“A collaboration proposal has been received regarding Dream Vision. In Hollywood.”
“Hollywood?”
Hollywood.
The name of the region that is the center of the American film industry and has the highest name value in film production around the world.
Originally, Hollywood was the name of a region in Los Angeles, California, but these days, Hollywood movies are almost treated as a single movie genre because of the value of the name.
“What do you want to do with Dream Vision in Hollywood? No, the fact that a collaboration offer came from Hollywood is a story about a film company, right? Which Hollywood film company sent the proposal?”
“To be exact, these are proposals from all five major Hollywood film companies. They are all expressing their intention to transplant their movies to Dream Vision.”
“Oh… ”
The five major film companies in Hollywood are Epic Pictures, Nexus Studios, Silver Screen Pictures, Odyssey Films, and Crescent. These are the five major film companies. It could be said that they are companies that have established themselves in Hollywood since the early 20th century and operated theaters, and have survived to this day.
Most large-scale project films or films with famous original works are produced after passing through those five films.
In order to improve the quality of a movie, comprehensive elements such as famous actors with excellent acting skills, CG, realistic sets and props, and competent staff are needed. And all of that is something you can’t even dream of unless you have a lot of money.
So, in a way, it was natural that most movies that hit theaters would go through those large film companies.
“From the beginning, from production to distribution, there is no part that I have not been involved in.”
I nodded at Maria’s explanation.
“It’s a transplant to Dream Vision… Honestly, it’s not difficult.”
“That’s right. We are already doing similar work on games and videos that are compatible with Dream Vision.”
In order to watch movies using Dream Vision, additional work was needed to give the image a three-dimensional effect. But that was something that was quickly resolved once Maria stepped forward. Because no computer in the world could match her work speed.
“Is that all? Then, I think we can just charge a reasonable fee and allow it.”
“I guess they are considering producing a movie based on the premise that it will be viewed through Dream Vision.”
“It’s more serious than I thought.”
“Conservatism: The Hollywood film industry is extremely conservative, but it also actively tries to accept new technologies. This means that the Big 5 positions in the movie entertainment industry were not won by gambling.”
Considering watching movies through Dream Vision from the production stage means that we are willing to change the way we shoot movies.
Perhaps, rather than watching a movie from the perspective of a fixed camera, the idea was to allow people to watch the movie with a free composition, like an observer of a game.
“To do that, we need to sell filming equipment.”
“Yes.”
Videos taken with existing filming equipment have limitations in using Dream Vision’s functions. Of course, that alone will provide a much better three-dimensional effect than watching a regular 3D movie or a VR device, but it still requires Maria to do additional work.
Doing things twice every time was not efficient at all.
Regardless of whether there is room left in her abilities.
“Let’s consider it positively for now.”
“Are you okay? Since they are all overseas companies, there is a possibility that the equipment could flow into a secret society and reverse engineer it.”
“What do you think? We’ve already released Dream Vision, and we’re providing a lot of equipment to Glitch’s streamers. There is no need to block foreign film companies. The only thing they give me is a camera… If you try to take out the technology, wouldn’t it be okay to put in a device that will damage the circuit?”
“The streamers are all in Korea. And it was lent on the condition that it would never be lent to anyone else or lost.”
Although Maria voiced her concerns, she probably wasn’t really opposed. The purpose is probably just to remind me of the risks. Considering her intelligence and abilities, she could have already run the simulation hundreds of times in her head.
Technology leaks were not a risk at all. Rather, it was closer to the original purpose of expanding Awaken.
‘It’s a lot of trouble to accommodate a poor owner.’
“I think it would be even more pleasing if the copy succeeds through anti-reversing. Technologies such as dream vision and drone cameras are one level higher than modern technology, so if you copy them, it will be noticeable. Then you will know right away who copied the technology. Right?”
“… Yes. The reason we tried to expand Awaken’s business area in the first place was to throw bait and catch those guys.”
Maria burst out laughing.
“Then, I will proceed in the direction of agreeing to everything.”
“Yes. I wonder what kind of movie they will film.”
“Let’s see… Oh, among the movies that want Dream Vision implanted, there is one that will be filming soon. It is produced by Nexus Studio, and in fact, among Hollywood’s Big 5, Nexus Studio was the first to receive inquiries related to Dream Vision.”
She continued speaking while looking into space.
“The movie is a hero movie… what? this… ”
***
Carl Rogers is a legendary figure in the film industry.
A truly mythical figure who started out as an intern and rose to the position of president of Nexus Studio.
Now in his 80s, he has stepped down from his position as honorary chairman, saying his physical condition is not what it used to be, but his active external activities have not diminished at all even after he stepped down from work. Even though it was not mandatory to attend an event held at Comic Con recently, I attended it because I enjoyed such activities.
So, those who were close to him still jokingly joked that he retired so that he could stop giving headaches and go out and have fun. He said he was tired of being locked in the headquarters and only looking at documents, so he ran away.
Carl Rogers visited the headquarters of Nexus Studio for the first time in a long time.
Ssukㅡ
He leaned back on the soft leather chair where the chairman sat and looked around the chairman’s office.
The walls were lined with posters of movies produced by Nexus Studios that were successful at the box office, and the scenery of Hollywood was visible through the large windows.
Most of the posters were films he produced while he was chairman.
Carl Rogers looked at them as if stroking them with his eyes full of emotion.
After resigning from my honorary position, I had deliberately avoided visiting the headquarters, so it was a sight I had not seen in a very long time.
After being lost in sentiment for a while, he muttered quietly.
“The decorations on the desk are the same.”
“How about it? Don’t you feel nostalgic? Don’t you feel like returning to the position of president even now?”
Alex Stewart, the man who succeeded Carl Rogers as president of Nexus Studios, responded to that statement with a sly smile.
He was a man in his late 40s, but he had the impression of being very young compared to his age, perhaps because of the free-spirited atmosphere unique to Nexus Studio, or because of the weight of years carried by Carl Rogers in front of him.
The two had worked together since Carl Rogers was president, so even though it had been a while since they had seen each other in person, there was no awkward atmosphere at all.
Carl Rogers looked shocked at Alex Stewart’s words.
“… There’s no need to do that. Even if you say that, it’s impossible to work any more with this old body. Do you know the term elder abuse?”
“These days, I heard that many elderly people also receive vocational training and work again.”
Alex Stewart smiled when he saw Carl Rogers shaking his head.
“Carl Because it was what you liked. I liked it, but I have no particular hobby in decorating rooms, so I left it as is.”
“That’s right.”
“Well, you have no intention of returning to the position of chairman. I guess you didn’t disapprove of my handling of the work. Wow, it feels like I’m being graded by a teacher at this age. I can’t help it when I’m in front of you.”
The atmosphere between the two people, who had been joking and having a personal conversation, changed when Carl Rogers brought up the serious matter of visiting the headquarters.
“… So, has there been a reply from Awaken?”
