Perfect Life

Minghu Culture, ninth floor.

In a room of about thirty square meters, the curtains blocked almost all the light.

There are only twelve seats in the three rows in front of it, and there is a 120-inch medium-sized curtain. At the moment, the screen is showing some fragmentary pictures of the TV series "Romance of the Three Kingdoms".

Of course, there is no doubt that they are all plots related to Sun Ce played by Li Qian.

And this viewing room has just been renovated not long ago.

However, Li Qian is more accustomed to calling it the "pulling room".

Of course, this pulling room, which has only belonged to him so far, is obviously more luxurious than the pulling room in the film academy. From the decoration, to the playback equipment, audio equipment, and even the seats and the carpets under the feet, they are all decorated according to the standards of top hotel suites.

At the beginning, Li Qian bought the eighth and ninth floors of this building in one breath, and also completed the overall basic decoration together, but for Li Qian's studio, which was just starting at the time, not to mention two floors, an eight-story building. After the building was installed, most of it was empty, so the ninth floor only maintained the basic decoration, and did not do specific division and functional decoration.

Last year, because the scale of the company has been continuously expanding, although even in 1998, an eighth floor is still enough, but last October, Li Qian decided to completely clean up the ninth floor. Out.

At present, there will be no people living and working here, but in the near future, there will definitely be people here.

And Li Qian is definitely the first.

Li Qian holds the remote control in his hand and can stop, rewind and fast-forward at any time, but in fact, since the start of playback, he has not done any operations.

such a copy. Not long ago, Feng Yumin arranged for someone to send it to him. It not only included the pictures that had been edited into the version that was about to be broadcast publicly, but also a lot of waste footage, and even the ng footage that was being filmed at that time.

These things are worthless to the audience, but they are full of interest in the film and television industry. Especially for Li Qian, who is quite interested in photography, directing, screenwriting and acting, and has really engaged in related work in various industries, but it is quite valuable.

Through these possibly many consecutive shots are shooting copies of the same picture, and even through one after another wasted performances and useless shots that were edited out, he was able to see the excellence of his performances from another angle. Inferior, he can observe the director's control over the actor's performance to a certain extent, and of course, he can see a lot of the director's adjustment and manipulation of the camera angle.

"Romance of the Three Kingdoms" is just a TV series, ordinarily. Its technical content is incomparable even with ordinary movies. But you must know that in this play, the focus is on the top group of TV directors and photographers in the country. If these people go to make movies, they may not be able to succeed, but they have no doubts about TV dramas. It is the number one in the country! It can be called pure fire!

so. No pauses, and no reversals, though. But in fact, Li Qian has always been very serious.

And while watching, he was still frowning in thought.

Sun Ce's role in the entire TV series is not too long, but including various ng shots, etc., the weight of this copy is not small, and the total playing time is nearly four hours.

Li Qian divided them into four parts. Every day, he took an hour to read one copy, and then, after reading the first time, he would start from the beginning and watch it for the second time.

And today, it was already the third time he started watching it.

for the art industry. Including literature, painting, music, film and television, etc., are all creative industries. In this industry, the most difficult thing is actually the creation of the soul.

There is no other reason, a successful, soul-level creation can open up the minds of countless art practitioners who are stuck in place, and at the same time provide a landmark that can be located.

Take the music industry as an example, just like Zhen Zhen is to the domestic female singer group, just like the Beatles are to rock.

Without them, perhaps what should rise will still rise, but it must be a different face.

Even... if there are no genius-level creations, maybe something will never appear.

After all, the so-called art is really something that only a few people can afford to play and can play.

One of the simplest examples is that there is no Cao Xueqin in this time and space, so until now, the four famous domestic novels, except for Water Margin Three Kingdoms Journey to the West, have always been "Golden Plum", and none of them can reach the level and influence of "Golden Plum" A literary work of the level of A Dream of Red Mansions appeared.

And without Pu Songling, there is still no "Liao Zhai" about ghosts and foxes.

It can be said that these geniuses are the guiding lighthouses for all art practitioners. They are the things that can really stay after hundreds of thousands of years and be called art by future generations.

However, for everyone, it is destined to be the most rare thing, but for Li Qian, it is the least scary thing.

If he wants to be a commercial musician, then he has at least a thousand classic songs in his hands, and he can easily make a newcomer with some qualifications popular. To be an art explorer, he can play Erhu Reflecting the Moon, he can compose "Liang Zhu" for violin, he can write "Yellow River Cantata" for concerto, and even play suona, he can create a set of adaptations The new piece from "Hundred Birds' Sound" is called "Hundred Birds Chaofeng".

And if he wants to be a writer, not to mention other things, even if he just fiddles with those famous short stories in "Liao Zhai" that he can remember, it will be scary enough. What's more, he still has Jin Yong and Gulong. If he is really interested in literature and art, Lu Guo Maoba Lao Cao's stuff, and "White Deer Plain", it's not that he hasn't read it. Maybe the writing is far worse, but... relying on this line to mix things up. Eating, still no problem.

And if he wants to be a filmmaker, he will definitely have no problem as a screenwriter. He has seen so many blockbusters in Hong Kong, mainland China and Hollywood in his previous life, even if the screenwriter's level is almost, just copying and copying is enough to make him become a professional in the industry. The most famous screenwriter.

Even, there are so many good books to base, plus his rich experience in previous lives. Even if he uses a little snack, he pays for it himself, and he wants to be a director to eat, and there will be no problem.

So, here comes the problem.

He does not lack these so-called high-rise and original things that others have acquired in his life in the eyes of others, he lacks. On the contrary, it is only the most basic basic skills.

A description of a scene that appears in a novel, as a director, how do you turn it into a scene that is at least a qualified image to present in front of the audience? What lens language should you use? What kind of light do you need a lighting engineer to help you with? Need a photographer to help you capture what shots?

For a character line, what emotion and performance do you need the actor to give?

At the end of the day, all the shots that the script calls for are shot, how do you edit them into a coherent, fluid story for the movie or TV show?

Being an actor, especially being an actor, is never easy.

But there is no doubt about being a good director. even more difficult.

And now, Li Qian is making up lessons little by little.

Even before the studio, he set himself the goal of going to the cinema to watch at least 20 to 30 movies every year, and when he got home, he would use home playback equipment to watch another 50 or so old movies. .

He went to study photography, and at the top film hall in China, he was exposed to the top teaching, and at the same time. He also especially likes to communicate with students in the directing department, not only borrowing their textbooks to read and take notes. Occasionally I would go to other people's classrooms to listen, and even often go to the film studio with the director department to watch films, discuss and communicate with each other.

In fact, he doesn't have to work so hard.

Just based on the art treasure house in his memory, no matter what he does, there will not be too many obstacles in fact. At least compared to the vast majority of people in this world, he is a genius in himself! In fact, if the ambition is not big, just a music circle is enough for him to gain fame and fortune and become famous.

Not even an exaggeration to say. It doesn't take too long, just give him ten years, and after ten years, he will be eligible to be called "Godfather of Music" by everyone!

He can even take a lot of classic English songs and directly take Liao Liao, He Runqing, Zhou Ai, Xie Bing and the others to the international force, and let them upgrade to become the queens of the international music scene!

But just, for him, was not enough.

Whether it is ambition or ambition, in short, with such unique conditions, he is not ready to give up so easily, he is full of energy and wants to do something bigger.

What's more, he loves movies.

Yes, he loves music, but he also loves movies.

And the same love comes from the heart.

Therefore, as an absolutely powerful figure who is almost unmatched in the music world today, as the man of the two queens, and as the boss of Minghu Culture, which controls the powerful music world, he has never stopped his own day. pace.

He always knew exactly what he needed.

He also always knew very clearly what he was going to do next.

…………

Although it is already 1998, the curtain of the era of rapid development of electronic technology has long been opened, but the current mainstream film preservation format is still the traditional film copy.

Film is very expensive. Although the requirements for film are relatively low in TV series, it is still expensive. Moreover, even copies that require lower standards such as sharpness and sensitivity are really heavy.

There is only Li Qian on the entire ninth floor. In terms of Minghu Culture, only he can play the playback equipment of this small theater. Therefore, even though it has been compressed to the worst standard, one copy can be played. The 30-minute copy still weighs a dozen pounds, and every time he finishes playing one copy, he needs to get up and change the copy himself.

After reading the two copies, more than an hour has passed.

The sound of the projector turning has stopped, and all the images on the screen have disappeared, leaving only the light of the projector, reflecting it white.

Li Qian sat in a comfortable seat, wondering what he was thinking about, and didn't get up for a long time.

It took a cigarette for him to stand up before he stood up. He first walked to the window and pulled open the thick blackout curtains with a "chi la" sound, letting the sunlight outside illuminate the room, and then turned around to take it. After copying, storing, and turning off the power of the playback device, I opened the door and walked downstairs slowly.

For the art industry, good things are like lighthouses, like coordinates, which can be used for people to figure out and learn from over and over again, and then extend and ultimately develop their own artistic brain holes. But bad things, such as ng's footage, such as scrapped demos, are not completely worthless.

To give the simplest example, Li Qian helped Liao Liao in the recording studio to make half-k adjustments to "Woman Flower", scrapped the version that had been nearly completed before, and then re-recorded a new version. .

Then there is no doubt that for the record industry, only the adjusted version is the version that will eventually flow to the market and be heard by everyone, and the version that has been nearly completed before is the one that has been scrapped. , the people who have heard that version may not add up to more than ten people. What's more, perhaps in the future, these abandoned versions will be quietly destroyed one day, and no more people will ever hear them.

And Zhou Ye was fortunate enough to catch up and experience that adjustment in person, and he also heard the before and after versions with his own ears. If he only heard the previous version, or just heard the latter version, perhaps for him, it was just another emotion: Sister Liao Liao is really strong! that is it. However, hearing these two versions within twenty or thirty minutes, in contrast, was enough to give him a strong shock.

So, he seemed to be in a trance.

This is the so-called "scrap", or, in other words, a comparison, which can be used as a reference for practitioners in the art industry.

Especially for Li Qian, watching such a "collection of waste products" over and over again, combined with the memories of the other two versions of the finished product in his mind, made him gain quite a lot.

…………

When walking down the stairs, Li Qian's spirit was still in a trance, as if he hadn't broken free from those thoughts. But soon, before he could reach his office, Huang Wenjuan suddenly pushed the door out of a lounge and saw Li Qian, and stopped him at the time.

"Brother~www.wuxiaspot.com~ Zhuang Meiyue has been waiting for you for a long time."

When Li Qian was stopped by her, he was stunned for a while, and then he patted his forehead, "I almost forgot what I saw, please ask her to come to my office, and I will chat with her."

In the blink of an eye, the three newcomers signed by the company last year, Gerileng, Zhao Yuan and Zhuang Meiyue, have now completed half a year of professional training. In other words, according to the company's plan for them, in the next step, Li Qian must consider making records for them separately.

Among the three, after combining the opinions given by the special training teacher, the first person Li Qian wanted to see was Zhuang Meiyue.

After all, compared to the current step-by-step carefulness, exploration and accumulation of film and television, making music, especially popular music, is his basic plan.

And now, his basic disk needs to be expanded.

Zhuang Meiyue was the first one he chose. (To be continued.)
