The most obvious gap between China and Hollywood is the special effects.

To change to a more professional adjective, it is called film industry technology.

This time, the Film Bureau asked Wei Xun to lead the team and organize a learning activity for young directors, which is essentially intended to encourage young directors to use the special effects of the film industry.

The five young directors, except for the art film director Lin Fan, are all blockbuster directors, including Wei Xun, Bao Qiang, Kang Cheng and Xiao Xiaoyang, which is very telling.

Especially Xiao Xiaoyang, animation and industrial movies almost all rely on special effects to support them.

The ability of Hollywood to conquer the world is essentially due to the film industry technology to crush the output.

If Chinese films want to go abroad, they must first be equipped with technology.

Wei Xun and others stayed in a hotel booked in Hollywood for one night. The next day, the five people came to the storm special effects with the official work cards.

"I never thought that one day I would be here."

Xiao Xiaoyang stood at the door of this company, looked up at the logo on it, and said with a complicated expression: "The world's most powerful special effects company, the cutting-edge leader in film industry technology, and currently half of the top special effects blockbusters in Hollywood come from here."

It can be said that this ‘special effects factory’ is equivalent to a profound epitome of Hollywood’s industrial technology.

Wei Xun said with a smile: "I'm here to visit today. Maybe in the future, Director Xiao will come here as a partner."

Xiao Xiaoyang sighed when he heard this, and he obviously had no confidence: "Hope."

The top special effects movie, in other words, is a science fiction movie.

Currently, in Chinese movies, those who make money are always comedy, action movies, romance movies, etc., but there are never science fiction movies.

Because the investment is too large, the special effects are like burning money. If you ask the Storm to make a movie, it starts at 100 million or 200 million. Which investor dares to spend money on Xiao Xiaoyang to shoot like this?

And as we all know, the Chinese market cannot afford science fiction movies.

Not only can’t afford to support it… there is no director who can make it. Science fiction movies can be said to be a pain point in the hearts of Chinese movie fans in recent years.

"Hello, Director, I am Zhang Xu, an employee of the Storm Special Effects Technical Group."

As soon as I walked into the storm special effect, a young boy wearing glasses came over and said with a smile: "I will take everyone in to visit later. Of course, my authority is limited to visiting the technical department."

This boy named Zhang Xu speaks Chinese.

Bao Qiang said in surprise beside him: "Are you a Chinese?"

"It used to be, now I have settled down here, because it will be more beneficial for my promotion in the Storm."

Zhang Xu did not shy away from this issue and said with a smile: "Please please, everyone, remember to hang the work sign, and don't take photos, otherwise you may be invited out by the security guard later, and if it is serious, you will be prosecuted."

Wei Xun shook his head secretly from the side.

China's film technology itself is backward, and the most cutting-edge talents cultivated have been lost. How can it develop?

But these are personal choices, and Wei Xun is not qualified to make a judgment.

Following Zhang Xu, Wei Xun and the other two walked into the Storm Headquarters Building, and then took the elevator to the 27th floor.

"Hey, idiot, the fire parameters of that plane exploded were wrong."

"I hope this ghost lion can see the wind blowing his fluff when he jumps up."

"Open the explosion again, guys, cheer up. Smith Mayer, that harsh old guy, who was a little dissatisfied with, wouldn't pay us the final payment!"

The entire 27th floor is a spacious office area that has been opened, with dozens of special effects technical employees busy in front of their respective computers.

On the outside of the office area is a very typical American glass curtain, and the large office area has a lot of light.

On the physical wall on the innermost side of the office area, a huge high-definition screen hangs.

A white supervisor stood in front of the screen and probably noticed Wei Xun and his group. He smiled and joked with the technicians in the office area: "Look, look, guys, there are guests here, it seems that they are gentlemen from the East. Whether the face of the storm can continue to be preserved depends on my next click. If it fails again, you all have to eat the saliva of Smith-Meyer later."

There was a burst of laughter in the large office area.

Some people turned around curiously and looked at Wei Xun and others.

Zhang Xu, who was standing next to Wei Xun, explained: "This is a special effect for the Golden Lion's new movie "Escape from the Earth". We have been busy for three months and adjusted the parameters countless times. Now is the final stage. Smith Mayer will come to inspect it in person in the afternoon."

Wei Xun nodded and signaled that he had understood.

In the distance, the white man standing in front of the screen subjectively pressed the control button in his hand.

Everyone in the office looked up at the big screen, including Wei Xun and others, and subconsciously held their breath and looked over together.

I saw the originally dark screen lit up.

In the vast universe, a small fireball passed through space, and then the picture opened.

Among the twinkling stars in the sky, thousands of fireballs are running wildly in the universe. The veins of those fireballs, the fire light emitted, and the distortion caused by the high surface temperature can be observed in high-definition pictures, which is truly amazing.

At the forefront of the field of vision is a water-blue planet.

Humans have no idea about changes outside of space, but keen animals have already discovered something strange.

A lion jumped up from the grassland in shock and ran wildly, and looked up at the sky.

Then, countless huge fireballs passed through the atmosphere and fell from the sky, and the entire earth suddenly fell into a disaster.

The planes sailing in the sky were affected and exploded directly.

Countless skyscrapers collapsed, mountains, forests and grasslands were destroyed, and all the mountains, rivers, plants and trees were destroyed.

This kind of indifference and reality that comes to the face makes people feel extremely shocking.

Even Wei Xun narrowed his eyes.

Bao Qiang, Xiao Xiaoyang and others next to them were silent and silent.

However, after participating in this learning activity, Kang Cheng, who was slightly silent, turned around and looked at Zhang Xu, and asked in a difficult voice: "The lion just now..."

"Yes, it's also made of special effects."

Zhang Xu said proudly: "That is my work. When it jumps up, even the hair blown by the wind is carefully designed, which can be compared to the lion in reality."

Kang Cheng was obviously shocked.

He opened his mouth and wanted to say something else, but he couldn't say a word.
