Entering mid-April, Zhang Jin became even busier, soaking in the editing studio of Xinyi City for 8 hours during the day, cooperating with the two editors in the post-production of "The Raid".

Speaking from the heart, every time he sees the editor cut out a certain scene, Zhang Jin has a feeling of reluctance, but there is no way, a movie is only a hundred minutes, if it is too long, the audience is tired of watching, and the theater will not agree.

Fortunately, after the first day of running-in, the editor finally knew the lens style that Zhang Jin needed, and the cut out of the picture met Zhang Jin's requirements.

After two days and two nights of busyness, the sample film was finally released, and as the screenwriter, half of the director, and starring in the film, Zhang Jin was the first to watch it.

After opening it once, Zhang Jin found that the finished film was quite different from the "Raid" in his memory.

This difference is not only caused by the change of directors and actors, but also in terms of overall quality.

First of all, the actors in the original version are almost the same, whether they are police or criminals, their size, body, costumes and other things are not highly recognizable, and they are filming in a dark corridor, giving people the feeling that there are people everywhere, and they can't tell who is who during group scenes.

It wasn't until the police force was wiped out that there were only a few main actors left, and the audience couldn't tell who was who.

But in Zhang Jin's version, the height and body shape of the actors are completely clear at a glance, even if they are wearing the Flying Tigers equipment, the audience can tell at first glance who is the captain and who is the leading actor, and the costumes of those criminals are also colorful, and they look like they are out of the refugee camp.

The second change is the director's style, compared with the original ghost director, the shots under the guidance of Du Qifeng are cleaner and purer, especially the gunfire shots at the beginning, Lao Du plays long shots, close shots, close-ups, and slow motion very skillfully, and Zhang Jin even sees a few traces of "Gunfire" in it.

Du Qifeng's style is beginning to take shape, which is a good thing for Zhang Jin.

Although the golden age is full of flowers, catalyzed by huge profits, filmmakers chase me on the way to grab money, that film became popular, and immediately got together to make copycat films, for a long time, the screen was full of various versions of "Little Brother" and "Female Ghost", and then played this type of film badly, so that the audience should not want to watch it.

And in the golden age, there are a few more style directors, which will expand the scope of the market, of course, Zhang Jinzhubi has no idea of being a savior, because this idea is too painful, no matter how you toss, you can't stop the pace of Hong Kong Can's death.

Zhang Jin took advantage of this time to make money, and after saving enough capital, he went to the north to develop, after all, after 97, with the increase of national strength, the advantages of Hong Kong Island as an open window gradually weakened, and the domestic film and television industry also began to exert force, with a bunch of real money and a senior team, it is the right road to make a fortune in the north!

The completion of the first film means that Zhang Jin is one step closer to his dream.

At noon, Zhang Jin invited two editors to have a big meal and stuffed two red envelopes, not much money, 5,000 Hong Kong dollars each, to thank them for their hard work during this time.

The two of them were pleasantly surprised, and said that Boss Zhang would take care of the business more in the future, and even said that they could avoid the pumping of Xinyi City, and it was okay to help privately.

The film industry involves a variety of actors, costumes, props, photography, lighting, sets, music, recording, editing, etc., and hundreds of people often participate in a movie, and the behind-the-scenes personnel earn very little.

One of these two guys is called Su Shichen, and the other is Xu Rui, who has been working in the editing studio of Xinyi City for three years, and the monthly salary is only 3,000 yuan.

Especially Xu Rui, who just became a house slave last month, and seeing that the loan repayment is imminent, he is trying to make money.

As soon as Zhang Jin made a move, it was 5,000 oceans, and the boss of such a scene was a once-in-a-century encounter in the industry, Xu Rui couldn't help but feel tempted and said: "Brother Jin, do you want someone in your company?" ”

Zhang Jin was stunned for a moment and immediately understood the other party's intentions, "Don't hide it from the two, Jinlong is still only a studio scale, but in a month, the studio framework will be fully established, and it will definitely recruit people at that time. ”

Xu Rui glanced at Su Shichen and found that the other party's eyes were also flashing with golden light, knowing that he was also moved, so he said, "I don't know the treatment......"

"The starting price is 5,000, and you are allowed to take out private work, but you need to pay an equipment rental fee, and if you can get a prize for the cut film, you will be able to adjust the salary according to the situation."

"Oooh!" Xu Rui's head is connected, like a chicken pecking rice, and the basic salary of 5,000 is worthy of our craft.

And it is allowed to take private work, you must know that Xinyicheng is expressly forbidden to take private work, and it is found that two months' salary will be deducted at a time, obediently, this boss is simply the conscience of the industry!

Xu Rui was just about to agree, but Su Shichen directly grabbed and said, "Then we will wait for the boss to recruit you." ”

It didn't take much effort to recruit two editors, Zhang Jin felt that his luck was still quite bullish, if this wave of luck lasted longer, it would undoubtedly be a more ideal situation to be able to fight a bloody way under the cover of the big killer of "God of Gamblers".

……

In the office building of "Jin Weekly", Zhang Jin held a typewriter and squeezed into the corner of the office to type the script of "The Saint of Gambling", Chen Shaohua sat on the chair of the office, and the crackling typing disturbed her frequent frowns.

"Master, how many more do you have to finish?"

Hearing the apprentice's slightly complaining tone, Zhang Jin sighed and said, "Five minutes." ”

Chen Shaohua sighed, got up and brewed two cups of coffee and came in, one was placed next to Zhang Jin, and one was sipped by himself, and at the same time released harassment tactics, "Master, the studio's first movie is about to be released, are you considering renting an office building?" ”

"Disgusted with me?" Zhang Jin's subordinates kept fighting, and said while fighting: "In this case, let's take the time to rent the office building opposite, and we will continue to be neighbors." ”

"Okay." Chen Shaohua said happily when he heard this: "If you continue to be busy, I will contact the property management." ”

As long as he is interested, Chen Shaohua is extremely efficient, grabbing the phone in a hurry, and after a while, the property manager will come to the door in person with the contract, and wait for Zhang Jin to review the script of "The Saint of Gambling", and the contract will be signed.

"Well, we're neighbors from now on." Chen Shaohua handed over the contract, playfully stretched out his little hand and said, "New neighbor, take care of me in the future." ”

"Take care of me." Zhang Jin held the girl's little hand and didn't let go, "What's that, the new neighbor will help me photocopy the script." ”

"Humph! Get it yourself! Chen Shaohua withdrew his little hand and said: "How can there be such a thing as you, I am also a president on a fake vacation, not a little secretary who runs errands for you." ”

"Okay, I'm going to find a long, beautiful little secretary running errands." Zhang Jin took the script and walked out.

"Hey, I'll do it." Chen Shaohua snatched the script and said fiercely: "I must be responsible for recruiting people in the studio, so as not to get some fox spirits to spoil the office environment." ”

Zhang Jin smiled and said, "You have the final say." ”

Chen Shaohua nodded with satisfaction and said, "Will you go to the test screening of "God of Gamblers" in the evening? ”

"No, no." Zhang Jin shook his head.

"But what about movie reviews?"

"Let the film review team below write it, and I'll review it in the end, hey, eighty percent of you have to go to bed after twelve o'clock tonight, it's really terrible."

"God of Gamblers" was filmed by all the original crew, and the script was written by himself, but the time was only a year in advance, even if he didn't have to go to the theater to watch the test screening, Zhang Jin could write a film review with his eyes closed.

In this case, I went to watch a yarn and prepare for the release of "Raid" at home.
