Rebirth of Hong Kong - 1978

"The drama "The Storm" has already begun to be prepared. Except for some special effects scenes that can be shot here, other places are probably very difficult to shoot with current technology. They must use real scenes, Phils My husband is now in charge of the entire special effects team in Xiangjiang. I talked with him and he thought the same way."

What can be photographed here in Magic Studio is the final scene of the decisive battle with Xiongba at the Sword Tomb. As for the other scenes, it is still impossible to produce them with the current special effects technology. Even if it is forced to be produced, not only will the effect be inferior to the real scene, but the visual appearance will also be inferior to the real scene. It is not proportional to the money spent, so Cheng Zufei suggested that Lin Daoqiu, except for the final battle, use real scenes to shoot other scenes. This is the most reasonable arrangement.

"I have already thought about this. Xiangjiang is only responsible for the post-production and the final battle at the Sword Tomb. I plan to shoot the other scenes in "Wind and Cloud" in real locations. You don't need to worry about this. "

Cheng Zufei has never doubted Lin Daoqiu's ability to film. In his opinion, all the directors in Hong Kong combined cannot compare to Lin Daoqiu. Not only in terms of box office, special effects, and plot arrangement, they can't keep up with them even in filming, so he Naturally, I never thought about teaching Lin Daoqiu how to film.

"Hello boss, I'm Phils, and I'm currently the special effects director of Magic Studio in Hong Kong."

Fiers was sent from Hollywood to be the technical director of Magic Studio. He has a team working for him. It can be said that anyone in Hong Kong who wants to make special effects movies must go to Magic Studio to seek help. Cooperation, some people even have to wait half a year for a slot to be available to them, and now even if they have money, they can't even get in line.

Lin Daoqiu has planned to increase the number of people in the special effects technical team several times, but unfortunately, many people have been arranged to learn before, but some of them have learned a little bit, and others have no way to master how to shoot special effects movies. , we can only leave these matters to the Magic Studio team, which wastes a good learning opportunity.

However, they are not willing to learn from Lin Daoqiu and will not force them. After all, the mainstream trend in movies in the future is special effects technology. Special effects movies have gradually become the standard for large-scale movies. If you don’t even know how to shoot special effects movies, then I’m afraid I can only shoot small, low-cost productions, or films that don’t require special effects.

"Thank you for your hard work during this period. I will give you a month's holiday at Christmas so that you can go back to North America and reunite with your family. Of course, your salary will be paid as well. What do you think, Mr. Phils?"

"Oh... this is great, Mr. Lin. We haven't been home for a long time. We originally thought we would only have a few days off this Christmas, but I didn't expect you to give us a month off. If I The members of the team will definitely be very happy with this news.”

Phils didn't expect Lin Daoqiu to give him such a big surprise when he arrived. Now he wanted to run and tell his team members about this good thing, but Lin Daoqiu, the boss, was still standing here. If he left casually, It would seem a little disrespectful to Lin Daoqiu, so Phils could only hold back for now and wait until Lin Daoqiu was with him before announcing the good news to everyone.

Fortunately, Lin Daoqiu knew that Phils was very busy at work, and this time he came to the Magic Studio just to inspect, and had nothing else to do, so after a brief chat with Phils, Just let him go back to work.

"Mr. Phils' technology is very powerful. It is definitely a wise choice for you to let him be responsible for the technology of Magic Studio."

At this time, Cheng Zufei suddenly stood up and said good things about Phils.

Cheng Zufei actually admires Phils because he is a very simple technician. The most he talks about every day is topics related to special effects technology. As for other things, he rarely talks to Cheng Zufei.

Moreover, Phils has a very serious attitude towards work. After arriving in Hong Kong, he moved directly into the apartment arranged for him by Magic Studio. He usually only goes back and forth between the apartment and the set. He arrived in Hong Kong for a few months, but But he didn't go shopping anywhere and just indulged in work every day. Cheng Zufei didn't know where Lin Daoqiu found Phils. It could be said that Lin Daoqiu had indeed picked up a treasure. "Really? I didn't expect Mr. Phils to be so diligent. If I had known this was the case, I should have given him a house in North America."

"Mr. Lin, that's not what I meant. I just think Mr. Phils is very capable. I don't want you to give him any rewards. Don't get me wrong."

Cheng Zufei was shocked by what Lin Daoqiu said. He had never thought of asking for a reward for Phils. After all, Phils was doing his own work, and there was no reason to give him a reward directly. With such a heavy reward for a house, if the other party really achieves something, Lin Daoqiu should reward him, but at least now Cheng Zufei disagrees.

"I'm just talking. If Phils wasn't powerful, I wouldn't have sent him to Xiangjiang. I know this better than you."

Lin Daoqiu smiled at Cheng Zufei, and Cheng Zufei nodded quickly.

"Okay, you can go to work. I can just walk around here by myself. You don't need to accompany me. After all, you have so much work every day. Spending time on me is just a waste of time. Go on."

When Cheng Zufei heard this, he thought Lin Daoqiu was dissatisfied with him, but Fang Jinsheng next to him told him directly.

"Mr. Lin didn't mean to blame you. He told the truth. You can go back to work. I will take charge of Mr. Lin's side."

Cheng Zufei nodded quickly when he heard this. Fang Jinsheng said this, which meant that Lin Daoqiu was not joking with him, and he did have a lot of things to do. If he didn't have to accompany Lin Daoqiu, then he really had to go back to deal with it. own things.

Watching Cheng Zufei leave, Fang Jinsheng smiled and said to Lin Daoqiu.

"Boss, this person seems a little not very smart."

"Not smart? Do you think he is not smart? But I think he is a very smart person, at least judging from the current situation."

"You think he is a very smart person? But why didn't I see it? If he is really that kind of person, then he shouldn't show too much in front of you."

In response to Fang Jinsheng's question, Lin Daoqiu just smiled without saying anything, and then continued walking inside with Fang Jinsheng. (End of chapter)
