There is only one night of drunkenness, and drunken dreams can only be done once, and after waking up, you have to fight for reality.

Even if he was drunk and talked to Liu Tao a bunch of messy things that he didn't even remember, Mai Xiaoyu had no time to be distracted.

The completion of the movie does not mean the end, and there are still hard film and television post-production zuò waiting for him.

Fortunately, he is not fighting alone, he also has a comrade-in-arms Huang Lei.

The company of film and television post-production zuò was introduced by Huang Lei, and the relationship was good after working together, and the level of character was trustworthy.

With this relationship, the price is very fair, and the other party dispatched people to work overtime for post-production in accordance with the requirements of Mai Xiaoyu and Huang Lei.

Editing and connecting shots, special transitions, fading in and out, and special effects in and out, adding text and sound...... These take time.

During the post-production period, Mai Xiaoyu received a call from South Korea, and it was Yu Xiaoxing.

The first sentence of this product shocked Mai Xiaoyu.

"Boss, there's something wrong with My Sassy Girlfriend. ”

"What's the problem?"

"It's too fast. ”

From preparation to release, a film goes through shooting, film and television post-production, publicity, distribution, and release.

This is a complete operation cycle that takes time to complete.

Generally speaking, it is possible for a large zuò to take a year or two, or even three, five or seven years, and for a small zuò to take several months.

However, "My Sassy Girlfriend" was completed in late September, and the post-production was completed in early October, and it is currently entering the publicity period and is scheduled to be released in November.

This kind of speed is too fast!

"It's too rushed!"

Mai Xiaoyu is one of the investors, but he is not involved in the specific things of the film, which is stipulated in the contract.

IHQ and the crew mistakenly believed that Xiao Xing was Mai Xiaoyu's spokesperson and would report the latest progress of the film to Mai Xiaoyu at any time, so they did not specifically notify Mai Xiaoyu that it would be released next month.

And Mai Xiaoyu has been busy filming "I Believe" recently, so he has no time to contact Xi Xiaoxing, and he only learned the release date today.

Conventional propaganda methods, more than a month is certainly not enough.

It's not "I Believe", Mai Xiaoyu decided to adopt unconventional publicity methods, limited by timeliness, he must hurry up, and while the publicity stunt has not expired, it will be released in theaters as much as possible.

"Hurry, boss, this movie is too fast, not normal!"

Worried that Mai Xiaoyu didn't understand, Xi Xiaoxing specially took the classic "A Chinese Ghost Story" from the last century as an example.

During the filming of "A Chinese Ghost Story", the crew filmed a passionate love scene between Zhang Guorong and Wang Guxian. The scene was filmed for three days, and finally ...... It was sheared, and no hair remained.

To give this example, Xiao Xing just wanted to sue Mai Xiaoyu. If the total number of shots shot in a movie is 100, then after post-editing, the number of shots after release may not even be half.

The most exaggerated is "Terminator 2", Lao Ka shot and processed more than 1 million feet of film, and the final release version was not even 1%.

This is also one of the reasons why a two-hour movie can take several months or even longer to produce zuò.

"Why are you telling me this?"

Mai Xiaoyu was busy with the post-production of "I Believe", and he didn't have time to listen to Xiaoxing's popular science.

"Boss, don't you think screenwriter Ah Zheng is very strange?"

A movie, the same script, different directors will shoot different effects.

In the same way, different editing methods will also cut out different effects.

However, the script "My Sassy Girlfriend" created by Ah Zheng does not have such a situation.

Because - fine!

You don't need the director's personal style, and you don't need the editor's unique approach, you just need them to follow the storyboard script and turn the content into the picture.

Whether it is a director, photographer, prop master, costume designer, etc., or a film and television post-production personnel, they have become ordinary workers on the assembly line, and only execution is emphasized.

This feeling made director Guo Zairong very unhappy.

During the filming, he added some shots according to the content of the script and combined with his own conceptual style, trying to leave his own style imprint in the film.

However, when he waited for the editing, he found that the shots he added were all in vain, and the best effect was to design according to Ah Zheng's script.

The most amazing thing is that in Ah Zheng's script, there is no superfluous shot, and there is no "waste" phenomenon that all movies such as "A Chinese Ghost Story" cannot avoid in the shooting.

Guo Zairong once sighed that if it was the era of film films, this alone would save the crew a lot of money budget.

Because of this, the filming speed of "My Sassy Girlfriend" is fast, and the post-production of film and television is also very fast, which is staggeringly fast.

It's not a good thing to be too fast and too alternative, and IHQ has doubts about the movie.

Guo Zairong can't answer this question, and no one in the film industry can answer it.

So IHQ decided to shorten the publicity time, increase publicity efforts, and release it in advance.

Xiao Xing plans to stay in South Korea for a while longer, just to see the box office results of "My Sassy Girlfriend" after its release.

If the grades are not satisfactory, he will return to China immediately without saying anything...... That Ah Zheng must not let go!

For a movie of the same system, other people's scripts take half a year and release two films a year, while Ah Zheng's script is so concise and energy-efficient that three or four films can be released in a year...... This Nima is the hen that lays golden eggs, and it must be circled to the company no matter what!

You're the hen!

The early release of "My Sassy Girlfriend" is a foregone conclusion, and Mai Xiaoyu no longer insists on it.

He also wanted to know how the box office would be after the release and whether it could help the promotion of "I Believe", so he took advantage of the situation to respond to Xiaoxing, and then continued to invest in the post-production of "I Believe" with Huang Lei.

"I Believe" is different from "My Sassy Girlfriend", but it is based on "Old Boy" as a framework, adding a lot of plot to it, expanding the length of 42 minutes to about two hours.

Therefore, Huang Lei will not cause Guo Zairong's unhappiness.

Fortunately, the plot is relatively simple, the special effects are limited, and there are not many difficult shots. With the concerted efforts of the cast and crew, the shoot took 32 days to complete, and the post-production didn't take much time.

Initial cut, formal editing, song selection, special effects recording, dubbing and synthesis......

After nearly two weeks of hard work, at the end of October, the post-production of "I Believe" was completed, and I passed the juvenile period of the film and entered adolescence - publicity!

The life of the film belongs to the infant period before it is completed, the post-production zuò is the juvenile period, the propaganda is the youth period, and the distribution is the adult period.

And in this life, there are still three levels to pass.

The first level is project approval, the second level is content review, and the third level is technical review.

Before the film can be released, it is necessary to obtain a public screening permit.

It is the green background faucet logo at the beginning of the film, which is written with "Public Screening Permit" and the electric review number, commonly known as the dragon mark, which is also regarded as the "birth permit" of the movie.

After watching the sample, Huang Lei was full of confidence: "Maizi, I'll get the birth permit, and the publicity depends on you, don't waste everyone's hard work." ”
