Chapter Twenty-Seven: Do Your Homework

The crew returned to Beijing, paid the remaining salary, and after eating a casual meal, it was time for them to go their separate ways. Only Liu Ye didn't seem to be addicted to the show, and he didn't want to end the show, so he stopped and asked happily: "Director, when will the movie be released after the movie has been filmed?" ”

Happy this time he didn't scold or beat, and hooked up with his shoulder with a pleasant face and said: "You will be able to play next year, you will wait to make a name for yourself in Chinese opera." ”

"That's a good feeling." Liu Ye began to look forward to it.

When Siqin Gaowa was leaving, she suddenly said: "Xiaokai, if there are any difficulties in the future release, call my aunt, maybe my old face can still play a www.biquge.info role in the Fun Pavilion." This is beyond her ability, and the moment an actor finishes the work, the work is basically over. In the entertainment industry, it is better to be less than nosy, and she doesn't care about filming on weekdays. Today, I also have a feeling, and I rarely make a promise.

Happy knew in his heart, smiled, and nodded solemnly. Not much to say. In the words of Siqin Gaowa: "No matter how much you say, it's all wrong." ”

When he returned home, the old man saw that his face was tanned, his black and white eyebrows were twisted vigorously, and he began to talk long and short. happily listened to his familiar Beijing accent with a bit of Jiangnan tactful accent, and his eyes were cordial, "I have a good foundation, and in a few months, I will be raised by your old man again." You said that every time I go out, I have to be nagged by you

"What are you doing when you grow up, and you don't see a daughter-in-law come back. You kid, you've been a little fart in my eyes all my life. Speaking of this, grandson, when will you leave a house for me, let me be in the coffin and be blinded......"

"Gott~!"

As long as you mention what happened after staying, happiness is completely out of line, and you raise your hands and surrender.

Back in the room, he sealed the film and prepared to leave it for three to five days, and then start work when the state was completely adjusted. I made myself a pot of tea, leaned comfortably on the chair, and then turned on the computer, and Bao's familiar avatar came into view, and said with a smile: "Bao, long time no see." ”

"Bao, see you every day."

“…… Why is it so familiar? Happy plucked his ears, "The old rule, look at the mail, start with the important first." ”

"Yes sir." The computer automatically turned the page, and several windows popped up, "You have received thirteen emails during this time. Three were from Japan, one from the United States, and the remaining nine were all from London, England. I've already investigated the identity of the other party, the other party's name is Gai? Richie, Chinese New Year's Eve, an advertising director, said he was going to buy your graduation script, and he has been emailing nonstop for days. ”

With a move in his heart, he happily put down the teacup, and pushed the swivel chair hard with his butt to look closely, "How much does the other party offer?" ”

Although there are thousands of Hollywood scripts, they are not worth much. I didn't think about it when I was happy, and I just walked out of the hall by writing a script. But this script is not an unknown commodity in the Hollywood Screenwriters Guild, but a graduation script that was happily selected and written. And in the USC graduation season script competition, he also won the first prize for script work. At that time, someone offered tens of thousands of dollars to buy, but he refused.

Ah Bao said in an unchanged voice: "Sir, the other party offered 20,000 pounds, but I don't think he can afford to pay this amount." Amex Bank revealed that his credit card had been in arrears for several months and had multiple bad credit histories. ”

happily pinched his chin, feeling quite weird in his heart.

Because the name of this book is "Crazy Big Smoking Gun", it is based on a movie called "Two Big Smoking Guns" in his memory. In the last life, the director of the movie was Gai? Ricky. I thought there was nothing wrong with him, but I didn't expect the chaos theory effect to be so effective, so I still pulled him out.

What to do? Am I going to be a good man and fulfill him?

"-!"

After only three seconds of hesitation, he took a seat and decided. He didn't know anything that didn't cover Ridge, "Bao, give the other party a return price, a fixed price of 200,000 pounds, and don't sell it for a cent." ”

If the other party can't afford to pay for it, let's shoot an advertisement honestly. Although Madonna is old and arrogant-promiscuous-sexual, the mature commotion is still quite scratchy, and the British don't want to marry a music queen in this life!

After this stubble was resolved, there was good news from Japan again.

Sakuragi has already approached several publishers on behalf of Happy, and the highest bidder is Shueisha Publishing House, who is willing to give a 10% share plus a 10 million yen license fee, and the base print run of each issue is 200,000 copies.

This is already quite a high price, and the average comic book author can get a maximum of 10%. But this obviously does not meet Happy expectations, because the serialization time of "Chess Soul" is still short, and the impact has not really been opened yet.

According to the calculation that "Weekly Shonen Jump" prints 30 pages of large-picture manuscripts every week, it will take more than three years for "Chess Soul" to be fully serialized. If there is a big fire, the cartoon will probably not start planning until a year later. The book is ready now. If you only talk about the remuneration, the manuscript fee of color pictures will increase by 50%. The monthly manuscript income is: 30 * 2900 * 4 = 348000 yuan. This money is transferred out of Japan to deduct part of the tax, and in China to pay individual income tax, in the end, it is about 200,000 yuan, and the annual income is about 2.4 million.

This amount of money is only enough for him to support the company.

The animation studio is a well-known money-swallowing machine, and without tens of millions of foundations, it can't become famous at all. Happy has been planned, the existing model of "Mountain and Sea Studio" has been set up, but the progress of the work is too slow, whether it is animation, computer, special effects talents, the best scale should be about 180~200 people.

I can't bear the help of the wolf, and if I want to achieve my career, I still have to spend it. He is also fed up with this progress, and with a team of more than a dozen people now, he can produce a complete 3D animated movie in the Year of the Monkey. Therefore, it is also advisable to start as early as possible to reserve talents. But for a team of 200 people, not to mention rent, water and electricity, computers, office equipment and other expenses, just one year's salary is enough for him to drink a pot. After doing so, he found that he was still a poor bastard...... You have to do your best to make money and make a lot of money.

Moreover, Japan's animation market is so big, and the animation royalties generated every year are tens of billions, so why don't you want to take a deep bite. In short, if you don't publish a single book, you can't make a fortune.

In this way, the answer to Sakuragi is simple: "Dissatisfied, drag, continue to talk." ”

……

After dealing with trivial matters, he found that his mind was now full of movies, and he couldn't be idle at all, so he simply continued to work.

Carefully check the bill, the filming took 37 days, which is neither long nor short. It could have been completed in a shorter time, but it was the first time to take charge of the guide tube, and the ability was still lacking.

At the beginning, the budget they made for the movie was 450,000~500,000, but after filming, they couldn't control the floodgates, and Bai Xiaoya was always advised. If you have nothing to do, you complain about spending too much, although sometimes it's annoying to listen to, but if you don't have her, you really don't know how much it will cost.

Rao is like this, after the filming, he also overspent as much as 550,000 yuan. If you add the post-recording, soundtrack, editing, printing or something, you have to run to 600,000.

And the completion of the filming of the movie does not mean that it is all OK at one qiē, even the singing has the saying of "ten minutes on stage, ten years of work off the stage", if a movie wants to be played on the big screen, it must go through at least five times of writing: the first time is the screenwriter; The second time is the director and actor, the third time is the cinematographer, the fourth is the editing, and the fifth is the sound synthesis, each writing infuses the unique thinking qualities of a unique art into the film.

So, now it's time to do your homework.

Editing is the top priority, and different editing techniques can even determine the quality of a movie. The film footage, hundreds or even hundreds of hours of film footage, is selected, assembled, and then compiled into a smooth film, and the editing can be said to be the second creation of the whole work. The combination of lenses and lenses, the sequence of lenses before and after, the selection of the length of the shots, etc., each step is different, and the resulting movie effect will be completely different.

If it's a blockbuster, you also need to consider dubbing, soundtrack, color, and a whole host of other things. Therefore, the general post-production work is very cumbersome, and the more beautiful the results come up, the more time it takes to process.

I happily learned editing, and I also have an original work in my mind that can be compared as a reference, but I still hope that there is a professional editor with high quality and technical expertise to complete this work together.

Because he knows that a professional editor, if he can understand the director's intention, will be able to better grasp the rhythm of the whole film, which is not the same as a novice who has no original comparison but no editing experience.
