Chapter 61 Special Effects Master! Mystery Guest!
The next day, Anton flew to Hollywood, and the crew of Cyborg officially started.
In the previous life, the big movie of "Cyborg" has been postponed, and the plot is unknown, but based on the understanding of DC and the discussion with Browning, the two finally determined the script.
It is nothing more than gaining the ability, discovering the crisis, and solving the crisis.
Superhero movies are like this.
Similar to Shuangwen.
The only difference is that a person is sitting on the sofa at home with a mobile phone and giggling, or someone is sitting in a movie drinking Coke and chewing popcorn, watching with relish.
In this world, the routines of superhero films are still relatively novel, and Anton is confident that he can make a successful film.
If you take out a reference, "Steel" can benchmark the previous life "Iron Man 1".
"Iron Man 1" invested 140 million yuan, excluding pre-preparation and post-production, the specific shooting period officially announced is about 105 days.
Anton also prepared 140 million yuan, and plans to spend about 90 days to complete the filming. According to the way of filming "The Mystery of Xia Ying", the special effects will be promoted simultaneously, and it is best to release it in the second month after the filming.
It took 4 months from filming to release, which is a bit incredible for a large-scale superhero special effect film, but with sufficient funds, this is a completely achievable goal.
Moreover, the level of technology in this world itself is a little higher than that of the previous generation, and there are all kinds of black technologies emerging in an endless stream, and special effects are not a problem.
Anton even took aim at a talent.
If this person and his team can be dug over, the special effects will not be a problem.
While thinking about it, the male lead, a young black actor, started his vivid performance in the camera.
Black star.
This is also one of the reasons why Anton feels that "Steel Bone" can at least recover the cost and never lose money.
In the previous life, the superhero film "Black Panther", which was also a black protagonist, catered to the feelings and national consciousness of the old American black group, and was sought after by the black group. With its own attraction, the local box office was about 700 million, and the global box office was about 700 million. 1.346 billion, an amazing rate of return.
Although there is a Black Panther in this world, the world's film industry, the superhero film with black as the protagonist, is a huge breakthrough.
As long as the movie is released and the quality is up to standard, with proper publicity, it will definitely be sought after by the black community, and at the same time, the fan value of Steel Bone will quickly exceed 20 million.
As you can imagine, Cyborg is much easier to succeed than Batman.
The premise is the right medicine.
...
Time flies by a month.
The closed scenes in Hollywood and ordinary outdoor scenes have been filmed.
Next, Anton divided the crew into two, and led the black star and others back to New York, while the others filmed other fragmentary scenes and fully promoted special effects production.
This time, without the reference of the original film, Anton could not give the special effects department too much creative guidance, so he had to work hard day and night for the special effects department.
Of course, given enough money, not many people complained.
Back in New York, Anton and others are about to shoot Victor Stone in the Red Room Laboratory, and he was affected by the explosion of the Apocalypse mother box, thus turning into a "steel" scene.
To this end, Anton specially contacted Osborne and prepared to borrow their latest laboratory for shooting.
With his friendly relationship with the Osborne Company, the lab is a research hub, but not shut out.
Moreover, the son of the Osborn Company, Harry Osborn, is also an investor in the film.
In this way, the Osborn Company is better able to speak.
After signing the "guarantee agreement", which includes the use cycle of the laboratory, the length of daily shooting, does not affect other people's work, and will not damage any important experimental equipment, etc. After the treaty, Anton finally led the crew to settle in Osborne. .
They will be here for the next two weeks.
Coincidentally, Anton found that the laboratory on the floor he occupied was the "Limb Regeneration Technology" department downstairs.
He also discovered that Peter Parker, Spider-Man, was working as the head of the "Limb Regeneration Technology" department and Kurt Connors' assistant.
During the filming, Peter learned that someone upstairs borrowed the laboratory to make a movie, and it was the crew that used to film Batman. He came up to watch it for a long time, and only went downstairs reluctantly after being urged by Connors.
Anton knows what might happen in the future, but his main task now is to make movies.
Second, Connors hasn't turned into a lizard yet.
Even if Anton knew the ending, it was impossible for him not to do business. He would watch Connors turn into a lizard all day long, or directly incarnate as Batman. He went downstairs and knocked out the disabled professor with a stick. Then he would be sent to Purgatory for the rest of his life, partnering with Jin Ping. Live your life--they haven't done bad things yet!
This is not realistic.
In short, as long as Connors can normally keep up with him during his shooting, he doesn't plan to care about it.
Give Connors to Peter to solve, and it can also sublime the little spider a little.
...
At the end of the day's shooting, Anton announced a break.
He then went back to DC, not far from Osborn, to meet the special effects master he had been looking forward to for a long time.
"Mr Baker, it's a pleasure to meet you."
Anton smiled at the man in his 30s and said, "I appreciate your special effects works, including the holographic system you are researching. It is a revolutionary breakthrough with unlimited application scenarios that can change human beings. way of life and entertainment.”
"Mr. Anton, do you really think so?"
Quentin Baker looked excited, feeling that for the first time in years of his career, he had received such affirmative recognition.
Especially in those days when he was working at Stark Industries, those bastards who only knew how to develop weapons would not have the slightest identification with his invention and his pursuit, and would only feel that he was wasting his talent.
To be honest, even Tony Stark thinks holographic systems are a commonplace technology, after all, he has already touched on the answer.
Tony has a holographic projection system under his mansion in Los Angeles. As part of Jarvis's carrier, it is convenient for him to do some virtual experiments. It may not be the same as Baker's relative pursuit of real research, but the level of technology is undoubtedly. Deeper than Quentin Baker at this time.
That's why, in Tony's view, Baker's research is not worth mentioning.
Baker didn't know this, he just thought that everyone looked down on him, and the anger accumulated over the years made him almost autistic.
Perhaps this is also the reason why he became a "Mysterio" with hatred for Tony after Tony's death, mixed into the superhero world, deceived Spider-Man's "glasses", and intended to surpass Iron Man.
Sadly, he ended up being a stepping stone for the little spider.
Of course, Baker's fate changed at this time, because Anton, who was a traveler, found him and praised Baker's research direction.
For Anton, Baker is indeed a rare talent.
As a special effects master who has deceived the world, if Baker joins DC, then film special effects production is simply a piece of cake.
Moreover, Anton also knows that in the comic version, Mysterio itself is a Hollywood special effects practitioner.
match of major.
"Baker, give up Stark Industries, you should come to me."
Anton was decisive and shook hands with Quentin Baker, with a very sincere tone: "Only with me can you give full play to your full value."
