James Cameron is sitting on the sofa.

Not so, because the big boss he wants to meet today is the richest man in the world. . For more latest chapters visit: ШЩЩ.⑦⑨.сОМ.
When Ralph told him that the boss wanted to see him, he was stunned. He never thought that a big boss like Feng Yu would take the initiative to see him.
Of course, he was also very happy in his heart. It was the first time he saw the richest man in the world.
When he saw a young man in casual clothes walking in, and Ralph, the CEO of Wind and Rain Holding Group, followed behind, he knew that this person must be the legendary richest man.
"Hello, Mr. Feng, I'm James Cameron." Cameron quickly stood up and stretched out his hands.
Feng Yu simply struck up a deal with Cameron and sat on the sofa: "Sit down, don't be too nervous."
Cameron said in his heart, can you not be nervous? Before I came in, your four bodyguards searched me all over, and they almost stripped me for examination.
"James, I really like your Titanic, the Terminator series, true lies, etc., so I heard that the movie you've always wanted to make has no investment, so I asked Ralph to send someone to contact you. "Feng Yu raised Erlang's legs and leaned on the sofa.
"Thank you Mr. Feng for your appreciation. I am a director, and it is my honor to make others like my movies." Cameron said this with an unconcealed 'color' on his face.
"It's just that you also have a title, a director who burns money, that is, one of your films will bring down a company. When the Titanic, it has been proved, which also leads to your new film, no one dares to invest. Payback cycle Too long, too much investment, too many variables.”
"But I have confidence in you, or I'm very optimistic about movies like 3D and imax, which will give the audience a more perfect visual experience. Our company has acquired the amc cinema chain, plus the original MGM cinema chain, we have the most 3d screen and imax screen."
"And we are renovating the theater to increase the number of 3D and imax screens. In the future, our movies should be based on the movie viewing experience. We just learned that the "Avatar" you want to do, or this series of movies, is in this way."
As soon as it came to Avatar, Cameron began to talk about the selling point of the movie. He wanted to prove to Feng Yu that the movie would definitely make money and would never go to waste.
Feng Yu waved his hand: "You don't need to say much about the plot, I understand what you mean. But you said you have to take into account many aspects such as politics, culture, environmental protection, religion, race, etc. Don't you think it's too much? I know you want to pass this. Satire about human arrogance, greed, ignorance, but don't forget that love is one of the eternal themes in the film."
"We have love, or love across races." Cameron emphasized.
"No, there is a problem here. The story you just told me is obviously the incarnation of this human being, who fell in love with the 'female' 'sex' of the Avatar clan, but in addition to thinking, they are in terms of appearance, etc., It is clearly a race. The biggest opposition here should be the contrast and interaction between the body and the incarnation."
"The real body of the male protagonist is very empty in the movie, and he doesn't do anything. Compared with the relationship between Jack and Rose, it is too different. Besides, there is very little interaction between people in front of you. There will be a big scene later, which is cool and very shocking, but it is difficult to resonate emotionally, because you set a happy ending."
"I'm not saying this kind of ending is bad, just how to shoot a sequel? Isn't it your dream to make this shoot into a series?"
Cameron was ecstatic: "Mr. Feng is willing to invest in a series for me, that's even better. Of course I want to shoot him into a series, a series that will go down in the annals of film history! Of course, the ending can be slightly changed,
I'm going to write the script for the second part so I know how to connect with the first one. If Mr. Feng is a director, he must be one of the most successful directors. "
Feng Yu enjoyed Cameron's flattery, but he actually knew very well that he knew nothing about directors.
"As long as you understand, I'm very optimistic about you. Whether it's this "Avatar" or the Terminator series, there are extremely high requirements for film technology. Many companies can't do this, but industrial polishing companies can Completion. Wind and Rain Holding Group is working with Industrial Polishing Company and intends to invest several hundred million dollars to acquire a controlling stake in Industrial Polishing.”
"Also, Weta Digital, which produced the "Lord of the Rings" series, we are also considering a stake. Peter Jackson is also one of the directors I admire very much, and we are also approaching him, intending to sign him to shoot the magic series. epic."
Feng Yu said it nicely, but in fact he didn't even care about the so-called magical epic masterpiece. What is an epic? Should be historical poetry. They have a "Mao" relationship with history? Lord of the Rings is history? Or are The Hobbits history?
It should be said that they created a new history, a fictional mythological history, just like the Marvel universe created by Marvel.
However, the epic that people generally recognize now is the type of medieval knight war. It seems that with the development of science and technology and the development of society, people are more and more eager to see the stories of the ancient times.
The so-called magic series is nothing more than the realization of those scenes that people dream of, what magic, dragons and the like. To say that in the past fifty years, too many technologies now are considered as unrealizable black technologies. Even in the past ten years, there are many technologies that many people can't imagine.
Let’s just say smartphones, if they appeared ten years ago, it would be a black technology. Well, it's still that kind of useless black technology, because without the cooperation of other technologies, it can't really be used at all.
When the material life is satisfied, people begin to pursue the "spiritual" spiritual life. Just like the ancient emperors, no matter what country they were in, they all pursued longevity. The same is true of people now. Various science and technologies that prolong people's lives have been researched, and medicine can also be regarded as one of these categories.
And people's minds are actually very active, which can also be understood as a big "hole" in the brain. The various hero comics in the past are to satisfy this part of people's psychology.
Now, comics are not enough, people are looking forward to scenes that can appear in front of them, such as movies.
Therefore, in the future, the proportion of movies in culture will become larger and larger, and the enjoyment brought by movies is the most intuitive.
"Mr. Feng, with the support of these two companies, after we cooperate with other companies, we will soon complete the shooting task. I think this film may be released in advance."
"It's okay, work slowly and work hard, I believe you won't let me down."
Looking at Cameron who went out dizzy, Feng Yu felt a sense of accomplishment.
