After arranging the task of "Saw", Wan Xiaohu began to worry about the second thing.

Looking for talent.

Dandelion cannot spend too much money, and the future income will increase, which is enough to support the expansion. Wan Xiaohu came to the United States this time to find professional special effects personnel in Hollywood to form a special effects company. It is now 2003, and the development of special effects technology has made rapid progress. If he does not keep up with this trend, he will be out of date.

Find a group of CG animation special effects talents, and then set up a special effects company in Hollywood to serve the Chinese special effects industry. Then find a group of animation talents to make up for the shortcomings of Abao Animation Studio. At the same time, find a group of software talents who study online videos.

In my memory, 2004 was the year when online videos rose, and online videos would be a new way of release of movies in the future. Wan Xiaohu had long had ideas.

As the saying goes, money can make the devil push the mill, and a lot of US dollars will be spent. In just one week, James Derek completed all the procedures, and three new companies were affiliated with the Tiger Ruiya International Investment Company, the Dragon Daxia Digital Painting Company, the Abao Animation North American Research Center, and YouTube.

Shenlong Painting and Abao Research is located in Hollywood, California, and YouTube is located in San Francisco Bay, California.

The reason why the company was set up in the United States is entirely because the mainland of China is not very attractive to talents. Whether it is special effects talents or animation talents, they are unwilling to work in China. Moreover, California is a place where talents gather, and Hollywood has the most elite group of film talents. There are a large number of high-tech elites in Silicon Valley in San Francisco Bay.

Shenlong Painting and Abao Research are both shells, slowly recruiting talents. They develop slowly, and they cannot be rushed.

Wan Xiaohu mainly made two requirements for the development of YouTube. The first is to study online streaming videos, allowing users to download, watch and share videos or short videos. They will make two versions, one is to focus on YouTube videos in Europe and the United States, and the other is to focus on domestic Youku videos.

The second requirement is to study the voice chat software YY Voice. The domestic instant messaging software QQ is developing very strongly. It has exceeded 100 million users, and the United States is dominated by MSN. However, these software are all single-to-one chat software, which is very backward. Even if Wan Xiaohu doesn't want to work too much, he cannot give up the future benefits of instant messaging.

Now the domestic network penetration rate has developed very well, and the computer hardware has been greatly improved, and the Internet speed has also been accelerated not long ago this year. The foundation of voice software is sufficient. He wants to develop a voice software that can be used for online group chat, which is the future YY voice, to seize the QQ market.

When YY was dominating China in 2005, she could break through and occupy one-third of the instant messaging industry. It is conceivable that after the sales are released, it will inevitably be stronger. Wan Xiaohu has already planned to cooperate with the most popular "Legend of Hot Blood" and rely on games to seize the market first.

Then, the YY Voice audition are launched for "Super Girl", and then joined forces with Youku Video, YouTube Video, Mtime Time Network, Qidian Novel Network, and Shanda Network to promote YY Voice to the world.

With the popularity of the Internet, traditional media business will gradually shift to online media. Whoever seizes the Internet will be the winner in the future.

Of course, Wan Xiaohu now has no longer had the original obstacles and is devoted to building an entertainment empire. Now he has just involved a little, opened up these layouts, and then handed over to others to do it. Whether he can achieve success depends on God's will. He will not spend too much energy to care about this and that.

It’s better to pick up girls if you have time.

More than a week passed and everything he should do was arranged, Wan Xiaohu was determined to return to Venucia. In the past week, he had already visited most attractions in Hollywood and Los Angeles, and had no new feelings about the passionate life of the United States.

However, something went wrong when I left.

"Saw" contacted three famous Hollywood horror film directors, but the other party refused. It was not that they were dissatisfied with the script, but that Wan Xiaohu was only willing to provide $2 million in investment.

Because Sasha Entertainment is a little-known company, and even hasn't even made a movie before, the script was written by a Chinese, and the risk of failure of the movie is too high, and they offer a relatively high price, all of which are paid millions.

"Millions of pay? TM, I spent so much money in vain, it's better to go up and fool myself!" Wan Xiaohu naturally shook his head at this.

It’s not that he can’t afford this money, but it’s inevitable that this movie will make a big profit, not that little director fee. But why did he spend this money in vain? The original version of "Saw" only had a total investment of $1.2 million, including publicity. He is now investing $2 million directly, which is already generous enough.

"Boss, what should I decide? Otherwise, if I invite several directors who have just debuted, their pay is very low, and they may be able to shoot them if they don't have money," asked Andrew Brown.

Wan Xiaohu shook his head: "I want a famous director just to use a little fame. New directors, why do I spend money to train new people?" Wan Xiaohu is willing to train mainland directors. If it were the original director James Wen, he would also like to, but it would not be worth it to spend money to promote foreigners.

The problem is that now he doesn't know where James Win can get away with it.

"What should I do?" Andrew frowned.

Wan Xiaohu touched his chin, a little hesitant.

He is a director himself and can shoot, but he feels that his ability is not enough to gain a foothold in Hollywood, so he never thought of coming to Hollywood to develop so early. Moreover, he lacks confidence in creating a horror movie atmosphere, and is afraid that he will not be able to shoot the essence of the original version.

However, after hesitating for a while, Wan Xiaohu clenched his fists suddenly.

Dry!

He is a man who is determined to be an international director. Are he still afraid of this small challenge?

So what if he arranges "Saw" into a bad movie? Can't he afford this loss?

Now, Wan Xiaohu is also the number one figure in the director industry in Asia. When "Butterfly Effect" was filmed, he came to North America to make money. This time, he was so frustrated again.

"Andrew, I'll shoot the movie myself! Go and help me contact the Hollywood agent and prepare the crew! Then contact Lionsgate Films, I hope to cooperate with them to release this movie!"

After giving instructions, Wan Xiaohu breathed a long sigh.

Do it, do it big!

Hollywood is nothing.

I will make "Saw" a stepping stone to gain a foothold in North America. Sooner or later, I will enter Hollywood and let the Americans know my name as Wan Xiaohu. When I come tomorrow, I will conquer!

"No movies I, Wan Xiaohu, dare not make!"

After thinking through my thoughts, I suddenly felt infinite passion.

"Saw" is a horror film with small costs and small scenes, and is most suitable for beginners to practice. Wan Xiaohu is a little worried that he has never tried horror themes and cannot shoot the original horror essence. After all, the Chinese director James Wen, who is best at making horror films, has talent in this area.

There is no more worry than that.

He has a clear position on himself. He is good at portraying scenes in the great era and is consciously suitable for shooting science fiction and magical movie themes. His directorial style is not his style.

But if a person does not withstand challenges, how can he know that he cannot do it?

He also suspected himself in his previous life. He thought he could not make a movie, but after being reborn, he would be successful. The position of director does not mean that you can easily make good movies with an original movie reference. The director needs to coordinate the entire crew to make every link perfect.

Rebirth of Memory. It only turns a silent script into an audio and picture-free script, reducing the difficulty. When shooting, you also need to rely on your own abilities!

So what if you haven't made a horror movie?

If Chinese people do not have physiological education classes, can’t they have children?

Wan Xiaohu is now full of confidence and believes that he can take good photos!

After making a decision, it started to be executed soon.

However, the executives of the company who came with him were stunned: "Director Wan, do you want to stay in Hollywood to make a movie? What should I do if "The Wind" is? The investment in "The Wind" is much larger than "Saw".

"The sound of the wind continues to film!"

"How do you shoot this?"

Wan Xiaohu just made a decision and was full of enthusiasm: "The Sound of Wind" is a big investment and a project I attach great importance to. Naturally, I will not give up. However, I will temporarily stop the crew of "The Sound of Wind" and take a month to shoot "Saw"!"

"One month?"

"It's just one month!"

...

He did it as soon as he said that, Wan Xiaohu was like a madman, and he modified the script in three days and drew out the storyboard script. Then he set up the set and looked for the actors, turning like a gyro.

When the news came back to China, everyone who knew it was stunned.

"Tiger, are you crazy? Why did you suddenly run to Hollywood to make a movie?" Su Ya learned the news and made a long-distance call from home.

"A man is not crazy and devilish, haha."

"You are still laughing. Do you know that the crew of "The Sound of the Wind" is in chaos now? I heard from Liu Yang that the crew is wasting 50,000 or 60,000 yuan a day. After all, the props are rented on schedule. You said you, you used to be able to make a penny of "Waiting Alone" and want to make two tricks, but now you are so generous."

"I have money, it's not that bad."

Su Ya still couldn't figure it out: "Can't you finish filming "The Wind" and then filming "Saw"?"

"There's no way, I'll make the decision when my mind is hot. It's rare to come to Hollywood. You have to keep some souvenirs before going back. Su Ya, just think I'm stupid. People have time to be stupid. Don't worry, I can do it in one month and will not delay too much time in "The Wind"."

"I can't tell you anyway. You don't listen to others' greetings. Forget it, you can make a movie with peace of mind. You're just a guy who doesn't act according to common sense."

"Haha, this is called personality."

"Tsk, stop gilding on your face."

After hanging up the phone, Su Ya's angry and helpless expression seemed to appear in Wan Xiaohu's mind. He shook his head and Wan Xiaohu continued to focus on the crew's preparations.

If he didn't film "The Sound of the Wind", he started filming "Saw" and thought with his toes, and knew that others would regard him as a lunatic.

But Wan Xiaohu wanted to be crazy once.

It's so boring to do everything step by step.

When you think of it, go and do it!

Maybe this is what Wan Xiaohu is pursuing now.

It is better to hang yourself on the southeast branch if you don’t like it in life!

Are you alive, be at your own heart.
Chapter completed!
