32, The Difficult Choice of Editing

Magic City.

Inside a tall building.

A little light penetrated the dark floor-length curtains and fell on the computer screen in the editing room.

At this moment, six people were surrounding the screen and carefully viewing the edited images frame by frame.

In three days, the first episode of the first season of "Extreme Challenge" will be broadcast, so the day after the recording ended, the editing department began to work day and night.

At this time, the preliminary content and plot editing has been finalized. It will be refined and uploaded to the platform after it is reviewed and approved by several members of the director team.

However, now the review process is stuck.

After watching the more than two hours of content, everyone in the directing team couldn't help but frown.

One of the assistant directors frowned and said, "Do you feel that the plot about Wang Hao is a little too much?"

Yes, this is the root cause of the lag in editing review!

In this two-hour video content, Wang Hao alone accounted for a terrifying 40 minutes of footage, while the average footage left for the other five people was only a pitiful ten minutes.

Even in these ten minutes, I was in the same frame with Wang Hao a lot of times.

And this is the result after the editing team made vigorous cuts!

In fact, Wang Hao's performance in the recording that day was too outstanding, and the exciting content accounted for by him alone far exceeded the other five people combined!

Yan Qin scratched his head, looked at the leader of the editing team, and asked, "Is there really no way to cut it anymore? He has too many shots for a newcomer."

"I'm worried that once the show is aired, several other artists and fans will have opinions."

This is Yan Qin’s true thoughts.

If Wang Hao's status and reputation in the entertainment industry were on the same level as those of others, then he wouldn't have to worry too much, but he obviously hasn't reached this status yet.

If Wang Hao is the first focus of the extreme challenge, I am afraid it will attract countless attacks from black fans.

The live broadcast that night is still fresh in my mind, so Yan Qin will never allow such a situation to happen again!

The editing team leader with Mediterranean hair was silent for a long time, then nodded helplessly and said: "It can be deleted, but if you want to continue deleting it, you must start from two aspects: chasing gangsters or bicycle stunts."

"That is to say, all scenes in one of these two links must be deleted!"

As soon as these words came out, the editing room suddenly fell into silence.

A trace of struggle appeared on everyone's face. These two scenes are extremely exciting. No matter which one is deleted, it will be a big loss for the entire program.

But for the overall planning of the program, a choice must be made!

At this moment, everyone's eyes turned to Yan Xi.

He is the chief director of the show, and he is also the planner, investor, and producer of the show. He is the only one who can make this decision.

After a long time, Yan took a deep breath and said word by word: "Delete the part about chasing the gangster. It involves too much dangerous driving, and there is a chance of being banned."

"good!"

The leader of the editing team nodded and hurriedly turned around to gather people to start revising again.

However, at this moment, Yan Qi suddenly stopped him: "Li You, there is one more thing that needs to be done by your editing team."

"You say."

"After you finish editing the main film, I need you to do a solo edit with Wang Hao as the main perspective. I will upload this part of the content in the form of behind-the-scenes after the main film is broadcast."

"Okay! I understand!"

The leader of the editing team, known as Li You, suddenly brightened up and hurriedly went to prepare.

The recording is completed on Monday and will be played on Sunday. The interval between this period is too short, so the entire editing team is almost racing against time to edit the content.

However, the entire editing team did not have any complaints.

In addition to the generous remuneration provided by Yan Zhen, they also have great expectations for the content of this edit.

In particular, Wang Hao's performance in the program surprised the editing team, which is well-known in the editing industry.

There are at least nearly a hundred variety shows that have passed through their hands, but they can count on one hand the number of guests who can surprise them like Wang Hao.

Not to mention the audience in front of the screen, even the entire editing team is looking forward to Wang Hao's next performance.



"Highlights?"

After hearing Yan Zhen's suggestion, several other assistant directors looked at each other subconsciously, feeling extremely surprised in their hearts!

Why didn't they think of this?

Since we can't put it in the main film, let's put the behind-the-scenes. This will not only allow the audience to see Wang Hao's wonderful performance, but also increase the popularity of the extreme challenge program to a certain extent!

You can also catch thieves while recording a program!

Let me ask, apart from Extreme Challenge, which other program can have such a scene?

At this time, the deputy director who just spoke asked again: "Director Yan, do we still need to talk to iQiyi about the content of the behind-the-scenes video? Ask for their opinions?"

"It is indeed needed, but not now."

Suddenly, the assistant directors only saw a mysterious smile emerging from the corners of Yan's pursed lips.

"After the first episode of Extreme Challenge is broadcast, I will naturally discuss it with them."

Hearing this, several people nodded in understanding and ignored the topic.

Another assistant director handed over a stack of A4 paper in his hand and said: "Director Yan, these are some businesses that are interested in sponsoring our program."

"It details the price they can offer, the footage they want to get, and the requirements for our program."

Yan Zhen stretched out his hand to take it, but did not look at it. Instead, he threw it aside and said, "Don't worry, it's too early to see these now."

"We will wait until the first episode is broadcast. By then, I'm afraid this pile of A4 paper will not be thick enough!"

As he spoke, Yan Zhen stood up slowly and looked at the capable men present.

"Okay, that's it for today's meeting."

"You all get ready, the recording of the second phase will start today,"

"I have already arranged for some people to go to the next stop. After the first episode is broadcast, our second live broadcast can follow closely. This is also the key point to increase the popularity of Jichao!"

"I believe that after the recording of the first period, the experience of each of you has been improved, so the results of the second period will definitely be better than the first!"

"Success or failure, fame and fortune, these are all in our own hands!"

"Everyone, come on! I believe that the extreme challenge will definitely become a hit, and we will definitely become a mythical team in the entertainment industry!"

"I want to adapt Wang Hao's sentence!"

"Extreme challenge, this is not life! This is the result of our hard work and sweat!"
