This director only makes bad movies.

Chapter 282 Sanmao Special Effects
Industrial Light and Magic, this is a well-known special effects company in the industry, and there are even rumors that they are the number one special effects company in the United States.

Produced by Warner Bros. and directed by Benjamin, the film "Pacific Rim" had special effects produced by the famous company Industrial Light and Magic.

Now that we have decided to touch porcelain, we must have a full set of touch porcelain.

So Xu Nan found this company decisively and asked them to help produce the special effects of "Atlantic Rim".

Xu Nan is still quite famous, and Industrial Light & Magic sent a special manager named Vincent to receive Xu Nan.

Vincent's eloquence is very good, and he took Xu Nan to visit Industrial Light and Magic, a well-known special effects company in the United States.

"Xu, our company is the number one special effects company in the United States. Many classic movies have asked us to do special effects."

"The Terminator, the Titanic, oh, and The Hobbit."

Speaking of this, Vincent showed a narrow smile: "I believe you must be deeply impressed by the special effects of the dragon in The Hobbit, yes, this is made by our company."

Xu Nan smiled: "I watched that movie, and the special effects in it are really shocking, especially the scene of the dragon Smaug, I was even frightened."

Hearing the praise from the famous director Xu Nan, Vincent smiled proudly: "Of course, that is the pinnacle of our company."

"I can tell you a piece of news. You know that Warner Bros. is about to release a big-budget movie "Pacific Rim". It is produced by director Benjamin. The special effects of this movie are also produced by our company. I think the special effects in the movie will shock the whole world.”

Xu Nan smiled: "It just so happened that I watched that movie through internal channels. Really, it was a blockbuster with wonderful special effects, especially the mechs and monsters in it, which made people unforgettable."

Seeing Xu Nan's reaction, Vincent thought inwardly.

If there were no accidents, this business should be able to proceed with confidence, and as the host, he could also get a lot of commission from it.

For this reason, Vincent's reception was even more enthusiastic. He took Xu Nan to visit the entire industrial light and magic, and even let Xu Nan watch the whole process of making a simple special effect.

Needless to say, Industrial Light & Magic's technology in this area is really good, and the special effects are extremely realistic, just like live-action shooting.

After the visit, Xu Nan and Vincent entered a conference room and started a formal discussion.

"Xu, can you tell me now, how many minutes does it take for your movie special effects shots?" Vincent asked.

"Six minutes, there are six minutes of special effects shots in my movie." Xu Nan said.

Vincent pondered for a moment.

Although the 6-minute special effects shot is short, it is okay.

"My budget is $[-]." Xu Nan said again.

"Water?" Vincent suspected that he had heard it wrong: "Xu, can you tell me again how much money you plan to spend on special effects?"

"Fifty thousand dollars." Xu Nan's expression was very serious.

Vincent's eyes widened, with an expression of disbelief: "Xu, we are the number one special effects company in the industry."

Xu Nan nodded: "I know, that's why I came to you."

"I think you may not understand what I mean." Vincent smiled angrily: "We are the number one special effects company in the industry and only do the best special effects, so the fee is not low."

"Fifty thousand dollars, absolutely impossible."

Xu Nan laughed: "Vincent, don't worry, there are expensive ways, and there are cheap ways, you can ask them to do special effects for $[-], I know the special effects will be bad, but it's okay, I don't care. mind."

"I don't mind." Vincent said angrily: "We are the number one special effects company in the industry, and we have strict requirements for special effects. We will never make a garbage special effect."

"You are a director, don't you have any pursuit of the quality of the movie? Are you willing to show the special effects worth [-] dollars to the audience?"

Xu Nan nodded: "Excuse me."

Vincent was so angry that his body trembled.

Come to Industrial Light & Magic to do special effects, which one is not a high requirement, especially the special effects, the more exquisite and realistic the better.

But this director doesn't mind that the special effects will be bad.

He is not that kind, because of limited conditions, he had to compromise and accept low-quality special effects. He came here entirely for low-quality special effects.

How can there be such a director?
"In any case, it is impossible for our company to accept a special effect of 6 US dollars, and it is [-] US dollars for a [-]-minute special effect." Vincent said in a deep voice.

"I will not give up. I will try my best to persuade you until you agree." Xu Nan smiled.

Vincent was so angry.

Is this what you, a director, should say?

Next, the two had a cordial and friendly exchange, fully exchanged views, enhanced mutual understanding, and finally reached an agreement.

ILM eventually agreed.

Because Xu Nan said that the name of his movie is "Atlantic Rim", which is specially used to touch "Pacific Rim".

Industrial Light and Magic can use this point to promote their company.

Look, we at Industrial Light & Magic are very strong. We can produce special effects worth tens of millions, and we can also produce special effects worth tens of thousands of dollars.

Don't bargain with us, if you do, look at the special effects in "Atlantic Rim."

Special effects companies also need publicity and gimmicks.

For the sake of this publicity, Vincent finally held his nose and agreed to Xu Nan's request.

Fifty thousand dollars, just fifty thousand dollars.

Of course, the special effects made for [-] dollars must be very poor, basically the legendary [-] cents special effects.

It's not even at the level of Wumao special effects, maybe only Sanmao.

Industrial Light & Magic completed Xu Nan's special effects in only two days.

Hmm. How to say.

This kind of special effect must be very rubbish, it can only be said to be barely passable.

But [-] US dollars can have this level, so don't ask for so much.

Finally, when Vincent sent Xu Nan away, his expression was extremely ugly, and he even said a special word.

"Maybe I shouldn't say it, but I will."

"Xu, please don't spend tens of thousands of dollars on special effects in the future. This is an insult to us."

Xu Nan was not only not angry, but also comforted Vincent: "Trust me, Vincent, you will not regret this decision."

"After the movie is broadcast, it will be a good advertisement for your company."

"You can even use me as an example for your clients."

Vincent's expression twitched, and without saying anything, he waved Xu Nan away.

Although Xu Nan hadn't left yet.

In any case, after some twists and turns, the special effects of "Atlantic Rim" are finally complete.

And this news quickly reached the ears of Warner and Benjamin.
