Didn't you say that we would lose money after filming?

Chapter 222: Still unstable this time?
A lot of time has passed. If we count from the start of filming of "A Chinese Odyssey", five months have actually passed.

Over the past five months, their crew has traveled to many places, starting from the film and television city, then filming all the way to the desert, and then to the Jiangnan area where spring is in full bloom.

We have been to many places, and the crew went to each film set one by one.

In fact, Xia Yuan has always been very fast at filming. High efficiency is one of the reasons, but the biggest reason is that he has a high degree of control over the crew.

Generally speaking, it only takes Xia Yuan about two months to shoot a movie, and if everything goes well, it may even take less time.

This time was an exception, as the shooting lasted for five months.

But it is actually understandable, after all, this shooting is different from the previous ones.

In the past, Xia Yuan would be concerned about funding, construction period, quality and other issues, so the pressure would be particularly great. He would try his best to meet the deadline and try to speed up the construction.

Then there is the nitpicking and control over quality.

It's even so perverted that if one of their eyes is not right, they will start over and reshoot the whole thing.

Although it is true that the image was polished in this way and the quality has improved, you can definitely not say that this kind of shooting process was a happy one.

But this time was different. This time, everyone in the crew had smiles on their faces, and Xia Yuan was also much more tolerant towards the staff and actors.

Because now they are no longer afraid of losing money, and they can no longer put pressure on him financially or financially.

On the contrary, in this state, Xia Yuan felt that he was much more relaxed. After all, he no longer had to consider what he had to consider before. What if he didn't do a good job or didn't control the funds well? What if there was an overspending? What if the scene was not shot well?
Now? Now we don't have these problems.

Therefore, he arranged the filming tasks more leniently, so the progress was slower.

But overall it wasn't that slow, because normally they had to shoot a movie, but this time it was different, although they were shooting the same story this time, it was a whole connected story.

But it’s actually the size of two movies.

So, in fact, the progress has not fallen behind much.

On the contrary, in this state, Xia Yuan felt that his attitude and state towards work had undergone a huge change.

As for where exactly this change occurred, even he himself couldn't explain it clearly for the time being.

But what he could feel was that it wasn't a bad thing.

Soon after the filming was completed, it entered the post-production stage. He was still the one who strictly supervised it and followed the tradition of not letting outsiders make a single penny.

It is very important to check it yourself, because Xia Yuan knows very well that the most important things in a movie are not just the plot and the main features, pictures and so on.

There are also some very important things that play a role that is no less important than the plot.

That's music.

Music has always been a way for people to express and let out their emotions. A good movie often needs better music to set it off.

For example, this time too.

And compared to the past, Xia Yuan made another important decision this time: he would sing the soundtrack of this movie himself.

Yes, that’s right, just sing it yourself!

This was a route he had never tried before. Although the soundtracks of his previous works were also created by Xia Yuan, he always copied the scores and gave them to professional singers and musicians to sing and play, and never tried to do it himself.

Because Xia Yuan is very knowledgeable about himself. Although he knows a few things about music, if you ask him to compare himself with professionals, he will definitely not be able to compare.

After all, they are professionals. Judging from their singing skills and playing proficiency, they can definitely present a better effect.

But it's different now.

This was suggested by my senior.

After they returned home, Xia Yuan was going to work on the post-production immediately. Then the senior student found him and said, "Now that we have revealed our cards, you and I will stop pretending, so can we just talk it out? I wonder if there is such a possibility? Can you sing by yourself this time? After all, we are doing this to lose money, so we can try anything boldly. We have had so much fun during the filming process, so what if you sing a background music to reward yourself? Anyway, we didn't think about making any money this time."

"That makes sense!" Then Xia Yuan thought, damn, what the senior said really makes sense.

Now that he has achieved success, isn't this movie just a reward for himself? It's just to try something he hasn't tried before.

In that case, why not continue the reward?
To be honest, every time he saw the music score he had to sing to others, he would still feel a little itchy in his heart.

Just like when Thimble can’t smoke an e-cigarette, her lungs feel itchy, and when Cai Zhiyin can’t touch the basketball, her overalls feel itchy.

In the past, due to his level issues, he never dared to do it casually, but this time it’s different!

So can he sing it himself? Although his singing skills are definitely not as good as those of professionals, he is still an art student after all, and compared to ordinary amateur musicians, he is still quite good.

Otherwise, if he didn't understand anything, he wouldn't be able to figure out the music score!
It's just that for professional singers, there's no bristles on his brush.

Is there a possibility that he can slowly practice his singing skills? Is it possible to be prepared?
So Xia Yuan took the music score and went to find his old partner.

When the head of the record company saw Xia Yuan, his eyes almost narrowed into slits due to smiling, and naturally he didn't say anything about Xia Yuan's request.

Because Xia Yuan is a living God of Wealth, he is very productive, and the quality of the works he produces is high. Many film and television soundtracks and their singers have become popular, and the company's name has also become well-known.

Naturally, they would not say no to Xia Yuan's request. They would do whatever the God of Wealth asked.

If he wants to sing it himself, he can sing it himself. Besides, he is the one who can write works like "The Sun Also Rises", so his attainments must be higher than theirs.

So, when Xia Yuan entered the recording studio and put on his headphones, he began to speak slowly: "The past, the present, the past will never come back."

On the other side, Tang Ying's mouth was about to split from laughing.

Sure enough, the deception was in place, and it was stable! Is it still unstable this time?

In the past, in order to lose money, she always tried every possible means to make trouble and did all kinds of incredible and outrageous things.

But you won’t lose anything.

So she thought about it carefully and found the reason, which was that the couple had different opinions.

This time they have changed for the better and started over again. They are in perfect accord with each other, and they are performing one outrageous move after another.

Isn’t it stable this time?
