This actor just wants to verify.

Chapter 242 I shouldn't spoil you (ask for monthly ticket)
Fortunately, dreams are just dreams.

After Hao Yun had been away for two or three days, the crew had already started packing up and preparing to leave.

"Did you finish filming?"

There was no incident in the crew where the film was burned, or where the film was stolen by village tyrants and had to be redeemed with money.

Hao Yun’s first play went incredibly smoothly.

Even the ending part was not shot by him.

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

Co-directed.

This kind of movie can probably recover its costs just by selling overseas copyrights.

Get some more bonuses, and get some more box office revenue from the film’s release.

Movies can make some money.

At least prove to the big guys that you don’t lose money.

"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 gaps.

"I joined the crew of Blood Romance on January 1, which was the sixth day of the Chinese New Year. I wanted to go back for a few days."

Hao Yun must want to go back.

Since becoming a celebrity, I no longer have to work at fixed hours like office workers, but I still rarely get to go home.

I couldn't go back home during the Mid-Autumn Festival, so 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 require special effects or anything like that, but editing is still a big job."

Editing is usually done by professional editors, but the director will maintain close communication with the editor during the fine editing.

There are also films directed by directors who understand editing.

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 skills.

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

There is another way to hand over everything to the editor, but it is generally only available abroad.

Some big film companies over there have the final editing rights, and after the director has cut the film, the company can make changes on its own without the director’s consent. It all depends on how the contract is written.

When Wu Yushen was filming "The Ultimate Target", his first work in Hollywood, he did not have the final editing rights. The editing rights belonged to the producer. Later, because of the popularity of "Face/Off", his status was improved and he was given the final editing rights.

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

This shows how much importance he attaches to editing.

"Uncle Jiang, are you free by then?" Hao Yun felt a headache, but he also knew that he couldn't avoid this kind of thing and he must learn it.

As long as the system can still reward him with scripts, he will make the second part sooner or later.

Moreover, as he has made achievements as a director, even if the system does not give him scripts, screenwriters will take the initiative to find him for cooperation.

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

Jiang Wen wanted to beat this guy to death.

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

Indeed, if Jiang Wen helped him edit the film, the result would definitely not be bad.

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

"Now that we've finished filming, when will we start editing? There's no need to rush." ​​Hao Yun doesn't have a definite plan for the movie yet.

Because all your plans are subject to the prerequisite of being submitted for review and completion.

Ok……

There is a counterexample right before our eyes.

In 2000, Jiang Wen sent "The Cabinet Comes" 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 be a director for five years."

It’s not that he lacks patience, but he already knew it would not pass the review.

Some people say that the cabinets in Jiang Wen’s movie are not evil enough.

But actually he wanted to express something else.

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

Yan Liana said that things have passed, and the Japanese people today have nothing to do with the cabinets before. You cannot blame the mistakes of history on people today.

Therefore, he is the Japanese people's favorite contemporary Chinese writer.

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

With this question in mind, he listened to many stories from people who had experienced the War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression, and later went to Neon to study and read anthropology and sociology works such as "The Chrysanthemum and the Sword". Gradually, he was able to overlap these two images.

In the end, it was discovered that they were actually the same thing, just two variants in different environments. This made Jiang Wen shudder:

A mild-mannered Neon man can easily turn into a closet in our impression!
Jiang Wen uses the movie "The Closet Is Coming" to tell you that the closet is not a historical product, and there is no difference between the Japanese people today and the closet.

They are the cabinets!

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

Jiang Wen had considered everything that Hao Yun had not considered.

"Uncle, am I worthy?"

It really came. Hao Yun just felt it was a bit ridiculous. It was his first time making a movie, and he took it to the three major film festivals to embarrass himself?
It is better to choose something less exciting, 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' and 'useless'?" Jiang Wen raised his hand and hit Hao Yun on the back of the head.

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

You can hit me in the face, but if you hit me on the head, aren’t you afraid of making me stupid?

The brain is the most delicate part and any mistake can turn a person into a mental patient.

Some finishing touches were given to Guo Degao, while Hao Yun packed up his things, disbanded the crew, and returned to the capital with a pile of films.

Since his storyboards were very detailed, Jiang Wen showed it to the editor Zhang Yifan who introduced him to him and he said that the workload was not too heavy.

Moreover, as a new director, Zhang Yifan thinks Hao Yun's performance is amazing.

Some even suspect that this movie, which has been a hot topic in the circle, was actually directed by Jiang Wen himself.

Zhang Yifan is very familiar with Jiang Wen's methods.

He joined the crew of Jiang Wen's "The Cabinet Is Coming" in 98, and later participated in the editing work of "Looking for the Gun", and collaborated with Jiang Wen many times.

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

Hao Yun knows all these shots by heart and has a lot of ideas about editing.

Especially in the editing part, Zhang Yifan hardly believed that Hao Yun had never participated in the editing work, because Hao Yun could always get to the point and had a thorough understanding of each link.

Uh……

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

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

After hiring an editor, Hao Yun started working.

At night, he discussed the editing details with Zhang Yifan. During the day, Hao Yun went to class and Zhang Yifan was in charge of editing and post-production.

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

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

If Jiang Wen took action, the amount of film would have to be at least three times what it is now.

It is early January now and we will probably be done trimming by mid-February.

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

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

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

The composer Liu Yajun was introduced by Zhang Yadong.

If you say this name, maybe not many people know it, but if you say Lao Wu, many people will know it.

In the late 80s, Lao Wu's name was already well-known in the domestic music circle. There was a saying at the time to support this: "There is Lao Wu in the north and Lao Zai in the south."

Both of them are recognized by experts as the two greatest 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 Tang Dynasty Band’s first album in 1992, Lao Wu was named “the greatest guitarist in Asia” by overseas music critics.

However, in 1996, due to huge differences in musical concepts and disobedience to leadership, Lao Wu was kicked out of the Tang Dynasty Band.

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

He also wrote soundtracks for movies and held art exhibitions.

Zhang Yadong introduced a lot of jobs to him.

In 2002, Lao Wu returned to the band.

Those who play rock music are all poor. Tang Dynasty hasn't released any new works for several years. Lao Wu may look very high-end, but it is actually very cheap.

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