Chapter 378: Final Shooting and Release Date

When we came to the screening room, "Huan Tai" that Han Sanpin was watching had been playing for half an hour.

This happens to be the scene where the hero and heroine see the car.

As a static picture, the visual impact is not great, and because I am not wearing 3D glasses, the picture is as blurry as astigmatism.

But it didn't stop Mu Xiaoguang and others from shouting "awesome" in their hearts.

They could tell at a glance that this was definitely not an Asian-level movie, but a Hollywood-level one.

Mu Xiaoguang asked: "Did Xingchen do it himself?"

"Of course." Lu Pingan handed over the 3D glasses, "Use 3D, the effect will be better."

Mu Xiaoguang put on his glasses, and sure enough, the look was different.

"sharp!"

"It will be better to watch it in IMAX after it is released in theaters."

"Please don't forget me at the premiere."

"Of course, but are you really not going to contribute some movie tickets?"

"Hahaha, of course I will."

Then continue watching, keeping the questions you want to ask in your mind, the plot is the most important.

An hour and a half later, everyone came out with Han Sanpin, their faces glowing red.

Fan Xiaopang and others have truly seen what Xingchen's strongest movie is currently, and they are full of confidence in the future.

For Fan Xiaopang, what is actually more important is to see Liu Qianqian's performance in it.

She envied this little girl again.

What a lucky fate!

After this release, Liu Qianqian may have to go international directly!

Not to mention Han Sanpin was happy.

Before coming here, he was actually worried whether the movie would follow in the footsteps of "The Promise".

Although he also knew that Lu Pingan would never miss the plot.

But "The Promise" really gave him great stamina for competition.

It's better now. At this moment, Han Sanpin's mood is like drinking iced sour plum soup in summer, which is so refreshing.

He didn't care about Fan Xiaopang and others, and directly asked Lu Ping'an: "It's summer time, won't you cover it up anymore?"

"There is no need to cover it up. It really wasn't done well. There are still a few things that need to be adjusted in the version you are looking at now."

Lu Pingan retorted with a smile, and then gave An Xin a guarantee, "It's on summer release, and "Kung Fu Panda" is also on summer release."

"Is it all summer time?"

"Yes, let's finish the summer season completely."

"What about the Lunar New Year period?"

"Leave this year's work to others, and we'll talk about it next year."

"Okay, by the way, can we see the panda now?"

"It's done, but there's no dubbing. It'll take a few days."

"Can."

Han Sanpin was satisfied, and then looked at Fan Xiaopang and the others.

Han Sanpin and Mu Xiaoguang knew each other, so since they had met, they naturally wanted to have a chat over a cup of tea.

After learning about the cooperation between Lu Ping'an and the other party, Han Sanpin also regarded Xingchen as a Chinese movie star and had many words with Mu Xiaoguang as his master.

Generally speaking, you can do business, but you must pay attention to the rules. This is the mainland after all.

Then I wish both parties can cooperate to produce more high-quality works.

Of course Mu Xiaoguang didn't dare to fart.

He naturally understands what it means. He is a mountain eagle. How dare he make a mistake?

This scene actually made Fan Xiaopang feel more and more happy the more he watched it.

Life is different when you board a high-speed train. The peak of life is almost before your eyes.

Of course, if the road is safe, the speed will naturally be much faster than it is now.

Unfortunately, safe roads seem to be difficult to obtain.

When the conversation reached lunch time, Lu Pingan asked for food, but Han Sanpin refused, saying he would have a meeting in the afternoon.

Lu Pingan, Fan Xiaopang and others then had a simple meal without much drinking. They chatted about the next plan at the dinner table and then left.

Next, Fan Xiaopang will officially start the road to attack Fan Ye under the control of Mu Xiaoguang.

Of course, Fan Xiaopang didn't give up and continued to conquer Lu Ping'an. After leaving, he was sent his home address in a text message.

Lu Pingan did not refuse or accept, and replied: "Be careful when the killer comes!"

Fan Xiaopang quickly replied: "Then I will just wait and be killed."

Lu Ping'an didn't reply again. After Fan Xiaopang waited for a long time, he threw his phone into his bag, then looked at the street view of Beijing outside the car window and raised his lips again, not knowing what he was thinking.

Lu Pingan continued to focus on the last bit of work on "Huan Tai". It was not until Liu Qianqian called that he left the company and went to Liu Qianqian's home.

"What's the dish today?"

At Liu Qianqian's house, Lu Ping'an looked at the table of dishes prepared by Liu Xiaoli and moved his index finger.

"Wash your hands first."

Liu Qianqian smiled and pushed Lu Pingan to the bathroom.

Lu Pingan took the opportunity to grab a piece of meat and put it in his mouth. The look made Liu Xiaoli smile like an aunt.

Then we started to eat. Topics were flying around the dinner table, and naturally the topic of "Huan Tai" was inevitable.

Lu Ping'an also knew what Liu Xiaoli cared about, so he didn't keep it secret.

"Last year Sissi had "The Condor" Little Dragon Girl, this year she has "Huan Tai", one film a year, Sissi, if other people knew you were such an idiot, they would be so envious!"

Liu Qianqian replied subconsciously: "Where can I find salted fish? I usually read books and practice my acting skills."

And Liu Xiaoli grasped the key point: "Is "Pacific Rim" ready?"

"Yes, we have been doing it for a long time, but there is no way. There are problems with talent and equipment, so it is indeed a bit difficult to do it."

In fact, according to the current speed, "Huan Tai" is already fast enough.

But this was also made possible by the investment in equipment and personnel regardless of cost.

The ratio of capital investment to production time is quite different from that of Hollywood.

With the same two-year production cycle and the same equipment, Industrial Light & Magic may only need 50 people, while Xingchen uses nearly 200 people.

The gap is indeed not small.

"It's the first time, so it's inevitable to stumble. It's a success if it can be completed smoothly." Liu Xiaoli comforted.

"I think so too. Now the movie is estimated to be completely finished in a few hours. It will be released in the summer. I plan to release it in the United States first, and then in China."

Lu Ping'an directly stated the plan.

For a movie like "Pacific Rim" that has no national characteristics, the best way is actually to release it outside first and then inside.

As for the outside, it is best to release it in June, before "Transformers", to be the first to make a big special effects movie.

Big special effects movies are also a big gimmick in the United States, otherwise the box office of "Transformers" would not be so high.

The box office of the original time and space "Transformers 1" was more than 700 million US dollars worldwide, and the bonus brought by the large number of original fans accounted for the vast majority, and the big special effects of the whole film cannot be ignored.

In general, this is a very strong opponent, so if Pacific Rim wants to take advantage, it must be released before it, plus 3D and IMAX, it can achieve good results.

As for China, it will be released in July, and then it will be released in August with Panda, to give Transformers a pincer attack.

Panda can be released slowly in North America, preferably in the Christmas season.

In this way, it will be three months apart from the release time in the mainland, and there will be basically no impact.

After hearing this, Liu Xiaoli's eyes sparkled, as if she had seen Sissi step onto the international stage.

Lu Pingan continued, "If you have time later, you can go to the company to watch a movie."

Liu Xiaoli: "Okay."

Liu Xixi asked, "Did I behave well in it?"

"No, not at all, just like a fool."

"Ah?~~~"

Liu Xixi, who had been crying for a while, saw Lu Pingan holding back his laughter and quickly reacted. Then she stood up and was about to pinch him, but was stopped by Liu Xiaoli, "Xixi, don't bully Pingan!"

"Mom, he is bullying me."

"Really? I only saw you want to bully him, sit down and have a good meal!"

Liu Xiaoli was very strong and scolded Liu Xixi so much that she pouted, but turned around and became gentle again, "Pingan, try this, Auntie has been stewing it for a day"

An hour and a half later, Liu Xixi and her daughter watched the movie again in the Xingchen screening room.

And Lu Pingan also received a reward for finishing the film.

"Pacific Rim" is 102% complete.

It is not easy to surpass the first time to produce a big special effect.

As for the reward, Lu Pingan was also quite satisfied.

The overall speed-up buff of the special effects film production stage.

How to describe this skill.

If Lu Ping'an works alone, it would be useless because he has "X".

But he is no longer working alone. Now that he has a team, this skill is very useful.

With this buff, the company can reduce the error rate in the production stage when producing special effects, including animation, in the future, to improve production efficiency, and at the same time strengthen production inspiration and improve special effects quality.

For example, the modeling + rendering of a shot in "Pacific Rim" has been redone more than ten times.

This is extremely time-consuming.

With this buff, many errors can be reduced and time can be greatly reduced.

At the same time, it is also very good to improve production inspiration. On the one hand, this is related to artistry. Whether the special effects are good or not, aesthetics is also very important in addition to technology.

The right aesthetics will create the right special effects plan, and it will present the most suitable visual perception when placed in the right place. It is a very simple truth.

On the other hand, the production staff can also increase the probability of developing new technologies under the buff. Although it is small, the timeline will be extended, and more advantages will naturally accumulate.

Lu Ping An is generally good.

If this buff had been available before Pacific Rim, Pacific Rim would have been finished in August last year, and the quality would have been slightly higher.

Not bad.
