Chapter 553 3D Westward Journey Animation
After finishing "Painted Skin", Chen Hao stared at the post-production special effects of "I Am Legend" again.

"The rendering here is a little darker, and the atmosphere of decadence is stronger." Chen Hao said looking at the computer screen.

"Okay, Mr. Chen!"

"Mr. Chen, you are here!" Chang Hongsong hurried over to say hello when he heard that Chen Hao had come to Haotian Special Effects.

"Well, let's see how the special effects of "I Am Legend" are doing." Chen Hao nodded.

"Don't worry, it will definitely be completed in mid-June." Chang Hongsong promised.

Chen Hao nodded when he heard the words, "By the way, how is the production of "Kung Fu Panda" going?"

"It will definitely be finished by the end of the year!" Chang Hongsong said slightly embarrassed.

Chen Hao invested 3 million RMB in this domestic animation 5500D film, and it took nearly 4 years to make it. If other bosses, I am afraid they would not have such patience.

"Speed ​​is not the key, the most important thing is quality, "Kung Fu Panda" should be compared with excellent animated films such as "Ice Age" and "Shrek".

The goal of Haotian special effects should also be the world-renowned special effects studios such as Blue Sky and Pixar, and "Kung Fu Panda" will definitely go to the United States.

To put it bluntly, "Kung Fu Panda" represents the highest level of special effects in the mainland, so don't embarrass me internationally. " Chen Hao said.

"You can rest assured that "Kung Fu Panda" is the painstaking effort of everyone in Haotian Special Effects, and it also represents the highest level of special effects in our company. It will definitely not disappoint you." Chang Hongsong assured.

As Haotian Special Effects' first domestically produced 3D animation film, both Chen Hao and Chang Hongsong have high hopes for it.

Not to mention surpassing world-renowned special effects companies such as Blue Sky, Pixar, and Weta Digital, but at least it must be famous and let the world know that there is a special effects company in the Mainland that has reached world-class special effects!

Becoming one of the world's top special effects companies proves that the production level of special effects in the mainland is not inferior to that of European and American countries. In Chen Hao and Chang Hongsong's view, it is more important than the film's big sales.

This is an opportunity for Chen Hao to invest so much money, absorb nearly 200 domestic elites and talents in special effects and animation production, and spend 4 years working together to fight for it!
It is an opportunity to make domestic 3D animation bloom all over the world, and an opportunity to realize the dream of all domestic 3D animation lovers for more than ten years!
Of course, it would be even better if the box office can sell well. After all, gathering so many talents, making 3D animation movies, and developing special effects technology are all very expensive.

Only by making money can more talents and funds be attracted to join, and then a virtuous circle will be formed, which will truly allow the mainland to develop rapidly in special effects production and reach the world-class level.

Chen Hao nodded when he heard the words, then glanced at him, and saw a stack of comic drawings on the desk.

It seemed familiar, Chen Hao picked it up and asked, "What is this?"

"Xiaobo, Mr. Chen asked you something!" Chang Hongsong frowned when he heard this, and quickly pushed the man who was still working on special effects.

"Ah!" Xiaobo responded, "Mr. Chen, I drew this myself."

"Do you like Journey to the West?" Chen Hao asked.

"Yes, I have always dreamed of making a 3D animation of Westward Journey, which is also the biggest reason why I joined Haotian." Xiaobo said frankly.

Chang Hongsong immediately took over the conversation and said, "Xiaobo has joined the company for 2 years. He has participated in the special effects production of "Man with No Surname" and "The Martian", and is also a team leader of the production team of "Kung Fu Panda". Rich and thoughtful."

"What's your name?" Chen Hao frowned slightly.

"Xiaobo, Tian Xiaobo!"

Chen Hao thought about it for a while, and the name really impressed him. Looking at the sketch in his hand, he couldn't help but smile, "After the production of "Kung Fu Panda" is completed, do you have any other plans?"

"Yes, but none of them have been specifically put on the agenda. After all, the most important thing now is "Kung Fu Panda"!" Chang Hongsong replied.

For Haotian special effects, only "Kung Fu Panda" is the most important now. If "Kung Fu Panda" fails, it will undoubtedly be a huge blow, let alone what Chen Hao will do.

Chen Hao smiled when he heard the words, "Don't be too stressed, even if "Kung Fu Panda" is not successful, I will always support Haotian special effects. Since "Kung Fu Panda" can be completed by the end of the year, then you can also consider the next work. gone."

After finishing speaking, Chen Hao handed over the manuscript paper to Tian Xiaobo, then patted him on the shoulder and left!
Tian Xiaobo took his manuscript paper, then blinked at Chang Hongsong, "Mr. Chang, Mr. Chen, yes, what do you mean?"

Chang Hongsong smiled and said, "What do you mean? Hurry up and tidy up your things, write a specific plan and submit it! You kid is out of luck."

"You mean, Mr. Chen has taken a fancy to me?" Tian Xiaobo said, "No, he has taken a fancy to my work?"

"Anyway, I think that's what it means." Chang Hongsong smiled, "However, you are now in charge of the special effects production of "I Am Legend", so you must do well, otherwise your work will definitely be killed by Mr. Chen."

"Don't worry, I'll do my best to finish Mr. Chen's movie!" Tian Xiaobo blushed excitedly.

What a great feeling to see the light of day on a dream I have had for years!

……

After returning to the office, Chen Hao received an email from Davis. There were two things, one was about the progress of the preparations for the new film, and the other was the box office of "The Da Vinci Code".

In the second week of the release of "The Da Vinci Code", ushered in the super blockbuster "X-Men 3"!
"X-Men 3" was indeed a huge mess, with box office revenue as high as $4410 million on its premiere day.

这个数字已经打破《蜘蛛侠1》保持的历史上周五收入的最高纪录（3940万美元），同时也排在历史上上映日当天收入的第2位（第一位是《星战3》的5001万美元）。

And its first weekend box office was 1.03 million US dollars, breaking the record of the highest box office box office in the first weekend of 2006 just created by "The Da Vinci Code", and becoming the fourth highest box office movie in the history of the movie.

"X-Men 3"'s $3 million box office in the first 1.03 days of its release ranks fourth in movie history!

仅次于2002年的《蜘蛛侠》（1.15亿美元）、2005年的《星战前传3》（1.08亿美元）和2004年的《怪物史莱克2》（1.08亿美元）。

Facing the box office hit "X-Men 3", "The Da Vinci Code" won 4243 million US dollars in the second weekend, ranking second on the list, with a drop of 44.49%, which is considered a normal range!
After entering June, the weekend box office of "The Da Vinci Code" in the third week has fallen below 6 million, only 2000 million US dollars, a drop of 1861%, which is obviously still affected by word-of-mouth and religious factors.
