Chapter thirty-five special effects
"Wow, you are a Taoist priest. I really didn't expect that using special effects scenes to promote it is really an idea." The person in charge of the studio smiled. This guy was slowly a technical mate. He smiled and said, "Actually, you can use a projector to make this special effects CG and then directly project it onto the thick smoke. That's what it means to be like real and illusion."
When Wen Fei heard this, he was so happy that he started chatting with the person in charge. Then five or six people in the studio gathered around him. These were all technical mates with pain and rich imagination. He gave Wen Fei a lot of ideas on how to express the effect of the coming of a god. Wen Fei was overjoyed and thought to himself that these people were all talents!
Wen Fei looked back at the studio in the basement, looked around and saw that there were only a dozen messy computers, and a lot of instruments that Wen Fei couldn't understand, and there was nothing left.
Seeing that these people were all pale and looked malnourished, and boxes of instant noodles were everywhere on the ground, I knew it in my heart that these people were not doing well.
Gone are the days when miracles born in the garage like Apple. What's more, those who do CG are more labor-intensive than technology-intensive. It's not that a few people can do it.
The high-pixel special effects images are completely artificially stacked. A technician can only produce a few seconds of animations in a month. It costs hundreds of millions of dollars to produce an animation abroad. Although Wen Fei is rich now, he has really found Industrial Light and Magic. With his wealth, it is still far from enough to spend money on such money-burning things!
Wen Fei planned to recruit these people so that he could add them to his own film company. He probably would have many opportunities to use these people in the future.
"Mr. Wen, the pictures you need are easy to make. There will be no too complicated movements. They are mainly gorgeous sound and light effects. These are easy to do. The difficulty is that those dynamic animations are very troublesome and require..."
Wen Fei didn't understand these technical issues and didn't care. He said bluntly: "I think your studio is not doing well now. How about it? Are you interested in doing it for me?"
It is indeed as Wen Fei observed that this studio was not doing well. Some like-minded friends got together and started this studio. They could only take on some advertising and other work, and it was indeed at the point where they could not get rid of the blame. Therefore, as soon as Wen Fei spoke, they hesitated.
Wen Fei said: "At worst, I will buy your studio. How much is it worth?"
After spending millions to get the studio, Wen Fei ran to the Northern Song Dynasty again without stopping. He commanded the people and found an open space in the suburbs of Luoyang City, and then began to arrange various lighting and sound. Wen Fei felt that he was very sad. If he did this, he would probably die of overwork sooner or later.
The fairy master Wenfei's Dharma Assembly was repeatedly postponed and he would be scolded. Blizzard's company would be scolded if he would be suspended like this, but the fairy master Wenfei would be brave enough to curse him. He would not be afraid of a thunder that would fall down and kill people.
However, this also has an advantage. The longer the time goes on, the further the news spreads. Not only Luoyang City, but also other places, and even Tokyo Bianliang City, many people heard the news and came to attend the Dharma Assembly.
The atmosphere of the Northern Song Dynasty was that the whole country believed in Taoism, whether it was a noble or a commoner. Even the literati and officials who spoke of the secrets and evil spirits in the Ming and Qing dynasties had many believe in Taoism during the Northern Song Dynasty, and many famous literati and officials participated in the ceremony held by Taoist priests. This is recorded in history.
Although Luoyang City was no longer as lively as the Shenzong, Luoyang City was simply the base camp of the old party. I don’t know how many old party veterans who stepped down were waiting for the time being in Luoyang City. However, since the new party, Cong Dun came to power, he was not so polite, and drove the old party veterans who stepped down to the barbarian places in Guangzhou Prefecture, Hainan to eat lychees.
However, the dignitaries and nobles living in Luoyang City are second only to Tokyo City. I don’t know how many dignitaries and nobles have to listen to Wen Fei’s preaching. Originally, these people had the privileges and could occupy the best position, the closest to Wen Fei.
But Wen Fei didn't do it and didn't talk about the feelings at all. The best position was only for the most devout believers. The so-called most devout believers were naturally those who ranked in the seats many days in advance.
It’s not Wen Fei’s hatred of wealth and honor, but Wen Fei thinks that Taoism is inherently inadequate. Other world-wide religions have risen from the people and have extremely reliable lower foundations. Therefore, they can withstand wind and rain. If you attack and prohibit them, they will be burned by wildfires and will be reborn again after the spring breeze. And the more they develop, the more prosperous it will be.
However, Taoism has always followed the upper-level route from the beginning. This is true, but it does not have a lower-level foundation, and few people have truly gone deep into the folk mission. It can be said that Taoism has continued to survive until modern times, which is entirely due to cultural and folk customs, and has nothing to do with their own efforts. Even if it is said that if only people break up, no one will preach.
That is why Wen Feicai, you all attach importance to these devout believers from the lower class. The high-ranking officials and nobles of the upper class can serve as guardians and use their power and financial resources to protect the sects. But they must be rooted in the people so that they can have vitality.
With this idea, Wen Fei didn't care about their identities. If he wanted to listen to the sermons, he could grab his own position.
By the day when Wen Fei made the special effects, arranged the venue, and prepared to start the preaching, tens of thousands of people had gathered in the entire venue. This kind of scene was like a concert by celebrities.
The only difference is that the concert needs to be lively, and when holding this Dharma Assembly, what is needed is sacred and solemn. At this point, neither Taoist music nor Buddhist music can bring this feeling.
Therefore, the Dharma Assembly has not yet begun. In the speakers arranged everywhere, pure Western music plays, such as Beethoven's solemn Mass, or those songs that come from modern composers who score movies are like conquering heaven. This makes Wen Fei feel like eating a fly, and he always wants to find some masters to create some sacred music with Taoism in the future.
Although the art forms of expression are different, the instruments used are different. However, the appeal is the same, especially Wen Fei rents high-end audio at the concert-level for a large price.
Thank you very much for your support, and for your brothers who are so cruel to vote for updates. I really don’t have so much more... When I’m not busy, I’ll find a way to take more time to update...
