At the party, Xia Tian discussed the "Lord of the Rings" project with Peter Jackson, discussed the cooperation between Tianxia Animation and Industrial Light and Magic with George Lucas, and discussed the Chinese Workers' films with Stephen Spielberg, and negotiated several film projects.

For example, "Public Enemy of the State". This movie is adapted from James Bandeford's novel "the-puzzle -palace". It tells the story of a lawyer accidentally involved in an assassination of a senior executive of the House of Residence, and was chased, and finally cleared of suspicion and brought the criminal to justice.

The original film starring Will Smith, which won nearly $600 million in box office worldwide, is a very successful commercial blockbuster. Moreover, because this film discusses the topic of "how to protect the privacy rights of ordinary people under the suppression of state violent agencies", this also adds some depth to the commercial film and has a good reputation.

For example, "Los Angeles Secret" is also adapted from the novel by James Errory. It tells the story of a restaurant robbery in Los Angeles when corruption was rampant and the Black Gangs rampant. This was originally a very ordinary robbery, but it triggered a fierce battle between the righteous police and the corrupt police.

The movie won multiple nominations for the Golden Globes and Academy Awards that year. The heroine Kim Basinger also won the Best Supporting Actress Award for this. Yes, although she is the heroine, because she has three big men as the protagonists in the whole drama, her role as the heroine is only equivalent to the supporting actress.

This movie has a box office of 60 million US dollars in North America and a global box office of 1800 million US dollars. In the 1990s, it was already a very good result.

Another movie is "Air Prison". This movie tells the story of the officer Cameron, who was sentenced to prison for manslaughter, was released early because of his good performance and returned to his hometown by plane. However, unexpectedly, the plane was hijacked by a prisoner who had planned it, and Cameron was innocently involved...

The original movie starred Nicholas Cage, who was also a box office superstar at that time, and won 230 million US dollars in the world. In addition, "Face Change" released in childhood also hit a box office of more than 240 million US dollars, making Nicholas Cage the most popular male movie star of the year and successfully entered the 20 million US dollar club.

However, after this, Nicholas Cage did not perform well. Except for a few limited works such as "The King of War", "Stickman", "National Treasure", and "Weather Forecaster", most of the other movies are bad movies. This also has to do with his excessive spending, which has to be said to be a pity.

...

Of course, in addition to the above three movies, there are actually many scripts handed over to Xia Tian.

This grand Christmas party is not just for people in the circle to celebrate the festival, but also a good opportunity for them to hand over their connections and win over funds.

Tens of thousands of projects, movies, dramas, variety shows, talk shows, concerts a year... Everyone has an idea, and everyone hopes to raise funds and create their own ideas.

But generally speaking, even one percent of the ones that can be produced may not be enough. Most projects cannot raise funds at all, and there is not even a person who is willing to appreciate them.

Therefore, in order to get one percent chance, producers have to do their best to attract investment and take advantage of any opportunities they can use. This is just like when I was a poor director in the summer, I drank with those bosses until they vomited blood in order to attract investment.

However, after listening to other projects in summer, he felt that it was meaningless and did not invest. Although he was rich, the money was not blown by the strong wind, and he could not invest in any bad movies.

...

After the Christmas party, the next day, Xia Tian ordered the general manager of Tianxia Animation to lead a group to discuss cooperation with Industrial Light and Magic.

The goal of summer is to strive to achieve technology sharing between the two companies. In this way, if Tianxia Animation gets the technology of Industrial Light and Magic, the level of special effects production will inevitably reach a new level. In that case, the special effects produced by Tianxia will be more amazing and the box office will naturally be higher.

As for Industrial Light and Magic's technology to obtain the world's animation, it will get more orders for film special effects production, which Xia Tian does not think is a problem.

Because Tianxia Animation has no longer done these things except for the insufficient orders in the early days and needed to take over external advertising orders. The only thing that Tianxia produces films every year and Tianxia Animation's own animation feature films has made them a little busy. Therefore, there is no competitive relationship between Industrial Light and Magic and Tianxia Animation.

Moreover, it is not a big deal for Industrial Light and Magic to use the technology of Tianxia animation to produce special effects for other film companies.

First, Industrial Light and Magic produces special effects for other film companies. In order to make money, the fees must be higher than that of Tianxia Animation. Because Tianxia Animation works for its own home.

Therefore, other film companies either spend more money to achieve the same level as Tianxia animation. Or they spend the same money to make computer special effects slightly worse. No matter which one they choose, it is good, and Tianxia production has the advantage.

Second, movie special effects are constantly developing and improving. Only by learning from each other, imitating each other, and competing well can the film special effects technology be constantly innovating and making progress. Therefore, using good movie special effects for other film companies is more beneficial than disadvantages for world production.

This is also the reason why Vita Digital did not hide it and did not reveal it to others after developing the massive cluster software, but also sold it.

...

Speaking of Vita Digital, its founder Peter Jackson came to the world production headquarters with a thick stack of scripts the day after the party.

He has been investing in "Lord of the Rings" for two years, and no one has ever been willing to invest in him and film this movie. Now it's easy to invest in summer, so he naturally doesn't want to give up the opportunity that he finally got.

Moreover, he was afraid that Xia Tian would say something drunk yesterday, so he was worried that Xia Tian would not admit his account after sobering up, so he held the script early and stood by the door.

"Mr. Jackson, please sit down, have the script brought it?" Xia Tian asked with a smile.

Peter Jackson nodded quickly, took out the script, and handed it to Xia Tian carefully.

Xia Tian took it and was shocked. He saw that the script was a thick stack, similar to the Xinhua Dictionary.

Such a thick script costs at least 400,000 or 500,000 words.

"You can really write it!" Xia Tian muttered, and it was estimated that this was the thickest script he had ever read.

Xia Tian then opened the script and started reading it carefully.
Chapter completed!
