Leila shrugged, "If you could see those special effects shots, you wouldn't ask that." Avatar brings more than just a story and special effects, it creates a world, a living alien world, an ecosystem that is different from Earth. You can look for the trailer they put out and you'll see why I said that. ”

Films like "Avatar" release trailers when they are not fully produced. Then a version is released every once in a while to whet the audience's appetite, so as not to be forgotten by them when it is released.

"What about Downey's movie?" Roy anxious for Downey.

"Don't worry so much. Layla laughed: "Avatar and Downey's Sherlock Holmes are not the same genre, and the impact at the box office will definitely be there, but it won't be too much." And they weren't released at the same time, and they were separated by a week. ”

Roy smiled wryly. If it's really a "Titanic"-level movie, a one-week interval is really useless. I hope that as she said, there will be some differences in the audience base, and the impact will not be too great.

To the surprise of the two, not long after Downey left, Cameron called and said that he was going to visit. And he not only visited the door in person, but also brought a few people who were said to be the publishers.

"Leila, I'm looking for you for a screen!" Cameron told him the purpose of his visit as soon as he entered the door.

Leila was a little stunned: "What screen do you want from me?"

"What's the screen? you're hiding it from me!" said Cameron.

It wasn't until he finished that Leila knew what he meant.

It turned out that he was talking about the one she laid down in the East, which has occupied the super cinema lines in large, medium and small cities.

"Do you still need to come to me in person for this? I think even if I don't speak, with your reputation as a great director, you won't give too little to the film schedule, right?" doesn't even give the movies that make money, do you still have to give them to those street goods?

"Don't tell me that! I'm talking about your IMAX giant screen!" Director Cameron pointed to a middle-aged man with an embarrassed face behind him: "He told me that you have built a lot of IMAX halls over there, and there are no movies to use anyway, so just give them to me." ”

Leila smiled bitterly: "Director Cameron, I know what you're talking about, the problem is that those new halls haven't started operating yet, even if I want to, I can't give them to you!"

Speaking of IMAX, it is still relatively rare in the world. But because of her appearance and the situation she has about the future, she knows that after "Avatar", IMAX will become the new technology that film companies and investors pay the most attention to.

So last year, she began to arrange the Oriental cinema chain and introduced a large number of IMAX giant screens for them. At this point in time, there are too few IMAX type films, and there are only some films like popular science that can be played.

A small number of film sources means that there is no money to make, so few people deliberately spend such a large amount of money to build an IMAX hall. It's not like Leila didn't hear the objections when she asked for the layout below, but she was the boss and could ignore the objections and go her own way.

It's not that she can't listen to other people's opinions, but when she can know what the future holds, those kind reminders have been shelved by her.

What she was holding was to make a lot of money through the Orient of "Avatar", and everyone knows that there are many differences between 3D and IMAX movie tickets. There is no way to do if the equipment is expensive, but the feeling of watching the movie is really not the same day.

Even if Cameron doesn't come to Laila today, she will urge the Oriental side to build a new hall before the movie is released. missed the east wind this time, and when other theaters follow suit, it will be difficult to make such a big profit.

What she didn't expect was that Cameron also knew about it, and specially came to the door to ask for it. Of course, you have to give! You can't give it if you don't let it!

Of course, words can't be said like that.

"You know that very well. Leila showed a wry smile: "I will urge the construction over there as soon as possible, as for whether it can catch up with the release of "Avatar", I dare not guarantee it." ”

Cameron didn't believe her: "I know your vision, I knew it when you were able to capture Heart of the Ocean in my movie." If it were now, I promise I would not be willing to give away that heart of the ocean. Don't deny it, I dare to say that the construction of your IMAX hall is related to my "Avatar"!"

He said it very directly, and Leila smiled: "That's right, I'm very confident in "Avatar", and the construction of Hall X does have something to do with the movie, but Director Cameron, the future will be the world of IMAX, and I should have prepared early." ”

Cameron smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed: "I'll just say you have a good eye." ”

He also thinks the same way, and he is very optimistic about the future of IMAX, so he will make "Avatar" into 3 versions like the current one. Even when she said that, his faith was strengthened.

But how could this person say that he was the king of the world at the Oscars, when he was not confident?

"Anyway, let's talk about it first, when my movie is released, you have to prepare the hall for me! I promise you won't suffer as much as you can open!" he almost patted his chest and made a guarantee.

If someone else said that to her, Leila would have thought about it, but he wouldn't hesitate to say, "I'll do my best." ”

"Don't say anything, just give it to me!" Cameron took it all in a dashing manner, but the people behind him were secretly wiping their foreheads.

In this world, at this point in time, if you want to say that the two people who are most confident in the movie, I am afraid that for the time being, there are only two people, Director Cameron and Leila. Asking for an extra IMAX room means spending more, and these people are not too optimistic about the benefits that the IMAX version can bring.

Why? It's because it's too expensive.

It's twice as expensive as a 3D one!

You can watch 3D for twice as much money, and how many people are willing to pay that extra money to watch IMAX?

In the same way, they also think that it is very stupid for Leila to build so many IMAX theaters in the East, there are not many IMAX theaters in the world, including the United States, but she has so many rooms in the far East, in that supposedly poor bicycle country, almost every city has at least one hall.

I don't need to ask how much to invest in this, but the important thing is that the Orientals can afford it? Many of them live below the poverty line, right?
