Chapter 25 Filming is over

"Click!"

Cheng Xiaodong shouted several times in the car, and the jockey immediately started to slow down, but after a while the car stopped, and Xie Changhua and others immediately surrounded him.

"How is it?" he asked anxiously.

"Okay, it will definitely work this time. If it still doesn't work, we will set up a stand tomorrow and drive to follow the filming!" Cheng Xiaodong untied the rope that fixed his body, took the camera off Luo Lie's shoulder, and handed it off the carriage.

In order to capture the thrilling scene of Wang Yu with half of his body outside the carriage, his hair almost touching the ground, and to save time, Cheng Xiaodong volunteered to get on the carriage, put the camera on the actor Luo Lie's shoulder, and put him

As a moving fixed frame, with the cooperation of the two people, a close-up of Wang Yu's face was started. Luo Lie followed the order and slowly moved his body closer to Wang Yu to adjust the distance, and pressed Wang Yu's body to let him perform with confidence.

The three of them broke up each action and filmed it. They went back and forth in the car several times and changed the tape many times. Finally, they captured enough material.

"You're lucky this time. If you get good grades, I will definitely give you three red envelopes!" Xie Changhua saw Luo Lie rubbing his shoulders after getting off the car, and immediately came to their side to comfort them.

"Whatever you say, even if the photo is not good, I still have to post it!" Ah Jing immediately said with a smile.

"Yes, yes, I said something wrong, I must say it!" He corrected it immediately.

"Then thank you, director!" Luo Lie immediately put down his hand covering his shoulders, laughed and wiped his sweat.

Before he finished laughing, Cheng Xiaodong called him away: "Ariel, let's do another close-up of your eyes with blood. You can finish the whole shooting."

"Okay, come on." Luo Lie immediately responded and ran over. The makeup artist immediately put on makeup, squeezed the blood bag and asked him to stand on the carriage again. Liu Shiyu carried the camera and lay down at Luo Lie's feet. Everyone shook his body and let him stand on the carriage again.

The screen became shaky, as if they were driving. They took a few small steps back, stretched out their hands to wipe their eyes, and tried several times. Everyone watched the two of them with bated breath.

After sensing a tacit understanding, the two started shooting. After only three shots, Liu Shiyu felt very satisfied.

"Hey, let's call it a day!" With Xie Changhua's shout, all filming finally ended.

The entire crew cheered, applauded and cheered. Xie Changhua's shoulders were patted again and again, and his neck was hugged again and again. From the beginning of "Master Wang" as a team of four people to now, from finding actors to designing

Action, budget and cost, overnight changes and filming, re-shooting, after 21 days, the filming was finally completed with the efforts of everyone.

The four of them found each other in the cheering crowd in tacit agreement, looked at each other, nodded slightly, and lowered their heads.

The completion of the movie means that the filming is completed, there are no longer major revisions, and it also means farewell. Xie Changhua rented a store, and all the staff gathered together. Hundreds of people drank together and chatted and laughed at the wine table. The boss

The person who was called didn't even have time to raise his head. He rushed around. When he came back, he kept urging the waiter to serve the food. People at each table rushed to each other and toasted each other. It was very lively.

The main members of the crew were sitting at a table, and while they were drinking and drinking, the people at the table gradually opened their mouths, complained, and complained about the shortcomings during the filming. Xie Changhua's changes to the scene and Du Qifeng's bad temper went hand in hand. Everyone had to talk about it.

After a few words, there was no other way. The two of them could only toast to apologize and admit their mistakes, and the party did not end until 11 o'clock in the middle of the night.

Several leading actors couldn't help but want to see the final film, but they couldn't persuade them to go back. They followed them to the editing room and watched several people editing the film. In the dark room, the hand-cranked cutter was playing the footage, and the three of them discussed what to do.

When it came to cutting, several actors didn't know how to cut, so they could only watch on the sidelines and couldn't help. They wanted to speak but were blocked again. They were so depressed. Even if they spoke, no one would pay attention to them. They could only

Return without success and wait until the next day to try again.

Two days later, at 6 o'clock in the morning, the three of them combined all the results of several days of cutting, and finally saw the final sample, but it was more than 2 hours long. They invited the leading actors to watch the cat movie and share the results of their efforts.

I also told them not to come again, let alone to ask for more cuts. This is the disadvantage of asking people you know to act.

While watching the film, several actors kept shouting excitedly. They themselves did not expect that the effect would be like this after editing. Especially Wang Yu, when he saw the scene where he was besieged, he clenched his fists unconsciously.

I repeated the movements along with the movie, but my movements couldn't keep up with the picture.

"Can kung fu movies be shot and edited like this?" He kept asking the people next to him after he finished playing. He couldn't believe that the picture was so different from the reality. Unfortunately, the people around him couldn't give him the answer either.

"What do you think?"

"Xie Sheng, needless to say, it's absolutely popular, but do we have to cut off twenty minutes? Is it true that we can't keep it?" Luo Lie was the first to speak. He no longer doubted the success of the box office, but felt reluctant to part with it.

More scenes can make people more impressed. If twenty minutes are cut out of such a good film, he must have a role. Wang Yu doesn't care. As the leading actor, he runs through most of the scenes. His scenes are everywhere, so

He didn't make a sound either.

"There is no way. There are rules for movie scheduling in theaters. If you make it too long, it will be difficult to schedule the show. It will be difficult to show it in two hours." Seeing that they still didn't speak, Xie Changhua shook his head helplessly.

When Westward Journey was released, behind the scenes, it felt like it was a pity that so much good material had been cut, so they re-shot some scenes and made it into two episodes. After the box office came out, they always regretted that cutting into two episodes led to a lower box office.

Therefore, Xie Changhua will not make this mistake, and he will cut it off even if it is hard to cut.

Xie Changhua glanced at them and said: "Let me tell you something. I promise that everything you see now will be put on the video tape. As for what is released, I have no control over it. Don't come to me before it is released. We will start going there today.

Shaw Brothers Studios is doing the dubbing and waiting for post-production, and then they will let Ms. Fang, Uncle Tianlin and others watch the film. After asking for their opinions, it will be cut and sent for review. If it doesn't work, it will be cut after watching the response at the midnight screening. You don't want to come.

It’s annoying us. We have cut it to this point and have no choice but to rely on others to make the decision.”

"Of course." Several people said what they were thinking, but they didn't know what they were thinking. After chatting for a while, they started to leave, leaving only three old classmates.

"Hey, old classmate, my role is so small, I shouldn't be cut off here!" Huang Xingxiu stayed after a few people left. She kept looking at the old classmates, trying to play the emotional card.

, a woman’s role can be said to be dispensable in this era, she was very nervous.

"It won't be too much. If your scene is reduced, it can only be cut to 3 minutes at most, otherwise it will not be able to connect with the plot. If their opinions are too excessive, we will firmly oppose it." Liu Shiyu immediately spoke.

Xie Changhua glanced at Fat Jai and Simon Yam, who stayed for the same reason, and said: "Don't worry, we have already considered it, we will actively listen to your opinions, and we will definitely not delete the scenes of you two!"
Chapter completed!
