Chapter 247

"How accurate is it?"

"IMAX hardware."

"Expression capture technology."

"Ray Traced Rendering."

"Pure CG scene, GPU."

Gan Jing knew every single word of these words, but he didn't understand them together at all. He never thought that it would come from his manager Andy.

It sounds very professional, how do you know that?

Gan Jing endured this question for half the night, and he didn't ask outside until Andy and Xiao Yang finished talking and were about to leave.

"I'm not just your agent, I'm also the vice president of the business department, Mr. Forrest Gump." Andy emphasized the key point at the end, "3D technology is developing very well in Hollywood, and many companies are planning to borrow "Avatar" "The momentum of this market has been consolidated."

"Then how about I invest in this domestic business?" Gan Jing asked for his opinion.

Andy thought for a while, but did not answer directly: "Do you really want to change to the direction of investment? Good technology can make money anywhere. Relatively speaking, the competition in Hollywood is much greater."

Nodding silently, Gan Jing suppressed the idea of ​​directly poaching people in Hollywood to become a special effects company. It is better to use the domestic market as the foundation and train talents to become a company.

There are too many technologies and funds in Hollywood, it is difficult for Gan Jing to have an advantage, but if the domestic market can do it, relying on the huge market, it may not be impossible to compete with Hollywood in the future.

Andy didn't know what was going on in his artist's mind at all, so he just notified him another news: ""Crazy Stupid Love" was originally planned to be released at the end of the year and the beginning of the year, but there is a conflict between the producer and the investor, and I'm afraid it will be released. Postponed, but should be released next year."

Gan Jing nodded, not paying much attention: "Anyway, I got paid."

"Well..." Andy also said the following words, "The current progress of "Pounding Heart" has also been postponed. It was supposed to be released this year. Judging from the current situation, it should be possible in early 11."

Now Gan Jing was about to vomit blood, and he patted Andy on the shoulder: "Hey, I invested in this, if you don't show it, how can I get my money back!! Why did you Warner skip the ticket!!"

Andy took the car keys handed over by the waiter, and before getting into the car, he said helplessly: "Recently, the group has not been very peaceful. If it really doesn't work... Well, you can sue."

"..."

Gan Jing watched him drive the car away, leaving a word in the wind.

"Sue your uncle!"

……

Putting aside the sudden worries about capital operation, Gan Jing and Xiao Yang's journey to find cooperation in the United States was not too smooth.

Gan Jing is the matchmaker between Xiao Yang and Warner Andy, and Andy is the matchmaker between Xiao Yang and Disney's special effects department, but the relationship ends there.

Andy can give Gan Jing convenience outside of work, but he can't disregard his own affairs too much.

The first time I met with a person in charge of Disney's special effects department, the two sides talked for a total of 10 minutes. The lady named Julie fully demonstrated the meaning of the word polite.

She listened to Xiao Yang's introduction for 9 minutes, and finally spent 1 minute to refuse, basically not giving a chance.

"Forrest Gump, I think this attitude is quite firm." Xiao Yang said helplessly after returning to the hotel.

Gan Jing watched from the sidelines, so he naturally knew the meaning of Julie's attitude.

"Or forget it. Although the current domestic technology is not up to the first-line level of Hollywood, the effect of our efforts is not bad." Xiao Yang didn't have much hope before coming here, just holding that it would be very good if there was one. idea.

"That can't be done, you can't come in vain."

The production of "Flying Swords of the Dragon Gate" is not only the application and practice of domestic 3D technology, its quality is also related to the effectiveness of Gan Jing's first domestic commercial film, and he cannot help but care about it.

"Wait, I'll start a video and ask Andy if there's anything else he can do. He's on a business trip today, so that's the only way to go."

After 5 minutes, the video was connected, and Andy was in a suit and leather shoes on the screen.

"Forrest Gump, Mr. Xiao." Andy's words became more and more fluent in the correct Chinese.

The two greeted each other, and Gan Jing introduced the situation of today's meeting.

Xiao Yang had two plans before, one is to spend money to buy technology, and the other is to introduce open technology as a share, but neither is very attractive to Disney.

After listening to what Xiao Yang said, Andy thought for a while, then took out his phone and flipped through it before pointing out: "Disney's special effects department is actually somewhat different. At present, their main body is the Pixar animation acquired a few years ago. In addition, there is also cooperation with Lucas. They are also discussing cooperation with DreamWorks, and it is very likely to reach a cooperation agreement this year.”

"Pixar, Lucas?" Gan Jing was a little confused.

"The predecessor of Pixar was a part of Industrial Light and Magic. Later, it was sold to Jobs of Apple and changed to Pixar. After signing an agreement, it could only make animation movies."

"Lucas is Industrial Light and Magic, and their special effects are great."

"DreamWorks and Disney have been competing before, and recently they are secretly discussing cooperation."

Gan Jing was a little dizzy, but keenly sensed the point, and asked, "Secretly talk about cooperation?"

"Yes." Andy gave an affirmative answer, "Since Julie is unwilling to cooperate, you can find someone from DreamWorks."

"Please advise." Xiao Yang leaned over.

"I don't know the specific content very well. I only heard that it is probably the release and promotion of DreamWorks movies. In addition, Paramount has always been interested in DreamWorks." The factory needs a concept to improve their own valuation, so it is beneficial to talk to Disney or Paramount."

The place that was a little confused and deadlocked suddenly became clear.

When the video was hung up, Xiao Yang thanked Gan Jing a little excitedly: "A-Gump, if you didn't bring me here, your eyes were smeared, and you didn't know the inside story, it would be hopeless at all."

"Now I just see some possibilities." Gan Jing waved his hand, "Look for the people over there first, write down the number that Andy said just now, and then I will ask Disney's friends, since they are opponents, they must know very well. "

The matter hadn't come to fruition yet, Gan Jing wasn't too happy, and continued to search for opportunities, and finally found a person in charge of the marketing department of DreamWorks through the people in the animation department he knew when he was dubbing Disney.

It was a bit too late that night, so on the second day, they called first to find out.

After expressing his intention to come, the attitude of the other person is really different from that of Disney.

Another day later, the two parties met. DreamWorks showed great interest in exchanging technology for shares, and the two sides had very friendly contacts.

After staying in the United States for a few days, Tiangong Pictures and DreamWorks have reached an agreement on the cooperation of 3D and special effects. The specific details need to be discussed again, so Xiao Yang stayed in the United States and waited for the people from the domestic company to continue to catch up. come over.

So far, Gan Jing's job as a matchmaker has been completed. By the way, he has learned about the origin of this technology, and is ready to pay attention to the domestic market. In addition, in terms of substance, DreamWorks vaguely expressed that they trust Gan Jing in Hollywood. If we cooperate, we can draw him in - this is completely unexpected, not Gan Jing's private action.

On November [-]nd, he took a flight back to China and arrived at Beijing International Airport.

After getting off the plane, Gan Jing, who was wearing a hat, sunglasses, and a mask, was still recognized by the reporter.

"Forrest Gump, Forrest Gump, can I ask you a brief question? Some people think that Li Yugang's performance can't show the charm of Peking Opera. What's your opinion on this?"

ah?Li Yugang?Peking Opera?

Gan Jing never expected that the reporter would ask questions about Peking opera. He had an impression of the singer's reverse song, and replied: "It's good to arouse everyone's interest in Peking opera."

"Okay, thank you Forrest Gump." The reporter disappeared in a flash.

Before Gan Jing had time to wave his hand to ask about the whole story, he saw that this man had joined the crowd, and he looked at the other reporters around him in a daze, feeling a little puzzled.

What kind of reporter is this, from which media, they run faster than Hong Kong reporters!
 Starting tomorrow, make up the previous update.
