Chapter 1001: New World, New Mission...

The two leaned against the head of the bed, and Zhou Xinyan asked, "What kind of movie do you want to make, what kind of movie do you want to make, what kind of movie you return from the Great Sage, or what kind of movie Xiong Da Xiong Er, how much are you going to invest."

"Have you seen the latest "The Lion King"?" Jiang Hao asked.

"No."

Jiang Hao took his phone and opened a video. It was a promotional trailer for the new version of the Lion King. The animals in it were extremely realistic and were similar to real animals. After watching it, Zhou Xinyan said, "This one has not been released yet, right?"

"It hasn't been released yet, it seems to be a scheduled summer vacation." Jiang Hao said.

"It's very realistic, with a full CG picture and a high restoration. How much does it cost if you are going to shoot this kind of thing?" Zhou Xinyan asked.

"The data released by the Lion King live version of Disney is that it invests more than US$200 million, and most of the money is spent on CG screen production." Jiang Hao said.

"Are you going to invest so much money in "Beast Blood Boiling"?" Zhou Xinyan stared at Jiang Hao.

Jiang Hao shook his head with a smile, "I have my own CG picture production program. I dare say that the level of animation production is only stronger than that of the United States, and it uses more artificial intelligence technology, so the cost can be less."

Zhou Xinyan's eyes lit up, "Honey, you have developed a new technology. Can this animation production technology work like the previous pet war game?"

If it is another software that goes against the sky, then their Haoran Technology can take off again.

"This software has leading technology, but the market is not big and its targetedness is too strong. It is animation production. I plan to try it out with a movie first. The effect is good. Maybe I will open a special effects company to add some effort to China's 3D film production." Jiang Hao said.

A few days later, the company contacted Qidian and acquired the copyright of Beast Blood Boiling. The two parties began to enter the negotiation stage. As for the copyright of the game, the Baiyou company actually planned to sell the copyright with the game.

It’s good to talk about some, but the rest is money.

After several rounds of negotiations, Haoran Technology bought several copyrights about "Beast Blood Boiling" in Qidian, which cost 6 million yuan. As for the game company, it cost more than 40 million yuan to pack it. It’s neither good nor bad.

Haoran Technology has inexplicably added a game company that has lost money.

When signing the contract, Jiang Hao met Qidian's senior management, and Jingguan, the original author of "Beast Blood Boiling", Jingguan was in his forties and was slightly fat. He was a little restrained when both sides shook hands and greeted each other.

"I was already in college when I first read this book. I had finished it for seven or eight years, but it still made me excited. When I think about it, that was the years of youth." Jiang Hao sighed.

"Mr. Jiang is also very young now." The old official said with a smile.

"You also know that there are many contents in this book that must be modified, otherwise it will be useless if you can't pass the review, and it will be useless to make a movie. What I am interested in is the world structure of this book. After obtaining the copyright, it will be processed again. I hope you don't mind." Jiang Hao said.

"I can understand it, it's a second growth." Jingguan said.

A book is like the author's child. No matter how beautiful or ugly it is, it is their own. If others wantonly modify it, each author actually feels not very happy. However, novels and movies are two different art forms, and it is impossible to copy them completely. Modification and processing are inevitable.

"Ask me, is Mr. Ma interested in participating in script creation?" Jiang Hao suddenly said, sending an invitation to Jingguan.

Jingguan showed a look of surprise on his face, and agreed without much hesitation, "Okay, if possible, I also hope that my children will grow up in my own hands."

It is not that easy to make a movie. Jiang Hao found Tencent Film and Television again. He is one of the major shareholders of Tencent Film and Television, so he is naturally better to speak. After meeting Mr. Zhou, he said that he was going to invest in a fantasy movie. Zhou Fangping was slightly surprised.

"Fantasy movies are similar to the 'Pi's fantasy drift' and 'Fantasy Forest'?"

Jiang Hao shook his head, "A purely realistic movie similar to the new Lion King."

Zhou Fangping was even more surprised, "I heard that Disney's new Lion King invested $200 million, which is a huge production. Is Mr. Jiang going to make such a big investment for the first time he played movies?"

"It shouldn't be worth $200 million, I plan to invest about $80 million," said Jiang Hao.

80 million US dollars, at the current exchange rate, it is 550 million. There are not many domestic investors who invest so many times to make a movie. It seems that the wandering earth has not reached this size. Zhou Fangping said sincerely, knowing that you have money, but we can't waste money like this.

"I bought the full copyright of this story, and the next question is the production issue. Is Tencent Film and Television interested in participating? Also, I want to use Tencent's production team and am preparing to go to Tencent's distribution channel. What does Mr. Zhou feel?" Jiang Hao asked.

Zhou Fangping blinked. This was a big deal. After all, it involved several hundred million investments. Besides, he had no confidence in Jiang Hao's ability. A technology company boss made a movie, which was purely fun and had such a big investment.

"Mr. Jiang, we need to study the investment matters. There is no problem with the production team and issuance channels. You are also a shareholder of the company. When should I say it?" Zhou Fangping said.

"No rush now, I haven't started preparing yet, and the script is still being created." Jiang Hao said.

After Jiang Hao left, Zhou Fangping called the company's senior management to discuss and told Jiang Hao about it. If it were someone else, I'm afraid the people here would have refused. They wanted to make a 550 million movie. This is either a person or a money-related fever.

"The danger is too great. Our investment this year is only more than 400 million yuan. It involves several movies and TV series. Mr. Jiang came up and wanted to make a movie that was comparable to the new Lion King. I feel it was too risky, but he has money and can afford it." A deputy general manager said.

"I don't recommend investing either. I have watched the Lion King promotional video. It's the world's top technical level. Disney spent 200 million US dollars, and Mr. Jiang spent 80 million. I'm afraid that in the end it will be inappropriate and the possibility of failure is even greater."

"I don't recommend it either. It's okay to use the shooting team and release. Let's just forget about investment. We have to be responsible for the head office."

When talking about the headquarters and thinking about the relationship between Jiang Hao and General Ma, Zhou Fangping called Xiao Ma after the meeting and told him about the matter here.

The other end of the phone was silent for a while and said, "Follow up and invest, just $20 million. If Jiang Hao needs it, send the best staff to cooperate."

Zhou Fangping didn't expect the boss to make such a decision, "Mr. Ma, we discussed that the investment this time is extremely dangerous, and the most likely it is to lose all your money." Zhou Fangping advised.

"No, you don't understand Jiang Hao. Although we haven't been in contact for a long time, he is not a random personality. He is very smart in business and does not invest randomly. He is not to promote celebrities. He must have unique features. To put it bluntly, I am investing in him."

"Also, Tencent Film and Television has 35% of the shares. If this investment is lost, one-third of it is also Jiang Hao's." said Brother Ma.

Jiang Hao received a call from Zhou Fangping, "Mr. Jiang, we have studied and decided to invest US$20 million in your movie, accounting for one-quarter of the total investment. As for resource issues, Tencent Film and Television will fully support it."

After hearing the other party's words, Jiang Hao smiled slightly, "Zhou Zhou hasn't called Mr. Ma."

"Oh~~! Haha, such a big thing, and when it comes to Mr. Jiang, I called Mr. Ma to report it." Zhou Fangping said.

Jiang Hao guessed that it was Little Ma who asked them to do this. The possibility of investing is not high because they are not optimistic about him at all. But now, they have received 20 million US dollars and have also pulled Tencent Film and Television into the car.

The script was created in the second creation and the crew began to be formed. Now it is only the stage of selecting personnel. Shooting a movie is a major project, and Jiang Hao is also busy and has begun to create characters.

The novel is written in words. How beautiful and handsome the male protagonist writes, how romantic and elegant the hero is, but in the movie, there must be a specific image, which is the most in line with aesthetics. This is a very test of people.

The protagonist Liu Zhenhan was originally a tall soldier who was majestic and domineering and handsome. It was hard to find such a person. Jiang Hao came to the bathroom, washed his face, looked up at the mirror, and said, "Hey, isn't this the protagonist I'm looking for? He is so majestic and domineering and handsome. Who is this? Oh, it turns out it's me."

Jiang Hao immediately decided to use his image as the male lead Liu Zhenhan.

At this moment, Jiang Hao seemed to have opened up his mind. Since this is the case, the heroine in the novel can also borrow the image of women in other worlds. Of course, she will perform artistic processing again, so that people cannot see their true colors.

Helen, Gotani, Ningyu, Sissi, Golini, Tanya, Joan of Arc, Choi Beixi, Vivien Leigh, Avril...

Female characters are made one by one, and each one is heartwarming when you watch it.

Then Jiang Hao made a promotional video for about 50 seconds, but it was the 50-second film. It took several servers of Haoran Technology to complete it after several days. Jiang Hao sighed that CG production is really a machine-burning machine, otherwise those Hollywood videos would be made with supercomputers now.

When my film and television production is a bit in mind, I guess the new company has been built, Inspur is building a supercomputer for me. The company has built a supercomputer for me and it is time to enter the market. Then I will use the supercomputer to make this video, and everything is just right.

As for whether this film will lose money after making it, Jiang Hao feels that it should not lose money. Now the Chinese film market is so big, as long as the effect meets his expectations, it is not a big problem to make a return of hundreds of millions of dollars in investment. There are still very few real 3D videos like this now.

Then we will go to the European and American circles to make money, and they will export our total culture and we will also have an inverted input. This is called an English name, and then we will all call it Chinese names, so that Europeans and Americans will also start to get in touch with Chinese.

Besides, Jiang Hao said that he would not have used that much to invest 80 million US dollars. He used his supercomputer to do CG animation, which was a fee. After all, he stopped investing 40 million. Tencent Pictures invested 20 million. Haha, in fact, he only had to take out 20 million.

The promotional video was made, Jiang Hao called Tencent Film and Television people to watch the film. It was just a 50-second picture. Several bosses of Tencent Film and Television came and turned into a temporary screening room in Haoran Technology's conference room.

When the first picture flashed out, everyone couldn't help but feel a little in their hearts. It was so exquisite and realistic. The ocean, birds, islands, trees, and the coconut forest blowing by the sea breeze. The camera quickly passed by. People could see that it was a CG animation, but it was not much different from the real scene, and the effect was even more shocking.

The protagonist Liu Zhenhan appeared, everyone was slightly stunned, and Zhou Xinyan even glanced at Jiang Hao for a few more times. Jiang Hao was unmoved and looked at the scene with his eyes focused.

Then countless shots flashed, and many women appeared. Each of them had their own unique styles, including both eastern and western. White wings grew behind the Swan clan, like an angel. Zhou Xinyan looked at Jiang Hao in surprise. Jiang Hao turned his head this time and blinked at her.

Because Zhou Xinyan discovered that the appearance of this Swan clan member was a bit similar to her, and it was more beautiful. The biggest difference was that the beauty of the Swan clan had long golden hair.

Zhou Xinyan suddenly remembered the scene of Jiang Hao asking her to carry her wings on her back and her golden wig. She immediately knew that this man was really bad. She dug him hard again and turned her head to continue watching the movie.

The beauty is followed by an alien image, with obvious animal signs, but all humanoid. At the end of the promotional video, there is a scene of two armies confronting each other. There are thousands of Beast soldiers of different forms confronting each other, and then a roar is rushing towards the other side, as if a war is about to break out.

Then,

The screen is over.

Everyone had a feeling of unsatisfactory feeling. A short 50-second promotional video evoked everyone's nature. Zhou Fangping looked at Jiang Hao, "Mr. Jiang, did you make this picture?"

"Yes, I used the 3D engine animation production technology I developed myself to be similar to the game scene of pet battles, and it will only be more realistic and vivid. The characters' actions are intelligently extracted, and even the real-life green cloth can be abandoned to shoot and finalize." Jiang Hao said.

Tencent Film and Television are all half professionals, so naturally they know how difficult this technology is. Zhou Fangping suddenly raised a little confidence and expectation for this investment. He had always thought it was wasted, but now he found that he might have dug a gold mine.

"Mr. Jiang, I dare say that this promotional video is not inferior to the new Lion King at all. If the whole video has such an effect, I feel that the domestic box office will explode." Zhou Fangping suddenly increased his confidence and said with a smile on his face.

"The 3D version will be produced later. When you use 3D effects, it will be even more shocking." Jiang Hao said.

Zhou Fangping was even happier and said quickly: "I am looking forward to it, I hope that China's first 3D realistic film will be born in Tencent Film and Television."

"It is guaranteed that this quality is OK, but slow work will be done carefully, and the entire production will take about one or two years." Jiang Hao said.

"It's not long, it's not long, such a realistic film, the production cycle of two years is not long." Zhou Fangping said immediately.

A promotional video made Tencent Film and Television's confidence increase greatly, and everyone was very happy. Jiang Hao was preparing to plan the film production, and at this moment, a system prompt sound suddenly came from his mind.

"Ding~~The system releases new tasks!"
