Hollywood legendary director

Early the next morning, Lyman pulled Thomas again.

After meeting, this guy still complains habitually, saying that the preparation work can be left to others, but he can't.

But Lehman ignored these. This guy was not enterprising. If Lehman hadn't forced him to take on more work, he would definitely not want to take over the production rights.

However, they met Wei Mo, and Lehman still wanted to give him a hand.

He laughed and said: "Life is a constant toss, what are you doing idle. You don't have a bit of "American Dream" in your mind."

Thomas replied: "What dreams, I can make money to support myself."

Afterwards, Lehman started to talk about it again, stubbornly persuading a few words, in short, Thomas, you must be motivated, not motivated is to apologize for the country, the people, and the support of your hometown.

Is it easy for us to gain a foothold in the United States?Can't slack off.

Thomas' face turned green when he was said to have no choice but to respond, and Lehman stopped preaching and pouring chicken soup.

Thomas clutched his head, "Then what are you doing here for me?"

Lyman patted him on the shoulder, "I want to give you a task in the organization..."

Before Lehman finished speaking, Thomas interrupted, "No, I'm busy enough, I can't squeeze out any time. Really, you can find someone else. Ryan, Garcia...who... Anyway, but I can't."

"No? No!" Lehmanjia patted him on the shoulder with all his strength, and patted him as soon as he said something.

Thomas finally begged for mercy: "Forget it, just say something, I will do it, I will do it."

Lyman stopped, smiled again, and he was relieved after explaining the situation to Thomas.

"It turned out to be looking for a special effects company to discuss the shooting. I'll accompany you."

Lehman also said: "In terms of special effects, Hollywood is the only famous one. I want to go to the digital field to see how their quotations are. I heard someone say yesterday that the business capabilities in the digital field are very good and the prices are also good. Not the most expensive."

"The digital field? Isn't that Cameron's special effects studio. Are we looking for this one?"

James Cameron is a well-known tech fanatic, with more than half of his wealth invested in the digital field.

After all, one of the special effects companies at this time was considered one, and they were all trading at a loss.

Firstly, because there is too much competitive pressure, there are too many companies on the market that can do movie special effects, and there are too few business needs;

The second reason is that the application of new technologies always requires constant investment in research to produce results.

Lehman nodded, "The level of business in the digital field is still very strong. We can visit this one first."

......

......

"What is the matter with you two?"

"A movie has several shots that need special effects."

"do you have any requests?"

"Can we go see your company first."

"of course can."

After Lyman and Thomas called to the digital field for an appointment, a short time later, someone greeted them.This white man who looks a little prematurely decayed, and is typical of Silicon Valley practitioners' simple dress, and can even be said to not pay much attention to dress, is called Bossi. He is 28 years old but looks like 35 or 6.

He was also not very polite. He figured out that Lehman and Thomas belonged to the type of people with business needs, and immediately agreed to take them to the company together.

The group drove from Burbank and took about 20 minutes to the office in the digital domain.

But after arriving, Thomas was somewhat unconcealed.

In fact, Lehman was also a little surprised.

According to Bossi, this area is an ordinary residential area, with the kind of desolation and lack of infrastructure that are characteristic of the suburbs of Los Angeles, and the room types are a bit old.

"Is it here?" Thomas still couldn't help but asked.

"Well, just ahead."

Bossi is more natural.

The three of them snaked along some damp alleys, and the clutter of buildings made it easy to get lost in the road.

All of them seem inconspicuous, as if it is impossible for a company like the digital field to fall here.

Unfortunately, Thomas was disappointed.

The headquarters of the digital field is really here.

After about 3 or 4 minutes of walking, at the upper left of a low building, there was a slightly dilapidated light board, which was the name of the studio.

Bossi made a call before pushing the door open.

After walking in, there is not even a reception desk, or Bossi is their reception desk and guest reception staff.

Anyway, what Lehman could see was a large space like a warehouse, with a pile of desks gathered on both sides.It is also a messy style.

The whole place highlights the aesthetics of a unique technical otaku, but there is no trace of art.

"Good morning, Mr. Lyman."

A white man in his 30s, wearing glasses and holding a cup of coffee, walked quickly and greeted warmly.

"They have business needs. It should be a new movie." Bossi stepped forward and lowered his voice to remind him.

Subsequently, the reception became more enthusiastic.

They walked around and found that in addition to the layout and decoration, they had everything they should have, and the floor space was quite large. There were several similar warehouses in the back with people working.The staff is not too much, not too few.

Perhaps it is precisely because this is a suburban area that the office area can be so large.Both are more spacious than Lyman's Firefly Pictures.

After walking around, a few people sat down in an office.

Lehman deliberated and explained his intentions. After meeting his own needs, the coffee man said: "Do you want us to take over the special effects work of the movie. This is just right. We don't have any important projects in the near future. side."

"What about the price?"

"Is this? It mainly depends on the workload and time. If more energy is invested, it will be more expensive. If it is easy to do, it will be less.

"Similar to the monster lens of the "Alien" series, there are several scene renderings, the whole workload should not be large. Can you make a concept map first? We need to see the effect before we can decide whether to hire you to participate in the project Production." Lehman said.

"This is natural, but the concept map also needs..."

"How much do you need?" Lehman interrupted.

"Five working days, eighty thousand dollars."

"What if I am not satisfied with the renderings?"

"This, we must be careful, there will be multiple sets of alternatives." The coffee man explained weakly.

Let him, a science graduate, really lack momentum, and Lehman can take away basic topics.

"Well, let's do that. I will pay a deposit of 50,000 yuan first, and if I am satisfied, I will pay 30,000 yuan. What do you think?" Lehman didn't ask about alternatives and couldn't make people sure about what would happen. condition.

"Uh, it's okay, you come back in five days."
