Chapter 508: Ambition
At noon, I had a working meal at Qinglong Special Effects Company and felt the food situation here.
The buffet is used here, which is very hearty and nutritious, probably because the staff here consume a lot of brains.
Huang Yixuan is very optimistic about the prospects of Qinglong Special Effects Company and is full of pride.
In fact, it was not easy for him, and almost all of his wealth was pressed on this company.
When I first started, I was struggling, begging people everywhere to pull business, and a small special effect required the staff to work overtime.
After suffering for a period of time, due to the low price and good quality, the business has finally gained a firm foothold in the industry, and the business has been relatively stable.
At this time, he became restless again, determined to make the company bigger and stronger, and went to the United States in person to recruit Yuan Anmin, a depressed special effects genius, and opened the road to the take-off of Qinglong Special Effects Company.
After having Yuan Anmin, a technical genius, Qinglong special effects have been strong all the way and successfully ranked among the forefront of the Chinese special effects industry, with good development prospects.
However, compared with foreign companies, the gap is still very large, so it can only take on some movies and TV series with small investment and special effects, and the profits are still not high.
Galaxy Entertainment's large capital injection has changed all this, and it has been proved that the power of capital is very terrifying, because it can make a company bigger and stronger in a short period of time.
The key thing is that Lin Qihua saw the bottleneck of the development of Qinglong's special effects, and helped bring back a large number of first-class special effects talents from Hollywood, realizing the simultaneous development of funds and talents, walking on two legs.
This also made the Qinglong special effects studio not develop unbalanced because of the entry of large sums of money, and the money was spent on the blade, breaking through many bottlenecks, and greatly improving its technical strength.
It is precisely because of this that Huang Yixuan is so confident when the great era of Chinese special effects development is coming.
"We must not only be the leading company in the Chinese special effects industry, but also the pathfinder who leads Chinese films and Chinese culture to go global.
Our purpose is not only to do a good job of special effects for the movie, but also to use our special effects to show our mythical characters, phoenixes and other creatures, as well as our big scenes such as the flood and the heavenly court.
To do the Oriental fantasy or Xianxia style, not to do the Western magic style, as long as we can come up with excellent works, we will definitely be able to achieve this goal. ”
"Mr. Huang has such courage and is worth learning from all of us. Lin Qihua stroked his palms and smiled, paying him the highest respect.
"The great development of the special effects industry means the great development of Chinese films, and the going out of Chinese films means that our special effects culture also goes out, and the two complement each other.
Therefore, the key is to do a good job in special effects, only we Chinese people can make special effects, which is the key to our foothold in the world. ”
Yuan Anmin said meaningfully.
"So, we're going to work together, aren't we?"
"Of course. ”

Leaving Qinglong Special Effects Company, Han Hongyu took Lin Qihua and his party to the location where he was doing post-production.
"Qinglong special effects, for our movie, it did take a lot of thought, every detail is meticulously crafted, the effect is very good, in terms of technology alone, it is not as good as Hollywood, but, in terms of effect, I think, it is already the top work in China. ”
Han Hongyu led everyone to sit down in the small conference room, expressing his satisfaction with the post-production of special effects.
"So, this is the necessity for us to inject Qinglong special effects, in Hollywood, everyone knows that the special effects are all uncles, you put the film here, put your requirements forward, and then, everything is up to me.
If you are not a big director, it is really difficult for them to make special effects according to their own ideas, they can do what they want, anyway, they can meet your requirements, as for the overall effect, I don't care at all.
If you're not satisfied, who cares about you, that's what it's like anyway, yes, they're like that, they're awesome, but to do special effects, you have to beg them, very helpless.
We invested in Qinglong Special Effects and became their shareholders, not to control them, but to be a part of them.
Let our films, also be theirs, inspire their sense of ownership, or rather, make them have to value our opinions, follow our ideas, and if you are not satisfied, you have to continue to change, there is nothing to say.
I believe that they have such a good attitude in front of us, but in front of the directors and producers of other films, they must be arrogant. ”
"That's true. Han Hongyu thought for a moment and nodded in agreement with Lin Qihua's statement, "I have to say that this approach of yours is a very unique method." ”
"In fact, it's not surprising at all, foreign countries are doing this, Hollywood film giants focus on the shooting of movies, but the entire film industry chain, so many links, are indispensable, and they can't fully control it.
Therefore, they basically adopt this model and become a partner in one of the links, winning profits while also ensuring the quality of their films.
We are also looking for such a model, Qinglong Special Effects Studio, is our first step, and the next step, we will seek more cooperation in other fields, which is a safe model. ”
"Anyway, I don't understand, I'm just responsible for making a good movie. Han Hongyu shook his head, "The post-editing is almost done, do you want to take a look?"
"Okay. Lin Qihua nodded, and walked into the editing room with him alone, the editor here is one of the three most famous editors in China, Yin Xingchen, known as the title of God Scissor, is very famous.
He is also a native of Xiangjiang, has been developing in the mainland all the year round, and is a good friend of Han Hongyu.
For a movie to become an excellent or even classic work, all aspects are indispensable, among which the post-editing, dubbing, and soundtrack are the most important parts.
A good edit can cut a bad movie into an ordinary movie, and a bad edit can cut a classic into a bad movie.
Therefore, every good editor is fragrant, and no one dares to despise them.
Lin Qihua also expressed his respect and gratitude to him, thanking him for his dedication to this movie.
Yin Xingchen didn't say much, nodded with Lin Qihua, and began to play the edited film.
At the beginning, it was a fierce fight scene, which was more exciting than Lin Qihua's impression, more in line with Sun Wukong's superhero identity, and the scene was full of visual impact.
As soon as the camera turned, it became a desert scene, long Changsha, with the desolate background music, and in an instant, it caught Lin Qihua's eyeballs.
"Very good camera feel. Lin Qihua glanced at Yin Xingchen with admiration, Han Hongyu controlled it well, and Yin Xingchen's level of scissors was higher.
The total length of the movie is a lot more than Lin Qihua expected, reaching 180 minutes.
"It turns out that according to your meaning, it is to be shortened a little, but we have to think about it, the plot must be explained clearly, the development is clear, the plot is rich, and the funny effect and fighting scenes must be guaranteed, and the progress of the relationship must be explained, so we have to lengthen the time. ”
Han Hongyu and Lin Qihua explained why they were edited like this.
Lin Qihua thought about it, it is true, the content, compared with the plot in his impression, has changed a little, especially the fight scenes and emotional scenes, which have been added a lot, in the case of ensuring a funny effect, this is the best choice.
After reading it roughly, there was no feeling of procrastination, the plot was very compact, there was no plot deliberately arranged for the sake of being funny, one link after another, plus high-quality picture quality, I couldn't find a reason to shorten the time.
"You are professional, since you think so, it must make sense, just do what you want, just do it. Lin Qihua nodded in agreement with their opinion, "Three hours is three hours, and we don't need to accommodate the cinema now, we still focus on the quality of the movie." ”
"Thank you for your support. Han Hongyu breathed a sigh of relief, during this time, the time and energy he spent was even harder than when shooting, but he was able to see the finished product come out and be satisfied, and his heart was also full of a sense of achievement.
Yin Xingchen glanced at Lin Qihua in surprise and nodded, "This movie, the needs of plot development, must be edited like this."
If you shorten the plot in front and speed up the pace, it's not impossible, but the funny effect is not so good, because many things complement each other in the back. ”
"I listen to you, this effect is very good, please work harder, think about the details again, and after combining it with special effects, I want you to check it." ”
"That's as it should be. Yin Xingchen nodded and agreed, "I also want to see if the strategy of commercialization and going out of the blockbuster you mentioned can be implemented smoothly." ”
"I can assure you of that. Lin Qihua laughed, "This movie, I am ready to promote to the United States, let them feel it, our own superhero movie." ”
"Then I look forward to your success. ”
"The final theme song is really good. Han Hongyu gave Lin Qihua a thumbs up, "It's just a microcosm of this movie." ”
"Thank you. Lin Qihua knew that what he said was the ending song he gave him before, "I also asked Master Yin to help edit a MV that can show the plot development of the whole movie, I think, this song, with this MV, will move many people, and it can also help the promotion of the movie." ”
"Okay, I know in my heart, this song is really good. Yin Xingchen agreed.
