Chapter 65 - Thank you.

Last time at the charity meeting, through the introduction of her mother, Laila and Director James Cameron had a pleasant conversation. Even in the face of her mother, she believe her request should not be rejected.

Turning on the phone, she found Cameron's number and dialed it.

Things went as smoothly as she thought. The director with the "set tyrant" not only kindly handed her the telephone number of the director of the special effects company but also made an appointment to take her to the company in person.

This makes Laila very happy. It is significant for her to see one of the four major Hollywood special effects companies in the digital field. Working with a real special effects company for the first time is a rare experience for the special effects blockbuster she plans to make in the future.

The appointment with Director Cameron was two days later, and he happened to be going there too, so he could accompany her to visit and introduce the company.

At 3 p.m. that day, Laila arrived at the agreed place five minutes early. Before getting out of the car, he heard Cameron's roar coming in from outside.

"Not enough! I still need at least 20 million. I don't want the director's pay. Anyway, you must give me another 20 million! Yes! Just before tomorrow! I didn't make a joke with you!… Next Months? The next month will not get better, so don't think about it. If you can't spend another 20 million, you won't be able to make movies next year! Do you think movies are so easy to make?… What? I spend too much money? Does someone want to replace me? You can try it! Which director can take over my job! Or do you plan to give up this movie? Don't forget. It's more than 100 million Dollars!… What? Two hundred million? Hasn't it arrived yet?"

Cameron's words made Laila chuckled in the car. In her previous life, she had heard that the Titanic had a lot of trouble during the production process, but she did not expect to see it with her own eyes.

She pushed the car door and walked out, just in time to see Cameron hang up angrily.

Seeing her here, the great director sighed a little tiredly: "People all over the world think that director is a glorious profession. Who can see the hard work of those of us behind?"

Laila remembered the hard work in making the movie and nodded with a sense of feeling: "Is there any trouble with the movie?"

"Forget it, don't mention it. It's mad to mention it." Cameron plucked his hair with his hand to calm the anger in his heart: "Let's go. I'll take you to see the company."

The 'Digital Domain' was founded in 1993 and has helped many famous classic movies to produce special effects pictures. For example, the Titanic, The Fifth Element, Interview with Vampires, and later Pirates of the Caribbean, Transformers, 2012 and Avatar, etc., which have not yet been released at this time.

There is no doubt about their strength. Otherwise, they would not develop into one of the world's four largest special effects companies.

And if you can shoot the Titanic so wonderfully, you don't have to worry about failing to achieve the effect Laila wants because you don't master the advanced technology.

"Final Destination" is a movie produced in 2000. The shooting methods and special effects at that time would be much more mature and advanced than now. Laila didn't want to make this film that should have left a classic impression in film history become a bad joke just because she made the movie a few years in advance.

During the company's visit, Cameron was only with her before he was called to work. Before he left, he specially called a staff member to replace him and take Laila around and discuss new work.

The movie's special effects are not carried out after all the shots are completed but start during or even before shooting. It seems that in just a few seconds, it may take many days to produce, which also determines that the production cycle will be very long.

Generally speaking, in filming a movie, the special effects company will produce relevant special effects pictures according to the director's needs.

The one who accompanied Laila was Dewey Cook, the director of a special effects team. Accompanied by him, she visited and appreciated the production procedures and effects of the Titanic screen.

Although she had seen many more gorgeous special effects pictures in her previous life, she was still shocked by the shot of the ship broken in two. This is the power of classics. Even if time goes by, the charm of classic movies will not be washed away.

After strolling around, in the resting place, Laila told Dewey her request after giving out the script and storyboard: "I believe the shots of the plane exploding in mid-air and other areas shouldn't be difficult for you. "

Dewey smiled and nodded after reading the script: "Yes, I think we will make the picture you need, but there may be a delay in time. As you can see, we are mainly doing the last fragments of Titanic. If there are sufficient funds, it may be completed before July. If there are no funds, we may delay it until the end of the year."

"No problem." Laila knew that the final release date of the Titanic in the previous life was this year, so she was more confident than the opposite and knew that the funding director Cameron would get it. "My film will not start shooting until next month. The filming cycle is temporarily set at two months, and the expected release time is next year. You have plenty of time to make it."

"Then it's okay." Dewey stood up and shook hands with her and smiled: "I think we will work together very happily, Director Moran."

"Happy cooperation, Mr. Cook." Laila smiled back.

Rejecting the invitation to dinner, the evening glow when she came out of the 'Digital domain' had already dyed half of the sky red.

She was also delighted to be able to talk so smoothly. She was about to call the company to ask about Louise when she suddenly received an unexpected call.

"Hello, Elena."

"You, hello, Miss Laila." The voice on the other side of the phone was a little faint, obviously caused by extreme tension.

Laila smiled: "Is the work going well?"

"Yes, thanks to you." Elena took a deep breath and pressed her hand on her heart as if it could press down her pounding heart. "I want to thank you."

"Is there anything to thank me?" Laila chuckled.

"When, of course! If it weren't for you, I would not be eligible to be selected as a model for the brochure. Because of your photos, I now get many jobs that I didn't even dare to think about before. It's just that I haven't dared to say thanks to you personally. , Has been dragged to this day."

Laila hooked her lips: "You don't need to thank me. Success has a lot to do with yourself. I choose you because you have a very charming and brilliant smile, and you can wear Moran clothes because they suit your body. If you want to thank me, my mother should also say thank you. With those pictures of you, she will be so successful, right?"
