At present, the top special effects companies are industrial light and magic, digital field and vita digital, which are the gold lettered signboards made by the three top directors in Hollywood with excellent works.

In addition to the three major companies, there is Sonny image processing of Sonny group, which has everything,

He won many special effects technology awards for "little elf mouse" and "Spider Man", and won the special effects production right of "superman returns" from ESC company, the special effects production team of "matrix". And the Chubb Chubb, a 3D cartoon that can compete with Pixar, won the Oscar for best animated short film, but because of the relationship between mm group and Sonny group, they won't do the special effects in spider man 3, let alone iron man.

What they can do, industrial light and magic can do. Why should they do it? Let alone their price is more expensive than that of industrial light and magic.

The core technologies of industrial light and magic are CGI animation technology, model shooting and all digital high-definition photography technology, while the core technology in the digital field is the digital synthesis software nuke, which can arbitrarily combine and scan pictures to produce static or dynamic effects. Its light particle scanning is also unique. The overall level of industrial light and magic is a hidden advantage, but the advantage in the field of leading words is low price.

In addition, David was ordered to seduce DreamWorks. In DreamWorks, Mai copy was the most familiar one. They cooperated in top secret flight. The special effects of top secret flight were made by D2, and Mai copy was D2's shareholder. D2's business has been bad since the king of the world left. As a major shareholder, Mai copy naturally wanted to win business for the company. Iron man is a big fat meat, Of course, Michael was eyeing it. Instead, he asked David to talk about it and wanted to win this big fat meat.

The bosses of the three special effects companies founded the special effects company for the same reason. They think that the special effects company on the market can't do what they want, so they set up one by themselves and toss as much as they want, so as to produce the perfect picture in their mind.

D2 has an important influence in Hollywood and even the whole international film world. The company was founded by Scott Ross, a former manager of industrial light and magic. In 1993, the great director James Cameron took a stake. Later, he introduced his friend Stan Weston (the behind the scenes special effects expert of the famous film special effects masters Jurassic Park, alien and terminator), "Titanic" and "dream come true" let them win two Oscars for best special effects. D2's sign is famous all over the world.

Later, due to Cameron's strong bad temper and star aura, Scott Ross, the founder of D2, was in an embarrassing situation. At the same time, because Cameron had a strong interest in documentaries after the production of Titanic, he simply disappeared from commercial films and focused on making documentaries without D2 (it is also said that Cameron cashed out for divorce, and it is also said that Cameron had a fierce conflict with shareholders because of the listing). Cameron's friend Stan Weston also abandoned D2 to establish his own special effects company because of his departure.

With the departure of the two pillars, D2 was exhausted and went downhill all the time. Ross decided to pull another big director into the partnership and start D2's signboard again.

He is interested in the famous copy of Mai in the circle, which is from brave invasion of lethal Island, Jedi robbery, Jedi Warmen 2 and Pearl Harbor Since then, he has been crazy. He also thinks he has the temperament of a big director. The special effects companies on the market can't do what they want. This is a divine rhythm like Lucas, Cameron and Jackson, so he is ready to take a stake.

However, after joining the company, I found that it was a pit. I had heard that special effects burned money before. Now I know why I burned so much money. Investing that money is like investing in the pit. My old capital for many years is exhausted at once. In the name of a major shareholder of the special effects company, I not only didn't get the transcendent status in my imagination, but asked people to do business everywhere. There is also a generation of big directors with a high and transcendent status?

This is "escape from clone island" It's a giant puff, which makes Mai copy's momentum much worse than before. The name of box office poison doesn't go straight. However, the big puff of a film is blamed on one person, and it's unscientific. Mai copy is best at commercial popcorn films. It gives a perfect answer in terms of shooting and production. If it's unqualified, why didn't anyone question earlier and ask for re cutting and re shooting, but invest tens of millions more for publicity Run it?

Of course, he has no responsibility, nor can he. The tens of millions of film pay and share are not easy to take. He has the right and naturally has the responsibility. Unfortunately, he has jumped twice in a row and is facing the dilemma of striking out three, so he is more careful.

Mai copy has a good personal relationship with David. This is the friendship he made during the production of top secret flight. David is full of praise for Mai copy's works. His best is popcorn commercial blockbusters. Some of Mai copy's works are to his appetite, and David is the first to comfort him: "This is not your bad taste, but the audience is too rubbish!"

In fact, Mai copy also thinks so, but listen to this. Even if he doesn't have the powerful backstage of David, this boy is like two attacks in a row, but he has plenty of money. He has changed and become the major shareholder and vice president of MM group. He looks like Hu Hansan killed him again.

If the dream factory is a sunset, and MM is at the peak of the sun and hot, this hairy big thick leg also wants to hold.

Mark's iron man is a special effect blockbuster. Even iron man's war clothes mark 1, Mark 2 and mark 3 are made of special effects. There are many special effect lenses in the film, and the cost of special effects is nearly 50 million. One can't eat it. The original version was made by several companies, which were eaten by industrial light and magic and vita digital, Then the scraps were handed over to six other small companies, and now it's all right to pack some to D2.

David's face needs to be given. This guy's investment in making movies is disastrous, but it's natural to ask him to lobby Joe's boss. The goods tumbled in Joe's boss's house for a few days. Joe's boss joined mm group on Pixar. Pingguo accepted MM's capital injection of one billion and submitted it to the board of directors for discussion. It's only profit seeking board of directors that promised these favorable conditions sooner or later.

But when he cleaned up Naifei, he was very beautiful. Mark thought it was a long war. Huntings would fight against Japan for a long time. For a long time, the online CD rental business was a pattern of the top three competing for hegemony. Who knows, under David's layout, this guy knelt in a week. Mark can be sure that there are experts around David. Starting with Naifei, mark can't think of it, He thought that the two sides were fighting to the death. It was fun to fight. Mm took some small advantages in the fight between the top two and ate leftovers.

In 2008, Naifei defeated blockbuster, an industry giant with 9000 chain stores and 60000 employees, and abused him for three years, resulting in its bankruptcy, while he transformed into an industry giant feared by most of the six. No one can imagine that even Edgar, who has always been thoughtful, thinks that mark organized a group to clean up Naifei. First, it is because of hatred, The second is to find a bulk channel for MM's huge film library.

Blockbuster's first store opened at the corner of Kilman and northwest highway in Dallas, Texas in October 1985. The company was founded by David Cook. The company's innovative technology comes from David Cook's experience in managing large databases. After that, several other branches of the company opened. Cook established a $6 million warehouse in garland, Texas. In early 1986, blockbuster acquired more than 200 stores under Errol, a competitor in the middle of the Atlantic coast. By 1989, Blockbuster has more than 1000 stores outside the United States. In 1992, it became an undisputed leader in video leasing with more than 2800 stores all over the world. In 1994, Viacom bought blockbuster for us $8.4 billion and went public in 1999. Blockbuster operated more than 9000 stores at the peak of its development in the early 21st century.

The real industry leader occupies a monopoly position in DVD rental and sales.

Blockbuster, which occupies a monopoly position, began to die. They levied a late fee on overdue users. For a DVD disc of about $10 or $20 (Collector's Edition), it can actually levy a late fee of $20 to $40. (if you don't pay it, you will be blackmailed and can't rent or buy CDs in 9000 stores across the country.) hensyans was fined $40, Find business opportunities from it, determine that blockbuster will attack, and give birth to the heart that I will replace it.

At the beginning of the dispute between Naifei and blockbuster, Naifei won the upper hand with this one. Brother doesn't charge overdue fees. You can rent it as long as you want. Anyway, you can rent four discs at one time at 19.99 dollars a month (no need for 20 yuan, including mail, and reach the next day). They can rent it again after returning it, and the way they let users send it back is also very considerate, There is a mail free envelope with an address filled in the package of the CD. Users can complete the return process as long as they put the returned CD into the envelope and throw it into the mailbox or post office. Isn't this great and more convenient than going to the store by themselves.

In contrast, blockbuster's overdue fee has become a fatal injury. The overdue fee alone can open an account in Naifei and play for a month. Why don't they cancel it? Because the overdue fee accounts for 16% of their total income, the shareholders will never agree. Yes, this is a company that makes a profit by fines. They have been doing this all the time. When they meet Naifei, a new product after scientific and technological innovation, it is naturally over.

Mark acquired Naifei. Except for the departure of Founder huntings, all the others stayed. He formed a new management team and continued to use Naifei's management and operation mode. Mm has the advantage that Naifei didn't have earlier. In the past, Naifei had only channels and no content, but now mm can add content and channel. After Naifei's market value of more than 70 billion, What you dare to do.

So David successfully cleaned up Naifei and incorporated it into his company, which is equivalent to finding a way to make a lot of money for the company. Mark treats David differently.
