Chapter 241 I Shouldn't Spoil You (Ask for Monthly Votes)

Luckily, dreams are just dreams.

When Hao Yun was away for two or three days, the crew was already packing up and preparing to evacuate.

"Filming finished?"

The crew did not have any film burns or village bullies breaking in and stealing the film, and then having to pay money to redeem it.

Hao Yun's first play went incredibly smoothly.

He was not even responsible for filming the ending.

If Jiang Wen's ban period had not passed, Hao Yun would have wanted to fill in Jiang Wen's name in the director column.

Co-directed.

In this way, the film can probably recover its costs just by selling overseas copyrights.

Get some bonuses, and get some box office revenue after the release.

The film can make some money.

At least prove that he is not losing money in front of the big guys.

"Are you going home for the New Year?" In addition to finishing the remaining shots, Jiang Wen also helped Hao Yun check for missing shots and fill in some shots.

"I joined the crew of "Blood Romance" on January 27, which is the sixth day of the New Year. I want to go back for a few days."

Hao Yun definitely wants to go back.

Since becoming a star, I don’t have to work at fixed hours like office workers, but I still go home very rarely.

I couldn’t go back during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and it would be a shame if I didn’t go back during the Spring Festival.

“Then go back later and come here earlier. Don’t forget that your movie still needs post-production. Art films don’t need special effects, but editing is still a big job.”

Editing is usually handed over to professional editors, but the director will maintain close communication with the editor during fine editing.

There are also movies that directors who know editing personally direct.

Sometimes there will be a "director's cut". This type of director has strong requirements for what he wants to express and has post-editing technology.

This technology also includes color grading, mixing, packaging files, etc.

There is also a type that is completely handed over to the editor, but it is generally only available abroad.

Some large film companies there have the final editing rights. After the director's editing, the company can make changes on its own without the director's consent. It mainly depends on how the contract is written.

When Wu Yushen went to Hollywood to shoot his first work "Ultimate Target", he did not have the final editing rights. The editing rights belonged to the producer. Later, because of the popularity of "Face Change", the ground was raised, and he had the final editing rights.

Jiang Wen once said in an interview-"I think the success or failure of a movie depends on editing for 50%."

This shows how much he values ​​editing.

"Uncle Jiang, are you free at that time?" Hao Yun felt a headache, but he also knew that this kind of thing could not be avoided, and he must learn it.

As long as the system can still reward him with a script, he will shoot the second one sooner or later.

Moreover, as he has made achievements in directing, even if the system does not give him a script, there will be screenwriters who will take the initiative to find him for cooperation.

"Why do you care whether I am free or not? Editing is something that a director must participate in. What story you want to tell and what ideas you want to express are all completed through editing."

Jiang Wen wanted to hammer this guy to death.

I shouldn't spoil you. You are fearless, right?

Indeed, if Jiang Wen helps him edit, the editing effect will definitely not be bad.

After all, he participated in the filming of this movie throughout the whole process.

"Now that the filming is finished, when will we edit it? There is no need to be too anxious." Hao Yun has no definite plan for the movie.

Because all your plans are based on the premise that it must be submitted for review.

Well...

There is a counterexample in front of us.

In 2000, Jiang Wen sent "The Cabinet Is Coming" to Cannes and won the Jury Prize. However, because the film had not been reviewed at the time, it violated the rules and was punished with "not being able to serve as a director for five years."

It's not that he is impatient, but he knew it would not pass the review.

Some people say that the cabinets in Jiang Wen's film are not evil enough.

But in fact, he wants to express another meaning.

He is different from Yan Lien Ke, a professor and doctoral supervisor at Renmin University who has won numerous awards and is known as a master of absurd realism.

Yan Lien Ke said that things have passed, and the Japanese people today have nothing to do with the cabinets before, and you can't blame the mistakes of history on people today.

So, he is the most favorite contemporary Chinese writer of Japanese people.

In 1982, when Jiang Wen was studying at the Central Academy of Drama, a group of Japanese students came to his class. Their gentle and elegant appearance was very different from the cabinets in the movie, which confused him.

With this question, he listened to many stories of people who experienced the War of Resistance against Japan, including those who went to Japan to study later, and read anthropology and sociology works such as "The Chrysanthemum and the Sword", and gradually overlapped these two types of images.

In the end, he found that they were actually the same thing, just two variants in different environments.

This made Jiang Wen shudder:

A gentle and elegant Japanese person can easily become a cabinet in our impression!

Jiang Wen uses the movie "The Cabinet Comes" to tell you that the cabinet is not a historical product, and there is no difference between the Japanese people and the cabinets now.

They are the cabinets!

"Hurry up and edit it for review. Even if you can't make it to Cannes in May, you can try Venice in September."

What Hao Yun didn't consider, Jiang Wen considered very carefully for him.

"Uncle, am I worthy of it?"

It really happened. Hao Yun just felt it was a bit absurd. He made a movie for the first time, and he took it to the three major film festivals to embarrass himself?

It would be better to choose a lesser one, such as the Locarno International Film Festival, the San Sebastian International Film Festival, the Cairo International Film Festival, etc.

"What do you mean by 'unworthy'? You are useless!" Jiang Wen raised his hand and hit Hao Yun on the back of his head.

"Okay, let's try to go to Venice." Hao Yun was convinced.

You can hit my face, but if you hit my head, aren't you afraid of making me stupid?

The brain is the most delicate part, and a slight mistake can turn a person into a psychopath.

Some finishing work was handed over to Guo Degao, Hao Yun packed up his things, disbanded the crew, and returned to the capital with a pile of film.

Because his storyboard was very detailed, the editor Zhang Yifan, who was introduced by Jiang Wen, said that there was not much work to do after seeing it.

Moreover, for a new director, Zhang Yifan thought Hao Yun's performance was amazing.

He even suspected that this movie, which was very popular in the circle, was actually shot by Jiang Wen himself.

Zhang Yifan was very familiar with Jiang Wen's techniques.

He joined Jiang Wen's "The Cabinet Is Coming" crew in 1998, and later participated in the editing work of "Looking for the Gun", and cooperated with Jiang Wen many times.

However, through chatting with Hao Yun, he gradually dispelled his doubts.

Hao Yun knew all these shots well, and he also had a lot of ideas about editing.

Especially in the editing, Zhang Yifan didn't believe that Hao Yun had never participated in the editing work, because Hao Yun could always get to the point and had a good understanding of each link.

Uh...

Hao Yun got a lot of attributes from him and learned a lot.

Whether it works or not depends on whether the sheep is fat.

After hiring an editor, Hao Yun started working.

In the evening, he and Zhang Yifan discussed the details of editing. During the day, Hao Yun went to class, and Zhang Yifan took charge of editing and post-production.

As for when it can be edited, Zhang Yifan said it will be soon.

Because Hao Yun is different from Jiang Wen, he didn't waste too much film - this is also the reason why Zhang Yifan later believed that the movie was made by Hao Yun, not Jiang Wen.

If it was Jiang Wen, the amount of film would be at least three times more than it is now.

It is now early January, and it will be finished in mid-February.

Domestic films generally only need 4 to 6 weeks of post-editing time.

Hollywood-level screen masterpieces with higher picture quality generally require 3 to 6 months or even longer post-editing process.

Hao Yun's "Heart Labyrinth" was a semi-finished product when it was filmed. If it weren't for the soundtrack, it might have been finished in a month.

The soundtrack artist Liu Yajun was introduced by Zhang Yadong.

If you say this name, not many people may know it, but if you say Lao Wu, there are too many people who know it.

In the late 1980s, Lao Wu's name was already very famous in the domestic music circle. There was a saying at that time to prove it: "There is Lao Wu in the north and Lao Zai in the south."

Both of them are recognized by experts as the two great guitar masters in the north and south.

Later, Lao Wu became a member of the "Tang Dynasty Band" and served as the lead guitarist.

After the release of the Tang Dynasty Band's first album in 1992, Lao Wu was rated as "the greatest guitarist in Asia" by overseas music critics.

However, in 1996, Lao Wu was kicked out of the Tang Dynasty band because of the huge difference in musical concepts and his disobedience to the leadership.

He performed solo under the name "Tang Dynasty Lao Wu".

He also wrote music for movies and held art exhibitions.

Zhang Yadong introduced him to many jobs.

In 2002, Lao Wu returned to the band.

Rock musicians are all poor. Tang Dynasty has not released any new works for several years. Lao Wu seems to be very high-end, but in fact he is very cheap.

He is not a professional composer, but Hao Yun does not have high requirements for music, so there is no big problem in using him.
