand animation movies. In fact, as one of the leading directors in the country, he has been exposed to 3D special effects production many times as a producer of some big scenes. But as a traditional director, he still felt a little guilty when he thought about directing without facing the actors or the camera, and only facing the computer.
"No, I won't be on board this time. Do you want SOI to find another director?"
Li Fanyu was very relaxed, "Don't worry, Director Ma, it's all the same. Think about it, if you don't have actors and only face 3D models to make movies, wouldn't you have greater freedom? You can cut the picture how you want. You can play the role however you want, I feel happy for you just thinking about it."
Ma Raohe is not a layman. Of course, he cannot have such a good attitude and simple thinking as Li Fanyu.
"It's easy for you to say! Every frame and frame of 3D movie production requires manpower and money. I have no experience in making this type of movie. Not to mention how much more it costs, how can the effect of the arrangement be good? Don't That's nonsense. I won't take this job. You can hire Gao Ming. At most, I can only supervise you. I have experience in making feature films and can help you grasp the rhythm, but I really want to provide specific guidance. I don’t dare to go up. This is not because I don’t want to give you face, but it’s for your own good, you know?”
Ma Rao refused very simply.
Li Fanyu had no choice but to hang up the phone depressedly. It's not that he doesn't want to find a professional, it's just that he doesn't have any professionals in this field on hand right now.
After thinking for a while, he picked up the phone and called Zhou Qingyu.
Zhou Qingyu was also abroad and seemed to be still sleeping when she received a call from Li Fanyu: "Hello? Why are you calling so early?"
When Li Fanyu said depressedly that he wanted to shoot a 3D animated movie, Zhou Qingyu over there pursed his lips and smiled.
"You, how can you be so troublesome? If I haven't seen you for a few days, I must have done something wrong. But even Director Ma can't do this job, so what's the use of you looking for me? You This is an animated film, and I can’t direct it or act in it.”
"Isn't this just asking you to come up with a solution?" Li Fanyu was depressed. Things deviated from the plan. He was really a Japanese dog.
"Yeah," Zhou Qingyu on the other side of the phone responded softly when he heard Li Fanyu say this. Then there was the sound of getting up and the sound of curtains being pulled.
"Well, I'm currently studying at an art school in Paris. Not far away is a film school, and there are many students in the class who are engaged in art film production. I'll ask you later to see if they have What resources.”
"Okay, I'll ask SOI to look for a team in this area. You can also ask over there, money is definitely not a problem." Li Fanyu emphasized.
After chatting for a while, Zhou Qingyu hung up the phone.
Li Fanyu immediately called Donald Williams, the head of SOI Film and Television Company, and told him that he wanted to prepare to shoot a 3D animation movie, and asked him to find a production team and director.
I got the instructions over there and went to raise funds immediately. Li Fanyu was once again involved in the I8 matter.
In his spare time during research and development, he was not idle either. He searched online for domestic talents in this field.
But what disappoints him is that domestic producers are basically the kind of players like Xi Langlang, Hui Taiyang, Here Comes the Bear, or Pigman who consume younger fans.
There are really not many that are successful.
Searching for domestic animation movies, most of them are works that are crudely produced and have empty plots. The only ones that stand out are the two science fiction short films that are relatively popular on Station B.
These two short videos were released by an UP owner named QAQ. It is said to be this person's self-made work. The production looks a bit simple, but the plot and pictures show his wild imagination and very high plot arrangement ability.
At that time, Li Fanyu contacted many parties but did not get a response from the UP owner.
SOI belongs to the American branch of Zhengxin. That guy Mason is a typical American leader who pursues high efficiency in everything.
Within two days, SOI got a reply.
The person who called to report was still Donald Williams: "Oh, the boss and the production team of the animated film are not a problem. As long as you have money, it is not difficult to get together. But the animation director... is not easy to handle. ”
"What?" Li Fanyu hurriedly asked after hearing the answer from the other party.
“3D animation has become very popular in recent years, and directors who have made good works are the favorites of various companies. Moreover, in the field of 3D animated films, big companies like Pixar, Disney, and Universal are the most popular It is a place where directors realize their ambitions. Therefore, directors who are somewhat famous have long-term contracts with the company, not to mention those who are particularly famous. The few who are all are from the above three companies. It’s not a matter of money to hire a director. In short, it’s hard to find a good director.”
Hearing this news, Li Fanyu Zhener felt like he was being screwed.
TMD!
Still have a problem that money can’t solve?
"Just tell me how much money it will cost to hire a good director for me." He directly transformed into a domineering president and said.
"Well, if you have to spend money... maybe 50 million US dollars plus a share of the box office?"
"Okay!" Li Fanyu waved his hand, "Let's leave it like this for now, and I'll think of a solution later."
Fifty million?
Dollars?
A director?
MMP!
Had you known what kind of car it was? Damn, go learn directing!
This is so valuable!
Putting down the phone, Li Fanyu was still shocked by the numbers Tang Na mentioned; he vaguely remembered that in the previous time and space, the production cost of "Super Marines" was only 130 million.
Fifty million US dollars, plus box office share. Wouldn’t that take up half of the film’s production cost? He can afford the money, but the input and output are not directly proportional, so the deal is not worthwhile.
After being depressed all night, when he was about to go to bed, he received a call from Zhou Qingyu.
"I've been asking around a lot in the past two days, and finally you found a few people. These people are not very qualified, but their abilities seem to be pretty good."
When he heard that his qualifications were not very high, Li Fanyu instantly lost interest.
Hearing his silence, Zhou Qingyu over there smiled and said: "Anyway, my mission is completed. I don't care if these people are coming. Their previous works have been sent to your mailbox. Go. Take a look if you're interested."
After hanging up Zhou Qingyu's call, Li Fan turned on his computer out of boredom and logged in to his mailbox. Complete the download of several large attachments in the latest email.
When he saw the second copy, he was stunned.
Wochao,
Isn’t this a QAQ work?
He immediately picked up the phone and called Zhou Qingyu, "Qingyu, in the second work you sent, is that person in your school?"
Zhou Qingyu on the other side of the phone smiled sweetly, "Ah, are you talking about Qiao Ai?"
Li Fanyu quickly flipped through the email and saw that the name on the attachment read "Qiao Ai's Works" and immediately said: "That's right! It's Qiao Ai!"
"Haha, I knew you would definitely be interested in that child."
"What?" Li Fan was confused, "Child?"
"Yes. My child. The youngest student in this class of the Academy of Fine Arts. He is only nineteen years old this year."
"Um..."
Li Fan was confused - Master... met a prodigy?
