It has been almost three years since Minghu Film and Television City was completed and put into use, and it currently has eight large-scale studios, not only the films of Minghu culture will come to shoot, but also the crews of many other film companies will also come to shoot - there is no shortage of film and television cities in China, which dynasty and which theme are available, but there is only one large-scale studio like Minghu Film and Television City that can be used by the crew to build their own sets according to their needs.

There are currently two restaurants in the film and television city, but they are both contracted to the outside world, and the one Li Qian and they are eating at the moment is one of them, so it is conceivable that when they meet Minghu Culture to come to film, the boss who is a little sensible will be very willing to give the company's directors and leaders a little special treatment and open a small stove or something.

Even, when other companies come to film, directors and starring actors, they can also have special treatment - to put it bluntly, this is just one of the means for merchants to attract customers.

There is currently a luxury hotel in Minghu Studios, which is completely built and renovated to five-star standards, in addition to two ordinary dormitory buildings. The former is for big names, celebrities and wealthy crews, and the latter is the residence of ordinary staff and actors during filming, but Minghu Culture did not take care of it by itself, but entrusted the hotel and dormitory to a hotel operation company through bidding, and conducted profit assessment every year to collect its own part of the profits.

It is said that this is a business cooperation with a clear division of interests, but the hotel management deliberately separated a luxury suite with an area of more than 200 square meters on the top floor of the hotel, and did not arrange anyone else to stay at all, only leaving Li Qian to live in an exclusive room when he came to film, and did not charge money.

If a person who does business can't even handle this little thing well, how can business be done?

Of course, for Li Qian at the moment, he just deliberately brought this out, just to see Lu Lingxi's angry white self.

Then, Li Qian smiled, and finally said seriously: "The film has been handled?"

Lu Lingxi was surprised, but suddenly laughed again, "Didn't it happen last time?"

Although Li Qian has been concentrating on filming in the film and television city recently, it is obviously impossible for him to completely shake off some things in the company. So I have to throw the guide tube to Sun Yuting about every week and run back for two days by myself.

Xie Bing and Wang Jingxue's new album is about to be released - although now in the music department, Li Qian is Gu Daliu, and many specific things will no longer be taken care of, but these two people are exceptions, and he will definitely help listen to them. Then, the makeup of "A Chinese Ghost Story" and the preparation of "Crazy Racing", he also had to ask about it, although "Kung Fu Panda" is Cao Zhan's director, he still has the name of the producer, and it is indispensable to pay attention to the progress at any time, and finally, of course, he assisted Lu Lingxi, who directed the movie for the first time, to edit and pace my movie.

In any literary and artistic work, rhythm is king.

Movies, especially commercial films, attach great importance to rhythm.

In Hollywood, where film industrialization is the most mature, the mature production mechanism has reached the level of how many seconds the film script must complete the established plot steps, and there are strict regulations.

This set of mechanisms may not have much effect on genius, or even play a counterproductive role, but it can help average directors stabilize the rhythm of storytelling, so that the story will not be completely scattered to the point of being unwatchable - although there are a lot of complaints about this set of methods of Hollywood studios, both domestic and international, but from the perspective of a film company, this is a set of effective and good methods.

In fact, almost every successful commercial director has his own set of effective rhythm control ability - although it may not be in line with Hollywood's set of metric standards, but in fact, the rules followed behind it are the same.

And Lu Lingxi's first filming, no matter how talented she is, and no matter how good Li Qian's script has been, when it comes to post-editing, Li Qian still has to help her take care of it.

In fact, in the movies produced by Minghu Culture over the years, even if Jin Han has a self-styled personality, he will hand over the last step to Li Qian to check.

Up to now, this has been considered the key to "Minghu products must be high-quality".

The movie "Autumn Fairy Tale", except for the rough selection of materials in the early stage, Li Qian did not interfere, and then every version made by Lu Lingxi was taken by Li Qian to go back and watch it, give advice, and then she was responsible for continuing to delete and refine - for a director, this step of the process is extremely critical, it allows a director to carry out a story "recreation" through this editing, through this selection and combination of materials , and a big hand like Li Qian personally checks and guides, for a newcomer film director like Lu Lingxi, it will make her benefit very much.

Of course, there will still be disputes.

Producers and directors quarrel with each other over a certain shot, and it is a common occurrence in any film company.

For example, the last time he went back, Lu Lingxi took out the so-called "final cut version", after Li Qian watched it, he was basically satisfied, but he still put forward a little revision for the arrangement and length of several shots, but Lu Lingxi insisted - Li Qian did not insist that Lu Lingxi must cut according to his own requirements, because the problem at that time was basically not a problem. To change or not to change, the impact is not great.

But the question has already been raised.

However, listening to the meaning of Lu Lingxi's words, obviously, she still hasn't changed.

Li Qian didn't care anymore, and simply laughed it off.

So he then changed the subject and asked, "Did you have fun going out for a spin?"

Also the last time I went back to watch the film, Li Qian saw Lu Lingxi staying in the editing room for several months, describing her as a little visibly haggard, so he suggested that she wait for the film to be cut, go out for a walk, travel, and relax. She was really obedient in this matter, and after finishing the finale, the film was locked and she went abroad directly.

This turn is half a month.

At this time, when Li Qian asked, her body slowly leaned on the backrest, and said with a smile: "Very good! Paris, Milan, and Madrid all went around, and I thought it was very interesting and took a lot of photos." I also went to Norway on purpose, it was really ...... That feeling of emptiness, it's so beautiful!"

Lu Lingxi is a master of photography!

Speaking of which, many of Li Qian and Fu Xuelong's photography techniques and skills were taught by her, so Li Qian's eyes lit up when he heard this, "I took a lot of photos?"

Lu Lingxi nodded, "Hmm." ”

Li Qian smiled: "Then you must wash it out and let me see it." I borrow your eyes to take me to see those cities and places from another angle. ”

This sycophant made Lu Lingxi very comfortable, and she was not modest, nodded and said, "Okay! ”

After a pause, she suddenly said: "When I was in Paris, I knew that your winery was in a grape region in the south of France, and I wanted to go shopping, but then I thought about it, I don't know anyone over there, and you are not there, if I want to stay for two days, I have to call you, forget it." ”

Li Qian smiled and said, "If you want to live, I'll ask someone to say hello over there when you go back, and pass your information over there, and you can go anytime you want to go in the future!"

Lu Lingxi smiled, glanced at him, and said after a while: "Then I'll thank you!"

Li Qian said with a smile: "No thanks! Find a way to win over you big directors and actors who have become popular, and try to envelop you, lest you always think about changing jobs, which is what I have been doing!"

Lu Lingxi laughed out loud when he heard this.

"Wrap me, just you?" she shook her head, looking like she wanted to laugh, "I don't feel when you hooked me!"

Li Qian shouted, "You said you wanted to make a movie, I don't care how busy I am, I obediently went to film for you, listen to your command, you said you want to live in my winery for a few days, I can't wait to quickly offer the winery both hands, whatever you want, I will give it to you if you want, this is not a cage?"

Listening to Li Qian's deliberately funny dedication, Lu Lingxi couldn't help laughing, she unscrewed the water bottle and drank saliva, and then said: "That's not a trap! It's all just a means for you to buy people's hearts!

Li Qian was speechless.

At this time, the two glanced at each other, as if they had thought of something in unison, and then they both fell silent - after a while, Lu Lingxi asked in a low voice: "I heard that the company is going to build a studio?"

Li Qian nodded, his expression became cold, and he said slowly: "Let's do it, the general trend is coming." I've never been a person who eats the old, so I follow the trend!"

Lu Lingxi thought of the rumors that she had heard from Qin Jingjing and Liao Min after coming back, especially "Li Qian deliberately suppressed Zhou Baoshan" and the like, but after hesitating, she still decided not to say it.

Not to mention that Li Qian must have his considerations in doing things, simply saying that there is a Qi Jie there, this kind of thing must have been considered by various considerations, she doesn't think that she has made two TV series, and pulled Li Qian to make a movie, which is enough to be qualified to have any power to make suggestions on the company's operation.

But at this time, Li Qian took the initiative to say: "I know that recently, there have been rumors in the company and the industry. said that I deliberately suppressed Feng Bicheng and Zhou Baoshan, and everyone felt that no matter from which level, if the company wanted to open a studio, they should be qualified. Feng Bicheng, I didn't suppress him, he took the initiative to ask for it, considering that their old man already has a studio, and the first batch of people can let him avoid the limelight without him, so I agreed. As for Zhou Baoshan...... I'm really trying to suppress him!"

After a pause, as if to start the conversation, Li Qian simply continued: "But I just hope that he can take this opportunity to calm down and think about what I said to him! I thought he would figure it out, but unexpectedly, he still chose to believe in himself!"

Speaking of this, he sneered, "As for what I said I was forcing him to change jobs, hehe, I don't know who deliberately spread this statement, but it has already reached my ears, so it can be seen that they are really holding back their energy to make up this matter." In fact, if it weren't for Zhou Baoshan's honesty, at least on the surface, and I would never have been willing to embarrass others, it would not have been their turn to jump up and down behind their backs!"

When he said this, Li Qian suddenly looked murderous.

Even Lu Lingxi, who has known him for almost nine years and has a lot of experience with each other, rarely sees him with such an expression - he has always been a humble and low-key person who is kind to others.

Suddenly, she reached out, patted his hand on the table, and said, "Don't be angry, it's not a big deal! Outsiders know he's an international superstar, but you know, he's just an empty shelf." ”

Li Qian glanced at her in surprise.

Then, he pretended not to see the little hand that Lu Lingxi put on his hand, sighed, took a puff of his pipe, spit out the billowing smoke, and said: "If he wants to change jobs, I will neither be surprised nor sad, I am just very sad, I deliberately ran over to persuade him that time, he actually didn't take it to heart at all!"

Lu Lingxi pursed his lips.

In the end, Li Qian still shook his head again and sighed, "My vision is too narrow, I can only see this piece in front of me, I really can't help it." ”

Lu Lingxi pursed his lips, smiled, and withdrew his hand.

Li Qian took another puff of cigarette, and then said, "Don't talk about him." Let's go and see!" As he spoke, he put away his cigarette case, put it in his pocket, and said, "Let's go, go back to the studio." ”

Lu Lingxi was stunned for a moment, and suddenly stopped him, "Hey, shouldn't you ask me why I'm here?"

Li Qian stopped and looked at her in surprise, "Aren't you here to visit the class?"

Lu Lingxi smiled helplessly, "Big boss, are you confused in filming? It's all June! Remind you, June!"

Li Qian was stunned, but immediately understood, and couldn't help but smile bitterly.

He sat down again and said, "Well, I really didn't think about it. "Autumn Fairy Tale" is about to be released, huh?

Lu Lingxi shrugged, "My film is so good, and there is a master to guide the post-editing, and you and Jingjing starred, you say, I will be afraid?"

Li Qian raised his eyebrows and laughed, "Then why did you come here this time?"

Lu Lingxi said: "Publicity! Publicity! I know you're busy, but take the time to send a blog or something, first help warm up the movie, and by the way, call on your fans and fans, okay?"

Li Qian nodded, "Of course it's no problem!"

After a pause, he said: "I'll go back and take time to write something, review the interesting things during the filming, send them out, and help the movie warm up first." As for publicity or anything, you know, whether I'm a director or an actor, I've never been involved in that. …… It's so grinding. ”

Lu Lingxi smiled: "I know! Others are afraid of not being famous, but you have always hated that you are too famous." I know!"

Li Qian laughed again when he heard this, and said: "Don't worry! Propaganda matters, how to run, how to run, we have a good relationship with various satellite TVs, whether you are good, Jingjing is good, and the relationship with fans is also very good, no one will deliberately embarrass you." As for the box office, don't worry about it, you can sell whatever you want!"

Lu Lingxi smiled and said, "With you, I'm not worried!"
