In Dean Shen's office, Dean Shen looked at Wu Jianye with some confusion. Just now Wu Jianye came to the college and found him, saying that he wanted to donate a batch of equipment to the college to develop the college's expertise in film special effects. Research, if it was just an ordinary donation, Dean Shen would naturally be very happy.
But when Dean Shen knew the price of this batch of equipment, he couldn't help but look at Wu Jianye. Without him, these equipment were too expensive. For Wu Jianye, a teaching assistant who rarely came to the college, Dean Shen couldn't help but look at Wu Jianye. I still appreciate it very much. First of all, Wu Jianye's international reputation has greatly improved the influence of Yanjing Film Academy itself.
At the same time, he has seen Wu Jianye's contribution to the film academy. He has already donated a lot to the academy before, and now he has to spend a large amount of money to buy the best special effects equipment in the world, so that the academy can As a student studying in a major department, how could he not appreciate such a talent?
At the same time, Dean Shen also has some other worries.
"If it is true, as you said, that the future production of the movie will rely on these special effects, then will the movie lose its original authenticity?"
As an old-school filmmaker, Director Shen pursues the effect of real-life shooting more, and is a little worried about the kind of shooting described by Wu Jianye.
Wu Jianye said: "This is an inevitable process for the development of film. Now our college has no way to open a special branch like this, so it should be no problem to open such an elective course, and you don't want our country to have such an elective course in the future. Isn’t film technology so far behind the world’s advanced level?”
"Have you seen America's "Star Wars"? I think film technology will definitely use various special effects techniques more and more frequently in the future. If nothing else, it will be my next movie, which is a science fiction movie. A lot of special effects technology will be used. If there are talents in this field in our academy, I will also bring them to Hollywood to learn."
Dean Shen nodded. As the dean of the top film school in the country, Dean Shen believes that live shooting is the best way to express movies, but that is just his personal idea, and he will not do it because of this idea. Denying Wu Jianye's suggestion, even he knew that this kind of thing was inevitable.
"Well, now that you've said that, what else can I say!"
"I'd better lead you to be far-sighted!" Wu Jianye flattered him.
"Stop telling me this, how is the filming of your TV series going?" After the serious chat, Dean Shen became concerned about the filming situation of "The Legend of White Snake".
"The filming has been completed a long time ago, and I am currently doing post-production in Xiangjiang!" Wu Jianye said with a smile.
"Well, how did I hear that your next movie is going to be shot in Hollywood? What type of movie is it?" Dean Shen asked.
Wu Jianye nodded: "Well, it's a romance film. It will be shot in Hollywood in July or August this year!"
Dean Shen sighed: "You are really promising, and now you are going to Hollywood to make movies!"
Wu Jianye laughed and said: "Going to Hollywood to film is not a glamorous thing. When people in Hollywood are proud to come to China to film in the future, that will be a proud thing!"
"Haha!" Dean Shen laughed loudly, "You still speak grandly!"
After the two chatted for a while, Wu Jianye said: "Those equipment will be delivered to the school before the start of the next semester of the college. Then you will have to worry about it!"
Wu Jianye only donated a batch of equipment, but the college needs to find such talents as instructors for this course, and also needs to coordinate the course time. It can be said that the work of the college will be very cumbersome.
Dean Shen waved his hand and said: "This is nothing. As you said, as long as it can improve the level of film technology in our country, it will be good!"
After Wu Jianye came out of film school, he went directly to Kunwu Film and Television Studio.
"Aren't you in Xiangjiang?" Ma Weidu asked in surprise when he saw Wu Jianye.
Wu Jianye said seriously: "I just came back today and I have some things to discuss with you!"
Seeing Wu Jianye being so serious, Ma Wei was a little surprised and said, "What is it, so serious?"
Wu Jianye then told Ma Weidu his previous idea, and then said: "...I now need to re-establish a Three Thousand Universe Studio under Kunwu Film and Television Studio, and we need some Domestic scholars who have researched mythology also need a group of young people between the ages of 22 and 30 who have certain writing skills!"
Ma Weidu and Wang Shuo couldn't help being surprised when they heard Wu Jianye's idea. Finally, Wang Shuo said: "Are you trying to turn writing into an industrialized creative mode?"
Ma Weidu couldn't help but said: "If this is the case, you still need a publishing house to publish the novels you mentioned!"
Wang Shuo muttered: "It's not easy to open a publishing house!"
Wu Jianye thought for a while and realized that what Wang Shuo said was reasonable. Even if Wu Jianye had a good relationship with several leaders of the Ministry of Culture, it was impossible for him to run a private publishing house by himself. The best way was to cooperate with After cooperating with a certain publishing house, Wu Jianye decided to cooperate with his alma mater.
According to national regulations, local and qualified institutions of higher education are allowed to set up publishing houses.
Moreover, Wu Jianye has another way. Although the domestic publishing business is difficult to handle, it can be done in Xiangjiang. Wu Jianye can put the headquarters of Three Thousand Universes in Xiangjiang. However, when thinking of this method, Wu Jianye still Because the concept of "Three Thousand Universes" cannot be completed overnight, Wu Jianye gave a ten-year plan.
In other words, it is impossible to launch a movie version of the concept of "Three Thousand Universes" within this ten years. At most, it will be animation and TV series. It will take ten years to deeply implant this concept into the psychology of ordinary people, and then wait until the future After the film technology reaches a certain level, Wu Jianye can promote this project!
If "Three Thousand Universes" were to be released in Hong Kong for the first time, domestic audiences would still feel a little unfamiliar.
"I will solve the publishing house's problems, but you have to help me with the writing team!" Wu Jianye said.
Ma Weidu said: "I can help you find Chinese mythology researchers, but how big do you want this writing team to be, and do you have any requirements for these people?"
Wu Jianye said: "We need at least a creative team of fifty people. Once you get these people together, I will arrange for these people to go to Hong Kong and the United States to learn their comic creation."
"Comic creation, didn't you say you wanted to write a novel?" Wang Shuo didn't understand what Wu Jianye meant.
Wu Jianye emphasized: "This will be a model where novels and comics will be launched together."
Ma Weidu sighed: "If you do this, have you ever thought about the loss?"
What kind of situation has the current piracy situation in China reached? Even Ma Wei didn't say it. Wu Jianye also knew very well that the cost of creation was so high by Wu Jianye that it was almost impossible to make money in China.
of!
But Wu Jianye is also a ruthless person!
Since domestic piracy is so prosperous, it is simply because of their low production costs and cheap prices. But when it comes to piracy business, who can compare to the convenience of piracy?
At that time, Wu Jianye can find someone he trusts and set up a pirate printing company in the south. As soon as Yanjing comes out, the pirate company in the south can print immediately, which can also make up for some losses.
Moreover, Wu Jianye's idea is to increase the influence of "Three Thousand Universes" in the hearts of Chinese people. The existence of piracy can make this concept penetrate into counties and rural areas.
As for real profits, Wu Jianye still wants to spread these money-making things to Hong Kong, Southeast Asia, and eventually even to Europe and the United States!
Although Wu Jianye does not want the birthplace of "Three Thousand Universes" to be in Xiangjiang due to regional reasons, it does not mean that it will not be released in Xiangjiang. After all, Chinese culture has always been deeply rooted in these places.
Ma Weidu is concerned about the issue of profitability, while Wang Shuo is concerned about the issue of creators: "Novel creators are easy to find, but what are you going to do about comic creators?"
Wu Jianye said: "Contact the major art schools. When the time comes, I will introduce the American comic creation model. They will go to Xiangjiang and the United States to study for a period of time with those who create stories!"
Comic creation in America is different from comic creation in RB. Taking Marvel as an example, the creation of any superhero comic is not created by one person, but by a team. During the creation process of comics,
First, the author needs to create the story; secondly, the painter will outline and draw the story with pencil; then the painter will color it - in the past, paints were used, but now they use computer drawing software; and then the copywriting will be added
Write the accompanying text for the comic; in the end, an editor is required to control all parts of the entire process to ensure that each link can be successfully completed before the deadline.
As for RB, as well as comic creation in China, as well as in Hong Kong, Europe and other places, most of them are done by one person.
After comprehensive consideration, Wu Jianye decided to learn Marvel's creative model, so that he could remove his personal style to the greatest extent and form a unified style for the entire Three Thousand Universe.
Ma Weidu nodded, "Okay, since you already have a specific idea, let's split up!"
Wu Jianye said: "I leave this matter to you. I will give you two months to deal with this matter. By then, someone will come to pick these people up to study in Xiangjiang."
Ma Weidu smiled and said: "Don't worry!"
After telling Ma Weidu Wang Shuo about the matter, Wu Jianye returned to Tangting Culture and found Xia Xiaohong.
"There are a few things that you need to follow up on!" Wu Jianye ordered directly.
"You say!"
"The first thing is that starting from today, the company will set up an animation department. From now on, the animation department will be handed over to you." At first, Wu Jianye was planning to transfer Xia Xiaohong to a certain subsidiary as the leader, but now that he thinks about it,
, Xia Xiaohong has been at Tangting Culture for the longest time. After the animation department is established, there will definitely be a very tedious workload in the early stage. When the time comes, having Xia Xiaohong take over can also minimize the process that other people will be familiar with in the future.
"Second thing, after the animation department is established, you have to go to Shanghai. I told Humei Factory before that the ten-year copyright for "Calabash Brothers" is coming soon. You have to sell it back. At the same time, now Humei Factory's
The efficiency has been poor, and some employees in the factory can no longer afford their wages. We can recruit as many people as we can!"
The operation of Humei Factory is deteriorating, and now it has begun to make ends meet. The establishment of an animation department will naturally require a large number of talents, and Humei Factory, once known as China Disney, is a huge talent base.
And even if Wu Jianye doesn't poach these people, they will be poached by rb animation company. It's better to take the lead in poaching these talents before rb animation company can react.
"The third thing is that you are going to be the manager of the animation department. You have to find me your successor. At the same time, I also need a personal secretary. I will have very little time in China in the past two years, so I need a secretary to be with me at any time.
Domestic contact!”
Wu Jianye had thought of this before.
"The fourth item, this is a wedding gift for you. When you get married, I probably won't be able to come back from Xiangjiang, so I can only give you the wedding gift first!"
Wu Jianye's final twist made Xia Xiaohong slightly stunned, and then smiled: "I thought you had forgotten it!"
Wu Jianye smiled and said: "How is that possible? Just keep the gift. You can't say that I, the boss, have been harsh!"
Xia Xiaohong took the gift from Wu Jianye and found a Patek Philippe women's watch. She happily thanked: "Thank you, boss!"
Wu Jianye waved his hand: "Okay, you can go and do these things. I'll go home first. I have to go back to Xiangjiang tomorrow!"
After Xia Xiaohong left, Wu Jianye took Dai Zhen and Chen Le straight back to the courtyard. After returning to the courtyard, Chen Le took the gifts he bought for his sister and his mother and took a look at Wu Jianye.
"Okay, let's go see your sister. Remember to come back early tonight, we have to go back to Xiangjiang tomorrow!"
"okay!"
After watching Chen Le drive away, Wu Jianye and Dai Zhen entered the courtyard.
Zhu Xian had already received a call from Wu Jianye and knew that he was coming back today, but he didn't know what happened that made Wu Jianye fly back from Xiangjiang.
So after seeing Wu Jianye, I also asked him about the purpose of his return this time.
Naturally, Wu Jianye had nothing to hide about Zhu Hao, so he told Zhu Hao the whole thing.
After hearing this, Zhu Xian was also shocked by Wu Jianye's unbridled ideas.
"Is this really possible?"
"I don't know, but I always have to try it!" Wu Jianye laughed.
He really doesn't know whether this can be successful, because no one has ever walked this road in future generations, and his advantage will not be that great!
