On October 20, 1981, Jiang Ran's first film "Nightclub" was completed, and Jiang Ran held a finale banquet in his own small restaurant in the evening.

After Jiang Ran and Liu Liwei and other main behind-the-scenes personnel handled the various props, equipment and shooting materials used in the shooting, they hurriedly took the car to the Kong Kee Restaurant in Hollywood, most of the cast and crew had already arrived, and when they saw Jiang Ran, Liu Liwei and others arriving, they all greeted them.

"Ah Ran, you are finally here, just now they were still speculating whether you were stingy with the money for a meal, and you want to fulfill our appointment, I am explaining to Brother Zhaoming and Ah Fa that you must have something to delay, even if you are happy with the appointment of all of us, it must not be because you want to save money for a meal, Boss Jiang is bad at everything, but not bad at money. Chen Baixiang immediately went to Jiang Ran to play treasure tricks in front of Jiang Ran after Jiang Ran came in.

Liu Zhaoming, Chow Yun-fat and the others had speechless expressions, and before they could speak, Zhong Chuhong next to them said: "Brother Lak, you are so shameless, so many people in the hall didn't open their mouths just now, so you are spreading rumors everywhere that Ah Ran is stingy and doesn't want to invite us to dinner, so many of us have heard it." ”

"Ah Hong, you can't wronged me, I have such a good relationship with Ah Ran, how can I slander him?" Chen Baixiang hurriedly defended after hearing Zhong Chuhong's words, and then turned his head and said to Jiang Ran: "Ah Ran, we have known each other for so long, you know what I am as a person, how can I do something to hurt people behind my back?"

Jiang Ran patted Chen Baixiang on the shoulder, and said to him with an affirmative expression: "Yes, we have known each other for so long, and I believe in your character." ”

After Chen Baixiang heard Jiang Ran's words, he said to Zhong Chuhong with a proud face: "Ah Hong, what's the matter, as far as I have a relationship with Ah Ran, how can he believe your words, you can't wronged me." ”

"Yes, I believe in Brother Lat very much, he is a person who loves to speak ill of people behind his back, Ah Hong, you will not be surprised if you get along with Brother Lat for a long time in the future. Jiang Ran added beside him.

"Poof! Ha-ha! Ah Ran, you are really discerning! Brother Lak, I'm sorry, I didn't know that you were such a person at first, and I was a little fussed. Although Zhong Chuhong couldn't laugh straight, he was still mending the knife on the side.

Everyone else in the hall laughed together, except for Chen Baixiang. Jiang Ran smiled and said to everyone: "Okay, it was all a joke just now, Brother Lat is a very righteous person to his friends, I just mentioned the movie to him this time, and I didn't even ask about the script salary, so I came to help me." ”

Speaking of this, Jiang Ran smiled gratefully at Chen Baixiang, and then said: "Time flies so fast, more than two months have passed from the establishment of the film project to the official completion of the film today, I take this opportunity today to thank the whole crew, thank you for your hard work in the past two months, I am very honored to work with you." After today's finale banquet, our crew will be disbanded, I hope that we will all have the opportunity to cooperate in the future, and I also hope that everyone will work smoothly in the future and their careers will flourish. In addition, in the past work, if I have not done anything in place and offended you, then I will also take this opportunity tonight to compensate you, please bear with me. ”

Saying that, Jiang Ran bowed deeply to everyone, and then said: "Okay, don't say more, I hope everyone can eat and drink happily tonight, let's go." ”

The next morning, Jiang Ran slept until nine o'clock before getting up, rubbing his still swollen and aching head, Jiang Ran couldn't remember how he got to bed last night. At yesterday's finale banquet, almost everyone was toasting Jiang Ran's wine, and Jiang Ran himself was a little too excited because of the director's first movie.

After washing, Jiang Ran came downstairs, the restaurant had already begun to open, Jiang's mother saw Jiang Ran coming down, and while bringing Jiang Ran white rice porridge and other breakfast, she complained: "Ah Ran, you will drink less wine in the future, where will your body suffer from drinking like yesterday." ”

Jiang Ran said to Jiang's mother while drinking porridge: "I know Mom, I was mainly too happy yesterday, and it won't be like this in the future." ”

Jiang Mu smiled and said happily: "That's right, although career is important, body is important." ”

Jiang Ran had a breakfast full of motherly love in his restaurant, and drove to the company, where Liu Liwei had been waiting for him for a while.

"Mr. Jiang, how is it, has your body recovered? You drank too much last night, and I blame me for starting to be negligent, and it was a little late when I wanted to help you block the wine. Liu Liwei saw Jiang and said with a look of self-reproach.

Jiang Ran smiled and said to Liu Liwei: "I don't blame you, I was so happy yesterday that I drank too much and didn't control it." Then he sat down in the boss's chair, rubbed his head and asked, "Is the post-production connection ready?"

"Mr. Jiang rest assured, I have already contacted before the movie is finished, and I contacted Mai Zishan in terms of editing, and I originally wanted to contact the more famous Zhang Yaozong, but Zhang Yaozong's work has been full, but Mai Zishan has been engaged in editing since 77 years, and there is absolutely no problem with editing skills. Liu Liwei explained to Jiang Ran.

Jiang Ran was not familiar with the two of them, anyway, he would always be next to him when editing, so he said indifferently: "Then the editing will be handed over to Mai Zishan, what about the movie soundtrack?"

"I contacted Chen Qixun for the soundtrack. ”

"Chen Qixun, I heard that he seems to have set up a film company with the support of Princess Jin, how can he still come to help us make the soundtrack?" Jiang Ran had heard of Chen Qixun in his previous life, of course, mainly as a film director. When I was chatting with Tsui Hark some time ago, I heard Tsui Hark say that Chen Qixun got the financial support of Princess Jin to establish Yongjia Film Company.

"He's been making soundtracks, and this year he's scored more than 10 films. Liu Liwei knew that although Jiang Ran had more contact with the film industry now, he had a limited understanding of many people and things in the Hong Kong film industry, so he explained with a smile after hearing Jiang Ran's questions.

"Well, then you can arrange it, and officially start the editing work tomorrow, coordinate with Mai Zishan, and I will always follow up the editing work." Jiang Ran said this, suddenly thought of a question, and instructed Liu Liwei: "Our movies have product placement content requirements, which is different from other movies, you remember to ask the editorial department to mark the required advertising content in the script used by Mai Zishan, so as not to make omissions when getting editing." ”

"Okay, Mr. Jiang!"

"So be it. I can't stand the pain in my head, I'll go back and rest for a day today, and I'll work hard for you today. Jiang Ran rubbed his head with his hand and said to Liu Liwei with a painful face.

The next day, Jiang Ran met Mai Zishan in the editing room, "Mr. Mai, I am Jiang Ran, the director of the movie "Nightclub", and the editing of this movie will trouble you. Jiang Ran said politely to Mai Zishan after meeting.

"Director Jiang, you are so young, editing movies is originally my job, not to mention trouble, if your company needs to edit movies in the future, you can contact me at any time. Let's talk about your overall vision for the movie first, I have a good idea in mind. After a few polite words with Jiang Ran, Mai Zishan went directly to work.

Jiang Ran didn't talk nonsense, and directly told Mai Zishan about his idea of the whole movie, as well as the effect he hoped the movie would achieve, etc., and Jiang Ran kept talking for nearly half an hour.

Mai Zishan flipped through the script while listening to Jiang Ran's thoughts, and asked, "Director Jiang, I saw an advertisement in the script, I don't know what's going on?"

"Our company has product placement in this film, and this part has a contract, so please Mr. Mai must be merciful, this part of the content must be retained. ”

Mai Zishan's face was a little ugly, and he asked: "Then this will affect the smoothness of the film and the audience's perception." ”

Jiang Ran calmly explained: "You can rest assured, all advertisements are designed within the framework of the script, and I also have a special design for this part of the content when shooting, which will not affect the plot and viewing feeling." ”

"I hope so. Mai Zishan was still a little unhappy.

After Jiang Ran and Mai Zishan communicated on the script, the editing of the film began to proceed slowly in the quarrel between the two, and it was not until the end of October that the editing of the whole movie was officially completed, and the whole film was 100 minutes long after editing.

After the editing work was completed, nearly ten days passed, and on November 8, the other post-production of the film was also completed, so far, "Nightclub" was finally completed after nearly three months of long time, and then it was only waiting for the release and release.
