He had previously thought about showing a holographic projection movie at Chelsea Stadium. Before Ridley mentioned filming The Martian, he had also thought about simply shooting some dinosaur videos at the Magic Planet on Sunday.
If it weren't for the concern that there were only dinosaurs and no actors performing, the audience would think this was a movie, and it was simply an animal world about dinosaurs.
Moreover, the real dinosaur hunting scene is indeed too bloody. If the audience is immersed in the scene using holographic projection, I don’t know if someone will be frightened and have a heart attack.
Now that Ridley wants to make The Martian, combining this kind of hard science fiction movie with holographic projection technology will definitely complement each other.
As for the funding for the filming, to be honest, except for the salary of the director, actors and staff, everything else can be settled on Sunday.
You can make your own filming equipment, and the scene engineering robot can build it. You can even let the actors wear holographic equipment, just like the villain in Little Spider, and shoot in the scene simulated by holographic technology.
If necessary, a special spacecraft can be built with all the places that need to be kept secret, and the actors can wear four-style space suits to shoot on Mars.
As for the Mars base, after everyone dispersed, while William and Daddario went to pick food from the buffet table, he took out his mobile phone and typed a message to Sunday, "Let the engineering robots from the mining base on Mars go to the plains of northern Mars to build
A base for fifty people.”
"Understood, sir".
After choosing the food, it was already half past eight. Obadiah came in and knocked on the microphone on the podium, and everyone present sat down in their seats.
After listening to Obadiah ramble on about Stark's glorious past and his prospects for the future, William lost interest and began to eat quietly.
As for Daddario, this little girl didn't dare to eat and drink with a knife and fork as carelessly as William. She only ate a few small pastries and looked at William with envy.
After William finished eating, Obadiah also finished his speech and gave the podium to a black man wearing a military uniform with two stars on his shoulders.
Without the other person introducing himself, William knew that this guy was Lieutenant Colonel Roddy, the future war machine.
After Rody introduced himself, he pointed at the big screen on the podium, and a picture of Stark began to appear on the big screen. After praising him, Roddy held a crystal trophy with a smile on his face.
Let Stark go up and receive the award.
When Tony Stark was mentioned, everyone realized that as the chairman of the Stark Group, everyone seemed to have never seen him at the reception.
William curiously asked Obaday, who was across the empty chair, "Where is that guy Stark?"
Obadiah's face darkened, his hand holding the cigar tightened, and he said in a bad mood, "I don't know, Tony left Pepper after he returned to the city, and took Happy and other bodyguards with him.
Where have you been?"
If he couldn't contact anyone, he must have turned off his phone on purpose. William shrugged and ignored Stark, but according to the plot of the movie, Stark will meet him tomorrow and his attitude will change for the rest of his life.
disaster.
To save or not to save?
Roddy, who was holding the trophy, looked at William and the other people at the main table, then glanced a few times into the hall, and shouted into the microphone with some uneasiness,
"Tony, this is an American contribution award that no one has won in several years. Even if you are busy chatting with some girl, you should take the trophy away first."
"Hahaha".
Upon hearing Roddy teasing Stark, everyone sitting here couldn't help but think about what he said.
Obadiah looked at William, who waved his hand and refused. He had no intention of causing trouble for Stark.
As a last resort, Obaday had no choice but to take the stage again and win the trophy from Roddy.
After staring at the trophy for more than ten seconds, he suppressed the anger in his heart, and William could easily see a hint of violence in his eyes.
After regaining his mood, Obaday made a few jokes and used the excuse that Stark had gained a lot of inspiration after communicating with William in the afternoon, so he stayed in the laboratory to die.
After receiving the trophy, Obadiah didn't want to say any more and directly announced that everyone could have a carnival as much as they wanted, and that any consumption would be borne by the Stark Group.
Of course, this consumption is limited to food, drink, accommodation, and watching any performances. As for those who want to have fun, they can only be responsible for it themselves.
After dancing a few times with Daddario, William soon discovered that as long as he was free, various girls would find reasons to talk to him.
Even when he and Ridley were staying together to discuss the script, a girl came over with a wine glass and wanted to touch it.
Seeing an actress pretending not to stand still and almost hanging on him leave in disappointment, William smiled and said to Ridley,
"I plan to hand over the script to a professional screenwriter. If you are in good health and have no other work to do, you can participate in writing the script together starting tomorrow."
"No problem, no need for tomorrow," Ridley, who has not produced a major production in three years, said quickly, "I can go back to Hollywood right now to gather people and start writing the script, but,".
"Don't worry," William covered his ears and said to Sunday, "Let Anthony from Yuexida Office bring people over overnight to finalize the contract and film preparations. As for the remuneration,
Since it is based on my deeds, forget about sharing the script, but if the script satisfies me, I will pay a salary of US$300,000."
After speaking, William said to Ridley, "Give Lawyer Anthony a list of shooting equipment, and I will set it up in London."
After thinking about it, William simply told Ridley about the holographic projection, and finally said in the old man's incredulous look,
"In a few days, I should hold a holographic projection technology event at Stamford Bridge Stadium. Then you can intuitively see what this technology can do.
Okay, let's talk about this for today." He glanced at Daddario, who was always paying attention to the surroundings. William smiled and said, "If you don't leave, Daddario will probably let me sleep on the sofa. We will see you in a few days."
.
"Okay, okay." Ridley, whose mind was shocked by the holographic technology, showed a forced smile. He was a little distracted and didn't even say hello. He turned around and left slowly.
William smiled helplessly, shook his head, and left the reception with Daddario.
After walking out of the banquet hall, I wanted to take Daddario, who had not eaten anything, to the restaurant to have something to eat.
But on the way to the restaurant, Daddario saw the musical stage play "Cats" on the hotel's promotional screen. The girl left and hugged William's arm and said she wanted to watch it.
Broadway is closed, but that doesn't mean that Las Vegas, which has far more tourists than Americans, won't invite actors to perform again.
After a call was made, the suite butler who had been left aside by William not only came over directly, but also respectfully said that the best VIP room in the theater was ready.
The fact that William and Daddario went to see the musical was quickly discovered without anyone specifically asking to keep it secret.
Soon, the group of people in Hollywood gave excuses one after another to leave the Stark Group's reception.
Arriving at the VIP room of the stage play, William was pulled by the excited Daddario to sit on the balcony of the VIP room and look at the stage of the performance that had just begun.
This musical that Daddario had watched almost ten years ago was full of memories for her, but William lost interest after watching it for a few minutes.
As an excuse to go to the VIP room to get a drink, he asked Sunday, "Will Stark go to the desert area tomorrow?"
Sunday was silent for a few seconds before replying, "Sir, I checked the private jets belonging to the Stark Group and Mr. Stark himself, and I only found that Mr. Obadiah-Stein will fly to the desert area tomorrow to host Jerry
Test firing of science-guided eggs”.
Changed?
Or was it because of his own appearance that Obadiah Stane was not in a hurry to kill Stark?
No, Obaday's previous anger and violence were not fake. He was just thinking about being on the safe side and letting Sunday stare at Stark, but then he thought that although Jarvis was much, much worse than Sunday,
But in essence, the two artificial intelligences are actually of the same origin. If Stark finds that he has been targeted by William in the future,
Let alone being William's vanguard or cannon fodder, he will definitely regard William as an enemy and force William to kill him.
And what the world needs is Iron Man, not plaything Tony Stark.
It is impossible for Tony, who has never experienced life and death, to become the main force in maintaining the stability of this world. In this case, then just leave it to fate?
If he wasn't directly killed by the bomb, just keep an eye on him to protect him from death?
To be honest, if Iron Man disappears from Marvel, William will not be able to adapt to it for a while. In addition, Stark's death will change too much. Who knows what the world will be like in the future.
Although he is a guabi and has changed some things, William knows very well that vague prophetic attire is sometimes more useful than ability fraternity.
And he wanted to keep Stark alive, probably because he was so famous that William actually felt a sense of nostalgia in his heart.
After thinking for a moment, he raised his head and whispered, "Heimdall, keep an eye on Tony Stark for me. I want to know where he is at any time."
Heimdall, the gatekeeper of God's Realm, is keeping an eye on him. Let alone looking for people on Earth, there is no one he can't find as long as they are in the Nine Realms.
In the Asgard domain, Heimdall reluctantly reported this matter to Odin. After Odin heard that Tony Stark was just an ordinary person, he didn't ask any more questions and directly asked Heimdall to pay attention to Stark.
for a while.
"Dear", just as he was thinking about it, he saw Daddario looking back at him. William poured two glasses of red wine and walked over helplessly.
After listening for almost half an hour, when he was almost dozing off, a green light came on on the chair where William was sitting.
When he came in before, the suite butler had introduced that this was to alert the guests in the VIP room that someone was looking for him. He picked up the microphone and asked, "What's the matter?"
"Mr. Devon Hill, Mr. Richard from Stark Group, and several senior executives from Disney and other film companies are visiting. Do you want to meet them?"
William, who was almost dozing off from the musical, was still thinking about what Richard and the others were talking about, but Daddario said first,
"My dear, since you have business, let's go back to the presidential suite, where it is quieter and more confidential."
The more Daddario does this, the more William will accommodate her on small matters that do not involve principles.
He kissed Daddario on the face and said, "It doesn't matter. We sit in the VIP room and talk. The music is conducive to disturbing eavesdropping. You can watch your musical here with peace of mind. I will come out to accompany you after we finish talking."
"Yeah." Daddario, who felt a little regretful that he could not finish listening, immediately nodded with a smile, watched William enter the VIP room, and then focused on the musical.
"Knock, knock, knock." After a few gentle knocks on the door, William said, "Come in," and saw Richard walking in with the CEO of Disney with a worried look on his face.
Behind them, people from MGM, Warner and other film companies walked in with smiles on their faces.
William had thought that Disney could keep it secret for at least ten days and a half, but he didn't expect that it would only be a few hours. Not to mention the big six in Hollywood, even well-informed directors and producers would go from Hollywood to Las Vegas.
Vegas is coming.
This ability to keep secrets can leak through a sieve.
After introducing each other, William smiled and invited everyone to take a seat. After the butler poured red wine for everyone and exited, Richard stared at the heads of several other film companies for a long time. Seeing that they did not look embarrassed at all, he finally had no choice but to
and William said,
"William, didn't you say before that you wanted to invite us to watch the hologram? Otherwise, we would watch it in this theater?"
After Richard finished speaking, William understood in his heart that the people in front of him probably had some confidence in him. As for the heads of the other three film companies who didn't come over, they probably didn't believe the news that spread from Disney to Hollywood at all.
However, although these people are here, no one will be foolish enough to directly discuss cooperation before seeing the confirmed technology.
It's a pity that for William, if they want to ask him to do special effects, they are definitely welcome, but if they want to talk about technical licensing or even business, William won't bother them.
"There is no need to discuss technology licensing and sales, as for the display of holographic imaging."
William thought for a while and said, "What kind of movie do you want to watch?"
Richard immediately asked, "You mean, you can convert movies that have been played in cinemas into holographic projection movies at will within a short period of time?"
"It's not difficult to just switch the playback mode. Is there any need to make such a fuss?"
Seeing William's matter-of-fact look, everyone sitting there was blinded and shook their heads helplessly.
In other words, the person in front of him was William. If it had been anyone else, he would have been scolded by them.
Seeing that everyone was silent, William directly covered his ears and said to Sunday, "Convert Ridley's Gladiator into a holographic movie, and then call him over to me."
"Understood, sir".
After saying that, William was no longer interested in talking to these guys who didn't care about rabbits.
After saying "Let's chat," he returned to his seat on the balcony, held Daddario's hand, picked up the microphone and told the suite steward that he wanted to use the stage after the musical.
It didn't take long for Ridley and his agent to rush over, but seeing a circle of Hollywood's top bosses, and William sitting on the balcony seat unable to get up, even if he thought he had hooked up with William, he could only act honestly.
Really sitting on the sofa and listening to the musical with my eyes closed.
An hour later, it was already eleven o'clock in the night. Many people left quickly as soon as the musical ended. However, some people who had noticed William for a long time saw him and Daddario sitting on chairs talking and did not want to leave at all.
What it meant was that I sat still out of curiosity.
