    Chapter 616 Details determine success

    Standing up, Zhou Shaoming frowned, showed a smile, and responded to Harry: "The script is okay but it still doesn't meet my requirements!"

    Listening to Zhou Shaoming¡¯s words, Harry was stunned. It seemed that Akiva was a little worried before getting it, as Akiva had said before!

    Zhou Shaoming stretched his waist and said to Harry who looked frustrated: "The story itself is very exciting, but after all there are still some parts that are not detailed enough. I think with the abilities of you and Akiva, it only takes two or three days to fill in the details."  Just a few things?¡±

    When Akiva heard Zhou Shaoming¡¯s words, he couldn¡¯t help but sit up straight and said, ¡°What¡¯s missing in this script?¡±

    Zhou Shaoming took a deep breath and said to Akiva: "It's the details! In the story of the script, I remember that there are five unparalleled heroes in the Peace Valley, a tiger, a snake, a monkey, a crane, and a mantis! The descriptions of these five people are very interesting.  Detailed, but the rest is, how many villagers are there in the Peace Valley, a martial arts conference is held, and how many people are present! How the masters of the five heroes look like, what happened to his character, etc.!"

    Zhou Shaoming was stunned for a moment and said: "I remember when I first learned to shoot movies, a teacher once taught me that the most important thing in shooting movies is to pay attention to details, so every time I am on the shooting scene,  I will always remember this sentence! The reason why I have achieved what I have today is not luck, nor a fluke, so I hope you will spend another three days to think about it and perfect this wonderful story!"

    Zhou Shaoming showed a kind smile on his face and said: "The more you do in the early stage, the later our staff will save a lot of time when we start to produce this cartoon."

    Listening to Zhou Shaoming¡¯s words, Akiva¡¯s eyes lit up, ¡°Zhou, how much money do you really want to invest in this movie?¡±

    Zhou Shaoming took a deep breath and responded calmly: "The investment in the movie is slightly less than that of Iron Man. The expected filming amount is 130 to 150 million yuan! I hope you know that the filming of this cartoon  , is not a small attempt by our company, but it sets off a wave of animation and allows the world to see our superb Hollywood shooting standards again."

    With an expected filming cost of 150 million, Harry was stunned. Does the filming of a cartoon really require such a sky-high amount of filming capital?

    Akiva¡¯s face turned into tears and laughter as he said, ¡°Then you still asked me to complete the script in seven days, knowing that this is impossible!¡±

    Zhou Shaoming narrowed his eyes and responded to Akiva: "This cartoon may take us more than a year. I don't like procrastinating things, maybe because I am too eager to complete this cartoon.  Because of this, maybe it was my fault that I didn¡¯t explain it clearly to you in advance.¡±

    Akiva took back the script. It was rare for him to have his script returned by Zhou Shaoming. However, at the beginning of this year, Akiva had his script returned twice by Zhou Shaoming!

    "I understand, Zhou, don't worry! I understand everything you said. Give me three days and I will complete it with Harry." After Akiva understood all Zhou Shaoming's intentions, he promised in front of Zhou Shaoming!

    "I believe you!" Zhou Shaoming nodded. Akiva does not make promises to others easily, but once he agrees, it proves that he can definitely do it!

    After Akiva and Harry left, Zhou Shaoming gradually became excited!  Indeed, there are many loopholes in the script that the two handed over, but as far as the story itself is concerned, Zhou Shaoming is very satisfied!

    "Zhou, you thought of me for no reason." Just when Zhou Shaoming was distracted, the system's voice rang in Zhou Shaoming's mind!

    "System?" Zhou Shaoming was a little stunned. He really said that Cao ** and Cao ** are here!  However, Zhou Shaoming seems to be a little afraid of the system now!  This **** guy won't give himself some very difficult box office performance goals again!

    The system asked in surprise: "Are you calling me a **** again?"

    Zhou Shaoming was dumbfounded and quickly explained: "No, I definitely didn't say such a thing!"

    The system snorted and said, "But it depends on your heart."

    Zhou Shaoming didn¡¯t know whether to laugh or cry. How could such a thing exist in his body? He quickly said: "This is definitely my inner demon at work, and it is definitely not my original intention!"

    "Your mouth is getting more and more glib, but, Zhou, are you sure you are confident that we can handle such a hugely expensive cartoon production this time?" The system sounded a little worried. As for the previous joke, the system did not follow Zhou Shaoming.  Argued!

    "Yes, I regret now that I have to shoot such a huge cartoon. I think I might as well forget it. I don't have any confidence in myself. Anyway, the script has not been written yet. I will cancel this shooting and look for other good projects."?Forget about the movie script.  "Zhou Shaoming sighed, with a sad look on his face!

    "Don't pretend to be pitiful in front of me. Don't forget that I'm just a roundworm in your belly. I don't know what you're thinking!" The system looked a little disgusted and said, "Don't worry, I'm not here this time.  I¡¯m here to arrange the box office results for you. Anyway, I don¡¯t think this cartoon will be a big hit if you shoot it, and you won¡¯t be able to complete the task!¡±

    Zhou Shaoming is cheating again. This system is here to chat with him, not to attack him!  Zhou Shaoming coughed and said to the system: "You're here to attack me, right? Tell me, given your character, what kind of mission did you come out with?"

    The system chuckled and said, "You guessed it."

    Zhou Shaoming sighed and said to the system: "You are here to supervise me and assign tasks to me. Apart from this, I can't think of any other reason. Since there is no requirement for the box office performance of this movie, it must be an award."  It¡¯s the mission.¡±

    "Good, Zhou, you are getting smarter and smarter." The system laughed loudly and said: "Zhou, although this is your first animation, you still have requirements after all. In next year's Oscars, I want  I saw your movie win the award for Best Animated Feature."

    Zhou Shaoming forced a smile on his face, "I'll try my best."

    The system shook his head and said: "It's not about trying your best, but you have to get it! By the way, I forgot to tell you that in addition to some details that you need to pay attention to during the filming of the cartoon you are considering, you also need to think more deeply.  s things!"

    "What is it?" Zhou Shaoming's eyes lit up at this moment. The system had been around for so long, and he finally said something that could help him!

    "Details, details, personality! Think about it carefully." The system said and disappeared from Zhou Shaoming's mind!

    Zhou Shaoming's eyes opened instantly, as if he suddenly woke up after a dream, and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. The sudden appearance of this guy from the system really surprised Zhou Shaoming!

    When it comes to the Oscar for Best Animated Film, this system is really going to make things difficult for you!  But what did the last sentence he said mean?

    "Details of details? Display of personality?" Zhou Shaoming said to himself!  After thinking for a long time, Zhou Shaoming cried and laughed: "Isn't this nonsense? Anyone can say these things!"

    Zhou Shaoming couldn¡¯t help but shake his head, stood up, and was ready to go home!  Before the script came out, it seemed like I couldn¡¯t do anything!  After getting up, Zhou Shaoming was stunned!

    detail?  When I asked Akivahari and the two of them to pay attention to the details in the story when they were writing the script, I ignored that I didn't do these things at all!

    Although the script has not been perfected yet, during this period of time, I have not done anything and am always waiting. So what are I waiting for?

    Do you really have to wait for the script to be released before filming this movie?  When Zhou Shaoming thought of this, he suddenly realized!

    No, it¡¯s not that I¡¯m waiting, it¡¯s just that I found a reason for myself!  Just a grand reason!  This period of rest may make you a lot more lazy!

    Zhou Shaoming thought about himself during this period, and suddenly found a leisurely mood, which really made him relax a lot. Perhaps the movie Iron Man brought him too many honors. In addition to losing at the Oscar, he was unlucky and did not get the award this year.  Beyond the favor of Oscar judges!

    The remaining honors of Iron Man are enough for Zhou Shaoming to reach another peak in life!

    So that¡¯s it!  A calm smile appeared on Zhou Shaoming's lips, and he gradually began to understand what to do?

    Zhou Shaoming looked at his watch. It was already past four in the afternoon, and it was almost time to get off work, but he could do some things in such a short time!  If you can't finish it, you can work overtime!

    Thinking of this, Zhou Shaoming suddenly brightened up!  "Ben, come to my office!"

    Benjamin came to the office and saw Zhou Shaoming sitting on a chair, as if thinking about something!  "Zhou, what do you want from me?"

    Benjamin looked at Zhou Shaoming¡¯s back and couldn¡¯t imagine what Zhou Shaoming could do to him at this time.  The car for Zhou Shaoming has been arranged!  Benjamin still felt a little proud in his heart!

    Zhou Shaoming turned around and said to Benjamin who came in: "By the way, Ben, recently helped me start to pay attention to the art director candidates we need in the Kung Fu Panda crew, and also helped me invite more than 20 oil painters from all over the country and even the world.  Master! By the way, this art director should have about ten years of experience in studying Chinese art!"

    Benjamin was stunned, and said a little dumbfounded: "Ah!" BenThinking that Zhou Shaoming was going home, Benjamin was dumbfounded!  I never expected that Zhou Shaoming would let himself do so many things at once!

    Zhou Shaoming frowned and asked, "What's wrong? What are you questioning?"

    Benjamin quickly came to his senses and responded: "I understand, Zhou, what are you doing just for a while?"

    Zhou Shaoming took a deep breath, as if Benjamin was a little sluggish at this time, "Of course they are filming a movie, are they here for the beauty pageant?"

    "How's the discussion going with the Hollywood stunt team?" Zhou Shaoming asked with some dissatisfaction!

    Benjamin frowned and said, "We haven't reached an agreement yet!"

    Zhou Shaoming squinted his eyes. Zhou Shaoming, who usually left these matters to Benjamin or George, felt relieved, but this time he asked accidentally, but he didn't expect that this little thing had not been done yet!  Asked: "What's the reason?"

    Benjamin said truthfully, "The main issue is the price. This time we opened a large order of tens of millions for the stunt team, but they were so outrageous that they asked for a production cost of fifty million!"

    Zhou Shaoming took a deep breath and frowned. Indeed, when filming this cartoon, he had already thought that it would be quite difficult!  Zhou Shaoming, who had been mentally prepared, said: "It's impossible. Our company must have its own special effects team, but it's still far from Hollywood's level! I'll personally follow up on this matter! By the way, the production cost of Kung Fu Panda  , do you have a detailed list?¡±

    Benjamin shook his head and said: "It's very difficult now because I haven't seen any scripts yet!"

    Zhou Shaoming hesitated and said: "Give Akiva three more days, but according to my estimate, it will be within 150 million at least! So during the production of this cartoon, everything and every detail must be done  To the best! Know what I mean.¡±

    Benjamin nodded quickly, do you want to spend such a huge amount of money to produce this cartoon?  It seems that since the filming of Iron Man was completed, Zhou Shaoming no longer focused on those commercial blockbusters with huge production costs!

    After Zhou Shaoming hesitated for a moment, he said to Benjamin: "Prepare the car and go to the production base of our Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Company!"

    In this movie base, Zhou Shaoming knew that this would be where Kung Fu Panda needed to be completed!  At this time, Zhou Shaoming wanted to come here to understand the situation with his company's special effects team while it was still dark!

    Benjamin nodded and responded: "Okay!"

    The car took Zhou Shaoming to the Supernova Entertainment Film and Television Base. In this recently completed film and television base, Zhou Shaoming discovered that the special effects filming for the movie Hulk 2 was being filmed here!

    Tesla actually came over in person when he saw Zhou Shaoming, "Zhou, why are you here at the filming site!"

    Zhou Shaoming saw the crew members of The Incredible Hulk 2 and said with a smile on his face: "I heard that you are leading the team to shoot the stunts of the Incredible Hulk 2 movie here, so I came over to take a look."

    Tesla was stunned for a moment, "Okay, come and have a look." Tesla knew very well that Zhou Shaoming was not just here to watch the filming of the movie, there must be other things!

    "This is a stunt scene in Hulk 2. Of course, due to the intensive filming of our company this year, there is no other way! We can only use this film and television base early!" Tesla said with a smile!

    Zhou Shaoming said with a smile on his face: "You guys are still thoughtful."

    Tesla complained: "Also, I not only have to shoot Hulk 2, but I also have to prepare for the movie Iron Man 2. It's really a heavy burden!"

    Tesla patted Tesla on the shoulder and said: "I know you are very capable, so I arranged so many things for you! Don't worry, if the filming of my new movie goes well, I will take over Iron Man at the end of the year.  A series of movies! But if something unexpected happens, we¡¯ll be in trouble!¡±

    Tesla was expecting Zhou Shaoming to change his words, but what he said was still the same as what he said before!  "New movie? Have you chosen the script?"

    Zhou Shaoming nodded and said, "Yes, it's a cartoon!"

    Tesla was stunned and said: "Cartoons, the competitive market for cartoons in North America is very fierce now. Everyone has seen that cartoons are very profitable in the film market, and their box office results are very good! So, in this case  Under the circumstances, I think you must be under a lot of pressure when shooting!"

    Zhou Shaoming nodded and said, "Yeah, don't you want to ask the elite stunt members of our company what they think of a superb animation stunt production?"

    Tesla took a deep breath and said: "I'm not attacking you, we are the public?¡¯s staff can still produce some simple stunts, but with such demanding stunts for cartoons, it seems impossible for them to get started at once!  You also know that elites with strong abilities in this area usually form their own teams!  "

    Zhou Shaoming took a deep breath and said, "Of course I know, but the Hollywood production team we have been cooperating with actually wants 50 million in production costs, which is really a headache!"

    Tesla smiled and said: "The lion is open, but I think you must just ask Benjamin to test it out! After all, the script has not yet appeared, and they want such a fee because they want to finalize it in the future.  Be prepared for the price.¡±

    Zhou Shaoming took a deep breath and said, "Of course I know this! I heard that many film and television companies are producing cartoons, and the market competition is huge!"

    Tesla smiled wisely and said: "I don't understand you anymore. You can't do anything you're not sure of! It seems that you plan to invest more than hundreds of millions in this cartoon. Plus the post-publicity expenses,  The cost may reach 200 million?"

    Zhou Shaoming nodded. Tesla also knew a lot about film production and shooting. When Tesla heard these things, he felt confident!  "Yeah, but I still have a headache. Before the script came out, I didn't have any thoughts!"

    Tesla frowned and said: "Of course, the Hollywood production team is indispensable, but we can hire a large number of excellent animation production personnel from foreign countries. Since we have such abundant production funds, why not do more  Be more perfect!¡±

    Zhou Shaoming heard Tesla¡¯s suggestion, ¡°Abroad?¡±

    Tesla said with certainty: "Yes. Abroad, this method not only allows film production to achieve excellence, but also has a publicity effect. If such a commercial blockbuster does not earn more than 500 million yuan, then  Just don¡¯t do it! However, with the box office of cartoons, it is difficult to do this! At least it must have a box office of more than 300 million in the North American film market!"

    Tesla said with a smile on his face and said: "Zhou, are you sure that the cartoon you are going to shoot will have such high box office revenue?" (To be continued.)
