Chapter 197: Keep busy

Li Dong and Lao He were really frightened, when the two came here for the first time, there were less than 100 people, and they were still snubbed.

But today, there are hundreds of them, and the screening hall of the Xinhua Song and Dance Troupe is full, and there are still many people standing in the aisles on both sides.

Moreover, several leaders of the Propaganda Department of the Ministry of Military Affairs came, and when they saw Li Dong coming, they personally stood up to greet them, and their positions were next to several main leaders.

Everyone is full of expectations for Li Dong's new works.

In fact, they all know very well that it is simply unrealistic to create two classic works in such a short period of time.

Even so, they still hope that Li Dong's works today can be as classic as the previous two songs.

Fortunately, these tracks copied by Li Dong from his previous life, any one of them can be called classics, at least extremely good music.

Due to the rush of time, several pieces were recorded in the recording studio of Pujiang Conservatory of Music.

Moreover, the symphony orchestra and choir, composed of students and some teachers, are not as good as they should be.

But the majestic music still made everyone excited.

When the four songs were played, all the people in the screening hall of the Xinhua Song and Dance Troupe stood up, and the warm applause continued, and everyone was once again shocked by these epic music.

Originally, the four pieces that Li Dong brought this time were to let the two directors of the Military Art Center select two of them.

Whoever ever thought that the other two tunes were also requisitioned by the Propaganda Department of the Ministry of Military Affairs.

Of course, Li Dong has no opinion, the activities for the 300th anniversary of the founding of the army carried out by the Imperial Military Department are about to begin.

Now the musicians of the Chinese Empire dream that their works will be selected, which is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.

Once the work appears in the event of the 300th anniversary of the founding of the army, his status in the imperial music scene will definitely be improved by several grades.

Because there are so many excellent music works that have emerged from this solicitation activity, even composers and big-name musicians who have been famous in the empire for many years will only have one or two shortlisted songs at most.

And whether there is an off-site factor in whether their works can be selected, it is unknown.

But no one thought that a little-known young man would beat all six works shortlisted.

Of course, Li Dong didn't think about it that much, although he knew that it would help him to a certain extent, but he didn't realize what it meant to him.

After Li Dong's four works were affirmed by the military, he devoted himself to the arduous production work, and in the future, he will cooperate with the Xinhua Song and Dance Troupe to record these songs.

At the same time, Li Guangnan and the team sent by Zhenghua Entertainment also began to work Ling Xue's new album.

Although Li Dong doesn't have to worry about it, he has to go over every few days to see it, and he has to listen to each song carefully after recording.

After all, this album is related to the future of the music studio, and Li Dong still can't let go.

Huang Peiren knew that Li Dong was in Kyoto, and he also called twice in three days, which made Li Dong very annoyed.

In desperation, Li Dong will also take time to go over once a week, sit with Huang Peiren, Lao Lu and others to study the script, as well as the preparation of the new film, the choice of roles and other things.

For more than ten days, Li Dong kept running back and forth in three places, and was tortured to death.

Fortunately, the two recording studios are responsible for Li Guangnan and Lao He, and there is also the help of Zhenghua Entertainment's team and professionals from Xinhua Song and Dance Troupe, which makes the production of the two recording studios very smooth.

And the film crew is only in the preparatory stage, Lao Huang used his connections behind the film and television industry to quickly form a crew, and is currently actively preparing for the filming of the movie.

Because more funds have been absorbed, the crew of this play is not shabby,

Professionals are responsible for work such as assistant directors, executive directors, cinematographers, art directors, lighting engineers, field managers, actors, actors, actors, editors, special effects compositors, colorists, costume directors, props directors, etc.

Li Dong doesn't have to wear multiple hats, he no longer has to be responsible for the management of drama affairs in the crew, and he is busy with those things like eating, drinking, and Lazar every day.

Although this drama is a multi-party investment, Lao Huang is not only the producer, but also the producer himself.

Not only that, Li Dong and Lao Lu not only served as screenwriters, but also served as assistant producers.

Moreover, the executive producer, the crew leader and other key positions in the crew, Lao Huang chose his former descendants to serve, anyway, he must be someone he trusts.

In this way, the crew is composed of Huang Peiren, Li Dong, and Lao Lu, plus two professors from Kyoto Film Academy, and these two professors are also Lao Huang's classmates.

A film is actually a very painstaking process from preparation to shooting, post-production, and final release.

Including the selection and reading of scripts, the selection and cooperation of actors, and the search for producers and investors.

Then you have to complete the storyboard design, art design, scene survey, set up the crew, complete the director's explanation, conduct pre-rehearsals, and then go to the actual shooting.

During the filming process, it is necessary to arrange positioning, repeatedly modify the creativity, play on the spot, push down and start over, on-site DIT, costume preparation, props preparation, makeup preparation, actor preparation, lighting preparation, photography preparation until the last shout Action!

Final post-production, including rough cuts, fine cuts, color grading, special effects compositing, mixing tracks, soundtracks, and editing trailers.

After the filming of the film is completed, it is time for the distribution and promotion of the film, including marketing, promotion, hype and other work, and negotiate and communicate with the theater chain to ensure the film's scheduling as much as possible.

Fortunately, Lao Huang and Lao Lu are both veterans of the rivers and lakes, who have been in this circle for decades, and both have rich connections and resources.

These things, which are very cumbersome in Li Dong's eyes, are not a problem at all in their eyes, and they set up a team in a short period of time and formed a crew of more than 200 people.

And each department is an expert with rich experience, and the only layman in the entire crew may be Li Dong.

Of course, Lao Huang knew about these situations, but he still asked Li Dong to join the group, the main purpose was to let him accumulate experience in the crew and complete the transformation from rookie to old bird as soon as possible.

Wong's idea for the future is not to set up a film studio, but to form an independent film company.

He needs Li Dong's screenwriting talent, and he needs the wild ideas in his head.

Huang Peiren, who has many years of experience as a director, knows very well that what a good movie needs most is an excellent script.

If he doesn't have an excellent script, no matter how good his directing skills are, he won't be able to make a good movie.
