Chapter 478 Special effects companies and literary websites

Everyone looked at Angelababy, who was originally a little transparent. Angelababy said a little embarrassedly, "Well, I just talk about it casually. When it comes to special effects companies, I think of this first thing.

Qi Quantong slapped his thigh. For Ah, I almost forgot about Xiantao. This company is indeed amazing.

Qi Chu's impression of BaseFX is that it has participated in the special effects production of Chinese and foreign blockbusters such as "Painted Wall", "Four Famous Captains", and "Mission Impossible 4", but Qi Chu knows more about Xiantao Digital. The movies that were once popular back then, "Storm", "Chinese Heroes", "Shaolin Football" and "Kung Fu" are all from Xiantao Digital. Xiantao can be called the number one computer special effects in Hong Kong, but it seems that there is no action recently.

My father Qi Quantong popularized the Hong Kong special effects industry for Qi Chuke. Angelababy only knew a famous Xiantao. In fact, there are three of the best CG special effects companies in Hong Kong, Xiantao, Wan Kuan and Yima. As for the later Nicholas Tse Peak's PO Chaoting and Gu Tianle's world-class, they are all younger generations.

Yima specializes in cartoons. They made the animated film versions of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" and "Iron Arm Astro Boy". The former made a lot of North American box office, while the latter's failure led to Yima's bankruptcy and sold.

Wan Kuan's representative works include "The Changes of Movements", "The Great Sage of Love", "The Legend of Shushan", "Initial D", etc. Xiantao is most famous for "Storm" and the movies he later collaborated with Zhou Xingchi. Both companies are still alive now, but they are just operating miserably. Hong Kong movies are almost dead, and special effects companies trapped in Hong Kong naturally do not achieve great things. In a few years, the two companies will cooperate to make CG special effects for Bollywood's "Love of Bollywood Robots". When Chinese people sigh that the special effects of Indians' movies are already so clever, they don't know that this is simply made by Hong Kong special effects companies.

Even if there was no Qi Chu, Xiantao would have been sold to an Australian special effects company a few years later, which shows that Xiantao had the intention to be acquired. Moreover, the Chinese-style special effects produced by this company were not able to be produced by many foreign teams, including later when Xu Laoqian invited a Korean special effects company when filming Di Renjie. The things they produced were not Chinese at all. There are also "Painted Wall" and "Four Famous Captains" made by BaseFX, Chinese myths and martial arts, but they looked so Western-style magic.

Of course, this does not mean that BaseFX is not as good as Xiantao. At least before Qi Chu was reborn, there was no news about Xiantao Digital in China, and BaseFX became the leader in Chinese film special effects.

After listening to my dad talk about the three special effects giants in Hong Kong, Qi Chu and Qi Yàn Han Dao, Xiantao, Wan Kuan and BaseFX all came into contact with each other. We will buy which one is willing to sell. If they are willing, they will buy them all, and they are allowed to keep their names.

In fact, special effects companies are not expensive. What is expensive is how to maintain the update of technology and maintain the development speed of the world's special effects industry forever. Xiantao and other Hong Kong special effects companies were gone as they did it. One of the major reasons is that the market shrinks. The small Hong Kong cannot support the development and progress of these special effects companies. The result of lack of money to develop is that people are developing motion capture and 3D technology, and they are still playing with computer CG.

So buying a company may not cost much money, but if Qi Chu is determined to cultivate a Chinese Industrial Light and Magic, the subsequent investment will not be small.

Warring States Technology will have a lot of actions. It originally had only one Weibo, but now it has to set up a new company, acquire a new company, and Weibo also seeks to go public. All of this is to worry about Qi Yàn Han. She hired several assistants for herself, so she could barely get busy. As for the follow-up development of Shuangxiong Media, Qi Chu could only talk to her mother.

The development of Shuangxiong Media has been very successful this year because Qi Chu has always been very concerned. The core of this company is Shuangxiong Film and Television. The success of "Hearing" has allowed the company to gain a firm foothold in the film industry, and the several TV series and variety shows invested in have also benefited a lot. As for Shuangxiong music, Shuangxiong Fashion, and Shuangxiong advertisements, they have not lost money and are worth encouraging. The October Digital, which is currently producing "The Return of the Great Sage", is very fast. However, Qi Chu is abusive to them, and it doesn't matter how much money it costs. As long as the film is good, everything is easy to negotiate. I can't afford to buy a Hollywood animation studio, so Qi Chu had to build a national brand by himself.

In addition, Qi Chu wanted to separate movies and TV, and then add subsidiaries in the publishing industry for the company, and also expand the production capabilities of TV series to prepare for future video websites.

So my mother made the decision. The company acquired a small publishing company within a week and spent 15 million to rename it Shuangxia Culture Publishing. It has the ability to publish nationwide. In the future, the company's film and television dramas can turn into books and flow into the book market, adding new profit points.

With a book company, Qi Chu thought of acquiring Sou Shuba Station, which would make it convenient for online novels to publish physical books, and online novels contain too many IPs worth adapting.

Shanda Literature has just been established, and it only has three websites, Qidian, Jinjiang and Hongxiu. Tencent spent 5 billion to acquire Shanda Literature in the later generations. However, online literature was very popular at that time, Qidian was the well-deserved largest literary website. Moreover, Shanda Literature has more than a dozen subsidiaries, and now only three are only three. Online literature is still a loss-making industry. It is estimated that 500 million is enough to make Chen Tianqiao moved, because he was afraid that the former richest man would be too far-sighted. Now literary websites are a money-losing product, but they will be a hot commodity in a few years. If he understood this, he would probably not sell Shanda Literature easily.

But Qi Chu must give it a try, not only for the starting point, but also for Jinjiang. You should know that the probability of the novel produced by Jinjiang being successfully adapted is far higher than that of all other literary websites. For Double Bears, who do film and television, this is really a treasure house. However, because Qi Yàn Han thinks that the website should belong to the business of Warring States Technology, it still needs to be discussed whether Double Bears or Warring States Technology comes forward to propose an acquisition.

In order to provide a large amount of content for the upcoming video website, Shuangxiong will propose an acquisition of Shanghai Centon Culture Media. This is a huge monster and is developing rapidly and is not so easy to take over. As for Shuangxiong Film and Television, it will only do film business in the future~
